Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

Chapter 277 - The First City, Only One Can Lead The Sky-Prides, Kuangren Of The Black

Chapter 277: The First City, Only One Can Lead The Sky-Prides, Kuangren Of The Black Heaven It Shall Be!

“Sect Leader, please enlighten us.”

Nangong Huang, Murong Xuan, and Jun Yi unleashed their Daoist Rhymes together towards Chu Kuangren. They really did want to mentally spar with him.

Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren raised an eyebrow when he saw that unfold.

“Rude.”

After he gave that remark, an incredibly terrifying Sword-based Daoist Rhyme started to emanate from him.

In face of such magnitude of Daoist Rhyme, the Daoist Rhyme from Nangong Huang and his group could not even exert any effect at all and it shattered almost instantly.

The group of people exchanged glances with shocked expressions on their faces.

“Just because you guys have beaten one of my clones, you guys now think you have the ability to take me on already? You guys still have a long way to go and so much more training to be done.”

Chu Kuangren smiled faintly.

The few of them could do nothing but respond with a bitter smile.

They believe that no matter how much training they get, they would never be on Chu Kuangren’s level.

Two days passed by very quickly.

Chu Kuangren and his crew had now arrived at the First City of White Tiger Domain!

“Is that the First City? It looks magnificent.”

A distance away, they could see that incredibly majestic fort. There were even a few floating isles atop of it.

There were also a myriad of exotic strange beasts flying in the sky. Meanwhile, the streets were filled with people, and all kinds of tall buildings and palaces stretched as far as the eyes could see.

This was the First City.

The First City’s name itself was enough to explain its extraordinariness. It was the most spectacular fort known in all of Firmament Star. It was the base for many different forces and organizations, and with that itself, it was like a country on its own.

Even the Capital City of the Royal Azure Dynasty could not compare to this city.

The First City was buzzing, especially on days like these. Besides the local forces from White Tiger Domain itself, sage orthodoxies from the other three domains had come here to participate in the Four Domains Sky-Pride Championship.

The First City was currently amongst the headlines, grabbing much attention for organizing the event, and had gathered the world’s best elites all in one place.

Four Seas Inn.

This inn was the biggest in the First City. There was not one empty seat inside this inn at the moment as numerous cultivators from all the great orthodoxies were gathered here, chatting in camaraderie.

“I can’t believe Tempest Mountain is taking part in the championship this time too.”

“Hah, how can we be absent from this grand occasion?”

“I heard that the strongest sage orthodoxy in White Tiger Domain would be amongst the participants too. I think they have a good chance of winning.”

“Not necessarily. I heard that the Overlord Sage Tribe from Black Warrior Domain has sent their delegation here too. It seems like they’re set on not going home empty-handed this time.”

“Overlord Sage Tribe? They are indeed a strong contender for the first place.”

“The championship will be quite lively this time. Aside from Sky Emperor Palace and Overlord Sage Tribe, Heaven Chord Sect has also sent their delegation.”

“Heaven Chord Sect from the Scarlet Phoenix Domain?”

“Surely.”

Inside the inn, everyone was engrossed in discussions about the championship.

Just then, one of the waiters inside the inn looked out the window and his jaw suddenly dropped. His face was full of shock. “What… what is that?!”

The people at the inn looked in the direction of his gaze.

All they saw was that in the air above the First City, an enormous black Fairy boat was descending from the clouds. Wherever it passed by, the clouds would be stirred into turbulence.

Most of the people who saw that were dumbfounded.

They had never seen this kind of Fairy boat before.

“Oh my gosh, is that a Fairy boat?”

“Which sect or organization is this?”

“Hah, that’s the Illusive Mirage.”

At this point, an old man in a cloak who sat by the window suddenly said.

The people looked at him, puzzled at what he just said.

“The Illusive Mirage? What’s that?”

“Legend has it that a long time ago, there was a dynasty called the Qin Dynasty. To appease the fairies, the Great Qin Emperor ordered the entire nation’s workforce to build a one-of-a-kind, peerless Emperor Weapon Fairy boat, which was then named… the Illusive Mirage!”

Everyone gasped upon hearing that.

“This Illusive Mirage is an Emperor Weapon?”

