The Chaos Lightning Seal was destroyed by the mighty Life and Death Symbol!
As a result, the surrounding void crumbled in its terrifying power. Ming Yifeng’s eyes widened in fear as his expression turned into horror!
Looking at the incoming Life and Death Symbol, he felt himself swallowed by an unprecedented terror as if his life was in Chu Kuangren’s control!
“How is he so powerful?!”
“Is this the power of the true Celestial Demon Physique?!”
Ming Yifeng was horrified. He quickly channeled his Immortal Core energy to its limit, unleashing a powerful burst of Celestial Demon qi from his body no different than a raging tide. His Celestial Demon qi intertwined with the countless Daoist patterns and formed many lightning bolts that were hurled toward the Life and Death Symbol in succession. However, his attacks merely created ripples.
Soon, the seemingly unstoppable Life and Death Symbol landed on his body.
In an instant, Ming Yifeng felt a boundless aura weighing down upon him. To his surprise, his legs turned weak on the spot, and his knees fell to the ground!
Crack, crack…
Cracking sounds sounded from Ming Yifeng’s body like he was a fragile vase.
It felt like if Chu Kuangren exerted a little more force, his body would shatter into pieces.
Upon witnessing that scene, the other Celestial Demon cultivators’ expressions turned horrified.
“He’s too powerful!”
“That’s just one attack, and he has already overpowered Ming Yifeng!”
Eventually, the life and death intent dispersed.
At that moment, Ming Yifeng was certainly not in a good shape. He was kneeling on the ground with his body on the verge of breaking down. His disheveled look was a world of difference compared to what he looked like before the battle.
He looked at Chu Kuangren with fear in his eyes.
He had only witnessed such Celestial Demon power from Jue Wushen, but even Jue Wushen could not overpower him that easily!
The person standing before him was clearly stronger than Jue Wushen!
After all, that person was the host of the true Chaos Celestial Demon Physique and their future Celestial Demon King!
Ming Yifeng took a deep breath, forcing himself to walk to Chu Kuangren. Then, he knelt and bowed down with utmost respect.
“My King, I have committed a grave offense. Please conduct your punishment as you see fit!”
Just like that, a Prodigy like him was kneeling before someone else.
Some sky-prides who did not know what was happening were stunned and in disbelief, but Chu Kuangren was not surprised.
The combat strength he demonstrated already proved him worthy as the future Celestial Demon King.
Although Ming Yifeng was rebellious, the only thing he could do as a Pseudo Celestial Demon cultivator now was to surrender!
If he ever disrespected Chu Kuangren again, it might result in his death.
Even without Chu Kuangren, the other Pseudo Celestial Demon cultivators would end up suppressing him first.
“Stand up,” said Chu Kuangren.
He raised his hand and activated the Life and Death Symbol, turning death into life and vice versa. With the powerful life and death energy injected into Ming Yifeng’s body, his injuries gradually healed!
The combination of might and benevolence displayed by Chu Kuangren made Ming Yifeng even more impressed and convinced.
After that, Chu Kuangren learned a few things from talking with the remaining Pseudo Celestial Demon cultivators.
The Pseudo Celestial Demon cultivators were now very active, building up renown all over the Interstellar Arena.
Their strongest member, Jue Wushen, came across an Opportunity of Fortune a while ago and went into closed-door meditation. Due to that, the Mountain Ghoul Divine Daoist had no one to fear and dared to act recklessly.
“My King, before the official crowning ceremony, we’ll have to wait for Jue Wushen to complete his closed-door meditation. After that, with every Pseudo Celestial Demon cultivator as a witness, you shall display your strength to obtain the recognition of the Celestial Demon Crown and everyone’s acknowledgment.”
The Celestial Demon Crown was an Immortal Weapon created by Xu Wu and a symbol of the ruling King of the Pseudo Celestial Demon Tribe.
Currently, that item was in Xu Wu’s possession and care!
