Boom!
The overbearing golden light swept over the Earth, as if a golden colored blazing sun was rising from the collision of the two fists. The dreadful golden shockwaves raged and layers of the ground collapsed under the series of impacts.
The three Grade Seven Sovereigns of the Demonic Rhino Clan and Ink Ring had long since retreated from the fighting. Nevertheless, the shockwaves from the impact were still stinging their skin. They stared at the source of the golden light, where, with the rise of the golden sun, another eruption of the formidable golden light was occurring.
Boom!
The golden light swept out, instantly shooting the two figures backwards. Stepping out into the void, Mu Chen’s every footfall left a divet of about a hundred feet in the ground below him.
He retreated for dozens of steps before he could forcefully stabilize his body. The golden light on the surface of his body appeared to be invincible, but at this time, his face was looking directly ahead, solemnly.
His previous punch almost pushed the the second layer of the Dragon-Phoenix Body to the extreme, but even so, it still failed to allow him absolute superiority over his opponent. Jin Qingtian’s strength was indeed much greater than Zong Teng and the rest.
While Mu Chen’s face remained solemn, Jin Qingtian appeared in the sky in front of him. He looked down at his fist with a poker face, but in his eyes, a touch of amazement shone.
“Indeed, a strong body!” said Jin Qingtian slowly, bringing his gaze towards Mu Chen.
Although Mu Chen’s punch failed to wound him, he understood that, in the previous physical combat, he was actually at a slight disadvantage. This also implied that, if they were taking solely the strength of the body into account, the current Mu Chen was in a more advantageous position.
This was the reason why he couldn’t help but be a little amazed. With only his body strength, Mu Chen could pick a battle against a Grade Seven Sovereign! It was no wonder that, even though his spiritual strength was merely at Grade Six Sovereign, the threat posed by Mu Chen was far greater than the vast majority of Grade Seven Sovereigns.
In the far distance, Golden Break and Huo Yang were paying close attention to the ongoing battle. They had only just realized that it was not Han Shan or Nine Nether who was the most threatening person among them. Instead, it was Mu Chen, who looked as if he merely had the strength of a Grade Six Sovereign. This fellow could not only arrange the Heavenly Grade Spiritual Array, but his body was quite unique as well.
Fortunately, Mu Chen was only a Grade Six Sovereign. Otherwise, if his spiritual energy attained the level of a Grade Seven Sovereign, even with the presence of Jin Qingtian, nobody would be able to suppress him.
Looking at each other, Golden Break and Huo Yang sighed in relief. Although Mu Chen seemed to have defended himself against Jin Qingtian’s attack successfully, the latter had yet to truly awaken his spiritual energy. Once Jin Qingtian began to use the spiritual power of a Grade Seven Sovereign to its full capacity, Mu Chen would certainly be defeated easily.
Above, in the air, Jin Qingtian also nodded lightly and said, “I really don’t know how you cultivated such a sturdy body. In all of the younger generation that I’ve seen, people who can cultivate their body to such a level, like you, are extremely rare.”
Jin Qingtian paused a little, then his face was filled with the ferocious intention of killing again. “So, in order to express my respect to you, I’ll increase your knowledge by letting you find out how tyrannical the full force of a Grade Seven Sovereign can be!”
Boom!
The instant he finished speaking, a golden Spiritual Energy Windstorm broke out. The storm seemed to be connected to the heavens and earth and was extremely spectacular. A gust of powerful spiritual energy spread outwards from within it.
“Do you have the courage to receive my punch again?”
Standing in the storm, Jin Qingtian resembled an overbearing ancient spiritual lion in action. He laughed and unleashed his fist once again.
However, this time, it was not only the surge of his terrifying body’s force. To add on to this, he introduced a vast power that flowed like mountainous torrents, which was even more shocking. It seemed as if it was a golden torrent that ran through the universe, and anything that blocked its path would be completely destroyed!
With Jin Qingtian’s punch being as such, any ordinary Grade Seven Sovereign would have their faces pale upon seeing it. If they were hit directly, serious injuries would be unavoidable.
At this moment, even Han Shan’s, Nine Nether’s, and the others’ faces paled slightly. They felt a strong threat coming from the attack of Jin Qingtian.
The golden light rainbow ran through the universe and was reflected in the pupils of Mu Chen. His look was quite solemn at this time, but there was no fear hiding underneath it.
Jin Qingtian’s strength was indeed strong, but it would be too vain if he thought this would make Mu Chen fearful and want to surrender. Perhaps it was still a little difficult for Mu Chen to rely on his pure physical body strength to defeat such a strong Grade Seven Sovereign, whose skills were at their peak. However, if others would really think that Mu Chen was deprived of any other skills, then they might be making made a wrong judgement, indeed!
Creak.
Mu Chen’s palms suddenly clenched at this time. In the next moment, the space behind him suddenly twisted. The space seemed to be a sea of spiritual energy. This was his Sovereign Sea! In that Sovereign Sea, waves rolled up to lofty heights, and the vastness of the spiritual energy shook in a crazed manner.
Phew.
Taking a deep breath, Mu Chen slowly extended the palm of his hand and aimed it directly in front of him. The overbearing golden light rainbow swept through the sky and was rapidly magnified in Mu Chen’s pupils. It then swept towards him in an instant.
At the moment when the terrible impact occured, the spirit of the Dragon-Phoenix tangled and emerged on the right arm of Mu Chen. Then, the majestic spiritual energy erupted from the palm of his hand, directly forming a light shield that immediately entangled with the spiritual energy of the Dragon-Phoenix!
