Chapter 715
Just how profound and wondrous was the Sage Realm? A few words could hardly explain its mysteries and marvels, much less describe exactly what set it apart.
It was simply the supreme goal pursued by countless intelligent beings, Qi Refiners, and even ferocious beasts since the Primordial World first opened.
Becoming a Sage had been the goal countless Innate Realm mighty figures had yearned for through innumerable epochs. Yet even now, among the beings as numerous as the sands of the Ganges who had emerged since the Primordial World began, many stunning, peerless geniuses of extraordinary talent had appeared. Sadly, those who became Sages remained exceedingly rare.
Other than Dao Ancestor Hongjun, there were only the Six Sages of the Heavenly Dao and Goddess Pingxin, who had attained the Dao by another path. The Sages who emerged afterward had achieved it through Master Tongtian's methods.
As for other beings of unparalleled talent, there had once been the number one beneath the Sages, Demon Emperor Di Jun, who wielded the Innate Supreme Treasure, the Eastern Emperor Bell; there had also been Di Jun, lord of the Demon Heavenly Court and Di Jun's elder brother; then the Twelve Ancestral Witches, the Eastern Duke, the Queen Mother of the West...
Countless heavenly geniuses and mighty figures had remained trapped beneath the Sage Realm for their entire lives. No matter how brilliant they were, they could never advance even a single step further.
As for how powerful a Sage truly was, obliterating mountains and seas with a thought or discerning the workings of heaven with a thought were merely the most basic displays.
One only needed to know that no being short of the Sage Realm, no matter how powerful or how close to becoming a Sage, could contend against one.
