Chapter 381: Striking A Palm On Ravengale Island, How Should This Matter Be Settled
Tremendous amounts of spiritual power gathered and formed into a gigantic vortex above Ravengale Island. All the cultivators on the island had felt its incredible aura. Even the only Sage there had sensed it too.
“This aura, can it possibly be…”
The Sage of the Ravengale Island, the old man with a talon-shaped nose who previously went to demand the Ravenblade Sage’s corpse from the School of White Lotus, suddenly opened his eyes.
He stared into the skies above the Ravengale Island with a face full of horror.
There was no way he would mistake that particular type of aura!
“Godd*mnit, why is he here of all places?!”
The talon-shaped nose old man cursed and hurriedly flew into the air.
In the sky, a vast and majestic Buddhist Light radiated from the spiritual power that Chu Kuangren was channeling and formed into a huge golden palm sign which came down to the island!
The whole Ravengale Island was already trembling violently before the palm sign landed.
“That palm energy is horrifying!”
“If that palm attack were to land on us, I don’t even know whether Ravengale Island will still exist after that. That’s bad. We have to stop that attack!”
The Ravengale Island cultivators were extremely terrified.
Some of the stronger ones among them teamed up and launched multiple bursts of Daoist Rhyme continuously at the incoming golden palm attack.
However, the golden palm was so powerful that it easily destroyed every surge of Daoist Rhyme that landed on it. It was unstoppable.
A thousand meters, seven hundred meters, five hundred meters, three hundred meters…
As the palm sign got closer to the island, its horrifying pressure instantly caused the weaker disciples to explode and die.
That surge of energy was hard to deal with even for Battle Monarchs and Honorables. All of them fell to the ground and hopelessly watched as the golden palm came crashing down.
During that moment of crisis, a figure suddenly appeared before everyone.
It was the talon-shaped nose old man.
He roared and channeled his spiritual power. When his Sage Daoist Rhyme erupted, it formed into a black barrier that blocked the incoming palm sign.
The whole island shook crazily the moment those two energies collided.
“I’m going to block this no matter what!”
The talon-shaped nose old man growled while he desperately channeled his spiritual power.
However, his black barrier eventually succumbed to the might of the incoming attack and shattered, allowing the golden palm sign to strike the island.
With an earth-shaking boom, the sea shook.
The palm sign hit the ground and smashed a hole on the ground, sending billows of smoke and dust everywhere. The area of impact was destroyed, and huge cracks were spreading outwards like a spiderweb…
A burst of wind from the aftershock sent countless cultivators flying…
Multiple shock waves spread outward from the island and into the seas…
By the time everything was calm, what everyone saw was the devastated island which had crumbled into pieces…
There was a large pit at the center of the remaining Ravengale Island. As countless waves crashed, numerous gigantic cracks spread outwards from the center before the whole Ravengale Island was split into dozens of pieces!
That scene shocked everyone.
They then looked at Chu Kuangren, who was dressed in white and hovering in the air with a resentful and fearful gaze!
The talon-shaped nose old man glared and screamed at Chu Kuangren in the air. “Chu Kuangren, what the h*ll do you want?!”
Chu Kuangren’s eyes were as cold as ice. “Shouldn’t I be the one asking that instead? When did your balls get so big, huh? How dare you lay your hands on items that belong to me!”
The talon-shaped nose old man froze for a while. He was slightly confused.
When did they touch Chu Kuangren’s items?
“What do you mean?”
“What do you think? Hand over the Cloudflow ore right now! Otherwise, I shall send Ravengale Island into the depths of the ocean once and for all!”
One of the elders among the crowd instantly turned pale the moment he heard Chu Kuangren’s words.
The disciple beside him was no better too. The former’s legs immediately went limb, and he slumped onto the ground with a horrified look on his face.
“Cloudflow ore; I can’t believe that the supply of Cloudflow ore belongs to you,” that Ravengale Island elder said in horror while he looked at Chu Kuangren.
