Chapter 1766
1766 The Heavenly Sword Has Left, Happiness in the Air, Which One of Them Is the Real Heavenly Sword
“Is that the Heavenly Sword? Why is he heading in that direction? Is he leaving the temple?”
The Prodigy said as he looked in the direction Chu Kuangren was heading. He was taken aback for a while before he was overjoyed. “The Heavenly Sword has left the temple! He’s finally gone!”
The Heavenly Sword had left the temple!
News of that spread like wildfire in the Central Heaven Temple.
For a moment, it was as if the Central Heaven Temple was celebrating the coming of a new year. Everyone was thrilled to hear the news.
“This is splendid news. That troublemaker has finally left!”
“Haha, now that he’s left, it’s time for us to get stronger!”
As soon as Chu Kuangren left, rays of starlight fell from the Daoist law’s starry sky and manifested into a huge number of Daoist Law’s Pearls!
The number of pearls this time was far greater than any of the times before.
Upon seeing that, everyone became excited.
“Sure enough, the Heavenly Sword was the reason the Daoist Law’s Pearls were not released back then. Now that he has left, they’re finally appearing again.”
“Let’s go, everyone.”
“Stop snatching. These are mine!”
“How can you behave like the Heavenly Sword? What a fool. Let’s split this evenly”
Everyone started going for the Daoist Law’s Pearls. Due to the tremendous number of pearls that were released, everyone managed to get some for themselves, and they were all satisfied.
After all, there was nothing better than that.
After the release of the Daoist Law’s Pearls, a magnificent voice suddenly came from the starry sky above.
“The third and fourth Central Heaven Secret Realms will be opened today. Everyone is allowed to enter to seek out Opportunities of Fortune!”
The opening of the secret realms came as another great news.
“I, the Five Elemental God King, will be having a Daoist teaching tomorrow. Those interested are welcome to join me tomorrow.”
Another God King had spoken.
Everyone was jumping in excitement.
“Damn. Is today a great day for Opportunities of Fortune, or what? Daoist Law’s Pearls, the secret realms opening, and a God King is going to have a Daoist teaching!”
“Haha! Sure enough, with the Heavenly Sword gone, our future is much brighter!”
Sounds of laughter and joy reverberated throughout the whole Central Heaven Temple. Happiness was in the air.
On the Snowy Peak, Luo Xue also noticed the change in the Central Heaven Temple’s atmosphere. She could not help but sneer. “You guys have been afraid of the Heavenly Sword!”
On that day, with the Heavenly Sword leaving the temple, rays of starlight descended from the sky as Daoist Law’s Pearls, secret realms filled with treasures were opened, and God Kings started giving Daoist teachings. It was a wonderful time for everyone.
In an instant, the gloomy and depressed atmosphere of the temple disappeared!
After Chu Kuangren left the temple, he had a hunch. Hence, he turned around to look at the temple. “I’ll let you guys have fun for now.”
He thought to himself mischievously. What if he were to turn back and return now?
However, it was merely a thought. Currently, he was more interested in the Spiritual Sword Tribe’s matter.
He turned into a stream of sword ray and disappeared in a flash. Countless planets and suns passed him as he traveled at the speed of light.
With his current cultivation level, it would only take him one to two months, at most, to return to the Spiritual Sword Tribe at full speed.
Meanwhile, inside the Spiritual Sword Tribe, a young man dressed in black robes stood on the Thousand Sword Peak and looked into the distance.
He was standing there without releasing his aura. However, the surrounding swords had subconsciously retracted their sword qi, seemingly afraid they would anger that man.
“Heavenly Sword, we have sent the message to Chu Kuangren. He should be coming back soon.”
A young man came before the black-robed young man and spoke.
That young man was addressing him as the Heavenly Sword!
It was true! Another Heavenly Sword had appeared in the Spiritual Sword Tribe!
Perhaps that man was the actual person mentioned in the Spiritual Sword Tribe’s prophecy.
“Noted,” the Heavenly Sword, Gu Qingshan, said.
He looked at the surrounding swords and uttered. “Do you know there used to be a particular sword on the Thousand Sword Peak, known as the Void Sword?”
