Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws-Novel

Chapter 583: Li Celong’s Obsession, Refining the Crimson Miasma Lotus Flame

“You almost killed Sister Ningyu and me that time. Yet, you dare say that you have nothing to do with this?”

Chi Yue sneered.

Chu Kuangren remained quiet as he looked at Princess Chi Lian. However, he clearly had the same thoughts as Chi Yue.

With a clang, half of his sword unsheathed from his waist, and an incomparably sharp and chilling Sword-based Daoist Rhyme spread everywhere.

“Chu Kuangren, killing me means that you’ll be going against the whole Divine Serpent Tribe. You should think it through. Is it truly worth killing me?”

Princess Chi Lian gritted her teeth and said.

“Is that a threat? Interesting. Now that I’ve gotten more curious, what can the Divine Serpent Tribe do after I kill you?”

Chu Kuangren replied indifferently as his Sword-based Daoist Rhyme surged out.

His Descendant Self Sword fully unsheathed itself, unleashing a frightening sword ray that aimed at Princess Chi Lian and tore through the ground!

“Let’s go!!”

Suddenly, Li Celong grabbed Princess Chi Lian and crushed a Jade scroll in his hands.

The two of them instantly turned into a ray of light that moved with such speed. Even Chu Kuangren could not react in time with his Spatial Conveyor Skill.

“Sheesh, some sort of item for fleeing?”

He was slightly shocked to see the escaping duo. However, he ignored them and turned his attention to the Crimson Miasma Lotus Flame beside him.

“Even ten Emperor-grade Supreme Elixirs combined are inferior to a natural uncommon flame of this level.”

Chu Kuangren slowly reached out his hand towards the Crimson Miasma Lotus Flame.

Swordsman Mei quickly reminded him. “Please be careful, Master. This uncommon flame is highly poisonous.”

“Oh, it’s nothing really.”

Chu Kuangren nodded slightly. His hand was already inside the Crimson Miasma Lotus Flame at that time, and large bundles of poisonous flames were rapidly corroding his body.

Compared to the Crimson Miasma Lotus Flame’s energy level, the concentration of poison within it was just as high.

Since Chu Kuangren possessed the body of a Supreme Sage and his physical body was far stronger than that of a wild beast, the Crimson Miasma Lotus Flame’s poison could not affect him at all. However, if the overpowering energy of the uncommon flame were not handled properly, forcibly absorbing its power would even burn a Boundary Emperor to ashes.

Then again, Chu Kuangren could refine all sorts of uncommon energy in the world with his Universal Cauldron Physique.

That included the Crimson Miasma Lotus Flame too!

With a flicker of his mind, the boundless natural uncommon flame instantly rushed into Chu Kuangren’s body. It was then quickly refined and converted by his Universal Cauldron Physique into spiritual power.

Upon seeing Chu Kuangren refining the uncommon flame, Swordsman Mei immediately stood guard beside him.

Leng Ningyu and Chi Yue also placed several sealing restrictions around the area when they saw what he was doing.

…

A ray of light flashed across the skies and landed on a mountain peak.

It was Li Celong and Princess Chi Lian who had escaped earlier using the Emperor-grade Fleeing Light Talisman.

Both of them were still trembling with fear despite having fled from their opponent. It took a while before they recovered their composure.

“D*mn it. D*mn it!!”

Li Celong roared angrily while punching with his fists everywhere, mercilessly damaging the surrounding mountains, rocks, and plants.

Princess Chi Lian was in quite a bad mood too.

She had been searching for that Crimson Miasma Lotus Flame for a very long time. Once she refined it, her combat strength would undoubtedly increase to a higher level.

However, her human form’s arm had been cut off, let alone increasing her combat power.

“Chu Kuangren, just wait. I, Princess Chi Lian, shall never forget this. I shall make you pay when the time comes!”

She gritted her teeth and uttered.

Following that, she looked at Li Celong at the side and asked coldly. “Are you done venting? Come and heal my injuries when you’re done.”

Seeing that her injuries had not fully recovered, Li Celong was able to help her as he was a physician.

“Hmph, you better watch your attitude, Princess. I was the one who saved you just now.”

