Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

On the Central Heaven Universe's Ninth Continent, Chu Kuangren exited his room and called for the Heavenly Shadow. "Heavenly Shadow, I want you to go to the Central Heaven Universe and visit the Mystic Divination Tribe. Tell them to bring me every record and scripture they have that mentions the Dark Demonic Forgotten Lands. And another thing…"

The Mystic Divination Tribe still owed Chu Kuangren a favor, which would come in handy to him this time.

Besides that, he also gave the Heavenly Shadow another task.

After hearing his orders, the Heavenly Shadow left the Void Battlefield.

Soon, Chu Kuangren received some news.

The Central Heaven Universe was now relocating its defenses and changing the troop deployments on a very large scale.

As for the latest troop deployment, no one other than the top-tiered higher-ups knew the whole picture, and the others could only carry out their orders as told.

The Central Heaven Temple was now managing everything on the battlefront.

Any military arrangements, be it changing defenses or dispatching troops, would have to be approved by the Central Heaven Temple.

Although they would lose out on flexibility, it would greatly enhance the confidentiality of their military activity and intel.

Even by using his connections in the Heavenly Roundtable, Chu Kuangren could only manage to learn a portion of the overall troop arrangements. It was hard for him to gauge the overall picture on the battlefield now.

"Oh, it looks like they've already noticed something, huh? How long can I keep my identity concealed, I wonder?" Chu Kuangren chuckled.

'It's all up to the Heavenly Shadow now…'

As time went by, several years had passed.

The Central Heaven Universe cultivators sent to awaken the Peerless Warlords in the Dark Demonic Forgotten Lands had all returned. Besides the Nether King, who suffered critical injuries and needed a long time to recover, the rest of them could already enter the battlefield.

Following the return of the Peerless Warlords, the situation on the battlefield had gotten even more intense. Even Embodiers and God Kings could die in battle at any given moment.

However, with Chu Kuangren holding the fort over and having another version of him on the other side as a mole, Pan Gu Universe still had not fallen into a disadvantage.

In the Central Heaven Universe, someone dashing toward a location.

That person was a God King from the Central Heaven Temple. He was under orders by God King Sikong to investigate Chu Kuangren, and his name was God King Tianji.

"The Heavenly Sword… To think that the famous Heavenly Sword might be a spy from Pan Gu Universe. This is simply unbelievable."

"If news of this spreads, I can't begin to imagine the chaos that'll ensue. I must carry out this task secretly."

Several months soon passed.

God King Tianji visited many places where Chu Kuangren once went, gathering all sorts of information along the way. He was trying to deduce something from Chu Kuangren's past behaviors.

However, he did not find anything out of the ordinary.

"Alright, now all there's left is the Spiritual Sword Tribe."

The Spiritual Sword Tribe was the Heavenly Sword's home tribe.

If there was anywhere with the evidence he needed, it most likely would be there.

Nowadays, Central Heaven Universe rarely had God King-level cultivators as most of them had gone to the Void Battlefield.

The same thing could be said for the Spiritual Sword Tribe's Sword God King and Galaxy God King.

Hence, God King Tianji's visit to the Spiritual Sword Tribe was a great shock to the tribe.

"Oh, I just happened to pass by this place and recalled that this is the home tribe of the Heavenly Sword. I've been a huge fan of his for a long time, so I thought I'd visit it," God King Tianji said with a laugh.

His investigation into the Heavenly Sword was top secret, so no one could know about it.

That was God King Sikong's order.

The Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader did not suspect anything. After all, the Heavenly Sword had a very high reputation throughout the universe, with many cultivators becoming his fans. Hence, many people had come to visit the Spiritual Sword Tribe to see the Heavenly Sword's home tribe.

Most of them were sword cultivators too.

Even God Kings had visited them in the past as well.

The Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader personally led God King Tianji to tour the historical attractions in the Spiritual Sword Tribe while talking about the Heavenly Sword's deeds.

"That over there is the Thousand Sword Peak, the original location where the Void Sword was placed, and it was later taken away by the Heavenly Sword."

"The instant the Void Sword was pulled out marked the appearance of the Heavenly Sword. At that time, every sword cultivator in the Central Heaven Universe immediately felt its presence, and their swords either shattered, broke in two, or dimmed… "

"The whole Central Heaven Universe was stunned by the Heavenly Sword."

The Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader could not help but become emotional when talking about that scene.

Having also experienced what happened back then, God King Tianji lamented, "The Heavenly Sword's Dao is one which every sword in the universe would submit to. The Heavenly Sword is truly the sword beyond the Heavens."

He then looked at the deserted Thousand Sword Peak. "It's named the Thousand Sword Peak, but why are so few swords here? Could it be that the Heavenly Sword's appearance caused a commotion so great that most of the swords here shattered?"

"You're partially correct. Another reason is due to the Heavenly Sword's battle with the other Heavenly Sword back then. Their battle damaged many swords here."

"The other Heavenly Sword? There are two of them?"

God King Tianji's face turned pale with shock.

The Spiritual Sword Leader merely chuckled. "Well, the Heavenly Sword is the one and only out there. The previous battle proved that the other Heavenly Sword was a fake. He couldn't even hold the Void Sword, even though he was one of the Nine Kings. Hence, he was not the real Heavenly Sword."

Even though the Spiritual Sword Leader's remark might sound casual, it revealed a lot about God King Tianji.

God King Tianji's thoughts flowed.

'There were two Heavenly Swords?'

'One was a member of the Nine Kings, while the other is the current Heavenly Sword.'

'However, the former was killed by the current Heavenly Sword.'

'What if the former Heavenly Sword was the real Heavenly Sword? This means that the current Heavenly Sword is the fake one. Will this be enough to prove that he's the enemy's spy?'

'Not necessarily.'

'He may just be someone that took on the Heavenly Sword's name.'

The further he investigated, the more God King Tianji found that the Heavenly Sword's origin was full of mysteries.

Then, he followed the Spiritual Sword Tribe to the Spiritual Sword's Ancestral Lands.

That location was where the past Prodigies of the Spiritual Sword Tribe went into a deep slumber.

The Heavenly Sword also came out from this place.

Suddenly, God King Tianji thought of something.

All this time, they had been referring to the Heavenly Sword as the Heavenly Sword. However, the name Heavenly Sword was only a mere title. No one even knew what his true name was.

"Tribe Leader, do you know the Heavenly Sword's true name?" God King Tianji asked curiously.

"Let me think about it…"

The Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader had always addressed the Heavenly Sword by his title, but he recalled asking the Heavenly Sword's true name.

"If my memory serves me right, the Heavenly Sword's true name seems to be… Chu Kuang."

'Chu Kuang!'

The moment God King Tianji heard those words, he felt a chill travel up from the soles of his feet, go through his body, and erupt from his scalp!

He immediately froze and had goosebumps all over his body.

It was because he knew that the greatest enemy of the Central Heaven Universe now was a cultivator named Chu Kuangren!

'It's only a one-word difference!

'Chu Kuang, Chu Kuangren…'

'Can the names of these two be due to a coincidence?'

'There can't possibly be such a coincidence!'

'Or perhaps, is Chu Kuang actually Chu Kuangren himself?'

'No, there's no way.'

'This is simply unbelievable.'

God King Tianji's thoughts were a mess right now.

That information had truly shaken him to the core.

"No, I must notify God King Sikong immediately. There's certainly something suspicious going on with the Heavenly Sword!"

Just as God King Tianji wanted to contact God King Sikong, he realized that his message could not be sent out!

It was as if something was preventing it from being transmitted.

'What's going on?'

God King Tianji was a little puzzled.

Following that, he realized that both he and the Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader had been trapped inside a blood-colored enchanted boundary.

Meanwhile, a man in gorgeous black robes with a wickedly handsome and ominous face appeared, slowly approaching them.

The man had a menacing and alluring demonic saber in his grasp.

He was none other than the Heavenly Shadow.

He looked at God King Tianji and the Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader with a chuckle. "I'm afraid the two of you will have to die."

Upon hearing that, God King Tianji's eyes widened. Without a moment's hesitation, he instantly attacked the Heavenly Shadow.

Boom!

A terrifying burst of palm strength erupted, containing immense might.

Surges of Daoist law energy were flowing within that attack.

However, it was shattered by a casual swing of the Heavenly Shadow's saber.
