Chapter 314: Chapter 238: Semi-Saint

“The Soul Token has shattered!”

In the Yuhua Sacred Land, an elder hurriedly approached the Yuhua Saint Master and said.

Upon hearing this, the latter’s brow furrowed slightly, “What Soul Token has shattered?”

“The Sword Peak Master’s Soul Token has shattered!”

The elder steadied his thoughts before continuing.

Upon this statement,

the countenance of Yuhua Saint Master changed instantly.

“Qu Peak Master is dead?”

“Indeed—”

The elder was about to say something more but discovered that the Yuhua Saint Master had already vanished from sight.

Within the Soul Hall of Sword Peak,

Yuhua Saint Master appeared here.

He looked up at the shattered Soul Token above, his expression as dark as still waters.

“Qu Huadao has actually died!”

“Who exactly was it that could slay Qu Huadao? Could it be that the Nine States truly harbors some misfortune—”

Although Yuhua Saint Master had intended to send Qu Huadao to scout the Nine States, he had never expected the other to fall there.

After all,

this Sword Peak Master was already a top-notch powerhouse who had stepped into the Tao Palace Realm Ninth Layer.

In terms of cultivation,

he was only one level lower than himself.

A being of such caliber? was considered among the finest even across the entire Eastern Domain, yet now had fallen in the Nine States, naturally, Yuhua Saint Master was startled.

Immediately,

Yuhua Saint Master summoned many elders of the Holy Land, disclosed the news of Qu Huadao’s demise, and then dispatched some cultivators to the Nine States to investigate.

Even with Qu Huadao fallen, useful information had to be obtained.

However,

in less than five days,

news regarding the Nine States had completely spread.

“Shattered the Flame Sun Mirror!”

“Slaughtered the Flame Sun Saint!”

“The Nine States have been barren for ages, when did such a powerful being emerge…”

Yuhua Saint Master, looking at the intelligence in his hands, also showed a trace of horror.

Even if Yuhua Saint Master himself made a move, he would not be certain of shattering a Holy Weapon or vanquishing the Divine Thought of a Saint.

If it was simply suppressing a Divine Thought of a Saint, that would be another matter.

But,

the Divine Thought of this Saint wielded a Holy Weapon in hand, tantamount to a true living Saint. Even with his confidence, Yuhua Saint Master did not possess the strength to contend against such an existence.

Upon receiving this message, Yuhua Saint Master’s first reaction was that it must be false.

But as the news spread, the Shangguan Family was attacked immediately, with many powerful beings falling. The grand Saint Family was showing signs of decline, which was sufficient to illustrate everything.

The Nine States!

Now, there exists a living Saint!

“Who would have thought that old coot Qu Huadao would perish in the Nine States,” according to the message, “if not a true Saint, then that being from the Nine States is not far off.

Now that a Peak Master from my Yuhua Sacred Land has fallen, if we don’t make a stand, I fear others will look down upon Yuhua Sacred Land!”

The speaker was a robust-looking middle-aged cultivator with a booming voice, which made many furrow their brows, although no objections were voiced.

Simply because the speaker was Nan Kuang, the current Blade Peak Master of Yuhua Sacred Land, a powerful being in the Taoist Palace Realm Eighth Layer.

Though in terms of realm, Nan Kuang was one level below Qu Huadao, when it came to true combat power, he might not be much weaker than the fallen Sword Peak Master.

At this time,

Artifact Peak Master Red Sun slowly said, “Peak Master Nan, your words are not quite right. The reputation of Yuhua Sacred Land is important, indeed, but facing an existence comparable to a Saint, what price must Yuhua Sacred Land pay to contend?”

“To speak frankly, who amongst us could bear a Holy Weapon to go forth? I fear they would meet the same fate as the Shangguan Family. If we were to mobilize a Great Saint Weapon, I believe subduing this person would not be troublesome.”

“But—”

“To mobilize a Great Saint Weapon, without a Saint to wield it, a blood sacrifice is inevitable. A price so steep, merely to slay one being, does not bode well for the long-term interests of Yuhua Sacred Land.”

In Red Sun’s view, paying such a high price for a moment’s breath was not worth it.

With these words,

the other Peak Masters nodded slightly in agreement.

“As Master Red Sun has said, Qu Peak Master has perished, so be it. If the aggressor was a Taoist Palace Realm being, or even a Semi-Saint, Yuhua Sacred Land would not let them off easily.

But for an existence on par with a Saint, why should Yuhua Sacred Land be the one to stick its neck out?

To my knowledge, the cultivators who have fallen by this being’s hand are no fewer than a hundred thousand, and many Great Families of the Holy Lands have lost their prodigies.

Hence, I believe it’s better for us to wait and see, to observe how the other forces react!”

One after another, the Peak Masters expressed their viewpoints. Apart from Nan Kuang, the others did not wish to clash with the Divine Martial Dynasty at this time.

The reason was simple.

The strength of the Divine Martial Dynasty was too formidable, so formidable that they did not want to face it head-on.

A Saint and a Semi-Saint are only a word apart, but the difference between them is like heaven and earth.

If it were a Semi-Saint,

Yuhua Sacred Land would certainly not let it go.

But if it’s a Saint, that’s another matter altogether.

When everyone had spoken, Yuhua Saint Master said indifferently, “Since all Peak Masters believe that it’s not suitable for the Sacred Land to intervene for now, let’s wait and see.

It is now the final phase of the End of Dharma Era; it has been eight thousand five hundred years since the end of the last great war. In another fifteen hundred years, a great epoch shall descend once more.

At this crucial time, if Yuhua Sacred Land were to clash with a Saint, the hassle would be significant!”

With these words,

It was clear what stance Yuhua Sacred Land had taken.

Nan Kuang’s brow was tightly knitted, “What if the Divine Martial Dynasty refuses to let the matter rest, what shall we do then?”

“Then we fight!”

Yuhua Saint Master sneered.

“Although the Sacred Land does not seek trouble, it is certainly not afraid of it. If the Divine Martial Dynasty dares to come forth, then we will activate the Great Saint Weapon and directly annihilate them!”
