Chapter 1382: Meeting Jue Wushen, You Only Need to Defeat Me

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Somewhere inside a mountain range on Holy Violet Planet, Chu Kuangren was refining the various treasures he obtained from his past adventures. At that moment, a five-colored light rose into the sky, its Five Ways brilliance radiating everywhere.

A man in white robes walked out from the cave, with Five Ways light circling his every movement.

It was as if he was the master of the five elements.

That person was none other than Chu Kuangren’s clone.

By then, his clone had refined the Five Ways treasures left behind by the Heavenly Daoist Tian, the Little Heavenly Ruler, and others back at the Heavenly Dao Spire.

His clone was now even stronger than before.

Through conservative estimations, Chu Kuangren’s clone was at least as powerful as the other top-tier Prodigies out there.

“Lan Yu and my real self are still in closed-door meditation. Although they’re protected by the seals and various restrictions, I think I should remain here just in case,” Chu Kuangren thought out loud.

Meanwhile, Prodigies and sky-prides from various orthodoxies had been busy searching for treasures to strengthen themselves.

Although Chu Kuangren had been protecting his real self, Lan Yu, and others during this time, his Immortal Consciousness was still keeping up to date with the current news. For instance, Ye Zhu recently obtained an ancient sword cultivator’s inheritance that made him incredibly stronger, and Yuen Feng of the Battle Saint Ape Tribe managed to obtain a piece of divine steel left behind by the Ape Forefather, which had enabled him to receive a portion of the Ape Forefather’s inheritance…

One of the Underworld’s Hellion King successors inherited the inheritance of an ancient Underworld’s great one, gaining them control of a certain treasure that enabled them to wield karmic energy.

Moreover, a Prodigy of the Demonic Dao discovered a demon sword, which allowed them to recover parts of the Sword Demon’s inheritance. As such, that person was now a rising star among the Demonic Dao.

Information and news similar to those were endless, but two of them piqued Chu Kuangren’s interest the most.

The first one was regarding Shang Honghua.

It seemed she had come to the Holy Violet Planet as well. She was last seen on one of the other continents and was rumored to have obtained some ancient great one’s inheritance. As a result, her combat strength was now very terrifying.

That ancient great one was said to be related to the Dragon Palace.

Chu Kuangren took note of that as he planned to search for her after some time.

Besides the news about Shang Honghua, Chu Kuangren was made aware of another piece of information.

It was related to the Celestial Demon Tribe.

According to the news, many Pseudo Celestial Demon cultivators had come to the Holy Violet Planet recently.

“Seeing that Pseudo Celestial Demon Tribe cultivators are all gathering here, it seems that the Celestial Demon King coronation ceremony is about to begin.”

“As for me, who’s appointed their Celestial Demon King, I suppose Jue Wushen should be seeking me out soon.”

Chu Kuangren pondered.

While thinking about that, his gaze suddenly narrowed as he sensed something. Then, he looked toward the nearby mountains.

A figure in black was approaching from the far end of the nearby mountains.

It was a young man with sharp eyebrows walking proudly toward Chu Kuangren. With every step he took, a trace of tyrannical celestial demonic qi emanated. That power was so terrifying and powerful that it immediately reduced the nearby mountains into nothing.

By the time he arrived before Chu Kuangren, that celestial demonic qi was as vast as a great ocean. Anyone who sensed it would shudder in fear.

Chu Kuangren stood where he was, with countless Immortal Sparks bursting from his body and lighting up the sky. At the same time, his mysterious Five Ways energy poured out, akin to a colorful ocean!

The moment the two “oceans” of energies collided, the sheer might from the impact cracked the ground beneath them, forming a magnificent canyon stretching thousands of kilometers.

Both Chu Kuangren and that person stood on opposite ends of the canyon as their gazes met.

One was calm and emotionless, while the other was tyrannical and merciless!

Boom!

Celestial demon qi and Five Ways energy erupted once more as if two gigantic beasts were fighting violently in the void. It painted the skies with colorful intertwining Daoist patterns.

Besides the ground, which had split apart earlier, even the clouds in the sky were now sliced in half.

One half of it was pure nothingness while the other was filled with colorful sparks.

