134: Chapter 134: First Encounter with the Six Paths Supreme Saint!
"Does this mean you're saying the two of us Cultivate too slowly, far inferior to you?"
Wen Qing couldn't help but ask at this moment, her gaze flickering with coldness, while Ling Xiaofeng's eyes revealed an undisguised killing intent.
If Zhao Changsheng didn't give them a satisfactory answer, they would likely give him a severe lesson.
But facing Wen Qing's inquiry, Zhao Changsheng remained unfazed, continuing to speak with a smile:
"Two Holy Lords, you've truly misunderstood. Didn't you ask me how I cultivated to this level and so quickly? Haven't I already made it quite clear?"
"Two Holy Lords, please do not be angry. I absolutely did not mean to mock you. I was merely telling you how I Cultivate. I believe that as long as she follows my cultivation method, your daughter will also advance to the Nascent Soul Stage within two hundred years."
Hearing Zhao Changsheng mention their daughter, Wen Qing and Ling Xiaofeng's expressions changed again. They exchanged a glance, and then Wen Qing said something that even surprised Zhao Changsheng:
"Then would you be willing to become her Dao Companion? As long as you agree to this one thing, the position of Holy Lord will be held by the two of you in the future. Furthermore, given your cultivation speed, there is a chance you could reach the Soul Transformation Stage in the future, or at the very least, become a Late Nascent Soul Great Cultivator. What do you think of this proposal? As long as you agree and swear a heart demon oath never to fail Yuling, we can agree to your request, and we can even help you with the matter regarding the Six Paths Extreme Saint. What do you think?"
Wen Qing's words surprised Zhao Changsheng, but he did not answer immediately.
In truth, he had considered the matter of becoming the son-in-law of the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star more than once before.
He knew very well that with his cultivation talent, as long as he didn't die, the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star would most likely want him as their son-in-law.
Of course, they were even more likely to want to kill him to eliminate the threat he posed.
After all, in some ways, he was a greater threat than Third Aunt Wan or the Six Paths Extreme Saint. Under such circumstances, how could the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star tolerate his existence?
If he became one of their own, that would be a different story.
Zhao Changsheng was well aware of this, so he wasn't overly surprised; he simply sank into thought and didn't reply immediately.
"Thank you for your kindness, Two Holy Lords, but regarding the matter of a Dao Companion, I don't wish to think about it right now. For me, the most important thing at the moment is to deal with the trouble that is the Six Paths Extreme Saint. Once that trouble is resolved, I won't have to worry too much about subsequent matters. I have confidence in this, and I hope the Two Holy Lords can have some confidence in me as well."
Zhao Changsheng's words shocked Wen Qing and Ling Xiaofeng once again, and they pressed him further:
"Then exactly how much certainty do you have?"
"Actually, I don't have much certainty, but there is definitely a chance. If I succeed, I will basically be able to control the entire Holy Demon Island. For the Star Palace, that would be a monumental blessing. Wouldn't you agree, Two Holy Lords?"
Although Zhao Changsheng's words sounded humble, they actually carried an undisguised pride.
It was as if he had absolute confidence in himself.
This feeling made the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star feel somewhat uncomfortable and uneasy.
Regardless, they felt something from Zhao Changsheng that they had never felt before.
This feeling made them both feel a deep-seated wariness toward the Zhao Changsheng before them.
Warier than ever before.
"Since you are confident, then go ahead and do it. If you succeed, the position of Holy Lord will be held jointly by you and Yuling in the future."
Although Wen Qing felt uneasy, she still nodded and made a promise.
In reality, she was just painting a grand vision for him. Zhao Changsheng didn't care much for this empty promise and said with a smile:
"In that case, I thank the Two Holy Lords. I am actually quite interested in the position of Holy Lord. However, before the Two Holy Lords pass away, I will absolutely not harbor any covetous thoughts. I hope the Two Holy Lords can rest easy and not worry."
Zhao Changsheng's words made people feel extremely uncomfortable, especially for the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star; it sounded more like a threat.
It felt as if Zhao Changsheng was going to strike and kill them both. Of course, even they felt this sensation was a bit absurd and impossible.
If killing the Six Paths Extreme Saint was a possibility, then wanting to kill the two of them was almost entirely unrealistic.
