Chu Kuangren had once killed the Underworld God when he was the Human King.
He had also absorbed and refined his divine fragment as well.
However, the Underworld God did not know this. From his perspective, the Human King was the Human King, and Chu Kuangren was Chu Kuangren. They were two separate people.
Even in the face of death, he would never bring himself to think that the two of them were the same person.
When he heard Chu Kuangren say that he had killed him before, the Underworld God could not help but feel stunned for a moment. After that, he sneered. “Chu Kuangren, what you have killed back then was only the willpower thought form of my divine power. Bold of you to even compare it to my true form itself!
“This time, I’ll show you the true power of a Venerable God.”
Underworld God roared, and divine power surged out wildly, transforming into a huge dark door in the void that had the carvings of various Ashuran evil spirits.
That was Underworld God’s divine ability, the Gate of the Underworld
The gate opened, and countless Ashuran demons poured out from it.
“This d*mn door again!”
Chu Kuangren pursed his lips. There was no movement on the Descendant Self Sword strapped to his waist. However, the Emperor qi behind him flowed and manifested into a domineering and colorful Almighty Avatar.
Now that he was in the Daoist Celestial Realm, his Dao had also been elevated to Prominent-quality Dao. Hence, his power was no longer the same as before when activating the Almighty Avatar. The difference was like a baby versus a full-fledged adult.
“What in the world?!”
Underworld God was baffled.
The power of this Almighty Avatar was so terrifying that it made the Venerable God feel a slight tingling in his scalp.
It had not even been long. How did this guy manage to upgrade his powers to this point?
Previously, when he encountered Chu Kuangren in his thought form, the latter had just become an Emperor.
Now, he has directly crossed the Heavenly Imperial Realm and was a Daoist Celestial!
For the others, their improvements could be regarded as progression.
However, he felt that what happened to Chu Kuangren was but an evolution instead!
“Also, why is the energy exuded from this Dao so familiar?”
Underworld God gulped nervously.
He could feel a hint of familiar energy from Chu Kuangren’s Dao, which made him recall a nightmare that was lingering in the depths of his memory!
The Human King!
This man’s Dao was the same as that of the Human King!
“This is impossible. How can there be two exactly the same Dao in this world? What is your relationship to the Human King?!”
Underworld God was a little frightened. He did not know whether he was frightened by Chu Kuangren’s strength or because Chu Kuangren’s Dao gad flipped open the floodgates of fear in his heart.
“If I tell you that I’m the Human King, will you believe me?”
Chu Kuangren chuckled.
Before going to the archaic ancient times, his Invincible Dao was only at the quality of Epic.
However, in the long river of time, he witnessed the development of the human race and understood the true meaning of self-improvement and invincibility. From there, his Dao sublimated to a greater form.
A Dao that was symbolic of self-improvement and invincibility!
This was the Dao of Chu Kuangren and the Human King!
“Impossible. This is impossible. That man is long dead …”
Underworld God kept shaking his head like he had lost his mind. He roared with rage and activated the power of his soul. Thousands of Ashura demons and evil spirits then cascaded out and charged towards Chu Kuangren.
“Break!”
Chu Kuangren let out a cry, and the Almighty Avatar threw a punch. The fist energy radiated with a burst of vibrant hues, containing the power of various Daoist Physiques.
In the blink of an eye, thousands of Ashura demons and evil spirits were swept away by the punch blast, and the mighty fist slammed into the Gate of the Underworld.
Just one punch was enough to disintegrate the Gate of the Underworld. It was reduced into countless fragments, and the Underworld God was blasted into the air.
Spit…
The Underworld God spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was full of horror.
“Go to hell!”
“Ethereal Whispers!”
The Underworld God had now gone berserk as he pushed his divine power to the extreme.
With the Underworld God’s second divine ability unleashed, strange syllables suddenly sounded in the void, affecting Chu Kuangren’s soul energy.
However, this divine ability was still useless against Chu Kuangren.
To the Underworld God, Chu Kuangren was like his kryptonite.
They had fought several times. However, the Underworld God’s abilities were completely restricted by Chu Kuangren every time, rendering him absolutely no room for resistance at all.
The fact that a great Venerable God like him had to stoop this low made him feel like he had been ridiculed.
“Slumbering Emperor Coffin, come to me!”
