nThe power in that punch just now was enough to match his own.

n“What? Ninth Stage of the Heavenly Realm?” Gu Zhicheng and the others watching on were all shocked.

nAfter reaching the Heavenly Realm, each subsequent stage represents a substantial gap, particularly beyond the sixth stage where the disparity becomes significant.

nSome people remain stuck at a certain stage for years without being able to advance.

nIt was not that they lack talent, as every cultivator who can reach the Heavenly Realm had exceptional talent.

nBut even those with great talent in cultivation often get stuck at a certain stage without any progress.

nFor example, if there were one thousand Heavenly Realm experts in the country of Chengyuan, 70% would be below the fourth stage, while the fourth to sixth stages would account for 25%, and only 5% would be above the sixth stage!

nAnd within this 5%, the higher the stage, the fewer the number of people.

nIn the entire country of Chengyuan, there are only ten known experts at the Ninth Stage of the Heavenly Realm!

nAmong these ten, Li Tianhao was the second youngest!

nThe youngest one was already in his thirties.

nAnd Gu Qingluan was not even twenty-one years old yet!

nMore importantly, just five years ago, she was a powerless waste!

nIn a span of over five years, she transformed from a waste into a respected Ninth Stage Heavenly Realm expert. How is that possible?

nGu Qingluan shook her head, “You’re mistaken.’

nEveryone let out a sigh of relief.

nThat was what they thought. How could she possibly be at the Ninth Stage of the Heavenly Realm?

nIf she were at that level, it would be unbearable for anyone. They would start doubting their own lives!

nLi Tianhao was taken aback. Engaging in direct combat with Gu Qingluan allowed him to truly feel her strength. If she wasn’t at the ninth stage of the

nHeavenly Realm, then could she be…

n“The Saint Realm?” he exclaimed.

nEveryone else was utterly shocked by his proclaim.

n“It’s impossible! Absolutely impossible!” Gu Zhicheng and Wang Shi vehemently denied it.

nThey couldn’t accept the idea of Gu Qingluan being at the ninth stage of the Heavenly Realm, let alone being a Saint. Even their proudest daughter had only reached the Heavenly Realm.

nIf Gu Qingluan truly was a Divine Realm powerhouse, then they were finished!

n“That’s not the case,” Gu Qingluan denied. Before everyone could relax, she smirked, “I’m just at the peak of the ninth stage of the Heavenly Realm.”

nThud!

nWang Shi’s legs gave way, and she sank to the ground.

nGu Zhicheng visibly staggered.

nThe peak of the ninth stage of the Heavenly Realm!

nWith just one opportunity, she could ascend to the Saint Realm!!!

nShe was once their daughter, someone who could have brought glory to the Gu family. But now, they had become enemies. Instead of supporting the Gu family, she had become a weapon aimed at them!

nAt that moment, regret overwhelmed Gu Zhicheng’s heart.

nIf only he had known… if only he hadn’t acted so ruthlessly!

nGu Qingluan’s gaze turned icy as she scanned the Gu couple, finally resting on the face of Li Tianhao. “Lord Li, do you still wish to fight?”

n‘Yes.” Li Tianhao’s expression was still calm.” Your cultivation is indeed high, but you’re still young and inexperienced. If we really fight, it’s not certain who will win.”

n“Then let’s fight! ‘

nGu Qingluan stood her ground, exuding an air of calmness and composure.

nThe gentle morning breeze blew, causing her flowing white garments to flutter, while her fair and delicate face radiated an ethereal charm.

nLi Tianhao, unable to contain his impatience any longer, made the first move.

nThe earlier proposition of three moves had become nothing but a mere jest.

nIt remained uncertain whether giving their all would be sufficient to overcome their opponent.

nLi Tianhao was skilled in the art of spear techniques. Little did he expect that one day he would be compelled to resort to using a weapon against a younger opponent.

nAs he closed in on Gu Qingluan, a long spear appeared in his grasp.

n“The Blazing Flame Spear!” Wang Shi exclaimed upon catching sight of the weapon, a glimmer of hope lighting up her eyes.

nThe Blazing Flame Spear was renowned for its ability to sweep aside all obstacles in its path.

nA tinge of admiration flickered in Gu Qingluan’s eyes.. “So, this is the legendary Blazing Flame Spear?’
