2232 If I’m Putting My Life on the Line by Making This Bet, He Should Compensate With His Life Too, Sword Demon Dugu Bupo
“Universal-Shattering Yin Yang Strike!”
Lu Wuheng’s ultimate technique erupted.
He opened both his arms wide, releasing surges of black and white qi from the palms of his hands. The two energies swirled in the air before intertwining together.
The Yin and Yang energies merged to form a tremendous power that sent tremors everywhere.
“Destroy him!”
His Yin-yang energy swept toward Chu Kuangren like a never-ending tide.
Wave upon wave of that attack was unleashed, shattering the surrounding void into pieces.
However, Chu Kuangren remained still in the face of that powerful technique and allowed the attack to come at him.
He looked like he was smiling, but he was snickering!
The smile made Lu Wuheng’s anger boil even more. His power skyrocketed and allowed the effect of his technique to reach another level, making it even more terrifying.
“Boom!”
When his attack landed on Chu Kuangren, bursts of energy erupted and sent shockwaves everywhere.
Those who were too close to the impact were all sent flying backward.
“What a terrifying attack. So this is Lu Wuheng’s true power.”
Both Ao Qingtian and Liu Ruohuo exchanged glances.
If they had fought Lu Wuheng earlier and had to face that technique, their chances of survival would have been nonexistent.
“I bet if Chu Kuangren’s not dead, he must be critically injured from taking the full force of Senior Brother Lu’s attack. It serves him right for being such an arrogant person. Now, he knows how powerful Senior Brother Lu is.”
“Haha, but don’t you forget that if he uses his other arm or he’s pushed back, he’ll have to kill himself.”
“That’s right. Let’s see if he can act cocky after this.”
The Heavenly Human Sanctuary cultivators discussed among themselves with smiles on their faces.
They were filled with joy.
“What are you guys laughing at?”
Just then, an indifferent voice sounded, and a massive burst of Great Dao aura erupted.
As the shockwaves shattered, it revealed a figure standing tall. It was none other than Chu Kuangren.
He was still standing in his spot, with one of his arms behind his back while the other blocked the attack.
He was unscathed!
“Chu Kuangren, you really didn’t disappoint,” Mingyue Wuxia said softly. Under the veil, there was a smile on her stunning face.
?
“How is that possible?”
Lu Wuheng could not believe his eyes.
To think someone blocked his technique without taking any damage!
It was impossible!
“Now, it’s your turn to take my sword attack!” Chu Kuangren said.
He formed a sword hand sign, and a razor-sharp surge of sword qi shot into the sky.
Soon, an aura of destruction enveloped the land.
It was Sword Twenty-two!
When that sword attack was unleashed, massive bursts of sword qi gathered into a long river of sword qi.
Being the target of that attack, Lu Wuheng started trembling in fear. He instantly channeled his Great Dao energy to the maximum.
Not only him but the other cultivators were frightened by the aura.
“Oh no!”
The hearts of the Human Guardians in the sky sank.
They wanted to step in and put a stop to it, but the sword qi attack had landed!
“Boom!”
The sword qi attack’s momentum immediately made Lu Wuheng feel as though he was facing death in the face!
He channeled his Great Dao energy to the maximum and formed a gigantic Taiji symbol in an attempt to block the sword qi attack. However, that technique of his did not last long. The Taiji symbol was shattered the instant it collided with the sword qi attack!
The barrage of sword qi passed through him without any mercy!
Blood gushed out of Lu Wuheng’s body, and the Great Dao inside shattered.
In that moment of crisis, a figure descended from the sky and stood before Lu Wuheng, blocking what remained of that attack.
That person’s Yin Yang qi erupted.
A Taiji symbol, several times more powerful than Lu Wuheng’s, immediately appeared. Even then, it barely stopped Chu Kuangren’s sword qi attack.
The one who interfered was an elderly man wearing a Daoist robe with a Taiji symbol.
He looked at Chu Kuangren coldly.
“Chu Kuangren, I can’t believe you’ve done this. You’ve taken it too far!”
That elderly man was one of the Human Guardians of the Heavenly Human Sanctuary.
