Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws Chapter 3: Lead Disciple, Heavenly Crepe-myrtle Sword Art

Previously on Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws...
A surge of energy radiated from Chu Kuangren as the Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart awakened within him, causing chaos throughout Black Heaven Sect. This unprecedented disturbance caught the attention of powerful figures across the Azure Dragon Domain, each intrigued by the emergence of a potential Supreme Daoist Physique. As swords from the sect flew toward him, eager to acknowledge a new master, the outer sect disciples and elders looked on in awe. Amidst the spectacle, Chu Kuangren maintained composure, choosing to conceal the true source of his strength as he faced the gathered elders, sparking excitement for the future of the sect.

The Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart, a Supreme Daoist Physique!

These words were like a heavy explosive dropped into the middle of the crowd. A massive uproar erupted as the group of Elders rushed toward Chu Kuangren, surrounding him one after another.

“It truly is the Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart. This is absolutely magnificent!”

“The heavens are truly blessing our Black Heaven Sect!”

“With this Supreme Daoist Physique, our Black Heaven Sect can finally compete for the imperial throne in this generation!”

“Among the three thousand physiques, the Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart ranks within the top ten. It is the ultimate physique for mastering the Dao of the sword. Furthermore, our Black Heaven Sect was founded on swordsmanship! Hahaha, if this isn't the will of the heavens, what is?!”

“Even though this youth comes from the outer sect, we must dedicate all our resources to his growth now that a Supreme Daoist Physique has awakened. Why don't we promote him to a True Disciple?”

“Is a True Disciple enough? We must grant him the title of Daoist!”

“The nine great Daoists of our Black Heaven Sect are about to be joined by one more.”

At that precise moment, the distant Sword Mountain began to tremble violently.

The countless swords that had been hovering in the sky started flying back as if they were being called home.

The few sacred weapons seemed particularly unwilling to leave Chu Kuangren’s side, circling him several times. Ultimately, however, they were forced to streak back toward Sword Mountain.

Chu Kuangren stood there, momentarily dazed.

‘Hey, don’t leave!

‘Couldn't at least one of you stay behind?

‘You all showed up whenever you felt like it and now you're leaving just as easily. Are you playing with me?

‘A moment ago, you were acting like I was the only one in the world for you, and now you're gone.

‘Hmph, sword scum.’

“The Sect Master has activated Sword Mountain to recall the blades,” the white-haired old man explained.

“Bring the boy to see me.” A deep, magnetic voice belonging to a middle-aged man echoed from far away.

The Elder with white eyebrows gave Chu Kuangren a smile. “Come with me.”

“Yes, Elder.”

With a wave of his sleeve, the white-eyebrowed Elder wrapped Chu Kuangren in an invisible force, causing him to lift off the ground against his will.

Several Elders accompanied Chu Kuangren, transforming into streaks of light that shot across the sky. Before long, they arrived at a magnificent main hall.

Standing within the grand hall was a middle-aged man clad in white robes.

He possessed a handsome, refined face with touches of gray at his temples. He radiated an air of immortal grace and the profound spirit of a Daoist cultivator. This man was the current Sect Master of the Black Heaven Sect... Honorable Xuan Qi.

“We pay our respects to the Sect Master.”

The Elders stepped forward and bowed.

Honorable Xuan Qi gave a small nod before fixing his gaze on Chu Kuangren. He inspected the youth with a peculiar glint in his eyes.

“Indeed, the elegance of a Supreme Daoist Physique is truly stirring.”

“You overpraise me, Sect Master.”

“Heh, there is no need for modesty. I wish to take you as my personal disciple. From this day forward, you shall be the Lead Disciple of the Black Heaven Sect. I wonder if you are willing?”

Chu Kuangren was caught off guard by the proposal, and the surrounding disciples were even more stunned. None of them expected the Sect Master to value Chu Kuangren so highly.

He was being handed the position of Lead Disciple immediately.

Yet, upon further reflection, it made perfect sense.

This was the first time in the history of the Black Heaven Sect that a Supreme Daoist Physique had graced their ranks.

“My deepest respects to you, Master.”

Chu Kuangren bowed down without hesitation.

He had no reason to say no. He had originally hoped to simply be named a Daoist, but he never imagined Honorable Xuan Qi would be so generous as to make him the Eldest Martial Brother of the entire sect. He wouldn't dream of turning down such a golden opportunity.

“Excellent! Excellent!”

Honorable Xuan Qi laughed with pure joy.

By taking a Supreme Daoist Physique as his pupil, he would share in the glory once Chu Kuangren reached his full potential. If Chu Kuangren eventually ascended as the Heavenly Emperor, he would be the teacher of an Emperor. Such an honor was rare even throughout the ages.

