The surrounding power of the Heavenly Dao seemed to be influenced by , operating in a profound and mysterious way.

, who was cultivating on the 130th step, suddenly felt something and opened her eyes, looking at Nie Li in confusion. She sensed that the power of the Heavenly Dao around them was extremely chaotic. What on earth was Nie Li doing?

At this moment, and the others also couldn't help but direct their gaze towards Nie Li.

Nie Li had completely fallen into some profound state of mind. At this moment, he seemed to merge with everything around him, to the point where even his aura was undetectable.

"What exactly is going on?" Long Yuyin frowned, a hint of worry flashing across her beautiful cheeks. She felt that the current Nie Li was somewhat strange.

Nie Li was carefully sensing it.

Although I still carry a trace of hostility, my understanding of the power of the Heavenly Dao is definitely not something any of you can compare with. Nie Li opened his eyes, a divine light flashing through his pupils. He looked up towards Long Yuyin, constantly merging with the surrounding power of the Heavenly Dao, and then took a step forward.

Hummm!

A vast wave of power, centered on Nie Li's feet, rippled outwards.

Outside the Holy Spirit Immortal Realm, everyone looked up at the Saint Spirit Rankings, chattering away.

"Long Yuyin is probably the most outstanding genius among this batch of newcomers, right? Everyone else is miles behind her!"

"Exactly! With her current strength, she's actually ranked ninth on the Saint Spirit Rankings. Truly amazing!"

"That Nie Li actually dared to challenge Long Yuyin. He doesn't know his place at all!"

While they were talking, the rankings on the Saint Spirit Rankings changed. Nie Li's name moved from sixteenth place to fifteenth. Although he only advanced one spot, it immediately caused a stir in the crowd.

"That kid actually moved up another rank?"

Within the top twenty, the competition for rankings was extremely fierce. Advancing even a single step was incredibly difficult. Nie Li had actually moved up another rank within just one day, reaching fifteenth place.

Everyone exchanged bewildered glances. No one dared to say anything more.

Regardless of whether Nie Li won or lost today, he was already someone they could never hope to reach. What right did they have to criticize him?

The commotion in the crowd hadn't yet subsided when they saw Nie Li's ranking change again—from fifteenth to fourteenth.

Instantly, everyone stared blankly at the Saint Spirit Rankings, almost holding their breath. The entire area fell silent; one could have heard a pin drop.

What exactly was happening? In just a short moment, Nie Li's ranking had advanced two more spots. Was Nie Li really going to surpass Long Yuyin today? In their view, that was something impossible to achieve, but at this moment, they couldn't be sure. Whether a miracle would actually happen...

Previously, they had thought that Nie Li challenging Long Yuyin was extreme arrogance, a case of overinflated self-confidence. But in such a short time, Nie Li had moved up two ranks, silencing everyone.

Nie Li was closing in on Long Yuyin, little by little!

Could Nie Li really create a miracle? Everyone felt like they were holding their breath!

At the end of the square, a chair sat quietly on the ground. A beautiful young girl dressed in white, her face pale, looked up at the distant Saint Spirit Rankings. A young man stood quietly beside her. These two were and , siblings.

"I didn't expect Nie Li's talent to be so astonishing. On his very first day in the Holy Spirit Immortal Realm, he's already ranked fourteenth on the Saint Spirit Rankings. This talent is in no way inferior to Long Yuyin's. When Long Yuyin first entered the Holy Spirit Immortal Realm, her ranking was about the same," the white-clad girl murmured, gazing at the rankings.

Although the white-clad girl sat in a wheelchair, her face pale and delicate as a willow swaying in the wind, she was still breathtakingly beautiful. Many people in the distance cast admiring glances, but upon seeing the purple-gold emblem of the Gu family on her sleeve, they quickly kept their distance. The Gu clan was not someone they could afford to provoke.

"Brother Nie Li is the most inscrutable person I've ever met. I feel he's hidden a great deal of talent and ability," Gu Bei said, his gaze distant.

The image of that mysterious youth flashed through his mind. Indeed, he could sense that Nie Li was still hiding many things. Suddenly, Gu Lan noticed a few figures in the distant crowd. After a moment of silence, she said, "Little brother, let's go back."