In other words, if Chu Kuangren wanted to be crowned the Celestial Demon King, he must first defeat Jue Wushen in front of everyone and convince them with his strength!
“Jue Wushen and the Celestial Demon Crown, huh? Interesting.”
Chu Kuangren grinned. Now, he was even more excited to meet that person.
…
Meanwhile, somewhere in space.
Ever since they obtained the Divine Flame Map, Fire Boy and Huang Yuyi started their journey in search for divine flames in Interstellar Arena.
However, they were not so lucky.
There were twelve possible divine flame locations inside the Interstellar Arena. However, they had gone to the first three locations and found nothing there.
“D*mn it. Is your Divine Flame Map the real deal or not?!” said Huang Yuyi as she looked at Fire Boy with dissatisfaction.
“There’s no need to hurry. Those places are only three of the twelve possible locations, and there are still nine more places to go. I’m sure we’ll find something.”
The Fire Boy was pretty calm.
Sure enough, upon arriving at the fourth location, they found a divine flame there. It was a divine flame ranked number forty-three on the Divine Fire List.
“This is the Lambent Soul Flame!”
Huang Yuyi looked at the silver-white flame before her and could not help but beam in delight.
The Fire Boy also had a smile on his face.
“Huang Yuyi, you should refine this divine flame first. I’ll stand guard for you,” said Fire Boy.
Huang Yuyi was a little surprised to hear him propose that. “You’re willing to give me this divine flame?”
“You and I are working with the same goal in mind, which is to defeat Chu Kuangren. It doesn’t matter which one of us refines the divine flame,” Fire Boy said sincerely, which made Huang Yuyi doubtful.
‘Is he speaking the truth?’
However, with the divine flame in sight, she could not care less anymore. Would she, a Prodigy, need to worry about the Fire Boy scheming against her?
At that thought, she walked toward the divine flame and activated the Fire Division’s Flame Fusion Technique that the Fire Boy taught her with her Phoenix Flame!
A huge burst of Phoenix Flames gushed out, instantly engulfing the silver-white divine flame.
Half a month later, Huang Yuyi, having successfully refined the divine flame, felt that she had gotten much stronger!
“Nice. The Fire Division’s Flame Fusion Technique really is effective!”
“As long as I continue refining a few more divine flames, I’ll surely surpass Chu Kuangren!” Huang Yuyi thought, and a hint of excitement flashed in her eyes.
“Come, let’s head somewhere else.” Fire Boy said to Huang Yuyi after noticing that she had refined the divine flame.
“Alright!”
Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren, who was hiding in the void, touched his chin with intrigue. “I shall see how far the both of you can go.”
Following that, the Fire Boy and Huang Yuyi set out for the six remaining divine flame locations.
Although they found nothing in two of those locations, the four other locations all contained divine flames, with each being powerful divine flames that were ranked top fifty in the Divine Fire List.
One of the divine flames among the four was even ranked number seventeen.
All of those divine flames were absorbed by Huang Yuyi, who, in turn, became much more powerful.
“I can feel the power coursing within my veins!”
“If I were to fight myself back then, I can surely defeat her within ten moves!”
“I bet I’m close to Chu Kuangren’s level now!” Huang Yuyi said happily.
At that moment, a powerful energy fluctuation suddenly erupted from afar. Some people were battling on an ancient planet far away!
“The eleventh possible divine flame location is on that ancient planet!” said Fire Boy.
With that, the both of them quickly headed toward that ancient planet.
However, they arrived to find a fight breaking out on the possible divine flame location.
In the fight, a female cultivator was battling three male cultivators.
The female cultivator, who was dressed in long black robes, unleashed terrifying bursts of yin qi with every attack, and her strength was no weaker than that of a Prodigy.
Nevertheless, the three male cultivators were quite formidable as well. Each of them was a top-tier sky-pride close to a Prodigy’s level.
