Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

The Emperors did not look too happy by the time Chu Kuangren was done speaking. Only then did Lan Yu, Leng Ningyu, and the others realize what was going on all this time.

‘So that’s why. I get it now.’

“Let’s go.”

Chu Kuangren was just about to leave with Lan Yu and Murong Xuan.

“Hold on a second.”

At this moment, the Scaled Tribe’s Emperor, Bei Ming Xuanse stopped him.

He said to Chu Kuangren, “You can leave if you want, but you’ll have to leave behind my Scaled Tribe’s Neptune’s Trident Halberd. That’s an Emperor Weapon that belongs to my tribe.”

“This Neptune’s Trident Halberd is a trophy I obtained myself. Although I don’t have much use for it anymore, I don’t think I’ll hand it over just like that.”

“Oh, I see. I guess a battle between you and me is inevitable then?” Bei Ming Xuanse stepped forwards, and his Emperor’s Aura instantly surged towards Chu Kuangren violently like a crashing tide.

“Please think carefully. Are you sure you want to battle me?”

Chu Kuangren said lightly.

“Hmph, rumor has it that you killed five new Emperors after you became one. Well, let’s see how powerful you are and whether your strength is on par with us, veteran Emperors.”

Without another word, Bei Ming Xuanse unleashed a punch towards Chu Kuangren. Mysterious Daoist Patterns swirled between his fingers as the Emperor qi on his fingertips shot out a surge of powerful energy that could destroy everything in its path.

In retaliation, Chu Kuangren also threw a punch toward his opponent.

As the two fists clashed, both Daoist patterns intertwined and produced a huge shockwave that shook the void. Even Bei Ming Xuanse was forced back several meters by the impact.

However, Chu Kuangren remained in his place.

“How is he so powerful?!”

Bei Ming Xuanse’s expression changed as he looked at Chu Kuangren with fear.

He then took out a white staff that had Daoist patterns swirling all over it. As such, his Emperor’s Aura increased in strength once more.

With his Emperor Weapon in hand, Bei Ming Xuanse dashed towards Chu Kuangren and attacked. His dense and overpowering Emperor’s Aura lashed out one wave after another.

“Now fall! Heavenly Jade Strike!”

Bei Ming Xuanse lifted his staff and slammed it down on Chu Kuangren, its terrifying power directly hitting the void. Countless Daoist patterns containing a terrifying torrential force soon formed into a gigantic whirlpool.

“Empyrean Maelstrom!” Chu Kuangren cast his Invincible Technique, and the same Daoist pattern-formed whirlpool appeared in his palm.

When the two whirlpools collided, Bei Ming Xuanse’s attack was rapidly broken down and absorbed by Chu Kuangren’s whirlpool in the end.

“What?!”

Just as Bei Ming Xuanse was stunned by what happened, a massive surge of energy launched out from Chu Kuangren’s whirlpool.

That was his own torrential force.

With a loud bang, Bei Ming Xuanse was blasted backward with his white staff in hand!

“That’s an Esoteric Art. You’ve managed to cultivate an Esoteric Art!”

Bei Ming Xuanse exclaimed.

Besides him, the rest of the Emperors could not believe it too.

“I can’t believe a new Emperor can master an Esoteric Art?”

“This is truly unbelievable. Furthermore, judging by that Esoteric Art’s aura, it’s not an ordinary one too!”

“Bei Ming Xuanse is no weak Emperor as well. As a Rank Four Initial Emperor, he’s considered an Expert Initial Emperor. Yet, this new Emperor has managed to force him back twice now. The only explanation that justifies his level of combat strength is that he possesses a High-grade Esoteric Art”

Esoteric Arts were usually rare in existence.

What’s more, a High-grade Esoteric Art.

“It’s my turn to return the favor now.”

Chu Kuangren’s Descendant Self Sword instantly shot out from its sheath, revealing its white jade-like body that was covered in mysterious Daoist patterns. At that moment, a terrifying Sword Dao aura erupted and pushed all the surrounding Emperors back.

Then, the Descendant Self Sword circled Chu Kuangren twice before falling into his grasp. With a gentle swing of the sword, the might of an Invincible Technique immediately burst out.

Boom!

A bright purple sword ray directly tore through the void.

Its menacing sword aura was locked onto Bei Ming Xuanse.

“This is bad!” Bei Ming Xuanse hurriedly channeled his power to its fullest potential and unleashed a blow towards the incoming sword ray with his staff.

