Chapter 2092
2092 Radiant Church’s Helping Hand, Destiny’s Gate Overpowers Yu Yan
Outside Black Flame City, an army of Radiant Church cultivators gathered.
From common believers to Grand Priests and Bishops, all of them gathered in front of the city, with their vast Radiant energy lighting up the entire area.
The leader of the army was a Bishop named Liu Hu, a Grand Dao cultivator.
He was one of the strongest Bishops from the Radiant Church.
He stood high on the mountain and gazed deeply upon the city.
“Bishop Liu, it’s been a while. Why aren’t we sieging the city? If we drag this out, we will have to answer to the church leader,” said a Grand Priest.
Liu Hu chuckled. “Don’t worry. The church leader has contacted me. Help is coming, and this person is going to help us take down Black Flame City.”
The army doubted his words.
They failed to take down Black Flame City even with multiple Bishops teaming up, so who was so powerful for the church leader to send to help them?
“Judging from the time, help should be arriving soon,” Liu Hu said.
Then, a grand Radiant aura came from the clouds and formed a long path of light in the sky.
At the end of the path of light was a vague slender figure.
Equipped with silver armor and a spear, the figure rode a white pegasus, and her wavy blonde hair danced in the wind.
The army knelt sincerely on the ground when they saw the person, including Liu Hu and the other Bishops.
Zest shone in their eyes.
“I didn’t think it would be her! We’re going to win this!”
“Yeah! No matter how sturdy Black Flame City is, they won’t be able to withstand her power!”
…
Back in the city, Chu Kuangren followed Yu Yan deep underground.
A massive underground space appeared before him.
The underground space was covered with restriction runes, and terrifying Darkness energy filled the air.
In the center of the boundless darkness was a floating white cube.
The cube had mystical runes carved on it, and the surrounding Darkness energy was just a sliver of energy that the cube released.
Strangely, Chu Kuangren could sense a mystical surge of Radiant energy from the cube.
Darkness and Radiant, both energies seemed to coexist in the cube.
“So, is this the Doomsday Darkness?”
“Yes. A part of it.” Yu Yan looked at the cube fervently.
He had been studying the Doomsday Darkness for years.
He managed to get a hold of a particular secret revealing that the Dark Demonic Ruler’s power was related to the Doomsday Darkness.
It was not too exaggerated to say that the Doomsday Darkness created the Dark Demonic Ruler, which explained Yu Yan’s zeal.
If the Doomsday Darkness could create someone like the Dark Demonic Ruler, it could do the same to him!
“If I can get the power, I will be the next Dark Demonic Ruler and rule the Darkness Tribe!” Yu Yan thought to himself.
He then looked at Chu Kuangren with similar zest. “Now, please give me the Ruler Amulet and allow me to retrieve the energy.”
“If I hand you the amulet, you will use it as a vessel to absorb the Doomsday Darkness energy, and then what? How are you going to use the power?”
“I have my own plans for that.”
“Why don’t I spell it out for you? You’re going to use the amulet to absorb the Doomsday Darkness energy and then kill me. After that, you can use the amulet that contains the energy for refinement. Am I right?” Chu Kuangren said with a smile.
Yu Yan was silenced for a moment before he cackled. “Chu Kuangren, you are smart. If you know what I’m going to do, why follow me down here?”
“Because I’m interested in this power as well,” Chu Kuangren said as he stared at the Doomsday Darkness.
The Great Hongmeng Universe was flooding with elites, and he was in dire need of rapid growth. He had to secure as many resources as he could and as fast as possible.
The Doomsday Darkness was a decent source. If he could absorb it, it might be useful.
“An Embodier eyeing over the grand power of the Doomsday Darkness? How bold of you, Chu Kuangren!” Yu Yan scoffed.
With that, he attacked.
He pointed at Chu Kuangren, firing a domineering blast of black flame from his finger.
His attack sealed the entire underground space.
The Grand Dao energy was strong enough to suffocate a Primordial.
Chu Kuangren drew the Descendant Self Sword and used the power of three thousand Daoist laws.
“Bang!”
A huge explosion went off in the underground space.
As the dust storm whirred, Chu Kuangren was blasted away.
Yu Yan stood proudly and coldly. “Chu Kuangren, you’re not even Jiu Yin’s match, and I’m stronger than him. How are you going to fight me?
“Jiu Yin? He’s lucky. If I didn’t plan to take you on first, he would already be a dead snake.”
“You’re really arrogant,” Yu Yan said with a scoff. He simply assumed Chu Kuangren was bluffing.
Before he could attack, he sensed a mystical and strange energy from Chu Kuagnren.
Suddenly, a divine ray shot out at him.
The ray somehow made Yu Yan’s heart race.
“This is… Destiny Dao?!”
Yu Yan’s expression shifted. Destiny Dao was one of the most mystical Daos in existence. Its power was unpredictable and profound.
Only less than a handful of cultivators could use the Destiny Dao as an offensive technique.
Yet, Chu Kuangren had that particular technique hidden under his sleeve!
“Bang!”
The Destiny Dao light ray struck Yu Yan, who could do nothing to resist, and started to affect his fate.
However, Yu Yan was rather calm about it. “Chu Kuangren, I didn’t expect you to have such a technique, but too bad. You have underestimated the power of the Grand Dao Realm. The first realm of the Grand Dao is Life Mastery, which means I’m the master of my life! I control my own fate! I have freed myself from the structure of the Universal Dao. How are you going to affect my fate?”
“Bang!”
Vast Grand Dao energy exploded from Yu Yan.
The Divine Destiny light ray was shattered.
Chu Kuangren chuckled. “You’re the master of your fate? Do you think fate is that simple?”
After that, he performed a set of mystical hand seals and unleashed an even stronger and more mystical Destiny energy.
The energy swirled in the void and triggered the existence in it. Following that, a massive gate descended from above.
It was the ultimate attack of the Great Destiny Technique, Destiny’s Gate!
The Destiny’s Gate unleashed vigorous Destiny energy that attacked Yu Yan. When the gate fell on him, it started to overpower his fate.
It even seemed like it was going to crush him.
The Great Destiny Technique was a Great Dao-level technique.
Chu Kuangren had used it to kill the Primordial, Shen Tian, many years ago.
Back then, he had only fused less than a hundred Daos.
Now, he had fused three thousand Daos and mastered the energy of three thousand Daoist laws. Hence, the power from Destiny’s Gate was unbelievably stronger this time.
“You tricked me!”
Yu Yan roared and channeled his energy to withstand the suppression from Destiny’s Gate.
He looked at Chu Kuangren in horror.
He finally knew why Chu Kuangren called Jiu Yin lucky.
Chu Kuangren did not use his full power in the fight with Jiu Yin and never used any of his ace cards.
Chu Kuangren was after Yu Yan, not Jiu Yin!
Yu Yan was foolish enough to think his trick worked and that he had grasped Chu Kuangren’s true power.
He did not once think that what he saw was what Chu Kuangren wanted him to see.
On the contrary, he fell into Chu Kuangren’s trap without realizing it.
