Chapter 972: Entering the Land of the Divine Beasts
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When Mu Chen defeated Jiang Ya and Qin Xuan, the last entry of the Nine Netherbird was completely in his hands. After that, he did not leave but instead stayed in the Nine Netherworld to wait for the opening of the Land of the Divine Beasts.
While staying in the Nine Netherworld, Mu Chen, with Nine Nether’s help, found a place to stay. He avoided contact with the outside world, so that he could cultivate in peace. He understood that he had indicated his own strength in the previous battle with Jiang Ya and Qin Xuan. However, for the ethnic groups in the Nine Nether Clan, it was a little hard for them to accept Mu Chen, who was an outsider, in this short amount of time.
Therefore, rather than feeling embarrassed, Mu Chen took the time to cultivate and strive for the divine blood of the Primordial Undying Bird to help Nine Nether in the Land of the Divine Beasts. After all, he came to the Nine Netherbird Clan not to obtain some so-called friendship, but only to help Nine Nether, nothing more.
Therefore, in the days that he spent in the Nine Netherworld, Mu Chen was never in contact with the people in the Nine Netherbird clan. However, Nine Nether often came during the week to talk to him about the progress and the things that had happened in the Land of the Divine Beasts.
Time rapidly passed in this peaceful manner and soon, ten days had gone by.
On the tenth day, the first rays of the sun scattered the clouds and shined on the fabulous Nine Nether Mountain. Mu Chen, who was sitting cross-legged in the house, suddenly open his eyes. A sharp color emerged in his black pupils.
He gazed out the window. At this time, the entire Nine Nether Mountain seemed to be boiling. The overwhelming sound of the wind was ringing through the sky. Obviously, the Land of the Divine Beasts had opened. For the entire Nine Netherbird Clan, it was a great event.
Immediately, with a sudden change of his look and a twist of his body, Mu Chen appeared directly in the courtyard outside the house. He saw that not far away, a beautiful figure was rushing towards him, finally stopping in the courtyard. Judging from the slender and sexy figure, naturally it was Nine Nether.
“Let’s go. The Land of the Divine Beasts is appearing soon.” When Nine Nether looked at Mu Chen, she had a beautiful and bright smile on her pretty face. After solving the scourge of the blood bond, Nine Nether had obviously relaxed quite a bit. She no longer needed to be the same as before, always worried from the bottom of the heart.
Mu Chen nodded with a smile. He headed to the sky without talking. Then, under Nine Nether’s lead, he quickly sprinted towards the top of the unparalleled Nine Nether Mountain peak.
In the course of the journey, there were countless lights whistling by. These were the people of the Nine Netherbird Clan who were rushing to the top of the mountain. Although the number of entries to the Land of the Divine Beasts was limited, this did not hinder the desire of these people to go to the Land of the Divine Beasts.
Mu Chen and Nine Nether quickly swept past and after ten minutes, entered the area above the mountain. Afterwards, they slowly floated down to the mountain’s peak.
At this time, the top of the mountain was already crowded with people. In the center-most square, Tianhuang Clan Leader was leading the elders to stand while holding hands. Beside them was Mandela. Unlike how they were towards Mu Chen, the Nine Netherbird Clan was extremely polite towards Mandela. After all, she was a real Upper Earthly Sovereign. With her strength, not only among the Nine Netherbird Clan, but even among the super top forces of the Great Thousand World, she could easily become an honored guest.
In front of Tianhuang Clan Leader, Mo Feng and Mo Ling had also arrived.
Under the gathering of countless eyes, Mu Chen and Nine Nether’s vision fell to Mo Feng. Mo Feng was indifferent to this. He was not looking at them and wore a cold look that did not care about anything. Mo Ling, however, gave Mu Chen a youthful and pretty smile.
Tianhuang Clan Leader saw the four people gathered together and nodded slightly. Then he looked at the sky and said, “The Land of the Divine Beasts will soon appear. When I open up the space with the elders, then the four of you will take the opportunity to enter.”
Mu Chen and the other three people nodded together as they listened.
Tianhuang Clan Leader looked at Mu Chen and said, “The Land of the Divine Beasts is in the void space. There is spatial turbulence that will certainly kill you if you are caught up in it. Since you have never entered the Land of the Divine Beast and have little understanding of it, you need to always stay close to Nine Nether after you enter.”
“Roger.” Mu Chen nodded. He had been in a lot of danger in the past few years, so he was also very clear about the dangers contained in the Land of the Divine Beasts. Naturally, he would not act rashly.
Seeing this, Tianhuang Clan Leader stopped talking and just looked up at the sky to wait for the best moment to start.
Mandela approached Mu Chen at this time and smiled. “When you enter the Land of the Divine Beasts, I will return to the Daluo Territory. If you came back successfully, the Nine Netherbird Clan will send you back to the North Territory.”
She paused and added, “After you leave, I will use the Starry Suppression Tower to find the Ancient Celestial Palace. I will try to give you some clear information when you return.”
She knew that the reason Mu Chen had come to the North Territory was because of the Great Solar Undying Body that was hidden in the Ancient Celestial Palace. Since she had received so much help from Mu Chen, she felt she should also help Mu Chen reach his goal.
“Thank you.”
Sure enough, as she expected, Mu Chen could not help but feel happy after hearing this. The Primordial Immortal Body was too important to him, so he had to find it in the Ancient Celestial Palace and obtain the Great Solar Undying Body no matter what.
