We Agreed to Brag Together, But You Secretly Dominated the World

Chapter 350 - 350: Reappearance of Nine Heavenly Tribulations

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Su Chen had yet to transcend his tribulation, but his body was already emitting an extremely powerful aura. This was the first time they had ever witnessed such a situation. Even if one were to search through the entire history, there were probably scarcely any who could accomplish this feat! Perhaps Su Chen was the only one!

“No, something is very wrong here!” A Wang family’s saint stood suspended in the void, his brows tightly knitted. He gazed towards Su Chen’s location and muttered under his breath.

“What has Ancestor discovered?” Wang Yunzong inquired with great curiosity.

“Regarding the rumors surrounding Young Friend Su Chen, are you certain he possesses only one talent, the divine body?” The saint of the Wang family turned to look at him and asked.

Everything about Su Chen was known not just by the Wang family, but by all the other factions as well, including Su Chen’s family background and when he had joined the Great Mystery Sect. From the very start, everyone knew that Su Chen was considered a genius within the Great Mystery Sect and that he seemed to possess a divine body. In the eyes of many forces, this point was nothing more than the Great Mystery Sect being too obscure, failing to recognize the divine body at the first moment.

However, upon seeing Su Chen again now, this Wang family’s saint appeared to have noticed something unusual. Su Chen seemed to not merely possess the single talent of a divine body! He also harbored an extremely terrifying talent – the Supreme Bone!

“Is that not the case?” Wang Yunzong’s heart stirred and he quickly inquired.

Throughout the ages, no matter how astonishing a genius was, they had only ever possessed a single heaven-defying talent. Qin Yuan could be considered an era-defining existence. He was the first to concurrently wield two special talents in one body. Unfortunately, it had already been proven that his Longevity Immortal Body did not actually belong to him. In other words, the ironclad rule that a person could only possess a single talent had yet to be broken. However, the words of the old ancestor today made him feel somewhat uneasy. Could it be that Su Chen also harbored two talents?

“If I am not mistaken, Young Friend Su Chen also possesses the Supreme Bone!” the Wang family’s saint spoke heavily.

“The Supreme…Supreme Bone?” Wang Yunzong and the others were dumbstruck, their faces filled with disbelief. They looked back and forth between their ancestor and Su Chen, who was shrouded in light in the distance. Everyone present was stupefied. This was truly too inconceivable! First, there was Qin Yuan, and now there was also Su Chen! This meant there were already two geniuses in possession of two talents!

Originally, they had been curious as to how Su Chen was able to cultivate so quickly with just a single divine body. But now, it seemed they understood a little. The Supreme Bone! This was also a broad path that led straight towards the Great Emperor Realm! With two talents combined and reinforced within the same body, it would be strange indeed if his cultivation speed was not rapid.

But the key question was Qin Yuan’s second talent had been obtained from someone else. What about Su Chen then? Just where did his second talent come from? Was it innate? Or was it the same as Qin Yuan? If it was a transplant from another person, it certainly did not appear so! After all, the family behind Su Chen was merely relatively powerful within their own small domain. Looking at the entire East Barrens, they were truly nothing remarkable! With such a family background, it was practically impossible for them to have transplanted a piece of Supreme Bone.

“It appears Young Friend Su Chen harbors more secrets than we imagined!” The Wang family’s saint meaningful glanced in Su Chen’s direction and spoke leisurely. In his opinion, Su Chen’s talents were likely innate from birth. However, the reason he did not reveal them was ultimately because he lacked a background like Qin Yuan’s. When Qin Yuan voluntarily exposed his two talents, all he received in return was envy, jealousy, and hatred. In any case, he had the Qin family, the Spirit Race, and the Shadowless Hall standing behind him. Even if others harbored ideas, those thoughts would be limited to just that, and nobody would dare take any extreme actions.

However, in Su Chen’s case, it would be different! In the initial stages of his cultivation, the Great Mystery Sacred Sect was not yet a saint-level power and was far from capable of protecting him fully. If this news had spread to outsiders back then, whether or not he could still be alive today would be uncertain. After all, even if Qin Yuan could transplant the talents of others, it did not mean other forces could not also accomplish such a feat. From this perspective, the Wang family’s saint’s evaluation of Su Chen could not help but rise considerably. For such an individual to already understand the importance of keeping a low profile and biding one’s time in his youth meant he would almost certainly never fall.

Now, Su Chen had already become a saint. Let alone if he merely had two talents – even if he had three, or even four! Others could only exclaim in admiration, not even daring to be jealous. Because even without relying on the Great Mystery Sacred Sect, Su Chen himself was already a terrifying force. The title of “saint” was no jest! A single person could rival a powerful holy land or even an empire!

“From today onwards, Yunzong shall represent our Wang family! Remember, you must establish a good relationship with Fellow Daoist Su Chen! As long as it is within our Wang family’s capabilities, we absolutely must not hesitate or delay!” The Wang family’s saint spoke with solemn severity.

At this moment, he could even foresee an almighty great emperor who would come to dominate the world, or an immortal, slowly rising before him! If he did not seize this opportunity to build strong ties with Su Chen, there would be no chance to do so in the future.

Once the news spread of Su Chen’s two talents, countless forces would likely have the same thoughts as their Wang family. After all, Su Chen was different from Qin Yuan. The former had already grown up and come into his own, while the latter still lingered in the Nirvana Realm. Moreover, Qin Yuan had the Shadowless Hall standing behind him. Even if they tried to draw nearer to him, Qin Yuan might not necessarily pay them any heed. Su Chen was different, he only had the Great Mystery Sacred Sect backing him, so there were still numerous ways to build close ties. For example, helping him at a critical juncture, or forming a marriage alliance. If they did this, would they not have secured a tremendously powerful backer for their family in the future?

“Yes, I know what must be done!” Wang Yunzong cupped his fists deferentially.

Before he had even finished speaking, a deafening boom sounded! A terrifying bolt of lightning tore through the nine heavens, descending from the firmament and striking Su Chen’s body. While no one was paying attention, the lightning tribulation had completely coalesced, enveloping tens of thousands of miles in every direction. Vast as an ocean, it was endless and boundless. From a distance, it resembled an inverted black ocean hanging in the sky.

“Blood-colored lightning!” Upon seeing the heavenly tribulation manifesting in the skies, the Wang family fell silent once more.

While the nine Nirvana Tribulations were already quite rare, it was nothing compared to the nine Saint Tribulations. In a single era, there would be only one kind of such tribulation. Moreover, only those destined to become great emperors could possibly face such heavenly tribulations! Both the nine Nirvana Tribulations and the nine Saint Tribulations were representations of one’s foundations! Because upon reaching the Great Emperor Realm, the divisions of tribulations no longer existed. Those who became great emperors stood alone throughout the ages. The tribulations they faced were ail equally terrifying. For every quasi-emperor, it was a life-or-death situation.

Now, upon seeing Su Chen’s nine tribulations, everyone present was certain that Su Chen was fated to become a great emperor in the future!

Rumble!

After the first bolt of lightning fell, it was as if the entire world had been jolted awake. The endless sea of lightning cascaded down, like the opening of the heavenly river’s floodgates, pouring down to submerge the heavens and cover the earth..
