Invincible Starting from Max Level Attributes

The first time Yang Zhen witnessed a mountain collapse, the shock within his heart far exceeded his own imagination.

On East Forest Island, a terrifyingly giant peak that stretched for over ten thousand miles collapsed in a great explosion. Amidst the rubble and soil debris, a terrifying True Essence wave traveled across the heavens and earth, and countless massive rocks were sent hurtling into the sky; once they fell, it seemed as if the entire East Forest Island shook.

Countless practitioners rushed over at the fastest speeds possible. Upon witnessing this earth-shattering scene, they collectively gasped and their faces changed color.

In mid-air, a powerful practitioner stood against the wind, his hand constantly forming seals. Waves of a torrential True Essence powerful enough to break up the huge rocks sent shockwaves across the depths of the vast sea of True Essence, causing huge waves to rise.

Within a short quarter of an hour, the once towering and unyielding mountain peak vanished without a trace. Amidst the dust filled sky, bizarre rocks flew about, gigantic trees burst open, and a blood light of an unknown diameter rose, quickly filling the sky.

It seemed as though the entire East Forest Island had fallen into a sea of blood mist.

Even the Medicine Elder, a man of vast experience, was left speechless, staring at the chaos unfolding before him without uttering a word for a long while. Yang Zhen nudged Medicine Elder’s agape mouth shut and inquired with a weird expression on his face, “What exactly happened? What relic could possibly emit such terrifying energy?”

Looking solemn, Medicine Elder responded while gazing at the powerful practitioner standing against the wind in mid-air, “The release of such a heavenly phenomenon has already surpassed my imagination. Now, even the strong Divine Travel Stage practitioner has appeared, this hidden treasure must be quite a figure.”

Numerous people rushed towards the blood light, disappearing once they entered it, while many more practitioners chose to wait and watch for a while rather than rashly entering.

Soon after, Hua Youyue and the group from Changyue Tower found their way to Yang Zhen and Medicine Elder. With a strange look on her face, Hua Youyue glanced at Yang Zhen, seemingly aware that Medicine Elder had a transformative spirit treasure and recognized Yang Zhen. She mused, “According to rumors, this hidden treasure seems to have some connection with the Dust Blood Great Sage from ancient times.”

“What?” Medicine Elder was taken aback, surprise flickering in his eyes. Looking at the blood waves filling the sky, he exclaimed, “It’s actually related to the Dust Blood Great Sage? No wonder it emits such a terrifying blood Qi.” “Who is the Dust Blood Great Sage?” Yang Zhen curiously asked. Given his current power and status, he had no way of knowing about such a legendary figure.

Hua Youyue Explained, “The Dust Blood Great Sage had a talent that tarred the ancients. In the Shanggeng Era, he was a rare genius who reached the Saint Realm before he was thirty years old. At that time, his reputation was sky-high, unmatched by anyone. However, it is said that he entered the Ancient Land of Life alone for a woman, never to emerge again. His cultivation legacy became a legend.”

Medicine Elder nodded and added, “The Dust Blood Great Sage was a lone practitioner, who was once revered by all rogue practitioners. If anyone from a renowned sect spoke ill of him in front of rogue practitioners, it would result in violent attacks, and they would not rest until one was dead. It could even implicate the entire sect.”

At this point, Medicine Elder gave a sigh of resignation, and continued, Despite his forceful and domineering cultivation methods, Dust Blood Great Sage was never evil. He was said to have exterminated a super sect overnight just because they insulted his dao partner, turning it into ruins!”

Yang Zhen took a deep breath, overcome with astonishment, and exclaimed, “To scorn one’s life for the sake of a love interest, Dust Blood Great Sage really had an extraordinary character.”

“What a pity…” Hua Youyue remarked with a calm expression, “Because of exterminating a super sect overnight, Dust Blood Great Sage overstepped the lines of these superpowers. Under the joint hunting of twelve sects, his dao partner met a tragic fate in one battle. Angered by this, Dust Blood Great Sage went on a killing spree, leaving corpses across ten thousand miles of wilderness. Then, holding his love’s lifeless body, he leapt into the Ancient Land of Life, vanishing entirely from sight. From that moment on, there were no more tales of the Dust Blood Great Sage in the world.”

