Slumbering Sword Ocean, Holy City, Golden Ridge Temple, and Holy Divine Fire Cult were all destroyed. The news of all four immortal orthodoxiesâ demise spread throughout Planquilon Immortal World like wildfire.
Chu Kuangrenâs notoriety shook the entire Immortal World for quite some time.
Not one but four immortal orthodoxies were destroyed in his hands!
In just three short days, Chu Kuangren had successively destroyed four immortal orthodoxies. The incident shook countless people.
âBrutal! Heâs mercilessâ!
âFour immortal orthodoxies gone, just like that. Chu Kuangren really did it this time. Heâs a crazy devil.â
âNo one would want to be on his bad side from now on.â
The entire Immortal World trembled at the mention of Chu Kuangrenâs name.
On the other hand, the one who put the entire world through turmoil finally returned to Hundred Academy to prepare for his breakthrough into an Immortal.
The Sword Crown also went into closed-door meditation, trying to break through into the Earthen Immortal Realm.
Lan Yu and Lil Fox were also busy with their own cultivation.
Time flew by quickly. It seemed like the process of breaking through to an Immortal was much more difficult than he thought.
Maybe it was because of the different source energies within him.
In the whole year that Chu Kuangren was in closed-door meditation, many things happened in the outside world.
For one, Yuan Xu, the Fated One of the Great Yuan Divine Dynasty, got the attention of an ancient immortal orthodoxy, the Holy Judgement Sect, and joined the sect as one of their Daoists.
The other Fated One, Lin Yan, also made a name for himself. After the Holy Divine Fire Cult was destroyed, he went on training around Planquilon Immortal World, and with his outstanding courage and luck, he swiftly rose to the spotlight.
Rumor had it that Lin Yan mastered a set of pill refinement techniques. With his alchemy mastery, he was given the VIP treatment and admired by many wherever he went.
Shang Honghua and Lan Yu also gained a reputation for themselves, and as their reputation grew, they were known by the masses as two of Planquilon Immortal Worldâs Four Beauties.
Lately, another huge piece of news reached the ear of the masses.
The Fated One of Divine Dragon Island, the Golden Dragon Young Master, successfully went through the Three Disaster Nine Dooms and became an Immortal.
The news shook the world quite a bit.
Although the Golden Dragon Young Master rarely showed himself in public, given his strength, one could only imagine how powerful he was.
The Golden Dragon Young Master of Divine Dragon Island was at least a King Immortal Progeny and a Fated One!
If he could break through to become an Immortal, how powerful was he really?
Quite a number of people even started to compare him to Chu Kuangren, who rocked the world with his notoriety a year ago. They were curious who would be stronger.
Some said it would be Chu Kuangren. After all, he had killed tens of Immortals before. His combat strength was strong, and the entire Immortal World had seen it with their own eyes.
However, some said it should be the Golden Dragon Young Master because of the sayings about Chu Kuangren forcefully pushing himself to the Immortal Realm with some hidden technique. Since he did not go through the traditional Three Disasters Nine Dooms trials, he could not be considered an Immortal.
The Golden Dragon Young Master, however, was a genuine Immortal!
Discussions were heated for quite a while. Both sides were confident in their believes, and neither side could convince the other. Hence, there was no exact answer to the argument.
After the Golden Dragon Young Master became an Immortal, another explosive news followed and shook the world before it had the chance to settle down.
It was the union between Divine Dragon Island and Sycamore Mountain.
On the groomâs side was the famous Fated One, the newly ascended Immortal Golden Dragon Young Master, who was considered the rising star of the Immortal World.
The brideâs side would be the Sycamore Mountainâs Phoenix Maiden.
The union between the two strongest Yokai Tribes shook the world, no less than Chu Kuangrenâs infamous battle back then.
A lot was involved in the marriage.
Meanwhile, in Sycamore Mountainâ¦
âI donât want to get married!â
A girl was throwing a tantrum before the two rulers of Sycamore Mountain.
The rulers were a couple, the strongest Daoist companion in Sycamore Mountain.
âFeng Hong, thisâ¦â
âMy surname is Chu!â the girl said firmly.
