Chapter 189: The Sword Qi Clones, The Godly Phoenix's Birth, A Scene That's A Grand Sight To Behold
"If you had just stayed put like good children, I wouldn't even have bothered to deal with you. But now, wanting to touch my child will be instant death for you."
Chu Kuangren spoke emotionlessly.
Beside him, the Descendant Self Sword, who had been sitting quietly in the dirt, shot out a sword ray at one of the beasts.
The beast was rendered defenseless against the sword ray, and with a sound of a tear, the beast was sliced in half immediately.
"Charge! Do not be afraid. It's simply one human."
"We can evolve once we devour that ancient energy! All we need to do is get rid of the nuisance before us!"
"Die!"
None of the beasts wanted to give up on the great Opportunity of Fortune to consume the Godly Phoenix.
The giant python charged in first with open jaws, its throat emitting a hot glow before it spitted out molten lava.
Chu Kuangren raised his palm, and the majestic Daoist Rhyme in the form of a Godly Mountain burst forth with a loud bang.
The molten lava washed away as the force of the Godly Mountain landed directly on the giant python's head and shattered half of it.
"Die!" The giant ape leaped into the air and with his hand clenched into a fist, he charged at Chu Kuangren like a shooting star.
"Insolent."
Chu Kuangren said monotonously. He simply flicked his hand, and the giant ape was abruptly slapped into a forest ten thousand feet away.
However, no matter how much Chu Kuangren showed them that he was not a force to be messed with, the beasts had already given into the allure of the Godly Phoenix Egg's energy. One after another, they blindly charged at him with hungry eyes only to drop like flies at his feet.
"I suppose this is the perfect time to test out the Sword Qi Transformation."
Chu Kuangren muttered under his breath.
A powerful Daoist Rhyme suddenly erupted around him, and large amounts of sword qi weaved together to form a human figure in the air.
The figure looked exactly like him.
Some of the beasts were stunned.
What kind of trick was this?
Unfortunately, the real shocker was yet to come.
The sword qi surrounding Chu Kuangren swirled. One became two, two became four — suddenly, there were four more Chu Kuangrens. Five when you included the real one!
Each one of the clones emanated with the same terrifying Sword-based Daoist Rhyme and the beasts had no idea which was the real body.
"Vanquish these monsters."
Chu Kuangren's main body spoke indifferently.
The four sword qi clones charged in different directions with swords in hand, all created by condensed sword qi. Their blades danced around, beheading all the beasts until only their souls remained.
Chu Kuangren walked over to a large rock and sat down once he wiped away some ash. He then watched the massacre with a hand on his chin.
"The sword qi clones' abilities are based on the sword qi's power. With my current level of mastery of this technique, the clones should have an eighth of my power."
"The higher the numbers, the more spread out the sword qi is, and the clones will become less powerful. So with four sword qi clones, each of them has half of my power. That's more than enough to deal with these beasts."
Chu Kuangren nodded happily at his clones' performance.
The Mindful Emperor's Sword Qi Transformation was quite frightening. If he gained full insight on the technique with a cultivation base below the Emperor Realm, he could create a clone with the exact power level as his.
Not to mention that the clones could take on different forms, such as beasts and other people.
It would not be called the Sword Qi Transformation if it could not even transform at will.
The faceless swordsmen and beasts he saw in the Sword Gauntlet were also created by the Sword Qi Transformation.
"Roar!"
With a growl, a tiger-like beast covered in jet-black scales lunged at a clone.
The sword qi clone struck back with a blast of sword qi and sent the tiger beast flying, but it could not kill the tiger beast.
"The scales on my body are the hardest in the world! Your sword qi won't make a dent in it!" The tiger beast growled at the sword qi clone angrily.
However, the clone did not possess emotions, so his face remained unfazed.
Not far away, Chu Kuangren witnessed the situation unfold. He stroked his chin in contemplation before taking out the Sacred Emerald Sword Case.
He tapped the sword case, and it slowly opened. A jet-black longsword flew out, zooming past all the other beasts to appear in front of the sword qi clone.
It was the Troop-Breaker Ominous Sword!
The clone grabbed the Troop-Breaker, infusing it with its sword qi. The energy grew fiercer and intensified the clone's combat strength.
"What?!"
The tiger beast's eyes widened in shock.
Not only was he able to clone himself, but his clones could also wield weapons?!
One glance was enough to see how insanely powerful the weapon was.
The man was shamelessly messing with him!
However, the sword qi clone did not hesitate to strike once the Troop-Breaker was in its hands. With this Troop-Breaker, the tiger beast's scales were no longer an issue as it tore apart easily.
In a few more strikes, the tiger beast perished.
In the distance, Chu Kuangren tapped the sword case a few more times, and three more treasured swords flew out, zooming towards the other three sword qi clones.
Every sword in the sword case was a treasured weapon that countless sword cultivators dreamed of owning. Now in the hands of the clones, the swords' sword qi shone through and made the massacre more efficient.
"The Sacred Emerald Sword Case and sword qi clones are a perfect match!"
Chu Kuangren figured that if he had enough treasured swords in the future, he could create an army of eighty sword qi clones, each with a supreme or sacred sword in hand. That would be a grand sight to behold!
Chu Kuangren was not joking about it.
If he wanted swords, he could just go to the Black Heaven Sect's Sword Mountain and take it. He did not even need to go to Sword Prayer City to ask for people to forge it.
The four sword qi clones and four treasured swords looked like four unstoppable killing gods as the hoard of beasts dropped like flies.
Soon enough, the area was littered with corpses of various beasts.
The air was filled with the pungent stench of blood and violent energies that raged around. The area was a mess.
Upon noticing it, Chu Kuangren raised his hand to cast Gluttonous Devouring Technique, sucking in all the corpses into the Avarice dimension to convert them into raw spiritual power.
The beasts' blood and flesh essences were as good as a few Honorable Supremes, and it was enough to give Chu Kuangren's cultivation base a huge boost.
Suddenly, the whole volcano shook.
Within the volcanic crater, a horrifying Daoist Rhyme emanated out, and as if the surviving beasts had felt something, pure panic flashed in their eyes.
A surge of aura from an ancient bloodline had everyone crawling on the ground, trembling from the pressure.
"Squak..."
A sharp roar burst from the volcanic crater and pierced the skies.
Following that, a blood-red Godly Phoenix burst out from the volcano to soar in the sky with a fiery glow.
Surges of Daoist Rhymes pierced the heavens and shook the earth.
A chicken's head, a swallow's jaw, a snake's neck, a turtle's back, a fish's tail...
Such is the image of the legendary Godly Phoenix.
The instant the Godly Phoenix soared through the sky, all the birds and beasts within the Firmament Star let out a long howl in the direction of the Godly Phoenix as if they were celebrating the birth of a divine beast.
At this moment, millions of birds faced the Godly Phoenix!
At this moment, heaven and earth congratulated them!
Chu Kuangren gazed at the Godly Phoenix and could not help but gasp. "The little guy finally hatched."
He let out a low whistle. "As expected of a divine beast. It truly is a grand sight to behold."
