Chapter 633 - How Durable Are You, Pursuing The Slumbering Emperor Coffin
To protect the Nangong Huang, Lan Yu, and the others, Chu Kuangren made a triumphant entrance and defeated an ancient warrior with a single punch.
The seemingly effortless endeavor had shocked the observing Sovereigns from afar.
Then, Chu Kuangren aimed his fist towards the Slumbering Emperor Coffin and unleashed his Invincible Techniques.
The Daoist Rhymes transformed into a series of Daoist runes that unfolded endlessly into the realm, forming a conjuration depicting a calamitous scenery.
Several ancient warriors attempted to defend themselves but were no match for Chu Kuangren’s newly enhanced abilities.
Followed by several explosions of blood mists, the power of Chu Kuangren’s Inverted Universe crushed ruthlessly onto the Slumbering Emperor Coffin and caused a deafening explosion in its wake.
The Slumbering Emperor Coffin catapulted away, and its cover could no longer contain the overflowing Chaotic qi.
Chu Kuangren was so delighted to see the Chaotic qi emanating from the Slumbering Emperor Coffin that he immediately reached his hands out for it.
“Oh, it looks like you’re filled with a rich amount of Chaotic qi.”
Chu Kuangren was overjoyed to see the Chaotic qi in his hands.
The overflowing Chaotic qi was such a great Opportunity of Fortune. In Chu Kuangren’s perspective, the Slumbering Emperor Coffin went from a cursed object to a treasure haven.
“Then, I must crack you wide open today!”
Chu Kuangren was grinning from ear to ear.
He could not miss out on such an abundance of Chaotic qi.
As such, he unleashed another Invincible Technique.
This time, the Slumbering Emperor Coffin shuddered slightly before encasing itself within layers of chains, and more Daoist runes began to hover on its surface.
This time, the Invincible Technique merely caused the coffin to shudder slightly. There was no longer any Chaotic Qi flowing out of it.
It made Chu Kuangren ponder for a moment. Perhaps the reason why the Slumbering Emperor Coffin was absorbing all those life essences was to seal away something within instead of resurrecting it.
Could it be that Chaotic qi? Or perhaps it was some other entities?
Nevertheless, Chu Kuangren did not obsess over it.
All he desired now was to hoard all of those Chaotic Qi!
“Now I’m curious just how durable this coffin can be.”
Chu Kuangren attacked again.
The ancient warriors retaliated in unison in a violent clash of energies.
The explosion that ensued cast a wide net of destruction over the surroundings.
Chu Kuangren frowned.
“This is too close to Nangong Huang’s location for comfort. It’s best that I bring this battle further away.”
Chu Kuangren summoned an enormous rune, causing the natural qi around him to converge into a colorful Dragon qi that danced in the air.
It was the Everchanging Nine Dragon Rune!
Followed by Chu Kuangren’s recent increase in abilities, his runic powers were also considerably strengthened. Powered by twenty-four strands of Emperor qi, the Everchanging Nine Dragons unleashed a wave of terrifying energy that almost crumbled the lands.
The Sovereigns’ jaws dropped.
What power was that?!
Could someone below the level of an Emperor achieve such a feat?
They felt that Chu Kuangren would still overpower the battlefield even if the Slumbering Emperor Coffin could somehow acquire the reinforcement of a dozen more outstanding Sovereigns. Chu Kuangren’s combat strength now resembled those of an Emperor more than a Sovereign!
Sensing Chu Kuangren’s earth-shattering power, the ancient warriors immediately channeled their Emperor qi towards Chu Kuangren. Each of them unleashed wave after wave of destructive attack.
Some of those ancient warriors were no weaker than the remarkable Sovereigns, such as the Tempest Sword Sovereign. In fact, there were even some who were stronger within the formation.
After all, those who could venture into the depths of the Forbidden Barren Wasteland were, by no means, ordinary cultivators.
“Empyrean Maelstrom!”
Chu Kuangren discharged his spiritual powers and summoned a gigantic maelstrom that was forged out of numerous Daoist runes.
