Chapter 42: Another Use for the Primordial Purple Haze, Mad Levelling
“Mother!”
“It’s Mother, she’s come out of meditation as well.”
Ye Baifeng and his two brothers had a delighted look on their faces.
In the midst of that, Chu Kuangren rushed to Lan Yu instead. He moved in front of her to protect her, while also glaring at the beautiful lady. Multiple lines of great runes swirled within his eyes.
“Li Ruolan, wife of the White Cloud’s Honorable Swordsman; cultivation level, Honorable Realm – final stage; cultivated a supreme technique, the Red Lotus Flame Technique…”
The information obtained from the Eye of Revelation made Chu Kuangren concerned.
Everyone in the whole world only knew of the White Cloud’s Honorable Swordsman in White Cloud City.
However, not many knew that the White Cloud’s Honorable Swordsman’s spouse was secretly also an Honorable Realm cultivator, being at the final stage as well.
She was just one step away from being a Supreme one.
Li Ruolan looked at the Ye family’s Third Master, her expression turned cold and grim. “How dare you hurt my son, you all shall die here!”
The Honorable Realm cultivator’s poise was mighty and turbulent, heading towards Chu Kuangren and Lan Yu.
Chu Kuangren mustered all his spiritual power and gathered them to their limits.
His three Daoist Physique transformations activated!
They barely held back the poise of the Honorable Realm cultivator!
“That’s just the sheer might of her poise, if she starts attacking it’ll be hundreds or thousand times stronger! Honorable realm cultivators are no joke.”
Chu Kuangren spoke to himself.
During that time, the Seventh Forefather was fighting the White Cloud’s Honorable Swordsman in a ferocious battle.
Upon seeing Chu Kuangren in trouble, his eyes turned red from anger, and he started to frantically swing his Azure Vine, trying to break away from the fight with White Cloud’s Honorable Swordsman.
However, the White Cloud’s Honorable Swordsman was a troublesome one, and would not allow him to break away easily.
“Seventh Forefather of the Black Heaven Sect, once my wife is done with Chu Kuangren we’ll join forces against you together. Let’s send you to the afterlife to serve as his protector as well!”
“Haha, how can you possibly fight against me once I obtain the Primordial Purple Haze and ascend to sagehood? Who cares even if your Black Heaven Sect is a sage orthodoxy?”
The White Cloud’s Honorable Swordsman laughed loudly, beaming with delight and confidence.
Under his provocation, the Seventh Forefather started to get distracted.
However, just when the situation was progressing in favor of the White Cloud’s Honorable Swordsman and his side, Chu Kuangren suddenly did something.
He slowly opened the palm of his hand. A purple-colored gas could be seen fuming from his palm, flowing with mysterious and beautiful Daoist Rhymes, which sounded and echoed majestically through the air.
“Aren’t you looking for this, the Primordial Purple Haze?”
Chu Kuangren gently smiled.
Everyone stopped whatever they were doing as they stared at the Primordial Purple Haze in awe. Their eyes filled with pa.s.sion and longing for that item.
That item was a type of Entwined Sage’s Fate!
Even the Honorable Supremes would scramble in madness, eager to get an item like this!
Now, that opportunity to do so laid before their very eyes.
No one knew what Chu Kuangren’s intention was for casually showing the Primordial Purple Haze, but it did not faze them in any way.
“Yes, hand it over this instant!”
“Chu Kuangren, hand it over now, we’ll spare your life if you do so.”
Ye Baifeng and the others hurriedly said.
“The Primordial Purple Haze, a type of Entwined Sage’s Fate. But did you all know that it can be used in another way as well?” Chu Kuangren casually grinned.
Li Ruolan, who could not help herself but be intoxicated and dazzled by the sight of the Primordial Purple Haze, regained her focus.
“Not good!” Upon hearing what Chu Kuangren said, Li Ruolan’s expression changed, and following that her terrifying Daoist Rhymes erupted and blasted out towards him in the form of a palm.
The Daoist Rhymes intertwined between the palm of her hands, forming into a beautiful red lotus.
However, what laid within it was horrifying surges of an Honorable cultivator’s poise.
It could even obliterate the strongest cultivators within the Battle Monarch level instantly!
However, it was too late.
Chu Kuangren’s palm clumped into a fist, crus.h.i.+ng the purple gas within it. A sudden burst of overflowing Daoist Rhymes exploded endlessly. Violent surges of spiritual power started to surround and swirl around his body like a great whirlwind!
The palm-shaped qi met and crashed against the whirlwind, and was instantly dispersed.
