Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws - Chapter 99
Chapter 99: Lin Batian’s Sacred Flames, A Sky-Pride From Thirty Thousand Years Ago
“Does anyone still have objections?”
Chu Kuangren said coldly.
After Chu Kuangren massacred the attacking cultivators, the entire scene went dead silent.
At that moment, a disruption could be felt between the dimensions as a few peak Battle Monarchies stared intently at Chu Kuangren.
“Don’t you think you’re too cruel and bloodthirsty? You killed others without uttering a single word, what difference does that make between you and a demonic cultivator?”
“Chu Kuangren, you’re too much!”
These Battle Monarchies were the Daoist Protectors of those sky-prides.
As the Daoist Protectors were all cultivators of Battle Monarch realms, it implied that the highest levels of reinforcement these sky-prides could access were the Honorable cultivators.
Chu Kuangren snarked. “Cruel? Let’s make it clear, it was they who made the first move and it was without any reservation. Do you expect me to just sit by?”
“If you’re unhappy with it, you’re also welcomed to try.”
Chu Kuangren was fearless in the face of these Battle Monarchies. Throughout his journey, many Battle Monarchies had fallen under his blade after all.
Although the expressions of the Battle Monarchies’ faces looked even more intense now, none dared to attack Chu Kuangren.
It was not Chu Kuangren they feared but the Daoist Protectors, that protected Chu Kuangren, were the ones whom they definitely could not defeat!
Daoist Protectors typically would not interfere in the affairs of the younger generations. However, as Daoist Protectors, if they made a move on Chu Kuangren, his Daoist Protectors would definitely not stand by and watch.
In fact, these Protectors were thinking ahead of themselves.
Even if they were to attack, Seventh Forefather and the rest would not retaliate either.
Chu Kuangren’s Daoist Protectors knew just how capable his ability was. If Chu Kuangren could defeat an Honorable, what more of just a few Battle Monarchies?
At last, the Daoist Protectors did not make a move at all.
“Chu Kuangren, you’re still your usual arrogant self.” At that moment, Lin Batian from Zhiyang Valley finally spoke with his expression a little cold.
Chu Kuangren took a quick peep at Lin Batian. Upon noticing his hair had now been dyed purple, Chu Kuangren asked in shock, “Yo, where did you dye your hair?”
“Hmph!”
Lin Batian grunted. His body was now radiating a terrifying wave of Daoist Rhymes which shocked the sky-prides at the scene.
Fangtian, Gu Changge, and others looked at Lin Batian incredulously.
“How did his Daoist Rhyme change so dramatically?!”
“Such a powerful aura, but what’s going on? How did he become so terrifying in such a short amount of time?”
“Such Daoist Rhymes might even be more powerful than an Honourable!”
Chu Kuangren laughed lightheartedly. “Looks like you’ve managed to pick up on some decent techniques since we last met a few days ago. No wonder you now have the confidence to face me.”
The Daoist symbols within his eyes began to spin as he activated the Remarkable Eye of Revelation.
“Lin Batian, Daoist of the Zhiyang Valley.”
“Mastered the Sacred Flame left by the founding forefather of Zhiyang Valley…”
Sacred Flame?
Was it a technique passed down by a sage?
Chu Kuangren laughed. “Come, let me witness how powerful your Sacred Flame is. Let’s see if it can leave a scratch on me!”
Lin Batian frowned, not knowing how Chu Kuangren had managed to find out about the Sacred Flame. However, he was already dying to fight Chu Kuangren at that point.
Soon, seven scorching flames of differing colors began to manifest on his body, with each flame carrying enough power to boil an entire sea.
“Chu Kuangren, I’ve endured the pain of a thousand fire, went through hell and back to finally earn the seven-colored Sacred Flames. Today, I shall let you taste its power!”
Lin Batian roared, and like shooting stars, the seven balls of flames were hurled towards Chu Kuangren. Wherever the ball of flames passed through, it curved the space and dimension around it.
Everyone could feel the devastation that the Sacred Flame would bring and so, they retreated hastily, in fear that they would be caught in the crossfire.
The Sacred Flame was a technique left behind by a sage, so it contained the Daoist Rhymes its predecessor. Even if Lin Batian did not have enough cultivation base to fully channel the technique, his current attack was enough to rival that of an Honourable!
Chu Kuangren lightly lifted his hands and a magnificent amount of power was instantly activated. The mythical Daoist Rhymes danced in the air as it transformed into a garden of white lotuses.
