Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws - Chapter 321
Chapter 321: Killing Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang, Extremely Unreasonable, Returning Home
Chu Kuangren walked out of the pavilion. Outside, Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang and a crowd of elders, as well as Sages looked at him in amazement.
They were extremely shocked by the fact that Chu Kuangren had managed to gain insights into the Heart Piercing Finger Technique. Though the Sages felt even more distressed.
After all, that was an Emperor Technique!
It was just handed over to someone on a silver platter!
“Um, Sect Leader Chu, how did you manage to understand and learn that Emperor Technique?” A Sage could not help but ask.
He was just too curious.
‘No one from the Sky Emperor Palace has been able to comprehend the profound contents of that scroll, so how did Chu Kuangren achieve that?’
“If I want to gain insights on something, it’ll surely happen.”
Chu Kuangren replied, and his gaze immediately shot towards Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang.
Without another word, a clang was heard as the sword at his waist unsheathed itself. It released an incomparably frightening sword ray that was imbued with an Emperor Aura!
The strength of that sword attack was unmatched!
It was an Emperor Technique, the Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique!
“What!”
Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang’s expression suddenly turned horrified. Never in a million years did he expect Chu Kuangren to do as he said!
Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang exerted his full strength as he raised his arms to block that attack!
However, the terrifying sword ray was coming at him at lightning speed, and with the help of the Descendant Self Sword, even Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang was instantly and critically injured.
The sudden turn of events shocked the other two Sages, and they glared at Chu Kuangren.
“Chu Kuangren, what is the meaning of this!”
“D*mn it!”
Ignoring them, Chu Kuangren deployed his Sage Rule Technique, the Phantom Light Strike before arriving in front of Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang.
With a lift of his hand, a vast Buddhist Light emanated to form a great golden palm which crashed the Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang down into the ground!
The terrifying amount of energy shook the entire Sky Emperor Palace, and the ground had been smashed into a huge crater.
Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang was lying at the center of the crater, spewing blood non-stop.
“You— What the hell are you doing?”
As frightening surges of sword Dao aura emanated from Chu Kuangren, he asked indifferently, “I suppose you’re very familiar with the strangeness in that scroll, right? Did you think I couldn’t see through that little scheme of yours?”
“I’ve already placed a warning on the scroll which clearly states that it’s a forbidden technique.”
“Heh, you mean the two plain strips of paper?”
Chu Kuangren grinned. “Do you think that you can get away with that little scheme you have against me with two mere strips of plain paper?”
“Besides colluding with the First City to target my Black Heaven Sect, now you’ve gone and played these tricks on me again. Cultivating to the level of a Sage is no small feat, yet time and time again, you’ve been looking for death. I’m afraid the heavens won’t be able to save you now.”
At that, Chu Kuangren unleashed another slash with his Descendant Self Sword, which instantly enveloped Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang with a terrifying and violent surge of sword qi!
His Sage body was immediately torn apart by the sword qi!
Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang was dead!
“How dare you! Chu Kuangren!”
“D*mn it!”
The expression on the other two Sky Emperor Palace Sages’ faces shifted as they roared angrily, unleashing a punch and palm attack respectively.
The violent energy in the attack was on the level of a Seven-Step Sage!
However, blood-colored flames began to emerge on Chu Kuangren’s body, activating the technique that was deemed forbidden by countless cultivators, the Nine Deaths Blazing Blood Art!
He then unleashed another slash in retaliation, where a vast sword ray erupted and shattered both the punch and palm attacks. The two Sages were blasted tens of meters back!
Both of them looked at Chu Kuangren with horror.
Despite coming together as Seven-Step Sages, they were both forced back by Chu Kuangren’s single sword attack!
What horrifying combat strength was that?
“Chu Kuangren, why did you kill Sage Zhang?”
One of the Sages questioned angrily.
“I’ll be the one asking the questions first. So, if someone other than me were to attempt gaining insights from that scroll, what will happen to them?” Chu Kuangren asked emotionlessly.
Both of their expressions turned grim.
They were well aware of the strangeness contained in that scroll.
At best, one would end up mad, or at worst, they would die of mental exhaustion.
