Li Chen, despite being a mere Domain Realm cultivator, provoked the three Ancient Ancestors. When they mocked his claims of strength, Li Chen's sharp wit and ability to attract more Palm Realm powerhouses turned the tables. He subtly manipulated the situation, planting seeds of suspicion about Ziyun's intentions and causing the newly arrived powerhouses to focus their attention on Ziyun.

At this moment, the pool of burning blood and spit on the ground finally ceased its flames.

However, as the exotic fragrance wafts away, it is likely that more strong entities are already on their way.

Li Chen’s spit obviously couldn’t possess that kind of power.

Hence, there was naturally something more within that ’spit’.

Such as... Yu Hun Xiang!

Back in Purple Fir Continent, just a bit of burning Yu Hun Xiang attracted so many powerhouses, and today, Li Chen aims to replicate that situation!

"Everyone, I think our targets shouldn’t be focused on me right now?" Ziyun’s expression turned grim as he finally couldn’t help but speak.

"The treasure is on you, if not on you, then who else?" Camel Terrors Ancient Ancestor said with a smile.

Though the cold gleam in his eyes suggested that he obviously wasn’t of good intention.

"He claimed it on me, does Tuo Hai believe that?" Ziyun thought annoyed but maintained an unmoving expression: "This kid’s origins are mysterious, and facing so many Palm Realm powerhouses, he can remain calm, doesn’t that strike anyone as odd?"

"It is somewhat odd..." An Ancient Ancestor glanced at Li Chen, then agreed.

Indeed, for such a minor Domain Realm to show no fear in front of so many Palm Realm powerhouses is quite unusual.

"In my judgment, there are only two possibilities," Ziyun stated calmly, "First, the kid must possess an even stronger Exotic Treasure enabling him to defend against so many Palm Realm powerhouses."

"Second, there is an extremely terrifying entity backing him, possibly... a Dao Saint."

When Ziyun mentioned the first possibility, although the Ancestors remained silent, there was a flash in their eyes.

A treasure that enables a Domain Realm to fend off Palm Realm powerhouses is not simple.

As for the second possibility, it compelled them to consider deeply.

A Dao Saint is not so easily provoked.

Although an Ancient Ancestor and a Dao Saint might seem just a realm apart, their strength is worlds apart.

Even if there were so many Ancestors present, a single Dao Saint could easily annihilate them.

Such is the absolute power gap.

Even one as defiant as Li Chen in the past found it difficult to defy this fact.

Ziyun’s words forced them into seriously considering the matter.

"Everyone, there isn’t much time left to decide. I believe each of you was drawn here by the fragrance too?" Knowing his own precarious situation, Ziyun had to skillfully leverage his rhetoric, "Although the scent might have dissipated now, it has already spread far and I’m sure more strong entities are en route."

"If you don’t make decisions quickly, I fear soon it’ll be too late for anyone to decide anything."

Even Li Chen had to admire this fellow’s rhetoric.

In mere words, he shifted the focus away from himself.

Furthermore, Li Chen noticed that quite a few people were diverting their attention towards him.

Although the situation was becoming disadvantageous for him, Li Chen remained calm.

He understood clearly that though they might be interested in what he possessed, because of his cultivation, they wouldn’t take him overly seriously.

After all, he was just a mere Domain Realm.

They were more cautious of the surrounding same-rank strong entities.

Tribulation was no longer useful; even if Li Chen could undergo another tribulation, it wouldn’t work against Palm Realm powerhouses who have developed their own cosmos.

So, what should he do?

Even the Seven Realms Tome was intrigued about what Li Chen would do next.

Considering Li Chen’s Divine Soul had attack power, such attacks consumed heavily, and likely before dealing with the Ancestors present here, he might be killed by them first.

And unfortunately, Red Moon wasn’t by his side.

If Red Moon were here, he wouldn’t fear these people at all.

But given the current situation, how should he handle it?

Soon enough, the Seven Realms Tome realized how Li Chen intended to handle it.

A figure suddenly appeared behind Li Chen.

This was a Shadow, a Shadow nobody detected. It was evident that this Shadow intended to strike Li Chen.

The plan was to sneakily abduct Li Chen under the very noses of these Ancestors!

Undoubtedly, this was an Ancient Ancestor attempting to seize stealthily.

The surroundings were filling with more people, and if Li Chen wasn’t taken swiftly, who knows how things might unfold.

But right then, Li Chen suddenly opened his mouth.

"Imperial Thought—Mad Thunder Shock!"

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

A soul-shaking disturbance akin to thunder emerged, which if described through the mechanical civilization theory, was purely an assault from the Fifth Dimension that ordinary defenses couldn’t withstand!

A Divine Soul attack from the Fifth Dimension could only be defended by a Divine Soul!

Or perhaps a ’Universe’, the ultimate entity completely independent from dimension theory!

Behind Li Chen, the Shadow let out a piercing scream before shattering apart.

Meanwhile, another Palm Realm powerhouse cried out miserably, staggering backward with a pale face, looking at Li Chen with a gaze that mixed shadows of fear.

The one who launched the sneak attack was none other than Camel Terrors Ancient Ancestor!

"Divine Soul attack?!"

"And with merely one Divine Soul attack, he directly destroyed the Soul Hooking Shadow which I painstakingly refined. This fellow... cannot be a simple Domain Realm!" Instead of anger, Camel Terrors Ancient Ancestor began to feel trepidation.

Soul Hooking Shadow was a powerful treasure he refined with his true name! Even among same-rank powerhouses, it was difficult to destroy easily.

And yet this guy, with just a Domain Realm cultivation, obliterated it with a single Divine Soul attack?

This...

No... Camel Terrors seemed to realize something, his heart jolting again.

How could a mere Domain Realm possess a Divine Soul?!

Divine Soul is something only a Soul Realm expert can cultivate?

This white-haired youth’s cultivation... could it be not just Domain Realm?

Thinking of this, Camel Terrors couldn’t help but gasp.

Could this all be a trap?

By now, others in the surrounding seemed to detect an altercation, although because Camel Terrors acted so covertly and Li Chen reacted swiftly, no one knew who struck.

Nonetheless, due to the sudden shockwave, the atmosphere grew increasingly tense.

And at that very moment, another Palm Realm powerhouse tore through space to arrive.

"Ah, this scent again, I wonder if Hong Chen Predecessor is present? Junior Yu Xiu has come specially to express gratitude for the treasure you granted last time!"
