Chapter 239
C239 – The Strongest Man in the World
“Half God.”
After pondering for a moment, Loong Chen disclosed the level he had observed within the system.
Initially assuming the Flaming Eagle Owl shared his perplexity, Loong Chen was surprised to see its eyes widen upon hearing his revelation.
“Half God? Boss, am I mistaken? Have you truly attained the Half-god Stage?”
“You’re familiar with the Half-god Stage?”
A gleam of curiosity illuminated Loong Chen’s eyes. Could it be that the Flaming Eagle Owl possessed knowledge of the Half-god Stage?
Upon witnessing Loong Chen’s fervent gaze, an inexplicable chill coursed through the Flaming Eagle Owl.
Despite this, it opted to divulge the truth.
“Honestly, my knowledge is limited. I merely overheard the term from Divine Phoenix while traversing the Divine Phoenix Ruins. It appears Divine Phoenix had reached the Half-god Stage at that time.”
Swallowing nervously, the Flaming Eagle Owl spoke.
Lord Divine Phoenix, an ancient divine entity existing for eons. The notion of Loong Chen achieving a similar stature was simply inconceivable.
It defied belief.
How old was Loong Chen? Even if he had commenced cultivation in utero, he would have only had a decade or so to refine his skills.
In reality, he had already attained the Mirror of Demigod. His aptitude bordered on the terrifying.
Were it aware that Loong Chen had cultivated for a mere one or two years, it might well faint from astonishment.
“Was Senior Divine Phoenix at the Half-god Stage?”
Loong Chen was taken aback by this revelation.
He possessed no knowledge of Senior Divine Phoenix’s true might. Yet, as an ancient divine beast with millions of years of existence, her power was undeniably formidable.
Had his own strength reached such a pinnacle already?
Truth be told, Loong Chen remained uncertain of his current capabilities.
His cultivation progress had been exceedingly rapid. Moreover, encountering an evenly matched opponent was a rare occurrence, leaving him unaware of his true prowess.
However, if he stood on par with Senior Divine Phoenix, then surely his strength was considerable.
“So, your understanding of this Half-god Stage is merely hearsay, lacking specifics, correct?”
Loong Chen inquired with a tinge of disappointment, hoping for some insight.
Yet, it appeared his hopes were in vain.
The Flaming Eagle Owl suddenly felt a sense of unease.
Lacking any knowledge regarding the Half-god Stage, it hesitated to speak rashly.
“I’ll take my time to explore it thoroughly.”
Loong Chen shook his head, readjusting his demeanor.
Although uncertain about the rank of a Half God, one thing was certain: he now surpassed the Peak of Emperor Level.
Globally, there were scarcely twenty Peak of Emperor Level adepts.
With unwavering certainty, Loong Chen proclaimed himself the world’s foremost warrior.
“Phoenix, incinerate this Blood Race fortress.”
Loong Chen commanded. Without delay, Phoenix expelled its divine flames.
Centuries-old, the Blood Race stronghold crumbled instantly. The once-dominant Blood Race of the western continent met its demise.
“Let’s depart.”
Witnessing the castle’s collapse firsthand, Loong Chen departed with Phoenix and the Flaming Eagle Owl, ensuring no Blood Race member escaped.
Upon their return to the mountain range near Polish City, Amy had already awakened. Seeing Loong Chen’s safe return, she breathed a sigh of relief.
She embraced Loong Chen tightly, reluctant to release him.
He felt a mixture of helplessness and distress. She had come to regard him as her sole family.
“Let’s move.”
“Boss, where are we headed?”
The Flaming Eagle Owl inquired. Loong Chen directed his gaze eastward.
“Let’s journey back to the eastern continent.”
