Chapter 2128 Triple Breakthrough, I Want You to Gain Control of Myriad Arms City for Me
Chu Kuangren struck down the Primordial Tribulation with a single strike!
On top of that, it was the Hongmeng Primordial Tribulation!
The sword attack stunned everyone present. Even an elite like Ming Fei was shocked.
"This sword attack must be on the level of a Hongmeng-level technique."
There were less than a handful of Hongmeng-level techniques in the Holy Radiant Church, and only Monarchs could unleash them.
Even a Monarch would only use something like that as a trump card.
With his newly acquired Primordial cultivation, Chu Kuangren was capable of unleas.h.i.+ng a Hongmeng-level sword technique, even if he had the help of a Hongmeng Supreme Treasure.
That was enough to prove the potential he possessed.
If everything went well for him, the Infiniverse would gain another Monarch-cla.s.s elite in the future!
Moments after Chu Kuangren had slashed the Primordial Tribulation with a single strike, strands of purple Hongmeng spiritual qi immediately headed for Chu Kuangren from all directions and entered his body.
Everyone marveled in admiration.
"I once saw this in an ancient text that if a person manages to survive and pa.s.s a Hongmeng Primordial Tribulation, he or she shall receive great blessings from the Great Hongmeng Universe."
"I thought it was just a legend, but it seems true."
Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren, who was at the center of the Hongmeng spiritual qi, was sitting calmly with his legs crossed. He was absorbing the surrounding spiritual qi into his body.
Although he unleashed a mind-blowing sword attack and destroyed the Primordial Tribulation, he was exhausted.
With the supply of spiritual qi entering his body now, his strength was quickly replenished.
Moreover, his cultivation level was also increasing.
His Primordial energy had just formed, so he was only in the Mystic One Realm.
However, after the Hongmeng spiritual qi"s boost, his cultivation level immediately skyrocketed from Primordial Mystic One, Mystic Two, Mystic Three… to Primordial Mystic Nine Realm!
Under the strengthening effects of the ma.s.sive surge of Hongmeng spiritual qi, his cultivation level achieved the Primordial Mystic Nine Realm!
Despite having just become a Primordial, he was now standing at the peak of power in that cultivation realm!
Something like that was simply unheard of.
Even the group of Monarch-cla.s.s elites were shocked.
"I can"t believe that the rewards given for successfully pa.s.sing the Hongmeng Primordial Tribulation are so immense. It usually takes years for ordinary people to climb from the Mystic One Realm to the Mystic Nine Realm, not to mention the vast number of resources needed. Oh, what a good life he has, to have the chance to reach that level in an instant."
"That"s right. The rewards are indeed extraordinary. If he continues to grow, he"ll surely become one of the Monarchs in the future."
"Tsk tsk. What an interesting fellow. I"m looking forward to him growing stronger."
Everyone continued the discussion.
However, that was not the end of Chu Kuangren"s evolution.
After increasing Chu Kuangren"s cultivation to the Primordial Mystic Nine Realm, the Hongmeng spiritual qi began entering his flesh and bones, strengthening his body.
Although he already had the Primordial Nine Tribulations Physique, under the strengthening effects of the Hongmeng spiritual qi, his physical body had surpa.s.sed and broken through the ninth tribulation stage, reaching a new stage that had never been achieved before!
After the breakthroughs in his physical body and cultivation level, the Hongmeng spiritual qi began nouris.h.i.+ng his soul.
Large amounts of Hongmeng spiritual qi gushed into Chu Kuangren"s mind.
The Devil King, who was still sealed, was amazed when she saw the vast amount of spiritual qi. "As expected for the one who pa.s.sed the Hongmeng Primordial Tribulation. He"s amazing!"
Lil Ai may have fortified her seal, making it impossible for her to communicate with Chu Kuangren, but she was still the Devil King.
There was a weak connection between her remnant soul and the Devil"s Eye. Hence, she could see what Chu Kuangren was going through.
Truth be told, she was also shocked beyond belief. "The Hongmeng Primordial Tribulation, the rarest and most terrifying tribulation out there in the Infiniverse, was destroyed by a single strike?"
It was her first time witnessing something like that.
To think that the person she wanted to be her host was actually a monster!
At that thought, she no longer felt embarra.s.sed about being sealed away inside someone like that.
