“Everyone, allow me to play you a song!”
Chu Kuangren said nonchalantly as he positioned the guqin before his chest.
The Sages' eyes widened upon seeing Chu Kuangren in this battle form.
“What?! He's still okay?!”
“d.a.m.n it, can this b*stard die?!”
“Guqin? Does he actually know guqin Dao?”
The Sages were dumbfounded at how Chu Kuangren had managed to emerge unscathed after their attacks. They were also skeptical if Chu Kuangren was truly proficient in guqin Dao.
“I bet he's just pretending. Let's continue to attack!”
The Third Prefect grunted.
The moment Chu Kuangren plucked the guqin with one finger, a wave of magnificent guqin Daoist Rhymes emanated around him!
Suddenly, the Third Prefect and the other Sages could not help but stiffen up.
“Eight Celestial Demonic Chords, First Movement, Boundless Overworld.”
When Chu Kuangren began to pluck the guqin with all ten fingers, guqin music echoed throughout the realm along with a boundless Daoist Rhyme.
The Third Prefect then felt that his spirit was being crushed as if the realm was exerting enormous pressure on him.
This guqin music had suppressed their Daoist Rhymes!
Compared to the power of Boundless Overworld, their Daoist Rhymes were nothing!
Everyone was shocked.
It was their first time witnessing such a form of guqin Daoist Rhymes.
“This is some terrifying guqin music. Who would've thought he knew such a trick?”
“This isn't good. His guqin music seems to transform our surroundings into his personal boundary and our Daoist Rhymes will be suppressed.”
“Quickly interrupt him!”
The Sages intended to attack Chu Kuangren.
However, the guqin music abruptly changed its melody, transitioning into a piece of guqin music with terrifying Daoist Rhymes that resembled the chaos of a violent thunderstorm!
“Eight Celestial Demonic Chords, Second Movement, Endless Torrential Gale!”
The melody of Chu Kuangren's guqin music began to transform into daggers and swords that rained upon his opponents like a thunderstorm!
The Sages' Daoist Rhymes were already severely restricted, so now that they were faced with Chu Kuangren's torrential daggers and sword attack, they were petrified.
“d.a.m.n it!” Relying on his Sage armor, the Third Prefect tanked all of Chu Kuangren's attack and charged furiously at Chu Kuangren.
When the Third Prefect was finally near, he channeled all of his spiritual energies into conjuring an enormous white palm and attempted to interrupt Chu Kuangren's guqin music.
However, Chu Kuangren immediately pulled a string and infused his vast spiritual energies and Daoist Rhymes into his music. “Eight Celestial Demonic Chords, Third Movement, Profound Carillon Resonance!”
With a loud toll, a deafening tune rang out and suddenly, majestic musical sound waves exploded. A terrifying force instantly materialized and it crushed the white hand before landing on the Third Prefect.
An explosion erupted and when faced with these terrifying musical sound waves, the Third Prefect was blasted off the battlefield. Despite having his Sage armor as protection, the energy had exerted an enormous force onto his internal organs!
Spit…
Could not take it any longer, the Third Prefect spat a mouthful of fresh blood!
“What terrifying guqin music!”
A distance away, a white-haired elder was utterly dumbfounded.
The elder was none other than the Heaven Chord Sage.
The Heaven Chord Sect was an orthodoxy that was most renowned for its offensive musical techniques, and this Sage was amongst the most skillful guqin players of this generation.
However, after witnessing Chu Kuangren's performance of the Eight Celestial Demonic Chord, he realized that Chu Kuangren's abilities were way superior to his!
His guqin music was utterly frightening!
Such guqin music should not exist in this realm!
After blasting the Third Prefect away, Chu Kuangren's music once again changed its tune. This time, the Sages could hear the approaching sound of a thousand cavalries galloping to their location as if they were placed in the middle of a terrifying warzone!
“Eight Celestial Demonic Chords, Fourth Movement, a.s.saulting Convergence!”
Gallop gallop gallop…
Guqin music echoed throughout the realm, and the incessant galloping sound of the cavalry army went on.