The gap in their respective strengths was simply too large, and they were currently in the Star Palace. Trying to kill them here was a suicidal act. Even if the Six Paths Extreme Saint and Third Aunt Wan came here together, they wouldn't be certain of defeating them, let alone killing them. They might even be killed instead, as the Star Palace's Formations and Restrictions were no joke.
As the Star Palace that had unified the entire Chaotic Star Sea for tens of thousands of years, its Formations and Restrictions would give even a Late Nascent Soul Great Cultivator a massive headache, and one could even fall if they weren't careful.
Under these circumstances, they had enough confidence in their own safety.
But what Zhao Changsheng said still made them feel extremely uncomfortable and distressed.
"Fine, you may leave."
Amidst this discomfort, Wen Qing directly issued an order to leave.
Although she really wanted to act and kill Zhao Changsheng on the spot, she felt that since he dared to say such things, he must have a way to retreat safely from their hands.
Even if it was impossible and unrealistic, it still made them wary, so they didn't act rashly and simply told Zhao Changsheng to get out quickly.
"Then I shall take my leave first. Two Holy Lords, take care."
Zhao Changsheng had already anticipated the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star's attitude, so he wasn't angry at all. The smile on his face didn't fade in the slightest as he cupped his hands and left.
In fact, Zhao Changsheng had already prepared to fight the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star, but he hadn't expected them to refrain from acting.
This actually made Zhao Changsheng feel a bit of admiration for them.
"Do you think what he said was true or false?"
As soon as Zhao Changsheng left, Wen Qing immediately asked the more powerful Ling Xiaofeng.
"We should have struck just now and killed him thoroughly. I feel this fellow is even more terrifying than the Six Paths Extreme Saint and Third Aunt Wan. If he really replaces us in the future, it will be a huge problem. The Star Palace's foundation of so many years would be completely destroyed in our hands. That would not be a good thing."
Ling Xiaofeng spoke with a dark expression, and the killing intent in his tone was also completely undisguised.
There was no doubt that if Zhao Changsheng had walked any slower, he might have attacked directly.
"Don't get agitated yet. We can discuss this matter slowly. Let him kill the Six Paths Extreme Saint first. Looking at his current situation, he should have enough confidence to do so. This way, we only need to find a way to kill him afterward. It'll be killing two birds with one stone, eliminating two such future troubles. Once the two of them fall, that Madwoman will be nothing to fear. We won't need to worry too much."
Wen Qing spoke up to persuade him, not intending to have Zhao Changsheng killed immediately. She felt there was something special about his situation.
"You're right. We should indeed be prepared and must not act rashly. We need to avoid any accidents. If an accident occurs, it would be disastrous."
Ling Xiaofeng agreed with Wen Qing's words and nodded.
The killing intent on his face remained completely undisguised.
There was no doubt that he truly intended to kill Zhao Changsheng.
While the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star were discussing how to kill Zhao Changsheng,
Zhao Changsheng went to see the Star Palace Grand Elder and briefly recounted what had just happened.
"What is your purpose in telling this old man these things? Speak plainly."
After hearing Zhao Changsheng's words, the Grand Elder's expression was also not very pleasant as he questioned him.
"It's nothing, I just wanted to ask the Grand Elder to help kill the Six Paths Extreme Saint. I wonder if the Grand Elder is willing to help?"
Zhao Changsheng said with a smile, but his invitation made the Grand Elder shake his head and say:
"If I weren't the Star Palace Grand Elder, helping you would naturally be no problem. But I am, after all, the Star Palace Grand Elder. The Two Holy Lords simply don't have the time or energy to manage the Star Palace's affairs. These matters must be handled by me personally, so I cannot help you. You should look for other Fellow Daoists. I hope you succeed in thoroughly killing the Six Paths Extreme Saint. When the time comes for the Two Holy Lords to pass away, the position of Holy Lord will be yours. However, by then, I will likely have passed away as well. You will have to find a new Elder to help you handle affairs."
The Grand Elder's words seemed somewhat sincere, but Zhao Changsheng didn't believe a single word, because he knew very well that the Grand Elder and the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star were on the same side.
