Boom!
Qin Chen struck first and used the Moving Secret Technique, which was the fastest movement technique in the world. With that, his speed was hastened to the extreme and he arrived in front of the grand elder like lightning, using an emperor-grade supernormal knowledge to kill the grand elder.
He had a feeling that if he didn’t stop the grand elder, the latter would awaken all the Jiutian realm Sages that had been sealed in the pegasus race.
Although Qin Chen was quite curious himself if he had the ability to kill a Sage, with his cautious personality, he didn’t want to face a Jiutian realm Sage so soon unless it was necessary.
What if he wasn’t a match for the other party?
He’d better deal with the other party after he reached the Jiutian realm.
Boom!
The grand elder of the pegasus race was sent flying as he spat out a mouthful of blood. His sturdy half-man and half-horse body was crumbling inch by inch. He couldn’t withstand Qin Chen’s emperor-grade attack and was about to die.
However, he was still smiling and even sneered with a bit of contempt, “Great Venerable of the human race, you won’t make it in time. The ancient Sage of my race is about to appear. You’re dead for sure.”
As his voice fell, the grand elder shattered, his body and soul destroyed.
At the same time, before the pegasus race’s members had time to grieve, a terrifying pillar of light suddenly shot up into the sky from the main hall. It was like a giant pillar that held up the sky, standing between Heaven and Earth.
In the light pillar, the boundless aura that could suppress the heavens was looming and spreading in all directions. All the cultivators present were stunned and looked at the light pillar in awe.
Even Qin Chen, who was at the peak of the Bahuang realm and had the Chaotic Holy Body, the best physique in the world, felt some pressure at this moment.
The pressure came from the pillar of light that reached the sky, from the ancient Sage of the pegasus race!
“So this is the Sagely might of a Jiutian realm Sage?” Qin Chen’s expression was serious. In the past six months that he had been in the Great Qin Dynasty, he had naturally read through the many books contained in the immortal divine dynasty, which introduced the many different realms.
Among them was an introduction to the Jiutian realm, which was more detailed than what was recorded in Taiyi Holy Land.
After all, the Great Qin Dynasty was founded by Qin Shihuang, who was suspected to be a Heavenly Emperor. Since ancient times, it had produced many Jiutian Sages, and even the Sages of the way of Confucius had been killed.
The Taiyi Holy Land was far inferior.
Therefore, Qin Chen had a very clear understanding of the Jiutian realm.
The Jiutian realm was known as the Sage realm!
It was also a huge threshold. Once one stepped into the Jiutian realm, it represented true transcendence.
That’s right. Even the Bahuang realm was only a mortal realm in front of the Jiutian realm.
Those in the Qiyao and Bahuang realms seemed to be crowned as Kings and Venerables, but this was only possible during the Dharma-ending Age now. When the world recovered, cultivators in those realms would be far from being crowned as Kings and Venerables in the cultivation world.
Even great Venerables were still in the Bahuang realm. In front of a Jiutian realm Sage, they were only mortals. The only difference was that the Venerables were the most powerful mortals.
The word “tian” (sky) in “Jiutian” represented everything. In comparison to this realm, the difference between it and the Bahuang realm was like the difference between Heaven and Earth.
After the primordial age, the world changed. Although there were few Bahuang realm Venerables, they would be born in every era.
Even in the most difficult era, the Dharma-ending Age, this held true.
However, Jiutian realm Sages were almost extinct after the primordial age. They couldn’t even be born in some eras, which made their rarity and strength evident.
Now, a peerless Sage in the Jiutian realm was about to be born in the pegasus race. Just the Sagely might he emitted was enough to make an unparalleled great Venerable like Qin Chen feel traces of pressure.
“A Jiutian realm Sage, huh?” However, Qin Chen was not afraid. On the contrary, his fighting spirit rose.
He was a great Venerable with the Chaotic Holy Body, which was the number one body in the world that gave him the heaven-defying combat power to fight across realms. He had also mastered many kinds of emperor-level supernormal knowledge, even heavenly emperor-level supernormal knowledge. He was not afraid of facing a Jiutian realm Sage. On the contrary, he had a strong desire to fight, hoping to battle with a Jiutian realm Sage.
Although he had always been steady, he still hoped to fight these ancient Sages after reaching the Jiutian realm.
However, when such a Sage really came before he even reached the Jiutian realm, he was still not afraid.
Qin Chen wanted to know if he could kill a Sage.
A half-man, half-horse figure silently appeared in the huge pillar of light. Shortly after, the pillar of light slowly dissipated and returned to the figure.
In the next moment, a boundless pressure slowly spread out across the world.
Everyone’s attention was on this figure!
As of this moment, the centaur-like figure seemed to have become a God of Heaven and Earth. His words were like law, and everything had to submit to him.
A Sage! Jiutian realm!
Everyone looked at the ancient Sage of the pegasus race. All the members of the pegasus race had heated gazes as they paid their respects to the ancient Sage as if the latter were a God.
“Forefather!”
The members of the pegasus race were all piously worshiping him, and so was the palace master.
However, Lord Dragon and the rest had ugly expressions.
That was because the ancient Sage of the pegasus race had appeared. He was a peerless Sage of the Jiutian realm, above the Bahuang realm.
Even great Venerables were no match for ancient Sages.
Just as they were about to ask Qin Chen to leave immediately, he laughed out loud, “You’re a Sage in the Jiutian realm? Good, very good. I would like to know how powerful a Jiutian realm Sage is!”
Boom!
At this moment, Qin Chen didn’t even try to hide his power. A terrifying and unparalleled power exploded from his body, surging violently.
Heaven and Earth shook!
Heaven and Earth had originally been locked down by the ancient Sage’s Sagely might. All cultivators, including those in the Bahuang realm, could only constrict their might around them to resist the suppression of the Sagely might.
However, at this moment, the seal was torn apart by Qin Chen’s power and knocked to the side.
A great Venerable aura that belonged only to Qin Chen filled Heaven and Earth as if it wanted to be on par with the ancient Sage’s Sagely might!
In fact, with Qin Chen as the center, his great Venerable might had indeed forcefully blocked the Sagely might of the pegasus race’s ancient Sage to a distance of a thousand feet away from him.
“This might, how is it possible?!”
The expressions of the experts in the pegasus race changed. They couldn’t believe that the might of this human race’s great Venerable was able to resist the Sagely might. It was almost as if they were equals!
One had to know that that was the Sagely might of a Jiutian ancient Sage!
Lord Dragon and the rest were also shocked. They looked at Qin Chen in the sky with disbelief as if this was the first time they met him.
“So this is Venerable Qin’s strength? That’s right, he has the number one Chaotic Holy Body in the world, the body of the Chaotic Heavenly Emperor. The physique has been unparalleled in both ancient and modern times. Moreover, Lord Chen is a great Venerable, so he’s probably not inferior to a Jiutian realm Sage,” Lord Dragon immediately understood.
The Chaotic Holy Body was a heaven-defying physique, and it had the shocking ability to fight across realms. It was indeed not impossible for Qin Chen to fight against a Jiutian realm Sage as a great Venerable.
