Chapter 736 - The First Empress of Ages, Heavenly Tormentor Emerges, Heavenly Dao Energy
“Oh, a consensus vote? Do I have the right to vote too?” A cold voice suddenly sounded.
A woman in white walked toward them slowly.
Their visitor was only at the Heavenly Imperial Realm, and her aura was not even as strong as that of Chu Kuangren. However, when everyone saw her, they could help but widen their eyes.
Transcendental Daoist Celestial could not hide the joy from his face.
“It’s her!”
“Who knew that she’d come.”
“This energy… It’s so weak. Rumor has it that back when she reincarnated into the formation core, she used some secret method to cut away part of her soul body and reincarnated into this world as a whole new person with a fresh cultivation base. Now it seems that it is true. This should be her reincarnated body.”
“The First Empress of Ages, Luo Shui!”
The person who came was Luo Shui, formerly known as Headless Empress!
Now, she has become a Heavenly Imperial.
However, her Heavenly Imperial cultivation base was not the basis for her courage to face the Daoist Celestial. What was backing her was her other identity.
Her identity as the First Empress of Ages!
“Sister Luo Shui, you intend to protect Chu Kuangren too?”
“Yes.”
Luo Shui looked at Heavenly Daoist Celestial and said, “If you dare to hurt him, I will slit your throat once I’ve rebuilt my cultivation base and return to the Daoist Celestial Realm.”
“You…” Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial’s face sank.
To him, Luo Shui, in her current state, is not worth mentioning at all.
She was only at the Heavenly Imperial Realm, and he could easily strangle her to death with one hand.
Still, his opponent’s original vessel was the First Empress of Ages. Moreover, she had sacrificed herself as the formation core and guarded the Firmament Star for twelve eras.
He could not take her lightly based on this feat alone.
Not to mention, although her original vessel had become the formation core, it had yet fallen. God only knows if it would return in the future.
“Well, no one can stop you from protecting Chu Kuangren, but you only have seven votes at your end. I have fourteen votes from my side alone.”
“What if we add on to the seven?”
A voice appeared.
A green-clad figure emerged from the void.
The Daoist Celestials could not help but feel astonished at the sight of him.
“The First Tormentor!”
“Tsk. I can’t believe he has shown up too.”
“Interesting. This Chu Kuangren really has strong support. The Transcendental Daoist Celestial, the Heavenly Tormentor, and Luo Shui have all stood up for him.”
The man in the green shirt, who was the First Tormentor, smiled and said, “This person possesses the Heavenly Punishment energy, and I am also very curious about the current transformations that he is experiencing. So, this person will be put under us, the Heavenly Tormentors’… custody.”
Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial’s expression turned unpleasant.
Seeing that he did not respond after a long while, the man in the green shirt frowned. “Why? Do we no longer have a say in these things? Or do you think that the Heavenly Tormentors are not intimidating anymore?”
The man in the green shirt’s tone gradually became lower.
In the depths of the universe, several terrifying bursts of energy exploded out of nowhere.
“Ha! It seems like some people are getting carried away!”
“Fascinating. Back in the day, when I was fighting the gods, some of you couldn’t even hold a knife yet.”
“My dear Daoist Celestials, we may be injured, but if a battle were to break out here, I can take on two of you at once, believe it or not!”
“This kid will be placed under my care. I will kill those of you who dare to touch him, even if it costs me the last ounce of energy left in my aging body!”
The Emperor Thought of the Heavenly Tormentors came from the cold, dark universe.
Cold killing intent flooded the entire Central Heaven Asteroid.
All the Daoist Celestials were startled.
The nine Heavenly Tormentors were all the closest guards of the Human King back then. They could still vividly remember these nine people’s amazing feat in the Great Panhuman Revolt.
“Heavenly Golden, come on. Do we have the right to vote?”
The green shirt man said indifferently.
“You do.”
In the end, Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial could only submit and nod his head.
“Very well. It is now sixteen to fourteen votes. No one is allowed to stop this little guy from continuing to integrate the Dao patterns of the Central Heaven Daoist Ground.”
The man in green said.
Then, his figure turned into countless speckles of light and dissipated.
The Daoist Celestials did not hurry out of the scene.
