Ancient Battlefield, inner circle.
Chu Kuangren fiddled with a black crystal in his hand.
This crystal was irregularly shaped, and it contained a dense amount of innate ferocious qi. It was more than ten times more than the amount in Chu Kuangren's body.
"What a treasure."
Chu Kuangren smirked.
If he could absorb the Innate Ferocious Crystal, he would be able to push his Infallible Tormented Body to the Greater Success stage and above.
At that time, the combat power that he would be able to unleash would be extremely terrifying. Coupled with other techniques, ordinary Sages would not be a match for him at all.
However, there was still a huge gap between them and the likes of Giant Torment Sage King.
Even though his innate ferocious aura was similar to Giant Fiend Sage Monarch's after merging with the innate ferocious crystal, Giant Fiend Sage Monarch had spent countless years in the Ancient Battlefield and absorbed countless ferocious auras. It wasn't as simple as possessing innate ferocious aura.
"Why isn't the White-robed General out yet?"
Chu Kuangren murmured as he looked at the Ancient Battlefield's Core Area.
At this moment, a strong wave of murderous aura came from behind him.
A saber light that was as fast as a meteor suddenly swept over!
Chu Kuangren retaliated with a backhand slap and activated the Human Mountain Stamp. A violent surge of Human Mountain energy forcefully shattered the saber ray.
He looked into the distance and saw a tormented soul wielding a long saber flying towards him. It was one of the Inner Zone's Ten Tormented, the Saber Wielder!
Other than the wielder saber, there was also a tormented spirit in the shape of a tiger and a huge black worm that was squirming on the ground like a small hill.
They were the Tiger Fiend and Insect Fiend of the Inner Zone's Ten Ferocious Beasts …
Other than that, there were also a large number of high-level tormented souls.
Chu Kuangren was stunned for a moment.
"Why are there so many tormented souls?"
Suddenly, he came back to his senses and looked at the Innate Ferocious Crystal in his hand. "Was it attracted by the Innate Ferocious Crystal?"
The Innate Ferocious Qi was undoubtedly a great opportunity for tormented souls, as it could even help them develop sentience.
Not to mention this crystal that contained a strong innate ferocious aura.
He guessed that all the tormented souls in the Inner Zone were rushing towards him.
Chu Kuangren tossed the Innate Ferocious Crystal into the air twice before he kept it into his Yin and Yang Ring. He smiled and said, "How dare a bunch of puny fiends act so presumptuously."
Even the Sage-level tormented souls in the Core Zone could not do anything to him, let alone the tormented souls in the Inner Zone.
The anomaly of the Tormented Souls in the Inner Circle had attracted the attention of countless adventurers, especially since they had just experienced the terrifying scene of the million-strong Tormented Army.
Now that he saw the tormented souls acting strangely, he could not help but feel a little terrified.
"What's going on? Have these tormented souls gone mad? "
"It can't be. Don't tell me they're going to be like the million-strong Tormented Army and charge out of the Ancient Battlefield to wreak havoc on the world?"
"The Ancient Battlefield has been quiet for so many years. It's only been a few days. Why are there so many strange occurrences?"
"Something's not right. Look, the tormented souls are heading towards the Ancient Battlefield's core area. What's going on?"
"Let's go take a look …"
Some cultivators pondered for a moment, and then they couldn't restrain their curiosity and intended to head over to see exactly what had caused the baneful spirits to move.
It didn't take long for them to approach the central area. All those who dared to come here possessed considerable strength, and the weakest amongst them was at the Exalt Realm.
"Look, there's a person over there."
Someone in the crowd exclaimed.
A white dot appeared in their vision, and that white dot was the target of countless tormented souls.
That white dot belonged to a person.
It was a man dressed in a white, wide-sleeved robe with a magnificent longsword hanging from his waist. His aura was ethereal and otherworldly.
"It's Chu Kuangren!"
Someone in the crowd recognized Chu Kuangren.
Everyone looked at him in surprise.
"Why is he here?"
"Wait a minute, he seems to be the target of these tormented souls. What did he do to make so many tormented souls target him?"
