Chapter 1170: All Parties’ Reactions, Ox-headed And Horse-faced Demons, Successfully Refining The Emperor Seal
On a mountain peak in Great Dreamfog Marsh, a man dressed in white suddenly opened his eyes, and a powerful surge of Immortal’s Core spread from him.
“I’ve finally broken through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm.”
“Adding the Heavenly Dao strength in me, I can even fight a Higher Third-grade Heavenly Immortal,” mumbled the man in white.
The Heavenly Dao Sect was known throughout the universe for utilizing the Heavenly Dao strength, and the man in white was Heavenly Daoist Kun of the Heavenly Dao Sect!
He was also one of the Heavenly Champions involved in the Battle of the Heavenly Champions.
“I wonder where Chu Kuangren is now. There are rumors that he has become the Hundred Academy’s Chief and Fengdu’s Ghost Emperor. It really is surprising. I wonder how far his Heavenly Dao energy has developed?”
Heavenly Daoist Kun furrowed his brows at the thought of Chu Kuangren.
He and the entire Heavenly Dao Sect were concerned about Chu Kuangren’s strange technique of devouring the Heavenly Dao.
He had a hunch that if he could master the technique, his cultivation in Heavenly Dao would progress rapidly and surpass Heavenly Dao Sect’s first Daoist, Heavenly Daoist Tian!
“Now that I’ve broken through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm, and since the Battle of the Heavenly Champions hasn’t started for long, not many people should possess the same cultivation as me. It seems like dealing with Chu Kuangren can be brought forward on my schedule.” Heavenly Daoist Kun said with a confident smile.
…
Soon after, he left the mountain peak and wanted to find some Opportunities of Fortune in the Great Dreamfog Marsh. That was when he heard some rumors.
“Have you heard that there is a fragment of Fengdu City in the depths of the Great Dreamfog Marsh? That was where the Hundred Academy’s Chief obtained the Samsara Emperor Seal.”
“Hiss… The Hundred Academy’s Chief, Chu Kuangren? He has already got an Emperor Seal, but now he’s got another one?!”
“That’s amazing.”
“He’s no doubt the Fengdu Ghost Emperor.”
“Indeed.”
‘There’s a fragment of Fengdu City in the Great Dreamfog Marsh?’
‘Chu Kuangren is in Fengdu City?’
Heavenly Daoist Kun’s eyes lit up upon learning the news. “I can’t believe I’ve looked everywhere only to find him here. How effortless!”
“Chu Kuangren, I’m coming!”
…
In the meantime, Jiu Yuan was suspended above the Blood Pond with his legs crossed in a cave in Great Dreamfog Marsh. Countless blood qi was constantly gushing into his body, altering his bloodline and improving his cultivation.
After day and night, Jiu Yuan finally opened his eyes, where a blood-colored glint flashed within.
As he sucked the remaining blood essence in the Blood Pond, surges of terrifying yokai qi gushed out like a flood and shook the entire mountain range.
“I’ve successfully broken through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm, and my bloodline has gone through its fourth awakening.”
“Haha. Except for those direct ancestral lineages, only a few divine and wild beasts can achieve the fourth awakening.”
“Whoever has hurt me, you shall wait and see!”
Jiu Yuan soared into the sky and smashed through the mountain range.
The first thing he did was investigate Chu Kuangren.
He remembered his features, the ancient sword, the scripture scroll, and sword qi, which should all stand out.
Sure enough, it did not take long for him to find out Chu Kuangren’s information.
“The Hundred Academy’s Chief, Chu Kuangren?”
“He’s in Fengdu City, huh? Alright. I’ll go and find you right now!”
Jiu Yuan’s eyes were cold.
He took a step forward and dashed toward Fengdu City’s location.
Boom, boom!
Countless death qi was filling the air as a black figure raised his hand and blasted several giant crocodiles in the swamp into blood mist.
Next to the figure, a pale-faced young man, the Chakra Tribe’s successor of the Yincao Underworld City, had a gloomy expression and was slightly displeased.
“What exactly is going on?”
“Why haven’t you found the fragment of Fengdu City after searching for so long? I was told that Fengdu’s aura appeared here some time ago,” the Chakra successor said in a cold tone.
