Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

contemporary romance

"The place where I am now is known as the Ming Domain. It can be considered an ordinary domain compared to the many other great domains in the Great Hongmeng Universe.

"Meanwhile, the greatest and most influential force here would be the Radiant Church that tried to recruit me earlier. It's one of the most top-tiered and powerful forces throughout the Great Hongmeng Universe. Rumor has it that it's backed by a Transcendentalist.

"The Radiant Church here in the Ming Domain seems to be one of their church factions."

"To think I've found myself in such trouble after just arriving. Oh well, I can only blame my luck," Chu Kuangren thought out loud.

Suddenly, he sensed a familiar aura approaching the Thousand Suns City at rapid speed.

He looked into the distance, and it was none other than Yan Xu, the person pestering him not long ago.

"Is he here specifically for me?" Chu Kuangren thought.

Meanwhile, upon arriving, Yan Xu went to one of the places for information exchange. He immediately took out an insignia, stating his identity and position in the church.

When the members of the church saw that insignia, they were stunned.

"Greetings, Priest Yan."

Members of the Radiant Church were ranked according to a hierarchy.

From ordinary congregants, followed by senior congregants, to Novice Priests, Intermediate Priests, Expert Priests, Grand Priests, and then Bishops…

For context, the administrator of Thousand Suns City was only an ordinary Novice Priest.

Yan Xu, however, was an Expert Priest.

The difference between the two was great.

"Activate the Enchanted Radiant Boundary and seal off the Thousand Suns City," Yan Xu quickly ordered.

Right after receiving the instruction, the Thousand Suns City's Priest nodded and ordered his men to activate the enchanted boundary.

Within the church, divine light burst from the white Radiant Goddess statue, along with a massive wave of Radiant Daoist law.

The Radiant Church worshiped the Holy Light Ruler as their religion.

She was also known as the Radiant Goddess.

A statue of her could be found in every church of the Radiant Church.

Those were no ordinary statues. When imbued with large amounts of power of belief, it could unleash powerful radiant energy, which would enable the church members to do many things.

In an instant, a white pillar of light rose into the sky with massive waves of Daoist laws spreading everywhere. A great enchanted boundary enveloped all of the Thousand Suns City.

"What's going on?"

"It's an enchanted boundary made from radiant energy."

"Why are they doing this?"

Many of the cultivators in the Thousand Suns City were puzzled.

Knowing the Radiant Church's massive influence, most were enraged but dared to speak out.

A glint flashed in Chu Kuangren's eyes when he saw the enchanted boundary.

"Oh, did they do that just for me?"

Meanwhile, several black-robed cultivators gathered somewhere became weary when the enchanted boundary enveloped all of the Thousand Suns City.

"Why has the church suddenly activated the enchanted boundary?"

"Have we been discovered?"

"Our movements have been stealthy so far. There's no way they've discovered us."

"Tell our guys to stay alert."

The cultivators grew solemn. 

It seemed like they were afraid of the church members discovering them.

Inside the church, the Radiant Enchanted Boundary put a smile on Yan Xu's face. "Now that the enchanted boundary has been activated, no one is allowed to leave with the church's permission. All that's left is to find you now, mysterious newcomer…"

Yan Xu's Immortal Consciousness flowed, spreading everywhere like a tidal wave.

His Immortal Consciousness, which was vast and powerful, was now close to a Primordial's level.

That was why he was qualified to become an Expert Priest.

"Found you."

Once Yan Xu locked onto Chu Kuangren's aura, he opened his eyes.

In a tavern in Thousand Suns City, Chu Kuangren was enjoying a drink. Just as he was about to take another drink, his hand paused, and an indifferent smile stretched across his face. "Already here, huh?"I think you should take a look at

Soon, a figure walked into the tavern. It was Yan Xu.

"Haha, it took me a hard time finding you, little fellow."

Yan Xu laughed as he sat in front of Chu Kuangren. Then, he pointed to the Radiant Enchanted Boundary outside and asked, "Do you know what that is?"

"An enchanted boundary."

"That's right. This is the Radiant Enchanted Boundary, created by the power of our Goddess. Even a Primordial would find it hard to break through it. Besides, this is not even a thousandth of the Goddess's full power. If you're willing to join our church, you'll receive our Goddess's blessing. By then, you might even become a Transcendentalist…"

Yan Xu continued pitching to Chu Kuangren incessantly, trying very hard to paint him a good picture of the Radiant Church.

He was no different than a salesman for a pyramid scheme.

Chu Kuangren remained unmoved as he sat there. He said, "I'm not interested in your Goddess. Please leave."

"Sigh. Are you really not going to join us, little fellow?"

"Yup."

"In that case, what a shame." Yan Xu shook his head.

Then, he said, "By the way, I noticed you using a Chaos Supreme Treasure earlier. That was an extremely mysterious item. Can I take a look at it again?"

"I don't usually allow strangers to see my belongings just because they want to."

"Come on, little fellow. You're no fun. I just want to take a look. It's not like I won't return it to you." As Yan Xu said that, he was preparing to unleash a technique

Suddenly, many cultivators dressed in long white robes surrounded the tavern outside.

The crowd quickly moved away from that place.

"It's the cultivators from the Radiant Church. What are they doing here?"

"It looks like someone has provoked them."

"Tsk, who's so foolish to do something like that?"

Among the crowd, the cultivators dressed in black robes looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It looks like they're not here for us."

"Let's carry on as planned."

Inside the tavern, Chu Kuangren was aware of Yan Xu's subtle actions, so he warned them indifferently, "Let me give you a piece of advice: don't mess around with me."

"You're overthinking it, little fellow. The Radiant Church has always believed in winning over the people's hearts with virtue and honor. Even if you don't join us, we won't harm you. However…"

Yan Xu chuckled before the tone of his voice shifted, and his gaze turned cold. "Our church has recently lost a precious treasure, and it happens to bear a striking resemblance to the Chaos Supreme Treasure in your possession. Can you please take it out so I can verify whether it's the same one we've lost?"

"What if I say no?"

"Then, I'll have to resort to some harsher measures." Yan Xu immediately reached out to grab Chu Kuangren. An extremely powerful Daoist law was swirling in the palm of his hand, seemingly intent on incapacitating Chu Kuangren and rendering him unable to fight.

From his perspective, Chu Kuangren had just arrived in the Great Hongmeng Universe and had not fully acclimated to the laws of the universe here. Hence, dealing with him was easy.

He originally intended to trick Chu Kuangren into joining the church and slowly lure him to hand out the precious treasure. However, it seemed that only a more aggressive approach would work now.

"Boom!"

A palm attack landed on Chu Kuangren's shoulder.

However, his body only shook a little.

Yan Xu's face fell.

'This impact… doesn't feel right.'

Before he could react, Chu Kuangren had put down his wine glass and revealed a menacing gaze.

After that, Chu Kuangren raised his hand and gave him a brutal slap. All Yan Xu could feel was the intense pain on his cheek, followed by his body sent flying away involuntarily.

"Boom!"

It made a huge hole in the tavern wall.

Yan Xu was sent flying for quite some distance before landing on the Radiant Enchanted Boundary. The church members waiting for his command to act were stunned.

Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren slowly walked out from the tavern, looked at the flying Yan Xu, and said coldly. "How dare you take advantage of my politeness? Do you think I'm going to sit there and take your attack like that?"

Although he had just arrived and did not wish to cause a commotion, he was not afraid to deal with trouble.

If he backed down when his opponent was pressing on harder, he would no longer be the Chu Kuangren everyone knew. For those who dared provoke him, be it from the radiant to the dark side, he would ensure that they suffer regardless.
