Chapter 1201: I Refuse To Believe I Can’t Block a Single Slash, Killing the Blooded Nine Crow, Back to the Hundred Academy
A figure was slowly walking out of the Kunlun Secret Realm’s entrance.
He, dressed in white robes, had long black hair, as well as an ancient sword and scroll at his waist.
His handsomeness was unparalleled, while his demeanor was nothing short of otherworldly.
It was none other than Chu Kuangren.
Everyone was talking about the Evil Immortal Valley at that time. However, when they saw Chu Kuangren, they were all so terrified that they started shuddering.
“It’s him!”
“He has come out.”
Everyone looked at Chu Kuangren fearfully. Especially those who witnessed that great battle that day were much more frightened to see him.
They looked at him as if he was a monster.
Besides Chu Kuangren, Lan Yu, Lil Fox, and many others were following him out.
…
“Oh, it’s them.”
Chu Kuangren naturally saw Tushan Fei Yu and her party under attack as he walked out of the secret realm, to which he was a little surprised.
What a coincidence.
“Hey, boss. Can you…”
Lil Fox tugged Chu Kuangren by his sleeves anxiously.
She did not want to sit back and do anything. Besides being from the same tribe, Tushan Fei Yu might possess some information about her father too.
“Don’t worry. I’ll handle it.”
Chu Kuangren caressed her head and smiled.
“Alright.”
After having his reassurance, Lil Fox nodded happily as if a weight had been lifted off her shoulders.
Inside the runic enchanted boundary, Tushan Fei Yu was struggling in her battle against the Blooded Nine Crow. Although his cultivation level was similar to hers, he had the help of the Permanent Spatial Rune, and she soon fell to a disadvantage.
“Now die!”
The Blooded Nine Crow threw out a brutal punch!
His terrifying fist energy swept across everywhere and enveloped Tushan Fei Yu. If that punch hit her, she would be critically injured.
However, ripples started to appear on the runic enchanted boundary at that moment.
Before the Blooded Nine Crow could figure out what was going on, a white figure suddenly appeared before him and blocked that fist energy he unleashed.
The figure in white gently raised his hand.
Boom!
Before the terrifying fist energy was a meter away from him, it seemingly made contact with an indestructible barrier and was repelled. That fist energy could not advance further at all!
“How is this possible?!”
The Blooded Nine Crow was horrified.
In the next instant, the person who appeared gently gestured a grab in the void.
With a boom, the Blooded Nine Crow’s fist energy brutally shattered into pieces!
Besides that, a terrifying wave of rebound energy was sent back toward him, sending him flying hundreds of meters away. As a result, the Blooded Nine Crow coughed up a mouthful of blood, and his face turned pale.
“W-What is happening?!”
“This power!”
The Blooded Nine Crow looked at the person who appeared.
He was shocked upon seeing who it was and began shuddering uncontrollably. “It’s you, Chu Kuangren!”
Furthermore, he noticed an opening had been torn open in his runic enchanted boundary.
Chu Kuangren had tore open his enchanted boundary, which was created by the most top-tiered Gilded Immortal Rune!
‘H-How is this possible?!’
The Blooded Nine Crow was astonished by Chu Kuangren’s power. Still, he collected himself and said, “Chu Kuangren, I have no grudge nor ill-will to you. Why do you want to risk angering the Evil Immortal Valley by interfering with my matters?”
He quickly mentioned the Evil Immortal Valley’s name in an attempt to scare Chu Kuangren.
Alas, Chu Kuangren was not intimidated at all. Instead, he raised one finger and said, “I only need one slash.”
“What do you mean?”
“If you can block this slash, I shall let you live.”
“You…”
The Blooded Nine Crow’s face turned grim. “You better watch yourself, Chu Kuangren. I have nothing to do with you, so why are you trying to cause me trouble?”
Chu Kuangren did not answer his question.
He pointed his sword hand sign forward, gathering sword qi at his fingertips.
The Blooded Nine Crow had already seen him as prey when he first stepped foot into the Kunlun Secret Realm. That in itself was an act of insolence to Chu Kuangren.
Back then, Chu Kuangren was considered kind enough not to kill him right away.