They were all plotting and calculating how to kill him. Zhao Changsheng was well aware of this, but he didn't care because he had enough confidence in his own strength. It was precisely because of this self-confidence that Zhao Changsheng dared to come to the Star Palace to see the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star.
He had even mocked the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star for cultivating too slowly, which was why there were so many troubles; if they cultivated faster, there naturally wouldn't be so many problems.
If it were anyone else, they would have likely been killed long ago, but Zhao Changsheng was different. He had enough confidence in himself to be certain of a safe retreat; at the very least, his life wouldn't be in danger. Zhao Changsheng was sure of this.
"That's truly a pity. I originally thought that when I became the Holy Lord of the Star Palace, the Grand Elder would still be here to help me manage affairs. Then I would have more time to Cultivate and break through, perhaps even reaching the Soul Transformation Stage. Does the Grand Elder think I'm right?"
Zhao Changsheng's words made the Grand Elder's brow furrow involuntarily, but he managed a forced smile and said:
"Since you've put it that way, what's the point of me saying more? You should hurry back and continue looking for helpers. Otherwise, based on my understanding of the Six Paths Extreme Saint, he has likely already started sending people to find you, and might even come for you personally. If he truly comes in person, how much certainty do you think you have of dealing with him alone?"
"Probably none, but protecting myself and retreating safely shouldn't be a problem. I have enough confidence in that. The Grand Elder can rest assured; I am fully prepared. If I didn't have enough confidence, I wouldn't be here chatting with the Grand Elder. It's precisely because I have confidence in my strength that I'm chatting with you. I hope the Grand Elder doesn't mind."
Zhao Changsheng's answer left the Grand Elder somewhat stunned.
The Grand Elder had truly not expected Zhao Changsheng to answer in such a way. His tone sounded very sincere, but the Grand Elder felt it wasn't that simple; Zhao Changsheng surely had another trick up his sleeve.
"Alright, then I'll take my leave first to find some helpers. I hope they'll be of some use and not become a burden to me. Otherwise, all the hard work I've put in during this time will be for nothing. I don't want to work so hard for so long only to end up with nothing and have to deal with the Six Paths Extreme Saint by myself—or worse, fail to deal with him and let him escape."
After Zhao Changsheng finished speaking, he simply patted his buttocks and left, having no intention of staying any longer. As he watched Zhao Changsheng's retreating back, a thoughtful look appeared in the Grand Elder's eyes.
He felt that Zhao Changsheng's words just now were hinting at something, but he wasn't quite clear on the specific meaning yet.
But one thing was certain: Zhao Changsheng definitely possessed a massive secret, one that could even be said to exceed all expectations.
"Could he really be confident in slaying the Six Paths Extreme Saint?"
The Grand Elder couldn't help but have such a thought pop into his head. But as soon as the thought appeared, he felt it was a bit absurd. How could that be possible?
He subsequently tossed the thought to the back of his mind. Even so, he began to instruct the other Star Palace Elders to prepare for any impending crises or trouble.
Regarding the instructions from the current person in charge of the Star Palace, the other Star Palace Elders naturally did not disobey and immediately agreed.
After leaving the Star Palace, Zhao Changsheng returned to the Wonderful Sound Sect.
The Sect Leader of the Wonderful Sound Sect, Zhou Yuan, was shocked by Zhao Changsheng's return.
She truly had not expected Zhao Changsheng to come back; it was quite beyond her expectations.
"No need to be so surprised. I've mainly come back this time because there are some matters that need to be settled. Therefore, don't be so shocked or pay too much mind to it. I'm only here to give you some instructions, and I hope you can be well-prepared."
"Senior, please speak?"
Facing Zhao Changsheng's words, Zhou Yuan was naturally very respectful, not daring to show any negligence or oversight.
"There's no need to be so afraid; I'm not a man-eater. I've come here mainly to have you prepare yourself. This is because I plan to move against the Six Paths Extreme Saint next. But you don't need to worry about anything, because this time I have the help of that Madwoman, Third Aunt Wan. Additionally, I've already invited quite a few helpers who are all Cultivators with grudges against the Six Paths Extreme Saint. With their assistance, the chances of victory are quite high."
