“Gu Zhen has come out, so fast, and he came out alone. I wanted to see him fight Chu Shengzi again, but it seems like that won't happen now.”
“Indeed, indeed! It's just a bit of a pity.”
“Do you think Chu Shengzi is stronger now, or Gu Zhen?”
“It's hard to say. Gu Zhen has broken through to the True God Realm and is the heir of the Emperor Clan Gu Family, his foundation is terrifying. What’s more, he possesses the Great Wilderness Sacred Body, his combat power must have increased a lot! However, Chu Shengzi has also fought with Jiang Shaoge, who is also in the True God Realm, and slightly won. Plus, the sword art mastery Chu Shengzi displayed later, his strength is also incredibly frightening!”
“Hmm, so it should be a fifty-fifty split, I think!”
“……”
The disciples of the Sacred Land were not qualified to approach the core area like the Ascension Peak, so they didn't know what happened.
With Gu Mingyuan's cultivation, his hearing was naturally excellent. After hearing the discussions of some disciples of the Sacred Land, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
Fifty-fifty?
Go to hell with your fifty-fifty!
It wouldn't even be a nine to one split.
He felt it was a ten to zero split, Chu Yuan ten, him zero.
“This feeling of powerlessness…”
He looked at those disciples of the Sacred Land, thinking, when they face me, it should be like I face Chu Yuan, right?
This kind of disparity, really makes people unhappy!
But there's nothing he could do about it.
“I should go back to the Clan!”
Gu Mingyuan thought for a moment. He felt like he couldn't continue cultivating in the Great Luo Sacred Land anymore. He would simply go back to the Emperor Clan Gu Family, well, it’s perfect, he could ask the family to find some rare heaven and earth treasures to help him cultivate, even if he had to pay a price, he wouldn’t hesitate.
After that, the Ascension Peak was relatively peaceful, with almost no one visiting.
Chu Yuan cultivated while reading various books from the Scripture Pavilion, cultivation methods, divine abilities, astronomy and geography, array formation scriptures, alchemy scriptures, weapon forging scriptures, secret technique collections... constantly enriching his foundation. Especially with his heaven-defying comprehension, there was almost nothing that could stump him.
He could self-learn, and understand everything instantly.
Of course, he also took time to guide his junior sisters in their cultivation.
He closed his ears to the outside world, living a carefree and enjoyable life.
But a few days later, the Great Luo Saint Lord, Wan Qing, found him.
“I wonder what brings the Saint Lord to me?” Wan Qing suddenly appeared, leaving him puzzled.
Wan Qing said, “Twenty days ago, the Emperor Clan Ji Family announced to the outside world that they have been hiding a terrifyingly talented descendant, named Ji Chen Tian. You know, before that, almost no one had heard of this name. It was always Ji Chen Kong, ranked 47th on the Dragon Ranking, who was considered the strongest genius of the younger generation in the Ji Family!”
“People have always wondered why they didn't make Ji Chen Kong the heir of the Ji Family, but it seems now that the position of heir was always reserved for Ji Chen Tian!”
After Wan Qing finished speaking, he looked at Chu Yuan quietly.
“So, what does it have to do with me?” Chu Yuan asked directly. You should continue talking, why are you looking at me?
He didn't believe that Wan Qing would come to tell him this for no reason.
There must be something.
“…” Wan Qing.
He continued, “You know Ji Chen Kong, right?”
Chu Yuan nodded, “Yes, 47th on the Dragon Ranking, 64 years old, possessing the peak True God Realm cultivation, his combat power has reached the peak of the Heavenly God Realm!”
Wan Qing nodded slightly, then said, “But he lost to Ji Chen Tian, and Ji Chen Tian is only 33 years old!”
“Oh.” Chu Yuan said indifferently.
“？？？？？” Wan Qing.
Just “oh”?
Not even a little surprised?
“Defeating a useless guy who took 64 years to reach the peak of the True God Realm, is this something to be surprised about? Is this so incredible?” Chu Yuan saw what Wan Qing wanted to express, and couldn’t help but say.
“！！！！！” Wan Qing.
One sentence nearly broke him!
Sixty-four years to reach the peak of the True God Realm, really useless?
He was around that age, too...
That means he was useless?
This is outrageous, you’re being too much!
But he couldn't refute it, Chu Yuan had only been cultivating for six years, and he had already reached the Divine Realm…
Forget it, forget it, the more he thinks about it, the angrier he gets!
Wan Qing took a deep breath and continued, “After Ji Chen Tian defeated Ji Chen Kong, he was officially made heir of the Ji Family!”
“The reason why Ji Chen Tian could defeat Ji Chen Kong is that his cultivation has already reached the early stage of the Heavenly God Realm, at the age of 33! This is such an incredible thing!”
