Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws - Chapter 501

After asking about the Emperor Road, Chu Kuangren inquired further about the Divine Emerald Lamp.

Wu Clan Leader did not try to be secretive about it either as he started to explain to Chu Kuangren about the chronicles of the Divine Emerald Lamp.

"It has been common knowledge since long ago that the Divine Emerald Lamp is in the Wu Clan's possession, so I don't think it's really a secret. However, the truth is that this Emperor Weapon is currently in an incomplete state. It can only be used with the Wu clan's secret technique of using a cultivator's blood essence to fuel it. Hence, the other clans were not too concerned about this Emperor Weapon. It's just that, for some reason, they have recently decided to turn their attention to this Divine Emerald Lamp. They even went as far as bribing our Wu Clan Senior Elder."

Wu Clan Leader appeared a little perplexed as well when he came to this part of the story.

Chu Kuangren, on the other hand, looked deep in thought.

An incomplete Emperor Weapon, one that required one's own blood essence or even life as the cost to activate it. No wonder those people were not interested in it at first.

If it was a completed Emperor Weapon, that would be a whole different story.

"What if they are able to make the Divine Emerald Lamp whole again?" A bright spark flashed past Chu Kuangren's mind.

This could explain why the Zhang clan, the Qian clan, and the other clans had a sudden interest in the Divine Emerald Lamp.

There could even be a mastermind pulling the strings behind all of them.

"Right. There's also another rumor about this Divine Emerald Lamp. Legend has it that this divine lamp is connected to Sword Emperor Qingxuan from a few centuries ago."

Wu Clan Leader suddenly remembered a fable that had been passed down in the clan for generations.

"Oh, a connection to a Sword Emperor," Chu Kuangren replied, with his interest now piqued.

"Exactly. The Divine Emerald Lamp's owner, Emperor Qingli was Sword Emperor Qingxuan's Daoist companion. But after Sword Emperor Qinxuan went into closed-door meditation in the Emperor Road, there was no news of him. Rumor has it that he died in his closed-door meditation. It's said that only Emperor Qingli knows the method of looking for him and that this method involves the Divine Emerald Lamp.

"Nevertheless, these were mere folklore during the ancient times. Nobody has any solid evidence to prove either of that." Wu Clan Leader shook his head and smiled.

"Whether it's true or not, we'll find out after we make the Divine Emerald Lamp whole again."

Chu Kuangren initially planned to return this Emperor Weapon to the Wu clan, but now, he scrapped that idea.

An incomplete Emperor Weapon was of no use for him, but he could not say the same when it was complete again. Moreover, it involved the existence of a Sword Emperor.

The next day.

After a long night's study, Chu Kuangren was almost done organizing all the information he had gotten about the Emperor Road.

The key information among all that was the Emperor Mountain at the end of the Emperor Road!

That was where the Emperor's Throne resided.

Ever since the Emperor Road was closed off, Emperor Mountain had not produced an Emperor's Throne for over a hundred and fifty thousand years.

Recently, an incredibly powerful Emperor's Aura had surged out from Emperor Mountain. The whole mountain was enveloped by an unknown force, and nobody was allowed to go near it.

Such a strange phenomenon was usually a sign that Emperor Mountain was about to produce an Emperor's Throne.

This had made all the living beings on Emperor Road go crazy as they all prepared to fight for the Emperor's Throne.

"The Emperor's Throne on Emperor Mountain is a symbol of Emperorhood. This concerns not just the sky-prides from Nine Heavens and the Underworld, but also the native sky-prides of Emperor Road and all those others who hail from the archaic or past ancient orthodoxies. Hah, this Race to Emperorhood is already at its crucial moment. It's getting increasingly more exciting now."

Chu Kuangren gripped the Descendant Self Sword in one hand and continued, "I hope that my next few opponents will be somewhat interesting. Otherwise, walking all the way to the end of this Emperor Road by myself will be too lonely and boring."

The Descendant Self Sword gently vibrated, as if it understood its owner's sentiments.

In that instant, all cultivators of the Wu clan felt themselves shudder, after which they checked their surroundings with curious glances.

"Wu Clan Leader, show yourself!"

Just then, a loud shriek echoed above the Wu clan.

Following that, a chilly Sword-based Daoist Rhyme swept across the room with great speed, covering the entire Wu clan.

That was a Sage Ruler Poise!
