Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

1478 Higher The Cultivation, The Bigger The Pressure, Specifically Against Chu Kuangren

After knowing the origin of the Daoist contamination qi, Chu Kuangren had no plans to linger in Lapis Lazuli Land.

He came with Shi Ying but left with Shang Honghua.

“The Buddhist world is where you belong. I hope when we meet again in the future, you and I are still on the same side, and not the opposite,” Chu Kuangren said as he glanced at Shi Ying.

Shi Ying never really changed, but unfortunately, she was no longer the pure and innocent self that she once was.

If in the future, they ended up on opposite sides, Chu Kuangren would show her no mercy.

Before he left, he informed her about Hui Zhang being the real Buddha Destroyer.

Shi Ying thought it was ironic. She had been searching for the Buddha Destroyer for so long, yet her target had always been within the Buddhist world.

As she watched Chu Kuangren leave, she felt a stinging pain in her heart as if a part of her was taken away.

“You have fallen for him,” Jing Hui said to Shi Ying with a shake of her head.

“Yes, I admit it. I’ll face my punishment when we go back. Even if I have to take a hundred years to calm my Buddhist core, I’ll do whatever it takes to make up for what I did.”

“Why are you doing this to yourself?” Jing Hui asked with a sigh.

Shi Ying’s personality manifestation existed to test Chu Kuangren. Unfortunately, she failed and even gave her heart away.

“It can’t be helped,” Shi Ying chuckled bitterly and left.

Each step she took left a lotus in her wake. A few steps later, a white robe appeared on her, a ring of Buddhist Light appeared behind her, and the signature suet white jade vase appeared in her hands.

A Holistic aura emanated from her as she walked away.

From now on, Shi Ying and Guanyin’s successor became one. There were no differences between them anymore.

On the other hand, after Chu Kuangren left Lapis Lazuli Land, his mind was still thinking about everything he learned about the Daoist contamination qi.

After learning about its origin, he did not feel the exhilaration of solving the mystery. Quite the opposite, he felt a sense of urgency.

He urgently wanted to get stronger!

The Daoist contamination qi was huge as many factors were involved. Even an Embodier realm cultivator could be easily overwhelmed by the matter.

In other words, in a more precise way, the higher one’s cultivation level, the bigger the pressure one would feel when one learned of the Daoist contamination qi.

Quite the opposite, the peasants and commoners who knew nothing were able to live a carefree life.

“My King, what is with that Daoist contamination qi?” Shang Honghua asked.

Chu Kuangren glanced at her and smiled. “You’ll know when it’s time.”

“Hmph. My King, you’re starting to become a riddler, like the great ones,” Shang Honghua said helplessly but did not linger on the question.

For some reason, she sensed pressure from Chu Kuangren’s smile.

Maybe her King did not want her and the others to know about the Daoist contamination qi.

Even if they knew, they would not be able to do a lot and might even be a burden to their King.

Therefore, their King had decided to shoulder the burden himself.

The thought gave Shang Honghua a sense of urgency to become stronger as well, just like Chu Kuangren.

“Did you hear? A Bagua Furnace has appeared in Laojun City, and apparently, it contains some massive Opportunities of Fortune. Many people are already heading there.”

“Yeah. Some of the Prodigies have made their moves as well.”

“Especially the folks from Kunlun Immortal Hall. One of the Imperial Commanders has gone there.”

A sudden discussion rose from the crowd and caught Chu Kuangren and Shang Honghua’s attention.

They exchanged a quick look and were rather intrigued by the topic.

“Bagua Furnace? What Opportunities of Fortune are there going to be?”

“I don’t know. But since the Prodigies and even an Imperial Commander have gone there, they must be good,” Chu Kuangren said with an unusual gleam in his eyes.

When he heard the name Bagua Furnace, his brow raised, and he felt a sudden rush of adrenaline.

It felt like something big was about to happen.

The last time he had the same feeling was when Shang Honghua was having trouble at Golden Continent.

This time, however, the feeling was stronger than before.

He also had a feeling that whatever lay ahead would probably be prepared specifically for him.

“Interesting. Is someone trying to set me up?”

Intrigued, he said to Shang Honghua, “Let’s go have a look.”

“Alright.” Shang Honghua nodded.

The two then headed toward Laojun City.

After they left, the cultivators who started the topic exchanged a suspicious look before one of them took out a communication jade scroll.

“My lords, Chu Kuangren is heading to Laojun City now.”

“Good.”

A calm voice came from the jade scroll.

Meanwhile, somewhere in the Immortal World, several great ones had gathered to discuss something.

With the boundary they set up, no one would be able to eavesdrop or spy on them and their discussion.

“Are you people sure about this?” asked a white-robed elderly.

Around him, mystical glimmers circulate, and Daoist Rhymes manifested into three beautiful flowers above his head. There were five rich and vigorous qi circulating around his chest as well.

Three flowers above the head and five strands of qi in the chest had manifested on a single person!

The elderly was a Great Perfected Arch Gilded Immortal!

The others around him were also some of the top Arch Gilded Immortals, and each of them could rival the white-robed elderly.

“If we don’t do this, what are the odds of our Heavenly Champions securing the position of the Immortal World Ruler?” said one maroon-robed elderly coldy.

Everyone wanted to be the Immortal World Ruler, and all forces were fighting for the position.

After all, none of them wanted to fall behind their rivals.

While the Heavenly Champions produced by different forces had the same equal chance to ascend to the throne, the great ones decided not to interfere and allow the younger generations to compete for the most prestigious position.

However, no one expected the appearance of Chu Kuangren.

“Chu Kuangren against the world? It’s madness. He’s unrivaled. With him around, our sky-prides won’t even have the chance to even get near the throne. Don’t forget he’s a Human Emperor as well. If he becomes the Immortal World Ruler, do you think it will end well for us? The best outcome I can think of is that we submit to his rule!” said one buff man.

All of them were the great ones from the Immortal Hall, including people from the Eastern Sovereign and Kunlun.

Great ones from two different Immortal Halls gathered just to peacefully discuss the matter regarding Chu Kuangren.

The peaceful scene had only happened many years ago when the two forces agreed to set the Great Deification Calamity in order to remove the Human Emperor.

Now, after many years, the great ones from two Immortal Halls gathered once again.

Everyone heard the buff man’s words and was silenced by them.

“Is Kunlun Immortal Hall prepared for this?”

“Of course. Not only would we have to remove him, but we might also want to try to get the Opportunities of Fortune from him,” said the maroon-robed elderly.

“What does the Celestial Demon Tribe have to say about this?”

“The strongest of the Celestial Demon Tribe has to be at that place to suppress that thing, so he can’t divert his attention. As for the others, we can stop them if we team up.”

“Very well. We’ll go with this plan.”

The discussion went on.

A plan, specifically formed to target Chu Kuangren, was born in the dark.

Chu Kuangren, on the other hand, knew nothing about it. By then, he and Shang Honghua had already arrived at Laojun City, where Bagua Furnace appeared.