If he were to take action an instant later, Lu Wuheng would be dead by now.
No. Even though he managed to save Lu Wuheng, the latter was already critically injured by the sword qi. Lu Wuheng’s body was on the brink of crumbling, while his Great Dao was also damaged beyond repair.
The level of injury he sustained was no different than being a disabled person.
The thought of it fueled the elderly man’s anger.
Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren said casually, “If I’m putting my life on the line by making this bet, he should… compensate with his life too!”
Chu Kuangren made another sword hand sign, and an even more frightening burst of sword qi rose into the air.
It was the devastating world-ending attack, Sword Twenty-three!
“Bringing back a useless person is nothing but a waste. Why don’t I settle him for you here once and for all?” Chu Kuangren asked indifferently.
He did not know where Lu Wuheng’s hostility came from.
However, Chu Kuangren had always dealt with people hostile to him… by killing them!
“This attack…”
The elderly man’s face paled.
Chu Kuangren’s current sword attack was actually making him feel scared.
He knew he could not block that attack.
“Hahaha… What a splendid person you are, Chu Kuangren!”
A burst of laughter came from the skies.
Following that, a black surge of sword qi swept across the land with the might of a hurricane.
Its target was Chu Kuangren.
The sword intent within that sword qi attack happened to be Sword Twenty-three as well.
“Interesting.”
Chu Kuangren’s eyes lit up. He changed his target from that elderly man to the black hurricane instead, and both the Sword Twenty-Three attacks collided with tremendous might.
Since both attacks were filled with destructive intent, the clash resulted in a terrifying explosion. Dazzling lights filled with sword intent were released everywhere!
The remnant sword qi turned the void, mountains, rivers, land, plants… everything was reduced to rubble!
The crowd gulped in fear.
It was too terrifying.
The sword qi clash made them shudder.
That was certainly the most top-tiered clash beneath the level of Monarchs!
As the sword qi gradually dispersed, a figure was seen walking toward everyone. That person, donned in long black robes, possessed a chiseled face and a resolute expression. His hair was dancing wildly in the wind.
More importantly, black surges of sword qi were swirling around that person.
His presence tore cracks in the surrounding void, and his sword intent enveloped the whole area.
The crowd could feel their scalps turn numb as chills ran down their spine.
Even Gu Chan and Divine Bachelor Fengyue were looking at him seriously.
“He’s surely a powerful swordsman!”
“This person is certainly a Monarch Seed.”
Chu Kuangren looked at the person who arrived and said calmly, “You’re from the Divine Sword Palace.”
“That’s right.”
“The Divine Sword Palace sure has a lot of fools, huh? Gudu Bubai, Jue Jian, Jian Shifang… I have lost count of how many of you guys I’ve killed,” Chu Kuangren said indifferently.
“Hmph. Don’t compare me to them.” The person who arrived sneered.
Then, he retracted his sword intent that enveloped the whole area before focusing it on Chu Kuangren.
“Remember this. I am the Sword Demon, Dugu Bupo!”
Dugu Bupo’s name soon reverberated throughout the realm.
The crowd was in an uproar.
It was because his name had appeared on the Divine Bachelor Leaderboard recently.
He was ranked third on the Divine Bachelor Leaderboard, which meant he was only beneath Chu Kuangren and Dao Lingtian, who was ranked second.
“All of you are the same before the likes of my sword,”
“Boom!”
While Dugu Bupo’s sword intent surged mercilessly, an overwhelmingly earth-shattering sword intent also erupted from Chu Kuangren!
Unlike Dugu Bupo’s violent sword intent, Chu Kuangren’s sword intent was much more powerful and vast. It even contained a hint of sharpness and transcendence as if Chu Kuangren’s sword intent existed beyond the world and was powerful enough to slash through everything!
The instant his sword intent appeared, a deafening boom sounded.
Dugu Bupo’s sword intent was immediately suppressed.
“Wonderful! That’s more like it, Chu Kuangren! This is what makes you worthy to face my sword!”
Dugu Bupo’s face lit up with delight.
