Chapter 317: Nine Deaths Blazing Blood Art, Synchronous Overworld Anarchy, I Won’t Mess With This Crazy b.a.s.t.a.r.d Even If It Kills Me
Spat…
Chu Kuangren could not help but cough out a mouthful of blood.
The impact from the Eight Celestial Demonic Chords and the Great Sage’s collision had dealt him a blow, so getting injured was unavoidable.
At least half of his internal organs were damaged just within that instant. However, that minor injury was completely healed by the Immortal Body when he was done coughing up blood earlier, hence he did not panic at all.
However, it did not seem that way to the others.
“Chu Kuangren, this is already an extremely remarkable feat that you’ve achieved for having come this far, so you can stop now,” the First Prefect said indifferently.
In fact, he did think of getting rid of Chu Kuangren once and for all.
However, he gave up that idea after some thought.
It was not because he was afraid of Chu Kuangren.
He was just not sure that he could kill Chu Kuangren!
He was astonished by the strength of that young man before him. He even felt that he would not be able to stop his young opponent, should he decide to leave their battle.
“How can I possibly pull back?”
“Don’t you value your life anymore, Chu Kuangren? Is it worth it to go this far just because of a few disciples?”
The First Prefect could not comprehend the reason for Chu Kuangren’s persistence.
“Huh, what nonsense are you spouting here? Are you saying that you can kill me then? There are still two more movements left in the Eight Celestial Demonic Chords, would you dare listen to them?”
“Chu Kuangren, blessed are the hearts that can bend, since they never shall be broken! ”
“I’ll ask once more, would you dare?”
Chu Kuangren glanced at his opponent calmly.
The First Prefect was so enraged that he was speechless. He felt he was talking to a brick wall. Why would this person before him not listen to reason?
“After you!”
The First Prefect took a deep breath and said.
Chu Kuangren’s fingertips glided over the guqin strings. Although the Eight Celestial Demonic Chords had a total of eight movements, he could only play the first six due to his current cultivation level.
The final two movements were just too difficult.
Then again, he truly had no idea how to do so a few days ago.
However, things were different now.
“Nine Deaths Blazing Blood Art, awaken!”
A terrifying wave of energy erupted from Chu Kuangren’s body and bursts of blood-colored flames emerged from the surface of his body.
The flames were alight with an extremely vigorous life force qi. As the flames continued to burn, Chu Kuangren’s aura continued to increase in strength.
Some of the Sages became uncertain when they saw the blood-colored flames. “C-can this possibly be… ”
“The Nine Deaths Blazing Blood Art!”
Through gritted teeth, a Sage muttered in a trembling tone while looking at Chu Kuangren with great disbelief in his eyes.
The Nine Deaths Blazing Blood Art!
When the Sages heard that name, they were so frightened that their face turned pale. That technique was just too well-known among the Sages.
There was an incident in the past where an ordinary Sage brutally killed a Great Sage with that technique recorded in the ancient archives.
However, they were even more aware of the price to pay for using such a technique.
“Setting one’s blood essence alight in return for an increase in cultivation level, this is undoubtedly a suicidal offensive technique. No matter how powerful this technique can make one, none would be sane enough to dare use such a technique!”
“That guy has gone mad…”
“Chu Kuangren, you f*cking crazy b*st*rd!”
Several Sages could not help but exclaim with horror.
An uncontrollable fear crept up their hearts.
None of them had expected Chu Kuangren to do something that crazy, all for the sake of seeking justice.
To think that he would resort to using a technique such as the Nine Deaths Blazing Blood Art.
If they had known that he would use it in the first place, none of the Sages would have dared to mess with him even if it killed them. Would that guy set aflame his lifeforce and drag everyone to their deaths in the end? None of the Sages dared to find out.
Most importantly, Chu Kuangren possessed the strength and capability to do so!
He could already suppress all six Sages single-handedly before even using the Nine Deaths Blazing Blood Art. If he were to use that technique, he could easily kill them, even if a Great Sage was around to stop him.
The First Prefect too was dumbfounded by what he saw.
‘Do you really need to go this far just because of a few disciples?’
‘Don’t you care about your life anymore?’
‘You crazy b*st*rd!’
