Chapter 3422: The Breath of a Semi-Saint

“Peak Master Shen!”

Qian Hen and Xia Yutang arrived at Danfeng.

As the masters of the two peaks, it was inevitable that they would not show up.

Shen Changqing glanced at them, then at the other cultivators.

Following Qian Hen were three men and two women. Though young in appearance, each exuded a distinguished aura, their cultivation having reached the pinnacle of the Immortal King realm.

Xia Yutang also arrived with several others, one of whom was Shi Li.

Shen Changqing’s gaze lingered for a moment before averting. “Are both peaks ready?”   ”Our Sword Peak’s 300,000 cultivators are ready!” “Our Blade Peak’s 250,000 cultivators are also ready!

”   The   two nodded.   Seeing this,   Shen Changqing nodded. “Since that’s the case, have all the cultivators gather at Danfeng, and then we will journey together to the Thousand Demon Territory!”   ”Yes,”   the two heard, and then they used jade talismans to communicate.   Less than half a day had passed.   Fifty-five thousand cultivators from the two peaks converged on Danfeng.   Elsewhere,   Danfeng’s cultivators had also assembled.   Of the 130,000 cultivators ,   a total of 70,000 now comprised the entire group.   While Danfeng’s cultivator numbers were smaller than those of the other two peaks, no one underestimated them.   Forget about anything else.   Just the presence of Gu Qingyang and his companions was enough to rival the cultivators of the other two peaks.   While Xuantian Dao Sect currently possessed a few ranks, in terms of strength, Gu Qingyang and his companions were considered the pinnacle.   Among the other peaks, only Zhanfeng’s Innate Thunder God Body could rival them.   On Blade Peak,   Silence counted as one.   Then there was Jianfeng,   but there weren’t any particularly outstanding figures.   Not to mention the fact that Shen Changqing, the Danfeng Peak Master, personally led the team.   This Danfeng Peak Master was the most enigmatic of the nine peak masters, and recognized as the strongest of the nine.   After all,   the strength of Gu Qingyang and his companions crushed the other peak masters, and only a handful could truly rival them.   The disciple was already so formidable.   How could the master be ordinary?   Furthermore,   Shen Changqing, though he hadn’t made many moves, had an astonishing record.   Therefore   , based on this foundation, no one would underestimate Danfeng.   ”Since everyone is here, let’s head to the Thousand Demon Territory without further ado!”   Shen Changqing finished speaking, and with a flick of his sleeve, a celestial boat suddenly appeared.   The moment the boat appeared, a vast aura suddenly permeated the air. The surrounding void trembled and shattered, as if unable to withstand the overwhelming force.   Everyone looked up at the boat, their faces filled with horror.   Even Ji Yang’s pupils narrowed.   ”The aura of a Semi-Saint!”   As a Dao Zun-level being in his previous life, how could he not recognize the true nature of the Void Divine Boat?   Furthermore, the Semi-Saint’s aura was so obvious that it was difficult to miss.   At this moment,   the Void Divine Boat appeared.   That terrifying aura suppressed everything   above Danfeng.   All the cultivators were horrified.   Under the oppressive force of this aura, they felt unable to move even a little.   However,   as quickly as this aura had arrived, it vanished.   Shen Changqing effortlessly masked the aura of the Void Divine Ship and stepped onto it.   ”Everyone, come aboard!”   His words reached every cultivator, and they suddenly woke up, suppressing their shock as they stepped onto the Void Divine Ship one after another.   Once they were truly inside the ship, they were able to clearly see the difference within.   Every surface   of the ship’s deck was permeated with the profoundly profound Dao rhyme.   A cultivator of Qian Hen’s caliber, in particular, could sense the ship’s inner stability, as if even their full strength couldn’t shake it in the slightest.   ”This is… an Imperial Immortal Artifact!”   Qian Hen’s mind flashed with this thought, his expression growing in shock.   An Imperial Immortal Artifact!   Even with the current strength of the Xuantian Dao Sect, it was a rare, top-tier treasure.   And more than that.   Ordinary Imperial Immortal artifacts would never possess such a terrifying aura.   After all, while Qian Hen didn’t possess an Imperial Immortal artifact, he had seen them before.   The auras of other Imperial Immortal artifacts were indeed terrifying, but compared to the Void Immortal Boat before him, the difference was worlds apart.   Xia Yutang and the others standing nearby were also stunned.   Clearly,   Shen Changqing’s display of such a supreme treasure had completely caught them off guard.   ”Let’s go!”   Shen Changqing offered no further explanation, merely a thought activating the treasure.   To the other cultivators remaining on Danfeng, the Void Immortal Boat remained motionless. Over time, it gradually became illusory, until it vanished completely.   This scene   terrified the other cultivators even more.   They understood   that this was due to the Void Immortal Boat’s immense speed, leaving behind afterimages.   Elsewhere   ,   aboard the Immortal Boat,   all the cultivators watched the ever-changing scene around them. The astonishing speed was so rapid that even the divine sense could barely grasp a single glimpse.   At this moment.   A barely perceptible light flashed on the jade ring on Ye Yun’s hand, and the voice of Xuanxu Zun appeared in his mind.   ”Hey, this treasure is not simple!”

