Chapter 480: Nirvana Process Complete, The Hiding Place Of Boundary Emperors
Bai Liyin was just about to flee when his speed became incredibly slow due to the effects of Chu Kuangren’s Spatial Cessation Rune.
“What!” Bai Liyin’s expression changed as he felt that his surroundings had seemingly turned into a pool of mud. If he was not a Boundary Emperor, he would have been immobilized in midair.
However, even if he could move, his speed was no different than a snail from Chu Kuangren’s perspective.
“Why don’t you stay for a while longer?” Chu Kuangren sneered as the Descendant Self Sword immediately struck out, and a surge of vast Sword-based Daoist Rhyme enveloped Bai Liyin.
Along with strong spiritual power, the chilling Daoist Rhyme mercilessly tore through his body, causing a high and mighty Boundary Emperor like Bai Liyin to scream in pain. He desperately channeled his spiritual power to cover his body with a layer of flame current, hoping that it would help prevent the sword qi from entering his body.
However, the sword qi’s might was far beyond his expectations, and it rendered his efforts futile.
This sword qi was infused with the Heavenly Punishment Daoist Rhyme!
“This is bad. If this continues, I might die here!”
“I have just awakened not too long ago. I cannot die here like that! This is impossible!!”
A look of determination flashed in Bai Liyin’s eyes before his body suddenly exploded. A mist of blood filled the air like a bewitching flower that had bloomed, but what followed were bursts of unimaginably horrifying flame currents!
The expressions of everyone at the scene changed when they saw the burst of flame currents. That energy was lethal even to a Sage Ruler!
“This is no good. We need to step back.”
“A Boundary Emperor was forced to self-destruct?!”
“That’s too horrifying.”
Everyone hurriedly moved back as the flame currents crashed towards them.
However, they merely faced the remaining shockwaves of that explosion. The one who was within Bai Liyin’s radius of self-destruction was Chu Kuangren.
“Self-destruct to break the Spatial Cessation Rune’s restriction? He’s got guts all right. But if he thinks that’s all it takes to escape from me, then I’m afraid he’s greatly mistaken.”
Chu Kuangren uttered indifferently. After that, he lifted his arm to gather countless runes to form an indestructible runic barrier before him, blocking all of the flame currents.
It was then he saw a ray of light darting out from the flame currents towards the distance.
That was Bai Liyin’s spiritual body.
Chu Kuangren’s spiritual thoughts surged out, and he wanted to use the Spatial Conveyor Skill to catch up to his opponent. However, he suddenly recalled something and purposely slowed down the speed of his spiritual thoughts. “Now, let’s see where you can possibly run to.”
He remembered that someone had appeared and interfered with him when he attempted to kill Boundary Emperor Wuyue. Could there be a connection between these Boundary Emperors?
He could use this time to test this theory on Bai Liyin right now.
After all, Bai Liyin could never escape from him anyway.
Just when Chu Kuangren’s spiritual thoughts were chasing Bai Liyin, the Godly Phoenix suddenly opened her eyes at the volcano entrance. Its body, which was initially scorched black, was set alight with a golden flame once again, and the Godly Phoenix’s aura rapidly increased.
“It’s alive. The Godly Phoenix is alive!”
“The Godly Phoenix isn’t dead!”
“This is… Nirvana! The legends are true. The Godly Phoenix can really be reborn through Nirvana! And any Godly Phoenix that has rebirthed through Nirvana will become even stronger!”
The onlooking cultivators were extremely shocked.
With a long roar, the Godly Phoenix stood up and soared into the air, shedding her scorched skin and feathers. As a large amount of fire-based energy entered her body, causing the golden flame of Nirvana to burn even brighter, her body began to modify.
At that moment, every flying creature in the Firmament Star looked towards the direction of the Godly Phoenix and let out a loud cry as well. It was as if they were rejoicing.
All the world’s birds rejoiced and chirped!
Surges upon surges of Daoist Rhyme reverberated through the realm as if the heavens and earth itself were celebrating the divine beast’s successful ascension.
