Chapter 1495 – 1495 A Blast of Sword Qi Destroying the Heavenly Soldiers, Weak and Helpless, One Slash Killing Three Prodigies
Chu Kuangren stood firm on the spot, completely unscathed.
He swung his sleeve and released a vast Immortal’s Core energy to disperse the violent tempest.
Then, with a step forward, he appeared before the Qinghua Imperial Commander. He raised his finger and pointed at his opponent’s face.
There was no Immortal’s Core energy contained in his fingers, and it seemed extremely common, like an ordinary person pointing at someone.
!!
However, it was the ordinary point of the finger that enveloped the Qinghua Imperial Commander with immense fear because he could not dodge it!
Enraged, he channeled his Immortal’s Core to the limit and blocked his sword in front of his chest. The finger landed precisely on the azure sword’s blade.
Clunk!
The sound of metal breaking echoed.
Countless Daoist patterns shone from the blade as if it was giving its best to defend against Chu Kuangren’s finger.
Following that, the sword started to distort, and its blade struck the Qinghua Imperial Commander. Both he and the sword were sent flying backward, crashing onto the walls of Laojun City.
Laojun City’s walls were built using all kinds of Immortal Metal and enforced using countless mystical Daoist patterns. Hence, it could be said as indestructible.
However, when the Qinghua Imperial Commander crashed into it, a large crater appeared, and the cracks spread like a massive spider web.
Splat!
Blood spurted from the Qinghua Imperial Commander’s mouth. His chest caved in terribly, countless bones were broken, and the Daoist patterns on his Immortal body started to dim out to the point of fading.
It was just one finger!
One finger and it left the Qinghua Imperial Commander severely injured!
The jaw-dropping scene left everyone speechless.
The one that Chu Kuangren struck was no common sky-pride or Prodigy.
He was the Imperial Commander of the Immortal Hall and the Qinghua Imperial Commander with the Seventh-grade Gilded Immortal cultivation base!
Moreover, he ranked ninth on the Immortal Ranking!
The man was considered the top among the younger generation, yet he was sent flying and was severely injured by a single point from Chu Kuangren’s finger!
Chu Kuangren’s power was traumatizing!
“Weak. I thought twenty years later, you people would’ve improved a lot. However, it seems like before me you guys are still as weak as paper,” Chu Kuangren exclaimed with a shake of his head.
The Qinghua Imperial Commander, who was left embedded in the wall, reacted with a horrified look on his pale face. Then, when he heard Chu Kuangren, he felt deeply insulted.
“Chu Kuangren, you spoke too soon! I still have my trump card!”
As the Qinghua Imperial Commander shouted, shimmering runes shot out from his body.
The runes intertwined and formed countless mystical avatars above him.
They were the Heavenly Kings who wielded treasured swords, Godly Generals who rode the fiercest stallions, and Heavenly Soldiers who mastered all four elements of wind, fire, lightning, and water.
The sky was instantly shrouded by countless runed-formed Heavenly soldiers.
The Qinghua Imperial Commander had summoned an army to his aid!
“Oh, these are all Rune Puppets. It’s a rather interesting technique with the rune,” Chu Kuangren said with a nod.
“Go!”
The Qinghua Imperial Commander bellowed and sent tens of thousands of Heavenly soldiers charging at Chu Kuangren.
Some controlled lightning, some controlled water, some rode the wind, and some charged forward with fire. Some even wielded Immortal Swords and were equipped with Godly Weapons and halberds. All the soldiers were unique from one another.
Even a Ninth-grade Gilded Immortal would be defeated by such a massive attack.
At that moment, Immortal Sparks started to shimmer around Chu Kuangren, who stood with his hands behind his back and took a deep breath.
Spiritual energy gathered upon him rapidly as though a whale was sucking in water. As the spiritual energy converged in his body, it was converted into a massive amount of Immortal’s Core energy.