Besides, seeing that the people from the Evil Immortal Valley had been committing crime after crime, it did not matter to him even if he killed one of them. He would just regard them as a pest. Would anyone require a reason to exterminate pests?
“D*mn it!”
The Blooded Nine Crow was starting to panic.
He knew that Chu Kuangren was determined to unleash that slash no matter what.
“Very well. One slash it is!”
“I refuse to believe I can’t block a single slash!”
The Blooded Nine Crow took a deep breath, and a resolute look appeared in his eyes. He, too, was a top-notch Heavenly Champion.
He refused to believe he could not handle a single slash from Chu Kuangren while inside his own runic enchanted boundary!
“Heavenly, Sword-like Intent!”
At that moment, the sword qi that Chu Kuangren had gathered unleashed as his sword hand sign slashed in the air!
As soon as he attacked, the Blooded Nine Crow had already channeled the enchanted runic boundary’s power to weigh upon Chu Kuangren!
He wanted to use the enchanted boundary’s energy to resist his opponent’s sword qi!
However, a buzz sounded while ripples began to form in the void.
Right there and then, the runic energy shattered!
It could not stop Chu Kuangren’s sword qi even for a second!
In the form of sword qi, mighty heavenly intent enveloped the Blooded Nine Crow whole.
‘I can’t block it!’
‘I really can’t block it!’
The Blooded Nine Crow was overwhelmed with despair. That was when he finally understood how terrifying Chu Kuangren was.
He was a forbidden being that in terms of strength and power, far exceeded his peers!
Following a loud boom, the Blooded Nine Crow’s body was reduced into a mist of blood, immediately killing him!
Everyone gasped at that scene.
Many of them had only heard rumors about Chu Kuangren and had yet witnessed his strength firsthand.
Yet, as of now, they finally saw him in action.
Most of them were stunned and speechless, whereas the cultivators who witnessed the great battle previously were not too shocked.
“The combined efforts of many top-notch Heavenly Champions like Chi Zhan, Zhuo Donglai, and Zhi Lei are nothing in the face of Chu Kuangren, let alone the Blooded Nine Crow himself. He’s just too weak.”
“He had no idea what kind of person he was fighting.”
The mist of blood erupted in the air like fireworks.
Then, a will of the Immortal Worlentered Chu Kuangren’s body.
Chu Kuangren had already lost count of how many wills of the Immortal World he had collected, but the Planquilon Immortal World’s Will inside him had grown much stronger compared to the start of the Immortal World Convergence. Its power had reached a terrifying level.
Besides the Immortal World Will, Chu Kuangren’s attention was on a rune that was hovering in the air. It was the rune left behind by the Blooded Nine Crow after he died.
With that, he took the rune and looked at it.
“Hm. This rune is quite interesting. It’ll make a great item for me to study,” Chu Kuangren mumbled.
That spatial rune was a top-tier Gilded Immortal Permanent Rune. If he could learn its secrets, his proficiency in Runic Dao would surely improve.
Although he rarely used runes in battle, he would never give up on any opportunity to improve himself.
With the Blooded Nine Crow dead, his cultivator goons also took off like headless chickens.
“I’m deeply grateful for your help, Brother Chu.”
Tushan Fei Yu came to thank Chu Kuangren with a fist salute.
“No worries.”
Chu Kuangren shook his head. “I’ll be bringing Lil Fox to visit the Tushan Mountain a few days from now. I’ll be counting on you to take care of our stay there, Sister Tushan.”
“Definitely, Brother Chu.”
Tushan Fei Yu looked at Chu Kuangren with a serious expression.
‘Having an overpowered Heavenly Champion like him visit the Tushan Mountain is no small matter.’
‘I must notify the higher-ups about this as soon as I return.’
‘There must not be any delays regarding this.’
Following that, Chu Kuangren and his party went back to the Hundred Academy.
Several days later, inside the Hundred Academy’s Planquilon Academy, Chu Kuangren was standing beneath the Fusang Tree, looking at its red trunk and golden leaves, while pondering something.
He pointed out a sword hand sign and slashed toward the Fusang Tree. Then, the number of leaves and branches he sliced off immediately hovered in the air.
“Now, I shall try out this Wooden Puppet Refining Technique,” Chu Kuangren said with excitement.
