The sword qi hurricane swept everywhere, causing the whole Astral Illusory Realm to tremble!
When the hurricane subsided, a person could be seen standing upright while another person was kneeling!
Chu Kuangren had his longsword pressed against Jian Sanjue’s shoulder as the latter knelt on the ground. Jian Sanjue’s expression was very gloomy at that time, and he was kneeling as he had lost a large portion of soul energy from his defeat.
“I lost!”
Jian Sanjue said with a deep sigh.
Chu Kuangren dispelled the longsword in his hand and said, “No need to be ashamed because it’s just me that you’ve lost to!”
Everyone looked at each other.
‘How arrogant must he be to say that?’
‘So losing to you despite joining forces was an honor?’
Obviously, they did not say it out loud.
That was because only the winner had the right to decide what to say.
On the other hand, they were now… losers!
“I shall challenge you again!”
Jian Sanjue stood up and said seriously. He could sense that his sword intent had become more polished from that fight with Chu Kuangren.
If he could further refine his sword techniques, his combat strength would eventually reach a higher level.
He might even have to thank Chu Kuangren because of that fact alone.
“I’ll be waiting.”
Chu Kuangren said calmly.
He was not bothered at all by his opponent’s challenge. After all, anyone whom he had defeated would never stand a chance of winning against him. They could only stare at his silhouette and try to keep up with him from behind until he eventually left them in the dust far away…
After defeating four Immortal Progenies, the whole Astral Illusory Realm began trembling violently. Countless rays of light could be seen swirling in the void before turning into a magenta-colored altar.
“Congratulations, Chu Kuangren. My inheritance is yours.”
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal’s voice echoed. “Now, come and stand on top of this altar. I shall then impart to you everything I understand about the Dao and my lifetime’s cultivation experience to help you become an Immortal in the future.”
The other four people’s eyes burned with desire upon hearing that.
Pseudo Immortals were beings who had witnessed the glory of becoming an Immortal. As such, they were much more experienced than the Heavenly Daoist Celestials.
If they were to obtain the Pseudo Immortal’s cultivation experience and use it for their benefit, it would help them to progress further on the path of becoming an Immortal.
“Hah! A Pseudo Immortal’s cultivation experience?”
Chu Kuangren chuckled as he flew onto the altar.
Suddenly, the altar trembled while several patterns of light swirled around it.
Four pillars of light soon rose into the sky, forming an enchanted boundary around the altar, trapping Chu Kuangren within.
The other Immortal Progenies then looked at each other. They had a feeling that something was not right.
“What is going on?”
“Is this enchanted boundary made to prevent us from attacking him?”
“No, take a closer look.”
Four magenta-colored chains soon appeared from the four pillars of light, restraining Chu Kuangren’s arms and legs. It did not look like the enchanted boundary was to protect him but to prevent Chu Kuangren from escaping instead.
“Haha, it worked!”
A burst of laughter rang out.
An elderly man in magenta-colored robes appeared on the altar and looked at Chu Kuangren delightfully. “A Daoist Celestial who is only thirty-nine years old and possesses the poise of an Immortal? What a splendid Immortal Progeny!”
Everyone’s expression changed when they saw the elderly man.
“It’s the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal!”
“That’s not right. Didn’t the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal leave the Violet Gold Galaxy? Why would he be here?!”
“What the h*ll is going on? Unless left inside this Astral Illusory Realm isn’t the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal’s consciousness. It’s his soul!”
The Immortal Progenies were all in shock. On the other hand, Chu Kuangren, who was bound on top of the altar, remained calm and was not panicking at all.
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal was a little surprised to see that. “Chu Kuangren, are you pretending to be calm, or did you really see this coming?”
“Oh, why don’t you take a guess?”
Chu Kuangren said playfully as he looked at the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal with a gaze that pierced the very depths of his soul. It was as if a predator had found its prey.
