News of Xiao Jingchen and Daoist Sha challenging Chu Kuangren had spread throughout the entire Firmament Star, and every cultivator was paying close attention to this matter.
Everyone was also waiting for Chu Kuangren's response.
However, for three consecutive days, even after the time limit for the battle had passed, there was still no response from Chu Kuangren, let alone any sign of him.
All the great ones were looking for Chu Kuangren.
Their spiritual thoughts scanned the entire Firmament Star but to no avail.
With Chu Kuangren's abilities, it was too easy for him to hide. As long as he willed it, no one could find him.
Hide?!
This statement caused all the cultivators to be extremely shocked.
Chu Kuangren knew how to hide?!
Oh god.
What the hell? That was Chu Kuangren, the number one lunatic in history. How could a lunatic like him know how to hide?
Most of them believed that he was delayed by something.
However, the Heavenly Golden Palace disciples did not think so. To them, Chu Kuangren was afraid of Xiao Jingchen and did not dare to show up.
"Chu Kuangren? That's all he's got!"
"Hah, he can only hide in his shell in front of the Young Master."
Chu Kuangren was terrifying.
This was something that everyone acknowledged.
Even the people from the Heavenly Golden Palace knew about it. That was also the reason why they were so frustrated by Chu Kuangren.
Now, they finally had a chance to turn the tables.
It did not matter why Chu Kuangren did not show up. What was important was that Xiao Jingchen had challenged Chu Kuangren, and he did not show up. That was enough for them to show off.
Under the Heavenly Golden Palace's propaganda, Chu Kuangren became a coward who did not dare to show up because he was afraid of Xiao Jingchen. His reputation as a madman was ruined.
It was not just the Heavenly Golden Palace. The disciples of Ethereal Rapture, Acheron Manor, Sacred Palace of Death, and the Bottomless Chasm who had a grudge against Chu Kuangren were also using this opportunity to belittle Chu Kuangren and ruin his reputation.
"What Chu Kuangren? He's just a coward who doesn't even dare to accept a challenge. It seems like he's really fallen."
"That's right. It's the era of Xiao Jingchen and the others now."
"Number one on the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard? What a joke. "
The few orthodoxies' disciples continued to slander Chu Kuangren.
At first, there were some who didn't believe it.
However, the slanderous voices grew louder and louder. Chu Kuangren did not appear at all, nor did he respond.
It was as if he had really gone into hiding, as the others had said.
As time passed, those who believed in Chu Kuangren gradually wavered. Could it be that Chu Kuangren was truly afraid?
It was no wonder.
After all, Xiao Jingchen's Sage Ascension Tribulation was earth-shattering, and Chu Kuangren himself had been struck by the Heavenly Punishment Seal. It was very likely that he would not be a match for Xiao Jingchen.
It made sense that the other party did not dare to fight.
As time went by, Chu Kuangren seemed to have solidified his reputation as a coward.
"The title of Kuangren is extremely disappointing."
The Heavenly Golden Palace's Xiao Jingchen spread the news that Chu Kuangren had failed to keep his appointment, causing his reputation to rise once again.
Compared to Xiao Jingchen, Daoist Sha's reaction was much more intense.
He immediately declared that if Chu Kuangren did not show up, he would kill his way into the Black Heaven Sect and slaughter the entire sect!
Two days after the announcement, there was still no response.
"Hmph!"
"Chu Kuangren, if that's the case, then don't blame me for this!"
Inside the Ancient Battlefield.
Daoist Sha snorted and leaped into the sky.
Not long after, he appeared outside the Black Heaven Sect's great formation.
Many people in the Firmament Star had noticed his actions. They knew that he was here to cause trouble for the Black Heaven Sect today.
"This Daoist Sha really is a man of his word. He said he would destroy the Black Heaven Sect, and he did it just like that. I wonder if he can break the formation?"
"I don't think so."
"Hmm, this formation is not that easy to break."
The crowd discussed and paid attention to Daoist Sha.
At that moment, Daoist Sha was standing outside the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation with ferocious qi swirling around his body. He looked like a demon that had just walked out of a Shura battlefield.
"You think you can stop me with a mere formation? What a joke! "
Daoist Sha dashed into the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation.
The Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation blocked everyone's spiritual thoughts, so they could barely sense the powerful energy fluctuations coming from within.
After a day and a night.
Daoist Sha walked out of the great formation with a gloomy expression. His aura was weak, and his hair was messy. Although he did not suffer any obvious injuries, he still looked like a mess.
Behind him, the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation was still operating.
Evidently, he had failed to break the formation.
The crowd fell silent.
Although they were surprised by the result, they felt that it was reasonable. After all, this great formation had killed countless enemies three years ago. It was known as the number one formation in Firmament Star!
Even a Sage Ruler would not dare to enter it.
Daoist Sha's failure did not shock them too much.
"D * mn it. I can't believe that the Black Heaven Sect has such a formation. Countless formations are interconnected and impossible to defend against. And that Cloud Dragon's combat strength is on par with mine. If I didn't use the Innate Ferocious Bell at the end, I wouldn't have been able to walk out of this formation unscathed …"
Daoist Sha turned to look at the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation behind him with a complicated look in his eyes. "Even in the Nine Heavens, it's rare to see a formation like this. Where did Chu Kuangren get it from?"
"D * mn it! This formation is too difficult to break. I'll have to think of another way. "
News of Daoist Sha's failure to break the formation had many people laughing in their hearts. They felt that Daoist Sha had been slapped in the face.
However, what Daoist Sha did next shocked everyone even more.
After failing to break the formation, Daoist Sha did not give up on his plan to force Chu Kuangren out. Instead, he changed his strategy.
He used his powerful strength to subdue a few orthodoxies and then asked them to find some people for him.
Those people were all Black Heaven Sect disciples!
To be more precise, they were former disciples of the Black Heaven Sect!
Back then, when the Black Heaven Sect was besieged by many forces, no one thought that the Black Heaven Sect could turn the tide. Hence, many disciples left the Black Heaven Sect and joined other forces.
Yet now, Daoist Sha had captured those people.
He had announced.
For every day that Chu Kuangren did not show up, he would kill a thousand people!
Such an insane act shocked every cultivator in the Firmament Star. Just how much hatred did this person have for Chu Kuangren?!
On the first day.
Chu Kuangren did not show up.
In the Ancient Battlefield, a thousand heads fell to the ground!
On the second day.
Chu Kuangren still did not show up.
Daoist Sha burned a thousand people to death.
Far away in the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation, the Black Heaven Sect naturally received the news and was furious at Daoist Sha's actions!
"D * mn it, this Daoist Sha is worse than a beast!"
"No matter what, those people were once disciples of the Black Heaven Sect. Although they have nothing to do with us now, Daoist Sha's actions are undoubtedly a provocation to the Black Heaven Sect and the Sect Leader."
"Elder Ruyan, what should we do!"
Inside the Longevity Hall.
The elders gathered together.
Elder Ruyan took a deep breath and said calmly, "Let's wait and see. Let's wait for the Sect Leader to show up."
One of the elders hesitated. "Those disciples …"
"What disciple?" Elder Ruyan replied with a question.
The elders fell silent.
"They have nothing to do with the Black Heaven Sect anymore. I don't blame them for leaving back then, but at the same time, there's no need for us to put ourselves in danger for them," Elder Ruyan said.
No one blamed her for being ruthless. After all, she did it to protect the Black Heaven Sect.
"Understood."
"Then let's wait for the Sect Leader to show up."
