Chapter 392: The Sages Combine Forces, Stopping Chu Kuangren From Entering The Imperial Palace

Chu Kuangren levitated in the air in his wide-sleeved white robe and jet-black hair.

Everyone could not help but narrow their eyes when they saw him.

“Chu Kuangren has arrived.”

“D*mn it. He has come to join the fun at the Imperial Palace as well. If he goes in there, will other people stand a chance?”

“They might as well surrender.”

“No chance.”

The crowd whispered under their breaths.

Everyone saw Chu Kuangren as a sky-pride who was on a different level than the others. The rest of them stood no chance against him.

If he were to go into the Imperial Palace, he would surely get a clean sweep over everyone and everything!!

“This b*stard. We can’t let him in there. With his ability, this Emperor’s Opportunities of Fortune will most likely fall in his hands.”

The Sages of the unknown lands glanced at each other.

One of the Sages stood in front of Chu Kuangren and said with a smile, “I didn’t expect to see you here, Brother Chu.”

Chu Kuangren gave him a side-eye. “Step aside!”

That Sage did not have any intention to let him through. He merely smiled and said, “Brother Chu, you’re the head of an orthodoxy, a Sect Leader. I don’t think it’s appropriate for you to compete for the Opportunities of Fortune with your juniors.”

“My junior? Pfft, please. You’re an almighty Sage, but you don’t even think before you speak. If you do your math, I should be of the same seniority as the rest of them. My status is indeed higher than theirs, but we’re similar in age.”

Chu Kuangren snorted.

Never once did they think about him as their junior when they were battling him back then. Yet now that they were trying to stop him from entering the Imperial Palace, the thought suddenly came to their mind.

“Chu Kuangren, do you really want to go in?”

“Since the Opportunities of Fortune have presented itself, it’s there for the taking.”

Swoosh swoosh swoosh…

The Sages leaped forward one after another, blocking Chu Kuangren’s way.

It was clear by now that they did not want him to go into the Imperial Palace.

“Heh, you guys are so shameless that you don’t mind throwing away your dignity so quickly.” Chu Kuangren chuckled.

“No matter what, we’re not letting you into the Qian Imperial Palace!”

“Do you really think that you guys can stop me?”

Chu Kuangren said indifferently.

He leaped and surges of terrifying Daoist Rhymes swept across the whole place. With one hand lifted, majestic spiritual power amassed and a boundless Buddhist Light manifested.

A huge ancient Buddha appeared and struck out a palm technique!

He was using an Emperor Technique for his first move!

In the face of such a powerful blow, one of the Sages’ expressions changed. He threw out a palm attack in response too, but he was still blasted off his feet by this incoming palm attack.

“D*mn, why does it feel like this guy has gotten stronger again?!”

That Sage was a little shocked.

He had only received a palm attack from Chu Kuangren, yet he could feel his whole arm going numb. This power of his was truly quite astonishing.

“Don’t tell me this guy is already preparing for ascension??”

“I remember that his breakthrough to Honorable Supreme was not long ago. If he’s going to ascend so soon after that, then that’s a massive improvement.”

“It won’t be any good if he becomes a Sage.”

The Sages around them started to exchange whispers.

However, Chu Kuangren could not care less.

He scanned his eyes across Sages that were huddled up around him and activated his Eye of Revelation to see through the identities and cultivation levels of these people before him.

All of them were from the unknown lands.

Only they were brave enough to stop Chu Kuangren.

After all, Chu Kuangren was the biggest obstacle that stood between their orthodoxies and the Emperor’s Opportunity of Fortune!

“A kind suggestion, all of you should join hands.”

Chu Kuangren said nonchalantly with his hand pressed onto his sword handle.

These Sages glanced at each other.

“I reckon that none of you would be able to stop him. Why don’t we all work together and go against him? Your ego doesn’t really matter anymore at this point.”

Blackwillow Sage from Acheron Manor said.

Upon hearing what he said, the other Sages nodded too.

That was true. Even a Great Sage would not be able to hold off an opponent of Chu Kuangren’s level. So, if their goal was to stop him from entering the Imperial Palace, they had to work together to increase their chances of success.

