My gorgeous wife

Chapter 2054 - 2022: Born Here

Generally speaking, there are a few standards for judging how strong a cultivator is.

One is the cultivator’s cultivation. Another is the cultivator’s actual combat power.

After all, cultivation does not always represent everything. Many times, a cultivator’s real combat experience is often more important than cultivation... unless the gap in cultivation between the two sides is overwhelmingly large.

As for Li Chen, it was precisely with his rich battle experience that he had been pulled back from the edge of death many times, while delivering a fatal blow to the enemy.

The other standard is the Breath of Life.

Whether a cultivator’s Breath of Life is strong or weak determines that cultivator’s current condition.

For example, a top-tier expert who is about to die of old age—no matter how powerful his cultivation aura is—if his Qi-Blood has withered, his Breath of Life will be extremely weak. An existence like that, even if he can erupt with terrifying strength, absolutely cannot withstand a prolonged battle. If he fails to kill his opponent in a short period of Time, the one to fall will most likely be himself.

And now, what Li Chen sensed from beyond the sky was an incomparably dense Breath of Life, one that had even reached a terrifying level.

Perhaps having powerful cultivation does not necessarily mean having great strength, but if someone’s Breath of Life is powerful, then it means the other party is absolutely strong!

This is a law.

Because those with powerful cultivation do not necessarily possess a strong Breath of Life, but those with a strong Breath of Life will definitely possess powerful strength!

And that strength includes cultivation!

"What’s wrong?" At this moment, Old Chen beside Li Chen saw that Li Chen had been staring at the sky for quite a while and couldn’t help but ask.

"Trouble’s coming." Li Chen let out a soft sigh, but did not elaborate.

At this moment Old Chen also understood that Li Chen’s identity was definitely not simple.

If it were simple, there’s no way someone with Luu Chen’s status would have agreed to meet him so easily.

Although he had guessed that Li Chen’s identity was out of the ordinary, when he recalled a certain person, he still shook his head and forcibly dispelled that thought from his mind.

Because it was completely impossible.

That person had already undergone Ascension so many years ago—how could he possibly appear in this world again?

Moreover, even if he did appear, given that person’s age, how could he show up in the form of a youth like this?

Old Chen had once been an old member of the Palace of the Nether King. Although he could be considered to have broad experience, since he had never been to the Heaven Realm, he simply couldn’t imagine what that world was truly like.

Perhaps Earth-level Experts could delay aging and maintain a certain frozen youth, but no matter what, Time would still pass. As age increased, a Martial Artist’s body would still bear the marks of the years.

But once one reached the Heavenly Level, it was different.

For some experts, whatever appearance they wanted to have was nothing more than a matter of a single thought.

"Let’s go."

Letting out a soft sigh, Li Chen himself couldn’t guess what the appearance of this Breath of Life would bring, but he could sense that such a powerful Breath of Life appearing on Earth absolutely wouldn’t be a good thing.

"Back then, Senior Wenxing’s calamity was not answered. Could it be that this Time, the calamity is going to be triggered?" Li Chen muttered silently in his heart.

Although right now he had no cultivation on him at all, for the Martial Artists on Earth, it was still almost impossible to injure him. However, that did not mean that his current combat power was strong.

At most, he was just a sturdier sandbag.

Moreover, even though that Breath of Life had only flashed by for an instant before concealing itself again, he could still tell by comparison that this Breath of Life was stronger than his.

Not just a bit or two stronger, but by a lot!

A Breath of Life far more powerful than his descending upon Earth could not be a good thing from any angle.

At this moment, in a hidden location Outside Linchuan, a secret meeting was taking place.

"Everyone has seen the footage, right?" A blonde woman sat at the head seat, her gaze slowly shifting away from the 3D projection not far away.

In the projection, a Meteorite was hurtling toward Earth at an extremely violent speed, the image incomparably clear.

It was precisely because the image was so clear that everyone could see, during the Meteorite’s rapid flight, that there was a sudden wriggling on the Meteorite’s surface.

If it had just been some ordinary change, they might not have cared. But that wriggling was clearly caused by life activity. Something like that was something even they could not ignore.

"The space monitoring station has just sent word. As the Meteorite approached Earth, it directly broke through the Formation line web we had laid at various space stations. According to the readings, we still can’t confirm whether there is truly life inside this Meteorite, but what we can confirm is that there are definitely signs of artificial interference on it!"

"Alien life?" A man in a Black jacket sitting to the side let out a soft sigh as he spoke.

"I don’t think there’s anything to be afraid of." On the other side, a skinny man said calmly, "At the very beginning, the people from the minor worlds were also considered alien life to us, weren’t they? But now? Aren’t we all living in peace? And among those present, there are quite a few who came from the minor worlds..."

"This is different!" The blonde woman interrupted the skinny man’s words in a deep voice. "On this matter, the lord and all the Ascended seniors came to a conclusion long ago. The minor worlds were originally Companion Spaces attached to our Earth’s Main World. Even though we divided into two spaces, in essence, we are one and the same."

"But this kind of alien life is not the same."

At this moment, the blonde woman couldn’t help looking to another side. There, a huge projection screen was hanging, and in front of the screen, a young man was also watching the scene with a grave expression.

"Chang Feng, what did Elder Ji say?"

Hearing this, the young man could only shake his head lightly. "The old man said he’s not getting involved anymore. This matter is to be handled by us youngsters."

Upon hearing the young man’s words, everyone in the conference room looked at each other, then could only sigh helplessly.

For other people, they might still grumble a few words in private, but toward that old man, they did not dare.

Back in those days, when all the old ancestors reached the limit of their strength, they chose Ascension together, heading to a wider world. But this old man chose to stay.

Before Ascension, those old ancestors even mentioned that this old man’s strength was likely no weaker than theirs, perhaps even stronger, yet he still chose to stay, saying he was old and didn’t want to move anymore.

However, before leaving, Master Luoo told them a bit of the truth.

The old man simply could not bear to part with these juniors.

Born here, raised here.

The old man only wanted to guard this land he had been protecting for so many years, until his Death.

Toward this old man, they felt only respect in their hearts, and did not dare utter even half a word of complaint.

Even the blonde woman with a powerful Aura could only sigh softly after hearing this. "Since Elder Ji has said so, then this matter will have to be handled by us."
