Chapter 428 - Heavenly Punishment Seal, The End Of An Era
Chapter 428: Heavenly Punishment Seal, The End Of An Era
Within that beam of light, Chu Kuangren forced his way into breaking through his cultivation realm!
Inside his spiritual mound, that purple nine-petalled Lotus Heart was starting to solidify!
Right now, all the great ones in Firmament Star were watching this scene with bewilderment. A Supreme Sage is just too rare!
Even rarer than Emperors of Old!
Not many Emperors were Supreme Sages before they became Emperors.
If someone of a Supreme Sage’s caliber became an Emperor, he or she would surely be an unparalleled Emperor of the ages!
Chu Kuangren was still inside that heavenly tribulation’s beam of light, where the terrifying lightning energy continued to tear his body apart. However, with the rapid increase of his cultivation base, his Immortal body began to experience a transformation as well!
It was ascending from the third level to the fourth.
In this process, his Immortal Body had increased by multiple folds. It was already comparable to the destructive speed of the lightning.
“Ha! It seems that I’m the one with higher endurance.”
Chu Kuangren broke into a grin.
After a while, the heavenly tribulation’s beam of light slowly dissipated.
He had successfully ascended through the ninth tribulation lightning!
This moment made many of the great ones cheer.
“He did it. He freaking did it! I can’t believe this madman has really done it. He has ascended through such a powerful heavenly tribulation. Absolutely ridiculous.”
“Incredible…”
“An unprecedented Supreme Sage has been born.”
The tribulation lightning gradually receded.
The purple Lotus Heart inside Chu Kuangren’s body was close to solidifying its form, but at this moment, the Lotus Heart suddenly quivered…
“Eh?”
Upon sensing something amiss, Chu Kuangren stared into the sky.
Although the nine tribulation lightning had already ended, those widespread and grotesque multicolored tribulation clouds were still lingering in the skies with no signs of dissipating.
“What is this? Are there more tribulation lightning to come?!”
Chu Kuangren frowned.
It was not just him. The rest of the people were similarly surprised too.
“This can’t be. There are only nine tribulation lightning to a Sage’s ascension trial. This is an unchanged fact ever since the beginning of time. Why are these tribulation clouds still here?!”
“Unless… it’s a heavenly punishment!!”
As if they had realized something, some of the great ones suddenly exclaimed in terror.
A heavenly punishment.
It was something of a greater level to the heavenly tribulation.
Since the olden ages, heavenly punishment would only appear in the presence of anomalies that defied the laws of nature. However, the occasions of these kinds of anomalies were extremely rare…
Rumble…
A loud rumble echoed from the multicolored whirlpool in the sky.
A Heavenly Dao Aura that was even stronger than a heavenly tribulation spread in the sky, covering the entire Firmament Star. Countless living beings were now overwhelmed with fear.
“It really is the heavenly punishment!!”
Countless great ones, who were spectating the scene, were astonished.
The Nine Heavens and Underworld Demonic Realm had noticed something as well.
“Has there been an outlier in the realms which drew the heavenly punishment?”
“Could it be that Supreme Sage?”
“There is no way that breaking through the Sage Realm would draw a heavenly punishment. I think it’s something much more than just a Supreme Sage.”
“What kind of forbidden freak is attempting this ascension? I don’t think even those archaic ancient Emperors or immemorial beings would have this kind of endurance.”
“Isn’t this too outrageous…”
Firmament Star, Black Heaven Sect.
Chu Kuangren stared at the tribulation clouds in the sky. The terrifying domineering aura that encompassed the surroundings had already made the air damp and dense. He felt like he was in a swamp, and it was difficult for him to make any movement.
“Hold up. I think this is a bit too much for me.”
Chu Kuangren mumbled.
As if the Nine Colored Heavenly Tribulation was not enough, he was now given a heavenly punishment.
This d*mn heavens. How badly did the heavens want him dead?!
Just when Chu Kuangren was about to fight for his life, he saw several colorful chains drop down from the tribulation clouds in the sky!
Those colorful chains seemed like they were weaved from numerous runes. On it flowed a surge of mysterious Daoist Rhyme, as well as a Heavenly Dao Aura!
