Chapter 1007 The Sword Crown Carries A Bad Name, The Sword Qi That Chu Kuangren Released
The Sword Crown fought the Saber Crown again after a thousand years!
The battle was exceptional. However, in the end, the Saber Crown remained the victor.
The swordsmanship world fell into a desolate state once again, making countless swordsmen unhappy. On the other hand, the saber cultivators felt prouder than ever.
The swordsmanship world was crushed by the saber world.
The Sword Crown’s defeat also attracted the grudge and dissatisfaction from the other swordsmen.
“Sword Crown? He brings the same to the title!”
“I agree. A thousand years ago, he lost to the Saber Crown. From that day onward, the swordsmanship world has fallen second to the saber world. Now, after a thousand years have passed, they’ve fought again, and the Sword Crown has lost again. The person who is supposed to be the peak of the Sword Dao has lost twice! Twice! The Sword Crown brings nothing but shame to the swordsmanship world.”
“Great, just great. The saber world has crushed the swordsmanship world, and all the swordsmen in the world have to lower themselves from now on. It’s all the Sword Crown’s fault. Is he dead yet? If not, can someone please replace him?” “Tsk, trash…”
All the swordsmen in the world were clouded by anger, and they all blamed the Sword Crown. For quite some time, the Sword Crown was called all kinds of inglourious names.
After the battle, the Saber Crown hung a broken Immortal sword at the entrance of Slumbering Sword Ocean — it was the Sword Crown’s Azure Lotus Immortal Sword.
Beside the sword carved a few lines of words.
“Thousand Lotus Sword Intent doesn’t live up to its name. A saber is the strongest among all weapons.” That particular line was a great insult to all swordsmen; it was equivalent to slapping on the face. They had the right to be furious, but there was nothing they could do about it.
The Saber Crown was the strongest in Saber Dao and one of the most powerful Immortals out there. Other than those from the stronger ancient immortal orthodoxies, only a few in the world could rival him.
If the strongest of the Sword Dao, the Sword Crown, was defeated, the other swordsmen would stand no chance.
“The Sword Crown is the strongest with the sword, and if even he loses, no swordsmen in the world can win the Saber Crown anymore,” said the famous Great Sword Immortal, the Dragon Cry Sword Orthodoxy’s Master Daoist Dragon Cry. His comments killed the last bit of hope in all swordsmen’s hearts.
The swordsmanship world welcomed its darkest days in history.
Back at Hundred Academy, after Chu Kuangren came back from Penglai Island, he had been in closed-door meditation to further gain insights into the source energy he created. His mastery over the source energy leaped improvement.
The source energy he created was exceptional, different from the countless source energies that originated from this universe. As such, it was not restricted by the laws within the universe.
The most obvious presentation of its uniqueness was that Chu Kuangren could transform it into any kind of source energy he wished for. He could even use it to gain insights or absorb other source energies to strengthen his own.
In other words, Chu Kuangren’s mastery over the source energy he created allowed him to master other source energies within the universe.
Of course, he would have to gain complete insights into the source energy before he could transform the Self-empowerment and Invincible Source into countless other source energies.
It was indeed a powerful and scary ability as it possessed endless possibilities.
For example, every Immortal Technique in the world required its corresponding source energy to bring out its full potential.
However, with his mastery over the source energy that he created, he could easily use any kind of Immortal Technique with its full potential unlocked.
“Interesting. I wonder how the Self-empowerment and Invincible Source would surprise me in the future,” Chu Kuangren said with a chuckle.
Then, he took out Fantasy Roulette for a gatcha draw.
“Congratulations, Host! You have received a God-tier prize, the Three-Days Immortal Ascension Pill.”
Chu Kuangren glanced at the description.
“The Immortal Ascension Pill enables one to ascend into an Immortal on the spot!”
The pill enabled one to ascend into an Immortal right away. Such a pill was legendary in Planquilon Immortal World, and the Three-Days Immortal Ascension Pill was a discounted version of it.
Although it enabled one to ascend into an Immortal, its effect lasted only for three days, hence the name.
“Not bad. I can keep it as a trump card,” Chu Kuangren muttered.
After getting his prize, Chu Kuangren came out of closed-door meditation.
