Supernatural Insight Eyes-Chapter 1782: Even a Saint Is a Whetstone!

"A battle above the Nine Heavens!"

The voice of the Sky Star Saint echoed across the land, then he soared directly toward the sky.

Following Ye Qiu’s instructions, the Saint’s avatar also ascended, arriving above the Nine Heavens to continue dueling with the Sky Star Saint.

When one’s strength reaches the Saint Realm, the power unleashed is incredibly terrifying. If the battlefield is not moved, many people nearby may suffer collateral damage, which is something the Sky Star Saint wishes to avoid.

Ye Qiu feared that the aftermath of the Saint’s attack would cause massive destruction to the Dan Shen Sect’s valley. Otherwise, he wouldn’t care where to fight; with so many from the Sky Star Sect and Thousand Illusions Sect present, he wouldn’t hesitate to wipe them out. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

For a moment, everyone’s gaze turned toward the Nine Heavens. All present were martial artists and could see far into the distance, from the ground, observing the scene of the two Saints clashing.

With the battlefield moved to the Nine Heavens, attacks wouldn’t be restricted as much, especially for the Sky Star Saint, who swung his fists directly, fiercely battling with the Saint’s avatar.

Their strikes had the power to break the void with each punch; even stars seemed to be able to be knocked down.

While people were astonished, they also marveled at the terrifying power of the Saints. This was the first time in over a century that Saints had clashed in Qingfeng County, with the last occurrence being when the Saints from the three major sects had not yet gone into seclusion.

The commotion from the Saints’ duel was not ordinary; soon, more and more people were startled by the sounds in the sky. Coupled with reports from some who followed the two sects here, the news of the Saints targeting the Dan Shen Sect spread swiftly, as if on wings.

The people from Piaomiao Sect also rushed over at the first moment, including the Sect Leader, the Piaomiao Saintess, and several elders, as well as Hua Wuhun, Shen Aotian, Bai Zishu, and other prodigies.

The Tian Can Sect’s members also mobilized. As a sect similarly wishing to eliminate Ye Qiu, although they didn’t have a Saint, witnessing Ye Qiu falling at a Saint’s hands was satisfying enough, prompting Sect Leader Lu to bring many sect members to the Dan Shen Sect to witness the spectacle.

"Is Sect Leader Ye in danger?" The Sect Leader of Cangcui Sect sighed upon hearing that a Saint was involved. He lamented twice, as he felt powerless to assist the Dan Shen Sect.

Sect Leader of Juejian Valley, Jiuyang Sect, and Mantian Sect had previously maintained good relations with the Dan Shen Sect, but with Saints from two major sects involved, they could only watch silently.

"Let’s go see off Sect Leader Ye," the leaders of the four sects agreed, setting off together, aiming straight for the Dan Shen Sect.

"The Saints want to kill Brother Ye..." Upon hearing the news, Gao Wanli was dazed for a while, but he still decided to make the trip.

Meanwhile, the news reached the Hua family, where Hua Mantang stood in front of the hall, murmuring, "The time to test the Dan Shen Sect has finally arrived. Whether they can overcome this disaster concerns whether they are a dragon or a worm. Although I think their chances aren’t high, perhaps a miracle might happen."

Hua Mantang then instructed the housekeeper to investigate and report the final outcome.

The entire Qingfeng County, with almost all sects and experts, began to gather towards the Dan Shen Sect, as a Saint’s duel was unfolding here.

It was also considered a necessary path for the revival and resurgence of the Dan Shen Sect.

The road to the Dan Shen Sect’s mountain gate was clogged with people; some began from the hillside, advanced along the mountain path, and steadily approached the sect’s gate, near the battlefield.

As they neared the battlefield, people discovered that the fight was taking place high in the sky, at an extreme altitude, with two voices constantly engaging each other, which explained the occasional shocking noises.

The Sky Star Saint, after some attacks, failed to defeat the Saint’s avatar, which startled him.

In the Sky Star Saint’s eyes, the Saint opposite seemed like a killing machine that knew no pain, just pure attacking. The attacks were simple; although powerful, something felt lacking.

Little did he know that the Saint was controlled by Ye Qiu. With Ye Qiu’s soul inside it, Ye Qiu wasn’t a real Saint and naturally couldn’t unleash the full power of a Saint. However, the avatar was tremendously strong when alive, with deeply ingrained combat memories in its body. Even though Ye Qiu knew none of a Saint’s battle techniques, he could confidently contend with the Sky Star Saint based on its combat instincts.

As the Sky Star Saint attempted to understand the Saint’s avatar through battle, Ye Qiu was gaining a general insight into his opponent through the avatar.

Ye Qiu noticed that the Saint before him had considerable differences from the Saint he encountered on Earth, whose attacks were terrifyingly potent. Ye Qiu had survived only by hiding in the Taihuang Bell; otherwise, he would certainly have perished.

To destroy the ancient lands beyond Earth requires extraordinarily powerful force.

Yet Ye Qiu didn’t sense such terror from the Sky Star Saint. Although He was formidable, he didn’t compare to that other Saint.

Saints indeed varied in their levels.

From Ye Qiu’s perception, the Sky Star Saint’s strength should be at the first level of the Saint Realm, whereas the Saint capable of obliterating the ancient lands was at least a level higher, with a significant difference in power.

In truth, the Sky Star Saint’s strength wasn’t low; it’s just that his lifespan was dwindling, and his power was greatly reduced, not in peak condition, which created an illusion for Ye Qiu. If the Sky Star Saint were to unleash his peak power, it would be exceedingly terrifying.

The Sky Star Saint hadn’t intended to use his trump card yet. In his view, it’s best not to use it; once he does, he moves closer to death.

Decades of life could be shortened. The Sky Star Saint preferred to defeat the Saint’s avatar with his current strength, even if injured, rather than exhaust his lifespan for a win that ultimately feels like a loss.

The Sky Star Saint cherished his life, intending to use his remaining time to comprehend the universal level, thus increasing his lifespan, leading to a prolonged tug-of-war with the Saint’s avatar.

For Ye Qiu, this was fortuitous, as battling with the Sky Star Saint allowed him, through the Saint’s avatar, to rapidly accumulate martial arts experience.

Sparring with a master accelerates growth, akin to playing chess against a skilled opponent, enhancing one’s chess skills. Conversely, playing against an incompetent player not only fails to improve skills but may even degrade them.

It’s like debating with a fool; you won’t win because the fool will drag your intelligence down to its level and then defeat you with extensive experience.

Through the Saint’s avatar, Ye Qiu’s duel with the Sky Star Saint yielded far greater benefits than fighting with martial artists of the Devourer Realm. He was able to confirm numerous suspicions through the avatar’s implementation.

Daring to use a Saint as a whetstone might be a unique occurrence in the Origin Continent.