"Tsk, as expected of the guy I had my eyes on. He"s quite impressive."
The Devil King took pleasure in that.
She also praised herself, stroking her ego a little.
At that moment, Lil Ai appeared inside Chu Kuangren"s mind. She looked at the seemingly endless amounts of Hongmeng spiritual qi pouring in and started to funnel and guide them through.
She was trying to maximize the effects of the spiritual qi to the greatest she could.
Chu Kuangren"s mind gradually became more and more powerful.
His soul cultivation realm also broke through from the Chaos Realm to the Transcendence Realm.
Although the risks he faced during the tribulations this time were life-threatening, the rewards he gained were tremendous.
His physical body, soul realm, and cultivation level all had a breakthrough!
Chu Kuangren looked at the remaining Hongmeng spiritual qi in his surroundings. With a thought from his mind, he channeled the spiritual qi into the Descendant Self Sword.
Like a whale opening its mouth, the Descendant Self Sword absorbed all of it without hesitation.
Its white jade-like body gained a faint glimmering layer of purple on it.
With that, the Primordial Tribulation ended.
Chu Kuangren returned to the Blazing Flame Volcano"s peak.
Ou Yenuo walked up to him and looked at him, stunned. "Brother Chu, your techniques are simply eye-opening."
"It"s all thanks to you, Master Ou, for forging me such a splendid sword. Here"s something as a token of my appreciation." As Chu Kuangren spoke, he took out a few Chaos Crystals.
They were energy crystals of a higher grade than the Immortal Crystals and would occasionally be used in trades between Primordials.
During Chu Kuangren"s years in the Great Hongmeng Universe, he had come to acquire some of them.
"Brother Chu, I"m afraid I can"t accept this. Since you had a.s.sisted me in my recovery, I had to forge you a weapon. That was our deal. How can I accept more payment? Besides, I"m ashamed to say that because of Ou Chen"s antics, I was powerless to save this Hongmeng Supreme Treasure. In the end, it was you, Brother Chu, who turned the situation around. All in all, I owe you tremendously for this, Brother Chu."
Ou Yenuo felt a little ashamed.
Chu Kuangren did not say anything more either and kept the Chaos Crystals.
However, at the mention of Ou Chen"s name, his expression turned cold. "Where is Ou Chen now? Have you guys found him?"
Ou Chen had almost caused him to lose a Hongmeng Supreme Treasure.
Chu Kuangren would never let a person like that go.
"I have sent my men to find him, and they"ve scoured the city, but there is no sign of him. I"m a.s.suming he fled after learning that the situation is against him."
Having been based in Myriad Arms City for so many years, the connections and resources Ou Chen possessed were no joke. Hence, it would not be difficult for him to leave the city.
Now that Ou Chen had left, Ou Yenuo was the strongest weaponsmith in Myriad Arms City. However, he still needed time to gain full control of the city.
Chu Kuangren pondered as he looked at Ou Yenuo. Then, he said, "Master Ou, I recall you saying that if I can heal your injuries, you"re willing to pledge your allegiance to me."
"That"s right."
Ou Yenuo"s expression turned serious.
"Very well. I want you to gain control of Myriad Arms City for me!"
"Yes, Master."
Ou Yenuo immediately addressed Chu Kuangren differently as a sign of his servitude.
After witnessing Chu Kuangren undergo his ascension, Ou Yenuo fully understood the potential that Chu Kuangren had. He knew he would not suffer any losses by taking Chu Kuangren as his master.
Besides, Chu Kuangren was the one who healed him, allowing him to replace Ou Chen as the best weaponsmith. That convinced him even more that serving Chu Kuangren was the right thing to do.
"Are you creating a new force?"
Ming Fei walked to Chu Kuangren, looked at him, and asked.
"I have a few ideas, yes. What"s the matter? Are you going to stop me?"
"I don"t care what kind of force you establish, as long as it doesn"t pose a threat to Her Holiness. Otherwise, my sword will show you no mercy!"
Just as Ming Fei turned around to leave, Chu Kuangren asked her, "Are you leaving already?"
"Her Holiness has sent me a message saying that the Apocalypse Martial Society will no longer bother you. There"s no need for me to stay here anymore," said Ming Fei as she rode her white pegasus into the skies.
