Chu Kuangren was too powerful.
Over the years, several Sages had died in his hands, which made many sage orthodoxies extremely wary of him.
However, no one had the guts or excuse to confront Chu Kuangren.
Now.
Here was the excuse.
Chu Kuangren had won the championship and wreaked havoc in the First City. They could use that as an excuse to assist the Third Prefect in killing Chu Kuangren.
Moreover, the alliance of the Sages from the First City, Sky Emperor Palace, Thunder Falcon Tribe, and Overlord Sage Tribe had emboldened them. With so many Sages, how could they not deal with Chu Kuangren?
At that thought, a few Sages were tempted.
This was especially true for the sage orthodoxies that Chu Kuangren had won a lot of soulstones from. If Chu Kuangren were to die, they could simply renege on their debt!
"Chu Kuangren, it's not easy for a junior like you to achieve so much. However, your lack of morals and arrogance is unforgivable. Don't blame us for taking action then."
A Sage walked out from the void. He was the Third Forefather of the Linghu clan, which also had a history with the Black Heaven Sect.
"If you want to fight, let's fight. Cut the crap."
Chu Kuangren pouted and said.
Chu Kuangren, you can only blame yourself for going overboard with your actions. That's why you've angered the masses. " Another Sage stood out. It was the Tempest Mountain Sage, who did not have a good relationship with the Black Heaven Sect.
Chu Kuangren calmly glanced at the Sages. "Overlord Sage Tribe, Thunder Falcon Tribe, Linghu clan, Tempest Mountain, First City, Sky Emperor Palace … Are there any other Sages who want to mess with me?"
The Sages from the other orthodoxies looked at each other, but no one stood out. Although there were still some who wanted to take this opportunity to kill Chu Kuangren, the consequences would be unimaginable if they failed.
They did not want to take the risk so easily.
"Elder Chu, I'll lend you a hand!"
At that moment, the School of White Lotus's Sage suddenly stood out.
She had hesitated before this.
However, in the end, she still chose to help Chu Kuangren.
Six Sages surrounded Chu Kuangren!
To the crowd, Chu Kuangren had no chance of turning the tables. It was pointless for the School of White Lotus's Sage to help.
However, the School of White Lotus and the Black Heaven Sect were allies. If she did not step out, their alliance would come to an end.
This move of hers could be said to be a huge gamble!
She was betting on the fact that Chu Kuangren had a way to turn the situation around. That way, she would be able to secure a stronger alliance for the School of White Lotus.
"Haha, thank you for your kindness, but this is my Black Heaven Sect's matter. Let me handle it myself!"
With that, Chu Kuangren turned the Descendant Self Sword in his hand, and the three hundred and sixty-five longswords around him aimed at the six Sages.
"Come, let me experience the skills of the Sages."
Chu Kuangren smirked without fear.
In fact, everyone could see excitement in his eyes!
Lunatic!
This fellow was truly a lunatic!
The Sages thought to themselves.
Facing a Sage with a cultivation below that of a Sage was already unimaginable, but he was actually excited to face six Sages with a cultivation below that of a Sage. If he was not a lunatic, then what was he?!
Quite a number of cultivators in the First City had noticed this.
All of them were dumbfounded.
Facing six Sages by himself!
This was something that they did not even dare to imagine.
Meanwhile, the sky-prides felt an indescribable sense of defeat when they saw that. They understood that Chu Kuangren's spirit alone was something they could never hope to achieve.
"Chu Kuangren, how dare he do this?!"
"Facing six Sages with a cultivation below that of a Sage? Only Chu Kuangren would do something as crazy as this."
"This guy is really too scary."
Countless people looked at the white-robed figure in the sky, feeling that the petite figure had an unimaginable majesty!
In the crowd.
Lan Yu, Nangong Huang, and the others also saw Chu Kuangren.
They stared at that figure with endless passion in their eyes.
"Is the Sect Leader doing this for us?"
Jin Feiyan murmured.
"That's right."
Lan Yu nodded. "With Master's personality, he would never sit back and watch the people around him be treated unfairly."
"Sect Leader …"
Nangong Huang and the others had an indescribable feeling.
They were touched, resentful, and unwilling …
They were touched by Chu Kuangren's actions, resentful of the shameless actions of the Sky Emperor Palace and the First City, but more than that, they were unwilling.
They were too weak.
They could only rely on Chu Kuangren to protect them. If they were stronger, why would they let Chu Kuangren face all of this alone?
Lan Yu had the same thought too.
She had never yearned for power as much as she did at that moment.
…
In the sky, Chu Kuangren was facing six Sages alone!
Just as he was about to activate the sword formation, the Thunder Falcon Tribe's Sage took out a black rock and threw it into the air.
The rock crackled with the power of thunder and produced a strong magnetic force that greatly increased the difficulty of Chu Kuangren's sword formation. Countless swords vibrated violently in mid-air.
"Oh, a Prime Magnet!"
"No, this is a Prime Magnet!"
Chu Kuangren narrowed his eyes.
A normal Prime Magnet would need at least five hundred kilograms to affect his sword formation. The Shang clan had used this trick to restrain his sword formation before, but the Thunder Falcon Tribe's Sage had only taken out one.
Forget five hundred kilograms, he did not even know if there was even one kilogram.
However, that terrifying magnetic force was even more terrifying than what Chu Kuangren had encountered in the Shang clan. Hence, this was no ordinary Prime Magnet.
It was the essence of a Prime Magnet, the Prime Magnet!
This piece of Mother Magnets was at least a Saint-tier treasure.
"Chu Kuangren, we've carefully studied your capabilities. Do you really think that we wouldn't be prepared for you?"
The Thunder Falcon Tribe's Sage smiled.
The other Sages' eyes lit up.
"His sword formation has been restrained, so his combat strength has been greatly reduced. Let's take this opportunity to suppress him!" Heavenly Emperor Sage Zhang said loudly.
Third Forefather Linghu was the first to attack.
Using his finger as a sword, a majestic Sword-based Daoist Rhyme gathered and turned into a terrifying sword shadow that slashed at Chu Kuangren.
That attack caused the void to rumble as if it was about to be torn apart.
"Brilliant Heaven Shaking Fist!" The Graygrill Sage also attacked. With a punch, the violent qi turned into a black fist qi that descended like the might of the heavens!
"Azure Dragon Sword Art!" The Tempest Mountain Sage moved his finger and a sword qi took the form of a dragon that carried a violent Sage Daoist Rhyme.
The combined attack of the three Sages was incredibly powerful.
Chu Kuangren's sword formation was restrained, but a mysterious Daoist Rhyme erupted from his body and formed white lotuses in the void.
It was the Sage Ruler Technique, the White Lotus Light of Purification!
The white lotuses contained an unparalleled defensive ability that disintegrated the sword qi and fist qi. However, it was still a Sage-grade attack. Even if Chu Kuangren fully activated the White Lotus Light of Purification, he still could not completely block it.
The sword qi pierced through his shoulder, and the fist qi landed on his chest.
Chu Kuangren was instantly sent flying and landed on the floating island far away. With a loud crash, the entire island shook for a moment.
Smoke and dust filled the air, and everyone quickly looked over.
Did he succeed?
