Chapter 1398: The Power of a Heavenly Sovereign
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The light of chaos scattered in the sky. A young figure stood in the air as his robes fluttered in the wind. His handsome face glimmered with a jade-like light, and his dark eyes were as deep as the stars. People could not help but look and be lost in them, as they found it hard to extricate themselves.
The moment when Mu Chen appeared, Bai Susu and Reverend White Dragon stared unblinkingly, as they clearly felt the difference in him. Mu Chen’s spiritual power in the past was majestic. Even though it had not been triggered, it still emitted a terrible spiritual pressure, causing people to feel oppressed.
However, Mu Chen no longer emanated that kind of pressure. He smiled and stood in the air, and it was as if his spiritual energy had completely dissipated. There were no spiritual fluctuations at all. While they could see Mu Chen standing there, there was no aura at all in their perception, just nothingness. Thus, even if they launched a violent offensive attack in Mu Chen’s direction, they wouldn’t even be able to touch his sleeve.
They looked at each other as shock crept up their faces. Of course, they didn’t think that Mu Chen’s spiritual energy had really dissipated, now that they could not sense his presence. There was only one explanation, and that was the gap between them and Mu Chen had reached an unsurpassable point. Mu Chen had successfully crossed the Heavenly Barrier and stepped into the realm of Heavenly Sovereign!
“Did the lord really succeed?” Bai Susu murmured, her eyes full of shock. Although she was unfamiliar with the Heavenly Sovereign realm, from the gap between the Blood Demon Emperor and the Blood Demon King, she truly knew what a great gulf existed between those two realms.
A big part of the reason why she had always believed in Mu Chen was because she has no other choice. Mu Chen was her last hope, so in order not despair to the point of collapse, she had to hold onto that hope tightly. She made herself believe that glimmer of hope could really save them.
However, in her suppressed rationality, Bai Susu did not have much hope that Mu Chen would break through to Heavenly Sovereign. Thus, when she saw Mu Chen, she was utterly shocked.
“Truly a talent favored by the heavens.” Reverend White Dragon sighed deeply. As a man greatly knowledgeable about the Great Thousand World, he was well aware of how amazing this achievement was. Such a gift was truly marvelous. At the same time, he was immensely glad. Who would have thought that the inadvertently formed good fate in the past actually could fulfill his wish?
As Bai Susu and the others were stunned by Mu Chen’s success, the Blood Demon Emperor’s face was dark. His original condescending demeanor had dissipated completely. The moment Mu Chen stepped into the rank of Heavenly Sovereign, the Blood Demon Emperor knew that his original advantage had disappeared.
“D*mn it, if I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have withheld my full strength!” The Blood Demon Emperor was filled with regret. In his previous clash with Mu Chen, although he did not have mercy, he also did not exert his means to the extreme. Otherwise, with his class strength as a Demon Emperor, no matter how many means Mu Chen had, he wouldn’t get any advantage. Not to mention, he could have trapped him to win the most critical breakthrough time.
Mu Chen saw the Blood Demon Emperor’s sullen look. He knew what he was thinking and immediately smiled. “There’s no use for regret now.”
The Blood Demon Emperor’s eyes twitched as he inhaled a deep breath and suppressed the upwelling emotion in his heart. “Even if you step into the rank of Heavenly Sovereign, you won’t be able to win. But now you do have the right to negotiate face to face with me, and if you agree, I can lead my tribe out of this plane.”
Mu Chen smirked and replied, “Isn’t it a bit too late for you to want to leave now?” He lifted his gaze, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes as if it contained the whole of the universe. “You have massacred and caused much bloodshed here. Did you think we would just forget about it?”
The Blood Demon Emperor’s eyes flashed with a chilling glint as he raised his head and glared at Mu Chen fiercely. “I just don’t want to fight with you and cause damage to both parties. That is why I backed down. Do you really think I’m afraid of you?!”
Mu Chen looked at his fierce appearance as he smiled nonchalantly. He conjured up seals with one hand as the space fluctuated. A black and a white silhouette then walked out slowly from the space. “In that case, I welcome your advice.”
Three Mu Chens stared at the Blood Demon Emperor coldly as the space around them rippled. As the ripples spread, it seemed as if the whole world was shaking. Reverend White Dragon, Bai Susu, and the crowd gulped in apprehension. After a long time, Reverend White Dragon just gasped as he exclaimed, “What a terrifying Super Power Art.”
