Chapter 322: Chapter 322: The Saint King Is Injured
Ji Chen’s voice, although not loud, was incredibly clear in the ears of everyone present.
Undoubtedly, his words could be considered as supremely arrogant.
If spoken earlier, it would have surely incited ridicule from everyone.
But now, after seeing Ji Chen defeat two Outer Realm prodigies in succession, the crowd finally realized that he definitely had the right to speak such words.
"This person’s strength is likely not below ours!"
In midair, the dozen or so Outer Realm talents couldn’t help but frown.
By now, they naturally understood this point.
"Who exactly is he? During this era of Celestial Martial, when did such a young master appear?" Someone couldn’t help but speak.
"Don’t say too much, everyone strike together, regardless of whether we can defeat him, if tonight we can’t even make him take a step back, what face will we have to continue walking in this world?"
Such words revealed a flash of brilliance in their eyes.
"Buzz..."
Then everyone could feel an astonishing aura erupt from the dozen Outer Realm talents.
"Though I don’t know your identity, daring to underestimate us like this, you are destined to suffer!"
A cold snort sounded from the sky, followed by the sight of a simultaneous attack by the dozen.
Brilliant rays of light shone, illuminating the night sky, various Martial Techniques were unleashed, transforming into Sword Aura or Void Hand, all directed to press down on Ji Chen.
The momentum caused by the dozen working together was extremely terrifying; facing such an attack, even a Saint Master would likely have a headache.
"Buzz!"
However, Ji Chen remained standing in place, facing the simultaneous attack of a dozen; his expression unchanged. Until the attacks approached his head, he simply pointed lightly towards the void in front.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
What seemed like a simple pointing gesture, however, extinguished all the incoming attacks, transforming into chaotic heatwaves, exploding in the void.
"Ah!"
Moreover, in the air, the dozen all had a change of complexion, then couldn’t help but cough up blood, letting out a cry of agony, and were entirely sent flying by this one point from Ji Chen.
"How is it possible..."
This scene, though described lengthy, actually occurred in just a few breaths.
When everyone reacted, their faces all showed extreme shock, their hearts utterly incredulous.
The dozen Outer Realm talents were all defeated, injured by Ji Chen’s seemingly simple point.
This event is hard to believe; if not witnessed personally, no one would dare to believe it could be true.
"Henceforth, within ten years, none of you shall step into Celestial Martial, or if caught, the consequences are yours to bear."
Facing the surrounding astonishment, Ji Chen showed no concern as he scanned the sky watching the dozen Outer Realm talents, his calm voice seeming to carry magical power, echoing in everyone’s minds.
"Follow me."
After speaking, he turned his gaze to Liu Yuanfei, Jiang Qin and others, then stepped towards the back of Forest Park.
Liu Yuanfei and Jiang Qin exchanged a glance, seeing the surprise in each other’s eyes.
Though unaware of why this white-robed youth sought them, one certainty was that his strength surpassed imagination.
Such a character, if harboring ill intentions towards them, could turn them into dust with a flick.
Filled with curiosity and doubt, they followed Ji Chen towards the back of Forest Park.
Besides Liu Yuanfei and Jiang Qin, Zeng Shiyun and several other talents from various factions also followed closely behind.
These individuals had all received a secret message from Ji Chen and were curious to the extreme.
Soon, at an open area at the back of Forest Park.
Under Ji Chen’s guidance, nearly ten young talents arrived here.
"Sit down, no need for such restraint."
Ji Chen smiled and took the lead to sit in the open space.
Everyone exchanged a glance, then without hesitation, sat around in a circle.
At this moment, their greatest curiosity was undoubtedly Ji Chen’s background and identity.
Some even thought, this youth, seemingly in his twenties, might be an old monster level expert, using a Secret Technique to alter his appearance, unwilling to reveal his true form before others.
"Not sure Senior..."
Someone spoke, seemingly wanting to inquire something.
Ji Chen interrupted, "Don’t call me Senior, I’m only a few years older than you, consider us peers."
Upon hearing this, everyone was surprised, unable to help but exchange looks.
Clearly, most had mistaken Ji Chen as an old monster from a Noble Family or Sacred Land.
Moreover, during this era of Celestial Martial, among the youth, there was definitely no such young master.
But given his cultivation, why deceive them?
What was the point?
Facing their confusion, Ji Chen chose not to explain, his gaze shifting to Zeng Shiyun, directly questioning, "Earlier I heard you saying the Saint King was injured? What happened?"
Upon hearing this, Zeng Shiyun was momentarily stunned, along with Jiang Qin, Liu Yuanfei and others.
This matter was evidently no secret; not only Celestial Martial but across various realms of Daoxuan, many cultivators should know.
Yet why didn’t this unknown young master know?
While doubtful, Zeng Shiyun still explained, "More than a year ago, an Outer Realm expert descended upon Celestial Martial..."
Through Zeng Shiyun’s explanation, Ji Chen finally understood the cause and effect of the incident.
The so-called Outer Realm expert she mentioned wasn’t a cultivator from any other realm of Daoxuan outside Celestial Martial but from another Star Domain!
This starry sky contains Nine Great Star Domains, with Daoxuan as one.
More than a year ago, some cultivators from other Star Domains suddenly descended upon Daoxuan.
Initially, they didn’t cause any incidents, coexisting peacefully with cultivators from Daoxuan’s various realms.
But later, as the number of Outer Realm cultivators increased, Daoxuan thus descended into chaos.
Within the Celestial Martial Southern Region, a force self-proclaimed as ’Cyan Cloud Valley’ descended more than a year ago, establishing numerous strongholds within Southern Region, indicating a desire to occupy Southern Region and even all of Celestial Martial.
The Saint King, being the strongest presence in Celestial Martial, couldn’t ignore this.
He personally ventured to Southern Region, intending to clean up this so-called Cyan Cloud Valley and drive them out of Celestial Martial.
Unexpectedly, Cyan Cloud Valley had two Great Saints stationed in Southern Region. The Saint King fought these two great powers alone, ultimately returning injured, recuperating ever since.
