Chapter 1965
Although he said sorry, Zi Chen's expression clearly showed that he was showing off. Yi Qian stomped her feet in anger and embarrassment. The void trembled three times, and cracks spread out from under her feet.
To be able to make the goddess in everyone's hearts reveal such a feminine side, the Heaven-Defying experts were all dumbfounded. They could see that Zi Chen had really angered her.
This also proved that this thing was very useful to Yi Qian.
It was said that a woman's heart was like a needle at the bottom of the sea, and her mood was unpredictable. This saying was true for Yi Qian. In the next moment, her angry and embarrassed expression disappeared, and a faint smile appeared on her face again.
That indifferent expression made it seem like she didn't care that Zi Chen had obtained the Saint artifact fragment at all.
Yi Qian smiled at Zi Chen and said softly, "You only know how to snatch. Do you know what this thing is?"
"I'd like to hear the details." Zi Chen shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
"If my guess is correct, this should be the legendary 'shield'."
"Legendary shield? What kind of shield?" Zi Chen was stunned and asked in confusion.
"The only 'shield'. It has no other name. According to legend, this' shield 'has an extremely strong defense. Nothing in the world can break through it," Yi Qian said as she looked at the irregular Saint artifact fragment in Zi Chen's hand.
At this moment, the remaining aliens and Heaven-Defying experts in the city were all looking up at the sky, quietly listening to the conversation between the two people in the air.
"What kind of joke is this? Nothing in this world is absolute. This is a broken thing. Even if it's a shield, it's still a broken shield." Zi Chen shook his head as he played with the shard in his hand that did indeed look like a shield.
"There are many reasons why a 'shield' is broken, but they are only temporary. It is said that as long as you obtain one of the shards, you can use it to find the other shards. Then, you can reassemble the shards, and the 'shield' will be reformed, regaining its strongest defense."
Looking at the incomparably beautiful Yi Qian and listening to her soft words, Zi Chen had a faint smile on his face. He said, "According to what you said, now that I have this' shield 'fragment, I can use this fragment to find the other parts and finally assemble a complete' shield '."
Yi Qian said seriously and affirmatively, "That's right. After being pieced together, this is the saint artifact with the strongest defense."
When they heard the conversation, the people below were in an uproar. There was also a small disturbance. Many of the Heaven Deities' expressions flickered. Clearly, they knew about the existence of the shield.
There were no absolutes in the world. Everyone knew this, but this sentence was not accurate. For example, the world's recognized fastest speed was the Thunder Clan's Nine Lightning Deaths.
Perhaps under certain circumstances, the Thunder Clan's extreme speed would be inferior to other types of speed. But as long as they were at the same level and in the same state of comprehension, the Thunder Clan's extreme speed would be the fastest in the world.
This' shield ', which only had a name, was said to be a saint artifact formed at the beginning of the world. It was the weapon with the strongest defense in the world.
If the fragment in Zi Chen's hand really was a fragment of the 'shield', then it meant that Zi Chen might be able to use the fragment to find this saint artifact with the strongest defense.
Sensing the change in the expressions of the Heaven-Defying Cultivators below, Zi Chen naturally knew why Yi Qian had brought this matter up. She wanted them to spread the news so that all the Heaven-Defying Cultivators would know.
Zi Chen was well aware of the consequences of possessing such a precious treasure.
Nodding at Yi Qian, Zi Chen gratefully asked again, "Thank you for telling me, but I still have some doubts. I hope you can dispel them."
From Zi Chen's expression, Yi Qian could tell that he had sensed her thoughts, but he was not angry. This made her even more curious about Zi Chen, so she said, "What is it? As long as this little girl knows the answer, I will definitely tell you."
Zi Chen swept his gaze over the Heaven Deities below and said, "They surround you every day. Some of them are even hot-headed for you, not hesitating to fight to the death. I don't believe that they admire you because of your appearance or temperament."
Zi Chen's words were very straightforward, but they were the truth.
Perhaps when one was weak, they could encounter that kind of unforgettable love. But as one's cultivation level increased, as one's experience increased, a cultivator's mentality would change. That kind of unforgettable love would naturally not exist. Instead, it was the unforgettable hatred that would always follow them.
These people were all favored by the heavens and were existences that stood at the peak of the world. Such people would never place their thoughts on a woman other than themselves. They would never be hot-headed and risk their lives for a mere Yi Qian.
Hearing Zi Chen ask such a question in front of so many Heaven-Defying experts, Yi Qian's beautiful face was also stunned. However, she still maintained the smile on her face as she gently laughed, "This is no longer a secret in our place. Since you want to know, it's fine to tell you."
"The reason why they favor me is not that all of them like me, but because my identity is special."
Yi Qian's delicate face suddenly had a trace of melancholy.
"What's your identity?" Zi Chen asked curiously.
"My identity is the same as yours. We are both Heaven Deities, but my body is more special. In the endless starry sky, there is a saying that whoever can obtain me can break through the shackles, break through the Divine Road, and become a Saint in one step."
Yi Qian's words gradually became more powerful, and there was sorrow in her words.
