"Itβs no wonder you have such confidence."
Seeing Qin Chen withstand his attack, the towering figure let out a thunderous roar, and an unusual light flickered in his gaze as he looked at Qin Chen.
Such words sparked a tremendous uproar among everyone present.
Half-step supreme?
This kid is only a half-step supreme?
In the distance, both Emperor Shihen and Elder Yi were taken aback, finding it hard to believe.
Just a half-step supreme, yet he could defeat their combined assault and slay the four leaders. Even Elder Yi, a half-step pinnacle supreme who could summon a supreme treasure artifact, failed to suppress him. It was truly shocking and incomprehensible.
What astonished everyone even more was that Qin Chen, with merely half-step supreme cultivation, could withstand an attack from the divine thought of Shihen Supreme.
It was unbelievable!
In Elder Yi's mind, Shihen Supreme was an invincible being. With a single palm strike, not to mention a half-step supreme, even a supreme-level cultivator would be severely injured, possibly even perish.
But what about Qin Chen?
A young half-step supreme managed to withstand it? What kind of joke was that?
Earlier, Elder Yi and the others had suspected that Qin Chen was hiding his cultivation.
But now, Shihen Supreme's words awakened them; Qin Chen hadn't concealed anything and was truly just a half-step supreme.
Shihen Supreme could not be mistaken.
Upon hearing this, Qin Chen smiled lightly, "So what if I blocked your divine thought attack? Even if your true self were to come, I could still directly annihilate you."
"Madman, this guy is a complete madman."
"Arrogant, does he even know what he's saying?"
Qin Chen's words left everyone present stunned and speechless.
A young half-step supreme provoking a mid-stage supreme, even claiming to slay the other, no matter how you looked at it, seemed like reckless madness.
"Youth, confidence is good, but being overly arrogant is just foolish."
The divine thought avatar of Shihen Supreme let out a cold snort. Seeing Qin Chen still holding on under his attack, he immediately shouted in anger.
Boom!
The endless dark power in the world surged, and the rolling dark aura quickly fused into the body of the divine thought phantom.
At this moment, for Shihen Supreme, being provoked by such a young person meant that if he did not slay him, how could his Shihen Imperial Sect stand in the Black Jade Continent?
Bang!
Qin Chen's outstretched dark hand made cracking noises, continuously fracturing under the overwhelming aura of Shihen Supreme.
Under the full-force strike of Shihen Supreme's divine thought phantom, Qin Chen felt an unmatched oppressive force descending, as if millions of Ancient Divine Mountains were pressing down on him.
This was the divine thought strike of a mid-stage supreme level Shihen Supreme.
Back when Qin Chen first entered the Eternal Abyss of Demons, he had fought with a powerful being from the Dark Clan. Although that Dark Clan powerhouse, Gu Yi, was only a half-step supreme, he possessed power no weaker than a supreme-level cultivator.
This was because the Dark Clan had transcended the cycle of the universe once, and their cultivated techniques and mastered rules surpassed some powerful beings in this universe.
Now, although Shihen Supreme was only a mid-stage supreme, in terms of true strength, he was definitely not weaker than mid-stage pinnacle supremes in this universe and might even be more frightening.
Even this person's divine thought phantom could suppress ordinary supreme-level cultivators.
Boom!
Crack...
As Shihen Supreme's divine thought phantom continued to exert pressure, the dark hand that Qin Chen unleashed immediately made a sound of shattering, and that terrifying power pressed down towards his physical body relentlessly.
Bang bang bang!
Sound after sound of bone-crunching explosions erupted from Qin Chen's body, causing everyone to shudder.
At this moment, many powerful beings saw Qin Chen, who had once been invincible, now being firmly suppressed and trapped under the overwhelming dark power, crushed like this, and their hearts turned cold.
