1390 Celestial Demon Coronation, You Have To Compensate Me
All the Divine Daoists of the Nine Houses, excluding the Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoists who ruled over everything, excelled in different fields.
The Mountain Ghoul Divine Daoist excelled in controlling the Mountain Ghoul energy, the Eastern Sky Divine Daoist controlled the Grand Solar energy, and so on.
The Great Arbiter Divine Maiden controlled life and death by wielding the energy of life and death.
"What are you planning to do next?" the Eastern Sky Divine Daoist asked.
Mountain Ghoul Divine Daoist had a frosty expression on his face. "I will make Chu Kuangren pay for what he did. I have yet to bring out the full potential of the Celestial Demon Physique, so I'll be cultivating and focusing to enhance it. I will get my revenge one day!"
"I highly doubt that," the Great Arbiter Divine Maiden murmured.
She had a feeling that Chu Kuangren did not use his full power in the battle.
If Mountain Ghoul Divine Daoist could grow stronger, so could Chu Kuangren.
Judging from Chu Kuangren's growth speed, he would only be stronger at a faster rate than the Mountain Ghoul Divine Daoist.
For the Mountain Ghoul Divine Daoist, getting revenge would be as difficult as getting to the Embodier Realm.
"Chu Kuangren is not an opponent you can take on alone. Besides, you're one hand short. If you're willing, come with me to the Golden Continent," the Eastern Sky Divine Daoist said.
"Golden Continent? What for?"
"Sources say that the West Ruler Matriarch's inheritance is there, and I plan to have a look. The West Ruler Matriarch was an Embodier cultivator who mastered multiple Daos, and one of the Daos was the Immortality Dao. There's a chance that a treasure similar to the West Ruler Matriarch's Undying Elixir is in her inheritance. I can help you regrow your arm," the Eastern Sky Divine Daoist said.
"The West Ruler Matriarch also mastered the Godly Yin Dao. I suppose you're looking for something similar to cultivate your Eastern King Grand Solar Art, and I believe you want to be like the late Zhuo Donglai, to merge Yin and Yang to cultivate Duality Rites Immortal Physique," the Mountain Ghoul Divine Daoist said as he seemed to have seen through the Eastern Sky Divine Daoist's thoughts.
"Zhuo Donglai is an idiot who died in Chu Kuangren's hands. Once I've cultivate the Eastern King Grand Solar Art to its zenith and master the Supreme Yang Grand Solar energy, it will rival even the Duality Rites energy," the Eastern Sky Divine Daoist answered.
The Eastern Sovereign School and Eastern Sky School were related, so he knew of Zhuo Donglai.
In order to master the Duality Rites Immortal Physique, Zhuo Donglai performed paired cultivation with a man from the Demonic Dao.
However, the Eastern Sky Divine Daoist viewed it as a disgrace and an insult to the Eastern Sky School.
Some careful considerations later, the Mountain Ghoul Divine Daoist said, "Fine. I'll go to the Golden Continent with you."
…
Meanwhile, on a certain mountain ridge, Chu Kuangren was analyzing the broken arm of the Mountain Ghoul Divine Daoist.
With the help of the Tome of Physiques, he soon mastered the black hole-attributed Chaos Celestial Demon Physique.
However, Lan Yu, Chu Hong, and the others were still in closed-door meditation after he came out.
It seemed like they had acquired quite the Opportunities of Fortune in the Heavenly Dao Spire, so it took them longer than usual to refine their spoils.
Shi Ying was the first to come out of closed-door meditation, and she had broken through to a True Immortal from Ninth Grade Heavenly Immortal.
Chu Kuangren clearly knew that the True Immortal cultivation base was just for Shi Ying's cover. As for her true identity, the cultivation base must be a lot higher.
"Chief, you're finally out!"
Shi Ying welcomed Chu Kuangren with a bright smile. "Chief, I've broken through to the True Immortal Realm!"
She smiled like a child asking for praise.
