179: Their terrifying strength shocked the Xuan Tian Realm!

Watching Su Chen instantly crush Ye Qingcang to death, the world fell into a deathly silence. Countless people gaped, their eyes filled with disbelief.

All the powerhouses in the entire Southern Region stared at this scene, dumbfounded, their minds seemingly having crashed, unable to react at all.

Not only them, but the members of the Ye Family were also filled with confusion and bewilderment, their minds full of question marks.

This lasted for a moment before the entire Southern Region instantly erupted into an uproar.

Someone was the first to regain their senses, eyes wide, staring at this scene in disbelief.

"This... how is this possible! Ye Qingcang is dead! He was instantly killed by Su Chen!?"

Just now, when Su Chen killed Ye Qingcang, almost no one saw what happened. In the blink of an eye, Ye Qingcang had fallen.

Is Su Chen's strength really this terrifying?

The various powerhouses of the Southern Region all felt their scalps tingle.

No, it shouldn't just be the Southern Region. Many people were watching just now; many powerhouses from the Northern and Western Regions had extended their Divine Sense, or were spying directly using the power of the Heavenly Dao.

However, the sight of Su Chen killing Ye Qingcang left them all dumbstruck.

"This... Su Chen killed Ye Qingcang!" Someone's lips were trembling, their eyes filled with an indescribable color of fear.

"Ye Qingcang was at the Peak of the Supreme Saint, only a step away from the Quasi-Emperor Realm. Even if Su Chen is strong, he shouldn't be able to kill him instantly, right? How exactly did he do it?"

"No, we all underestimated Su Chen. His strength is truly terrifying."

"I think I saw it too. Su Chen used nothing but his Physical Body to slay Ye Qingcang. Can the Physical Body of a Supreme Saint really be this strong?"

Throughout the Southern Region, countless people wore expressions of shock. When they discussed Su Chen again, there was absolutely no trace of the previous disdain or mockery; there was only gravity and horror.

"He killed Ye Qingcang. Will those Old Ancestors of the Ye Family just let it go?"

"Ye Qingcang was only a Supreme Saint, but the Ye Family still has Quasi-Emperor powerhouses. No matter how strong Su Chen is, he can't defeat a Quasi-Emperor powerhouse, right?"

"Not necessarily. I estimate the strength Su Chen displayed is close to Quasi-Emperor Rank Three or even Quasi-Emperor Rank Four. Ordinary Quasi-Emperors really can't do anything to him."

"You are wrong. The Ye Family is not simple. They should have several Old Ancestors who haven't fallen, and it seems Emperor Feng hasn't fallen either. That is a Quasi-Emperor Rank Nine powerhouse. Given the situation in the Southern Region, he could manifest if he wanted to."

"Killing Ye Qingcang is a blood feud. Su Chen is only a Supreme Saint; no matter what, he can't defeat a Quasi-Emperor Rank Nine, right?"

The discussions continued, and this time, their tone was obviously much more serious. Even if they believed Su Chen would be defeated by the Ye Family's Quasi-Emperor powerhouses, they would no longer mock him, because with the strength Su Chen had displayed, they simply weren't qualified to mock him.

At this moment. Mount Cang, Ye Family. Ye Wushang's face was blank; everything before his eyes exceeded his comprehension. Ye Qingcang... had actually died!? This was something he had never expected.

In his expectations, the best outcome was for Su Chen to suffer heavy injuries to block the attack and eventually be worn down to death by the Ye Family's powerhouses. However, he never imagined that not only would Su Chen easily block the onslaught of the many powerhouses, but he would also effortlessly kill Ye Qingcang, who was at the Peak of the Supreme Saint.

Su Chen raised his hand and tossed away the thoroughly dead Ye Qingcang. With a wave of his hand, he put his clothes back on, then looked toward the members of the Ye Family with a cold expression.

In an instant, the Ye Family's Grand Elder snapped to his senses. The Patriarch is dead! But the next moment, he roared in terror: "Activate the mountain-protecting Formation, defend against the enemy!"

Clearly, Su Chen's strength exceeded his imagination and expectations. It was too terrifying! To be able to kill the Patriarch in an instant.

As his roar echoed, the many Ye Family Elders beside him immediately began to perform casting gestures, and a terrifying emperors might instantly spread out.

Upon sensing this emperors might, all the powerhouses throughout the Southern Region couldn't help but shrink their necks, their faces filled with fear. A Great Emperor! This was the Peak of the Xuantian Realm.

Although a Quasi-Emperor is also called an Emperor, it is a completely different concept from a Great Emperor powerhouse. If there are enough Supreme Saints, they have a chance to kill a weaker Quasi-Emperor powerhouse, but no matter how many Quasi-Emperor powerhouses there are, it is extremely difficult to kill a weaker Great Emperor powerhouse. Because between a Quasi-Emperor and a Great Emperor, there is an unreachable chasm.

Su Chen... is doomed this time! The Ye Family possesses a true Emperor-level Formation; it was left behind by the Ye Family's Great Emperor. Although it requires a Great Emperor powerhouse to fully unleash its power, the Ye Family can still manage one or two tenths of it.

It is absolutely strong enough to obliterate anyone below Quasi-Emperor Rank Five. If the Ye Family's Quasi-Emperor powerhouses control the Formation, they can wipe out any Cultivator below the Emperor Realm. Even a Quasi-Emperor Rank Nine cannot resist it.

The most critical point is that Su Chen is currently inside Mount Cang. Inside an Emperor-level Formation, isn't it hard to even survive? A Formation of this level, even if a Quasi-Emperor Rank Nine powerhouse entered it, would not dare to claim they could retreat unscathed.

Su Chen's expression was indifferent. His figure instantly vanished from where he stood. When he appeared again, he had already arrived beside the Ye Family's Grand Elder, and he raised his hand, grabbing fiercely.

The Ye Family's Grand Elder felt as if he were being crushed by some terrifying force; his entire body was instantly compressed into a ball, blood constantly flowing from within. His eyes were filled with despair and disbelief.

"How is it possible... so strong!" He never imagined that Su Chen's strength would be terrifying to this extent. Is this still a Supreme Saint?

He was also at the Late Stage of the Supreme Saint, yet in front of Su Chen, he had absolutely no power to parry, just like an ant facing the vast sky. Powerless, desperate. A casual strike from Su Chen was enough to kill him.

Without the support of the Ye Family's Grand Elder, the Formation began to dim gradually. For Su Chen, he could easily see through Emperor-level Formations, so he naturally discovered that this Grand Elder was the core hub for activating the Formation; killing him made it difficult for the Formation to start. Even if it did start, its power would likely be greatly reduced.

Earlier, when Su Chen killed Ye Qingcang, many people didn't see what happened, but when he killed the Ye Family's Grand Elder, everyone saw it clearly. Countless people widened their eyes, their heartbeats accelerating. This is too terrifying! Could it be that Su Chen is not a Supreme Saint, but a Quasi-Emperor Realm powerhouse? Otherwise, it is hard to explain why Su Chen can so easily slay those of the same Realm.

Throughout the ages, there have been many powerful Supreme Saints within the same Realm, but none of them could be as terrifying as Su Chen; it was almost a complete crushing, a dimensionality reduction strike. Such terrifying strength made everyone watching the battle feel their scalps tingle.
