Chapter 442: Another Meeting, Spatial Conveyor Skill, Searching For The Emperor’s Opportunity Of Fortune
After killing Yuan Xian and Zheng Miao, Chu Kuangren was ready to leave the Royal Azure Dynasty. This time, he had journeyed out of Black Heaven Sect with many tasks in mind. One of them was to seek revenge on the six great unknown lands.
Within a few days, Chu Kuangren’s vow of seeking revenge on Craggy Ocean Tower, Acheron Manor, and a few other top-notch orthodoxies had already spread like wildfire.
Many people had their eyes on this matter.
All of them knew that although Chu Kuangren had not unlocked the Heavenly Punishment Seal, he had a way to harness runic energy. The only thing that was on everyone’s mind now was how far did his runic prowess go?
At the great hall of the Heavenly Golden Palace.
Just like three years ago, a meeting was called with the motion of destroying Chu Kuangren. The leaders of the six great top-notch orthodoxies were currently gathered at this place.
“Chu Kuangren has descended into the realm again. My fellow friends, this is already an unsalvageable position for all of us. He has to die!”
The new Heavenly Golden Palace Lord, Sage Ruler Changqin said indifferently.
Similar to Sage Ruler Changqin, the five other newly elected orthodoxy leaders echoed his sentiment. “It’s not that easy to kill Chu Kuangren. He has way too many antics,” Acheron Manor Lord said.
“That’s right. I assumed he would be beaten down forever after he got the Heavenly Punishment Seal, but who would have thought he’d get these weird rune techniques? He can summon runic power without using any spiritual power at all. I don’t think we can underestimate his current strength. He’s the same as he was three years ago, killing Sage Rulers like killing a puppy.”
“He doesn’t have any spiritual power fluctuations on him, so it’s certain that the Heavenly Punishment Seal hasn’t been unlocked. The only thing left to do now is for us to determine how much power he can unleash from these rune techniques.”
“If we don’t find out more about this, there’s no way we can kill him.”
“Sage Ruler Changqin, of all of us here, your Heavenly Golden Palace has the most resources and manpower. Why don’t you go and investigate how strong he is now? If he could be killed, then that’d be great news. If that’s not possible, I reckon you can still defend yourself with your combat strength.”
Sacred Palace of Death’s Lord said.
Upon hearing this, Sage Ruler Changqin rebutted in discontentment, “Don’t you, Sacred Palace of Death people, regard yourselves as harbingers of life and death? Why don’t you go?”
“Why don’t we let Xiao Jingchen go? Isn’t he from the Nine Heavens? He’s even the third-ranked sky-pride on the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard. If we send him, he would surely overpower Chu Kuangren, and he could take the number one spot on the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard. With this additional fortune in his hand, it’s almost certain for him to become an Emperor in the future.”
“Young Master is currently in closed-door meditation. He won’t be available for this.”
A few people started discussing it, but they could not come up with any solutions.
None of them wanted to be the first to take action on Chu Kuangren.
Chu Kuangren was an adversary that was way beyond nature’s law. If they attacked without one hundred percent confidence of winning, it would be akin to putting their own heads on a plate for him.
“Hmm. Since nobody wants to make the first move, let’s put out a bounty for him then. Other people can get him for us.”
Just then, Acheron Manor Lord suggested.
Everyone’s eyes lit up when they heard that.
“Alright, let’s do just that.”
“Oh, Chu Kuangren also has two Emperor Weapons on him, but now that he has the Heavenly Punishment Seal on his body, he won’t be able to use them. Send this word out. I’m sure we can entice a lot of people with this prospect,” the Bottomless Chasm Dweller said.
…
“Congratulations Master, you’ve drawn a God-tier divine power, Spatial Conveyor Skill!”
High up in the sky, Chu Kuangren was drawing his gacha on the Illusive Mirage.
This prize had taken him by surprise.
A God-tier divine power!
This was incredibly rare.
Throughout many years, he had drawn only less than a handful of God-tier prizes. Nevertheless, each one of them was of massive use to him.
Immortal Body, Eye of Revelation, Universal Cauldron Physique…
These were all key to his cultivation journey.
Now, he could add one more God-tier divine power, Spatial Conveyor Skill, to the list!
