Journey to the West: Signing in for 500 Years-Chapter 612 - 606 The Saint is Stunned [Asking for subscription and monthly tickets]_1

Sha Chen immediately counterattacked.

With three heads and six arms, he embodied the Law of Heaven and Earth.

He used various Divine Powers and Magical Tools without holding anything back, deploying them right away.

To cross hands with a Saint, if one still conceals and preserves strength, that's being irresponsible toward one's own life.

The Chaos Bell was thrown directly by him, instantly blocking Lord Yuan Shi's heaven-shaking sword strike.

Lord Yuan Shi paused, frowning as he said, "I didn't expect you to have cultivated Donghuang Taiyi's Magical Tool to such an extent. Shouldn't it repel you? Yet it can merge so perfectly with you."

Sha Chen said, "When I obtained this Magical Tool, it had no marks left on it, so I am essentially its first owner. As for the Donghuang Taiyi you mentioned, he already shattered the Chaos Bell during the great prehistoric war between witches and demons."

"Since I am its master, how could it repel me? Merging perfectly with it, refining it flawlessly—isn't that as it should be?"

Lord Yuan Shi nodded. "It seems that you're not just extraordinarily talented; your fortune is also terrifyingly great."

"Such a Magical Tool, shattered in the great war between witches and demons and then reformed, actually chose you as its master."

Sha Chen also laughed heartily. "There are more things beyond your imagination than you can conceive. Look at all these Magical Tools in my hand—which one did I actively seek out myself?"

"They all came to me. Treasures choose those who are fated, and I am their fated one."

Lord Yuan Shi fell silent for a moment.

Although Sha Chen's words were somewhat arrogant and conceited, one had to admit he indeed had the right to say such things. Others might fight to the death for a single Magical Tool and still not acquire it. Yet any Magical Tool Sha Chen casually produced could make others fight tooth and nail for it, and these Magical Tools had all sought him out on their own initiative. This was somewhat difficult for people to accept, but they had to, however unwillingly.

Sometimes, things just don't make sense. It was similar to when his master, the Daoist Master, expounded the Dao back when they were still Quasi-Saints. They were allowed to choose their meditation mats freely, and the three brothers of the Three Pure Ones calmly occupied theirs, undisturbed by others. Although the three brothers were strong, in that era where might made right and the powerful ran rampant, they wouldn't necessarily dare to claim invincibility within the same realm. If others—such as Zhenyuanzi, the Ancestor of the Ming River, the Nine-winged mosquito, and other such figures—had truly wanted to contend with them and fight to the death, the three brothers might not necessarily have been at a disadvantage in one-on-one battles, but a full-blown fight would have allowed others to reap the benefits. Fortunately, these individuals knew their limitations and did not make a move, willingly yielding the mats to them. This became the stepping stone for them to enter the tutelage of the Daoist Ancestor. Without that opportunity, they probably wouldn't have gained the Heavenly Dao's acknowledgment. Figures like the Ancestor of the Ming River had no idea how crucial that seating arrangement was, as it related to the Heavenly Dao's subsequent selections. If they had known, they would definitely have fought desperately for a position.

This was the nature of fortune, and being acknowledged by the Heavenly Dao is the greatest fortune under heaven. Lord Yuan Shi himself was a recipient of this greatest fortune, so naturally, he wouldn't find it unacceptable that Sha Chen had received the recognition of so many Magical Tools.

However, Sha Chen's strength was somewhat beyond his expectations—so powerful it was unimaginable. Therefore, Lord Yuan Shi had to take Sha Chen seriously; otherwise, he might very well suffer an unexpected defeat. Though he was a Saint and exceedingly powerful, having never been defeated, he never dared to underestimate anyone with strength, particularly since Sha Chen gave him an unfathomable feeling.

After the battle continued for a while, Lord Yuan Shi furrowed his brows. "It's surprising. Not only has your mana cultivation reached an extremely profound realm of Quasi-Sage Peak, with your mana as vast as an abyss or sea, but your physical body has also reached such a terrifying extent."

"With your current physical body, probably only Di Jiang, the chief of the twelve Ancestral Witches of old, could contend with you. The others are hardly worth mentioning."

Sha Chen said, "You're wrong. Even if Di Jiang were here, his physical body wouldn't surpass mine."

This time, he didn't hide anything, nor did he have any intention of being modest; moreover, what he stated was the truth.

He had cultivated his Dao of Strength and Dao of Space to the peak of Mahayana, nearly reaching Great Perfection. As for other elements such as fire, ice, red water, thunder, sandstorms, and gales, all had been cultivated to the Great Perfection Realm.

His very being was already akin to a combined entity of more than half the Ancestral Witches. Though Di Jiang was powerful, he wouldn't dare claim that his physical body could withstand the fusion of several other Ancestral Witches.

Moreover, Sha Chen possessed a powerful Dao of Strength that the Twelve Ancestral Witches lacked, also cultivated to the peak of the Mahayana Realm, elevating his physical body to unprecedented heights.

And that's not all.

In Sha Chen's body flowed the Zulong lineage and Pangu's Heart Blood; his physical body had long since been refined to the Primeval Chaos Saint Body Great Perfection Realm.

He had been in this realm for over a hundred years; his physical body had already transcended.

If he hadn't yet fathomed the knack for his physical body's Detachment from the Mixed Element Saint Body, he estimated his physical body would be comparable to a Saint's.

Such an immensely strong physical body—how could it possibly be matched by Di Jiang, a mere spatial law Ancestral Witch?

Furthermore, among the Twelve Ancestral Witches, it wasn't Di Jiang who specialized in the physical body, but Qiang Liang, the Ancestral Witch of Lightning.

His physical body was truly the mightiest among the Twelve Ancestral Witches.

As for Di Jiang, he fused space into his physical body; his defense and strength were lacking, but his elusiveness was second to none in the world.

Sha Chen's physical body, however, far surpassed Qiang Liang in both defense and strength, and its elusiveness was not inferior to Di Jiang's.

Such a flawless physical body—how could it be comparable to the Di Jiang Lord Yuan Shi mentioned?

At first, Lord Yuan Shi thought Sha Chen was boasting, but as the fight progressed, he finally confirmed that Sha Chen's claims were factual. This made his expression turn increasingly grave. Despite fighting with the power of a Saint, he couldn't secure an overwhelming victory over Sha Chen.

It was important to note that Siti and Yao Yue had not yet intervened to help. Furthermore, although he was only using one hand against Sha Chen, this alone was enough to reveal Sha Chen's terrifying strength.

Lord Yuan Shi said with a solemn expression, "No wonder you dared to come out and face me. And no wonder you were able to repel Zhunti."

"With your current strength, under all the heavens, aside from Saints, I suspect no one can confront you head-on."

Siti and Yao Yue had not expected Sha Chen's strength to be so formidable, nor that he would receive such praise and recognition from Lord Yuan Shi.

This gave them some confidence; they exchanged glances, looking for an opportune moment to act.

Although Lord Yuan Shi believed he had seen through Sha Chen's actual capabilities, the more they fought, the more alarmed he became. Sha Chen's physical body was unfathomably deep, seemingly beyond the Quasi-Saint Realm, yet he was certain it hadn't reached the Heavenly Dao level. It lay somewhere in between. How could someone in this world possess such a terrifying physical body!?
