Chapter 521: Only at the Foundation Building Realm

"What a pity."

Many found Fang Chen pulling Meng Tianshu out of his shattered state of mind rather regretful.

The two elders at the Dao Union Realm exchanged looks, each seeing a hint of surprise in the other's eyes. "The Five Elements Control Technique.... This boy's methods have a sense of Returning to the Origin, but this shouldn't appear on someone at the Golden Core Realm."

"Returning to the Origin" meant that one was reaching the pinnacle, stripping away the fanciness and returning to the original essence, restoring everything to its initial state!

At that level, even a blade of grass or a branch could become an immortal sword as long as one willed!

However, how could a mere junior, who had yet to reach the pinnacle, achieve Returning to the Origin?

"Fellow Cultivator Chen, can you discern his lineage?"

"He only used the Five Elements Controlling Technique... how can I discern his lineage? Let's watch a bit longer."

The two elders' gazes fell back on Fang Chen.

At this moment, the group of young cultivators turned grim as they looked at Fang Chen.

They had been previously skeptical about the three Immortal Seedlings dying by Fang Chen's hand. However, Fang Chen had effortlessly neutralized Meng Tianshu's blade. Not only was this enough to prove that he had the potential to be an Immortal Seedling, but it even showed that his methods far exceeded theirs!

Because each Immortal Seedling was inherently proud and arrogant, they had been unwilling to admit this. However, the facts laid before them forced even the proudest to begin seriously reassessing Fang Chen.

Zhao Kaihe's eyes flickered. "Can I block that move if I used the Five Elements Controlling Technique too...?"

After a thoughtful pause, he reached a conclusion. If he were to use the Five Elements Control Technique, he probably wouldn't be able to completely block Meng Tianshu's strike!

Zhao Kaihe frowned. "Is he really at the Golden Core Realm?"

Suddenly, a thought arose in his mind, and he immediately said loudly, "Everyone, this person has a treasure to conceal his aura. His cultivation level has never been confirmed to be at the Golden Core Realm. Perhaps he is a Nascent Soul or even an Enlightenment Realm cultivator!"

Everyone was momentarily stunned, and they quickly realized that this was true. Having their eyes opened to this possibility, the Immortal Seedlings around instinctively took a few steps back.

If their opponent was at the Nascent Soul Realm, or even at the Enlightenment Realm, what chance did they have?

"Wasn't there an agreement? If anyone above the Golden Core Realm intervenes, it would break the rules."

One Immortal Seedling frowned and said, "If he really is upove the Golden Core Realm, we wouldn’t need to do anything... The elders will take care of it."

Murmurs arose, with many beginning to question Fang Chen's cultivation level.

On the cloud platform, the representative from the Immortal Giant Sect looked toward Gai Hong and asked, "Has your Heavenly King Zhen Manor confirmed this person's cultivation level?"

"It seems not..." Gai Hong replied thoughtfully.

The representative from the Immortal Giant Sect immediately flew into a rage, leaping and landing with a loud crash in front of the Immortal Seedlings

When everyone saw his frame, they knew he was from the Immortal Giant Sect.

The Immortal Giant Sect's representative pointed at Fang Chen's nose, his eyes icy. "Are you not at the Golden Core Realm?"

"When did I ever say I was at the Golden Core Realm?" Fang Chen replied with a faint smile.

"If you're not at the Golden Core Realm, how dare you intervene in this matter and kill an Immortal Seedling from the Immortal Giant Sect? Today, I will use you as a sacrifice to the Heavens!"

Roaring the loudly, Immortal Giant Sect's representative's aura surged wildly. Just as he was about to make a move, a figure appeared in front of him, stopping his hand.

The Immortal Giant Sect's representative was shocked. "Senior Su?"

The newcomer was Su Mo, a Dao Union Realm cultivator stationed at the Immortal Dynasty Manor.

In this era, where cultivators at the Tribulation and Ascension Realms were scarce, Dao Union Realm cultivators were the strongest people that ordinary cultivators could encounter.

Moreover, hailing from the Desolate Academy, Su Mo's background was extraordinary. Just his identity alone earned him a certain degree of respect from the heavenly talents born in the major celestial courts.

"Don't be hasty. If he is truly above the Golden Core Realm, it won't be too late for you to act then," reminded Su Mo, chuckling.

