Chapter 1045

"And when cultivation reaches this level, it is already close to the limit that the spiritual energy of this world can bear."

"If she wants to advance further, she must use special means, such as the Taiji Mysterious Coffin where Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhao Kuangyin sleep."

"Even with talent as strong as Wu Zetian's, it is equally difficult to break through in a short time."

"So Wu Zetian thought of a shortcut, which is to use the yin essence of 3,600 pure yin maidens in the harem to stimulate the Heavenly Demon's evil energy in her body and complete the breakthrough."

"Once she successfully takes this step, she can rank among the first-tier Martial Saints."

"Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, she is tentatively ranked sixth on the Nine Provinces Martial Saint Ranking."

As Su Chen's voice fell, there was another gasp in the hall.

Unexpectedly, Su Chen had announced four Martial Saints all at once.

And all four of these Martial Saints practiced divine-demonic level techniques; the Three Emperors and one Buddha were not only at the pinnacle of martial Dao, but also held peak power.

This could not help but make many people exclaim at the power of divine-demonic level techniques, completely crushing a crowd of ordinary techniques.

And what shocked everyone the most was the Great Tang Empress Wu Zetian.

Although they had heard Su Chen's commentary on Wu Zetian before, hearing it again at this moment still felt incredible.

Although Wu Zetian's background was bumpy, it also created her unique and strange talent, merging the demonic and Buddhist paths into one.

Just for this point alone, she had already surpassed everyone in the world.

Hearing the commentary that followed, everyone was even more shocked beyond measure.

A Great Perfection Martial Saint in her forties; just thinking about it made one feel shocked.

At the same time, Su Chen also exposed a heaven-shaking secret.

That was about the limit of spiritual energy in this world.

Because the Xuanyuan Sword had sucked away 90% of the Nine Provinces' spiritual energy, it caused a great change in heaven and earth, and martial Dao declined.

In the great world where Martial Emperors emerged one after another, to this day, even producing a quasi-Emperor was an exceptional existence.

Under normal circumstances, the peak of the Martial Saint realm was already the ceiling.

To break through this ceiling, one must use special means.

For example, Zhao Kuangyin and Zhu Yuanzhang used the Taiji Mysterious Coffin, and Wu Zetian wanted to absorb the yin essence of 3,600 pure yin maidens.

But one thing was beyond doubt.

That was that Wu Zetian, as the Great Tang Empress, was definitely the number one person among women in the world; her martial Dao, power, and even her appearance and background were all top-tier.

And what made everyone feel incredible was that Wu Zetian, who had already touched the ceiling, was only ranked at the top of the second tier.

Above her, there were still five full seats.

That is to say, at least five people in the world today had reached the quasi-Emperor realm above the ceiling!

For a time, everyone in the hall began to discuss it one after another:

"Divine-demonic level techniques are indeed powerful; the quasi-Emperor absolute arts practiced by the Xiao brothers are ultimately a notch worse."

"I never thought that the peak of the Martial Saint realm was already the ceiling; no wonder these powerhouses practicing divine-demonic level techniques also stopped at this realm."

"This Mohe Ye is indeed powerful; with him assisting Li Shimin, it seems this Great Sui empire is indeed going to change hands."

"With the strength of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhao Kuangyin, they couldn't even rank in the top five of the Martial Saint Ranking; there are too many hidden powerhouses in this world."

"Perhaps Zhao Kuangyin and Zhu Yuanzhang of that year felt the restrictions of heaven and earth's spiritual energy, which is why they resolutely entered the Taiji Mysterious Coffin."

"What a terrifying Empress Wu Zetian; if her talent had been born in the mythological era or the ancient era, she would probably be a Wu Di by now."

"Wu Zetian is an imperial ruler, a Great Perfection Martial Saint in her forties; there shouldn't be a woman stronger than her in the world today, right?"

"Who says women are inferior to men? Demon Master Bai Suzhen, Sword Immortal A Qing, and Empress Wu Zetian are the pride of us women."

"Mr. Su said that the peak of the Martial Saint realm is the ceiling of this world, so wouldn't the first-tier Martial Saints all be existences that surpass the ceiling?"

"The Three Emperors and one Buddha can only rank in the second tier; I am now very curious about who the top five Martial Saints in the first tier are."

"I guessed correctly; the mysterious powerhouse of the Great Han Jianghu has strength that has reached the quasi-Emperor realm above the ceiling of this world."

"Currently, it is known that Cheng Jiao, Ying Zheng, and the mysterious powerhouse of the Great Han should all be ranked as first-tier Martial Saints, but I really can't guess the remaining two."