It was as if Chu Kuangren was not the one trapped but the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal instead!
“Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal, what is going on?”
At that moment, Jin Feiyi could not help but ask.
“Ha! What’s about to happen is none of your concern. Just sit back and watch. Don’t worry. Chu Kuangren has already taken the bait, so I won’t bring harm to you guys,” said the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal.
However, the four Immortal Progenies were still feeling uneasy.
Everything happened too fast.
The four of them were still nervous as they could not understand what was happening.
“Oh, why don’t I do the honors of explaining everything?”
The trapped Chu Kuangren chuckled.
Everyone looked at him and frowned a little. ‘He’s the one on the chopping block. How can he still laugh?’
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal looked at Chu Kuangren interestingly too.
He wanted to hear what Chu Kuangren had to say.
“The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal is actually dead.”
Chu Kuangren started to explain, beginning with an astonishing fact.
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal’s expression turned a little grim when he heard that.
“To be precise, the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal’s physical body has died. We’re currently looking at his remnant soul. His main motive was to take over someone’s body and live a second life. However, how could he, a great and mighty Pseudo Immortal, be willing to take over an ordinary cultivator’s body? If he had to, taking over Immortal Progenies, such as us, would be the better choice.”
“By taking over an Immortal Progeny’s body, he could stand a chance to become an Immortal in the future. That was why he spread false rumors about leaving the galaxy and preparing an Ancient Legacy Planet. By using the ancient planet as bait, he lured us Immortal Progenies so that he could pick the best one among us as his target. Am I right?”
Chu Kuangren chuckled.
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal laughed. “I can’t believe you managed to deduce my true intentions even though you’re trapped in such a perilous situation. Chu Kuangren, besides that outstanding talent of yours, it seems that you have a great intellect as well.”
Everyone’s face turned grim at that explanation.
They then looked at the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal with an extremely cold expression. Having been played like that, no one would be pleased about it.
“Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal, this is an act of war against Planet Zi!”
“My people from Planet Jin will never forgive you if anything happens to me.”
Despite the threats, the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal replied indifferently, “If I can relive another life as an Immortal Progeny, so what if I end up an enemy of an Immortal civilization? With the poise of an Immortal and my cultivation experience as a Pseudo Immortal, my chances of becoming an Immortal will greatly increase in this new life.
“Not to mention that with treasured locations like the Fragmented Immortal World will emerge soon, I, the Violet Blood, will certainly become an Immortal!!”
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal had an ambitious look on his face. “I will never be the same as I was in my past life, undergoing closed-door meditations for several eras to become an Immortal only to fully exhaust my energy and potential. And in the end, I died from going mad. If it weren’t for this Astral Illusory Realm, I’m afraid even my remnant soul wouldn’t have been saved.”
“Alright. It’s about time we get down to business. Chu Kuangren, I’m now going to devour your soul and take over your body.” The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal unleashed a palm attack onto Chu Kuangren. Following that, the four magenta chains started rattling non-stop as a surge of menacing energy released from them. That energy was rapidly wearing down Chu Kuangren’s soul energy.
Countless sparks of light flew out from Chu Kuangren’s body.
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal opened his mouth and swallowed all those sparks of light. He was visibly overjoyed. “What pure soul energy! Chu Kuangren, it’s truly been a blessing to meet someone like you.”
“Oh, do you think you can absorb all of my energy?”
Chu Kuangren chuckled.
“I suggest you give up trying to resist. This Soul Refining Altar is specially used to refine a person’s soul. Besides, you’ve gone through a huge battle earlier. I bet that half of your soul energy has been depleted from that. How can you possibly fight back?”
The Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal sneered.
He was determined to obtain Chu Kuangren’s soul.. Only by devouring Chu Kuangren’s Soul could the Violet Blood Pseudo Immortal take over and merge with Chu Kuangren’s body properly. Then, it would allow him to unleash his full potential as an Immortal Progeny in his second life!
