YM778.TV Chapter 50
Upon hearing this, Su Changsheng was somewhat taken aback. The Ninth Princess still hadn’t given up on that secret realm?
There were rumors about the Great Saint Secret Realm.
Over the past few years, these rumors had already spread throughout the True Saint Continent, attracting experts from other continents as well. Even the Ninth Princess was paying attention to it, but it had yet to appear.
Many experts believed that it was just a false rumor and that the Great Saint Secret Realm didn’t exist.
Even Su Changsheng thought the Ninth Princess would give up on it.
But now, the Ninth Princess was actually inviting him, which suggested that the Great Saint Secret Realm might indeed be real?
However, despite its apparent authenticity, Su Changsheng felt a vague sense of unease in his heart.
Although it was just a gut feeling, it was enough to make Su Changsheng wary.
“Apologies, Ninth Princess, but I don’t want to get involved in these matters right now. Please find someone else more suitable.”
Su Changsheng shook his head and declined.
He had a system, and as long as he didn’t court death and stayed low-key, he would eventually reach an invincible state. There was no need to risk his life in such situations.
This could either be an opportunity or a deadly calamity.
“You are a dignified Saint, and your combat strength can even rival that of a Saint King. How can you be so timid, not daring to explore even a Great Saint Secret Realm?”
Upon hearing this, the Ninth Princess frowned.
Although a Great Saint was powerful, after countless years of their fall, the means left behind in their secret realm shouldn’t be enough to easily kill a Saint King.
As long as one was cautious, at the very least, they could escape and retreat safely.
Moreover, with her, an Imperial Court Princess, leading many powerful experts, this trip to the secret realm could be said to be almost certain.
The reason she invited Su Changsheng to join was merely to offer him some opportunities.
“Princess, I appreciate your kindness!” Su Changsheng shook his head, then pondered for a moment before continuing, “I’m more curious, given your status as the Ninth Princess, shouldn’t a mere Great Saint Secret Realm be beneath your notice?”
This was what puzzled Su Changsheng.
After all, a Great Saint Secret Realm would only contain some treasures left behind by a Great Saint.
For the cultivators of the True Saint Continent, this might be a tremendous opportunity, where obtaining even a small portion could allow them to soar to great heights.
But for an Imperial Court Princess, what does this amount to?
Cultivation techniques? Resources? Powerful experts?
She lacked none of these. Even a Great Saint could probably be easily mobilized by her.
With such a status, why would she care about a Great Saint Secret Realm and stay in the True Saint Continent for three years?
“It’s different. This secret realm doesn’t belong to an ordinary Great Saint but to one with unparalleled combat strength and a very mysterious background. He once shook the Eternal Imperial Court with his power, and… the inheritance he mastered is very important to me. I must obtain it!”
The Ninth Princess hesitated for a moment, but her gaze remained resolute as she spoke.
Very important?
Su Changsheng’s expression was one of surprise, and he immediately recalled the information the system had provided about the Ninth Princess.
She had the potential to transform into the Immortal Phoenix Physique in the future.
Could it be that this inheritance is related to that?
If that’s the case, it indeed explains the Ninth Princess’ interest in the Great Saint Secret Realm.
“If you are unwilling, this princess won’t force you. This princess can understand; this secret realm is indeed not simple!”
Seeing Su Changsheng remain silent in contemplation, the Ninth Princess knew he was declining. Although somewhat disappointed, she sighed lightly and continued.
“That Great Saint was unparalleled in the world back then, possessing the potential of an Emperor. Although she fell unexpectedly, this princess suspects she might have reached the Quasi-Emperor level. This secret realm may appear to be at the Great Saint level, but the dangers within could be exponentially greater!”
“It’s understandable that you don’t want to take the risk.”
“Since that’s the case, this princess should take her leave. By the way, the Myriad Dao Immortal Alliance might hold an auction soon. This princess will be attending, and you might want to keep an eye on it.”
After speaking, the Ninth Princess turned to leave, but at that moment, Su Changsheng’s voice came from the side.
“Ninth Princess, please be extra cautious regarding the secret realm!”
Although his voice was calm, the Ninth Princess could sense the concern within it.
