Chapter 396: I Have One of Those As Well, Yuan Wudao’s Blood Dragon Claw

With the appearance of the Qian Imperial Palace, Xiao Lintian and the others took out their Jade Amulets. They were not surprised by the scene that had unfolded before them.

However, the other sky-prides were confused.

“Geez, these unknown lands have such a deep foundation and background; they could have known about the Qian Imperial Palace’s appearance long ago.”

One of the sage orthodoxy’s sky-pride sighed.

Compared to the empyrean walkers, they were not only lacking talent and resources but also short of generations of historical knowledge.

“Haha. Chu Kuangren, I’m sure you’re aware you need a Jade Amulet that the Qian Emperor left behind to enter the Qian Emperor Palace, right?”

Xiao Lintian said happily at that time. He had finally found something to show off to Chu Kuangren.

To him, Chu Kuangren was a sky-pride from the outside world, so he definitely would have no idea about anything regarding the Emperors, let alone the Jade Amulets.

Moreover, he definitely would not have a Jade Amulet with him right now.

Putting it simply, Chu Kuangren could never enter the Qian Imperial Palace!

Xiao Lintian was incredibly delighted upon thinking of this.

Not only him, but Ling Xiao, Xue Zheng, Li Fuping, and the other empyrean walkers were also relieved.

The pressure that Chu Kuangren had on them was just too immense.

They were not capable of competing with Chu Kuangren at all.

The fact that Chu Kuangren could not enter the Qian Imperial Palace was great news to them, as this meant that he could not compete with them for the Emperor’s Opportunity of Fortune. Now, they all stood a chance.

“Good thing he doesn’t have the Jade Amulet, otherwise…”

Ling Xiao was just speaking when he suddenly noticed Chu Kuangren fiddling with a shiny object from the corners of his eye.

From the looks of it, that seemed like a piece of the… Jade Amulet!

Xiao Lintian, Ling Xiao, and the others were stunned.

They stared speechlessly at the Jade Amulet in Chu Kuangren’s hand.

“How does he have a Jade Amulet?”

The hopeful empyrean walkers had now fallen back into a harsh bout of despair. Everyone looked at Chu Kuangren, helpless.

“How could this be? How did the final piece of Jade Amulet be in Chu Kuangren’s hands? Where and how did he even get it in the first place?”

“Why do things always have to turn out like this…”

After all, there were only a total of eight Jade Amulets.

Seven of the eight pieces were taken by Xiao Lintian and the others, but out of all the people in the world, why did the last piece have to fall into Chu Kuangren’s possession?!

This was just too much of a coincidence!

The other sky-prides looked at Xiao Lintian and the others pitifully.

“I bet they’re feeling very sh*tty right now.”

“Sigh, even I have started to wonder whether Chu Kuangren is the son of the Heavenly Dao. Why is everything always in his favor?”

“Is this the so-called child of destiny?”

“Being born in the same era as this person is very sad.”

The sky-prides shook their heads and lamented.

Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren looked at Xiao Lintian and smiled faintly. “Pardon me, what were you saying earlier? I think it’s something about needing a Jade Amulet to enter the Qian Imperial Palace, right? Well, what a coincidence. I happen to have one with me here.”

“Y-you…” Xiao Lintian was so mad that he almost spewed blood.

Buzz…

A horrifying fluctuation suddenly spread from the void.

A black beam of light that contained a deadly and eerie demonic qi was heading towards Feng Yaorao!

Taken by surprise, Feng Yaorao hurriedly channeled her spiritual power to resist the incoming attack. Despite that, she was still blasted away and heavily injured.

Her Jade Amulet slipped from her grasp as she fell backward. Immediately, a black figure swooped in and grabbed that Jade Amulet before it quickly dashed towards the Qian Imperial Palace.

That person was the Yuan Wudao of the Acheron Manor!

“D*mn you! Give me back my Jade Amulet!”

Feng Yaorao’s expression changed as she chased after him.

However, the injuries that she had gotten from Yuan Wudao were so heavy that she could not catch on to him. Just when she was starting to panic, a stream of light suddenly shot past her and darted towards Yuan Wudao. In the blink of an eye, the light had caught up to him.

