"Sect Leader Chu, the First City is indeed in the wrong. How about this? We can compensate the Black Heaven Sect with five hundred million Top-tier soulstones. What do you think?" The First Prefect said.
Everyone was shocked to hear that.
Five hundred million Top-tier soulstones was the first thing he said. The First City was really rich.
"Sure." Chu Kuangren nodded. "Also, I hope you can arrange for a public apology as soon as possible."
The First Prefect pondered for a while before he said, "Sect Leader Chu, five hundred million Top-tier soulstones is a huge sum for a sage orthodoxy. I hope you'll stop while you're ahead."
"What do you mean?" Chu Kuangren's gaze turned cold.
"Sect Leader Chu, please don't mention the public apology anymore. Five hundred million soulstones is already the First City's biggest concession."
The First Prefect said.
"I understand."
Chu Kuangren smiled.
Everyone was stunned to hear that.
Was Chu Kuangren planning to stop just like that?
However, when they thought about it, five hundred million soulstones was not a small sum. It was not impossible for Chu Kuangren to stop after receiving such a huge benefit.
However, the Sages did not feel relieved when Chu Kuangren stopped. Instead, they felt extremely frustrated.
Six of them could not suppress Chu Kuangren, and one of them was even killed by him. On the other hand, Chu Kuangren was not only unscathed, he even received five hundred million soulstones as compensation.
After this battle, the Sages were completely humiliated.
"It's great that Sect Leader Chu can look at the bigger picture."
The First Prefect nodded.
But then, a look of astonishment appeared on his face.
Chu Kuangren, who was opposite him, had his Lingering Melody guqin suspended in the air with all ten fingers on its strings. He said, "City Lord, please make your move."
Hearing this, everyone sucked in a cold breath.
Chu Kuangren had no intention of stopping at all!
He was determined to fight to the death with the First City!
Either a public apology and compensation, or the First City would be torn down. Other than that, he would not make any concessions!
The First Prefect's expression darkened when he saw how determined Chu Kuangren was. "Sect Leader Chu, five hundred million Top-tier soulstones is a lot. Why do you have to fight to the death with us?"
"Do you think my Black Heaven Sect looks like we lack soulstones?"
Chu Kuangren said.
What kind of joke was this?
You want to let this matter go with only 500 million Spirit Stones?!
He had won a total of 5,700,000,000 spirit stones from 15 sage orthodoxies in just two bets, so why would he be short of 500 million spirit stones?
"It seems like we're destined to fight today, Sect Leader Chu," the First Prefect said coldly.
"If you don't want to fight, then apologize."
"Hmph, let's get this out of the way first. Fists and legs have no eyes. If anything happens to Sect Leader Chu, the First City will not be held responsible."
The First Prefect was also infuriated by Chu Kuangren.
"Heh, City Lord, you can give it a try!"
Chu Kuangren said. He was now at the third stage of the Immortal Body, so even if he stood still, his opponent might not be able to kill him.
"Arrogant junior, I'll show you that there's always someone better than you out there!" the First Prefect said coldly, and an extremely overbearing Sage Daoist Rhyme suddenly erupted from his body.
This Daoist Rhyme was much stronger than the other Sages.
Even Chu Kuangren was forced back a few feet.
When the other Sages saw this, their expressions changed.
"This aura … is that of a Great Sage!"
"The City Lord of the First City is already a Great Sage!"
"On the surface, there aren't many sage orthodoxies that have a Great Sage. The City Lord of the First City has really hidden his strength well."
Everyone was shocked, but Chu Kuangren was not afraid at all.
When the First Prefect first appeared, he had already observed his opponent's cultivation level. Since he dared to fight again, he must have something up his sleeves.
He held his guqin in front of him and said, "The first four movements of the Eight Celestial Demonic Chords have already rendered the Six Sages helpless. Do you dare to listen to the last four movements, City Lord?"
"Please!"
