1669 Transforming Various Forms With a Single Slash, Merging Various Intents Into One, the Soul Scouring Technique
Before Chu Kuangren could even feel happy about finally stepping out of the unknown void, he suddenly found a ray of sword ray heading toward him!
The power of that strike was anything but weak. Even an ordinary Trinity Flower Arch Gilded Immortal might not unleash something as powerful as that.
Chu Kuangren looked at his attack with surprise and immediately retaliated. He formed a sword hand sign and released a surge of Immortal Destruction Sword Qi!
When the two sword rays intertwined, the Immortal Destruction Sword Qi shattered its opponent’s sword ray. The residual power of the sword qi was enough to make the purple-robed young man’s expression sink and send him flying backward.
He looked at Chu Kuangren with shock. “This sword qi and sword technique… When did the Spiritual Sword Tribe have someone like you?”
‘The Spiritual Sword Tribe? Well, I’ve never heard of them before.’
Seeing that he was still unclear about the situation he was in, Chu Kuangren did not reply at once.
“No, something is wrong with your aura. You’re not from the Spiritual Sword Tribe!”
The purple-robed young man frowned a little as his suspicions grew.
‘If he’s not from the Spiritual Sword Tribe, how did he appear in the location of my closed-door meditation? Besides, he possesses quite a powerful sword technique and cultivation.’
“Hmph, let’s see how many of my attacks you can take!”
Without a second thought, the purple-robed young man acted. At the end of the day, Chu Kuangren was the one who intruded upon the location of his closed-door meditation.
That was the most serious form of provocation, and only his opponent’s death could quench his rage!
With a twist of his golden longsword’s razor edge, strands of sword qi began to shoot out. Some of the sword qi rumbled like thunder, some of the sword qi burned everything like fire, while some were like water…
His sword qi was ever-changing!
On top of that, every single strand of them contained a surge of Arch Gilded Intent.
“Several Arch Gilded Intent, huh?”
Chu Kuangren’s interest was piqued. This was his first time encountering an opponent who had cultivated various Arch Gilded Intents.
He pointed his sword hand sign out and continuously unleashed his Immortal Destruction Sword Qi, shattering the myriad of incoming attacks with ease.
At that same time, he also managed to understand some tricks behind his opponent’s sword technique.
“Those aren’t various Arch Gilded Intents but a mysterious sword intent instead. You’re using a sword intent to mimic and materialize various natural phenomena, making it appear as if various Arch Gilded Intents are present!”
That was a sword technique that could transform into anything!
Very few cultivators had took that path of Sword Dao. Even Chu Kuangren did not expect to encounter such an opponent at that time.
“Sword Technique, Heavenly Thousand Terrain!”
As the purple-robed young man leaped into the air, waves of sword intent erupted from his body. The Daoist patterns surrounding him intertwined like they were a galaxy of stars.
An attack struck out and evolved into images of various natural phenomena.
Earth, wind, water, fire, Yin, Yang, and even the Five Ways were contained within it. That sword strike was like an attack that descended from the heavens, and its overwhelming power shocked anyone who witnessed it!
Just with that technique, Chu Kuangren knew that the Sword Dao proficiency of that purple-robed young man was ranked number one among the younger generation cultivators he had ever seen.
Even Ye Zhu, the host of the Green Leaf Sword Vision, paled in comparison.
However, it was a shame that Chu Kuangren’s opponent had to be facing him of all people.
“Immortal Destruction!”
Without even unsheathing his sword, Chu Kuangren made a sword hand sign and gathered a spark of sword ray at his fingertips before releasing that attack into the void. At that moment, thousands of Immortal Sparks intertwined to form a massive abd devastating sword shadow!
If the purple-robed young man’s attack could evolve into all natural phenomena, seemingly bringing a new world into view, Chu Kuangren’s attack right now would be the purest form of offense and destruction!
As one attack brought upon the birth of a new world, the other was raining down destruction upon Immortals!
Wherever the sword shadow went, there were conjurations of Immortals, Buddhas, and demons laying dead. It was truly a terrifying landscape!
The moment both sword attacks met, it culminated in a clash of ultimate techniques!
However, the Immortal Destruction Sword Qi went through and destroyed the Thousand Terrain Sword attack, sending the purple-robed young man flying once again.
“Impossible… This is impossible…”
The purple-robed young man looked at Chu Kuangren with terror and disbelief.
