Chapter 1452: You Are All Nothing But Bumpkins, Zhuanxu’s Successor, Shennong Hundred Herbal Pill
“Golden Crow Pseudo-Forefather, do you dare to fight me?”
The cold voice echoed throughout the void, followed by a domineering Celestial Demon qi erupting into a black light. The stream of black light was blasted toward the Celestial Tablet.
The whole tablet shook, even the space around trembled. A name appeared on the table — Jue Wushen.
“It’s him! The top Prodigy of the Celestial Demon Tribe! He who once rivaled the Mountain Ghoul Divine Daoist!”
!!
“He’s here too…”
Jue Wushen arrived proudly with his head up. His lightning-sharp eyes scanned over all the sky-prides present.
Behind him were Golden Jade Immortal Sparks, shimmering across the sky. Its brightness shadowed even the stars in the sky.
A slender figure gradually emerged from the Immortal Sparks.
Fair skin, slender physique, long silky hair that draped over her shoulder like a waterfall, her dignified presence resembled that of a supreme Immortal Queen!
It was Yu Zhi, the Jade Pool Maiden Sage!
Yu Zhi’s arrival sparked a heated discussion among the cultivators.
Hellion Temple King’s successor, Xuanyuan’s successor, the Golden Crow Pseudo-Forefather, all reacted strangely at her arrival.
“The Honorable Supreme Immortal Physique, the Golden Jade Pool Immortal Physique. She already possessed the power to reign over the Immortal World.”
“You’re right. She is not to be underestimated.”
Beside Yu Zhi was Qing Feng, and when she saw Chu Hong, she went up to say hi.
Yu Zhi nodded politely at Chu Kuangren.
“How are you?”
“I’m doing fine.”
Jue Wushen came to Chu Kuangren with a bow.
He then looked at the Golden Crow Pseudo-Forefather and repeated what he said earlier, “Golden Crow Pseudo-Forefather, dare you to fight me?”
The Golden Crow Pseudo-Forefather’s expression shifted as he fell into silence.
Jue Wushen’s powerful energy presence matched even Xuanyuan’s successor. In addition to the Chaos Celestial Demon Physique, the Golden Crow Pseudo-Forefather has no confidence in winning the battle.
“I decline.”
The Golden Crow Pseudo-Forefather declined on the spot!
It shocked everyone as they assumed the Golden Crow Pseudo-Forefather was afraid of fighting.
“You did well.” The Hellion Temple King’s successor nodded. “Our target is Chu Kuangren’s true self, we should not be wasting our energy here.”
“We must win Chu Kuangren this time no matter what!” the Golden Crow Pseudo-Forefather said.
For the sake of the plan, he discarded his pride and declined the challenge from Jue Wushen. Others assumed that he was afraid of fighting Jue Wushen.
“Hmph. What about you people?” Jue Wushen sized up the Hellion Temple King’s successor and Xuanyuan’s successor.
However, no one answered his challenge.
“You call yourself Prodigies?” Jue Wushen scoffed.
Chu Kuangren felt strange about their decline. “They are all top Prodigies. There’s no way they are this afraid. Aside from the others, Xuanyuan’s successor, the Golden Crow Pseudo-Forefather, and the Hellion Temple King’s successor are quite powerful. They should have a fifty percent chance to win against Jue Wushen in a fight. Why aren’t they accepting the challenge?
“Unless they are preparing something and cannot afford to be disqualified halfway… Their target is me!”
Chu Kuangren connected all the dots in his mind and finally realized what they were up to. A smile appeared on his face. “Interesting.”
Since Xuanyuan’s successor and the others refused to fight, Jue Wushen paused his challenge invitation.
Chu Hong, Lan Yu, and the others continued to challenge other sky-prides.
Three days went by in the blink of an eye.
On this day, after Xuanyuan’s successor had just defeated a sky-pride, Jue Wushen came to him and challenged him again.
“Xuanyuan’s successor, do you dare to fight me?”
