Chapter 361: Chapter 361 - Yuan Wudao Concedes. I Did It, Do You Have Any Objections?

“So, this is the infamous ability of Chu Kuangren.”

“It is indeed terrifying!”

Yuan Wudao looked at Chu Kuangren in concern.

They both had merely exchanged one move, and although Yuan Wudao had exerted more than seventy percent of his strength, he was still blasted several hundred feet away.

On the other hand, Chu Kuangren did not move a single inch.

Evidently, he had not used much of his power.

Could it be that he had used only fifty percent of his power? Or perhaps only thirty percent?

No matter the answer, Yuan Wudao could only grudgingly accept that Chu Kuangren’s power was way above his.

“Chu Kuangren, this business trip of ours only concerns the School of White Lotus. I believe it has nothing to do with you,” Yuan Wuhan said firmly.

“Yet, you’ve invited someone from the Underworld Palace here. Heh, there’s nothing to discuss.” Chu Kuangren sneered.

He was not fond of the Underworld Palace.

That orthodoxy was nothing but a troublemaker for Chu Kuangren. They had even planted a spy within the Black Heaven Sect!

Now that Chu Kuangren had finally met them, how could he resist making a move?

Chu Kuangren began to channel his spiritual energy.

“Damn it, Chu Kuangren. You’re way too unreasonable!”

Yuan Wuhan was furious.

“That’s hilarious! Since when did the cultivators of demonic Dao talk about reason? Screw off!” Chu Kuangren hurled a palm technique outward.

Then, he unleashed an even magnificent stream of Buddhist Light that manifested into a majestic golden palm.

This attack was packed with boundless destructive energy.

Yuan Wudao retaliated by letting out a terrorizing surge of Daoist Rhymes, its shadowy darkness propelling upwards.

It was the demonic qi of the underworld!

Despite its name, the word ‘demonic Dao’ was coined as a reference to its cultivator’s behavior. Fundamentally, the spiritual energies they used were typically no different from any common cultivation techniques.

However, such demonic qi was a far rarer occurrence to witness.

Yuan Wudao unleashed his palm technique, releasing surges of freezing destructive demonic qi into his surroundings that covered the hall in a layer of frost.

Then, the demonic qi transformed into a black skull that charged towards the golden palm.

Almost like slicing through a piece of butter, the golden palm easily shattered the skull, and its remaining energy immediately blasted Yuan Wudao out the hall.

Despite that, the golden palm continued to charge forward, and eventually, it gripped King Yanluo in it.

Without saying anything, Chu Kuangren tightened the palm’s grip, immediately reducing his target into a mist of blood.

Yuan Wudao’s seething anger had reached its peak.

“Chu Kuangren, that’s too much!”

Channeling his demonic qi, dark clouds immediately covered the sky as dozens of black skulls eventually conjured from the clouds, forming an eerie sight for all to see.

“You were the one who brought someone from the Underworld Palace to cause trouble here. Who’s too much now?!” Chu Kuangren snarked coldly.

Chu Kuangren simply took a step forward and a boundless Buddhist Light dashed upward from Chu Kuangren’s body before it manifested into a Giant Buddha Statue in the air.

The Buddhist Light covered a hundred miles radius and instantly melted the surge of demonic qi like it was snow!

Yuan Wudao’s eyes widened in disbelief.

“Even my demonic qi is no match against his Buddhist Light. Could he be the reincarnation of Buddha?”

“Damn it, it looks like I’m no match for him at all.”

Yuan Wudao looked at Chu Kuangren in fear.

He now understood why his mentor had repeatedly cautioned him to tread lightly around Chu Kuangren.

Chu Kuangren was a far more imposing threat than the other empyrean walkers!

Just his Buddhist Light was enough to destroy his demonic qi!

“Chu Kuangren, I concede defeat.”

Before the battle could even begin, Yuan Wudao gritted his teeth and retracted his demonic qi. Suddenly, the sky was clear.

Chu Kuangren was very surprised at such a gesture as he did not expect Yuan Wudao to put down his pride.

