These two were undoubtedly the amba.s.sadors sent by the Shadowless Hall. It was not easy to gauge their true strength. However, from the power exuded in their every action, it could be roughly determined that they were at least at the Quasi-Saint Realm.
In the entire Southern Region, a quasi-saint was a mighty figure indeed! With a stomp of their feet, the whole Southern Region would tremble. As for Saint Realm experts…they did not dare imagine it. For it had been many years since a Saint Realm expert appeared in the Southern Region.
“Amba.s.sador?” Su Chen was dressed in purple robes, Dao runes circulating around him, his aura extraordinary. Hearing the words of the Heavenly Path Sect’s Supreme Elder, a faint smile appeared as he produced a jade slip, white light circulating over it.
“I’m afraid there has been a misunderstanding,” he said. “I’m not of the Shadowless Hall.”
“Hmm?” Hearing this, everyone’s expressions changed, especially Supreme Elder Xu Zheng. Originally a glimmer of hope had risen in his heart, but it was shattered in an instant by Su Chen’s words.
How many years had they waited? Even they could not recall clearly. Yet in the end, after waiting so long, this was the only outcome? If even Su Chen was not of the Shadowless Hall, then the Shadowless Hall had likely long forgotten them.
The truth was, this was indeed the case. The current Heavenly Path Sect was not even ranked in the entire East Barrens, while the Shadowless Hall was a transcendent power there, above countless sects and empires. And this was only a branch. How could they have time to care for their insignificant Heavenly Path Sect?
“In that case, why has Senior come today…?” Xu Zheng cautiously probed. The young man before him did not seem old, but due to his terrifying strength, even Xu Zheng as Supreme Elder had no choice but to treat him gravely. After all, anyone who could borrow the Shadowless Hall’s teleportation formation was no ordinary person.
“I want to go to the Chaotic Sea Star Region!” Su Chen’s spiritual sense swept over the jade slip in his hand as he spoke slowly. Ye Ruxue had just told him this name.
She had already ventured deep into the Chaotic Sea Star Region, searching for the so-called inheritance of the World-Transcending Sword Hall. After many years, she had searched for several years yet found nothing. Even with the advantage of being reborn and having foresight, sometimes success was not so easy. After searching for so long, not only had she failed to obtain the inheritance, but she had also attracted some trouble. Even Ye Ruxue was struggling to deal with it all. As a last resort, she had asked Su Chen for help.
After all, as a reborn person, Ye Ruxue only had memories from her past. Before fully maturing, she was merely a rogue cultivator, far inferior to the major factions.
“Chaotic Sea Star Region?” In the Heavenly Path Sect’s hall, most were at a loss. After all, the current Heavenly Path Sect was too weak, lacking its former prestige. Due to the vastness of the Southern Region and the loss of many ancient records, these four words were now extremely unfamiliar to them.
Supreme Elder Xu Zheng, however, seemed to recall something upon hearing Su Chen’s words. Curious, he asked, “Senior, are you speaking of the inheritance of the World-Transcending Sword Hall?”
“World-Transcending Sword Hall?” Su Chen raised his brows. He was unclear on the full details. Ye Ruxue seemed to be sealed somewhere, so the information coming through was very limited, only mentioning the Chaotic Sea Star Region and World-Transcending Sword Hall. However, he was unfamiliar with both places.
He had already secretly asked Long Wu. She had indeed heard of the Chaotic Sea Star Region, but those words were too mysterious for her. That region did not necessarily appear in a fixed place. In other words, the Chaotic Sea Star Region was a star field drifting in the cosmic void. It could appear or vanish at any time, in random locations. Finding it already represented a kind of luck in itself. Whether one could enter and obtain inheritances completely depended on their fortune.
Countless experts had fallen in the Chaotic Sea Star Region since ancient times. According to Long Wu, it was said that even Quasi-Emperor Realm experts had perished there. This news was also shocking, meaning that even existences as strong as quasi-emperors were not safe inside the Chaotic Sea Star Region. At the same time, it implied the World-Transcending Sword Hall’s inheritance hidden there could tempt even Quasi-Emperor Realm experts.
“It seems you know of the Chaotic Sea Star Region’s whereabouts,” Su Chen remarked with a smile to the Heavenly Path Sect’s Supreme Elder.
“Well…” Xu Zheng forced an awkward smile and shook his head helplessly. “1 won’t hide it from Senior, but I truly don’t know the whereabouts of the Chaotic Sea Star Region. The reason I have heard this name is because of a small matter… Around half a year ago, a young person offended the ancient royal clan and was hunted by countless experts. With nowhere to turn, the young person finally hid inside the Chaotic Sea Star Region. However, a powerful being once said the Chaotic Sea Star Region had yet to open, so outsiders could not enter. Thus, those ancient royal clan experts all remained stationed outside, lying in wait, never leaving. As for how that young person entered the Chaotic Sea Star Region, 1 have no idea.”
Xu Zheng heaved a faint sigh, his face full of helplessness. If this was the Heavenly Path Sect at its peak, they would have involved themselves no matter what when the Chaotic Sea Star Region emerged. But now it was impossible. Their sect had declined too greatly. Even if they could make it in time, they lacked the courage to partic.i.p.ate, lest they get burned!
One had to know that those ancient royal clans were no ordinary people. It was not impossible for a few Saint Realm experts to emerge from their sealed lands. Those Saint Realm experts could crush them thousands of times over with might alone.. So how could they get involved?
