Although it was winter, Chu Renkuang only wore a coarse short-sleeved shirt. His chest was open, revealing his tanned skin and steel-like muscles.
Li Chengfeng's own body was also very well trained. It was definitely one of the best among martial artists, and a rare close combat expert among cultivators. If someone took off his clothes, they would see his muscles wrapped around him like a layer of armor, full of masculine beauty.
But if Li Chengfeng was wearing armor, then compared to Chu Renkuang, Li Chengfeng's was wearing light armor, with elegant lines.
Chu Renkuang's body seemed to be covered in a thick layer of heavy armor, like a monster that could explode at any time. Every muscle on his body contained a terrifying power that could be seen with the naked eye.
What scared Li Chengfeng the most was that other than the scars, the rest of Chu Renkuang's skin was as smooth as jade. When the sun shone on it, it reflected layers of light.
What did this mean?
Li Chengfeng, who had trained his body for more than ten years, knew all too well!
This meant that his opponent had cultivated from the outside to the inside. His body alone had been trained to the highest level: the jade body!
If the highest level of cultivation for a cultivator's internal Yang Spirit was the golden body, then the highest level of cultivation for the external body was the jade body!
His entire body was like jade, perfect and smooth!
Even when facing three golden body masters surrounding him, Chu Renkuang did not show any signs of fear. He grinned and said, "And I was wondering who it was, turns out it's a piece of trash raised by the Imperial Court!"
Li Chengfeng's scalp went numb. No matter what, his opponent was a golden body master. In this guy's eyes, he was a piece of trash?
Although cultivators could not be officials, officials could not cultivate. This was an iron law set by the Nine Heavens. Those who disobeyed it … usually did not end well.
But rules were dead, people were alive.
You have a plan, I have a ladder to climb over the wall.
Cultivators needed the vast amount of resources from the imperial court to support their cultivation and become stronger, and the imperial court also needed some cultivators that they could mobilize and control. Otherwise, once they encountered a cultivator who was difficult to deal with committed a major case that involved the reputation of the royal family, would they also throw the blame to the cultivation sects?
One had to know that the big shots of the cultivation sects were all very crafty. Some cases were done by great devils, and they were often earth-shattering cases. For example, the Unity Sect's murder case. This kind of case was something that even the Unity Sect couldn't handle. Moreover, this murder case involved the royal family.
It was said that because Chu Renkuang was on a whim, he killed Prince Qing of Great Qi, who was a guest at the United Sect. Moreover, he smashed him into minced meat with his bare hands. The scene was too horrible to look at.
However, this news was sealed off by the Emperor of Da Qi. The United One Sect did not expose their dirty linen to the public. However, how could they hide the death of a Prince?
Chu Renkuang became the new Great Devil, but none of the cultivation sects were willing to get involved in this case. Therefore, the Daqi Kingdom could only summon up the courage to send the cultivators they could to hunt down Chu Renkuang.
But … who the hell would be willing to hunt down a great devil who could kill all six cultivation sects in the world?
Cultivators loved money, but cultivators cherished their lives even more!
No one dared to take the initiative to hunt down Chu Renkuang. However, if he took the initiative to come to a place like the Divine Capital, then things would be different!
These three golden body experts were the 'Divine Palace Consecrators' hired by the royal family of Da Qi. They were only consecrators and did not have official titles.
They were responsible for investigating cases that the famous constables of the imperial court could not solve, or they were responsible for helping these professional constables to solve cases.
Hearing Chu Renkuang's mockery, the middle-aged man in the lead held a bell in his hand. He laughed coldly and said, "Chu Renkuang, don't you dare be so arrogant. Quickly surrender and avoid further offense!"
"Further offense?" Chu Renkuang raised his head and laughed maniacally. "I wonder what offense it is?"
The middle-aged Divine Palace Consecrator shouted angrily, "The Unity One Sect's murder case has irrefutable evidence. You still want to quibble!"
Chu Renkuang laughed loudly and said, "If you want to incriminate someone, you can always find a pretext!
