1987 Peerless Warlord Lu Jun, God King Sikong Noticed Something Weird

Hong Yang was the last of the Seven Celestial Demons.

She had been tasked with a certain mission in the Void Battlefield, and now, she suddenly appeared before Chu Kuangren due to the changes to her mission.

“The demonic tides in the Dark Demonic Forbidden Lands have receded. It’s time for us to go in and awaken the Peerless Warlords. I’m here because of that,” Hong Yang said.

The Dark Demonic Forbidden Lands was a dangerous place within the Void Battlefield.

It was said that during the last universal war, the battle between the two universes got so fierce that multiple Peerless Warlords were heavily injured and sent into slumber.

The Forbidden Lands was shrouded by a large amount of strange demonic mist, which prevented entry for the common cultivators. In addition to the slumbering Peerless Warlords, the two universes stopped fighting, hence the closure of the Void Battlefield.

It was not until the recent opening of the Void Battlefield that Hong Yang was sent there to investigate the place, finding a way to awaken the Peerless Warlords.

After many years of slumber, their injuries should have more or less recovered.

Now, with the demonic tides receding, it would be a great chance to awaken them.

“Let’s go back and discuss,” Chu Kuangren said.

With that, they all returned to the defense line of Pan Gu Universe and entered the Deep Mind Dimension.

Everyone gathered for a meeting.

A bunch of ancient Embodiers looked at Chu Kuangren in embarrassing silence as they were all astonished by what Chu Kuangren had achieved.

On the battlefield, strength spoke louder than words. Hence, in terms of war achievements, Chu Kuangren had achieved a huge victory for Pan Gu Universe.

No one had achieved more than him since the reopening of the Void Battlefield.

That operation alone was more than enough to crown him a Peerless Warlord, but Chu Kuangren was not interested in that title.

He wanted to be king!

“Everyone, what’s your answer?” Chu Kuangren asked calmly.

Everyone knew what he was referring to.

Grand Darkness Celestial Demon took the lead and said, “From now on, I, Grand Darkness Celestial Demon, will be at your command, Immortal King.”

The others echoed. Even Buddha Lei Yin, Sin Buddha, and the others who had a grudge against Chu Kuangren decided to put their differences aside and accept his command.

They were not that ignorant to disregard the general situation of their universe.

Throughout all of Pan Gu Universe, there might still be a few who could rival Chu Kuangren in strength, but in terms of reputation, there were none.

The ancient Embodiers were old, and their reputation back in their era was useless in this era. Multiple generations had passed since then.

“What about you?” Chu Kuangren asked Myriad Dusk Immortal Emperor.

Myriad Dusk Immortal Emperor remained silent at first but ultimately surrendered. He said, “I will also be at your command, Immortal King.”

“Very well,” Chu Kuangren said with a nod.

Then, he talked about the Dark Demonic Forbidden Lands. “We must awaken the Peerless Warlord as soon as possible.”

The Dark Demonic Forbidden Lands was a dangerous place in the Void Battlefield, and not even an Embodier could venture inside smoothly.

Therefore, only a handful of people might be able to follow him inside to do the job.

Hong Yang must be on the team as she had investigated and studied the Dark Demonic Forbidden Lands for a long time and knew her way around the place. Only she knew the exact location of the slumbering Peerless Warlords.

Other than her, who else should he bring?

“Let me tag along.”

A cold voice sounded amongst the crowd.

A starry light descended in the Deep Mind Dimension and transformed into a figure. The man had green armor on, a sharp facial feature, and a massive black saber on his back. He emanated a frosty and sharp aura upon his arrival.

One look at him, and everyone could tell he was not someone they could simply mess with.

Chu Kuangren had never seen him before, but judging from the reaction of the others, the man must be someone powerful.

“Lu Jun? It’s really you!”

Zi Jinlun’s eyes shone when he saw the man.

Lu Jun smiled. “It’s been a while, Zi Jinlun.”

Then, he looked at Chu Kuangren and introduced himself. “Greetings, Immortal King. I’m Lu Jun. Please allow me to follow you to the Dark Demonic Forbidden Lands.”

“Of course.” Chu Kuangren nodded.

A moment ago, Zi Jinlun had informed him telepathically that Lu Jun was one of the Peerless Warlords from the previous universal war and one of the seven remaining Peerless Warlords in the Pan Gu Universe.

His power was not to be underestimated, considering he had at least fused five Daos in himself.

There was no way Chu Kuangren would miss adding such powerful support to his team.

Soon, he assembled his team that would follow him to the Dark Demonic Forbidden Lands.

It was a team of four consisting of himself, Hong Yang, Lu Jun, and Xu Wu.

The reason why he brought Xu Wu on the team was because the man was interested in the demonic tides at the Forbidden Lands and he wanted to learn more about them.

However, they did not leave for the Forbidden Lands immediately.

They had to prepare the necessary items to awaken the Peerless Warlords, which took them around ten days.

Only after that did the team head to the Dark Demonic Forbidden Lands.

…

Meanwhile, in the Central Heaven’s Temple, a meeting was being held.

All Embodier God Kings attended the meeting, and they were having a fierce argument.

“The Central Heaven Universe has lost big time this round! We lost forty-eight continents to the other side! Whose responsibility is this?”

“Are we just going to sit here and watch? Bunch of cowards! Who wants to follow me to retake our continents?”

“Calm down! Don’t act recklessly!”

“Huh? We’ve been outsmarted by a junior, and you don’t want us to take revenge? Are you out of your damn mind?”

Heavenly Sword Chu Kuangren was in the meeting as well.

Instead of using their true form to attend the meeting, all the attendees used some kind of communication method to present themselves as projections.

Otherwise, Chu Kuangren suspect the meeting would escalate into a full-out brawl.

He looked at the arguing God Kings and yawned.

How boring…

He would not have attended the meeting if he was not afraid of missing out on important information.

“Calm down!” God King Sikong grunted coldly.

He was the representative of Shen Tian, so his words still carried weight, and he successfully calmed everyone down.

“God Kings, do not act recklessly. Don’t forget that we lost this battle because the God Kings were distracted fighting Chu Kuangren, which allowed our enemy to have the chance to ambush us. We cannot make the same mistake again.”

God King Sikong then looked at Chu Kuangren, “Heavenly Sword, what do you think about Chu Kuangren?”

Chu Kuangren was slightly surprised.

What thoughts could he possibly have for himself? That he was handsome? Powerful?

“He’s a decent opponent. The Heavens look forward to fighting him,” he simply said.

His answer was not at all surprising.

To the other God Kings, the Heavenly Sword was a powerful man who sought challenges, and now with a decent opponent in sight, there was no way he would miss it.

God King Sikong did not say anything else either.

After that, he called off the meeting but kept a few attendees behind.

Chu Kuangren narrowed his eyes.

He looked at those who stayed behind. Heavenly Rainbow Dragon was one of them, and the others were no random God Kings.

“What’s going on? Are you guys trying to start another group meeting on your own?” Chu Kuangren thought to himself.

He had speculations about the secret meeting but did not ask anything and called off his projection.

“It seems like they’ve noticed something,” Chu Kuangren muttered while looking at his projector.

However, it was normal for them to notice something strange after such a big loss.