“I can’t believe an old man like me would still have to join hands with a bunch of Sages to go against a junior.” One of the Sages smiled bitterly and lamented.

The rest of the people felt as helpless as he did, too.

This Qian Imperial Palace was prepared for the sky-prides to go in and compete with each other. That would have all made sense.

However, things were different for Chu Kuangren.

His combat strength was way too powerful and scary.

If he were to go in, the other sky-prides would not stand a chance. As such, these Sages had no choice but to join forces to stop this guy.

“Let’s go.”

Blackwillow Sage led the charge.

He slammed out a palm and his spiritual power surged into a black skull. Suddenly, an ominous, chilly presence pervaded the air.

“Finger of Despair!”

A Sage from the Sacred Palace of Death attacked as well.

His first strike was an Emperor Technique.

After that, the remainder of the Sages also joined in succession.

The Descendant Self Sword on Chu Kuangren’s waist unsheathed itself, and his Three Great Daoist Physiques were activated. Altogether, the sword qi, ferocious qi, battle intent, and the Transcendental Might erupted!

A dazzling sword ray tore through the sky.

Various energies and forces began to collide!

Instantly, the violent shockwaves from the terrifying energies spread outward.

Everyone was hit by the shockwave, including Chu Kuangren, who was blasted several hundred meters backward. Then, Chu Kuangren looked up into the sky.

An enormous Mountain River Seal was crashing down from the sky!

That seal contained an incredibly tremendous earth qi!

This was the Immovable Sect’s Emperor Technique, the Mountain River Seal!

“Crush him!”

High up in the sky, an old man yelled at the top of his lungs.

When Chu Kuangren saw that, he channeled the ferocious qi around his body to form a giant black avatar. Waves after waves of battle cry reverberated through the entire sky!

The Divine Ferocious Avatar smashed both its fists skyward.

The appalling ferocious qi soared outward like the tide, sending a quiver across the void!

With a loud bang, the Mountain River Seal was crushed!

The attacks from the rest of the Sages made their way to him as well.

Chu Kuangren controlled the Divine Ferocious Avatar and kept the two fists prancing in the air, striking bouts after bouts of fist energy in all four directions.

The space between them exploded as all types of Daoist Rhymes constantly collided with each other.

Unable to deflect the various Sages’ attack eventually, the Divine Ferocious Avatar crumbled abruptly, and Chu Kuangren was blasted back again.

However, Chu Kuangren’s figure turned into a stream of light and swooped in the direction of the Imperial Palace.

“Don’t even think about it!”

“Pfft, the only way you’re breaking free of our blockade is in your dreams.”

The few Sages scoffed at him and successfully blocked his way.

Chu Kuangren’s speed was quick, but there were quite a few Sages there who were good at speed as well, and their powers were not far off from his.

Boom, boom…

Sounds of explosions kept coming from the void.

Chu Kuangren continued to dash through the air as if trying to find an opening into the Imperial Palace.

Unfortunately, the unknown land Sages had set up a watertight defense, leaving Chu Kuangren no chance to pass through.

After an intense battle, Chu Kuangren still could not achieve a breakthrough.

“This is too hard. There are a dozen or so Sages here. About a handful of them are Great Sages, and the remaining of them are all close to the Great Sage level. It won’t be easy for Chu Kuangren to break through their barricade.”

“Exactly. Aside from a Sage Ruler, who else could break through that, really?”

“A dozen or so Sages working together to fight a person below the Sage level. This is a rare sight to behold. Chu Kuangren is really amazing.”

“It doesn’t seem like Chu Kuangren will get the Opportunity of Fortune from the Qian Imperial Palace this time. What a shame. If he could make it inside the Imperial Palace, not even the sky-prides or empyrean walkers from the unknown lands would stand a chance.”

The battle was ongoing in the sky. Chu Kuangren was flanked by over a dozen Sages, making it extremely difficult for him to break free and enter the Imperial Palace

“Chu Kuangren, not even you can break through the barricade that we have formed. You’re not going to get into the Qian Imperial Palace. Just give up already!”

One of the Sages from Ethereal Rapture laughed, feeling quite satisfied.
