Chapter 312: Six Sages Join The Battle, Chu Kuangren Is Excited
Chu Kuangren had always been a dominating figure.
For the past few years, having several Sages fallen in his hands had created a discomforting concern amongst many sage orthodoxies.
However, no one had the courage nor excuse to make Chu Kuangren pay.
Now.
They had a valid reason to do so.
After winning the championship, Chu Kuangren had proceeded to create chaos in the First City. The sage orthodoxies could use the perfect excuse of assisting the Third Prefect to defend the city and kill Chu Kuangren in the process.
Besides, the Sages of the First City, Sky Emperor Palace, Thunder Falcon Tribe, and Sage Overlord Tribe joining forces to attack Chu Kuangren had granted many Sages the courage they needed. After all, how would Chu Kuangren be able to defend himself against this many Sages?
At this thought, many Sages were tempted.
It was especially true for the sage orthodoxies who owed countless soulstones to Chu Kuangren in their previous bets. If Chu Kuangren was dead, they would be unshackled from that obligation!
“Chu Kuangren, it’s a shame that a stellar youngster like you would have such bad manners and impulsiveness. This cannot be tolerated. I hope you don’t blame us for retaliating.”
A Sage emerged from the void. It was none other than the Third Forefather Linghu. Similar to the other sage orthodoxies, the Linghu clan was also a rival of the Black Heaven Sect.
“If you want to fight me, just step out and cut the nonsense.”
Chu Kuangren said with his mouth twitching.
“Hmph, Chu Kuangren, you only have yourself to blame. Your irresponsible act has made everyone turn against you.” Another Sage stood out. It was the Tempest Mountain’s Sage — yet another sage orthodox that had strained relations with the Black Heaven Sect.
Chu Kuangren calmly looked across the Sages who had emerged from their hiding. “Sage Overlord Tribe, Thunder Falcon Tribe, Linghu clan, Tempest Mountain, the First City, and Sky Emperor Palace... Is there anyone else who’d like to clear their issues with me?”
The remaining Sages exchanged looks but they did not step out. Although some were tempted to leverage on this opportunity to rid Chu Kuangren for good, there was still a considerable risk to this matter. The consequences would be grave should they fail.
They did not wish to tread lightly into the danger zone.
“Elder Chu, I shall lend you my hand!”
At that moment, the School of White Lotus’s Sage suddenly stood out.
She had also hesitated for a moment.
Nonetheless, she decided to assist Chu Kuangren at the last minute.
Six Sages against Chu Kuangren!
From the crowd’s perspectives, there was no way Chu Kuangren would come out alive, not even with the School of White Lotus’s Sage’s help.
However, the School of White Lotus and Black Heaven Sect were diplomatic partners. If the White Lotus Sage did not offer her help, it would likely mark the end of their alliances.
It was a gamble on the School of White Lotus’s Sage’s part!
A gamble that Chu Kuangren would somehow triumph in the face of such adversity. If Chu Kuangren succeeded, it would strengthen the alliance between their orthodoxies.
“Haha, I’m truly thankful for your kind intention, Daoist Sister. However, this is a matter that concerns only the Black Heaven Sect, so it’s best that I resolve this alone!”
Then, Chu Kuangren deflected the Self Descendant Sword in his hand and the surrounding three hundred and sixty-five swords were immediately aimed at the six Sages.
“Come, let me see what all you Sages are made of.”
Chu Kuangren grinned fearlessly.
In fact, there was even a glimmer of excitement in his eyes!
Lunatic!
‘This bastard’s definitely a lunatic!’
One of the Sages thought to himself.
To fight a Sage with a cultivation level below the Sage Realm was incomprehensible, yet Chu Kuangren was glimmering with excitement. If he was not a lunatic, what else could he be?!
In the First City, many cultivators were closely watching the situation too.
They were all utterly dumbfounded.
A single cultivator versus six Sages!
Never had they imagined that they would one day witness such a scene.
The sky-prides also felt a sense of indescribable frustration growing in them. They understood that Chu Kuangren’s level was not one they would achieve for the foreseeable future.
“Chu Kuangren, how’s he so daring?!”
