Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

Chu Kuangren’s descent into the world shocked every force!

This was a fact that they could not ignore.

The first time Chu Kuangren descended into the world, he slew an Honorable Supreme and annihilated hundred-thousand demonic cultivators, which heavily demoralized all other sky-prides.

The second time he descended into the world came after his three years of closed-door meditation.

Everybody thought that he was already eliminated by the tides of time then.

However, he still managed to shock the world with his unparalleled prowess by slaying Honorable Supremes in Sword Prayer City and getting enlisted as first in the Hundred Swords Spectrum.

He sparred with a Sage at Whitelock Mountain, self-created an Emperor Technique, then took over as Black Heaven Sect Leader, and obtained recognition from the Godly Phoenix.

The most dreadful thing was that he had only just become the Sect Leader for a few days when he ran over to the Black Warrior Domain and killed two Sages from the Murong clan!

Now, after he had been Sect Leader for a year-long, this was his third time descending into the world!

Who knew what sort of chaos he would bring this time!

All the great forces of the world were closely monitoring his whereabouts.

…

There were the Ten Great Forbidden Areas in Firmament Star.

These Ten Great Forbidden Areas were so notorious on Firmament Star that even Sages kept their distances from them, not daring to venture too deep into them.

The Ancient Battlefield was one of those.

Meanwhile, amongst all Ten Great Forbidden Areas, the danger level of the Ancient Battlefield was relatively low. As long as one did not venture too deep into it, mild exploration would still be permitted.

Besides, throughout the ages, many wars had taken place at the Ancient Battlefield which left behind numerous treasures and Opportunities of Fortune.

Hence, this place attracted many cultivators who came to explore and shaped a unique adventuring tradition at the place.

The outer region of the Ancient Battlefield.

Chu Kuangren and Lan Yu were strolling on a piece of barren desert as sandstorms swept past around them.

If it were any usual person who had no necessary precautions, they would have felt unusually uncomfortable. Even opening their mouths to speak would be a difficulty because once opened, those sand would surely make their way into their mouths.

However, Chu Kuangren and his companion were both cultivators with impeccable strengths. By circulating their spiritual power, the surface of their bodies released a layer of forcefield, effortlessly barricading off all the sand. Hence, the sandstorms did not affect them even the slightest bit.

Chu Kuangren stared at a deeper region of the desert. Although it was hard to see with the naked eye, he was still able to sense the immense ferocious qi within that place!

Such a scale of ferocious qi was formed from god knew how many massacres and the death of how many living beings.

“The Ancient Battlefield has three regions, the Outer Zone, the Inner Zone, and the Core Area. That Sage War that the Eternal Sage King mentioned must have taken place at the Core Area. But the ferocious qi in there is too strong, we best stay away from it.”

Chu Kuangren muttered.

“Master, look. There’s a fort there.”

Just then, Lan Yu pointed to a spot afar.

A distance away, a towering fort stood majestically in the middle of the sandstorm.

“That should be Sunsoil City.”

Chu Kuangren speculated.

Sunsoil City was the only fort at the Ancient Battlefield’s Outer Zone, and it was also the gathering point for countless cultivators who came here to adventure.

The two of them headed in the direction of Sunsoil City to which they soon arrived at.

The city gate was left open and there was no one guarding it. Meanwhile, the security inside the city was unusually lenient with people walking in and out at their will, and they all looked travel-stained.

The worst part was that some people were having fistfights in the middle of the street, yet nobody bothered to intervene.

“D*mn, the folk custom here is quite rugged.”

Chu Kuangren chuckled.

They wanted to look for a slightly cleaner place to refresh themselves and scout for some intel regarding this Ancient Battlefield in the meantime.

After walking in a big circle, they finally found an inn in the middle of the city. This inn looked quite exquisite and high-classed.

To be able to open such an inn at this kind of place must be someone with a considerable amount of wealth.

“My two guests, here for a quick stop or to spend a night over?” The moment they walked in, a middle-aged man approached them and welcomed them.

When Chu Kuangren saw this person, he was rather surprised. “Master Qian?”

This person was not anybody else but Qian Fugui himself.

He was the one who opened the Famed Blades Hotel in the Hidden Sword Canyon, Qian Fugui.

