Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

1676 Key to the Spiritual Sword Tribe’s Rise in Power, Ling Fei Wants to Become a Follower

The chess game grew more and more intense.

Chu Kuangren found himself taking the impact of his opponent's tremendous sword intent. If he did not have a sword intent that far outclassed his peers and a Rocksteady Daoist Core, Chu Kuangren would have lost long ago.

Hum!

At that time, the Void Sword on Chu Kuangren's back suddenly trembled.

A burst of sword intent erupted from it!

The chessboard was flipped over, and its black and white pieces scattered over the floor. Then, that surging sword intent disappeared right after.

"Oh, is the Void Sword unhappy?"

The Sword God King glanced at the Void Sword with surprise, and it piqued his interest in that sword.

During his early years, he had also attempted to draw that sword out from the ground, but he was unsuccessful. Later, upon becoming a God King, he could have forcefully removed the sword using his superior cultivation, but he did not do that either.

That was because he knew he could not make the sword obey him if he were to suppress it using his cultivation level.

However, he could tell that the Void Sword truly recognized Chu Kuangren as its master.

Sensing the hostile sword intent on the chessboard, the Void Sword immediately took action to protect its master.

"My apologies. I just tamed this sword recently, so it's still a little bit rowdy." Chu Kuangren chuckled.

"You're just carrying it around wrapped in some cloth. Of course, it's going to be unhappy about it."

"Oh well, I don't have a scabbard for it anyway. I guess it'll have to deal with it for now."

"Try this," said the Sword God King as he took out a piece of black Immortal Metal. Terrifying gusts of sword qi then appeared in the palm of his hands, gradually forming and shaping the metal.

That piece of Immortal Metal eventually turned into a black scabbard.

"This scabbard is yours to keep," the Sword God King said with a smile.

"Thank you very much."

Chu Kuangren gladly accepted the scabbard and sheathed the Void Sword inside it.

"I still haven't had enough fun from our match earlier. Perhaps, another time then," the Sword God King uttered.

"Sure, of course."

After chatting for a while, Chu Kuangren left.

The Sword God King could not help but smile as he watched Chu Kuangren leave. "Splendid. Splendid indeed. It looks like the key to the Spiritual Sword Tribe's rise in power has fallen on the Heavenly Sword's shoulders now. "

Just as Chu Kuangren was arriving at his cavern, he noticed someone standing proudly in front of its entrance.

That person had an upright figure and held a crimson long sword as he stood before Chu Kuangren.

Seemingly noticing Chu Kuangren's return, that person turned around, looked at Chu Kuangren, and said, "Draw your sword now! Show me the strength of the Heavenly Sword!"

"You're still too weak."

Chu Kuangren shook his head, not wanting to be bothered by that man.

"What's the matter? Is the legendary Heavenly Sword afraid to fight?" The man with the crimson sword sneered.

"Weak taunts like that won't have any effect on me."

Many people were soon attracted to the area by the commotion. They were watching curiously to see how things would unfold.

"It's Ling Fei. I can't believe he's really challenging the Heavenly Sword to a fight."

"However, is he strong enough to face off against the Heavenly Sword?"

"Oh well, even if he's not, I don't mind watching him try. We'll get to see the Heavenly Sword in action for once, after all. "

Everyone was extremely excited.

Chu Kuangren could not care less and continued walking toward his cavern. However, Ling Fei continued blocking his way in a very annoying manner.

"Now listen to me, Heavenly Sword, if you don't–"

Before Ling Fei could finish his sentence, the flash of a sword ray immediately appeared before his eyes.

The sword ray was like a raging torrent sweeping toward him mercilessly!

At that moment, he instantly felt as if he was plunged into an ocean of sword qi, and there was no way for him to fight against it. Before he realized what had happened, a huge impact hit him. His bones cracked as he was sent flying hundreds of meters away. Upon landing on the ground, he was instantly knocked out cold.

The surrounding sword cultivators and swordsmen looked at each other, wondering what the hell had just happened.

"Did any of you see the Heavenly Sword unsheath his blade?" someone asked.

Everyone shook their heads, implying that they had seen nothing.

Ignoring the crowd, Chu Kuangren returned to his cavern. He had now obtained the Void Sword and met with the Sword God King.

The next thing he wanted to do was to start his closed-door meditation to continue cultivating, and he did that while waiting for the Ancient Central Heaven Planet to open.