“Fighting six Sages at once despite not being a Sage yet. Only a lunatic like Chu Kuangren can pull off such a feat.”
“This b*stard’s way too scary.”
As the spectators gazed upon the white-clothed figure in the air, they were struggling to comprehend how ambitious that seemingly ordinary figure was!
In the crowd.
Lan Yu, Nangong Huang, and the other members had also seen Chu Kuangren.
They simply stared at this figure with an intense passion in their eyes.
“Did the Sect Leader do all of these for us?”
Jin Feiyan murmured.
“That’s right.”
Lan Yu nodded and continued, “Judging by Master’s personality, he definitely won’t just sit aside and watch if we’re treated unfairly.”
“Sect Leader...”
Nangong Huang and the other members were overwhelmed with emotions.
They were touched, resentful, and angry with themselves...
They were touched by what Chu Kuangren did for them, and resentful against the shameless acts of the Sky Emperor Palace and the First City. Moreover, they were angry with themselves.
They were angry that they were too weak to do anything.
They could only watch from the side as Chu Kuangren was out there protecting them. If they were stronger, would Chu Kuangren still have to face this all by himself?
Lan Yu shared the same sentiment too.
Never did she feel such a strong desire to become more powerful.
...
Up in the air, Chu Kuangren was fighting against the six Sages!
Once he activated his sword formation, the Thunder Falcon Tribe Sage immediately retrieved a black ore and hurled it into the air.
The ore sparkled with electricity before it generated a powerful magnetic force that severely limited Chu Kuangren’s control over his sword formation. His swords were trembling in the air.
“Oh, it’s a Prime Magnet!”
“No, this is a Purified Prime Magnet!”
Chu Kuangren studied the object closely.
A normal Prime Magnet would require several hundred kilograms in mass to disrupt his sword formation. It was the same technique the Shang clan had used previously. However, the Prime Magnet that the Thunder Falcon Sage used was all but a small piece.
The object did not even weigh one kilogram, let alone several hundred kilograms.
However, the magnetic force it emitted was far more disruptive than the one he had previously encountered in the Shang Clan, so it was no ordinary Prime Magnet.
It was made from the most precious elements in a Prime Magnet — a Purified Prime Magnet!
This Purified Prime Magnet was a treasure that was at least a Sage-grade or above.
“Chu Kuangren, we’ve studied your abilities in detail. Do you really think we would come unprepared?”
The Thunder Falcon Tribe Sage laughed.
The other Sages had also noticed the opportunity as their eyes lit up.
“The sword formation is restricted, and his combat strength has been reduced. Use this opportunity to defeat him!” Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang said loudly.
Third Forefather Linghu was the first to attack.
With his finger as his sword, Third Forefather Linghu channeled copious amounts of Daoist Rhymes into a frightening sword shadow and unleashed it upon Chu Kuangren.
The sword attack was enough to create a deafening blast in the void as if it was tearing it apart.
“Brilliant Heaven Shaking Punch!” Graygrill Sage had also unleashed a fist attack, channeling his strength qi into a destructive black fist qi and rained his power onto Chu Kuangren!
“Blue Dragon Sword Art!” As the Tempest Mountain Sage wielded his sword, a destructive sword qi transformed into the shape of a dragon. Along with his Sage Daoist Rhymes, it charged towards Chu Kuangren.
The three Sages attacked in unison, unleashing a boundless amount of force upon their enemy.
Although Chu Kuangren’s sword formation was restricted, surges of mythical Daoist Rhymes exploded from his body, conjuring a garden of white lotuses in the realm.
It was the Sage Ruler Technique, the White Lotus Light of Purification!
The White Lotuses contained remarkable defensive abilities and had managed to dissolve the first two sword and fist attacks. However, it was still not enough to defend against all three Sage attacks.
A sword qi breached through the defensive barrier and struck Chu Kuangren on his chest.
The impact blasted Chu Kuangren away and he smashed into one of the floating islands. At that moment, the entire floating island shook violently.
As debris clouded the entire sky, the spectators watched intently at the crashing site.
Did the Sages succeed?