Having studied and cultivated the Thousand Terrain Sword Art for thousands of years, he was only one step away from perfecting that technique. How did he get defeated so easily?
To make things worse, he also lost in a battle of Sword Dao, the one thing he was most proud of!
‘Who the hell is this person?!’
The purple-robed young man could not believe it. However, Chu Kuangren did not care about that. His figure disappeared in a flash and appeared instantly before his opponent, where he threw out a terrifying punch!
His Arch Gilded Godly Fist erupted!
The several Arch Gilded Intents in that attack slammed his opponent deeper into the ground!
That punch immediately sent that purple-robed young man into a daze.
He roared with anger and rose into the sky. Bursts of sword qi erupted from his body as he unleashed his full strength without holding back.
“Sword, Fire!”
“Sword, Wind!”
“Sword, Thunder!”
“Sword, Yin Yang!”
Various forms of sword qi were unleashed. All of them came from the same sword intent but was transformed into several different auras heading toward Chu Kuangren without mercy.
Facing that power, Chu Kuangren chuckled. “Transforming various forms with a single slash and merging various intents into one, huh? Let’s see which one of us is stronger then.”
The moment he said that, surge upon surges of Arch Gilded Intent spread from Chu Kuangren, their Immortal Sparks illuminating the sky.
Samsara, Yin Yang, Flame, Windstorm…
Various Arch Gilded Intents soon merged at Chu Kuangren’s fingertips.
By then, the purple-robed young man was dumbfounded. Although his attacks appeared as if they contained various sword intents, they only came from one sword intent which transformed into various natural phenomena.
However, Chu Kuangren’s punch truly contained various Arch Gilded Intents combined!
Besides, was he not a swordsman?
Why did he suddenly switch to using his fist?
Moreover, his first technique was so terrifying!
The purple-robed young man was afraid now, but Chu Kuangren had already unleashed his punch. His attack, which contained various Arch Gilded Intent and Immortal’s Core energy, turned into a gigantic vortex that could devour anything!
The purple-robed young man’s various sword qi was dispelled one before that vortex. There was no way his attacks could resist Chu Kuangren’s attack!
The purple-robed young man was blasted away with blood spurting out from his mouth, and he landed on the ground with a thud.
“It looks like you still have a long way to go with your cultivation.” Chu Kuangren chuckled.
Transforming various forms with a single slash and merging various intents into one were different paths of Dao but were no weaker than one another. However, the purple-robed young man was clearly lacking in his comprehension of Dao.
That was why he lost so terribly.
Besides, Chu Kuangren’s Dao was not even that of merging various intents into one but the even more unique Invincible Self-empowerment Dao.
Chu Kuangren slowly walked toward the purple-robed young man, his gaze gradually turning cold.
No matter the reason, his opponent was undoubtedly trying to kill him, and he would never show mercy to enemies like that.
“What nice timing. I just happened to arrive here, and I’m still a little confused about the current situation. Let’s start with you then.”
A sinister smile appeared on Chu Kuangren’s face.
The purple-robed young man immediately felt a chill run down his spine when he saw Chu Kuangren’s smile, as if he was overcome by horror.
‘What is he going to do?’
Chu Kuangren slowly raised his hand, on which had a vortex vaguely swirling in the middle of his palm. A powerful soul energy fluctuation was coming from within it.
That was the Soul Scouring Technique!
“No, no…”
The purple-robed young man was horrified. However, he still could not prevent his soul from being absorbed into the vortex in Chu Kuangen’s palm.
Countless images soon flooded Chu Kuangren’s mind.
Those were the purple-robed young man’s memories.
He wanted to resist, but since his soul cultivation level was too low compared to Chu Kuangren, there was nothing he could do. Besides, he was also critically injured.
The purple-robed young man could vaguely make out a Soul Flower with thirteen petals as his soul was being absorbed, and he immediately screamed in shock.
“You! You have broken through the Twelfth Grade’s limit! You’re a Taboo!”
The purple-robed young man was now even more shocked.
How could he have expected his opponent to be a rarely-seen Taboo?
When did he anger such a powerful being?
However, before the purple-robed young man could think further, his consciousness gradually faded due to the powerful Soul Scouring power.
Besides, it would be very fortunate for him to survive that ordeal, let alone retain his ability to think.
