Yun Liao unleashed Tier Three Earth Magic—Extreme Pressure on the Wind and Cloud Platform, crushing hundreds of Divine Profound Upper Realm and Half-Step Mountain Suppression prodigies into meat patties amid their desperate Vein Technique assaults. Even Mountain Suppression Realm cultivators buckled under the intensifying force as he mocked their numerical superiority. Distraught elders and Earth Unrestricted experts beseeched Jisheng Hall Master Di Chen to intervene, but he coldly rebuked Red Leaf Sect's Le Qing for presuming to dictate Jisheng Hall's affairs.

The instant those words were uttered, the Earth Unrestricted Experts floating in the sky turned pale with fear. They dropped to their knees mid-air, heads lowered deeply just like Le Qing, too terrified to lift them and utter a single word of defense.

Is the Hall Master of Jisheng Hall truly unhappy with the Red Leaf Sect?

He even directed this clash straight at Sect Leader Ye Wuping.

What's the reason behind this?

No matter how they pondered, they couldn't figure out Jisheng Hall's motives. Yet they refrained from saying anything more, fearing extra words might lead to bigger blunders.

"Get down!" Di Chen's furious roar echoed, sending them scurrying back to their spots, hearts racing without settling for ages.

Spectators of this moment felt profound shock deep within.

At first, everyone assumed the Hall Master of Jisheng Hall would punish the Immortal Sect's members. Instead, he lashed out at the Red Leaf Sect with such cutting remarks.

Some, however, grasped the truth.

As the proverb states, outsiders often see clearer than those involved.

How dare the insignificant Red Leaf Sect presume to dictate to Jisheng Hall? It's sheer arrogance.

Do they really believe their ties with Jisheng Hall run that deep?

Those in the know directed mocking sneers toward the Red Leaf Sect's group, chuckled softly, then turned their eyes to Yun Liao. They relished watching Red Leaf Sect's prodigies get decimated, unable to contain bursts of cheers.

Yet the crowd overlooked one detail: after the Red Leaf Sect folks retreated, the Hall Master of Jisheng Hall fixed a icy glare on Yun Liao. In a grim mutter, he said, "So merciless—even in the semi-finals, you're butchering opponents like this!"

With those words out, the Hall Master of Jisheng Hall refrained from halting Yun Liao's rampage. Rather, he observed keenly, savoring the unfolding drama.

...

The slaughter raged on.

Within moments, more than a thousand foes dwindled to merely one or two hundred—all elite youths from the Lower Realm of Mountain Suppression, without fail.

Their robust Spirit Bodies barely shielded them from the crushing force at the front lines, yet movement remained impossible.

As deaths mounted with zero fightback, countless survivors pleaded desperately for mercy from Yun Liao. Some even spilled that Extreme Heaven Sealing Heart orchestrated the whole scheme!

Beyond naming the culprit, they exposed Red Leaf Sect's Extreme Heaven Sealing Heart's next moves. Should Yun Liao evade the trap, Extreme Heaven Sealing Heart would personally bring forces to wipe him from the Wind and Cloud Platform—unless Yun Liao leaped off voluntarily.

Jumping off, naturally, spelled defeat.

That grand dream of claiming the Red Domain's top honor would turn into utter ridicule.

As he kept up the relentless pressure, Yun Liao glanced upward to the Wind and Cloud Platform's peak. Though unaware of Extreme Heaven Sealing Heart's face, he spotted a youth radiating bone-chilling frost, glaring down with lethal hatred.

That stare burned to shred Yun Liao apart and wring every drop from his remains.

It went without saying—that had to be Extreme Heaven Sealing Heart!

The second Extreme Heaven Sealing Heart locked eyes with Yun Liao, innumerable gazes converged on them. Lately, rumors swirled that Extreme Heaven Sealing Heart was fated to crush the Immortal Sect, stirring massive buzz—everyone was in the loop. Thus, their aerial confrontation instantly seized all attention.

Extreme Heaven Sealing Heart stood as the sole disciple accepted by the Domain Master in recent years.

Hailed as the Red Domain's rarest genius in a century. Such claims from others might draw doubt, but from the Domain Master's own lips, it signaled Extreme Heaven Sealing Heart's shot at Red Domain supremacy.

