Chapter 759 - Blood Origin Star, Light Orb, Battling Seventeen Daoist Celestials
Upon entering the Blood Abyss, Chu Kuangren was completely surrounded by an abundance of Blood Source Power. Most Firmament Star cultivators, Emperors included, would find it difficult to survive in such an environment.
Only those who possessed physiques unique to the Blood Tribe could survive. However, even a Blood Tribe Heavenly Imperial would find it difficult to use all of these Blood Source Power for their own.
Despite that, it was easy for Chu Kuangren!
He knew that destroying the source of the Blood Abyss would not be an easy feat. He needed to become stronger.
Hence, Chu Kuangren channeled the Universal Cauldron Physique’s power to its limit and swallowed the surrounding Blood Source Power like a giant whale.
With Dark Blood Energy’s support, his strengths increased even drastically.
In the depths of the Blood Abyss were mostly darkness.
At the edge of the abyss, however, a crimson light sparkled.
Chu Kuangren went towards the light.
He traversed through the light and realized his horizon was growing wider. When Chu Kuangren’s world was lit up again, he was greeted by a majestic mountain that soared through the sky.
A crimson orb was placed above the peak of the mountain. Inside the bright orb was seething with countless mythical Daoist patterns.
Chu Kuangren mobilized his Emperor Thought and was shocked to learn where he was now.
He was now in the Blood Tribe’s birthplace, the Blood Origin Star.
The was at least twenty light-years worth of distance between Firmament Star and Blood Origin Star. This meant that he had used the Blood Abyss to travel through twenty light-years of space!
“Lil Ai, analyze the orb.”
Chu Kuangren stared at the orb.
He guessed that the orb had very much to do with the Blood Abyss.
“Yes, Master.” With the Omniscient Spirit’s analysis, Chu Kuangren learned a great deal about that enormous orb.
His intuition was right. The orb was precisely the source of the Blood Abyss. Using blood gemstones as fuel and the Blood God Mountain as a medium, they could convert the myriads of energy forms in the universe into Blood Source Power.
Meanwhile, in order to shut the Blood Abyss down…
There were two ways.
The first was for the Ardent King to shut it down voluntarily.
The second was to destroy the orb.
The former was impossible.
Whereas the latter posed a huge risk.
The orb contained a tremendous amount of energy that, if shattered by an external force, the power that would leak could bring about devastating consequences. It would flatten half of Blood Origin Star.
As a person who was fond of mass destruction, Chu Kuangren, of course, opted for the latter!
“The Firmament Star is now in a crucial state. I can’t delay any longer. This is the only way.”
“Besides, destroying half of Blood Origin Star can only be good news for Firmament Star. There’s no reason why I should be concerned.”
Chu Kuangren was determined.
He possessed the Immortal Body, so there was nothing to be afraid of!
Perhaps there were many on Blood Origin Star who did not participate in the Blood Tribe’s war and that the destruction of this orb may take away countless innocent lives. However, Chu Kuangren did not have the luxury to think.
It was a war between civilizations!
There were bound to be casualties.
Chu Kuangren lifted the Divine Absolute Sword and swung it towards the orb.
The sword qi locked onto the orb.
Yet, just before the sword qi managed to reach the orb, several miniverses emerged in the scene and insulated Chu Kuangren’s sword qi from its target.
Several Blood Tribe Daoist Celestials appeared.
These were the former kings of the Blood Tribe houses.
These days, they resided within the Blood God Mountain.
One of the Blood Tribe Daoist Celestials was surprised when he saw Chu Kuangren. “Oh, your aura tells me that you’re from Firmament Star, yet you reek of Blood Source Power as well. Just what are you?”
The Blood Source Power was a type of energy only wielded by Blood Tribe cultivators.
They had never seen it existing in other cultivators.
Never would they have thought that a cultivator from their enemy territory could wield it.
