Even as he was drained mentally and physically, Yi Yun was in an ethere state, where he made progress bit by bit.
The light within Yi Yun's heart grew brighter the longer he endured. It constantly expanded and all the blurred trajectories that were like slashes in the void slowly became clearer.
He even felt that the space in his body was slowly expanding outwards, with the pain his body was experiencing.
Yi Yun felt a surge of joy, but at the same time, he knew that he had been pushed to his limits physically.
The moment he couldn't keep up physically, he would definitely fall out of that profound state…
Fortunately, Lin Xintong had left many bone relics for him before leaving. Yi Yun ate another bone relic.
The warm energy flowed within his body.
Yi Yun's body was wet from sweat!
Yi Yun had already remained inside the array for two hours!
The Jing state scions watched till their eyes saw a blur.
Yi Yun's movements did not change. They had foolishly watched with their necks craned for two hours to the point of throwing up.
"Is there any meaning to this?" Someone protested!
But when they looked at the Divine Capital's General, Yan Menglong, he was still stroking his chin and watching Yi Yun with interest.
They did not know how the same set of moves that had lasted so long could be interesting.
As the Jing state scions were about to lose their patience, the scion in charge of controlling the array was falling asleep. But suddenly, they heard something that made them excited.
"Add…one more level!" Yi Yun opened his mouth. He said it with difficulty and his voice was a little hoarse. It gave people the impression that he was nearing his limit.
He said those words while dripping in sweat.
"Making it more difficult? He's finally making it more difficult!"
The Jing state scions who were fighting back their heavy eyelids were suddenly refreshed. Great, Yi Yun is finally preparing to challenge the fifteenth level of difficulty.
The scion in charge of controlling the array licked his lips excitedly as he pressed down on the fifteenth crystal.
You're finished!
They brightened their eyes, as they eagerly waiting to see Yi Yun suffering serious injuries after getting hit by the Frost Metal Blood Balls.
"Weng!"
The Frost Metal Blood Balls roared. Due to the high-speed friction in the air for two hours, each blood pearl was glowing red from the heat. The damage done from such blood pearls was imaginable.
Song Zijun's face had a tinge of puzzlement and anticipation. He wanted to see what Yi Yun's limit was.
Suddenly, Song Zijun's pupils constricted. He noticed that in the middle of the array, there was a weird change in Yi Yun's movements.
Yi Yun's movements had been slow and they were made with great difficulty. It seemed like he was about to be hit by the Frost Metal Blood Balls at any time.
But suddenly, Yi Yun's movements suddenly became fast again. It was like his body had dumped a pile of weight, causing his body to suddenly explode with frightening strength and agility.
Shadows appeared around his body and the array seemed to be filled with Yi Yun's shadow.
He had reduced the Flowing Mercury Gown's weight to the lowest!
Suddenly, Yi Yun's movements were faster by at least 30%
"Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!"
Yi Yun avoided all fifteen blood pearls!
The blood pearls reversed and shot back. Yi Yun tapped his toes and avoided them again. His movements were fluid. Compared to the fourteenth level of difficulty, his movements were more harmonious and relaxed. Not a single blood pearl could touch Yi Yun's sleeves.
"What!?"
The people were stunned. How did Yi Yun suddenly increase his speed?
The Jing state scions were in disbelief. Even the sons of the vast wilderness were confused.
Was Yi Yun withholding his strength previously? But it didn't seem so. Every action of his looked like he was at his limits. The sweat and the vein that appeared on his forehead was proof.
"Interesting!" Yan Menglong, who had been watching Yi Yun with interest, laughed suddenly.
Within the array, Yi Yun's eyes flashed with a strange excitement. His body was still covered in sweat, but his body was much more relaxed.
The restraint on his body had been reduced significantly. By reducing the Flowing Mercury Gown's weight, it undoubtedly allowed Yi Yun's suppressed body potential to burst out.
It was just nice to tackle the fifteenth level!
Hum! Hum! Hum!
The Frost Metal Blood Balls howled in the air as it formed tearing winds that could be seen with the naked eye.
The fierce winds raged everywhere.
And Yi Yun was like a sea swallow shuttling easily across a rough storm!!
The people watching it turned dumbstruck. This wasn’t going according to the script!
Wasn't Yi Yun supposed to get seriously injured after being hit by the blood pearls at the fifteenth difficulty level?
The Jing state scions were baffled. If they did not see the Frost Metal Blood Balls speed increase with their own eyes, they would have thought that the array had malfunctioned.
At that moment, Yi Yun said another set of words that made all of them drop their jaws.
"Add another level, sixteenth level!"
Yi Yun's voice was not loud. It was not clear amidst the blood pearls screeching across the air. But it still entered their ears, stunning them greatly!
They were all speechless!
Is he mad!?
"I'll cordon your craziness and let you continue your swagger. I'll make you know the power of the sixteenth difficulty level. Do you really think you are on par with Young Master Zijun?" The scion that was controlling the array fiercely pressed the sixteenth crystal.
