Chapter 425: Who Said Humans Had No Saints?
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
At this moment, if Huo Xi had some fortuitous opportunities, she could instantly become a Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouse. Such rapid cultivation would shock countless in the outside world.
Because even someone as mighty as Qin Yuan was only at the late stage of the Nirvana Realm currently. Yet Huo Xi had already reached the peak stage of the Nirvana Realm. This was simply inconceivable.
Even Su Chen would have to exclaim upon seeing her, “As expected of the Eternal Forbidden Body. Simply terrifying.”
“If only Big Brother Su Chen was here,” Huo Xi mused, her beautiful face filled with reminiscence.
Her thoughts drifted back to that day Su Chen had suppressed countless forces at the Purple Clouds Holy Land. Even the formidable Qin family was forced to swallow their ire.
One had to understand, the Qin family was a supreme power with a quasi-emperor. In the Southern Region, it would be a crushing blow. Dominating the land would be a simple matter of lifting their fingers. Yet even such a power was unwilling to provoke Su Chen.
Very quickly, Huo Xi retracted her thoughts and shook her head regretfully, sighing. She knew this was unrealistic.
At that time, Su Chen’s cultivation had only been slightly higher than hers, with very limited strength. In such a short period, even if Su Chen had improved further, it would not be too drastic.
The key reason Su Chen could suppress so many forces at Purple Clouds Holy Land was his background. However…
This would not work in the Southern Region. Although some may have heard of Su Chen’s name, it was merely in pa.s.sing. His influence was insufficient to impact the entire Southern Region. It would be impossible for Su Chen alone to resist a saint, let alone an ancient one!
As everyone knew, any item from ancient times that could be pa.s.sed down to the present was a priceless treasure, not to mention a living being. Those who could survive to this era must have had a few life-saving trump cards. After all, without life-saving trump cards, they would have perished in ancient times and never lived to see this day.
Just as countless humans in Kun City sank into despair, boom! An overwhelming saintly aura surged over, instantly enveloping a radius of ten hundred miles.
Immediately after, an elderly white-haired man in gray robes slowly walked over from the distance.
His body was emaciated, like a walking skeleton. His eye sockets were deeply sunken, and his robes hung loosely on his frame. It seemed a gust of wind could easily blow him over.
The only difference was his eyes were filled with the vicissitudes of life, yet also extremely bright, like two stars in the cold night illuminating the universe.
His appearance caused the entire Kun City to boil. Countless human experts shouted.
“This is…”
“Hahaha, the saint of our human race!”
“I didn’t expect there to be a human saint in the Southern Region!”
“Who said our human race has no saints?”
How many years had it been? Those present were unsure, but they knew that in the last 10,000 years, there was no record of a human becoming a saint in the Southern Region. Not even one had returned after becoming a saint outside the Southern Region.
It was almost certain this human saint had become one 10,000 years ago at the latest. However, none could identify who he was exactly.
The human saint stood in the void with one hand behind his back. His sunken eyes glimmered coldly at the hidden ancient saint as he spoke in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Fellow Daoist, are you perhaps being a bit too domineering?”
His figure was not tall, and his back was hunched from old age. Yet he still stood there steadily, like a ballast stabilizing the terrified hearts of the humans.
The Southern Region differed greatly from other domains. At this time, a human saint appearing was far too important to them. Perhaps, this was the only remaining human saint in their Southern Region!
“Human… There’s also a saint in humans?”
A frigid voice resounded between heaven and earth, reverberating in the void.
It carried a killing intent, causing all the humans in Kun City to feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave, as though stared at by a supreme demon G.o.d. They felt a knife edge at their back, unable to sit still, as if supreme terror would extinguish them the next second!
“Why can’t humans have their saints?” The elder in gray could sense the ancient saint’s pressure yet remained expressionless, speaking calmly.
“Haha… Humans are but lowly servants, and servants should not have saints!” Cold laughter echoed from the void.
Immediately after, as the voice faded, a majestic figure emerged in the void.
He wore a long black robe and had the head of a beast and the body of a man, appearing tall and st.u.r.dy. On his back was a pair of black wings wrapped in dazzling scarlet thunderforce.
The instant he appeared, supreme might erupted. It surged like a tsunami. In Kun City, countless humans involuntarily knelt, as if facing a lofty G.o.d.
He effortlessly exuded an incomparable aura, his innate presence unbearable. This was the might of an ancient saint. Merely standing there casually made all humans kneel.
Looking around, only a handful of humans in Kun City could still stand.
“With me here today, no human shall enter the Chaotic Sea Star Region! Not even a quasi-emperor can stop it!”
The beast-headed ancient saint strode towards Kun City, extremely self-a.s.sured. The formidable saintly aura flowed like chaotic fog. The world warped and every being present was shaken.
“This is too much!” Many humans were secretly enraged, but it was futile. The pressure of a Saint Realm powerhouse was far too terrifying.
Those yet to reach the Saint Realm felt as if facing a deity when confronting him, completely powerless. All under the Saint Realm were ants. Even if they attacked together, they could not compare to a single finger of the opponent.
Perhaps the other party wouldn’t even need to attack. A single glance could heavily injure most of those present.
Right now, the Chaotic Sea Star Region had fully opened. Although the inheritance within could not have appeared this quickly, everyone knew that the more time dragged on, the more advantageous for the other Southern Region races.
After all, apart from humans, the other races were not lacking those blessed with great providence. It would be difficult to prevent some supremely fortunate person from obtaining the World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance upon immediately entering the Chaotic Sea Star Region..