As the Daoist patterns from both sides clashed, Chu Kuangren’s sword ray deflected off the staff and landed on Bei Ming Xuanse’s body. Upon being hit, several scales appeared on his body. It looked like it was body armor.

Despite this, that tremendous amount of energy still caused Bei Ming Xuanse to vomit blood. The sword ray sent him flying and crashing into the ice palace’s ceiling with such force that caused the whole palace to rumble.

A huge hole opened in the ceiling as Bei Ming Xuanse continued to be blasted out of the palace. However, Chu Kuangren still had no intentions of ending the fight.

He took a step forward and arrived outside the palace.

With his sword in hand, he unleashed a sword technique once more.

This time, the sword ray was far more powerful than before, so much that conjurations depicting a calamitous scenery appeared in the void. Everyone was stunned.

In the face of that attack, a sense of panic arose in Bei Ming Xuanse.

“I won’t be able to block this attack!”

“I might die!”

Bei Ming Xuanse’s forehead was instantly drenched with cold sweat.

Just as he was about to be struck by that sword ray, a stream of light flickered past him and landed on the sword ray like a meteor.

The impact from the two energies colliding was akin to two planets crashing into each other. Several spatial rifts spread in the void, stretching as long as several thousand kilometers.

The whole Great Frost Dragon Mountain was at the brink of destruction.

That huge impact sent Bei Ming Xuanse flying several hundred meters back again. However, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the middle-aged man dressed in white standing in front of him.

On the other side, Chu Kuangren pointed his Descendant Self Sword at Great Emperor Hua Xing and asked, “What’s the matter? Planning to attack a new Emperor like me too?”

Great Emperor Hua Xing was at Rank Nine in the Initial Emperor Realm.

He was a top-notched Perfected Initial Emperor!

In terms of cultivation realms, Chu Kuangren was just a mere Rank One Initial Emperor, which was worlds apart compared to his opponent. Both of them were on a completely different level.

However, Chu Kuangren was not afraid to face Great Emperor Hua Xing, whose cultivation level was much higher than his. In fact, he looked as calm as ever.

The other Emperors could not help but exclaim in amazement.

They wondered whether he was putting up an act or truly confident in facing his opponent.

Although Great Emperor Hua Xing could not tell why Chu Kuangren was behaving as such, he did not wish to create a conflict with this new Emperor.

However, because he was still the leader of these Emperors, he could not stand by and allow Chu Kuangren to kill Bei Ming Xuanse either.

“Brother Chu, I hope you can be the bigger person and take a step back. Brother Bei Ming is indeed the one at fault here, but don’t you think it’s a bit too much to kill him over something like this? Why don’t you let the matter slide?”

Great Emperor Hua Xing said.

“Hmph, it’s easy for you to say. He was the one who attacked me in the first place. Even though I told him to think about it, he still insisted in the end. Am I the one to blame for this? I won’t let this slide so easily.”

“If that’s the case, Brother Chu, what have you got in mind?”

“I demand compensation for this.”

Chu Kuangren replied.

Clashing head-on with Great Emperor Hua Xing would not be a smart thing to do right now. However, he could not let things slide without gaining anything in return.

“Impossible.” Bei Ming Xuanse’s face turned grim.

“You have no right to object, loser.”

Chu Kuangren shot him a glare.

He then looked at Great Emperor Hua Xing, who was clearly the person in charge here.

“Here’s a piece of Emperor-grade soul emblem. Is that enough?”

Great Emperor Hua Xing took out a golden crystal that contained an incredibly pure spiritual qi within. It had even produced an Emperor qi on its own.

Chu Kuangren accepted the Emperor-grade soul emblem, and after fiddling with it for a while, he nodded. That item was sufficient for him to increase his cultivation to the next level. He might even step into the Rank Two Initial Emperor Realm with it.

“I don’t care how all of you plan to split the territories, but Black Heaven Sect is mine. Whoever that dares intrude upon my land shall face the merciless edge of my sword!”

Chu Kuangren swept his gaze across the crowd as he said indifferently.

Then, he left with Lan Yu and the others.

Great Emperor Hua Xing appeared a little perplexed as he looked at Chu Kuangren’s departing silhouette. “Is this the person that the Heavenly Imperials want me to keep an eye on? He’s a feisty one for sure. Then again, he’s still a new Emperor, full of spirit and vigor. How nice it is to be young like him.”
