Follow the path of Dao from infancy

This spearstroke was like the cry of a phoenix in the sky, infused with the dazzling essence of divine fire, unavoidable!

Completely locked in!

Feng Shan Jun's prior retreat aimed to lure Li Tian Gang far from the Array, intending to pierce through his flesh, ravage his Divine Soul, and fling him before Li Hao, to witness his father's brutal death in despair.

As the divine spear pierced down, suddenly, a blinding divine might burst forth, and like a ferocious fire, the blade furiously struck upwards!

"Shatter for me!!"

A single slash broke through the spear's radiance, and at the same time, the divine might and overwhelming momentum that suddenly erupted even managed to shake Feng Shan Jun to a momentary halt!

In this instant of vulnerability, Li Tian Gang's eyes shot lightning, he let out a heavenward roar and ruthlessly slashed his divine blade, cleaving Feng Shan Jun's body in half!

The golden blood spilled harshly, like sparks flying about, as Feng Shan Jun screamed miserably, hurriedly retreating and looking up in horror.

He saw Li Tian Gang, holding the divine blade, striding toward him.

His aura soared straight into the sky, like a scorching sun above, like an enraged true god burning with fire!

Could this be the Four Stands Realm?!

Feng Shan Jun's pupils constricted, his heart in shock. Li Tian Gang was actually concealing his presence, pretending to be from the Three Immortal Realms!

And now the realm revealed was clearly the Tao Heart Realm!

This true dragon from the Li Family, when had he become a powerhouse of the Four Stands Realm?

"Defy the heavens with my nine steps, die!!"

In this moment, Li Tian Gang revealed his true self no longer, his black hair flying wildly, his Four Stands Realm aura on full display.

It was because of his breakthrough in cultivation that he dared to step out of the Array and engage in battle with the Demon King.

Beside Li Jun Ye, he was also a rare genius, stepping into the Three Immortal Realms at 23. Such a cultivation rate was enough to shake the world, yet he kept it low-profile.

Having battled in Northern Yan for over a decade, he had ascended to Three Immortals Peak early on, already touching the threshold of the Tao Heart Realm.

Shortly after the battle with Li Hao in Qingzhou, he stepped into the Four Stands Realm and found his Tao Heart.

The Law of All Things!

This was his way, his heart!

Thud, thud, thud!!

Bursting forth with the Martial Arts Extreme Meaning he had created, he took several steps in succession. The heavens and earth outside the defensive line seemed to tremble with each step he took, his aura escalating, his divine might's fiery brilliance intensifying!

With six steps, his presence was akin to a god descending, roaring with a blade that seemed to split heaven and earth.

The universe seemed to tear apart, all things follow their laws, he adhered to the laws of heaven and earth, restoring order, determined to cleanse the world of all chaos!

Strike!

The blade's radiance was blinding, like the brilliant sun, lifting a sky filled with divine light and ferocity.

The half-bodied Feng Shan Jun was in terror. Li Tian Gang was merely in the Tao Heart Realm, yet the momentum he released made his heart tremble with an overwhelming sense of powerlessness.

The disgrace he suffered outside Heavenly Gate Pass seemed to confront him again.

His eyes turned bloodshot, spewing out essence fire and divine lightning, roaring as he turned to reveal his true form.

But his true form as a half-bodied phoenix was somewhat desolate, the other half formed from divine fire coalescence. As he roared, he spewed out True Phoenix Essence Fire!

The surrounding temperature rose dramatically again, the ground cracked, verging on turning into magma, the air between heaven and earth steamed and twisted.

Centuries ago, he had swept through a city by merely flying past, turning everyone to ash; now, by erupting with True Phoenix Essence Fire at full strength, just the residual heat was enough to split open the flesh of the Indestructible Realm!

Bang!

Yet the soaring flames were cleaved apart as Li Tian Gang stepped out of the fire, taking the seventh step while his might surged once more.

"Defying Fate Realm, let me sever your life!"

Li Tian Gang's eyes were cold as lightning, his blade fury rained down, hundreds to thousands of slashes cutting through the sea of fire, aiming directly for Feng Shan Jun's true form.

Feng Shan Jun was both shocked and enraged; at this moment, he had no second chance at life. If he died, millennia of cultivation would be reduced to ashes!

His heart burned with shame and unwillingness. He had not been able to defeat that youngster earlier, and now facing Li Tian Gang, he was still so embarrassed!

"Phoenix Soul Condensation Blood!!"

He roared out, igniting the trace of True Phoenix Divine Blood in his veins.

Indeed, he was not of the Phoenix Clan by birth, but of the Fire Cloud Sparrow Clan, yet a True Phoenix ancestral spirit had awakened in his bloodline, guiding him unknowingly onto the path of cultivation.

Over the years, he had cast aside his identity as a member of the Sparrow Clan, instead considering himself a phoenix.

He constantly maintained the appearance of the Phoenix Clan, despising the Sparrow lineage within him.

He already saw himself as a True Phoenix!

Now pushed to the brink, the sliver of proud Phoenix blood in his heart finally incited the true passionate blood of the Phoenix Clan, choosing to move forward courageously, burning his true blood!

As the Phoenix True Blood burned away, he would no longer have any ties to the Phoenix Clan, but at this moment, he was a True Phoenix!

With divine patterns emerging, an ancient and vast aura emanating from his body, he seemed like an ancient phoenix gracing the world, his feathers dazzling like gilded gold, containing divine light and the pure Divine Power of true crimson.

With a single breath, a golden lotus flew out.

This golden lotus burned with flames, radiating a heart-moving brilliance.

Li Tian Gang's gaze turned steeled. Drawing a deep breath, he stepped forward with the eighth step!

His aura rose furiously again, and at the same time, he unleashed the Martial Tao Extreme Meaning Skill he had developed.

"Xing Tian Blade!!"

The blade light soared, like a towering peak reaching heaven, illuminating half of the defensive line.

The dazzling light, demanding to sever the heavens, struck down fiercely upon that golden lotus.

The terrifying impact erupted, causing the golden patterns on the Array to flicker continuously, emerging one after another, withstanding the dreadful onslaught.
