Chapter 2139 Comprehend the Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique, Back To the Holy Radiant Church, Fight Ming Fei
Outside Myriad Arms City, multiple pairs of eyes were staring at Chu Kuangren.
They were all Primordials ranked in the top ten on the Primordial Leaderboard.
All of them reacted grimly to the scene.
Chu Kuangren had killed Liu Feng with just one slash, destroying a Grand Dao Supreme Saint with a Hongmeng Supreme Treasure.
The power that he displayed was more than enough to deter them.
"The first place on the leaderboard is indeed scary."
"That slash contained ridiculously powerful Primordial energy, but it also contained a lot of Dao, which is strange."
"I heard he just passed the Hongmeng Primordial Tribulation a while ago."
"He's a force to be reckoned with."
Like Liu Feng, they were here to challenge Chu Kuangren once they got a hold of information about him.
Now, Liu Feng's defeat deterred them and discouraged them from taking further action.
The strength Chu Kuangren displayed and his resolve to kill somehow struck fear in them.
"Liu Feng did not have the capabilities to test Chu Kuangren's full strength, but we got to see him in action. Now, we know."
"We can be more confident when we face him in the future."
"Let's go."
The cultivators left Myriad Arms City one after another.
Back in the city, when Chu Kuangren sensed the leaving crowd, he smiled. "Hmph. At least that witty bunch knows when to retreat."
Instead of giving chase, he continued his cultivation.
Now that the Hongmeng Leaderboard had appeared, the Great Hongmeng Universe had officially entered a new phase — a volatile one at that.
In order to maintain his own pace and secure his cultivation development, Chu Kuangren needed to be more powerful. Being a Primordial or a Grand Dao was not enough anymore. He must at least reach the Monarch class.
Time flew. Given Chu Kuangren's current cultivation realm, one cultivation session could last a few hundred to a thousand years.
Many years went by while he gained insights into the strike he unleashed during the Hongmeng Primordial Tribulation.
With the blessing of fortune, he could make more effective progress.
On that particular day, his eyes narrowed and released a sharp aura.
His eyes gleamed sharply as though they were blades.
Then, the void around him tore.
"I got it!"
He raised his hand to form a sword hand sign, and a stand of sword qi was fired from his finger.
The sword qi was no longer than three inches, but it contained the three thousand Daoist law energies that evolved from his Primordial energy.
All three thousand Daoist laws, including the Five Ways, Ying Yang, Bagua, Destiny, Spacetime, and more, were contained in the tiny sword qi.
From one to many, from the complicated to the simplest, it all came down to that sharp sword qi.
Its sharpness was unmatched. It was as if it could cut through time, fate, and everything in existence.
"Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique was the very first sword technique that I created. All Dao converges into one for a conquest of the realm… It's been a while," Chu Kuangren muttered.
Be it the Immortal Destruction Sword Qi or the Blade of Zhou, he had comprehended and mastered tens of thousands of sword techniques.
However, he had created and mastered the strongest sword technique from the very beginning. The only problem was that he did not continue developing the technique.
Now that the Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique was finally back in the spotlight again, its power was countless times stronger than it once was.
"Descendant Self, I bet you've missed this technique as well," Chu Kuangren said with a smile as he put his hand on the sword hilt at his waist.
The sword buzzed as if it was replying.
Chu Kuangren then conserved his sword qi and exited the room.
The city was still filled with scorching heat as the weaponsmiths continued forging all kinds of weapons.
Some were discussing what they should forge next.
Chu Kuangren left Ou Yenuo in charge of the city.
He planned to return to the Holy Radiant Church.
It had been a while since he visited.
…
When Chu Kuangren arrived at the Holy Radiant Church, he ran into the Radiant Left Sky King.
The Radiant Left Sky King narrowed his eyes and ridiculed, "Well, well, if it isn't this the Child of Light? I thought you moved to Myriad Arms City for good."
