On the way to the Hidden Sword Canyon, Chu Kuangren sat on the Fairy boat with his hand resting on his chin. He looked at the sea of clouds in front of him and sighed from time to time.
Not far away, Murong Xuan, Nangong Huang, and the others were watching.
"This is the sixth time."
Murong Xuan said.
"Six sighs in an hour. Is Big Senior Brother in trouble?" Nangong Huang asked worriedly.
"It can't be, right? Eldest Senior Brother is so powerful. What kind of trouble could possibly stump him?" Daoist Jun Yi was puzzled.
Lan Yu happened to pass by them. Jun Yi hurriedly went up to her and asked, "Lan Yu, do you know why Senior Brother sighed?"
Lan Yu pondered for a moment. "Sigh …"
Everyone looked at each other.
No, why are you sighing?
"Young Master, have some fruits."
Lan Yu brought a plate of fruits to Chu Kuangren's side.
"Okay."
Nangong Huang and the others gathered around Murong Xuan. Under the crowd's pushing and shoving, Murong Xuan reluctantly walked out and said, "Erm, Eldest Senior Brother, have you encountered some trouble recently?"
"Trouble? No, I'm eating well, dressing well, cultivating smoothly, and I'm getting more and more handsome. There's no trouble at all. "
"That's not right. If there isn't any trouble, then why are you sighing here?" Jun Yi said.
"Oh, you're talking about this."
Chu Kuangren came to a sudden realization. He then shook his head and sighed. "Sigh, now that you mention it, I feel a little helpless. Tell me, I'm still so young, yet my Honorable Teacher wants me to be the Sect Leader. Isn't this just nonsense?"
Hearing this, the few of them were stunned.
What?
That's it, that's it?
Just where did you sigh for two hours?
After all, there were many people who wanted to become a Sect Leader but failed, let alone the Sect Leader of a Sage Orthodoxy.
This was a supreme glory!
However, Chu Kuangren now had a look of disdain on his face. This made Murong Xuan, Nangong Huang, and the others feel that it was ridiculous.
"I fully support Eldest Senior Brother becoming the Sect Master."
"That's right. Be it prestige or strength, no one in the entire Black Heaven Sect can compare to you, Elder Senior Brother. It's only normal for you to be the Sect Leader."
Nangong Huang and the others took it for granted.
Upon seeing that, Chu Kuangren felt even more helpless.
"Is there a sect leader as young as me in this world?"
Hearing this, the crowd came back to their senses.
Chu Kuangren was not even twenty years old this year. Not many Sect Leaders in the entire Firmament Star were as young as him.
Not to mention being in charge of a sage orthodoxy.
"In that case, Eldest Senior Brother might very well be the youngest leader of a sage orthodoxy in history!"
"Heavens, this is way too impressive."
"Haha, as expected of Eldest Senior Brother, you're amazing."
Chu Kuangren was stunned.
Why are you all more excited than me?!
Shouldn't you feel that it's inappropriate and then go back and ask the current Sect Leader not to pass the position to me?
"Sigh, I didn't expect that at such a young age, I would have to bear so much pressure in addition to being handsome that my age shouldn't have."
Chu Kuangren looked up and let out a long sigh.
…
Hidden Sword Gorge was located at the border between the Vermilion Bird Region and the Azure Dragon Region.
It was said that this place was once the teaching ground of an ancient Sword Dao orthodoxy. Even though it was in ruins now, the Dao aura of many Sword Cultivators remained here, so there was an endless stream of Sword Cultivators that came here to observe.
Especially since the Sword Gauntlet was about to open, the number of people who came here to watch the show was ten times more than usual.
Soon, Chu Kuangren and the others arrived.
"So this is the Hidden Sword Gorge? It really lives up to its name. "
Nangong Huang said in admiration.
The Hidden Sword Gorge was huge, and the rock walls on both sides of the gorge were engraved with sword scars that emanated all kinds of mysterious Daoist Rhymes.
To a sword cultivator, this place was like a holy land.
"The Sword Gauntlet is located in the deepest part of the gorge. Eldest Senior Brother, should we go check it out first?" Murong Xuan said.
"Alright."
Chu Kuangren nodded, and the group walked towards the depths of the Hidden Sword Gorge.
This group of people was very eye-catching.
Especially Chu Kuangren, who was leading the group at the front. His extraordinary temperament made him the center of attention no matter where he went.
Soon, someone guessed their identity.
"It's the people from the Black Heaven Sect."
"So they're here too."
"Tsk, the person walking at the front is so extraordinary. He must be the legendary Chu Kuangren."
"It must be him. Rumor has it that this person has sparred with Sages and even killed Honorable Supremes. His strength is terrifying."
"Among the sky-prides in the Firmament Star, I'm afraid not many can be compared to this person. This person is also known as the most promising person to become an Emperor."
The crowd discussed among themselves.
Chu Kuangren did not care at all. He was used to the feeling of being the center of attention. As long as they did not suddenly rush up to him, he could ignore them.
Compared to the crowd's discussion, he was more concerned about the countless sword scars on both sides of the gorge.
Some of these sword scars were very old, and the remnant Daoist Rhymes were also very thin. However, some of the sword scars were very new, as if they were freshly carved.
Along the way, Chu Kuangren saw a sword cultivator who was trying to understand a sword scar. Then, he felt something and waved his sword, leaving a sword scar on the rock wall.
"It seems that the sword scars in this gorge are increasing by the minute!" Chu Kuangren murmured.
However, it was a pity that although there were many sword scars here, only a few of them could do anything to Chu Kuangren.
Chu Kuangren's understanding of Dao techniques, especially sword Dao, was so deep that even an ordinary Sage could not surpass him.
The sword scars on the gorge were, at most, left behind by Honorable Supremes. How could they be of any use to him?
"I only hope that the Sword Gauntlet can give me some surprises."
Chu Kuangren murmured.
Gradually, Chu Kuangren felt an incredibly mysterious Daoist Rhyme coming from the front. Then, he saw a tall black building.
The building was ninety-nine feet tall and had a total of fifty floors. It had sharp edges and was as straight as a sword.
At the entrance of the building, there was a plaque with the words "Sword Gauntlet" engraved on it. Every stroke of the plaque looked as if it was carved by a sword, and it exuded an incredibly cold Sword-based Daoist Rhyme!
The Daoist Rhyme that Chu Kuangren felt from afar was emitted from these two words.
It was just two words, but it far surpassed the countless sword scars in the gorge.
Chu Kuangren stared at the two words. In a trance, he seemed to see a white-robed man performing a sword dance in front of him, and sword qi surged in all directions.
Hum …
Chu Kuangren's body trembled slightly as his Sword-based Daoist Rhyme emanated and rushed towards the two words. It was as if he had crossed countless years to clash with the white-robed man across time and space.
When the two Sword-based Daoist Rhymes met and collided, the entire Hidden Sword Canyon shook. The Daoist Rhymes on the countless sword scars on the walls were disrupted, and some of the weaker ones even collapsed.
Hence, everyone was shocked as they did not know what was happening.
Only a few strong swordsman cultivators who were closer to the Sword Gauntlet noticed something as they stared at Chu Kuangren's back in horror.
"He's resonating with the Sword Gauntlet's Daoist Rhyme!"
"This situation is like two great Sword Sages sparring in front of us. How did Chu Kuangren do it?"
"The rumors are true. This person can really spar with a Sage."
…
"So this is the Sword Gauntlet. This trip was not in vain."
Chu Kuangren smiled and retracted his gaze. The Sword-based Daoist Rhyme around him dissipated, and he no longer looked at the two words.