"However, you must also be prepared in case I fail and face retaliation."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yuan's face immediately turned pale, and she even showed a few hints of uncontrollable panic.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. The probability of such a thing happening is very small. You just need to be prepared; there's no need to be overly anxious. I will handle everything. Unless some special unforeseen circumstance occurs, I will deal with everything properly."
Seeing Zhou Yuan show such an expression, Zhao Changsheng immediately spoke up to comfort her.
But despite his comforting, Zhou Yuan's panicked, nervous, and worried mood didn't dissipate much. Instead, she merely nodded, indicating that she understood.
"Alright, just get ready. You don't need to worry about the rest."
"Then Senior must be extra careful and must not have any oversights."
Zhou Yuan could only offer a reminder.
"You can rest assured about that; there won't be any problems. I have absolute confidence in this. If I didn't have the confidence to retreat safely and protect myself, I wouldn't have taken on this seemingly impossible task. You should know that while this task is almost impossible for others, for me, there is some hope."
"Then how much confidence does Senior have?"
Hearing this, Zhou Yuan's originally uneasy and worried mood improved slightly, and she followed up with a question.
"In terms of confidence, maybe thirty to forty percent. Regardless, I still have the confidence to retreat safely. So you don't need to be too worried. As long as I don't die, I can certainly protect you all. You can rest assured on that point."
Zhao Changsheng's comforting words put Zhou Yuan much more at ease, and she immediately expressed her gratitude.
"Then I thank Senior."
"It's fine. This isn't some major deal, just a minor matter. If we can slay the Six Paths Extreme Saint, it will be a good thing for us as well. Don't you agree? When the time comes, we can relocate to Holy Demon Island. That is the number one Holy Land of the Demonic Path; the cultivation environment there will surely be much better than it is now. If you can Cultivate there, coupled with my help, I believe the chances of you condensing a Nascent Soul in the future will not be small."
The grand vision Zhao Changsheng painted immediately caused a look of excitement to surge onto Zhou Yuan's face.
Because at most, she had only ever dreamed of advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage in her sleep.
After all, Zhou Yuan was very clear about her own Aptitude. She naturally knew how slim her chances of advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage were; without a Heaven-Defying Opportunity, it was almost an impossible feat.
But now, this Heaven-Defying Opportunity was right before her eyes—the Zhao Changsheng in front of her.
"Thank you, Senior."
"No need to thank me so soon, as I don't have total certainty, though I do have some. When the time comes for us to Cultivate together, I believe we will have a place in this Chaotic Star Sea, and it's even possible to replace the entire Star Palace."
Upon hearing Zhao Changsheng say he would replace the entire Star Palace, the recently eased Zhou Yuan was suddenly startled again.
Because Zhou Yuan truly hadn't expected Zhao Changsheng's ambition to be so great, even thinking of controlling and replacing the entire Star Palace.
This was truly terrifying. it completely exceeded her expectations and imagination; it was something she simply couldn't have conceived.
"What? Do you think my ambition is exceptionally large? Do you think I'm talking about some fantasy that's impossible to achieve?"
Seeing the change in Zhou Yuan's expression, Zhao Changsheng followed up with a question, his smile undiminished.
"No, it's just that I feel the difficulty of this matter is truly quite high. So I hope Senior can plan carefully and not have any oversights. Otherwise, we will truly die without a place to be buried. After all, the current Star Palace has ruled the Chaotic Star Sea for tens of thousands of years; its foundation and capabilities have completely exceeded the scope of what the two of us can imagine."
"I naturally know this. Rest assured, if I didn't have enough confidence, I wouldn't have said those words. However, by that time, I will likely have already advanced to the Late Nascent Soul Stage. I will only start moving once I've reached at least the Late Nascent Soul Stage. If I don't advance to the Late Nascent Soul Stage, I actually won't have much confidence."
Zhao Changsheng's words allowed Zhou Yuan to breathe a slight sigh of relief, because she believed that with Zhao Changsheng's ability, he would have that possibility and confidence after advancing to the Late Nascent Soul Stage.
After all, Zhao Changsheng's cultivation speed and talent were such that a second person couldn't be found even if one searched through the entire history of the Chaotic Star Sea. Under these circumstances, she naturally had confidence in Zhao Changsheng.
However, the prerequisite was that Zhao Changsheng could not act too recklessly; otherwise, he wouldn't even know how he died. Especially, he could not have any impulsive behavior, or Zhao Changsheng truly would die without a place to be buried.
