Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

“It’s just a small thing, nothing to worry about.”

Chu Kuangren chuckled.

Those words of his were spoken with a tone that was neither loud nor soft, but it was straight to the point.

The crowd of disciples outside the Distant Day Palace Hall had wanted to rebut at that statement but could not find the words to do so.

In fact, they were rather speechless so to speak.

A few of the sky-prides even had a look of despair on their faces. They all felt begrudged and frustrated.

“With Junior Chu around, all of the sky-prides in this world have been reduced to mediocrity.” The Taixu Temple Lord looked at Chu Kuangren and said.

“I … dare not deny the Temple Lord’s words.”

1

Chu Kuangren did not look humble at all.

It was because, from his perspective, that was truly an established fact. Even a Young Emperor would not be able to fight back if they were to face him.

If that was already the case with a Young Emperor, then what about the other so-called sky-prides?

It seemed as though no one could be qualified as sky-prides before Chu Kuangren.

The corners of the Taixu Temple Lord’s mouth twitched. This was the first time he came across such an arrogant person, who lacked any sense of humbleness at all.

The name ‘Chu Kuangren’ truly was given correctly.

“After you, Temple Lord,” Chu Kuangren gently said. He could not wait to mentally spar with the Honorable Supreme who sat before him.

“No. You’re a junior cultivator and also our esteemed guest. After you.”

“Then I shall take up your offer then.”

Daoist Rhyme surrounded Chu Kuangren as the Sword of the Heavens materialized above his head and then, multiple sword rays shot out towards the Taixu Temple Lord.

“What a deadly and sharp Sword-based Daoist Rhyme, not bad.” The Taixu Temple Lord chuckled as a gust of ethereal looking Daoist Rhymes gathered around him and turned into a rolling sea of clouds which enveloped around the sword rays.

In an instant, the countless sword rays disappeared without a trace.

Chu Kuangren was not surprised. It would be surprising if the Taixu Temple Lord’s Daoist technique was not strong enough to block a few of his sword rays instead.

“Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique!”

Without hesitation, Chu Kuangren immediately deployed his Sage Ruler Technique’s Daoist Rhyme.

A surge of immeasurably lethal Daoist Rhyme rose up. Following that, the Sword of Heaven shook slightly and a domineering purple sword ray instantly shot out.

Although it was not imbued with spiritual power, the mere Daoist Rhyme in that attack alone was sufficient to scare most people to their deaths. Numerous sky-prides outside the Distant Day Palace Hall went pale with fear and their lips turned purple upon seeing that sword ray. They could only feel how insignificant they were.

“If he were to deploy such a Daoist technique against me yesterday during the mental spar, I’m afraid my Daoist core would have been greatly affected,” Wuchen Zi uttered in fright.

Not only him, but a few of the Taixu Temple’s elders were also shocked by that display of power. They had realized that even they themselves could not hope to conjure up such a strong technique like that. Chu Kuangren’s understanding of Daoism was already at such a deeply refined level!

“Ha, what an interesting Sage Ruler Technique. What a splendid Single Strike Technique indeed!” the Taixu Temple Lord exclaimed. Even he had to stay cautious before Chu Kuangren’s Daoist techniques.

As Daoist Rhyme started to swirl and the sea of clouds started to roll again, the Taixu Temple Lord’s Daoist Rhyme surged forth to shroud the domineering purple sword ray within itself.

Purple flashes of light flickered within the layer of clouds before they burst open and as if a strong wind had blown, the two surges of Daoist Rhymes were instantly swept through the Distant Day Palace Hall.

The candle lights around the area flickered while the doors and windows creaked…

“Young junior, try this technique of mine.” The Taixu Temple Lord smiled as used his Daoist technique to form a few clusters of clouds which then headed towards Chu Kuangren.

How could an Honorable Supreme’s Daoist techniques be that simple?

Even if those were Supreme Techniques, Chu Kuangren still gave it his one hundred and twenty percent effort as he continuously deployed his Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique.

One after another, the sword rays shuttled back and forth around Chu Kuangren, shattering the incoming cluster of clouds that were headed towards him.

No matter what technique the Taixu Temple Lord used or what mysterious Transformations were formed, Chu Kuangren merely used that one sword, as if that sword was all he had.

However, that one sword alone was enough to stun everyone.

