Buzz!
When the chaotic light shot into Mu Chen’s Celestial Spirit Cover, his huge body vibrated fiercely. The next moment, spirit light emanated from within all the pores in his body. The spiritual power contained in the spirit light was so strong that as soon as it left his body, it became rain that fell amid the chaos.
That was obviously because the spiritual energy in Mu Chen’s body had reached its maximum capacity, and his body could no longer contain it, so to protect itself, his body sprayed out some spiritual energy. However, this kind of spurt was like a drop in the ocean compared to the infinite power of the spirit.
Snap!
Therefore, cracks appeared on Mu Chen’s huge body and quickly spread. In just a few seconds, his body was like cracked porcelain, and he cut a sorry figure. However, Mu Chen was calm like always. He knew his body had already reached its limit.
“Let the body break if the limit is reached. Stand firm between intact and broken to form the body of a Heavenly Sovereign,” he whispered, his black eyes filled with determination. He did not care about the dangers of his body breaking. In the next moment, he made a seal and stopped suppressing the spiritual power, allowing it to riot.
Buzz!
Thousands of spirit lights burst out violently from the cracks in Mu Chen’s body. The light gradually expanded, and after a moment, a loud bang rang out.
Bang!
Mu Chen’s massive torso exploded, but blood did not spatter out. Instead, it turned into powder. The powder floated quietly, shining with crystal light. Millions of light flecks floated for a while, and then a light breeze blew the countless spiritual light flecks, trying to reshape them.
As time went by, the spiritual light powder gradually gathered, and a shadow loomed in it, as if the powder was going to rebuild flesh and blood.
Boom!
However, at this time, amid the chaos, the sound of strange vibrations could be heard. It sounded extremely eerie. The sound caused the rebuilding flesh and blood to vibrate. Although the physical body had shattered, Mu Chen’s soul still existed. He also sensed the sound of the vibrations and immediately looked up.
In between the chaos and the shaking void, lacquered black clouds rushed out with black light surging within. The clouds were continuously absorbing the light of chaos, becoming more and more deep and mysterious.
Mu Chen looked at the black clouds, and his heart filled with fear. At the same time, a sobering thought hit him. Is this the Heavenly Sovereign Calamity?!
According to rumor, breaking through the sky obstacle would bring disaster, and the disaster was called the Heavenly Sovereign Calamity. This disaster was extremely horrifying. Even a real Heavenly Sovereign would be afraid of it.
This spells trouble. Mu Chen sighed inwardly. The Heavenly Sovereign Calamity absorbed the chaotic light, and its power seemed to have become even more horrifying. He was at the critical moment of physical reshaping, and if it was destroyed, the opportunity for a breakthrough would be lost. There was no room for mistakes.
Crash!
As Mu Chen was waiting, the black clouds moved across the heavens, and a stream of black water flowed down from the sky. The water’s flow seemed to be light, but when it fell, even the void was crushed.
Seeing this, Mu Chen’s gaze turned somber. His flesh that was gradually being rebuilt emitted purplish-gold light rays. A huge Immortal Golden Body emerged and made a seal, and 300 Immortal God Runes appeared out of thin air, forming a purple-gold wall above it.
Boom!
The black water fell on the purple-gold wall, and the wall trembled violently. Every drop of black water was as heavy as a mountain, and all those drops fell with the force of 1,000,000 mountains. Its power was truly terrible.
Under the impact of the black current, a crack appeared in the purple-gold wall, but fortunately, it did not shatter, and it resisted until the black water disappeared.
“What an amazing Heavenly Sovereign Calamity!” Seeing this, Mu Chen was shocked. It was just the beginning, and it had almost destroyed the defense of his 300 Immortal God Runes. How much worse could it get?
Mu Chen was afraid and dared not delay, immediately urging the Immortal Golden Body to summon more Immortal God Runes, repairing the purple-gold wall which was about to shatter.
At that time, the black clouds rolled in again. In the next moment, the temperature suddenly rose, and a fireball descended from the sky. The fireball was black and looked weak, but Mu Chen dared not let down his guard. The restored purple-gold wall exuded golden light.
