Chapter 1370: Chu Kuangren Failed, Outside The Heavenly Dao Spire, Prodigies Surrounded
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy TranslationChu Kuangren flew out of the Heavenly Dao Spire.
His clone’s aura was weak after the battle with the Holy Violet Immortal Emperor, having exhausted almost half of his energy.
“Holy Violet Immortal Emperor, huh? Interesting.”
Chu Kuangren grinned instead of being angry.
The fact that the Holy Violet Immortal Emperor gave up on the other three Heavenly Dao Spires just to stop him from acquiring the final Opportunity of Fortune showed how much he feared Chu Kuangren.
The more his enemies feared him, the happier he would be. Why would he be angry about it?
However, he was still determined to get the final Opportunity of Fortune in the East Heavenly Dao Spire, and the Holy Violet Immortal Emperor was just a higher hurdle that he had to cross.
“Did Chu Kuangren fail? Or did he make it?”
Some of the sky-prides noticed Chu Kuangren flying away from the last floor and were baffled by the scene.
Loud rumbling noises then came from the other three Heavenly Dao Spires, followed by their disappearance.
Then, all the major forces got an update on the spires’ disappearance.
The respective tower invaders had cleared the challenges and acquired the final Opportunity of Fortune, hence the disappearance.
The update awestruck many.
“I didn’t think someone would be strong enough to beat the Heavenly Dao Spire! It’s unbelievable! What kind of monstrous Prodigies are they?!”
“Wait. If the spire disappears once it’s cleared, this one is still here. Does it mean Chu Kuangren failed?”
The thought left many in shock, and they quickly turned their attention to Chu Kuangren.
The arrogant Chu Kuangren had failed?!
Others cleared the Heavenly Dao Spire but not him?!
In other words, did he just lose to the other three sky-prides?
Many other sky-prides could not believe it, but many gloated at Chu Kuangren as well.
“I knew he can’t be invincible forever. He’s no god. I’m glad he’s finally fallen out of his unbeatable status.”
“Yeah. I guess that’s all Chu Kuangren has.”
“There are other Prodigies who are stronger than him!”
The sky-prides who were once pressured and oppressed by Chu Kuangren felt proud for once, and the delight carried them away.
“The chief didn’t make it?”
Hiding in the corner, Shi Ying was also drowned in disbelief.
Li Fei felt sorry as well. “The Heavenly Dao Spire is too difficult. It’s not easy for Master Chu to reach the last floor either.”
“It’s not that simple. Three streams of light came in from three different directions and entered the last floor of the spire. If I’m correct, they must come from the other three Heavenly Dao Spires,” Fu Yin said.
“People remain foolish as they fail to see the truth.” Monk Wujie of the Buddhist world shook his head and added, “If I’m correct, the three streams of light were the three other spire defenders, which were the Holy Violet Immortal Emperor’s Immortal Consciousness thought forms. They came in from all directions just to stop Chu Kuangren from getting the Opportunity of Fortune, and it was because of that advantage that the other three Prodigies could get the final Opportunities of Fortune.
“The Holy Violet Immortal Emperor believed that stopping Chu Kuangren was much more important than the ongoing trials.
“It seems like the Immortal Hall fears the Human Emperor more than we thought. It’s unusual.”
The crowd was surprised by Monk Wujie’s explanation.
“Does it mean that the other three Prodigies got their Opportunities of Fortune because of Chu Kuangren?”
“You can put it that way.”
“What? What the hell?”
“It’s Chu Kuangren’s fate as the Human Emperor. The Holy Violet Immortal Emperor’s fear of him has cost him the final Opportunity of Fortune in the spire, so you can say the success and failure are all to the Human Emperor!”
“If it weren’t for his fate as the Human Emperor, Chu Kuangren might have gotten the final Opportunity of Fortune, but I can’t say the same for the other three.”
The people finally understood that it was not Chu Kuangren weaker than the other three Prodigies. It was the Holy Violet Immortal Emperor who feared him more than the others, so the former gathered his other thought forms from the other spires just to stop him from acquiring the final Opportunity of Fortune.
“What a monster Chu Kuangren is. I guess he’s the only one from the younger generations whom the Embodier Immortal Emperor dreads so badly!”
“Hmph. No matter what you say, it won’t change the fact that he didn’t get the Opportunity of Fortune. He failed, regardless of excuses.”
Some of the sky-prides kept the same attitude even after learning the facts because of their resentment for Chu Kuangren.
Their tone might not sound friendly, but it was the fact that Chu Kuangren failed this time. He lost the Opportunity of Fortune in the spire while the other three Prodigies got theirs.
With that, the three Prodigies might seize the chance to catch up to Chu Kuangren or even surpass him altogether.
“He might not have gotten the inheritance, but he failed honorably,” Monk Wujie said.
Just then, several figures appeared in the sky.
“Hahaha! I didn’t expect to see the arrogant Chu Kuangren lose this time!”
He was King Songdi’s successor of the Underworld, gloating at Chu Kuangren’s failure like the others.
Chu Kuangren looked around after hearing King Songdi’s successor and found himself surrounded by a bunch of sky-prides.
Other than the three successors from Yincao City, Heavenly Daoist Tian and Heavenly Daoist Di from the Heavenly Dao Sect, the Eldest Young Master of the Qin clan, and the Little Heavenly Ruler from Holy Violet Pavilion were also there.
Seven Prodigies from the four great forces were there!
“Don’t play with fire. You will surely have to pay the price one day!”
Knowing what they wanted to do, Chu Kuangren shook his head, sighed, and swung his sleeve outwards, releasing a vast Immortal’s Core energy.
“If you people have a death wish, I don’t mind granting it to you.”
“Chu Kuangren, you just battled the Holy Violet Immortal Emperor, and there are seven of us here! How much energy do you have left in there?” Heavenly Daoist Tian scoffed.
Then, he stepped forward and released a massive surge of Heavenly Dao energy into the air.
His Heavenly Might triggered the spiritual qi in all directions.
Countless mystical Daoist patterns flowed in the realm and formed a powerful boundary around Chu Kuangren, trapping him inside.
That was one of the ways they came up to restrain Chu Kuangren.
“Heavenly Dao Sect’s eight Heavenly Daoists shall cease to exist starting from today.”
“Chu Kuangren, I will kill you today to honor the Heavenly Dao!”
“Hmph. Even the Heavenly Dao shall bow before me.”
Chu Kuangren stepped forward and pointed out his sword hand sign while a green light glowed in his eyes.
Boundless sword qi swept over the realm like a violent tempest, destroying almost everything in its way.
The boundary formed by countless Daoist patterns trembled violently as the tempest of a sword qi rocked it.
Heavenly Daoist Tian’s expression changed, and he shouted, “Now!”
He took the lead and attacked. Endless Heavenly Dao energy erupted and transformed into a golden palm that crashed onto the boundary.
After that, Heavenly Daoist Di followed. She might also be a Prodigy but was not as strong as Heavenly Daoist Tian.
“Heavenly Dao Pierce!”
As she pointed her finger, boundless Daoist patterns expanded and confined Chu Kuangren on the spot as though the Heavenly Might had befallen him.
“Samsara Palm!”
All three successors of the Underworld attacked en masse.
The power of samsara manifested into three samsara vertices, gushing forward violently with might that shadowed the sky.
“Scarlet Dragon Shadow!”
Qin Fengyun channeled the Five Dragons Dominion Art and unleashed the Scarlet Dragon Shadow at Chu Kuangren.
