Chapter 373: Act Of Theft From The Heavens, Crushing The Imperial Physique, Xiao Lintian Fails Miserably
Chu Kuangren was a little surprised by the incoming fist qi. However, he immediately concentrated his ferocious qi and retaliated using another fist technique.
When the two opposing forces collided, a massive explosion erupted with a bang!
A terrible tornado was formed in the aftermath, sweeping the empyrean walkers even further away.
“Who’s that? That’s some amazing strength he just displayed!”
“Did he say the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique? That’s the second-ranking physique amongst all Three-Thousand Daoist Physiques!”
“Oh dear, where’s this guy from?”
The spectators looked toward the source of the fist attack in shock.
A youngster in black robes was standing above a mountain peak. His facial features were hard and prominent, and he radiated an indescribable domineering aura!
Everyone who saw him could not help but feel an overwhelming sense of submission.
The youngster leaped forward, traversing thousands of meters, and arrived above Chu Kuangren. The former looked down at Chu Kuangren and said, “Chu Kuangren, perhaps you’ll have to seek my permission before you make yourself the greatest sky-pride!”
Chu Kuangren activated his Eyes of Revelation as he looked at the youngster.
“Xiao Lintian, an empyrean walker of the Heavenly Golden Palace, host of the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique. Trained in the Emperor Technique, Golden Seven-Step Technique, Emperor Technique…”
“His combat strength is equivalent to that of a Great Sage…”
The messages from Chu Kuangren’s Eye of Revelation had certainly piqued his interest. “Oh, the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique. Now, that’s interesting.”
Ling Xiao and the other empyrean walkers were surprised too.
“I didn’t think a remarkable physique like the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique would appear in this generation. Just which part of the unknown lands did this person come from?”
Ye Xin, Zhan Long, and several other empyrean walkers were puzzled.
“If my guess is correct, he’s from the Heavenly Golden Palace!”
Then, Xue Zheng gasped and said, “The seniors in my orthodoxy have mentioned that the Heavenly Golden Palace originates from one of the deepest parts of the unknown lands. And at some point in their history, the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique emerged in one of its members, and they maintained dominance for an entire generation.”
“However, the host of the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique later ascended into the Emperor Realm and ventured into the Misty Ocean, one of the Ten Great Forbidden Areas. That was the last time anyone saw him. Since then, the palace has spent over millenniums recreating the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique in the physical world just so they can recover the glory of the palace. And now, it looks like they’ve succeeded…”
A few empyrean walkers gasped in shock.
Supreme Daoist Physiques were already rare occurrences, let alone the second-ranking Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique. Apart from it being a gift from the heavens, recreating a physique in the physical world was a tremendously difficult feat.
They were simply replicating the heavens’ creation!
It was an act of stealing from the heavens!
Apart from the empyrean walkers, the Sages were also shocked speechless by the Heavenly Golden Palace’s achievement.
“I’ve always thought that the Heavenly Golden Palace was obsessed with a lost cause. Well, I stand corrected now.”
“To recreate the physique after its first emergence is no doubt a tough feat. I wonder how much effort they invested into these operations.”
“In that case, perhaps Chu Kuangren has finally met his match!”
The Sages conversed with each other via their spiritual thoughts.
They were eager to observe the upcoming battle.
Who would win? The host of the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique, or the host of three Supreme Daoist Physiques?
“Chu Kuangren, seeing that you’ve just finished those rodents off, I shall allow some time for you to recover your spiritual energy.”
Xiao Lintian uttered proudly with his arms behind him.
Upon hearing his words, Ling Xiao and the other empyrean walkers grimaced and stared at Xiao Lintian furiously.
Rodents?!
If they had not sustained heavy injuries due to their fights with Chu Kuangren, the empyrean walkers would have challenged Xiao Lintian to a battle even though they were unsure if they were worthy opponents.
“Heh, if you chose to call them rodents, then you’re just a slightly fatter one. Even if I’m left with only half of my energy, it’s enough to make you crawl.”
Chu Kuangren said with a smile.