The talon-shaped nose old man immediately returned to his senses the moment he heard that. He could not believe that the Ravengale Island people had taken something that belonged to Chu Kuangren.
“What is the meaning of this?!”
The talon-shaped nose old man remarked coldly towards that elder. By then, he already really wanted to skin the elder alive.
‘Knowing full well of Chu Kuangren’s tremendous strength and that he is someone who shouldn’t be provoked, why did you guys still go looking for trouble? Do you want to die?’
‘You guys can die for all I care, but why do you have to drag Ravengale Island into this!’
The talon-shaped nose old man felt very helpless.
“Honorable Sage, the story is this. When we were gathering sacrificial offerings, we came across a merchant ship which had a large pile of Cloudflow ore onboard…”
The elder then explained how things happened.
He looked at Lu Jia, who robbed the merchant ship, with a gaze that could swallow him whole. ‘Of all the ships you can rob, why did you guys have to go for the one with Chu Kuangren’s stuff onboard!’
Lu Jia’s face was so scared that his face paled and his heart was about to explode.
He then looked at the black-clad cultivator beside him with a similar gaze. It was all because of that person. If not for that person’s idea to rob the merchant ship, how would he and the Ravengale Island indirectly incur Chu Kuangren’s wrath?
The black-clad cultivator looked around but could not find anyone to blame.
He, too, looked at Lu Jia with a troubled expression.
‘Can you even blame me?!’
‘If you want to blame someone, go and blame the Serpent Deity. If not for its demand for sacrificial offerings, why would we need to kidnap people at sea in the first place? And to anger Chu Kuangren as well!’
“Hand over the items now.”
The talon-shaped old man ordered coldly.
The elder could only hand out a Yin and Yang Ring obediently. Chu Kuangren immediately sucked across the air and took it in his hand before he urged his spiritual thoughts to sense its contents.
His expression suddenly turned cold. “Are you messing with me? This Cloudflow ore is not all of it. I know there’s still more!”
The amount of Cloudflow ore he wanted was ten thousand tonnes, yet there were only seven or eight thousand tonnes in that Yin and Yang Ring. It was clear it was several thousand tonnes short.
“Sect Leader Chu, this is all the Cloudflow ore that we obtained. We’re really telling the truth,” that elder uttered innocently.
However, Lu Jia’s face paled even more, and his expression kept shifting.
He did not dare to come clean with the truth.
That was because he had secretly kept the remaining Cloudflow ore for himself. If he were to admit this, the elders would never let him off that easily.
If he remained, his elders and the Sage could deal with Chu Kuangren.
He was just a nobody after all.
He figured that Chu Kuangren would never blame him no matter what. Besides, that stash of Cloudflow ore was hidden so well that Chu Kuangren would never find it.
“Very well, it’s good to hear that you’re not lying to me.”
Chu Kuangren sneered.
He then activated his Treasure Locating Skill and headed in a certain direction.
The talon-shaped nose old man and others followed on as well.
Soon, everyone arrived at a quiet and empty mountain valley. One glance and there was nothing there at all.
However, Chu Kuangren came to a particular side of the mountain.
A streak of sword qi soon swept out from between his fingers.
When the sword qi landed on the mountain wall, it touched an invisible barrier, and the mountain wall revealed a cave.
It was a misleading formation technique that could conceal the cave entrance well.
Without careful observation, no one would notice it even if someone’s spiritual thought swept past.
Hidden inside was the remaining thousand tonnes of Cloudflow ore!
Lu Jia’s face turned even paler the moment he saw this.
That elder trembled with rage, and after he had put the pieces together, he looked towards Lu Jia and roared, “I’m going to f*cking kill you!”
The elder unleashed a palm attack, and Lu Jia instantly erupted into a mist of blood!
Chu Kuangren watched on with an indifferent look as he kept the remaining Cloudflow ore into his Yin and Yang Ring.
After that, he uttered, “First you guys steal my Cloudflow ore, and then you hide some of them even though I’ve come looking for them. So tell me, how should this matter be settled!”
