Chapter 491: Chu Kuangren’s Arrival, Still The Greatest Obstacle
“Those who bow before me shall prosper, while those that resist shall perish!”
“From this day onward, I shall be the master of the Firmament Star!”
The Demon Emperor’s proud voice echoed throughout the entire Firmament Star and plunged countless cultivators who heard it into despair.
At that moment, a cold thunder-like yell suddenly resounded through the whole area!
“Bullsh*t!”
That was when everyone saw a ten-kilometer-tall ancient Buddha statue suddenly appear above the Purgatory Forest.
Its vast and majestic Buddha Light radiated and shook the realm, cleansing the demonic qi which filled the air.
Within the radiating Buddhist Light, a golden Buddhist palm that contained incomparably terrifying energy slammed through the air and towards the Demon Emperor!
“Eh?”
The Demon Emperor’s expression slightly changed as he lifted his arm to channel his demonic qi to launch a palm attack in return. With that, his demonic qi formed a gigantic palm in the void before it struck out.
The moment the two incredible forces collided, great streaks of white lines appeared in the void. As if destruction was its sole purpose, the strength qi from the impact swept out and destroyed Purgatory Forest like never before. With smoke and dust filling more than half of the land, the scene looked like it was the end of the world.
The Boundary Emperors at that time were forced back hundreds of kilometers away. Even the Demon Emperor was pushed back several steps too.
The crowd of demonic cultivators’ pupils shrunk in horror.
‘The Demon Emperor was pushed back by a palm attack!!’
‘Who the h*ll is that?!’
“Invasion from the Demonic Realm? Ruling over the Firmament Star? You’ll have to get my permission first!”
The cold voice was accompanied by an incomparably domineering aura that spread everywhere.
A young man in white robes and black hair then slowly walked out from the void. Donned in a wide-sleeved robe, he had a gorgeous ancient sword strapped to his waist. His handsome appearance, otherworldly demeanor, and arrogant poise was the most unforgettable image the crowd had ever seen.
It was no other than Chu Kuangren, the best cultivator in the world!
“Chu Kuangren is here!”
“So he’s the Supreme Sage? He has such a powerful aura.”
A glimmer of hope lit up in the crowd of Boundary Emperor’s solemn eyes.
Upon seeing Chu Kuangren, the Demon Emperor’s expression instantly turned grim. “It’s you again!”
Everyone was surprised by those words.
It was as if the Demon Emperor knew Chu Kuangren.
Chu Kuangren was also slightly surprised. Hence, he activated his Eye of Revelation to find out the Demon Emperor’s information.
“Demon Emperor Pride, one of the seven Emperors of the Demonic Realm…”
“Current status – a clone of himself…”
Once Chu Kuangren read the information, he could not help but exclaim, “Oh, it’s you again.”
Long ago, Chu Kuangren had fought this Demon Emperor at the Winged Human Tribe. Back then, his opponent was also a clone, but the clone that Chu Kuangren faced now was much more powerful than the one he last fought with. Its power level was incredibly close to an Emperor Realm cultivator.
“I didn’t think you’d still be my greatest obstacle when I descend upon this realm again. You’ve really progressed a lot in the past few years.”
Deep down, Demon Emperor Pride was incredibly shocked.
His talents were already among the best in the history of the whole Demonic Realm. Yet, even he could not dare imagine how someone, who was not even an Honorable, could become stronger than most Boundary Emperors within a short few years. This was just unbelievable.
“There are much more you can’t think of. For instance, I will kill your clone today!”
As soon as Chu Kuangren uttered, a massive surge of Daoist Rhyme erupted from his body and spread everywhere, clashing head-on with the Demon Emperor’s aura.
“Although you are formidable, you will still fall before an Emperor’s might!”
The Demon Emperor said coldly as his Emperor’s Aura spread outward.
The Boundary Emperors, who sensed that surge of Emperor’s Aura, could immediately feel their Daoist Rhymes suppressed. They could not even exert their power at all.
The Emperor Suppressing All Ability!