The chains strapped themselves around Chu Kuangren with lightning speed and turned into countless sparks which fused into his body.
In a split second, Chu Kuangren felt like the spiritual power and spiritual thought inside him had been locked in as he could not utilize them at all.
“The Heavenly Punishment Seal!”
“Who would’ve thought that it was the Heavenly Punishment Seal. Legends foretold that this seal could seal off a person’s entire cultivation base. Once bound by this seal, even an almighty Emperor would be nerfed into a defenseless normal folk.”
“Who knew that the heavenly punishment would restrict Chu Kuangren in this way? From today onward, he will be just like a normal person.”
“This is way too cruel. It might as well shock him to death and end his misery.”
Most of the great ones were able to make out the Heavenly Punishment Seal.
Some of them clapped their hands at his dismay, while some felt it was a shame.
High up in the sky, the multicolored tribulation cloud finally subsided after the Heavenly Punishment Seal had been delivered. Clarity was restored in both heaven and earth.
Nonetheless, the land filled with thousands of craters illustrated how much of a harrowing battle had taken place there.
Chu Kuangren probed the spiritual power inside his body and raised an eyebrow. He could feel the strips of colorful Heavenly Punishment chains surrounding his entire spiritual mound. The Six Great Foundation Levels and that incomplete purple Lotus Heart had all been restrained as well. He could not summon even the slightest bit of his spiritual power.
That strange phenomenon of purple haze that shrouded the horizon had also faded away the moment Chu Kuangren was cast with the Heavenly Punishment Seal.
All the great ones on the Firmament Star shook their heads with a sigh.
“This Chu Kuangren is indeed a freak. He has single-handedly wiped out the million-strong coalition army, including the two Boundary Emperors. What a shame that he couldn’t evade the heavenly punishment in the end!”
“Sigh. This guy has become such a freak that even nature could not tolerate him any longer.”
“From today onward, this world will have one less unparalleled sky-pride. But I think this is for the better. With this guy around, the other people would never get the chance to show their worth. This seal has come at the right time.”
There were also some great ones who wanted to seize this opportunity and end Chu Kuangren once and for all.
However, when the tribulation cloud dissipated, the Astonishing Sea of Clouds Formation was brought into operation once again. This mega formation was really very terrifying.
Without the cultivation base of a Boundary Emperor, not even Sage Rulers would dare trespass it.
In the end, the group of people had no choice but to put away their malicious intentions.
After all, if the Emperors of Old were not capable of breaking this Heavenly Punishment Seal, there was no way Chu Kuangren could.
They did not see the need to kill someone who was now a normal person. Venturing into the Astonishing Sea of Clouds Formation would be too big a risk to take for that.
The Nine Heavens and the Underworld Demonic Realm, too, had noticed the disappearance of that purple haze that shrouded the horizon. Each one of them could not help but feel sorry for the person.
“It seems that the Supreme Sage did not succeed in introducing himself to the world.”
“Has he been annulled by the heavenly punishment?”
“What a shame…”
The great ones merely expressed their sentiments at that moment, but after that, they stopped paying it any more heed.
Besides, they still had many things to attend to. In the Era of Great Battles, their utmost priority was to obtain the Emperor’s Opportunities of Fortune.
For this, they had already prepared to send their troops to the Firmament Star.
Meanwhile, on the Firmament Star, news of Chu Kuangren’s mighty feat of overcoming the million cultivator-army and two Boundary Emperors spread to every corner of the world. It brought utter astonishment to countless people.
News of him getting the Heavenly Punishment Seal naturally traveled as far as well.
The commotion this time was way too monumental.
“Chu Kuangren has gotten the Heavenly Punishment Seal? Haha, this is great news. He may not be dead, but from today onward, nobody is capable of competing with us anymore.”
“Lucky him. He got away with that one.”
“To drag several hundred thousand people into the ascension with him was an outrageous valiant act. Unfortunately, he still lost to the laws of nature.”
“The fact that he has been sealed means that the world is ours now!”
Many of the sky-prides who used to be overshadowed and humiliated by Chu Kuangren began to reveal their true character. They vowed to showcase their strengths in this Era of Great Battles.
It was as if Chu Kuangren’s Heavenly Punishment Seal was the end of an era.