‘This guy is undoubtedly a crazy b*st*rd through and through!’
“Have you prepared yourself, City Lord?”
Chu Kuangren uttered.
There was a trace of pain on his brows.
It was clear that the act of setting one’s blood essence aflame was definitely not a pleasant thing to do. The pain would be so intense that it could make an ordinary person wail and shriek.
Although Chu Kuangren had the Immortal Body and would instantly recover the blood essence that was ignited in a seemingly endless process, the pain was still there.
“Chu Kuangren, what’s the point for you to go this far?”
“There’s no need for further chatter.”
Chu Kuangren’s fingers strummed on the guqin strings.
The rapidly increasing spiritual power immediately burst out from within him. Before the guqin music rang out, the Daoist Rhyme from the Eight Celestial Demonic Chords had already swept out in all directions.
Upon noticing that extraordinary surge of Daoist Rhyme, a never-before-seen sternness appeared on the First Prefect’s face. As his Great Sage spiritual power and Daoist Rhyme emanated, he even took out a dark golden iron staff that had Daoist runes engraved all over it.
That was the First Prefect’s weapon.
He barely used weapons in combat since he became a Great Sage.
Even a Seven-Step Sage would not threaten him enough to use weapons. However, facing Chu Kuangren’s incoming guqin music, he instinctively took out that iron staff despite still feeling slightly uneasy about what was to come.
“Seventh movement of the Eight Celestial Demonic Chords… Synchronous Overworld Anarchy!”
The guqin music abruptly exploded.
The waves of guqin music which carried a tremendous and overbearing Daoist Rhyme surged out.
At this moment, a storm rolled in, blocking the light from the sun and moon!
Thunder rumbled in the sky, and the whole area trembled violently!
It was as if the heavens and earth were accompanying the tune of that guqin music!
Synchronous Overworld Anarchy!
Waves upon waves of horrifying guqin music swept everywhere, which sent the Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang, Third Prefect, and others flying.
Just the residual sound waves from the guqin music were enough to critically injure all of them. They all stared at Chu Kuangren, who had the guqin in his laps, in horror!
“He can play such a terrifying level of guqin music!”
“What a frightening level of guqin Dao!”
Synchronous Overworld Anarchy.
Both the heavens and earth were accompanying that guqin music!
One after another, the horrifying waves of guqin music landed on the First Prefect, and his face suddenly turned pale.
He then let out a scream, gathering his spiritual energy, as he frantically waved the iron staff in the air. Bursts of staff energy erupted, crashed into the surroundings, and attacked Chu Kuangren’s guqin music.
The collision between the two peerless energies affected everything within hundreds of meters from them. Every living being that was. .h.i.t by this impact could not help but tremble with fear and shock.
Boom, boom, boom!
The guqin music and staff energy continued to intertwin like crazy.
In the end, Chu Kuangren coughed up blood once more while the First Prefect was blasted away by the guqin music and brutally crashed into a nearby mountain.
When he emerged again, his hair was messed up and his face was pale. There were streaks of blood trickling from the corner of his mouth too, which made him look like he had aged.
“You’re indeed a Great Sage for being able to take the attack of my seventh movement!”
“Then have a taste of my final movement, the Grand…”
Before Chu Kuangren could finish his sentence, the First Prefect suddenly interrupted him loudly. “Chu Kuangren, I agree to your conditions!”
The First Prefect could not hold out any longer.
Having been critically injured by the seventh movement of the Eight Celestial Demonic Chords, he did not dare imagine that if Chu Kuangren were to play the final movement, would he still be alive then?
Everything else now seemed irrelevant compared to his life.
‘What’s the big deal about a public apology?’
‘Will it trouble him to agree to that?’
From this day onwards, he would never mess with that lunatic again, even if it would kill him. After all, his opponent did not care about his life at all, and neither would he hesitate to use a technique like the Nine Deaths Blazing Blood Art so casually.
“Oh, if you said early, we wouldn’t have gone through all this trouble then.”
Chu Kuangren was stunned for a moment, but he eventually let out a faint smile. With the Nine Deaths Blazing Blood Art was deactivated, the blood-colored flames gradually disappeared from his body.