“I decline!”
Xuanyuan’s successor’s expression turned grim before he turned around.
“You have declined my challenge for the third time now. If you decline me the next time, you will lose the right to stand on this ring!” Jue Wushen said.
“Don’t worry. If you challenge me again, I will let you know the taste of defeat.”
“Hmph! You think I wouldn’t know, but you people keep declining my challenge because you people are saving up for something against my King,” Jue Wushen scoffed.
After observing for a few days, he had a hunch that Xuanyuan’s successor and his gang were preparing something huge.
He wore a contemptuous expression and said, “Too bad. No matter how much you people prepared, when my King arrives in the ring, you people are nothing but a bunch of bumpkins! All it takes is one attack for my King to defeat all of you!”
Xuanyuan’s successor clenched his fists tightly. Killing intent overflowed in his eyes. “You speak too soon about the outcome. You really think Chu Kuangren can forever be invincible?”
“My King has never lost a battle. What else can you say about that?” Jue Wushen said. He admired Chu Kuangren from the bottom of his heart, and his eyes even had a hint of fanaticism when he mentioned his King.
Xuanyuan’s successor felt terrible upon hearing Jue Wushen.
Jue Wushen was as strong as himself, yet he respected and admired Chu Kuangren like a God.
In other words, Jue Wushen hinted that Xuanyuan’s successor was no match for Chu Kuangren.
‘No! I cannot afford to be moved! My Daoist’s core must remain stern!’
“Chu Kuangren will face defeat this time,” Xuanyuan’s successor said coldly before he left.
Buzz!
Suddenly, his communication jade scroll buzzed.
“A message from the sect?”
Surprised, Xuanyuan’s successor opened it up and was intrigued by the message. “Zhuanxu’s successor has appeared and is currently on the way to the Interstellar Arena.”
The Human Emperor Sect’s objective was to search for all Human Emperor’s legacy.
Amongst the current generation of Human Emperor’s successors, Xuanyuan’s successor remained the strongest and he announced his presence to the world. There were a few more who had yet to show themselves to the public, including Zhuanxu’s successor.
Zhuanxu’s successor could no longer sit back and watch as he wanted to fight for the final opportunity of the Interstellar Arena.
On top of that, he was on a mission to deliver something to Xuanyuan’s successor.
A while later, a black light soared across the starry sky and arrived on a nameless planet.
Xuanyuan’s successor had been waiting for a while now.
“You’re here.”
Before Xuanyuan’s successor was a young man in long black robes. He bore a frosty expression and was surrounded by black streams of water.
The black watery stream looked terrifying as each drop of it weighed a planet.
“This is the item that the sect wants me to give to you.”
Zhuanxu’s successor gave Xuanyuan’s successor a golden pill. His frosty expression showed a hint of jealousy.
“Shennong Hundred Herbal Pill! I didn’t think it would exist!”
Xuanyuan’s successor’s eyes gleamed in anticipation.
The Shennong Hundred Herbal Pill was a legendary pill created by the Flame Emperor, Shennong. It was said that the taker of the pill would have a chance to break through in a matter of days.
The more talented the taker, the better the effect.
“The sect discovered this from Shennong’s ruins. Other than that, the sect also found an ancient inheritance of Shennong. They are choosing the one candidate to receive it.”
“It’s fortunate for the sect,” Xuanyuan’s successor said with a nod.
He then explained the situation with Chu Kuangren to Zhuanxu’s successor. “Interested to join us?”
“Chu Kuangren? The sect has been watching him for a while now and according to my knowledge, the higher-ups had the intention of roping him in. I would like to meet him myself.”
“Great. Then you should go to the Interstellar Arena while I refine the pill.”
After leaving his instructions with Zhuanxu’s successor, Xuanyuan’s successor started his cultivation.
He looked at the Shennong Hundred Herbal Pill with utmost anticipation. “Chu Kuangren, when I come out from my cultivation, you and I will fight!”
