Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Winds howled amidst the snowfall on Frost Dragon Mountain. A crowd was out in the open, yet not a single voice could be heard.
A dead silence had befallen everyone.
Looking at the white figure standing in the snow, they were in disbelief at what just happened.
Three Gilded Immortals were attacking that figure in white. With their combined powers, there was no way anyone among the younger generation could survive their attacks. Even a Lower Third Grade Gilded Immortal would find it hard to stay alive.
Yet, despite facing such a lineup of opponents, Chu Kuangren managed to counter them!
!!
Furthermore, of the three Gilded Immortals, he even managed to kill one and critically injure the other two!
As for him, he emerged unscathed after their battle!
“He’s a real monster!”
A figure could not help but gasp as he watched from the sky.
That person was a Gilded Immortal from the Holy Violet Pavilion. At that moment, he was looking at Chu Kuangren with horror.
‘If Chu Kuangren already possesses such terrifying power as a True Immortal, when he becomes a Gilded Immortal, how frightening will he become?’
“He must not be allowed to exist any longer! We must not let him become any stronger! Otherwise, the Immortal Hall shall face an unprecedented threat!” that Gilded Immortal thought and mumbled to himself.
As of now, he could only place every hope he had on the Holy Violet Imperial Commander.
On the battlefield, the two surviving Gilded Immortals swallowed with fear as they looked at Chu Kuangren. Both of them were overcome by horror.
“Blade of Zhou, Tyrannical Ascension!”
Chu Kuangren held his Descendant Self Sword, and the Dao Proclamation Seals integrated with his sword soon lit up one after another. Then, his sword qi locked onto one of the Gilded Immortals!
However, just when that Gilded Immortal became even more horrified, someone appeared in front of him and blocked that sword ray from attacking him!
That person was the Iceworm Fourth Elder!
His cultivation level had reached the Seventh-Grade Gilded Immortal Realm!
As such, he was considered an elite even among the Gilded Immortals.
“Oh, it’s about time you join in!”
Chu Kuangren’s apathetic gaze landed on the Iceworm Fourth Elder. There was not a single sign of fear or caution on him despite facing a much more powerful foe.
“Your combat strength is much more terrifying than I imagined. Even as a Seventh-grade Gilded Immortal, I suppose I won’t suffer much of a karmic repercussion.”
The Iceworm Fourth Elder said coldly, “You’ve killed my son! Now, I’m going to take revenge for him! I’ll skin you alive and break your bones one by one!”
His initial plan was going very well before this.
He just had to wait for Iceworm Feng to gain Iceworm Ru Xue’s talents and skills. Once that was done, both he and his son would surely be the most influential people in the tribe!
However, Chu Kuangren’s appearance shattered all his plans.
“Oh, in that case, I don’t mind helping you out either! I’ll send you right down to hell to be reunited with your son!” Chu Kuangren chuckled.
“There’s no way you can survive in a fight with a Seventh-grade Gilded Immortal!” the Iceworm Fourth Elder said glumly.
Then, he stepped forth, and a dense Gilded Trait erupted from his body.
As he unleashed a punch attack, a surge of freezing qi much more powerful than the previous Gilded Immortals swept forward.
“Universal Life-Death Cycle!”
Chu Kuangren channeled the Life-Death Cycle to fend off the freezing qi.
“The Celestial Demon Physique’s divine ability, huh? It’s truly extraordinary. However, your cultivation level isn’t high enough!”
The Iceworm Fourth Elder raised his hand, suddenly increasing the power of his freezing qi and overpowering the Immortal Sparks from the Life-Death Cycle.
“Heavenly Frost Dragon Calamity!”
The freezing qi surrounding the whole area became denser.
Countless Daoist patterns were conjured in the air, gathering the surrounding winds and snow toward them to form a gigantic, ferocious, and berserk frost dragon!
Not only did the berserk dragon have an incomparably terrifying ice energy, but it was also poisonous. Wherever it went, every living being had withered and wilted away!
That was the Iceworm Poison!
“Chu Kuangren, this attack shall mark the end of your Immortal journey!” the Iceworm Fourth Elder said indifferently as his berserk frost dragon charged forward.
“Universal Life-Death Cycle!”
“Great Black Hole Distortion!”
“Green Leaf Sword Ocean!”