The frightening shockwaves of their aura drew the attention of many sky-prides, who quickly rushed over to see what was happening.

Upon seeing the scene, all of them were horrified.

“What a powerful clash of energy. If the mere collision of their auras could release such power, how terrifying will the battle between those two be?!”

“Who is that person? He’s able to go toe to toe with Chu Kuangren!”

Countless sky-prides were engaged in a discussion.

Soon, some of them recognized that person, and it put on a serious look on their faces.

“Jue Wushen.” Chu Kuangren greeted the black-robed man with a firm tone.

Seeing that he was a Pseudo Celestial Demon cultivator who possessed such immense celestial demon power, that person must surely be none other than the rumored top-tier Prodigy, Jue Wushen.

“That’s right!”

Jue Wushen grinned. Then, he looked at Chu Kuangren and asked. “Is this the real you or your clone?”

Jue Wushen had heard of Chu Kuangren before and knew he possessed a powerful clone.

However, even he could not differentiate whether the person standing before him was the real deal or not.

“I’m his clone,” Chu Kuangren replied honestly.

At that, Jue Wushen’s eyes widened in shock. He thought that person must be the real Chu Kuangren to be able to go against him head-to-head like that.

He did not expect it would be Chu Kuangren’s clone instead.

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said, “You’re worthy of becoming the Celestial Demon King!”

“I am worthy of becoming the Celestial Demon King. However, am I worthy of becoming your king?” Chu Kuangren asked calmly.

“Defeat me during the coronation ceremony, and every celestial demon cultivator, including me, shall bow down to you as our king!”

“Is that so? That seems easy.”

“Oh, you’re truly as arrogant as the rumors say.” Jue Wushen chuckled.

He was not annoyed by Chu Kuangren’s response. After all, from what he could see, Chu Kuangren had the power to justify his arrogance.

Just then, he frowned a little as he received unpleasant news. Following that, he said, “I shall come to find you again. For the time being, I have something else to deal with first.”

“Is it the Mountain Ghoul Divine Daoist?” Chu Kuangren thought.

He, too, had heard about the Mountain Ghoul Divine Daoist awakening a Celestial Demon Physique. Besides that, he learned that the latter would be taking some sort of action against the Pseudo Celestial Demon Tribe.

“No one must be allowed to interfere with the Celestial Demon Tribe’s coronation ceremony. You, just stay here, save your energy, and defeat me during the coronation ceremony. As for everything else, I shall handle them!” Jue Wushen said bluntly before he left as domineeringly as he came.

Chu Kuangren could not help but chuckle. “Now that’s someone worthy of becoming my follower.”

Then, he looked into the distance with a gloomy expression.

‘The Mountain Ghoul Divine Daoist … It’s the Immortal Hall again, huh?’

Be it the Kunlun Immortal Hall or the Eastern Sovereign Immortal Hall, both of them were the cause of the Human Emperor’s downfall.

During this time, the Immortal Hall’s every move had made Chu Kuangren extremely displeased.

“The East Sovereign’s Nine Houses and Kunlun’s Six Royals? Hah! It looks like I’m going to have a lot of fun with them in the future.”

…

Meanwhile, somewhere on the Holy Violet Planet, countless mysterious runes were circling a mountain top, forming an eerie and evil-looking runic barrier.

Dozens of Pseudo Celestial Demon Tribe cultivators were trapped inside the barrier, struggling to defend against the barrier’s numerous offensive mechanisms.

Boom, boom!

A bundle of light appeared on the barrier, followed by several rays of runic light that were unleashed.

Lin Qiu and Ming Yifeng took action to block that attack.

Behind them were dozens of severely exhausted celestial demon cultivators who could not hold on any longer.

That barrier was just too powerful.

Even a Prodigy trapped within it would find it hard to escape.

“Damn you, Mountain Ghoul Divine Daoist!” Ming Yifeng cursed, and there was a terrible expression on his face.

They were all trapped here because of the Mountain Ghoul Divine Daoist’s schemes.

Boom!

At that time, dark clouds began to gather in the sky!

A terrifying celestial demon qi descended from the sky and landed mercilessly on the runic barrier!