A black fireball whizzed down and finally landed on the purple-gold wall, but surprisingly, there was no earth-shattering explosion, because Mu Chen saw that the fireball was like a corrosive venom, rapidly melting the purple-gold wall. Mu Chen quickly used his mind to throw the purple-gold wall away. In a heartbeat, the fireball melted the purple-gold wall into a puddle.
Bang!
The fireball had just fallen, and Mu Chen didn’t even have time to admire its power when the black cloud rolled in again. This time, a powerful sound could be heard. A black meteorite slowly emerged from the black cloud and rapidly whistled down.
Mu Chen looked at the black meteorite whizzing down, knowing that the meteorite must be destroyed. Using his mind, the Immortal Golden Body burst with golden light and countless Immortal God Runes condensed in its hands, forming a giant golden spear.
Whoosh!
The Immortal Golden Body threw the golden spear, and it violently shot out and hit the black meteorite, shaking it a little. However, the spear was crushed to powder under the impact of the crash.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Immediately, a series of giant purple-gold spears continued to rise up into the sky, and although they were destroyed by the meteorite every time, they managed to slow down the black meteorite’s descent.
At that time, Mu Chen again urged the Immortal Golden Body, and numerous Immortal God Runes rose up into the sky and formed a giant purple-gold net.
Boom! Boom!
The black meteorite fell and shattered the giant purple-gold net, but parts of it had dissolved from the impact, so when the black meteorite reached the space above Mu Chen, its volume had been reduced by nearly half.
Just then, the Immortal Golden Body rushed up, and clenching its giant fist that was emitting golden rays, it landed a heavy blow on the black meteorite.
Bang!
An earth-shattering shockwave was released, and the black meteorite exploded into pieces.The Immortal Golden Body was hurled backwards, and cracks emerged on the giant fist.
After the black meteorite fell, the black clouds in the sky fell silent, but Mu Chen tensed in anticipation, knowing that this was the calm before the storm.
Bang!
Black lightning suddenly tore apart the layer of clouds and fell over the land. Each flash of lightning contained an extremely horrifying power of destruction.
When Mu Chen saw this, his expression changed, and he didn’t hesitate. Yelling a command in his head, the Immortal Golden Body emitted golden light, and a huge golden lotus was formed, guarding them within it.
Boom! Boom!
The black lightning continued to fall and slammed on the golden lotus. Each bombardment caused the latter to tremble violently, and the petals shattered one-by-one.
This time, the attack was fast and furious, and endless like a hurricane. Even though Mu Chen was using the strongest defense, it would still be like a boat in the middle of a hurricane that could be destroyed at any time.
Boom!
Lightning resounded continuously, and the violent bombardments lasted for a long time. Although Mu Chen was urging the Immortal Golden Body to repair the Immortal Golden Lotus, it was still unsustainable. Therefore, at a certain stage, the Immortal Golden Lotus finally reached its limit and exploded.
As the golden lotus shattered, many flashes of black lightning slammed into the Immortal Golden Body, causing its surface to crack. However, the good thing was that the black lightning was gradually dissipating. Clearly, Mu Chen had survived another wave.
The lightning dissipated, and even Mu Chen couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief. He was obviously shocked by the power of the Heavenly Sovereign Calamity. It was no wonder there were so few Heavenly Sovereigns. The calamity was enough to discourage masters who wanted to reach this level.
“Rumor has it that the Heavenly Sovereign Calamity has four waves of attack. It should be over by now,” Mu Chen muttered to himself. If more waves of attacks were to come, not just him, but even a true Heavenly Sovereign would not be able to withstand them.
Buzz.
However, just as he finished that thought, he felt a restlessness in the black clouds. He quickly looked up and saw all the black clouds retreating in one direction. After a few moments, the clouds disappeared, replaced by a black hole. The black hole was suspended quietly in the air, and it finally floated down slowly, locking onto Mu Chen.
“D*mn! How can there be a fifth wave?!”
The black hole descended, making Mu Chen’s heart leap in fright, because he could feel the tremendous power contained within the black hole. That kind of power was scarier than a full-scale attack by the Blood Demon King.
Mu Chen was shocked. Although there were some Heavenly Sovereign Calamities that surpassed four waves, he did not expect to be so unlucky as to meet one. The hollow black hole seemed to have taken shape because it had absorbed too much of the chaotic light in this place, and that power was indescribable.
“This is really dangerous.”
