Chapter 2605: Chapter 2625: Shenkong Sect, Saint of Thieves?

Lin Chen’s interest was immediately piqued, "Cave Master, tell me about it."

Zhen Liuxue stared at Lin Chen, "You seem quite interested?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "That’s a Quasi-Saint we’re talking about, a powerful being capable of crushing a Superior Prime Daluo Immortal, of course I’m interested."

After a pause, Lin Chen added with glowing eyes, "Today’s battle is the biggest scene with participants that I have ever witnessed since I started cultivating. It got my heart racing. Ah, Cave Master, you returning to your youth, you really do look lovely..."

Zhen Liuxue glared at Lin Chen, "Stop your sweet talk. As an old lady, I only regained my youthful appearance because I forced myself to the Quasi-Saint realm, and I can maintain it for only one day at most. It’s like the moon’s reflection in a well or a flower’s shadow in the water."

Lin Chen blinked, "Cave Master, does that mean if you could maintain the Quasi-Saint realm for a long time, then you could stay forever young?"

"Yes."

Zhen Liuxue agreed, then immediately explained, "I took shortcuts when I promoted to Quasi-Saint, so it wasn’t a perfect promotion. Because of this, I cannot maintain the Quasi-Saint realm for long. Each time I return to the Quasi-Saint realm to battle, it places a great burden on my body. Doing it a few more times might kill me without anyone else needing to do anything."

Lin Chen instinctively asked, "Then is there a way to fix this?"

Zhen Liuxue’s gaze grew distant for a moment, "There is, but it’s impossible."

Lin Chen persisted, "Cave Master, could you elaborate?"

Zhen Liuxue looked at Lin Chen with a half-smile, "You think you can manage something even I can’t?"

Lin Chen responded with a carefree laugh, "Every tool has its strengths, and on the Immortal Path, it all comes down to opportunity. What if?"

Zhen Liuxue, smiling, looked into Lin Chen’s eyes, "Do you really intend to help me fix my flaws and stabilize my Quasi-Saint Realm?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Since even the Cave Master finds it difficult, speaking of it can do no harm. Think of it as broadening our horizons."

Zhen Liuxue glared at Lin Chen, fell silent for a few seconds, but ultimately said, "Rumor has it that in the world exists a demon dragon called Candle, whose left eye controls time, and right eye controls space, mighty and invincible, appearing and disappearing without a trace. If one could find the Candle Dragon and hunt its left eye, refining it, not only could I fix all the flaws in my realm, but my time divine ability could reach a new level."

A Candle Dragon?

Lin Chen widened his eyes, curiously asking, "Does it belong to the Dragon Clan?"

Zhen Liuxue replied, "It chiefly resembles a dragon, but is not entirely so; rare in the world. Plus, it can manipulate time and space, and is so powerful that even if encountered, it would be hard to hunt down, which is why I said knowing the way is of no use."

Lin Chen nodded silently, indeed, not only was it supremely powerful, but with the ability to control time and space supernatural powers, who could possibly kill such a being?

Furthermore, it wasn’t just incredibly powerful; it was also extremely rare. You couldn’t find it even if you wanted to.

Lin Chen asked, "Does it exist in the Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Domain?"

Zhen Liuxue shook her head, "It was rumored to have appeared in the Crimson Immortal Domain once. At that time, a Quasi-Saint entertained the thought of hunting it down. After an intense battle, the injured Candle Dragon escaped with no known destination, and the Quasi-Saint who initiated the attack also suffered heavy injuries, ending up with nothing..."

The Crimson Immortal Domain?

Isn’t that the Immortal Domain where the Shepherd Heavenly Monarch resides?

The junction between the Immortal Realm and the Demon World?

Shang Wenyin sighed softly, "If even a Quasi-Saint can’t capture the Candle Dragon, who in the world can?"

Yue Chengtian said, "The Immortal Emperor definitely can!"

