Chapter 1767 - 1767 Gu Qingshan’s Provocation, The Heavenly Sword’s Ultimate Intent, Adequate

1767 Gu Qingshan’s Provocation, The Heavenly Sword’s Ultimate Intent, Adequate

Inside the Spiritual Sword Tribe, Chu Kuangren was now being questioned by the Ancient Prodigies.

However, he remained calm. Everyone’s questioning seemed like nothing to him, like it was just a breeze in the wind. He was not bothered at all.

As everyone’s sword aura gradually intensified, Chu Kuangren’s eyes flickered. Then, his body trembled a little, and an incredibly chilling sword aura erupted, forcing all the Ancient Prodigies back!

“Now, where did all of you find the courage to act with such insolence before the Heavens?!”

“Hmph, you’re nothing but a cheap imitation of the Heavenly Sword. How dare you proclaim yourself as the Heavens! You must have a death wish!”

One of the Prodigies snorted coldly. A ‘swish’ sounded as he unsheathed his sword.

A sword ray containing a terrifying Arch Gilded Intent shot toward Chu Kuangren like a bolt of lightning!

Hum!

That chilling sword ray immediately dispersed!

That sword was held between Chu Kuangren’s two fingers and could not budge!

“What!”

That Prodigy’s expression changed slightly. Then, he channeled his Immortal’s Core energy to the limit. However, his efforts were futile.

“Drawing arms before the Heavens? You have brought upon your death!”

With a clang, the sword snapped in two!

One of the halves that had the tip of the sword was tossed out by Chu Kuangren. It immediately pierced that Prodigy’s neck and released huge amounts of sword qi on impact, crushing the Prodigy into nothing!

The ground was soaked and wet with blood.

Upon seeing that, the remaining Prodigies’ eyes widened in shock.

As Ancient Prodigies, none expected that Chu Kuangren could kill one of their own so easily. His strength was beyond them!

“Chu Kuang, stop this insolence at once!” said the Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader.

However, Chu Kuangren did not care and only shot an emotionless glare at him. When met with his cold gaze, the Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader could not help but feel chills run down his spine.

‘This aura’

The Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader gulped.

When he met Chu Kuangren for the first time, he was only a Trinity Flower Arch Gilded Immortal cultivator. Hence, he was still powerful enough to suppress Chu Kuangren.

However, Chu Kuangren was now a Great Perfected Arch Gilded Immortal elite.

Despite also being a fellow Great Perfected Arch Immortal elite, the Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader felt a feeling of indescribable pressure from Chu Kuangren.

It was as if it would only be a simple matter if Chu Kuangren wished to kill him.

‘How How is this possible?’

‘How did he become so powerful in just a few years?’

‘What exactly has he gone through?’

The Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader did not dare to believe it, and a sense of fear soon overcame him. ‘Can the Spiritual Sword Tribe control such a powerful sword?’

“Not everyone is allowed to address the Heavens as such. But considering you’re the leader of this tribe, the Heavens shall spare your life this time,” Chu Kuangren said calmly.

“You”

The Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader opened his mouth and wanted to speak. However, the Sword God King stopped him.

That was because someone had arrived.

Sounds of sword chimes reverberated from the Thousand Sword Peak in the distance, echoing throughout the area!

Following that, the swords left the mountain and rose into the sky. All of them were flying toward the Divine Sword Peak, where they landed and formed a great path made of swords!

Meanwhile, at the end of that great path made of swords on the Thousand Sword Peak, a young man in black robes was standing with both hands behind his back. He walked on the great path laid upon by thousands of swords, slowly approaching everyone.

It was as if an ultimate Sword Immortal had arrived!

Chu Kuangren looked at that person quietly. His face remained calm and emotionless.

“Not bad for a fake.”

The person who arrived was none other than Gu Qingshan. He was the Heavenly Sword who recently appeared in the Spiritual Sword Tribe!

