The Choice of the Five Sects
Long Chen's words shocked everyone.
The leaders of the five sects shook their heads. Although Long Chen was powerful, he was too young …
They had taken a liking to Long Chen's potential. This was also the reason why the five great sects had chosen him as their Holy Disciple. In their hearts, they might be able to nurture him into a supreme being who surpassed the Dao Integration Stage and was comparable to the Human King Stage in ten years or even a few years!
A Human King was the minimum requirement to stand tall in the Ancient Barren Land.
However, the arrival of the Li Clan had completely disrupted their plans. They had no other choice but to compromise.
"Long Chen, what do you have in mind? Let's hear it," the leader of the Hundred Smelting Clan asked.
A cold smile flashed across the corners of Long Chen's mouth as he said coldly, "Kill!"
Kill!
As Long Chen said this, the temperature in the meeting hall of the Wanjian Sect suddenly dropped by a few degrees.
"Are you out of your mind? Kill? How? The Li Ancient Clan has existed in the Ancient Desolate Land for thousands of years and has a Human King expert. Once a Human King expert makes a move, our five great sects will be annihilated in an instant! "The surrounding elders snorted.
Dao Integration Stage cultivators could form a Soul Seed and comprehend the Dao of laws. Below the Dao Integration Stage, some could even form a Dao Body.
Above the Dao Integration Stage was the Human King Realm. Even the weakest clan in the Ancient Barren Land had to have a Human King Realm cultivator!
The Li Clan was located at the edge of the North Region and should be considered one of the nine clans in the Ancient Barren Land. There should not be more than three Human King Realm cultivators in their group …
The leader of the Hundred Smelting Clan shook his head slightly. He thought that Long Chen would have a way to save them. He did not expect it to be just the word 'kill'.
Long Chen did not think much of it. He stood in the middle of the crowd and said coldly, "The Li Clan's bloodline is extremely yin. They even feed on human blood. If you compromise today, what awaits you will be a complete decline.
"Within a year, the five sects will become the place where they choose masculine men and virgins.
"Within ten years, no one from the Nine Great Empires will be willing to enter the five sects.
"Twenty years later, the five sects will only be five mountains!"
…
Long Chen's voice was as loud as a bell, and his words became more and more severe. His Divine Consciousness also spread out. The five Sect Leaders and many Dao Integration Stage elders felt a terrifying aura emanating from Long Chen's body. They couldn't help but feel an urge to submit and kneel before him.
Everyone knew that Long Chen's words were not false. Once they compromised today, their decline would be destined, and the five great sects would have no chance of rising again.
The Wanjian Sect's Sect Master's expression suddenly sank. He said coldly, "Our five great sects have been passed down for so long. We have been united for the sake of leaving this barren land one day and heading to the Primordial Era … to become a Sovereign Personage. If we fail just like this, I will not accept it!"
The five major sects and many Dao Integration Stage elders fell silent upon hearing this.
After a while, Ye Hailan stared at Long Chen and said, "What do you plan to do? I would rather die than go to the Li Clan!"
At this moment, Long Chen might have become her last hope.
Long Chen stared at Ye Hailan. She might have been like this in her previous life as well, but Long Chen's departure made her disheartened.
In this life, Long Chen would never allow such a thing to happen again.
Long Chen stared at the Sect Leaders of the five major sects and said, "Give me resources and time. I can even fight a Sovereign Personage. When the time comes, the Li Clan will be the foundation of the five major sects!"
Long Chen's strong confidence shocked everyone from the five major sects. The Wanjian Sect's Sect Leader was even more shocked. "You mean you want to lead us to destroy the Li Clan, the bloodline ancient clan that has been passed down in the Primordial Era?"
"Resources and time? How much resources and how much time! "the Hundred Smelting Clan Leader said in a low voice.
"Defeat a Sovereign Personage? You're only at the early-stage Void Return realm now. Even if your combat power is heaven-defying, it's only comparable to an early-stage Dao Integration Stage cultivator. Killing a Dao Integration Stage cultivator like Qing Yunzi who relied on elixirs is already your limit.
"If you encounter a Dao Integration Stage cultivator who has congealed a Dao Body, I'm afraid you won't even be able to defeat an early-stage Dao Integration Stage cultivator, let alone a Sovereign Personage!
"From the early-stage Void Return realm to the Sovereign Personage realm, even if you're extremely talented, it's impossible for you to do so without ten years!"
…
Everyone discussed fervently. They couldn't understand Long Chen's words at all.
However, Ye Hailan seemed to have thought of something and was shocked. "The Spirit Veins under the five major sects. If there are Spirit Veins, can you still absorb them like that?!"
Long Chen revealed a faint smile and said in a low voice, "To kill a Sovereign Personage, I don't need to be a Sovereign Personage. As long as I reach the mid-stage Dao Integration Stage, I can kill a Sovereign Personage and have the power to fight!"
Kill a Sovereign Personage!
Everyone was stunned. The Extreme Sect Leader asked Ye Hailan, "What do you mean? So what if he can absorb all the Spirit Veins under the five major sects?"
Ye Hailan replied in a deep voice, "On that day, Long Chen absorbed all the fire attribute spirit veins in the Fire Seed Secret Realm in six days. That's why his cultivation base rose to the Late Stage of the Soul Formation Realm in one fell swoop and killed Jue Wuqing, who was at the Late Stage of the Void Return Realm …"
"After that, he fought Hou Feiyuan, killed the monstrous disciple of the Tongbi Sect, and defeated the Wanjian Sect's Lian Cheng!"
Everyone's expression changed. The Extreme Sect Leader cried out in shock, "You're saying that there's a Spirit Veins in the Fire Seed Mystic Realm and he absorbed all of them in six days? How, how is this possible?! "
"A Spirit Veins have boundless Spirit Veins. Even the breath of an entire sect can last forever. To be able to absorb all of them in six days … Don't talk nonsense!"
No one present dared to believe Ye Hailan's words. However, Long Chen walked in front of everyone. The aura around his body suddenly dissipated, and the shadow of a Golden Core swept out from his dantian …
Above the Golden Core, there was a terrifying aura. The moment the shadow appeared, the surrounding space started to crack inch by inch!
"Everyone here is a Dao Integration Stage cultivator. Naturally, you're familiar with the Golden Core. This Golden Core is condensed from my hundred-thousand-mile sea of vital energy!"
As Long Chen's voice fell, the Golden Core started to spin violently and turned into a boundless Spirit Light.
For a moment, everyone felt as if they were in a boundless Spirit Sea. The Spirit Sea was vast and mighty, and the shadow was like a tide that stretched for a hundred thousand miles!
The shadow disappeared in a flash. In the conference hall at the summit of the Wanjian Sect, all the Dao Integration Stage cultivators and even the Sect Leaders of the five major sects were stunned. Their bodies couldn't help but tremble as they stared at Long Chen.
At this moment, they finally understood why Long Chen was able to battle Dao Integration Stage cultivators even though he was only at the Return to Void Stage!
Heaven-defying talent, the power of the bloodline, and the inheritance of the Heavenly Sword Technique …
"Whether you live or die, whether you take a gamble and enter the Ancient Barren Land, or would you rather be a pig and be kept in captivity? Are you still hesitating?" Long Chen's voice was like rolling thunder.
This was the last chance he was giving to the five major sects.
Everyone from the five major sects fell silent. In front of them was an ancient clan with an inheritance and an exceptional prodigy!