Although Mu Chen’s Qi into Trinity had been tough in the past, it was not too shocking. Now that he had ascended to Heavenly Sovereign and put this skill into play, people would truly feel frightened, for when this skill was executed, it manifested three true Heavenly Sovereigns!
Looking at the three identical Mu Chens in the sky, even the Blood Demon Emperor’s eyes were filled with fear. Originally, he thought that Mu Chen’s clones could only manifest into ranks lower than that of a Heavenly Sovereign. The scene before him truly terrified him. If this played out, it meant that he would face three Heavenly Sovereigns! There was no doubt he was bound to lose this battle.
Whoosh!
Therefore, with a wave of his sleeve, a torrent of blood suddenly emerged, raging in heaven and earth. It charged towards the three Mu Chens, but his form transformed into a bloody ray of light and retreated. It seemed that he was going to run away without fighting.
Mu Chen looked at the Blood Demon Emperor retreating without hesitation and laughed sarcastically. He stretched out his hand and held it against the torrential sea of blood, only to see that the sky and earth were shining with light. The space in front of him was broken apart, as if it had formed a huge mouth. He swallowed the sea of blood and threw it into another void. At the same time, his other palm grasped at the Blood Demon Emperor in the distance.
Bang!
The world shattered into tens of thousands of huge black holes. The countless space debris transformed into an invisible force and then into a massive, transparent space palm, grasping the Blood Demon Emperor within.
Boom!
Endless bloody light rose into the sky, and in the next moment, a massive crimson Demonic Shadow condensed. It shocked the space palm and escaped.
Whoosh!
At this point, however, the white-robed Mu Chen appeared above it and pointed in the air.
Whir!
Endless gales of wind gathered and turned into a huge pillar of wind. The wind column seemed to have materialized into a tangible substance and descended fiercely, suppressing the Blood Demon Emperor. The crimson Demonic Shadow roared as it blasted out Demonic Fists and clashed brutally with the wind column.
Bang!
However, at the moment of contact, the wind column suddenly dispersed into hundreds of millions of spatial gales. As each gale passed, it tore wounds out of the red Demonic Shadow, causing it to howl in pain.
Mu Chen was a Heavenly Sovereign now, and every attack was far more terrifying than it had ever been. It was obviously not possible for the Blood Demon Emperor to be as relaxed as before.
Whoosh!
When the white-robed Mu Chen dragged down the crimson Demonic Shadow, the space in front of it was distorted. A black-robed figure stepped out of the air, and the black-robed Mu Chen looked indifferent.
Without a word, his body burst out with a glittering glow of jade light. He looked crystal-clear, and even his flesh and blood had transformed into white jade. This was the true body of a Heavenly Sovereign. Once triggered, one would be able to control the power of heaven and earth with every move. With the flick of a finger, he could cause the world to collapse.
The black-robed Mu Chen triggered his Heavenly Sovereign body. He dealt out a fluttering blow that seemed to have no power. However, when it surged out, it ignored the space in front of them and landed on the Blood Demon Emperor’s chest.
Boom!
As the blow fell, the world vibrated violently. The crimson Demonic Shadow suffered a huge impact as he flew back. Amid his wails of agony, the shadow erupted.
Puff.
The shadow crumbled, a bloody beam of light shot out, and he spewed out a mouthful of blood. Apparently, this was the Blood Demon Emperor’s real body. In this short battle, the Blood Demon Emperor lost completely without any countervailing force.
Three silhouettes fell from the sky and occupied three positions around him, entrapping him. Their indifferent gazes swept across, causing the Blood Demon Emperor to feel cold all over.
The Blood Demon Emperor looked at Mu Chen’s eyes filled with murderous intent, and he knew that the latter would not let him go today. Thus, his gaze gradually became vicious.
“Do you really think you’re going to win for sure?” His voice was malicious as he glared eerily at Mu Chen.
Mu Chen’s eyes narrowed as bright spiritual light condensed on his fingertips. He did not intend to waste his breath and was ready to deal the fatal blow.
Whoosh!
However, the Blood Demon Emperor bit the tip of his tongue, and a mouthful of pure blood spewed out and soared straight into the sky. It was as if a crimson Token Talisman had been summoned in his blood. It exploded, causing the space to erupt.
“Demon Summoning Talisman, Demons Descend!” As his chilling voice rang out, the void became dark as it formed a passage of space. At the end of the passage, an incomparably evil aura surged.
Seeing this, Mu Chen’s gaze turned grave. The end of the space passage led to the territory of the Extraterritorial Race!