Qian Fugui’s eyes lit up. Although this person before him had a spiritual veil cover hence he could not look at his face clearly, Qian Fugui was able to instantly recognize that this person in front of him was Chu Kuangren by hearing his voice alone.

“Yo, what an important guest! Brother Chu, please come in.” Qian Fugui hurriedly welcomed the two inside the inn, then personally reserved a clean private room for them.

In the private room.

Chu Kuangren stared at Qian Fugui in front of him and said, “My oh my, Master Qian, don’t tell me this inn belongs to you as well?”

“Indeed, Brother Chu.”

“Heh, the Fugui Firm is truly the biggest business firm on Firmament Star. Your establishments are everywhere.”

Chu Kuangren revealed Qian Fugui’s identity the moment he opened his mouth.

Upon hearing that, Qian Fugui’s expression froze, but he immediately readjusted it to his normal demeanor.

“I wonder how you figured that out, Brother Chu.”

Qian Fugui quit concealing the truth when he realized that his identity was exposed.

“I guessed it.”

“Oh… alright then.”

“Fine, let’s cut to the point. Master Qian, since you’re here at this moment, you’re not purposely waiting for my arrival, are you?”

“It’s true that the Fugui Firm’s businesses cover almost every corner of the world, thus our intel is quite adequate as well. I caught wind that Brother Chu was headed to the Ancient Battlefield, hence I came to Sunsoil City to make this gamble. Who knew that I would actually meet you here?”

“Why is it that you’re looking for me?”

“Not much. Would you buy it if I said I just wanted to make friends with you, Brother Chu?” Qian Fugui smiled.

“I believe you.”

Chu Kuangren nodded. “Because in this world, there are many people who want to make friends with me, so I don’t think Master Qian’s an exception.”

With his current position of power, there were indeed numerous people who wished they could befriend Chu Kuangren.

“Brother Chu, you can be really direct when you speak.”

Qian Fugui sighed helplessly.

“Alright, if there’s nothing else, I’m going to go get some rest.”

Chu Kuangren said. Then just as he was about to stand up and leave, a sudden commotion was heard from downstairs.

There seemed to be a standoff at the street, where both sides had weapons held in their hands. The situation was incredibly tense, and it looked as though an outburst could occur at any moment.

“It’s the people from Horizon Wing Troop and Tenacious Tiger Troop.” Qian Fugui took a look at the commotion and explained with a smile.

A lot of cultivators in Sunsoil City were here for an adventure in the Ancient Battlefield and to look for Opportunities of Fortune. Besides the people who traveled solo, a large portion of them were cultivators who traveled together and formed groups.

Since this place was the great Ancient Battlefield, the adventuring groups which these cultivators had formed were also referred to as “troops”.

Some of the more powerful troops even had Honorables.

Chu Kuangren took a closer look at what was happening and noticed that this squabble between the two troops seemed to have stemmed from a supreme weapon.

It turned out that the Horizon Wing Troop had discovered a supreme weapon at the Outer Zone of the Ancient Battlefield, but someone from the Tenacious Tiger Troop claimed to have found it first and that it was taken away by the Horizon Wing Troop.

After both troops returned to Sunsoil City, they gathered their forces and prepared for a fight.

“Is it even worthwhile just for a supreme weapon?” Chu Kuangren shook his head and laughed it off.

There were loads of Honorable-Grade swords inside his Sacred Emerald Sword Case. Adding that to the gacha draws he had over this past year, he now owned nearly twenty odd Sacred Swords.

Those were just swords alone. As for the remainder of the equipment, he had drawn god knew how many of them, and he had deposited them all into Black Heaven Sect’s treasury.

“Brother Chu, you’re the epitome of the saying, the well-fed doesn’t know how the starving suffers,” Qian Fugui could not help but say.

A supreme weapon was an extremely rare item to the outside world as some of the Honorables did not even have one of these.

“Right, speaking of which, the leader of this Horizon Wing Troop should be a Daoist from the Horizon Wing Sect. Mind I remind you that the Horizon Wing Sect is an affiliated force of the Black Heaven Sect.”

“Oh, is that so?”

Chu Kuangren was a little surprised at that. If that was true, it meant that this Horizon Wing Sect was like a little brother of his little brother.

So, should he get involved, or should he not?
