Chapter 1184 - The West Ruler Matriarch’s Residence, a Fragment of Fuxi’s Guqin, the Hopeful Yu Zhi

"Hmph." Zhuo Donglai snorted and said nothing further.

Then, he left the Jade Void Palace with the other Heavenly Champions.

As they passed by Chu Kuangren, they saw Cao Yun, Wang Chentian, and the other Hundred Academy Heavenly Champions. Every single one of them had a giddy look on their face.

It was as if they had obtained a tremendous amount of Opportunities of Fortune.

Zhuo Donglai and the others were a little puzzled but paid no heed to them. Seeing how huge the entire Jade Void Daoist Grounds were, it was not surprising for them to obtain so many Opportunities of Fortune.

"D*mn you, Chu Kuangren. He's just too much. I can't believe that in just one month, he has taken every single Opportunity of Fortune in this whole area."

"This is just unacceptable."

"Immortal Elixirs, Immortal Weapons, and so much more. He did not even leave a single item for us."

Some of the cultivators inside the Jade Void Palace were in a heated discussion.

When Zhuo Donglai, Zhi Lei, and the others heard that, they could not help but frown and quickly inquired more about the matter.

As soon as they learned of what happened, all of them were stunned.

Did Chu Kuangren wake up one month earlier than them?!

1

He even looted most of the Opportunities of Fortune in this whole area?!

"What's going on with him? To think he woke up one month earlier than us. Was the Embodier's Dao lecture that uninteresting to him?"

"He's taken all of the Opportunities of Fortune in the Jade Void Daoist Grounds?"

"Hmph. I can't believe he's so greedy."

Zhuo Donglai, Chi Zhan, and the others looked at Chu Kuangren unhappily. 'So, all of thoseOpportunities of Fortune went to him?'

'No wonder all of those people from the Hundred Academy were behaving as if they'd won the jackpot.'

'I see.'

"Let's leave," said Chu Kuangren to Lan Yu and the others.

Now that they had obtained most of the Opportunities of Fortune in Jade Void Palace, there was no point in lingering around any longer.

To leave Jade Void Palace, they would have to traverse the sea of clouds once more.

That was not a difficult task for those who had managed to enter.

After all, if they could enter, they should have no problem leaving as well.

Most of the people here thought that way.

However, they soon realized that they were mistaken.

The restriction seals in the sea of clouds changed after they entered and became even more unpredictable and mysterious.

Hum…

Golden rays of light were launched toward them.

Zhuo Donglai and the others quickly took action to resist them.

On the other day, things were easier for Chu Kuangren as he just had to cast his Yin Yang Life and Death Symbol to shield everyone within. That way, the surrounding restriction seals could not do anything to them at all.

Yet, after walking a certain distance, a terrifying storm came toward them from afar. It was so powerful that it startled everyone present.

"What a terrifying restriction seal."

Even Zhuo Donglai's, Yu Zhi's, and the others' expressions turned serious.

"Let's attack together!" Zhuo Donglai said.

He raised his hand and gathered Daoist patterns. As his mighty and scorching Immortal's Core energy spread everywhere, it formed a huge sun that was blasted toward the storm.

With that, everyone else also attacked.

Boom!

Following a huge explosion, the surrounding sea of clouds dispersed while the void cracked open.

That incoming storm — formed by the restriction seals — was immediately destroyed.

Amidst the scattered sea of clouds, an incredible mountain peak appeared. It had the same level of glamor and magnificence as the Jade Void Daoist Grounds.

"That's…"

Yu Zhi's eyes widened in shock when she saw that mountain peak. She felt something inside her throb as if something was calling out to her from the mountain. "This feeling… It's the West Ruler Matriarch's residence!"

As the host of the Holy Jade Pool Physique and the Holy Jade Pool Maiden Sage, Yu Zhi could be considered an inheritor of the West Ruler Matriarch's legacy. Hence, she could sense the West Ruler Matriarch's aura.

She could also sense that an inheritance unique to her was in that mountain peak. Hence, she immediately got excited.

"I must go!"

Without another word, Yu Zhi dashed toward the mountain peak that appeared amidst the void. Everyone else simply exchanged glances before following suit.

The West Ruler Matriarch's residence was certainly a location worth exploring.

While everyone was flying toward the mountain peak, a mysterious spatial energy fluctuation suddenly appeared from the void, causing them to disappear.

