Eternal Bonds: A Journey with the Fated Immortal

Chapter 49

Innate Dao Physique and Innate Dao Fetus.

Although there was only a one-character difference, their levels were worlds apart, and their potential was fundamentally different.

An Innate Dao Fetus would surprise her and make her recruit them with all her might. Even if she couldn’t recruit them, she would invest in advance just to gain friendship and goodwill.

But now, a mere divine physique, even if it was a top-tier divine physique, was not worth her paying much attention to.

“However, although it is not a Saint Physique, the fact that a small True Saint Continent can produce a top-tier divine physique is indeed surprising. You win!”

The Ninth Princess looked at Su Changsheng and admitted defeat frankly.

Her character was such that if she lost, she lost, and she wouldn’t resort to any petty tricks.

“The Ninth Princess has great spirit!”

Su Changsheng praised with a hand gesture, “The Ninth Princess is indeed extraordinary. Though she has the pride of an imperial clan, she is also very candid and can face her own failures with composure.”

“Hmph, of course. Let’s watch the competition!”

The Ninth Princess snorted proudly and then turned her gaze towards the arena.

At this moment, the battle in the arena had already begun.

But in front of the now-transformed Su Ziyuan, all were defeated in a single move.

In three years, she had already ascended to the Heaven and Human Realm, her progress astonishing. Her current combat strength was so formidable that it made the eyelids of the older generation of experts twitch in shock.

Boom!

In the arena, Su Ziyuan’s expression remained indifferent. With a simple strike, her vast magical power invoked the divine chains of order in the heavens and earth, overwhelmingly crushing the Su family genius.

The terrifying fluctuations made some Yuan Dan Realm cultivators feel a sense of dread.

This was already comparable to their level.

One must know, she was only in the early stages of the Heaven and Human Realm, merely at the third level.

“A mere third level of the Heaven and Human Realm, yet she can unleash power close to the fifth level of the Yuan Dan Realm!”

“This is the power of an upper-tier divine physique. Crossing realms to kill enemies is as simple as eating and drinking!”

“It’s too defiant of the natural order. The gap between people in this world is truly immense!”

On the high platform, even the top experts, including the various sect leaders at the Half-Saint Realm, had their eyebrows twitching violently, feeling a wave of shock and awe.

As Half-Saints, their vision was high, but they still couldn’t compare to the Ninth Princess. They could only discern that Su Ziyuan possessed an upper-tier divine physique.

But even so, it was still incredibly terrifying.

One must know, in their youth, they were also top-tier geniuses, reigning supreme in their respective regions. Otherwise, how could they have become Eternal Realm, or even Half-Saint Realm powerhouses?

But compared to Su Ziyuan on the stage, the difference was vast.

Su Ziyuan had unleashed combat strength that surpassed an entire major realm.

“Is that Su Ziyuan? How did she become so powerful, like a completely different person!”

“Wasn’t she a waste? Regressing instead of progressing in her cultivation for three years, how did she become so monstrous now and even possess an upper-tier divine physique?”

“An upper-tier divine physique! Our Su family is defying the heavens. In thousands of years, she will be a Saint King!”

Not only were the experts from various forces shocked, but the elders of the Su family, including Su Yun, and even a group of young juniors were all bewildered.

Especially the clan members who were familiar with Su Ziyuan were completely dumbfounded at this moment.

When did Su Ziyuan become so defiant of the natural order?

Some young boys and girls of the Su family looked at the arena, where Su Ziyuan shone brilliantly like an unparalleled divine maiden, their eyes filled with amazement.

So beautiful, so powerful.

“Is that the fluctuation of an Imperial Scripture?”

The Ninth Princess raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes curving with a hint of a smile as she looked at Su Changsheng.

“Ninth Princess, just a couple of incomplete Imperial Scriptures, not worth being so surprised about!”

In response, Su Changsheng replied with a faint smile.

Not worth being surprised?

The Ninth Princess let out a scoff. One must know, even Great Saints would covet an incomplete Imperial Scripture, and even Quasi-Emperors would be tempted.

Su Changsheng, a mere Saint, being able to obtain incomplete Imperial Scriptures, was enough to indicate his mysterious nature.

There must be a great secret.

However, since Su Changsheng was unwilling to divulge it, the Ninth Princess wouldn’t pursue the matter to the end.

“Boom!”

