1834 The Origin of the Book of Human Emperors, Heavenly Xing Tribe, Golden Opportunity
Back in the Human Emperor Sect, golden runes from the Book of Human Emperors surrounded Chu Kuangren, with a holistic and inviolable aura emanating from it.
Even Gu Huang, an Embodier, could not help but have the urge to bow and wors.h.i.+p Chu Kuangren.
Suddenly, Chu Kuangren opened his eyes, and a vast energy presence overflowed.
Dragon qi gushed out from the tablet and rushed into the sky.
The golden dragon qi swirled above the Human Emperor Sect for a while, their roars echoing across the universe.
!!
The dragon qi was the culmination of human fortune.
It was a lot stronger than the nine dragon qi that the Human Emperor Sect constrained before.
All the cultivators of the sect were shocked. They gulped nervously as they watched the golden dragon qi paint the entire sky gold.
“Oh my G.o.d! What’s with this scale of dragon qi?”
“What is going on?”
“It’s Chu Kuangren! It must be him!”
Gu Huang was stunned since he was just beside the Book of Human Emperors.
The tablet contained such a large scale of human fortune, yet he never knew.
On top of that, he could sense an ancient presence contained in the dragon qi. It was the human fortune but not from this era.
The dragon qi was actually the culmination of the ancient human fortune.
“Roar!”
The terrifying dragon qi then gushed down toward Chu Kuangren.
Chu Kuangren stood still. With his Ultimate Human Emperor Technique activated, all the dragon qi were absorbed into his body.
The True Emperor Dragon in his body grew a few times stronger.
“The Book of Human Emperors, huh?” Chu Kuangren looked at the tablet before him and exclaimed.
The tablet contained all the major events that the Human Emperors experienced in the past, and it had collected the human fortune from ancient times until this day.
It was a real treasure — a treasure that was closely related to the human fortune!
Every time a Human Emperor was crowned, a dragon qi would be produced.
However, following the fall of the Human Emperors, the tablet, together with the human fortune and the dragon qi contained in it, entered an endless slumber.
That was until Chu Kuangren, the Human Emperor, found it.
The resonance activated the tablet and put Chu Kuangren on a trial, which was the major events he experienced inside the tablet.
After he cleared the trials, the tablet deemed him worthy, and as a qualified Human Emperor, it presented him with the ancient human fortune.
Chu Kuangren put his hand on the Book of Emperors and muttered, “I will not let you down. I will bring the human race back to its former glory in this era!”
He then turned to Gu Huang and said, “Be prepared for the war and wait for my order.”
He sounded indubitable.
Gu Huang was forced to obey him like a subject bowing to the king. “I understand.”
When he straightened him back, Chu Kuangren had left.
Gu Huang walked up to the tablet and looked at the flowing Daoist Rhymes. No matter how he looked at it, he could not understand the secret behind it.
A long while later, he exclaimed, “The glory of the Human Emperor will return in this era.”
His heart raced.
After all, the blood of the humans was flowing in him!
…
After Chu Kuangren left the Human Emperor Sect, he headed to his next destination.
It was an ancient mountain peak, where a terrifying battle intent lingered in the mountains, making the entire mountain feel like a living warrior.
In fact, based on an ancient legend, the mountain was home to an ancient master’s head.
The great one was named Xing Tian.
He used to fight the Immortal Hall, a formidable opponent.
Throughout history, the Kunlun Immortal Hall’s Thirty-Three Heavens were punctured twice.
One of them was caused by the Ape Forefather, Zhan Tian.
The other time happened a long time before the Ape Forefather’s event, which was the battle between Xing Tian and the Immortal Hall.
However, similar to the Ape Forefather, Xing Tian failed as well. His head was cut off and thrown into the Immortal World before fusing with a mountain.
The mountain was the one before Chu Kuangren, the Every Goat Mountain.
Chu Kuangren was here to look for the tribe on the mountain — Heavenly Xing Tribe.
After Xing Tian and Zhan Tian failed to wage war against the Immortal Hall, the Heavenly Xing Tribe hid at Every Goat Mountain for as long as they could to prevent the Immortal Hall from hunting them down.
They would be one of the strong allies of Chu Kuangren when he waged war against the Immortal Hall.
Swoos.h.!.+
A figure arrived before Chu Kuangren.
The man wielded a great axe and a s.h.i.+eld. When he saw Chu Kuangren, he was surprised. “It’s you?”
The man was Xing w.a.n.gu, who once fought on the Immortal King Arena.
“What are you doing here at Every Goat Mountain?” Xing w.a.n.gu looked at Chu Kuangren cautiously.
He was afraid that Chu Kuangren was here for revenge.
“Lower your guard. I come in peace today,” Chu Kuangren said.
“Xing w.a.n.gu, allow the Immortal King to enter,” an elder’s voice sounded from the deepest part of the mountain.
Then, Xing w.a.n.gu led Chu Kuangren into the mountains. After they pa.s.sed through the spatial restriction seal, they arrived at the Heavenly Xing Tribe’s home base.
Stone houses were built neatly next to each other in an orderly fas.h.i.+on, and they were lined up in a straight line on both sides of the main road.
Every residence of the place contained a wild and primal aura, and in the aura contained a strong vital force and battle intent.
It seemed like living in seclusion for as long as they did had not blunted their edges.
Chu Kuangren grinned as he believed he might be able to achieve his goal here.
If the Heavenly Xing Tribe wanted to stay away from the conflicts of the world, his journey here would be wasted.
They arrived at a stone palace.
Upon entering it, Chu Kuangren met a white-haired elder. The man’s hair was white, but his body remained buff and strong. His muscles bulged through his white robes, and his aura was countless times stronger than Xing w.a.n.gu.
If Xing w.a.n.gu were a lion cub, the old man would be a full-grown lion who had conquered the wild lands.
“I’m the Heavenly Xing Tribe Leader, Xing Cangfeng. Greetings, Immortal King,” the old man, Xing Cangfeng said with a fist salute.
“Greetings, Tribe Leader. I’ll skip to the point. I believe you already know why I’m here. I’d like to invite you to join me in waging war against the Immortal Hall.”
Xing w.a.n.gu’s eyes glinted when he heard Chu Kuangren. He was eager to join.
Xing Cangfeng, however, remained calm. He said indifferently, “The Heavenly Xing Tribe has lived in seclusion for many years and stayed away from mundane conflicts. Going against the Immortal Hall is too risky.”
“Is that so? In that case, I shall be on my way.”
Chu Kuangren stood up and wanted to leave immediately.
Xing Cangfeng was stunned.
Was that it? Was Chu Kuangren not even bothered to persuade him? How sincere was he?
“Ahem! Hold on, Immortal King,” Xing Cangfeng said.
“It’s risky to go against the Immortal Hall, but since you’ve asked, it’s not an absolute no from us either…”
“Tribe Leader, you don’t need to force yourself,” Chu Kuangren said with a smile.
When he saw the Heavenly Xing Tribe, he knew his trip here was more or less a fruitful one.
The Heavenly Xing Tribe was forced to live in seclusion because of the Immortal Hall.
Other than Chu Kuangren, they would be the ones who wanted to topple the reign of the Immortal Hall the most.
“It’s not that… Very well, the Heavenly Xing Tribe will join you in your siege on the Immortal Hall,” Xing Cangfeng said.
A strong battle intent erupted from his body, and everyone in the tribe sensed it.
Warcries sounded outside the stone palace.
“War! War! War!”
They already knew what Chu Kuangren wanted from them, and they were prepared to fight the Immortal Hall.
They had been waiting for countless years for this golden opportunity for them to overrun the Immortal Hall. They would never miss it!