Then, he blew the condensed Immortal’s Core energy outward, forming countless sword qi in the air that soon condensed into a tidal wave of sword qi.
The sword qi wreaked havoc in its wake, leaving the void shattered and destroying Heavenly soldiers.
In the blink of an eye, the army of Heavenly soldiers that the Qinghua Imperial Commander summoned was destroyed by a single breath from Chu Kuangren.
“Is he even human anymore?”
Everyone was at a loss of words when they witnessed the scene.
“We were all wrong. We thought that being trapped in the furnace for twenty years might halt his cultivation progress, but now, it seems like he’s even stronger than before.”
“Someone, please tell me what just happened?!”
“He inhaled and absorbed all the spiritual energy in the realm before exhaling and spitting out an endless sword qi forward, destroying tens of thousands of Heavenly soldiers! Damn, he’s really a Peerless Prodigies!”
The strength that Chu Kuangren displayed completely obliterated the younger generations’ sky-prides and Prodigies.
It reminded people of the saying that circulated in the Immortal World twenty years ago: the maddest man in the entire universe!
“So this is the strength of the one who overpowered all the sky-prides?!”
Those who did not get the chance to see Chu Kuangren’s glory back in the day were intimidated.
Further away, the Qinghua Imperial Commander was shocked when he saw Chu Kuangren annihilating his army of Heavenly soldiers with just a single breath.
How could such a monster be alive in the universe?
An indescribable fear enveloped him as he stared at the man in white.
“Jiuling, bring me away immediately!” the Qinghua Imperial Commander shouted at his mount.
However, the nine-headed lion was already on its knees, trembling in fear like a lost kitten. No matter how loud the Qinghua Imperial Commander shouted, it dared not lift a foot.
“Good little kitty.”
Chu Kuangren went over and patted one of its heads.
The nine-headed lion was a terrifying yokai beast. Any common cultivators that got near would be deemed hostile, and only a handful of people were worthy enough to be recognized as its master.
Even the Qinghua Imperial Commander invested a lot of effort to tame it.
Now, the terrifying yokai beast was kneeling like an obedient cat, allowing Chu Kuangren to pat its head at will. It trembled and dared not resist at all. The ferocity that it used to bear was long gone.
It felt helpless, tiny, and weak before absolute power.
“Damn it!” the Qinghua Imperial Commander cursed. He knew he had lost his mount, so he forcefully channeled his Immortal’s Core, grabbed his sword, and slipped away in a stream of light.
Many sky-prides were in awe when they saw the scene.
Be it twenty years ago or twenty years later, Chu Kuangren’s enemies always had only two options: die or flee.
“You are not running away this time,” Chu Kuangren said.
Countless silvery-white Daoist patterns had somehow encaged the space without anyone knowing.
It was the Spacetime Sealing Technique!
As the technique sealed space and time, the Qinghua Imperial Commander felt extremely heavy and could barely move a muscle. It was as if he had fallen into a swamp.
“The Immortal Hall is behind the little incident with the Bagua Furnace, am I right? So, I’d take a little interest from you first,” Chu Kuangren said as he pointed his sword hand sign forward.
A dazzling sword ray shot out and blasted the Qinghua Imperial Commander into a cloud of blood mist.
The second Imperial Commander of the Immortal Hall had been killed by the hands of Chu Kuangren, following the first being the Holy Violet Imperial Commander.
Further away, Ji De, Third Dragon Crown Prince, and Hen Changtian were petrified. They cautiously stared at Chu Kuangren and dared not make any rash move.
“You people’s energy presences are on Lan Yu’s injuries as well, so it means you guys attacked her,” Chu Kuangren said.
“Damn it!”
Horrified, the three of them wanted to leave.
However, all they saw was a sword ray flashing across the void before everything in front of them turned dark.
Before anyone could react, three heads flew into the sky before falling onto the ground in succession.
The sword ray at Chu Kuangren’s fingers faded, and he remained calm as if he had not killed three Prodigies but three ants.