The energies of the ancient warriors struck into the maelstrom only for them to disintegrate and even deflect.
As a result, the ancient warrior’s deflected energies were turned into a typhoon that swept them all away.
The wind had even swept the Slumbering Emperor Coffin more than a thousand kilometers away.
Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren did not stop attacking.
The energies of his Daoist Physiques erupted and intersected in the void to form a giant colorful avatar. It was none other than the Almighty Avatar!
This time, the Almighty Avatar was radiating with another form of energy. It was that of the Toxic Plague Physique, which caused the avatar to ooze clouds of chilling toxic qi.
“What? Is that the Toxic Plague Physique?!”
“What’s going on with that avatar? How did it gain the power of the Toxic Plague Physique?!”
“Could it be that the avatar has absorbed the Toxin Sovereign’s power for itself? How did it manage to do it?!”
The Sovereigns stared at Chu Kuangren with goosebumps growing all over their forearms. Chu Kuangren’s ability was far beyond their understanding.
Moreover, his techniques were both enigmatic and ever-changing.
Taking one’s Daoist Physique for his own.
It was not entirely unheard of. However, cultivators typically needed to resort to theft techniques in order to achieve such a feat.
It was clear that Chu Kuangren would never use such a technique.
Despite that, no one knew how else he managed to pull it off.
Chu Kuangren did not care how shocked the Sovereigns were. With a fist launched, the avatar discharged a fist qi that struck the Slumbering Emperor Coffin and flung it even further away.
Since the ancient warriors were bounded to the Slumbering Emperor Coffin by the chains, they were also flung into the distance along with the coffin.
Chu Kuangren leaped forward and activated his Spatial Conveyor Skills, teleporting himself right before the Slumbering Emperor Coffin. The Almighty Avatar punched forward, causing yet a dozen of ancient warriors to perish under its fury.
Chu Kuangren was unstoppable. He was determined to break the Slumbering Emperor Coffin, and the ancient warriors could not stop him at all.
The Slumbering Emperor Coffin shuddered slightly. Following that, the ancient warriors stopped battling and began dashing into the distance instead.
It seemed like they were… running away?!
“Trying to run? Not so soon.”
Chu Kuangren grinned and began to give chase.
The Sovereigns were speechless.
The Slumbering Emperor Coffin — a cursed object that once terrorized all of Emperor Road and its archaic orthodoxies — was fleeing from Chu Kuangren?!
How could an archaic cursed object lose so much of its significance so quickly?!
“Isn’t Chu Kuangren… too aggressive?”
One of the Sovereigns gulped and stuttered.
…
Many places in Emperor Road had been turned into a wasteland after the Slumbering Emperor Coffin’s rampage. Countless living beings were living in perpetual fear, not knowing when the Slumbering Emperor Coffin would come and devour them.
In a city.
A cultivator had suddenly sensed the approach of a deadly entity and immediately turned white.
“It’s… It’s the Slumbering Emperor Coffin!”
“Quick! Run for your dear lives!”
The Slumbering Emperor Weapon had always left death in its path.
When the people sensed the arrival of the Slumbering Emperor Coffin, they immediately panicked and fled without even packing their belongings.
Just then, a few noticed that something strange was happening.
The ancient warriors who were dragging the coffin did not pay any attention to them at all. Instead, they were rushing to somewhere else above the cultivators.
It was almost as if… they were trying to hide from something?
That realization terrified many cultivators.
Could the Slumbering Emperor Coffin be afraid of anything else?
That was impossible!
Yet, just then, they witnessed a white-clothed figure giving chase to the Slumbering Emperor Coffin and was accompanied by a colorful avatar.
The figure unleashed a punch, and a fury of majestic fist strength spread far and wide, causing an ancient warrior attempting to halt his path to explode into pulps!
That person was chasing after the Slumbering Emperor Coffin!
At that moment, the cultivators could swear they were witnessing the arrival of a heavenly god who had descended to rescue all of humanity!
