Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws - Chapter 110
Chapter 110: The Eternal Emperor’s Scripture, Immortal Body’s Second Stage, A Sudden Visit From The Divine Predictor
“Not bad, young lad!”
The Seventh Forefather came before Chu Kuangren and praised him.
Both the old lady and Honorable Qing Lan too were relieved and impressed by what Chu Kuangren did.
His feat of slaying a hundred thousand demonic cultivators was something that had never crossed three protectors’ mind. Not to mention that Chu Kuangren had even managed to build a Battle Monarch’s Supreme Foundation Level right after he killed all the demonic cultivators. It was an extremely unbelievable turn of events.
Chu Kuangren chuckled and said, “After this battle, most of the demonic onslaught in the Northern Lingdao State should be solved, so the rest of the work should be easier.”
“You’re right, that’s not bad.”
“However, I’m afraid the reputation of the few sage orthodoxies will plummet terribly after this, and because of that, their disciples will also be inevitably punished upon their return.”
Honorable Qing Lan chuckled.
The current demonic onslaught was a trial that the sage orthodoxies had assigned to their respective disciples, hoping that they could take the opportunity to increase their orthodoxies’ reputation and prestige.
However, no one could ever expect things to turn out like this, with Chu Kuangren taking all the glory and prestige alone for himself.
It could even be said that he was the one who single-handedly settled the whole demonic onslaught.
The remaining sky-prides did not contribute anything in terms of providing assistance, and that was clear to the citizens within the Northern Lingdao State.
Although nothing was said, it was certain that the reputation of the Zhiyang Valley, Serene Wisdom Sect, and other sage orthodoxies were affected.
“Huh, you get what you deserve,” Chu Kuangren said casually.
‘If those people truly wanted to help the common folk fight off the demonic onslaught, things would not have turned out the way it did.’
After that, Chu Kuangren left the mountain range and returned to the Mountain River City.
Countless citizens stood on both sides of the street in the city as Chu Kuangren entered. Everyone looked at him passionately with gazes filled with hope and admiration.
Chu Kuangren was taken aback at the scene.
‘The heck, what’s up with all these people?’
He still had no idea that Host Lee had shown everyone his heroic acts with the Aerial Observation Mirror.
“We are very thankful for Master Chu’s great kindness.”
“Many thanks, Brother Chu.”
“We shall never forget the immortal’s kindness and great deeds.”
Then, the common folk and cultivators on both sides of the street kneeled and bowed.
There were some who addressed Chu Kuangren as a Daoist Brother, and some Master. However, to most of the people there, Chu Kuangren was basically an immortal who had helped them overcome a great peril.
Upon seeing the crowd that had kneeled on the ground before him, Chu Kuangren was a bit in shock.
However, he still went up and helped Host Lee, as well as the Mountain River Daoist, to stand up. “You guys, please stand. There’s no need for this.”
“Brother Chu, you have helped cleanse the demonic onslaught from my Northern Lingdao State. For such great kindness, you absolutely deserve this.”
Host Lee said.
“I’m just carrying out my duties, that’s all,” Chu Kuangren replied.
He then continued to talk to the crowd of people who welcomed him.
When Ao Chang and the others, from afar, saw Chu Kuangren being respected and revered by the people, their expressions turned grim and cold. Their hearts were filled with extreme jealousy.
No matter where they were, they could only all stand and watch by the sidelines as long Chu Kuangren was there. No one else had noticed them at all and that made them very frustrated.
They were still the sky-prides of their respective orthodoxies after all.
…
“Phew, I’m finally back.”
Chu Kuangren could not help but remarked when he returned to his temporary residence.
Everyone was extremely friendly to him on the streets just now, but he was more exhausted from dealing with all of the people than killing the hundred thousand demonic cultivators.
The next day.
Chu Kuangren yawned as he woke up.
As usual, he opened the Fantasy Roulette after he washed up.
“I haven’t gotten anything good for a long time now. I hope I’ll get lucky this time,” Chu Kuangren said.
The Fantasy Roulette started to spin…
“Congratulations, you have received a Legendary Grade Item… The Eternal Emperor Scripture!”
‘Huh?’
Chu Kuangren’s body trembled.
‘Bloody hell, a Legendary Grade Item came!’
‘And it’s an Emperor Scripture!’
Similar to Emperor Techniques, Emperor Scriptures were usually created by Emperor Realm cultivators. However, there was a large difference between the two terms.
The former was a type of technique while the latter was a record of an Emperor’s understanding regarding the Dao, and it could potentially include various techniques in it as well.
