Chapter 1169: The Soul Vanquisher’s Decision, Thousand Eyes Formation, Refining The Emperor Seal
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Countless dead souls knelt to the ground!
Chu Kuangren stood with hands behind his back, and before him was an army of dead souls, who were all kneeling on the ground.
No matter Earthen Immortals or Heavenly Immortals, everyone was stunned to see such a scene.
‘What’s going on?’
‘One word of his, and countless dead souls knelt to the ground!’
“Who is he?”
“How did he do it?”
Everyone was puzzled, while the countless ghouls were terrified.
Under the terrifying gazes of the crowd and ghouls, Chu Kuangren walked slowly to the armored dead soul with indifferent eyes.
He stared at the back of the armored dead soul and noticed a thread in a place that none could see.
It was an invisible thread!
“It’s the Soul-Vanquishing Tribe again. What a small world.” Chu Kuangren chuckled.
He had met the tribe in Fengdu Underworld City before and did not expect to meet them again here.
Just when he was about to make a move, he realized that the invisible thread was broken and had disappeared.
“Oh. It has escaped pretty fast.”
A glint flashed in Chu Kuangren’s eyes.
On the other hand, the armored dead soul felt that the power restraining him had disappeared. He knew that it must be Chu Kuangren before him that the Soul Vanquisher was afraid of.
“Who are you?” the armored dead soul asked in a trembling voice.
Chu Kuangren raised his hand to show the Emperor Seal. “I’m your Emperor!”
It shocked many dead souls that had a consciousness.
‘Ghost Emperor!’
‘He’s the Ghost Emperor!’
Now, they understood why they could not resist Chu Kuangren.
It was insane to make an enemy of the Ghost Emperor in Fengdu Underworld City. What was more, they were only a group of souls.
Even in other places, the Ghost Emperor had absolute power over the souls. After all, he was the king of ghosts.
“Let’s go. Bring me to the Imperial Palace,” said Chu Kuangren.
“Alright.”
The armored dead soul no longer resisted. Even a Gilded Immortal Soul in Fengdy City could only obey Chu Kuangren, let alone a Heavenly Immortal like him.
“So he’s the new Ghost Emperor.”
“The rumored Hundred Academy’s Chief is such a magnificent figure. No wonder he could defeat Lil Zhurong.”
Everyone was amazed as they watched Chu Kuangren leave.
…
In the Imperial Palace, the Soul Vanquisher suddenly opened his eyes and furrowed his brows. “I didn’t expect Chu Kuangren to come so quickly. This is surprising.”
He looked at a huge black seal in front of him.
It was the Samsara Emperor Seal.
“The difficulty of refining the Emperor Seal is beyond my imagination, and with my ability, I can’t refine it in a short period.
“Shall I take it away with me?
“No. Chu Kuangren is already here. Since he also has an Emperor Seal, the seals must be able to sense each other. If I bring it with me without refining it, I’d be revealing my location at any time. It’s not wise to make an enemy of Chu Kuangren in Fengdu City.”
“Leave the Emperor Seal and retreat!”
The Soul Vanquisher changed his mind and made a decision. He gritted his teeth and decided to leave behind the Emperor Seal, which was comparable to an Arch Gilded Immortal Weapon.
“Chu Kuangren, I must prepare some gifts for you before I leave.” With that, the Soul Vanquisher took out a jade scroll and crushed it.
In an instant, countless runes flew out from the jade scroll, carved themselves onto the Imperial Palace’s walls and pillars, and then disappeared.
“Chu Kuangren, I hope you’ll like this Thousand Eyes Formation.”
After that, the Soul Vanquisher’s figure flashed and disappeared in place.
An Emperor Seal was left suspended in the air.
It did not take long before Chu Kuangren and all the dead souls arrived at the Imperial Palace.
Chu Kuangren could feel something was wrong the moment he stepped into the palace.
Hum…
Ripples appeared in the void.
On the walls and the pillars around the Imperial Palace, dark purple eyeballs appeared in large numbers and stared at Chu Kuangren.
