1634 Jing Hui’s Suspicion, Mimicked Chu Kuangren?
The news of Ziyue Changkong possessing the Nine-colored Celestial Soul Physique spread like wildfire within the Soul Restricted Area.
Everyone from the seven main tribes was shocked.
To all the soul cultivators, the Nine-colored Celestial Soul Physique was considered the most precious Immortal Physique.
Throughout the history of the Soul Restricted Area, only one Nine-colored Celestial Soul Physique was discovered.
That person remained in slumber deep inside the Soul Restricted Area. Unless the Soul Restricted Area was facing a great disaster, that person would never show himself.
He was known as the Honorable Souler, the pillar of the entire Soul Restricted Area. He was the reason why the Soul Restricted Area became and remained a force to be reckoned with across the universe.
Now that another Nine-colored Celestial Soul Physique had appeared in the Soul Restricted Area, Ziyue Changkong would become the main focus.
Even if he could not reach the same height as the Honorable Souler, half or less would be more than enough, and it was a great thing for the entire Soul Restricted Area.
His name and achievement would be written in the history books!
All seven main tribes grew restless, and all the executives and high-ranking members did everything they could to verify the news.
Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren brought Jing Hui back to the manor.
For the sake of secrecy, he set up multiple restriction seals around the manor before waking Jing Hui.
The moment Jing Hui woke up and saw Chu Kuangren, her first reaction was to attack.
However, she was not Chu Kuangren’s match and was subdued swiftly.
“Ziyue Changkong, I will never submit even if I die,” Jing Hui said firmly.
Chu Kuangren shook his head helplessly. “If you die, I don’t know what I should say to Honghua and Shi Ying.”
He had reverted to his looks and voice.
Jing Hui was stunned. Her gaze turned cold and said, “Are you trying to fool me with Brother Chu’s looks? Stop dreaming! You don’t even have one percent of Brother Chu’s charms!”
The Violet Moon Tribe excelled in illusory technique.
She assumed that she had once again fallen into Ziyue Changkong’s illusion, and that was why she was seeing Chu Kuangren before her eyes.
Besides, she knew nothing about Chu Kuangren possessing the Nine-colored Celestial Soul Physique, and why would he be inside the Soul Restricted Area?
Chu Kuangren chuckled. “I’ll take that as a compliment.”
“Ziyue Changkong, you will never be able to mimic Brother Chu! Stop trying to fool me.”
Despite saying so, Jing Hui remained astonished.
Ziyue Changkong did a really good job of impersonating Chu Kuangren. Be it the voice, the looks, and even the aura felt the same.
Had his illusion grown so powerful?
The Violet Moon Tribe should not be underestimated!
“You’re here in the Soul Restricted Area to search for the Soul Concentration Flower to heal Shi Ying, am I right?” Chu Kuangren asked.
“How do you know that?!”
Jing Hui was shocked. Only less than a handful of people knew about Shi Ying’s condition.
How did Ziyue Changkong find out?
“That’s because I’m here for that exact reason.”
“Are you really Brother Chu?”
“You taught Honghua the Restful Mantra. Honghua once said that although you’re a Buddhist, you brought her out for drinks a few times, and–”
“Alright. Alright! I believe you!”
Jing Hui finally believed Chu Kuangren.
No one knew about it other than herself and Honghua.
As someone close to Shang Honghua and Shi Yin, it was not surprising that Chu Kuangren knew about it.
No matter how hyper-realistic the illusion was, it was impossible for Ziyue Changkong to know such a secret.
“Anyway, you’re really bold, Master Jing Hui. Do you know what this place is? How did you barge your way in here?” Chu Kuangren asked out of curiosity.
Even he had to use the Book of Earth to locate that place.
How did Jing Hui find out without the help of the book?
“Actually…”
After learning about Shi Ying’s condition, Jing Hui went on a journey to search for ways to heal her. That was when she learned about the Soul Concentration Flower and started searching for the Soul Restricted Area.
She spent two years searching but ended up fruitless.
Then, she ran into a sky-pride from the Soul Restricted Area and learned the existence of the place.
Although Jing Hui did not go into details, Chu Kuangren knew that particular sky-pride must have been tortured or worse. Otherwise, he or she would never reveal the location of the Soul Restricted Area.
“I know the Soul Restricted Area is a place to be reckoned with. Buddha Yun Lan has to stay back to protect the Far West Land, and since I’m already an Arch Gilded Immortal, I decided to give it a try.
“However, it seems like I’ve underestimated this place. If it weren’t for your help, I might already be dead,” Jing Hui said.
“It’s alright. I know how to get the Soul Concentration Flower, so I’ll take over from here. As for you, I might need you to stay in my Enchanted Sleeve for a while.”
Chu Kuangren then swung his sleeve and sucked Jing Hui into his Enchanted Sleeve.
After hiding Jing Hui in his sleeve, someone knocked on his door.
It was an elder from the Violet Moon Tribe. He had come with a simple purpose, which was to confirm the existence of the Nine-colored Celestial Soul Physique and its authenticity.
Chu Kuangren released a sliver of the energy, and it delighted the elder.
“It’s really the Nine-colored Celestial Soul Physique! The Violet Moon Tribe is blessed! The Soul Restricted Area is blessed!”
The elder laughed madly.
However, he soon realized that something was off. “Why does it feel like your soul energy fluctuation is a little different than before?”
No matter how good Chu Kuangren’s impersonation was, he was not the real Ziyue Changkong, hence the slight difference.
Fortunately, he already had an excuse for it.
“I’ve occupied this body’s Celestial Soul Physique and devoured his soul. The strangeness of the Celestial Soul Physique must have caused the slight difference in my soul energy fluctuation.”
“I see. Are you alright?”
“I’m fine,” Chu Kuangren said indifferently.
He answered every question with perfection.
“The higher-ups of the seven main tribes have decided to meet you after the Spiritual Divine Forest Realm’s opening. If everything goes well, they will train you as the next Young Overlord,” the elder said with a smile.
The Restricted Area Young Overlord was not someone that existed in every era.
The particular candidate must reach a certain level of excellence to be able to win the title. Even the best of the seven young masters, the Crimson Star Young Master, was not good enough to be called the Young Overlord.
Now, with the Nine-colored Celestial Soul Physique, Chu Kuangren had the potential to become the next Young Overlord. However, the emphasis was on the potential.
His performance would determine if he would be able to take on the title.
However, it was already confirmed that he would be a priority target for training, and his position would soon surpass the remaining young masters.
In the upcoming days, Chu Kuangren extradited the evil ghouls he got from Blue Ocean Eighteen Hells to the Underworld and remained in closed-door meditation in the manor.
On that particular day, half of the entire Soul Restricted Area was blanketed by a mystical violet light.
Almost everyone sensed the powerful spatial energy fluctuation.
It was an opening sign of the Spiritual Divine Forest Realm!
“It has finally opened. I shall see what mystery the Soul Restricted Area holds inside there,” Chu Kuangren said with a smile.