The white lotuses were elegant and delicate, and although they looked fragile from the outside, the Sacred Flames were incapable of getting past these flowers. In a blink of an eye, the Sacred Flames were soon extinguished into nothingness.
That phenomenon shocked many sky-prides.
“What technique is that? It’s capable of disintegrating his spiritual power.”
“How did he do that?!”
“It could even absorb the power of the Sacred Flames!”
The crowds were dumbfounded.
Amidst the crowd, the White Lotus Bachelor Sage gasped and said, “That’s the School of White Lotus’s Supreme Sage Ruler Technique… The White Lotus Light of Purification!”
The crowd was even more shocked.
Since when did Chu Kuangren acquire the School of White Lotus’s Sage Ruler Technique?
Why did none of the students in the School of White Lotus ever use this technique?
Was this why Chu Kuangren had become a Bachelor Sage at their school?
The White Lotus Bachelor Sage did not say much, but as he saw the white lotuses dancing around Chu Kuangren, he felt a deep-rooted instinct to bow down to Chu Kuangren.
It was a White Lotus disciple’s natural reaction towards the White Lotus Light of Purification!
As much as the Bachelor Sage disliked Chu Kuangren, he could not resist the instinct.
“Hmph, let’s see how long you can take it!” Lin Batian grunted and continued to attack Chu Kuangren by invoking his Sacred Flames.
No matter how he attacked, as long as the Sacred Flames reached within a hundred feet radius of Chu Kuangren, it would evaporate into nothingness. Chu Kuangren was left completely untouched and as time passed, Lin Batian began to panic.
How could it be?!
The Sacred Flames which Lin Batian had gone through hell to acquire did nothing to hurt Chu Kuangren!
Chu Kuangren’s strength was beyond what Lin Batian could even imagine!
“No, I don’t believe it!”
“I don’t believe that you’re actually infallible!” In a fit of rage, Lin Batian channeled all of his spiritual energy into the Sacred Flames.
Wild and destructive waves of Daoist Rhymes were immediately formed!
“Sage Technique, Heavenly Blaze of Destruction!” Lin Batian merged the surrounding Sacred Flames into one before he blasted it towards Chu Kuangren.
Finally, the attack was enough to trespass the hundred feet radius of Chu Kuangren!
A hundred feet, ninety feet…
However, the moment it crossed near-ninety feet of Chu Kuangren, the Sacred Flame was still extinguished.
Everyone, including Lin Batian himself, was stunned.
Despite channeling the entirety of his energy reserve, Lin Batian had managed to only advance ten feet. Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren had yet moved a single inch from his spot!
The gap in their abilities was so significant!
Lin Batian’s Daoist spirit trembled and his face soured as he stared at Chu Kuangren. At that point, he felt as if a mountain had been loaded on top of his chest as he gasped desperately for air.
He had thought that the Sacred Flame was enough to close the gap between him and Chu Kuangren. In fact, he had high hopes that it was enough for him to match Chu Kuangren’s abilities.
Alas, how did things turn out?
Chu Kuangren had utterly defeated him without having to move a single inch!
The gap in their abilities was enough to drive him to the brink of hopelessness!
However, Lin Batian was not the only one who was overwhelmed with a sense of hopelessness. The other sky-prides felt the same too.
“Now it’s my turn.” Chu Kuangren looked at Lin Batian and lifted his hand, sending a single ray of sword Qi towards him.
The purple sword ray charged violently towards Lin Batian, and despite him using his remaining strength to block the incoming attack, the impact still hurled him hundreds of feet away. The dispersed sword Qi even left dozens of deep wounds on Lin Batian’s body.
Lin Batian, defeated under a single strike!
Everyone was completely silent at that point.
Lin Batian had given it his all, but he still could not land a single scratch on Chu Kuangren who, with a lift of a hand, had dealt heavy damages on his opponent.
Lin Batian had completely lost in both offensive and defensive abilities!
It was unexplainable!
“Chu Kuangren, you’re indeed very strong.” At that moment, a light flashed across the crowd before it was in front of them.
That person was dressed in black clothes and he was radiating a mighty aura.
“It’s Ao Chang, the newly appointed Daoist of the Sacred Lands of Serene Wisdom!”
Someone in the crowd recognized that person.
Through the Remarkable Eyes of Revelation, even Chu Kuangren was a little surprised.