"Oh, some sort of spatial energy?"

Chu Kuangren's eyes narrowed a little.

Then, he looked at Cao Yun and the others. "I'm not sure what danger awaits us there, so do you guys want to come with me or stay behind?"

"Ha! We're coming with you, of course."

"How are we supposed to call ourselves cultivators if we're afraid of danger?"

All of them wanted to go with him.

Chu Kuangren chuckled. "Let's go then."

Everyone headed toward the West Ruler Matriarch's residence, and the moment they entered, an incredibly powerful spatial energy engulfed them.

Then, the scene before their very eyes changed, and everyone stepped foot into the West Ruler Matriarch's residence.

"Everyone has been separated."

Chu Kuangren looked around at his surroundings. Besides him, no one else was around. They were clearly transported somewhere else at random.

"This place is located within Kunlun Secret Realm but not really at the same time. Is it something like a realm within a realm?" Chu Kuangren murmured.

A realm within a realm meant opening a secret realm within a secret realm. Only the most top-tier great ones could achieve such a feat.

The West Ruler Matriarch was undoubtedly one of those great ones.

"That place over there, is it the center of this realm within a realm?"

Chu Kuangren looked at a towering mountain peak in the distance. That mountain was so high that it reached into the clouds, and Immortal qi was the densest there, with Immortal Herbs and Immortal Crystals growing everywhere. It was as if that place was the most prosperous land in the area.

"I should go have a look over there."

Chu Kuangren stepped forth, bridging tens of thousands of kilometers in one go.

While he was dashing toward the heart of the realm, he suddenly sensed an incredible surge of aura on the way.

Upon pausing to take a look, he saw that a giant White Tiger was battling it out with a white-robed female Immortal.

That female Immortal had a graceful figure, a cold expression, and a guqin in her arm. She was unleashing waves upon waves of guqin music at her opponent.

"Oh, it's her."

Chu Kuangren was slightly surprised.

That female Immortal happened to be Yu Zhi, the Holy Jade Pool Holy Maiden.

As waves of guqin music sounded, Chu Kuangren felt something throbbing inside his body. Hence, he raised his hand and took out an ancient guqin.

It was the Cloud Nine Insignia that he had obtained back in the day!

The Cloud Nine Insignia was only a top-tier Heavenly Immortal Weapon, and Chu Kuangren did not have much use for it.

However, the guqin was a fragment of a Source Supreme Treasure. As of now, the Cloud Nine Insignia was resonating with the guqin in Yu Zhi's possession.

"As I suspected."

Chu Kuangren was not surprised.

It was clear that, like the Cloud Nine Insignia, Yu Zhi's guqin was also a fragment of a Source Supreme Treasure.

That was why both guqins resonated with each other.

"There aren't many Guqin-type Source Supreme Treasures. The most notable among them is certainly Fuxi's Guqin, which is known as the first guqin of the ancient Immortal period."

"I'm ninety percent sure that it's a fragment of Fuxi's Guqin," Chu Kuangren murmured.

"Should I snatch it from her?"

He pondered.

A Supreme Source Treasure was an item more advanced than even an Arch Gilded Immortal Weapon. It could even help a cultivator reach the Embodier Realm.

"Roar…"

At that time, that gigantic White Tiger let out a long roar. Its terrifying yokai qi immediately sent Yu Zhi flying hundreds of meters away, and blood started trickling from the corner of her mouth.

That gigantic White Tiger was just too strong.

As one of the divine beasts, the White Tiger specialized in offensive attacks!

Furthermore, the White Tiger before Yu Zhi was a pure-blooded divine beast that had awakened its bloodline several times and a Ninth-grade Heavenly Immortal.

Yu Zhi was only a Middle Third-grade Heavenly Immortal now. Hence, it was very hard for her to defeat that divine beast.

"Should I ask him for help?"

Yu Zhi looked at Chu Kuangren in the air.

She had already noticed him when he arrived. However, he was only standing by watching her fight, not interfering at all.

She knew he had no reason to help her. After all, he would have one less opponent to deal with in the Battle of Heavenly Champions if she was defeated now.

However, for some reason, she was kind of looking forward to him helping her.

"Roar!"

The White Tiger divine beast attacked once more. Overflowing with tremendous power and yokai qi, it charged toward Yu Zhi ferociously.
