Chapter 655: Murong Xuan’s Wedding, Battling Jian Feng in the Void

At the void, the white-robed man stared at Chu Kuangren and said in a composed manner.

Chu Kuangren, on the other hand, stared into his eyes and placed that sword mold at one side. “We appreciate the Sword Tribe’s gift. I thank you on behalf of Murong Xuan. Since you’re here, why don’t you take a seat?”

“Since you don’t mind, I shall do that.”

The white-robed middle-aged man said.

His figure flashed, and he sat down on one of the seats.

The cultivators around him automatically shifted aside for him. From the looks of it, it seemed like this man might be an Emperor too!

The crowd knew they did not qualify to share a seat with an Emperor.

Hence, Jian Feng got a table all to himself.

Chu Kuangren could not care less about him too.

After all, the wedding ceremony was about to begin.

“Now, let’s welcome the bride and the groom!”

Elder Ruyan announced out loud.

A prosperous light suddenly filled the horizon, and two figures could be seen descending from the clouds. The male looked handsome, while the female looked stunning. Both of them were wearing red, and one could say that they were a match made in heaven.

They landed on the red carpet and then walked toward Longevity Hall.

Wherever they passed, prosperous light and cloud qi coursed under their feet.

The cultivators around them quickly rose and sent them their congratulations.

“Congratulations. Congratulations to you.”

“Congratulations Emperor for your marriage. I wish you both a happy and fulfilling life.”

Murong Xuan and Yang Xiyun had a red band of cloth bound between them as they slowly walked up to Chu Kuangren. Only then did they turn to face each other.

Chu Kuangren was heard letting out a couple of light coughs, as he said in a serious manner, “Murong Xuan, do you take Yang Xiyun as your wedded wife to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do you part?”

Murong Xuan nodded firmly. “I do.”

“Yang Xiyun, do you take Murong Xuan as your wedded husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do you part?”

Yang Xiyun’s face blushed slightly as she looked at Murong Xuan across her. She, too, nodded. “I do.”

“Very well, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now exchange your rings.” Chu Kuangren smiled delightedly.

Murong Xuan and Yang Xiyun took out their rings and put them on each other’s finger.

As if the Heavenly Dao had sensed their union, golden, prosperous clouds and mystical Daoist Rhymes instantly filled the skies, witnessing the new Emperor’s marriage.

“Rejoice!”

Thunderous claps were heard from below the stage.

All the orthodoxies cheered at the newlyweds.

With that, Murong Xuan and Yang Xiyun were officially wed as Daoist companions under Chu Kuangren’s witness. They vowed to live by each other for the rest of their lives and till death do they part.

The feast continued.

Murong Xuan and Yang Xiyun were busy entertaining their guests.

Meanwhile, in another corner.

Chu Kuangren left the venue early and came to the top of a mountain. Here, Sword Tribe’s Jian Feng had already been waiting for him long ago.

“Brother, are you not going to have a few more drinks down there?”

“I’m not a fan of crowds.”

Jian Feng replied nonchalantly. An incredibly powerful Emperor Aura was emitted from his body, locking down onto Chu Kuangren. “I came here to meet you today with only one purpose in my mind. I want to see what you’re capable of.”

“Seems like the Sword Tribe always finds a way back to me.”

Chu Kuangren replied.

After defeating the Sword Daoist and their Sovereign, he now had to face the Sword Tribe’s Emperor.

Their successive appearance made him quite annoyed.

“Don’t worry. After our battle today, all the bad blood between you and Sword Tribe will be annulled, and we will have nothing to do with each other ever again.”

“I sincerely hope you keep your words. Make your move then.”

Swish!

The Dao patterns on Jian Feng’s body gushed toward Chu Kuangren frenziedly. That was the purest of Dao patterns, one without Emperor qi.

“Oh, you’re looking for a spar?”

Chu Kuangren responded.

Similarly, Dao patterns emerged on his body.

When the two types of Dao patterns clashed in the void, a horrific energy wave blasted and rumbled the void.

Gradually, Jian Feng’s Dao was suppressed by Chu Kuangren.