Lin Chen gave a bitter smile, "Of course the Immortal Emperor can, but why would the Immortal Emperor bother to capture the Candle Dragon for us? Don’t forget, the Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Domain is one of the eight great Immortal Domains of the Immortal Realm, and the Myriad Immortals Hall Master is a subordinate the Immortal Emperor truly trusts. We’re opposing the Myriad Immortal Hall, if he doesn’t kill us with a single slap, that would already be a great mercy, let alone expect him to help us capture the Candle Dragon?"

Yue Chengtian scratched his head, "Right, I somehow forgot that."

Zhen Liuxue observed the three people discussing, with a trace of something intriguing in her gaze.

Do they truly hope that she can succeed in her revenge, to kill the Myriad Immortals Hall Master?

These little guys really have guts. Even a Superior Prime Daluo Immortal would tremble with fear at the thought of opposing the Myriad Immortal Hall and wanting to kill the Myriad Immortals Hall Master, yet these three are fearless, with Yue Chengtian even eagerly joining in, refusing to leave.

"Regarding the Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Domain, as far as I know, the East Emperor Lingxiao Sect has one, the Shenkong Sect has one, the Southern Desolate Barbarian King is one, and the Northern Sea is said to have one mysterious Fisher, but this person is a nomad with elusive traces, no one can find him..."

"Hold on."

Lin Chen’s eyes widened as he asked, "The Shenkong Sect, are you talking about the one famous throughout the world for its Stealing Technique?"

Zhen Liuxue nodded, "Yes, do you know of it?"

Lin Chen exclaimed in shock, "When I was a new arrival, I encountered a disciple from the Shenkong Sect, and we tackled a Secret Realm together, we worked well together, and got on quite well. As far as I know, the Shenkong Sect’s Stealing Technique is unmatched, but it didn’t seem like they were that strong. So how come they suddenly have a Quasi-Saint?"

Zhen Liuxue said calmly, "He didn’t tell you, probably because the Saint of Thieves has been missing for thousands of years."

Uh... Missing?

Thousands of years?

You can’t help but marvel at the long lifespans of these immortals; casually tossing around thousands of years as if they were merely a year or a half.

Lin Chen’s eyes lit up, "Saint of Thieves, what an awesome name!"

Zhen Liuxue responded, "The Saint of Thieves is also a master of Space Supernatural Powers, his stealing ability is probably unmatched in the entire Immortal Realm, indisputably first, hence the title ’Saint of Thieves’."

"The strength of the Saint of Thieves is relatively low among Quasi-Saints, but due to his unpredictable Stealing Technique, he is well-known throughout the Immortal Realm, making him a very special case."

Lin Chen asked curiously, "Isn’t Space Supernatural Power supposed to be really powerful? Why is the Saint of Thieves considered weaker?"

Zhen Liuxue smiled, "Space Supernatural Powers are diverse, not all the same, serving different purposes. His Divine Power, when used for stealing, is truly astonishing, but when it comes to battle... it’s much less impressive..."

Lin Chen realized, "I see, but being the best in the whole Immortal Realm is still super impressive."

"Of course, it is!"

Speaking of the Saint of Thieves, Zhen Liuxue couldn’t help but smile: "If you provoke others, at worst you’ll fight; but if you provoke the Saint of Thieves, he could rob you of all your possessions, even stealing away your Life-bound Magical Treasures. Who would want to provoke such a person?"

Lin Chen nodded in agreement, "No wonder, this Saint of Thieves is truly exceptional... As for the other few, the Fisher, the Barbarian King might not necessarily give that face. If it is indeed another Quasi-Saint who makes a move, it’s likely to be from the Lingxiao Sect, after all, they are one of the Twelve Immortal Sects."

Zhen Liuxue shook her head, "That’s hard to say. The ones I mentioned are known to everyone, but there might be other hidden Quasi-Saints unknown to the public. After all, the Immortal Domain is vast, and not all Quasi-Saints like fame..."
