Chapter 719: The Blood Tribe Battalion Arrives, The Blood Prince
“You can’t stop this blade!”
Chu Kuangren uttered calmly as he unsheathed his Self-Descendant Sword.
As his sword ray penetrated the realm, Chu Kuangren used his Spatial Conveyor Skill to teleport the sword ray above Jian Que, slicing him in half amid his panic!
“Spatial Technique! D*mn it!”
Jian Wuque’s face sank.
He stared at Chu Kuangren deadly with his sword still in his hands. “Chu Kuangren, you’re way too much!”
“A dog who bit the hands that feed him deserves to be put down! If you wish to resume our battle, I’ll be willing to. However, you should know that the Blood Tribe battalion is arriving anytime now. It’s best that we retreat for now.”
Chu Kuangren said as he looked at the other party calmly.
Jian Wuque paused for a moment before he finally snorted. “No matter what Jian Que did, I can’t forgive you for killing my people in my presence! I’ll remember this and look for you upon our return!”
“As I said, I’d be more than willing to accept your invitation!”
Chu Kuangren activated his Spatial Conveyor Skill and vanished into thin air.
At that, Jian Wuque could not help but frown with annoyance.
“His Spatial Technique is surely annoying as h.e.l.l.”
Spatial Techniques were always notorious for being difficult techniques to counter. Even in the Extraterritorial Region, few possessed the abilities to wield these techniques.
…
“How did it go?”
Shang Honghua asked upon seeing Chu Kuangren’s return.
Chu Kuangren replied, “It’s been settled.”
Shang Honghua was not particularly excited. On the contrary, she said anxiously, “The Sword Tribe’s influence in the Extraterritorial Region is not to be underestimated. Killing their commander will definitely make you their enemy.”
Unknowingly, she was worried about Chu Kuangren.
“Heh, I’ve long gotten used to it.”
Chu Kuangren was indifferent to it.
After all, he had made a fair amount of enemies out of many ent.i.ties.
However, most of these ent.i.ties had either been annihilated or damaged to the point of no return, while here he was, still roaming around freely.
Chu Kuangren had long been accustomed to such a lifestyle.
“Alright now, you should leave before the Blood Tribe battalion arrives,” said Chu Kuangren to Shang Honghua and her troops.
“Are you sure you want to stay?”
Shang Honghua attempted to persuade him one last time.
“Yes, I’ve made up my mind.”
“Be careful then.” Shang Honghua had no choice but to lead the Reds.h.i.+rt Army away from Asteroid Seven.
Other Firmament Star cultivators who came to Asteroid Seven were taking their leaves as well.
One by one, fleets of wars.h.i.+ps departed the asteroid.
The Blood Tribe cultivators from afar frowned in confusion when they saw that.
“Why are these Firmament Star cultivators leaving?”
“Have they found out about our battalion? Who leaked our secret?”
The Blood Tribe cultivators were clueless.
They had initially planned to launch an all-out a.s.sault on the cultivators before exploring the Universal Secret Realm.
However, they had never expected that the cultivators would leave just like that!
It seemed like their plans had gone down the drains.
In Asteroid Seven.
Chu Kuangren said to Yue Zhaowu, “How long until the Blood Tribe’s battalion arrives?”
“Approximately three days’ time,” Yue Zhaowu answered.
“Does the secret realm require the combined strengths of ten High-rank Heavenly Imperial to open?” Chu Kuangren asked.
“That’s right. The barriers of Universal Secret Realms are fortified. Even the weakest of these realms cannot be opened easily.”
Yue Zhaowu said.
“Three days…” Chu Kuangren murmured.
He had three days to prepare.
“Head back to the Blood Tribe. If there are any updates, be sure to let me know.” Chu Kuangren arranged for Yue Zhaowu to collect intel from the Blood Tribe.
Then, he found a secured location and laid down layers of seals in the perimeter before he began to refine the Superb-tier Chaos Emblem.
Three days later.
A large fleet of wars.h.i.+ps arrived at Asteroid Seven’s...o...b..t.
There were countless platoons of Blood Tribe cultivators on board.
On the deck of the largest s.h.i.+p stood a black-cloaked cultivator, who had an utterly pale face. He was the leader of this battalion.
The youngster sat on his seat that was made out of the skin of a beast while swirling the wine in his wine gla.s.s.
The pale figure was accompanied by a parade of seductively-dressed Blood Tribe maidens as they serviced their leader. He was the epitome of a rich playboy.
Chu Kuangren expanded his Emperor Thought over the entire battalion and focused on the pale figure.
Although the pale figure seemed to be indulging in wines and maidens, Chu Kuangren could tell that he was the strongest of the battalion.
“Lil Ai, a.n.a.lyze him.”
“Yes, Master.”
The Omniscient Spirit responded with its signature deep voice before it shared an array of information about the pale youngster with Chu Kuangren.
“Bai Juexin, the Blood Prince of Bai House in the Blood Tribe… A High-rank Heavenly Imperial who can be considered a Half-step Daoist Celestial. He’s proficient in wielding the dark blood energy and the Esoteric Technique, Apocalyptic Trinity Blade…”
Chu Kuangren’s mind was swarmed with all of Bai Juexin’s information.
“The Blood Prince of the Bai House. It looks like he’s a significant figure in the Blood Tribe.”
Chu Kuangren was shocked.
As far as he knew, there were thirteen houses in the Blood Tribe, each of them led by their leaders who were known as the Blood Kings.
The Blood Kings were the most influential figures in the Blood Tribe, and all of them were cultivators of the Daoist Celestial Realms.
Bai Juexin was a Blood Prince.
This made him one of the more reputable figures in Blood Tribe.
According to Lil Ai’s a.n.a.lysis, even if Chu Kuangren’s abilities were to drastically improve upon absorbing the Superb-grade Chaos Emblem, he would only step into the Mid-rank Heavenly Imperial Realm.
Even then, there would still be a significant power gap between him and the Blood Prince.
A half-step Daoist Celestial was not a cultivator to fool around with. Furthermore, Bai Juexin had countless Blood Tribe soldiers under his command.
“There’s no way I can fight them with brute force. I guess I can only wait for the right moment.”
Chu Kuangren murmured.
With that, he continued to observe the Blood Tribe’s movement from the shadows.
Only when the battalion stopped in the upper atmosphere of Asteroid Seven did Bai Juexin gradually stand from his seat.
He extended his hands to stretch his back. “We’re finally here. Have we determined the Universal Secret Realm’s position?”
Bai Juexin said to a Blood Tribe cultivator beside him. The cultivator responded politely, “Yes, sir. It’s just above this asteroid.”
“Alright, then.” Bai Juexin nodded and gently lifted his hand to discharge a fury of crimson energy.
Once he unleashed a fist technique, a crimson projectile pierced through s.p.a.ce!
From Chu Kuangren’s acute sense, he could tell that the fist technique was not only infused with Emperor qi and Daoist patterns but also with… a miniverse!
It was not just a strand of universal energy!
Rather, it was the entire Heavenly Imperial’s miniverse!
Bai Juexin had managed to converge an entire miniverse into an offensive attack. This made him a far deadlier opponent than most Heavenly Imperials, who could only use miniverse as a form of leverage in battle.
“Is this how a half-step Daoist Celestial uses his miniverse?!”
Chu Kuangren tutted in awe.
A Heavenly Imperial’s strength was not only measured by their Emperor Qi and Daoist patterns. The usage of their miniverse could often distinguish the strong cultivators and the weaker ones apart.
Other than Bai Juexin, very few Heavenly Imperials would be able to launch a miniverse like a volleyball.
