Chapter 2124 - 2222: Who Are You? (First Update)
"You are indeed not as good as him." Just as Xue Chi laughed until tears fell, suddenly, a faint, emotionless voice, like the sound of ghosts and gods, entered his ears.
It was unexpected.
"Who?" Xue Chi’s face changed drastically, his laughter stopped abruptly, feeling cold all over, unable to move.
Danger!!!
Ultimate danger.
Like a deadly snake targeting him.
Moreover, he couldn’t resist.
Not to mention resisting, at this moment, he couldn’t even determine where the opponent was.
The opponent’s strength was incredibly strong, beyond Xue Chi’s imagination. In an instant, Xue Chi subconsciously estimated and compared, discovering that it seemed like the speaker was even stronger than the Old Ancestors of Cold Abyss Palace.
This was simply unbelievable!
Who exactly was the opponent?
"First, go back to your room and calm down your emotions. I’m waiting for you in your room," said the mysterious voice.
Then.
Xue Chi felt that the opponent seemed to disappear.
"Who is he?" Xue Chi’s face was uncertain, the depths of his eyes filled with intense fear. He hesitated for a moment but ultimately quickly returned to his attic.
Soon.
He returned to the room.
Looking up, he immediately saw a person dressed in black with a wide-brimmed hat, sitting beside the coffee table, drinking tea.
Terrifyingly, Xue Chi couldn’t sense the opponent’s strength.
Moreover, even the hat seemed to be beyond his imagination, a Supreme Treasure. It looked ordinary, yet staring at it intensely caused an eye-pain sharp enough to bring tears.
"Sit." The mysterious figure raised his head, glanced at Xue Chi, taking on a somewhat dominant posture, despite this being Xue Chi’s room.
Without a sound, Xue Chi took a deep breath, walked forward, and sat across from the mysterious figure.
Though filled with endless trepidation and fear inside, intuition told Xue Chi that the opponent likely wouldn’t take his life, for there was no trace of murderous intent from them.
Furthermore, given the opponent’s strength, Xue Chi believed that if they wanted to kill him, they wouldn’t need to invite him back first; just a thought would suffice, leaving no chance for intervention or knowledge.
"May I ask... who you are?" After sitting down, Xue Chi asked, his voice trembling, using the respectful term ’you.’
"Do you know Su Chen?" The mysterious figure didn’t answer Xue Chi’s question but spoke directly.
Xue Chi shook his head.
Of course, he didn’t know.
He was a Martial Cultivator in the Grand Cosmos World, and that Su Chen, he only knew, belonged to the Minor Thousand Worlds.
That was all.
Moreover, he wasn’t especially interested. Did the giant dragon need to understand ants?
"He is less than five hundred years old, but his strength exceeds yours, currently," the mysterious figure continued.
"What?" Xue Chi shuddered, eyes widening, losing his composure.
Was this some kind of joke?
Stronger than him?!!!
He, Xue Chi, ranked seventh in the Four Clouds System Ascension Register!
In the entire Four Clouds Sector, Xue Chi was renowned as a monster.
A super genius attracting countless forces’ attention.
Inferior to a kid from the Minor Thousand Worlds? And the opponent was only five hundred years old?
If it weren’t for the overwhelming threat perceived from the mysterious figure seated before him, he would have cursed, driven the figure away, or even tried to kill them.
Did they take him for a fool?
"Don’t doubt it. I never joke," the mysterious figure seemed to anticipate Xue Chi’s emotional reaction, his voice even more indifferent.
"This..." Xue Chi calmed down a notch. The identity of the mysterious figure was unknown to him, but their unimaginable strength made it unlikely for them to joke.
Could it be...
Could it be that the youth named Su Chen from the Minor Thousand Worlds, the man constantly in Xue Hanyue’s thoughts, was really stronger than him?
"Not long ago, he defeated a Demon of Half-Step Realm Master Boundary," the mysterious figure continued.
Xue Chi’s mouth twitched harshly.
Defeated a Half-Step Realm Master Boundary?
Could his ears be betraying him?
Though Xue Chi was at the Ninth Level of Divine Lord Realm Peak Phase.
The gap to the Half-Step Realm Master was immense, potentially taking thousands of years to bridge.
Summoning his courage, Xue Chi raised his head, staring at the eyes of the mysterious figure: "You... you... you didn’t deceive me?"
"Do I need to deceive you?"
Xue Chi fell silent.
For a long while.
Xue Chi regained much calmness: "Senior, why are you telling me this?"
"Do you want to defeat your rival, in front of the woman you love and are obsessed with?"
"I do!" Xue Chi nodded heavily, how could he not want that? He wished to devour Su Chen’s flesh and blood, wanted him kneeling before him, wanted Xue Hanyue to witness Su Chen being tormented like a dead dog.
"If you want, then do it. This is a drop of Essence Blood from a Prehistoric Emperor Crocodile." The mysterious figure raised his hand, placing a spherical Crystal Vial onto the table.
Inside the Crystal Vial was a drop of brown liquid.
It shimmered with a mysterious, soul-tearing brilliance at a glance.
Xue Chi was utterly stunned.
Pre... Pre... Prehistoric Emperor Crocodile?
How was it possible?
The legendary beast of prehistoric civilization?
Before the Ancient, Primordial Ancient Times, there was the prehistoric civilization.
Prehistoric civilization was almost extinct.
Even in the Grand Cosmos World, few possessed treasures from prehistoric civilization.
Let alone Essence Blood from a Prehistoric Emperor Crocodile. Yes, Essence Blood, not fresh blood.
He remembered, over eight hundred years ago, the Pang Family, one of the strongest forces in the Four Clouds Sector, a Third Grade Force!
How many Third Grade Forces were in the Four Clouds Sector?
They were one of the sector’s rulers!
In one night, they were wiped out.
The entire plane became a dead plane.
Later, it was discovered that the destruction of the Pang Family was by a second-grade force from another cloud sector.
The second-grade force wiped out the Pang Family because Pang Family harbored a treasure.
The ’treasure’ was rumored to be a drop of fresh blood from a prehistoric giant beast.
Yes, a single drop of fresh blood from a prehistoric giant beast was worth a second-grade force sacrificing everything to annihilate a third-grade force.
And yet, this mysterious figure now produced a drop of Essence Blood from a prehistoric giant beast! Essence Blood!!!
Xue Chi stood stunned for more than ten breaths.
Then, suddenly realized.
The first move was to pinch his arm.
He felt like he was dreaming.
"This drop of Essence Blood from a Prehistoric Emperor Crocodile is enough to transform you, allowing your strength to soar more than tenfold. If lucky, you might even gain one of the innate divine abilities of the Prehistoric Giant Crocodile," the mysterious figure’s voice grew more ethereal.
"I... I... what do I need to sacrifice?" Xue Chi’s face flushed scarlet, agitated nearly to the point of losing control.
