The Great Ruler

Chapter 755 - Big Hunt

“This is…”

Many warriors of the Great Havenlaw Army that were on the stone platform were looking at the Spiritual Energy light screen in astonishment. The Sovereign Celestial Body that was dimmed from the exhaustion once again burst forth with dazzling golden light at this moment.

Furthermore, everyone could sense that the Spiritual Energy fluctuations emanated from the Sovereign Celestial Body were more powerful than before.

“His Spiritual Energy recovered?” After being stunned for a brief moment, someone exclaimed.

“He’s refining the Spiritual Fire Marrow in the midst of battle.” A smear of astonishment flashed on the face of Commander Tie Shan as he solemnly said.

“What?”

Hearing his words, even Commander Bing Qing felt a chill in her heart. The surrounding Great Havenlaw Army warriors involuntarily widened their mouths. They were extremely familiar with the Spiritual Fire Marrow, so they knew the intense burning pain one had to endure. So, generally, they would seek a quiet and safe location to refine them. They didn’t even dare to think of such a daring matter as refining it during battle.

After all, no one was confident that they could maintain their state of mind to fight while during the intense burning pain.

“Isn’t he too daring?” Someone couldn’t help mumbling as they looked at the dazzling figure on the Spiritual Energy light screen with a smear of admiration in their eyes. No matter what, the latter’s courage was worth admiration and the crucial point was that he even succeeded…

Bing Qing’s initially tensed expression quietly eased. The youth, Mu Chen, did have some extraordinary points for him to receive such heavy attention by the Ruler.

Initially, she was doubtful about whether Mu Chen could get through the Nine-Nine Blaze Dragon Array in three months time. But with such a reckless training method, the outcome might be a different one…

…

Just as everyone on the stone platform was astonished by the fact that Mu Chen’s Spiritual Energy had suddenly recovered, their hearts were filled with surprise, since they could sense the robust Spiritual Energy in his body.

The robust degree of the Spiritual Energy was even more powerful than before. Clearly, after experiencing the previous battle, which exhausted his Spiritual Energy, the Spiritual Energy in his body showed signs of improvement.

Although there was still a decent distance for him to reach Third Grade Sovereign, the degree of improvement was something that he would have had to cultivate for some time. But, right now, it only took a few hours for such improvements.

The more dangerous it was, the more he could unleash his potential, it was a true saying.

Although the Greatlaw Blaze Pond was filled with danger, it was greatly beneficial to his cultivation.

Sharpness gathered in Mu Chen’s black pupils as a heroic spirit rose in his heart. He had gone through his fair share of life-and-death battles in his path, so this small Greatlaw Blaze Pond wasn’t qualified to stop his advancement.

Mu Chen laughed as he willed in his heart, controlling the Great Solar Undying Body to open its golden palm and a terrifyingly crushing force shot towards a Spiritual Fire Python, causing the latter to issue a sharp hissing noise.

Boom!

The Great Solar Undying Body directly stepped into the magma and a golden light swept out like a demonic force as it swept towards the Spiritual Fire Pythons. In an instant, magma splattered as Spiritual Fire Pythons were flipped, flying out. Every single golden fist would shatter a single Spiritual Fire Python every time.

However, those Spiritual Fire Pythons did not have any intelligence, so they weren’t afraid. On the contrary, Mu Chen’s massacre had aroused their desire to attack. A hissing roar rang out as the Spiritual Fire Pythons endlessly pounced forth, without any fear for death.

The golden figure’s fists danced in the magma as golden light violently raged out along with Spiritual Energy. As for the magma, the ferocious Spiritual Fire Pythons endlessly pounced forth.

It was because of the massacre in this patch of magma that caused the shaking to be endless.

The frantic battle here made even the warriors of the Great Havenlaw Army, who were veterans in battle, to be dumbfounded.

Although Mu Chen could make use of the Spiritual Fire Marrow to recover his Spiritual Energy, he couldn’t fight endlessly. Spiritual Energy could be recovered, but the mind could not be recovered with external help.

Therefore, this frantic battle lasted for an entire day, before the Great Solar Undying Body that was surrounded by Spiritual Fire Pythons, suddenly burst out. In a few flickers, it had charged out of the encirclement. Golden light flickered again as a figure hid into a cave.

Mu Chen sat down the instant he entered the cave. His face was pale and a dense exhaustion was shown on his brows. This high-degree battle had practically exhausted his mind. If it wasn’t for his will to hold on, he might have fainted long ago.

But even after he had left the battle, he could not rest, since it was the best time to train.