“Oh.” Chu Yuan said calmly.
“……。” Wan Qing took a deep breath again, “The reason why he could cultivate so quickly is because he possesses an incredibly terrifying constitution, the Devouring Heavenly Dao Body!”
“The Devouring Heavenly Dao Body can devour the essence of all things to cultivate, the cultivation speed is incredibly fast, and there is no bottleneck before the Saint Realm, so he was able to break through so quickly!”
“Among the three thousand special constitutions, the Devouring Heavenly Dao Body is also among the top ten!”
“Oh… interesting.” Chu Yuan finally showed some interest.
Such a powerful constitution, it’s definitely going to have golden word tags.
Seeing that he was interested, Wan Qing asked with a profound air, “You know why I specifically came to tell you this, right?”
Chu Yuan thought for a moment and said, “Could it be that, since the Ji Family has established an heir, they have invited many forces, and you want me to see this?”
He could only guess this situation, he didn’t want to think about anything else.
Wan Qing pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, “No, originally, the Ji Family establishing an heir, as an Emperor Clan, should have invited many forces to celebrate together.”
“But Ji Chen Tian is very restless.”
“He wants to walk the Invincible Path, which basically means challenging his peers, step by step to solidify his invincible Dao Heart. After defeating Ji Chen Kong and becoming the heir of the Ji Family, he left the Ji Family and started challenging forces one by one. Now, many geniuses have already been defeated at his hands.”
“Invincible Path?” Chu Yuan chuckled, “He’s really arrogant. Isn’t he afraid of being beaten up by others, and then his Dao Heart breaking?”
“The peers he is talking about are only those under 50 years old. And for those under 50 years old, he should believe that he is invincible!” Wan Qing laughed, “The Invincible Path, this is a way for ancient sages to solidify their Dao Hearts, and he is following in the footsteps of the sages.”
“But it’s quite interesting, at least in the past thousand years, this is only the second time.”
“Only twice in a thousand years?” Chu Yuan couldn’t help but be curious, “Who was the first one?”
Wan Qing pouted, “Who else could it be, it’s naturally your master!”
“Ah? It was Master?” Chu Yuan was a little surprised. Master was this flamboyant?
It seems he still knows too little about Master.
“Yes.” Wan Qing nodded, his tone filled with admiration, “However, your Master didn’t challenge just any peer genius. As long as their realm wasn't several major realms higher than hers, she would challenge them, regardless of whether they were younger or older.”
“Older ones are not worth mentioning, at their old age, their cultivation wouldn't be much higher than your Master, could they possibly beat her?”
“The younger ones are no use either, no one could surpass her cultivation when they were younger than her!”
“Therefore, she truly walked the Invincible Path. Countless geniuses avoided the battle, intimidated before even fighting!”
“And it’s not just our Human race, she challenged all the other races, all the eighty-one realms of this world, and she didn’t lose once.”
Speaking of this, Wan Qing’s eyes were filled with admiration!
“It was also because of your Master's performance that was too dazzling, that’s why when Ji Chen Tian said he would walk the Invincible Path, it caught the attention of all the major forces.”
“Some say he’s overestimating himself.”
“Others think he's extraordinary.”
“He may not be able to achieve what your Master did, but many believe that he should be invincible under 50 years old. The reputation of the Devouring Heavenly Dao Body is too great!”
“For the past twenty-odd days, he has already defeated all the geniuses in the realm where the Ji Family is located, including those who have made it onto the Dragon Ranking, he easily defeated them all. To be precise, it only took him about ten days.”
“Then he went to the Taiyi Realm, and defeated all the geniuses of the major forces in the Taiyi Realm. Even the many True Disciple disciples of the Taiyi Sacred Land were defeated by him. This process also took him about ten days.”
“The Taiyi Sacred Land has declined somewhat, there is no one under 50 years old who can hold the banner, and the Taiyi Saint Son is already over a hundred years old! Naturally, he couldn't stop Ji Chen Tian.”
Hearing this, Chu Yuan felt that Wan Qing had a feeling of smugness.
As if he was saying… There are no outstanding geniuses under 50 years old in the Taiyi Sacred Land, but we have quite a few in the Great Luo Sacred Land.
Saint Lord, why are you always so pleased with yourself!
Chu Yuan couldn’t help but mentally rant.
Then, he changed the subject, “So, it's going to be the turn of our Great Luo Realm next, right?”
Chu Yuan had memorized the general layout of the eighty-one realms.
The Ji Family and the Great Luo Realm are separated by the Taiyi Realm.
Now that the Taiyi Realm has been conquered, wouldn’t it be the Great Luo Realm next?
Moreover, the Saint Lord had come to find him…