“Dragon-Phoenix Golden Shield!”
Boom!
Upon the formation of the Dragon-Phoenix Golden Shield, the overbearing golden light rainbow struck mercilessly, leading to the distorted character of the space. What stunned everyone was that, no matter how the golden light rainbow struck, the seemingly weak golden shield was still standing upright in front of Mu Chen, completely unbroken and intact.
The golden light rainbow gradually dimmed from its initial glare, then quickly became smaller, until the spiritual energy was completely exhausted and disappeared. When the golden light rainbow disappeared, the Dragon-Phoenix Golden Shield in front of Mu Chen was finally broken. It then turned into golden light spots, which scattered all over the boundless sky.
“Looking down at the spiritual energy of a Grade Six Sovereign like me will cause you to be at a disadvantage,” Mu Chen said, while he laughed and looked at Jin Qingtian.
Jin Qingtian furrowed his brows slightly. He could vaguely perceive that, although this Mu Chen was only a Grade Six Sovereign, the latter’s spiritual strength was far beyond the accredited level. This guy, be it via the aspects of physical or spiritual acumen, had achieved genius status for sure!
Very challenging indeed.
However, it was precisely the more challenging opponents that could arouse more of his spirit to fight. Only by defeating this opponent repeatedly would he be able to make more breakthroughs! After all, the road to cultivation required him to defeat strong enemies again and again!
“Haha. Be at a disadvantage? There are not many people qualified to place me at a disadvantage, but I think you should definitely are not one of them!” Jin Qingtian sneered, and the next moment, his foot suddenly slammed down, breaking the void underneath it. His body shape directly turned into a splash of golden light, while the gust of his punch resembled the roar of a lion, subjecting Mu Chen to an overwhelming pressure.
A beam of golden light filled Mu Chen’s body. In his body, whispers of the Dragon-Phoenix constantly echoed, while behind him, the Sovereign Sea oscillated. The power of his body perfectly blended with the spiritual energy, and when he was faced with the stormy offensive attacks of Jin Qingtian, he immediately chose the most direct confrontation.
Boom! Boom!
The two figures with golden light were staggered in the sky, their fists strong against each other. Every collision was as if it brought along with it astonishing thunder, shocking the entire world.
Below them, everyone was eyeing the hard fight above with solemn expressions. The impact of the fight shredded the layers of clouds within the radius of a few thousand feet!
In just a few minutes, the two figures above the sky had already fought for hundreds of rounds. Both sides were using their most powerful moves. There was no dodging at all, and every punch was made with their maximum possible strengths. Even Han Shan and the others had their jaws agape upon witnessing this terrifying confrontation!
Following the hard fights of Mu Chen and Jin Qingtian, the faces of Golden Break and Huo Yang became dark. They did not expect that, even after Jin Qingtian had already emboldened the spiritual energy power of a supreme Grade Seven Sovereign, he would still be able to achieve a triumphant victory.
“How could this guy be so strong?” Golden Break clenched his teeth and was actually a bit scared. It turns out that this Han Shan had also invited a powerful helper. Fortunately, they were fully prepared for this, or else they would have really lost to Han Shan!
“Although this kid seems to be powerful, he’s still only a Grade Six Sovereign. Thus, his level of spiritual energy should be inevitably inferior to Jin Qingtian. All in all, he won’t persevere much longer.” Golden Break’s eyes flickered as he spoke. After all, he was also a supreme talent.
Moreover, his judging eyes were naturally good. At a glance, he could spot some key points from this battle. Deadlocked as it might seem to be, if the battle persisted, the loser would most certainly be Mu Chen.
Boom!
Under the gaze of many eyes, another earth-shattering fight in the sky commenced, and then, both shadows fell backwards suddenly. Their torn clothing made them look rather battered.
On their bodies, the dark purple colors of their bruises were prominent. That was due to them bearing the terrible power shocks sent by their opponent. It was a relief that they were physically strong, or else their bodies would have collapsed at the very beginning of this marathon fight!
Jin Qingtian’s breaths were quite heavy, his bloody eyes stared at Mu Chen. Immediately, he grinned and reached out his palm to wipe the blood from his mouth. Without any further nonsense, his hands suddenly formed a seal.
Growl!
The earth-shattering growl of a lion resounded, and the bright golden light swept away from behind Jin Qingtian. In the end, it turned into a huge golden lion.
Around the head of the golden lion, there seemed to be the double image of another eight golden lion heads, but these were somewhat blurred. Yet, it was clear enough to show that Jin Qingtian had awakened the bloodline of the Golden Nine-Headed Lion!
“Even the Divine Beast’s form of the Golden Nine-Headed Lion has been summoned…” Upon seeing this scene, the expression in the eyes of Han Shan and the others froze. They naturally understood that, once a Divine Beast’s form had been summoned, their fighting power would increase dramatically.
Phew.
Mu Chen watched as the huge Golden Nine-Headed Lion stood proudly between the earth and sky. He took a deep breath and immediately covered his palms. Then, the seals changed.
A majestic aura suddenly appeared. Then, everyone could see a huge Sovereign Celestial Body slowly emerging behind Mu Chen.
That Celestial Body shone with golden light, as if it was made of pure gold. Behind his head, a Great Sun was suspended in the air, exuding a mysterious aura that caused the entire world to experience turbulence.
You have the form of a Divine Beast.
As for me, I have the Sovereign Celestial Body.
That being the case, let us try and find out who will be the one to laugh till the end?!