“Please be patient, Young Master. The Great Dreamfog Marsh is huge, and finding the fragment of Fengdu City isn’t easy. We’ll find it soon as long as it is there.” Hei Wuchang comforted the pale-faced young man.
A white figure suddenly approached.
He was one of the followers of the Chakra successor, Bai Wuchang.
“Young Master, I have news.”
“Oh, tell me.” The Chakra successor’s eyes lit up.
“There are rumors out there that the fragment of Fengdu City has emerged in the Great Dreamfog Marsh, and the Ghost Emperor, Chu Kuangren, is in Fengdu now!”
Upon hearing that, the pale face of the Chakra successor darkened. “I’ve searched for so long and found nothing. I can’t believe the new Ghost Emperor is one step faster than me at getting the Emperor Seal. D*mn it!”
“Young Master, Chu Kuangren has already obtained two Emperor Seals. I’m afraid it’s unwise if we were to confront him head-on,” said Hei Wuchang.
“Do you want me to watch him get his hands on the seal that I was supposed to have?” the Chakra successor asked coldly.
“Not necessarily so.”
Beside him, Bai Wuchang continued. “According to the investigation, someone deliberately released the news of Chu Kuangren being in Fengdu City. All forces are heading to the Great Dreamfog Marsh now, and it seems they may take action. Perhaps we can utilize their strength.”
“Great!”
The Chakra successor said coldly, “Since he’s a Ghost Emperor, we’ll have to face him sooner or later, and we might as well take this opportunity to kill him?!”
With that, he raised his hand and hit the void.
A gray vortex emerged in the void, and the power of samsara spread outward.
It was the Hell’s Gate, which the Underworld specially used to extradite dead souls!
After a terrifying, gloomy, and deadly aura gushed out from the vortex, two extremely tall, giant-like figures walked out of the vortex.
One of the figures was ox-headed and holding a metal trident, while another was horse-faced with the Fangtian Painted Halberd. Along with them, surges of horrifyingly eerie qi swept through.
They were the Ox-headed and Horse-faced Demons, the Underworld Soldiers’ Commanders of the Yincao Underworld City!
Besides them, countless armored Underworld Soldiers also rush out of the vortex, soon filling the space.
“Greetings, Young Master!”
“Greetings, Young Master!”
The Ox-headed and Horse-faced Demons came before the Chakra successor and greeted him.
“Well, I’ve dispatched both of you from the Underworld City to come with me and deal with someone.”
“Who has caused the Young Master to move so aggressively, so much that my brother and I have to dispatch a hundred thousand Underworld Soldiers?” asked the Ox-headed Demon in a buzzing voice.
“It’s the Ghost Emperor!”
…
In Fengdu Underworld City, Chu Kuangren had successfully refined the Emperor Seal. It was the Ghost Emperors of the East, Yulei’s Emperor Seal. Unlike Shenshu, Yulei did not leave behind his Immortal Consciousness. Therefore, it took Chu Kuangren some effort to refine the seal.
With two Emperor Seals in hand, Chu Kuangren felt that he had a better grasp of the power of samsara now.
As he mobilized his thoughts, everything in the fragment of Fengdu City came into view, and he also noticed the changes in the outside world.
“Oh. The location of Fengdu City’s fragment has been exposed, and many people have come. Interesting,” Chu Kuangren said with a smirk.
Although many people had come, none could get near the Imperial Palace because of the protection of the armored dead soul and other dead souls.
Chu Kuangren checked Lan Yu and others’ conditions.
They were still refining the lotus seeds.
Among them, Lan Yu’s aura was much stronger. She had reached the Great Perfected Ninth-grade Earthen Immortal and was only one step away from the Heavenly Immortal Realm.
He reckoned she would not take long to break through.
Chu Kuangren nodded with satisfaction. “The Radiant War Immortal Physique is truly amazing. It looks like it still has a lot of room for growth.”
He looked at Chu Hong and Lil Fox.
One was a fourth-awakened pure-blooded Godly Phoenix, whereas the other was a strange Moonlight Fox of the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox. They, too, were performing well in their own ways.