Then, a strange energy fluctuation emerged.
It was the soul energy!
Behind Chu Kuangren, the dead souls howled miserably under the impact of the soul energy fluctuation. Some souls were even crushed to the core.
However, Chu Kuangren was unaffected and merely stood where he was.
His soul was beyond strong as it already possessed a strand of Gilded Trait. Therefore, the soul energy fluctuation could hardly influence him.
“Is this a technique combining rune and soul?”
Chu Kuangren mobilized his Immortal Consciousness and transformed it into an invisible force to block the impact of the soul energy.
A soul technique was the most suitable means to deal with the attack because an ordinary Immortal’s Core would not produce a significant effect unless one’s realm was far stronger than his opponent.
On the other hand, an Immortal Consciousness was the soul energy’s extended technique.
Chu Kuangren formed a sword hand sign and infused his Immortal Consciousness into the sword qi. As soon as the sharp and majestic sword qi surged out, it tore all the surrounding runes down.
The Thousand Eyes Formation collapsed in an instant!
Further away, the Soul Vanquisher, who had left Fengdu city, was slightly surprised. “As expected of Chu Kuangren, he has broken my Thousand Eyes Formation so quickly.”
He closed his eyes and pondered. It would be a lie to say he did not resent Chu Kuangren for being defeated twice in a row.
However, the Soul Vanquisher was aware that he was not Chu Kuangren’s opponent for the time being. He would be courting death if he made a rash move.
“Although I don’t want to confront him head-on, I can give him some trouble.”
“I heard the people from Yincao Underworld City are here too. They should be interested in the Samsara Emperor Seals.”
“If I spread the news about Chu Kuangren obtaining another Emperor Seal, it should be able to catch the attention of many people,” said the Soul Vanquisher mischievously.
…
In the Imperial Palace, the eerie soul fluctuation dissipated as Chu Kuangren broke the Thousand Eyes Formation with a sword attack.
Then, he glanced around him but found no trace of the Soul Vanquisher.
“It looks like he has left. I must say that he escaped pretty quickly. Is he playing a game of cat and mouse with me? Heh, interesting.”
Chu Kuangren did not take it to heart.
In his opinion, the Soul Vanquisher was a mouse that hid in the dark. In that case, he would trample the Soul Vanquisher to death when the latter emerged.
He looked at the Emperor Seal that was suspended in the air.
As he stretched his hand out, the Emperor Seal automatically fell into his hand as if being summoned.
“All of you can safeguard me from the outside. I want to refine this Emperor Seal in the Imperial Palace,” Chu Kuangren said to the armored dead soul and the others.
“Understood, Ghost Emperor.”
The armored dead soul and others dared not rebel.
“Lan Yu, Lil Red, and Lil Fox, these Seven-beaded White Lotuses can be of great use to you. Lan Yu, you take three. Lil Red and Lil Fox, each of you take two. All of you can have a closed-door meditation and refine them here,” said Chu Kuangren.
The Seven-beaded White Lotuses were Superb-grade Immortal Herbs beneficial to True Immortals.
Chu Kuangren reckoned that with Lan Yu’s competency, she could reach the Heavenly Immortal Realm after refining the three lotus seeds.
“Alright.”
After dividing the lotus seeds, the three women each found a place to refine them.
With that, Chu Kuangren began to refine the Samsara Emperor Seal. Previously, with Shenshu’s help, the Emperor Seal recognized him as master without him having to refine it.
This time, he had to refine the seal himself, but it was not a difficult task for him to refine the Emperor Seal because he possessed the Heavenly Samsara Physique.
When Chu Kuangren and others were in closed-door meditation, the news of him obtaining the second Emperor Seal and being in Fengdu City spread rapidly.
Many cultivators rushed to the Fengdu, but they dared not enter rashly even if they wanted the Emperor Seal.
After all, Fengdu City was Chu Kuangren’s home field.
They could only wait for Chu Kuangren to come out from the closed-door meditation.
