If Patriarch Fenn's claim is true and Evan Yang really used no treasures, then just how terrifying is his current strength? The Genius Pavilion disciples gradually realized it—they saw Evan Yang easily withstand the lightning strikes.
"This..." The Genius Pavilion disciples exchanged glances.
Patriarch Fenn and the others could only stare helplessly in the void, unable to intervene—even if they tried, they could not harm Evan Yang.
When the eighteenth bolt ended and the clouds dispersed, Evan Yang let out a sigh. No one understood its meaning—only Evan himself knew.
"If only there were a few more," Evan Yang muttered to himself.
After Evan Yang smoothly advanced to the Second Stage of the Nine Tribulations Realm, the Genius Pavilion disciples rushed over to him.
The old woman hiding in the shadows also revealed a look of delight. "What a freakish talent, freakish indeed. No wonder he was chosen."
Evan Yang had no idea how the old woman evaluated him, while the Fenn Family members had already left in fury. The facts were clear: aside from the Fenn Family and the hidden old monsters behind each Palace, no one in the region could take Evan Yang down now.
The Genius Pavilion disciples realized it too—if Evan Yang was already Violet Seventh-Tier before, now he could probably challenge experts at the Fourth Stage of the Nine Tribulations Realm.
So at this moment, Evan Yang's status within the Genius Pavilion became even more unshakeable. No one would dare object.
Yang Han saw everyone’s excitement and smiled, “Thank you, everyone.”
“You nearly scared us to death!” the Pavilion Master said.
Yang Han chuckled, but he couldn’t possibly reveal this secret to everyone. Otherwise, nobody in the world would ever figure it out.
“Seniors, I have a question. What is the region formed in my sea of consciousness?” Yang Han had discovered an independent space in his mind—whenever he opened his divine sense, he could find this region above his head, and now it was as big as a hundred-person hall.
“That’s the divine-sense region of the Nine Tribulations Realm. It hides your soul and your original attributes. Only you can see it; nobody else can,” the Pavilion Master explained.
Yang Han nodded in understanding. So this independent space that only his divine sense could see appeared after reaching the Nine Tribulations Realm, and all his soul and attributes were inside.
Besides that, Yang Han also moved Eldon, the Ancient Tree Soul, and Soul-Reaping Water into the space. Now it was like his own private sanctuary—nobody but him could touch it.
After settling everything, Yang Han said to the crowd, “I should leave now.”
“Where are you going?” Hearing Yang Han was about to leave, the Pavilion Master was shocked, and the others were startled too. After all, the Fenn Family Lord and others were watching outside like tigers eyeing their prey. Although Yang Han had made progress, he might not be able to stand up to so many strong opponents.
“I’m going out to see if there’s a chance to break through further.” Yang Han knew he had brought a lot of trouble to the Genius Pavilion. Even though he was now Grand Pavilion Lord, the Pavilion was still isolated because of him. Only by leaving and one day solving the Pavilion’s crisis could things return to normal.