Instead, they stayed where they were, watching Chu Kuangren continue to integrate the Dao patterns of Central Heaven Daoist Ground. They wanted to see what would happen to him after.
The ten-day limit had long passed.
However, because of Chu Kuangren’s presence, the Central Heaven Daoist Ground was still open.
This surprised all the Daoist Celestials.
In the Central Heaven Daoist Ground, the Dao patterns of the Central Heaven Daoist Ground and the Heavenly Punishment Dao Patterns gradually merged, forming a surge of immense Heavenly Punishment energy!
“This Central Heaven Daoist Ground is originally part of the power left by the Heavenly Dao a long time ago, and Chu Kuangren’s Heavenly Punishment Dao pattern is similarly a power from the Heavenly Dao. What will happen if the two are combined?”
“What this person is doing is simply unbelievable.”
“Nobody knows how far he will go.”
In the midst of the crowd’s discussion.
The Heaven Punishment Dao Pattern had completely integrated with the Dao pattern of the Central Heaven Daoist Ground.
All of a sudden, Chu Kuangren opened his eyes. Within that pair of dark eyes were none of the usual emotions a human should have. Those eyes looked as indifferent as ice.
A surge of majestic Heavenly Might emitted from his body, and the Daoist Celestials who present felt suppressed by it.
At this moment, they had an absurd feeling that the person standing in front of them was not human but… the Heavenly Dao!
In the depths of the universe, several wisps of light floated around.
These wisps of light were the Heavenly Tormentors. They, too, were paying attention to Chu Kuangren, and when they saw his battle form after he merged the Dao patterns of Central Heaven Daoist Ground, the wisps of light started to tremble in fear.
One of the light wisps could not help but blurt out, “King!”
In Central Heaven Asteroid.
The pupils of Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial, Transcendental Daoist Celestial, Luo Shui, and other few Daoist Celestials shrank upon witnessing Chu Kuangren’s current battle form.
“How is this possible?!”
“This battle form… It’s the Human King?!”
“Impossible, impossible. The Human King is dead. It has been so many years since his death. How could he appear again?”
Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial’s pupils were trembling in shock. In the past ten eras, he had never lost his composure like he did today.
There was a vague hint of horror in his eyes.
Meanwhile, back in the Daoist Ground, Chu Kuangren was experiencing his current state. He eerily felt as if he had been connected to some sort of celestial being as his every move contained an inconceivable power.
With a flicker of his mind, Daoist chants suddenly echoed from all around him, auspicious dragons and phoenixes emerged, and golden lotuses hovered in the sky. Numerous Daoist Transformations like worshipping gods and demons, sacred shrines, and other visions conjured. A boundless domineering aura spread from his body.
The Daoist Celestials could not help but feel their mouths dry up when they saw this.
Heavenly Dao Transformations emerged between his every gesture.
This was no longer something pure power could explain.
Has this person really reincarnated himself in the Heavenly Dao?!
“Lil Ai, analyze my current state.”
Chu Kuangren’s mind moved.
“Yes.”
Lil Ai, the Omniscient Spirit, began to analyze. “Master, you’re currently connected to the Heavenly Dao of Firmament Star. You can now act as a medium to exercise a portion of Heavenly Dao’s powers. These include Heavenly Punishment, nurture living beings, and conjuring Daoist Transformations…”
After getting the analysis, Chu Kuangren felt rather speechless.
Exercising Heavenly Dao Powers?!
What a mighty force this was!
The thousands of living beings on Firmament Star were created by Heavenly Dao. Yet now, he could wield the Heavenly Dao’s mighty powers.
Does this mean that he has become the overlord of every being in this world?!
Right at this moment, the Central Heaven Daoist Ground began to collapse.
The Dao patterns of the Daoist Ground were manifestations of Heavenly Dao energies, which had now been absorbed and refined by Chu Kuangren. Hence, this Daoist Ground naturally did not exist anymore.
When Chu Kuangren saw this, he could not help but feel stumped.
No way.
Would these Daoist Celestials come for his head now?
He could swear that he was only planning to comprehend the Dao patterns here and perfect his own Heavenly Punishment Dao Patterns. Little did he know that these two types of Dao patterns would suddenly resonate, and astonishingly, merge into one…