Within the smoke and dust that the impact kicked up, it was impossible to tell what condition Chu Kuangren’s was in, but everyone could feel a strong and terrifying build-up of Daoist Rhymes rising.
“What’s happening?!”
“This vast surge of Daoist Rhymes, what did he do!”
When the dust and smoke dissipated, Chu Kuangren appeared. At that moment, his body was surrounded by swirls of mysterious lights. Ridiculously powerful surges of Daoist Rhymes circulated around his body. His cultivation level was rising drastically.
Nascent Soul Realm, Paradise Realm, Battle Monarch Realm…
“What have you done?!” The White Cloud’s Honorable Swordsman yelled from mid-air, the veins on his forehead popping out and his bloodshot eyes filled with anger.
Obviously, that Honorable Supreme was extremely enraged, seething with unprecedented anger!
Mixed in with that anger was also bouts of sorrow!
Not just him, as well.
Li Ruolan, Ye Baifeng, and the others were also staring at Chu Kuangren with rage as if he did something unforgivable.
“To think he used the Primordial Purple Haze to force his cultivation level to rise temporarily as he absorbed it!” The Seventh Forefather could not help but feel a sense of regret in Chu Kuangren’s actions.
Everyone in the crowd knew that the Primordial Purple Haze was a type of Entwined Sage’s Fate. As long as one properly took the time to digest and absorb it, they could already reach the Sage Manifestation Realm by bypa.s.sing the Ascension Realm.
Besides that, however, the Primordial Purple Haze also had another use, which was to drastically increase one’s cultivation level for a short amount of time.
However, compared to the first use case, the second one was incomparably insignificant. No person in their right mind would use it for the latter purpose.
It would be too much of a waste for such a priceless item.
Compared to attaining sagehood, what worth would it have increasing one’s cultivation level for a short amount of time?
As time went on, everyone seemingly forgot that other function of the Primordial Purple Haze. They were now reminded of it from Chu Kuangren’s actions.
Which was using that very item in front of them in such a manner!
“B*st*rd, that b*st*rd!”
“That item is an Entwined Sage’s Fate. If properly used can enable one to become a sage. Yet for the sake of pursuing a short term benefit, he impulsively used it to forcefully raise his cultivation levels, and that rise will only last temporarily as well.”
“What a waste of such a precious item!”
Everyone in the crowd was angry and their reddened eyes filled with rage. They could do nothing but curse at him.
The Entwined Sage’s Fate was used up just like that in front of their eyes, it had created an unprecedented impact on all their Daoist hearts!
However, Chu Kuangren was not bothered by everyone’s reactions.
He was now immersed in the wealth of enlightenment brought upon by the Primordial Purple Haze and only felt the Daoist sounds reverberating in his ears. Countless feelings and a sense of mystery emerged.
Not only that, the spiritual power within his body shot up exponentially with the help of the Primordial Purple Haze, and reached the peak of the Battle Monarch cultivation level!
His three Supreme Daoist Physique Transformations were also strengthened immeasurably.
“D*mn you, I’ll turn you into a pile of ashes!”
The Primordial Purple Haze was destroyed just like that, the look on Li Ruolan’s face was extremely bitter.
In a fit of rage, she conjured up her spiritual power and unleashed violent surges of Daoist Rhymes, forming into a red lotus who was entwined in bright red flames.
That attack was filled with the might and poise of an Honorable one!
Chu Kuangren held his Descendent Self sword and swung it.
The Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique was released!
The terrifying sword light that was leaps and bounds more powerful than before bathed everything around it in light, while that red lotus seemed pet.i.te and tiny compared to the sheer might of that sword-light beam.
In the blink of an eye, the red lotus was shattered!
Li Ruolan was. .h.i.t by the sword attack and was flung away!
“How can this be?!”
Ye Baifeng and the others stared in disbelief and shock.
Even with the use of the Primordial Purple Haze, Chu Kuangren’s cultivation level only increased to the peak of the Battle Monarch Realm. How could that one attack from him send Li Ruolan flying?
A Battle Monarch’s and Honorable One’s power difference was like night and day.
“Oh, how the tables have turned.” Chu Kuangren chuckled while looking at Li Ruolan.
Before this, he felt that the might and poise of the Honorable Ones were very tremendous and limitless.
However, right now, that was not the case anymore.
“But I feel that I can become stronger!” Chu Kuangren grinned. The lingering effect of the Primordial Purple Haze had not yet dissipated completely!
It was Li Ruolan now who was frightened. Her face turned pale upon hearing that.
Being able to push her back and also hurt her with a single sword attack, if he got stronger, would that not mean he could easily crush her then?
“Not good, he’s reaching and breaking through to the Honorable Realm!”
