Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws Chapter 182 Break Through The Limit, Insane Forty-Eighth Floor

Chapter 182: Break Through The Limit, Insane Forty-Eighth Floor
“Look, it’s someone from the Murong clan.”
“He has failed.”
“Thirty-eight floors. He only managed to get to the thirty-eighth floor.”
People started gossiping when they saw the guy who got sent out of the Sword Gauntlet.
Several other people too were transported out of the tower following this Murong guy’s acquittal. The few of them glanced at each other, looking extremely helpless.
“It’s too hard.”
“Yeah. It’s only the thirty-eighth floor and I’ve been asked to face an Honorable. I’m just a Battle Monarch, how could I have beaten such a thing? It’s way too difficult.”
“Tsk, I really have no idea how those Young Emperor sky-prides managed to pull through.”
“Hey, look. Chu Kuangren is currently in the lead.”
“Can’t say I’m surprised with that.”
Another few white lights flashed past and a few other people were kicked out of the tower.
They were sky-prides from several sage orthodoxies.
“D*mn it, there was only one last bit left before I could completely gain insight from that Sage Technique’s Daoist Rhyme. I was so close!”
A sky-pride from Tempest Mountain lamented.
Having only one hour to apprehend a Sage Technique, even though just a little Daoist Rhyme could very well have passed them, was still too arduous a task.
Only very few sky-prides could achieve that.
“Look, Chu Kuangren has reached the forty-fifth floor!”
“My word!”
Someone gasped in shock at that moment.
They could see that the bright spark which represented Chu Kuangren was leading by far.
“How is it possible for him to be so quick? Linghu Teng, Murong Yu, and Lunatic Swordsman are all still on the fortieth floor.”
One of the sky-prides said, unable to wrap his head around it.
“I don’t know if you guys have heard that three years ago in the Dharma Sect, Chu Kuangren took only half a day to finish gaining insight on the stele forest’s Eight Thousand Arts?”
“Yes, it’s true”
“No wonder he could climb up so quickly. This guy’s cognizance is on a different league than the rest of us.”
“It’s really frightening.”
Inside the Sword Gauntlet, with the incantation of his two traits — Rocksteady Daoist Core and Meditational Clarity — Chu Kuangren rose up the floors at a commanding speed.
Before long.
He arrived on the forty-eighth floor.
This floor was the highest record that anyone had ever reached in the history of the Sword Gauntlet. From its inception until now, nobody had been able to break through this.
Just as Chu Kuangren stepped foot into the forty-eighth floor, an incredibly sharp Sword-based Daoist Rhyme suddenly locked onto him.
A white shirt and faceless swordsman stood before him.
Chu Kuangren raised an eyebrow. “Oh, it’s this one again.”
He raised his hand and threw out a palm strike.
A majestic Daoist Rhyme suddenly erupted, crashing towards the faceless swordsman!
However, his opponent simply lifted his hand and let out a sword strike, easily shattering his palm strength. Chu Kuangren smiled faintly at that. “This seems more like it.”
With a metal clang, he pulled out the Descendant Self Sword from his scabbard!
An incredibly majestic and sharp Daoist Rhyme emanated from it. As if the faceless swordsman had noticed the incoming threat, the momentum on his body rapidly increased too.
“This swordsman can adjust his power based on my strength? Isn’t this too outrageous.” Chu Kuangren rolled his eyes. No wonder nobody had passed through the forty-eighth floor all these years.
This faceless swordsman could modify its strength based on one. If they were strong, he would then strengthen itself to become stronger than them.
How would this be a fair fight then?
He might as well raise his hands in the air and surrender.
“But now there’s the fun of a challenge.” A bright flash glinted in Chu Kuangren’s eyes as he took the initiative and charged towards his opponent first.
The moment the two of them clashed and their extremely terrifying Sword-based Daoist Rhymes collided head-on, the emanated sword qi crashed frenziedly against the whole Sword Gauntlet.
Outside the Sword Gauntlet.
The crowd sensed something amiss.
“I’m not sure if I’m hallucinating, but I felt the Sword Gauntlet quiver just now.”
“Eh, you felt that too? So did I.”
“What’s going on?”
“The source of this quiver came from the forty-eighth floor of the Sword Gauntlet. Is Chu Kuangren battling with someone?”
“Wow, the forty-eighth floor huh? Since the existence of Sword Gauntlet, nobody had been able to push through this floor. Do you think Chu Kuangren can break this record and make history?”
