Chapter 142: Battling Two Honorable Supremes, Sword Hoarder’s Generosity
“Even an Honorable Supreme could not figure out my real identity, I can’t believe that you, Chu Kuangren did it. It seems that you have some sort of special perceiving powers,” Northern Sea Honorable Swordsman said to Chu Kuangren.
“You guys still aren’t retreating? Even after your identities have been exposed?”
“No, we’re here for the Sword Soul, and we’re not leaving till we get it!”
Northern Sea Honorable Swordsman declared in a deep voice.
Then, sword qi started circulating on his body, and a gush of chilling Sword-based Daoist Rhyme emanated. It was like a towering tsunami, shuddering the air all around them.
“You guys plan to make enemies with the Black Heaven Sect?” Chu Kuangren raised an eyebrow, looking a little surprised. He did not expect this Northern Sea Honorable Swordsman to have such guts.
“This is the Era of Great Battles!”
“It’s not just sky-prides like you but just about everyone else is battling it out in everything. Everyone is competing for fortunes, resources, and a name for themselves!”
“If we don’t step out of our comfort zone, we’ll never make it to the very top! This Sword Soul will be mine!” A bright glint flashed from Northern Sea Honorable Swordsman’s eyes.
The Sword-based Daoist Rhyme on him became increasingly cold.
He had already attained the level of an Honorable Supreme!
The Seventh Forefather stepped out of the void and looked at Northern Sea Honorable Swordsman. “I can’t believe that you’ve already broken through to the Honorable Supreme Realm. Not bad at all.”
“The Seventh Forefather of the Black Heaven Sect, the legendary sword cultivator who has traversed galaxies and warped through time and space from several millenniums ago. Today, I am here to learn from you!” Northern Sea Honorable Swordsman made a fist salute and bowed. With his sword held horizontally to his chest, an unsettling fighting spirit flashed across in his eyes.
He then gave orders to Honorable Swordsman of Steel and Sword Hoarder, “I’ll hold the Seventh Forefather back. I’m leaving Chu Kuangren to you both.”
“Alright!”
Swish…
Northern Sea Honorable Swordsman dashed towards the Seventh Forefather.
With that, the two Honorable Supremes clashed, and a metallic clang rang out as their swords clashed in mid-air. The battle scene was truly a sight to behold as the magnificence of its sword qi soon swept across the rest of the venue.
The battle of the Honorable Supremes created waves of energy so terrifying that even the void began to quiver, the ground was torn apart, and the houses and buildings surrounding the place crumbled and collapsed over one another!
“Chu Kuangren, give me the Sword Soul!”
Sword Hoarder lunged towards Chu Kuangren. The pitch-black sword that was held in his palm exuded gushes of ferocious energy that looked extremely appalling.
Honorable Swordsman of Steel had also joined in the attack. His sword might have looked like any other ordinary steel sword, but when it was swung, it looked extremely terrifying. Every move he made with the sword had an overwhelming ferocity that left the void shuddering.
“Don’t you dare hurt the Bachelor Sage of our Sect!”
The two Daoist Protectors, Honorable Qing Lan and Old Lady Meng were just about to stop the incoming attack. However, at that moment, Chu Kuangren had already leaped one step ahead of them.
“My two respected elders, allow me to deal with this myself.” Chu Kuangren stepped forward with his great three Daoist Physique Transformations circling around him. The Battle Monarch’s Domain was about to be unleashed!
With a swing of his sword, a petrifying purple-colored sword ray which contained an unstoppable Daoist Rhyme was released, crashing onto the two Honorables’ bodies.
Both Honorables were forced back in just one move!
Old Lady Meng and Honorable Qing Lan exchanged a glance. They were a little helpless. Since Chu Kuangren was already so formidable, how else could they be of any help to him?
Their jobs as Daoist Protectors could not possibly be any easier.
“What a strong sword qi!”
“So this the Chu Kuangren whose fame was spread all across the world three years back? Such power is truly astounding.”
Sword Hoarder, on the other hand, could not concur with that statement since he had already experienced Chu Kuangren’s abilities first-hand prior to this.
Meanwhile, Honorable Swordsman of Steel, who was only battling Chu Kuangren for the very first time, seemed taken aback with the shock in his eyes. He could not help but tighten his grip on his sword.
“My two Honorables, do feel free to showcase any sort of ability you may have. Don’t disappoint me.” Chu Kuangren smirked as he levitated into the air, his raven hair floating and dancing with the wind. He looked absolutely majestic in that white robe of his as he angled his sword towards the two Honorable Swordsmen.
Battling against two Honorable Supremes alone was indeed a rare sight to behold. Several sword cultivators gulped as they found this scene absolutely ridiculous.
They were in awe not because they had never witnessed a sky-pride in action. As a matter of fact, the birth of numerous sky-prides had been witnessed in this Era of Great Battles, each one stronger than the other.