After that, he looked at Fang Chen and said, "Young friend, you said you're not at the Golden Core Realm? Could you dispel your aura-concealing treasure and let us see your cultivation level? If you are above the Golden Core Realm, it would break the rules, and I'm afraid many cultivators in the Middle Three Realms will be ready to take your life."

Everyone's eyes fell on Fang Chen, waiting for him to dispel his aura-concealing treasure.

Hearing that, Fang Chen was hit with a realization. Even this senior can't see through my cultivation level? It seems my soul power is stronger than I thought.

The next moment, he retracted his soul power, and his aura slowly began to seep out.

Then, the smile on Su Mo's face slowly turned rigid with astonishment.

Similarly, the Immortal Seedlings were dumbfounded.

The surrounding cultivators from various forces rubbed their eyes in disbelief.

On the cloud platform, someone looked at Gai Hong with incredulity. "Did I sense that correctly?"

"You should've sensed it correctly..." Gai Hong muttered. He looked at Gai Yunuo and asked, "Second Sister, did I sense that correctly?"

Gai Yunuo frowned, her gaze fixed intently on Fang Chen. "It doesn't make sense that he's only at the Foundation Building Realm..."

Zhao Kaihe was flabbergasted. His thoughts began to race. Early-stage Foundation Building Realm early stage?! How is it possible that he is only at the Foundation Building Realm?!

The aura Fang Chen was releasing was unmistakably that of an early-stage Foundation Building Realm cultivator.

This revelation was even more shocking than the deaths of the three Immortal Seedlings!

It was understandable for Immortal Seedlings to fight amongst themselves. While they were all Immortal Seedlings, there was still a hierarchy between them. Some people had barely met the standards of Immortal Seedlings, while others were exceptional even among Immortal Seedlings.

But how could anyone be an Immortal Seedling with a cultivation at the Foundation Building Realm?!

"Could he be the cherished disciple of some First Rate Sect Leader?" Someone stammered.

"Hiss..."

Whether they were in the Lower Four Realms, the Middle Three Realms, or even the Upper Three Realms, all the cultivators gasped when they heard this possibility.

A First Rate Sect Leader!

Even an existence like Heavenly King Zhen wouldn't amount to much in front of a First Rate Sect Leader!

In this era's world, the Central Continent hadn't been annexed by Northern Dipper and Celestial Heaven precisely because of those First Rate Sect Leaders supporting it.

These were the strongest existences no matter which era they were placed in!

The Immortal Giant Sect's representative was slow to react. Seeing that Fang Chen was only at the early stage of the Foundation Building Realm, he gasped instinctively. "You're only at the Foundation Building Realm?"

Fang Chen smiled and nodded. "Yes, that’s right. I am only at the Foundation Building Realm."

A mere Foundation Building Realm...

The expressions of the Immortal Seedlings varied. If he was merely a Foundation Building Realm disciple, then what were they? Mere Golden Core Realm cultivators? Mere Immortal Seedlings?

They had assumed that he was similar to them, having reached the grand completion stage of the Golden Core Realm! Even if they couldn't defeat him, the gap between them shouldn't be too vast.

Who would have thought that he would be an early-stage Foundation Building Realm cultivator?!

Someone like that had actually slain three Immortal Seedlings and defeated the Seven Profound Sect's Meng Tianshu.

The strength he displayed was terrifying beyond their imagination. Why would a Foundation Building Realm cultivator have such abilities?

If he were at the peak of the Golden Core Realm, wouldn't even Nascent Soul Realm cultivators be like mere chickens and dogs before him?

The Immortal Giant Sect's representative finally reacted, his expression darkening. "How could you kill Immortal Seedlings if you're merely at the Foundation Building Realm?"

"Who said that a Foundation Building Realm cultivator can't kill Immortal Seedlings?" Fang Chen asked with a smile.

The Immortal Giant Sect's representative was left speechless.

Everyone had peculiar expressions. His words made sense, and the logic was sound, yet something felt off.

Grappling with the incongruity, the crowd fell silent. Fang Chen, who could exhibit such overwhelming strength at the Foundation Building Realm, threw their understanding of cultivation and strength into disarray.

The Immortal Seedlings, who had always prided themselves on their exceptional talents and achievements, now found themselves questioning the very foundations of their beliefs.
