Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws Chapter 344 The Chapter Landscape, The Empyrean Walkers Have Appeared

Chapter 344: The Changing Landscape, The Empyrean Walkers Have Appeared
Chu Kuangren appeared above the waters.
His reappearance had shocked many Sages who were secretly observing the sea.
‘This b*stard’s not dead yet!’
Chu Kuangren was aware that he was being watched by many Sages but did not mind. Instead, he remarked, “The Scaled Tribe killed hundreds of thousands of my people. For each life they took, I’ve made sure that I take a thousand of theirs!”
“This is all solely my own doing! If any of you Sages are unhappy with it, feel free to be my guest!”
Ignoring the dumbfounded Sages, Chu Kuangren flashed and vanished above the sea, leaving the spiritual thoughts of the Sages behind as they continued to discuss with one another.
They were especially concerned about Chu Kuangren’s action when they looked upon the sea of corpses.
“Hey… are those dried corpses?”
Just then, one of the Sages made a peculiar observance.
They realized that most of the floating corpses were dried out!
“Why do these dried corpses look so familiar?”
One of the Sages said in shock.
“Doesn’t it look similar to the bodies of victims who were killed by the Headless Lady on the unnamed island? Their life essences have been sucked dry.”
Only then did the Sages figure out the truth.
The Headless Lady had left behind such an unforgettable scene on the unnamed island that they could recall it immediately.
Suddenly, the Sages were able to connect the dots to the Emperor Aura that erupted within the sea not too long ago.
“Could it be that the Headless Lady appeared while CHu Kuangren was battling the Scaled Tribe and she proceeded to kill all of their members?”
“Is Chu Kuangren related to the Headless Lady?”
Many Sages felt hopeless when it came to defeating the Headless Lady, and to think that Chu Kuangren was somehow related to the Headless Lady…
It gave them goosebumps all over their bodies.
“Chu Kuangren shall not be provoked!”
“If he’s indeed related to her, it doesn’t matter even if we have ten Great Sages on our side.”
The Sages were extremely fearful of Chu Kuangren.
…
After leaving the sea, Chu Kuangren returned to the Snowstorm Sect. It had only been slightly more than a day since he last left.
Once Chu Kuangren had cleaned up the corpses along the shore, Lil Red, the Godly Phoenix, quickly flew to him the moment she sensed his presence
“Brother, you’re back. Are you okay?”
“I’m fine.”
Chu Kuangren nodded.
Chu Kuangren then turned to the Snowstorm Sect Leader, who arrived along with Lil Red, and said, “The Black Heaven Sect will assist the Snowstorm Sect in rebuilding their territories. Regarding the Scaled Tribe, I’m sure they won’t come here anymore.”
A remnant killing intent flashed across Chu Kuangren’s eyes.
That killing intent struck fear deep within anyone close to him.
The Snowstorm Sect Leader knew that the Scaled Tribe had provoked the wrong person, and they must have suffered mass casualties on their side.
Their Sages might have perished in the aftermath too.
However, not even the Snowstorm Sect Leader could imagine just how big of a genocide Chu Kuangren had committed on the Scaled Tribe.
“Thank you, Sect Leader.” The Snowstorm Sect Leader expressed his gratitude with a fist salute.
“No worries.”
The affair of rebuilding was then left in the Snowstorm Sect’s good hands. All that was left was to have Elder Ruyan send some manpower over to assist in the task.
Soon.
The entire Firmament Star had caught wind of Chu Kuangren’s genocide of the Scaled Tribe.
From the Four Domains to the outer sea, every single person was shocked.
To kill so many sentient lives within a single day was almost unheard of since ancient times.
Not even the long-living Sages had witnessed such an incidence before in their lifetime.
As time passed, Chu Kuangren’s notoriety in the Four Domains and the outer seas soared even further.
Everyone was afraid of the infamous lunatic.
While Chu Kuangren was gaining widespread recognition, there was also a gradual increase in the appearance of young sky-prides whom no one knew where they came from.
These sky-prides possessed remarkable combat strengths that could rival even a Sage. These sky-prides shared a common name.
They were known as… the empyrean walkers!
These cultivators originated from some of the most unknown lands in Firmament Star. Even Sages had limited knowledge of their origins and whereabouts.
…
Somewhere in Firmament Star.
In a glamorous pagoda that was suspended in the air.
An elder was sitting with his knees crossed.
A handsome young man who was dressed in black robes appeared and bowed politely to the elder. He said, “Greetings, Honorable Master.”
“Ye Xin, you’ll leave the Big Dipper Palace tomorrow, so be sure to make the Big Dipper Palace proud in this Era of Great Battles. I’ve got a list of sky-prides whom you should pay attention to. These people may well be your opponents.”
The elder retrieved a list and passed it to Ye Xin.
Ye Xin took the list and said nonchalantly, “I think you’re overthinking, Honourable Master. Although there are many sky-prides out there, most of them aren’t even a Sage. How could they possibly defeat me?”
“My true opponents are the other empyrean walkers!”
“Wait a minute!”
Suddenly, Ye Xin was startled.
That was because he noticed that the first name on his list was written in a red marker.
It served to highlight the importance of that person.
“Chu Kuangren… Who’s this person?”
Ye Xin was curious.
At the sound of that name, the elder turned silent for a moment before he answered, “He’s probably the most formidable opponent you’ll ever face. He’s one of the most unpredictable anomalies that’s ever existed in the past hundred and fifty thousand years!”
Ye Xin frowned.
Judging from the grim look on his master’s face, it seemed like this person was a big deal!
An unwavering battle spirit suddenly lit up in Ye Xin.
“Chu Kuangren… Now I wish to challenge him to a battle.”
“Remember to avoid becoming his enemy at all cost!”
The elder advised solemnly.
“Understood.”
…
In another location.
In a dark grand hall.
A black-robed young cultivator was sitting with his knees crossed and some menacing skulls floating around him. The grand hall was filled with a grim aura while its pillars were covered in thick layers of snow.
The youngster slowly got up and peeked outside the grand hall. “How exciting to finally be able to leave Acheron Manor! I wonder what formidable opponents await me out there!”
“Wu Dao, aside from the other empyrean walkers, you must pay close attention to one more person. I’m afraid he’s a greater threat than most of the empyrean walkers you’ll face.”
A frail voice echoed within the grand hall.
The youngster was curious. “Oh, who is it?”
“The Black Heaven Sect Leader… Chu Kuangren!”
…
“Remember to tread lightly should you cross paths with Chu Kuangren. His combat strength is almost equivalent to a Great Sage!”
Some chatters could be heard in a library.
The person speaking was a middle-aged cultivator in white clothes.
Before him was a young cultivator in green robes who was surrounded by sharp sword qi.
“Yes, Master.” The youngster nodded, yet his eyes were beaming with excitement.
…
Within the Firmament Star, many orthodoxies from the unknown lands had sent their strongest sky-prides into the Era of Great Battle to fight for their destiny.
The Battle of Sky-Prides was about to enter the next chapter.
