Supreme Warrior in the City

Su Yang nodded slowly, and once again, increased the force he was channeling in. Just as Long Qiu had said, the range of his perception rapidly expanded, now covering the entire Liu Yao City.

”Indeed, it is so!” Su Yang was amazed, holding the round disc in his hand and reluctant to let go. With this thing, going anywhere would be much easier in the future.

”Boss, can you use this to send me out later?” Long Qiu said, full of envy: ”It took me five years to fly to you from the outside, the distance is too great!”

”I’ll give it a try later!” Su Yang said with a smile, looking at Long Qiu for a while, suddenly asked, ”You kid, you seem to know a lot about the Saint Venerable? Are you hiding something from me?”

”I... what have I hidden from you?” Long Qiu asked in surprise.

”Why do you know so much about the Saint Venerable?” Su Yang frowned.

”Because our ancestors once were Saint Venerables!” Long Qiu exclaimed: ”Not just Saint Venerables, even Saint Kings have emerged in our ancestors. My grandfather even says that one of our ancestors entered the Land of Chaos, likely achieving the Saint Emperor Realm. These matters are well known to us!”

”Boast, are you?” Su Yang said, glaring: ”Your ancestors, a Saint Emperor?”

”Hey, don’t look down on us. Our Long Qiu clan isn’t simple!” Long Qiu replied immediately.

Su Yang smirked, ”Not simple? How did you end up like this? Even with Saint Kings and Saint Emperors, almost exterminated?”

”Such things are normal for the Demon Beast Clan. The Six Trigrams Saint Venerable was wiped out by you, wasn’t he?” Long Qiu said, ”The Demon Beast Clan has always followed the law of the jungle, survival of the fittest. After all, resources are limited while the number of demon beasts is too numerous. It’s perfectly normal for them to want to seize resources from you. Now that you’re a Saint Venerable, you’ve got cultivation resources. But what about new Saint Venerables who don’t have such resources? They can only come to take them from you, that’s how they can continue cultivating. Similarly, those powerful Saint Venerables will also choose to target you to gain more cultivation resources, there’s nothing strange about it.”

Su Yang nodded slowly, Long Qiu’s words were very accurate. The survival of the fittest not only applies to the Demon Beast Clan but also to the Nine Realms in the past.

When the Human World was weak, the other Eight Realms all wanted to divide and conquer the cultivation resources of the Human World for this reason.

The Demon Beast Clan was just more obvious than the rest.

Su Yang remembered something, suddenly exclaimed: ”You just said your Long Qiu clan has a Saint Emperor too?”

”Yes, what about it?” Long Qiu watched Su Yang with surprise: ”What’s so surprising about that?”

”Wait, the Demon Beast Clan has more than one Saint Emperor?” Su Yang was astonished.

”What kind of joke are you making, how could there be only one Saint Emperor!” Long Qiu retorted: ”Do you know how many demon beasts there are in the Demon Beast Clan? The number of Saint Emperors is considerable, akin to how each country in the Human World has its territory, isn’t just one Saint Emperor. The Saint Emperor is merely a realm, the highest realm!”

Su Yang was shocked, he used to think there was only one Saint Emperor in the Demon Beast Clan. Now he realized he underestimated the strength of the Demon Beast Clan, or more accurately, underestimated the hidden power within this Endless Starry Sky.

The experts in this Endless Starry Sky are beyond his imagination. The number of Saint Emperors is unknown, while the Nine Realms are truly insignificantly petty by comparison!

Extracting some spiritual sources from the Space Artifact, Su Yang used this round disc to send Long Qiu to Little Bear’s territory. And this distance is the farthest Su Yang can achieve, requiring him to infuse all his power into the round disc to send it this far.

This made clear the difference in strength between Su Yang and the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable. When the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable used the round disc, he could cover his entire territory, but Su Yang could only cover half, indicating a significant gap in power between them.

Long Qiu hastened to the Nine Realms with the Space Artifact to start arranging these matters.

Su Yang stayed in the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable palace, starting to cultivate using the spiritual sources of Six Trigrams Saint Venerable.

After the battle with the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable, Su Yang clearly felt his own shortcomings. When using the round disc, Su Yang realized even more that compared with those veteran Saint Venerables, his strength was still lacking.

As Long Qiu mentioned, after he replaced the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable, he was now in a state of unstable foundation. Nearby Saint Venerables might seize this chance to attack him, which is the most normal occurrence within the Demon Beast Clan.

Su Yang cannot, every time he battles a Saint Venerable, rely on the Devouring the World secret technique to vanquish foes.

The previous spectators were Holy Beasts, and they dared not approach the battlefield, so this matter will not be disclosed. However, next time, if Saint Venerables come, and they witness the battle, the Devouring the World secret technique cannot be used again.

Then, how could Su Yang defend against enemies?

Thus, for Su Yang at the moment, the most critical thing is to quickly enhance his cultivation and first stabilize his foundation. Otherwise, his current territory might be snatched away by other Saint Venerables, and it would all be in vain.

The spiritual sources of the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable are immense, and the spiritual energy within also far exceeds that of those smaller spiritual sources. Cultivating under such spiritual sources accelerates the speed significantly.

Moreover, Su Yang possesses secret techniques from the Heavenly Destiny Treasure Book, which are the most supreme of secret techniques, and the pace of cultivation becomes even faster. Crossing large realms isn’t easy, but progress in smaller realms is swift.

Furthermore, when Su Yang cultivates, his main focus is the Devouring the World secret technique. Utilizing Devouring the World to absorb spiritual energy is dozens of times faster than normal cultivation, this speed is frightening.

Naturally, the consequence of this is that the illusion is becoming ever more realistic. However, Su Yang doesn’t halt this progression.

Currently, he is inseparably linked with the illusion. He doesn’t know what the ultimate result of cultivation will be, but he must hasten to improve his strength. Even if he eventually ends up providing clothes for others, he must persevere.

Alternatively, if this illusion is completely revived, it may even protect the Nine Realms!

After cultivating in Liu Yao City for about ten years, Su Yang advanced rapidly, now able to use the round disc to cover all of Six Trigrams Saint Venerable’s territory. This suggests that he has finally reached the level of power once held by the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable.

And at this time, Su Yang received a challenge letter, finally, a Saint Venerable has come to challenge him!