Mu Chen waved his hand and the scarlet Spiritual Fire Marrows floated before him, before he gently held onto them. A jade bottle appeared in his hand and small transparent streams flowed out, coiling around Mu Chen. It was filled with extremely pure Spiritual Energy.

The Spiritual Fire Marrows and Spiritual Sovereign Liquids were prepared.

Mu Chen sat with his legs crossed and swiftly formed seals, before tiringly closed his eyes slowly, entering into a state of cultivation. His mouth was slightly opened as a Spiritual Fire Marrow and a drop of Sovereign Celestial Liquid flew into his mouth.

The exhausting Spiritual Energy, once again, woke up in his body and, in addition, it was more robust and refined…

…

Mu Chen’s method of training repeated for the next month.

The scarlet magma was lifting waves every single day as a colossal golden figure that was like a robot that did not know the meaning of exhaustion, endlessly fought with the Spiritual Fire Pythons.

And every single time, he would endure till his mind was at its limits, before retreating from the magma range and going into deep meditation.

Mu Chen’s method of training could be considered as an insanity, because even the Great Havenlaw Army, who had treated training like taking their meals, was speechless at his reckless training method.

Although this youth might appear to be gentle on the surface, they never thought that the stubbornness and perseverance deep within his bones would be so shocking. They told themselves, after putting themselves in his shoes, that they probably could not achieve what he did.

It was so much so that even Tie Shan, Bing Qing and the remaining Commanders of the Great Havenlaw Army were inwardly astonished by Mu Chen’s performance for the past month. They sighed in their hearts. There was truly a reason why the Ruler would pay such great attention to his young man.

So, despite his efforts being so great, his harvest for the past month wasn’t small. In just a short time of a month, the Spiritual Energy in his body had grown more robust. Although he had yet to make his breakthrough, it was a fold more robust than a month before. Furthermore, Mu Chen lasted longer in each fight every single time.

At the beginning, he could only last half a day after exerting all he had. And a month later, he could last for nearly two entire days!

Furthermore, he was gradually getting used to the high temperature in the Greatlaw Blaze Pond. On the contrary, breathing in the heated atmosphere here, he felt a comfortable heat.

During this month, many Spiritual Fire Pythons that were over a century of age were hunted by Mu Chen. It was so much so that even those that exceeded a century of lifespan that fell in Mu Chen’s hands had reached a terrifying amount of three digits.

In the end, the amount of Spiritual Fire Pythons that gathered here seemed to have been completely wiped out by Mu Chen, since the pitiful amount was no longer comparable to a month before.

Although the Spiritual Fire Pythons did not have any intelligence, they could sense the vast amount of blood from their kind that flowed in the region. So they knew that it wasn’t a friendly place.

Therefore, the amount of Spiritual Fire Pythons swiftly decreased in number. After a month, Mu Chen realised that there weren’t anymore Spiritual Fire Pythons that could be hunted by him.

Mu Chen sat on a protruded rock in the mountain and swept his gaze over the surroundings. He couldn’t find any prey, which left him helplessly pouting his lips.

“The Spiritual Energy in the Sovereign Sea seems to be reaching full…”

Mu Chen lowered his head and looked at his hands. He slowly clenched his fists as he sensed the torrential Spiritual Energy fluctuations within his body. He couldn’t help grinning, but frowned shortly after, since he could sense that the growth of Spiritual Energy in his body had come to a halt. No matter how he trained in his Spiritual Energy by refining the Spiritual Fire Marrows, it could not give anymore increment in his Spiritual Energy as he did before.

The reason for this was that his Spiritual Energy had touched the bottleneck. Similar ways could not let him achieve such similar results as before.

A sharp light flickered in Mu Chen's eyes as he stared at the magma ocean and licked his lips. Right now, Spiritual Fire Marrows that were a century old could no longer satisfy his training needs.

If he wanted to break through the bottleneck, he would need an even more powerful Spiritual Fire Marrow.

Such as the ones that have reached the age of three hundred years old or even five hundred years old… But a Spiritual Fire Marrow of such a level could only be found in the depths of the Greatlaw Blaze Pond.

However, the temperature of magma in the depths of the Greatlaw Blaze Pond was extremely terrifying. Even powerful Commanders like Tie Shan and Bing Qing would not dare to casually go so deep.

But, it was a pity that this could not obstruct Mu Chen.

He raised his head and smiled at the sky. He could sense a Spiritual Energy fluctuation over there. Bing Qing and the rest were most likely paying attention to this area. He deeply inhaled a mouthful of air and no longer hesitated. His figure moved and turned into a streak of light that charged through the surface of the magma ocean.

Splash!

Magma splashed as Bing Qing and the remaining Commanders watched Mu Chen leap into the Greatlaw Blaze Pond and exchanged looks.
