1905 Break The Shackles, Great Dao, Are You Going Against the Heavens?
Chu Kuangren surprised everyone in the Mystic Divination Tribe with his words.
He called the ancient tribe a pitiful tribe that was surviving with shackles on its shoulders.
If someone else called the Mystic Divination Tribe a pitiful tribe, he would be labeled as a madman. However, the words came from the Heavenly Sword himself.
Things had just gotten interesting.
The Mystic Divination Tribe Leader gave an immediate response.
“Heavenly Sword, your eyes see through all.”
He then took a deep breath and looked at Chu Kuangren. “To be honest, we invited you here because of the shackles on us.”
“Oh? Interesting. Tell me what this is about,” Chu Kuangren said with a grin.
“I would like to request for the Heavenly Sword to break the shackles off our shoulders. I wonder if you can do it?” the Mystic Divination Tribe Leader asked.
He then signaled his men with a glance.
Soon, the others left the hall, leaving the Tribe Leader, Heaven Maiden You, and several more elders alone with Chu Kuangren.
Everyone looked at Chu Kuangren.
Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren was communicating with Lil Ai.
“Lil Ai, is it possible to break their Great Dao shackles?” Chu Kuangren asked.
If it was just a curse, it would be easy because he had the Cursebreaker Sword. However, the Great Dao’s shackle was unlike a curse.
Lil Ai a.n.a.lyzed and said, “It can be removed.”
Nicely done!
Chu Kuangren secretly gave Lil Ai a huge thumbs up.
Under everyone’s antic.i.p.ating gazes, Chu Kuangren said, “It’s not difficult to remove the shackles on your tribe, but…”
The Tribe Leader, Heaven Maiden You, and the other elders were delighted when they first heard Chu Kuangren.
They were also surprised that the Heavenly Sword had the capability to remove the shackles of the Great Dao.
However, when they heard the word ‘but’, everyone’s heart pounded wildly.
“What are you going to repay the Heavens with?” Chu Kuangren finished his sentence.
Everyone exchanged a baffled look.
There was no free lunch in the world. Chu Kuangren could help them remove the Great Dao’s shackles, but what could they offer to repay him?
Heaven Maiden You pondered and then knelt in front of Chu Kuangren with a thud. “If the Heavenly Sword can remove the shackles for my tribe, I will become your follower.”
“You alone?”
Chu Kuangren looked at her calmly.
The Mystic Divination Tribe Leader heard Chu Kuangren and pondered for a moment before he realized what Chu Kuangren was looking for. The elders shared the same consideration as well.
If Heaven Maiden You alone was not enough, was the Heavenly Sword after the entire Mystic Divination Tribe?
The thought made everyone gasp in shock.
Heavenly Sword was overly demanding!
He wanted the entire Mystic Divination Sword to be under his command!
The Mystic Divination Sword had a special position in the Central Heaven Universe, and no force could ever make them bent, let alone a single person.
“Our tribe has deduced and studied the Great Dao for many years, and that’s why we’re shackled by it. Our tribe men’s lifespan is only a little over a hundred thousand years. If the Heavenly Sword can help us remove the shackles, the Mystic Divination Tribe can fulfill three of your wishes unconditionally,” said the Tribe Leader after some serious consideration.
The entire tribe submitting to a single person was an outrageous idea.
The Mystic Divination was a huge tribe with many people. The Tribe Leader had no idea what fate the decision would bring to his people.
Would it be destruction? Or rebirth?
As such, he decided to take a step back and meet Chu Kuangren in the middle.
Even though fulfilling three wishes for the Heavenly Sword unconditionally was also a costly price to pay, it was better than putting the entire tribe under his command for an unknown future.
“My promise remains. If the Heavenly Sword can free us from this shackle that has been troubling us for ages, I will follow you for the rest of my life,” Heaven Maiden You said with a solemn look.
Compared to the Tribe Leader, she was much more decisive and determined.
Maybe she already had the thought a long time ago and was just using the chance to voice it out.
Chu Kuangren pondered about it for a while and said, “I’ll take it.”
He agreed!
Although he could not have the entire tribe under his command, it was not a big deal because he still had many powers and forces under his control.
Besides, with Heaven Maiden You, a Nine King, alone, it was quite the sweet deal.
“Well then, let’s get prepared. Shall we?” Chu Kuangren looked at Heaven Maiden You.
He pointed his sword hand sign at her. Then, his eyes narrowed sharply, and an intent that surpa.s.sed all things started to appear around him.
It was his Dao.
Daoist law manifested into a sword before it was shot at Heaven Maiden You.
The sword was sharp, but having sensed something unusual, Heaven Maiden You did not dodge it.
When the sword pierced through her body, she could feel the shackles that had been holding her down for ages break instantly.
The Great Dao’s shackles had been broken!
The Tribe Leader and the elders were over the moon!
“He did it! The Heavenly Sword did it!”
“The Heavenly Sword can really remove the Great Dao’s shackles for us! This is great! This is great!”
“As expected of the man who defeated the Creation G.o.d! This power is astonis.h.i.+ng!”
The others looked at Chu Kuangren excitedly, and the worries and concerns they had finally faded. They had nothing but antic.i.p.ation for their turn.
“Is this how it feels like to be free?” Heaven Maiden You had never felt so relaxed before.
Not only that, but she could also feel the bottleneck loosening, drawing her closer to the Embodier G.o.d King Realm.
“Thank you, Heavenly Sword,” Heaven Maiden You said as she bowed.
Kaboom!
Suddenly, the outside world shook.
Dark clouds rumbled across the planet, and terrifying Great Dao’s vital force spread across the sky. Terrifying energy could be felt in the sky.
It was the Lightning Tribulation!
The Universal Great Dao had sensed someone breaking its own shackles, and as retaliation, it decided to strike the person responsible.
A powerful heavenly aura stirred up a storm across the planet.
The entire tribe was shrouded by the fear of the unknown as everyone looked at the incoming Lightning Tribulation.
Swoos.h.!.+
The experts of the Mystic Divination Tribe stepped up.
There were a few G.o.d Kings among them, but even they could not hold back their fear of the Lightning Tribulation.
They could feel the shackles of the Great Dao in them shaking.
The Great Dao was angry.
As for Heaven Maiden You, since her shackles were broken, the pressure she felt was not as strong as the others. However, she still looked somber nevertheless.
Kakroom!
A bolt of lightning struck down from the sky. It was so powerful that not even an Embodier could withstand it. If that lightning bolt struck the planet, many people would die.
The G.o.d Kings wanted to step up to protect the people, but due to the restrictions of the shackles, their bodies were held back by the power from the ancient planets and they could not move.
Suddenly, a sword shadow rose into the sky.
The sword shadow emanated a surge of dazzling Daoist law energy, and it was so powerful that it struck the incoming lightning bolt.
“It’s the Heavenly Sword!”
“The Heavenly Sword has responded!”
Everyone looked at the palace with excitement.
A figure in white stepped out and looked at the lightning clouds in the sky with a sharp gaze.
He rose to the sky, not to stand under but on the same level as the lightning clouds.
His gaze turned cold as he said, “Great Dao, are you going against Heaven?”
