Although Venerable Sword Saint still showed no sign of making a move against Ling Tian and the others, Chi Xue remained certain that he would—and before long. Chi Xue believed that the many Quasi-Saints had only just completed ten Heavenly Slave trials. They would need time to recover and improve their condition, after all. The Lord of the Universe would never allow Venerable Sword Saint to attack Ling Tian and the others while they were in poor shape.
"Exactly." Po Di picked up the thread. "The Heavenly Slave trials are a test set by the Lord of the Universe for us and Ling Tian's group. Based on past experience, we need time to adjust after each trial—somewhere between twenty or thirty thousand years and several tens of thousands. But there's no need to rush. Venerable Sword Saint will sooner or later attack Ling Tian and the others, and when he does, he's bound to inflict heavy casualties on them."
"Exactly. Venerable Sword Saint will definitely inflict heavy casualties on Ling Tian and the others, even if they've made great strides over all this time and become much stronger than us." Shi Lin glanced around as he spoke. "The aura Venerable Sword Saint released back then was far stronger than even the strongest among us—and stronger than Ling Tian, too. Most likely, Venerable Sword Saint is at the peak of the ninth level of the Quasi-Saint stage, while Ling Tian and the others are at most at the peak of the seventh. They're still far behind him. Even with the Myriad Sword Demon Extermination Grand Formation, they won't be his match."
"What's more, Venerable Sword Saint's strength must have increased tremendously over all this time, so he's bound to inflict even heavier casualties on Ling Tian and the others." Shi Lin