Because the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star were likewise no pushovers. Moreover, the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star had naturally been on guard against Zhao Changsheng for a long time and could not possibly be careless.
"That is natural, for sure. If I couldn't even manage that, then I would have died long ago. So you can rest assured; there won't be any problems. I naturally have enough confidence. I just don't know how long the Six Paths Extreme Saint can hold out this time. I hope he can hold out for a bit longer, as that would give me enough time to prepare and enough time to thoroughly slay him."
Zhao Changsheng's words, which this time carried a hint of arrogance, couldn't help but stir unease in Zhou Yuan's heart. Even so, she couldn't resist speaking up:
"Do you think the Six Paths Extreme Saint might take the initiative to find you and strike first?"
Hearing this, Zhao Changsheng looked at Zhou Yuan with some surprise.
"What you said is correct, and very much so. This is because the Six Paths Extreme Saint has already had Madam Wen invite me, wanting to meet with me. However, my answer was that I'm busy. Since I'm still looking for people and thinking of how to eliminate him, I simply don't have the time to meet him under these circumstances. Don't you agree? If I had that much time to meet him, I would have done so long ago."
"Furthermore, once the two of us meet prematurely, if nothing unexpected happens, he will inevitably strike at me directly, wanting to root me out to eliminate future trouble. In that case, no matter how much I planned before, it would be meaningless and useless, and he would also be able to eliminate the helper factions I invited one by one. This is not a difficult task for him."
Zhao Changsheng continued.
"Then when do you plan to meet him, or rather, when do you plan to move against him?"
"There's no rush for this matter, no rush at all. Why should we be in a hurry? When I've invited all the helpers into position, I will naturally move against him. Regardless, I can absolutely never let this Six Paths Extreme Saint go; only then can I intimidate those fellows who harbor ill intentions toward me. If I don't intimidate those fellows, then my future troubles will only increase more and more, to the point where even I might not be able to fend them off. Under these circumstances, I must 'beat the mountain to shake the tiger' and 'kill the monkey to warn the chickens.' Only in this way can I have peaceful cultivation time later on. Otherwise, the number of Cultivators coming to find trouble with me will surely increase more and more; it definitely won't be few. I am certain of this."
"After all, they are very interested in the Opportunities I possess and very interested in the things I own. No matter how much I say that I don't have any special Opportunities and that I've only relied on my own cultivation talent, they will absolutely never believe it."
Having said this, Zhao Changsheng gave a self-deprecating laugh.
"If you truly slay the Six Paths Extreme Saint, then Senior could be said to be the person in the entire Chaotic Star Sea that no one should provoke." Zhou Yuan nodded in deep agreement after hearing what Zhao Changsheng said.
Because Zhou Yuan also felt that it should indeed be done this way; otherwise, one could forget about having peaceful days later on.
Under such circumstances, one naturally had to be prepared.
"Exactly, one must be prepared." Zhao Changsheng nodded in agreement once more.
"Alright, leave the rest to me."
Once he finished saying this, Zhao Changsheng simply left, having no intention of staying any longer.
After Zhao Changsheng left, Zhou Yuan went to find the Grand Elder again... This time, Zhao Changsheng left Heavenly Star City directly, having no intention of lingering there.
When he arrived at Nanming Island and was preparing to enter for a rest, he suddenly felt a powerful Divine Thought sweep over him.
Immediately after, Zhao Changsheng's expression changed, and he looked toward the direction from which the Divine Thought had been released.
In the next moment, he saw a middle-aged man who could be called handsome appear in his field of vision.
The aura of this middle-aged man felt somewhat familiar to him, similar to Wen Tianren's.
Clearly, both of them cultivated the same Cultivation Technique, and in the entire Chaotic Star Sea, only the Six Paths Extreme Saint and Wen Tianren cultivated this Six Extremes True Demonic Art.
But the Realm of the middle-aged man before him was only the Nascent Soul Early-stage, which couldn't help but make Zhao Changsheng curious, but he quickly reacted.
Before he could speak, the middle-aged man opposite him had already arrived within a hundred zhang of him.