The handsome man of the couple frowned at the girl. A hint of annoyance flashed over his eyes as he said, âYou are a Godly Phoenix. Your surname should be Feng!â
âItâs Chu!â Chu Hong insisted.
âOkay fine, Chu Hong. This isnât childâs play. The Golden Dragon Young Master is the most outstanding Dragon Bachelor of the younger generations in Divine Dragon Island, and heâs also a Fated One. Apparently, he is on the verge of evolving into a pure-blooded Dragon, and you are also a pure-blooded Godly Phoenix. The union between you and him will only benefit us allâ¦â At the side, a lady in a traditional outfit who was the Huang Mountain Ruler tried to persuade Chu Hong.
âNo, I said I donât want to marry him!â
âThis isnât your decision to make,â the Feng Mountain Ruler said coldly.
âYouâ¦â Chu Hong was furious but helpless against it.
Then, her figure transformed into a ray of light that dashed into the distance, wanting to leave Sycamore Mountain.
However, before she could fly far, a red light shrouded the sky and stopped her.
âItâs futile. The whole mountain is isolated by the Flame Divide Enchanted Boundary. Without my permission, you canât leave the mountain,â the Feng Mountain Ruler said.
âEven if you imprison me here, I will not marry the Golden Dragon Young Master!â
âChu Hong. We brought you back to Sycamore Mountain and awoke your pure-blooded Godly Phoenix bloodline. We even made you a Phoenix Maiden. We just want you to do something for Sycamore Mountain, and you are declining it?â the Feng Mountain Ruler asked.
âIâm grateful for what you guys have done for me, and Iâm willing to do whatever to repay Sycamore Mountain, but not this,â Chu Hong
said.
She had never seen the Golden Dragon Young Master, yet the rulers wanted her to marry him. It would be more depressing than killing her on the spot.
âYouâ¦â The Feng Mountain Ruler sounded furious. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âMy dear, let me talk to her,â the Huang Mountain Ruler said.
âIâve invited the Golden Dragon Young Master to Sycamore Mountain. Why donât you spend some time with him first? If you both are not for each other, weâll discuss it then.â
âI donât care. I wonât marry him.â Chu Hong took a deep breath and left.
A hint of coldness appeared in the Feng Mountain Rulerâs eyes. He said, âSheâs not a Godly Phoenix from Sycamore Mountain, hence this disobedience. No matter what she says, the union with Divine Dragon Island must happen.â
âMy dear, are you really doing this?â Huang Mountain Ruler sounded helpless.
âDivine Dragon Island has developed rapidly in the past ten thousand years, and outstanding Dragon Bachelors are appearing one after another. Before we know it, they have surpassed us, Sycamore Mountain. With the Fated One on their side now, itâs not an exaggeration to say that the heavens sided with the dragons.â
The Feng Mountain Ruler sighed and added, âDonât forget about the Honorable Yokai Hall as well. With the Yokai Rulerâs lead, I have a feeling that heâs trying to conquer the whole Yokai Tribe. Remember they caught Qing Feng a while ago? Do you know what that means? It means they already have their eyes on us, on Sycamore Mountain.
âSycamore Mountain is in an awkward situation now. If we donât team up with Divine Dragon Island, in time, the Honorable Yokai Hall will definitely take over Sycamore Mountain.â
Upon hearing her husbandâs words, the Huang Mountain Ruler became afraid as well. âFortunately, Qing Feng managed to return safely with Chu Kuangrenâs help, and he even awoke her Azure Phoenix bloodline. Itâs definitely something good among the misfortunes.â
âBut Chu Kuangren has also killed one of our Phoenix Bachelors,â Feng Mountain Ruler grunted.
âThe Azure Phoenix has clairvoyant abilities, and Qing Feng said that the opportunity to turn Sycamore Mountain for the better is with Chu Hong. Are you really going to marry her off?â
âDonât forget that when Qing Feng said Chu Hong was the opportunity, the Divine Dragon Island came proposing. In my opinion, the opportunity must refer to the union between Chu Hong and the Golden Dragon Young Master. Until then, with the combined powers of Divine Dragon Island and Sycamore Mountain, we will assist the Golden Dragon Young Master to become the Heavenly Champion,â the Feng Mountain Ruler said.