Chu Kuangren chuckled upon seeing both the Sages’ expressions. “It seems that you two know about it as well. For plotting against me like that and the incident during the championship, don’t you think he deserves to be killed after messing with me so many times?”
He was fully capable of killing Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang at the battle in the First City back then.
No.
If he were to go all out, he could surely kill all the Sages who took part and joined forces to go against him.
The only catch was that, besides the few Sages who were at the scene that day, there were also Sages from other orthodoxies present who did not take part in the battle too. Moreover, there were Lan Yu, Nangong Huang, and the others who were at the First City as well. That was why he held back during that fight.
However, now that Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang had messed with him again, his name would not be Chu Kuangren if he did not get rid of that person.
“But it was clearly stated on the scroll that it’s a forbidden technique. Are you going to blame us even if you’re the one who wanted to read it in the first place?”
One of the Sages uttered angrily.
“Then I suppose you two should be grateful for those two little pieces of paper. If it were not for that, both of you won’t be alive right now.”
Chu Kuangren sneered. Since there were no restrictions nor barrier seals placed on the two pieces of paper, they were clearly fakes used to trick him.
The two Sages were stunned.
‘How does such an unreasonable person like him exist in this world?’
‘Why is there such an unbridled person?’
“Chu Kuangren, god forbid that with your continuous killing, you shall suffer and regret when the retribution of karma rains down upon you one day.”
The other Sage was so enraged that he was trembling all over.
Chu Kuangren chuckled and said, “Karmic retribution? Alright, since we’re talking about cause and effect here, then let me fill you in on something. Because Sage Zhang has a deep obsession with living his life on the edge, the act of him plotting and scheming against me can be considered a ’cause’, and the act of me killing him is considered the ‘effect’. So there you have it. What other karmic retributions am I to suffer from now?”
“So what if karmic retribution were to fall upon me?”
“If the heavens get in my way, then I shall turn against the heavens!”
After that, Chu Kuangren turned and left.
The two Sages could not do anything other than watch his receding figure.
Should they kill him?
They were no match for him though.
Should they reason with him then?
Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang was at fault.
“Sage Zhang, oh, Sage Zhang. If you knew something like this was going to happen, why did you do it? The person you’ve pissed off can’t even be reasoned with common sense at all!”
Ordinary methods were completely useless with Chu Kuangren!
The Sky Emperor Palace Lord looked at Chu Kuangren, helpless.
What happened to visiting them to go through their cultivation techniques?
Why was another Sage killed?
If he knew this was going to happen, he would have brought all their cultivation techniques over to where Chu Kuangren was, rather than having Chu Kuangren step foot in his Sky Emperor Palace!
Sure enough, wherever Chu Kuangren went, he would always turn the place upside down!
…
Chu Kuangren returned to the Illusive Mirage.
Lan Yu and the others had been waiting for him for a long time by then.
“Sect Leader, we’ve received word from Elder Ruyan just now. She wants you back as soon as possible to discuss the unnamed island.”
Nangong Huang said.
Chu Kuangren was slightly surprised. “What island?”
Having been focused on comprehending the Heart Piercing Finger Technique, he was completely unaware that the appearance of an unnamed island had caused a great stir throughout the whole Firmament Star.
Nangong Huang then briefly explained everything to him.
“Oh, something like that happened at the Outer Seas, huh?”
Chu Kuangren was a little interested, so he set a course on the Illusive Mirage back to the Black Heaven Sect. The moment he returned, Elder Ruyan and the others immediately approached him.
“Sect Leader, news of your riot in the First City has already spread through the whole Firmament Star, why is there always trouble wherever you go?”
Elder Ruyan asked frustratingly.
“Is that my fault? They’re the ones who saught trouble with us first.”
Chu Kuangren replied innocently.
The only principle he lived by as a person was that if people did not mess with him, then he would not mess with them too. If the First City had not sought trouble from him, then he would do the same to them as well.
“Haha, our Sect Leader is right. Elder Ruyan, if someone were to be blamed for this matter, it’s the Sky Emperor Palace and First City.”
An elder laughed.
Elder Ruyan shook her head. “I’m not blaming the Sect Leader for this either. Alright, let’s talk about the unnamed island first.”