“When receiving people’s money, we must always return the favor.” Mandela smiled but immediately she became serious again. “But I have to remind you in advance that if the Ancient Celestial Palace really appears, there will definitely chaos in Tianluo Continent. I don’t know how many forces will be coming for it at that time. The competition will be far beyond your imagination.
“And, you are not the only one who has their eyes on the evolutionary cultivation of the Great Solar Undying Body…”
Mu Chen’s eyes suddenly narrowed. Seeing Mandela’s serious look, he suddenly recalled some of the information she had said at the beginning… In this world, he was not the only one who practiced the Great Solar Undying Body.
There were also other people with opportunities who had obtained the cultivation method of the Great Solar Undying Body. They must be the most amazing people, and they would be the biggest obstacle to Mu Chen’s obtaining the Primordial Immortal Body.
This was because no matter how many people were cultivating the Great Solar Undying Body, ultimately there could only be one person who could evolve into the Primordial Immortal Body.
The competition in this journey would surpass Mu Chen’s imagination in terms of cruelty of competition and the survival of the fittest… This was a big opportunity for Mu Chen, but it was also a big crisis at the same time.
“Your strength is enough to be top notch in the younger generation in the North Territory, but it is not enough,” Mandela said seriously.
Mu Chen nodded. The North Territory was just a glimpse of the Tianluo Continent, not to mention other places. Even in the younger generation of the Nine Netherbird Clan, the strength of his Grade Six Sovereign level was not outstanding. Therefore, he naturally understood that with his current strength, it was not enough to fight for the opportunities in the Ancient Celestial Palace.
“By letting you go to the Land of the Divine Beast this time, I want you to seize the opportunity. In any case, you must cultivate your Dragon-Phoenix Body to the second level,” Mandela said.
“I understand.”
He nodded slowly at Mandela with a dignified look. If he could break through to Grade Seven Sovereign in the Land of the Divine Beasts, plus the second level of the Dragon-Phoenix Body, he would not have to feel afraid even he needed to face a Grade Eight Sovereign. Only with the strength of the Grade Eight Sovereign could one be qualified to be a strong person in the entire Tianluo Continent.
He knew that Mandela just wanted to remind him not to take things lightly. Even though he had not seen the opponents who practiced the Great Solar Undying Body, he could imagine that they must very amazing individuals. Otherwise, they would not be able to cultivate the Great Solar Undying Body to this level.
Seeing this, Mandela stopped talking and turned away.
Watching Mandela, his look became more dignified. He originally thought that as long as he found the Ancient Celestial Palace, he should be able to get the evolutionary cultivation method of the Great Solar Undying Body. However, Mandela had sounded the alarm. If his strength was not great enough, the law of evolution could be easily snatched by others, even if he found it.
“It seems that I have to gain something in the Land of the Divine Beasts.” The palm of Mu Chen’s hand gradually tightened, and his eyes became sharp. Even though the battles he was going to face would be even more cruel, in order to be able to get the evolutionary cultivation of the Great Solar Undying Body, he could only do his best now.
Weng!
Just when Mu Chen’s thoughts were settled, suddenly there was a storm brewing between the sky and the earth. When he quickly looked up, he saw that the space was like a rippling wave of water, with circles of ripples continuously diffusing.
As the ripples vibrated, there seemed to be countless ancient images full of prehistoric elements passing through the void.
Seeing this, Tianhuang Clan Leader, who had been preparing for a long time, suddenly screamed, “Attack!” Immediately, a light ray tens of thousands of meters wide directly shot out from his crown. Within the the light ray, an incomparably huge red bird figure was visible, burning with a heavenly flame that seemed as if it could burn out a world.
Pew! Pew!
The moment the Tianhuang Clan Leader attacked, the other elders of the Nine Netherbird Clan also immediately followed. As a result, lots of light rays rushed towards the sky at the moment and finally the bombarded at the void.
When the few Earthly Sovereigns attacked together, the space was actually slowly torn apart. Within the crack was only darkness, but there was an ancient wilderness gas leaking out.
When the gas spread, it seemed as if there were countless roars of beasts coming from that ancient place.
Veins appeared on Tianhuang Clan Leader’s arm. His eyes suddenly turned to Mu Chen and the others. He shouted, “Go!”
Mo Feng grabbed Mo Ling and dashed straight up. Nine Nether was also able to grasp Mu Chen’s arm, and both of them turned into lights before rushing towards the sky. Finally, they projected themselves without hesitation into the void that had been forcibly torn open.
Boom!
The moment Nine Nether and the others entered, the space that had been torn apart spurted out an extremely horrifying turbulence. Under the turbulent turmoil, the spiritual light ray condensed by the Earthly Sovereigns suddenly broke down.
“The space turbulence is so violent.”
Tianhuang Clan Leader and others stopped attacking together. Looking at the nonentity space that quickly disappeared, they could not help but sigh. Even with so many people, they could only tear apart the nonentity space of the Land of the Divine Beasts for such a short moment.
Tianhuang Clan Leader and other people looked up. Watching the place where Mu Chen and the others had disappeared, they could only sigh. In those places where competition was cruel, it was uncertain whether they would get the opportunity. In the past, there were times when the Nine Netherbird Clan themselves returned empty handed or even in ruin.
“We can only wait and hope that they can return safely this time.”