"Radiant Left Sky King, why the hurry? Where are you heading to?"
"Eliminate the heretics," the Radiant Left Sky King said.
Chu Kuangren's eyes gleamed when he heard the man. "Heretics?"
"The heretics who escaped Black Flame City."
"Oh, I see. I wish you all the best," Chu Kuangren said.
He showed no emotions on his face. It was as if he had no feelings for the Darkness Tribe.
In fact, other than Hei Xuan, he was not exactly close with the Darkness Tribe, and Yu Yan was an enemy to him.
After the Radiant Left Sky King left, Chu Kuangren ran into Ming Fei and the Radiant Goddess. They were enjoying the flowers in the garden.
The Radiant Goddess smiled happily when she saw Chu Kuangren. "First place on the Primordial Leaderboard, huh? You did not let me down."
"It's just the Primordial Leaderboard. It's nothing."
"Oh, being humble, I see. Very well."
Chu Kuangren knew what was going on.
The Radiant Goddess then glanced at Ming Fei.
Ming Fei tacitly nodded and walked to Chu Kuangren. "Draw your sword and fight me."
Chu Kuangren knew what was going on.
The Radiant Goddess wanted to test his strength.
"Very well. I have always wanted to see how strong the Radiant Right Sky King is."
Chu Kuangren was eager for the fight as well.
He, too, wanted to know how much of a strength difference there was between him and Ming Fei, someone second only to a Monarch.
The two of them went to a spacious ground within the church.
The Radiant Goddess swung her sleeve and summoned a light barrier to act as a battle ring for the two of them.
"Bring it on."
Ming Fei wielded her silver greatsword, looking frosty.
Chu Kuangren skipped the courtesy and attacked.
His figure flashed as he darted forward with his sword hand sign, unleashing a rapid sword ray that contained his Primordial energy. It was powerful enough to kill a common Grand Dao.
Ming Fei channeled the Radiant Dao's energy in her without flinching.
"Bang!"
Before the sword qi could reach her, it was shattered.
However, Chu Kuangren had gotten close to Ming Fei by then. He pointed his sword hand sign at her, and his sword qi gathered at the tip of his finger before he unleashed different sword techniques.
Different Daoist law energy fluctuations erupted. The different energy fluctuations seemingly conjured the images of all things in the world.
Ming Fei wielded her greatsword and continued channeling energy from her Radiant Dao. No matter how many techniques Chu Kuangren unleashed at her, her light remained radiant and bright.
"Radiant Judgment, Silver Light Overflow!" Ming Fei growled.
The greatsword shone brightly, and a silver sword ray shot out.
It surrounded her and shattered Chu Kuangren's sword qi one after another, forcing him back.
"Draw your sword," Ming Fei said.
"In that case, do watch out, Radiant Right Sky King."
Chu Kuangren drew his Descendant Self Sword.
With the sword in hand, his aura surged. The vast sword aura and Radiant Dao's energy erupted, hitting the light barrier around him.
He appeared before Ming Fei in the blink of an eye and slashed his sword at her.
"Clank!"
The swords clashed.
What followed was a competition of sword techniques.
With Lil Ai's help, Chu Kuangren was familiar with Ming Fei's technique, and he was able to match Ming Fei in terms of battle experience.
He even managed to predict her movements.
"Clank!"
Chu Kuangren landed a thrust at Ming Fei's abdomen.
The Radiant Goddess was rather surprised.
"Did he hit Ming Fei? Not bad."
"Bang!"
When the tip of the sword struck Ming Fei, her Radiant Dao's energy erupted.
Suddenly, everything inside the light barrier was covered with blinding light.
Chu Kuangren could see light shimmering at Ming Fei's abdomen, which meant that his thrust did not inflict any damage on her.
"Tsk. She covered herself with the Radiant Dao's energy, using it as her armor. The Right Sky King is indeed powerful."
Chu Kuangren clicked his tongue in awe.