Underworld God roared.
The Slumbering Emperor Coffin that had been sent flying earlier suddenly flew back. The coffin opened, and a terrifying suction force enveloped Chu Kuangren.
Chu Kuangren did not resist and was sucked in straight away.
“Haha, my Slumbering Emperor coffin is capable of refining all things. Even gods who are stronger than me will not escape death once they’re inside!
“Boy, may you die a gruesome death inside with Chaos Daoist Celestial!”
Underworld God felt slightly at ease now, and he could not help but smile. After that, his divine power was continuously injected into the Slumbering Emperor Coffin, pushing its refining power to its limits.
Inside the Slumbering Emperor Coffin.
It was Chu Kuangren’s second time here. Ignoring the refining power that was gushing around him, he took a step out and arrived before the Chaos Daoist Celestial.
The other person’s soul was already very weak, and his flesh was gradually disintegrating due to the refining powered by Underworld God’s divine power.
“After holding out for so long, it seems like I may die here after all.”
Chaos Daoist Celestial sighed gently. If he had not given up his cultivation, he probably could have held on for a few more years.
Nevertheless, he did not regret it. Although he may die, he had put his cultivation to good use, to sculpt an unprecedented genius for the human race!
He believed that in time, that person would be a pillar of the human race!
“I wonder how that boy has grown.”
Chaos Daoist Celestial murmured.
“Lil’ hooligan.”
Just as he was drifting out of consciousness, Chaos Daoist Celestial heard a voice.
Was he hallucinating?
Yes, he must have.
Who but the King would dare to call him a hooligan?
Chaos Daoist Celestial recalled the time when he had not yet embarked on the path of cultivation. He was just a small gangster on the street back then.
Later in life, he marked his eyes on a richly dressed young man on the street and tried to steal that man’s wallet to treat his brother’s illness.
However, he never would have thought that this theft would change his entire life.
He was caught by the man, but the man did not punish him. Instead, the man helped him heal his brother and taught them the methods of cultivation.
He could still remember what that fine man said to him.
“A man should always stand tall in the face of adversities. Lil’ hooligan, you have extraordinary talent. In time, you will definitely be the future of the human race. Quit doing all these deceitful shenanigans on the streets. Don’t you know how shameful that is?”
The man half reprimanded and half encouraged him. Those words made him feel acknowledged for the very first time in his life. Since then, he embarked on a path he had never considered before. Only then did he become the famous Chaos Daoist Celestial of the human race.
It took him some more years before he learned that the young man was the King.
The Human King.
“Hooligan, wake up.”
Chaos Daoist Celestial heard the voice in his ear become clearer and clearer. At the same time, he could feel an invisible force being injected into his body, slowly restoring his consciousness.
D*mn. Who but the King would dare to call him a hooligan?!
Chaos Daoist Celestial gradually woke up and stared at the person in front of him.
“Is that you? Kiddo, why are you here?”
Chaos Daoist Celestial could not help but feel surprised when he saw Chu Kuangren. He even temporarily forgot that this boy had called him a hooligan earlier.
“Kiddo?”
When Chu Kuangren heard how he was referred to, his eyebrows furrowed. Back when he was not a King yet, he would not have minded what the Chaos Daoist Celestial called him.
Yet now, it sounded a little awkward.
Of all humans on the Firmament Star, no one would dare to call him that.
“Forget it.”
Chu Kuangren shook his head, not caring too much about it. “I’ve come here to save you.”
“Save me?”
“That’s right.”
With a flick of Chu Kuangren’s mind power, the crimson-colored pillar of light that was locking Chaos Daoist Celestial’s limbs instantly shattered. Then, he raised his hand and began condensing his Emperor qi.
“Invincible Technique, Inverted Universe!!”
He threw a punch, and the Prominent-grade Esoteric Invincible Technique instantly erupted!
Coupled with the Prominent Emperor qi and the Prominent-quality Dao, the three Prominent-grade powers converge together to form an unprecedented monstrous force!
The fist energy cascaded like starlight and lambasted onto the Slumbering Emperor Coffin!
The Daoist pattern inside the Slumbering Emperor Coffin was instantly smashed to smithereens. Countless cracks appeared on the surface of the entire coffin.. Along with a sudden explosion, the coffin shattered!