“The Nirvana process is complete.”
Chu Kuangren chuckled. Meanwhile, his spiritual thoughts had also picked up on Bai Liyin’s last visited location.
“Let’s go, Lil Red. We’re going to find and kill someone!”
Chu Kuangren raised his arms and enshrouded both himself and the Godly Phoenix with an incredibly mysterious spatial energy. Since the Godly Phoenix Lil Red had complete trust in Chu Kuangren, she had no resistance to the sudden appearance of spatial energy.
In an instant, both the man and Godly Phoenix disappeared before everyone’s eyes.
…
Inside a cave in the Nether Abyss.
A gray-bearded elderly man in long black robes and sunken eye sockets was resting peacefully.
Suddenly, his eyelids twitched as he opened his eyes and uttered in surprise, “For some reason, I’ve been feeling restless recently, especially after seeing Chu Kuangren.”
A sullen look flashed in that elderly man’s eyes when he thought of Chu Kuangren.
He swore that Chu Kuangren was the most arrogant and devious person he had ever seen. The latter even dared to kill a Nether Abyss’s Boundary Emperor before his eyes.
However, he had to admit that Chu Kuangren was the most remarkable cultivator he had ever seen, and there was none other like him!
“In this Era of Great Battles, there’s a high chance that he can ascend to an Emperor given how strong he is now. If there’s no need, it’s best not to get into any conflicts with that guy.”
The elderly man muttered frustratingly.
“Valley Lord, please save me!”
At that moment, a panicking cry for help suddenly rang out from afar.
The whole Nether Abyss Valley had heard it.
The expression of the elderly man, who was the Nether Abyss Valley Lord, shifted. “That’s Bai Liyin’s voice. What’s going on with him?”
With only his spiritual body left, Bai Liyin rushed into the Nether Abyss Valley shouting for help. His voice startled all the Boundary Emperors who were either in deep slumber or had just awakened in the Nether Abyss Valley. Hence, all of them released their spiritual thoughts to find out what was going on.
Everyone was incredibly shocked by what they saw.
“Isn’t this Bai Liyin? Why is he only left with a spiritual body?”
“Seeing that he’s in such a panic, who is it that has forced him to this point? Did the Boundary Emperors from the other Forbidden Areas do this?”
“Everyone has just awakened, so who could do something like this to Bai Liyin that fast?”
Just when everyone was startled by what happened, the fabric of space above the Nether Abyss Valley began to twist and out walked two figures.
An extremely domineering aura immediately descended upon everyone!
The two of them were Chu Kuangren and the Godly Phoenix, who had chased after Bai Liyin’s trail until they arrived at this location.
The might of Heavenly Punishment and the divine beast swept across the whole Nether Abyss Valley, shocking all the Boundary Emperors in hiding.
“It’s a divine beast!”
“Not only that, but the young man beside it is the Supreme Sage who has recently caused a great stir in the outside world. I can’t believe that a person like him has come to the Nether Abyss Valley. Seeing Bai Liyin so flustered, it most probably has something to do with this person.”
“It seems he is the only person in the outside world who is strong enough to do this.”
Inside the cave, the Nether Abyss Valley Lord almost spewed blood in shock. He was just thinking about not provoking Chu Kuangren if possible, and here Bai Liyin was, leading that person to their Nether Abyss Valley. How great of him!
Besides, Chu Kuangren did not look… as well!
As one of the Forbidden Area’s masters, the Nether Abyss Valley Lord could not stand idly by as Bai Liyin, one of his men from the Nether Abyss was in trouble. Hence, he sighed helplessly and disappeared from his spot.
Above the Nether Abyss Valley, Chu Kuangren used his spiritual thoughts to scan through the whole area. He noticed there were quite a number of seals and restrictions placed there. It was as if they were there to hide the existence of many powerful beings and stop his spiritual thoughts from looking further.
“It seems that the Nether Abyss Valley, one of the ten Forbidden Areas, is a hiding place for a group of Boundary Emperors. Interesting…” Chu Kuangren let out a slight grin.
