Chapter 1076: 774 days of great opportunity

Xing Tian couldn’t grasp the true meaning in Jiang Chen’s words, which was actually quite normal, because in Xing Tian’s heart, even though he recognized Jiang Chen’s strength, he still regarded him as a junior.

If it were the Sanqing or the Two Saints from the West who came today, as soon as they spoke, Xing Tian would immediately understand the crux of the matter.

But it was Jiang Chen, just a junior, after all. Xing Tian simply didn’t believe from the bottom of his heart that he could solve his problem; thus, he didn’t give much thought to his words and failed to understand them for the moment, which was also normal.

"Senior, I have a method to dissolve Sha Qi!"

Taking a deep breath and reminding himself not to get angry, Jiang Chen said solemnly.

"What? You have a method to dissolve Sha Qi?"

"How is that possible? Given the situation, even Mother Earth can only suppress it, unable to dissolve it."

"You, a mere junior, what skill do you possess that even Mother Earth cannot do?"

Upon hearing Jiang Chen’s words, Xing Tian’s first reaction was disbelief, and then he felt that Jiang Chen was bluffing. How could he dare to say he could solve a problem even Mother Earth could not?

It wasn’t that Xing Tian didn’t want to believe Jiang Chen; it was really his strength and age that made it hard to believe.

For someone like Xing Tian, a Great Divine Transcendent, judging age is naturally different from ordinary people; not by bone age and breath but directly by one’s True Spirit.

The True Spirit is the foundation of all spirits. Only after the True Spirit is born, can a life be called a living being. It can be said that the True Spirit is the beginning of life, recording everything about a living being, from birth to death, and then to reincarnation.

As long as the True Spirit doesn’t perish, even if it reincarnates ten thousand times, all its experiences will be recorded on the True Spirit.

Therefore, from the aura of the True Spirit, one can sense the true age of a living being. This is the most accurate age, not the age from birth to death, but all the years experienced since the inception of the True Spirit.

Jiang Chen’s divine abilities were mysterious, and his Innate True Spirit was hidden within Chaos. Even Xing Tian could not sense the specifics, but he could vaguely sense that Jiang Chen’s age would not exceed ten thousand years.

An Innate Dao Sovereign not yet ten thousand years old, placed among other races, would indeed be astonishing to the extreme, but among the Human Race, it was just so-so. Xing Tian, having seen many, was not too surprised by it.

Looking at those Innate Dao Sovereigns who came from the ranks of Ancient Martial Artists, which one hasn’t achieved Innate Dao Sovereign status before the ten thousand-year mark?

Xing Tian was born in the Ancient Era and witnessed the birth and decline of Ancient Martial Arts. The shock had worn off in the Ancient Era, and now, seeing Jiang Chen, he only lamented the prosperity of the Human Race; beyond that, he wasn’t too surprised.

Of course, if Xing Tian knew that Jiang Chen’s real age was not even a thousand years old, he would have been shocked. It’s just a pity that he didn’t know.

So, a young man not even ten thousand years old suddenly came to tell him that he could solve a problem even Saints could not.

Do you say, would Xing Tian believe him?

Of course, he wouldn’t believe him!

No normal person would!

...

"Senior, please rest assured, with the reputation of the Human Race as my guarantee, I absolutely have a solution for the Sha Qi," Jiang Chen said.

With a smooth tongue comes unreliable work. Seeing Xing Tian’s reaction, Jiang Chen guessed his thoughts, feeling that his youth made him seem unreliable. Hence, to make Xing Tian believe him, Jiang Chen simply staked the reputation of the Human Race as a guarantee.

"Such great confidence?"

Hearing Jiang Chen staking the reputation of the Human Race as a guarantee, Xing Tian, even if he didn’t want to believe, had to believe it.

Jiang Chen was the Human King, and nobody else qualified to represent the Human Race, but he did. Therefore, using the reputation of the Human Race as a guarantee was by no means a joke.

The reputation of a race is supremely important. If one were to lie, they would certainly be met with Heaven and Earth’s backlash, and a significant dip in Fate would be the least of it.

Moreover, if word got out that one made light of the Human Race’s reputation, even if Jiang Chen was the Human King, his end would not be good; it would be difficult even to wish for death.

"Hiss~~"

"Do you really have a way?"

Xing Tian was shocked enough to take a sharp breath.

Since he used the reputation of the Human Race as a guarantee, what he said must be true. That’s why Xing Tian was shocked; how could he?

He, an Innate Dao Sovereign, an existence as insignificant as an ant, how could he have what it takes to solve a problem even Mother Earth couldn’t?

"Senior, how could I possibly be joking about such a matter?" Jiang Chen replied with a grave face.

Indeed, he had a method to resolve the issue of the Sha Qi; he wasn’t joking. Because for others, these Sha Qi might be trouble, but for the Human Race, it was an opportunity, an immense one.

What did the precious relics left by the First Emperor, the twelve Golden Men, need for their advancement? They needed to devour Sha Qi!

The Sha Qi of Changyang Mountain is the accumulation of an entire Quantitative Calamity’s worth of Sha Qi. Its vast quantity could nurture twelve experts of the Quasi-Saint Great Perfection level.

Jiang Chen had previously been worrying about where to find so much Sha Qi for the twelve Golden Men to devour, but now, all his problems were solved.

As long as he could devour the Sha Qi of this place, the twelve Golden Men would immediately reach full fruition. Even without the blessings of a Chaos Demigod, and not as powerful as the twelve Fierce Beasts of this place, it wouldn’t be difficult to advance the twelve Golden Men to the late stages of Quasi-Saint after devouring this place’s Sha Qi.

Twelve late-stage Quasi-Saint experts, if they formed the God-killing Array of the twelve Dutian, their strength might not be able to counter a Daluo Jinxian of the Primordial, but it wouldn’t be far off.

With my Human Race in possession of such a treasure, why worry about the great prosperity of the Human Race?