Chu Kuangren took a closer look at that skill. This divine power mainly concerned spatial force. In simpler terms, it would give the user the ability to put many spatial dimensions together, allowing him to move an object from one dimension to another.
He could move objects such as people, items, or other things.
All in all, this was a very strong divine power with high utility.
The only shame was that this divine power required an incredibly strong cultivation base to activate it. Since Chu Kuangren still had the Heavenly Punishment Seal on him, he could not use it.
“There’s only one last layer of the Nine-Layered Heavenly Punishment Seal left. With the speed at which the Universal Cauldron Technique is refining, I estimate that in another month’s time, I should be able to break free of the seal.” Chu Kuangren mumbled as he felt the Heavenly Punishment Seal inside his body.
One month was not that far away.
Three years had gone by just like that. One month would be a piece of cake for him.
After all, the combat strength that he could muster by using his mind and rune techniques was already quite powerful. His strength was almost the same as his old self three years ago.
Otherwise, he would not have dared challenge the six great orthodoxies to a rematch.
“Master, in front of us is the Qitai Mountain.”
Lan Yu said as she walked up to Chu Kuangren. With a map in hand, she stared down at that tumultuous mountain range from the Illusive Mirage.
“Alright, I got it.”
Qitai Mountain.
This was the location of the Opportunity of Fortune that Yin Li gave.
Chu Kuangren had come here to get that opportunity of fortune. However, when he arrived at Qitai Mountain, he felt some sort of familiarity with this place.
It was as though he had been here before.
“Master, don’t you think that this place looks familiar?”
“Yes, Lan Yu. Do you feel the same too?”
“I think we’ve been here before.”
Chu Kuangren thought for a moment but immediately shook his head. “Maybe we have passed by here during our travels in the past. Forget it. It doesn’t really matter.”
When the both of them steered the Illusive Mirage closer to Qitai Mountain, they noticed many people were cordoning off the whole mountain.
This came as quite a surprise for Chu Kuangren.
“Um… does this mean the Opportunity of Fortune has been uncovered?”
He kept the Illusive Mirage away and led Lan Yu closer to the crowd. They were so silent that the cultivators who cordoned off the routes to the mountain did not notice their presence.
These cultivators were all Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivation realms. With Chu Kuangren and Lan Yu’s strength, they would be extremely effortless for them both to beat.
Meanwhile, he had also found out about the identities of these people.
They were from an honorable orthodoxy called the Jadewater Sect.
Qitai Mountain was their sect’s territory.
Only then did Chu Kuangren finally figured out why this place looked familiar. He had indeed traveled here a long time ago.
“Jadewater Sect. Isn’t this one of the sects that came to pick a fight with my Honorable Teacher during his ascension trial? I still remember that in the end, he managed to wrestle them under control, and they eventually became Black Heaven Sect’s affiliated force.” It suddenly dawned on Chu Kuangren.
He even commanded the troops in that battle.
However, when the Heavenly Golden Palace and various other forces attacked Black Heaven Sect, many of these forces denounced their ties with Black Heaven Sect in order to survive.
Jadewater Sect was one of those sects.
“Ah, I remember now.”
Lan Yu frowned. “Back then, there was a lady here in Jadewater Sect who kept pestering Master. I told her off eventually.”
“Something like this happened?”
Chu Kuangren blinked. Why did he not remember this?
“It was just some nobody. It’s fine if you’ve forgotten her, Master. That kind of person is not worth mentioning.”
Lan Yu said nonchalantly.
Very soon, both of them breached Jadewater Sect’s security and reached the very depths of Qitai Mountain, where they saw a very strange light barrier.
That light barrier emitted a strong spatial fluctuation.
It looked like it was connected to some sort of secret realm.
“Oh, the prohibitory seal has vanished.”
Chu Kuangren said in surprise.
According to Yin Li’s description, the Opportunity of Fortune he found had some sort of prohibitory seal on it. However, he could not crack it, so he decided to leave the place and come back sometime later.
Now, it seemed that somebody else had gotten to it first.
“Does Jadewater Sect have the capability of breaking open a prohibitory seal that was placed by an Emperor?” Chu Kuangren’s lips lifted into a grin.
At first, he thought this was just a boring treasure hunting adventure, where he would just take the item and then leave. By the looks of it now, things had just become more fascinating.
