High in the air above Terraglyph Planet, Chu Kuangren’s Immortal Consciousness spread throughout the whole planet upon his arrival in search of the Buddhist Sarira’s energy fluctuation.
He did not find any signs of the Buddhist Sarira. However, he sensed some familiar auras first instead.
“It’s the academy’s Heavenly Champions.”
Besides the Buddhist Sarira, many treasures were still waiting to be found on Terraglyph Planet.
Although those treasures were not as valuable as the Buddhist Sarira, many people were still attracted to them. As a result, there were battles to fight over the treasures everywhere.
At that time, somewhere on Terraglyph Planet, the Hundred Academy Heavenly Champions were fighting a bunch of yokai sky-prides over a Yin and Yang ring that was left behind by an Arch Gilded Immortal.
That ring contained items that once belonged to the Arch Gilded Immortal when he was still alive.
“Hand over the Yin and Yang ring, and we’ll spare your lives!” a few yokai cultivators standing opposite Cao Yun said coldly.
Their powerful yokai auras instantly surged everywhere, trapping Cao Yun and the others within it.
“If it’s a fight you want, bring it on! What’s all that nonsense for?” Wang Chentian snorted coldly.
Armed with a spear in hand, his tyrannical aura, which was on par with their enemy, burst forth.
The leader of the yokai cultivators was a White Tiger wild beast.
He compared their strength against their opponents and reckoned they stood a chance of winning. Then, he shot a glance towards the yokai cultivators beside him.
Fight!
Without another word, both sides immediately clashed in battle.
Several Immortal Techniques were unleashed everywhere.
As Cao Yun activated his Golden Rule Order conjuration, his eyes immediately lit up with runic power, which in turn enhanced the power of every single attack he made right after.
Wang Chentian hurled his spear in all directions, his brutal aura filling the air.
“Is that all you got?”
Wang Chentian laughed as he pushed back a yokai cultivator in battle, while the other Hundred Academy Heavenly Champions were also overwhelming their opponents.
“D*mn it. I made the wrong judgment!” The White Tiger sky-pride gritted his teeth.
After that, he looked at a black-robed woman nearby. That woman had a seductive figure and an alluring appearance.
It was as if her every movement was meant to lure and distract her foes.
“Dark Fox Maiden Sage, aren’t you going to help?!” the White Tiger sky-pride yelled.
The Dark Fox Maiden Sage was a top-notch sky-pride. If she took action right then, the yokai cultivators might be able to turn the tide of battle.
However, she only stood there and hesitated a little.
“They’re from the Hundred Academy…”
“If Chu Kuangren learns that I was a part of this battle, I’ll surely meet an awful end.”
The Arch Gilded Immortal’s Yin and Yang ring was indeed a valuable treasure to her.
However, she did not dare to take drastic action.
Chu Kuangren’s impact on her was just too great.
Even if he was not here, she still could not help but tremble at the thought of what he did back then.
‘No. I must not take action.’
The Dark Fox Maiden Sage gritted her teeth and decided to give up on the Arch Gilded Immortal’s Yin and Yang ring, so she quickly stepped back several meters.
Wang Chentian, Cao Yun, and the others were shocked, to say the least.
“It looks like the Dark Fox Maiden Sage has some unknown reason for not fighting.”
“This is fine for us. If she makes a move, it’ll certainly spark more trouble for us. It’s best if she can stay like this.”
The Hundred Academy Heavenly Champions immediately increased their combat strength as they planned to defeat the White Tiger sky-pride and his yokai cultivators in one go.
“D*mn it!”
“Is that d*mn fox really so afraid of Chu Kuangren? Is she so frightened that she doesn’t dare to make a move?!”
The White Tiger sky-pride had an idea why the Dark Fox Maiden Sage was behaving that way.
He never expected Chu Kuangren would have such a great impact on the Dark Fox Maiden Sage.
Even in his absence, she was already afraid to fight.
However, the White Tiger was wrong. He did not understand what Chu Kuangren meant to the Dark Fox Maiden Sage and the Dark Fox Tribe as a whole.
