Chu Kuangren attempted to get the Holy Violet Crown but was stopped by the great one from Kunlun Immortal Hall.
However, Bei Ming, who had been watching the battle at the Holy Violet Emperor Planet, made a move at a critical moment.
Two powerful Arch Gilded intents clashed in the void, and a heavy grunt could be heard. Then, the intent of the Immortal Hallâs great one started to ebb like the tide.
The clash happened within a blink of an eye, but Chu Kuangren could feel the void plunge into chaos because of it. A massive area of the void was wrecked because of the stray energy streams from the clash. It was like a typhoon wiping over the land.
The void trembled until it was on the brink of shattering.
âIt seems like Bei Ming has the upper hand.â
Chu Kuangren sighed a breath of relief when he sensed the Immortal Hallâs great one retreating.
It felt great having a great one watching over his back!
With that, he put the Holy Violet Crown away and planned to find a quiet place to refine it.
On the other hand, the great one from the Immortal Hall reacted with a pale expression and a horrified look.
âBei Ming is almost breaking through into the Embodier Realm!â
Although it was a clash between two Arch Gilded intent, he clearly felt the terrifying energy presence and the Daoist lawâs energy contained inside.
The Daoist law was the power exclusive to the Embodier Realm!
âThe Seven Celestial Demons rarely made a move against anyone. Now that Bei Mingâs strength is close to that of the Embodier Realm, I wonder how are the other six doing.â
âThe ancient Celestial Demon Tribe is not to be underestimated.â
âEspecially the legendary oneâ¦â
Not only the great one from the Immortal Hall, but even the others also sensed the swift clash and were similarly shocked.
There were only a handful of Embodier great ones in this current universe, and even the most powerful overlord-level force barely had any Embodier great ones.
Most of the Embodier great ones from ancient times never showed themselves in public.
Somewhere in the Immortal World, Bei Ming gradually retracted his Arch Gilded Intent. He grunted and said, âHmph! I didnât want to meddle with their affairs, but does he really think the Celestial Demon Tribe is weak?â
Mister Zhang clicked his tongue in awe. âIt seems like Brother Bei Ming is breaking through that realm ahead of me.â
âHaha, Iâm not that far ahead. Iâm only one step ahead of you.â Bei Ming chuckled. He knew Mister Zhang was as powerful as himself and should not be underestimated.
The real pillar of strength of the Hundred Academy was Mister Zhang, the one who traveled across the Immortal World all year long.
âWho would have thought that the kid would possess the transcendental power? This is surprising.â
âIâm afraid he might attract unwanted attention, especially from the old onesâ¦â Mister Zhang voiced his concerns.
The transcendental power was the power sought after by all cultivators in the universe, including the Embodier Realm great ones.
Chu Kuangren was not even a Gilded Immortal, yet he possessed such power. It was only understandable that the old Embodier great ones would decide to do something instead of sitting back and watching.
âIf those old bastards dare to do anything to him, the Celestial Demon Tribe wouldnât mind causing chaos again.â
Where heaven and earth collapsed, chaos would befall once more!
Chaos was a phenomenon caused by absolute terror, and even the Embodier great ones feared it.
Bei Mingâs words allowed Mister Zhang to have a deeper understanding of the Celestial Demon Tribeâs capabilities. It seemed like they had no lack of Embodier cultivators among them.
âThat kid has a lot of karma on him. Even an Embodier great one wouldnât dare to simply touch him. Besides, heâs still in the Battle of the Heavenly Champions, so thereâs no need to worry for now,â Mister Zhang said.
The Arch Gilded Immortals dared not simply make a move against the Heavenly Champions, and the same went for the Embodier great ones.
âHuh? Something is happening to the Interstellar Arenaâ¦â
A single star flickered brightly in the sky, followed by tens of thousands more, lighting the dark sky bright.
The Seventy-two Hellish Planets, the Big Dipper Thirty-six Stars, the Four Constellations, the Big Dipper itself, and the Circumstantial Stars were all shining brightly.
Countless starlights in the Interstellar Arena shone and intertwined, forming a massive ring that could shadow a continent. Countless Daoist patterns gathered above it, and its godly light shadowed the brightest stars in the universe.
Countless great ones widened their eyes at the phenomenon.
âThatâs the Celestial Table and the Interstellar Arena! The final trial has arrived!â
âLegend has it that whoever can last until the end in the ring shall receive the Interstellar Arenaâs final Opportunity of Fortune!â
âThe ring has finally appeared.â
The appearance of the Interstellar Ring sent every sky-pride into a frenzy.
All the sky-prides longed for the final Opportunity of Fortune of the Interstellar Arena.
Some of them arrived at the ring and tried to go inside but were immediately blasted away by a powerful force.
âWhatâs wrong? I canât go in.â
âWait. Look at the tablet. There are words on it.â
Some of the sky-prides noticed the writing on the Celestial Tablet.
âLeave your name here and enter the ring!â
As literal as it could be, one would have to leave the name on the tablet before entering the ring.
âThatâs easy!â
One of the sky-prides cackled with laughter and flew up to the tablet with his sword. Then, he channeled his Immortalâs Core and tried to carve his name onto the tablet.
However, no matter how strong his sword qi was, it did not leave a mark on the tablet.
The massive Celestial Tablet did not even budge!
âHow is this possible?â
The sky-pride was stunned.
He was not weak by any means. He was only one step shy from achieving the True Immortal Realm, but even he failed to leave his name on the tablet.
It seemed like entering the ring was not as easy as he expected.
âThis Interstellar Ring is prepared specifically for those top-notch sky-prides and Prodigies,â said one of the sky-prides reluctantly.
The Opportunity of Fortune was right in front of their eyes, but they were not even qualified to enter.
âThis is life.â
One of them exclaimed sentimentally and left.
Back at Holy Violet Emperor Planet, after Chu Kuangren acquired the Holy Violet Crown, he noticed the appearance of the Interstellar Ring.
He narrowed his eyes in the direction of the phenomenon.
âInterstellar Arenaâs final Opportunity of Fortune, huh? Interesting.â
Chu Kuangren did not fly over to the ring immediately since it would be there for some time.
Instead, he sent the Skeletal Yin General back to Fengdu and then turned to the Feng Clan Forefather.
He nodded and said, âThank you for your assistance.â
âSince we have decided to follow you, this is our duty,â the Feng Clan Forefather said with a smile.
âAfter I refine the Holy Violet Crown, the Feng clan will be free,â Chu Kuangren said.
The Feng Clan Forefatherâs eyes gleamed. âThank you, Master!â
The other great ones watching from the dark reacted with a complicated look to Chu Kuangrenâs words, especially the great ones from Holy Violet Emperor Planet.
Leaving the planet and regaining their freedom was their life goal, and now, it was entirely possible if they decided to submit to Chu Kuangren.
They could be like the Feng clan and regain their freedom! They would no longer be trapped on the planet and could go wherever they wanted!
