Chapter 2137 Fortune’s Blessing, Pan Gu Universe Is a Force to Be Reckoned With, Liu Feng’s Challenge
Back in Myriad Arms City, Chu Kuangren smiled when he saw his name in first place on the Primordial Leaderboard.
“Hmm, not much of a surprise.”
If he gave everything, he could rival a Grand Dao Supreme Honorable despite being a Primordial.
Such power was unmatched within the Primordial Realm.
Hence, it was only normal for him to be in first place.
When his name was announced, a large amount of spiritual qi rumbled in the realm, and a mystical energy of fortune came from the sky.
It was massive.
As Chu Kuangren was getting blessed, he had a feeling that his cultivation would be much smoother from now on, and he was even more intrigued by the Hongmeng Leaderboard.
“This is just one of the leaderboards. If I can rank high on multiple leaderboards, I can get more blessings. What would happen then?”
He was interested to find out more, but he knew it was not easy to rank first in the Primordial Leaderboard.
There were some leaderboards that he was not qualified at all, such as the Monarch Leaderboard that had appeared before.
The leaderboard would only consider Monarch-class Transcendentalists in the Great Hongmeng Universe.
Since he was not even a Monarch, he was not qualified to be on it.
There was also a Divine Maiden Leaderboard, which was exclusive to female cultivators.
There was no way a man like him would be on that leaderboard.
However, he had heard of a Young Master Leaderboard.
Would his handsome looks qualify or even rank high on that?
“Congratulations, Master, for ranking first on the Primordial Leaderboard.”
Ou Yenuo came over with a surprised look on his face. He knew Chu Kuangren was something else but not to that extent.
He had just ascended to Primordial a while ago, yet he was ranked first on the Primordial Leaderboard already.
However, it strengthened Ou Yenuo’s loyalty. There was no harm in serving someone as strong as Chu Kuangren.
“Ou Yenuo, I heard there’s a leaderboard for weaponsmiths. I wonder how high would you rank on that?” Chu Kuangren asked.
Ou Yenuo pondered. “There are many talented people in the Infiniverse. I may be confident of my weaponsmithing skills, but I dare not claim the first place. However, I think I can be within the top ten.”
He had done some research and knew that in the previous Weaponsmith Leaderboard, the first place could easily forge the highest-grade weapon, which would be the Hongmeng Supreme Treasure.
Considering that he had forged one, he should be able to rank in the top ten.
“Hm.”
Chu Kuangren nodded.
The Primordial Leaderboard sparked a commotion across the Great Hongmeng Universe.
Those whose names were listed received the blessing of fortune.
It aroused jealousy and envy from some people. Moreover, some interested parties refused to sit back and do nothing.
Some started to study old records to find out more about the leaderboards.
That was when they learned that the ranking on the leaderboard was not fixed. When the next leaderboard was announced, the ranking on the previous leaderboard would update as well.
In other words, the names on the leaderboard could be replaced.
The thought aroused the fighting spirit in many cultivators.
It gave them the idea to defeat the name on the leaderboard and snatch those from their ranking and blessing.
As for Chu Kuangren, who was placed first, many eyes were on him. However, since he was capable enough to be ranked first, people deemed him as a force to be reckoned with. For now, no one dared to make a move on him.
Other than the commotion sparked by the Primordial Leaderboard, some started their investigation on the Pan Gu Universe.
After all, the Pan Gu Universe had produced cultivators that ranked high on the Primordial Leaderboard. There was no way the universe would remain unknown.
However, some forces who investigated the universe were disappointed by the results.
“Is that it?”
“The strongest in that universe is Chu Kuangren, the first place on the Primordial Leaderboard? They don’t even have a Grand Dao cultivator?”
“Isn’t this a normal universe? How powerful could it be? How disappointing. Let’s just leave it for now.”
“Hmph. They were even invaded by another universe. I bet they have limited resources.”
Many people thought that, to be able to produce that many names that ranked high on the Primordial Leaderboard, the Pan Gu Universe must be resourceful.
Hence, there must be at least multiple Monarch beings there.
However, the strongest in the Pan Gu Universe was Chu Kuangren, the first on the Primordial Leaderboard, and it did not have any Monarchs or a Grand Dao cultivator.
With that, the other forces and universes did not view it as a threat.
“They can only rank high on the Primordial Leaderboard. I don’t think they will make it to other leaderboards.”
“Yeah. We don’t have to care too much about them.”
Back in the Holy Radiant Church, the Radiant Goddess held a jade scroll in her hand that contained all the information regarding the Pan Gu Universe.
“Interesting.”
The Radiant Goddess was much more interested in the Pan Gu Universe than the other forces.
“Goddess, why are you so concerned about this universe?” Ming Fei asked.
“It’s a universe that went through multiple major disasters and survived. Why shouldn’t I be concerned about them?”
The Radiant Goddess said with a smile, “Based on the information here, the ancient beings of the Pan Gu Universe went through reincarnations, so they have only been cultivating for tens of thousands of years.
“For them to return to the Primordial Realm in such a short time and rank high on the Primordial Leaderboard, do you think they are like the other cultivators?
“They might not have enough powerful cultivators in that universe, but they have high potential. You can’t be sure if they won’t ascend to the Monarch Class in the future. You really shouldn’t underestimate the Pan Gu Universe.”
Ming Fei nodded in agreement. “Lan Yu is from that universe as well. She revealed that she knows Chu Kuangren and that they’re quite close. We should really pay close attention to people from that universe.”
Ming Fei was astonished by fate itself. Just when she finally found a disciple after so many years, her disciple turned out to be closely related to Chu Kuangren.
“I have a feeling that this Pan Gu Universe will one day be known across the Infiniverse,” the Radiant Goddess said with anticipation.
…
Back in Myriad Arms City, Chu Kuangren was cultivating to comprehend the Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique.
On that particular day, he sensed a powerful aura coming his way and had locked onto the entire Myriad Arms City.
Sword qi that shadowed the sky formed a massive dark cloud above the city.
The terrifying aura blanketed the land.
It felt as if the dark cloud would crash on the city.
Ou Yenuo and his men stared at the dark cloud with solemn looks. They saw a man standing beneath the dark cloud.
The man in gray robes had powerful sword qi swirling around him that caused his long dark hair to dance along with the wind.
“Who is that?”
“Judging from his cultivation, he’s just a Primordial. However, he possesses such a powerful aura. He must be someone on the Primordial Leaderboard!”
“Indeed, and he doesn’t seem friendly.”
The weaponsmiths were worried.
The man in the sky shouted, “I am Liu Feng, placed eleventh on the Primordial Leaderboard. I’m here for Chu Kuangren, hoping that he will enlighten me.”
He stated his intention succinctly.
Ou Yenuo and the others were not overly surprised.
The cultivators in the city also heard Liu Feng, including the cultivators who came to the city to investigate Chu Kuangren.
They were all intrigued when they heard Liu Feng’s challenge.
That might be the chance for them to finally see the true power of the one ranked first on the Primordial Leaderboard
