Chapter 1311: Target, Wu Yuan (1)
Eldritch Progenitors Hou Tu and Di Jiang gazed at each other, their eyes alight with undisguised joy. They had always held high expectations for Wu Yuan, convinced he would one day stand as a pillar of strength for the Eldritch Court, but they thought this development would take trillions of years, perhaps multiple samsara cycles of heaven and earth.
Never could they have foreseen this.
Less than a hundred million years had passed since the opening of the Tenth Chaos Void, yet Wu Yuan had undergone another metamorphosis.
"A monstrous prodigy beyond compare," Eldritch Progenitor Hou Tu mused. "In terms of raw talent, neither I nor Jin Yi can match Wu Yuan. He's like a piece of uncut jade, revealing increasingly brilliant facets as he progresses along his cultivation path."
Eldritch Progenitor Di Jiang nodded, a sincere sigh escaping his lips. "You chose well indeed."
In the past, when Eldritch Progenitor Hou Tu had selected Wu Yuan, he hadn't regarded him so highly. Di Jiang had believed a true monstrous prodigy should naturally rise step by step from numerous living beings instead of being deliberately chosen. Hou Tu had selected many individuals before, but none had proven particularly outstanding. Barely any had even reached True Sainthood.
That was, until Wu Yuan came along, repeatedly shattering Eldritch Progenitor Di Jiang's preconceptions. By now, even he had to admit he was impressed.
"According to Dong Yi, a great secret lies deep within the Tenth Chaos Void, connected to the legendary Great Leader. They all underwent massive transformations there," Eldritch Progenitor Di Jiang said with a slight smile. "To be associated with such an existence is also Wu Yuan's good fortune."
"Indeed," Eldritch Progenitor Hou Tu nodded. "True Saint Luan Hai, True Saint Luo Quan, and the other two are all formidable in their own right, each having created Dao Zenithel ultimate techniques. Yet Wu Yuan slaughtered them in the blink of an eye.
"Wu Yuan can rightfully be called the strongest True Saint since the Primordium. If we can see it, the other old fogeys in the cosmic sea won't fail to notice either," Hou Tu concluded.
"You're worried they won’t take action?" Di Jiang instantly read her thoughts.
Hou Tu nodded slightly.
