Chapter 260: Killing Su Chen?

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The Prodigy Gathering was a convention held long ago by a quasi-emperor and two demonic quasi-emperors. Its main purpose was to deal with the dark creatures.

In the past decade or so, spatial rifts would occasionally appear in various corners of the East Barrens, with traces of dark creatures spotted from time to time. The strongest were at the Saint Realm, while the weakest were at the Qi Sea Realm and G.o.d Altar Realm. For the current world, these dark creatures did not amount to much. However, they still needed to be guarded against.

After all, the records of the lifeforms in this world battling the dark creatures were still vivid even after thousands of years. No one could be certain the dark creatures would not make a comeback someday. In any case, being prepared in advance was prudent.

Thus, the Prodigy Gathering was established. During this convention, countless sects, empires, and holy lands across the East Barrens would send their prodigies. These prodigies would form the main force against the dark creatures in the future. Having them hunt some dark creatures in advance was quite necessary.

“But the problem is the Prodigy Gathering will be held at the Purple Clouds Holy Land. We may not be able to interfere there! Let alone eliminate Su Chen and Qin Hao within the Purple Clouds Holy Land,” the Spirit Race Patriarch said helplessly.

The Purple Clouds Holy Land was an ancient faction that could be traced back hundreds of thousands of years. Its past glory was ill.u.s.trious. Unfortunately, it eventually declined in the end. Killing someone within the Purple Clouds Holy Land would be very difficult. Even if the Spirit Race and Qin family joined forces to pressure them, it was uncertain whether the other party would yield.

Additionally, he had just probed with his divine sense the discussions among the Spirit Race members and knew what had happened in the G.o.d Demon Sect’s ruins. From it, he had learned that a Quasi-Saint Realm expert of the Purple Clouds Holy Land had a close relationship with Su Chen. With that elder present, it was almost certain the Purple Clouds Holy Land would side with Su Chen.

“Hehe…” The head of the Qin family chuckled meaningfully. “Accidents are bound to happen during the invasion of dark creatures, and it’s only natural that some will fall into the hands of these dark creatures. This kind of thing often occurs during past Prodigy Gatherings, doesn’t it?”

Hearing this, the Spirit Race Patriarch’s eyes lit up. But he soon spoke solemnly, “While your suggestion is good, killing Qin Hao will be easy but dealing with Su Chen is very difficult. After all, he’s already at the Quasi-Saint Realm.”

Through the chatter of Spirit Race members, he had learned a little about Su Chen’s battle record. Even five joint Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouses were no match for Su Chen. The Spirit Race Patriarch knew that even if he personally made a move, he might not achieve such stunning feats as Su Chen. Although unwilling to admit it, Su Chen was now on par with them.

“We don’t need to deal with Su Chen, only kill Qin Hao,” the head of the Qin family stated. “As the Holy Son, Su Chen naturally has duties of his own. He cannot remain by Qin Hao’s side at all times. As for Qin Hao’s death, Su Chen will let it go if he knows what’s good for him. But if not, we don’t mind sending him along too!” A glint of killing intent flashed through the eyes of the head of the Qin family. He spoke with great confidence.

The forces behind Su Chen were complex, and even though he did not wish to provoke them, not provoking them did not mean that he feared Su Chen himself.

“I have another question,” the Spirit Race Patriarch said after thinking for a moment. “What if Qin Hao doesn’t attend the Prodigy Gathering?”

“He may not go, but Su Chen will!” the head of the Qin family stated firmly. In the past, the Great Mystery Sect indeed had no qualifications to partic.i.p.ate in such conventions. But now, with the Great Mystery Sacred Sect’s promotion to the saint level, they had the right to attend. As the Holy Son, Su Chen would naturally partic.i.p.ate.

Moreover, among the younger generation, his strength was unequaled. If he didn’t show up, it would be a major blow to the Great Mystery Sacred Sect’s reputation.

“It seems 1 was remiss in considering this point,” the Spirit Race Patriarch conceded with a slight nod. They were only concerned about Su Chen. As long as he was absent, the Great Mystery Sacred Sect would surely not protect Qin Hao until death. After all, Qin Hao had no ties with them. Killing him then would not be difficult.

“I will personally lead my subordinates to the Prodigy Gathering. I wish to see for myself just how formidable this rumored Great Mystery Holy Son is,” the Spirit Race Patriarch coldly declared. For now, Qin Hao was their foremost target, a huge threat to both the Qin family and the Spirit Race. But he also had no intention of letting Su Chen off.

After all, Ling Yu and his group’s downfall was related to Su Chen. If not for that formation he set up, Ling Yu would have killed Qin Hao long ago. Why would they go through so much trouble?

“If there’s a chance, we can kill him,” the head of the Qin family casually remarked.

“Naturally,” acknowledged the Spirit Race Patriarch.

With that, stillness filled the great hall once more. Only the Spirit Race Patriarch lifted his head to gaze at the outside void, a glint of killing intent flashing in the depths of his eyes.

Three days later.

On Holy Son Peak of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect. Su Chen alighted from the golden chariot onto the mountain peak and disembarked casually. After departing the G.o.d Demon Sect’s ruins, nothing else had happened. Even the tokens at the sect’s entrance had successfully fallen into Su Chen’s hands.

He had taken away most of the opportunities within those ruins, leaving behind merely an empty sh.e.l.l. No individual or faction would be so blind as to oppose Su Chen for those ruins. Not long ago, Su Chen had already handed over the four tokens to the sect.

Upon returning to the main hall, Su Chen sat down cross-legged and took out all the storage rings obtained, pouring the spirit stones onto the floor.

Boom!

Holy Son Peak quaked vigorously. The tightly packed spirit stones completely filled the hall. The originally highly concentrated spiritual energy of the mountain peak once again elevated in quality.

Within the main hall, a vast white ocean surged, seemingly about to burst open the palace doors and spill outward. In but a moment, a silver river hung down from Holy Son Peak. If observed closely, one would see this ocean was none other than spirit stones. The majority were of high grade, with even some supreme-grade pieces.

Such a ma.s.sive quant.i.ty would shock anyone with just a glance. Roughly estimated, there were at least tens of millions of spirit stones, if not more. Even the Great Mystery Sacred Sect could not gather so many in a short period. After all, their spirit stones were needed to support the entire sect. It was impossible for them to hand over so many to Su Chen.

At the same time, within the main hall atop Floly Son Peak, magnificent divine light filled the s.p.a.ce, br.i.m.m.i.n.g with endless radiance. All kinds of brilliance flashed as countless weapons manifested. Their sharp edges seemed able to pierce the very heavens.

Su Chen sat calmly amidst the main hall, appearing like an exiled immortal. His strength continuously climbed without pause.

Boom!

Not long after, an exceedingly formidable might erupted forth like a tsunami. The defensive formation protecting Holy Son Peak was also activated at this time..