“We’re in this mess, thanks to you. If it weren’t for your stupidity, for not realizing that you got the bug powder…”

Upon mentioning the bug powder, Princess Chi Lian’s expression changed. “You idiot! Go and get rid of the bug powder inside your body this instant!”

The Queen Snow Jade Bug and its offspring could locate each other. For every day that Li Celong had the bug powder inside him, he would never be able to escape the Queen Snow Jade Bug’s tracking.

Li Celong panicked a little when he heard this and quickly channeled his spiritual power.

The bug powder’s presence in one’s body would be hard to detect under normal circumstances. However, as a user of the Queen Snow Jade Bug and a physician, Li Celong naturally knew how to get rid of it. Once he took out a medicinal pill and ate it, he channeled his spiritual power for a while and coughed out a large mouthful of white liquid. It contained the bug powder that Chu Kuangren injected into his body.

“Let’s go. We can’t stay here any longer.”

Princess Chi Lian said with a deep voice. The two of them then ran quite a distance before arriving at a cave. After placing sealing restrictions around it, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Following that, Li Celong started treating Princess Chi Lian’s injuries.

At the same time, he was also thinking of ways to deal with Chu Kuangren.

If he did not make his opponent pay, his Daoist core was unstable.

Chu Kuangren had snatched away his beloved and foiled his plans one after another. In order to defeat him, Li Celong was even willing to kill his own teacher.

There was no way he would give up now.

This matter had become his obsession!

“Chu Kuangren, I’ll be a living disgrace of a human if I don’t get my revenge!!”

Noticing Li Celong’s hatred towards Chu Kuangren, Princess Chi Lian sneered. “How can you seek revenge on Chu Kuangren alone?”

Li Celong was not even an outlawed sky-pride, so dealing with Chu Kuangren would be too difficult.

“Just because I can’t, it doesn’t mean the others can’t as well.”

“So you’re going to seek out the other outlawed sky-prides. Who do you think can match Chu Kuangren in battle?”

Princess Chi Lian had no choice but to acknowledge Chu Kuangren’s overpowering strength.

That level of strength was far beyond the reaches of any outlawed sky-pride.

“An outlawed sky-pride might not be able to win against him, but what if they joined forces? Besides, I bet the other outlawed sky-prides have found many great Opportunities of Fortune of their own in the Forbidden Barren Wasteland and have since grown stronger. They might stand a chance of defeating Chu Kuangren when they work together.”

“How do you plan to do this?”

“I’ll go find Sword Daoist first. Like me, he was once a suitor of Leng Ningyu. If he finds out about her and Chu Kuangren, he’ll definitely do something.”

Li Celong said coldly.

He was no stranger to Sword Daoist.

In the past, both of them were the only people who were most qualified and capable of pursuing Leng Ningyu. As such, he once saw Sword Daoist as his greatest rival.

Unexpectedly, Chu Kuangren was one step faster than them at holding Leng Ningyu’s hand!

Li Celong continued thinking. ‘Besides Sword Daoist, who else can I manipulate into doing this?’

‘The Wang clan’s Wang Quan? The Bai clan’s Bai Hongyu? The Nine-Headed Snakelet Tribe’s Jiu Yan?’

If those people were still not enough…

Li Celong fiddled with the Yin and Yang ring in his hands. There was something hidden inside Master Daoist Li’s Yin and Yang ring — something related to a terrifying being!

He truly did not want to take the risk to seek out that frightening being if need be.

…

Inside the swamp, Chu Kuangren was still refining the Crimson Miasma Lotus Flame.

The energy contained within the uncommon flame was quite vast and was nothing compared to the Leyline Essence he refined not too long ago.

About a day later, he had fully refined the vast Crimson Miasma Lotus Flame (TN: author used 地脉精元, assumed to be a context error.). It was converted into a horrifying amount of spiritual power that filled his spiritual mound.

Meanwhile, inside his spiritual mound, the vast and dense spiritual power surrounded the Seven Supreme Foundation Levels within his body like a raging ocean. Even a Boundary Emperor would feel ashamed upon witnessing a spiritual power of such scale. Not only its quantity, but its quality also was unmatched.

It was one of the sources of Chu Kuangren’s overpowering combat strength, and this was why no one was a match for him within the same cultivation realm.
