Chu Kuangren smiled. “I heard the Kunlun Immortal Hall has an Immortal-Slaying Platform. As a token of compensation, you can have it in the future.”
The Immortal-Slaying Platform was a supreme treasure in the Kunlun Immortal Hall. It was powerful and said it could slay tens of thousands of Immortals in the Immortal World.
However, Chu Kuangren made it sound like it was one of his possessions that he could simply give away.
His domineering tone was jaw-dropping, and his arrogance made many of the Immortal Hall’s sky-prides watching from the dark angry.
“What the hell? What does he think the Immortal-Slaying Platform is? Something that he can simply take?”
!!
“He’s arrogant.”
“Hmph! Our Kunlun’s Imperial Commander has yet to reveal himself to the world. When he does, he will teach Chu Kuangren a memorable lesson.”
Chu Kuangren and Jue Wushen were not bothered by the sky-prides and great ones watching from the dark.
Jue Wushen, on the other hand, was intrigued when he heard Chu Kuangren would compensate him with the Immortal-Slaying Platform. His eyes shimmered in interest as he said, “It’s a deal.”
“Of course.”
“Since you’re here, let the coronation begin.”
Jue Wushen revealed a crown in his hand.
The crown was forged using Celestial Demon qi. The many mystical runes and Daoist patterns carved into it granted it a profound presence.
At first glance, Chu Kuangren’s own Celestial Demon Physique pulsed in resonance as if it desired the crown.
“So this is the Celestial Demon Crown?” Chu Kuangren said.
“The one and only Celestial Demon Crown forged by Lord Xu Wu!”
Jue Wushen’s gaze showed reverence and respect for the crown.
The other Pseudo Celestial Demon cultivators were gazing at it passionately as well.
Chu Kuangren ordered Lil Ai to analyze the crowd as he stared at it.
“Alert. The Celestial Demon Crown contains a massive amount of refined Celestial Demon qi. The surface is also carved with enhancement runes…”
As the analysis went on, it revealed that the crown was an Arch Gilded Weapon, one of the best there was!
Chu Kuangren already possessed the Great Wasteland Halberd, an Embodier weapon, and the Black Annihilation Lotus, an Innate Source Supreme Treasure. Naturally, an Arch Gilded Weapon would not value much to him.
However, he had his eyes on the growth potential of the crown.
The crown had the potential to grow together with the Celestial Demon Physique, which made it the best weapon for a Celestial Demon Physique host.
‘The one who forged this crown must have a deep understanding of the Celestial Demon Physique. Xu Wu, one of the Seven Celestial Demons, eh? It has caught my interest,’ Chu Kuangren thought.
“Defeat me to win the crown. Then, you shall be our king!”
Jue Wushen took a step forward, and his Celestial Demon qi skyrocketed, wreaking havoc in the void.
Chu Kuangren stood on the spot and released his own Celestial Demon qi.
As his Celestial Demon qi clashed with the void energy, the platform beneath their feet crumbled completely.
The platform was built by the Celestial Demon Tribe specifically for the coronation, yet it could not make it through the process.
They used a sizable amount of rare Immortal Metals in the construction too.
However, Jue Wushen was beyond feeling bad about losing the platform. Instead, he concentrated on Chu Kuangren with frantic battle intents overflowing from his eyes.
Even though he knew he was not Chu Kuangren’s match, he had to give his best in the battle.
Only by defeating Jue Wushen in front of all the Pseudo Celestial Demon cultivators could Chu Kuangren convince everyone that he was capable of being their king.
Jue Wushen was prepared to be the stepping stone for Chu Kuangren to ascend to the throne.
“Void Annihilation!”
Jue Wushen’s Celestial Demon qi rumbled in the air and ripped the void into shreds as it was hurled toward Chu Kuangren.
Even so, Chu Kuangren continued to stand still.
Life-death intent swirled around him to block the void energy from harming him.
“Ray of Void!”
Jue Wushen channeled his Celestial Demon qi once more and shot out gray-colored rays into the void.
“Yin Yang Life and Death Symbol!”
The Life and Death Symbol emerged and blocked the Ray of Void easily.
“Calamity of Void!”
Jue Wushen cast an enchanted boundary, where void energy intertwined and wreaked havoc within the space.
Still, Chu Kuangren remained unmoved.
The Life and Death Symbol continued to release its boundless and dazzling Immortal Sparks, stopping the void energy before it could even move his sleeves.
The other Celestial Demon cultivators were awestruck by the scene.
Some of them had not seen Chu Kuangren fight before, and now witnessing the battle with their own eyes made their jaws drop.
“No way! Chu Kuangren is that powerful?”
“Brother Wushen’s attack is not doing anything!”
“This is beyond what I’ve seen!”
Only Lin Qiu, Ming Yifeng, and Yan Yun could remain calm because they had seen Chu Kuangren fight the Mountain Divine Daoist and knew how powerful he was.
“No matter how many times I’ve seen it, it still moves me. His power is really that of a monster,” Yan Yun exclaimed sentimentally.
“The king is invincible!”
Being the most arrogant of them all, Ming Yifeng stared at Chu Kuangren with frantic passion.
He had come Chu Kuangren’s most loyal admirer.
It was untrue to say Jue Wushen did not feel defeated or discouraged when his best attacks could not inflict any damage on Chu Kuangren and were all blocked with just a raise of a hand.
After all, he, too, was a top Prodigy and had his own pride to maintain.
“Chu Kuangren, how about this?”
Jue Wushen took a deep breath and channeled his Celestial Demon qi to the limit.
A pillar of Celestial Demon qi shot up into the sky, and the overflowing energy destroyed everything it touched.
“Void Art, Overworld Wither!”
That would be Jue Wushen’s ultimate attack.
Once used, all things in the realm would wither into nothingness.
The energy put a grim look on many of the sky-prides.
They could tell that a sliver of the void energy would be enough to destroy them.
The Celestial Demon qi shot up into the sky before gushing out from the void to flood Chu Kuangren.
Unless a top Prodigy, any other sky-pride, or even a common Prodigy, would die from that overwhelming attack.
“Universal Life-Death Cycle!”
Chu Kuangren raised his hand to activate the light from the divine life and the qi from the demonic death. Two drastically different energies intertwined in the void and formed the Life and Death Cycle that carried endless Immortal Sparks.
The spinning Life and Death Cycle could seemingly destroy all worlds!
Boom!
The life-death energy clashed with the void energy that could wither all life in the realm.
Following the collision, the land crumbled, and the sky shattered.
Dust storms shadowed even the sun, and endless energy streams scattered in all directions, destroying everything in their way.
Almost all the Celestial Demon cultivators were shocked.
As the endless sword qi swept across the land, two fields of swords appeared and blocked the shockwaves from reaching the crowd.
One of the sword fields was cast by Ye Zhu, and the other one was Chu Kuangren’s clone further away.
Ye Zhu shook his head sentimentally. “He’s just a clone, but I might not even be his match.”
“Be confident and remove the ‘might’,” Ming Yifeng said.
Ye Zhu’s lips twitched. He suddenly had the urge to recall his sword qi and left Ming Yifeng exposed to the shockwave.
Once the rumbling energy slowly faded and the endless dust storm settled, the realm returned to peace.
The crowd looked toward the crumbled platform and spotted a black figure and a white figure standing opposite each other.
Jue Wushen’s energy presence had withered, and he was in a wretched state after the clash.
Chu Kuangren, on the other hand, remained calm and nonchalant. His white robes were still void of dust, allowing him to keep his transcendental presence.
It was obvious who was the stronger one out of the two!
