Chapter 346: A Duel Between Two Great Empyrean Walkers, The Descendant Self Sword Emerges From The Sky Emperor Palace
Chu Kuangren was in a closed-door meditation, but empyrean walkers kept showing up at his door to challenge him. Previously came Ye Xin, and now came Guo San...
After settling these two, another two empyrean walkers showed up in the next few days, causing more headaches for Elder Ruyan.
News of empyrean walkers continuously challenging Chu Kuangren at his home spread like wildfire, and many people were closely following the latest developments.
Black Heaven Sect.
The four empyrean walkers were now gathered together.
"My friends, I wonder what you think of this Chu Kuangren."
Ye Xin from the Big Dipper Palace kickstarted the conversation.
Beside him, a curvaceous woman smiled sweetly, "I heard that his appearance is so divine that his pretty face has bewitched many people. I'm intrigued to have a look for myself to find out just how handsome he is."
"Hmph, who knew that the Thousand Flower Valley's empyrean walker would be so shallow? How disappointing."
A brawny, black-haired man scorned in response to that.
This man was an empyrean walker from Battle Cloud Realm, Zhan Long.
"Pfft, there's nobody like you Battle Cloud Realm people, a bunch of battle-crazed lunatics. You guys know nothing about the enjoyments of life."
Feng Yaorao, the empyrean walker from Thousand Flower Valley rolled her eyes and rebutted.
"I heard that this Chu Kuangren can defeat Great Sages, and although I don't know if there's any truth in it, I reckon that his combat strength should not be taken lightly."
Ye Xin said.
"Haha. Anyhow, I don't think this Chu Kuangren would come out from his closed-door meditation anytime soon. How about we spar with each other first? What do you guys think?!"
Guo San from the Immovable Sect suddenly threw out the suggestion.
At that, the other three empyrean walkers' eyes lit up. Amongst them, the most battle-crazed Zhan Long even flashed a smug grin and said, "Not a bad idea. Since Chu Kuangren is not out yet, I don't mind having a few appetizers before I get a taste of the real thing."
Upon hearing what he said, the rest of them raised their eyebrows.
"Calling us his appetizers, what a bold claim."
"Hmph, can you even take up all of us?"
"Why don't you let me have a go at you first?!"
Guo San took a step forward and an incredibly majestic Daoist Rhyme abruptly erupted from his body. As if his whole body had fused with the earth underneath his feet, he exuded an extremely sturdy poise with the scale of a towering mountain.
It was the Immovable Sect's specialized earth qi Dao!
Their people could convert the boundless earth qi all around them into combat strength!
"Good, come at me!"
Zhan Long laughed out loud as an incredibly majestic Daoist Rhyme erupted from his body too. This Daoist Rhyme, which was both violent and scorching, spread towards all four directions and shrouded a good whole half of Black Heaven Sect in an endless war cloud now. Everyone there felt like they could hear the distant battle cries from the void.
This startled Murong Xuan, Nangong Huang, and the rest of the people.
They looked towards the distance with terror in their eyes.
"Such scary energy... Is this the power of an empyrean walker? It's truly remarkable, but why have they started to fight each other?"
"Let's go and have a look."
The few of them rushed to the residential place of the empyrean walkers.
What met their eyes were Guo San and Zhan Long who were already in a battle.
The two were extremely strong empyrean walkers. Not only had the Daoist Rhyme from their clash affect a big half of the Black Heaven Sect, but shockwaves from that dreadful energy had also spread and flung quite a few spectating disciples off their feet.
"What a scary energy."
"I can't believe we can't even get close to it."
"It's too powerful."
Bewildered by that spectacle, some of the disciples began to exchange whispers.
Facing such a cosmic battle, only the likes of Nangong Huang and Murong Xuan could endure the pressure and watch the battle from a close distance.
Even so, if they were pitched in a battle against empyrean walkers like Guo San and Zhan Long, it would still be very tough for them to prevail.
Boom!
The moment Guo San and Zhan Long's fist and palm collided, violent earth qi and raging spiritual energy came crashing together. As a result, the mountain peak beneath their feet cracked, and with a loud boom, the place instantly collapsed.
