Chapter 1700
1700 Three Items From the Treasury, Going Against the Heavens and Breaking the Heavenly Sword? It’s Obvious
Looking at all the treasures, Chu Kuangren told Lil Ai to analyze every one of them for him.
The abilities and descriptions of every single item soon appeared in his mind. Among them, he found a few items useful to him at his current level.
His gaze locked onto one of the items in no time.
That item was a drop of red-purple-colored Supreme Blood that emitted an extremely tyrannical aura. Even a Gilded Immortal would be instantly slammed into the ground if they stood too close to it.
!!
According to Lil Ai’s analysis, that was a drop of the Tyrant Overlord Blood!
There were a total of three thousand Daoist Physiques in the Central Heaven Universe, and one of them was known as the Tyrant Overlord Physique!
Together with the Emperor Tribe’s Innate Emperor Physique, those two were known as the Two Great Divine Physiques.
The drop of Supreme Blood before Chu Kuangren was left behind by a forefather from the Conqueror Tribe. According to legend, that forefather once reigned supreme throughout the Central Heaven Universe with a nearly Great Perfected Tyrant Overlord Physique. He dominated that whole era with his fearsome strength and was known as the Heavenly Overlord God King. That was the most glorious era in the history of the Conqueror Tribe.
Unfortunately, in his attempt to break through to the Primordial Realm, he was ambushed by three God Kings sent from the Emperor Tribe. That resulted in his death as he fought until his very last breath.
Before he died, his Supreme Blood was scattered throughout the universe.
The Galaxy God King just so happened to obtain one drop of his blood. Then, using a special technique to preserve the Supreme Blood’s power, the Galaxy God King kept it safe inside his treasury.
If any cultivator from the Conqueror Tribe were to obtain that Supreme Blood, their cultivation progress would surely skyrocket. They would also improve by leaps and bounds due to the great benefit provided by that Supreme Blood.
“With this Supreme Blood, I can analyze and reproduce the Tyrant Overlord Physique using the Tome of Physiques and then integrate it into my Ultimate Almighty Source Physique,” Chu Kuangren muttered as he took the Supreme Blood and kept it.
Then, his eyes were set on his next target, a white Immortal Fruit, which had several mysterious patterns on it, each containing a shockingly powerful energy fluctuation.
That item was known as the Divine Oceanic Immortal Fruit.
As its name implied, the Immortal Core Energy contained within it was as vast as the ocean!
Considering a single fruit was equivalent to a Twelfth-grade Immortal’s Core Flower, it would be a priceless item for every Arch Gilded Immortal.
“My Immortal’s Core Flower had surpassed its limit back when I was in the unknown void. If I can eat this Divine Oceanic Immortal Fruit, my Immortal’s Core Flower will surely advance several more grades beyond its current state!”
“How wonderful!”
Chu Kuangren took the Divine Oceanic Immortal Fruit and kept it away.
Finally, he chose a weird-looking ancient black ring made from a special material, and it exuded an ancient but simple aura.
“Analysis shows there’s a remnant soul fluctuation inside this ring.” Lil Ai’s voice rang inside his mind.
“Just like that bead earlier, it seems.” Chu Kuangren chuckled.
“Furthermore, there are many seals and restrictions placed on this ring. A special requirement would have to be fulfilled to unlock it.”
“Can you find out what the requirements are?”
“I can’t do so for the time being.”
It had only been a short time since Lil Ai connected to that universe’s Great Dao Consciousness. Hence, it would still need more time to sort through the knowledge and information in this entire universe.
Besides, that black ring did not seem like an ordinary ring, so it would be difficult for Lil Ai to figure out its secrets in such a short time.
“Whatever. This ring is quite interesting anyway. I shall take it.”
Chu Kuangren laughed.
He casually wore the ring on his finger.
After choosing three items, Chu Kuangren prepared to leave.
However, the moment he stepped out of the treasury, he noticed that Luo Xue was waiting for him.
Chu Kuangren frowned a little. That Prodigy, who was ranked eleventh on the Heavenly God Leaderboard, was acting a bit too enthusiastic toward him.
“I told you. You’ve cultivated your Sword Dao well. If you were to learn the Sword Dao technique from anyone else, it’ll only be counterproductive to your progress.”
“I understand.” Luo Xue nodded. “I shall keep the Heavenly Sword’s advice in mind. However, if the opportunity arises, I wish to spar with the Heavenly Sword to prove my very own Sword Dao.”
