Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

“Only one can lead the sky-prides, Kuangren of the Black Heaven it shall be.”

In one of the mountain ranges outside the Black Heaven Sect’s Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation, a young man murmured with a hint of disdain in his eyes. “What a joke. How is a legendary tale about a person who has been crippled for three years still around? Are these people stupid?”

The young man snorted coldly with great dissatisfaction on his face.

If anyone familiar with Firmament Star’s current situation were here, they would undoubtedly recognize him. That was because the young man was a top-notch sky-pride, ranked twenty-fifth on the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard.

He was also a Daoist of the Parchprime Palace, currently one of the best orthodoxies on the Firmament Star… Liu Yiqing.

The Parchprime Palace was part of the unknown lands three years ago. However, Liu Yiqing was not an empyrean walker during that time, not because he was not strong enough, but because he was in closed-door meditation.

It was only until three years ago, after the battle at Black Heaven Sect that he came into the world. It was the same time as when the Parchprime Palace and other unknown lands appeared.

Only then did Liu Yiqing start to appear in public and step into the scene of sky-prides. He was just getting started at that time.

His strength was remarkable. Over the past three years, he had continuously defeated numerous sky-prides all over the world, landing himself the twenty-fifth ranking on the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard.

Besides the top-notch sky-prides from the Nine Heavens, his strength could be considered the best among the younger generation.

Even so, he was not happy with his achievements.

It was all because of one person.

A man disappeared after he was crippled three years ago.

That man was Chu Kuangren!

When Liu Yiqing first entered the world, his impressive battle records had very quickly gained quite some fame. However, his thunder was always stolen by the mere mention of Chu Kuangren’s name.

No matter who or what they were previously talking about, every sky-pride would instantly gravitate towards the mere mention of Chu Kuangren’s name. They would immediately recall the glorious and legendary achievements he had accomplished.

It was as if the name itself contained a type of magic that could draw anyone’s attention.

As a prideful and arrogant person, Liu Yiqing originally thought he would gain a lot of fame when he appeared. He even thought that he could eventually fight for a chance to become an Emperor.

However, his fame was overshadowed by one person’s name instead.

More importantly, that person was already crippled with the Heavenly Punishment Seal three years ago and became an ordinary person. After that, there had been no news about that person for three years too.

Liu Yiqing was very dissatisfied with the strong comparison made between him and that man.

Just a few days ago, even his beloved goddess Feng Yaorao looked obsessed when Chu Kuangren was brought up in conversation. That was his final straw.

He swore that he would personally test Chu Kuangren’s strength one day.

“Let’s see whether this Chu Kuangren is as powerful as the rumors say, seeing that the world has not forgotten him yet!”

Liu Yiqing looked towards the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation and said.

“Rumor has it that the Heavenly Punishment Seal has made him no different than an ordinary person.” Beside Liu Yiqing, another young man uttered.

That person was standing under the shade of a tree silently.

A pale face revealed when the sun rays shone upon him as he walked out. That person was also a sky-pride whose name was listed on the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard.

He was Yin Li, ranked twenty-fourth on the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard!

He was neither an empyrean walker nor a sky-pride from the Nine Heavens. In fact, he was one of the ordinary sky-prides who had gotten stronger with the help of various Opportunities of Fortune he had obtained throughout these three years.

That person was displeased with Chu Kuangren, too, for reasons similar to Liu Yiqing.

Today, the two of them joined forces and arrived here to test Chu Kuangren.

“They’re here.”

Liu Yiqing uttered lightly.

Two figures were slowly walking on a path beneath the mountain range. Both of them were stunning beauties.

One was dressed in red while the other was dressed in blue.

“Jun Yi and Jin Feiyan, ranked fifty-sixth and fifty-seventh on the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard. They’re both Daoists from the Black Heaven Sect.”

“As long as we follow them, we can surely enter the Black Heaven Sect.”

Of course, both Liu Yiqing and Yin Li would never hastily enter the Black Heaven Sect’s territory. After all, the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation was not set up just for show.

It was a formation technique that even a Sage Ruler could not breakthrough. Based on their current strength, rushing in was akin to seeking instant death.

Hence, they had concocted a plan beforehand.

That was to have someone from the Black Heaven Sect lead them in!

