Qin Chen’s hair stood on end. This old man was too creepy. He was sure that the other party’s cultivation was far above his own. After all, the pressure that this old man gave him was even greater than Supreme Sage Peng Kong’s.
“Senior, I’ve already given you the Five-feathers Fan. What do you want?” Qin Chen asked.
The old man hesitated for a moment, then repeated the same sentence, “Dead, all dead, they are all dead!”
Qin Chen’s face was filled with question marks. Could this old man be a lunatic who had lost his mind? He had no choice but to ignore the old man and fly toward the Taiyi Holy Land.
“Greetings, Elder King!”
When Qin Chen returned to the Taiyi Main Hall, many people greeted him along the way. However, he found it strange that these people seemed to not see the old man and did not mention the latter at all.
“Elder King, the time for the Myriad Race Gathering has been set. It’s in two months. Are you going?” Ling Ran came forward and asked.
Qin Chen could not help but ask, “Can’t you see the senior beside me?”
“A senior?” Ling Ran exclaimed. A person who could be addressed as a “senior” by the Elder King must be an expert in the Supreme Sage realm.
However, she followed Qin Chen’s gaze and saw nothing. Thus, she shook her head and said, “Elder King, I only see you. I don’t see the senior you’re talking about.”
Qin Chen frowned and activated his Chaotic Holy Body. Two rays of golden light shot out from his eyes and he discovered to his shock that the old man was surrounded by tens of thousands of paths.
As a result, even a Supreme Sage might not be able to discover the old man, let alone Ling Ran, who was a Venerable.
Looking at Qin Chen’s shocked expression, Ling Ran asked curiously, “Elder King, is there something beside you?”
Qin Chen clicked his tongue and hesitated for a moment. He decided not to tell her so as not to cause unnecessary panic. So, he shook his head and replied, “It’s nothing. I’ll go to the Myriad Races Gathering, but don’t tell the outside world about this yet.”
“Yes, Elder King!” Ling Ran nodded and left immediately.
Two days later!
“Dead, they’re all dead, they’re all dead! Dead, they’re all dead, they’re all dead!”
The crazy old man had been repeating this sentence for the past two days.
At the same time, Qin Chen also realized that he was the only one in the entire Taiyi Holy Land who could see and hear the old man. The whole matter was so creepy that Qin Chen could feel his scalp tingling.
In the past two days, he had thought of many ways. He had even tried using his Emperor-level supernormal knowledge to make a move against the crazy old man. However, all of his attacks were blocked by the myriad paths around the crazy old man, and the target was not injured at all.
The crazy old man’s harassment lasted day and night. Qin Chen finally couldn’t stand it anymore and asked, “Senior, who died? Who are they? Who died? If they were dead, who were they? Who are they?”
The crazy old man clutched his head and roared. An aura dozens of times more terrifying than a Supreme Sage’s aura struck, sending Qin Chen flying. The entire Taiyi Holy Land was shaking.
“What’s going on? An earthquake?”
“It seems to be coming from the Elder King’s hall. Could it be that the Elder King is about to break through?”
“I don’t think it’s a breakthrough. A breakthrough wouldn’t cause such a commotion. Maybe it’s the commotion caused by Elder King’s weapon refinement.”
“Why would there be such a big commotion when refining a weapon? This isn’t a weapon tribulation!”
The disciples of the Taiyi Holy Land were all confused. They did not know what had happened. Ling Ran also rushed over with a group of elders. However, when they arrived outside the main hall, they felt terrifying pressure. All of them stopped, and no one dared to go forward.
In the main hall, Qin Chen stood at the side with his hair standing on end. The crazy old man was definitely the most terrifying person he had ever met. He stood far away and shouted, “Senior, what exactly do you want?”
The crazy old man turned around and appeared before Qin Chen like a ghost. He asked, “Who are they?”
“Senior, how would I know who they are? You have to ask yourself!” Qin Chen let out a dry cough and forced a smile on his face. He took two steps back, once again increasing the distance between him and the crazy old man.
“Who are they? Who are they?” The crazy old man mumbled. He retracted the terrifying pressure from his body and repeated this sentence again and again.
Seeing that the crazy old man had returned to “normal”, Qin Chen heaved a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Ling Ran’s voice came from outside the door, “Elder King, are you alright? Do you need our help?”
Hearing Ling Ran’s words, Qin Chen shouted, “I’m fine. You guys can go and do what you need to do!”
After receiving a reply, Ling Ran and the others left. Qin Chen continued his closed-door cultivation. Although the crazy old man was still standing by his side and repeating the same words, Qin Chen chose to ignore the other party after the previous lesson. He did not dare to provoke him again.
Two months passed, and Qin Chen’s cultivation rose to level 8 of the Sage King realm with the help of pills and the various rewards he had received from checking in.
However, the Five-feathers Fan that he had refined was still in the hands of the crazy old man. It could be said that he had worked for nothing.
On this day, the experts of the human race and the ten thousand ancient races all rushed to Haihuang City in the East Sea, preparing to witness the Myriad Race Gathering.
A golden-winged roc flew over and transformed into a human. It landed on the top of Haihuang City and shouted, “Elder King of the human race, the roc imperial clan has come to settle the score!”
Supreme Sage Peng Kong’s voice reverberated throughout the entire Haihuang City. However, there was still no sign of the human Elder King. This caused many to sigh.
“Could it be that the human race’s Elder King is scared and doesn’t dare to come?”
“Today, a Lord of the primordial sage race will seek him out to settle the score. Naturally, he would not dare to come.”
“So what if he’s invincible? Isn’t he now a turtle hiding in its shell that doesn’t dare to show his face?”
After not getting a reply for a long time, Supreme Sage Peng Kong lost his patience and shouted, “Elder King of the human race, if you don’t come out today, I will slaughter the entire Haihuang City.”
With that, the aura of a Supreme Sage gushed out and enveloped the entire Haihuang City. The residents of the city were all terrified. Some of the weaker ones even knelt and begged for their lives.
“Don’t you dare!” A voice came from the horizon.
Seven figures stepped into the void and arrived at the top of Haihuang City’s city wall. Their auras were extremely terrifying. Five of them were Supreme Sages while the other two were level 9 Sage Kings.
“The human race actually has five Supreme Sages! Weren’t there only three of them before?”
“What’s the big deal with five Supreme Sages? The ten thousand ancient races already have more than ten Supreme Sages that are known. The human race is still far from that!”
“You’re right. If the human race only has this much power, they won’t have any say in the Myriad Race Gathering.”
“In this Myriad Race Gathering, the ten thousand ancient races will wash away our past humiliation and rule this land once more.”
Seeing the seven top-class human experts appear, the ten thousand ancient races weren’t afraid at all. Instead, they used all sorts of provocative words to enrage the seven human experts, causing them to explode with heaven-shaking Sagely might!
