Cultivation: I Have a Skill Level Panel

Inside Yao Guang City,

On the spacious streets, most Cultivators hurried past. Squads of Cultivators clad in black Battle Armor patrolled back and forth.

Gu Yun was in a room at an inn.

He sat cross-legged in Cultivation, arcs of Thunder flashing around his body, glinting with astonishing light.

At the same time,

On a certain battlefield in the sea region, tens of thousands of miles away,

"BOOM!"

A massive explosion echoed through the sky. The azure surface of the sea abruptly erupted, forming waves dozens of zhang high as dozens of terrifying Sea Race figures charged out.

Not far away, dozens of Human Race Cultivators watched with grave expressions, ready for battle.

"Slaughter these Human Race bastards! Crush their bones!"

The leader, a burly, blue-skinned man of the Sea Race with a vicious look in his eyes, let out a furious roar. In an instant, he condensed his Demon Qi and blasted it toward the dozens of Cultivators before him.

"Kill!"

Instantly, dozens of streams of Sword Qi soared into the air, like Flood Dragons ascending to the sky. They tore through the layers of space, hurtling violently toward the dozens of Sea Race figures!

"A piece of cake!"

The leading, burly Sea Race man shouted coldly. Then, boundless Demon Qi erupted from thin air. The vast seawater instantly condensed into tyrannical pillars of water, smashing violently toward the sharp Sword Qi!

"BOOM!"

The violent collision made the void tremble. Powerful gusts of wind swept out in all directions, and the seawater churned and boiled.

"Kill!"

"Vile humans, you occupy our territory! You all deserve to die!"

The dozens of Sea Race figures radiated a vicious aura, their faces twisting into ferocious expressions as they charged toward the Cultivators before them.

"Mere Sea Race, how dare you act so insolently!"

Among the Cultivators, a middle-aged man at the True Martial Realm First Layer shouted loudly. He then formed a hand seal, and surging True Yuan gushed forth.

He summoned a Fiery Flaming Flood Dragon more than ten zhang long out of thin air. Its lava-like body soared through the air, the searing heat twisting space itself. It then burned through the void, lunging violently toward the Sea Race members ahead!

Seeing this terrifying Fire Flood Dragon attack,

"Break for me!"

A member of the Sea Race with two horns on his head and a great club in his hand had a vicious glint flash in his eyes. Boundless Demon Qi surged out, and the great club in his hand instantly swelled dozens of times larger, like the Ruyi Golden Cudgel. It then shot through the air with the force of a mountain tsunami, smashing violently toward the ten-plus-zhang-long Fire Flood Dragon!

"BOOM!"

The terrifying collision immediately set off a dreadful explosion. The horrific energy shockwave made the surrounding seawater churn violently. Under the impact of the aftershock,

Both the surrounding Sea Race and Human Race members retreated dozens of meters.

"Brothers! Form ranks!"

The burly, blue-skinned leader of the Sea Race suddenly shouted. The surrounding Sea Race members immediately took their positions. Then, monstrous Demon Qi surged out, forming a terrifying, hundred-zhang-tall phantom of a Sea Beast!

Seeing this, a middle-aged Cultivator in green robes at the True Martial Second Layer among the Human Race members abruptly formed a hand seal. A tide of emerald light swept from his body, spreading into the surrounding void and filling it with an aura brimming with vibrant life!

Then, arm-thick green vines appeared out of thin air, quickly coiling together into a massive wooden vine Flood Dragon dozens of zhang tall.

"ROAR!"

A sharp, air-rending sound pierced the void. The vine dragon howled like a gale, hurtling like a torrential flood toward the Sea Beast phantom condensed by the Sea Race!

The giant beast phantom formed by the Sea Race violently clashed and tore at the green vine Flood Dragon, creating an exceptionally brutal scene.

However, this was just one small battle among thousands in the vast sea regions.

Meanwhile,

On a certain nameless island, hundreds, even thousands of Sea Race and Human Race Cultivators were locked in a fierce battle. Magic and Martial Techniques were constantly unleashed upon the Sea Race warriors, and the situation was extremely tense.

"Go to hell, human scum!"

In mid-air, a blue-skinned Sea Race warrior shot past at extreme speed, holding a sharp Bone Spear. As the warrior’s Demon Qi surged, profound runes lit up on the sharp spear, which seemed capable of piercing through space itself. It hurtled menacingly toward a Human Race True Martial Realm Cultivator who was already fighting another Sea Race warrior!

Amidst the widespread chaos of battle, Spirit Lights constantly streaked across the sky, stirring the very qi of heaven and earth into seeming disorder.

The True Martial Realm Cultivator, who was fighting the other Sea Race warrior, suddenly felt a prickling on his back as a sense of crisis washed over him.

He saw a long spear pierce through the void, stabbing toward him.

But the True Martial Realm Cultivator was unfazed by the danger. In an instant, a flash of light appeared, and a Top Grade Defensive Magical Artifact, shimmering with flowing light, suddenly emerged from his Spatial Ring, blocking the Sea Race warrior’s sneak attack like a steel wall.

Then, a glint of a sword flashed in his eyes. Astonishing Sword Qi erupted from his body. With a wave of his Longsword, the Sword Qi whistled through the air.

With a backhand strike, he instantly decapitated the Sea Race warrior, who had thought victory was in his grasp and was still in a state of shock. Azure blood instantly spurted out.

He then brandished his Sword Qi again. It soared into the air like a Flood Dragon and charged toward the Sea Race member before him!

...

「A few days later.」

Gu Yun left Yao Guang Island.

He arrived at the peak of a cliff facing the sea on a deserted island within the Lantai Sea Region, gazing out at the endless azure ocean.

Over the past few days, while flying at high speed, he had witnessed several small-scale skirmishes between Human Race Cultivators and Sea Race warriors. They were incredibly bloody, the scenes utterly shocking.

He had even intervened in some of these smaller battles, descending like a Thunder God to instantly resolve conflicts at the Spiritual Martial Level and Low Tier True Martial Level.

But when it came to duels between True Martial Great Cultivators at the True Martial Realm Seventh and Eighth Layer, he couldn’t interfere. But he could run very fast...

Gu Yun gazed at the boundless sea. The sea breeze blew past, making his long hair dance and his robes flutter.

Soon, his brow furrowed slightly.

He saw a streak of white light rapidly fleeing toward him from afar.

’Hm? That’s... Guan Yuanjun!’

Blood was trickling from the corner of his mouth, his long robes were tattered, and his body was covered in wounds. Fresh blood stained his white robes.

Guan Yuanjun saw a very familiar figure below him. Looking closely, he realized who it was!

He shouted down abruptly, "Fellow Daoist Gu, run!"

"Fellow Daoist Guan, what happened?" Gu Yun replied.

However, he didn’t need Guan Yuanjun to explain.

Soon, Gu Yun understood exactly what was happening.

Gu Yun focused his gaze and saw a divine light streaking across the sky in the distance. Within that light was a burly figure from the Sea Race, with two horns on his head and wearing loose black robes.

’True Martial Realm Sixth Layer Late Stage!’

Gu Yun’s pupils constricted. No wonder Guan Yuanjun’s robes were in tatters and he looked so injured.

He was being hunted by a Sea Race expert at the True Martial Realm Sixth Layer Late Stage!
