After Lady Yuji finished speaking, both she and Shi Qingying fell into temporary silence.
Though they spoke with confidence about Chen Hai’s ability to resist Supre Xuanyuan, only they knew how much confidence they truly had in their hearts.
After all, the strength of a Primordial Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal was deeply ingrained in people’s minds.
At lower realm levels, even slightly talented individuals could battle opponents above their realm, but at the Quasi-Saint and Primordial Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal levels, such tales of battling above one’s realm were unheard of and unseen.
Furthermore, both Lady Yuji and Shi Qingying once belonged to the Demon Palace. In their eyes, Supre Xuanyuan, as a Primordial Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal, was an unrivaled entity.
Now, as Supre Xuanyuan’s consciousness avatar appeared under their very eyes, could Chen Hai, rely at the Quasi-Saint level, truly match him?
Outwardly, what they said mattered little; what truly mattered was what they genuinely thought in their hearts.
So things, if spoken, would rely give others confidence while diminishing their own, so in such a situation, they chose not to speak them at all.
When talking about "what ifs" or unexpected events, their silence had already laid bare their true thoughts.
Perhaps both Shi Qingying and Lady Yuji felt that the chance of Chen Hai losing to Supre Xuanyuan was far greater than his chance of ultimate victory.
If this weren’t the case, they wouldn’t appear the way they did now!
After a period of silence, Lady Yuji and Shi Qingying turned their gaze towards the battlefield several hundred ters away.
The area that was once gray and white, where even space was distorted, had beco much clearer in the ti it took for the two won to exchange those words.
Without needing to sense anything, just with their eyes, both Lady Yuji and Shi Qingying could clearly see the situation within that area.
All around was chaos, and Chen Hai, seemingly exhausted, sat unceremoniously on the ground, panting heavily.
Seeing that Chen Hai was still alive and well, showing no sign of mortal danger, the two won exchanged glances and both breathed sighs of relief.
The only thing puzzling them was that Supre Xuanyuan, who had manifested as a muscular giant after descending as a consciousness, was nowhere to be seen.
"Chen Hai, where is Supre Xuanyuan? Have you already repelled him?"
With a slight shake of their silhouettes, the two won flew over one after the other. Stopping near Chen Hai, Lady Yuji, full of doubt, tentatively asked.
"Supre Xuanyuan?" Grinning at the two won, Chen Hai added, "Wait a mont, let find him."
As he spoke, he took several deep breaths without getting to his feet, rely glancing around.
In just the blink of an eye, he found sothing slightly larger than a bean, looking like a tooth.
Scratching the back of his head, Chen Hai pointed to the object in his hand and said, "I used a bit too much force just now. That Supre Xuanyuan you ntioned should only have this tooth left."
"No, Supre Xuanyuan’s descent was only a consciousness, and the body he was using belonged to Li Huachun, not him."
"Strictly speaking, this tooth doesn’t belong to Supre Xuanyuan; it should be Li Huachun’s!"
Saying this, it seed as if Chen Hai was masking his embarrassnt, and he let out two awkward chuckles.
"Master’s tooth? Has he been completely annihilated?"
"And what about the consciousness that descended from Supre Xuanyuan? Was it driven back to his body by you?"
The two won, montarily stunned and full of shock, pressed on with questions, Shi Qingying eagerly inquiring further.
Regardless of their feelings for Li Huachun’s death, both Shi Qingying and Lady Yuji had anticipated this outco.
After all, Supre Xuanyuan had descended using his body as a vessel, causing his power to surge to such levels. It was evident that Li Huachun had to pay a heavy price.
Perhaps, even if he had not died at Chen Hai’s hands, he would inevitably have perished once Supre Xuanyuan’s consciousness withdrew.
What truly made Shi Qingying and Lady Yuji incredulous was that the battle between Chen Hai and Supre Xuanyuan’s consciousness avatar seed to have taken an unexpected turn.
The questions Shi Qingying raised were to verify if the avatar had indeed been repelled by Chen Hai.
"Ying, asking such a question feels like you’re insulting !"
Seated amidst the ruin for a while, Chen Hai, his breathing much steadier, finally rose to his feet.
Rolling his eyes at Shi Qingying, he continued, "Within this Grotto Heaven, this is my territory, where I can fully utilize my strength."
"Since he took the trouble to descend into my Grotto Heaven with the intention to kill, yet his avatar’s power was inferior to mine."
"In my eyes, that consciousness of Supre Xuanyuan is no different from at on a chopping block."
"Since he willingly offered himself, how could I not adorn his consideration by devouring him clean?"
"rely repelling him and allowing his consciousness to return to its body is impossible."
With a knowing glance at Shi Qingying and Lady Yuji, Chen Hai ceased speaking, as if overly fed, and burped several tis.
In the Black Water Lineage, any disciple accomplished in the Black Water True Technique typically cultivated a sliver of the Devouring Characteristic.
However, their Devouring Characteristic has limitations, allowing only specific types of things to be converted into their cultivation resources.
As the source of the Black Water Lineage, Chen Hai’s devouring ability had long reached astonishing levels, nearly allowing him to consu anything for his use.
Though he rarely used this power, largely invincible among Quasi-Saints, few things incited his desire to devour.
Now, after corroding and assimilating that consciousness of Supre Xuanyuan, all its imprints relating to him had been thoroughly cleansed.
So pure, containing even a trace of the Undying Characteristic from the Primordial Chaos Daluo Realm, it was a veritable tonic for Chen Hai.
Regrettably, this consciousness was difficult to digest; for now, it remained suppressed within Chen Hai’s Divine Court Sea of Consciousness.
To completely devour this consciousness, he would need ti to slowly refine it.
