Chapter 2102
2102 Kill Master Chen, Enter Hongmeng Spirit World, Strange Mountain Ridge
The warship arrived carrying majestic Radiant energy, which captivated everyone.
On the deck was a person in white robes and a transcendental presence.
One glance at the person made everyone’s expression shift to a more serious one.
“An outstanding aura.”
“Is he the Child of Light?”
After the warship arrived, Chu Kuangren looked at the gathered crowd and pondered.
Before he arrived, he had learned about the forces wanting to explore the Hongmeng Spirit World. Albeit complicated, there were three he should pay attention to.
They were the Heavenly Formation Palace, the Apocalypse Martial Society, and the Beastman Tribe.
All three forces had Monarch Class Transcendentalists behind them that almost rivaled or was much more powerful than the Radiant Church.
“It’s him, Chu Kuangren.”
One of the cultivators from the Heavenly Formation Palace cried in shock.
It was none other than Master Chen, who was present at the Tempest Palace to remove the restriction seals back then.
He was flabbergasted when he saw Chu Kuangren as the Child of Light. Was Chu Kuangren not a heretic hunted by the Radiant Church?
“Oh, it’s you.” Chu Kuangren scoffed.
He raised his hand, summoning a white spear formed by Radiant energy, and hurled it forward.
“Swoosh!”
The white spear shredded the void, and its grand Radiant energy locked onto Master Chen.
“Damn it!”
Master Chen’s expression shifted. He revealed a formation using multiple compasses, but the spear’s force broke it.
At that critical moment, a white-haired elder from the same force channeled countless restriction seals before Master Chen to form multiple defensive barriers.
The white spear clashed with the defense barriers, releasing a deafening blast.
An explosion erupted in the void.
Master Chen was blasted away, with his face pale.
“Radiant Church, what is the meaning of this?”
The white-haired elder of the Heavenly Formation Palace looked at Chu Kuangren coldly. He was deeply shaken by the power of the spear as well.
It seemed like a plain and simple strike, yet it contained such power. Clearly, Chu Kuangren was not to be underestimated.
Master Chen was also astonished.
Back when they were at the Tempest Palace, Chu Kuangren was not even a Primordial. However, he had now mastered the Radiant Great Dao and became a Grand Dao elite.
It was unbelievable.
“I’m killing him. Are you blind?” Chu Kuangren said nonchalantly.
“You’re trying to kill one of us in front of me? How arrogant!”
“So what?”
Chu Kuangren’s figure vanished in a flash.
The white-haired elder wanted to defend, but Radiant energy swirled around him and formed chains to restrain him on the spot.
“What?”
The white-haired elder was not the only one shocked. Even Master Chen was mortified.
A chilling threat of death shrouded and drowned him whole.
Before he could react, a blast of white light flashed before him, and a white palm seal expanded before his eyes, filling his entire sight.
“Bang!”
Following a burst of blood mist, Master Chen was slammed to death by the white palm seal. He did not even have the chance to react.
Everyone was shocked.
“Radiant Church, what is the meaning of this? Explain yourself!”
Infuriated, the people from the Heavenly Formation Palace glared at the cultivators from Radiant Church.
“I had a grudge against the man. Why couldn’t I kill him?” Chu Kuangren said indifferently with his hands behind his back.
“Oh? If that’s the case, I can kill you now that you killed Master Chen,” said a cold voice.
A man in green robes stepped out from the Heavenly Formation Palace’s side. He had countless mystical restriction seals surrounding him that emanated the presence of the Five Ways and Bagua.
His presence was as strong as the Great Dao!
The man was an elder of the Heavenly Formation Palace named Yuan Hong.
He was one of the main explorers of the Hongmeng Spirit World.
Chu Kuangren narrowed his eyes and said, “If you have what it takes, go ahead.”
“I would like to test you out myself.”
With his hands raised, Hong Yuan summoned multiple mystical restriction seals. The aura of the Five Ways filled the space and formed a powerful formation.
“Enough. If you two are going to fight, why don’t you fight inside the Spirit World after it opens? Don’t waste everyone’s time here!”
A black-robed cultivator wielding a saber stepped out to stop the fight.
Chu Kuangren glanced at the man and was slightly surprised. “This aura feels familiar.”
“Master, when you were traveling the Infiniverse, you met a cultivator named Apocalyptic Saber Cultivator. The Apocalyptic Demon Martial Art he cultivates has the same source as this man in black.”
“Oh? So he’s from the Apocalypse Martial Society, which means that Apocalyptic Saber Cultivator is related to this force.”
Chu Kuangren pondered as he stroked his chin.
He told Lil Ai to analyze the elites from the Apocalypse Martial Society as the auras in them seemed to be connected to a certain being.
Similar to Apocalyptic Saber Cultivator, they all possessed strange willpowers in them.
“Lei Xuan is right. Stop this right now. You guys can continue after we get into the Spirit World,” grumbled a tall beastman with the horns of a bull.
Yuan Hong glanced around and was aware of the crowd’s growing displeasure. Hence, he grunted coldly and said, “In that case, let’s open the Hongmeng Spirit World first.”
“Afraid? Boring.” Chu Kuangren shook his head.
“You…” Yuan Hong was furious. “After we enter the Spirit World, I will throw you into the Five Ways Grand Formation and burn you to ashes!”
“I look forward to it.”
Everyone then worked together to open the Hongmeng Spirit World.
Liu Hu, Hong Yuan, Lei Xuan, and others unleashed their Grand Dao energies. As the energies clashed, the power tore open a crack in the void.
The spatial crack was the entrance to the Hongmeng Spirit World.
A chaotic aura came from within, and one could spot blinks of treasures through the entrance.
“Let’s go.”
Everyone entered the spatial crack in a flash.
Chu Kuangren entered as well.
However, when he passed the spatial crack, a powerful spatial energy covered him and attempted to disfigure his body.
With a solemn look on his face, he used the Radiant energy to shroud and protect himself.
Then, the scenery before his eyes changed.
He arrived at a mountain ridge blanketed by black qi, and no one was around him.
“It seems like the Hongmeng Spirit World separated everyone at the entrance,” Chu Kuangren thought out loud.
However, it was not entirely bad either since he could move around more freely.
With that thought in mind, he looked at the black mountain ridge and headed inside.
He also told Lil Ai to analyze the black qi around the mountains.
“Roar!”
A furious roar echoed in the Spirit World.
A striped tiger came out from the mountain forest, covered in black qi. Its eyes shone with brazen viciousness as he jumped on Chu Kuangren.
Chu Kuangren unleashed a palm strike forward, blasting the tiger into bits.
“The tiger seems to have lost its sanity.”
He was surprised by the tiger’s reaction.
“Master, the tiger might be affected by the black qi around the mountains,” Lil Ai said.
Chu Kuangren also had a similar guess, so he conserved his Radiant energy and grabbed the black qi in the air.
The black qi seeped into his body, making him restless for some reason.
“It’s the black qi,” Chu Kuangren muttered.
His Daoist core was shaken because of the sliver of black qi.
Other cultivators would have fallen into a blind frenzy when they touched the black qi.
