Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws-Novel

Chapter 459: Rescindment Rune, Besieged By Tormented Souls, A Daoist Of An Ancient Orthodoxy

Somewhere in the Ancient Battlefield.

Chu Kuangren brought White-Robed General into a cave.

Along their way there, they encountered quite a number of tormented souls. All of them were sent by Daoist Sha and Giant Tormented Sage Ruler to pursue them.

However, Chu Kuangren had managed to deal with all of them.

“I think we need to think of a way to remove this bind that’s on you.”

Chu Kuangren glanced at White-Robed General and said.

The ferocious qi on his body was bound to the Ancient Battlefield, like a sort of invisible padlock, binding him to the Ancient Battlefield forever.

If they want to leave, they must first get rid of this bind on White-Robed General.

“The Ancient Battlefield’s bind has been around for eons, and no one has been able to break free of it. Why don’t you leave without me?”

White-Robed General remarked.

He did not want to be a burden to Chu Kuangren and Lan Yu.

“We’ve come so far to get you. We can’t just leave without you. Was it not your wish to see your and the Princess’s descendants?”

Upon hearing this, a glimmer of hope lit up in White-Robed General’s eyes. However, he let out a bitter smile a moment later. “I do, but there’s not much that I can do about it. Even if I manage to get out of the Ancient Battlefield, my body has sustained a great deal of damage. Considering the ferocious qis won’t stop leaking out of my body, I don’t think I have much longer to live.”

“We’ll figure that out once we get you out of here.”

Chu Kuangren said calmly. Problems had to be solved one at a time. For him, the priority now was to remove the Ancient Battlefield’s bind from White-Robed General.

He kept thinking. The Ancient Battlefield’s Core Area was formed from the thousands of years of countless Sages battling inside a mega formation. This land’s earth qi was very unique, and it most probably was related to that aforementioned mega formation.

“Hmm, a formation... I wonder if this rune can help.”

Chu Kuangren mumbled a few chants and activated his spiritual thought. Spiritual power from all around him began to amass frenziedly, forming a mystical rune at the heart of his palm.

A strange energy wave was generated.

He then slammed the rune onto White-Robed General’s body.

“Abolishment Rune!”

That was a Sage-grade rune recorded in the Elysian Emperor Scripture. Its effect was to nullify any negative effects gained from outer sources.

This rune was profound beyond comprehension, but it was hard to tell the exact extent of its effects.

Chu Kuangren himself did not know where exactly this rune was best used. However, in the face of the White-Robed General’s current situation, he could only blindly give it a try.

In a short while.

The White-Robed General suddenly felt a quiver rippling through his body. “I can feel that the effect of the Ancient Battlefield’s bind on me is dwindling.”

“Oh, so it worked!”

Chu Kuangren’s eyes lit up.

As such, he lifted his arm and formulated another Rescindment Rune.

Soon, White-Robed General sensed the Ancient Battlefield’s entrapment on him had gradually diminished to none. His body felt inexplicably free.

By the time White-Robed General was completely freed from the bind, Daoist Sha and Giant Tormented Sage Ruler had long surrounded them outside the cave.

After all, this was the Ancient Battlefield’s Core Area, a territory of tormented souls. As long as they put in some effort in their search, it would not be hard for them to track down Chu Kuangren.

“For having the audacity to steal the Innate Ferocious Altar, I’ll show you what you get!”

Daoist Sha stared deep into the cave with a cold glint in his eyes.

Inside the cave.

While helping White-Robed General remove his binding, Chu Kuangren listened to the stories of his past and how the Ancient Battlefield had changed over the years.

It turned out that Daoist Sha had suddenly arrived at the Ancient Battlefield three years ago and conquered the whole Core Area with his immense power. He had submitted both Giant Tormented Sage Ruler and Blood Fury Sage Ruler, ordering them to do his biddings.

Throughout the three years, Daoist Sha kept collecting innate ferocious qi to build the Innate Ferocious Altar. His plan was to utilize it to increase his foundation level.

As one of the Three Kings, the White-Robed General had a tremendous amount of innate ferocious qi in him, but he did not bend the knee to Daoist Sha. Hence, he went on to become his adversary’s top target.

Although White-Robed General depended upon his Sage Ruler cultivation level and narrowly escaped captivity multiple times, he still fell into his enemy’s hands a few months ago.

