“Tushan is in trouble!”

Chu Kuangren immediately sensed something bad was happening.

Meanwhile, outside the cave where he had his closed-door meditation, dozens of Nine-Headed Snakelet Tribe’s Heavenly Immortals and True Immortals had destroyed most of the restrictions there. Soon, they arrived at the cave.

They were overjoyed to see the cave glittering with Immortal Sparks and Daoist patterns.

“There must be some treasure hidden inside here.”

“This aura is truly extraordinary.”

“Haha. Seeing that so many restrictions and seals have been placed to keep it safe, I wonder what kind of treasure it is.”

Just when they were going to enter the cave, the Immortal Sparks and Daoist patterns in that cave disappeared. Following that, a white-robed figure slowly walked out.

The white-robed figure had black hair and an otherworldly temperament. At his waist, there was an ancient scroll and an ancient sword.

“It’s… Chu Kuangren!”

The True Immortal, the leader of the group, immediately looked frightened, and the other Heavenly Immortals’ faces were ashen.

“Here I was, wondering what kind of treasure is inside there, but it turns out that it’s Chu Kuangren.”

“He’s still in Tushan Mountain?!”

“Is he going to interfere with the great yokai war?”

“So what if he does? What can a Heavenly Immortal like him possibly do, huh? Does he think he can turn the tide that easily? In his dreams.”

“The aura coming out from the cave earlier was just too extraordinary. Apparently, he obtained many Opportunities of Fortune from the Ancient Heavenly Yokai Cave. If we can get our hands on those items, it’ll surely benefit us greatly. Elder Yun, should we make a move?”

The yokai Immortals were excited to attack.

They looked at the True Immortal, the one they were referring to as Elder Yun.

At that time, Elder Yun could not help but look at Chu Kuangren with astonishment and hesitation because Chu Kuangren was a Heavenly Champion.

If any of the older generation of cultivators wanted to kill or harm him, they would surely suffer the karmic repercussions.

That was why Elder Yun would have a vague feeling whenever he looked at those Heavenly Champions.

It was a karmic warning signal.

However, with Chu Kuangren, that feeling of warning had become weak to the point of non-existence.

In other words, even if he attacked Chu Kuangren now, he would only suffer a minor karmic repercussion.

He believed he could even resist that minor karmic repercussion with his ability.

‘What is going on?’

‘Has Chu Kuangren lost the protection of the will of the Immortal World?’

Elder Yun was very confused.

After hearing what his subordinates just now, he became even more tempted.

Anyway, he was a True Immortal, currently facing a mere Heavenly Immortal. He could definitely kill Chu Kuangren right away and obtain everything in the latter’s possession.

Furthermore, although he was unsure why he had a feeling that he would not suffer major karmic repercussions even if he did attack Chu Kuangren, that was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

As for Chu Kuangren, he looked at the Nine-Headed Snakelet Tribe’s True Immortal and Heavenly Immortals calmly after coming out from the cave.

By then, he had mobilized his Immortal Consciousness to find out the current situation in Tushan.

The more he found out, the more the killing intent in him grew.

“Oh, wow. So six Beast Ruler Tribes have joined forces to attack us, huh? What a huge ensemble they have!”

The tone in his voice was cold, and a trace of killing intent seeped out uncontrollably from his body.

The Nine-Headed Snakelet Heavenly Immortals could not help but tremble in fear. They could not believe that Chu Kuangren’s killing intent could cause such a reaction in them.

“Attack!”

The Nine-Headed Snakelet True Immortal could not hold back his greed anymore and attacked.

He charged forth like lightning, instantly arriving before Chu Kuangren. A powerful surge of water and fire energy and countless Daoist patterns spread forward from the palm of his hand.

“Overarching Water and Fire!”

The Nine-Headed Snakelet True Immortal wielded the power of water in one hand and the power of fire in the other.

Two different energies erupted at once and merged together, turning into a vast torrent of energy that was unleashed toward Chu Kuangren.

He had heard of Chu Kuangren’s monstrous feats before, so he immediately attacked with full power!

That attack would instantly kill even a Great Perfected Ninth-grade Heavenly Immortal!

“So what if it’s the power of fire and water? Your survival is still in my control!” Chu Kuangren said indifferently.

