Thirty Years, Half-step Venerable
All the Holy Land elders were excited!
To be able to kill a Qiyao Realm King in an instant, the other party had to be at the peak of the Qiyao Realm at the very least. It was very likely that the other party was an existence that was half a step into the Bahuang Realm. The other party might even be a Venerable of the Bahuang Realm.
If the Taiyi Holy Land had a Bahuang Realm Venerable, it might be able to revive and return to its former peak.
At the very least, a Bahuang Realm Venerable would be enough to make the Taiyi Holy Land inviolable.
After all, it was extremely difficult to produce a Venerable in the Bahuang Realm in the Dharma-Ending Age.
The other Supreme Elders all looked at the Taiyi Holy Lord with excitement. Did the Taiyi Holy Land really have such a terrifying senior?
The Taiyi Holy Lord smiled bitterly, “I’m not sure, but it shouldn’t be the foundational old senior sealed in the holy weapon. Zhao Yi’s arrival was too sudden, and I didn’t have time to summon him.”
Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
They had also rushed to the location the golden light had come from at the first moment, but there was no one there.
The expert that was quite possibly in the Bahuang Realm that had made a move had left a long time ago.
“I didn’t expect there to be such a peerless expert in the Taiyi Holy Land,” The Taiyi Holy Lord sighed, “But I can see that the senior doesn’t want to appear. We shouldn’t force him.”
Hearing this, the other elders all sighed helplessly.
Although all of them hoped that the old senior would step forward to guard the Holy Land, if the senior was not willing to come out, there was nothing they could do.
Ling Ran was the only one who looked pensively at the pair of footprints left on the ground. They gave off a familiar aura.
She was wondering if the person who had made a move just now was the same person who had given her the divine medicine and the “Zixia Heaven-ascending Sutra”.
…
Qin Chen, who had returned to his residence, seemed to have done something ordinary.
More importantly, he didn’t want to show his face in public now. He just wanted to keep a low profile.
Keeping a low profile was the right way!
If the world were to know about him, it would definitely bring about a lot of trouble.
Time passed by, and in the blink of an eye, several years had passed.
It had been thirty years since he had acquired the check-in system, and Qin Chen had also checked in for the thirty years period.
During this period, he checked in all over the Taiyi Holy Land and obtained countless treasures.
He found that the Taiyi Holy Land was really a place of treasure. To think he had gained so many great rewards by just checking in.
He was increasingly sure that the Taiyi Holy Land was no ordinary place. First, there was the Emperor relic of the Chaotic Heavenly Emperor, then there was the quasi-emperor grade weapon. How could this be a simple place?
Of course, because Qin Chen had obtained countless treasures in the past 30 years, his cultivation had also improved by leaps and bounds, reaching a level that ordinary people could not imagine.
Unknowingly, he was already in level nine of the Qiyao Realm, already a half-step Venerable.
In the world of cultivation, it was divided into 10 great realms: Yiyuan, Liangyi, Sancai, Sixiang, Wuxing, Liuhe, Qiyao, Bahuang, Jiutian, and Shifang.
Those in the Liuhe Realm were also known as Grandmasters. The Supreme Elders of the immortal inheritances from the ancient families, Holy Lands, and ancient dynasties were mostly at this level.
Of course, the current Holy Lord of the Taiyi Holy Land was also at this level.
Once one transcended the Liuhe Realm, one could be crowned as a King in the mortal world.
Those in the Qiyao Realm were known as Kings. The Family Lords, Holy Lords, and Imperial Lords of the ancient families, Holy Lands, and ancient dynasties were mostly all in this realm. In the Canglan Continent of the present era, they could be considered super experts who could move unhindered in the world.
Those in the Bahuang Realm were known as Venerables and respected by all.
To even barely manage to advance to the Bahuang Realm, the Kings had to go through the legendary Path-seeking tribulation, and only one out of 20 to 30 Kings could survive it.
After the ancient era, Heaven and Earth suppressed cultivation, and the difficulty of cultivation had increased greatly. Countless geniuses had stopped at the Qiyao Realm. In the entire Canglan Continent, the number of Venerables at the Bahuang Realm could probably be counted with one hand.
There was no doubt that Venerables could already overlook the entire Canglan Continent.
