As soon as he said this, everyone was shocked.
Su Chen successfully passed the twelfth floor?
Among the younger generation of cultivators, his strength was indeed top-notch, and his background was also unfathomable. He was able to build the Fortress of the Gods and establish the number one sect in Wan Du. Those famous sects in the past were completely suppressed. But after all, he was still too young.
They were well aware of the difficulty of the Immortal Tower. Even the Sky-reaching Empress behind him could only reach the fifth level, let alone Su Chen.
Everyone knew that Su Chen's first impression was that he was a pretty boy from the Sky Reaching Empress' family.
Even though no one dared to underestimate Su Chen's abilities, most people still believed that Su Chen's achievements today were all due to the Sky Reaching Empress' support.
A guy who relied on women to get to where he was today was suddenly claiming that he passed the twelfth floor and was going to inherit the throne. How ridiculous was this? How arrogant was this?
But …
For some reason, everyone subconsciously felt the power contained in Su Chen's words. The majesty of an invincible powerhouse descending to the world made even some of the old antiques shudder in fear. They wanted nothing more than to kowtow to Su Chen.
Since when had this young man grown to such a level? His aura was almost on par with Yao Guang's.
Could it be … he was telling the truth?
The sudden disappearance of the Tower of Immortality was most likely due to someone passing the twelfth floor. Now that Su Chen had personally stepped out to confirm it, he didn't jump out to refute the claim. This was the best proof.
Su Chen smiled faintly. "Yao Guang Holy Mother, how long are you planning to watch from the sidelines?
Could it be that as an immortal king, you don't dare to admit what you've said and want to go back on your word? "
Just now, Su Chen had sensed the Yao Guang Holy Mother's aura nearby. However, she didn't reveal herself. She probably wanted to observe the situation. Su Chen didn't give her the chance to do so.
Everyone was startled and looked around one after another.
Yao Guang knew that she could no longer hide and was forced to reveal herself.
In the blink of an eye, Yao Guang gracefully appeared in the crowd.
Everyone opened up a path for him.
Yao Guang walked straight towards Su Chen.
"The Immortal Realm cannot go a day without a ruler. My words naturally count. However, I am very curious. With your cultivation base and strength, how did you manage to pass through the twelfth level of the Immortal Tower? If you used some kind of trick to deceive the world, then I will not agree."
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Su Chen knew that she wouldn't be so willing to hand over the throne, especially to Su Chen.
But … now that things have come to this, it's not up to you to just refuse.
No one could stop Su Chen from sitting on the throne of the Immortal Emperor.
This was not the courage that was silently given to him. For Su Chen, who now possessed two origin nomological laws, his combat strength was enough to surpass that of an Immortal King or even an Immortal Emperor. Even if the Flame Emperor was resurrected and the other twelve Ancestral Sorcerers appeared, Su Chen would not back down.
Confidence came from strength.
Su Chen smiled faintly. "You are absolutely right, Holy Mother. The throne of immortal emperor is of utmost importance to the entire cultivation world and Hongmeng. It represents unparalleled authority and authority. It cannot be taken over by those with ulterior motives. It would be a great misfortune if the throne were to fall into the hands of traitors."
Yao Guang's brows furrowed.
Did Su Chen know about her contract with Vivian?
As the current ruler of the world of immortals, she'd signed a contract with the emissary of the Primordial Demon Land and used the Heavenly Pagoda to reap the lives of many cultivators. If Su Chen publicized this, her reputation would be ruined.
Not only would countless cultivators in the cultivation world condemn her, but many immortals in the world of immortals wouldn't tolerate her existence either.
Yao Guang found herself in a sticky situation.
"This child cannot be allowed to live."
Yao Guang's murderous intent had been aroused.
But on the surface, she wore a sincere smile.
"Fellow daoist Su Chen's words are true. After my investigation, it was indeed you who successfully challenged the twelfth floor of the Immortal Tower. Then, according to our agreement, I invite fellow daoist Su Chen to return to the Lingxiao Palace. I will summon the immortals to witness your ascension to the throne of the Immortal Emperor. Henceforth, all three realms will submit to you."
Hearing Yao Guang's sudden change in tone, everyone present was dumbfounded.
What … what was going on?
Was it true?
Was Su Chen really going to rule the world of immortals and become the ancestor of all immortals?
"Then I'll have to trouble you to lead the way."
Su Chen smiled faintly.
He was sure that Yao Guang's Holy Mother was looking for an opportunity to lure him away, then find a place to kill him and end everything.
Now that he'd caught her in the act, there was no way she'd give in so easily.
"Fellow daoist Su, please come with me."
Yao Guang waved her hand and a bridge to the heavens appeared in the air. She brought Su Chen straight to the world of immortals.
Su Chen clasped his hands behind his back and stepped onto the bridge, heading straight for the world of immortals.
However, Momo didn't follow. She'd already disappeared without a trace, leaving only a message for Su Chen. "This woman isn't as strong as you. You should be able to handle her. I'm going to take a look around first, I'll find you in a couple of days."
Su Chen's lips curled. Momo had been lonely for too long. Now that she had the chance, she didn't want to rest for even a moment.
"Fellow daoist Su, why are you laughing?" Yao Guang asked.
"Nothing. Let's end this quickly."
"Why do you say that?"
"Don't hit me. You just want to find a place to kill me, right? Why go through so much trouble? There's no one else here. Why don't you just do it?" Su Chen couldn't be bothered to continue acting with Yao Guang.
Yao Guang fell silent for a moment and said, "I didn't want to come to this, but your existence has indeed affected me greatly. Even if I have to completely fall out with the Candle Dragon, I still have to do this."
Yao Guang's aura changed as soon as she finished speaking. Her black hair fluttered in the wind and her dress fluttered. She waved her hand and a cold frost descended, wanting to freeze Su Chen.
"God-level frost laws. Not bad, not bad."
Su Chen said calmly. Then, he raised his hand and waved it as well. The blazing power of laws surged out and melted the frost falling from the sky.
Yao Guang's body trembled under the impact of the laws. She was in disbelief. "I didn't expect you to grow to this extent. Seems like I don't need to hold back anymore."
As she spoke, she blasted more than ten god-level laws at Su Chen at the same time.
In an instant, the color of heaven and earth changed.
Yao Guang was confident that even other immortal kings wouldn't dare to take such an attack head-on.
So what if Su Chen grasped a god-level law? He was still no match for her.
"Is this all you've got?
To be honest, you've disappointed me. "
Su Chen shook his head. He couldn't be bothered to waste any more time. He waved his hand and the original-level time laws enveloped her.
"I … I can't move!"
Yao Guang's beautiful eyes were filled with shock.
