Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Hmmph, you want to escape? There’s no exit here for you!”

Chu Kuangren had already anticipated that the Sage spirit of the Black Light Sage would attempt to escape, so he activated his Nine Heaven Sword Prison which sealed the whole area off with twelve long Sword Qi pillars!

Without the body of the Sage, the Sage’s spirit could only be described as a sitting duck. In addition to that, because the Black Light Sage had spent a vast amount of spiritual power over the years to restore the secret realm and adding extra restrictions, his Sage spirit’s condition had deteriorated to be worse than a cultivator’s depleted cultivation base!

Right then within the Nine Heaven Sword Prison, there was nowhere to run!

“Now die!!”

Although it would be a waste to not capture a Sage’s spirit, Chu Kuangren did not care and swung his Descendant Self Sword. Horrifying beams of sword light enveloped the skies and locked onto the Sage’s spirit!

After a shrieking cry was heard... The Sage’s spirit turned to ashes and disappeared!

The Sage had fallen!

Within an instant, the whole secret realm started to rumble.

The gray mist also started to disperse and collapse as it lost its master.

From the heavens and earth came a downpour of red-colored rain as all the living beasts, birds and other animals let out a sorrowful scream!

A Sage had fallen, the skies were dyed red and all living creatures mourned in sadness!

Outside the secret realm.

The skies started rumbling and red-colored rain fell onto the land.

The waters of the northern seas were turbulent while fierce winds started to blow violently. Every beast, no matter on land or in the sky that lacked intellect all started to let out sad cries and screams.

That sudden occurrence shocked everyone.

“This is something that happens when a Sage dies!”

“Who is it? Who is it that has fallen?”

“Oh the heavens, it’s been a long time since I saw these signs that a Sage has fallen. What is going on? How can a Sage die so suddenly?”

“Can it be that one of the Sages has reached the end of their lives?”

The faces of Elder Ruyan, the experienced cultivators of the Thunder Falcon tribe, and the Honorables from the other Sage orthodoxies had all changed greatly. Each of them contacted their respective orthodoxies to find out.

After some inquiries were made, everyone was confused.

None of them had received any bad news. If that was the case, then who caused that red-colored rain and the cries of all living beasts?

“Could it be that something happened inside the secret realm?”

“It’s impossible. According to the records, the Luminous Moon Sage passed away long ago. Unless there’s a second Sage within the secret realm!”

Everyone in the crowd was dumbfounded.

At the same time, inside the Luminous Moon secret realm.

After the gray mist had collapsed, what everyone saw next was Chu Kuangren standing proudly in the air along with the Luminous Moon Sage who walked to his side while brandishing his blade.

Some of the people within the crowd recognized the Luminous Moon Sage.

“Hey, take a look, that’s the Luminous Moon Sage. Isn’t he already dead?”

“What exactly is going on?”

“That blade in his hand is indeed the Full Moon Blade. It’s the sacred weapon of the Luminous Moon Sage, but he already passed away tens of thousands of years ago.”

“Why is Chu Kuangren there as well?”

Everyone in the crowd was either surprised or confused at that time.

However, Chu Kuangren glared at the Luminous Moon Sage with a cautious gaze and asked instead. “My elder, may I ask you to give me an explanation for all of this.”

Just now when he was battling the Black Light Sage, something abnormal happened with the Full Moon Blade within his Yin and Yang ring. He heard the voice of the Luminous Moon Sage which guided him to toss his blade towards the Black Light Sage, and also cautioned him to prevent the Sage’s spirit from escaping.

The Luminous Moon Sage calmly smiled. “Sky-pride of the future, fear me not and retract your caution, for I am already long dead, and there is no doubt about it.

“What is now standing before you is but a remnant essence of my spirit. There is no need for you to take action, for it will disappear by itself later. This remnant spirit essence of mine has been stored within the Full Moon Blade for many years, waiting for the opportunity of killing the Black Light Sage. Whatever has happened today is due to your efforts. I hereby thank you sincerely for your assistance.”

After speaking, the Luminous Moon Sage took a bow before Chu Kuangren.

That very scene left everyone shocked in disbelief.

A powerful Sage bowing to someone younger and less powerful than he was?

Chu Kuangren did not move and calmly accepted that bow. After that he took a look at the corpse of the Black Light Sage and asked, “That dead body shall fall into my possession, I take it that my senior elder has no opinions about that?”

The Luminous Moon Sage calmly smiled. “Well of course, naturally so. Slaying the Black Light Sage was also due to your assistance as well. I killed the body and flesh while you killed the Sage’s spirit. Of course, you have the right to deal with this corpse in any matter you prefer.”

Right at that moment, the other Sky-prides that rushed to the scene were all dumbfounded as they heard the recent exchange. Chu Kuangren joined forces with the Luminous Moon Sage to kill another Sage?

Was that real or fake?

