Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

“There’s more?”

Chu Kuangren was confused by the divine predictor’s statement.

He could sense that the people referenced by the divine predictor were of unordinary stature.

The divine predictor retrieved a bronze mirror and tossed it into the air. The room was illuminated by a majestic display of lights before a boundless Emperor’s Aura erupted and engulfed the space.

Several apparitions manifested amid the illumination.

Each of these apparitions was seething with fierce Emperor’s Aura.

Those were all Emperors!

The emergence of multiple Emperors’ Aura had surprised many cultivators, and many mobilized their spiritual thoughts to peep into the Black Heaven Sect. When the cultivators saw the Emperors in the orthodoxy, they were dumbfounded, to say the least.

Although technically, they were just apparitions, each of those represented the presence of a true, living Emperor!

It had been years since an Emperor appeared in Firmament Star.

“What’s going on? Why are there so many Emperors?”

“Besides, that’s the predictor. What’s he doing in the Black Heaven Sect?”

“I’ve once heard a rumor that the divine predictor has always stayed in touch with the Emperors. Could it be true?”

“Did the divine predictor invite these Emperors?”

“He probably did.”

The observers gasped in shock as they continued monitoring the situation.

What happened next shocked them even further.

The Emperors’ apparitions began to bow towards Chu Kuangren!

The Emperors were paying their respect!

The cultivators felt a sense of disbelief they had never experienced before.

Those were Emperors!

The Emperors were a group of cultivators who were hailed as being superior to most of humanity!

Yet, they were all paying their respects to one person!

Just how glorious was that?!

Even Chu Kuangren was shocked to witness it. He did not expect the Emperors to put on such a grand gesture.

“Brother Chu, we were unable to descend upon the Firmament Star, but thank the heavens that there was you to stop the massacre from happening. Please accept our gratitude.”

A white-haired elder who was one of the Emperors smiled and said.

“Emperor, you’re too kind.”

“Heh, Brother, we await your arrival above Firmament Star.”

The elder chuckled gently.

Then, the apparitions began to vanish one after another.

Then, their Emperors’ Aura disappeared.

However, the Emperors’ gestures towards Chu Kuangren were such an unforgettable scene for many Firmament Star’s cultivators that their admiration and fear towards Chu Kuangren grew stronger.

“Mister Predictor, did you come all the way here just for me to see the Emperors?”

Chu Kuangren smiled and said.

“Ah, apart from that, I do have another issue that I wish to let you know,” said the divine predictor as he stroked his chin.

“What’s the matter?”

“The road to Emperor’s Realm… shall soon be opened!”

Chu Kuangren’s eyes immediately burned with passion.

The road to Emperor’s Realm was opening?!

“In other words, the finale to the Era of Great Battles has finally arrived.” Chu Kuangren was glimmering with excitement.

“That’s right.”

“When will the road be opened?”

“In approximately a year. The sky-prides of the Nine Heavens have returned to their orthodoxy to prepare after receiving the news.”

“I see. Thank you for informing me, Mister Predictor.”

“Not a problem. Also, it’s been one hundred and fifty thousand years since this road last opened. So this time, the road to Emperor’s Realm will pass through the Underworld Demonic Realm, Firmament Star, and the Nine Heavens, aligning all three worlds together.”

“There may also be more than one Emperor’s Throne this time.”

The more the divine predictor talked, the vaguer he sounded.

Even with the divine predictor’s inductive skills, he was unable to decipher the Emperor Dao clearly. It was all just a blur for now.

“In short, now that the road to the Emperor’s Realm is about to open, and the fight for the Emperor’s Throne is about to reach its climax, you should make the necessary preparations.”

“For sure.” Chu Kuangren nodded.

“Oh, and please keep this item with you. It may be of some use to your journey to the Emperor’s Realm.”

The divine predictor took out a jade scroll.

