Chapter 192: The Unknown Ye Tian!
[Taiyi Zhenren: This is the first time we've heard this name. We've never heard of anyone called Ye Tian. Across the 36 heavens and the vast earth, if someone had such abilities, how could we have never heard of his name before?]
[Ancestor Minghe: Not just you, even I, since the dawn of time, have never heard of this name. Where did he suddenly pop out from? The strength of his physical body surpassing that of Saint Hongjun is too strange!]
Ye Tian, who suddenly appeared at the top of the Body List, shocked the entire Three Realms. No one had heard of this name, not even the ancient and powerful figures.
Even the Saints were curious about how someone with such a powerful physical body could exist without being known.
Especially Saint Hongjun, whose physical body had reached a terrifying level after becoming a Heavenly Path Saint. Apart from the Great God Pangu, no one's physical body could rival his.
Yet, this Body List ranking revealed that someone named Ye Tian surpassed him.
When Ye Tian's image appeared on the Body List, everyone stared intently.
Ye Tian, dressed in a simple white robe, appeared weak, his power seemingly concealed. He didn't look like someone with an overwhelmingly powerful physical body.
But this seemingly frail human cultivator had taken the top spot on the Body List, a spot coveted by countless powerhouses. To them, this seemed impossible.
[Sun Wukong: The Body List must be broken! How can a mere human cultivator have a stronger body than a Saint?]
[Erlang Shen: That's not right. If the list was broken, why does everything look perfectly fine?]
[Sun Wukong: If you could spot the problem, then everyone would know it's faulty. Can't your three eyes see the issue clearly?]
[Haotian Jade Emperor: Is there really a powerhouse in the Three Realms that I am unaware of?]
[Ancestor Minghe: It's almost impossible! If such a powerful being existed, they would already be widely known. There's no way someone could cultivate a body this strong without becoming famous!]
[Lu Ya: No worries. Soon, we'll see his figure. If no one recognizes him after seeing him, then there's truly a problem!]
From the very beginning, Saint Hongjun had been puzzled by the Body List. But after Tathagata intervened and failed to stop it, he sensed the tremendous power behind the list.
Even as a Heavenly Path Saint, he could not prevent it, so he chose to let things unfold naturally.
The key point was that the Heavenly Dao showed no reaction, which was one reason why he did not interfere. By both logic and sentiment, it wasn't something he could stop.
If the Body List truly posed a threat to the Three Realms, the Heavenly Dao would have responded.
As the rankings appeared one after another, he initially found it curious but didn't sense anything wrong. But when his name appeared in second place, Saint Hongjun realized something was off.
Hongjun knew his own strength better than anyone else. He was fully aware of the strength of his physical body, and under the Heavenly Dao, no one could surpass him.
When the first-place name appeared, Saint Hongjun had never heard of Ye Tian either. But with the emergence of the Body List, he began to consider if the list was somehow linked to Ye Tian. Otherwise, how could such an unfamiliar name appear?
Saint Hongjun knew the powerful beings of the primordial world better than anyone. Only a being from that era could have a physical body stronger than his.
His physical body was at the level of a Heavenly Path Saint, and since Ye Tian was ranked above him, his body had to be of that level as well.
But ever since Pangu split the heavens, Hongjun had never heard of a powerful cultivator named Ye Tian.
Moreover, the most critical point was that Ye Tian appeared to be a human. But humans were created by Nuwa. If the Body List was linked to the human race, how could Nuwa not have informed him in advance?
[Sun Wukong: Look at that figure. His power seems so weak, and he's just a human cultivator. What's going on? This has to be broken!]
[Nuwa: That's impossible! How could a human with such a powerful body go unnoticed? When did he appear? I have no information at all!]
[Manjushri Bodhisattva: Perhaps this is why he's ranked first. His power has grown so great that even Nuwa Saint can't perceive him!]
[Taiyi Zhenren: It's over. Things are getting more and more chaotic. If the first place is a primordial powerhouse, it would make sense. But now, it's an unknown human cultivator. Who can understand this?]
[Haotian Jade Emperor: What does he possess that could surpass Saint Hongjun? Humans are naturally weak. Compared to other races, they're not even worth mentioning. Even with powerful cultivation techniques, it's impossible to surpass the number one under the Heavenly Dao!]
[Ancestor Minghe: Is this ranking even accurate? We still don't know who Ye Tian is. We're still clueless. All we know is that he's a human cultivator. Perhaps only Saint Hongjun can confirm its authenticity!]
[Chiyou: How could Saint Hongjun possibly appear? Even though this list could injure Tathagata, it would be utterly useless against Saint Hongjun!]
[Guangchengzi: That's not right. If Saint Hongjun could deal with the Body List, why would he let it exist until now? After all, this thing has an unknown origin!]
[Sun Wukong: When the Body List appeared, wasn't it already stated that rewards would be given based on the rankings? Maybe even Saint Hongjun is waiting for the reward!]
[Ancestor Minghe: There's no reward that could tempt Saint Hongjun. Even if there were, it would have to be something of monumental importance. How could an unknown Body List offer such a huge reward?]
[Guanyin Bodhisattva: You all still don't get it. The rewards aren't important. What matters is figuring out who Ye Tian is. That silhouette merely allowed us to recognize him, but no one knows who he truly is.]
The powerful beings examining the Body List didn't place too much importance on the rewards. They merely saw them as a side effect of the ranking, a mere tool. None of them thought the rewards would be of any real significance.
