Chapter 1059: The Road Ahead Is Closed, Channeling the Earth Qi, Battling a Heavenly Immortal Again
“I can’t believe three high-grade Planet Hunters and even a Heavenly Dao Envoy has been dispatched just to attack a small planet like the Firmament Star. Is the Master Daoist taking things a little too far?” an armored man complained.
The other two Earthen Immortals beside him also seem to agree with him.
“There must be a reason for the Daoist to do this. Let’s just focus on destroying the Firmament Star and capturing that person back alive,” said the white-haired Heavenly Immortal.
“We’re just curious, that’s all. Is a tiny Firmament Star that interesting to the Master?” one of the Earthen Immortals asked.
They continued chatting. However, the white-haired Heavenly Immortal suddenly sensed something, and he looked to the front of the army.
The next instant, an incomparably powerful surge of energy spread, causing the wars.h.i.+ps and cultivators at the front to perish right away!
A white-robed figure walked out of the void. He emanated a powerful aura, and a powerful wave of Immortal’s Core energy immediately trembled the surrounding s.p.a.ce.
“Everyone, the road ahead is closed!” the person who appeared said. He put up a sword hand sign, transforming his Immortal’s Core energy into sword qi and unleas.h.i.+ng them as far as thousands of kilometers away. A huge number of wars.h.i.+ps were immediately destroyed!
“You b*stard! Take this!”
At that sight, the dozens of Ninth-grade Immortals were enraged beyond belief. They quickly attacked, unleas.h.i.+ng a barrage of attacks that tore through the void towards Chu Kuangren.
“Shatter!” Chu Kuangren said indifferently and gently pointed his sword hand sign forward.
A dazzling purple sword ray shot out.
Boom, boom, boom!
One explosion after another erupted in the void, where the sword ray easily destroyed their attacks. Those Immortals who attacked exploded into mists of blood the next instant!
“An Earthen Immortal! He’s an Earthen Immortal!”
“How can there be an Earthen Immortal in such a small galaxy?!”
Some of the ordinary Immortals were so shocked that they immediately stepped back.
The three leading Planet Hunters, who were all Earthen Immortals, looked at Chu Kuangren. Their eyes widened a little as one of them took out a portrait.
It was a portrait of Chu Kuangren.
“That is the person Master Daoist wants us to capture!”
“Well, I’ll have to thank him for bringing himself to us. This saves us the time to go looking for him later.”
“Hmph, an Earthen Immortal, huh? You’re certainly strong, but before the likes of us, the only thing you can do is to be captured!”
After that, one of the Planet Hunters attacked. He was armed with a long saber and golden-red armor.
His figure disappeared in a flash, covering thousands of kilometers, and reached Chu Kuangren in the blink of an eye. Then, he let out a ferocious slash.
The edges of his saber were razor-sharp and filled with countless Daoist patterns. That attack he unleashed was powerful enough to tear the s.p.a.ce in half.
However, Chu Kuangren raised his eyes and glanced at his opponent. He formed a sword hand sign and released a huge amount of Immortal’s Core energy that turned into a strand of sword qi.
The sword and saber collided with a clang.
Following that, blood splattered around, filling the s.p.a.ce with red!
That attacking Planet Hunter and his sword were brutally sliced in half, shocking the other Earthen Immortals.
“How is this possible? Judging from his aura, he has only broken through to the Earthen Immortal Realm recently, while old man Zhao over there is already a Middle Third-grade Earthen Immortal. How could he be killed in a single attack? This is simply unbelievable.”
“It’s the Immortal’s Core. There’s something weird about his Immortal’s Core.”
They would never have thought that the Invincible Self-Empowering Source that Chu Kuangren cultivated was the greatest outlier throughout the whole universe. Hence, the Invincible Self-Empowering Immortal’s Core that was produced as a result was naturally not on the same level as ordinary Immortal’s Cores.
Chu Kuangren was undoubtedly undefeatable when compared to cultivators at the same cultivation level!
“D*mn it!”
“Channel the earth qi now!”
The remaining Earthen Immortals exchanged glances before they rose into the sky. With their Immortal’s Cores activated, they gathered earth qi from dozens of planets around them and combined it with their Immortal’s Core to unleash their Earthen Immortal Techniques at their fullest potential.
“Slash of Doom!”
