CHAPTER 858: CHAPTER 858: QUASI-EMPEROR LEVEL CLASH

Taibai Building, Room 9.

A woman in a blue dress stood in front of the window, looking at the scenery outside.

"Changtian, are you telling me you were defeated by an eleven-star sovereign?"

The woman in blue turned her head to look at Li Changtian.

"Yes, sister! I’ve utterly embarrassed myself. You must help me regain my dignity!"

Li Changtian pleaded.

The woman in blue calculated seriously: "You are an eleven-star sovereign and have mastered your skills to a sophisticated level, plus you have the Green Lotus Bloodline. Unless it’s a twelve-star sovereign or a quasi-emperor powerhouse, no one could be your opponent!"

A twelve-star sovereign is a genius with a Perfect World.

Even in the Green Lotus Ancient Clan, twelve-star sovereigns are extremely rare.

Regarding quasi-emperor powerhouses, dealing with sovereigns is incredibly easy.

With the power of Heaven and Earth, ordinary sovereigns are simply not competitors.

Even a twelve-star sovereign is not enough!

The power to control Heaven and Earth, once engaged, leverages the great momentum of Heaven and Earth.

It’s nothing an ordinary sovereign can compare with!

"Yes, sister! I find it very strange too. The opponent’s cultivation is not above mine, and their Sword Dao seems to be at a similar level of mastery. Yet, I was not their match."

Li Changtian explained.

"Could it be that this person has mastered the pinnacle Sword Dao?"

The woman in blue pondered.

If someone had mastered such a level of Sword Dao, it would be understandable to defeat Li Changtian.

However, a pinnacle-level Sword Dao is extremely difficult to achieve.

She had only mastered it after reaching the quasi-emperor level.

To claim an eleven-star sovereign could master it, she found unbelievable.

"What did the clan elder say?"

The woman in blue asked.

"The clan elder said that boy shouldn’t bully me."

Li Changtian replied.

The woman in blue laughed: "It seems, this person is likely a quasi-emperor powerhouse!"

If not an emperor, why would the clan elder say such a thing?

To bully?

Only a massive disparity in strength could prompt such a remark.

And, the gap between a quasi-emperor and a sovereign is like a chasm.

"A quasi-emperor powerhouse, who has mastered the six forms of the Green Lotus Sword Manual, actually participating in the Immortal Platform Gathering, this person must have big ambitions!"

The woman in blue said.

"Sister, give me a straight answer! Can you help me take revenge?"

Li Changtian cried out.

"Don’t worry, Changtian, in a few days, I will avenge you."

The woman in blue smiled.

After all, no matter what, Li Changtian was her brother.

If Li Changtian was humiliated, it was equivalent to her being humiliated.

And besides, she also wanted to witness Ling Chen’s strength.

...

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Ling Chen had been staying inside the Taibai Building cultivating.

Ever since he mastered the power of Heaven and Earth, Ling Chen focused on comprehending this power.

For advancing to the Emperor Realm, the most important thing is mastering ten percent of the power of Heaven and Earth.

From Ling Chen’s current situation, he should have mastered less than one percent.

The distance to the true Emperor Realm is still very far away.

This day.

A voice suddenly sounded in room twelve: "Ling Chen, someone challenges you, please appear on the battlefield in a quarter of an hour. Otherwise, it will be considered a voluntary forfeit."

The so-called battlefield is actually outside the Taibai Building.

The space within twenty miles of Taibai Building is all open area.

Reserved for the challenges among cultivators.

"Someone actually dares to challenge me?"

Ling Chen opened his eyes.

A slight smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.

Three days ago, he defeated Li Changtian of the Green Lotus Ancient Clan, which was enough to intimidate everyone.

Now, someone still dares to challenge him; they must be relying on something strong!

He wasn’t very fearful.

Even if he was defeated, he could always challenge others at random.

As long as he won the qualification to enter the Immortal Platform, that would be sufficient.

Soon, Ling Chen appeared outside the Taibai Building.

"Are you Ling Chen?"

A woman in a blue dress floated in the air, looking at Ling Chen.

"Yes."

Ling Chen nodded: "And you are?"

He didn’t know this woman.

Yet she challenged him; it probably wasn’t simple.

"My name is Li Qiushui, I’m Li Changtian’s sister."

The woman in blue smiled.

"Oh."

Ling Chen then understood.

It was related to Li Changtian after all.

"I heard you defeated Changtian, I wish to witness your true strength!"

Li Qiushui smiled.

"Is your Green Lotus Ancient Clan unable to accept defeat?"

Ling Chen asked.

"Young Master Ling, don’t misunderstand. I mainly want to know how you defeated Li Changtian."

Li Qiushui said.

Even if she was standing up for Li Changtian, she couldn’t say it out loud.

It involved the dignity of the Green Lotus Ancient Clan.

If they lost, they lost, due to inferior skills.

But if they went on relentlessly, it would certainly cause people to look down on the Green Lotus Ancient Clan.

So her excuse was to witness Ling Chen’s strength.

"You should have understood it."

Ling Chen smiled.

Although it seemed calm, beneath the surface, a storm was already brewing.

The two were already engaging with the power of Heaven and Earth.

Since they both controlled the power of Heaven and Earth, their strengths were naturally on display.

"Young Master Ling, you really are too much of a bully."

Li Qiushui said.

A quasi-emperor targeting an eleven-star sovereign is truly bullying.

Ling Chen said: "I can’t help it, your brother provoked me first. Moreover, I held back and didn’t use my real strength against him. Otherwise, he might not be alive now."

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a loud explosion erupted between the two.

Ling Chen, having controlled the power of Heaven and Earth for only a short time, ultimately couldn’t compare to Li Qiushui.

In the contest of Heaven and Earth power, Ling Chen lost.

"Twelve stars!"

However, Li Qiushui’s beautiful eyes suddenly focused.

After crushing Ling Chen’s power, she immediately sensed Ling Chen’s true strength.

It was the aura of a twelve-star sovereign!

"What, twelve stars?"

Upon hearing this, the cultivators watching were all greatly shocked.

A twelve-star sovereign is only achieved by cultivators with a Perfect World.

It’s unimaginable that Ling Chen actually possesses a Perfect World!

Though there are few Emperor Realm powerhouses, compared to those who possess a Perfect World, there are many more.

Even across the entire Nine Provinces continent, cultivators with a Perfect World are extremely rare.

Li Changkong was also full of disbelief.

This Ling Chen is not only a quasi-emperor but also a twelve-star sovereign level quasi-emperor?

This kind of power is too terrifying, isn’t it?

What kind of force is this guy from, to be so outstanding?

It’s known that even among the Green Lotus Ancient Clan, only very few inner tribe geniuses might have a Perfect World!

"Miss Li, do you still wish to fight?"

Ling Chen asked.

"Fight, of course, I want to fight!"

Li Qiushui’s battle intent suddenly rose.

She had never fought someone at the twelve-star sovereign level quasi-emperor before!

What was previously about personal vendetta now turned into a genuine curiosity to witness Ling Chen’s strength!

"Bring it on, but I hope after this fight, none of your siblings wish to see my strength again!"

Ling Chen said.

To be honest, he also wanted to see the prowess of a quasi-emperor.

He too had never clashed with a quasi-emperor powerhouse!

"Young Master Ling, rest assured, before the Immortal Platform Gathering ends, no more members of my Green Lotus Ancient Clan will challenge you!"

Li Qiushui smiled.

In the Green Lotus Ancient Clan, only she and Li Changtian were participating in this Immortal Platform Gathering.