The First Prefect stood with his hands behind his back.
Since things had come to this, he had no other way out!
Clang!
Guqin music filled the air.
The boundless intent between the heavens and earth crashed towards the First Prefect, and then countless guqin music transformed into sharp blades that swept out!
Boom!
A terrifying sound wave surged towards the First Prefect.
Boundless Heavens and Earth, Wind and Rain, Resounding Golden Bell!
The first three movements of the Eight Celestial Demonic Chords were played one after another.
The First Prefect took a step forward and the Great Sage Daoist Rhymes on his body circulated, forming an invisible barrier around him!
The boundless intent could not affect him at all. When the guqin music transformed into sharp blades that struck the barrier, it only caused ripples to form on its surface.
When the third movement, Resounding Golden Bell, transformed into sound waves, the First Prefect raised his hand and a terrifying surge of spiritual power erupted from the center of his palm.
With a loud explosion, the void exploded, and the shockwaves swept across dozens of kilometers.
Meanwhile, the First Prefect stood where he was, unmoved!
The other Sages could not help but exclaim at that.
"A Great Sage is indeed a Great Sage. His strength is indeed powerful."
"Yeah, Chu Kuangren's guqin music has rendered us helpless, but it can't do anything to a Great Sage. Although there's only a difference of one word between a Sage and a Great Sage, the difference in combat strength is like the difference between heaven and earth."
"Hmph, no matter how strong Chu Kuangren is, how can he compare to a Great Sage?!"
The Graygrill Sage snorted coldly.
However, Chu Kuangren, who was not far away, plucked the guqin strings with all ten of his fingers. He did not seem to care that his attacks had no effect on the First Prefect at all.
Countless Daoist Rhymes circulated around his body, and an incredibly mysterious Transcendental Strength was added to the guqin music Daoist Rhymes.
It was the Transcendent Coalescence Daoist Physique!
With the Daoist Physique's support, Chu Kuangren's guqin music became even stronger.
The sound of a powerful army suddenly rang out as if it had turned into an ancient battlefield. It was the Celestial Demonic Fourth Movement, Ambush from Ten Sides!
The guqin music had the effect of distracting one's mind. The First Prefect focused his mind and steadied his Daoist core before he dashed towards Chu Kuangren.
He raised his hand and unleashed a majestic palm energy.
However, Chu Kuangren's tune suddenly increased in intensity, and an unparalleled guqin music Daoist Rhyme that seemed to carry a thousand kilometers of mountains and rivers erupted!
"Fifth Movement of the Eight Celestial Demonic Chords, Engulfing Qi!"
The majestic guqin music erupted and shook the heavens and earth.
The First Prefect's palm energy was instantly shattered!
The First Prefect himself was forced back by the waves of guqin music. Its power was so powerful that his expression changed slightly.
"What a terrifying guqin music."
The First Prefect's expression turned serious as the spiritual power within his body surged and formed an extremely sturdy spiritual barrier around him!
The barrier resisted the guqin music's attack. Then, the First Prefect raised his palm to the sky and gathered the spiritual qi of the heavens and earth into his palm, forming a huge spiritual qi vortex that was hundreds of meters in diameter.
"Spiritual Accumulation Strike!"
The First Prefect hurled out the spiritual qi vortex in his hand.
The vortex contained a horrifying power that could destroy the world. Before the palm qi even reached him, Chu Kuangren could already feel an immense pressure.
"Sixth Movement of the Eight Celestial Demonic Chords, Raging Waves Crashing Shore!" Chu Kuangren let out a low roar and guqin music filled the air. The void let out a tsunami-like sound, and under the guqin music, the void rumbled and trembled.
The guqin music and the palm qi collided with each other, and a terrifying explosion swept out with a terrifying shockwave. The clouds within a thousand-kilometer radius tumbled and shattered, and even the Sages could not help but take a few steps back.
Pfft …
At that moment, Chu Kuangren could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
