Chapter 314: The Sages Reveal Their Trump Cards, Allow Me To Play You A Song
With the Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart, Infallible Tormented Physique, and Transcendent Coalescence Daoist Physique all displayed simultaneously, Chu Kuangren’s combat strengths had forced the Sages to battle with the utmost caution!
“Strike!”
Chu Kuangren struck out his sword hand sign and a gigantic sword shadow materialized.
His sword qi erupted with its overwhelming destructive force aimed towards Third Forefather Linghu!
The power of that attack caught Third Forefather Linghu off guard, and he channeled all his energy to retaliate with another sword technique. However, this attack still blasted Third off his feet. There was now a huge cut on the Sage’s body.
“Don’t you dare behave so savagely!” The Third Prefect marched forward with his Daoist Rhymes enveloping him. Suddenly, he had a set of white armor covering his body.
It was a Sage-level armor.
The Third Prefect had rarely put it to use. However, when facing a formidable opponent like Chu Kuangren, putting it aside was no longer a choice!
With his white armor equipped, the Third Prefect charged towards Chu Kuangren as he relentlessly unleashed a palm technique after another.
Chu Kuangren retaliated with a single fist attack, fusing a copious amount of ferocious qi into the Transcendental Might to form an enormous fist that punched the Third Prefect away!
This fist technique should be enough to easily kill the average Sage. However, since the Third Prefect was equipped with his Sage armor, he did not sustain heavy injury.
“I’ll keep him occupied. Find a way to kill him!”
The Third Prefect said loudly before he charged at Chu Kuangren once again. He was already a Seven-Step Sage, but the armor had elevated his abilities beyond the Sage’s boundary and placed him closer to that of a Great Sage.
Chu Kuangren’s Divine Ferocious Avatar and the Daoist Rhymes of the Third Prefect collided with one another, sending a shockwave that decimated two more islands.
The Third Prefect was both panicking and fuming. Out of the thirteen floating islands, Chu Kuangren had destroyed five of them. If they did not keep Chu Kuangren under control soon, the First City would be utterly destroyed by this b*stard.
“Dazzling Sun Lightning!”
“Dragon Tiger Typhoon!”
“Six Compounded Palms!”
“Brilliant Heaven Shaking Punch!”
Aside from Third Forefather Linghu, the remaining four Sages unleashed their distinctive Sage Techniques while the Third Prefect was keeping Chu Kuangren occupied.
Chu Kuangren continuously activated his Divine Ferocious Avatar to absorb all the damages that the combined attacks were sending. Even the Daoist Conjuration was showing signs of disintegrating.
However, Chu Kuangren still remained fearless at this very moment. In fact, he was beaming with more excitement. “Come on! It’s been a while since I’ve had such a fun battle. Show me all the techniques you have!”
Perhaps Chu Kuangren was always hungry for war because if not, he would not have caused so many dramas in Firmament Star in the past few years.
Meanwhile, the Infallible Tormented Physique that was made specifically for this kind of battle was pushed to its limit!
The ferocious qi and battle intent of the Divine Ferocious Avatar grew even stronger. With the support from Chu Kuangren’s Transcendental Might, not even five Sages could bring him down!
Swoosh!
At that moment, a sword ray abruptly emerged from above!
The sword ray pierced the firmament and came for Chu Kuangren. It unexpectedly broke through the Divine Ferocious Avatar and landed a direct hit on Chu Kuangren.
“It’s the Punishing Heart Sword of the Linghu clan!”
“The Punishing Heart Sword is aimed to shatter a cultivator’s Daoist core!”
Although he was exhausted, Third Forefather Linghu was overjoyed when he saw that his sword had finally penetrated Chu Kuangren’s body.
“We did it!”
The Punishing Heart Sword was the ultimate trump card of the Linghu clan.
The sword technique was designed to put its victim’s Daoist core to test. If Chu Kuangren’s Daoist Core was weak, he would be affected and in the worst-case scenario, his state of mind would descend into the Heart Demon Realm. He would never be able to recover!
The Punishing Heart Sword was also known as one of the hardest sword techniques to counter in Firmament Star. It was the Linghu clan’s strongest legacy!
“Did you think that this Punishing Heart Sword can shake my Daoist core?”
At that moment, Chu Kuangren let out a mocking sneer despite still having the Punishing Heart Sword lodged in his body.