A landslide was set off, destroying various disciples' residences that were in the area.
However, Guo San and Zhan Long remained oblivious to that. They simply continued to indulge in that intense battle of theirs, where horrific Daoist Rhyme constantly interweaved.
Bang, bang, bang...
The combat strength of the two was so outstanding, their immense power was often accompanied by destruction.
The battle between the two empyrean walkers had already caused massive damage to some parts of the Black Heaven Sect, which was not really a problem for the wealthy and resourceful Black Heaven Sect.
Nonetheless, if this battle went on, nobody knew how much more damage would be caused, and if there were to be any casualties, things would become more complicated.
"No, we have to stop them."
"They have to, at least, shift this battle to another place."
Nangong Huang furrowed his eyebrows.
His figure turned into a flash. Spiritual power coursed through his whole body and Divine Yinyang Light circulated in his eyes as he fended off the battle shockwaves from the two empyrean walkers.
"My two friends, please stop this. Your battle has already caused a lot of destruction to the Black Heaven Sect. Please move to another location to do this."
Nangong Huang yelled out at them.
"Haha, we're only just getting into it. How can you ask us to stop right now? Don't worry, whatever we've broken, we'll compensate you accordingly. We have tons of soulstones anyway." Zhan Long laughed out loud.
His whole body was blazing with smoldering battle intent.
Across from him, Guo San was just as excited about this. "He's absolutely right. Since the fight has come to this, how can we pull the brakes right here and now?"
"Come, take one more of my attack, Mountain River Seal!!"
Guo San then formed a mysterious hand seal. Earth qi surged from underneath the ground before it transformed into a giant mountain range. Along with an incredibly powerful and boundless Daoist Rhyme, it smashed in the direction of Zhan Long.
"Brilliant move!"
Zhan Long's eyes lit up as he pinched with his five fingers. A similarly incredibly powerful Daoist Rhyme was amassed. "Sky Conqueror Fist!! Break this attack!"
He smashed out a fist, in which its energy surged out like a torrent.
An infinite battle intent and Daoist Rhyme frenziedly smashed against the void before them.
Having achieved the standards of Sages, both energies clashed and created an aftershock that spread outward. Nangong Huang, who was nearest to it, turned grim. He hastily activated the spiritual power surrounding his body and blocked the sheer force of the impact with his Divine Yinyang Light.
Despite doing so, he was still jolted back several hundred meters. Then, he felt a dull pain on his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"What a powerful force. I can't even bear the aftershock." Nangong Huang watched the battle with eyes full of shock.
These two empyrean walkers were not Sages, yet they could summon combat strengths that were on the level of Sages. So, this was what empyrean walkers were capable of!
If they did not have such power, would they even dare to make a name for their sect?!
In the deep reaches of the Black Heaven Sect.
"This is too much. Do these empyrean walkers think that they can wreak havoc at our Black Heaven Sect just because they represent the unknown lands?"
Black Heaven's Third Forefather said furiously.
Just as he was about to go there and stop Guo San and his compatriot so that they could stop destroying the Black Heaven Sect...
A distance away, from the direction of the Sky Emperor Palace, a sword ray swooped up into the sky and an incredibly chilling Sword-based Daoist Rhyme spread rapidly.
Black Heaven's Third Forefather and the others could not help but gasp in surprise.
"This energy... Is the Sect Leader out of his closed-door meditation?"
"That isn't the Sect Leader. Guys, look."
The sword ray that had shot out from the Sky emperor Palace was not Chu Kuangren but an extremely delicate and white jade-like sword.
It was the sword that was ranked first in the Thousand Swords Spectrum... the Descendant Self!
The Descendant Self Sword's body vibrated lightly before it swept towards the sky above Guo San and Zhan Long's battlefield like a beam of light.
Following that, tremendous earth-shattering Sword-based Daoist Rhyme surged out!
When Guo San and Zhan Long sensed this incredibly petrifying Sword-based Daoist Rhyme, their faces could not help but turn solemn. Finally, they brought their duel to a stop.
