Chapter 1137: A Sword Attack Invitation, I Can’t Take it, Attack Me Individually or All Together?

“Chu Kuangren! He’s here!”

Everyone’s eyes widened in horror, especially the Heavenly Champions. All of them stared at the person who came with curious eyes.

The Heavenly Champions had gotten to know about other Heavenly Champions over the years, but Chu Kuangren was different from others.

He was known as the weakest Heavenly Champion, who was in the Scripture Sea all day long, giving the other Heavenly Champions no opportunity to interact with him.

As such, Chu Kuangren was mysterious to all Heavenly Champions.

Especially when he had mastered the two rumored ancient conjurations of the academy, everyone found him even more unpredictable.

“Is today a good time to test him out?”

The thought emerged in all Heavenly Champions’ minds almost simultaneously.

However, Scholar Yao, who was closest to Chu Kuangren, felt his eyelids twitching and somewhat uneasy.

He mobilized his Immortal’s Core to pull his hand back, but he could not get rid of Chu Kuangren’s grip.

At that moment, Scholar Yao realized the strength gap between himself and Chu Kuangren, and cold sweat started dripping from his forehead.

“Heavenly Champion Chu, isn’t that enough?”

Scholar Yao gulped with a hint of fear in his eyes.

At that, Chu Kuangren glanced at Lan Yu, who was bleeding at the mouth, and said, “Is the Elegant Gathering a life-and-death battle? Your palm attack would have killed her if I came a second later.”

“I’m sorry. I admit I was a little too harsh, but injuries are inevitable in a duel,” said Scholar Yao with a smile.

He was indeed distracted by Lan Yu just now and was eager to win, not expecting her to be stronger than he thought. As such, he was forced to use his ultimate move.

He did not wish to have a conflict with Chu Kuangren, so he apologized and decided that he would compensate Chu Kuangren later. With his identity as a Heavenly Champion, he believed that Chu Kuangren would not pursue the matter.

Chu Kuangren released Scholar Yao’s hand.

Scholar Yao rubbed his wrist and breathed a sigh of relief.

He assumed Chu Kuangren did not want to have bad blood with him either.

“A sword attack,” Chu Kuangren suddenly said.

“What?” Scholar Yao was stunned for a moment.

“A sword attack. I will put this matter aside if you can take my sword attack,” said Chu Kuangren indifferently.

Everyone exchanged glances upon hearing what Chu Kuangren said.

“Chu Kuangren is trying to find a way out.”

“Well, Chu Kuangren will lose his dignity as a Heavenly Champion if he does nothing. That is why he wants Scholar Yao to take his sword attack. After all, they’re both Heavenly Champions. There’s no reason why he can’t even take a sword attack.”

“That’s right. If he wants to pursue the matter, I’m afraid it’ll be a decisive battle.”

A few of the Heavenly Champions shook their heads.

‘Only a sword attack?’

‘His follower was almost severely injured, but he only wants the person to take a sword attack? Chu Kuangren isn’t that mad after all.’

“Something isn’t right,” mumbled Zhao Fangfei.

Based on the information she collected, Chu Kuangren was not easy to deal with.

‘Could it be that Lan Yu isn’t important to Chu Kuangren?’

“Ha! Since Heavenly Champion Chu is interested, don’t mind if I do,” said Scholar Yao with a faint smile.

His thought was similar to others.

‘It’s just a sword attack. It’s no big deal.’

‘We’re both Heavenly Champions. How huge can the gap in strength be?’

‘I must be able to take a sword attack.’

“Well, get ready.”

“Ready… D*mn!” Scholar Yao wanted to say he was ready, but he disregarded his image and cursed the next second. He was shocked, and there was an intense fear in his eyes.

A terrifying sword intent with majestic Heavenly Might erupted from Chu Kuangren’s body and blanketed the land!

Everyone’s pupils shrank in horror when they sensed the sword intent.

“Such powerful sword intent!”

“T-This Immortal Technique must be at least a Gilded Immortal Technique!”

All Heavenly Champions’ expressions turned solemn.

Even though they were not the ones facing the attack, they could feel the powerful force weighing on him, let alone Scholar Yao.

Just then, Scholar Yao sensed an unprecedented fear enveloping him. Every cell in his body was shivering, wailing, and urging him to… leave!

He could not resist the sword attack!

“Sword-like Heavenly Intent!”

As Chu Kuangren pointed out his sword hand sign, the majestic Heavenly Intent transformed into sword intent and then into sword qi to create a huge purple sword shadow!

The moment the sword shadow slashed downward, the force that enveloped Scholar Yao instantly reached its peak. His strong will to survive suppressed the fear in his heart, and he yelled, channeling his Immortal’s Core to the ultimate.

“Hurricane Divine Sword Art!”

Scholar Yao raised the jade fan in his hand and unleashed a sword attack.

Bang!

An explosion erupted in the void when both sword shadows collided!

However, the purple sword shadow gained momentum. Unstoppable, the Sword-like Heavenly Intent tore Scholar Yao’s sword qi apart!

The next moment, the sword shadow struck Scholar Yao, and with a bang, his body exploded into blood mist!

Neither his raw physical nor Immortal Soul was spared!

Silence!

Dead silence filled the land!

Everyone looked at the figure in white in the air with dull eyes, as if they were dreaming.

“You can’t even take a sword attack. Tsk, trash,” said Chu Kuangren while shaking his head.

His voice broke the silence.

Soon after, the crowd was in an uproar.

“W-What did I just see?!”

“A sword attack! Chu Kuangren killed Scholar Yao with a sword attack!”

“My goodness. Is he a monster?”

Chu Kuangren, whom everyone regarded as the weakest Heavenly Champion, killed Scholar Yao with a sword attack!

‘How can the weakest Heavenly Campion possess such strength?!’

‘What kind of outrageous rumor was that?!”

In the void, a white ray emerged and penetrated Chu Kuangren’s body. It was Scholar Yao’s will of the Immortal World.

Chu Kuangren’s will of the Immortal World jumped around in joy inside Chu Kuangren’s body as it had grown slightly stronger after absorbing Scholar Yao’s will of the Immortal World.

That was when Chu Kuangren understood something.

To put it plainly, the Battle of the Heavenly Champions was for a group of Heavenly Champions, who had the will of the Immortal World, to kill each other and then seize the will of the Immortal World in their bodies.

Whoever survived in the end would be the Immortal World Ruler.

Heavenly Champions could also take the initiative to surrender their will of the Immortal World, but they would not be qualified to compete for the role of the Immortal World Ruler.

“Chu Kuangren! How dare you publicly kill a Heavenly Champion?!” questioned the organizer of the Elegant Gathering, Li Wangchen of the Cirrus Academy, while staring at Chu Kuangren.

Chu Kuangren’s expression still remained indifferent. “I gave him a chance, but he didn’t treasure it.”

Everyone stayed silent.

That was true.

Chu Kuangren did mention that as long as Scholar Yao could take his sword attack, he would not hold him accountable for hurting Lan Yu.

However, Scholar Yao could not defend himself against the attack.

Everyone thought Chu Kuangren’s sword attack was a means of finding a way out for himself and that he did not want to have bad blood with Scholar Yao.

Never did they imagine that the sword attack would kill Scholar Yao!

From the start, Chu Kuangren had never had the intention to spare him for injuring Lan Yu, and he knew that Scholar Yao could not take his sword attack.

“Well, let’s continue with the Elegant Gathering, shall we? It’s a duel, right? Would all of you like to attack me individually or all together?”

Chu Kuangren slowly descended from the sky.

His steps were light, but as if the earth could not bear it, the entire mountain shook and collapsed when he landed!
