Chapter 287: Two Peerless Talents

Huo Xi’s skin was radiant, shimmering with a dazzling luster. Above her unparalleled beauty, her eyelashes were long, and her eyes held a faint mist.

She had intended to express her gratitude with words, but the words stuck in her throat. Su Chen’s kindness had reached an incomparable level, and anything she said would seem inadequate. It was better to wait until she had the power to convey her gratitude properly.

With this thought in mind, Huo Xi’s gaze towards Su Chen gradually grew resolute.

“The next part depends on you,” Su Chen said calmly.

As he spoke, he lightly waved his hand. In an instant, a silver river appeared in the void, resembling stars falling from the sky and converging into a river of stars. Along this river, spiritual Qi rained down, spreading for hundreds of miles and forming small mountains around Huo Xi. Each of these mountains was hundreds of feet tall, and there were roughly a dozen of them. Together, they created a rudimentary Spirit Gathering Formation, channeling the surrounding spiritual energy to converge in the center.

Around Huo Xi, this spiritual energy transformed into a lake floating in the void, creating surging waves.

Everyone present was left dumbfounded by this sight. How many billions of spirit stones would this require? Was it 500 million or even a billion? Most of these spirit stones were supreme-grade, far surpassing low-grade ones. The combined value of all these spirit stones could rival that of a sacred weapon. In the entire East Barrens, how many factions could provide a sacred weapon to help someone break through to the Nirvana Realm?

“Did Su Chen plunder some faction’s spirit stone mine?” someone whispered, raising suspicions.

Sui Shang and Flame Lord discreetly touched their storage rings. They had initially intended to assist Su Chen, but it now seemed unnecessary. Su Chen’s wealth alone could easily ensure Huo Xi’s successful passage through the nine Nirvana Tribulations.

The virtual interface appeared once again, with characters flashing a golden light. Following that, a terrifying force surged within Su Chen’s body.

Buzz…

Within Su Chen’s chest, a small sun-like object seemed to appear. An unparalleled power accumulated within it. Suddenly, a deafening roar reverberated, as if the heavens and earth were splitting apart. Above Su Chen’s chest, a milky-white bone had formed. It wasn’t large, only the size of a bone joint, but it contained an unparalleled providence.

Countless supreme patterns permeated the bone, interweaving like the laws of heaven and earth, carrying the supreme Great Dao. The sound of the Great Dao emanated from the bone as if an ancient supreme-ruler were elucidating the principles of the universe to Su Chen.

Simultaneously, a majestic golden rune surged into Su Chen’s mind.

After a long while, Su Chen slowly opened his eyes and felt the surging power within him. He murmured, “The Supreme Bone? I didn’t expect it to be the Supreme Bone!” A smile tugged at the corners of his lips. He was excited. From this moment forward, he could be considered someone possessing two peerless talents.

What made him stronger than Qin Yuan was that his second talent was not forcibly seized from others; it was a reward from the system. Judging by the system’s previous performance, its abilities were likely beyond the constraints of this world’s laws. In other words, Su Chen’s Crimson Flame Divine Body and Supreme Bone were innate talents, and there was no risk of backlash after obtaining them.

“Fortunately, the power of the Supreme Bone has been sealed by the system. Otherwise, when this bone appeared, it might have stolen the limelight from Huo Xi as she transcended the ninth Nirvana Tribulation,” Su Chen murmured with a wry smile.

While the Eternal Forbidden Body was exceedingly rare, there would still be one or two that appeared in each era. However, the reason the Eternal Forbidden Body was renowned was primarily due to its immense fame in ancient times. In contrast, the Supreme Bone and the Crimson Flame Divine Body were extraordinary. Each of these talents was exceedingly rare in history. Now that both were within a single person, many would instinctively think of Su Chen as the second Qin Yuan, or perhaps even consider Qin Yuan as the second Su Chen.

The combination of two peerless talents was a terrifying prospect, enough to make anyone tremble at the thought and leave them with no desire to resist.

“The Supreme Bone is indeed extraordinary,” Su Chen muttered softly. With the support of this bone, he sensed that his strength had increased several-fold in an instant, becoming even more terrifying. Now, even he didn’t know what level of strength he had reached.

“Hmm?” Not far away, the Spirit Race Patriarch let out a soft exclamation, filled with confusion. He looked at Su Chen with doubt, wondering, “Is this an illusion?” In that brief moment, he had clearly felt Su Chen’s strength increase significantly. However, upon closer examination, Su Chen appeared no different from before, his aura ethereal and vast, seemingly unchanged.

Because of this, his confusion grew. One had to know that a cultivator’s intuition was incredibly sharp. Many experts trusted their intuition more than their eyes. What they saw could deceive them, but their intuition wouldn’t.

“What’s wrong?” Qin Li asked.

“Nothing,” the Spirit Race Patriarch shook his head slightly, saying softly, “I must have been mistaken.”

In an instant, Su Chen hadn’t cultivated, taken any pills, or gained any opportunities, so how could his strength have surged? Perhaps he was just paranoid.

“The Supreme Bone is likely a terrifying talent in the Immortal Realm, perhaps even on par with Qin Yuan’s Mystic Eyes,” Su Chen speculated after carefully sensing it. He glanced at the Qin family. However, he didn’t know if the existence of the Supreme Bone would be revealed and whether forces from the Immortal Realm would seek him out.

Although this world had declined, it had always been connected to the Immortal Realm. Many Great Emperor Realm powerhouses had entered the Immortal Realm in the past. But there were some who had been rejected by the Immortal Realm in the end. Ultimately, it was because not everyone could enter the Immortal Realm at will. Even great emperors had to be the top existences among their peers to enter the Immortal Realm. As a result, some factions maintained close ties with the Immortal Realm. The Shadowless Hall was one of them, and there were others as well. However, these forces were very secretive and rarely revealed themselves.

“Next…” Su Chen looked at Huo Xi not far away, and his expression changed slightly as he murmured, “Next, we’ll have to see her performance. I hope she won’t disappoint me….”
