“What if it includes me?”
An indifferent voice resounded through the Godly Mountain. At that moment, a handsome and exquisite white-clad figure emerged from the void, slowly walking toward them from the air. With a longsword strapped around his waist, the majestic poise and aura he exuded swept through the entire Godly Mountain like a tsunami.
That sheer power made the gods’ pupils shrink.
It was especially true for the King of Gods.
His eyes narrowed slightly, a chill seething from them. “This familiar energy… This guy is not dead yet!”
They said the one who knows you best is your enemy.
The saying was indeed true.
Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial, Zhan Xing, and the rest of the people had not even noticed Chu Kuangren’s identity. Yet, the King of Gods had already picked it up and made the correct judgment at the first moment.
Although his face had changed, the energy from Chu Kuangren’s body was so unforgettable that the King of Gods remembered it for dozens of eras. Even today, he could not forget it.
“Heh. If you gods are not completely dead yet, won’t it be impolite if I leave this world before you do?” Chu Kuangren smiled.
Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial and Zhan Xing exchanged glances.
They had no idea how Chu Kuangren and the King of Gods knew each other.
However, Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial had seen Chu Kuangren cast the Single Thought Series technique. Ever since then, he had a faint idea in his heart as to who Chu Kuangren was.
“Who the hell are you?!”
Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial looked at Chu Kuangren, doubtful.
Chu Kuangren also looked back at the Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial. With eyes as indifferent as ice, he replied the latter, “I heard you plan on signing a Human-God Treaty with the gods on behalf of the entire human race. Answer me this. Do you think you have the right to do so?!”
“Why don’t I have the right?! I am now the strongest person in the entire human race, and most of the Daoist Celestials subject themselves to my rule. At my command, the hundreds of millions of soldiers in the extraterritorial region will not hesitate to charge at the enemies for me!”
“Tell me now. Do I have the right?!”
Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial yelled it out as if he wanted to prove something.
The Emperor qi on his body surged and Daoist patterns intertwined, converging to form an enormous Heavenly Golden Imperial Avatar with a terrifying poise.
“Hah.”
Chu Kuangren did not immediately answer him. All he did was chuckle.
“What are you laughing at?”
Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial’s face turned gloomy.
“I’m laughing at you… for the fool that you are!”
“Asshole!”
After correctly guessing Chu Kuangren’s identity, Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial found that the smile on his adversary’s face deeply stung his self-esteem.
Furious, he urged the Heavenly Golden Imperial Avatar behind him to punch out at Chu Kuangren. In an instant, the ferocious Heavenly Golden energy gushed out!
The magnitude of that power was so great that it could crush stars!
Transcendental Daoist Celestial and the others’ expressions changed slightly.
Meanwhile, the King of Gods’ eyes narrowed as he watched on with great interest. “Interesting. I didn’t expect there would be another strong elite in the human race other than Zhan Xing.”
“Single Thought Series, Ultimate Chasm of Convergence!”
Chu Kuangren gently raised his hand, and his mind power surged out.
A vortex formed in the void.
Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial’s power was absorbed by the vortex entirely, not hurting Chu Kuangren even one bit. This attack shocked every man and god present.
It was not only because of the strength that Chu Kuangren displayed.
In fact, it was mainly because of the significance of that technique he just used.
That was especially appalling for the gods. Their pupils trembled as they looked at Chu Kuangren with an indescribable panic in their hearts.
“The Human King!”
“No, impossible! Isn’t he already dead?!”
“But that mind power technique… He’s definitely the Human King. Also, his Dao… It is almost identical to that of the Human King. If this is not him, who else can it be?!”
To the gods, humans were not scary.
However, that one man was the scariest!
That man had been a lingering nightmare to all of them!
The nightmare they thought had disappeared was back again but in a much more domineering and stronger poise!
“When I left you, you were still just a Heavenly Imperial. Now, you have advanced to the peak-stage Minor Daoist Celestial Realm. That is quite gratifying.”