The Sages fixed their gazes on the forty-eighth floor as well.
Right now, only Chu Kuangren was on the forty-eighth floor while the rest of the sky-prides, including those three Young Emperors, were all stopped at the corridor murals.
“The obstacle on that forty-eighth floor is downright horrifying. That swordsman has the ability to increase its battle strength infinitely, so it will forever be stronger than you. I have absolutely no idea how one could pass that,” one of the Sages said with a shake of the head.
“That’s right, I wonder if Chu Kuangren could figure out a way?”
…
Inside the Sword Gauntlet.
Chu Kuangren swung out his sword, casting the Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique.
A colossal Emperor’s Aura was emitted, which rippled through the entire Sword Gauntlet. This one sword strike was so petrifying that even a Supreme Honorable would not be able to defend against it.
Even so, the sword qi on that faceless swordsman’s body then condensed before he let out a sword strike as well. The incredible majestic sword qi was not the slightest bit weaker than Chu Kuangren’s.
In fact, it was even stronger!
When the two forces collided, Chu Kuangren was forced back about ten feet.
Ever since Chu Kuangren descended to this world, this was the first time he felt himself breaking a cold sweat.
It was not fear, but excitement.
“Honorables are not my match. I can slay Supreme Honorables too. As for those sky-prides who are in the same batch as me, none of them could even warrant me a second look.”
“I may not be able to defeat a Sage, but nobody under the Sage level could defeat me. So all this while, I’ve never had the privilege of a satisfying battle.”
“Today, I can finally give in my all and fight till the very end!”
Chu Kuangren was not a single bit frightened by the notion that he might die here.
This was not because he had the Immortal Body, but because the Sword Gauntlet had some kind of protective mechanism as well, wherein times of a real fatal threat, it would automatically transport said person out.
Chu Kuangren tightened his grip on the Descendant Self Sword and dashed towards his opponent.
Many different kinds of techniques were constantly cast from his hands — Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique, White Lotus Light of Purification, Phantom Light Strike, Human Mountain Seal…
Every single one of these cultivation techniques would have shocked the normal folks when performed in the outside world.
Nine Heaven Sword Prison, Green Lotus Sword Song, Sword of the Heavens…
His Three Great Daoist Physique Transformations were unleashed!
The Five Supreme Foundation Levels glittered with dazzling divine rays inside his body as spiritual power whizzed and poured out from his body like a frenzied torrent of waters, slamming into the void.
At this moment, Chu Kuangren looked like a swordsmanship war god. Every single move he made had an earth-shattering, apocalyptic kind of horrifying energy.
Meanwhile, the sword qi which came from the faceless swordsman was extremely terrifying too.
Once Chu Kuangren became powerful, his adversary became even more powerful!
There were several occasions where Chu Kuangren almost could not hold himself through.
In spite of that, his concentration was kept on high and he focused his attention entirely on the battle. He was currently in an extremely high-pressured state.
Throughout this process, he felt as though his utilization of Dao Techniques had become even more masterful as the spiritual mound inside his body tremble.
The spiritual qi around him accumulated towards him which, against all odds, allowed him to step into the Perfected Battle Monarch Realm. He had broken through his limit in this battle!
“Have I broken through my limit?!”
“Very well, I can’t wait to see if you can get any stronger!”
Chu Kuangren was visibly delighted. Then, he dashed towards his opponent again with his battle strength greater than before, sending the whole forty-eighth floor into a chaotic quake.
“Break!” Chu Kuangren seized the opportunity and struck out with the Descendant Self Sword. The tremendously ferocious energy immediately swept the faceless swordsman off his feet, and the majestic sword qi wrecked wanton on the faceless swordsman’s body, tearing it apart and shattering it into smithereens!
“Phew, have I succeeded?” Chu Kuangren was slightly short of breath.
However, he saw the sword qi which had emanated in the air condense right before him, forming into the faceless swordsman again. Moreover, the sword qi on its body was even more powerful now.
“Godd*mn it!”
Even Chu Kuangren could not resist a curse word.
This was absolutely bonkers.
It was an indestructible being whose power was forever stronger than yours. Was this forty-eighth floor really possible for any human to pass through?
He had come to a point where he started to suspect if the host of this Sword Gauntlet had no intentions for people to pass through.
“If this was designed to not let anyone through, then this forty-eighth floor didn’t need to exist in the first place, what more the forty-ninth floor and up. There must be something that I’m missing here, some key concept that I have yet to figure out,” Chu Kuangren mumbled to himself.