Nevertheless, no matter how powerful those sky-prides were, they could only withstand a few hits at most against Honorables. None were like Chu Kuangren, who could fight back not one but two Honorables at the same time with just one swing of his sword. The sheer magnitude of his powers was beyond imagination.
“Attack!” The energy on Sword Hoarder’s body erupted. Coupled with the Troop-Breaker Ominous Sword in his hand, he charged towards his opponent like a wicked ancient beast as his ferocious sword qi instantly locked Chu Kuangren into place!
“You sure look more powerful after changing to a new sword.” Chu Kuangren remarked. The Descendant Self Sword in his grip vibrated lightly, releasing an incredibly mystifying Sword-based Daoist Rhyme as he cast the Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique.
A purplish sword ray, which contained a mysterious Sword-based Daoist Rhyme that was miles superior to that of the Honorable Swordsman’s, beamed out. In an instant, the sword qi on the outermost layer of Sword Hoarder’s sword shattered before Chu Kuangren’s sword beam smashed onto Sword Hoarder’s Troop-Breaker Ominous Sword effortlessly.
With a loud metallic clang, the enormous force almost broke Sword Hoarder’s arm, and he was no longer able to hold onto his sword any longer. The Troop-Breaker was released from his grip.
Chu Kuangren’s figure turned into a beam of light. Nobody could see how he moved, but by the time he reappeared, he was already holding the Troop-Breaker in one hand, scrutinizing it silently.
“Hmm, this is not a bad sword, it’s even an Ominous Sword!” Chu Kuangren sounded a little surprised. This Troop-Breaker Ominous Sword may not be a sacred weapon, but its ferocious energy was stronger than one. So strong that any normal sacred weapon would not be able to match it.
“My Troop-Breaker! Give me back my sword!” Sword Hoarder looked devastated. He then activated his spiritual thoughts, attempting to summon his sword back into possession.
The Troop-Breaker could be seen vibrating in Chu Kuangren’s grip.
“Oh? This sword has been cultivated.” Chu Kuangren chuckled as he circulated his own spiritual thought to oppress the Troop-Breaker Ominous Sword!
As if it was able to sense the Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart’s energy through Chu Kuangren’s spiritual thought, the Troop-Breaker Ominous Sword which was vibrating earlier became still all of a sudden. The sword even withdrew its own ferocious energy, becoming extremely docile.
Chu Kuangren was slightly shocked by that. The Troop-Breaker Ominous Sword was incredibly powerful. He thought he would have required more strength to oppress and bend it under his control.
However, to his surprise, it was only that easy.
Not far away, Sword Hoarder kept trying to summon his Troop-Breaker Ominous Sword, but his efforts came to no avail as Troop-Breaker Ominous Sword did not show even the slightest response.
“What on earth is going on?!”
Sword Hoarder was so desperate that he almost lost his sanity.
He felt like he had been abandoned by the Troop-Breaker.
“Even this useless sword submits itself to Chu Kuangren’s Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart?!” Sword Hoarder’s whole body shook as he glared at Chu Kuangren with bloodshot eyes. He was so envious to the point that he was going berserk.
He harbored high hopes in the Troop-Breaker Ominous Sword. He had hoarded numerous swords, yet he only chose the Troop-Breaker to refine. He had spent countless days and nights fostering the Ominous Sword, caring for it like it was his lover.
Yet now, having just only met Chu Kuangren, the Troop-Breaker was already attracted to him. It was as if it had forsaken the precious moments that they had shared together.
Swords might not have a heart, but humans like him do!
At the sight of that, how could Sword Hoarder not be heartbroken and mad?!
The rest of the sword cultivators who stood by could not help but threw sympathetic glances at Sword Hoarder when they saw how he was going nuts. At the same time, they were in awe at Chu Kuangren’s Physique.
“It is true what they say about the Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart!”
“This Physique is really too overpowering for a sword cultivator, but to the rest of the sword cultivators facing it, it would be a huge threat.”
“That’s right.”
All the sword cultivators at the scene silently swore to themselves that if they were to encounter Chu Kuangren again, the first thing they must do is to hide their own swords from his line of sight.
Otherwise, it would be too late to even cry for mercy once they lose their sword
Chu Kuangren looked at Sword Hoarder and smirked. “You’re being too generous, dear fellow. You’ve just gifted me a sword case and a dozen or more famed swords a few days ago, and now you’re presenting me yet another sword with ominous capabilities.”
At this, Sword Hoarder could not hold himself back any longer. Sword qi was coursing furiously through his entire body and holding up a fist in place of a sword, he was about to throw himself at Chu Kuangren to finish him off.
Right at that moment, a terrifying energy burst came from behind Sword Hoarder.
“Sword Hoarder, step aside!”
Honorable Swordsman of Steel let out a battle cry.
He swung his steel sword high up in the air, erupting a majestic Daoist Rhyme and spiritual power which formed into a giant silhouette of sword shadow.
With a swing of his sword, the hills and valleys shuddered. The void felt like it was almost torn apart with sheer force. Its terrifying vital force locked down on Chu Kuangren, leaving him no room for escape!
