Chapter 1558
1558 Together? One Finger Blocked The Bull Demon, Anymore?
“Who dares to deny the Hundred Academy from getting the treasures?”
Chu Kuangren’s voice sounded as he came walking on air. Immortal Sparks circulated around him as his domineering aura swept across the area.
Yu Xiao, the Eastern Sky Divine Daoist, and the others were shocked. A hint of reverence appeared in their eyes.
“Chu Kuangren! He’s here!”
!!
“He’s back from the Underworld!”
Some of the Prodigies with a more efficient intelligence network knew that he went to the Underworld.
They thought he would not be able to make it back to the Chaos Fragment, but it seemed like he came back just in time.
In fact, his timely arrival prevented the two from the Hundred Academy from being bullied.
“So he’s Chu Kuangren?”
Compared to Yu Xiao and the others who were afraid of Chu Kuangren, the Green-Eyed Bull Demon looked eager and excited to fight.
He had just come out from the Subspecies Restricted Area a while ago, and that would be his first meeting with Chu Kuangren. Although it was their first meeting, he had heard a lot about Chu Kuangren.
There was one phrase that left a strong impression on him: the madman who overpowered the universe!
He wanted to see what made Chu Kuangren so capable that he was labeled as such.
“You must pay for bullying the Hundred Academy. I’m taking the Immortal Apricot and the treasures you offered,” Chu Kuangren said indubitably.
Yu Xiao’s expression changed. He said, “Chu Kuangren, you really think I’m the old me who lost to you at the Interstellar Arena?”
“Well, you seem not so different from before.”
“I heard you challenged the entire Immortal World a year back. You’re still as arrogant as ever.”
Yu Xiao then looked at Eastern Sky Divine Daoist and the others and said, “Guys, help me get the Immortal Apricot, and I will reward you with more treasures!”
He knew he was no match for Chu Kuangren alone, so he wanted to drag the Eastern Sky Divine Daoist and the others into the fray.
The option seemed entirely viable, at least to him.
Chu Kuangren had always been arrogant, and all the sky-prides and Prodigies viewed him as a thorn in their flesh. If there was a chance for them to team up against him, they would be more likely to take it.
Moreover, Yu Xiao also promised an additional reward.
Unfortunately, the moment he voiced his offer, no sky-pride or Prodigies dared to answer him.
Some of them even took a few steps back.
Team up against Chu Kuangren? What a joke!
None of them had a death wish.
They were all there when Chu Kuangren challenged the world, and his invincible power swept everyone away. No one was able to stop him!
Yu Xiao had the nerves to challenge him because he had been inside the Restricted Area for decades and had not seen the horror at Five Ways Mountain.
“What’s wrong? Are you all afraid of him?” Yu Xiao furrowed his brows. The outcome did not meet his expectation and somehow fueled his anxiety instead.
“Too bad. If you can do something about Chu Kuangren, I would join you,” the Eastern Sky Divine Daoist said with a pitiful sigh. Then, he quickly hid his presence in the void and disappeared.
He did not attack Chu Kuangren, but due to the grudge between the Immortal Hall and Chu Kuangren, he was not in a position to appear before the monster unprepared.
Zhuanxu’s successor glanced at Yu Xiao pitifully as if he was looking at a dead person.
“Yu Xiao, enough talk. They are all cowards! I don’t want to team up with them even if I have the chance,” the Green-Eyed Bull Demon bellowed.
A terrifying energy presence erupted from his body.
With a step forward, he appeared before Chu Kuangren with a clenched fist. A rampant qi and blood energy exploded as he threw the punch forward.
“Eat this!”
It was the power of his physical body, and it already contained the power close to an Arch Gilded intent!
His punch was almost impossible to block for those Gilded Immortals, but it was weak to Chu Kuangren.
“Huh?!”
The Green-Eyed Bull Demon felt something stopping his punch. When he had a closer look, his green eyes shrank in fear.
A slender and fair finger landed on his punch and stopped his rampaging fist! No matter how hard he tried, he could not push it any further!
“Impossible! He blocked my punch with a finger?!”
More importantly, the Green-Eyed Bull Demon could sense that Chu Kuangren did not use any of his Immortal’s Core energy! He simply blocked the punch with his raw physical strength!
Fighting the Green-Eyed Bull Demon with one’s raw physical strength was probably one of the most outrageous things.
Everyone knew that the Green-Eyed Bull Demon possessed one of the strongest, if not the strongest, raw physical strengths among the Yokai Tribe.
A weak human blocked the Green-Eyed Bull Demon’s punch using only a finger?
It sounded impossible and unimaginable, but it happened right before everyone’s eyes.
It shattered the Green-Eyed Bull Demon’s comprehension of strength.
“So, is this the raw physical strength of the Green-Eyed Bull Demon? It’s a little disappointing, to be honest,” Chu Kuangren said as he flicked his finger.
Bang!
The Green-Eyed Bull Demon felt like he was hit by a massive planet. His bones trembled, and he was sent flying backward with his arms shaking violently.
“What is his body made of? Is it made of Immortal Metals like those guys from the Heavenly Spirit Restricted Area?!”
The Green-Eyed Bull Demon looked at Chu Kuangren in fear.
“Don’t hold back! Give it your best!” Yu Xiao bellowed.
He then blasted a sliver of black flames at Chu Kuangren.
The flames felt like they could scorch the heavens and turn earth into purgatory!
It was the Nether Flame from hell!
Bang!
Chu Kuangren stood firm on his spot and allowed the flame to engulf him whole.
In a blink of an eye, the Nether Flame successfully swallowed him entirely and started burning his body.
The flame rampantly attacked every follicle on Chu Kuangren’s skin as if it was trying to burn him from the inside out!
“Fool! You didn’t dodge the Nether Flame?!” Yu Xiao cackled with laughter. He simply assumed Chu Kuangren’s arrogance had gotten him killed.
However, what happened next stunned him.
Chu Kuangren took a deep breath and sucked in all the Nether Flame like a whale consuming water.
“What?!” Yu Xiao was dumbfounded, and so were the others.
Yu Xiao’s Nether Flame was terrifying. Those who had not fought him before might not know its power, but judging from the energy alone, it was definitely something terrifying.
The Nether Flame was the embodiment of calamity and disaster! It was the flame that only existed in hell!
Yet, Chu Kuangren sucked them all into his body.
“Any more?” Chu Kuangren asked.
All of them were at a loss for words. Chu Kuangren had sucked in all the flames as if he was drinking water.
“Die! Chu Kuangren!”
Infuriated, Yu Xiao channeled his Nether Flame to the limit and blasted it at Chu Kuangren.
It left a trail of scorched Chaos qi in its wake, but Chu Kuangren remained unmoved.
He opened his mouth and sucked in all the flames again!
That was when the crowd saw some mystical Daoist patterns flash on his body.
