How many years have passed?
Qin Chen could not remember.
A few years? A few decades? A few hundred years? Or even... a thousand years!
In the small world, time accelerated under the influence of the Chaotic World, and Qin Chen lost track of how long it had been. However, his longing for his mother never faded.
For so many years, he had been searching for his mother's trace. Ever since he left Great Qi, he had not seen her again. He inquired about his mother’s whereabouts among the Five Nations, searched everywhere in the Hundred Dynasties, and desperately looked in the Northern Celestial Region.
Even throughout the entire Tianwu Continent.
But his mother remained unreachable.
Later, as time flowed on, he seemed to learn some information, but it was as elusive as the moon in water or flowers in a mirror.
Now, he had finally seen his mother again.
“Mother?”
Demon Spirit Venerable stared in astonishment at Qin Chen and Qin Yuechi. Qin Chen was clearly a True Dragon of the True Dragon Tribe, but the woman, though of an unknown race, looked exactly like a member of the human race. How could a humanoid race give birth to a True Dragon?
While he was shocked, he saw Qin Chen's True Dragon form rapidly change, shrinking little by little until he transformed into a young human youth.
Sharp! Radiant! This young human merely stood there, exuding an aura akin to a sword unsheathed, ready to pierce the heavens and slay anything that opposed him.
Human race?
Demon Spirit Venerable was dumbfounded, and the five powerful figures of the Demon Tribe beside him were equally astonished.
What was happening?
Weren't they pursuing a powerful True Dragon expert?
How did it suddenly become a human?
At this moment, they completely sensed Qin Chen’s realm.
Instantly, they were even more shocked.
Peak mid Earth Venerable.
Without the concealment of external forces like the primordial chaos source, Qin Chen's cultivation was clearly revealed. He was indeed at the peak mid Earth Venerable stage.
His expression changed to one of gravity.
He finally understood why the ancestor had sent a Spirit Demon Tribe chief to ambush this kid. A mid Earth Venerable human youth capable of killing Heaven Venerable experts, and even surviving his attack for a moment, was undoubtedly a miracle.
If such a genius were to grow, the strength of the human race would surely increase tremendously.
Seeing Qin Chen reminded Demon Spirit Venerable of someone, someone that made the Demon Tribe gnash their teeth in hatred.
Carefree Supreme.
That was just a human who ascended from a lower realm. When he ascended to the human celestial realm, he was merely a little saint.
At that time, the Abyss Demon Tribe had already breached the human alliance, obliterating the human celestial realm. Though both the human and demon races suffered heavy losses and the Demon Tribe was repelled, the human race’s stronghold was destroyed. The Demon Tribe only needed to recuperate and return to dominate the universe, becoming the number one force.
The top forces of the human race had been decimated, and just when the Demon Tribe thought they could easily conquer the universe, Carefree Supreme emerged, rising rapidly, and ultimately became a leader among the human race, a formidable enemy to the Demon Tribe.
Now, the Qin Chen before them was even more shocking to Demon Spirit Venerable, even more terrifying than Carefree Supreme.
If he were to survive, the human race would likely gain another Supreme powerhouse in a few hundred thousand years.
“Mother, how did you end up here?”
On the other side, Qin Chen looked at Qin Yuechi, filled with excitement. He never expected to meet his mother again in such a way.
“Chen'er.”
Qin Yuechi approached Qin Chen, gently cupping his face with her hand, which was firm and sharp, like a chiseled sculpture.
“My Chen'er has finally grown up.”
Qin Yuechi softly embraced Qin Chen, murmuring.
“What mother Chen'er? You are seeking death.”
Demon Spirit Venerable was furious. He had originally intended to drive away this woman, but now he understood that mere harsh words would not deter her; only a battle would suffice.
