Chapter 480 480: Bragging Gone Too Far, the Serious Celestial South Saint Master
"What!?"
"Promoted to Destruction Level at eighteen, did I mishear you, or did you make a mistake in speaking!"
At this moment, Wang Ming was instantly unsettled.
After all, as the Extraordinary Realm advances, it becomes difficult to discern someone's age by their appearance.
Therefore.
Wang Ming always regarded Su Qi as someone not much older or younger than themselves. Even if there might be slight differences, he never imagined that the other party could be that young, almost younger than their grandchildren.
However.
He quickly realized the problem within.
If such a genius really exists, how could he remain unknown?
Even if he wasn't from the same Holy City, a genius of this level would have already made waves, known to everyone.
Upon hearing about Lord Su Qi's death, Nie Bao, among others, no longer concealed anything, and said arrogantly, "Isn't it unbelievable? If I tell you, Lord Su Qi not only reached Destruction Level at eighteen but wasn't even from any Holy City, rather, he achieved such heights within just a year of awakening on his own, in the resource-poor Ninth District, what would you say then?"
At this.
Even the Celestial South Saint Master, who was initially just observing, couldn't sit still. His eyes flashed with a frightening light, and he spoke for the first time, "That's impossible!"
"Even the Rebellious Saint Master, once hailed as a millennium genius and achieved Overlord Level overnight, only reached Apostle Level within the year of his awakening!"
The voice, though devoid of anger, carried immense pressure.
It was as if the sky was crashing down.
In an instant, Nie Bao and his friends felt a shiver in their hearts, and their lips felt unbearably heavy. They sensed that even a little exaggeration in their next words could lead to ruin!
Clearly.
The Celestial South Saint Master no longer took these words as a joke.
At first, he didn't care much; some boasting was acceptable, and he was happy to see people aiming for the Supreme Saint Master. But now, with such certainty, it began to insult their understanding.
Although Nie Bao and the others didn't know this person's identity, the oppressive aura emanating from him made it clear that he was someone they couldn't possibly reach.
However, he did not retreat because everything he said was true.
"What benefit do I get from deceiving you about a dead person? Everything about Lord Su Qi can be traced in the Ninth District; believe it or not."
Now.
Su Qi genuinely wanted to kill.
He never imagined that Nie Bao would sell him out so thoroughly.
Originally, he planned to distribute a portion of the refined Soul Crystal Stones among everyone after transporting this batch back to the Ninth District. After all, everyone contributed significantly. But now... it was over!
Meanwhile.
The expressions on the faces of Celestial South Saint Master and the others also began to grow serious.
Indeed, as the other party said, a person's life trajectory is difficult to fake. After all, as long as he doesn't disengage from society, he will intersect with different people in various ways.
"Is that Su Qi really dead?" Celestial South Saint Master turned his head slightly to inquire of Wang Ming.
Wang Ming's heart trembled, immediately realizing the Saint Master was getting serious.
Though he thought these people were somewhat reckless in speech, it shouldn't warrant this response.
However, under the pressure of the Celestial South Saint Master's authority, Wang Ming truthfully said, "Yes, in the aftermath of the final showdown between the God and the Otherworldly Heavenly Dao, Su Qi... not a trace of flesh or blood was left. We carefully searched several times, but couldn't find even a hint of his presence."
Celestial South Saint Master nodded, "So, life without a person, death without a body."
"For you, concluding he is dead is understandable, but in this world where the Extraordinary is revealed, do not overly trust your own power; there are many things beyond your understanding."
"For instance, confirming a person's life or death is easier than you think; a Transcendent's death clouds their true name, and I only need to glimpse the true name in the Spiritual Great World."
Hearing this.
Wang Ming immediately adopted a learning posture.
Meanwhile, inside Nie Bao and the others, waves of shock rolled.
This was simply unheard of!
To think someone could touch the true name engraved in another's Spiritual Great World, it was truly terrifying.
It's important to know.
The Spiritual Great World is boundless, and the position where one's true name is engraved is typically only confirmable by the person through the continuation of their own spiritual power.
After all.
If one could easily confirm another's true name position, it would mean they could invade the other's spiritual will at any moment.
This... could it be a Heavenly Secret Level expert!
Seeming to sense Nie Bao and the others' shock, Wang Ming offered a simple introduction, "This is our Celestial South Saint Master. You may not know much, but during the interception of the Otherworldly Heavenly Dao's power, the Saint Master was the one primarily responsible."
As the words fell.
The pupils of Nie Bao and the others shrank instantly, and their throats became incredibly dry!
The Saint Master himself!
A Supreme Saint Master appeared right before them.
And they were boasting in front of a Supreme Saint Master!
At this moment.
They nearly cracked apart.
Of course.
Besides them, there was another who felt like they might shatter, that was Su Qi.
He never imagined things would escalate to this point so suddenly.
A Saint Master was actually going to take action to confirm his life and death!
Even though he didn't care much about it, he intended to reappear before everyone as Su Qi in the future. But now he worried that if Celestial South Saint Master found his true name and confirmed his position through the spiritual connection...
Damn it, if Celestial South Saint Master realized he was now parasitizing a Divine Corpse, masquerading as a God to fool him for so long...
Wouldn't he be enraged and give him a slap?
In short, Su Qi was panic-stricken now. For a split second, he even wanted to sever the spiritual connection with his true name.
But that wasn't something he could do easily.
All he could do was massively retract his spiritual will; as for the true name engraved in the Spiritual Great World, let it be.
Only to see.
Celestial South Saint Master slightly closed his eyes.
Everyone felt as if everything around them had fallen into a state of suspension.
Time seemed to have halted.
In the high sky, an ethereal world's outline emerged, flickering with countless shining points.
From most people's perspective, it appeared both real and unreal, though right before their eyes, it gave the illusion of being unattainable and nonexistent in reality.
Simultaneously.
Celestial South Saint Master's spiritual will continued to elevate, silently chanting Su Qi's name.
The entire Spiritual Great World seemed to be under an irresistible command, rapidly revolving and transforming, eventually coming to a slow halt.
Celestial South Saint Master, glanced above.
"This is the location, then I'll have a good look at this Su Qi's true name."