Another Sky-pride gulped and said. “Red rain is falling from the skies, and all living beasts are now wailing in sorrow. All the signs about the passing of a Sage are already there, so how can this be fake?”

“How can Chu Kuangren be so terrifyingly strong!”

“Didn’t he kill another Honorable Supreme before? How come he can already kill another Sage not long after now? What’s he going to do next, proclaim himself Emperor?”

“In the world of great chaos, such a horrifying beast appears!”

The crowd of Sky-prides was extremely shocked.

Glancing towards the peerless figure in white robes, they could not bring out any intention to fight and battle with him at all.

How could they?

How could a firefly possibly compare with the brightness of a full moon?

“I’m afraid that in this life of mine, it’s impossible to surpass someone like him.” Fangtian murmured with a bitter expression on his face.

Lin Batian who was beside him also frustratingly sighed, “Living with someone like this in the same era really is ... Sorrowful!”

The crowd of Sky-prides was all lamenting the difference in strength.

At that point, everyone had the same thought in their minds.

What era of great chaos, it was all a pile of d*g sh*t!

Wherever Chu Kuangren went, what chance would the others have battling against him? Even when it came to that, they could only battle against each other, while their main opponent was already leagues above them!

...

“I bid you farewell, Sky-pride of the future.”

The remnant spirit of the Luminous Moon Sage started to disappear.

“Take care, my senior elder.” Chu Kuangren slightly bowed.

If not for him, he would not have been able to kill the Black Light Sage. That was why Chu Kuangren was very grateful from the bottom of his heart towards the Luminous Moon Sage.

“It’s only a shame that I’m not able to personally witness this era of great battles!”

A sense of regret flashed by across the Luminous Moon Sage’s eyes.

Chu Kuangren was startled.

How did he know that this was the era of great battles?

Before Chu Kuangren could ask any further, the Luminous Moon Sage turned around towards the corpse of the Black Light Sage on top of the altar. He happily said, “My fellow Daoist, the Sage of Black Light. Although it has been tens of thousands of years, it seems that victory is mine at the end of this battle after all.”

The sound of laughter gradually disappeared along with the remnant spirit essence.

Chu Kuangren took the Full Moon Blade as there were still some Sage Daoist Rhymes left on it. Although the Sage Daoist Rhymes were not as strong as before, if he could properly comprehend it, then it would benefit even an Honorable cultivator tremendously not to mention himself.

After all, that was the Dao of a Sage.

Keeping away the blade, Chu Kuangren headed towards the altar and looked at the dead body of the Black Light Sage with a smile on his face.

The Qi of a Sage, the Daoist Rhyme of a Sage, and the sacred weapons of the Sage were all rare priceless treasures, then there was the body of a recently dead Sage!

Whether it was used to comprehend the Dao or to refine weapons, puppets, etc. That Sage carcass would be excellent material.

The value of that corpse would be equivalent to at least ten sacred weapons!

Chu Kuangren kept the dead body inside his Yin and Yang ring.

“Master!”

A voice of surprise resounded from afar.

Chu Kuangren turned around, looked, and saw Lan Yu flapping her wings and rushing towards him. A delighted look was on his face.

“Lan Yu, are you alright?”

“I’m fine, Master. What about you Master, are you hurt?”

“I’m alright.”

After asking her, he learned that Lan Yu had encountered a few Black Death Beasts when she was dragged into the gray mist. However, despite seemingly being in a frightful situation, she was not in any danger in the end.

“Oh, pardon me both of you.”

Princess Linglong suddenly walked over to them.

Upon seeing her, Chu Kuangren’s face froze and his body became stiff. Lan Yu however frowned instead as she felt that this woman was behaving strangely in front of her.

That tone she had just now, it seemed a bit ... Sour?

Or did she misread her?

“You came.”

Chu Kuangren took a deep breath and looked at her with a complicated gaze in his eyes.

“I...”

“There’s no need for you to say anything. It was for us both to survive, and I was the one who initiated it just now.” Princess Linglong calmly said.

She had an open-minded look on that matter.

“Then again, no matter how you look at it, I was one of the reasons why you are able to kill the Sage. I demand to have the Full Moon Blade and half of the Sage corpse.”

Princess Linglong further added.

“Of course.” Chu Kuangren nodded.

He took out the Full Moon Blade and the Black Light Sage’s corpse.

Princess Linglong instead took the blade, intending to split the corpse equally in half. However, she realized that the body of that Sage was near indestructible. Frustrated, she could only take the head that was chopped down by the Luminous Moon Sage.

Since the head of a person served as the hub of all six meridian points for the body and was also the location where the consciousness was held, it was equivalent in worth compared to the remaining parts of the corpse.

“Farewell.” Princess Linglong took the items and left gracefully, leaving Chu Kuangren who stood in his place with a frown.

Am I... Paying for the services that she offered with her body?
