Some held opposing views, though their words still carried praise for Xue Hong.
"Junior Brother, that was an Imperial Seed incarnation, after all. Naturally, its value was exceedingly high..."
The one being refuted stressed his tone, but this time, he was interrupted.
"Enough!"
Xue Hong raised a hand, stopping the argument. "You two junior brothers need not argue any further."
"If Four Absolutes are not enough, then let all Five Absolutes emerge. One sword of the Five Absolutes shall sever his Longevity Path... what do you think?"
Xue Hong's words left the Five Elements Palace disciples stunned for a moment, before they sucked in cold breaths.
"N-No... Senior Brother, y-you're not joking, are you? F-Five Absolutes?"
"Senior Brother... have you already achieved the Supreme Earth Immortal Seed? Do you possess potential equal to Patriarch Ji Chengtao's?"
"To evolve Five Absolutes at the Mid Nirvana Stage—throughout the history of our Five Elements Palace, aside from Imperial Seed-level existences, only Patriarch Ji Chengtao ever accomplished it."
At that moment, words of amazement and shock echoed around Xue Hong's ears. He grew ever more satisfied, standing with his hands behind his back and assuming the bearing of an exalted expert.
Of course, he eventually shook his head slightly. "Junior Brothers, Five Absolutes are not so easily mastered. I may need to reach the Life Stage before I can fully grasp them."
Everyone froze, confusion appearing in their eyes.
"But Senior Brother, didn't you say..."
All eyes fell upon Xue Hong.
Xue Hong shook his head, then lifted his gaze to the sky.
At this moment, the Five Elements Light in the heavens was hazy. One could faintly see crisscrossing divine chains of the five elements intertwining across the firmament, as if binding the entire world.
Slap!
