Chapter 480 - 480: Golden-Winged Roc
If there was such a young prodigy within the human race, then in the next ten thousand, one hundred thousand, or even one million years, the other myriad races would likely never have a chance to rise again.
In less than fifty years, he had attained the status of a saint king.
Given another hundred years, he might even become a great emperor. This was the terrifying nature of Su Chen’s innate talent!
No one could guarantee how many years it would take for him to become a great emperor. After all, his life was simply too shocking. He was a legend – a rare phenomenon across the ages.
Other prodigies from different eras would lose their brilliance in his presence. Su Chen was destined to become a legend in this world, and future generations would only remember his name. The prodigies of his time would be forgotten.
“What he demonstrated should not be burning his own foundation. Perhaps he obtained a staggering opportunity in the Chaotic Sea Star Region. Maybe… Su Chen and Chen Su are the same person! We have all been deceived by the number one prodigy of the East Barrens!” said the Thundercloud Hou Clan expert, looking at Su Chen with a solemn expression.
Su Chen had already appeared, but there was still no sign of Chen Su from the White Jade Divine Elephant Clan. Considering Long Aotian’s words before his death, most present were now certain – the inheritance of the World-Transcending Sword Master was in Su Chen’s hands.
Whether Su Chen and Chen Su were the same person was no longer important. As long as they could completely suppress Su Chen, they would have countless methods to force him to reveal the truth.
Regardless of whether it involved soul searching, torturing, or controlling Su Chen, the myriad races had various means to uncover the truth. Among these races, there were those with extraordinary soul powers that far exceeded others at the same level.
As long as the myriad races could capture Su Chen alive, the inheritance of the World-Transcending Sword Master would belong to them, along with the shocking secrets contained within Su Chen’s body. Su Chen had the potential to influence the future development of the myriad races.
“I wonder if everyone has considered one thing,” someone suddenly spoke with an uneasy expression. “Su Chen is a rare genius of the human race, and if he was a great saint, we have countless methods to capture him alive and obtain his shocking secrets and the World-Transcending Sword Master. But the problem is, he’s not a great saint now; he’s a saint king!”
A person’s name, a tree’s shadow.
Over three years, they had amassed a wealth of information about Su Chen. The myriad races harbored deep apprehension towards the top prodigy of East Barrens.
Even at the Great Saint Realm, he had achieved peerless dominance among his contemporaries. No, to be precise, from the moment he entered the Qi Gathering Realm and the Forbidden Stage, Su Chen had been invincible among his peers, never tasting defeat.
Facing such an unparalleled prodigy within their ranks, could the saint kings of the myriad races, who had rallied together, truly stand a chance?
Su Chen’s achievements at the Great Saint Realm were already splendid, and now he had broken through to the Saint King Realm. Perhaps he had completely stabilized his cultivation in the Chaotic Sea Star Region.
Everyone present, facing Su Chen alone, lacked the certainty of victory. Even those Saint King Realm old monsters who had been invincible at the same level in ancient times found themselves without the assurance of triumph against Su Chen.
Let alone considering Su Chen’s current cultivation, his famed weapon, the Azure Dragon Sword, had reached the strength of a Quasi-Emperor Realm weapon. If Su Chen were to break through to the Great Emperor Realm, the Azure Dragon Sword would instantly become an imperial weapon, a Great Emperor Realm one.
Although outwardly the Azure Dragon Sword was still considered a Quasi-Emperor Realm weapon, in terms of strength, it surpassed many imperial weapons. With the support of this divine weapon and his own cultivation, Su Chen could unreservedly be declared as peerless among his contemporaries, dominating the entire world.
Even the Saint King Realm old monsters in Central Plains, who had spent countless years cultivating, would likely face defeat against Su Chen. The myriad races, if they wished to defeat Su Chen, had only one path – to exchange it for the lives of saint kings. However, anyone who had cultivated to the Saint King Realm and survived until now was unlikely to willingly trade their life for a mere injury to a human prodigy.
No one was willing to meet their demise. If they had to use their lives to secure victory against Su Chen, they would rather let him go. These old monsters, having survived to this day, cherished their lives greatly, to the point where they were willing to abandon their own clans to survive.
“Humph! Have the myriad races fallen to such a state? A bunch of trash, truly disappointing!”
Just at this moment, a frigid voice echoed from the heavens. Following closely, a giant roc appeared, obscuring the sky. The moment it emerged, the entire world seemed to plunge into darkness, with only the golden brilliance flickering.
Covered in a golden glow, as if crafted from pure gold, the entire figure transformed into a golden divine light as it descended from afar.
“This… This is… The Golden-Winged Roc!”
“Hiss! How is this possible? An expert of the Golden-Winged Roc Clan!”
“The expert of the Golden-Winged Roc Clan has appeared; this is a race that rivaled the Golden Crow Clan in ancient times!”
“Speaking of which, the Golden-Winged Roc Clan disappeared completely since the end of the ancient era. 1 always thought they were exterminated, but 1 never expected to witness the true form of an expert from the Golden-Winged Roc Clan today…”
The crowd, upon seeing the appearance of the Golden-Winged Roc, first fell into a daze, then quickly reacted and retreated one after another.
During ancient times, the Golden-Winged Roc Clan was an existence capable of contending with the Golden Crow Clan. They held absolute authority among the demons. Many of the tribes present had been oppressed by the Golden-Winged Roc Clan in ancient times..