Once Chu Kuangren received the item, he took a peek at it. The jade scroll contained information about the powerful entities and sky-prides hailed from the Nine Heavens and Underworld Demonic Realm.

Chu Kuangren contemplated for a moment before he put the jade scroll away.

“Thank you.”

After Chu Kuangren had a brief conversation with the divine predictor, the mysterious freak left and continued wandering around the world.

Knowing now that the road to Emperor’s Realm was about to be opened in a year, Chu Kuangren felt the need to do something.

Hence, he went to look for Nangong Huang, Murong Xuan, Shang Qingxue, and the other Daoists.

…

“It’s been a very long time since I’ve last arranged some training for all of you, right?”

Chu Kuangren’s opening remark had already caught the Daoists off guard as flashbacks of some rather unpleasant memories immediately came to them.

“Sect Leader, do you mean…”

Nangong Huang asked ever so cautiously with an uneasy feeling.

“Yep, it’s exactly what you think it is.”

“Sect Leader, why the sudden training sessions?”

“The road to the Emperor’s Realm is about to be opened.”

Chu Kuangren revealed.

The Daoists were shocked at what they heard.

Just a few words alone were enough to make them understand the gravity of the situation.

“We understand now.”

Nangong Huang nodded solemnly.

In the coming days, the Daoists soon occupied themselves with the training regimes that Chu Kuangren had arranged for them.

Not only that but the countless resources of the Black Heaven Sect were also made available for them.

While Chu Kuangren was busy training the Daoists, the sky-prides of the Nine Heavens had returned to their orthodoxies from the lower realm.

Their return had caused quite a commotion in the Nine Heavens, and many of the Nine Heaven’s orthodoxies were able to learn a great deal about Chu Kuangren.

Soon, most of the Nine Heavens cultivators had familiarized themselves with the stories of the Supreme Sage, Chu Kuangren.

Nine Heavens, Bai clan, the archaic orthodoxy!

The Bai Clan Leader was having a discussion with Xiao Jingchen. Several thousands of years ago, Xiao Jingchen had joined the Bai clan as the head’s son-in-law.

Xiao Jingchen’s remarkable talent had made him a key member of the Bai clan.

The clan had even gone to the lower realm searching for all sorts of Emperor’s Opportunities of Fortune for Xiao Jingchen.

Upon his return, Xiao Jingchen shared many of Firmament Star’s news with the clan. One of the topics that were covered included Chu Kuangren.

“You mean he lifted the Heavenly Punishment Seal and went on to become a Supreme Sage? I didn’t know such a person could exist in the lower realm.”

The Bai Clan Leader went silent for a moment before he continued, “What are the odds of you winning in a battle against him if you’re armed with an Emperor’s Weapon?”

“At most… twenty percent.”

“Only twenty percent?!”

The Bai Clan Leader exclaimed in shock.

Xiao Jingchen nodded helplessly. Deep down, he knew he would not even stand a ten percent chance against Chu Kuangren.

He only said that to avoid embarrassing himself too much.

“In that case, what about Hongyu?”

Bai Hongyu was the Bai clan’s outlawed sky-pride.

Bai Hongyu’s combat strengths were unmatchable and were far superior to that of Xiao Jingchen.

“Not more than fifty percent,” said Xiao Jingchen.

“Hmm, alright, I understand now. You may head out first.”

Xiao Jingchen nodded and left the room.

“Chu Kuangren…”

“Perhaps he’s the biggest obstacle on the road to the Emperor’s Realm.”

Apart from the Bai clan.

The other orthodoxies of Nine Heaven, such as the Wang clan, Heavenly Fox Tribe, and the Nine-Headed Snakelet Tribe, were keeping a close watch on Chu Kuangren.

Many saw him as a legitimate threat.

There were also some who thought he was overrated and that Chu Kuangren was not as strong as the stories depicted him to be.

Nonetheless, Chu Kuangren’s reputation was soaring in the Nine Heavens.