The Emperor’s Dao possessed absolute suppression towards any Dao that was below its level!
In other words, cultivators below an Emperor’s level have absolutely no way to fight or resist against one.
The Demon Emperor Pride before them may only be a clone, but it could still channel the power of the Emperor’s Dao. This was something the Boundary Emperors at the scene could never contend with.
“Emperor’s Dao? I wonder if you can deal with the Heavenly Dao instead?”
Chu Kuangren let out a low cry, and the Daoist Rhyme on him suddenly changed into a vast surge of Heavenly Might.
Dark clouds started to gather in the sky as thunder rumbled.
It was as if the Heavens were enraged!
At that moment, Chu Kuangren had seemingly become the manifestation of the Heavens itself, and his majestic Heavenly Might stunned everyone at the scene.
The Heavenly Punishment Daoist Rhyme was not affected by the Emperor’s Aura at all. Even in the face of an Emperor’s Dao, Chu Kuangren could still unleash his full strength!
“How can someone use the power of Heavenly Dao in this world?”
Demon Emperor Pride was stunned by Chu Kuangren once again.
Following that, a chilling killing intent shot out from his gaze. “Since there are currently no Emperors in the Firmament Star, this will be the best opportunity for my Demonic Realm to conquer this realm. Even an outlier like you will never be able to stop the Demonic Realm’s invasion no matter how hard you try! You shall perish once and for all today!”
“Come and bring it on then!”
Chu Kuangren sneered as his Descendant Self Sword instantly unsheathed itself.
Without another word, the sword struck out and unleashed a brilliant purple sword ray that was accompanied by a strong wind.
“Show me how much you’ve improved over these years!”
Demon Emperor Pride snorted while unleashing a fist technique.
When the sword and fist attack collided, both Chu Kuangren and Demon Emperor Pride were forced back.
However, with his Supreme Sage’s physique, Chu Kuangren was not afraid of the impact produced by collision at all. Instead, he immediately lifted his sword and struck out another sword attack.
After that, Emperor Techniques like the Tathagata Rebirth Mantra, Raging Gods Fist, and Heart Piercing Finger were unleashed successively. Demon Emperor Pride could not help but feel terrified upon seeing that.
“How does he know so many Emperor Techniques?!”
Zhan Hongying and Touba, who were nearby, were shocked to see Chu Kuangren’s heated battle with the Demon Emperor as well.
Chu Kuangren, a Soaring Dragon Leaderboard sky-pride like them, could already go head to head with a Demon Emperor.
Meanwhile, they were still battling ordinary Sages.
The gap in strength was just tremendous.
“D*mn. I’m not sure whether my senses are right, but why does it seem like that guy has gotten stronger?”
Zhan Hongying remarked with an unsettling gaze.
Even her underworld demonic wolf, Lil Pip, whimpered as if it was agreeing with her.
“He has definitely gotten stronger!”
The crowd of Boundary Emperors had noticed Chu Kuangren’s difference as well.
This made all of them extremely terrified.
Chu Kuangren had only unlocked his Heavenly Punishment Seal not long ago, yet he had already made such rapid improvements.
For cultivators like them who had reached their current state, every step of progress they made was incredibly difficult. Sometimes, they might even get stuck along the way, and stagnation for thousands of years was possible as well. That was why Chu Kuangren’s rapid progress within such a short time was demoralizing.
It seemed only the Boundary Emperors from the Nether Abyss Valley had figured it out.
“Brother Chu must have found his own way of Dao. That’s why he has improved so much.”
“That’s right. He’s affirming his own Dao right now.”
Finding their own Dao was the most crucial step in a cultivator’s journey.
Once they succeed, they would experience rapid progress in their path of cultivation.
“Pride Demonic Scripture, Strike of Pride!”
Demon Emperor Pride raised his arm to gather demonic qi, which eventually formed a black demonic saber that struck out. Then, an overwhelming aura that undermined every being in the world emanated and shocked the whole world.
Having enveloped the whole sky, the black saber ray then shot towards Chu Kuangren.
