Chapter 233: The Arrival of A King, The Killer, Chu Batian (I)

This was enough to make Chen Chu hesitate.

In the mythical world, there were multiple cults collectively referred to as the Alliance of Cults, each one led by a king-level figure who proclaimed themselves to be gods. These cults were comprised of powerful traitors from the human race, but not all of them were enemies of humanity.

Only a few of them outright opposed humanity and actively tried to cause trouble. The Blood, Giant, and Shadow Cults had all affiliated with the Purgatory Demon Clan and acted as their lackeys, which was what had earned them the label of the demon cults.

As for the other cults, some differed in ideology, some simply enjoyed the sensation of becoming gods, and the rest existed for other various reasons.

This was some of the information Chen Chu had gained access to after returning to school from Kyrola and having his permissions upgraded. However, that was all of the information about the cults that he had been given; detailed matters, such as the titles of all of the cults, the names of their kings, and their influence in the mythical world, required even higher permissions to access.

After a brief contemplation, Chen Chu turned and dashed further into the depths of the mountains. Considering the invincible will that the other party had hinted at last night, Chen Chu decided to temporarily ignore him and focus on killing some invading Blood Cultists.

He didn’t need to worry about An Fuqing’s safety, as he was certain that Zuo Jing harbored no ill intentions toward her. Sometimes, when Zuo Jing had unintentionally glanced at her, there would be a fleeting gentleness in his eyes.

During those moments, Chen Chu would have almost believed it if told that he was An Fuqing\'s long-lost brother.

Unfortunately, there was no signal, which prevented him from being able to report his whereabouts.

Boom!

In the dense forest, Chen Chu\'s speed exploded, reaching three hundred meters per second and leaving behind a long white air wave.

Cultivators who practiced agility-based arts could achieve instant bursts of speed by eliminating air resistance; conversely, Chen Chu\'s incredible speed was solely due to his overwhelming strength, giving him quite the imposing presence.

As he passed through the forest, trees and grass were sent flying. Even some small trees over ten meters high were broken without any regard, displaying his dominance. The teachers had already come in for support, and if he delayed any longer, he might not get a single kill.

As Chen Chu approached the drop-off point up ahead, another figure was approaching from a different direction.

"Demon cultists at the late stage of the Fifth Realm!" Li Hao glanced at the message that popped up on his wristwatch, his eyes filled with a frenzy of battle will. Compared to over a week ago, his aura was even more powerful now, akin to that of a madman.

Suddenly, Li Hao\'s gaze shifted slightly as he looked down. There, a golden-red light pierced through the wilderness below like a sharp sword.

Boom!

Trees and grass exploded into the air. Chen Chu\'s figure came to a sudden halt ten meters away, the howling wind swirling around him. "Li Hao."

Chen Chu was somewhat surprised; he hadn\'t expected to encounter acquaintances one after another on this trip.

Li Hao was wearing a set of blood-red heavy battle armor that emitted a faint glow, with spikes on every joint and two shoulder guards adorned with angry-looking beast heads. Coupled with the curved beast horns on his shoulders, he looked like a warrior from ancient times.

In addition to that, the pillar he carried on his shoulder was four meters long, thicker than a thigh, and wrapped in dark red dragon patterns, as it also emitted a red light.

Combined with the strong scent of mutated beast blood emanating from him, it seemed that he had grown a lot during this period.

Li Hao said in a deep voice, "Chen Chu, you\'ve also received the signal about the demon cult elites, right? It seems like you\'re planning to enter the mountains to look for those guys?"

"That\'s right."

"Why? Are you also interested in killing them?"

"A little." Chen Chu shook his head. "I suggest you reconsider. These guys are injured, and their cultivation is only at the late stage or peak of the Fifth Heavenly Realm, but that doesn’t mean their combat power is weak.

"They’re seasoned experts of the Sixth Realm. They can cross at least a small realm, even reach the beginning stage of the Sixth. You might be taken down in an instant if you go."

Li Hao was somewhat skeptical. "But aren\'t you just at the Fourth—"

Before he could finish, an overwhelmingly dominant aura emanated from Chen Chu, causing the air to tremble, and an indistinct roar like that of the dragon and elephant reverberated in the air.

Instantly, Li Hao\'s mouth fell open, his face filled with astonishment.

What\'s going on? Wasn\'t this guy just at the beginning stage of the Fourth Heavenly Realm a week ago? How did he suddenly reach the Fifth?!

