Duan Gujin took a deep breath, and his body continued to rush forward.

By the time he passed the sixth stele, his forehead was already drenched with sweat.

Meanwhile, Shang Yumin forcefully swallowed, her eyes firmly fixed on Duan Gujin, her Divine Sense had locked onto him earlier, and she did not see Duan Gujin consume any Elixir Pills.

She also believed that Duan Gujin would not cheat in this place.

This meant that the current spiritual power of Duan Gujin was comparable to a Sixth-level Alchemist.

"My goodness! That Duan Gujin is really strong!"

A hint of admiration flickered in her eyes, and in her heart, Duan Gujin at this moment was like an insurmountable mountain, deserving only worship and reverence.

Only now did she realize that Duan Gujin's Spiritual Power was indeed much stronger than all of them.

"No wonder he was so calm when he encountered the Jialuo Demon King and the Sky Crossing Demon King before!"

A glint in her eyes conveyed her belief that Duan Gujin's aptitude far surpassed that of any previous Palace Master in the history of the Guanghan Heavenly Palace.

"With his talent, if he weren't born on a Low-level Plane like the Qiankun Continent, he definitely wouldn't be just at this level! How strong could he possibly become?"

Duan Gujin took another deep breath, activated his Primordial Power, and pushed his Spiritual Power to the extreme as his body continued to move forward.

But then, he found that his speed was getting slower and slower, and the rushing force he faced was becoming stronger and stronger.

He slightly furrowed his brow, contemplating that his Heavenly Dragon Martial Soul might be about to reach its peak state.

With a flash in his eyes, he swiftly transformed his Heavenly Dragon Martial Soul into the Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul.

Sensing the powerful martial soul energy erupting from Duan Gujin, Shang Yumin's eyes widened, her mouth agape, her eyes shimmering.

She initially wanted to accuse Duan Gujin of cheating, but then she considered that his extraordinarily weird Martial Soul indeed gave her an eerie feeling.

"I wonder if this counts as cheating?"

Shang Yumin was at a loss for words; she could only widen her eyes and see how far Duan Gujin could go.

Duan Gujin took a deep breath and continued to step forward.

Strange gleams of light emitted from his body, offsetting some of the rushing force and making it easier for him to move forward.

Seeing Duan Gujin advancing still, Shang Yumin's heart raced, feeling like her heart was pounding erratically.

If Duan Gujin hadn't released the Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul before, she thought, with the Martial Soul Power he displayed now, he likely could not have walked past the seventh stele.

But now, feeling the strong Martial Soul emanating from Duan Gujin, and seeing his increased speed, she judged he might just be able to pass the seventh stele.

She was already very shocked when Duan Gujin managed to walk past the sixth stele.

When she saw Duan Gujin pass the sixth stele, she was convinced he was a true devil in human form.

But now, not only did Duan Gujin walk past the sixth stele, it even seemed like he could surpass the seventh stele, which completely overturned her previous understanding.

She could only stare with wide eyes, dumbfounded, unsure of what to say.

After a while, she saw Duan Gujin walk past the seventh stele.

"Oh my God!"

Shang Yumin was stunned for a long while, unable to believe her own eyes, repeatedly rubbing them until she was sure she hadn't seen wrong.

That Duan Gujin had indeed walked past the seventh stele and could continue moving forward.

She was immediately dumbstruck, her gaze lost in wonder.

However, as Duan Gujin in the river walked past the seventh stele, he distinctly felt the force of the river's current against him growing stronger and stronger.

"It seems I am now approaching my limit!"

The further he moved forward, the stronger the scouring forces his body would endure.

He had reached the point where he had to clench his teeth tightly; he quickly poured all his Spiritual Power into his body and continued moving forward.

After advancing a certain distance, he then saw the shadow of the eighth stele.

"Victory is in sight!"

Duan Gujin judged that he should be able to pass the eighth stele, and he gritted his teeth and persevered forward.

A moment later, he could sense a powerful scouring force acting upon his internal organs.

Fortunately, at this time, he released his Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul, which made his body stronger, enabling him to withstand the powerful scouring force.

It was difficult to move forward; he saw the eighth stele right in front of his eyes, but he found it to be extremely difficult to take even one step.

He felt as if he were stuck in deep mud, barely able to move.

Even as he continuously stimulated the Spiritual Power within his body, trying to move faster, he found it hard to do so, and he could only inch forward little by little.

He took a deep breath and continued to push forward.

"I must pass the eighth stele!"

In his heart, he also really wanted to know the extent of his limits; he didn't stop but continued to move forward.

After advancing over twenty steps, he finally managed to laboriously pass the eighth stele.

Seeing Duan Gujin pass the eighth stele with her own eyes, Shang Yumin's gaze became blank, her mouth agape without closing.

After Duan Gujin passed the eighth stele, he didn't feel much excitement; he intended to keep going, but he found that he had indeed reached the end of his strength.

When he inspected his body with his Divine Sense, he found that the Spiritual Power inside was nearly exhausted.

He exhaled a turbid breath, knowing that he had reached his limit.

Left with no choice, he retracted his Telekinesis.

But once he retracted his Telekinesis, the incredibly powerful scouring force in the river suddenly disappeared.

He exhaled another turbid breath, then climbed out of the river.

After reaching the shore, he quickly swallowed some Elixir Pills that restored Spiritual Power and sat down cross-legged to recover the depleted Spiritual Power.

Seeing Duan Gujin climb ashore, Shang Yumin then realized that he had really reached his limit.

"Thank goodness! So he had reached his limit after all!"

Shang Yumin exhaled a turbid breath, her mind racing.

She knew that even if Duan Gujin had barely passed the eighth stele in a state where he had reached his limit, it was enough to show that his Spiritual Power had reached a terrifying realm.

After half a day, Duan Gujin finally completely recovered.

"Miss Shang, let's head back!"

"Okay!"

Shang Yumin quickly replied.

However, just as they were about to return, they suddenly saw a bright light appear in front of them.

The surroundings where they were emitted a faint white light, their sharp eyes allowing them to see the surrounding scenery very clearly.

Therefore, when a white light suddenly appeared in front of them, they felt that this light did not match the surrounding environment.

It was a sudden, unusual white light.
