Only the Three Pure Ones, Saint Jieyin, and the Tathagata Buddha, who had just broken through and already reached the Peak of the sage, might possibly be able to shatter such a comet.
Siti did not understand what Sha Chen, standing at the pinnacle of the stars and looking down upon such a comet, was trying to do.
If he wanted to shatter it, he should act now or it would be too late, as no one's casual strike could destroy such a massive comet. Even Tathagata Buddha would need to gather his strength and exert all his power to annihilate it.
While Siti was in a state of utter shock, Sha Chen finally made his move, but he did not directly use mana, nor did he employ any Divine Power.
He just casually extended a palm, and under Siti's shocked and incredulous gaze, his hand began to extend infinitely, then grew larger.
Even a palm that became as vast as the sky could not block the rapidly approaching comet, a meteor capable of destroying heaven and earth. But at this moment, a miracle happened. Sha Chen stood proud amidst the cosmos, like an ant shaking a tree, and his seemingly insignificant, towering hand actually blocked the hugely destructive comet.
The burning comet collided with Sha Chen's palm, pushing him back tens of thousands of feet, but without causing him the slightest injury. Instead, the massive comet began to crack.
Then, with a powerful push from Sha Chen, the entire comet disintegrated, turning into countless particles of cosmic dust.
Sha Chen's casual palm not only stopped the comet but also shattered it with a single effort.
It was evident that his physical defense had reached a level capable of withstanding a comet hurtling through the universe. A comet that Superior Saints would need to exert all their strength to shatter couldn't even harm him before it reached his palm.
And with just a little effort, Sha Chen instantly shattered the massive comet.
Siti was stunned.
She was completely dumbfounded, unable to imagine just how powerful one must be to perform such a feat.
To what realm has Sha Chen's strength now reached?
「Inside the cave dwelling.」
Sha Chen stood with his hands behind his back, wearing a smile.
Siti exclaimed in amazement, "River Lord, to what extent has your strength reached!?"
Sha Chen chuckled, "I just made a move to destroy the comet to test how far my strength has reached."
"But unfortunately, that comet, which I had captured and selected for its great power, was still unable to test the pinnacle of my strength."
Siti swallowed hard, thinking that what he had just said was really showing off, yet it seemed to fall within reason.
The meteor did push Sha Chen back tens of thousands of feet, but it did not injure him in the slightest. In the end, Sha Chen shattered it with a casual push.
It truly seemed to indicate that Sha Chen had not used all his strength, and the comet was not able to test the full extent of his power.
Though it seemed unbelievable, that was the fact.
Then, filled with surprise and delight, Siti said, "With your current strength, ordinary Saints are no match for you."
Sha Chen replied, "Ten years ago, when my strength had not made any breakthroughs, ordinary Saints were already no match for me."
"After ten years, today, my physical body has broken through to an unprecedented realm, reaching the Divine Dao state. Not to mention ordinary Saints, even Superior Saints are no match for me."
This was not Sha Chen being arrogantly boastful, but a clear self-awareness and immense confidence in himself.
Siti asked, "So, what will you do next? Continue to cultivate in the cave dwelling or go out to strive for your own Heavenly Dao?"
Sha Chen looked at Siti and laughed, "Honestly, although you came the latest, you've been with me the longest. Now that my strength has reached an unprecedented realm, where should I go from here? I've decided to listen to your advice."
Siti's face turned red. As the Bodhi Tree, she had lived for countless years and experienced many storms, becoming unshakable with no inner turmoil.
But at this moment, witnessing Sha Chen's remarkable feat, waves of emotion stirred in her usually tranquil heart.
Furthermore, Sha Chen had never asked others about where to go and what to do. Now, he was taking the initiative to ask her for advice.
Instantly, Siti felt a thrill.
She once said no man in her life could ever catch her eye, but after only a few hundred years with Sha Chen, she had become moved, developing feelings of admiration and affection for him.
Now that Sha Chen was asking her for advice, it naturally deepened both her admiration and affection for him.
Siti hesitated for a moment, then suggested, "Why not go out?"
Then she shook her head, "Forget it, you will never leave this place. There's nowhere better out there; it's better not to listen to me."
Sha Chen started smiling.
"The system has detected that Grand Destiny Carrier Siti has suggested you go out. You have the following choices."
"Option one: Accept Grand Destiny Carrier Siti's suggestion to go out, and receive the reward [World Tree Origin]. World Tree Origin: Legend has it that God Pangu made the handle of the Pangu Axe from a segment of the World Tree's trunk before the primeval chaos was separated. After creating heaven and earth, he returned the handle to the World Tree. From then on, the World Tree carried Pangu's aura and became the origin of all vegetation for future generations."
