“So… I’ve always been wrong! And that’s why I’ve been trapped here all along!” Su Chen muttered softly. As he spoke, his tone grew increasingly resolute.
In the past, though he was really reluctant to admit it, the truth was that he had always treated Qin Hao and the others merely as tools. When they finally grew up completely, he would reap the benefits. That was all.
It could be said that Qin Hao could be just about anyone. As long as they could grow up fully and bring benefits to him, their identity did not matter!
But he had forgotten Qin Hao and the others were living people! They also had their own thoughts, their own paths, their own things to do! Yet he had treated them as mere tools.
Leaving aside Cao Yun, in the case of Wang Kun recently, Su Chen had simply wanted to help him a bit, then profit after he grew up. Perhaps there would be no impact in the short term, but if this continued, would there not eventually be problems?
“If I were to kill all of them, I’m afraid i wouldn’t be able to pass the Heart Refining Tribulation in this lifetime!” Su Chen said with a wry smile.
It was precisely because he had only ever treated them as tools. They held no deep feelings for him. So when he sensed the illusion, he attacked them without hesitation.
If it was someone close to him, even knowing it was an illusion, he would probably have thought carefully before deciding what to do next. Most people would not attack even if it was an illusion when they realized the other party could not threaten them. This was the difference between having feelings and not.
In addition, Su Chen was a transmigrator. Therefore, his feelings for them were very superficial. All along, he had only wanted them to boost his reputation and increase his strength.
Thinking of this, Su Chen could not help but feel a lingering fear in his heart. It was so close… he was about to fall short of success! This was also thanks to the heavenly tribulation allowing him to discover some flaws he had not noticed in the past.
The moment Su Chen understood, the entire space began to twist and then shatter.
In the outside world, Su Chen regained his senses, his eyes brimming with vitality. Rays of divine light shot out from the depths of his eyes, completely obliterating the tribulation clouds in the sky.
Although thousands of years had passed in the illusion, it only lasted an instant in the outside world.
Beside him, the Azure Dragon Sword rumbled and utterly destroyed the heavenly tribulation. All kinds of abstruse Dao patterns appeared in the sky, extremely mystical.
At the same time, the Azure Dragon Sword emanated the aura of a sacred weapon. The Azure Dragon Sword, originally a supreme-grade Dao Weapon, had completely transformed into a sacred weapon today!
“Saint Realm!” Su Chen murmured.
At this moment, he had successfully broken through to the Saint Realm. His strength had also multiplied, and his every action emanated an aura that could rend the heavens. The mountains in the distance were like toys in his eyes.
At this moment, he had complete confidence that with a single punch, these mountains would be pulverized.
At the Saint Realm, moving mountains and filling the sea, plucking stars, and seizing moons had already become basic skills. Compared to the Quasi-Saint Realm, reaching the Saint Realm was not just a change in strength, but also an increase in life level.
If a Saint Realm powerhouse wanted to kill a Nirvana Realm expert, he only needed a gaze. But a Quasi-Saint Realm expert facing a Nirvana Realm cultivator would have more trouble. This was the fundamental difference between the two.
“Crash!”
Spiritual light covering a radius of thousands of miles descended from the sky and enveloped Su Chen, quickly healing the hidden injuries left from his tribulation.
This scene caused many people who had just come to their senses to almost lose their composure.
“Spiritual light spanning a thousand miles! This is simply something never seen before!” a Saint Realm powerhouse spoke with an extremely solemn expression.
Spiritual light descending after transcending tribulation had already become a widely acknowledged fact. As long as one was not abandoned by the heavens, they would generally receive this treatment.
Of course, except for Huo Xi who was forsaken by the heavens. Therefore, the spiritual light she received was pitifully little.
As for Su Chen’s spiritual light descending from the sky today, it was as if he was the darling of heaven and earth. It directly covered an area of thousands of miles. His innate talent was already incredibly exceptional. Coupled with the transformation brought about by this celestial spiritual light, no one dared to imagine how terrifying he would become.
“I heard that when Su Chen…Senior Su Chen was undergoing the Nirvana Tribulation, there were ten heavenly tribulations! I originally dismissed this news, but now it seems the rumors may not be false!” the Wang family Patriarch spoke stiffly.
Ten Nirvana Tribulations and ten Saint Tribulations were two different concepts. But now both appeared together in one person. No matter how incredulous, they could only believe it.
“After passing nine Saint Tribulations, it’s certain that he’ll become a great emperor in the future! Even a true immortal! Now he managed to transcend ten Saint Tribulations, how terrifying will his future be?” an elder from a holy land spoke in shock.
The thousand miles of spiritual light was extremely daunting. However, it only lasted a short moment.
The main function of the heavenly spiritual light was to heal the injuries from the tribulation. After that, it was to consolidate the foundation and stabilize the realm. The final step was to improve one’s aptitude.
After absorbing ail the spiritual light, Su Chen’s figure flashed and he appeared before everyone.
Clad in purple robes, glowing with splendor and floating on air, he stood in the void like an exiled immortal, in perfect harmony with the heavens and the earth.
He waved his hand. Not far away, the Azure Dragon Sword buzzed and turned back, falling into Su Chen’s hand before disappearing.
“Master!”
At this moment, Long Wu immediately appeared, her face full of delight. Her beautiful eyes sized up Su Chen, filled with shock.
Behind Su Chen, the Wang family members also flew over at high speed.
“Fellow Daoist Su Chen succeeds in stepping into the Saint Realm! From now on, the East Barrens will gain another saint. In time, there may even appear a Great Emperor Realm powerhouse!” a Saint Realm powerhouse from the Wang family said with a smile.
“Congratulations on becoming a saint, Senior Su Chen!”
People from the other factions also came forward and cupped their fists in congratulations. These people looked at Su Chen with envy and admiration. Before coming here, they had thought many people would become saints. But they never imagined Su Chen to be the first to reach the Saint Realm!
In this way, some peak-stage Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouses who were still consolidating their foundations could no longer remain complacent.
It could be anticipated that in the upcoming period, the entire East Barrens would completely boil over with excitement.
Firstly, because the unprecedented ten Saint Tribulations had appeared for the very first time in the East Barrens. Secondly, because Su Chen who was thousands of years younger than them had already become a saint. While those who had lived for ages had yet to reach the Saint Realm. This made them lose face somewhat.
The frenzy of advancing to the Saint Realm, from this moment onwards, was completely unleashed by Su Chen!
