Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws-Novel

Chapter 634: Core Area of the Forbidden Barren Wasteland, Have You Asked For My Permission?

“It’s the Heavenly God! He has arrived!”

One of the cultivators could not help but exclaim in shock when he witnessed Chu Kuangren giving chase to the Slumbering Emperor Coffin.

Another cultivator smacked at the back of his head and corrected him. “Holy hell, you’re dumb. That’s clearly Chu Kuangren!”

Despite his correction, the cultivator himself was also in shock.

Having witnessed Chu Kuangren previously, the cultivator was aware that Chu Kuangren was a formidable cultivator. However, he did not expect Chu Kuangren to be this powerful.

So powerful that he was giving chase to the Slumbering Emperor Coffin, which was guarded by up to a hundred ancient warriors.

He was way too overpowered, was he not?!

“It’s the Heavenly God!”

“This is the true Heavenly God!”

When the citizens in the city saw Chu Kuangren pursuing the Slumbering Emperor Coffin, they immediately knelt on the ground and began worshipping Chu Kuangren.

As commoners who had limited exposure to the cultivation world, most renowned cultivators were at most subjects of legend to them.

However, they were well aware of the Slumbering Emperor Coffin that had decimated countless lives that ranged in the billions. The way they saw it, whoever could defeat the Slumbering Emperor Coffin was definitely the Heavenly God!

“The Heavenly God has descended upon humanity to save us all!”

“Oh, Heavenly God, may You purge the evil lurking within that terrible coffin.”

Countless citizens were kneeling on the ground as they stared at Chu Kuangren’s departing figure with utmost devotion.

Some of the weaker cultivators were almost swayed by their behaviors too. They felt a sudden urge to kneel and join in the mass.

After all, if the archaic orthodoxies, such as the Holy Light Religion and Dark Shadow Religion, could not do anything about the Slumbering Emperor Coffin, it would not be preposterous to suggest that Chu Kuangren might just be a deity.

…

While Chu Kuangren chased after the Slumbering Emperor Coffin, he effortlessly destroyed any ancient warrior who was foolish enough to stop him.

No matter with his remarkable combat strength or his divine might, Chu Kuangren had managed to cast a glimmer of hope over the Emperor Road that had long been enshrouded in darkness and despair.

Wherever he went, the cultivators and the people who saw him would worship him as the Heavenly God!

It was probable that once this incident with the Slumbering Emperor Coffin blew over, Chu Kuangren could easily create a religion of his own. With enough effort, he could even dwarf the two major religions of Emperor Road.

In the Forbidden Barren Wasteland.

The sky-prides of the archaic orthodoxies took the opportunity to venture deep into the Core Area since the Slumbering Emperor Coffin was no longer there.

Having been deserted for countless years, the Core Area of the Forbidden Barren Wasteland was a land filled with Opportunities of Fortune.

Some of the outlawed sky-prides had filled their inventories to its brinks.

Boom!

A burst of terrifying Emperor qi erupted from a nearby mountain peak as Qin Tianchen emerged from a cave with excitement. “Three strands of Emperor qi! I’ve finally cultivated three strands of Emperor Qi!”

“If I work hard enough, I’ll be able to catch up to Chu Kuangren.”

As the reincarnation of an Emperor, Qin Tianchen possessed a determined Daoist core. Most of the other sky-prides had given up hopes in defeating Chu Kuangren.

However, not Qin Tianchen! He refused to give up!

Now that the Core Area of the Forbidden Barren Wasteland had opened, it was the perfect chance for him to make some real progress.

“For countless years, many have ventured into the Core Area of the Forbidden Barren Wasteland. But because of the Slumbering Emperor Coffin’s existence, all of them have either perished or fallen into a deep slumber underneath the black soil.”

“Even the Emperors aren’t spared from such a gruesome fate. But as the Dharma is not in perfect alignment, the Slumbering Emperor Coffin can’t control the Emperors’ powers. Otherwise, I can’t imagine just how terrifying the Slumbering Emperor Coffin would become.”

Qin Tianchen murmured.

As the reincarnation of an Emperor, he was privy to knowledge even the Sovereigns were unaware of. Above all, he knew just how terrifying the Slumbering Emperor Coffin was.

The Slumbering Emperor Coffin at its full power would even bring Emperors to their knees.

“Even at limited power, the Slumbering Emperor Coffin is unstoppable in Emperor Road. It seems like those people are destined to die.”

Qin Tianchen shook his head and did not dwell on it further.

Like the Sovereigns, he did not care how many commoners ended up dying in the disaster.

Qin Tianchen only had one goal in mind — to overpower Chu Kuangren and ascend into an Emperor again!

“Let’s search around the black soils.”

Qin Tianchen looked toward the land that was covered in black soil. It was the most dangerous place of the Core Area and also the burial place of the Slumbering Emperor Coffin.

Fortunately, the Slumbering Emperor Coffin was now gone, so the area was much safer. Perhaps Qin Tianchen could unearth some remarkable Opportunities of Fortune there.

Many other sky-prides were making their way into the land of black soil as well. The absence of the Slumbering Emperor Coffin was a great opportunity for them to uncover some valuable items.

Bai Hongyu, Wang Quan, Jiu Yan, Niu Dali, Sha Wushe, and other outlawed sky-prides were there. Besides that, several remarkable sky-prides had also joined the party.

Most of them were staring anxiously over the land of black soil. Although the Slumbering Emperor Coffin was no longer there, the black soils were still seething with strange, sinister energy.

“If I keep letting fear hold me back, how will I ever find the perfect opportunity?! Besides, with the Slumbering Emperor Coffin gone, now’s the best chance for me to enter.”

Wang Quan gritted his teeth and walked into the boundless land of black soil.

Bai Hongyu, Niu Dali, Yun Luozi, and the other outlawed sky-prides were determined too.

“He’s right. If we don’t have the courage to step foot into this land, we don’t deserve to sit on the Emperor’s Throne. In that case, we might as well retire to a farming life.”

“I’ve heard that there are more than one Emperor’s Thrones in Emperor Mountain. Even if we can’t defeat Chu Kuangren, there’s no harm in trying for the other thrones.”

“Can’t defeat Chu Kuangren? Hmph, I’m sure someday we’ll be able to defeat him!” Sha Wushe grunted.

Before the sky-prides could step into the black soils, they sensed a peculiar shudder beneath the ground.

They were immediately shocked.

“What’s going on?!”

“Why the sudden tremor?”

“Look…”

One of the sky-pride exclaimed.

The black soils near the center began to split apart, forming a large fissure that oozed dark, sinister energies.

They could also sense the arrival of another sinister energy from the distance that seemingly resonated with the fissure.

They looked into the horizon and saw a dark ray dashing toward them. It was none other than the Slumbering Emperor Coffin.

All of the sky-prides, including Qin Tianchen, were immediately mortified.

“I-it’s the Slumbering Emperor Coffin!”

“Why is it returning so soon?! The coffin has not been fully dyed with blood yet, which means it hasn’t fully absorbed all the energies it needs. Why’s it here now?!”

“Oh heavens, what’s going on?!”

“Run!”

Some of the sky-prides ran in terror.

Even with ten times their combined power, the sky-prides were no match for the Slumbering Emperor Coffin.

“Something’s off! Where are all the coffin haulers?!”

Qin Tianchen noticed something strange about the coffin.

There were previously up to a hundred ancient warriors dragging the coffin along, yet there were now only a handful of them.

Where did the rest of the coffin hauler go?

Amidst their confusion, a loud peal of laughter echoed through the realm. “I see you’re trying to return underground, but have you asked for my permission?!”
