“Although the Mystic Eyes are unique, they are on par with the Longevity Immortal Body. If you fight Qin Yuan now, you do have a small chance of winning,” Su Chen said slowly.
“Then…Big Brother, will you come watch the battle?” Qin Hao’s eyes lit up as he looked at Su Chen hopefully.
“If I have time, I might go,” Su Chen gave an ambiguous answer. After annihilating the Spirit Race, he had his own matters to attend to.
For example, reforging the Azure Dragon Sword. With his current cultivation, it was almost impossible to raise the Azure Dragon Sword to the level of a sacred weapon. However, making it surpa.s.s the level of a supreme-grade Dao weapon was not difficult.
In the end, whether it was a sacred weapon or an imperial weapon, the materials used were critical! But even more important was the person forging the weapon! No matter what, a saint or quasi-emperor could not refine an imperial weapon. Even if Huo Xi had the materials to forge an immortal weapon, she couldn’t actually make one. Only saints could refine sacred weapons, as they could engrave their comprehension of the laws into the weapon, causing a qualitative change.
What Su Chen wanted to refine was an embryo of a sacred weapon. As long as he reached the required cultivation level, the Azure Dragon Sword could quickly become a genuine sacred weapon.
“Then what are your plans next, Big Brother?” Qin Hao asked curiously. From Su Chen’s words, he keenly sensed that Su Chen seemed to have something big planned next.
“1 want to go to the Emperor’s Pool,” Su Chen said casually.
“The Emperor’s Pool?” At this, Qin Hao and Cao Yun exclaimed. Only Long Wu frowned slightly, not knowing what had happened. The time she had sealed herself was too long ago. The entire world had undergone earth-shattering changes. There were many brilliant existences during this time that she was unclear about the details of, which was reasonable.
“Senior Brother, why do you want to go there?” Cao Yun pondered briefly before asking curiously.
Emperor’s Pool! These two words had great fame in the entire world, let alone in the East Barrens. Although the name sounded like just a pool, not a forbidden area, in the eyes of the world, the Emperor’s Pool was no less than a forbidden land. After all, anything involving the word “Emperor” was terrifying.
The Emperor’s Pool was so famous mainly because it had another name — the Great Emperor’s Weapon Refinement Ground! Since ancient times, several great emperors had gone to the Emperor’s Pool to refine weapons.
The last descendant of a great emperor was a bit unorthodox. They had directly taken Emperor’s Pool for themselves. From this, one could see that the great emperor’s descendants were very difficult to deal with. If you wanted to borrow the Emperor’s Pool from them, you’d need a Great Emperor Realm master to intervene. Otherwise, even if a Quasi-Emperor Realm powerhouse went, they wouldn’t give face.
Because they were also an imperial clan! Their clan had an imperial weapon suppressing it, and even a Great Emperor Killing Formation. Although trapping and killing a Great Emperor Realm master was likely impossible, trapping and killing a Quasi-Emperor Realm one was not difficult for them.
Su Chen was not a great emperor now, not even a saint. If he went to the Emperor’s Pool now, they might not give him face. After all, a prodigy was still a prodigy. Before completely growing up, it was difficult for everyone to hold them in awe.
In the end, there were too many fallen prodigies in history, some even more talented than Su Chen.
“To forge a weapon,” Su Chen said casually. Although he spoke lightly, Qin Hao and Cao Yun understood. Su Chen was preparing to become a saint.
In today’s world, other than some rogue cultivators becoming saints, or the Supreme Elder of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect suddenly becoming a saint, most other holy lands’ elders would refine their own sacred weapon in advance before becoming a saint. Then, after becoming a saint, they could quickly brew their own sacred weapon by engraving their comprehension of the Laws onto it.
“The great emperor’s descendants…don’t seem easy to deal with!” Cao Yun said slowly. Over the years, he had seen much in the East Barrens. He was different from Qin Hao. Qin Hao only wanted revenge. As for him, he didn’t have any enemies. Generally, if he met an enemy, that person would not live to see the next day’s sun. Hence, he was able to hear about the East Barrens’ anomalies.
The Emperor’s Pool was one he had heard about.
“No worries.” Su Chen waved his hand and said smilingly, “Back then, I met an elder of the Emperor’s Pool once in the G.o.d Demon Sect’s small world.”
To be precise, that elder of the Emperor’s Pool had received his favor. If he remembered correctly, that elder’s strength seemed to be at the peak stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm. After he went, he could see if the other party could invest. If it was possible, he didn’t mind letting that elder have an ascension on the spot.
A Quasi-Saint Realm elder might lack authority in the Emperor’s Pool, but a saint speaking up would be enough. If he could rope in the great emperor’s descendants, it would greatly benefit him whether against the Qin family, Dashang, or the Infinite Demon Sect.
“I see!” Cao Yun and the others came to a realization. No wonder Senior Brother wanted to go to the Emperor’s Pool, it turned out he had an old friend there. This way, it was much more convenient.
“Since Senior Brother already has plans for the next step, I’ll take my leave for now,” Cao Yun cupped his fists and said. The main reason he had followed Qin Hao to the Spirit Race was because of Su Chen. If Su Chen wasn’t his Senior Brother, with his personality, he would never risk his life with Qin Hao.
After all, what kind of place was the Spirit Race? It was a force with a long history! Fortunately, Su Chen had come at the last moment. If he hadn’t come, the two of them might have had to flee by now.
Especially when he recalled Qin Hao being marked by a saint at the last moment. At that time, Cao Yun had broken out in a cold sweat from fear. Now everything was settled, so Cao Yun planned to travel around to see if he could find some opportunities for himself.
As for Qin Hao, he really didn’t dare continue following him, afraid of being dragged into a pit unknowingly.
“No rush, no rush.” Su Chen stretched out a hand and pressed down slightly. With a warm smile, he said, “Quite a few saw you two’s true appearances on the Spirit Race island. If you travel outside, it’s hard to guarantee no one will make a move against you..”
