186: Chapter 186 Your Majesty, this matter cannot be rushed!

"What is this matter you want to talk about?"

Chen Xian's brain was practically smoking at this moment.

He couldn't mention things from before he came to this world, because as the Emperor of the Da Gan Dynasty, Li Zhen could easily investigate and find out the truth.

He had to find a Breakthrough from within himself.

Thinking of this.

Chen Xian slowly spoke, "You should know about my Legacy, right?"

A look of disdain appeared on Li Zhen's face.

"Nothing more than the successor of the Fearless Sword Saint. If that Sword Saint were still alive, I would respect him somewhat, but he has already perished. Using that to scare others is fine, but trying to use his name to intimidate me is utterly laughable!"

"You only know half of the story!"

"Oh?"

Chen Xian gave a mischievous grin.

"How do you know Revered Master is dead?"

"Kid, stop trying to scare me!"

"I'm not falling for that."

Chen Xian sneered.

"You want evidence?"

He said seriously, "Fine, I'll give you a piece of evidence!"

"If I'm not mistaken, you've met a Saint Disciple in the past few days, haven't you?"

*Hiss!*

Li Zhen's previously calm face was now filled with shock.

He looked at Chen Xian in disbelief.

"You actually know about the Saint Disciples?"

From the expression on his face, Chen Xian knew he had gambled correctly.

He had obtained this piece of information earlier.

He spoke it today, intending to take a gamble and see if he could intimidate this man.

Looking at it now, the effect was significant!

Indeed, Li Zhen's face was full of disbelief.

"Saint Disciples only interact with Quasi-Saints of the Five Continents. How do you know about them?"

Chen Xian let out a cold laugh.

"Between a Saint Disciple and a Saint's successor, whose status do you think pleases the Saint more?"

As soon as these words were spoken.

A layer of cold sweat appeared on Li Zhen's forehead.

A Saint Disciple was merely the Saint's spokesperson in the Five Continents.

The Saint resided high in the Thirty-Third Heaven and could not descend at will; the Saint Disciple served as the Saint's messenger in the Five Continents.

Although their status was lofty and arrogant.

But compared to a Saint's successor...

...there was simply no comparison.

Especially since Li Zhen, as a Quasi-Saint, was well aware of the secrets of the Five Continents.

In the Five Continents, although Quasi-Saints were already at the ceiling of combat power.

And could command the forces of the world.

There were two types of people they could not command, let alone dare to provoke.

One was the Saint Disciple.

As for the other, it was the elusive successors of the Saints!

A successor under a living Saint could say "I have someone above me" wherever they went.

A Sword Saint was the most protective of their own among all Saints.

Seeing Chen Xian's brazen attitude.

Li Zhen's suspicion had grown even stronger now.

"If Revered Master had fallen, how could I possibly know about the Saint Disciples? And how could I have summoned you here so fearlessly?"

Li Zhen narrowed his eyes.

"So you're saying the Fearless Sword Saint didn't die when he challenged the Thirty-Third Heaven back then?"

Chen Xian sneered.

"Naturally."

"But I heard that the Fearless Sword Saint challenged twenty Saints in a row, and in the end, his Sword Dao was shattered, and he perished in the Thirty-Third Heaven."

Chen Xian said expressionlessly, "Revered Master was indeed injured, but you can certainly try and see if an injured Sword Saint can still slay you!"

These words caused Li Zhen's face to turn completely pale.

Damn it.

These words caused infinite despair to well up in his heart.

It was as if something he had long set his eyes on had been snatched away by another.

Seeing Chen Xian right in front of him.

He was powerless to do anything.

Even a wicked thought appeared in his mind.

What if he killed Chen Xian here without anyone knowing and immediately attempted to charge for the rank of Immortal Emperor?

If he became an Immortal Emperor, surely even the Fearless Sword Saint wouldn't dare to settle scores with him?

"If you're thinking of killing me now and immediately charging for Immortal Emperor, then you should consider how deep the bonds between Sword Cultivators truly are!"

"Among the Immortal Emperors, just how many Sword Cultivator powerhouses have received favors from my Revered Master!"

These words made Li Zhen's expression darken a few shades.

At the same time, his wicked thoughts vanished instantly.

Sword Cultivators were the most unique group in their Cultivation World, and the Sword Dao was the most resolute path among all forms of cultivation.

Among them, they valued sentiment, bonds, and favors the most!

The Fearless Sword Saint had been famous for a long time.

His Sword Qi was incredibly overbearing.

Although he had always been alone.

Who would dare gamble that no one among the Immortal Emperors had received his favors?

For experts at the level of Immortal Emperor, they couldn't wait to repay any Karma they owed as soon as possible.

Only then could they attempt to reach the realm of a Saint.

Even if he became an Immortal Emperor.

He would become a thorn in the side of other Immortal Emperors.

At this moment, Li Zhen...

...exhaled a long breath of turbid air.

He seemed to have aged decades.

The Chen Xian before him was absolutely untouchable.

Even that Saint who harbored a grudge against the Chen Family Bloodline would probably have to yield a bit when facing the Fearless Sword Saint.

Just then.

Chen Xian coughed.

"Actually, I have one more piece of information I want to tell you."

"Speak!"

"You want to obtain the Immaculate Sacred Body for only one reason: to use Possession on me, become the Revered Master of this body, and thus extend your Lifespan to better charge for the rank of Immortal Emperor. Am I right?"

Li Zhen nodded.

He spoke frankly, "That's right."

"But who told you that one must do that to become an Immortal Emperor?"

"What do you mean?"

"What you need now is time, but having more time doesn't necessarily mean you can charge for the rank of Immortal Emperor. Instead, it might cause you to be tainted by even more worldly Karma."

"If you find a way to charge for the rank of Immortal Emperor in a short time, wouldn't your dream come true?"

Li Zhen said with a bitter smile, "You make it sound easy. For a Quasi-Saint to cross this hurdle and become an Immortal Emperor is no different from a commoner jumping off a cliff and remaining unharmed. How difficult is that?"

"Difficult doesn't mean impossible!"

"What do you mean?"

Li Zhen's breathing quickened.

"Do you have a way to Breakthrough as a Quasi-Saint?"

Chen Xian: "..."

Moon Demon couldn't even bear to look.

'Come on, man.'

You're asking a silly kid at the Golden Core Stage if he has a way to Breakthrough as a Quasi-Saint.

Does that even make sense?

Chen Xian nodded with a solemn expression.

"I do!"

"However, this method is in Jubei City. Before he died, my old man said that the Jubei Marquiss Residence was for me to explore slowly. I discovered some mysteries within it, and it seems there is a way to Breakthrough as a Quasi-Saint there!"

If anyone else had said this, Li Zhen might not have believed it.

But it involved Invincible Chen.

That man who was omnipotent in his eyes and could even become his nightmare.

Li Zhen truly held a sense of awe, or perhaps even fear, in his heart.

That man was by no means ordinary.

Especially that Bloodline.

Perhaps he really did have a way to break the deadlock.

"Then we're going to Jubei City right now!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down."

Chen Xian said with a wry smile, "My strength needs to increase before I can open the things my father left behind."

"If they are forced open, everything will surely be destroyed."

"So, Your Majesty, this matter cannot be rushed!"