“Hmph, you’re ambitious but ignorant!”
Xiao Lintian grunted and launched a fist attack at Chu Kuangren, where a surge of golden fist strength that packed the momentum of a flood erupted.
It was an Emperor Technique of the Heavenly Golden Palace, Divine Golden Ray Punch!
Xiao Lintian intended to defeat Chu Kuangren in the most glorious way possible, hence he did not hold back at all as he channeled his spiritual energy to its limit!
Even a Great Sage would be fearful of such an attack.
“Raging Gods Fist!”
Chu Kuangren retaliated with another fist attack!
The moment their fist qi clashed together, a shockwave of Daoist Rhymes swept across the land.
Both cultivators were still in their original position. However, the ground surrounding them had collapsed, and there was a massive crater in the center.
“You’re the first who can withstand the power of my fist technique. Chu Kuangren, it looks like you’re worthy of my fullest power!”
Xiao Lintian said solemnly.
Xiao Lintian then unleashed a surge of powerful aura and his Daoist Rhymes soared upwards, interweaving to form the figure of a Divine Commander.
It was the Daoist Transformation of the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique, the Divine Commander Avatar!
As such, Chu Kuangren cast all three of his Supreme Daoist Physiques!
“Come, let’s see if your Supreme Daoist Physique is stronger than my Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique!” Xiao Lintian roared.
He launched a fist attack and the Divine Golden Ray Punch once again made its appearance.
This time, with the support of the Divine Commander Avatar, Xiao Lintian’s fist qi was brought to another level. It packed the force of unstoppable dominance!
The power of this fist qi was even more oppressive than the last!
Chu Kuangren simply shook his head as he observed Xiao Lintian’s attack.
With the Lingering Song before him, Chu Kuangren began to pluck the strings with his finger.
All of a sudden, a silent guqin Daoist Rhymes erupted!
Ripples began to form in the void.
It was the final movement of the Eight Celestial Demonic Chords, the Grand Melodic Void!
The guqin Daoist Rhymes, which the empyrean walkers had never seen before, spread across the void and clashed onto Xiao Lintian’s fist qi.
The devastating energy from the impact not only created an enormous crack in the ground that spanned several hundred meters deep, but it sent a tremor to everything within a thousand kilometers as well.
Meanwhile, Xiao Lintian’s fist qi disintegrated swiftly under the power of the Grand Melodic Void and his Divine Commander Avatar exploded!
Xiao Lintian spat out a mouthful of blood as he was sent flying by the impact.
The second-ranking Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique was destroyed with a single piece of Chu Kuangren’s guqin music!
It was a jaw-dropping scene for the spectators.
Even the Sages, who were secretly observing the battle, were dumbfounded.
“How’s that possible? How’s the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique so weak? This doesn’t make sense. It’s a Supreme Daoist Physique that’s ranked second in the world!”
“Even if Chu Kuangren possesses three Supreme Daoist Physiques, none of them could rival the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique. How is this possible?!”
“What a huge difference in abilities.”
The Sages said in disbelief.
The one who was most shocked amongst them all was the Heavenly Golden Palace’s Sage.
Xiao Lintian was the host of the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique, which was the result of their countless years worth of tireless effort and endeavor!
They had high hopes for Xiao Lintian to bring honor to their orthodoxy, ascend into the Emperor’s Realm, and then dominate the world!
Alas, their greatest hope was crushed by a piece of Chu Kuangren’s guqin music!
However, why was Xiao Lintian defeated in an instance while the other empyrean walkers were still able to put on a fight? After all, Xiao Lintian was supposed to be stronger than them.
“He didn’t use his full force when he battled us!”
Xiao Ling gulped at that realization.
/strong>
Having dealt a heavy blow from Chu Kuangren’s guqin music, Xiao Lintian could only crawl as he stared at Chu Kuangren in disbelief. There was a hint of fear in his eyes that he could not conceal.
“How’s it possible? How’s it possible… My Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique is supposed to be undefeatable, yet why have I failed…”
“What more… I failed so miserably!”
