Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws - Chapter 1232
Chapter 1232: The Great Battle, Blade of Zhou, the Last Human Emperor
“Mankind only has emperors who die in battle and never one who surrenders to invaders!”
King Zhou stood proudly in the sky as he uttered those mighty words loudly and clearly. His vast Immortal’s Core energy poured out like a flood, causing the surrounding terrain to quake!
From his body, nine golden strands of dragon qi rose into the skies, each a thousand kilometers long. Every swing from a single dragon’s tail killed countless Immortal gods!
“Impudent fool!”
“From this day onward, the Human Emperor shall cease to exist from this world. Only the Child of Heaven shall remain!”
Seeing the unyielding King Zhou, the surrounding Immortal gods attacked by launching a myriad of Immortal Techniques toward him.
King Zhou was not afraid in the slightest. However, he suddenly felt something and turned his gaze toward Chu Kuangren’s direction. It was as if he was looking at Chu Kuangren across time and space.
With a smile on his face, he said proudly, “Now, take a good look, cultivator of the future. This is how you unleash the Blade of Zhou!”
Grasping his great crimson sword, he immediately unleashed a powerful slash!
His devastating sword qi tore through the void as countless mysterious Daoist patterns appeared. At the same time, an incredibly violent and merciless aura burst forth, disrupting the battlefield around him!
“Blade of Zhou, Berserking Torment!”
His sword qi raged forward like an endless hurricane, engulfing all of the surrounding Immortal gods within it and mincing them into clouds of blood mist. It nearly wiped out half of his enemy’s million-strong army!
At that moment, the Immortal Buddha in the heavens could no longer sit still.
A red-haired Fire God attacked. He summoned an endless stream of flames, turned them into eight fire dragons, and sent them all toward King Zhou.
At the same time, another Lightning God attacked, causing countless lightning pillars to rain down from the Nine Heavens.
The Wind God summoned forth turbulent storms, and the Water God brought forth torrents of water…
The Elite Buddhist cultivators also started chanting Buddhist mantras to summon a golden Buddhist palm that crashed down from the Nine Heavens with full momentum!
Nevertheless, King Zhou maintained his pride in the face of the attacks from all the Immortal gods.
With his crimson greatsword in hand, the nine golden dragon qi behind him roared out at once, causing the Nine Heavens to tremble!
“Blade of Zhou, Tyrannical Ascension!”
Unleashing yet another slash, his tyrannical aura immediately filled the whole area.
At that very moment, it felt as if King Zhou was the only supreme being that existed in the world, and the millions of living beings everywhere could only submit before his might!
His tyrannical sword ray containing countless Daoist patterns swept out with an incredibly unstoppable might. Soon, it collided with an energy torrent formed by the Immortal gods’ combined attacks.
When the two indestructible forces collided, the ground shattered, the void tore open…
Caught in the shockwave from that collision, countless cultivators were reduced into clouds of blood mist.
“Such power!”
Chu Kuangren silently observed all of that while gaining insights into the Blade of Zhou’s mystery.
At that moment, high in the skies, a gigantic black palm came crashing down, containing unlimited Daoist patterns and power.
Under the power of that palm attack, the void shattered while the terrain was reduced to ruins!
Upon seeing that, the Immortal Buddha’s expression changed.
“The Jade Emperor has taken action!”
“Amitabha. To think that even the Immortal Hall’s leader has taken action! The Human Emperor is truly a hero.”
The gigantic palm sign descended from the heavens, as if the sky was falling. It was so powerful that even an Arch Gilded Immortal would cower before it!
At that moment, King Zhou also started to feel a level of pressure that he had never felt before.
“The Jade Emperor is the main culprit for all the chaos that has been happening among mankind. Haha, I finally got to meet you.”
King Zhou let out a great laugh, and the nine golden dragons behind him roared.
“Blade of Zhou, Infinite Void!”
For his final attack, King Zhou channeled all of his Immortal’s Core energy and unleashed a crimson sword ray from his sword.
An absolutely terrifying aura of destruction was contained within that crimson sword ray.
As the sword ray collided with the palm sign, the sword ray gradually eroded the Daoist patterns in the palm sign and tore a huge hole in it.
Meanwhile, the nine golden dragons behind King Zhou rose into the air and crashed into the gigantic palm sign altogether.
Upon collision, an inexplicable shockwave erupted across the whole area and even into the heavens. Everything in the surroundings was either destroyed or reduced to nothing!
Under that terrifying shockwave, Chu Kuangren’s consciousness arrived at a white, empty space.
Inside that space, a man in royal robes was observing him.
That man was none other than King Zhou!
