Su Chen nodded calmly and said, "Mm."
Lin Fan was shocked and asked incredulously, "They're all so strong, how could they die?"
Su Chen glanced at him. "There are many powerful people in this world, but you just haven't come into contact with them yet. When you truly step out of this world, you will understand the meaning of my words."
Lin Fan was silent for a moment, then asked curiously, "Master, how strong are you?"
Su Chen smiled faintly, "I don't even know how strong I am, but I can tell you that even if those several illusory figures in the air were still alive, they wouldn't be a match for me."
Lin Fan looked up at the illusory figure in the air, his expression heavy, and finally sighed, "Alas, it seems my journey is still very long."
Su Chen smiled and said, "It's enough that you know."
Meanwhile, in the void, the Youyue hung in the sky, the wind whipping around her, her skin covered in a layer of shimmering light. Her eyes were closed, her expression shifting between pain and relief, as if she were undergoing a reshaping and baptism of her soul.
When Youyue's aura reached its peak, she suddenly opened her eyes, and a powerful force erupted, causing the world to lose its color and all things to tremble!
Su Chen looked at Youyue and smiled, "It's done."
Feeling the boundless power within her, Youyue was slightly excited. She suppressed her aura, her figure vanished from the spot, and reappeared on the ground.
Lin Fan quickly asked, "How is it?"
Forcibly suppressing her excitement, Youyue said, "I've advanced directly from the Immortal Sovereign Third Layer to the Immortal Sovereign Seventh Layer."
"What!"
Lin Fan's eyes widened in disbelief. "You've advanced four ranks in one go?"
Youyue nodded and said, "Yes!"
Lin Fan was completely dumbfounded. "How can everything be so outrageous?"
Su Chen said, "That's enough, kid. You should know that the Desolate Ancient Divine Physique and Bloodline Power within you are comparable to the Primordial Dao Physique."
Lin Fan chuckled, "Is... is that so?"
Youyue then said, "I feel I can still break through."
"Ah?"
Lin Fan exclaimed in shock, "You can still break through?"
Youyue nodded and said, "Yes, it seems there are no bottlenecks, and I can break through at any time, but I'm afraid that breaking through too quickly will lead to an unstable foundation, so I stopped trying."
Lin Fan exclaimed, "Defying the heavens!"
Su Chen nodded and said, "There's a saying that goes, 'Haste makes waste.' You did the right thing. Go back and solidify your foundation first. Once your foundation is completely solid, then you can choose to break through."
Youyue nodded and said, "Okay."
Murong Jingyi blinked and said, "Sister Youyue, from now on I'll refine pills for you, and you'll be responsible for protecting me, okay?"
Youyue looked at her and smiled, "Even if you don't refine pills for me, I will still protect you."
Murong Jingyi smiled, "Hehe, Sister Youyue is so kind."
Youyue smiled and said, "If anyone bullies you in the future, you can come to me anytime."
Murong Jingyi nodded and said, "Mmm!"
Youyue looked at Su Chen, "My internal energy is a bit chaotic, I need to go into seclusion."
Su Chen nodded and said, "Mm."
Murong Jingyi said, "Big brother, I haven't finished my alchemy task for today, so I have to go now."
Su Chen looked at her, "Then you should leave with your sister Youyue."
Murong Jingyi nodded, and then left with Youyue.
Sigh~
Watching the two figures walk away, Lin Fan couldn't help but sigh.
Su Chen smiled and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lin Fan said, "I feel a lot of pressure."
Su Chen said, "High pressure is a good thing."
Lin Fan smiled wryly and said, "What kind of good thing is this?"
Su Chen said, "Only with pressure can you unleash your potential. Think about it, if there were no pressure, would you have improved so quickly?"
Lin Fan was stunned for a moment, then said, "That makes sense. I'll go cultivate then."
Su Chen nodded and said, "Go."
After Lin Fan left for a while, Su Chen seemed to remember something, reached out and took out a jade bottle. The jade bottle was still shaking, as if something inside was struggling.
Su Chen opened the bottle, and a figure flew out from the bottle opening. It was the old man from the Heaven-Forged Holy Land ruins.
The old man was in a sorry state, his white hair disheveled, and his aura extremely weak. The moment he came out, a look of joy appeared on his face, but when he saw Su Chen, the joy immediately turned into fear.
The old man trembled and knelt on the ground, head bowed, not daring to meet Su Chen's gaze, "Senior... Senior."
Su Chen lay back in the rocking chair and said, "Tell me, which faction do you belong to outside?"
The old man, his forehead beaded with cold sweat, stammered, "I... I have no power; I'm just Rogue Cultivator."
"Oh?"
Su Chen stared at the old man.
The old man trembled, feeling as if death itself was watching him. He hurriedly said, "Senior, it's not that I don't want to tell, it's that I can't. There's a restriction placed within me; if I speak, that restriction will kill me!"
Su Chen then pointed a finger, and in an instant, a beam of light flew into the old man's body. With a "crack" sound, it was as if something inside the old man's body shattered.
The old man was stunned and remained speechless for a long time.
Su Chen said calmly, "You can speak now."
The old man snapped out of his daze, a look of disbelief on his face. "How is this possible!"
He couldn't believe that the restriction within his body had been broken; after all, no one had ever broken this restriction before!
Even if that person is incredibly strong, there's no way they could break this!
But Su Chen solved it!
Who exactly is he?
The old man felt an unprecedented sense of terror. He seemed to realize that he had greatly underestimated Su Chen.
Su Chen said impatiently, "Are you going to tell me or not?"
The old man trembled, no longer daring to hesitate, and hurriedly said, "I am from the Imperial Court."
" The Imperial Court?"
Su Chen raised an eyebrow. "Never heard of it."
The old man was taken aback. "You... you don't know about the Imperial Court?"
Su Chen said calmly, "No way?"
The old man's expression changed, and he hurriedly shook his head, saying, "Alright, alright, that's absolutely fine."
Su Chen shook his head and said, "Forget it, if you can survive in that Imperial Court with your strength, it probably isn't a very powerful force."
Pfft!
A flash of sword light appeared suddenly, and before the old man could react, he saw his headless corpse. His pupils widened, his eyes filled with fear of death and resentment.
Su Chen raised his hand and waved it, and the old man's body turned into ashes and disappeared into the world.
After finishing all this, he was just about to rest when he heard footsteps in the distance. Su Chen looked up and saw a woman slowly walking towards him.
The woman was exceptionally beautiful, with skin as white as snow, gleaming with a warm, jade-like luster under the gentle caress of the sunlight. A faint smile played at the corners of her lips, like a flower blooming in spring, exuding a captivating fragrance.
Su Chen was taken aback. "Why are you here?"
Ye Ningshuang snorted coldly, "What? You don't want me to come?"
Su Chen smiled and said, "I'm just a little surprised."
Ye Ningshuang said, "I've been here for several days, but I haven't seen you at all."
Thank you for the gift and your support!
Full of motivation!
I'll update at noon from now on, and I'll keep my word!