“In terms of cultivation realm, you have the upper hand against me.”

“But in terms of Dao, you are a far cry from my level!”

Chu Kuangren said to him.

He had attained the Epic Dao, one very close to Prominent Dao.

Such a Dao was extremely rare in this world. Even though Jian Feng’s cultivation realm was above his, the former could still never beat Chu Kuangren in Dao.

“Hmph.”

Jian Feng scoffed, and a sword ray erupted from his body. Among that, Emperor qi with Dao patterns interweaved within surged out.

He finally made his move.

Seeing that, Chu Kuangren retaliated with a strike of his sword too.

With a bang, the two sword qi collided, and the space in the void fluctuated intensely. The whole Black Heaven Sect could feel the magnitude of that clash.

Faraway, the guests were all startled by this sudden movement.

“What a dreadful energy. What the hell is going on?”

“Are there Emperors battling nearby?”

Having noticed the absence of Chu Kuangren and Jian Feng, some people already had a rough guess on what was happening outside.

Murong Xuan smiled at the guests and assured them, “My fellow guests, enjoy your meals. It’s just a minor hiccup. I’m sure Sect Leader will sort it out in no time.”

…

The collision of a sword qi ripped a rift open in the void.

Chu Kuangren said to his opponent, “Today is a joyous day for Black Heaven Sect, and I wish not to spoil the fun for my guests. You and I shall resume our battle inside the void!”

As soon as he finished speaking, a pitch-black crack appeared in the space in front of them.

His figure flashed and vanished from where he was.

Jian Feng followed suit and chased after him.

Within the misty void, the air particles surged, each mixed with a strong spatial force.

The spatial force vaguely reflected the appearance of the real world.

The scenes were such as nature, or the bustling streets.

In here was the void, where the space between reality and nothingness lay. Cultivators with not enough cultivation would never be able to reach this space.

Inside the void, two figures appeared in a flash.

Chu Kuangren and Jian Feng stood facing each other in mid-air.

“If we fight here, we won’t affect reality too much if we keep our powers down,” Chu Kuangren remarked casually.

“Come at me then!”

The Emperor’s Aura on Jian Feng’s body erupted without any restriction!

He was a Rank Three Initial Emperor Realm!

Chu Kuangren checked out his opponent, Jian Feng’s strength with his Eye of Revelation activated. The latter was in the same cultivation realm as Qin Yu whom he had met last time.

The difference was that Qin Yu’s Dao had an ordinary Dao and an ordinary Emperor’s Core.

Meanwhile, Jian Feng had attained Flawed Dao and Middle-grade Emperor’s Core!

Their respective Daos and Emperor’s Cores were miles apart. Despite being in the same cultivation realm, the combat strength that they both could unleash was starkly different!

Jian Feng also has a longsword in his hands, which was an Emperor Weapon.

With Emperor qi injected into that Emperor Weapon, he swung it out, and Daoist patterns interweaved into a huge net, fully encasing Chu Kuangren within.

However, Chu Kuangren did not show any sign of weakness either as he drew out the Descendant Self in his hand.

Dazzling sword rays containing his Invincible Technique burst out. With a deafening boom, the sword qi tore the huge net open with brute force.

Then, the sword ray continued its course toward Jian Feng with frightening momentum, which ended up blasting him several kilometers out from his spot.

He stared at Chu Kuangren with utter disbelief. “This is… Esoteric Art! I can’t believe you’ve mastered Esoteric Techniques too!”

He could not believe his own eyes.

Those who could self-create Esoteric Arts were those who had been in the Emperor Realm for ages and had gained complete clarity and apprehension of their own Daos.

However, Chu Kuangren had just stepped into the Emperor Realm not long ago! How did he manage to master the Esoteric Art, which most Emperors could not even wrap their heads around yet?

“You’re surprised by that?”

“What about this then?”

As Chu Kuangren thrust his sword finger forward, the Emperor’s Core inside his body ignited again. His might escalated by a whole tier this time, and it shocked Jian Feng to the very core.

“This Emperor’s Core…”