"You did great. Congratulations." Chu Kuangren smiled and praised her before adding, "Shi Ying, I'm going to the Golden Continent in a day or two. Why don't you come with me?"
"Huh? But Lan Yu, Fu Yin, and the others are still in closed-door meditation."
"It's okay. I'll leave my clone here to watch after them. It's just you and me on this trip to the Golden Continent."
Chu Kuangren could not risk leaving Shi Ying with Lan Yu and the others since she was the uncontrollable variable within the team. As such, he planned to bring her along.
He believed that would be the desired outcome of the one inside Shi Ying.
Shi Ying's eyes gleamed upon hearing the suggestion.
Two of them? Chu Kuangren and her alone?
The thought alone aroused her. She nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay! Alright! Whatever you say, Chief!"
Chu Kuangren nodded.
After that, he stared into the distant sky and sensed a large amount of Celestial Demon qi gathering at a certain point.
The Celestial Demon qi was rather mixed.
All kinds of energies, including lightning, fire, water, and even Five Ways, were gathering at a single spot.
Although all of them were just Pseudo Celestial Demon qi, when all of them gathered and converged into a massive source of energy, its aura was still powerful enough to make one feel suffocated.
Chu Kuangren's gaze deepened. "I see they're almost done."
…
The weather was bright and sunny, but a heavy and tense surge of energy roamed free in a certain mountain ridge.
Over there, Pseudo Celestial Demon cultivators were gathered, and their combined Celestial Demon qi flooded the realm. However, it was nothing compared to the stern looks on their faces.
Today would be the most important day of the Celestial Demon Tribe, and they were fully aware of it.
They had been waiting for this day for a long time.
A tall platform was erected amid the mountain ridge.
On the platform, a figure in black stood proudly, with domineering void energy emanating from his body. His aura alone was intimidating enough.
It was Jue Wushen, and he was waiting for someone, a critical someone that would change the course of fate of the Celestial Demon Tribe.
Standing further away was Ye Zhu, the first guest of the Celestial Demon Tribe. He was waiting with the others to witness history with his own eyes.
He glanced over the other Pseudo Celestial Demon Physiques, and a thought rushed into his mind. "The Celestial Demon Tribe is really outstanding. I can't even imagine what it would be like if they grow stronger in the future. I think they might even rival the ancient forces in the Immortal World."
One Pseudo Celestial Demon Physique was nothing stellar. At most, he or she would just be a common sky-pride.
However, when there was a group of them, things would be entirely different.
While Ye Zhu was amazed by the Celestial Demon Physique's potential, a huge bang went off at the horizon.
Black and white Celestial Demon qi intertwined in the sky, producing surges of terrifying life-death energy that formed a massive Life and Death Symbol.
The Life and Death Symbol expanded and shadowed the sky in the blink of an eye.
On top of the symbol stood a white figure emanating a transcendental aura. His every move made the sun and moon lose their shine!
It was Chu Kuangren!
That would be the first time many of the Pseudo Celestial Demon cultivators had seen their future king.
Everyone looked at him with utmost curiosity and interest.
Some of the female cultivators were infatuated by his good looks.
"He's so handsome!"
"Yeah! I think it's a good idea to make him king! If I can see his handsome face every day, I think I'll live longer!"
Some, however, responded with a heavy look.
Rumors about Chu Kuangren rushed into their heads, causing them to judge whether he was capable enough to become king.
As a matter of fact, their thoughts did not matter whether Chu Kuangren could become king or not.
The key was Jue Wushen.
As the Life and Death Symbol descended from the sky, the pressure on the crowd increased.
Jue Wushen stood firm on the platform.
Kakroom!
The moment Chu Kuangren set foot on the platform, the platform trembled and started crumbling.
Jue Wushen responded by saying, "I've spent days building this platform, and it has cost me a lot of Immortal Metals. Even if you're the Celestial Demon King, you'll have to pay me back for the damages."
Chu Kuangren was speechless.
