Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

Chu Kuangren planned to exit his closed-door meditation, but he had a change of plans when he acquired the Vitality Qi Divine Celestial and continued his cultivation for several more years.

With Lil AI's help, he was able to boost his strength, not significantly but strong enough to handle sticky situations.

Still, he was not satisfied with the outcome. His short-term goal was to fuse three thousand Daos, which was a difficult path. The further he thread, the harder it would be.

Based on his current cultivation speed, he would at least need another one hundred thousand years to achieve it. Furthermore, it was based on optimistic calculation.

However, that was too long for him.

There were countless Opportunities of Fortune in the Great Hongmeng Universe.

People were figuring out ways to improve themselves every second. If he threaded on his difficult path of fusing three thousand Daos for too long, others might catch up to him.

On top of that, the Radiant Church would not spare him the luxury of time.

"It's no good. I have to improvise as I thread. If things get out of control, I would have to ascend to the Primordial Realm earlier…" Chu Kuangren muttered.

Ascending to the Primordial Realm with a few hundred Daos was also a rare and huge achievement. There might be less than a handful of people who achieved the same throughout the entire Infiniverse.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, an explosion happened outside.

Someone was trying to break into the restriction seals.

"Who could that be?"

He sent his Immortal Consciousness out and soon spotted several black-robed cultivators approaching his cultivation ground rapidly.

It was someone from the group of cultivators who accidentally triggered the restriction seals he and Hei Xuan set up, hence the explosion.

"These auras… Are they from the Darkness Tribe?"

On the other side of the mountain, Hei Xuan, who was also cultivating, sensed the same auras. He exited his cultivation and flew to the group of cultivators.

"You guys are the ones who broke my seal that day."

Hei Xuan was surprised to see the group again.

The group of cultivators knelt before him.

"Lord Evil Dragon."

Hei Xuan nodded. "At ease."

Then, Chu Kuangren arrived.

Alarmed by Chu Kuangren's arrival, the cultivators from the Darkness Tribe got on their feet and entered a defensive stance.

Black flames were ignited on their hands.

However, the flames emanated a strange aura, as if it could ignite one's soul.

"Oh, interesting flame," Chu Kuangren said after a glance at the flame.

The group of Darkness Tribe cultivators stared at Chu Kuangren, and for some reason, their hearts were pounding.

Deep down, they had a strong urge to submit before him. They even had a thought to kneel before him.

Who exactly were they looking at?

"Stop it. He's an ally," Hei Xuan said.

Upon hearing Hei Xuan, the group of cultivators breathed a sigh of relief.

They sensed a powerful pressure when they tried to confront Chu Kuangren.

Hei Xuan was surprised by Chu Kuangren's aura as well.

It had just been a few years of cultivation, yet Chu Kuangren felt like a different person. He even sensed a faint aura of the Dark Demonic Ruler on Chu Kuangren.

How strange.

Hei Xuan suppressed his doubts and then looked at the cultivators. "You're Yu Yan's men."

Other than the Demonic Ruler, the Darkness Tribe had a few more powerful elites.

Yu Yan was one of them, and like Hei Xuan, he was labeled as one of the Eight Great Heretics by the Radiant Church.

"We are."

"Where is Yu Yan now?"

"Lord Yu Yan is in another major domain. He is currently engaged with the Radiant Church and can't meet you, Lord Evil Dragon."

"I see. The Radiant Church is really pesky."

"Yeah. That's why we spent all our effort to break your seal. If you can team up with Lord Yu Yan, the Radiant Church won't be able to ignore us anymore, and the Darkness Tribe will regain its stand with your support."

"Hmph. What about that b*tch, Radiant Goddess?" Hei Xuan grunted.

He knew neither he nor Yu Yan was the key to the rise of the Darkness Tribe; it was the Dark Demonic Ruler.

As long as the Demonic Ruler remained absent, the Darkness Tribe would continue to be suppressed because of the Radiant Goddess.

"Similar to the previous reset, Transcendentalists above the Grand Dao level won't simply show themselves. The same goes for the Radiant Goddess."

"I understand. Take me to Yu Yan," Hei Xuan said.

The group of cultivators hesitated.

They looked at Chu Kuangren, seemingly concerned.

"Don't worry. He's related to the Ruler."

Hei Xuan's words surprised them, and they looked at Chu Kuangren with disbelief.

Chu Kuangren immediately pulled out the Ruler Amulet to show them.

"T-The Ruler Amulet?"

"What's going on?"

The group was astonished.

They all knelt before Chu Kuangren and then led the two of them to meet one of the Eight Great Heretics, Yu Yan.

Chu Kuangren had no plans at the moment, so he decided to go have a look.

…

The Great Hongmeng Universe was filled with Opportunities of Fortune.

Inside a certain mountain ridge, a grand palace appeared. The palace was massive and shimmering with Immortal Sparks so bright that it caught the attention of countless cultivators from across a million kilometers.

"This aura… It feels like some massive treasure is appearing."

"What an amazing aura. It must be something good!"

Cultivators near the palace went to have a look.

Soon, they arrived at the palace and wanted to head inside.

However, they were stopped by the restriction seals.

That was when someone spotted the signage at the entrance.

"Look, there are words at the entrance."

A golden signage hung over the entrance, spelling "Tempest Palace".

"T-Tempest Palace? Could this be…"

Someone cried in shock when the realization struck. Astonishment filled his eyes.

"Is this place related to the Tempest King?"

Tempest King?

Not all knew what the name meant.

The Infiniverse was boundless, and no one's name was so famous that everyone knew it.

Only the cultivators who experienced the previous Hongmeng Era knew what the Tempest King meant.

"The Tempest King was the most amazing cultivator during the previous Hongmeng Era. He rose as a Prodigy and went on a conquest across the Great Hongmeng Universe. He never lost a battle."

"It was said that when the Great Hongmeng Universe reset, the Tempest King's cultivation level had surpassed Grand Dao and reached an unknown level."

"What kind of treasures would such a Transcendentalist leave behind? I look forward to finding out."

The Tempest King's name intrigued everyone and aroused their desire to find out more. They wanted to enter the palace but could not break the powerful restriction seals.

No matter how they tried, no one could get inside.

The news of the Tempest Palace spread across the major domains and attracted some of the strongest forces.