“Not exactly. The Illusive Mirage had long been lost. This current version we see here is a duplicate,” the old man in the cloak said with a laugh.

This made the crowd even more baffled.

If a mere duplicate was already so majestic, then what would the real and original Illusive Mirage look like then? All of them could not help but shrug at that thought.

“As compared to the Illusive Mirage’s origins, I think the person on it now should bring more interest. I believe all of you have heard of him,” the cloaked old man suddenly added.

“Who?”

“The most talked about person in the world today.”

“Most talked about person?”

Everyone frowned.

It was currently the Era of Great Battles, and there were many famed elites and sky-prides. There were too many people who fit that description of the ‘most talked about person’.

“Only one can lead the sky-prides, Kuangren of the Black Heaven it shall be!”

The cloaked old man then added enthusiastically.

With this word of his, surely everyone would know by now who he was talking about.

“It’s him!”

“I can’t believe that he’s actually here.”

“He’s participating in the championship? Does he still plan to leave everyone else mercy?”

“Don’t worry. There is a rule stating clearly that a Sect Leader would not be allowed to participate in the Sky-Pride Championship. I heard that this regulation was even highlighted in red ink on the rulebook and that this regulation was specially set for Chu Kuangren.”

“The most talked about person at the moment. Heh, I should’ve known that it’s this guy. In this day and age, I don’t think there’s anyone who doesn’t know Chu Kuangren!”

One of the cultivators lamented.

Then, he looked toward the cloaked old man. Something told him that this old man in front of him was not just anybody, so he asked curiously, “May I ask for your name, dear Sir?”

The cloaked old man replied with a mysterious smile. “Divine interventions are not to be revealed simply.”

The reply alone was enough to scare the cultivator to wits. When he realized this old man’s identity, he wasted no time in giving him a respectful bow.

“Greetings, my respected Divine Predictor.”

…

Atop of the First City’s sky.

A few people glided past the sky and landed in front of The Mirage. These few people were the organizers of the championship this time — the administrators of the First City. When they arrived in front of the Illusive Mirage, they too were shocked at the sheer magnificence of this Fairy boat.

Soon after, one of the people announced loudly, “I am the First City’s Admin Wang Yue. I’d like to cordially invite the Black Heaven Sect Leader to show himself.”

Chu Kuangren walked out with Nangong Huang and the rest of his crew.

With just one look, Admin Wang was able to identify who amongst them was Chu Kuangren. It was no wonder because Chu Kuangren’s appearance was too extraordinary. His looks were another level above the likes of Nangong Huang and Murong Xuan.

“Sect Leader Chu, nice to meet you. We’ve prepared the accommodation for all the sage orthodoxies who are participating. Please, follow us.”

Admin Wang said.

“Alright, thank you.”

Chu Kuangren smiled gently before he deposited the Illusive Mirage back into his Yin and Yang Ring.

They followed the few administrators to a cluster of pagodas and buildings, where they pointed at a few of the pagodas and said, “This region will be the accommodation for the Black Heaven Sect. We have our First City servants on duty in there. If you have anything, just order them to help you.”

“Many thanks.”

“You’re welcome.”

Chu Kuangren and his group of people entered the pagoda, then looked for their respective spots to take a break.

In the meantime, news of Chu Kuangren’s arrival at the First City had swiftly reached all parts of the city, and numerous forces had received this intel very quickly.

Some of the forces even went straight to the organizing committee to repeatedly confirm whether Chu Kuangren would take part in the championship.

Their minds could only be at peace when they had obtained a clear answer.

“Phew, as long as Chu Kuangren is not participating in this championship, there’s still hope for us to win it all.”

“Luckily the Sect Leader is not allowed to participate in the championship. Otherwise, there’s nothing to compete. Everyone would be better off just surrendering to the Black Heaven Sect.”

“Chu Kuangren… The Illusive Mirage, this fella really did make a grand entrance. His arrival has drawn everyone’s attention in the whole city.”

On the very next day, the Divine Predictor’s remark on Chu Kuangren had also rapidly spread throughout the city, although that remark was merely doggerel… Only one can lead the sky-prides, Kuangren of the black Heaven it shall be!

Just this one sentence alone drove Chu Kuangren’s name to the very top over all other sky-prides.