In the arena, Su Ziyuan was surrounded by Dao light, with the order of the Great Dao manifesting around her. Blossoms of divine flowers appeared, exuding a sacred aura. With a simple palm strike, the Great Dao roared, invoking the divine power of order in the heavens and earth, pressing down with terrifying might.

“Poof!”

The Su family genius on the other side was defeated with a single palm strike. Even though his cultivation level was higher than Su Ziyuan’s, he was still beaten to the point of coughing up blood and could only smile bitterly as he cupped his hands in defeat.

“This younger cousin is truly formidable. She has the potential to become a figure like the Ancestor Changsheng in the future!”

The Su family genius who praised her was a handsome young man, dressed in white, looking exceptionally elegant and possessing a refined demeanor.

“I am Su Canghai. May I know how to address my younger cousin?”

He looked at Su Ziyuan, his eyes flashing with amazement. Such an exceptionally beautiful woman, he had never seen before.

“Remember, the Ancestor Changsheng is the greatest. My lifelong goal is merely to follow to the Ancestor Changsheng’s side!” However, Su Ziyuan responded coldly, not even glancing at Su Canghai, and then turned to leave the stage.

This scene made Su Canghai’s mouth twitch slightly in embarrassment. It was clear that she didn’t think much of him, and he could only leave dejectedly.

“She’s too powerful. Canghai is already one of the top geniuses in the clan, and he was defeated in just a few moves. There’s no need to mention the other clan members!”

“It seems that the first place in this clan competition will be hers!”

“Su Ziyuan, this clan member’s talent is truly peerless. I wonder if the Ancestor will take notice of her!”

On the high platform, the Su family elders were discussing among themselves, unable to contain their amazement.

Meanwhile, Su Yun silently contemplated.

He had not forgotten the instructions of Ancestor Changsheng, to seek out peerless divine maidens and fairies of divine physique levels.

Over the past few years, leveraging the increasingly formidable influence of the Su family, he had already identified several candidates, only needing to confirm them.

And now, Su Ziyuan’s monstrous talent, coupled with her attitude towards Ancestor Changsheng, immediately made Su Yun’s thoughts become active.

Should he consider pairing Su Ziyuan with Ancestor Changsheng?

One must know, Su Ziyuan possessed an upper-tier divine physique and extraordinary talent. She was destined not to marry outside the family but to stay within the Su family. So why not marry her to Ancestor Changsheng?

With Su Ziyuan’s talent, combined with Ancestor Changsheng, they would surely produce an extraordinarily gifted genius, perhaps even another upper-tier divine physique in the future.

Su Yun secretly calculated in his heart, fully embracing the role of a matchmaker.

Boom!

In the subsequent clan competition, it was entirely Su Ziyuan’s solo performance, sweeping through the arena and defeating her opponents with a single move.

In the end, she became the first and ascended the high platform to receive her reward along with the other top hundred clan members.

However, while receiving her reward, her gaze was fixed on the main seat on the high platform.

That was Su Changsheng’s position.

Her gaze was so intense and blatant that it made even Su Changsheng feel a bit uncomfortable.

It was the first time he had ever been so eagerly desired by someone, to the point of impatience.

Wasn’t this usually something he did?

“Tsk tsk. Su Changsheng, it seems this clan member of yours has some ulterior motives towards you!”

Beside Su Changsheng, the Ninth Princess also noticed the intense gaze. How could someone of her caliber not?

As the possessor of the Nine Phoenix Saint Physique and a descendant of the True Phoenix Clan, her insight was exceptionally sharp, immediately discerning the underlying implications.

For a moment, her gaze towards Su Changsheng carried a playful and enigmatic meaning.

This was an attempt to seduce the Ancestor!

One had to admit, it was very bold and quite unconventional.

But the Ninth Princess quite admired this bold style, and her opinion of Su Ziyuan rose significantly.

“Ninth Princess, it’s just your imagination!”

Su Changsheng’s expression remained unchanged as he responded calmly.

He couldn’t possibly tell the Ninth Princess that this rebellious descendant might be planning to seduce him tonight, could he?

Even with Su Changsheng’s thick skin, he couldn’t say that out loud and could only brush it off.

“Hehe… Since the competition is over, it’s time for this princess to leave!”

The Ninth Princess gave a mocking smile but didn’t say anything further. She then stood up, looked at Su Changsheng, her eyes flickering, and extended an invitation:

“By the way, for the upcoming Great Saint Secret Realm, will you be joining this princess?”
