Chapter 963: Phoenix Reborn, The Ace of a King Immortal Progeny, Sword Crown Versus Three Immortals
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Violet sword ray erupted, and petals from the lotuses scattered, spreading the sword qi in all directions.
Huoshen Huang died on the spot.
Despite being further away, Hui Fa and Wu Wuji did not escape unscathed. They were struck by the sword qi and were forced backward, looking miserable.
After Huoshen Huang died, a piece of Yin and Yang Ring and tinders of all four Divine Flames floated in the void.
Chu Kuangren grinned at the spoils. He went up to the tinders and engulfed them with his Phoenix’s Flame, absorbing all of them into his body.
It was then a powerful energy wave exploded beside him.
Phoenix’s Flame burst out of Feng Shangyun’s charred body and engulfed him. It also canceled out Chu Kuangren’s Phoenix Flame. The visible wounds on his body were rapidly healing.
“Oh, so this is… nirvana?” Chu Kuangren’s eyes glimmered.
Aside from the special trait of devouring all fire, one of the other reasons the Phoenix’s Flame was ranked third on the Divine Flame List was because of its ability to undergo nirvana.
‘Whenever a phoenix is reborn, its powers improve by a lot.
Chu Kuangren had undergone nirvana once before.
“Chu Kuangren! I bet you didn’t expect this. I am a Phoenix, so I used your Phoenix’s Flame to be reborn! Now, I am stronger than before!”
‘As Feng Shangyun cackled at Chu Kuangren, the Phoenix’s Flame around him swirled violently around him, shedding an orange light on his handsome and rigid face. He glared at Chu Kuangren with visibly frantic killing intents.
“TIL Kill you!”
He then transformed into a ray of fiery light and flew towards Chu Kuangren. It was but a few moments after he was reborn, but the powers he displayed had surpassed a common Pseudo Immortal.
That sight surprised Hui Fa and Wu Wuji.
“Three against one. We still have a chance to win this!”
‘The two exchanged a quick yet determined look.
‘They were prepared to unveil their strongest ace card.
‘Wu Wuji took out a golden-red pill and consumed it. With that, his Emperor qi surged greatly, and the Ferocious Qi Source that he had comprehended got a huge boost as well.
On the other hand, Hui Fa put his hands together. Blood-colored Buddhist light containing dense rage qi intertwined with the Daoist patterns, and a ferocious-looking Resentful Buddha Avatar appeared from the void.
It was none other than the avatar of the Wicked Buddha Sect’s Resentful Buddha.
On top of that, two blood-colored rays of light flew out from Hui Fa’s body.
It was the remaining two Resentful Buddha sculptures!
The moment the two sculptures combined with the avatar, it gained an extra head and a pair of extra arms, making it look even more terrifying.
Chu Kuangren was intrigued. “Great. You really have collected the rest of the Resentful Buddha sculptures for me.”
“Die!”
Hui Fa bellowed coldly with a bewitching look on his face.
He was no longer the Golden Ridge Temple’s little Holy Monk.
The three King Immortal Progenies went after Chu Kuangren in stronger forms. However, all Chu Kuangren did was swing his sword around casually.
He performed only one strike at each of them, yet all three of them felt contended. They could not see the hope of victory anymore.
Were they ganging up against Chu Kuangren?
It might look so, but it surely did not feel like it.
They felt like it was Chu Kuangren who was slaughtering them.
“It’s time to end this boring fight,” Chu Kuangren bellowed coldly. At that, all thirteen source energies on him erupted one after another.
‘That particular scene shocked everyone present.
Some of the cultivators had not even seen so many source energies in his or her life, let alone see all the source energies come out from one person.
“A monster!”
“His Dao, what is it exactly? How does he possess so many source energies? He’s really terrifying!”
Everyone was left in awe and baffled by what happened. It was beyond their comprehension.
Usually, a single cultivator would possess only one Dao.
Therefore, one would usually gain insights into a single Dao, and if they were lucky, they might be able to cultivate one or two other Daos to enhance their strength.
However, thirteen source energies all in one person?!
No matter how they looked at it, it was inconceivable.
All thirteen source energies surrounded Chu Kuangren, and every move he made felt like it could shake the realm. All three King Immortal Progenies had never felt so intimidated before, albeit being Half-Immortal themselves.
“He hasn’t gone through the Three Disasters and Nine Dooms, and he already possesses such terrifying powers. Master is really an uncontrollable outlier in this realm!” the Sword Crown mumbled among the crowd.
Then, he looked into the distance. “This battle is gaining attention. I believe those old bastards are getting restless.”
His eyes suddenly glinted.
He should no longer remain an audience.
“D*mn it! We’ve underestimated him!”
“How can he be so powerful?!”
Hui Fa and company were baffled and in disbelief.
Even though they had unleashed everything they got, they felt helpless against Chu Kuangren, who possessed thirteen source energies.
“You guys are no match for me even if you outnumbered four to one,” Chu Kuangren said calmly.
Then, he raised his sword. Violet lotuses bloomed in the air and condensed sword qi that shrouded every direction.
All three King Immortal Progenies had nowhere else to run.
“Die!”
Chu Kuangren bellowed.
Countless sword qi danced around the air.
‘The Resentful Buddha, despite having two sculptures forming the avatar, was slashed countless times by the endless sword qi. It looked like it would crumble any moment.
On the other hand, Wu Wuji swung his spear in a flurry, attempting to fend off the sword qi. Alas, it was a futile effort against the powerful attack.
“Stop it at once!”
Just when all three King Immortal Progenies were in a pinch, a furious voice sounded from the distance.
A boundless aura of an Immortal blanketed the land.
The Immortal was finally joining the fray.
Everyone gasped and looked at Chu Kuangren in shock.
To them, no matter how arrogant Chu Kuangren was to the King Immortal Progenies, he should start to tone his attitude down when the Immortals were involved.
“It is I, the Holy City’s Great Elder!”
“and I, the Golden Ridge Temple’s Holy Monk!”
‘Wu Wuji and Hui Fa were delighted.
However, they soon realized that even after the Immortals made their voices heard, Chu Kuangren did not show any signs of slowing down or any intentions to stop.
In fact, all three of them were hurt badly because they were distracted.
The crowd was astonished.
Chu Kuangren had ignored the warnings from the Immortals!
Further away, three rays of light flew out from the deepest part of the Ancient Immortal Battlefield and headed towards the ruins of ancient orthodoxy. They wanted to stop, or better, kill Chu Kuangren.
All three rays of light were Immortals.
‘They were the Immortals of Holy Divine Fire Cult, Golden Ridge Temple, and the Holy City.
‘They were furious. After all, all Supreme Immortal Progenies were sky-prides carefully nurtured by the orthodoxies, let alone a King Immortal Progeny.
Yet, Chu Kuangren wanted to kill their King Immortal Progenies, and that was equivalent to killing Immortals in the making.
‘They just could not sit back and turn their eyes away.
“We must kill this foreigner!”
“Only his death can calm my wrath!”
At that moment, a figure in green robes appeared before them. It was an elderly man with white hair and a beard, who looked like a commoner.
However, all three Immortals stopped at once and looked at the green-robed elderly. Their pupils shrunk in shock.
“You’re… the Sword Crown?!”
“Why are you here?!”
The Sword Crown was one of the Seven Crowns of Planquilon Immortal World.
He was once the strongest Sword Immortal in this part of the Immortal World!
“It doesn’t matter why I am here. The thing is, this is as far as you guys can go,” the Sword Crown said.
“You are protecting Chu Kuangren?” the Holy Divine Fire Cult’s Immortal bellowed.
“Yes, Iam.”