“Solar Dragon Slas.h.!.+”
“Windbreaking G.o.dwake Spear!”
Various powerful Immortal Techniques were unleashed with the surrounding earth qi as they headed toward Chu Kuangren with overwhelming might.
In the meantime, the other cultivators had also activated the offensive formations on their wars.h.i.+ps, releasing a rain of devastating light beams one after another alongside the barrage of Immortal Techniques.
Even a Heavenly Immortal would have to be careful in the face of such an attack.
However, Chu Kuangren’s gaze was calm as usual.
He gestured a sword hand sign, channeling the sword qi around him. “Channeling earth qi, huh? Do you think you’re the only ones who know how to do that?” He chuckled while activating his Earthen Immortal Techniques.
At that, all the earth qi from hundreds of surrounding planets within a million-kilometer radius gathered towards him. It was as if thousands of torrential waves were all converging towards one spot.
Everyone was shocked.
The amount of earth qi an Earthen Immortal could channel was usually limited. The higher tier the Earthen Immortal, the larger the amount of earth qi they could control.
Although Chu Kuangren had only just become an Earthen Immortal, the amount of earth qi he could channel far exceeded the combined amount of all Earthen Immortals present!
It was the first time they had ever encountered anything like that.
‘W-What kind of freak is he?’
A tremendous amount of earth qi surged forth, and Chu Kuangren pointed his sword hand sign at the sky. A gigantic purple sword shadow that was thousands of kilometers long immediately appeared as if it was going to tear apart s.p.a.ce itself.
As the sword shadow came cras.h.i.+ng down, countless purple lotuses formed from the combination of Immortal’s Core energy and earth qi. The lotuses soon covered the surrounding s.p.a.ce and turned it into a gorgeous display of flowers.
Boom!
Following a huge explosion, the surrounding planets trembled, and countless wars.h.i.+ps exploded one after another under that terrifying blastwave.
The Immortals and Earthen Immortals who attacked were the first to get caught up in that attack. All of them were sent flying with blood spurting from their mouths, their Immortal bodies were injured.
On the other hand, Chu Kuangren remained standing on the spot. To him, that terrifying impact energy was like a tiny gust of wind, and it did not bother him at all.
“This is impossible!”
“How is he so powerful? Is he really a cultivator who just became an Earthen Immortal?”
“No wonder Master Daoist is so interested in him.”
Everyone was astounded.
Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren stood with his hands behind his back. His expression was indifferent as he looked at the white-haired Heavenly Immortal. “Aren’t you going to attack?”
The white-haired Heavenly Immortal had never looked so serious before. “You truly are a freak.”
“I’ll take it as a compliment, but that doesn’t mean it’ll save your life anyway. You still have to die.”
“Hmph! How arrogant. The difference between an Earthen Immortal and a Heavenly Immortal is not something you can possibly fathom.”
As soon as the white-haired Heavenly Immortal stepped forth, his mighty Immortal’s Core energy erupted, and he sent a punch into s.p.a.ce. A palm sign then appeared in the air and headed quickly towards Chu Kuangren.
“Heavenly Immortals are said to be so powerful that their Daoist Techniques can transcend the heavens itself. Let’s see how transcendent your Daoist Techniques are then.” Chu Kuangren laughed as his Descendant Self Sword unsheathed itself and released a powerful purple sword ray at its opponent.
The sword qi and palm sign clashed, sending terrifying shockwaves everywhere.
The palm sign was torn apart by the sword qi, which subsequently lost power and dispersed.
Chu Kuangren channeled his Immortal’s Core energy and let out a few more strikes. The white-haired Heavenly Immortal also attacked continuously, crus.h.i.+ng all of the incoming sword qi. As the momentum and rate of attacks increased, even the white-haired Heavenly Immortal could not help but feel shocked.
“This person’s strength is out of this world. How can he, an Earthen Immortal, go head to head with a Heavenly Immortal?!”
“His Immortal’s Core is incredibly peculiar. It seems to have a suppressing effect on my Immortal’s Core. How did he achieve this?”
The white-haired Heavenly Immortal was baffled.
Nevertheless, he steadied himself and let out a low grunt. Following that, he started channeling his Immortal’s Core energy to its full potential, while a surge of Heavenly Dao energy suddenly appeared.
“Mighty Divine Heavenly Seal!”
