The moment Jiang Yan's words fell—
Within the massive cloud sea ahead, black liquid surged forth.
It twisted, condensed, and solidified under Jiang Yan's calm gaze, rapidly forming into a humanoid figure.
A black mask covered its face.
In its hand was a dark-gold battle spear, its surface flowing with dense law patterns.
"Defeat this opponent,"
the voice within the clouds echoed,
"and you may enter the second floor of the Tongtian Bridge."
Jiang Yan's eyes flickered slightly.
A dark-gold spear materialized in his hand as well.
Though he had already mastered the seventh layer of Divine Weapon comprehension, Jiang Yan had never wavered—
His true path had always been the spear.
The Yan Divine Soldier was terrifying, yes…
but spear arts were the foundation of his combat soul.
"Begin."
From beneath the black mask, two cold eyes locked onto Jiang Yan.
"Kill!"
The instant the word fell—
Dark-gold light erupted.
The masked warrior lunged forward, the spear in his hand wrapped in monstrous killing intent. The spear tip tore through space itself, thrusting straight toward Jiang Yan's heart with unstoppable force—
A strike powerful enough to force Realm Master–level experts to retreat!
"A bit of strength," Jiang Yan said lightly,
"but to me…"
"Too weak."
He didn't activate any secret art.
Didn't release his domain.
Didn't even circulate his full power.
He merely raised his spear.
And casually—
Crossed it.
Clang!
No explosion.
No shockwave.
Just a crisp, metallic chime.
The masked warrior's pupils violently contracted.
His consciousness blanked.
It was as if an invisible hammer had smashed directly into his soul.
His body trembled. His arms went numb. The spear flew from his grasp as he staggered backward—
Then stopped.
The surrounding space had frozen.
Invisible suppression pressed down from every direction. His internal energy stagnated, his laws refused to respond, and no matter how desperately he struggled—
He couldn't even lift a finger.
All of this…
Had been caused by a single, casual counter.
"What… how is this possible…?!"
The masked warrior stared in horror at Jiang Yan's spear.
Jiang Yan's expression never changed.
"It's over."
A slight flick of his wrist.
The spear tip aligned with the center of the man's brow.
Too fast to dodge.
Too absolute to resist.
Boom!
Violent law power flooded inward.
The masked warrior's body shattered instantly.
The mist of the first floor dispersed.
Without Jiang Yan moving an inch, the bridge beneath his feet automatically extended forward—pointing directly to the second floor.
He stepped ahead.
A new cloud barrier emerged.
"I choose a warrior."
Jiang Yan spoke before the system voice could finish.
The clouds rolled violently.
This time, silver liquid condensed, forming another masked warrior—also wielding a dark-gold spear.
The man's gaze turned cold.
"So another brat…"
His voice was tinged with displeasure.
"Use all your strength," he snarled.
"Otherwise, you won't survive even one move!"
The moment his words ended—
He thrust his spear forward.
Golden law power surged, condensing into a ten-thousand-foot spear projection, sweeping toward Jiang Yan with overwhelming might!
"All my strength?" Jiang Yan shook his head.
"You're not worth it."
His spear descended.
Golden law condensed instantly.
First Form of the Four Elephants Spear Codex — Suppress Mountains and Rivers!
Bang!
The opponent's spear projection shattered on contact.
Jiang Yan's spear momentum didn't slow in the slightest—
It descended like a falling mountain.
"No—! How can your single law overpower my dual laws?!"
The masked warrior screamed.
Too late.
The golden spear suppressed downward.
He vanished into ashes.
Second floor — instant kill.
Third floor.
Warrior selected.
Instant kill.
Fourth floor.
Instant kill.
Fifth.
Sixth.
Seventh.
From Universe-level opponents to Realm Master–level gatekeepers—
The result never changed.
The opponent fought desperately.
Jiang Yan responded casually.
A single counter.
A single strike.
Death.
No wasted motion.
No prolonged exchanges.
Fast enough to terrify.
When Jiang Yan stepped onto the eighth floor, the central plaza of the Tongtian Bridge Plane erupted.
"This is madness!"
King Zhenyan's eyes were wide.
"Seven floors—seven instant kills! Is this still Star-level?!"
"And he didn't even use a Divine Weapon!"
Black Mist King clicked his tongue in disbelief.
Ai Chen, Luo Feng, Hong, and Thor were practically shaking with excitement—
Not from pressure.
But because none of them had ever considered Jiang Yan an opponent.
Bolan, Rong Jun, and Wuka stood frozen, expressions numb.
Crushed.
Red Kite's eyes gleamed faintly.
"The recognition of the Thunder and Lightning Law Origin… and his Realm Master–level comprehension of the Four Elephants Spear Codex…"
"He's already truly invincible."
The Star Illusion King frowned slightly.
"The eighth-floor gatekeeper is an Invincible Realm Master."
"Can he still pass?"
Within the eighth-floor cloud sea—
Golden liquid surged.
It condensed into a masked warrior clad in golden battle armor, a golden law sigil blazing between his brows.
A Realm Master acknowledged by the Origin of the Law of Gold.
"You are already worthy of pride,"
the warrior said calmly.
"A Star-level reaching the eighth floor…"
"But this is where it ends."
Jiang Yan replied indifferently:
"That's exactly what the others said."
"They're all dead now."
The masked man's pupils shrank.
"You seem very confident."
His spear slashed out.
Golden space and gold laws fused perfectly, forming a devastating spear beam that tore through reality itself—space collapsing inch by inch in its wake.
"Very strong," Jiang Yan admitted calmly.
"But so what?"
He lowered his gaze.
And silently invoked—
Destroying Behemoth Bloodline Talent — Time Halt.
The next instant—
The world froze.
