1903 The Ten Calamities Are Dead, Nine Stars s.h.i.+ne, Primordial Confrontation
Inside the Mist Tribe’s formation, Chu Kuangren raised his hand to channel the destructive energy of the Chaos Green Lotus.
One simple wave of energy fluctuation made countless Mist Tribes caught within shudder in fear. Even Calamity Void was afraid.
“His power surpa.s.ses even the Nine Kings. I can’t believe Chu Kuangren is so strong now!”
Calamity Void knew he would be dead soon, so he used a certain secret technique to deliver the information back to the Central Heaven Universe.
“Chu Kuangren, I might die here today, but the Central Heaven Universe will eventually annex the Pan Gu Universe. You cannot stop it! My Lord, Demon Feng, will come after you,” Calamity Void said loudly.
Chu Kuangren barely reacted to his words. Instead, he raised his hand at Calamity Void and unleashed the full power of the Chaos Green Lotus’ destructive energy in the form of green halos.
The green halos left trail after trail of destruction in their wake.
All the Mist Tribe members were killed.
Calamity Void, too, was killed on the spot.
The formation that was used to trap Chu Kuangren started to shake as the runes were shattered. Soon, the formation collapsed under the repeated blast of the green halo.
“From this moment onwards, the Ten Calamities will cease to exist,” Chu Kuangren said indifferently.
Then, he thought of the Mist Tribe. The strange tribe was unlike the invaders from the Central Heaven Universe as they were originally from the ancient era, the remains of a forgotten time.
They had been in hiding in Pan Gu Universe for eons, like a viper waiting for its chance to strike. No one knew when or how they would strike.
“We have the Central Heaven Universe on the outside and the Mist Tribe on the inside sandwiching us.”
It was not that he did not want to deal with the Mist Tribe, but being able to hide for so many years without exposing themselves stated how good they were at hiding.
Therefore, he had to thread each step carefully.
“Other than the Mist Tribe, things are starting to get interesting at the Void Battlefield. That will be the true battlefield for the two universes,” Chu Kuangren mumbled to himself.
Compared to the Mist Tribe, the Central Heaven Universe remained the real threat.
Then, he brought Elder Ruyan and the others back to the Immortal World before summoning Jue Wushen to his side.
“Wushen, I have an important task to a.s.sign to you.”
“What is it, my King?”
“I want you to form a team for me to use in the future. I have a list of candidates here, and I need you to gather them for me,” Chu Kuangren said as he gave Jue Wushen the jade scroll.
Jue Wushen nodded when he received the jade scroll. “I understand, my King.”
A while later, on a certain mountain peak in the Immortal World, several figures gathered, but they all hid behind the Immortal Sparks. Jue Wushen was the only one who showed himself. They had gathered to wait for someone.
At that moment, clouds rumbled in the sky, and Daoist chimes sounded. Golden lotus, dragons, and phoenixes appeared in the void. They were all part of an auspicious phenomenon.
From there, a figure slowly emerged and arrived at the mountain peak.
The figure in white looked charming, and it was Chu Kuangren.
All the figures hiding in Immortal Sparks bowed at him when he arrived.
“Please, at ease. I believe Wushen has told you why all of you are gathered here. I am grateful for your presence.”
“Immortal King, we’re honored you chose us,” said a woman’s voice.
“My King, now that they’re all here, they will officially be your personal team and will only answer to you. I wonder if you’re going to name them?”
“I’ve thought about it.”
Chu Kuangren raised his hand and unveiled nine tokens.
The tokens flew out and were distributed among Jue Wushen and the others.
“Black Heaven… Nine Stars!” Jue Wushen uttered the words on the token when he looked at it.
“From today onward, all of you will be the Black Heaven Nine Stars! You’re to head to the Void Battlefield and protect the nine planets that belonged to the Pan Gu Universe,” Chu Kuangren said.
Then, he supplied the Nine Stars with a load of resources so that they could cultivate for the final battle.
