Chapter 850: Who Told You There’s Only One of Me? The Three Powerful Souls Start to Attack
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Soul Refining Altar suddenly appeared inside the Astral Illusory Realm.
As Chu Kuangren was trapped inside, his soul energy was being continuously refined by the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal. Meanwhile, the Immortal Progenies looked at each other while it happened.
“What a shame. There goes a top-tier Immortal Progeny.”
Zi Feng shook his head in lament.
However, there was a look of delight on his face.
Although he did not hold any grudges with Chu Kuangren, he would not mind having one less opponent on his path to become an Immortal.
“You id*ot.”
Jian Sanjue beside him suddenly remarked.
“What do you mean?”
Zi Feng’s face turned grim.
“Do you truly believe that the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal will let us go after he’s done with Chu Kuangren? How naive of you.”
Jian Sanjue said coldly.
‘Who knows what kind of tricks that Pseudo Immortal still has up his sleeve?’
At that, the other three Immortal Progenies fell deep in thought.
“Jian Sanjue, I have no intention of provoking Planet Zi, Planet Jin, the Heavenly Sword Sect, and the Stillwater Sect. Once I’m done refining Chu Kuangren, I’ll let you guys go.”
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal said from the Soul Refining Altar.
Despite that, Jian Sanjue turned a deaf ear and pointed his sword hand sign towards the Pseudo Immortal. Upon channeling his soul energy, three swords hovered around him, and a powerful burst of sword aura erupted. “The only things I believe in are my swords!”
Then, he launched his three swords towards the Soul Refining Altar at great speeds!
Boom!
His sword qi dispersed, and the void rumbled.
However, the Soul Refining Altar was… undamaged!
Jian Sanjue frowned.
“It’s useless. Even at your peak, there is no way you guys will be able to break open the boundary of this Soul Refining Altar. Besides, your soul energies have been heavily depleted after that great fight earlier.”
“That’s the true motive behind that trial of yours earlier, right? All you wanted was to deplete our soul energies so that you could possess us easily.”
Jian Sanjue said coldly.
“That’s right.”
“You even agreed to Chu Kuangren’s request for him to fight four of us alone. That’s because you’ve already chosen him as your vessel. Am I right? Seeking to possess him, you allowed us to attack and fight him, hoping that we could help weaken and deplete his soul energy for you,” said Shui Qianhua.
“Yup. You’re right on all accounts.”
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal laughed and nodded.
“Hmph.”
Shui Qianhua let out a low grunt, and her soul energy erupted. Several rays of water light swirled around her, turning into a raging wave that crashed towards the altar’s enchanted boundary.
“Oh? You want to save him now?”
“It’s a waste to let such a good-looking pretty boy die. Besides, like Jian Sanjue, I don’t believe a single thing that’s coming out from your mouth!”
Strands of Daoist patterns surrounded Shui Qianhua as she prepared to unleash her Immortal Technique.
Jian Sanjue’s sword aura was growing stronger too.
Jin Feiyi and Zi Feng, who stood beside them, fell silent at that sight. However, after some pondering, they started channeling their Immortal Techniques and prepared to attack as well.
Rather than placing their hopes on the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal’s blatant promises, they would much prefer believing in themselves.
Four surges of Immortal Techniques erupted and landed on the altar’s boundary.
Despite the devastating blow of their attacks, not a single inch of the altar’s boundary was damaged at all.
“I told you earlier. There’s no way you’re breaking through this boundary.”
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal said.
“What if I’m the one doing it?”
An indifferent voice rang out.
It was Chu Kuangren.
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal froze. As he looked at Chu Kuangren whose soul energy was being refined, he could not help but sneer. “Chu Kuangren, don’t you understand the gravity of the situation you’re in? I can’t believe you’re thinking about destroying this enchanted boundary.”
“Heh! Now, who told you there’s only one of me?”
Not to mention the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal, even Jian Sanjue and the others were stunned.
‘What does he mean?’
“Hmph. Chu Kuangren, I’m sure you’re not thinking straight, seeing that your soul energy has almost been fully refined. After all, everyone only has one soul. What are you going to say next? That you’ve had two souls all this while?” The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal sneered.