Chu Kuangren might be the key to the Dark Fox Tribe’s future!
“You’ve made a wise choice.”
An indifferent voice suddenly sounded beside the Dark Fox Maiden Sage.
The Dark Fox Maiden Sage shuddered uncontrollably with a look of disbelief on her face. She quickly turned around.
Unbeknownst to her, a white figure was beside her.
That person dressed in white and had long black hair, with an otherworldly temperament.
Although he was just standing there quietly, it seemed like he had become the center of the whole universe as everyone could not help but gaze at him. His presence was so domineering that it scared everyone!
How could she, the Dark Fox Maiden Sage, not sense someone with such a menacing presence?
It meant that he purposely concealed his aura.
“To think that he can creep up on me like this. If he wanted to kill me, I’d be dead by now!”
“He has gotten even more terrifying than two years ago. I’m afraid the rumors that he’s now at the True Immortal Realm are true!”
The Dark Fox Maiden Sage was shocked that beside her was Chu Kuangren and that he had been here for a while now.
However, he just did not show himself.
“You’ve made a wise decision by not joining that bunch. Otherwise, you’ll have turned into a corpse by now,” Chu Kuangren said lightly.
Upon hearing that, the Dark Fox Maiden Sage felt a chill run down her spine, and cold sweat trickled down her forehead.
She did not doubt Chu Kuangren’s words.
If she made the wrong choice just now, she would have been dead by now.
“It’s Chu Kuangren!”
The White Tiger sky-prides, who were fighting Cao Yun and the others, shuddered when they noticed Chu Kuangren.
To most of the yokai cultivators in the Great Ten Thousand Mountains, Chu Kuangren’s name was all too familiar to them.
His name was nothing short of a nightmare!
The moment he appeared, every yokai cultivator present immediately started trembling uncontrollably. Chu Kuangren did not even need to do a thing to them.
Even the White Tiger sky-pride could not help but lose his focus.
“Chu Kuangren is here. Is he really here?!”
“This feeling… Is it fear?!”
The White Tiger sky-pride felt embarrassed.
‘How is this possible?!’
‘He’s just standing there doing nothing, yet why am I feeling so afraid?’
He thought he had improved greatly over the past two years, so he could at least survive in battle against Chu Kuangren, even if he ended up losing in the end.
However, he never expected to be trembling in fear before he could even fight Chu Kuangren.
Many scenes began to unfold inside his mind — scenes of Chu Kuangren at the Great Ten Thousand Mountains and Ancient Heavenly Yokai Cave.
That person’s power alone overwhelmed every single yokai sky-pride in the Great Ten Thousand Mountains until they could not even do anything about it. He had single-handedly humiliated the whole yokai species.
The trauma inflicted by Chu Kuangren upon the younger generation of yokai of the Great Ten Thousand Mountains was just too great!
Meanwhile, Cao Yun, Wang Chentian, and the others soon noticed Chu Kuangren’s presence and the yokai cultivator’s strange behavior following that.
They were surprised
‘What has the Chief done?’
‘Why are the yokai cultivators so afraid of him?’
‘All he’s doing is standing there, yet the morale of the yokai cultivators has been crushed.’
They did not think that the Daoist core of their opponents was weak. Hence, they could only speculate that Chu Kuangren must have done something so terrible that it traumatized the yokai cultivators’ Daoist core.
“Oh well, let’s defeat them first.”
“Ha! Now that the Chief’s here, I must perform well and show him how much I’ve improved.”
Cao Yun, Wang Chentian, and the others immediately attacked.
As for the yokai cultivators, their combat morale had already dwindled because of Chu Kuangren’s arrival. By then, they could no longer put up a fight and soon fell to a disadvantage.
Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren looked at the Dark Fox Maiden Sage and said, “About my offer for the Dark Fox Tribe to consider last time, have they come up with an answer?”
‘It’s here…’
The Dark Fox Maiden Sage took a deep breath.
‘The key turning point of the Dark Fox Tribe’s future is here!’
