"It appears my information was correct."
Wang Shouzhe sighed.
In truth, he was almost completely certain before he even made a move. The reason for his verbal provocation was simply to exercise caution and to confirm his suspicions.
He looked at Zuoqiu Qingyun and said, "Zuoqiu Qingyun, I’ve done my research on you. Despite hailing from a Grade Four Prominent Family, you are petty-minded, vindictive, and unforgiving. This time, since you’ve expressed an intention to strike at me, you surely wouldn’t give up easily even if you failed this time. You would likely double your efforts.
Therefore, in order to eliminate future troubles, I must strike first."
"Zuoqiu Qingyun, your death day has come."
"Hmph ~ You think YOU can do it?!" Zuoqiu Qingyun not only didn’t panic, but an intense killing intent also spread from him, "You, a mere late-stage Spirit Platform Realm cultivator, intend to stop this young master? You truly don’t know your place! Out of my way!"
As his words fell, an evil, eerie, but incredibly powerful aura suddenly erupted from his body, the augmentation provided by Elder Jiang’s Divine Soul Power.
Simultaneously, the mid-grade Spirit Sword in his hand spun rapidly, radiating bursts of mysterious peachy-pink light.
This was the Soul-Swallowing Swordsmanship he had learned after meeting Elder Jiang. It used sinister techniques to affect a person’s Divine Soul, influencing their will in battles, with boundless applications.

Against a Tianren Realm powerhouse who was a level higher than him, this swordsmanship had limited effectiveness. However, against an opponent of the same Spirit Platform Realm, the swordsmanship was extraordinarily effective.
Conveniently, today he would show Wang Shouzhe a taste of what true absolute power was!
Zuoqiu Qingyun’s body moved following the sword, and with a flick of his wrist, a chilling, evil sword light suddenly stabbed at Wang Shouzhe.
The Divine Soul Power was condensed in the sword light, forming layers of peachy-pink Sword Intent that rippled out.
Any slightly weak-willed individual affected by this Sword Intent will have layers of illusion appearing in their minds, disrupting their focus in the battle even if they did not succumb to it completely.
However, Wang Shouzhe seemed entirely unaffected, even his facial expression didn’t change in the slightest.
Seeing the sword light drawing closer, he silently gave a command. A figure clad in a cloak suddenly flew out from behind him, blocking his front with the speed of a flash of light.
A surging might rose from the figure and erupted out like a mountainous roar or a tidal wave.
Next moment,
the figure dove down and counterattacked the incoming sword light with a simple punch!
"ROOOAAR~~~!!!"
A thunderous noise echoed throughout the entire peach blossom forest.
Under that fierce punch, the peachy-pink sword light and Sword Intent were completely obliterated.
Zuoqiu Qingyun trembled all over, he was thrown off and flew several meters back before he could barely stabilize himself.
The shattered Sword Intent coupled with the grim punch sent out a sweeping force, causing the surrounding peach trees to sway wildly. Countless petals fluttered about.
Amid the fluctuations of the blasting wind, the figure’s cloak was lifted, revealing a robust metallic figure underneath.
That figure turned out to be a metallic puppet!
"A Tianren Realm puppet?!"
Zuoqiu Qingyun’s pupils constricted, and he was so shocked by this sudden development that it caused a brief hesitation in his actions.
Clearly, the figure that suddenly emerged was Wang Shouzhe’s Tianren Realm puppet, Wang Shuzhu.
Ever since it was restored at a huge cost, this was the first real action Wang Shuzhu had taken. Despite being just a simple punch, the puppet’s power and dominance were already well revealed.
Meanwhile, as Zuoqiu Qingyun was still in shock, the vines in the surrounding trees started to rapidly grow.
Vine after vine surged towards Zuoqiu Qingyun like "giant pythons," drowning him in an endless sea of vines in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this, Wang Shouzhe couldn’t help but feel a rush of emotions.
In the past, to control such a large number of vines simultaneously would have been extremely laborious. Now, however, it was done easily.
The difference between one more and one less bloodline layer was indeed colossal.
The divergence was such that one needed to personally experience it to completely understand it.
In the past, he only knew that great Sky Prides were powerful. However, now that he himself had become a great Sky Pride, his bloodline had metamorphosed to the Fourth Level, he finally deeply realized the enormity of a Spirit Platform Realm Spiritual Body.
After becoming a Spiritual Body, his affinity with plants had significantly increased. Not only had the efficiency of absorbing Wood Elemental Spiritual Qi enhanced, even the God Sense consumed when controlling plants during battle was significantly less, making it much more effortless.
That was the reason he was able to keep a precise handle on Zuoqiu Qingyun’s movements.
Everywhere in this peach blossom forest were his cultivated "eyes and ears."
As time passed, the channels in his body were also becoming broader, stronger under the nourishment of his Bloodline Power. Even his God Sense was strengthened, giving him a feeling of rebirth.
Yet, these were merely the most basic changes.
The biggest transformation was his comprehension of "Intent."
Every technique and methods in this world, when practiced to the extreme, would form an "Intent." Swords have "Sword Intent," blades have "Blade Intent," fists have "Fist Intent," even archery has "Arrow Intent."
This so-called "Intent" was, in essence, a hint of comprehension. Once comprehended, the power of the technique would increase significantly.
Generally, one would only comprehend their "Intent" upon reaching the Tianren Realm. However, great Sky Prides possessing Spiritual Bodies at the Spirit Platform Realm had the chance to touch the realm of "Intent" prematurely.