“Wrong!”
Chu Kuangren’s lips curled up into a grin. “Not two, but three!”
Boom!
The moment he spoke, the whole Astral Illusory Realm began trembling violently.
Two figures in white sitting on a lotus platform were approaching from afar. There was an incomparably terrifying aura emanating from them!
More importantly, the two of them looked the same. No, not only their appearances, but even their auras were the same!
The two of them were also Chu Kuangren!
“Impossible!”
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal was incredibly dumbfounded.
The other Immortal Progenies were even more confused.
‘There are three Chu Kuangren?’
‘Can somebody tell us what the hell is going on?!’
The two Chu Kuangren glided through the air and arrived above the Soul Refining Altar.
One of them looked at the Chu Kuangren on the altar and laughed. “This is the first time that I’ve seen you in such a sad state, Earth Soul.”
That was true.
The soul that was being refined on the altar was, in fact, one of Chu Kuangren’s three souls, the Human Soul. However, his Heaven Soul — the main soul — had just arrived.
In other words, even if the Earth Soul was completely refined by the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal, it would not impact Chu Kuangren too much. After all, he could regain that lost soul in the future through cultivation.
“If you don’t do anything right now, I’ll disappear for real. Besides, this Pseudo Immortal’s soul is great nourishment for us. Let’s finish him off and devour his soul.”
The Earth Soul said.
“Let’s go!”
The Hell Soul and Heaven Soul chuckled upon hearing that.
After that, the two of them immediately put on a serious look.
The Hell Soul then raised his hand as his Daoist patterns intertwined. The moment his menacing soul energy erupted, he unleashed his Invincible Technique, Inverted Universe!
His fist energy swept across the sky, inverting everything in its path, including the sun, moon, and the very universe around it!
Meanwhile, the Heaven Soul channeled his soul energy and transformed it into a white-jaded sword. While his overwhelming sword qi surged forth, his Grand Emperor Avatar appeared.
It was his Immortal Technique, the Imperial Monarch Sword Art!
“Cosmic Universal Conquest!”
An Invincible Esoteric Art and an overpowering Immortal Technique.
When the two Chu Kuangrens attacked with their most powerful techniques, the might of their attacks caused the whole Astral Illusory Realm to rumble violently.
The Immortal Progenies were all stunned to witness this.
They realized that Chu Kuangren’s Heaven Soul and Hell Soul were way more powerful than his Earth Soul!
It meant that Chu Kuangren was not using his full strength when they were battling earlier. At the very least, his three souls were not fighting them at once just now.
Otherwise, the four of them would have lost in a blink of an eye.
“Three souls? How is this possible?”
“What kind of cultivation technique is this?”
‘He’s a freak!’
The Immortal Progenies could only come to that conclusion as they continued watching in shock.
Once the sword qi and fist energy landed on the altar’s enchanted boundary, which the Immortal Progenies could not even damage earlier, it tore open effortlessly!
With that, the Heaven Soul and Hell Soul dashed into the altar.
“What kind of nasty chains are these? Now shatter!”
The Hell Soul pouted as he looked at the chains binding the Earth Soul. Forming a sword hand sign, he converted his soul energy into a few strands of sword qi and unleashed them at the chains.
The chains broke with a clang!
The Earth Soul was finally free again.
“Alright. It’s time to deal with this old b*st*rd.”
The Earth Soul said.
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal gulped in fear as he looked at Chu Kuangren’s three souls in disbelief. “What kind of monster are you?”
Every cultivator only had one soul.
‘How can anyone have three souls?!’
“Let’s do it.”
Without another word, Chu Kuangren’s three souls attacked!
One soul unleashed the Imperial Monarch Sword Art Immortal Technique, the second soul cast the Esoteric Art Invincible Technique, and the third soul cast the Single Thought Series. All of them attacked the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal without mercy.
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal soon found himself overwhelmed by an endless barrage of attacks that contained terrifyingly powerful soul energy fluctuations.
Soon, he felt that the great plan he had spent many years concocting was getting reduced into nothing but a pipe dream..
