Chapter 2356: Spatial One Overpowered, Ultimate Monarch, One Pierce Versus One Slash
"What happened? What caused the commission?"
On the ninth level of the Void Prison, the Spatial One was interrogating the Space Emperor using Soul Searcher Needles, trying to find vital information from his mind.
However, the commotion from the lower levels disturbed him, and it put a frosty look on his face.
"They still haven't got rid of the one causing the commotion? What is the Warden doing? I think it's time for him to retire," the Spatial One said coldly.
"Bang!"
At that moment, the walls between the eighth and ninth levels collapsed, and a person emerged from the rubble.
Shrouded in glimmering Immortal Sparks, the Spatial One was forced to narrow his eyes.
Then, the person tossed something at the Spatial One.
At a closer look, the Spatial One's eyes widened.
It was the Warden's head!
"I suppose you are the Spatial One?" Chu Kuangren said as he looked at the Spatial One. When he saw the blonde man shackled in chains behind the Spatial One, he was intrigued.
"Lil Ai, analyze."
"Right away."
Lil Ai started to analyze the Space Emperor.
"Master, the purple needles on the Space Emperor's head are related to the soul. It can disrupt and delude one's mind," Lil Ai said.
Chu Kuangren pondered.
Disrupt and delude one's mind?
Was the Spatial One trying to excavate information from the Space Emperor?
Since the Spatial One had come here and done it himself, the information must be vital.
"Chu Kuangren, how dare you kill a Monarch of the Spatial Tribe? You're going to die for this!"
Chu Kuangren no longer tried to hide his identity.
The Spatial One paid close attention to news about Chu Kuangren as well, so he recognized him at first glance.
Without wasting time, he channeled Spatial Daoist law energy and attacked Chu Kuangren with it.
The Spatial One was gifted and had once survived a hit from the Tempest King.
Now that he had ascended to Monarch, his powers were much more terrifying. Common Monarchs were no match for him.
Unfortunately, he was fighting Chu Kuangren.
As the Tempest King said, the firefly would never be as bright as the moon's brilliance.
Chu Kuangren swung a slap forward, unleashing three thousand Daoist law energies.
The Spatial One's Spatial Daoist law energy was easily crushed, and the slap sent him flying away.
"W-What?"
The Spatial One turned pale.
Before he met Chu Kuangren, he thought his power was on par with Chu Kuangren's.
However, what just happened before his eyes made him question his entire life.
One slap was all it took for Chu Kuangren to send him flying away!
How was it possible?
The Spatial One was drowning in disbelief. As a proud person who could not accept defeat, he channeled more Spatial Daoist law energy and cast his strongest attack.
"Void Divine Gale!"
Spatial Daoist law intertwined and summoned a storm.
It was so powerful that it could easily obliterate Third Step Monarchs.
Still, Chu Kuangren barely glanced at it. He simply swung his saber forward, releasing a saber ray that canceled the void storm.
After the slash, the Spatial One's body was badly injured, and he was bleeding profusely. He was blasted to the walls of the prison, his Great Dao shaken.
"I-Impossible! I'm the Spatial One, born from the Spatial Source! I am the future Void Ruler! How could I lose so badly?"
The Spatial One's face was ashen, and he refused to believe it.
Both Chu Kuangren and the Spatial One were newly ascended Monarchs, yet their strength difference was heaven and earth apart!
Chu Kuangren swung his saber forward for a slash again.
This time, he did not aim at the Spatial One but the Space Emperor who was shackled by chains.
The slash broke some chains around the Space Emperor, but not all.
Before Chu Kuangren could break the remaining chains, a boundless aura arrived from outside the prison.
The Void Prison shook violently, and a void storm gushed in through the cracks and openings. In just a blink of an eye, more than half of the prisoners were dead.
"This aura..."
Chu Kuangren narrowed his eyes.
It was an Ultimate Monarch!
Only an Ultimate Monarch could possess that powerful energy.
"Chu Kuangren, causing trouble at the Void Prison is the biggest mistake of your life!" a frosty voice echoed in the void.
Divine light shone, and an elderly emerged.
As he stepped forward, the void rippled and split to both sides of him, as if even the void was afraid of him.
The elderly man was an Ultimate Monarch and one of the oldest beings of the Spatial Tribe.
"Void Spirit King! You're just in time!"
The Spatial One was delighted to see the elderly. Then, he glared at Chu Kuangren and said, "Kill him! If he isn't killed, he will threaten the entire tribe!"
Even though the Spatial One wanted to defeat Chu Kuangren with his own hands, he knew he could not do it with his current power level.
Allowing Chu Kuangren to live would only threaten him more in the future.
Why not borrow the strength of the Ultimate Monarch and eliminate Chu Kuangren?
Such a monstrous Outlier should not be allowed to live.
"Very well!"
The Void Spirit King nodded and said nothing else.
He had come specifically for Chu Kuangren's life.
"Ultimate Monarch, huh? Interesting."
Chu Kuangren was eager to challenge one.
He was not afraid of any Monarchs under the Ultimate level.
In fact, he wanted to know how far he was compared to the Ultimate Monarch.
"Void Sky Seal Pierce!"
The Void Spirit King condensed Spatial Daoist law energy at his fingertips. The boundless energy was targeted at Chu Kuangren, and there was no escape.
Chu Kuangren felt like the sky was falling on him as he stood before the pierce attack.
He felt as tiny as an ant.
"An Ultimate Monarch is indeed powerful." Chu Kuangren chuckled.
As he wielded the Dragonslayer, his eyes were as frosty as an icy lake. There was no emotion in him, but the saber intent was strong and violent.
Once the nine hundred and eighty-one formations on his body were activated, his body shook and released a boundless and dazzling divine light.
Coupled with the power from the Heaven-devouring Technique and Heavenly Human Art, Chu Kuangren became the strongest Monarch second to the Ultimate Monarchs.
Sensing the surge of Chu Kuangren's aura shocked the Spatial One. In fact, he was jealous.
They had both ascended to Monarch just recently, yet Chu Kuangren was ridiculously powerful! It did not make any sense!
"Sword Twenty-five!"
Chu Kuangren attacked using the saber as a sword.
Unmatched sword intent rose into the sky and went on a rampage through time.
Then, a silver-white sword shadow that could cut through time and space shot across the sky and clashed with the Void Spirit King's pierce.
The entire prison shook violently.
Cracks appeared from the ninth level and spread down all the way to the first level.
The Void Prison felt like it was falling apart!
The terrifying aura sent shivers down everyone's spine.
The Void Spirit King frowned and retracted his hand only to see a cut at the tip of his finger, which meant he had been hurt!
"This young one possesses so much power!"
The Void Spirit King was shocked.