"I am the Six Paths Extreme Saint. I presume Your Excellency must be that Elder Zhao of the Star Palace who is preparing to kill me?"
The middle-aged man's words made Zhao Changsheng nod slightly, because it was just as he had guessed, though the other party needed to add two more words: Incarnation.
"Six Paths Extreme Saint, you should only be an Incarnation. Don't call yourself the Six Paths Extreme Saint; if you were truly the Six Paths Extreme Saint, you would have long been killed by the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star. After all, the Realm of this Incarnation of yours is only at the Peak of the Nascent Soul Early-stage. Compared to the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star, it's not even enough for a single slap from them. So don't try to act big on borrowed authority here; just say what you have to say. If you want to take action and kill me, then naturally there is no problem; you can do it right now."
Zhao Changsheng's words could be said to be completely devoid of any politeness or respect, as if he didn't care about the Incarnation of the Six Paths Extreme Saint before him at all.
Although this Incarnation was only at the Peak of the Nascent Soul Early-stage, with the various Divine Abilities of the Six Paths Extreme Saint, even a Middle Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator would be somewhat wary.
But for Zhao Changsheng, it was still not enough to be a threat, so naturally, there was no need to take it too seriously or pay it much mind.
However, what still surprised Zhao Changsheng was that the Six Paths Extreme Saint had actually sent an Incarnation in person.
And the speed at which this Incarnation arrived was quite fast, which indeed left Zhao Changsheng somewhat surprised.
"Indeed, I am currently just an Incarnation, but even if I am just an Incarnation, you would find it difficult to deal with. After all, I am not the only one who came this time; there are other Fellow Daoists. Are you sure you can deal with so many Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators at the same time?"
Regarding what Zhao Changsheng said, the Incarnation of the Six Paths Extreme Saint was also a bit surprised, but then spoke with full confidence and threat.
"You should know what place this is, right? This is Nanming Island of the Star Palace, and I happen to be an Elder of the Star Palace. Do you understand what that means? You should be very clear; I don't need to say more, right? With just one word, I can summon many Elders to assist. Most importantly and crucially, the Star Palace is not far away. As long as I can delay for a while, I believe the Grand Elder will definitely take action. At that time, with just this Incarnation of yours and a few Nascent Soul Cultivators, it's impossible to be an enemy of the entire Star Palace; you might even be buried here forever. Don't you understand this logic? Or do you feel tired of living and want to leave this Incarnation here? If that's the case, I don't mind fulfilling your wish and giving you a hand."
Zhao Changsheng's words were full of confidence and arrogance, as if he didn't take the Incarnation of the Six Paths Extreme Saint seriously at all, even looking down on him.
"No wonder you dared to take on the mission to kill me. It seems you have sufficient confidence in your own strength."
The Incarnation of the Six Paths Extreme Saint spoke in a quite unfriendly tone.
"If I didn't have enough confidence, I wouldn't have taken on this mission. Otherwise, I would have died a long time ago. Don't you think that's the logic? So take my advice: go back quickly to wherever you came from and don't be insolent here. Because I can call a large number of Star Palace Elders at any time to help kill you. I wouldn't even need to act myself to keep you here forever. You should be very clear about this. Therefore, if you are at all smart, you should leave immediately without staying. Otherwise, you won't even know how you died. Although it's only an Incarnation that falls, it should still be a significant loss for you."
Zhao Changsheng's words were once again full of threats, and completely undisguised threats at that, which made the Six Paths Extreme Saint's expression turn extremely ugly.
"Don't be angry, definitely don't be angry. Getting angry is not good for the body. Especially since it affects one's state of mind, which is even worse for cultivation. Don't you think that's the logic?"
"Alright, I've finished my warning. I don't need to tell you what to do next. Hurry back. With one more Incarnation, maybe you'll have a bit more chance of winning when we fight. If all your Incarnations are destroyed, then not much of a chance will be left."
"You think you can kill me?"
The Six Paths Extreme Saint gave a cold laugh, his tone also carrying a hint of mockery.
"If you weren't worried that I could kill you, why would you come looking for me? And you came so quickly, so fast that it surprised even me. So you must be worried about this matter, which is why you were so anxious to find me. Therefore, there's no need to put on an act here."
Zhao Changsheng's words made the Six Paths Extreme Saint's face darken again.
