Chu Kuangren and the two forefathers soon returned to the Black Heaven Sect.
Once the two forefathers returned, they immediately went back to their cottage in the depths of the Black Heaven Sect as if they did not care about the sect's affairs.
They were more than happy to leave everything to Chu Kuangren.
"It's great that I'm retired. Why don't I just work for a few years and find an excuse to retire as well?" Chu Kuangren thought to himself.
On the surface, the sage orthodoxies' Sect Leaders usually retired after ascension, so it seemed like his own retirement was not far away.
It was just ascension after all. It was not that difficult.
As Chu Kuangren thought about it, he arrived at the Longevity Hall.
"Greetings, Sect Leader."
Elder Ruyan bowed respectfully.
"Yo, Elder Ruyan seems to be in a good mood."
Chu Kuangren saw the smile on Elder Ruyan's face.
"Elder Ruyan has been in a good mood for the past few days. Those who don't know better would think that she has found her Mr. Right."
One of the elders beside her laughed.
Chu Kuangren was quite surprised too. Was the thousand-year-old virgin Ruyan about to have sex?!
"Screw you, Sect Leader. These few days, the Daoist School of Dedication and the Thunder Falcon Tribe have sent over their soulstones. However, some of them have used some treasures as collateral. This is the bill." Elder Ruyan rolled her eyes before she took out a scroll and handed it to Chu Kuangren.
Chu Kuangren took it and looked at it. "Hmm, it's not bad. I'll leave this matter to you. Just do as you see fit."
"Alright, alright."
"I'll be in closed-door meditation for a few days to prepare to ascend to the Honorable Supreme Realm. Don't disturb me if there's nothing important."
"Huh? Sect Leader, you're preparing to ascend to the Honorable Supreme Realm? "
"Yes."
Chu Kuangren nodded and sighed. "The other sage orthodoxies' Sect Leaders are all Honorable Supremes, but I'm only an Honorable. If I don't break through to the Honorable Supreme Realm soon, I'll become a laughing stock."
The elders could not help but sweat when they heard him say that.
'Sect Leader, can we stop joking? '
'You're an Honorable, but you've killed many Sages. Who in this world would dare to treat you as an ordinary Honorable? '
'Then wouldn't killing an Honorable Supreme be child's play for you? '
"I can't take it anymore. I need to ascend to the Honorable Supreme Realm as soon as possible so I can retire after ascension," Chu Kuangren said.
The elders were getting anxious.
"Don't, don't. Sect Leader, we're not in a hurry to transcend the tribulation."
"I think it's good that you continue to be the Sect Leader."
"That's right. It's only been a few years and he's already in such a hurry to retire. The shortest tenure of the other Sect Leaders was also a few hundred years."
They were more than happy to see Chu Kuangren become the Sect Leader.
He had only been the Sect Leader for slightly more than a year, but he had already raised the Black Heaven Sect's foundation and strength by more than a level.
Everything else aside, just the Spirit Stones won from this championship alone was enough to cover the Black Heaven Sect's expenses for decades.
In a few more years, the Black Heaven Sect would definitely be able to take off!
"You old fellows, it seems like you can't wait for me to sit in the position of Sect Master until the end."
"Don't worry, I won't retire so easily until there's no suitable successor," Chu Kuangren said helplessly.
It seemed that he still had a long way to go before he retired.
At the very least, he would have to wait for Nangong Huang and the others to grow to the point where they could shoulder the responsibility. No matter what, it would take at least a few decades or a century.
After discussing with Elder Ruyan and the others for a while, Chu Kuangren then returned to the Towering Heaven Palace to go into closed-door meditation.
Before he went into closed-door meditation, he first took out the few items that he had obtained from the unnamed island. Aside from the Headless Lady's head, there was also the white-haired man's corpse, a bronze mirror, and a wooden box.
The bronze mirror was in a damaged state. It was originally an Emperor Weapon, but now, it could not even unleash the power of a Boundary Emperor Weapon.