"This is my confidence." Chen Chu smiled, quite satisfied with Li Hao\'s astonishment. Then, with a thunderous crash, he continued to dash toward the depths of the mountains, leaving behind a trail of wind and air waves.

Watching Chen Chu disappear into the forest with the raging wind, Li Hao couldn\'t help but rub his cheek, wondering if he was hallucinating.

In just a week, his cultivation has advanced by a realm. Did this guy stumble on top-level resources? Something that gave him a breakthrough in his cultivation?

It seemed that their agreed-upon battle would have to be postponed again. After all, with his cultivation being inferior at the moment, he was definitely not this guy\'s match.

Yes, this guy is now a realm above me. Although I\'m powerful, he\'s not weak either.

Thinking this, Li Hao\'s spirit lifted, as he regained some confidence.

***

Soon, Chen Chu entered the middle section of the Yunwu Mountains, where the density of clouds and mist increased, as well as the chances of encountering spatial rifts.

However, ever since awakening his double pupils, he could usually detect them in advance and avoid them from afar, continuing his mad dash for a thousand kilometers to reach a further section of the mountains.

Upon arrival, Chen Chu came to a halt.

Standing at the summit of a mountain peak thousands of meters tall, he looked around at the vast sea of clouds and the looming, indistinct peaks, feeling somewhat lost. How was he supposed to find anyone in such a vast place?

After a moment of contemplation, he suddenly let out a roar like a dragon, his deep voice echoing through the heavens and earth.

At the same time, an aura of the beginning stage of the Fifth Heavenly Realm condensed and then erupted from him, exerting a domineering pressure that formed circular white air waves and fierce winds in his immediate surroundings.

Roar!

Roars of mutated beasts echoed from the mountains below. Chen Chu\'s unabashed release of his aura had essentially provoked those mutated creatures, but so what?

With his aura erupting, Chen Chu shot out along the mountain ridge. When he reached halfway down the mountainside, a twenty-one-meter-long mutated python lunged toward him.

Boom!

With a sweep of his halberd enveloped in golden-red light, the python’s enormous head, larger than a car, instantaneously exploded, splattering flesh and blood in all directions, as its massive body crashed to the ground with a resounding thud.

After condensing the Divine Might Tyrant Body, Chen Chu\'s strength had become even more robust and dominant. A late stage level 4 mutated creature couldn’t even be penetrated by anti-material sniper bullets, but a casual strike of his halberd could instantly shatter it with the true power of his divine might.

He paused, his eyes revealing a hint of regret as he glanced down at the carcass.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

As Chen Chu\'s aura erupted, he was like a beacon, attracting powerful mutated creatures that would occasionally roar and then boldly launch attacks against him. Then, under the Eight Desolations Purgatory Halberd, they exploded into a sky full of flesh and blood.

Chen Chu continued to brazenly emit his aura, intending to bait the demon cultists into actively seeking him out.

Meanwhile, high above the sky, more than a dozen hundred-meter-diameter satellites had already fallen to an altitude of fifty thousand meters, emitting a glow visible even during the day as pulses of radiation signals spread in all directions.

The pulses penetrated through the mist and linked with the hundreds of signal transmitters that had been deployed yesterday, forming a network covering the entire Yunwu Range.

Buzz!

Everyone in the mountain range felt vibrations on their wrists, indicating that the signal was online.

At the same time, the base satellites possessing the demon bone fragments instantly detected the auras of those who encountered mutated beasts or exerted true power while rushing through the mountains.

In the rear military base’s monitoring center, most of the screen was covered by a model of the mountain range obscured by clouds and mist, with black and red dots appearing in the farther sections.

"Report, ten demon cultists detected. The bone fragments’ reaction confirms them to be from the Blood and Giant Cults."

"Quickly lock their positions and notify the nearby squads to encircle them."

"Yes, sir."

Due to the information gap, these demon cultists who had entered the mountains yesterday evening were completely unaware that they had been exposed, and that many martial arts teachers had already surrounded them. Only a small cautious number sensed that something was amiss and concealed their auras.

Due to still being listed as being at the beginning stage of the Fourth Heavenly Realm in the database, Chen Chu didn’t receive the coordinates of the demon cultists on his wristwatch.

However, he suddenly came to a halt.

It was now afternoon, and the towering trees around him intertwined with each other, casting a dim light.