Suddenly, the entire array was covered in flashes as the sixteen Frost Metal Blood Balls shot wantonly. The surrounding crowd couldn't help but take a few steps back.
The sixteenth level placed tremendous pressure on Yi Yun!
Every Frost Metal Blood Ball was no different from a shooting star. It put immense pressure on Yi Yun's body and mind.
These Frost Metal Blood Balls would collide with one another now and then, making them fly helter–skelter, catching people off-guard.
The Frost Metal Blood Balls constantly reduced Yi Yun's maneuverable space.
Buzz——
Yi Yun's ears were buzzing as his heart rate increased. His blood was surging at an extreme speed.
"Cha!"
A blood pearl brushed past Yi Yun's waist. His flying fish robe had been ripped open!
The sixteenth level was clearly above Yi Yun's limit.
Ha!"
The Jing state scions exhaled. Finally, this kid could no longer hold on.
They did not expect Yi Yun to hold back, making them underestimate him. But, he was still inferior to Young Master Zijun!
"Cha!"
Another beam flashed by as Yi Yun's flying fish robe's sleeve was torn apart. A strand of blood flew out as Yi Yun's arm had been injured!
The Frost Metal Blood Balls moved too quickly at the sixteenth difficulty level. The fierce force winds ripped the flying fish robe as easily as it was tearing paper.
With a few Frost Metal Blood Balls flying towards Yi Yun with no room for him to dodge, it would be difficult for Yi Yun to avoid them!
At that instant, Yi Yun dodged and jumped out of the array!
"Pa! Pa! Pa!"
The blood pearls hit the empty space he had left behind!
"Huh!?"
Seeing Yi Yun leave the array, the Jing state scions were disappointed.
"This kid is too cunning!"
They had wished to see Yi Yun beaten to a pulp, but since he had given up, there was nothing left for them to see.
"Brother Yi. Good for you!"
The sons of the vast wilderness cheered. Although Yi Yun had only managed to last ten seconds at sixteen levels of difficulty and he had clearly lost to Song Zijun, it was applaudable for him to reach that stage.
A youth that came from the vast wilderness had suppressed a group of scions, and he was not much weaker than their best.
It was something to be proud of!
Today, the sons of the vast wilderness had proven themselves and also proven the glory of the vast wilderness.
"Brother Zhang, you certainly selected a good seedling." Big Ear Liu said from the bottom of his heart as he patted Zhang Tan's shoulders.
At that moment, the corner of his eye was on Yi Yun. He noticed that the kid had taken off his flying fish robe.
The torn flying fish robe had been thrown messily on the ground by Yi Yun, but its removal revealed his undershirt. It was a shining shirt that looked like silk veil.
"Sorry, I want to take my clothes off," said Yi Yun as he wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Take off your clothes? Is it too hot from the workout?"
A few Jing state scions exchanged looks as they were rendered speechless. Yi Yun was weird. As a warrior, what was a bit of heat? One just needed to circulate Yuan Qi and the sweat would all evaporate immediately.
But country bumpkins probably manned the fields bareback, so they could understand.
But when Yi Yun took off his shirt, Song Zijun, who had been calm all along, even when Yi Yun began the sixteenth level of difficulty, had a sudden change in expression!
Yan Menglong's eyes also lit up; though he continued stroking his chin, he was stunned.
"Flowing Mercury Gown!" Yan Menglong was shocked!
What?
Some people were confused and looked curiously at Yan Menglong. For a person like Yan Menglong to lose his composure meant that it was something special.
"Flowing Mercury Gown? Was that the shirt Yi Yun took off?" The Jing state scions looked curiously towards the shirt in Yi Yun's hands. Besides it being thin, there was nothing special about it.
"Could this be…" Song Zijun looked incredulously at the Flowing Mercury Gown in Yi Yun's hands. "This is the mystic grade three Flowing Mercury Gown from the Lin family! It's a treasure to train one's movement and strength! It could be bought at auctions, but the price is so high to the point that there are no buyers most of the time."
"Mystic grade three Flowing Mercury Gown can change its weight from ten cauldrons to a thousand cauldrons according to the wearer's preference. Not only that, it will restrict a person's movement. Every movement while wearing it takes a lot of effort. Previously, while in the array… you were always wearing that…" Song Zijun's voice trembled. He had worn something similar before, but it wasn't made by the Lin family, but he was very familiar with the Flowing Mercury Gown.
What the hell?
The Jing State Young Masters Faction were dumbfounded upon seeing Song Zijun lose his composure.
All their ears echoed were the words "change its weight from ten cauldrons to a thousand cauldrons!"
Ten cauldrons? Even the lightest was ten cauldrons!?
Is he talking about that shirt?
Yi Yun had been demonstrating Minute Subtlety while wearing a ten cauldron heavy Flowing Mercury Gown while inside the Frost Metal Blood Balls array?
This… must be a joke!
The light within Yi Yun's heart grew brighter the longer he endured. It constantly expanded and all the blurred trajectories that were like slashes in the void slowly became clearer.
He even felt that the space in his body was slowly expanding outwards, with the pain his body was experiencing.
