Chapter 1231: Xuanyuan Sword Qi, Only Emperors Who Die In Battles And Never One Who Surrenders

Chu Kuangren did not bother to explain himself to Xuanyuan’s successor.

He looked at the man and continued, “As the Human Emperor’s successor, not only did you enslave the Tengu Bachelor Sage, you even left a sliver of your Immortal Consciousness in him so that you could get into this Ancient Heavenly Yokai Cave. I believe there must be some Opportunities of Fortune here that capture your attention.”

Unlike Chu Kuangren, who altered his physique to enter the cave, the Xuanyuan successor was just a clone of his Immortal Consciousness. He hitch-hiked on the Tengu Bachelor Sage to get past the restriction seals set up by an Arch Gilded so that he could enter without hindrance.

It might sound easy, but it was actually difficult to execute.

The restriction seals were of Arch Gilded level, and it was not easy to fool.

It was unimaginable how much effort the Xuanyuan successor put into crafting that unique clone of his Immortal Consciousness.

There were many other Opportunities of Fortune across the Immortal World, yet he chose here despite the fact it would demand a huge amount of effort from him. Hence, there must be something tempting here in the Yokai Tribes’ territory.

The Xuanyuan successor stared at Chu Kuangren in silence.

“King Zhou!” Chu Kuangren mentioned another name.

The mention of the name changed the expression on the Xuanyuan successor’s face, and he could no longer remain calm.

“It seems like I am right.”

Chu Kuangren chuckled and continued, “As the Heavenly Champion of the Human Emperor Sect and the Xuanyuan Human Emperor’s successor, the only thing that is worth all your effort must be the inheritance of an ancient Human Emperor.

“This Ancient Heavenly Yokai Cave might house the Opportunities of Fortune left behind by the Human Emperor, and it is likely that the beloved concubine of King Zhou, Daji, is the key to what you seek.”

“Chu Kuangren, you are really sharp,” Xuanyuan’s successor said. In other words, he acknowledged Chu Kuangren’s speculation because he did come into the cave for King Zhou’s Opportunities of Fortune.

“Thank you.”

“But even so…” Before Xuanyuan’s successor completed his sentence, a golden sword appeared in his hand.

The sword had the sun, the moon, and the stars carved on one side of the blade, and the other had mountains, rivers, and jungles etched on it. One side of the hilt showed humanity and geography, while the other showed strategies to rule over the four seas.

An endless sword might emanated from the sword, shaking the sun, moon, and stars, as well as the void.

The sword was none other than the Human Emperor Treasure, the Xuanyuan Sword!

The moment the sword appeared, its aura locked on to Chu Kuangren.

As the Xuanyuan successor unleashed a slash forward with the sword, a golden sword ray with a majestic and rampant aura enveloped the land. Its might was boundless.

“Ha! A clone plus an apparition of the Xuanyuan sword, and you wish to compete with me? Foolish!” Chu Kuangren scoffed.

He pointed his sword hand sign forward and drew an arc in the void.

The brilliant green light gleamed in his eyes, and the Green Leaf Sword Vision was activated. The sword grass behind him swayed, releasing a powerful sword qi that was as thick as a river, and its might could tremble the stars in the sky.

It was the Green Leaf Sword Vision’s Grass Sword Art versus the Xuanyuan Sword’s sword qi!

A top-tier Sword Dao divine ability versus the zenith of Sword Dao cultivation technique!

The moment both sword qi clashed, the shockwaves shook the land and leveled mountain peaks. Even pitch-black cracks tore open in the void.

The Tengu Bachelor Sage bore the brunt of the blast from the collision. Under the barrage of the endless sword qi, he was torn to shreds and burst into a cloud of blood mist before he could react.

The Xuanyuan Sword’s sword qi might be powerful, but the Xuanyuan successor remained a clone, and he was not powerful enough to withstand even the most casual of slashes from Chu Kuangren.

With Xuanyuan Sword’s sword qi destroyed, the sword qi continued to tear the Xuanyuan successor’s clone into pieces.

Before the clone disintegrated into dust, he shot a deep gaze at Chu Kuangren and warned him, “Chu Kuangren, when we meet again, I will show you the real Xuanyuan sword qi!”