“Starting tomorrow, you will stay by my side and cultivate.”

“Yes, Master.”

Once he became the disciple of Honorable Xuan Qi, Chu Kuangren’s social standing skyrocketed instantly. He was moved from his cramped courtyard to a sprawling Daoist palace, complete with a staff of personal maids to serve him.

The following morning.

Chu Kuangren woke up in a massive bed within his new chambers. He opened his eyes and looked around the room. “It wasn't a dream. It seems I really have transmigrated.”

He sat up and summoned the Fantasy Roulette in his mind.

“Start today’s lucky draw.”

Shimmering lights swirled in his vision as a giant roulette wheel materialized.

Just then, a knock sounded at the door.

“Enter,” Chu Kuangren said calmly.

A young woman with a slender figure, bright red lips, and pearly white teeth entered carrying a basin of water. “Young Master, it is time for your morning wash.”

The girl stole a glance at Chu Kuangren, her face flushing slightly. She was also an outer sect disciple of the Black Heaven Sect who had been assigned to serve him just yesterday.

She didn't mind the work at all.

In fact, Chu Kuangren’s status was now legendary. He was the personal disciple of the Sect Master and the Lead Disciple of the entire sect. His rank was even superior to that of the Daoists.

To her, serving him was like leaping through the dragon's gate to reach the heavens.

‘Besides, Young Master Chu is incredibly handsome,’ she thought to herself secretly.

“What is your name?” Chu Kuangren inquired.

“I am Liu Bing.”

“Liu Bing... I’ll just call you Lil Bing then.”

“As the Young Master commands.”

Chu Kuangren noted that Lil Bing didn't seem to notice the Fantasy Roulette; it appeared he was the only one who could see it.

He mentally commanded "draw," and the wheel began to spin.

“Congratulations! The host has received an Iron-grade Spirit Gathering Pill.”

A Spirit Gathering Pill?

And only an Iron-grade one?

Chu Kuangren’s lip gave a slight twitch.

After the incredible luck of yesterday’s ten draws, this Spirit Gathering Pill was barely worth mentioning. With his current status, he could probably get as many of these as he wanted.

Whatever. This was simply the nature of luck.

Chu Kuangren left the pill in his inventory for now. He finished washing his face and changed into a fresh set of robes.

“Young Master looks truly magnificent in these clothes.”

Lil Bing couldn't help but stare at Chu Kuangren with a look of pure adoration.

He wore a jade cap on his head and long, wide-sleeved white robes embroidered with golden threads in the shape of a qilin.

Combined with his elegant aura, Chu Kuangren looked exactly like an immortal who had descended to the mortal realm. Lil Bing was at a loss for words to describe his beauty.

“It’s not bad.” Chu Kuangren smiled, pleased with his reflection.

Once he had finished grooming himself, he went to find Honorable Xuan Qi.

Inside the Longevity Hall of the Black Heaven Sect.

Honorable Xuan Qi was seated upon a meditation mat.

Chu Kuangren arrived and offered a respectful bow. “Greetings, Master.”

“Ah, you’ve arrived. Take a seat.”

Honorable Xuan Qi gestured to a nearby mat and gave Chu Kuangren some initial instructions. Then, he spoke: “Kuangren, as an outer sect disciple, you were limited to the basic techniques of our sect. Now that you are the Lead Disciple, you have earned the right to study Sage Techniques. Our Black Heaven Sect possesses Three Great Sage Techniques...

First is the Heavenly Crepe-myrtle Sword Art, which allows you to develop a peerless and tyrannical sword Qi.

Second is the Golden Time Immemorial Light Art. Mastering this provides an inexhaustible supply of spiritual energy and creates a golden protective light that no attack can penetrate. It is a technique for both offense and defense.

Finally, there is the Divine Nine Suns Art. This will make your spiritual energy incredibly fierce. At the level of perfection, you can manifest a vision of nine suns in the sky and harness the sun’s own power.

Which of these three do you wish to pursue?”

“I wish to study the Heavenly Crepe-myrtle Sword Art.”

Chu Kuangren made his choice almost instantly.

He possessed the Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart, a gift for swordsmanship that was second to none. There was no reason for him to ignore his natural talent by choosing a different path.

Among the three Sage Techniques, the Heavenly Crepe-myrtle Sword Art was clearly the most compatible with his physique.

“Indeed, I expected nothing less.”

Honorable Xuan Qi nodded approvingly. He produced a jade scroll and handed it over to Chu Kuangren. “The Heavenly Crepe-myrtle Sword Art is contained within this scroll. How much you can grasp depends on your own talent and destiny. If you run into any difficulties during your cultivation, do not hesitate to ask me for guidance.”

“Yes, Master.” Chu Kuangren accepted the jade scroll with both hands.