As its terrifying Daoist Rhymes converged onto the Sages, they could feel their physical body being tormented by the guqin music.
The guqin music then transformed into sharp daggers that tormented the entire realm. Having been heavily injured, Third Forefather Linghu could no longer defend himself and the daggers cut through his head. Not even his Sage spirit could escape.
“Our Sage!”
The Linghu Clan Head wailed in pain as he witnessed that scene. There were only two Sages in his family, so the death of either of them represented an insurmountable loss.
“Six Compounded Palms!”
“Dazzling Sun Lightning!”
The Sages began to unleash their attacks on Chu Kuangren.
However, their attacks were instantly disintegrated before they could even get close to Chu Kuangren. There was no way they could harm Chu Kuangren. Instead, they were the ones who were sustaining injuries from Chu Kuangren's incessant attacks. Even their Sage bodies could not hold on much longer.
“Chu Kuangren, stop it!”
“There's always room for discussions!”
The Sages said hastily.
However, Chu Kuangren ignored their pleas and continued to pluck his guqin. With that, he sent out the fourth wave of guqin music.
Spiritual energies within a thousand-kilometer radius were disrupted by his guqin music, and chaos let loose.
The spectators' hearts quivered as they watched the scene.
“His abilities are so scary. All he needs is his guqin music to dominate six Sages.”
“What guqin music is that?!”
The most shocked amongst them were the cultivators from the Heaven Chord Sect.
Having studied the art of musical a.s.sa.s.sinations, they knew more than others just how deadly Chu Kuangren's guqin music was.
“Looks like Chu Kuangren didn't even reveal half his strength during that guqin showoff on the street that day.”
Lady Snowflake looked at Chu Kuangren and said with a shudder.
Not even the most brilliant musical techniques in the Heaven Chord Sect were worth mentioning in the face of Chu Kuangren's Eight Demonic Celestial Chords.
Boom!
At that moment, a burst of frightening Daoist Rhymes exploded from one of the floating islands and a palm strength came cras.h.i.+ng onto the battlefield!
The palm strength was so strong that a deafening sound reverberated throughout the void.
Its target was none other than… Chu Kuangren!
“Oh, another Sage!” Chu Kuangren frowned and immediately played the Third Movement of Eight Celestial Demonic Chord, the Profound Carillon Resonance.
His guqin music clashed directly into the palm technique, sending out shockwaves that were as destructive as a storm. All of the surrounding structures were wrecked.
Even the Sages were blasted out the battlefield.
Chu Kuangren was also forced to retreat several meters.
Since the sudden incoming attack had interrupted his guqin music, the Sages breathed a sigh of relief. They felt as if they had escaped from certain deaths.
They all looked at the source of the palm qi.
A white-haired elder dressed in white long robes was seen emerging from one of the islands.
The elder took one step, which crossed hundreds of meters, and arrived before the crowd. He looked intently at Chu Kuangren.
“What's your intention for creating so much chaos in my city?”
“To tear this city down,” said Chu Kuangren calmly.
The elder's face sank. “I'm sure you have your reasons. Do you mind elaborating?”
“Oh, looks like you're not in the loop.”
Chu Kuangren looked at the elder with surprise.
Then, Chu Kuangren summarized everything to the elder, from the collusion between the First City and Sky Heaven Palace to them targeting Black Heaven Sect.
The elder was stunned.
He gave Chu Kuangren a strange look.
Chu Kuangren was keen on tearing the entire First City down just for a few disciples. Where did this lunatic come from?!
The elder also gave the Third Prefect a good stare. “I've placed this city under your care and now you've created such a mess. Hmph, when this incident is over, we shall have a good talk.”
“It's my fault for mismanaging this city. I'm sorry for disturbing you, my Lord.”
The elder was the First City's Lord, and also the first ranking member of the Thirteen Prefects!
He was in a closed-door meditating before Chu Kuangren created a huge commotion outside his residence. The First Prefect had no choice but to exit his meditation prematurely.
Otherwise, the First City would probably be reduced to smithereens.