Chu Kuangren said calmly, in the tone of an elder.
Ethereal Daoist Celestial and the other Daoist Celestials standing behind Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial found themselves shaking with emotion. Some looked excited, while some looked terrified.
Was that man really back?
“Come. I’ll show you one of my moves too.”
Chu Kuangren touched Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial gently with his fingertips. Instantly, majestic mind power gathered in the sky like torrents and turned into a golden-red fire lotus.
The fire lotus was utterly beautiful and dazzling.
Nonetheless, it contained a force capable of destroying the world.
It was none other than the Human King’s ultimate technique, Single Thought Series, Cataclysmic Pantheon Flame Lotus!
In the face of this move, Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial pushed his Emperor qi to its limits, and the Heavenly Imperial Avatar behind him punched out at the fire lotus.
The Daoist patterns converged from the Heavenly Golden energy and spread towards the fire lotus with force.
The moment the two horrifying energies collided, the entire Godly Mountain quaked incessantly.
If it were not for the Godly Mountain’s unique structure, the power caused by this blow would have been enough to destroy millions of kilometers of land here.
The fire lotus overwhelmed the Heavenly Golden energy and utterly destroyed the Heavenly Golden Imperial Avatar. Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial was also affected by the powerful impact. His face turned pale, and he was directly hurled off his feet, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.
The Venerable Gods at the scene were absolutely horrified.
The Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial’s strength surpassed any of the Venerable Gods, except the King of Gods and the Spacetime Venerable God.
Yet, even such a powerful existence was blasted away by Chu Kuangren with one move!
At that moment, they were more certain of his Human King identity.
Besides the Human King, who else among the human race could have such incredible strength?!
“Ethereal, Bloodwave, Dreadwind…” Chu Kuangren’s gaze swept over the Daoist Celestials behind the Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial, and he read out their names one by one.
Anyone who made eye contact with him inadvertently flinched and dodged a little.
It seemed as though they were ashamed or afraid.
“I can give all of you a chance to choose a side now.”
Chu Kuangren said calmly.
All the Daoist Celestials looked at each other before they walked toward Chu Kuangren. Facing him, they knelt on the ground, their expression filled with guilt.
“We’ve failed you, King… Shame on us.”
Chu Kuangren looked at Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial, who was not far away from them, once again. With blood on the corner of his mouth and his hair scattered, Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial stared at the scene in front of him with dissatisfaction.
“You said you were the strongest among all humans? But you can’t even deal a single hit from me.”
“You said nearly half of the human race’s Daoist Celestials obeyed your orders. Why don’t you ask them again now and see if they would still like to follow your rule?”
“You said that at your command, hundreds of millions of soldiers in the extraterritorial region would charge ahead for you? Why don’t you see whether they’re willing to listen to you or do they believe in a lone mercenary like me, who topped the rankings on the battle leaderboard, more?”
Each of Chu Kuangren’s words was like knives, cold and piercing. Every time he uttered a word, the Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial felt like his heart was stabbed.
After a few words, Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial became so pale that it was beyond description. His Daoist core was almost about to collapse.
The scheme that took him years of planning now looked incredibly ridiculous. To think the whole thing failed the moment Chu Kuangren returned!
That was because he was against the greatest king of the human race!
He was the king who led the humans through the darkest years and brought them a newfound hope.
In the face of such a king, how could he ever succeed in replacing him?
Chu Kuangren need not do anything. Just one sentence was enough to negate everything that the Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial had done so far.
“Why? Why does this keep happening to me!”
“You’re already dead. Why come back now?! Why do you have to come back and stop me from leading the human race into a new era?!”
Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial roared at Chu Kuangren like a madman.
Chu Kuangren looked at him and said indifferently, “The human race will move toward a new era, but it’s definitely not one where we have to compromise with these gods, who once held the humans by their noses and treated them as farm animals.”
“The first step towards a new era is to eradicate internal instability, such as…. you!”
