The stone tablet’s eruption lasted almost one month.

However, the majority withdrew from cultivation after around seven days because their bodies had reached their limit and could no longer tolerate any more ancestral qi. They had to wait until their bodies digested the ancestral qi before they could continue to absorb more.

The three great heavens army was still very excited after they withdrew from their cultivation state because of the significant improvements they gained from the opportunity. For the rest of the time, they occasionally cast curious and awed glances at the 25 lotus platforms above the stone tablet. Those on the platforms were the top experts in the three great heavens.

Seven days after the great army withdrew from cultivation, the stone tablet had been erupting for more than half a month. During this period, the figures on the 25 lotus platforms opened their eyes one after another, and Genesis Qi soared into the sky like smoke signals visible within thousands of miles.

Qin Lian opened her eyes on the 16th day, and powerful Genesis Qi gushed forth from her body like a storm. She beamed with unconcealable joy. Her Genesis Qi foundation had soared to 3 billion after cultivating!

An increase of almost 500 million!

It would have taken Qin Lian at least a few years and countless cultivation resources to achieve such a level in Hunyuan Heaven. But it only took her three months in Guyuan Heaven. It was clear that the opportunities in Guyuan Heaven were remarkable and rare.

Qin Lian’s beautiful figure moved slightly, and she descended from the lotus platform.

“You also increased your Genesis Qi foundation to 3 billion?” a surprised voice sounded beside her. Qin Lian turned to see Dong Ye from the Zixiao Region.

Dong Ye was surprised because her Genesis Qi foundation was also 3 billion, but there had been a huge gap between her and Qin Lian before they had entered Guyuan Heaven. Qin Lian was catching up to her now.

Although pleased with her improvements, Qin Lian didn’t show it. She instead cast her gaze to the lotus platform that was still spewing out ancestral qi. “Three billion isn’t that impressive. I feel that someone will increase their Genesis Qi foundation to 4 billion after this!”

Surprised, Dong Ye immediately followed her gaze. “You think Zhou Yuan’s Genesis Qi foundation might reach 4 billion?!”

“What? Is it not possible?” Qin Lian smiled.

Dong Ye said snappily, “From what I know, even if a glass Heavenly Sun was cultivated to its peak, one’s foundation can’t exceed 4 billion. That’s the limit.”

Qin Lian said calmly, “Do you think Zhou Yuan is just an ordinary glass Heavenly Sun expert?”

Although Dong Ye had previously found Zhou Yuan unpleasant to the eye because of Su Youwei, she couldn’t deny that Zhou Yuan made remarkable battle accomplishments in Guyuan Heaven. She had never thought much about Zhou Yuan’s strength when they had first come to Guyuan Heaven, but now she was no match for Zhou Yuan.

Zhou Yuan’s talent and potential were far beyond her imagination. He was like a blazing sun that covered up everyone else’s rays of light.

Let alone her, even Guan Qinglong was overshadowed by Zhou Yuan.

Dong Ye reflexively refuted Qin Lian’s words, but after calming down, she had to admit that there was a high possibility that what Qin Lian had said would come true.

Zhou Yuan’s Genesis Qi foundation could exceed 4 billion.

A Heavenly Sun expert like him had never been seen in Hunyuan Heaven in many years.

Is it really going to reappear in the world this time?

While Dong Ye was in a very complicated mood, more people awakened on the 25 lotus platforms.

When Jiang Jinlin awakened, his Genesis Qi was as vast as the clouds, roaring like dragons. His Genesis Qi foundation had reached a terrifying level of 3.7 billion. But before Jiang Jinlin rejoiced, he sensed even stronger Genesis Qi erupting from not far away. It drew countless exclamations.

It was from Guan Qinglong.

Azure Genesis Qi swept across the sky and turned half the horizon an azure color.

His Genesis Qi foundation reached 3.9 billion!

Astonishment filled everyone’s faces, but Guan Qinglong inwardly sighed. He was aiming for 4 billion, but he had ultimately failed. It was indeed not as easy to break the limit as he had thought.