Yuan Wudao was rushing towards the Qian Imperial Palace. He was only a few meters away from its entrance when he suddenly felt a terrifying pressure catching up from behind that sent chills all over him. Without another word, he quickly unleashed a palm attack behind him.

A surge of demonic qi gushed out like a wild torrent!

That attack was so powerful that it made the void rumble.

Even so, his attack was easily shattered by a white jade palm. That same hand immediately reached out, grabbed Yuan Wudao by the neck, and tossed him in the opposite direction from the Qian Imperial Palace, brutally slamming him into the ground.

An explosion erupted, and the ground smashed into a large crater. Numerous cracks began to spread outwards like a spiderweb.

Lying in that crater was Yuan Wudao, who was in a terrible mess.

He looked at Chu Kuangren in the air with horror.

It was Chu Kuangren who slammed him into the ground earlier.

His original plan was to snatch Feng Yaorao’s Jade Amulet and make a run towards the Qian Imperial Palace while Chu Kuangren was not paying attention. After he was inside, he would obtain the Emperor’s Opportunity of Fortune.

Unexpectedly, he had underestimated Chu Kuangren’s abilities.

Even if he took everyone by surprise, he was still caught by Chu Kuangren.

“Chu Kuangren, I didn’t come looking for you when you took my Jade Amulet. Are you going to stop me now that I’ve taken someone else’s?”

Yuan Wudao questioned out loud as his Daoist Rhyme surged and demonic qi circulated around his body. A bloody red mist was also seeping out from his bandaged arm, as if some terrifying being was trying to break free from its restraints.

“I don’t care whose Jade Amulet you plan to take, but didn’t the Acheron Manor’s Sage bring you my message?”

“What message?”

“It looks like you guys really didn’t take my words that seriously, huh? Forget about it. I’ll repeat them for you one more time. My message was… I’m taking your life no matter what, and no one can save you from me!!”

Chu Kuangren then raised his arm to gather the spiritual power from the surroundings and formed a huge majestic golden palm that radiated with Buddhist Light, which crashed down on Yuan Wudao!

A horrifying pressure struck Yuan Wudao. Under the majestic Buddhist Light, his demonic qi was continuously disintegrating.

That palm attack was more powerful compared to the last time he witnessed it at the Demonic Hoarder Forefather’s secret realm and in the School of White Lotus!

“He has gotten stronger in such a short time!”

“Godd*mn it, I have no choice but to use this.”

Yuan Wudao growled as the bandage around his left arm was suddenly burnt to ashes by a bloody red flame.

A terrifying demonic arm that was covered in red scales and had razor-sharp claws suddenly appeared before everyone.

After that, a horrifying and devilish surge of scarlet demonic qi emanated from it!

“The Acheron Manor’s Blood Dragon Claw!”

“Legend has it that the Blood Dragon Claw originated from a terrifying demonic beast in the underworld. After being slain by the Acheron Manor’s Forefather, its claws were preserved and refined into a top-tiered Boundary Emperor Weapon. However, no one has been able to use it because of its immensely evil nature. I can’t believe Yuan Wudao has managed to subdue and use it!”

Xiao Lintian, Ling Xiao, and the others were slightly shocked.

By then, Yuan Wudao’s Blood Dragon Claw had already collided with the golden palm attack. Horrifying bursts of energy exploded, and upon impact, the huge golden palm was destroyed!

“Chu Kuangren, behold the might of my Blood Dragon Claw!!”

After destroying the golden palm with one move, Yuan Wudao leaped into the air and attacked Chu Kuangren with his claws.

Chu Kuangren immediately unleashed his Human Mountain Stamp the moment he saw it coming!

As soon as he struck out his palm, his human mountain power clashed with the Blood Dragon Claw. The impact from the two energies did not affect Chu Kuangren, as he stood there unmoved. However, Yuan Wudao was blasted back several meters.

Chu Kuangren was a little shocked.

“So you can withstand my attack. It looks like that arm of yours has given you quite some strength.”

Chu Kuangren smiled playfully as he said with a slight interest.

“Go to hell, Chu Kuangren!”

Yuan Wudao roared and continued to attack his opponent. Upon a closer look, the veins on his Blood Dragon Claw had spread to his neck, and they were bulging. Even his left eye was riddled with blood, making him look inhumanly brutal.