“Not everyone is fortunate enough to spar with the Heavens, you know.”
“I understand. That’s why I’ll work hard and wait for that day to come,” Luo Xue said with determination.
Her goal had always been to reach the pinnacle of Sword Dao, so she worked hard in her cultivation. However, she had no idea what the pinnacle of Sword Dao was. ‘What does the pinnacle of sword Dao look like? I have no idea at all. It just seems like an abstract concept to me.’
However, things changed after Chu Kuangren appeared.
With the Heavenly Sword’s presence, all swords in the universe would submit, for the Heavenly Sword transcended even the Heavens!
At that very moment, the legendary being whose stories were well-known by every sword cultivator for countless years was now standing before her. He was undoubtedly the real deal.
Ever since then, she had gotten a clearer idea of the peak of Sword Dao.
He, the Heavenly Sword, was the very pinnacle of Sword Dao itself!
As for Luo Xue, she now had a clearer goal to work toward!
“The Heavens express his admiration for your fighting spirit.”
Chu Kuangren nodded gently.
Just as the two of them left the treasury together, several strands of sword qi suddenly headed toward them at breakneck speed. That attack contained an unprecedented power!
“An ambush, huh? What a cheap trick!”
Chu Kuangren swung his sword hand sign in the air, casually unleashing a supreme sword technique!
His terrifying sword qi turned into a brilliant river of stars, instantly shattering the incoming sword qi!
Luo Xue was no ordinary cultivator either. Although she was surprised by the sudden incoming sword qi, she managed to react in time and blocked it with her long sword.
Boom!
The sword qi erupted. Luo Xue was not harmed but was pushed back several kilometers.
Upon coming into contact with that sword qi, she looked surprised. “This is… Chi Longying’s sword qi!”
Sure enough, standing on a nearby ancient planet, Chi Longying was holding his long crimson sword and staring coldly at Chu Kuangren.
Leng Wufeng and Mo Wuji were standing beside him too.
The Prodigies ranked ninth, twelfth, and thirteenth on the Heavenly God Leaderboard had joined forces to attack Chu Kuangren!
Many cultivators who had not left the Ancient Path were shocked by that lineup, and they quickly found a place to spectate that.
“I can’t believe we’re in for a good show.”
“That’s right. It looks like things are getting interesting.”
Luo Xue’s face sank. She looked at the three Prodigies far away and was about to go help Chu Kuangren.
However, countless runes suddenly lit up on the ground around Chu Kuangren, forming a gigantic formation barrier technique that enveloped him within. Luo Xue could not make it in time to enter that space.
Mo Wuji and the others were also inside that enchanted barrier.
Only then did Luo Xue finally understand that the several strands of sword qi earlier were to force her out from the formation. After all, the three Prodigies only wanted to deal with Chu Kuangren and did not want her to get involved.
Otherwise, the three-against-one battle would turn into a three-against-two battle.
With Luo Xue’s talents, she might even turn the tide on a battle that seemed like an easy win for the three.
“It looks like you guys can’t stand making your move on the Heavens.”
“Hmph. Since you keep referring to yourself as the Heavens, Heavenly Sword, the three of us will go against the Heavens and break the Heavenly Sword!”
Leng Wufeng snorted and raised his hand. An endless surge of freezing qi spread everywhere from him, instantly freezing the void within the vicinity.
His powers were far more terrifying compared to that of Leng Jiufeng.
Boom!
The freezing qi turned into a giant iceberg that fell from the sky, crashing toward Chu Kuangren!
“A useless technique!”
Chu Kuangren just stood still as a burst of sword qi erupted from his body!
A ray of sword qi shot across the iceberg, splitting it into two, causing both halves to miss Chu Kuangren. The icebergs flew by Chu Kuangren’s left and right, freezing the whole terrain as they landed.
Boom!
An overwhelming sword aura immediately filled the space in the barrier.
Standing with both hands behind his back, bright Immortal Sparks shone brilliantly from Chu Kuangren’s body. His poise of an Immortal King was extremely shocking. “Go against the Heavens and break the Heavenly Sword? It’s obvious to Heavens that you guys are too weak to do that!”
“Why don’t you come and find out?”
Leng Wufeng attacked again, unleashing an even more terrifying burst of freezing qi into the air. His freezing qi then formed into countless razor-sharp ice crystals.
The other two Prodigies also channeled their Immortal Core energy as they prepared to attack.
