Chapter 1848
1848 Kill Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist, The Strong Are Always Alone
Chu Kuangren approached the Emperor Tower and put his hand on it.
Upon touching it, the tower trembled.
It started to crumble into countless Daoist laws and flew into Chu Kuangren’s body. The Daoist laws then formed a mini version of the tower inside him, which allowed him to refine it at any time.
Just when he wanted to absorb the tower, he suddenly felt a rampaging energy storm targeting him from the back.
The energy was domineering and unmatched.
!!
“A familiar aura…”
When Chu Kuangren sensed that familiar aura, his lips curled into a smile.
He then turned around, and with a swing of his sleeve, his sword qi erupted.
A golden palm was destroyed by the gush of sword qi.
Amidst the Immortal Sparks that scattered upon impact, a figure emerged.
It was the Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist.
“It’s really him,” Chu Kuangren said to himself.
Further away, Di Yunliu and the others were surprised by the Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist’s appearance, but they did not interfere.
To them, even though Chu Kuangren had the Fully-Realized Emperor Physique, he was an outsider.
The Emperor Tribe had a grudge against Chu Kuangren, so they were more than happy to see someone else going after him, even if they were from the same universe.
Why would they stop the Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist?
“I knew it. This person is not on good terms with the others from the Emperor Tribe. They didn’t stop me when I tried to attack him,” the Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist thought.
Then, he looked at Chu Kuangren. Judging from how fast the reaction was, he knew he was facing someone powerful, probably the most powerful person he had ever seen in his life.
‘Hmph. If I have the guts to fight Chu Kuangren, why would I be afraid of you?!’ the Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist thought.
He decided to make it quick. While Chu Kuangren was absorbing the tower, he attacked again with his full power.
“Emperor Sky-Shadowing Palm!”
The massive palm, as big as the sky, crashed down.
Chu Kuangren, however, remained still. He simply pointed his sword hand sign upward and slashed at the void. He did not even use the Void Sword.
The Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist was blasted away by the sword qi, with blood gushing from his mouth.
“How is it possible? He’s absorbing the tower, yet he still has so much power! He easily broke through my ultimate move! He’s as strong as Chu Kuangren!”
The Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist was stunned.
He believed the Central Heaven Universe would not have a monster as strong as Chu Kuangren.
However, who would have thought that he would run into another?
“Emperor Avatar!”
The Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist channeled his ultimate Immortal Technique next.
His Arch Gilded Intent surged, golden Immortal Sparks flowed in the sky, and formed a gigantic golden Emperor Avatar.
The avatar threw a palm strike at Chu Kuangren.
Further away, Di Yunliu was shocked when he saw the Emperor Avatar. “His Arch Gilded Intent is similar to ours from the Emperor Tribe. No wonder he’s here trying to stop the Heavenly Sword from taking the Emperor Tower.”
Suddenly, he had the urge to intervene.
If he could team up with someone as strong as the Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist, would he be able to strike down the Heavenly Sword while he was absorbing the tower?
The more he thought about it, the more eager he got.
However, the rumors about Heavenly Sword flashed in his mind.
In the end, he suppressed the tempting thought.
He could not take the risk.
The Heavenly Sword was unpredictable, and not even the Temple Sequences were his match. Even if he teamed up with the Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist, they might not be able to kill the Heavenly Sword.
Once he failed, the Heavenly Sword would retaliate, and he would be the one to lose his life instead.
While Di Yunliu gave up on the thought, a sword intent erupted.
A sword shadow appeared in the sky, containing terrifying and domineering Emperor qi.
It was the Fully Realized Emperor Physique and Fully Realized Overlord Physique!
The two physiques were used together by infusing the Emperor Overlord qi into the sword qi.
The slash shook heaven and earth.
As the sword shadow struck downward, the Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist’s Emperor Avatar was torn in half like it was paper.
“How is this even possible?” the Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist shouted in fear.
How could another monstrous Prodigy like Chu Kuangren exist in another universe?
Without having been given any chance to resist the sword attack, the Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist failed to defend himself against the attack. As a result, his body burst into a cloud of blood mist.
The Prodigy who had escaped from Chu Kuangren multiple times finally died at the hands of another Chu Kuangren.
Di Yunliu’s forehead was drenched with sweat when he saw the scene.
Based on how powerful the slash looked, even if he teamed up with the Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist, they might not have been able to defend against it.
It meant he made the right choice of staying away. Unless he could team up with an Outlier or a God King intervened, no one would be able to defeat the Heavenly Sword.
The Emperor Tower was completely absorbed into Chu Kuangren’s body.
However, he did not refine it right away.
Since he was in the Void Battlefield, he ought to gather enough Opportunities of Fortune and resources first before refining all of them together to boost his comprehension of the Great Dao.
“It was a wise choice that you didn’t intervene just now,” Chu Kuangren said to Di Yunliu.
Di Yunliu was silenced.
Then, a figure arrived from afar.
It was a woman with beautiful looks and a slender body. She was surrounded by Immortal Sparks, and her body emanated a strong energy fluctuation.
She was like a storm that could destroy everything in its path.
“It’s the Eighth Seat of the Temple Sequence, Feng Qiyu!”
Someone recognized her.
Feng Qiyu was currently the Eighth Seat of the Temple Sequence and stronger than Di Yunliu.
When they saw her, everyone looked at her with a hint of respect. Only Chu Kuangren remained unfazed as he simply glanced at her.
“It was you, Heavenly Sword,” Feng Qiyu said with a smile.
She came because she noticed Chu Kuangren’s sword qi.
In fact, not only she but many other sky-prides and Prodigies on the continent noticed the sword qi.
“What’s the matter?” Chu Kuangren asked.
“Heavenly Sword, many Prodigies from Pan Gu Universe have gathered on this continent. I want you to lead us and eliminate them all,” Feng Qiyu stated her true intention.
Chu Kuangren was a little surprised.
Lead Central Heaven Universe’s Prodigies to attack Pan Gu Universe?
What a joke!
They should be grateful he did not sabotage their mission secretly.
“Only weaklings gather in groups. The strong are always alone. The Heavens don’t want to be part of your weakling game,” Chu Kuangren said.
Then, he turned around and left. After all, he still had to secretly protect Lan Yu and the others from the Central Heaven Universe.
‘It’s starting to get busy. When is the other me coming?’ he thought.
“Hmph! He’s nothing. He’s not even listed in the sequence. I wouldn’t want him to lead us,” said one of the Emperor Tribe Prodigies.
However, his eyes were overflowing with jealousy as he looked at Chu Kuangren’s back.
Even though Chu Kuangren was not listed in the sequence, his name was enough to gather an army in the Void Battlefield. He was as famous as, or more famous than, the other Seats.
“Feng Qiyu, since the Heavenly Sword refuses to lead us, why don’t you take the responsibility?” Di Yunliu suggested.
“I…” Feng Qiyu hesitated.
Suddenly, she sensed something and spotted a Daoist cultivator coming closer.
The man was in a set of golden robes, and his eyes contained endless divine light.
“I will lead this mission,” the man said.
All the Emperor Tribe Prodigies were in awe when they saw the person.
“Di Qianqiu!”
