2107 Battle Royale, Chu Kuangren Has Arrived, One Versus Three
The appearance of the Hongmeng-level divine metal attracted the attention of all forces.
The Heavenly Formation Palace, the Beastman Tribe, and the Apocalypse Martial Society were all there, attempting to seize the divine metal for themselves.
Their energies clashed fiercely, turning the atmosphere in the area into a tense and unwelcoming place.
Some of the common cultivators could not even get close.
"This Hongmeng Divine Metal is probably one of the rarest treasures in Hongmeng Spirit World. I believe no one would let it go without a fight."
"Cut the cr*p."
"If so, a fight is inevitable."
Yuan Hong started to summon restriction seals around him.
The furry beastman closed his fists and released a barren surge of energy that attempted to overpower everyone at the scene.
Lei Xuan of the Apocalypse Martial Society swung his saber around.
The other cultivators behind them were eager to compete for the divine metal as well.
"Go!"
Following a shout of command, Yuan Hong started the battle by blasting the restriction seals forward. In an instant, a massive light barrier surrounded the area, casting immense pressure on everyone.
"The formation of the Heavenly Formation Palace is indeed powerful," Lei Xuan said with a heavy grunt.
He then swung his saber at Yuan Hong, unleashing sharp saber qi mixed with murderous qi from his Great Dao.
The beastman threw a punch as well. The domineering power caused the void to explode loudly.
When the two attacks landed on the formation, they crushed it completely.
However, the shattered restriction seals swirled and formed another more mystifying formation that contained the Five Ways energy
"Have a taste of the Five Ways Formation!" Yuan Hong bellowed.
Cultivators from different forces fought a messy battle. Their fight almost tore the realm apart.
Further away, Liu Hu from the Radiant Church brought his men over.
When he saw the Hongmeng Divine Metal in the light, his eyes gleamed with interest.
"A good treasure."
His figure flashed forward, attempting to seize the divine metal away.
The Radiant Great Dao's energy swirled and formed a massive palm seal, but Yuan Hong, Lei Xuan, and the others noticed him.
"Oh, no you don't! You're not getting the divine metal so easily!"
Lei Xuan swung a slash at Liu Hu.
Yuan Hong channeled his formation and summoned countless flames that formed a vicious fire dragon. It tried to engulf and devour Liu Hu whole.
The attacks from two Grand Dao elites forced Liu Hu to take things seriously.
He was forced to give up on the divine metal and counter with his Radiant palm seal. He managed to block the combined attack but was pushed more than ten steps away.
"I shouldn't miss the Hongmeng Divine Metal, but it's difficult to determine the victor. I should stay away and observe further," Liu Hu thought to himself as he retreated.
With that, the other cultivators from the Radiant Church kept their patience and stayed away from the battle.
Yuan Hong and the others noticed their intention.
"Are you trying to stay out of this? No way!"
"Hmph! Do you think we'll give you the chance?"
Lei Xuan and Yuan Hong exchanged a quick look before they attacked Liu Hu together.
They were trying to drag Liu Hu into the fight.
As Liu Hu could not escape the combined attack, he was forced to join the fray.
The other cultivators from the Radiant Church were being targeted as well.
Everyone was fighting for the divine metal, and the Radiant Church wanted to stay aside as an observer?
No way!
As such, the Radiant Church was forced to join the fight.
A battle royale broke out, and cultivators from different forces attacked each other with everything they had.
Suddenly, a bright light shone from the sky, and a pillar of light descended. The pillar of light contained vast Radiant energy that swept across the battlefield.
The powerful blast sent the weaker cultivators flying away.
Those who stayed stared at the pillar of light with intrigue.
"This is…"
Liu Hu's eyes lit up.
A figure emerged from the pillar of light.
He had white robes, silver hair, and a transcendental appearance. Each move he made had Radiant energy. It was as if the son of light had descended.
It was Chu Kuangren!
"The Child of Light!"
"It really is him! Great! He's here!"
Chu Kuangren's arrival boosted the Radiant Church's cultivators' morale. They were thrilled to have him on their side.
His boundless Radiant energy gave them a sense of safety.
However, Liu Hu and the other Bishops were doubtful.
Chu Kuangren's energy level might be high, but no one knew how capable he was in terms of combat strength. After all, there were multiple Grand Dao elites on the battlefield.
Could he be strong enough to handle them?
Chu Kuangren laid eyes on the divine metal as soon as he arrived, and his eyes lit up as well.
He agreed that the Hongmeng Divine Metal was indeed a good treasure.
"My Descendant Self Sword can use a suitable divine metal for an upgrade."
Following the activation in his cultivation level, the Descendant Self Sword could no longer contain his full energy, so he rarely used it in battle.
He wanted to upgrade it, but it required a suitable divine metal, which, in this case, would be the Hongmeng Divine Metal.
"Are you here for the divine metal as well? Do you have what it takes to snatch it?" Lei Xuan roared coldly.
Yuan Hong stared at Chu Kuangren coldly as well. He was still angry that Chu Kuangren killed Master Chen before they entered the Hongmeng Spirit World.
His hatred for Chu Kuangren remained.
Hence, he ought to take on Chu Kuangren first since he had arrived.
"Hey, punk! Have a taste of my fist!"
The furry beastman of the Grand Dao Realm scoffed. Then, he channeled his Grand Dao energy and punched Chu Kuangren.
The domineering punch energy gushed forward like a tidal wave, shaking even the void.
Chu Kuangren, however, did not move. Instead, he channeled his Radiant Dao energy.
He also countered with a punch, and another white pillar of light shot out.
"Bang!"
The two different energies clashed in the void, pushing both casters away.
Then, another saber ray locked onto Chu Kuangren.
The saber ray contained extreme murderous intent.
It was Lei Xuan from the Apocalypse Martial Society.
"Great Judgment of Light!"
Chu Kuangren used his ultimate skill, tossing a ball of light at Lkei Xuan.
"Kaboom!"
The powerful energy shattered the saber ray.
Then, multiple restriction seals appeared from the void and formed a formation around Chu Kuangren, trapping him.
"Five Ways Formation, activate!"
It was Yuan Hong's formation.
Chu Kuangren scoffed. "Three versus one? Not bad."
In fact, he was speechless.
The few of them were busy fighting each other, but when he arrived, they all turned their attention to him.
Could it be that he had some kind of hidden talent for attracting hatred?
Despite that, he did not think about the situation too much. He was not afraid of taking on three of them at once either.
"So what if you are the Child of Light? I will crush you today with the Five Ways Formation!" Yuan Hong said coldly.
With that, the Five Ways Formation was activated.
The energy of the Five Ways swirled, summoning elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
Blazing flame, torrential waves, sword qi, sandstorms, and landslides — different natural phenomena unleashed their powers at Chu Kuangren.
The vast energy from the attack could shake the realm.
Meanwhile, Lei Xuan and the horned beastman were outside the formation, channeling their respective Great Dao's energy to charge their ultimate attack.
All of them were Grand Dao Life Mastery elites.
Although they were not exactly the strongest, Chu Kuangren could only reach the same realm with a boost from the Radiant Seed.
Fighting three of them alone seemed difficult, and the odds of winning were not in his favor.
