As Ling Tian had guessed, Chi Xue was clever. From the flaw Ling Tian had deliberately revealed, he had deduced many things, including Ling Tian's plan to use him to eliminate enemies. The Jade Devouring Sky Python couldn't stop cursing him for his cunning.
"Ling Tian couldn't really do anything else. After all, he wouldn't abandon that Jade Devouring Sky Python, and he still had to deal with the trap we'd laid. That meant they would have to face dozens, even hundreds, of Quasi-Saint experts—or more. In that situation, they had to eliminate some enemies in advance. Only then would they face less pressure when they acted later." Chi Xue paused, then smiled. "But there's one thing Ling Tian forgot—or rather, he remembers it but can't do anything about it. The number of Quasi-Saint experts in the God Realm will keep growing with time."
Chi Xue was right. The God Realm had countless cultivators, including tens of millions of Great Perfection Saint Gods. Even if it took ten thousand years to advance from Great Perfection Saint God to Quasi-Saint, one in ten thousand—or even one in a hundred thousand or a million—would still amount to a great many breakthroughs, especially since everyone had spent tens of thousands of years preparing.
That was right. Ever since they had realized that a great upheaval would come, the major superpower factions had been cultivating experts, and the number of Quasi-Saint experts in their sects had been steadily increasing.
They could get a sense of this from the experts Chi Xue and the others had secretly trained. Over the years, three or four of the Great Perfection Saint Gods they had recruited had already advanced to Quasi-Saint. And that was only their own secret training; the Nine Great Superpower Factions had even greater resources.
