Chapter 481: Chapter 481 - Do You Think I Can Be Pushed Around? Battling The Nether Abyss Valley

Chu Kuangren and the Godly Phoenix descended upon the Nether Abyss Valley, bringing with them a typhoon of oppressive aura that swept across the region.

The Boundary Emperors of the Nether Abyss Valley were surprised, to say the least.

As Chu Kuangren set his eyes upon Bai Liyin’s last spiritual body, a black chain appeared in his hands. It was none other than the Soul Retriever — a tool Chu Kuangren had not used for a while.

The Soul Retriever was launched outward at lightning speed, which instantly ensnared Bai Liyin’s spiritual body before Chu Kuangren pulled the chain towards him. Like a dog with a leash around its neck, the Boundary Emperor had no means of escaping.

It was then when the Nether Abyss Valley Lord finally appeared.

He stared at Chu Kuangren and said, “Brother Chu, what has the Nether Abyss Valley ever done to you? Why are you always against us?”

Chu Kuangren was surprised to hear the Nether Abyss Valley Lord’s voice. As such, he chuckled lightly and said, “I recognize your voice. You’re the person who stopped me from killing Boundary Emperor Wuyue at the Heavenly Golden Palace. It looks like I’ve come to the right place.”

“Valley Lord, save me. Save me!” Bai Liyin screamed desperately when he saw the Nether Abyss Valley Lord, who was Bai Liyin’s last chance at survival.

Chu Kuangren immediately pulled onto the chain, releasing a burst of unbearably chilling energy that made Bai Liyin, a Boundary Emperor, tremble uncontrollably.

The other observing Boundary Emperors began to worry.

“Although the chain is only a Sage Ruler Weapon, it’s designed specifically to target the soul. This makes it a frightening weapon.”

“Seeing that Bai Liyin is now nothing but a soul, he’s indefensible against the chain.”

The Nether Abyss Valley Lord grimaced as he witnessed Bai Liyin’s miserable state. “Chu Kuangren, what exactly do you want?!”

“What do I want?”

Chu Kuangren frowned before he sneered. “That’s a question I ought to pose to the Nether Abyss Valley. First, Boundary Emperor Wuyue tried to stop me from destroying the Heavenly Golden Palace, and now this bastard tried to steal my Godly Phoenix while she was in Nirvana. You dare ask me what I want?!”

“The real question is what does the Nether Abyss Valley want? Do you think that I, Chu Kuangren, can just be pushed around like that?!”

Chu Kuangren’s tone was devoid of any semblance of warmth and friendliness. As his aura rose its maximum intensity, the sky above him darkened, covered by layers of thunderclouds. Just like that, a swarm of terrifying Heavenly Might engulfed the entire Nether Abyss Valley.

It was as if Chu Kuangren’s anger had incurred the wrath of the heavens!

Such a technique would make even a Boundary Emperor uneasy.

“You…” The Nether Abyss Valley Lord was speechless.

“What? You have nothing to say now?”

Chu Kuangren said faintly. After that, he mobilized his spiritual energies into the chain to channel the Soul Retriever’s power to its limit. A surge of freezing cold energy swallowed Bai Liyin whole. It was not long before his spiritual body began to break and shattered into pieces.

As a large amount of soul energies released into the surrounding, Chu Kuangren absorbed it all with his Universal Cauldron Physique.

The Nether Abyss Valley Lord turned red from witnessing the scene.

It happened again!

Chu Kuangren had murdered yet another Boundary Emperor of the Nether Abyss Valley before his eyes!

“Chu Kuangren, you leave me no choice!” The Nether Abyss Valley Lord snapped, and his Daoist Rhymes rose with each passing moment. The Valley Lord was one of the world’s most formidable entities. Even within the Nine Heavens, very few apart from the Emperors could rival his power.

Even so, the Valley Lord had his limits, and Chu Kuangren’s repeated humiliation had driven the Valley Lord to his boiling point.

He had long abandoned his thoughts on avoiding confronting Chu Kuangren at all cost.

After all, Chu Kuangren was already knocking on his door.