Yang Zhen was furious upon hearing this story and cursed, “These so-called super sects are nothing but a bunch of righteous bastards! Twelve super sects banded together to hunt down one man, but ended up being brutally killed instead, how utterly disgraceful!”

Medicine Elder sneered and replied, “Completely shameless, lost all face… Ah, let’s not speak of this anymore. Let’s get in there. If this place truly is the legacy left behind by the Dust Blood Great Sage, we might even find the cultivation method he created, the Twelve Refining Blood Profound Skills!” Yang Zhen’s eyes lit up. Any cultivation method piqued his interest, not to mention one created by such a man of daring deeds. Without hesitation, he called out and charged towards the blood light.

By now, countless people had already entered, including practitioners of all stages, from the Golden Core Stage to the Divine Travel Stage. Each bore an eager expression and was visibly excited.

“If this is truly the legacy treasure of Dust Blood Great Sage, then things are about to heat up. I bet a lot of super sects are rushing here.”

“No kidding, the Twelve Refining Blood Profound Skills are said to enable bodily ascension to saint. Why do you think those super sects were hunting Dust Blood Great Sage back then? Weren’t they just coveting his cultivation method?”

“Shush, keep it down, there might be disciples or successors of super sects nearby. If they hear us, we don’t have the guts like Dust Blood Great Sage to fight them head-on.”

“What head-on? We, rogue practitioners, are no match for the successors of these super sects. It’s like throwing an egg against a rock. I hold no hope for the Twelve Refining Blood Profound Skills. If I can get my hands on some other stuff, I would be content.”

Every single item from Dust Blood Great Sage is extraordinary. Good luck, friend Kang.”

All the way, Yang Zhen could hear rumors and discussions about Dust Blood Great Sage from all around. Not bothering about concealing his identity anymore, Yang Zhen hastened his pace to the extreme. Using the Thunderbolt Sword, he dashed towards the sea of blood amidst a trail of white clouds.

“Yang Zhen!”

A shriek came. With a crash, most of the people around had their eyes on Yang Zhen.?? ⁵

“You shameless rat, Stand right there. Give me back my crystal stones!”

“Yang Zhen, even if you enter the secret stash today, we will make sure you have no place to be buried.”

Yang Zhen laughed heartily, turning around and said, “My friends, I am not this Yang Zhen. I just borrowed something from him. Have any of you seen clearly whether I am really that Yang Zhen?”

“Huh?”

Someone exclaimed and said, “Indeed, you don’t look like that swindler Yang Zhen. But why do you have Yang Zhen’s Thunderbolt Sword, and why can you use a Cloud Method?”

“Becoming a cloud is nothing special,” Yang Zhen smirked, “I can do black cloud, red cloud, even a flashy flower cloud, as for this Thunderbolt Sword…ah, don’t mention it. I got conned by Yang Zhen once, and he took my hundred thousand crystal stones. When I finally caught him, all he gave me was this sword. You all tell me, is this busted sword worth a hundred thousand crystal stones?”

Hiss!

Everyone around gasped and shook their heads, cussing, “Yang Zhen, this despicable, shameless, cunning, and deceitful man! It isn’t his first time swindling crystal stones. Although the sword isn’t bad, it’s nowhere close to being worth a hundred thousand crystal stones. May we know your name, friend? If we run into Yang Zhen again, we must work together to get all the crystal stones and spirit treasures from him.”

Well said, well said!” Yang Zhen clasped his hands, saying, “I am Li Xiaoyao. I am a dirty… ah, nevermind. I need to leave first. I’m still looking for the legacy of Dust Blood Great Sage. I’ll see you all another day.”

With that, Yang Zhen turned around and walked away, leaving a group of people staring in stunned silence.

As Yang Zhen approached the glow of blood, he was about to plunge in when he heard someone scream in horror, “Shanggeng Mirror World, this is the Shanggeng Mirror World!”

Damn it, the tone of horror stunned Yang Zhen, stopping him from moving forward.. He asked with a puzzled look on his face, “Brother, what’s a Shanggeng Mirror World?”
