Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

High in the sky, the figure that represented Chu Kuangren swung his sword, and every time he did it, a different and mysterious new technique would appear.

He had mastered the Dharma Sect’s seventy-four Supreme Techniques and four Sage Techniques. His proficiency with them could rival the Sect Master himself!

All of this was beyond everyone’s expectations.

“How is his comprehensive ability so terrifying?!”

“Is he even human?!”

“Simply horrifying.”

The Dharma Sect Master was dumbfounded.

All it took was a day!

They had all thought that it would be impressive if Chu Kuangren could acquire even ten Supreme Techniques.

However, acquiring eight thousand methods from the stele forest in half a day was simply terrifying, and they thought he could only acquire roughly thirty of them.

After all, Supreme Techniques were much more difficult than methods.

Unfortunately, they had still underestimated him!

It was a drastic underestimation!

In the void, Chu Kuangren’s figure swung the sword around to practice all the techniques before he stopped. He stood mid-air with the sword in hand and his eyes unmoving.

Yet the majestic Daoist Rhymes around him increased rapidly, and many of those Rhymes gradually fused into one!

It was a terrifying and boundless sword Daoist Rhyme!

Chu Kuangren’s figure began to move again.

He moved the moment all of the Daoist Rhymes fused into one. He swung the sword, and a dazzling purple sword ray pierced through the heaven, tearing a large hole in between the clouds.

“What a terrifying Daoist Rhyme!”

“Does this mean he has mastered the Single Strike Technique?”

The Sect Master and company looked at each other.

At that moment, the figure in the sky disappeared and the strong Daoist rhyme receded like a tide, but the door to the scripture library opened with a creak.

The white-robed Chu Kuangren slowly walked out, where the crowd could see the faint mysterious runes that surrounded him.

“His Transcendent Coalescence Daoist Physique has improved.” The Sect Master narrowed his eyes when he saw this, but he was shocked on the inside.

He now had a reason to believe that it was highly likely for Chu Kuangren to have obtained a perfect Transcendent Coalescence Daoist Physique from the insights he had acquired.

“This has been a bountiful visit. I greatly thank you, Master. I’ve been quite the chatterbox these past two days, so I shall take my leave now.” Chu Kuangren grinned.

He was very satisfied with his visit to the Dharma Sect this time as his Single Strike Technique improved by leaps and bounds.

Though his Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique improved even more. Compared to the White Lotus Light of Purification, this Avarice Technique was even stronger than a Sage Ruler Technique.

The Dharma Sect Master and everyone else felt uncomfortable at Chu Kuangren’s words.

He had only been in the Dharma Sect for less than two days, yet he had already acquired all of their Techniques.

Whereas the rest of the disciples had trained so hard for most of their lives but they still could not compare themselves to Chu Kuangren’s effort in a single day. The gap was too big.

“Junior Chu, take care. I won’t see you out.”

The Sect Master smiled, but it was very forced. After all, he was hit just as hard as everyone.

“I will. May we meet again.”

Chu Kuangren bowed slightly before he turned around with Lan Yu and walked down the mountain. Wherever he went, the disciples of the Dharma Sect would look at him with complicated gazes filled with anger, admiration, and hysteria.

However, few were envious.

The gap was impossible to close as it was no longer something that was achievable in this world. How could one feel envy over an impossible feat?

“A great world war? That’s all a joke.”

“In a world full of fights, the stars still shine, but this man is more like the scorching sun. How can you see the stars when the sun outshines us all?”

In the crowd, Yuanhong laughed bitterly. Beside him, Su Tianyi and others looked dejected and helpless.

…

Since Chu Kuangren began his visit to each large sage orthodoxy, many people had started to keep an eye on his every move.

It was inevitable; he attracted too much attention.

He went to the Royal Azure Dynasty and became their Prince.

He went to the School of White Lotus and became a Bachelor Sage.

He went to the Taixu Temple and easily defeated their lord.

Now the whole of the Azure Dragon Domain was guessing what kind of drama he would cause in the next sage orthodoxy.

While some people were already numb to Chu Kuangren’s continuous bouts of drama since the start. It was easy for them to just come to terms and move on with anything he did.

However, when news of what happened in the Dharma Sect spread, these numb cultivators still had the shock of their life.

Acquiring all eight thousand methods in the stele forest in half a day?!

Are you saying a human did that?

“The stele forest’s eight thousand methods may not be much, but it’s still eight thousand of them! Ten methods a day will still add up to several years!”

“Eight thousand methods in half a day? What kind of fairytale are you telling me?”

“Impossible!”

When the news first got out, everyone’s first reaction was disbelief, but too many cultivators had witnessed the event firsthand that day. Hence many people confirmed it, and it soon became the truth.

Even so, that was not the only news going around.

Some people even said that Chu Kuangren had won the Dharma Sect Master in a spar.

Others said that he spent less than a day mastering all of their Dao techniques.

When the rumors were confirmed, everyone was shaken to the bone.

What was the Dharma Sect known for?

They had so many diverse Dao techniques that it made up ninety percent of the world’s techniques.

So many that even the past Sect Masters dare not proclaim that they had mastered them all. Yet somehow, Chu Kuangren had acquired them all in two days?

How did one expect people to take the news, if not shocked?

“Why didn’t Chu Kuangren go to heaven?!”

“F*ck this. How does someone like him exist? Is he the reincarnation of some God? If not, how is he so terrifying?!”

“The possibility is definitely there.”

“I’ve spent years working hard to acquire only one Supreme Technique, and he gets eight thousand methods in half a day? Why do I even try?”

“Scary. So scary.”

“My goodness. He’s a monster.”

This sent the Azure Dragon Domain into a state of shock — the kind of shock that could be felt throughout the whole Firmament Star and heavens.

Even though many people believed it, some were still skeptical.

“Eight thousand methods in half a day? Only a Heavenly Emperor could do that, and Chu Kuangren is still far from it.”

The newly appointed Daoist of Sacred Lands of Serene Wisdom, Ao Chang, also had doubts.

“The Dharma Sect is a sage orthodoxy, and you’re telling me he acquired everything in two days? That’s a horrible joke. Even if it were true, acquiring a technique doesn’t mean he can use it. You’ll just weigh yourself down by forcibly acquiring so many techniques.”

Zhiyang Valley’s Lin Batian spoke his mind behind Ao Chang.

His words garnered plenty of support from other people.

In terms of Dao techniques, more does not equal better. There are many aspects to balance, and learning too many just complicates things.

Learning everything just leads to subpar performance in everything. Truly powerful cultivators only focus on a few Dao techniques.

The Sacred Lands of Serene Wisdom and Zhiyang Valley’s Daoists spoke in turn, each expressing their doubts. Chu Kuangren’s Black Heaven Sect would not just take that lying down.

“Forcibly acquiring? Please. Why don’t you go ahead and try to ‘forcibly acquire’ eight thousand methods? Don’t say the grapes are sour just because you can’t eat them. Some people really are laughable.” Nangong Huang retorted.

“Indeed. Who is this new Daoist from the Sacred Lands of Serene Wisdom anyway? Criticizing my Bachelor Sage…”

The School of White Lotus chimed in supportively.

“Anyone that slanders my husband is an enemy of the Royal Azure Dynasty.” Princess Linglong added.

What a marvelous sight it was to see three great sage orthodoxies unanimously support Chu Kuangren.