“Master, have you noticed anything?”

Ye Yun asked calmly.

He too could sense the Void Divine Ship’s extraordinary power, especially the fleeting aura from the front, which had left him feeling startled.

Venerable Xuanxu said, “Under normal circumstances, this supreme treasure should be just an ordinary mid-grade Imperial Immortal Artifact, but that’s not the main point.

Within this treasure, there remains the aura of a Semi-Saint!”

“Semi-Saint aura?”

Ye Yun was startled.

Venerable Xuanxu nodded. “Under normal circumstances, this immortal ship must have once been bathed in the blood of a Semi-Saint, hence its rich Semi-Saint aura.

However, such aura is violent and bloodthirsty, not possessed by ordinary immortals.

If I’m not mistaken, someone must have slain a Semi-Saint-level beast and used its blood to nourish this object, which is why this transformation has occurred!” “

Nourish with Semi-Saint blood!

” A simple phrase,

yet it held astonishing information.

Ye Yun’s eyes shifted, and a multitude of thoughts surfaced in his mind.

He didn’t know why.

He instinctively suspected that Shen Changqing had slain a Semi-Saint beast and used its blood to nourish this supreme treasure.

The moment this thought occurred to Ye Yun, his heart trembled. He

immediately

dismissed it.

Impossible—

even though Ye Yun had never witnessed a Semi-Saint in action, he understood the terrifying power of such a being. Besides ,   to slay a Semi-Saint, one must reach the Semi-Saint realm.

After all,   beings at this level were beyond the reach of an Immortal Emperor.   But the problem was,   in this era, even the most exceptionally gifted could not attain Sainthood.   Without the arrival of the Great Tribulation! Without   the manifestation of immortality!   This was what Venerable Xuanxu had said.   And it was an unbreakable iron rule.   Furthermore, Shen Changqing had ascended to the upper realm less than a million years earlier. Even the most exceptionally gifted could not possibly have reached such a realm.   Therefore,   Ye Yun couldn’t help but chuckle at his earlier thoughts.   ”It seems I’ve been overthinking it!”   He shook his head.   At this moment.   Venerable Xuanxu’s gaze pierced through the jade ring and glanced in Shen Changqing’s direction. As if sensing a connection, the latter glanced back.   Their eyes met ,   and Venerable Xuanxu’s heart trembled again.   In that instant,   he actually sensed a hint of threat from Shen Changqing.   This feeling filled the ancient Semi-Saint with fear.   Until this moment,   Venerable Xuanxu suddenly realized that he was having trouble discerning Shen Changqing’s true intentions.   After all,   even though he was severely injured, with only a remnant of his soul remaining, he was still far beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators.   In the past, Venerable Xuanxu had been able to discern some of Shen Changqing’s potential.   But now,   facing Shen Changqing head-on,   he felt only the Qi and Blood power within him, like the blazing sun, capable of scorching and incinerating everything. Such an immense Qi and Blood power was simply beyond the reach of an Immortal Emperor.   Even immortals who had reached the Semi-Saint level could hardly possess such astonishing Qi and Blood power.   Realizing this,   Venerable Xuanxu was also startled.   Even if a saint stood behind the other party, reaching this point in just 100,000 or 200,000 years would be far from easy.   At least,   as far as Venerable Xuanxu knew, he had never seen anyone else reach this level.   Even if they were directly taught by a saint, Venerable Xuanxu had seen more than one.   But even if they were, what good would that do?   Even with a saint’s guidance, achieving such a significant breakthrough in just 100,000 or 200,000 years was extremely rare.   Then,   Venerable Xuanxu fell silent. He   was shocked,   but after so many shocks, he’d become accustomed to them.   For him now, the most important thing was to quietly recover and mend the damage to his soul. Everything else could be put aside for the time being.   If it weren’t for the aura of the Void Divine Ship, Venerable Xuanxu wouldn’t have emerged from seclusion.   Meanwhile,   Shen Changqing withdrew his gaze.   Venerable Xuanxu’s detection couldn’t be hidden from his perception.   At this moment,   the Void Divine Ship traversed space, and in no time, it had shattered the barrier of the Immortal Realm and entered the Thousand Demon Realm directly.   ”We’ve already reached the Thousand Demon Territory!”   Xia Yutang gasped inwardly.   How long had it been?   Less than half a day at most.   Normally,   an army of hundreds of thousands would take at least several days to travel from the Divine Heaven Territory to the Thousand Demon Territory.   After all, even though the two immortal realms were adjacent, each was vast and boundless. Without a teleportation formation, it was not easy for other cultivators to cross the immortal realms.   But now,   under the Void Divine Ship,   they had entered the Thousand Demon Territory in less than half a day.   Such speed was truly astonishing.   At this moment,   the immortal realm barrier was shattered, and the Void Divine Ship appeared, alarming all forces in the Thousand Demon Territory.   But before they could comprehend the situation, the Void Divine Ship disappeared from their sight.   When it reappeared, it was already hovering above an ancient immortal city.