“By the gods, Chu Kuangren is truly capable of mentally sparring with the Taixu Temple Lord. And look at how young he is now, this is just too unbelievable.’

“That’s right, how can someone like this exist in this world?”

“No wonder the three great sage orthodoxies are willing to give him protection. A sky-pride like him will possess limitless possibilities in the future!”

Every onlooker was dumbfounded by that match. Some of them even took the opportunity to review their knowledge of Daoism as they watched on with a dazed look.

Even the Honorables felt that they had learned something.

As time went by, nearly half an hour had passed. The Taixu Temple Lord’s Daoist techniques became increasingly stronger as he kept testing the bounds of Chu Kuangren’s limit.

“Brother Chu, I’m afraid your sword won’t be able to stop this attack now.” Feeling that time was right, the Taixu Temple Lord chuckled.

Daoist Rhyme started to circulate as a large sun rose through the sea of clouds and shot out a golden ray of sunlight. It was the Taixu Temple Lord’s Sage Ruler Technique, Sunlight Overdrive Destruction!

The golden ray of sunlight immediately shattered the sword ray and headed directly towards Chu Kuangren. When everyone saw that scene, they secretly knew that the match was ending!

Being able to mentally spar with the Taixu Temple Lord was already an amazing and rare feat that Chu Kuangren had achieved in this world.

However, at that moment, there was a sudden change to the Daoist Rhymes around Chu Kuangren as white lotuses began to gather together and hold down that golden ray.

It was the White Lotus Light of Purification!

The Taixu Temple Lord was shocked. “What a marvelous technique. It’s very similar to the School of White Lotus’s Light of Purification, but is even more delicate and refined.”

“Is this why the School of White Lotus conferred you as their Bachelor Sage?”

Chu Kuangren did not answer. The Sword of the Heavens above his head shook as the Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique’s Daoist Rhyme appeared once again and a sword ray was shot out once again.

However, a golden ray of sunlight then shot out from the great sun amongst the sea of clouds once again and shattered the sword ray. The Taixu Temple Lord’s Daoist techniques were too powerful.

Although Chu Kuangren had the White Lotus Light of Purification, his Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique still could not breach through the Taixu Temple’s defenses.

“Good effort, young lad.” The Taixu Temple Lord uttered before he engaged the full strength of his Daoist Technique, and a domineering Daoist Rhyme pushed forth.

The white lotuses around Chu Kuangren began to tremble like flowers in a violent storm, as if they would immediately shatter within the next instant.

“As expected of the Honorable Supreme. Your Daoist techniques are truly remarkable.”

“That’s the furthest point I can reach?”

Chu Kuangren held on and withstood the attack with his White Lotus Light of Purification.

“No, it’s still not enough.”

“My Daoist techniques can still be better!”

Just when the Taixu Temple Lord thought that the match was going to end, Chu Kuangren did something unpredictable — he slowly closed his eyes.

“What is he doing?”

Everyone was extremely confused.

The Taixu Temple Lord frowned but he maintained his attack.

At that moment, every single technique and experience that Chu Kuangren had learned in the past flashed through the depths of his mind.

Gradually, the Daoist Rhyme within his body became increasingly stronger, which caused the originally near-shattering white lotus to restabilize.

“How is this possible?” The Taixu Temple Lord’s expression suddenly changed.

Then, Chu Kuangren suddenly opened his eyes and a frightening flash of light flickered in his gaze. “Temple Lord, please take this technique of mine!”

Hum!

The Sword of the Heavens began to tremble before a domineering and terrifying Sword-based Daoist Rhyme swept out like a crashing tide on a stormy sea.

That Sword-based Daoist Rhyme enveloped the whole Taixu Temple, causing numerous swordsmen’s blades to let out an uncontrollable shriek.

A single sword ray emerged from the Sword of the Heavens. Its pure Daoist Rhyme attack made the Taixu Temple Lord’s pupils shrink.

“Sunlight Overdrive Destruction!”

As the great sun radiated with light, a beam of sun ray shot out.

However, the sun ray was brutally shattered the moment it collided with the sword ray. Like an arrow hitting its target, the sword ray shot through the sea of clouds and landed on the great sun, shattering the Daoist Rhyme Transformation.

The Taixu Temple Lord’s body trembled as his face was filled with shock.

Chu Kuangren glanced at him calmly and asked, “How’s that for a sword attack?”

“I… I lost.”