Then came Chu Kuangren’s heroics in Blood Fury Palace.

“Daoist Sha... this name sounds pretty familiar.”

Chu Kuangren stroked his chin and said.

“Master, Daoist Sha is the Nine Heavens sky-pride who is ranked sixth on the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard.” Just then, Lan Yu reminded him from his side.

They had been to Divine Predictor Pavillion and seen the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard. They may not have memorized those names, but the name still rubbed off some familiarity.

“No wonder he’s able to conquer the entire Ancient Battlefield. He’s an elite sky-pride from the Nine Heavens!” Chu Kuangren muttered.

His interest was suddenly piqued, and he looked outside the cave with anticipation. “It’s the first time that I’m facing off against someone from the Nine Heavens. I wonder how strong this person is.”

“He’s very strong. A normal Sage Ruler is no match for him.”

White-Robed General added with a solemn look, “With the reinforcements from Giant Tormented Sage Ruler and the army of tormented souls, this battle is not in our favor.”

He rose to his feet and looked toward the direction of the cavern entrance. He could already feel the immense pressure from the tormented souls that had gathered outside.

“Do you guys have any weapons?” White-Robed General inquired. Besides that filthy mask, his other belongings had already been taken from him. That included the weapons that he used to fight with in the past.

“If I remember correctly, you’re good with pikes? Well, Blood Fury Sage Ruler dropped one of those after I killed him.” Chu Kuangren then took out Blood Fury Sage Ruler’s scarlet long pike. It was a top-notch Sage Ruler Weapon.

“Many thanks.” White-Robed General took over the long pike. The moment he gripped the pike, a familiar coldness and ferocious qi spread across his body.

He may be weaker, but once the pike was in his hand, he returned to that battle-hardened warrior that he used to be — the ruthless White-Robed General feared by many!

“Lan Yu, look at him.”

Chu Kuangren said to Lan Yu.

No matter how valiant White-Robed General may appear to be, he still could not hide the fact that he was heavily wounded. His only hope was that he could survive this battle.

The three of them walked towards the cave opening.

Welcoming them outside was a ubiquitous Tormented Army.

Their leader was a black-armored man, whose pitch-black eyes were seeping with a cold murderous intent as they glared at Chu Kuangren.

Chu Kuangren stared back at his opponent. His Eye of Revelation had already activated.

“Daoist Sha, hails from the Sha Tribe, an ancient orthodoxy of the Nine Heavens. His physique is the Infallible Tormented Physique, cultivates the Innate Ferocious Emperor Scripture, has a cultivation level of Supreme Honorable...”

Chu Kuangren was a little surprised. He did not expect his opponent to have the Infallible Tormented Physique and cultivate an Emperor Scripture related to ferocious qi. No wonder he was able to increase his foundation level by absorbing innate ferocious qi.

“Bloody thief, hand out the Innate Ferocious Altar, and I will shorten your pain by giving you a quick death,” Daoist Sha demanded in a harsh voice.

However, what greeted him was thousands of runic swords cast by Chu Kuangren!

The runic swords rushed out in a cascade, wreaking havoc throughout the entire place. Even Sage-level tormented souls were not able to endure this sheer power.

Hundreds to thousands of tormented souls from the Tormented Army were pulverized by these thousands of runic swords.

This sheer power shocked every tormented soul.

“No wonder Blood Fury Sage Ruler died in his hands.”

“This guy’s combat strength is by no means weaker than a Sage Ruler!”

The expressions of Giant Tormented Sage Ruler and the others looked extremely grim. This was especially so for Giant Tormented Sage Ruler, who recognized Chu Kuangren the moment he laid eyes on him.

This person had once come to the Ancient Battlefield a few years ago. At that time, this person was not capable of blocking off one thrust from his finger.

Now, he was capable of killing Sage Rulers!

This stunning development speed wrought utter terror on him.

“Go,” Chu Kuangren said composedly.

He took a step forward, and countless runic swords shuttled rapidly to and from around him. Every tormented soul who neared him was annihilated on the spot!

White-Robed General and Lan Yu followed closely behind.

Lan Yu straight away took out the Black Mantle and blocked off all the tormented souls’ attacks, enabling Chu Kuangren to rip open a route for them upfront with his runic swords.