What's the point of saying so much? Bring me in if you can and force me to sign my name! "
The middle-aged Deities Templar Consecrator was enraged. He was about to rebuke Chu Renkuang when the Cosmos God Cult disciples on patrol quietly surrounded them from all directions. One of them barked, "Divine Capital's holy land, who dares to be insolent?"
The middle-aged Deities Templar Consecrator said coldly, "The Deities Templar's arrest has nothing to do with your Cosmos God Cult. Get out of the way!"
The Cosmos God Cult disciple gave them a quick glance and sneered. "We don't care if you arrest people, but if you mess up the Divine Capital's prosperity, the God Cult will not sit idly by!"
The middle-aged Deities Templar Consecrator snorted coldly and shouted at the other two, "End this quickly!
Arrest them! "
He first shook the bell in his hand. Chengfeng instantly felt as if someone punched his brain. His eardrums hurt and his head buzzed. Even the immortal energy protecting his body could not withstand it.
The pain was so intense that Chengfeng's vision turned black and he fell backward. Han Tianxing and Zhao Xiaobao felt as if their chests were struck, spitting out mouthfuls of blood. Before they knew what happened, they were already heavily injured and on the verge of collapsing.
At the same time, the surrounding Cosmos God Cult disciples cast their arts at the same time to set up an enchantment barrier. When the bell's sound wave hit the green enchantment barrier, ripples spread out.
Zhao Feiyue's brows were tightly furrowed. She reached out to support Chengfeng and enveloped him with a strong yet gentle magical power, shielding him from the horrifying sound wave attack. The magical power then spread out to cover Zhao Xiaobao and Han Tianxing. Otherwise, with their magical power, it would only take a snap of a finger for them to bleed from their orifices and die on the spot.
Chengfeng's vision cleared a little and he saw the middle-aged Deities Templar Consecrator continuously shaking the bell. The two golden body experts on both sides immediately attacked Chu Renkuang from the left and right. One of them pointed to the sky and a bolt of lightning struck down towards Chu Renkuang, while the other formed a series of hand seals. The bluestone floor under Chu Renkuang's feet seemed to come to life, turning into a pair of giant hands that gripped onto Chu Renkuang's legs.
Chu Renkuang did not move at all. He stared at them and grinned. As he watched the lightning strike down, his figure instantly disappeared from where he was, and the giant bluestone hands that grabbed his feet also instantly shattered into powder.
With Chu Renkuang's disappearance, the air around him exploded, producing a deafening sound. The ground immediately caved in, and the rocks in the surroundings shot out like cannonballs. Afterwards, he appeared in front of the middle-aged hall of worship and threw a punch.
The moment this punch was thrown out, before it could even land on the person, there was another terrifying explosion in the air!
A visible curtain of air appeared in the air around Chu Renkuang's fist, wrapping around Chu Renkuang's fist!
The middle-aged Deities Templar was stunned. Before he could react, his body had already taken the full brunt of the punch. Then, his entire body, along with his golden body protection, was hit. There was another explosion and another visible ripple appeared around the middle-aged Deities Templar. In an instant, this golden body expert was sent flying into the sky like a cannonball, disappearing from sight!
This time, Li Chengfeng was dumbfounded!
Because others might not know what these three explosions were, but Li Chengfeng knew very well that this was the sound of Chu Renkuang's movement and punching speed breaking the sound barrier!
Golden body experts may be powerful, but … the moment they cast their spells, they were already sent flying into the sky by Chu Renkuang. No one knew if they were dead or alive.
Li Chengfeng's hair stood on end. He suddenly remembered the opponent he met during the assessment who used invisibility spells to create the illusion that he was so fast that he could not be seen.
But now, Li Chengfeng realised that there really was a terrifying expert in front of him who was so fast that he could not see, or even react in time!
In the world of martial arts, there was nothing that could not be broken, only speed could not be broken!
Not to mention, just speed alone was not this terrifying!
This Chu Renkuang also possessed terrifying strength, able to send a golden body expert flying in an instant!