“Guan Qinglong, you’re ambitious,” a nonchalant voice sounded.

It was from Jiang Jinlin. How could he not understand what Guan Qinglong wanted to do from his expression?

Guan Qinglong’s expression was calm when he said, “It is said that there are so-called sacred heaven prides in the most mysterious Shengzu Heaven…and to become a sacred heaven pride one has to possess a foundation of 4 billion Genesis Qi stars.”

Guan Qinglong peered into the distance and said, “Mi Shan said that the current generation of Heavenly Sun experts from Shengzu Heaven is one of the strongest in tens of thousands of years. If no one from our five great heavens reaches that level, the final battle will be very difficult.”

Jiang Jinlin’s expression turned a little sullen when he heard this. He was an extremely arrogant person, but he was also powerless in the face of the Sacred Race’s heaven prides who appeared to be blessed by heaven.

“Fortunately, our Hunyuan Heaven has good luck…”

Guan Qinglong smiled and shifted his gaze to the last four lotus platforms that were still radiating dazzling light. On them sat Zhou Yuan, Wu Yao, Su Youwei and Zhao Mushen.

“Although they have potential, it’s a pity that they have weak foundations,” Jiang Jinlin remarked after he swept a glance over them.

Besides Zhou Yuan, Wu Yao and the others all had weak foundations. So, in his opinion, it would be hard for them to rise to important positions even with the opportunities from the stone tablet.

“The rear wave pushes the front wave. You will pay the price if you look down on them.” Guan Qinglong naturally knew how Jiang Jinlin felt. After all, the feeling of being overtaken by the rear waves was never good. Moreover, all four were from Hunyuan Heaven.

Jiang Jinlin snorted coldly and said, “I look forward to seeing how fierce those rear waves can be!”

He floated down and landed next to the stone tablet. While digesting the ancestral qi in his body, Jiang Jinlin occasionally cast furtive glances at the four lotus platforms that were still brightly lit.

On the 25th day, there was finally movement from three of the four lotus platforms.

Wu Yao, Su Youwei, and Zhao Mushen opened their eyes almost at the same time, and the Genesis Qi throughout the world surged violently.

A dragon silhouette hovered in the sky above Wu Yao. But upon closer look, one would notice a faint aura brewing within it.

Above Su Youwei was a black-and-white sun, and yin and yang were mysteriously fused.

Meanwhile, a mysterious beast shadow appeared above Zhao Mushen. It seemed capable of swallowing the world with its imposing bearing.

Many people were dumbstruck by such a spectacle.

Moreover, the three’s Genesis Qi was surging madly. In just a few breaths, Wu Yao’s and Su Youwei’s Genesis Qi foundations soared to the level of 3.7 billion, whereas Zhao Mushen was even better. He reached 3.8 billion and surpassed Jiang Jinlin!

Hss.

Countless people inhaled sharply. Wu Yao’s and Su Youwei’s foundations were previously less than 2 billion, but they had skyrocketed to 3.7 billion. The increase was too terrifying!

Many even felt that the three could have broken the limit of 4 billion if they hadn’t had such a weak foundation beforehand.

All eyes were filled with awe as they stared at them. They felt that a new leader was slowly rising.

Jiang Jinlin’s expression turned a little unpleasant. To him, Wu Yao and Su Youwei were just beautiful vases, but now, the two so-called vases were at the same level as him.

Guan Qinglong also wore a somewhat complicated expression, but more than anything, he was delighted. He gazed at Wu Yao’s slender and proud figure and felt that she was finally beginning to display a radiance that belonged to her.

The veteran Heavenly Sun experts had dominated the first half of the Battle of Guyuan Heaven, but this would likely be different in the second half.

Guan Qinglong slowly shifted his gaze to the last young figure still sitting silently on the nine-colored lotus platform. Guan Qinglong’s expression was complicated and contained a hint of anticipation.

Zhou Yuan…how far will you reach this time?

His question was finally answered one month after the stone tablet was opened.

The world slightly quivered as the figure on the last lotus platform slowly opened his eyes, which had been closed for a whole month.