Their future would be crucial to him as well.
…
Back at the Central Heaven Universe, two voices spoke in the void.
“The Ten Calamities and the Mist Tribe have failed,” said Demon Feng in his withered voice.
Upon hearing Demon Feng, Emperor Feng went silent for a moment. Then, his youthful voice scoffed and said, “They’re useless.”
“Chu Kuangren is unimaginably powerful. Not even an Embodier is his match. It seems like we have underestimated him.”
“Is he already an Embodier? That’s quick.”
“No, he’s not, but he used some kind of power that is stronger than the common Embodier. Even the Mist Tribe Embodier was no match for him. It seems like we’ll have to rely on the Heavenly Sword to defeat Chu Kuangren.
“The Heavenly Sword is uncontrollable.”
“He’s uncontrollable, but he and Chu Kuangren are two of the strongest Prodigies in both our universes. They ought to brawl it out one day.”
“Aside from Chu Kuangren, what about Wu Han? He’s still our biggest hindrance. When are we going to make a move on him?”
“Now!”
Cosmic thunderbolts sparked in s.p.a.ce as the cosmic storm wreaked havoc everywhere. Millions of planets exploded in an instant like a grand explosion that lit up the universe.
…
It was a busy day in Pan Gu Universe.
In front of the universe-connecting portal stood one person who single-handedly protected the Pan Gu Universe from invasion.
He was Wu Han, the strongest Celestial Demon and also the one and only Primordial of Pan Gu Universe.
“Hmm?”
Wu Han suddenly sensed something. He looked at the universe-connecting portal and reacted with an odd look.
“It’s here.”
Kakroom!
As the universe-connecting portal trembled, the Void Battlefield emanated an earth-shattering aura that somehow shook even the universe.
Two figures emerged from the void.
One of them had black hair and was in white robes. His eyes had nothing but Chaos, and they contained destructive energy waves that would terrify people.
The other one was a white-haired old man with Primordial qi intertwining around him that manifested into countless demonic shadows.
The demonic shadows knelt and wors.h.i.+ped him as if he was the lord of all demons.
“Shen Tian, Demon Feng, it’s been a while,” Wu Han said without the slightest hostility. It felt like he was greeting an old friend he had not seen for a long time.
“Yeah, it’s been too long,” the man with black hair answered, seemingly reminiscing. “I remember that battle like it was yesterday.”
Wu Han chuckled. “Me, too. A Primordial running away like a dog is a scene that you don’t see every day.”
His words made the white-haired old man narrow his eyes. Demon Feng said, “It has been many years, but you haven’t changed at all.”
“It’s not only me who hasn’t changed…”
Wu Han raised his hand, and Celestial Demon qi overflowed. The qi intertwined and formed a pitch-black halberd in the void. Terrifying Chaos vital force was swirling around it, and the energy fluctuation it released could easily dominate the realm.
“My Sky Dominion Halberd remains just as sharp.”
Wu Han wielded the Sky Dominion Halberd, with his Celestial Demon qi intertwining around its blade. His Primordial energy that had fused with multiple Daos overflowed, releasing a terrifying pressure into the area.
Even Demon Feng and Shen Tian were forced to take him seriously.
“Wu Han, do you really think we would come to you unprepared?” Shen Tian raised his hand.
His Primordial energy swirled and transformed into a ma.s.sive black bell.
Demon Feng grunted. The countless demonic images around him gathered and transformed into a b.l.o.o.d.y saber that contained millions of vile demons.
“In that case, show me how much you two have grown,” Wu Han said with a smile.
“Hahaha! As the strongest of the Celestial Demons, you should actually be concerned about me rather than the two of them!”
Suddenly, a loud cackle sounded.
A terrifying energy fluctuation came from the universe-connecting portal.
A blast of smoke and fire paved the path, and endless murderous qi swept forward.
An imposing figure emerged with a spear in his hand.
His arrival felt like death and war had been brought to Pan Gu Universe.