They had gotten wind that Jin Feiyan and Jun Yi were inseparable. They traveled together in the outside world and would return to the Black Heaven Sect every six months.

These few days just happened to be the time when both of them would return.

“Get ready to move.”

Liu Yiqing said.

Yin Li nodded. With a wave of his sleeve, a black bundle of smoke appeared, immediately enveloping and concealing them within the void.

Such a concealment technique was extremely advanced, and it was one of the Opportunities of Fortune that Yin Li obtained. Even a Sage Ruler might not be able to spot them, let alone Jun Yi and Jin Feiyan.

Both of them followed closely behind the two ladies as they entered the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation.

After walking into the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation, Jun Yi took out a jade sword. Both ladies then followed the sword as it guided them on the path towards the Black Heaven Sect.

On the way, they passed by one formation technique after another, which intertwined with each other in a very complicated manner. It was the main contributing factor as to why the formation technique was impossible to defend against.

Without the guidance from the jade sword, even a Sage Ruler would not be able to escape easily should he happen to take a wrong turn or step.

The formation was just too terrifying.

Liu Yiqing and Yin Li followed closely behind the two ladies, afraid they would lose sight of them if they put too much distance between them.

“Roar…”

At this time, a roar was heard from the skies

A ferocious Cloud Dragon was soaring among the clouds.

Both Liu Yiqing and Yin Li, who were hiding in the void, trembled with fear upon seeing the Cloud Dragon. A look of horror flashed across their eyes.

‘What kind of monster is that?’

‘What the f*ck is going on with this formation technique?!’

“Hi…”

Jin Feiyan happily waved and greeted it. She had clearly gotten used to the Cloud Dragon’s presence.

Beside her, Jun Yi shook her head helplessly. “This dragon is only a part of the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation. It doesn’t even have a mind of its own. What’s the point of greeting it?”

“I’m happy to be back. That’s all.”

Jin Feiyan smiled.

Both Liu Yiqing and Yin Li breathed a sigh of relief as they hid inside the void.

‘No mind of its own?’

‘It’s good that it’s not sentient. If it really does have a mind of its own, what are we supposed to do once it notices us?’

At that moment, they started to regret it.

They would not even trespass their way in here if they knew this in the first place. After all, there was a reason the Black Heaven Sect’s mega formation was named the eleventh Forbidden Area.

Soon, both Jun Yi and Jin Feiyan had arrived at the Black Heaven Sect’s mountain entrance.

Once they greeted Elder Ruyan and the others, both of them went to visit the Heavenly Towering Palace as they usually do every time they were home.

Along the way, both Liu Yiqing and Yin Li observed everything that was going inside the Black Heaven Sect.

Although the Black Heaven Sect had invested a lot of resources into their disciples, to improve everyone’s strength, only a few Daoists took them seriously.

“Jun Yi, how long more do you think our Sect Leader will take to come out from his closed-door meditation?”

Jin Feiyan casually asked while they were on their way to the Heavenly Towering Palace.

Both Liu Yiqing and Yin Li immediately pricked their ears up the moment they heard that. They knew that the Sect Leader that Jin Feiyan was talking about was Chu Kuangren.

However, what surprised them was the fact that Chu Kuangren was in closed-door meditation. Rumor had it that Chu Kuangren had the Heavenly Punishment Seal on him and had lost his cultivation.

‘Is he trying to unlock the Heavenly Punishment Seal?’

‘Give me a break.’

How could someone below a Sage’s level possibly break free from a seal that even the Emperors of Old could not unlock?

Both of them listened attentively to Jin Feiyan and Jun Yi’s conversation.

“I have no idea, but this is the longest our Sect Leader has ever been in closed-door meditation. It seems like the Heavenly Punishment Seal is extremely difficult to deal with.”

“Oh, even the heavens are not in favor of our Sect Leader’s talent.”

Both of them continued to chat until they arrived at the Heavenly Towering Palace. Having long known that they were coming back, Lan Yu, Gu Linglong, and Lil Bing went up to welcome both of them.

However, at this moment, a fireball suddenly burst in the skies. The Godly Phoenix soared into the air and stared coldly behind Jun Yi and Jin Feiyan. “Who and where did you guys come from?! How dare you sneak into a place like this? Show yourselves!”
