The conversation between Chen Yuan and the Dark Department Director, although not entirely spread out, just a few words shocked the entire cultivation world.
Some even directly accused Chen Yuan:
"He is too arrogant. Does he even know what he is saying??"
"Achieving Heavenly Monarch is as easy as pie? What does he think a Heavenly Monarch is?"
"The Heavenly Monarch is the Lord of Heaven, an existence that governs heaven and earth, a supreme existence above the common masses. And yet that Chen Yuan claims he could easily achieve it—this is simply the height of arrogance."
"I think Chen Yuan is deliberately trying to scare the major alien races and at the same time bolster his own courage."
"But his words are indeed somewhat laughable; if he could achieve Heavenly Monarch, how could he be stuck in the Golden Core?"
"Who doesn't know that the difference between Zhenjun and Heavenly Monarch is like heaven and earth, like an impassable chasm."