The news of the Sword Crown’s defeat entered his ears as soon as he came out, and his delight was replaced with gloom.
“Sword Crown, you old baby, you just have to cause trouble for me,” Chu Kuangren muttered.
Lan Yu said softly beside him, “Are you going to the Slumbering Sword Ocean?”
“Of course, I’m going.”
No matter what the Sword Crown did, he had been a loyal follower of Chu Kuangren for some days now, so there was no way that Chu Kuangren would sit back and do nothing.
“How’s the Sword Crown now?”
“News is that after the defeat, the Saber Crown has imprisoned him instead of taking his life.”
“Alright. I got it.”
Chu Kuangren nodded. Then, he gestured a sword hand sign, and a stream of sword qi gathered at the tip of his fingers.
When he raised his hand, a surge of sword qi was fired into the void, disappearing almost instantaneously. Every Master in the academy, including the dean and Gong Yue, who came for a visit, noticed the little action. All of them looked in the direction where the sword qi went. “The direction that sword qi is going… it’s the Slumbering Sword Ocean!” “Haha, this is going to be interesting.” “It seems like Master Chu is going to the Slumbering Sword Ocean. I suppose it’s bound to happen. Given Master Chu’s personality, he wouldn’t just sit back while the Sword Crown is bullied. The Slumbering Sword Ocean just got themselves a difficult opponent.”
Somewhere in the academy, the dean and Gong Yue were chatting over some tea.
They, too, noticed the sword qi that Chu Kuangren fired and exchanged a quick look. Both of them shared the same thought.
“Sister Gong Yue, what do you think of Brother Chu?” the dean asked.
Gong Yue thought about it for a while. She recalled what happened back at Penglai Island and the transcendent source energy ripple that she felt from him.
With a shake of her head, she chuckled. “I can’t seem to understand him.”
“It is difficult. Who do you think will have the advantage? Brother Chu or Slumbering Sword Ocean?”
“The Slumbering Sword Ocean has a lot of powerful cultivators and many Immortals, but amongst them, the strongest would be the Saber Crown. His cultivation level is close to the ranks of an Earthen Immortal. With some trump cards, I don’t think a common Earthen Immortal could be his match. As for Brother Chu…”
She thought about it for a moment and then added, “Brother Chu is unpredictable, but he is still not an Immortal. Even if he possesses the powers of an Immortal, compared to the Saber Crown who is close to an Earthen Immortal, I believe there will be some differences.”
“Hoho, Sister Gong Yue, you’re underestimating him.”
“Do you really think Brother Chu can win?”
“I don’t think so. I am certain that he will win!”
A hint of surprise flashed across Gong Yue’s eyes. “I did not expect this level of confidence you have in him. This is beyond me.”
“He is an anomaly, and it’s not something that we can deduce or predict now,” the dean said.
Further away at Slumbering Sword Ocean, after Sword Crown’s defeat, all the saber cultivators savored the feeling of victory, and their admiration for the Saber Crown rose to a new high.
To them, the Saber Crown was a living legend. “The Sect Master is really incredible. Especially that final blow that seals the deal, it’s unforgettable!”
“Yeah, he really makes us saber cultivators
proud!”
“Did you guys see the looks on those swordsman’s faces? It was like they ate a fly. Hahaha, it really makes me feel good!”
“Now those swordsmen will have to be afraid of us.”
Several saber cultivators were chatting at the entrance of Slumbering Sword Ocean. Everyone had a look of admiration on their faces as they talked about the Saber Crown and contempt when they mentioned the swordsmen.
It was at that moment that the saber cultivators felt something, and the admiration on their faces changed to shock. Terrified, they looked further away.
“What’s that?”
A violet sword ray was flying over towards them, and a terrifying sword pressure enveloped the whole of Slumbering Sword Ocean.
“What a terrifying sword. Whose is it?”
“Sh*t! It’s heading to the Slumbering Sword Ocean!”
“Damn it!”
Swoosh!
Several figures came out from the Slumbering Sword Ocean. Powerful Immortal’s Core energy fluctuation emanated from them as they emerged.
They were the Saber Immortals of Slumbering Sword Ocean, the strongest of the entire sect.
However, they looked at the incoming violet sword ray with an unprecedentedly heavy expression.