“Of course. The Void Sword is said to be the strongest sword ever since the universe’s creation!”
“That’s right. The Void Sword is the sword that rules above every other sword in the universe, and the Heavenly Sword should be the one to reign over every sword cultivator! That sword belongs to me!” Gu Qingshan said coldly.
A wisp of sword aura leaked out from his body, and that wisp alone made the young man beside Gu Qingshan feel intimidated.
‘The Heavenly Sword’s power is frightening!’
The young man narrowed his eyes and thought to himself. They were both Ancient Prodigies who went into a deep slumber in the Spiritual Sword Tribe. However, the gap in strength between him and the Heavenly Sword was significant!
“I don’t care who you are. I’ll definitely make you pay for stealing my sword and pretending to be the Heavenly Sword!”
A chilling sword ray shot out from Gu Qingshan’s eyes.
Somewhere in the distance, the Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader, Sword God King, Galaxy God King, and others gathered. All of them looked worried.
“Why has another Heavenly Sword appeared out of nowhere?” the Galaxy God King said with a frown.
“I don’t know. However, I’ve peered into Gu Qingshan’s path of destiny. Although I can’t see the whole picture, he is closely connected to the Spiritual Sword Tribe. Besides this, he has an astonishing aura hidden within him. Other than being the Heavenly Sword, he could be”
The Sword God King did not finish his sentence. However, both the Galaxy God King and the Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader knew what he was going to say.
“If that’s the case, wouldn’t this mean that Chu Kuang has been impersonating the Heavenly Sword all this time?” the Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader asked calmly.
He would never allow anyone to deceive him with the Spiritual Sword Tribe’s future!
Due to that, his impression of Chu Kuangren immediately took a dive.
The Sword God King glanced at him and said, “Chu Kuang did not claim to be the Heavenly Sword. It was us who allowed him to attempt and retrieve the Void Sword. When he finally succeeded in pulling that sword out, we were the ones who acknowledged him as the Heavenly Sword.”
The Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader was speechless.
Frankly speaking, that was exactly what happened.
“Anyway, this matter must reach a conclusion no matter what. We must find out which one of them is the real Heavenly Sword!”
Soon after, Chu Kuangren returned to the Spiritual Sword Tribe.
The Spiritual Sword Tribe cultivators had always looked up to him with high regard and respect. However, they were now welcoming him with concerned and conflicted gazes instead.
“Heavenly Sword!”
At that time, a person came before Chu Kuangren.
It was Chen Fei.
He was a Prodigy who once faced danger when exploring the Ancient Central Heaven Planet and was almost forced to give up his sword. However, it was Chu Kuangren who saved him in the end.
That was why even though everyone else in the Spiritual Sword Tribe had doubts about him, Chen Fei still treated him with utmost respect.
“What’s the matter?”
“Heavenly Sword, there has been a commotion in the Ancestral Lands. When the Prodigies in deep slumber woke up, someone among them proclaimed to be the Heavenly Sword!”
Chen Fei was also a little shocked.
Chu Kuangren’s eyes flickered. “Interesting.”
‘So, the Heavenly Sword really does exist in the Spiritual Sword Tribe, huh? Has the real deal appeared now?’
Then again, since Chu Kuangren had gotten used to using the Heavenly Sword’s identity for so long, there was no way he would return it so easily.
“I understand.”
Chu Kuangren nodded gently.
“The Tribe Leader and others are waiting for you at the Divine Sword Peak.”
“Alright.”
The Divine Sword Peak was the residence of the Sword God King.
When Chu Kuangren arrived, several bursts of aura swept out toward him!
Besides the Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader and others, there were also a few other Prodigies at the Divine Sword Peak.
An ancient aura was surging from their bodies. They were clearly the Prodigies who just awakened from their deep slumber.
“So, you’re the fake who’s been impersonating the Heavenly Sword?”
“Hmph, how dare you impersonate the Heavenly Sword! Do you know what a grave mistake you’ve made?!”
The Ancient Prodigies immediately questioned. As they glared at Chu Kuangren, their sword aura surged toward him mercilessly!