Then, he slowly raised his hands. Wielding the power of life in one hand and the power of death in another, the power of his Chaos Celestial Demon Physique and his Heavenly Samsara Physique erupted at once!

An endless life-death reincarnation intent poured out like a raging tide, forming a Life and Death Symbol.

When the torrent of water and fire clashed against the Life and Death Symbol, the void shattered anddestroyed the remaining restrictions in the surroundings subsequently.

The next instant, the Nine-Headed Snakelet True Immortal was sent flying with blood spurting out of his mouth before he crashed into a mountain nearby.

Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren stood proudly in the air, radiating with Immortal Sparks. His incomparably powerful Immortal’s Core energy surged everywhere, slamming violently against the void.

“How is this possible?”

The Nine-Headed Snakelet True Immortal’s expression changed. He could not believe what just happened.

Chu Kuangren, a Heavenly Immortal, had sent a True Immortal like him flying with a single move!

He even ended up spitting a mouthful of blood!

Now, he finally understood why he would not suffer significant karmic repercussions if he attacked Chu Kuangren.

Why would the will of the Immortal World protect its Heavenly Champions?

Why would karmic judgment befall anyone stronger who attacked them?

That was because the Battle of Heavenly Champions was heavily related to the will of the Immortal World. Each Heavenly Champion possessed a sort of fortune that the Immortal World wanted to protect, so the karmic repercussions existed as a mechanism to prevent the older, stronger Immortals from attacking them.

However, why was it that the Heavenly Champions and other younger sky-prides were not affected by karmic repercussions when they battled each other?

That was because Heavenly Champions were required to undergo tests, which were to battle the other Heavenly Champions and sky-prides!

On the other hand, the older Immortals, who were Gilded or even Arch Gilded Immortals, were just too powerful as they could kill any Heavenly Champion as they wished. Since that did not qualify as a test, the Gilded and Arch Gilded Immortals were not allowed to interfere.

However, Chu Kuangren was now as powerful as a True Immortal!

True Immortals were no longer difficult for him to battle, so they qualified as a test in Chu Kuangren’s case.

That was why any True Immortals would not suffer major karmic judgment even if they fought Chu Kuangren.

Upon realizing this fact, Elder Yun gulped in fear, and his eyes widened in shock. “You monster! You truly are a monster!!”

‘Chu Kuangren is just like the rumors say– No, he’s crazier than that!’

“The six Beast Ruler Tribes shall pay for their invasion of Tushan today. Now, I’ll start with you guys first,” Chu Kuangren said indifferently.

As he stepped forth, his mighty Immortal’s Core energy surged out.

“Quick! Everyone, attack at once!”

Elder Yun immediately gave an order.

Only then did the other Heavenly Immortals recover from their shock. They quickly channeled their Immortal’s Core energy and attacked fearfully!

Bursts of water and fire energy were unleashed to form a massive barrage of attacks that came crashing toward Chu Kuangren.

Some of the Heavenly Immortals had also reverted to their true forms, turning into a gigantic nine-headed snakelet, continuously spewing water and fire energy at Chu Kuangren.

“Ten Wild Beasts Mimicry!”

Facing the combined attacks of all those yokai Immortals, Chu Kuangren did not panic. Instead, he raised his hand to channel his Immortal’s Core and Daoist patterns to form several ancient wild beasts in the void.

Manticore, Nine-Headed Snakelet, Sabertooth, Lamia…

The moment the Ten Wild Beasts emerged, an endless surge of ferocious qi filled the surrounding void.

Having analyzed the blood essence of many wild beasts to obtain their physiques, Chu Kuangren had perfected that technique, making it even more powerful and lethal.

The Ten Wild Beasts were extremely lifelike. It was as if the real ones had descended upon the land!

Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren, who was controlling the Ten Wild Beasts and had all of their powers inside him, seemed to have turned into a supreme wild beast himself!

It was as if he was setting out to destroy the whole world!

The Ten Wild Beasts Mimicry clashed against the water and fire energy, sending terrifying shockwaves everywhere. The surrounding landscape was destroyed and reduced to ruins!

After that collision, the ten Heavenly Immortals were dead from being torn apart by the power of the Ten Wild Beasts. None of them survived, except for Elder Yun, the True Immortal. However, he was already on the brink of death. He looked at Chu Kuangren with nothing but extreme fear in his eyes. “M… M… Monster!”
