Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws - Chapter 657
Chapter 657: Meeting the Group of Emperors, a Cataclysmic Event That’s Been Going on for the Past Twelve Eras
After connecting her head back, Empress Luo Shui’s eyes opened fiercely, and an indescribable surge of Emperor’s Aura spread in all directions.
Chu Kuangren had to channel his Emperor qi to block off her Emperor’s Aura.
Empress Luo Shui then shot a glance towards Chu Kuangren.
Just when he was about to say something, she raised her hand and tore open a spatial rift within the void before disappearing in it.
“She’s leaving so soon, huh?”
Chu Kuangren shook his head in frustration. Upon further thought, he suspected that she might have gone somewhere to recover her full strength.
“Guess I’ll have to pass her the Chaos Emperor Scripture in the future then.”
Chu Kuangren mumbled.
The Emperor Scripture he referred to was the one that the Chaos Daoist Celestial had personally written. He was the one who entrusted Chu Kuangren to pass it to Empress Luo Shui.
Nevertheless, this was fine too. Since the Chaos Emperor Scripture contained profound insights, he could take the chance to learn from it while he still had it in his possession.
After settling matters with Empress Luo Shui, Chu Kuangren returned to the Black Heaven Sect and went into closed-door meditation to gain insights into the Chaos Emperor Scripture.
As the author of that Emperor Scripture, the Chaos Daoist Celestial was an Emperor with a deep understanding of the Dao. Despite how knowledgeable Chu Kuangren already was, he still learned a lot from it and gradually perfected his Dao in the process.
The Chaos Daoist Celestial once said that without a great Opportunity of Fortune, it would be incredibly difficult for an Emperor to increase the quality of their Dao.
However, that only applied to ordinary Emperors.
He did not know how terrifying Chu Kuangren’s rate of cognizance was. That was why Chu Kuangren could succeed in doing things deemed impossible to achieve.
For instance, studying the Chaos Emperor Scripture had given Chu Kuangren a lot of insights and experiences. Even his Invincible Dao had improved a little.
Besides that, his Esoteric Technique had improved too.
The quality of a cultivator’s Esoteric Art could be split into different grades.
Similar to the Emperor’s Core, there was Low-grade, Middle-grade, High-grade, Superb-grade, and Prominent-grade quality of Estoric Art. Before this, Chu Kuangren’s Invincible Technique was at Low-grade, but now, it had attained the level of High-grade.
A High-grade Esoteric Art.
Even the Heavenly Imperials would not necessarily possess such power.
“Judging by the time, it’s time to head to the Great Frost Dragon Mountain.”
Chu Kuangren mumbled.
…
The Great Frost Dragon Mountain, one of the Ten Great Forbidden Areas.
Before entering Emperor Road, Chu Kuangren had come to this place to have a mental spar with the Boundary Emperors.
Hence, he was quite familiar with the place.
The Great Frost Dragon Mountain was a place covered in snow all year round. It would snow for at least three hundred days every year. The mountain terrain was undulating, possessing the appearance of a dragon soaring in the sky.
That was why it was named the Great Frost Dragon Mountain.
On the tallest peak of the Great Frost Dragon Mountain, a magnificent palace made of ice stood tall from the ground.
Chu Kuangren, Lan Yu, Leng Ningyu, and Murong Xuan arrived at the main gate of the palace. Zi Wuji, who arrived around the same time as them, was there too.
He immediately greeted Chu Kuangren upon seeing him.
“Greetings, Brother Chu.”
“It’s alright, Brother Zi. No need to be so formal around me.”
Chu Kuangren chuckled.
He could tell that Zi Wuji was still very cautious around him.
It seemed like he still had not recovered from the trauma of witnessing Chu Kuangren killing four new Emperors effortlessly on Emperor Mountain.
Even the heavens would weep for someone like Zi Wuji. Becoming an Emperor was his greatest pursuit in life as he thought that he would have nothing to fear and worry about once he achieved that; from then on, he would be free.
However, never did he expect his fellow Emperors, who were stronger than him like Qin Tianchen would be slaughtered by Chu Kuangren one after another as if they were mere livestock.
He was shaken by that incident ever since.
Even now that he thought about it, there was still a lingering fear in him.
If he had attacked Lan Yu, Murong Xuan, and Leng Ningyu back then, there would have been another dead body at the Emperor Mountain’s peak that day.
