Chapter 1203 Age
"None of those three old guys are easy to deal with. I don't know their lifespans or names."
"When I broke through to the peak of the Hedan realm, the three of them warned me not to make a move."
"Based on my observations over the years, they are old timers who don't belong to any faction."
"Their power has likely long since vanished. Maintaining the stability of this realm is their mission."
"However, there is evidence that their shadows were present during the war between Yaodu Mansion and the Sword Sect."
"Four peak Hedan realm experts! You must prepare for the worst!"
Chen Yang took a deep breath. He had originally thought that breaking through to the fifth level of the Hedan realm in such a short period would buy some time for the human race, but unexpectedly...
He was still too naive!
Chen Yang stared intently at the Lord of Yaodu Mansion and the other three old men, and suddenly burst into laughter.
His laughter instantly drew everyone's attention to Chen Yang.
"As expected of the Lord of Yaodu Mansion. I thought I had covered all my tracks, but I didn't expect you, an old geezer, to notice."
"Venerable Wutu was indeed killed by the human race."
"However, for the four of you to try and annihilate the human race is simply wishful thinking."
"Who told you that the human race consists only of us? And who told you that breakthroughs to the Foundation Establishment realm are impossible in human territories?"
Chen Yang's words caused many of the human race to frown.
Chen Yang looked at Wu Min beside him and shrugged, "Shall we take this opportunity to let them witness the terror of the human race?"
Wu Min gave Chen Yang a profound look and vanished in the blink of an eye.
The next second, an extremely terrifying aura resounded beneath the Land of Hope.
"This is... a teleportation array?"
"Since when did the Land of Hope have such a thing!"
Le Jin Lu Tu couldn't believe it, as even some cities in the realm did not possess such arrays.
The arrays he had used before were all temporary!
Maintaining such an array required a terrifying amount of spirit stones on a daily basis.
Just as everyone was stunned by the array, figures began to emerge from it.
"Hmm? Abbot!"
Bei Xuan was somewhat shocked when he saw the figure of his abbot.
Not only because the abbot had appeared in the realm, but also because of the cultivation realm he exuded!
Hedan realm!
And not just newly entered the Hedan realm, but the eighth level of Hedan!
In addition, there were several familiar yet unfamiliar faces.
Wu Min looked at the people before him with a sigh, "I thought I had recovered quickly, but I didn't expect you guys to be even faster."
Before Wu Min had obtained Venerable Wutu's energy, he had only just surpassed the fourth level of Hedan.
These people before him were the ancient martial artists who had previously separated from Chen Yang and the others.
Moreover, they were the oldest batch of ancient martial artists, the same generation as Wu Min and Jiang Jiantao!
These people clearly had their own resources in the realm.
The strongest among them had already reached the ninth level of Hedan!
And there were even signs of imminent breakthrough!
The Lord of Yaodu Mansion was also startled by the appearance of these human powerhouses.
When had the human race possessed such powerful individuals, and so many of them?
Chen Yang wiped the blood from his hands. These people had left their blood when they departed.
Chen Yang knew that, like Wu Min, they not only had powerful pasts but also accelerated recovery.
They could potentially help the Land of Hope in the future, so when establishing the Land of Hope, he had done his best to contact them.
Blood could notify them instantly, and the array could allow them to return to the Land of Hope as quickly as possible.
Shi Xin Chou frowned as he looked at the peak Hedan realm experts before him, but his gaze then fell upon Jiang Taotian.
"Hmm? Jiantao? No, it's not him?"
Wu Min smiled beside him and said, "This one is Jiang Taotian. I suspect he's Jiang Jiantao's illegitimate son."
As he spoke, Wu Min explained to Chen Yang, "Shi Xin Chou and Jiang Jiantao were from the same region back then. Although they weren't from the same sect, they were very close."
Shi Xin Chou did not refute this statement but said strangely, "That guy Jiang Jiantao wouldn't have an illegitimate son. Wu Min, keep an eye on this Jiang Taotian. Once this is over, I'll have to question him properly."
Saying that, Shi Xin Chou looked at Chen Yang again, "To achieve such a breakthrough in such a short period, I have to doubt your identity."
These people had reached this realm before. When they first awakened, they merely lacked spiritual energy.
Therefore, their recovery time was extremely short.
For them, the threshold for breakthrough was flat, like a thin sheet of paper.
But Chen Yang was different... he had broken through level by level!
The Abbot of the Zen Buddhist Temple said, "Amitabha, Benefactor Shi, you may not know, but I have observed Benefactor Chen's three lives. Although obstructed by destiny and veiled by powerful beings."
"His physical form is genuinely that of a twenty-year-old."
Seeing the Abbot of the Zen Buddhist Temple before him, Chen Yang was stunned. The abbot's appearance was exactly the same as the Three Emperor Buddhas of the Zen Buddhist Temple, but Chen Yang felt something was off, unlike the person he knew.
Seeing the confusion in Chen Yang's eyes, the Three Emperor Buddhas' smiles deepened, "Benefactor Chen, are you recalling my future self?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yang's heart felt as if it had been struck by thunder.
Future self?
Shi Xin Chou interrupted the Three Emperor Buddhas' explanation and said to the Lord of Yaodu Mansion with a cold snort, "I've heard quite a bit about Yaodu Mansion during my time in this realm."
"I'll avenge Jiang Jiantao today."
"As for the remaining three old guys, deal with them yourselves!"
As he spoke, Shi Xin Chou's eyes suddenly widened in anger, and his body instantly turned crimson.
A colossal phantom appeared behind Shi Xin Chou. At first, it was ethereal, but within a breath, it transformed into a real body.
The hundreds of feet tall Shi Xin Chou stood in the sky above the Land of Hope, his muscles like mountains engulfing the sky.
This figure was no less imposing than Jing You Shui, who had just departed!
Although his body had become enormous, Shi Xin Chou's speed had not diminished in the slightest.
The three peak Hedan realm experts in the realm were greatly shocked by this sight.
"Divine abilities, more divine abilities!"
"How can there be so many divine abilities? Even Jiang Jiantao back then..."
Before he could finish his sentence, a Buddhist seal appeared before the three of them.
At this moment, Buddhist light radiated from the Three Emperor Buddhas, making it impossible to look directly at them.
Although he was only at the eighth level of Hedan, this palm strike sent a chill of fear into the hearts of the three old men from the realm!
This was a power they had never encountered before!
