Chapter 224: You’re Pushing Your Luck

“In that case, it’ll be easy.”

Su Chen chuckled lightly. As he finished speaking, he slowly stood up and walked out of the carriage.

The moment he appeared, the hearts of the two human experts and the demonic expert who were fighting sank. The thing they least wanted to see still happened. Especially when they saw it was Su Chen who appeared, they became even more apprehensive.

Although Su Chen was only at the peak stage of the Nirvana Realm, they all knew very well that Su Chen’s true combat strength was definitely at the Quasi-Saint Realm!

In particular, the Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouse Su Chen had killed was not an ordinary one. The sect leader of the Illusionary Cloud Sect was a top-tier powerhouse at the early stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm. Yet he still fell at Su Chen’s hands.

From this, it was not hard to see that Su Chen’s strength was likely already comparable to any of the two human experts and the demonic expert.

“Senior Brother, what should we do now? Should we stop first?”

A middle-aged man in gray robes secretly transmitted a message.

He and the other person both came from a very powerful holy land in the East Barrens. However, in these ruins, the influence of a holy land had already been reduced to the minimum. This was because, for anyone who entered these ruins, the forces behind them were not to be underestimated.

In the end, it was because the major forces in the East Barrens had suppressed the rogue cultivators too harshly, leading to fewer and fewer strong individuals among them

“Stop!”

The other person was a young man who looked to be around seventeen or eighteen years old. But in his eyes, there was a sense of vicissitude, as if he had witnessed the ever-changing nature of the world, the passage of time, and the cycles of life. There was a profound depth in his gaze, something that ordinary people rarely possess.

The three of them stopped fighting at the same time, but they looked at each other warily.

Only Su Chen was fast. In the blink of an eye, he had arrived beside the Primordial Sword Grass. He stretched out his hand to grab at the Primordial Sword Grass, about to pluck it.

However…

At this moment, the Demon Race expert let out a roar toward the sky, “Su Chen! If you take another step forward, you’ll be making an enemy of my entire Demon Race!”

“Haha… There are already so many who are enemies of me. What difference does one more Demon Race make?” Su Chen replied disdainfully.

As he finished speaking, with a wave of his hand, he uprooted the Primordial Sword Grass from the ground and grasped it in his hand. Soon after, he slowly swept his gaze over the few people in front of him, and his heart stirred slightly.

The Great Mystery Sacred Sect did not send any Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouses to enter the God Demon Sect this time. Although Su Chen’s combat strength was outstanding, if dozens of Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouses surrounded and attacked him, even if he broke through to the Quasi-Saint Realm, he would probably still die.

The Dashang Empire had sent out five to six Quasi-Saint Realm experts, plus those from the Infinite Demon Sect and the Demon Race. It would be difficult for just Su Chen and Ye Ruxue to snatch away the Black Tortoise’s blood essence. Most importantly, these people could imagine and brag in their minds! Therefore, Su Chen had been making plans from the moment he entered.

After pondering for a moment, Su Chen suddenly laughed loudly and threw the Primordial Sword Grass toward the seventeen or eighteen-year-old Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouse. “Meeting is fate! 1 will gift this Primordial Sword Grass to senior!”

This person was not unfamiliar to Su Chen.

He was the Flame Lord, an elder of the Flaming Fire Holy Land, a middle-stage Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouse who could be ranked among the top Quasi-Saint Realm experts in the East Barrens.

“You want to give this to me?”

Flame Lord looked very young. But in fact, his real age was already over 2,000 years old! In his opinion, he probably no longer had any hopes of becoming a saint in this lifetime. But what he never expected was that in the ruins of the God Demon Sect, there would actually be a Primordial Sword Grass that was tens of thousands of years old. This sword grass held great meaning for him. With the help of this Primordial Sword Grass, his comprehension of the Sword Dao would be able to reach a higher level.

Most importantly, the Primordial Sword Grass could purify one’s essence and enhance the physical constitution. As long as his aptitude could be raised a level higher, he was confident he could become a saint within 500 years!

Originally, this sword grass was only a step away from him. Yet he never calculated that at the final moment, Su Chen would appear. Su Chen was the Holy Son of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect, with unfathomable strength and the record of killing a Quasi-Saint Realm expert.

Flame Lord was still pondering whether to forcibly snatch the Primordial Sword Grass from Su Chen or pay a price to buy it from him. However, what he absolutely didn’t expect was… Su Chen directly gifted it to him without saying anything more. This made it seem like he had just been somewhat suspicious or mistrustful when, in fact, it wasn’t the case.

“Su Chen, are you really giving this to me?” Flame Lord solemnly asked.

“Why not?” Su Chen chuckled lightly.

His situation was similar to Ye Ruxue’s. This Primordial Sword Grass was dispensable to him. However, if he could use this sword grass to exchange for the help of the two Quasi-Saint Realm experts from Heavenly River Holy Land, that would be an immense profit.

“How about this… If you just give it to me directly, I’d feel unworthy. I happen to have a piece of Black Gold Divine Iron here, which I can use for the exchange.” Flame Lord pondered for a long time before speaking.

“Black Gold Divine Iron? The saint-level forging material?” Su Chen was surprised.

The Azure Dragon Sword had been with him for a very long time. Gradually, the quality of his low-grade Dao weapon could no longer keep up with his pace. He had originally planned to start collecting materials after this trip into the God Demon Sect to raise the Azure Dragon Sword’s level. Yet he didn’t expect to gain something here.

With the Black Gold Divine Iron, the Azure Dragon Sword’s quality could be raised by a whole grade, reaching the level of a sacred weapon!

Flame Lord waved his hand, and a piece of divine metal that shone like stars fell into Su Chen’s hands.

Seeing this, Su Chen did not stand on ceremony and kept it in his storage ring.

“Then thank you, Flame Lord!”

“I should be the one thanking you. I will accept this grass. In the future, young friend, if you need anything, just tell me and 1 will do my utmost to help you!” Flame Lord solemnly accepted the Primordial Sword Grass and spoke deeply.

To him, the Primordial Sword Grass was much more valuable than the Black Gold Divine Iron.

“Alright!” Su Chen replied with a smile.

The two of them regretted not having met each other sooner.

When the Demon Race expert not far away saw this scene, his expression instantly darkened. He also needed the Primordial Sword Grass, yet Su Chen had given it to Flame Lord. This way, it would be even more difficult for him to snatch or take back the Primordial Sword Grass.

“Su Chen, you… You are pushing your luck!”

The Demon Race expert took a step forward.

Boom!

Invisible gale forces surged violently in all directions. Beneath his feet, a black ocean condensed, drowning the surrounding mountains. He formed a seal with one hand and pressed down. In an instant, heaven and earth shook as multicolored light soared toward the sky. An enormous seal formed out of thin air, interweaving with divine patterns as it pressed down toward Su Chen..