In other words, if the Emperor Technique was a piece of poem, then the Emperor Scripture would be a book that taught one how to write a poem and it may include various poems as well.
That meant in terms of value, the Emperor Scripture would be far more precious than the Emperor Technique, especially during this era where the succession of Emperor Realm cultivators was severed.
If the Emperor Techniques were extremely rare, then the Emperor Scripture would be an unimaginably valuable treasure!
‘If that Emperor Scripture was known to the world, I’m afraid that the whole Firmament Star will be in chaos. All the orthodoxies wouldn’t be able to refuse the temptations of such an item.’
“Eternal Emperor Scripture, written by Eternal Emperor himself. Included chapters, Dao Understanding Chapter, Emperor Technique Chapter, Alchemy Chapter, Runes Chapter…”
Upon seeing the introductory texts for the Eternal Emperor Scripture, Chu Kuangren really wanted to immediately give that scripture a good read through.
“It’s no small matter when it comes to understanding what’s inside the Emperor Scripture. I must not be impatient.” Chu Kuangren took a deep breath and suppressed that thought in his heart.
Then, he proceeded to familiarize himself with the new powers within his body.
He had just broken through to the Battle Monarch Realm and had even managed to form the Supreme Foundation Level’s Nine-Pearled Crown, hence he wanted to test out his newly gained strength.
Besides a breakthrough in his cultivation, Chu Kuangren also realized that his body had undergone some changes as well. His Immortal Body was now one rank higher!
His Immortal Body ability used to be in the first stage, but after breaking through to the Battle Monarch Realm, he was now at the second stage.
Regeneration for broken limbs!
He was already able to heal from various injuries very quickly, but now he could recover by regenerating a broken arm or leg as well.
Chu Kuangren took out the Descendant Self Sword and made a cutting gesture on his arms and legs. ‘Shall I give it a try?’
After thinking for a while, he got rid of that harmful thought.
He never had self-abuse tendencies after all.
Meanwhile, within the void, his three protectors looked at each other in confusion. They were puzzled by Chu Kuangren’s weird actions.
‘Is he preparing to cut himself apart with the blade like that? Who the hell even does that?’
“Master, there’s someone who wants to see you.”
At that moment, Lan Yu knocked on the door and announced.
“Alright, give me a second.”
Once Chu Kuangren put on his clothes and he went out.
“Please hold on a moment, Master.” Suddenly calling out to Chu Kuangren, Lan Yu walked up to him and tidied the collar of his shirt. After taking a few more looks at Chu Kuangren, she smiled with satisfaction. “Alright, done.”
‘Huh, I never expect Lan Yu to be so obsessively compulsive.’
Chu Kuangren chuckled and headed towards the main hall, where he saw that his visitor was an old man in common clothes.
Although his hair was white and the clothes he wore were common, the old man possessed an extraordinary bearing and poise that was similar to an immortal.
Chu Kuangren looked at the man and activated his Eye of Revelation.
“Divine predictor, Leader of the Phantom Valley’s First School of Physiognomy, skilled in clairvoyance, can see into the past by five hundred years and into the future by three hundred years, able to predict what everything that will happen in a span of eight hundred years, the leading person for Physiognomy in the Firmament Star’s current era…”
‘So that’s him!’
Chu Kuangren’s heart rumbled slightly.
The divine predictor was a legendary figure throughout the whole Firmament Star. He was the leading figure in the world of physiognomy and was the one who predicted that the Road to the Emperor’s Realm would open in the future.
It was also due to the words of this man that this current era was known as the Era of Great Battles, allowing many cultivators to regain their hopes of becoming an Emperor in the future.
Even an Honorable Supreme would treat this with respect if they met.
‘Why would a person of such high status come and visit him?’
“Greetings, senior divine predictor.”
Chu Kuangren did not dare to delay his wait any longer and hurriedly went to give a bow.
“Oh, so you’re able to tell who I am without me introducing myself? Can it be that Junior Chu has a type of clairvoyance as well?”
The divine predictor said in shock.
“That’s impossible my senior, besides, there’s no one in the Firmament Star who doesn’t know who you are. So it’s not rare if I’m able to as well, right?”
“Is there a reason for my senior’s sudden visit?”
Chu Kuangren asked curiously.
“Oh, I’m simply curious about you.” By then, the divine predictor had stopped wondering about how Chu Kuangren knew who he was.
After all, the person who stood before him was a complete anomaly as the divine predictor was not able to see or predict anything about him.
