Chapter 202

    Although the Quasi-Saint Realm had already half a foot in the Saint Realm, it was still vastly different from the Saint Realm.

    This is why many geniuses who could easily defeat enemies across realms in the past found it difficult to contend with those in the Saint Realm after stepping into the Quasi-Saint Realm.

    Because those who could reach this level were all geniuses with extraordinary talent. In addition, the gap between realms made it difficult to cross over.

    Of course, there were also top-level prodigies who could easily cross this gap, with the heirs of various great forces possessing such capabilities.

    However, when faced with geniuses of the same level, they were not much different from ordinary people.

    Boom!

    A terrifying aura suddenly spread out, just like in the past. An unparalleled aura descended abruptly, dark clouds covering the sky like a rolling river, enveloping the entire Primordial Holy Land.

    This was the aura of an impending Heavenly Tribulation.

    Sensing the aura of the Heavenly Tribulation, Jiang Chen’s eyes flashed, and his body shot into the sky like a rocket, heading toward the vast starry sky.

    If he were to undergo the Heavenly Tribulation within the Primordial Holy Land, it would likely drag the entire Primordial Holy Land into it.

    Jiang Chen didn’t want that!

    As the aura of the Heavenly Tribulation spread out, the disciples of the Primordial Holy Land all looked toward the sky.

    “Heavenly Tribulation?”

    “Is it the aura of a Heavenly Tribulation again? Has someone broken through and triggered a Heavenly Tribulation?”

    “It seems to be the Holy Son. I just saw a divine light shoot out from Banished Immortal Peak, straight into the sky. It should be heading toward the heavens!”

    “The Holy Son has broken through again. How long has it been? Less than two years, right?”

    “This speed is too fast! I’ve never heard of anyone crossing from the Quasi-Saint Realm to the Saint Realm in just two years!”

    “This cultivation talent is simply outrageous! Fortunately, I’m not one of those geniuses. If I were, I’d probably be in despair!”

    “Who wouldn’t be?”

    “I heard that not long ago, Huang Qingtian finally stepped into the Quasi-Saint Realm, making the  Immortal Phoenix Clan happy for a while. Some even boasted that Huang Qingtian would defeat the Holy Son!”

    “If they find out that the Holy Son has stepped into the Saint Realm, wouldn’t they be in despair?”

    “By the way, did Huang Qingtian have a Heavenly Tribulation?”

    “No!”

    “Then how do they have the nerve to boast about defeating the Holy Son?”

    Who knows!

    “I wonder how Huang Qingtian will feel when he finds out? If it were me, I’d definitely spit blood!”

    “Indeed!”

    Everyone was both astonished and speechless. They couldn’t comprehend what level Jiang Chen’s talent had reached, to step into the Saint Realm so quickly.

    It was simply unreasonable.

    In the past, even the most monstrous existences would take decades, or at least ten years, to progress through the Quasi-Saint Realm.

    Only Jiang Chen had taken just two years. In the blink of an eye, he had crossed the Quasi-Saint Realm and stepped into the Saint Realm.

    The more they thought about it, the more numb they became. Especially those top-tier geniuses; the hope they had painstakingly built up was instantly crushed by Jiang Chen without mercy.

    “Another breakthrough?” Sensing the aura from the heavens, Huang Qingtian’s expression changed, and he sighed deeply. His normally calm heart was filled with helplessness.

    “Even though I knew you would break through, I didn’t expect it to be so fast. You’re really not giving anyone a chance!” Huang Qingtian was extremely frustrated. He had thought that stepping into the Quasi-Saint Realm would close the gap between him and Jiang Chen.

    But instead of narrowing, the gap had only widened. He couldn’t possibly achieve what Jiang Chen did, reaching the Saint Realm in just two years. It would take him at least ten years.

    “But the major forces won’t let you pass this tribulation peacefully! I wonder if you’ll be able to get through it!” Huang Qingtian muttered under his breath.

    The Heavenly Tribulation is both a trial and a calamity that must be overcome.

    Jiang Chen, now undergoing his tribulation, would inevitably attract the attention of various forces.

    Boom!

    Sure enough, it didn’t take long before, just as Jiang Chen stood in the starry river, someone couldn’t resist making a move.

    Whoosh!

    A large halberd slashed through the void, carrying an overwhelming might as it swept toward Jiang Chen. The immense pressure crushed the surrounding stars to dust!

    “A Saint King dares to jump out!” Jiang Chen’s expression remained calm as he threw a punch.

    Bang!

    The halberd was instantly sent flying. Fortunately, it was a Saint Weapon; otherwise, the entire halberd would have shattered.

    “Since you’ve come, don’t think about leaving!” Jiang Chen murmured, and with one hand, he stepped into the void, forcibly pulling out a Golden Crow.

    “Let me go!” Seeing Jiang Chen’s face, the Golden Crow immediately panicked.

    Even though he was in the Saint Realm, he couldn’t help but feel an instinctive fear when facing Jiang Chen.

    Jiang Chen paid him no heed and crushed him with a single hand.

    Like an ant, he was effortlessly killed. Just like that, a Saint King had fallen.

    Witnessing this, everyone fell silent.
