Chapter 3004 - 3004: The Man in the Black Mist

The Human Emperor had not yet reached the World Tree when Su Yang had already emerged.

At this time, the Taoist Venerable was also surrounded by the people of the Human Clan, all talking over each other, asking him what had happened back then.

Seeing Su Yang approaching, the crowd immediately made way, allowing Su Yang to come before the Taoist Venerable.

During the time Su Yang hurried over, the Taoist Venerable had also learned from the crowd what had happened to him and how Su Yang had rescued him.

So, upon seeing Su Yang, the Taoist Venerable's expression was visibly awkward and regretful.

One must know, when the Taoist Venerable left the Human Clan side back then, he was very dissatisfied with Su Yang.

He was almost at odds with Su Yang at that time, and even threw a few words of dissatisfaction before leaving.

In the end, when he was in distress, it was Su Yang who saved him.

Not only that, but Su Yang also risked his life, having a confrontation with that White Shadow to bring him back. A slight mistake, and even Su Yang could have been devoured by that White Shadow, becoming a puppet like him.

In such circumstances, his guilt, along with his gratitude towards Su Yang, reached a peak.

The Taoist Venerable stood up, walked directly in front of Su Yang, and bowed deeply: "Su Alliance Leader, thank you for ignoring past grievances and saving my life!"

"I was too muddle-headed before, actually... actually doubting you, I sincerely apologize to you here!"

Su Yang was speechless for a moment, this Taoist Venerable was truly straightforward, even his apology was so direct.

Su Yang quickly helped the Taoist Venerable up: "Elder Taoist Venerable, please don't say such things."

"The past is already gone, why bring it up again?"

"You were also anxious for the rise and fall of the Human Clan, I completely understand this."

The Taoist Venerable sighed: "Ah, Su Alliance Leader, choosing you to lead the Human Clan was indeed the best decision we made."

"In your world's words, you truly have the demeanor of a great general!"

Su Yang laughed: "Elder Taoist Venerable, you should speak about that White Shadow matter, how did you encounter it? And how did it manage to possess you?"

The Taoist Venerable took a deep breath and said in a serious tone: "This matter is a long story."

"After I left the Human Clan last time, I was quite unwilling, planning to enter Chaos, make a trip to the Land of Origin, and see the true situation of the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable, to verify that what you said was wrong."

"However, when I entered Chaos, planning to go to the Land of Origin, I encountered a transcender within Chaos."

"This transcender was not weak in power, yet very strange; his entire body was shrouded in black fog."

"Furthermore, the most crucial thing is that he came out from the Land of Origin!"

"What?" Everyone exclaimed, this was too unexpected, wasn't it?

A transcender emerged from the Land of Origin, what was his connection to the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable?

"Who was that person?" Su Yang immediately asked.

Taoist Venerable: "I was also very curious at the time, immediately pursued him, wanting to see who he really was."

"However, this person's speed was quite fast, I couldn't catch up with him at all."

"Moreover, he seemed indifferent to the surrounding situation."

"With his power, he must have been able to sense my presence."

"Yet, he neither looked back at me nor paused for a moment."

"Even when I called out to him several times, he ignored me, which was very strange."

Su Yang was puzzled, how could such a situation occur?

This person came from the Land of Origin, no matter who he was, no matter his relation to the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable, if someone was following him, he should at least take a look back.

In the end, the Taoist Venerable was chasing and calling, and he didn't even look back, what was really going on here?

Could it be that this person received some order to deliberately not look back?

"And then?" The Human Emperor asked.

Taoist Venerable: "Later on, I just kept pursuing this person. I always felt he had a connection with the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable, so I kept chasing, wanting to figure out what his situation was."

"And this person, within the Great World, flew in one direction, seemingly with a clear goal."

"I followed for a while, and he stopped outside of an Overlapping Space."

"At that time, I didn't know what was happening, so I rushed over to see what was going on."

"But, before I got there, I saw him take out a Jade Pendant from his body."

"He placed the Jade Pendant outside the Overlapping Space, and then it unleashed a surge of power so tremendous it reached an extreme."

"To be honest, I've never seen such a powerful force in my life, and I cannot even imagine such power."

"This power felt as if it surpassed the realm of transcenders, utterly crushing in its grandeur facing transcenders."

The crowd was shocked; for countless eras, all the strongest of World Trees believed transcenders to be the pinnacle.

And now it seems, Su Yang was not wrong, above transcenders, there's an even more powerful realm.

The power described by the Taoist Venerable obviously reached that level.

This realm is beyond their imagination. But undoubtedly, this level can completely annihilate transcenders.

In front of this realm, transcenders are as insignificant as humble ants, truly not worth mentioning!

Moreover, the witnesses vaguely suspected whether the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable had already reached this realm?

If the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable had already reached this realm, then Su Yang's earlier words of caution were wise in retrospect.

Now it seems, even if the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable haven't reached this realm, they can at least wield this level of power.

Otherwise, where did that power in the black fog person's Jade Pendant come from, if not from the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable?

Thinking of this, everyone felt a chill.

If the people hadn't listened to Su Yang's advice and went directly to seek the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable, then perhaps the Human Clan would have been wiped out by now.

Based on the Taoist Venerable's description, once that power erupted, who among these transcenders could survive?

Su Yang remained relatively calm, actually, he had already felt such power before.

The power of Misty Qi, isn't it just like this?

It surpasses the transcender realm, terrifying to the extreme, completely unimaginable by transcenders.

Having witnessed Misty Qi, Su Yang realized there was another realm above transcenders.

Now, the situation described by the Taoist Venerable only confirms Su Yang's suspicions.

However, Su Yang was even more puzzled.

If the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable truly wield this power, then why didn't they directly annihilate the Human Clan?

Or is there still something within the Great World that they fear, preventing them from acting?