Hearing this, Zi Chen was stunned. He did not expect Yi Qian to have such an effect.
In the endless starry sky, these were all rumors, and Yi Qian had undoubtedly confirmed this rumor in front of Zi Chen today, causing an uproar in the city.
Looking at Zi Chen, who was obviously in shock, Yi Qian smiled and asked, "Are you very surprised to hear this? Do you want to become a Saint in one step? If you do, then give me that fragment."
Yi Qian's gentle words were free and easy, but Zi Chen could still feel the unconcealable sorrow in them.
The man who was always by her side was always thinking about her body. Becoming a Saint in one step was a very sad thing in itself.
Looking at Yi Qian's gaze, Zi Chen raised the fragment in his hand again and said, "I don't think this thing is worthy of you, nor is it worthy of exchanging with you."
As he spoke, Zi Chen put the fragment away.
When the people below saw this, they secretly cursed Zi Chen for being shameless. If he did not want to give it, then just give it. What was there to find an excuse for?
An opportunity to become a Saint and an extremely strong defensive Divine Weapon. It was not a good choice to put the two together.
But no one knew that Zi Chen really did not think this thing was worthy of Yi Qian, so he did not want to exchange.
In Zi Chen's opinion, this was not a matter to be exchanged for benefits, so he said lightly, "That's the reason."
"Isn't that reason enough?"
Yi Qian's face revealed a trace of surprise as she asked rhetorically.
Just this reason alone was enough to attract many Heavenly Realm cultivators and Heavenly Realm cultivators from great clans, but Zi Chen did not seem to be interested in her, who had the most value.
Zi Chen shook his head and said seriously, "If it's just to become a Saint, it's not enough for them to follow you around all day. Perhaps they want something else from you."
Hearing Zi Chen's answer, Yi Qian did not know whether to laugh or cry. She thought of something, and a strange light flashed in her eyes. If Zi Chen could say this, it meant that he had not reached the limit of the Heavenly Realm. In other words, Zi Chen's battle prowess still had room to grow.
The Heavenly Realm cultivators below were quietly listening to the conversation between the two. After Yi Qian admitted her usefulness today, they were excited, but also disappointed.
Everyone had seen the battle prowess Yi Qian had displayed earlier. She was almost on par with Zi Chen. Under such circumstances, it was undoubtedly a daydream for them to obtain Yi Qian.
Black Tiger, who had been quietly listening, also had a change in expression. He had a deep understanding of this continent and knew Yi Qian's value in the eyes of those Heavenly Realm cultivators.
"If a Heavenly Realm cultivator wants to go one step further, they will become a Heavenly Realm Saint. Because of their own world, it's very difficult to take this step. It's almost the bottleneck of all Heavenly Realm cultivators, and also the final realm of all Heavenly Realm cultivators."
Looking at Zi Chen in front of her, Yi Qian said, "Because heaven-defying cultivators are too special, they can only be heaven-defying cultivators. It is very, very difficult to become a heaven-defying saint. However, I can make heaven-defying cultivators take this step. You should understand my value now."
Zi Chen nodded. He was slightly shocked. Yi Qian was equivalent to an elixir for breaking through bottlenecks. Everyone at the bottleneck wanted to get it.
"Why don't you go to the Star Path? There should be more opportunities there," Zi Chen asked again.
Yi Qian shook her head and said, "Every Heavenly Realm cultivator is unique, and every kind of heaven-defying energy is unique. They all seem to be moving forward in the dark, and it's very difficult to find the right direction."
Zi Chen had not reached the bottleneck yet, so he naturally did not understand the hardships. After knowing Yi Qian's secret, Zi Chen no longer cared about the other party's deliberate disclosure of the secret of the shield.
The purpose of his visit this time was to become enemies with all the Heavenly Realm cultivators in the world. He was not afraid that they would take the initiative to come to him. His eyes swept around and fell on the Heavenly Realm cultivators below. A cold light flashed in Zi Chen's eyes.
Feeling the killing intent in Zi Chen's eyes, all the Heavenly Realm cultivators' faces changed drastically.
"I won't kill you today, but I will remember your appearance. The next time I see you, you will die."
Listening to Zi Chen's indifferent voice, all the Heavenly Realm cultivators turned pale. Although the Zhan Wu Continent was boundless, the Heavenly Realm cultivators were also very fast. They might encounter them somewhere.
If what Zi Chen said was true, then the next time they met, it would be the time of their death.
"Leave this world and go to the Star Path. Your opportunities are there," Zi Chen said again, his voice still indifferent.
All the Heavenly Realm cultivators looked at each other. It was obvious that Zi Chen wanted to drive them out of this world.
Indeed, if the world lost these Heavenly Realm cultivators, then even if the war broke out again, the natives of the Zhan Wu Continent might not be able to gain an advantage.
These Heavenly Realm cultivators looked at each other and hesitated. Yi Qian persuaded, "Go, Zi Chen has completely grown up. There is no point for you to stay here. It's better to go to the Star Path and find an opportunity. Maybe you can really break through the Divine Path."
