Chapter 300 - 300: A Great Battle Erupts
In an instant, a terrifying pressure erupted from within the Demon Slaying Altar, and a great battle commenced.
An unrivaled pressure surged like a tsunami, divine light flooding the world as far as the eye could see. Countless mountains crumbled to dust in that moment, the flowers, trees, and plants atop them ceasing to exist.
Thousands of miles away, a Quasi-Saint Realm cultivator sat cross-legged. His entire body overflowed with divine light. At that moment, his gaze shifted as he looked towards where the battle had erupted, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes’ depths.
“Su Chen has arrived finally!” He suddenly stood, muttering under his breath.
Within the Demon Slaying Altar, everyone’s divine sense was suppressed, barely able to utilize it at all. Not just for Quasi-Saint Realm experts, even if a genuine Saint Realm or Great Saint Realm, or even a Saint King Realm powerhouse came, it would be the same.
“However, logically, given his speed it should’ve taken at least several months to reach the Demon Slaying Altar. How could he arrive so quickly?”
The Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouse suddenly considered something strange. He was a little surprised. Long ago they had come via teleportation formation to the Demon Slaying Altar’s vicinity. Yet Su Chen had only spent a few days to reach this place. No matter how he looked at it, it was somewhat odd!
Su Chen’s swift arrival had completely disrupted their plans. Many of their arrangements here had yet to be fully completed, like the killing formations and trap formations…
Of course, this didn’t actually matter at all. After all, two Saint Realm powerhouses were guarding this place. No matter how strong Su Chen was, he had no way to escape.
“It seems Su Chen has encountered dark creatures within the Demon Slaying Altar. Even someone as powerful as Su Chen will find it hard to escape the dark creatures’ entanglement for some time.”
He looked towards the battle’s location, sneering coldly. “It appears even the heavens stand on our side! We hold the advantage here. Su Chen, this time you will undoubtedly die!”
Having finished speaking, he sped off into the distance.
Half an hour later, within the pitch-black valley at the Demon Slaying Altar’s core.
The Spirit Race Patriarch abruptly stood, many experts gathered by his side. These were powerhouses from the Dashang Empire, the Infinite Demon Sect, and the Golden Crow Clan. Added together, at least a dozen Quasi-Saint Realm experts.
“Su Chen has truly come?” The Spirit Race Patriarch looked at the Quasi-Saint Realm expert before him excitedly, asking for confirmation.
Everyone present lit up, staring intently at the Quasi-Saint Realm expert.
They already knew Su Chen would arrive, yet none had expected him so swiftly. Mere days had passed, and he was already within the Demon Slaying Altar.
Not only that, right now he was battling dark creatures.
“Are you certain it’s Su Chen?” Tang Shui of the Infinite Demon Sect asked deeply.
No matter how one looked at it, Su Chen shouldn’t be so fast. Unless he could teleport here directly. But the crux was Su Chen knew nothing of formations!
At least, that was their intelligence. Many believed Su Chen’s cultivation speed was so swift precisely because he devoted all his effort towards it, having no time to study other methods.
Hearing this, the reporting Quasi-Saint expert’s expression stiffened. “Well… I didn’t see clearly either, only sensed the battle’s aftermath.”
“Hmm?” Hearing this, the crowd’s excitement was instantly doused. So this expert didn’t actually see anything clearly? Just sensing the aftermath, he concluded the person was Su Chen?
When the quasi-emperor’s edict had descended at the Purple Clouds Holy Land, nearly all the East Barrens’ forces became aware of the dark creatures’ existence. Outwardly, the Demon Slaying Altar was left to the Great Mystery Sacred Sect. However, none could guarantee other factions wouldn’t be tempted.
After all, before the dark creatures’ invasion, their existence was linked to the Black Blood Stones in everyone’s eyes. As long as one could kill a dark creature, endless Black Blood Stones would be obtained.
Perhaps…the one battling dark creatures now wasn’t Su Chen, but other factions’ experts.
“Fellow Daoist, don’t tell me you’re saying that just from some aftermath, you’ve concluded Su Chen is here?” A Golden Crow Clan Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouse spoke deeply, expression very ugly.
“Don’t forget what kind of place this is. The Demon Slaying Altar contains terrifying things! Not only Su Chen, even if we casually walk around, we could die without a whole corpse!”
In the past, far too many dark creatures were buried within the Demon Slaying Altar. Among them were even Great Emperor Realm dark creatures, with rumors that immortal dark creatures lay in the altar’s deepest parts.
Even in death, these dark creatures retained their obsession. None could guarantee their present strength. The outside world only knew that in the past, an ancient saint had witnessed a Quasi-Emperor Realm dark creature’s lingering obsession asleep after entering the altar.
What if…what if they encountered that creature? Not to mention the two Saint Realm powerhouses backing them, even if there was a Saint King Realm expert, it would still be courting death!
“Should we keep waiting?” Just then, Tang Shui spoke up. In his heart, he simply didn’t believe Su Chen could arrive so quickly. Having heard the expert’s words, he was now certain the one battling dark creatures definitely wasn’t Su Chen, but some other faction’s expert.
“Could it really not be Su Chen who came?” The Quasi-Saint Realm expert steadied himself and continued, “Don’t forget the shock Su Chen brought us! He can’t be judged by common sense!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Shui retorted, “Haha…the odds of that are far too low.”
Shaking his head, he went on, “In my view, although Su Chen is powerful, he still can’t traverse the void, and it’s even less likely that he can set up teleportation formations. Reaching the Demon Slaying Altar will take at least several months. Right now, we need to swiftly prepare our formations…” However, before Tang Shui could finish, a dragon’s voice sounded from the valley’s depths. “Whether it is Su Chen or not, one look will tell!”
As the voice fell, an old man emerged from the darkness, wearing a white jade crown, gray hair loose, his terrifying pressure making the entire valley tremble. The many Quasi-Saint Realm experts present sensed this pressure, their expressions shifting as their bodies shook, wanting to kneel in greeting..