"Look, those are the Tormented Saber Tormented, Tormented Insect Tormented, Tormented Giant Demonic Tormented, and a few others from the Inner Zone's Ten Tormented. I can't believe these terrifying existences are here. Can Chu Kuangren handle them all by himself?"
The tormented souls had gathered in groups, and there were even countless high-level tormented souls among them. Almost all of the Inner Zone's Ten Tormented were present as well. Their ferocious qi swept across the area, and their formation was not any weaker than the million-strong Tormented Army from before.
Compared to them, Chu Kuangren seemed very small and insignificant.
"Don't you guys forget that he's Chu Kuangren!"
One of the cultivators took a deep breath and said in a serious tone.
The others fell silent upon hearing that. If it were any other cultivator standing in front of these tormented souls, or even if it were an army of tens of thousands of cultivators, they would not think that they had any chance of winning.
However, Chu Kuangren was different.
He alone could defeat an army of tens of thousands!
Everyone stared at Chu Kuangren, wanting to see how he would deal with them.
However, he did something that shocked everyone.
He gently raised his hand, and the sand on the ground floated up before him before it condensed into a … chair?!
Just like that, Chu Kuangren leisurely sat on the chair as the countless tormented souls approached him.
His action shocked many of the cultivators at the scene.
After all, they were already so frightened by the countless tormented souls' ferocious qi that their faces turned pale just by looking at them.
However, Chu Kuangren remained so calm even when facing these tormented souls.
"He … He's actually sitting down?!"
Some of them said in disbelief.
Some of them rubbed their eyes, wondering if they were hallucinating.
At that moment, something even more shocking happened.
Chu Kuangren sat on the sand chair and snapped his fingers. Then, surges of sword qi emerged from his body and turned into clones.
These clones were formed from sword qi and looked exactly like Chu Kuangren. Sword qi and Daoist Rhymes surrounded their bodies.
"What … What technique is this?!"
"Oh my god, there are so many clones."
Everyone was in disbelief.
However, the scene in front of them was very real.
Chu Kuangren sat on the sand chair and cast the Sword Qi Transformation Technique to form two hundred clones that charged towards the countless tormented souls in front of him!
These two hundred sword qi clones formed a terrifying sword qi defensive line. For a moment, not a single tormented soul could break through it.
"I'm waiting for someone anyway, so I might as well play with you guys."
Chu Kuangren sat on the sand chair and crossed his legs as he said.
Perhaps he felt that the two hundred sword qi clones were not that powerful, he took out the Sacred Emerald Sword Case and threw out one longsword after another.
With the addition of the sword qi clones and the treasured swords, Chu Kuangren's combat strength increased tremendously.
In the air, the cultivators who had just arrived were dumbfounded.
It was their first time witnessing a battle like this. Chu Kuangren was sitting comfortably while he sent out hundreds of sword qi clones to sweep the battlefield!
"So this is the peerless Chu Kuangren?"
"What kind of terrifying strength is this?!"
"By the heavens, I thought one of his sword qi clones could easily kill me. I can't believe he can create hundreds of them!"
"Is he still human?"
Everyone was dumbfounded.
"Roar!!"
One of the Inner Zone Ten Tormented, the Tormented Saber Wielder, let out a furious roar and charged towards Chu Kuangren.
Not only the Tormented Saber Wielder, but the other Inner Zone Ten Tormented had also broken through the defensive line.
After all, there was a limit to the strength of 200 Sword Qi clones, no matter how strong they were.
The Inner Zone Ten Tormented were Honorable Supremes after all.
"Is Chu Kuangren's real body going to attack?"
"I think so."
With the Tormented Saber Wielder as the leader, the Inner Zone Ten Tormented charged towards Chu Kuangren.
Chu Kuangren's body moved a little on the sand chair. Just when everyone thought he was going to get up to fight the Inner Zone Ten Tormented, they saw that he was still sitting there. All he did was move his butt a little.
He slowly raised his right hand and gently pressed it towards the Inner Zone Ten Tormented.
In the void, a terrifying spiritual power mixed with earth qi formed a majestic Godly Mountain that suddenly pressed down on the Tormented Saber Wielder and the other Inner Zone Ten Tormented!
Boom!
The ground erupted with a loud explosion and shook!