Chu Kuangren unleashed each of his Immortal Physiques’ divine abilities in quick succession. However, his attacks were all futile as they shattered before the likes of that berserk frost dragon!
Finally, he was swallowed whole by that berserk dragon!
At that sight, everyone could not help but rub their eyes.
“Is this the end of Chu Kuangren?”
“I can’t believe the maddest person of this generation still failed to escape death.”
“What a shame.”
“Then again, it’s fine. If he doesn’t die, how can we possibly step into the limelight?”
The crowd of onlooking sky-prides was in disbelief. Some sighed in disappointment while some were overjoyed. They were already planning on how to display their strength in a new era without Chu Kuangren.
The great ones watching from space also felt relieved.
Although Chu Kuangren’s cultivation level was still not a threat to them, his achievements and feats had brought huge pressure on them.
With his death, it was as if a huge weight had been lifted off their shoulders.
“Wonderful. It looks like the other Prodigies can finally show what they’re made of.”
“That’s right. You have no idea how worried I am for the current Prodigies. I hope Chu Kuangren hasn’t traumatized them too much and affected their cultivation progress.”
“Great. Now that Chu Kuangren is dead–”
“Wait, something is not right!”
When one of the great ones used his Immortal Consciousness to verify Chu Kuangren’s death, he was shocked.
The eyelids of other great ones twitched when they heard that.
At Frost Dragon Mountain, the Iceworm Fourth Elder let out a cold grin. “No matter how much of a Prodigy you are, you’re nothing before the likes of a Seventh-grade Gilded Immortal!”
Just when he was proud that he had killed Chu Kuangren and put an end to that legend…
A golden beam of light suddenly shot into the sky from within the berserk frost dragon!
That was the light of the Gilded Trait — an incomparably dense Gilded Trait!
“What’s happening?!”
The Iceworm Fourth Elder’s expression shifted.
Boom!
Following that, an explosion erupted!
The berserk frost dragon immediately exploded under a surge of terrifying energy!
A figure walked out proudly amidst the endless snowfall. His dense Gilded Trait and tyrannical qi blood spread everywhere from his body. Instantly, the surrounding snow and frost evaporated.
“A Seventh-grade Gilded Immortal, huh? Is that all you’ve got?”
An apathetic voice sounded.
Seeing Chu Kuangren, who was now radiating brilliantly with golden light and countless Immortal Sparks, everyone’s jaw dropped in shock.
“The Gilded Physical Body Trait!”
“This is the complete Gilded Physical Body Trait exhibited all over his body! He’s a Gilded Immortal! He has broken through to the Gilded Immortal Realm with his raw physical strength! He’s a Physical Gilded Immortal!”
A Physical Gilded Immortal was rare compared to those who became a Gilded Immortal by increasing their cultivation level.
Unbeknownst to everyone, Chu Kuangren’s physical body had broken through to the Gilded Immortal Realm before his cultivation level!
The eyelids of the great ones in space immediately twitched.
“I knew it. There’s no way he’d die so easily.”
“A Physical Gilded Immortal, huh? He truly has kept this hidden well. No wonder the other Gilded Immortals didn’t suffer any karmic repercussions when they attacked him. It’s because he’s already a Gilded Immortal!”
“He must be the first person to break through to the Gilded Immortal Realm among the younger generation.”
“And doing so with his raw physical strength as well…”
Many great ones were lamenting that fact when the crushing pressure weighing upon them appeared again. However, it had gotten even heavier this time.
They were worried about their respective Prodigies.
How well could their Prodigies handle themselves before the likes of Chu Kuangren?
How were they going to fight against someone like him?
Unfortunately, those Prodigies were going to be traumatized in one way or the other.
Fully revealing his Gilded Physical Body Trait, Chu Kuangren allowed his Gilded Immortal aura to erupt. “I shall use a Seventh-grade Gilded Immortal like you to test my raw physical strength!” he said apathetically.
Then, he stepped forth and let out a great punch!
His terrifying qi and blood surged forth, accompanied by the roar of dragons and wild beasts.
Even a Seventh-grade Gilded Immortal like him was startled.
The Iceworm Fourth Elder channeled his Immortal Core energy to its fullest potential to resist that attack!
Boom!
As the two energies collided, the Iceworm Fourth Elder was sent flying hundreds of meters away, with his Immortal body trembling!
