Chapter 1578: Shock

“This is impossible. How can your body be so powerful? It’s even tougher than high class magical beasts.” Changyang Xu stared at Shangguan Aojian in shock and disbelief. At that moment, he even began to suspect that Shangguan Aojian was a high class magical beast that had assumed a human form. How else could he explain how Shangguan Aojian’s body was so tough?

Changyang Xu was only a Great Saint Master, but he grew up in the Changyang clan, so he had come in contact with many Sainthood experts throughout his childhood. He had gained a rough understanding of the strength of Sainthood experts, but according to what he knew, Saint Rulers were still unable to endure a full powered attack from him if they did not use Saint Force. Even Saint Kings would not be able to accomplish such a feat. Only magical beasts could achieve such a tough body.

“What a tough body. Probably only sovereign Jian Chen has a body as tough as that aside form magical beasts,” said an old man in the crowd. His voice was filled with amazement. He was a Saint Emperor.

“I may not be able to see the young island master’s strength, but just that attack is enough to determine that the young island master has definitely exceeded everyone’s expectations. No wonder he’s from Three Saint Island. He’s so powerful just at the age of twenty-three. He’s no worse than sovereign Jian Chen in the past, actually,” said a middle-aged man. He was an ancestor of an ancient clan and a Saint King at the Ninth Heavenly Layer.

“The young island master really is worthy of being called a prodigy, but in my opinion, there’s still a great difference from sovereign Jian Chen. After all, sovereign Jian Chen obtained his strength through his own effort, unlike the young island master and the younger master of the Changyang clan, whose strength originates from the support of their families, and the young island master has probably eaten a Violet Cloud Peach in the past,” a ruddy old man nonchalantly added his thoughts to the mix.

Many human experts all clasped their fists at the old man when they saw him. They showed some respect.

The old man was Cangqiong. He was different from everyone else, having become a Saint Emperor from his own hard work, unlike the other Saint Emperors who had all eaten Violet Cloud Peaches. After ingesting an immortal peach, his strength had reached the Ninth Heavenly Layer of Saint Emperor.

Among the four races, there were only a few people who had reached the Ninth Heavenly Layer as Saint Emperors. Aside from Cangqiong and Yadriam, there were the four brothers, A’Da, A’Er, A’San, and A’Si.

And now that the seal preventing breakthroughs to the Origin realm was gone, it was likely that the six peak Saint Emperors would break through.

“Brother, do you admit defeat?” Shangguan Aojian indifferently asked as he stood there with his arms crossed.

Changyang Xu coldly snorted and said, “Even if you’re the young island master of Three Saint Island, you have no right to claim you’re better than me. I’d like to see if you can emerge unscathed from my Earth Tier Battle Skill.” With that, Changyang Xu roared out. Saint Force surged out of his body without any restraint at all. He was enveloped by a thick layer of azure light, caused by his wind-attributed Saint Force.

As he used the Earth Tier Battle Skill, violent gusts of wind appeared in the Changyang clan, kicking dust and sand into the air.