Creak…
At this moment, the great palace gates opened.
A surge of freezing qi gushed out from it.
“Enter.”
A looming voice echoed.
Chu Kuangren and the others walked inside, eventually arriving at a great hall.
A group of Emperors was already gathered there.
The sight stunned Zi Wuji. After all, each Emperor was a veteran who possessed a deep background and was much more powerful than him.
“You guys are finally here.”
Leng Xin walked up and welcomed the five of them.
“We’re here, my dear senior. Do you have anything you need us to do?” Leng Ningyu said as she bowed to Leng Xin.
“Oh, just relax. There’s no need for formalities here. And also, you can speak to me as equals. We are Emperors after all.” Leng Xin chuckled.
She then said, “Why don’t you guys find a place to sit?”
Chu Kuangren and the others soon sat down.
At the same time, everyone was secretly checking out the veteran Emperors around them while the latter was looking at them curiously too.
After all, it had been a long time since there were new additions among the Emperors.
“So these are the new Emperors? Why are there only five of them? I recall the Emperor Mountain producing nine Emperor Thrones this time. Where’s the rest of them?”
“According to Qin Yu, they were killed by one of them.”
“Which one?”
“There, the new Emperor dressed in white that looks like an Immortal. Word of advice, don’t underestimate him. There’s more than meets the eye about this person.”
“Yeah, I’ve heard about him too. When the Underworld Demonic Realm was attempting to invade the Firmament Star, it was him who stopped them.”
The curious gazes of the veteran Emperors landed on Chu Kuangren.
On the other hand, Chu Kuangren had already activated his Eye of Revelation and thoroughly analyzed everyone’s information, one by one.
The result disappointed him a little.
In the past, the Divine Predictor had shown him the recording of a group of Emperors thanking him for stopping the demonic invasion. He realized none of those Emperors back then were present.
It was clear that the Emperors around him were only a small group of them.
Not only that, but these Emperors were not that powerful either, with the strongest among them being a Perfected Initial Emperor.
Not even a Heavenly Imperial was present, let alone the Daoist Celestials, who were the strongest Emperors.
Besides this, Chu Kuangren noticed that an Emperor with golden scales on his forehead was constantly glaring at him with seemingly hostile intentions.
That person was from the Scaled Tribe, and his name was Bei Ming Xuanse.
“An Emperor from the Scaled Tribe, huh? I hope you’re not up to no good…”
Chu Kuangren placed his hand on the Descendant Self Sword’s pommel and said.
“Everyone, apologies for making you wait.”
At this time, a voice rang out.
That was when a man and a woman walked in.
This man was handsome, had long black hair, and was wearing a white brocade robe. The woman next to him appeared graceful and aristocratic, with faint freezing qi similar to this snow palace’s aura swirling around her body.
“Great Emperor Huaxing, Rank Nine Initial Emperor…”
“Great Emperor Han Yu, Rank Seven Initial Emperor…”
Chu Kuangren’s Eye of Revelation revealed both of their information to him.
Both of them were Perfected Initial Emperors. Great Emperor Huaxing, who was a Rank Nine Initial Emperor, was especially the strongest among everyone here.
Moreover, both of them were quite intimate with each other, like they were a couple.
“Greetings, Great Emperor Hua Xing.”
Everyone got up and bowed upon seeing the arrival of the two Emperors.
Great Emperor Hua Xing smiled and nodded in response.
After that, he sat down in the main seat of the great hall and looked at Chu Kuangren and others with a smile. “So, you guys are the new generation of Emperors in this era. I know all of you have a lot of questions. Speak forth, and I shall answer them one by one.”
“Why was there no existence of the Emperors in Firmament Star before this?”
Zi Wuji was the first to ask.
“With the Heavenly Dao incomplete, we couldn’t use our power within the bounds of the Firmament Star. Even in the Nine Heavens, we were subjected to many restrictions.”
“What about now?”
“The Heavenly Dao has been restored.”
“What’s the Extraterritorial Battlefield?”
It was not Zi Wuji who asked this.
Instead, it was Chu Kuangren.
Everyone’s expression turned grim upon hearing those two words. However, Great Emperor Hua Xing answered, “This is the most important thing that I will tell you today. At this very moment, our Firmament Star is facing a cataclysmic event, one that started ever since the archaic ancient times. It’s a cataclysmic event that’s been going on for the past twelve eras!”