"This must be the Emperor Weapon mentioned in the diary, the Green Primordial Mirror. It was destroyed by the Headless Lady." Chu Kuangren looked at the cracked bronze mirror in his hand and could not help but be shocked.
This was an Emperor Weapon, after all. To be able to destroy an Emperor Weapon to such an extent, the Headless Lady's strength was just too terrifying.
Moreover, her head had been chopped off, so she could not unleash her full strength. It was hard to imagine how terrifying the Headless Lady was when she was alive. An Emperor was indeed earth-shattering.
After keeping the Green Primordial Mirror, Chu Kuangren did not immediately refine it.
Instead, he looked at the wooden box.
When he was on the unnamed island, he was afraid that the Headless Lady would come looking for him, so he was in a hurry to leave.
He opened the wooden box.
Inside, there was a … scroll!
"Hmm, a scroll."
Chu Kuangren's eyes lit up because the scroll in front of him was exactly the same as the one he found in the Sky Emperor Palace.
He opened the scroll and saw that there was also an Emperor Technique inside.
"My luck is pretty good. I just found out about the existence of the Nine Major Scrolls from the Sky Emperor Palace, and now I've obtained one of them. I wonder what kind of Emperor Technique this is," Chu Kuangren thought.
He did not immediately study it. Instead, he put it away.
"Let's wait until I become an Honorable Supreme first."
Chu Kuangren thought.
He took out some medicinal pills, which were prepared for his breakthrough. Besides that, he also had the Sage-grade medicine he obtained from the unnamed island. Coupled with the few Sage corpses in the Avarice dimension, he should be able to break through this time no matter how solid his foundation was.
Even if it was not enough, he still had a Boundary Emperor's corpse. When he refined it, he would probably be able to ascend in one go.
Time passed, and soon, three days had passed.
On this day, a powerful aura erupted from the Towering Heaven Palace that Chu Kuangren was in, and it quickly spread throughout the entire Black Heaven Sect.
The Black Heaven Sect's Sword Mountain gently trembled and let out a sword cry.
Deep within the Black Heaven Sect, the Black Heaven Sect's Second Forefather and the others sensed it.
"This little guy has broken through to become an Honorable Supreme."
"Hah, he'll probably ascend to become a Sage soon. When that time comes, we can't keep calling him little guy."
"Not bad."
The Sages were relieved.
Meanwhile, inside the Towering Heaven Palace.
After Chu Kuangren had successfully broken through to become an Honorable Supreme, he then looked at the white-robed man's corpse with a thoughtful look.
"Looks like I won't need this Boundary Emperor's body for now. I'll keep it and use it when I break through to become a Sage."
Chu Kuangren thought to himself.
The blood and flesh essences that could be refined from a Boundary Emperor's body were definitely terrifying. It could help him to form a powerful Sage's foundation, but it was still a long way from becoming a Supreme Sage's foundation.
Therefore, before that, Chu Kuangren had to accumulate as many resources as he could so that he could form a Supreme Sage's foundation in one go.
"It's a pity that the Gluttonous Devouring Technique is only a Sage Ruler Technique, so it can't refine an Emperor's body. Otherwise, if I refined that lady's head, I might really be able to form a Supreme Sage's foundation in one go."
Chu Kuangren murmured.
Then, he kept the white-haired man's corpse into his Yin and Yang Ring.
Then, he took out two halberds.
One was black while the other was silver. They were the Heaven's Halberd and the Trident Halberd that he obtained from the Scaled Tribe's Young Master.
When the two halberds stood side by side, the aura they emitted was somewhat similar, as if they were from the same origin.
"Could this Boundary Emperor Weapon of the Lou Kingdom be from the Scaled Tribe?" Chu Kuangren pondered.
After that, he studied them for a while and did not find anything special about them, so he threw the two halberds back into his Yin and Yang Ring.
Finally, he began to study the Emperor Technique recorded on the scroll.