The scene of battle earlier was something that King Zhou wanted Chu Kuangren to see.
Instead of greeting him, Chu Kuangren remained silent. His consciousness was still deeply immersed in the process of comprehending the three slashes that King Zhou unleashed earlier.
Those three slashes were definitely the most powerful Sword Dao technique he had ever seen.
It was many times stronger compared to the Xuanyuan Sword qi earlier.
King Zhou did not disturb Chu Kuangren as the latter comprehended the Blade of Zhou technique. He merely stood there and watched silently.
Three days later, Chu Kuangren woke up from his state of comprehension.
He made a sword hand sign and unleashed a slash into the void, where a violent qi appeared. That was the Blade of Zhou’s First Form, Berserking Torment!
King Zhou was amazed.
“This person’s level of cognizance is truly inhuman. I can’t believe he only took three days to learn the Blade of Zhou’s First Form. This level of understanding is certainly among the best in history, and only a handful of people could ever compare to that.”
Even when King Zhou’s best descendant, under King Zhou’s guidance, took several years and barely grasped the Blade of Zhou’s First Form.
Just when King Zhou was about to praise Chu Kuangren, the latter did something again.
After unleashing the violent slash, Chu Kuangren unleashed another slash with his sword hand sign into the void.
His sword qi shot across the air while emanating an endless tyrannical aura, seemingly forcing all beings in the world to submit to its power.
That was the Blade of Zhou’s Second Form, Tyrannical Ascension!
However, that was not the end of it.
Chu Kuangren’s eyes lit up with determination. His sword hand sign moved as he unleashed another slash again. This time, a crimson sword ray was unleashed into the void, destroying everything and everyone’s Dao in its path.
That was the Blade of Zhou’s Third Form, Infinite Void!
Berserking Torment, Tyrannical Ascension, and Infinite Void were all three forms in the Blade of Zhou technique!
Chu Kuangren had mastered all three of them in a matter of three days. Although he still could not unleash the full power of those techniques due to his cultivation, his level of mastery was already almost on par with King Zhou’s.
King Zhou could not believe his eyes as he watched the scene unfold.
‘What kind of monster is he?’
‘Is he really human?’
After all, the Blade of Zhou technique he created was not some cheap parlor trick. It was the ultimate implementation and proof of his sovereignty, an Embodier Technique!
The Embodier Technique was dozens of times stronger than an Arch Gilded Technique!
‘Mastering an Embodier Technique in three days… Is that really possible?’
“Greetings, King Zhou of the past.”
Chu Kuangren chuckled as he looked at King Zhou.
“Cultivator of the future, you’re a very remarkable person.”
King Zhou had just barely recovered from his shock.
“Honorable King Zhou, am I worthy to inherit your legacy?”
“You are the first human ever to step foot into the Ancient Heavenly Yokai Cave. You, are worthy.”
“It will be my honor. However, I have a question. Everyone in this world said that Yokai Concubine, Daji, sowed chaos throughout the Yin Shang Dynasty and that she caused the decline of the dynasty in the end. If that’s the case, why is your inheritance here?”
“Ha! Daji plunging my kingdom into chaos? Ha, do I really look like a fool who’s blinded by lust? That story about the Yokai Concubine ruining my kingdom is only but a narrative created by the victors of that war. Daji is not to blame for the downfall of my dynasty. Instead… it was something on a greater scale!” King Zhou shook his head helplessly.
“During that time, the Immortal Hall had just been established. Seeking new blood to fill their ranks, they instigated what was later known as the Great Deification Calamity, with the kingdoms of Yin Shang and Zhou as the main battlefield. Cultivators and orthodoxies from all over the world were caught in that great battle. All the cultivators who fell in battle were all absorbed into the Deification Tablet and turned into the Immortal Hall’s True Gods. Once that happened, they were removed from the cycle of reincarnation to serve the Immortal Hall forever.”
“Besides that, the Great Deification Calamity also sparked the end of the Human Emperors’ line of succession. It was the reason why later generations of humanity rulers were no longer called Human Emperors, but Heavenly Child, the child of the heavens instead. Heavenly Child Zou was the first to become the Heavenly Child after that great war. However, this meant that the Human Emperor had lost its equal status with the heavens. That battle ended up establishing Immortal Hall’s prestige and allowing them to recruit more manpower to serve them, hence reducing the population of humans to ensure that the Human Emperor’s title would not return to its former glory. This resulted in a never-ending cycle of the Immortal Hall increasing its influence and ranks all over the world. It was a tremendous victory for the Immortal Hall.”
“As for me, I’m King Zhou, the last Human Emperor!”
