2181 Chu Kuangren, The Reincarnation of a Great One? Tempest King Versus Apocalypse Martial Ruler
The Tempest King Avatar appeared above the sky of Myriad Arms City.
A powerful suction force that could absorb all life in existence buffed the avatar's might, boosting its power infinitely closer to a Monarch's. The Apocalypse Martial Ruler was shocked.
"How is this power possible?"
An avatar with the power of a Monarch?
How powerful was the Tempest King in person?
It left the Apocalypse Martial Ruler stunned.
"It's the Tempest King's Heaven-devouring Technique!"
Someone from the previous Hongmeng era recognized the technique.
The Heaven-devouring Technique was created by the Tempest King, and it allowed her to absorb massive amounts of spiritual qi to increase her strength.
"I remember that during the previous Hongmeng era, the Tempest King's Heaven-devouring Technique could only absorb spiritual qi. Now, it could even absorb the qi essence of trees, rivers, mountains, and celestial objects! How did it become so powerful?!"
"The Tempest King must have perfected it. She's even more terrifying than the previous era. If the avatar can unleash power that rivals a Monarch with the Heaven-devouring Technique, it's hard to imagine how powerful she really is."
"The Heaven-devouring Technique might be an Absolute Dao-level technique."
Many elites were shocked by the technique.
They feared and revered the slender figure standing in the sky, peering down at all life with absolute power.
Meanwhile, in the Devil Tribe, the Devil King looked at the Tempest King Avatar and yawned. "I've been asleep so long that someone this interesting appeared during the previous era. If I were there, I would have taken her into the Devil Tribe and made her my strongest subordinate."
The Devil King had been alive for many eras, and only less than a handful of people intrigued her.
Most of the time, she would not even bat an eye at other Monarchs. Only Chu Kuangren and the Tempest King were strong enough to attract her attention.
Meanwhile, in the Dragon Tribe, a black dragon rose to the sky and stared coldly in the direction of Myriad Arms City. The raging dragon aura was fluctuating around him.
He was the Black Dragon King, the Monarch of the Dragon Tribe.
"Tempest King, Tempest King, you have appeared once again. This aura… Damn it. It's only an avatar, yet it's already so strong! I'll never get my revenge!"
The Black Dragon King was furious and annoyed.
During the previous era, some foolish one in the Black Dragon Tribe offended the Tempest King, causing her to trample over the Black Dragon Territory and defeat him.
It was a stain in his entire life that he could never forget.
He cultivated relentlessly just to get his revenge.
However, if the Tempest King Avatar possessed the power of a Monarch, how powerful would her true self be?
How would he get his revenge?
…
"For trying to kill my honorable teacher, I will kill you," the Tempest King said to the Apocalypse Martial Ruler.
Her words shocked everyone.
The Tempest King's honorable teacher? Who?
The Tempest King had a teacher, and the Apocalypse Martial Ruler wanted to kill the person?
The Apocalypse Martial Ruler was trying to kill Chu Kuangren!
In other words, was Chu Kuangren the Tempest King's honorable teacher?
Everyone's jaw dropped, and they could not comprehend the situation.
Powerful elites from the void placed their Immortal Consciousness on Chu Kuangren, attempting to pry a thing or two. However, they were blocked by a strange power.
It was the Soul Barrier. Chu Kuangren's Soul Barrier was not only protecting him from soul attacks, but it could also prevent others from prying deep into his mind.
"Hm. He's strange."
"He's just a Grand Dao cultivator. How could he be the Tempest King's honorable teacher? Something else must be going on here."
"Wait a minute, I got it!"
Realization struck someone. "He must be the reincarnation of some top Transcendentalist! He must've been the Tempest King's honorable teacher in his previous!"
"Yeah, that's possible."
The crowd seemed to have reached a plausible explanation.
It made sense. If Chu Kuangren was the reincarnation of a great one, it explained why he could achieve so many ridiculous feats and why the Tempest King called him her honorable teacher.
Everyone revered Chu Kuangren.
"The Tempest King's honorable teacher must be something else. We must be careful if we run into him next time."
"The Tempest King seems to respect her honorable teacher a lot. She even created this powerful avatar just to protect him."
"The Radiant Goddess, the Devil King, the Tempest King, and his identity of a previous great one… He seems to be a nameless cultivator from the Pan Gu Universe, but his background is astonishing."
Regarding Chu Kuangren's background, the crowd filled in the blanks with their imaginations.
Even the cultivators from the Pan Gu Universe were surprised. They, too, found his background shocking.
He might very well be a reincarnation of a great one who just happened to be reincarnated to the Pan Gu Universe.
The battle between the Tempest King and the Apocalypse Martial Ruler started.
As the Tempest King pointed a finger at him, the boundless Great Daoist law energy transformed into a beam of galactic energy, blasting forward.
"Apocalyptic Demon Martial Art, Absolute Heaven Slash!"
The Apocalypse Martial Ruler dared not be careless. He roared as he drew the saber from the sheath and unleashed a saber ray consisting of Great Daoist law energy.
When the galactic beam and the saber ray clashed, the realm shook violently.
Chu Kuangren felt the unbelievably powerful aura of a Monarch. It was as if there were mountains on his shoulder, pressuring him to the point of collapse.
However, he did not step away. Instead, he watched the battle eagerly.
It was a battle between two Monarchs, and he wanted to see it with his own eyes to gain some insights.
The biggest difference between a Grand Dao and a Monarch would be that a Monarch had deeper mastery of the Great Dao and could convert it to the Great Daoist law energy.
Great Daoist law energy had absolute dominance over Great Dao energy.
It was like a monarch and his subjects, which was also the origin of the Monarch's name.
Chu Kuangren watched as the Tempest King and the Apocalypse Martial Ruler fought with their respective Daoist laws. The terrifying energy from the clash shattered the void.
Its destructive power was nothing jaw-dropping. It was only slightly stronger than the power of a Grand Dao Supreme Honorable, but the energy fluctuation from the clash was countless times stronger.
A sliver of that energy fluctuation could easily kill a common Grand Dao Supreme Honorable.
It was a higher level of power and different from the core.
"Apocalyptic Demon Martial Art, Thousand Martial Zenith!" the Apocalypse Martial Ruler roared.
The saber he wielded shone brightly. The Daoist law energy dazzled and transformed into tens of thousands of cultivation techniques.
Then, the cultivation techniques merged into one blinding and unparalleled saber ray.
The Daoist law energy contained in the saber ray was boundless and powerful.
It was the Apocalypse Martial Ruler's strongest attack. The technique had reached the Hongmeng level, and it was considered one of the stronger ones.
Chu Kuangren had a few Hongmeng-level cultivation techniques as well.
In terms of level, they might be the same, but in terms of power, they were heaven and earth apart.
"Only a Monarch can fully bring out the potential of a Hongmeng-level cultivation technique," Chu Kuangren thought as he looked at the Tempest King.
He wanted to see what she would do to block that attack.
"Thousand Raging Tempest!"
The Tempest King channeled her energy to the limit. Tens of thousands of Daoist law energies converged and summoned an endless tempest around her.
The tempest tore even the void, and countless shards of the void reflected the worlds they represented.
The tempest swept over everything as if it wanted to destroy the world.