A slight smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
“Hmph. Who do you think this princess is? My means and strength are beyond your imagination. A mere Great Saint Secret Realm is nothing; for this princess, it’s as easy as walking on flat ground!”
The Ninth Princess smiled proudly, then turned and left, her figure disappearing into the vast void.
“Still too weak!”
Watching her departing figure, Su Changsheng sighed inwardly. If he had the cultivation of a Great Saint or Quasi-Emperor, he wouldn’t be so constrained.
“I should marry new wives and concubines as soon as possible!”
Su Changsheng’s eyes narrowed slightly as he made up his mind. He knew that in Wanxiang City, there was a Holy Maiden from the Tianyu Sect named An Miaoyi.
She also possessed a divine physique, and a rare one at that—the Dual Cultivation Divine Physique, the Tianyu Divine Physique.
As long as he reached the Ninth Heaven and combined with her, the power of her primordial essence alone would be enough to help him break through to a higher realm.
Effective for anyone below the Quasi-Emperor level.
“In that case, I should quickly reach the Ninth Heaven, marry her, and combine with her. By then, I will be able to break through to the Saint King level,” Su Changsheng thought to himself.
As for why he didn’t wait until he reached the Ninth Heaven of the Saint King level to combine with her and break through to the Great Saint level?
That would take too long. Su Changsheng feared that by then, she might already have been taken by a prominent figure from the Crimson Refining Demon Palace.
“A prominent figure from the Crimson Refining Demon Palace… Hmph! What does that have to do with me!”
Su Changsheng snorted coldly. With his current strength, he didn’t need to fear any so-called prominent figures.
As long as a Great Saint didn’t descend, he had the confidence to contend with them.
If he broke through to the Saint King level, he would even have a certain degree of confidence against a Great Saint.
The Crimson Refining Demon Palace might be powerful, with a Great Saint overseeing it, but they were situated on another continent. They wouldn’t go to the trouble of coming to the True Saint Continent for a mere Tianyu Divine Physique.
After all, the Crimson Refining Demon Palace had its own enemies to contend with.
“Hmm?”
At that moment, Su Changsheng frowned slightly, sensing an incredibly intense gaze directed at him.
Su Changsheng felt speechless.
He knew it was definitely Su Ziyuan, that rebellious little one who always harbored thoughts of overstepping her bounds.
Su Changsheng sighed inwardly, his figure disappearing from where he stood. Meanwhile, in the arena, after the clan competition concluded, the various faction leaders offered their congratulations and then began to leave one by one.
At the same time, today’s news would quickly spread, shocking the entire True Saint Continent.
Even the Taishi Sect might find it hard to remain calm.
After all, once an upper-tier divine physique rises, its power could threaten the Taishi Sect.
“The Holy Maiden of the Tianyu Sect wishes to see the Ancestor Changsheng?”
On the other side, after Su Yun finished presiding over the clan competition, he soon received a report. His brows furrowed, and his expression turned somewhat grave.
He had also heard of the Holy Maiden of the Tianyu Sect.
She was extremely famous in Wanxiang City, possessing unparalleled beauty that captivated countless young prodigies and even sect leaders.
There was even a powerful Saint who was infatuated with her and attempted to forcefully demand her from the Tianyu Sect, resorting to threats of violence. However, he was scared off by just one sentence from her.
It should be noted that although the Tianyu Sect was a top-tier force, its strength wasn’t particularly formidable, with only an ordinary Saint overseeing it. It was impossible for a single sentence to scare off a Saint.
After some investigation, Su Yun discovered the true power behind the Tianyu Sect.
It was the Crimson Refining Demon Palace.
In the True Saint Continent and the nearby continents, the only hegemon comparable to the Taishi Sect was the Crimson Refining Demon Palace. This demonic sect was known for its extremely tyrannical and cruel methods, often massacring entire regions and refining the flesh and blood of cultivators to break through.
However, this force was incredibly powerful. In the True Saint Continent alone, it had more than one Saint King.
It was rumored that the Crimson Refining Demon Palace had an even more mysterious headquarters, where a Great Saint giant resided.
Therefore, even though their actions were tyrannical and insane, no force dared to challenge them. Even the Taishi Sect was very wary of them.