Because Zhao Changsheng had completely spoken out his thoughts. He was indeed worried, and it was precisely because of this worry that he had to come.
However, he only sent an Incarnation and did not come in person.
"Don't you want to overthrow the entire Star Palace? The Star Palace is just as much a threat to you, perhaps even a greater threat than I am. If nothing unexpected happens, the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star are currently planning how to make us both perish together. Do you really want to perish with me for their sake, or die at my hands?" The Six Paths Extreme Saint continued to persuade with a dark face.
Of course, these words were entirely meant to sow discord.
"There's another possibility, and that is you dying at my hands. After all, this time the Madwoman is prepared to help. Her grudge against you is not small. In this situation, with her help, my chances of winning will be greater, and the probability of your fall will also be greater. So don't even think about being able to kill me. Nine times out of ten, it's you who will die, not me. Do you understand now?"
Zhao Changsheng's words made the Six Paths Extreme Saint's brow furrow deeply.
"Are you not worried that you will die at the hands of the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star?"
"Worried, naturally I am worried, and incredibly so. But for now, I think it's better to kill you first."
"This way, I can smoothly obtain your Holy Demon Island. For me, that's an excellent place for cultivation, so naturally, I can't miss out on it. So just wait for death. If you really want to take action against me, you can also get ready and make full preparations; I won't have any objections to that. As long as you have the ability and the skill, then go ahead and prepare. Just as I am currently making full preparations to kill you."
"Alright, there's no need for us to be wordy here. If you don't want to act, then hurry up and leave. If you want to act, then do it quickly. I also happen to want to see just how powerful your Six Extremes True Demonic Art is."
These provocative words from Zhao Changsheng instead caused a sense of unease to arise in the Six Paths Extreme Saint's heart.
"Do you really not want to overthrow the Star Palace and take that position of Holy Lord?"
The Six Paths Extreme Saint had no intention of acting and instead continued to speak.
"I've thought about it, but I want to rely on my own strength and don't want to use the help of others, especially yours. Because you only want to use me; from beginning to end, you've never thought about giving me any help, only wanting to use me to overthrow the Star Palace as quickly as possible so you can control the entire Chaotic Star Sea. That is your goal. So no matter what you say, I won't believe a word of it. As for overthrowing the Star Palace, I alone am enough."
Zhao Changsheng said with full confidence.
"You really are arrogant enough. Over these tens of thousands of years, I don't know how many Cultivators have wanted to overthrow the Star Palace, but all ended in failure. I didn't expect you to have such great confidence in yourself."
The Six Paths Extreme Saint also couldn't help but mock.
"That's because their strength wasn't enough, because they weren't powerful enough. As long as I smoothly advance to the Soul Transformation Stage, then overthrowing the Star Palace, controlling the entire Star Palace, and controlling the entire Chaotic Star Sea will be within a single thought of mine. Do you think anyone can compare to my cultivation speed? Looking at the entire history of the Chaotic Star Sea, tell me, who could compare to my cultivation speed? There shouldn't be a single person, right?"
"With such a cultivation speed, why do you think I can't smoothly break through to the Soul Transformation Stage? I believe I have the confidence and the ability."
"Then do you think the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star will give you that much time? Will they give you the time to break through? So why don't we two join forces, overthrow the Star Palace first, and then rely on our strength to see who can control the entire Star Palace, how about it?"
The Six Paths Extreme Saint continued to persuade.
"Not interested. I think it's better to kill you first. That way, I'll be even more certain. Don't you think that's the logic? I believe that's exactly the logic, and I have enough confidence. Therefore, you'd better prepare someone to collect your body. That way, you might have a suitable burial place. If you haven't prepared, I can find one for you and will definitely bury you well when the time comes. But as for Reincarnation, don't even think about it. It's impossible for me to arrange Reincarnation for you. I think you should be very clear about this as well."
"You really are arrogant enough!"
"This isn't called arrogance; it's called confidence. I have sufficient confidence in myself. And the source of this confidence is my own strength. If I weren't this powerful, I would probably have died a long time ago. I don't need to say more; you should know this. So there's no need to say certain things anymore; I won't listen. I hope you can understand this and don't think about ways to kill me. Because those methods are beyond your reach."