“When we meet again, I will let you know why you should revere me like you were to a king,” Chu Kuangren said indifferently.

“Hmph. Boastful!” The Xuanyuan successor grunted before his clone disintegrated into dust.

Chu Kuangren’s figure flashed and appeared in front of the palace. He pointed his sword hand sign ahead and released the rampant sword qi to eliminate the rest of the Tengu Tribe.

As for the remaining Dark Fox Tribe, they had fled the scene when the situation turned against them.

Then, Chu Kuangren glanced at the palace before he headed inside.

When he stepped into the restriction seals at the outer palace, the restriction seals did not react to his presence even when his Celestial Fox Physique was not activated.

In other words, the restriction seals were not set up to target humans.

“It seems like this place really holds King Zhou’s inheritance. Perhaps it was because King Zhou was a human, so Daji did not limit the access of humans.

“Interesting. Rumor has it Daji indirectly caused the decline of the Yin Shang Dynasty, yet King Zhou’s inheritance was left together with hers. I think there’s more to it than meets the eye here,” Chu Kuangren murmured.

The interior of the palace was grand and glamorous. All kinds of Immortal chalcedony and Immortal Herbs were scattered over the place.

Deeper inside the palace was a statue carved with white jade.

The statue looked lively with the delicate facial features, the soft expression on the face, and the voluptuous body. There was an indescribable beauty to it.

It combined both the softness of a lady and the femininity of a woman perfectly. Its beauty was jaw-dropping.

“So this is the legendary Yokai Concubine, Daji? Interesting,” Chu Kuangren murmured.

Daji was indeed beautiful. She was more feminine than Dark Fox Maiden Sage and more elegant than Tushan Fei Yu.

However, no matter how beautiful she was, Chu Kuangren’s Daoist core was not moved.

There were two balls of light in front of the statue, formed by countless intertwining Daoist patterns, resembling two hatching eggs.

At a closer look, Chu Kuangren could spot two figures in each of the balls of light.

They were the Dark Fox Maiden Sage and Tushan Fei Yu.

“Oh? Are the two of them receiving the test from Daji together? Interesting. I wonder where the thing I’m looking for is.”

Chu Kuangren observed the palace.

He was looking for King Zhou’s Opportunity of Fortune as he was not really interested in Daji’s inheritance.

“I didn’t expect a human to make it into the Ancient Heavenly Yokai Cave.” A soft and feminine voice suddenly sounded.

Chu Kuangren turned his attention to the statue and felt as if it was looking at him.

“Greetings, senior.” Chu Kuangren made a fist salute.

A white light projection of a person came out from the statue. It was the strand of Immortal Consciousness left behind by Daji.

Compared to the statue, Daji’s strand of Immortal Consciousness looked even livelier.

“Human, are you here to search for King Zhou’s inheritance?”

“I am.” Chu Kuangren nodded.

“The inheritance you are looking for is somewhere here, but it’s up to you to prove your worthiness to it.”

Daji swung her sleeve, and a dark red armor and a crimson greatsword appeared before Chu Kuangren.

Both the armor and greatsword were covered in mystical Daoist patterns and emanated a vast energy presence.

It was the Arch Gilded intent! The Arch Gilded intent with unmatched power!

King Zhou was an Arch Gilded Immortal with a terrifying cultivation base.

The moment Chu Kuangren looked at the armor and the greatsword, he felt his heart begin to pound as though he resonated with them.

Then, faint energy emanated from him.

It was the Humanity Fortune energy!

Suddenly, Chu Kuangren saw the image of a person in dark red armor wielding a crimson sword.

He stood among a sea of dead bodies.

Before him was an army of cultivators, and above him were Immortals and Celestial Demons.

He was surrounded by enemies in every direction!

“King Zhou, surrender!”

“Surrender and submit to the Immortal Hall, and I will leave an honorable place for you on the Deitification Tablet!”

“Surrender, and you will be spared!”

The armored figure presented unyielding arrogance before everyone’s persuasion to surrender.

His black hair fluttered in the wind as he shouted at the cultivators and Immortals alike, “Mankind only has emperors who die in battle and never one who surrenders to invaders!”