“He’s trying to destroy the source of the Blood Abyss. It seems like he has traveled through the Blood Abyss as well. How amusing. How did a Firmament Star cultivator manage to travel through the Blood Abyss anyway?”
“And that aura… Is it the Heavenly Dao?”
“Interesting, very interesting. He must be that freak who killed King Bai.”
“Heh, I didn’t think he would walk right into our nest.”
The Blood Tribe Daoist Celestials discussed.
They had heard about Chu Kuangren from the Blood Kings.
However, this was their first time seeing Chu Kuangren in person. They studied Chu Kuangren curiously while being utterly unconcerned that he would destroy the orb.
After all, this entire place was heavily guarded. As strong as Chu Kuangren was, there was no way he could fight more than a dozen Daoist Celestials by himself.
That would be ridiculous.
It was surprising enough that Chu Kuangren had managed to kill a Daoist Celestial despite not being one himself. Nevertheless, to kill more than a dozen Daoist Celestials alone would be preposterous.
The Daoist Celestials would never consider such a scenario.
Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren was in no mood to chat.
He activated his Spatial Conveyor Skill, only to find that the Daoist Celestials were long prepared for this to happen. They had expanded their miniverses and sealed off all routes for Chu Kuangren to teleport.
Besides, this was the Blood God Mountain of Blood Origin Star!
The spatial structure of this planet was vastly different from that of the outer world. Since he had just arrived, he did not have the chance to study it well yet.
This posed another layer of challenge to his Spatial Conveyor Skill.
Chu Kuangren counted his opponent.
There were seventeen Daoist Celestials.
It seemed like it would be a tough battle ahead.
“Kill!”
Under the Dao Convergence State, Chu Kuangren’s emotions were unruffled. He lightly grunted and swung the Divine Absolute Sword forward.
With the aid of a Daoist Weapon, Chu Kuangren’s combat strengths grew stronger.
Combining that with his Prominent-grade Esoteric Techniques, Chu Kuangren could draw even greater power from his sword.
However, the Daoist Celestials were unfazed.
“Empyrean River Slash!”
“Starcrush Finger!”
The Blood Tribe Daoist Celestials unleashed their Esoteric Techniques as well.
As the energies clashed with each other, a violent storm ensued in the surrounding area.
Chu Kuangren’s sword qi was instantly shattered.
Yet, he did not take measures in dodging his opponents’ attacks. He relied upon his raw physical strength and his Immortal body to charge brutally into battle.
“Is he suicidal?”
“Hmph, even if he is, there’s no way he’s destroying the Blood Abyss.”
A Daoist Celestial leaped forward and unleashed a punch at Chu Kuangren.
Chu Kuangren did not evade his attack. Instead, he absorbed it before swinging his Divine Absolute Sword forward.
A ray of sword qi was discharged right into the Daoist Celestial’s chest, where a large amount of blood spurted from his wound.
“D*mn it!”
“Blood Cloud Chain!”
A Daoist Celestial summoned a fury of chains that attempted to shackle Chu Kuangren.
“Universal chain!”
Chu Kuangren retaliated by summoning a rain of purple-colored chains that clashed with the Daoist Celestial’s attack. Red and purple sparkles were accompanied by incessant clanking sounds that echoed throughout the battlefield.
Chu Kuangren continued to dash towards the orb.
“In your dreams!”
A Blood Bestial Daoist Celestial shrieked as he unleashed an enormous polearm shadow above Chu Kuangren.
“Invincible Technique, Inverted Universe!”
Chu Kuangren swung his sword.
His sword clashed with the Daoist Celestial’s polearm and forced both parties back.
Just then, a crimson chain crawled onto Chu Kuangren’s left arm and clung deadly onto his limb.
“Heh, I’ve finally caught you!”
The Daoist Celestial who summoned the Blood Cloud Chain said.
However, Chu Kuangren’s gaze was still indifferent. Without the slightest hesitation, he raised the Divine Absolute Sword with his right hand and swung it towards his left arm.