Meanwhile, Immortal Sect's Yun Liao had been utterly obscure before. Without the Immortal Daily's nonstop hype, slaying Ji Daoshi, and riling the whole Red Domain prior to the Sky Ascension Gate, his name would've stayed buried.

What explosive clash awaited these two titans?

"Never seen a semi-final this explosive before! This year's Seven Domains Celestial Ascension Ranking was absolutely worth ditching cultivation for."

"As soon as Yun Liao from the Immortal Sect wipes out those Red Leaf Sect fools obstructing his path, he'll surely ascend. Right now, Extreme Heaven Sealing Heart waits at the Wind and Cloud Platform's peak alongside his group—it won't take long for them to clash, sparking an unavoidable epic showdown!"

"Ever since Extreme Heaven Sealing Heart became the Domain Master's disciple, no fresh reports about him have surfaced. Still, with direct instruction from the Domain Master himself, his might has to be utterly fearsome, outstripping figures like Ji Daoshi by a clear edge. Yun Liao of the Immortal Sect merely took down one Ji Daoshi, with zero other fights to his name, leaving his true power a mystery. Hence, when these two geniuses collide, the victor remains anyone's guess."

In the midst of spectators' heated chatter, the surviving young experts from the Lower Realm of Mountain Suppression got successively hurled into the Yellow Springs amid overwhelming force.

The Wind and Cloud Platform's lower section turned into a bloody stream in merely ten breaths.

More than a thousand combatants—all wiped out, not a single survivor!

Myriad onlookers drew sharp gasps right then, inwardly shocked by Yun Liao's merciless ferocity.

Across centuries, Yun Liao stands alone in unleashing such savage slaughter during the semi-finals.

Having massacred those thousand-plus foes, Yun Liao stowed his magic wand and began striding toward the Wind and Cloud Platform's upper reaches. This action sent ripples through countless hearts. Watching him climb step by step, viewers felt their own pulses quicken, as though they trod the platform in his stead.

Extreme Heaven Sealing Heart, meanwhile, just plopped down cross-legged, biding his time for Yun Liao's arrival. Around him clustered over a dozen elite Red Leaf Sect prodigies, every one at Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression. These were fresh recruits taken in by the Red Leaf Sect lately.

Only an Upper Realm powerhouse could possibly overcome such a formidable array!

Yet not your average Upper Realm fighter either; Extreme Heaven Sealing Heart by himself could likely crush a standard one.

Meanwhile, Yun Liao eyed the Wind and Cloud Platform stairs intently, his steps growing ever more deliberate.

To outside observers, doubts arose—had fear gripped Yun Liao?

Extreme Heaven Sealing Heart let out mocking sneers before booming, "If guts fail you, quit dreaming of Red Domain supremacy— just come over, bare your neck, and I'll grant you a quick end. Pathetic coward!"

Of course, he dismissed any notion that the Wind and Cloud Platform itself halted Yun Liao. For elites like them, scaling it posed no real challenge. Even drained of spiritual power from prior battles, the outcome wouldn't shift.

The platform served merely to weed out the mediocre, not to test true monsters, so its trials stayed manageable.

Still, Yun Liao's pace dragged on, slower with each stride.

Right now, Yun Liao fixated solely on those Wind and Cloud Platform steps signifying semi-final clearance, struggling upward inch by inch.

Thankfully, thanks to his Fire Spirit Body and constant Spirit Rice intake lately, he'd hit Minor Success in it.

By Yun Liao's calculations, a lesser Spirit Body would demand at least Great Success to conquer those semi-final steps.

Good thing his Fire Spirit Body ranked pretty high!

That said, clearing the semi-final marked his absolute ceiling. His spiritual power couldn't sustain further climbs.

He was a mage, after all.

No Spirit Body Master!

Upon hitting the semi-final clearance step, Yun Liao slumped down hard, mopping sweat from his brow before shooting a helpless grin at Extreme Heaven Sealing Heart up top.

"Count yourself fortunate," he declared.

Saying that, Yun Liao rose and headed for the side exit along the stairs, leaving the Wind and Cloud Platform to return to the grass below.
