No matter where they went, Divine Talisman Masters were revered.
No matter how strong a cultivator was, they were still a single person. However, Divine Talisman Masters were different. They could borrow the power of heaven and earth to create powerful formations. A single top-level formation could take on the heavy responsibility of tens of millions of cultivators. Whether it was used to protect mountains and rivers or to attack cities, Divine Talisman Masters could play a vital role.
In addition, there was another reason. Cultivators who could become Celestial Talisman Masters all had a unique understanding of the nature of the world. They were the wise men in people's hearts and had superior wisdom. Every Celestial Talisman Master had unparalleled talent. Such wise men were easier to accept and worship than experts who could cover the sky with one hand.
There were four Divine Talisman Masters in the Soul Mountain Sect. Without exception, they were all wise people who were revered by countless people. If such people wanted to join the sect, it would be easy. Every Divine Talisman Master was absolutely qualified to control a Soul Mountain and become an existence second only to the elders.
Su Chen was a Divine Talisman Master. This news shocked many people.
They originally thought that Su Chen had gotten in through the back door, but now it seemed that things weren't that simple.
Come to think of it, this elder position was personally appointed by Lady Providence. Su Chen was an unknown young man. What kind of connections or background could he have that could make Lady Providence make an exception and promote him to a guest elder?
This obviously wasn't very realistic.
However, if Su Chen was a young Divine Talisman Master with extremely high attainments in the dao of divine glyphs, then everything made sense.
According to reliable sources, Su Chen wasn't even fifty years old.
Fifty-year-old cultivators at the Clear Heaven Realm weren't rare in the Soul Mountain Sect. There were quite a few of them, but a Clear Heaven Realm cultivator under fifty years old who was also a Divine Talisman Master was one of a kind.
Attainments in the dao of divine glyphs were much harder to improve than cultivation. Many insights required a detailed understanding of the laws of heaven and earth, and the best way to understand them was to constantly increase one's experience. Therefore, generally speaking, those who could reach the Divine Talisman Master realm were already very old. At the very least, the youngest of the four Divine Talisman Masters in the Soul Mountain Sect was over seven thousand years old.
In this way, Su Chen could be called a peerless genius for stepping into the Divine Talisman Master domain before the age of a hundred.
All of a sudden, Su Chen's image in everyone's hearts suddenly became lofty.
How could an elder of the Spiritual Mountain Sect be an ordinary person?
Of course, this was just a thought. After all, it had not been confirmed that Su Chen was a Divine Talisman Master.
However, it would be soon. The news had already begun to spread. Only one of the four Divine Talisman Masters of the Spiritual Mountain Sect would be attracted. They would be able to obtain an answer at any time.
However, the battle was still ongoing.
Under the entanglement of the divine patterns, Su Chen's Fire Lightning Bullet broke through the black mist and flew in front of Barbaric Evil.
Barbaric Evil was a little surprised that the Tai Gu worms had missed. However, his reaction was also very fast. He immediately reorganized the Tai Gu worms and formed a black shield in an attempt to block Su Chen's attack.
Most Beast Tamers' combat strength was very average. They mainly relied on their Imperial Beasts to fight. Because they had to spend a lot of time strengthening their Imperial Beasts and cultivating their compatibility with them, the time they had to train their combat strength would be reduced. Moreover, most Beast Tamers did not have the opportunity to personally fight with their enemies. When they encountered danger, they would let their Imperial Beasts go first. If their Imperial Beasts could defeat the enemy, they would just hide in the dark and enjoy the fruits of their labor. If they encountered an enemy they could not defeat, they would either be killed in an instant or let their Imperial Beasts stall the enemy while they escaped.
Barbaric Evil was already considered one of the stronger Beast Tamers due to his physique. Even so, he would not easily put himself in danger and would definitely not give his opponent a chance to get close to him.
However, Barbaric Evil had still underestimated Su Chen's strength.
Weng!
A spiral-shaped divine pattern suddenly appeared under Su Chen's feet. It directly acted on the space, condensing it into the shape of a spring. The latitude of the space under his feet was forcefully increased by a level. Then, it instantly released the latitude pressure, creating an effect similar to a jet. However, what was being ejected was not matter, but space.
In an instant, Su Chen's speed broke through the limit, almost approaching the speed of light!
Barbaric Evil could not see Su Chen's figure at all. He could not dodge at all. Under such speed, any ability to predict would be useless. This was because the moment his consciousness reacted, the attack had already arrived.
Su Chen clenched his fists tightly. Nine-colored flames and densely packed divine inscriptions coiled around his fists. The black shield formed by the Tai Gu worms could not obstruct him at all. Su Chen's fist had already landed on Barbaric Evil's chest.
Su Chen did not attack Barbaric Evil's head. This was because if this fist landed, Barbaric Evil's consciousness would definitely collapse. With his strength, he would definitely not be able to withstand his fists that were close to the speed of light. He would definitely die on the spot.
It was just a spar. Su Chen would not go so far as to kill the innocent.
"Boom!"
The earth suddenly trembled. The instant the spatial pressure was released, it created a strong spatial shock wave that directly impacted the entire valley. It caused the space within a radius of several hundred miles around Spirit Knight Peak to ripple like waves. Without the cultivation of the Heaven Ascension realm and above, encountering such a shock wave would cause one to faint.
After the loud bang, the exploding flames bloomed. Barbaric Evil was directly blasted out of the valley by Su Chen's fist. When he landed, only his head was left. His body had completely turned into ashes. He was hurriedly brought back by the disciples of Spirit Beast Peak outside the valley for treatment.
"What … what happened?"
"Elder Su's punch just now … did you see it clearly?"
"It's too fast!
Even our Heavenly Eye Ability could not capture it. It's estimated that the speed is close to the speed of light. This punch is too terrifying! "
"Close to the speed limit?
How is this possible? The physical strength of a Great Heaven realm cultivator can't support such a speed. Even if he can reach such a speed, his body will not be able to withstand the huge pressure and collapse before he can attack the enemy. "
"This is not the point. The point is that theoretically, such a speed is impossible to achieve. Even a Heaven's Equal expert can't reach such a speed, unless he is a Divine King expert."
A Divine Talisman Master frowned and said, "Just now I detected a terrifying fluctuation of Divine Runes. That kind of pressure almost made me unable to breathe. If I'm not wrong, Elder Su should have used Divine Runes to compress the space to a higher dimension and then released it to achieve such a terrifying speed. But … even the four Divine Talisman Masters of our Soul Mountain Sect can't reach this level of attainment. Could it be that Elder Su's Divine Rune realm has reached the peak of Divine Talisman Master?"
"How is this possible? The chief Divine Talisman Master of the Soul Mountain Sect is already 24,000 years old. He has been studying Divine Runes all his life and has only reached the seventh-grade Divine Talisman Master. Elder Su is so young. If he has reached the peak of Divine Talisman Master, then … then it's too terrifying."
At this moment, there was a commotion outside the valley.
"Si Nan!
Why is he here? "
"Si Nan is a new true disciple of the Spiritual Medicine Peak. It's very likely that he will become Elder Mu Zirui's last disciple. Now he is in the limelight in the Spiritual Medicine Peak."
"He seems to be from the Great Heaven realm too. Could it be that he is also here to challenge Elder Su Chen?"
