Themselves

Of course.
If he had the help of the medicinal bath, his progress would be even faster.
When he returned, he could take a look around Imperial Supreme City and see if there were any spiritual herbs suitable for the Golden Jade Gla.s.s Art.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave first!” the middle-aged man said with a smile.
“I won’t send you off!”
Su Chen replied indifferently.
After sending off the middle-aged man, Elder Fan walked over with a blissful smile on his face.
Although today’s matter had some twists and turns, overall, the Great Mystery Sect was the biggest winner.
As for offending the Everlasting Sect?
Elder Fan really didn’t take this to heart.
After all.
The two forces already had deep enmity between them.
In addition, the Great Mystery Sect wasn’t weaker than the Everlasting Sect, so the Everlasting Sect wouldn’t dare to start a war without absolute confidence.
Elder Fan couldn’t help but laugh out loud when he thought about how the Great Mystery Sect had a peerless demon like Su Chen and a genius disciple like Mu Qingxue.
When Su Chen and Mu Xue had both grown up, even the Dachu Empire would have to act according to the opinions of the Great Mystery Sect!
After praising Su Chen and Mu Qingxue, Elder Fan waved his sleeve and summoned her flying spiritual treasure. She called all the disciples to fly toward their residences.
Compared to the Great Mystery Sect, the Everlasting Sec was in a gloomy mood.
Their team leader and the leader of the Great Mystery Sect exchanged blows.
However, just one exchange of blows immediately revealed the difference in strength between the two sides.
If that were all, it would have been fine.
However, the critical point was that one of their genius disciples had been killed by Mu Qingxue from the Great Mystery Sect.
They wanted to take revenge, but they couldn’t find a valid reason.
After all.
The Everlasting Sect genius who died at Mu Qingxue’s hands didn’t admit defeat until his death.
Since he did not admit defeat, it meant that the battle between the two sides was still going on.
Mu Qingxue’s attack on him could only be condemned from a moral standpoint.
But other than that, they couldn’t find any faults.
However, the disciples of the Everlasting Sect couldn’t just let it go.
“Elder, why did you stop me today?”
In the room, Situ Feng stood in front of the window, exuding a terrifying killing intent.
He was obviously dissatisfied with the elder of the Everlasting Sect who had stopped him today.
He knew that he was no match for Su Chen.
But what if he used a demonic beast?
Once the demonic beast was released, in his opinion, the outcome between him and Su Chen was still unknown!
“I wasn’t stopping you, 1 was saving you!”
The Everlasting Sect’s elder sat cross-legged on the bed, his gray hair draped over his shoulders. His eyes were extremely sharp as if they could see through people’s hearts. He stared at Situ Feng and said,
“Do you think you can fight Su Chen from the Great Mystery Sect just by releasing your demonic beast today?”
“That’s natural.”
Situ Feng said confidently.
“If you release the demonic beast, you indeed have the strength to fight him.”
The Everlasting Sect elder nodded.
“Then why did Elder stop me?”
Situ Feng asked in confusion.
“Foolish!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the elder shouted coldly. Light flowed in his eyes as he said in a deep voice,
“Su Chen’s movement technique is terrifying. With his speed, do you think he will give you a chance to release the demonic beast? The moment the aura of your demonic beast diffuses from your demonic beast bag, Su Chen will already be prepared to attack. If I hadn’t stopped you, you would have died the moment you released the demonic beast! Without your control, no matter how terrifying the demonic beast in your demonic beast bag is, even if it has the bloodline of the ancient Qiong Qi, it’s just an ownerless demonic beast in the eyes of others! When the time comes, Su Chen won’t even need to make a move. North Vanquishing King can crush it with a thought!”
“This…”
Situ Feng hesitated and said, “Elder, aren’t you overestimating others and underestimating yourself? Su Chen…Is he really that powerful?”
“Haha…”
When the Everlasting Sect elder heard this, he sneered. He looked at Situ Feng and shook his head.
“Even I can’t see through Su Chen! He might have already stepped into the Forbidden Stage of the Qi Sea Realm! However, one thing I can guarantee is that without the help of the demonic beasts, Su Chen can defeat you with a single move!”
Hearing the elder’s words, Situ Feng’s eyes flickered with shock, but his face appeared somewhat dejected.
He originally thought that he was already one of the best among the young generation of the Dachu Empire.
However, he did not expect the gap between him and Su Chen to be so huge.
If these words came from someone else, he would not believe it at all.
However, since these words came from his own elder, the authenticity thereof had reached its peak.
“You don’t have to be so disheartened. Su Chen had already entered the Forbidden Stage in the Qi Gathering Realm. With his experience, it will be effortless for him to enter the Forbidden Stage again in the Qi Sea Realm. There is something you need in the Hundred Demon Battlefield. Once you obtain it, the demonic beasts in your hands will be able to advance further, and it will be easy for you to enter the Forbidden Stage. At that time, not to mention Su Chen, even if all the prodigies in the entire Dachu were combined, they wouldn’t be your match!”
The Everlasting Sect elder gently reminded.
His main goal was to let Situ Feng realize the gap between him and Su Chen, not to dampen his confidence.
“What do 1 need, Elder?”
Upon hearing this, Situ Feng suddenly raised his head, his face filled with hope. “Ancient Qiong Qi blood!”
The elder said in a deep voice.
“Now that things have come to this, I won’t hide it from you anymore!”
“There are two drops of divine blood in the Hundred Demon Battlefield that are extremely important. One is the blood of the ancient Qiong Qi, and the other is the blood of the Vermillion Bird! When you enter the Hundred Demon Battlefield, someone will help you get the blood of Qiong Qi, but at the same time, you need to help him get the blood of the Vermillion Bird!”
“May I know who the person is, Elder?”
Situ Feng asked again.
“I can’t tell you the exact ident.i.ty of the other person for the time being, but I can tell you one thing. The other person is from the Dashang Empire!”
The Everlasting Sect elder looked serious as he slowly spoke.
“The Dashang Empire?”
Situ Feng narrowed his eyes.
But he quickly stopped thinking about it.
At this moment, his mind was completely focused on the blood of Qiong Qi.
Although it was only the blood of the Qiong Qi and not the blood essence of the Qiong Qi, its value was still very terrifying.
If the demonic beast in his hand swallowed it, it would probably instantly break through a major realm.
Once the demonic beast he contracted broke through, it would be a genuine G.o.d Altar Realm demonic beast!
A G.o.d Altar Realm demonic beast that contained the ancient Qiong Qi bloodline.
Just as the elder had said, Su Chen would never be his match!