He was not affected at all!
After all, Chu Kuangren possessed the Rocksteady Daoist Core. Not even the Punishing Heart Sword of Third Forefather Linghu could easily do damage to it.
“Let me take care of you first!”
Due to the effects of the Purified Prime Magnet, Chu Kuangren did not wield his Self Descendant Sword. Instead, he struck out his sword hand sign and released a ray of sword qi.
Even without his Self Descendant Sword, the sword qi was powerful enough to kill a Sage!
Having used all he had left to unleash the Punishing Heart Sword while he was injured, Third Forefather Linghu no longer had any spiritual energy to defend against Chu Kuangren’s incoming attack.
“Save me!”
Third Forefather Linghu screamed in terror.
Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang immediately came to his aid and retaliated with a palm technique that unleashed the might of the six compounds!
As his palm qi and Chu Kuangren’s sword qi crashed into one another, powerful shockwaves sent Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang and Third Forefather Linghu flying out the battlefield.
“Oh, looks like he’s lucky enough to survive.”
Chu Kuangren said nonchalantly. He did not expect the Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang to react quickly enough to save Third Forefather Linghu’s life.
“Is it because of that dark red mist?”
Chu Kuangren noticed that Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang was fuming with a dark red mist on his body. His aura was also getting stronger as time passed.
Hence he activated his Eye of Revelation.
“Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang, Seven-Step Sage. He has consumed a drop of Sage Ruler’s Blood Essence and his abilities are growing stronger...”
The Eye of Revelation’s information was displayed in Chu Kuangren’s vision.
Sage Ruler’s Blood Essence.
Chu Kuangren was taken by surprise. At the same time, another terrifying aura exploded in the vicinity.
Graygrill Sage had swallowed a bottle of medicinal pill from his inventory, which elevated his Overlord Physique to another level!
“Graygrill, Five-Step Sage. He has consumed an Overlord Physique stimulant and his abilities are growing stronger...”
“Looks like they’re really going all out this time.”
Chu Kuangren smirked.
Since Graygrill Sage and Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang both revealed their trump cards, the rest followed suit too.
The Tempest Mountain Sage retrieved a wooden sword that was imbued with a terrifying Sword Daoist Rhyme.
Using a secret technique, the Thunder Falcon Sage had also enhanced the power of his Dazzling Sun Lightning to another level.
Once everyone revealed their trump cards, the Sages once again charged at Chu Kuangren together. This time, their attacks were packed with even deadlier damage.
“Attack!”
The Tempest Mountain Sage wielded his wooden sword, conjuring a grey-clothed figure that appeared in thin air and attacked Chu Kuangren.
This sword attack contained Daoist Rhymes that were beyond the average Sage’s boundary, concentrating its destructive sword qi onto the Divine Ferocious Avatar.
In a split second, the crack on the Divine Ferocious Avatar was even bigger now.
“Brilliant Heaven Shaking Punch!”
“Six Compounded Palms!”
Graygrill Sage and Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang both attacked in unison.
The palm and fist qi were packed with a vast amount of Daoist Rhyme that instantly reduced the Divine Ferocious Avatar into a black mist.
“Dazzling Sun Lightning, Sky Breaker!”
The Thunder Falcon Sage channeled his lightning that was imbued with a white flame and struck it at Chu Kuangren. His Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart and its three Daoist Conjurations were instantly shattered.
The Third Prefect took the opportunity to unleash all his energies into a singular palm technique, blasting Chu Kuangren off the battlefield.
Boom boom boom...
Like a cannonball, Chu Kuangren’s body was sent flying as he smashed into dozens of buildings before he finally crashed onto the ground, creating an enormous crater that kept spreading like a spider web.
“I think this is it.”
Graygrill Sage looked at the crater and said.
With such an attack, even a Great Sage would hardly survive. Chu Kuangren ought to be dead by now.
At least that was what everyone thought.
When the dust settled, they all stared in horror!
Chu Kuangren was still standing in the middle of the crater with jade crown broken, unshackling his black hair that swayed in the wind.
Other than that, there was not even the slightest injury on his body!
It was as if the Sages’ combined attacks were completely fruitless!
“Looks like all of you have revealed your trump cards by now. Well then, it’s my turn to reveal mine!”
Then, Chu Kuangren waved his sleeves and a black guqin appeared before him. “Everyone, allow me to play you a song!”
