Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 1649: Chapter 1648: Star Spirit Cave

Looking at the sincere smile on Chen Fan’s face, Su Han sighed inwardly.

Chen Fan’s thoughts probably represented everyone’s thoughts.

Everyone believed that he had truly reached the Seventh Grade Spirit Transformation Realm within just a few short years from being a Dragon Venerate.

In reality, it wasn’t like this.

The time flow within the Xumi Ring of the Holy Son, although doubled, still counts as time, doesn’t it?

It still must be counted.

If you include the time spent in the Xumi Ring of the Holy Son, Su Han has already spent several hundred years since coming to the Lower-Class Star Region.

Of course, even if it was several hundred years, that was already extremely terrifying, but it wasn’t as exaggerated as Chen Fan and the others thought.

With high talent and abundant resources, it’s impossible to reach the Seventh Grade Spirit Transformation Realm from being a Dragon Venerate in just a few short years.

Each realm needs to be stabilized.

If it weren’t for this, the mighty beings of the Holy Domain would directly elevate their children to their highest potential the moment they were born.

But would they dare?

No!

Those who are elevated without the capacity to endure will experience the risk of bodily explosion.

Thus, Su Han never considered himself a genius; not in his past life, nor in this one.

The reason he reached his current level and consumed less time is entirely due to the experience from his previous life and... a little fortune.

”Your cultivation base is not proportional to your strength!”

Chen Fan glanced around, then whispered, ”Tell me, Senior Brother, if you reach the Spirit Body Realm in the Star Spirit Cave, with just your Martial Path Cultivation, what level of opponent could you face?”

Su Han pondered for a moment before saying, ”Below the Void Heaven Realm, I should have no adversaries.”

Chen Fan was stunned at once!

”Senior Brother Chen, time is limited, so I must leave for now.”

Su Han clasped his fists and bade farewell to Chen Fan, who just stood there in a daze, barely hearing him.

”First Grade Spiritual Body Realm, invincible below the Void Heaven...”

As Su Han’s figure completely disappeared, Chen Fan finally snapped back to reality.

”Su Han, you monster!!!”

...

Su Han heard Chen Fan’s roar.

All he could do was smile wryly.

Even he had to admit, his overall strength... is quite monstrous.

Back Mountain already entered his view.

Su Han’s Divine Sense swept out, revealing not less than a hundred figures sitting cross-legged all around the Back Mountain.

As his Divine Sense extended, these figures also noticed him.

Breaking the silence, Su Han spoke, ”Respected Elders, Outer Sect Disciple Su Han, carrying the Star Spirit Cave key, comes to cultivate.”

”Ah, so it’s Su Han!”

A figure rushed out from the Back Mountain—it was an elder.

Su Han knew this person. He was one of the Pinnacle Elders, named Song Qie.

”Come, come, come over here quickly.”

Song Qie beckoned to Su Han, smilingly saying, ”No need to be so polite. You are our Heavenly Mountain Pavilion’s meritorious official; without you, the current Heavenly Mountain Pavilion might not have survived.”

”With all the Elders present, the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion will certainly exist eternally.” Su Han smiled.

”You young lad, you’re quite good with words.”

Song Qie laughed heartily. ”But to be honest, isn’t calling you ’young lad’ a bit much? Your Magic Cultivation... can even suppress the Void Heaven Realm! My own cultivation means nothing before you; when it comes to strength, I should call you ’senior’.”

Su Han was somewhat helpless, sighed, ”Elder Song, we’ve lived and died together, can we stop with the mutual flattery?”

”Hahahaha...”

Song Qie laughed again. ”That’s true, this old man dislikes those contrived things; they’re too draining, so there’s no need to be so polite between us.”

”Alright.” Su Han nodded.

”Then follow me.”

As Song Qie walked, he said, ”Actually, before you came, the Pavilion Master already informed us you’d be arriving soon and asked us to wait here for you.”

”Pavilion Master?”

Su Han momentarily paused, then smiled and shook his head, ”That woman likes to interfere.”

Song Qie’s mouth twitched fiercely, not daring to say much.

This woman, likes to interfere...

Throughout the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion, only Su Han dared speak about Ren Qinghuan like that.

The unclear relationship between Su Han and Ren Qinghuan was somewhat known to the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion people.

Though they couldn’t believe why Ren Qinghuan would like Su Han, the scene from the day of the battle—where Ren Qinghuan spared no effort to rescue Su Han—was witnessed by them all.

Thus, after the battle, many people quietly discussed the true relationship between Su Han and Ren Qinghuan...

At this moment, hearing Su Han’s words, Song Qie seemed to have guessed something.

...

The Star Spirit Cave is located at the center of the Back Mountain.

Its entrance is truly hard to locate without guidance.

Following Song Qie to this place, Su Han observed the flourishing spiritual energy in the surrounding scenery.

”Give me your key.” Song Qie said to Su Han.

Su Han immediately took out the Crystal Stone and handed it to Song Qie.

Without hesitation, Song Qie’s figure flickered and arrived in the void.

His palm struck the void several times, producing some earth-yellow runes.

As soon as these runes appeared, they were instantly embedded into the void and vanished.

The next moment—

”Whoosh!”

The void was suddenly torn open into a fissure, revealing a giant statue emerging from the void.

Su Han’s pupils contracted.

This statue clearly represented a man, vividly carved, with his left hand behind and his right hand outstretched, gazing into the void with a deep look.

”This is the first Pavilion Master of our Heavenly Mountain Pavilion.” As Song Qie explained, a look of admiration and zeal gleamed in his eyes.

Su Han nodded slightly.

”Swish!”

Song Qie’s figure flickered to the statue, placing the Crystal Stone into its outstretched right hand.

”Whoosh!”

As it was placed, a rich light immediately erupted from the entire statue.

This light quickly gathered, resembling sunlight being refracted, forming a massive Light Pillar.

The Light Pillar extended horizontally, rather than vertically, leading to a place beyond sight.

”This is the passage to the Star Spirit Cave.”

Song Qie glanced at Su Han, ”Enter.”

Su Han’s figure flickered, arriving before the passageway, pondering briefly, he suddenly said, ”This void fissure isn’t real.”

Upon hearing this, Song Qie’s body shuddered, and he couldn’t help but ask, ”How do you know?”

Su Han smiled and shook his head without answering.

He lifted his foot and stepped directly into the passage.

As he stepped in, the passage suddenly disappeared, the statue returned within the fissure, and the crack closed again.

Everything seemed like it never happened.
