Song Yao was defeated by the seemingly Domain Realm cultivator, Li Chen. The elders of the major forces were bewildered by Li Chen's power, which surpassed an entire major realm. The Heavenly Profound Sect elder ended the conference, urging the geniuses to cultivate harder and look beyond their continent. Many geniuses left with complex emotions, realizing Li Chen's brilliance might make him a target. The elders approached Li Chen, their polite demeanor hinting at hidden intentions as they discussed his potential threat.

Li Chen is very strong.

There is no doubt about this.

However, even though they knew, they hadn’t heard of anyone in the Nine Heavens Continent, or even the Jiankong Realm, that could cross a major realm to slay Soul Realm experts.

Of course, this slaying was based on one’s own strength, not some forbidden treasure bestowed by a powerhouse.

After all, the gap of a major realm is not so easily bridged.

Therefore, the fact that Li Chen could defeat so many experts, even sending Soul Realm experts flying, the elders speculated that Li Chen must possess a very powerful secret treasure.

And it was precisely because of this secret treasure that such a guy, who was merely at the First Layer of the Talent Domain Realm, could erupt with terrifying strength, even sending Soul Realm experts flying.

Their idea was simple. If they truly wanted to make a move against Li Chen, they would have to suppress him entirely in the shortest possible time, preventing him from deploying this secret treasure. In that case, a mere Domain Realm would be at their mercy, wouldn’t it?

Taoist friend?

Let this kid float for a while; it’s only to stabilize him!

"Secular Taoist Friend, the matter is settled here. What do you plan to do next?" An elder looked at Li Chen and asked, "Do you intend to join one of our factions, or do you have other plans?"

With these words, the eyes of the surrounding elders couldn’t help but flicker.

Indeed, the treasures on Li Chen’s body were indeed tempting.

But this guy was clearly not simple either.

If they could bring him into their sect or family, not to mention anything else, they, as the referrer, would surely be paid attention to and rewarded, right?

Moreover, if he were outside, targeting and making a move on him wouldn’t be easy. But once he joined their forces, as elders, secretly handling a disciple, getting some good things, wouldn’t be difficult, would it?

Yet, under the disappointed looks of the crowd, Li Chen shook his head.

"Apologies, I appreciate your enthusiasm. However, for now, I wish to travel across the Nine Heavens Continent, broadening my experiences. Rest assured, if one day I wish to join a sect, I will prioritize your sects."

"That is truly such a pity." The crowd shook their heads and sighed, yet the murder intent in their hearts suddenly intensified.

If he cannot become one of their own, then he must be their enemy.

Watching Li Chen’s departing figure, a group of elders exchanged a few glances, their eyes holding a strange look.

...

"Red Moon won’t be in danger this time, will it?" Li Chen sat on a gilded soft seat, suspended in the air, appearing a bit worried.

This gilded soft seat was evidently a treasure he gained from a previous contest; however, these items now belonged to him.

Space rings are no problem for Li Chen; although Li Chen hasn’t specifically studied Artifact Refining, with the Seven Realms Tome, refining such low-level items as space rings can be done effortlessly.

Because their attainments in space, those so-called Artifact Refining masters, are far inferior to him.

All the treasures won from previous contests were casually thrown into the newly refined ring by Li Chen.

"It won’t." To Li Chen’s question, the Seven Realms Tome appeared quite calm.

Perhaps, due to certain reasons, he knew better than Li Chen just how strong the current Red Moon was.

The power hidden within Red Moon’s body was extremely terrifying, but Red Moon himself couldn’t utilize it well, and even Li Chen couldn’t fully evoke it.

After all, it was the body of a Peak Dao Saint!

And Blood Saint, back then, was famous for his formidable physique.

Even those same-level Era-Ancient civilization experts, with more combat experience, were forcefully slain by Blood Saint with his nearly undying and unyielding body!

Even if his spirit soul nature was extinguished, his body remained indestructible!

From this, one can see just how terrifying Blood Saint’s body was.

Blood Saint’s lifelong dream was to refine a weapon surpassing Supreme Treasures.

For even Supreme Treasures may not be as formidable as his body, thus Supreme Treasures were useless to him.

His body was the best weapon.

Lately, before dying, Blood Saint attempted his most insane trial.

He forcibly refined his physical body into a blade!

This blade experienced the vicissitudes and baptism of endless eras, changing names many times, yet never awakening.

When this blade finally awakened, it bore a new name.

Red Moon.

"Red Moon’s future is extraordinary." The voice of the Seven Realms Tome carried an indescribable complexity.

It seemed expectant, yet like a sigh, or perhaps even carried a trace of envy?

"So when should I go find him?" Li Chen asked.

Red Moon conducted a fusion retreat; Li Chen instructed Red Moon to find a place and hide away; even Li Chen didn’t know where Red Moon was hiding now.

"Red Moon is your original weapon. Once his fusion succeeds and he comes out, wouldn’t you perceive it?" The Seven Realms Tome’s tone sounded as though addressing an idiot.

"Alright, alright..." Li Chen chuckled awkwardly.

At this moment, Li Chen had already flown thousands of miles away.

Yet at this moment, a group blocked Li Chen’s path.

Added up, there were eight people. Each person possessed a robust aura, at least with the cultivation of Soul Realm.

Similarly, Li Chen had never seen any of these faces, and even the aura seemed peculiar.

Clearly, they had concealed their aura and appearance to intercept Li Chen.

"Kid, hand over your ring and all treasures on you, to die a little easier, or else..." One of the people spoke fiercely.

Li Chen glanced at this group, continued asking the Seven Realms Tome, "If I want to restore my cultivation, how long will it take?"

"With the help of Yu Hun Xiang, being familiar with the path, within fifty years at best you’ll return to your former state." The Seven Realms Tome replied.

"Fifty years?" Li Chen frowned.

"Fifty years is too long? This place can’t compare with the Starry Cosmos, and even in the Starry Cosmos, this would be a terrifying speed! Others calculate in ten-thousand-year units, what are you planning?" The Seven Realms Tome continued.

"Fine, fifty years is fifty years. But, if there are other opportunities, it could be faster, right?"

"Other opportunities? Do you think you’re the True Dragon Emperor?"

"Of course not, I am the Lonesome Star of Heavenly Slaughter."

...

The Soul Realm expert who initially spoke saw Li Chen merely glanced at him, then immediately became "distracted," instantly becoming furious.

A mere Domain Realm, I’m a dignified Seventh Rank Peak Soul Realm expert, yet he dares be distracted facing me?

Courting death!!

The furious Soul Realm expert ignored the others, charged at Li Chen first, with an explosive momentum, instantly unfolding his Domain Realm.
