Chapter 444: The Almighty of the Immortal Realm
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
One must understand that the strength Su Chen had just displayed was the genuine cultivation level of a Great Saint Realm powerhouse! Such prowess, not just in this age, but even in ancient times would have been extremely formidable.
Moreover, Su Chen had become a great saint in less than a hundred years. Even in ancient times, this was simply unheard of.
If one claimed none could accomplish this, that wasn’t entirely accurate either. Back in the ancient era, there was once a mighty Immortal Realm figure who reincarnated and began cultivating anew, similarly reaching the Great Saint Realm in under a hundred years.
Later, he even utilized less than a millennium to defy the heavens and become an emperor, departing for the Immortal Realm. This matter once sent shockwaves throughout the world.
And that was with the rebirth of the Immortal Realm mastermind. Su Chen was no reincarnating immortal! His attainments relied completely on his own aptitude!
Such dazzling talent was truly astonishing – even immortal bigshots likely paled in comparison.
“Fellow Daoist, do you think I’m joking about this?” Jin Yuan questioned the Heavenly Wolf.
He understood the weight behind his words as well. By now, many across the East Barrens had begun speculating whether Su Chen was an Immortal Realm master reborn.
Still, Su Chen was human. No matter what, it brought their race more benefits than harm, so many consciously chose to disregard him.
Yet for the myriad races of the Southern Region, this was hardly welcome news. Regardless of Su Chen’s true identity, he posed a tremendous threat in their eyes. Their sole recourse was to kill him completely.
But attempting that now, when he shared their cultivation level and even greater heaven-defying might, was plainly impossible. Unless a saint king or quasi-emperor themselves made a move.
“If this is truly so, then we must make our own preparations. Otherwise, I’m afraid this so-called Ancient Pact of ours risks becoming a laughingstock!”
The Heavenly Wolf’s icy blue eyes opened and closed slightly as frigid, sharp light erupted from within. His voice had reached extreme iciness.
A day passed.
A hundred thousand miles away.
“The Ancient Pact…” Standing atop a white jade divine elephant with his hands clasped behind him, Su Chen muttered to himself, eyes profound. This wasn’t his first time catching wind of that term.
Several days prior, Long Wu had reminded him of it through a voice transmission. At the time, however, he remained indifferent.
Not until the Nine-Tailed Crocodile himself mentioned those words did Su Chen have no choice but to treat it gravely, even if he still wasn’t taking it to heart.
Presently, he still lacked a clear grasp of this Ancient Pact business. But a bit of inference made its essential nature plain enough – it was an agreement by the myriad races targeting humans.
Because humans had grown too prominent here, while ancient myriad races struggled for purchase. Only in the Southern Region could they still cling to absolute dominion.
In the East Barrens, however, even a powerful race like the Golden Crow Clan who once reigned as the imperial family of the demons would have to defer to mankind.
“Senior Brother, could those Southern Region beings still be harboring an undying ambition to restore the ancient era?”
Behind Su Chen, Mu Qingxue gazed at the void up ahead. After lengthy deliberation, she spoke up slowly. She was no longer the clueless young lass from back then, now boasting some savvy regarding the cultivation world’s affairs.
In ancient times, ancient myriad races and humans had a relationship of parity. Go further back and even mankind would have to consider the ancient myriad races’ attitudes.
At that time, those races enjoyed absolute authority while humans existed only to serve – enslaved by them.
Yet as time elapsed, the human race steadily grew mightier, toppling the ancient races’ rule and ceaselessly seizing vast territories. The ancient myriad races’ living spaces were naturally squeezed beyond limits.
“Perhaps it’s not merely the ancient era…” Su Chen smiled faintly, gazing afar pensively. “Am 1 right about that, Fellow Daoist White Elephant?”
“Hmph!”
His response, however, was a muffled cold harrumph.
The white jade divine elephant beneath his feet was colossal, resembling a small mountain – thousands of feet tall, heaven-reaching, and earth-supporting. Its entire body suffused divine radiance, cultivation having attained the late stage of the Saint Realm and bordering the threshold of Divinity. None would dare show it the slightest disrespect.
Even amidst the ancient myriad races, it stood out as a powerful expert. And yet today, it had been reduced to another’s mount – a source of tremendous humiliation!
Just yesterday, it had been scouting a planet for opportunity when it discovered a hundred-thousand-year divine medicine, reaching to pluck the herb. Suddenly, an enormous fist wreathed in golden divine light descended from above and with but a single punch, smacked it from human form back into primal state.
Next thing it knew, restrictions had been planted and against its will, it became this human’s new mount! After such mistreatment, the man actually still sought its counsel? What nonsense!
Unless…he deigned to release it perhaps. Though even freed, imparting intelligence regarding the Ancient Pact was uncertain. One must understand that the pact was no casual affair. As a Saint Realm master itself, it only grasped some superficial details. Still, even that much wasn’t information it dared divulge recklessly. The consequences of a slip would surely be dire.
“If Fellow Daoist remains unwilling to elaborate, no matter. Truth surfaces in due time. Besides, in this age, I’m afraid just the Southern Region itself lacks sufficient influence.”
Su Chen eyed the white jade divine elephant casually as he spoke aloofly. Immediately, it bristled in displeasure, refusing to show weakness.
“Heh…heh… That might not hold true! Let me tell you – the waters here run deeper than you can fathom! With your Great Saint Realm cultivation base, you’ll need to watch your step around these parts. Don’t go wetting your pants! The experts of our myriad races are stronger than you imagine. I advise you to release me, or else when you encounter the formidable experts from our side, you’ll be in for a tough time..”