The Buddhist Light subsequently vanished.

“Leave, or else I’ll show you to the door.”

Yuan Wudao took a deep breath and walked away in shame.

“Master, are you letting him off the hook that easily?”

Lan Yu asked in confusion.

“There are so few in Firmament Star who are fluent in the way of demonic qi. Perhaps he could be of some use to us in the future.” Chu Kuangren said as he stroked his chin.

Demonic qi was an essential component of authentic demonic cultivation, and in the entire Firmament Star, it was rare to find its resource. After all, this was not the Underworld they were living in.

So where did Yuan Wudao’s demonic qi come from?!

Chu Kuangren felt that there was more than met the eyes.

After chasing Yuan Wudao away, Chu Kuangren stared at the talon-shaped-nose old man and said, “The Ravenblade Sage died without his body intact. He’s nothing but ash now.”

“What?!”

“Who did this?!”

The old man was furious. The Sage’s body that he intended to bring home as a sacrificial offering was gone!

“I did it. Do you have any objections?” Chu Kuangren said.

“Um…”

The talon-shaped-nose old man was speechless.

Chu Kuangren did it.

If Chu Kuangren did it, what else could he say?

He could not even pick a fight with Chu Kuangren!

Although the old man did not think himself weak, it was a joke for him to get himself into a battle with Chu Kuangren. At most, he would only survive a few attacks.

It was no different from seeking death!

“Is there anything you need?”

“No, not anymore.”

The old man could only leave empty-handed.

Watching at his departing figure, Chu Kuangren laughed and said, “What a joke! He actually came this far just for a corpse.”

“He intends to bring it home as an offering,” Immemorial Sage said.

She proceeded to narrate the entire story of the talon-shaped-nose old man.

Immemorial Sage’s sister was once married at sea and ended up as a sacrificial offering for the Serpent Deity. As such, she was familiar with some of the affairs.

“The Serpent Deity wields significant influence in the Thirty-Six Oceanic Islands because without it the islands would not be where they are today. Once in every decade, the island residents would always contribute sacrificial offerings to the Serpent Deity. As a result, countless lives have been lost.”

“Even so, the Thirty-Six Oceanic Islands still worship it like a God. It’s a rather unfortunate situation.” Immemorial Sage sighed and said.

At that, Chu Kuangren realized that there was a resemblance between the Thirty-Six Oceanic Islands and the Nine Head Clan, for they both worshipped a serpent lifeform as a deity.

Could it be that this Serpent Deity was also a Nine-Headed Snakelet?!

Chu Kuangren shook his head, putting away this illogical thought.

The Nine-Headed Snakelet was a beast that dated back to ancient times. It would take a miracle for Chu Kuangren to encounter two of them within such a short timespan.

“If there’s a chance, I’d love to check out this oceanic Serpent Deity for myself.” Chu Kuangren smiled. Surely, the Serpent Deity must at least be in the Sage Ruler cultivation realm for it to be worshipped by the islands.

The Sage Ruler level was the peak of all Sage levels.

In an era with no Emperors, Sage Rulers represented one of the strongest forces that existed in this world.

It would be hard even for Chu Kuangren to face a Sage Ruler in a battle at this stage. However, if they did fight, he still stood a chance of winning against a Sage Ruler.

After all, he had many tricks up his sleeves.

…

“Damn it, damn it!”

“Never did I imagine that Chu Kuangren would just appear out of nowhere! Now that I can’t get my hands on the three-headed hound’s body, I need to find another way.”

Yuan Wudao left the School of White Lotus in frustration.

Then, Yuan Wudao thought of something. “I heard that there’s a Demonic Well in the Winged Human Tribe’s territory. Perhaps I could try my luck there.”

It was not long before his footstep came to an abrupt halt. “How could I forget? The lady that accompanies Chu Kuangren belongs to the Winged Human Tribe. If something happens to them, I will likely cross paths with Chu Kuangren again.”

“F*ck, why is Chu Kuangren everywhere?”

Yuan Wudao was now helpless.