Several days later, Ling Fei woke up sluggishly. When he tried to get up, he instantly felt a tremendous pain all over his body.

When he recalled what happened a few days ago, he realized that he was blasted away by the Heavenly Sword!

'Was it a single sword attack?'

'Was I sent flying by a single attack?!'

'No, that can't be right.'

He was not even sure whether the Heavenly Sword drew his blade or not. In other words, that was not even a proper attack.

"Is this the power of the Heavenly Sword? How terrifying indeed!"

Ling Fei took a deep breath with a look of astonishment in his eyes.

However, his look of shock then turned into that of determination.

"Once the Heavenly Sword appears, all swords in the world shall kneel as the Heavenly Sword stands above the heavens itself!"

"That was the ancient prophecy. The Heavenly Sword shall be the one to lead the Spiritual Sword Tribe into a better future and achieve unprecedented glory! It would benefit me to stay by his side before the future unfolds!"

"It is decided. I'm going to be the Heavenly Sword's follower!"

Ling Fei looked at the cavern nearby and took out a medicinal pill. After he swallowed it, his wounds soon recovered.

Not long after, he arrived at Chu Kuangren's cavern and was about to step inside. However, at the thought of Chu Kuangren's attack earlier, he quickly stepped back.

"If I enter his cavern without permission, I will surely suffer a fate worse than that day. I better wait outside," Ling Fei thought.

As time went by, several months passed.

Chu Kuangren slowly woke up from his cavern and began to gauge the abundant Immortal's Core energy within him. "Immortal's Core Flower – Fourteenth Grade, Life's Core Flower – Twenty-Fourth Grade, Soul Flower – Fifteenth Grade. Well, it looks like I've fully surpassed the Trinity Flower Arch Gilded Immortal Realm now. I'm sure it won't be hard for me to reach the Five Qi realm if I tried."

Back then, he had to resort to the Damage-reversing Technique when facing a Five Qi-realm cultivator in battle. Right now, even without using that technique, an ordinary Five Qi-realm cultivator would be no match for him.

"I still don't know when the Ancient Central Heaven Planet will open. I might as well take the time to venture out and find out as much information about this universe while I'm at it," Chu Kuangren thought.

When war between the Central Heaven Universe and Pan Gu Universe inevitably broke out in the future, his universe would be at a disadvantage if they did not understand their enemy well enough.

With that, he exited his cavern.

At this time, someone immediately rushed toward him.

Chu Kuangren recognized that person. It was Ling Fei, the one who was sent flying with a casual swing of his sword qi previously.

'What's his deal? Still not giving up?'

A cold glint shot out from Chu Kuangren's eyes. If Ling Fei still wanted to seek trouble, Chu Kuangren would not hesitate to kill him on the spot.

"Thud!"

Just when Chu Kuangren was prepared to attack, Ling Fei immediately knelt before him, his knees landing on the ground with a great thud. "Honorable Heavenly Sword, please accept me as your follower! I hereby pledge my loyalty and would do anything you ask!"

Not only Chu Kuangren but everyone else who heard that was stunned.

What kind of person was Ling Fei?

He was one of the few Spiritual Sword Tribe Prodigies who were second only to the late Chen Feihu in strength! Even Chen Feihu could not have gotten someone like Ling Fei to become his follower.

However, Ling Fei had chosen to kneel before Chu Kuangren and was begging to be accepted as his follower!

The point was, how could someone like Chen Feihu possibly be compared to the likes of the Heavenly Sword?!

That person was the one and only Heavenly Sword!

He was someone who would not only stand at the precipice of Sword Dao, but he was also the prophesized leader who would bring the Spiritual Sword Tribe to the peak of their power in the entire universe.

How could the likes of Chen Feihu even measure up to someone like him?

Becoming the follower of such an incredible person would not be a bad thing at all! In fact, those who become his followers would surely benefit too!

Once Chu Kuangren became the leader of the Spiritual Sword Tribe in the future, the standing of his followers would also increase compared to everyone else.

"D*mn it. No wonder Ling Fei knelt without any hesitation. He was thinking of the same thing as us!"

"Wow, Ling Fei. I can't believe you're so despicable. Honorable Heavenly Sword, you can ignore him. I'm confident I can be a much better follower than him."

"Move away, everyone. I'm becoming his follower no matter what."

"Honorable Heavenly Sword, please consider having me as your follower. I can even help warm your bed, you know."
