Chapter 336: Challenging Su Chen
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“This is… Qin Yuan!”
“I didn’t expect him to come too!”
“The only genius in history endowed with two peerless talents!”
“What he said just now should be considered a challenge. It remains to be seen whether Qin Hao can be a match for Qin Yuan after transcending the Nirvana Tribulation.”
“There’s no need to consider it. The Longevity Body within Qin Yuan originally belonged to Qin Hao. The current Qin Hao is just a faster-cultivating genius. He can’t compare to Qin Yuan at all.”
“Perhaps only Su Chen can defeat Qin Yuan.”
“Is there any doubt? Su Chen has already reached the Quasi-Saint Realm. He could easily crush Qin Yuan with a single hand!”
The onlookers’ eyes lit up. This was the first time the world-famous prodigy Qin Yuan had ventured into the outside world. Especially as soon as Qin Yuan appeared, he issued a challenge to Qin Hao.
Many were curious about what the confrontation between the two would look like.
“In my opinion, it’s very likely Qin Hao won’t accept the challenge!” An elder cultivator shook his head.
The gap between Qin Yuan and Qin Hao was far too vast. If it was just a Longevity Immortal Body, that would be one thing. But the issue was… Qin Yuan had been cultivating in the Shadowless Hall.
On the other hand, Qin Hao seemed reduced to a rogue cultivator. With his foundation, he was no match for Qin Yuan.
Additionally, no one knew how many Nirvana Tribulations Qin Hao had transcended. This made judging Qin Hao’s battle prowess even more difficult.
“In ten years, i will personally go to the Great Mystery Sacred Sect to fight Su Chen!”
Qin Yuan’s shocking words left no room for compromise. He had thrown down another heavy gauntlet. In an instant, the formerly silent Spirit Race island erupted in commotion.
“Su Chen has already reached the Quasi-Saint Realm, yet Qin Yuan dares to fight him. Does he truly believe he can catch up to Su Chen’s footsteps in ten years?”
In the shadows, a saint frowned.
However, some held differing views.
“Although Qin Yuan’s Longevity Immortal Body formed after birth, after so many years it has long since fused with him. With the support of two talents, it might not be impossible for him to catch up to Su Chen in ten years! After all, Su Chen has only one divine body! Let’s recall, Su Chen annihilating the Spirit Race is an indisputable fact. The Qin family cannot sit idly by. However, sending experts to deal with Su Chen is unrealistic! On the contrary, this kind of challenge is the safest approach! If Su Chen doesn’t accept the challenge in ten years, it could leave a shadow in his heart…”
At this point, the speaker’s eyes brightened as he chuckled, “Most importantly, whether it’s Su Chen, Qin Hao, or Qin Yuan, they are all young prodigies, virtually invincible among their peers. You could say they are extremely arrogant!”
“If Qin Yuan can catch up to Su Chen in ten years, it will impact Su Chen whether he wins or loses! But for Qin Yuan, there is little downside. After all, he’s much younger than Su Chen, so defeat would be reasonable!”
“I see!”
Many who overheard the discussion nodded surrept.i.tiously.
Qin Yuan’s challenge clearly discounted Qin Hao. Instead, it mainly targeted Su Chen! Unless, ten years later, Su Chen could easily defeat him. Otherwise, no matter the outcome, Qin Yuan’s goal would be achieved.
Half a day later, outside the Spirit Race island, the people who had rushed over gradually dispersed.
At the same time, news of the Spirit Race’s destruction spread.
In less than half a day, this powerful force was completely annihilated. This shocked countless people and factions. Even more unimaginable was the perpetrator – Su Chen!
It was astonishing that the Great Mystery Holy Son already had power enough to destroy a ten-thousand-year legacy!
One had to know that even if another holy land moved against the Spirit Race, it would be impossible to end the battle so quickly. What surprised everyone was the Qin family, despite their marriage alliance, seemed to have no intention of retaliating for the Spirit Race’s destruction. Because if they made a move, it would definitely be against the Great Mystery Sacred Sect first.
However, the result left many jaws dropped. The Qin family only released news of Qin Yuan’s challenge to Su Chen. And then… Nothing more.
This outcome defied many expectations. It was a bit out of character for the Qin family. In truth, the Qin family acted this way because they were forced to. Within their family was an unstable element, the Ninth Ancestor!
At this juncture, dealing with the Great Mystery Sacred Sect was easy. However, for Su Chen and the saint king behind him… The Qin family had to weigh carefully.
What if the Ninth Ancestor returned while the Qin family dealt with Su Chen? Given his temperament, the Qin family could end up attacked from both front and back. Could a quasi-emperor nearing his lifespan’s end suppress the situation? Even the Qin family wasn’t fully confident.
“Hey, have you heard? The Spirit Race was wiped out not long ago!”
“Of course I have! It seems the Great Mystery Holy Son Su Chen led the attack to destroy them!”
“That Great Mystery Holy Son is only at the Quasi-Saint Realm, yet he actually has a saint king following him. It’s simply unbelievable!”
“I wonder how that Great Mystery Holy Son accomplished it?”
“The Spirit Race was destroyed, and that Qin family genius even issued a challenge to Su Chen. 1 wonder what will happen in ten years!”
In an ancient city, many cultivators discussed the events on the Spirit Race island. In fact, not only here, but other places also buzzed about this matter. The Spirit Race’s destruction was one of the few shocking events in the East Barrens’ last thousands of years.
In a restaurant, a few striking figures sat in a private room. This restaurant belonged to the cultivation world, off-limits to ordinary people. Those who could enter had some status. To obtain a private room required considerable standing. If not for Su Chen revealing his ident.i.ty, they wouldn’t have sat inside. Of course, if Long Wu leaked some of her aura, things would be different.
Listening to the outside discussions, they couldn’t help but smile. Only Qin Hao’s expression remained the same, even showing a trace of coldness.
“You want to go to the Shadowless Hall?” Su Chen glanced at Qin Hao and asked casually.
“Yes!” Qin Hao nodded.
Previously facing Qin Yuan, he had almost no chance. But now, having also transcended the Nirvana Tribulation and become a Nirvana Realm cultivator, things were different. Moreover… The Longevity Immortal Marrow in his body had started recovering. It was only a matter of time until the Longevity Immortal Body was restored.. With this trump card, even facing Qin Yuan, he might not lose!