Qin Chen was now at the peak of the Qiyao Realm, only one step away from becoming a Venerable of the Bahuang Realm.
This was even a result of his intentional suppression, not wanting to improve too quickly and cause his foundation to be unstable. Otherwise, he would have broken through long ago.
At the same time, Qin Chen was still keeping a low profile. Although he had reached the peak of the Qiyao Realm in 30 years and with the terrifying potential of the Chaotic Holy Body, the strongest body in history, he could challenge those of a higher realm than him, allowing him to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Bahunag Venerables, he still felt that his strength was not enough and continued to hide in the Taiyi Holy Land.
This was because there had been signs of the ten thousand ancient races emerging in recent years.
Now that Heaven and Earth were gradually recovering and the Dharma-Ending Age was about to end, the ten thousand ancient races would definitely choose to appear in this era.
By then, many Kings and Venerbales would appear, as well as Jiutian Realm Sages. Qin Chen was currently only a peak King on level nine of the Qiyao Realm. He was nothing even in front of Venerables in the Bahuang Realm, let alone Sages in the Jiutian Realm, who were rumored to be able to kill a King in the Qiyao Realm with a single strand of hair.
Therefore, at the current stage, Qin Chen still felt that he had to keep a low profile. He had to become a Jiutian Realm Sage who had proven his path, or even better, reach Shifang Divine Realm before barely showing himself.
Of course, it would be best if he could become an Emperor who had proven his path. Then, he could be invincible.
All this time, to confuse the others in the Holy Land, Qin Chen would continue to check in while making his appearance look older. However, because he could practice martial arts, he only looked forty years old.
The fact that he could not cultivate successfully even after 30 years made the other people in the Taiyi Holy Land even more disappointed in Qin Chen, who was already an abandoned Prince. So of course, they did not pay attention to him and let him continue to sweep the floor.
As for the senior servant, Qin Chen had silently transferred some divine power into him to cleanse his meridians and marrow. The other party could now cultivate, but he had only reached the Liangyi Realm. Though, his lifespan had increased a lot.
After all, he had helped Qin Chen before, so Qin Chen naturally did not want to watch him die of old age.
But he couldn’t let the old servant’s cultivation increase too quickly, or else it would arouse suspicion.
“I’m already on level nine of the Qiyao Realm. The next step is to break through to the Bahuang Realm. It’s said that to reach that realm, one has to seek one’s path, cutting off a part of one’s self, be it emotions, or demonic barriers, and so on. But it will also be a narrow escape, and there is the danger of death. Of course, as far as I’m concerned, with the system, it’s destined that there won’t be much danger,” Qin Chen mumbled to himself as he lay on the wooden bed. He looked at the starry sky through the window. He had decided that his next step would be to seek his path, sever all the shackles, and walk on the path of the strongest.
On this day, Qin Chen went to the Taiyi Main Hall to sweep the floor as usual.
[Congratulations to the host for successfully checking in. You have received the check-in reward: Baoshan Seal!]
[Note: as the host has checked in multiple times at the Taiyi Main Hall, the host can not proceed with the next check-in!]
This was already the umpteenth time Qin Chen had checked in at the Taiyi Main Hall, and he was slightly taken aback when he heard the system’s voice.
However, in the past thirty years, he had checked in at least a hundred times here, so no matter how powerful the divinity here was, it should have been exhausted.
It was fine though, he would just not check in at the Taiyi Main Hall in the future.
All of a sudden, a beautiful figure descended from the sky and landed in the Taiyi Main Hall, attracting the attention of many disciples.
“Heavens, it’s her Highness the Holy Daughter!”
“I feel that the Holy Daughter has become stronger. She’s even stronger than many Supreme Elders!”
“That’s right. Her Highness, the Holy Daughter, entered the Liuhe Realm fifteen years ago. In the entire Taiyi Holy Land, only a few Supreme Elders can surpass her, except for the Holy Lord!”
“The Holy Daughter is the most talented person in the history of the Taiyi Holy Land. She has the legendary Zixia Body. She was born with a path that is unparalleled. I’m afraid her cultivation is no inferior to the Holy Lord’s!”
“With Her Highness’s talent, she has a high chance of becoming the next Holy Lord!
