Chapter 847: The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal, The Final Trial, The Astral Illusory Realm
Inside the Violet Blood Daoist Palace.
Shui Qianhua, Jian Sanjue, Jin Feiyi, and Zi Feng were sitting on a futon. The four of them were frowning as if enduring some sort of trial.
A rhombus-shaped crystal was hovering above them.
Chu Kuangren arrived at the s.p.a.ce.
He was a little surprised seeing the four Immortal Progenies before him.
"What are they doing?"
He then looked strangely at the rhombus-shaped crystal. "Lil Ai, a.n.a.lyze this for me."
Just as Lil Ai was a.n.a.lyzing that crystal, a voice suddenly came from it. "Welcome, young sky-pride."
A futon soon appeared before Chu Kuangren.
"Are you the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal?"
"I am but a remnant of his consciousness. As for my true body, he has already ventured out into the universe in search of ways to become an Immortal."
"What are they doing?"
"They are now undergoing the final test. If they pa.s.s, they shall receive the inheritance that I"ve left inside this Violet Blood Daoist Palace. I suppose you"re here for my inheritance as well. Now, let"s start the trial."
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal chuckled.
"a.n.a.lysis complete."
Lil Ai"s voice sounded, and everything about the rhombus-shaped crystal appeared in Chu Kuangren"s mind. After this, a playful look flashed across Chu Kuangren"s face. "I shall have a go at this trial then."
Then, he walked up and sat on the futon.
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal was a little surprised. After all, he was the lord of this Daoist Palace and a Pseudo Immortal. The previous sky-prides that entered had all treated him with great respect, yet Chu Kuangren"s att.i.tude towards him seemed… mischievous?
"I see you"re very prideful, young sky-pride."
The Violet Gold Pseudo Immortal said.
"How can I possibly be a young sky-pride if I"m not prideful? Besides, the amount of pridefulness I display also depends on the person I"m dealing with too." Chu Kuangren grinned.
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal fell silent.
He realized that the person before him was different compared to the others.
"Could he have discovered something?"
"Impossible."
His plans were flawless. How could Chu Kuangren find out?
He must be overthinking.
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal no longer thought about it and continued speaking. "Now, inject a strand of your Emperor Thoughts into this rhombus-shaped crystal to start the trial."
Chu Kuangren did as he said.
His Emperor Thoughts surged out of him.
Following that, he felt a huge suction force coming out from the crystal, traveling toward his soul via his Emperor Thoughts. It was dragging his soul into the crystal.
"Don"t fight it. Your soul will be damaged if you do otherwise."
The Violet Gold Pseudo Immortal"s voice echoed.
After that, Chu Kuangren"s soul was dragged into an inexplicable s.p.a.ce.
There was a fighting arena in the void in front of him.
In the fighting arena, two people were battling each other.
They were Jin Feiyi and Zi Feng.
Shui Qianhua and Jian Sanjue were watching below the arena.
It was worth noting that although Jin Feiyi and Zi Feng were currently both in astral form, they could still use their techniques. As such, they looked like they were fighting in their true bodies, which was very strange.
Without incomparably powerful soul energy, something like this would be impossible to achieve. Logically speaking, although the two of them were Immortal Progenies, they should not be able to achieve something like this as they do not specialize in Soul Dao.
"It"s because of the rhombus-shaped crystal. We"re now inside the s.p.a.ce within the rhombus-shaped crystal, and it is here that our souls can move around as if we"re in our real bodies. We can even fight!"
Chu Kuangren mumbled.
"That"s right. I found this rhombus-shaped crystal by chance. It"s called the Astral Illusory Realm. When you"re inside the Astral Illusory Realm, your astral forms can move about as if you"re in your real bodies." The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal"s voice sounded.
Chu Kuangren was not surprised.
It was as if he knew about this.
Shui Qianhua and Jian Sanjue soon noticed Chu Kuangren"s arrival, and both of them were shocked.
"I can"t believe there are more sky-prides besides us who can enter this Violet Blood Daoist Palace." Jian Sanjue said.
"From the looks of it, he should be Chu Kuangren, the one who defeated a group of Immortal Progenies at the Dusty Sky Planet half a year ago."
Shu Qianhua"s eyes lit up.
"Yeah, that"s him." Jian Sanjue recalled the event too. With killing intent coming from his eyes, he said, "I know this guy has a Sword Dao Immortal Technique. I wonder if his technique is more powerful than mine, though."
While the two of them were talking, Chu Kuangren walked up to them.
"You just entered this Astral Illusory Realm, right? I suppose you must"ve learned about the trial from the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal," Shui Qianhua said as she looked at Chu Kuangren strangely.
It was not surprising that Chu Kuangren"s appearance and temperament were very lethal to female cultivators like Shui Qianhua.
"Alright." Chu Kuangren nodded.
"The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal has taken everything into account. He said we"re all Immortal Progenies with infinite potential, and he could not bear to watch us kill one another over his inheritance. That"s why he set up this Astral Illusory Realm for our souls to exit our bodies and fight here. In here, our souls will never die."
Jian Sanjue said.
"Oh, I know."
"With that in mind, let"s have a good fight later."
Jian Sanjue changed the topic and said.
"Alright."
Chu Kuangren nodded.
After that, his figure disappeared in a flash and appeared in the fighting arena. Jin Feiyi and Zi Feng, who were fighting, were stunned to see him.
What was going on?
"Newcomer, we still haven"t decided on the winner yet. Why are you here?" Jin Feiyi said unhappily.
Zi Feng looked at him coldly.
Chu Kuangren stood with his arms crossed. Although he was in astral form, his Dao stood out a lot. Countless Daoist patterns were surrounding and intertwining around him, turning into a terrifying domineering aura that spread across the entire area.
The whole Astral Illusory Realm suddenly started to rumble.
"Although I can"t fight you in my true body, there isn"t much difference in this Astral Illusory Realm. Alright, the four of you. Come at me now."
Chu Kuangren said indifferently.
He wanted to fight all four of them together!
They were the most top-tiered Immortal Progenies in the Violet Gold Galaxy.
"Ridiculous!"
"Young lad, don"t you think you"re being too arrogant?!"
Even the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal was dumbfounded.
Chu Kuangren stood where he was and looked at Jian Sanjue, saying, "Didn"t you say you wanted a proper fight? Why aren"t you moving?"
Jian Sanjue"s expression was a little grim. He did want to fight Chu Kuangren to his heart"s content and witness the might of his opponent"s Sword Dao Immortal Technique.
However, he was talking about a one on one fight!
Not a group battle!
It made him feel that his dignity as a swordsman was being challenged!
"Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal, aren"t you going to say anything about this?" Jin Feiyi said towards the void.
"Since Junior Chu wants to fight one against four, I"m speechless. If you succeed, then my inheritance is yours."
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal said.
Everyone was very surprised to hear that.
They did not expect the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal to agree to his demand.
"Whatever. Let"s take care of this arrogant guy and settle our fight later!" Jin Feiyi said.
He then stepped forth with Daoist patterns swirling in his palms. As a golden glow appeared from his fists, a surge of domineering aura swept out everywhere.
Chu Kuangren also unleashed a punch in response.
Both Daoist patterns intertwined as the two punches collided. In that split second, Jin Feiyi"s body was sent flying out of the fighting arena.
"How is this possible?!"
"Even if he"s stronger than me, how is he so much more powerful?!" Countless sparks of green light dispersed from Jin Feiyi"s body.
That was his soul energy.. Although his soul would not die in the Astral Illusory Realm, his soul energy could still be depleted.