“I’ve warned you when you tried to stop me from killing Boundary Emperor Wuyue, that if you wish to stay alive, you better not let me find out where you are! Or else, I’ll come and kill you!” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Chu Kuangren chuckled. “I’m a man of my words. Look at me. I’m here now!”

“If that’s the case, then be my guest!”

The Nether Abyss Valley Lord roared, unleashing a raging tirade of his Boundary Emperor Daoist Rhymes that swarmed towards Chu Kuangren like a violent torrent.

Instead of retreating, Chu Kuangren retaliated with his own Daoist Rhymes!

It was the Heavenly Punishment Daoist Rhymes!

No Daoist Rhymes in this world could overpower it.

“The Valley Lord has attacked. It’s been years since I last saw him in a battle.”

“He’s a Supreme Sage? I wonder how capable he is now…”

The Boundary Emperors of the Nether Abyss Valley conversed.

However, none of them participated in the battle.

Despite the Nether Abyss Valley Lord’s title, his status was not significantly superior to the other Boundary Emperors.

Strictly speaking, he was just the owner of the Nether Abyss Valley, but he did not rule over the other Boundary Emperors.

One could compare the Nether Abyss Valley Lord to a hotelier, and the Boundary Emperors who resided in this region to his guests.

In return, the Boundary Emperors would contribute many resources to the Valley Lord for the tenure.

As the owner of this land, the Nether Abyss Valley Lord would certainly be enraged if his guests were murdered. However, he was not sincere in avenging their deaths. This was just the Valley Lord’s outlet of redeeming himself from the humiliation he suffered.

Since he was aware of Chu Kuangren’s unprecedented abilities, the Nether Abyss Valley Lord knew that he must tread lightly and not treat Chu Kuangren as just another ordinary Sage. He withdrew a dark crimson longsword. Its blade was coated with a layer of delicate etches that resembled a body of dragon scales.

The sword emitted a surge of rage qi that was almost tangible.

“This is the Bloodtinge Dragonscale Sword, once stained with the blood of a true dragon. A long time ago, I slew multiple formidable opponents with this sword and infused their rage qi into this weapon. So although it’s only a Boundary Emperor Weapon, my contribution has made it a weapon that’s even more powerful than a true Emperor Weapon.”

The Nether Abyss Valley Lord said proudly as he wielded the Bloodtinge Bloodscale Sword.

“Well, have you seen a true Emperor Weapon?”

Chu Kuangren said faintly as he put away the Soul Retriever. With a lift of his hand, a golden trident appeared in the air and unleashed a surge of magnificent Emperor Daoist Rhymes.

The Emperor Weapon, Empyrean Neptune’s Trident Halberd, had reappeared!

Chu Kuangren’s current cultivation level could now allow him to draw an even greater power from the Empyrean Neptune’s Trident Halberd. With the halberd in hand, Chu Kuangren was seemingly transformed into an Emperor who had control over the seas. Suddenly, a large amount of torrential force swarmed the Nether Abyss Valley.

The observers could almost hear the sound of a tsunami.

No.

It was not ‘almost’.

They could actually see a boundless amount of torrential force appearing out of thin air!

Up in the sky, thunder roared before a storm poured.

In a split second, the heavy shower flooded almost half of the Nether Abyss Valley, turning many of its caves into a sunken kingdom!

“Come, I shall let you witness the true power of an Emperor Weapon!”

Chu Kuangren gripped onto the Empyrean Neptune’s Trident Halberd tightly and slammed it into the ground.

The deafening roar of a tsunami unfolded as its boundless torrential force surrounded the weapon. It was as if Chu Kuangren had launched an entire ocean toward the Nether Abyss Valley Lord.

Startled, the Nether Abyss Valley Lord immediately blocked Chu Kuangren’s attack with his sword!

The Empyrean Neptune’s Trident Halberd and the Bloodtinge Dragonscale Sword let out a blaring explosion, unleashing a frightening amount of strength qi.

All the Nether Abyss Valley Lord could feel was the weight of an unstoppable force crushing on him. The sheer force of Chu Kuangren’s attack had almost torn off his arm, and his Bloodtinge Dragonscale Sword was close to slipping away from his hand.

Just one halberd attack was almost enough for the Nether Abyss Valley Lord to succumb to defeat.