With a raise of his hand, a sword came and hovered beside him. Then, he launched the sword at Chu Kuangren like a shooting star. Along with terrifying bursts of sword qi, the sword tore through the sky!

Boom!

Before that sword could get near Chu Kuangren, it was repelled by the protective sword qi around his body.

“Your foolishness of provoking the Heavens shall cost you your life!”

Chu Kuangren stood with both hands behind his back.

The moment a terrifying burst of sword aura erupted from him, the great path made from countless swords started trembling. One by one, the swords started to shatter and fall to the ground.

At that sight, Gu Qingshan’s eyes widened, and his sword intent erupted!

It was an extremely sharp and noble sword intent!

That sword intent carried the power that could make the world submit to it, and every sword in the surroundings started trembling. Meanwhile, many sword cultivators could seemingly see the pinnacle of Sword Dao from that sword intent!

That was the Heavenly Sword’s ultimate intent!

Upon noticing that sword intent, Chu Kuangren grinned a little. “I see. No wonder you dare stand before the Heavens. Your strength is pretty adequate!”

Adequate!

If any sky-prides in the Central Heaven Temple heard that, they would surely be shocked.

That was because, among all the sky-prides and Prodigies Chu Kuangren had faced, most were mere fodder who could not even take a single attack from him. Besides individuals like Di Qianqiu, no one else had made Chu Kuangren take interest in them before.

Yet, Chu Kuangren said he was adequate!

To countless sky-prides and Prodigies, that was already high praise!

However, that comment was very grating to Gu Qingshan.

He was the Heavenly Sword, after all!

He was the one who accepted the will of the Heavens, the Heavenly Sword that would stand on the precipice of Sword Dao in this era. However, his opponent only deemed his strength to be adequate?

To someone like him, that comment was a great insult.

“You’re quite arrogant for a fake, and you have provoked me!”

The moment he finished speaking, Gu Qingshan waved his arms.

In that instant, countless sharp swords were launched as projectiles toward Chu Kuangren at lightning speed. Terrifying and chilling sword qi was contained within every one of them.

Every single sword was powerful enough to shatter planets!

Chu Kuangren remained in his spot as surges of sword qi erupted from his body!

Boom, boom, boom!

The incoming swords collided non-stop with the sword qi, causing the surrounding area to blow up. In turn, the Divine Sword Peak started trembling.

Seeing that, the Sword God King tapped his foot gently.

Countless runes appeared around the Divine Sword Peak, making the whole area indestructible.

With the God King’s powers strengthening the surrounding area, the situation on the mountain stabilized.

Boom!

The fight continued.

It was sword qi against a barrage of swords, one sword intent against another!

“Is this the Heavenly Sword’s ultimate intent?!”

“Although there’s a difference between the two, these two sword intents are both at the pinnacle of Sword Dao. I’m afraid we’ll never be able to get to that level in this lifetime!”

The few Prodigies could not help but gasp.

After all, gaps of power still existed between Prodigies. As for Gu Qingshan and Chu Kuangren, both of those individuals were undoubtedly beings beyond their level!

“His sword intent”

Gu Qingshan looked at Chu Kuangren warily.

He did not proclaim to be the Heavenly Sword without any reason to back it up. As the Heavenly Sword appeared, all swords would submit to his rule!

The Heavenly Sword’s ultimate intent would have a suppressive effect against any Sword Dao cultivator in the universe!

That was the essential difference between them!

However, Gu Qingshan soon noticed that his Heavenly Sword’s ultimate intent had no effect on Chu Kuangren’s sword intent!

‘Furthermore, his sword intent is seemingly starting to suppress mine instead!’

‘How How is this possible?!’

‘How can someone in this world suppress even the Heavenly Sword’s ultimate intent?!’

That thought subconsciously appeared in Gu Qingshan’s mind.

“That’s not right. I have accepted the will of the Heavens to appear in this world. I am the true Heavenly Sword!”

“He’s only an obstacle in my way!”

The look in Gu Qingshan’s eyes became more determined, and a mysterious rune flashed in his eyes.
