The black blood pellet was suspended among them, exuding a terrifying blood aura. Its power was so exuberant that with just a sniff, the blood boiled in their bodies. Looking at this black blood pellet, not only was Mu Chen's gaze burning, but Kong Ling'er and the other's eyes were also full of heat. Their slightly trembling bodies revealed their inner excitement.
The excitement lasted for a moment, and then they began to come to their senses. Mu Chen took the lead, smiled, and said, "Now let's divide it as we agreed before. Do you have any objections?"
Kong Ling'er and the other two were reluctant in their hearts. After all, it was 40 percent of the blood pellet. The blood aura contained was enough to let them truly break through to God Grade Heavenly Sovereign. However, in spite of their reluctance, after seeing Mu Chen's astonishing fighting power previously, they did not dare to dishonor their promise, so they immediately nodded slightly.
Seeing this, Mu Chen clasped his hands together. As his spiritual power formed a whirlpool, a horrifying suction burst out. Suddenly, the blood pellet shivered, and streams of blood waves roared out into the whirlpool. Kong Ling'er and the other two also revealed their means and extracted the vast and endless blood aura from the blood pellet.
The extraction by the four people lasted a full 30 minutes before it gradually stopped. In front of them, a black blood pellet was suspended, emanating a blood aura. However, the one in front of Mu Chen, compared to the other three, was clearly superior.
Mu Chen looked at the black blood pellet and exclaimed, "It is worthy of being the Quasi-Holy Blood Essence. The blood aura is richer, beyond imagination." With this 40 percent blood pellet, Nine Nether would be able to complete her evolution this time.
"Well, Brother Mu, now that we have achieved our goal, we will not stay any longer." With a wave of her sleeves, Kong Ling'er collected the blood pellet that belonged to her. She smiled at Mu Chen, turned into a stream of light, and surged out crisply.
Lin Cang and Xiao Tian's gazes flickered as they looked at Mu Chen, and then they immediately followed. Nine Nether watched the three of them leave quickly, and then looked at Mu Chen and whispered, "These three guys, I'm afraid they don't have much good will. Shall we also leave at once?"
Mu Chen smiled, looked at the place where the three had disappeared, and said inexplicably, "No, we'll just wait here."
"Wait?" Nine Nether was stunned.
...
Lin Cang and Xiao Tian quickly caught up with Kong Ling'er in front of them, and then they looked back into the distance and asked, "We'll really leave that 40 percent to them?"
Kong Linger's pretty face was dull as she said, "If you have the confidence to rob them, go ahead."
Lin Cang and Xiao Tian froze. Mu Chen had shown some amazing fighting power. They really did not have the absolute confidence to snatch the blood pellet from his hands. However, they were really not willing to give up the biggest share to Mu Chen, either.
"You two fools, your greed will get you in trouble sooner or later," Kong Ling'er gently scolded, then her gaze flickered as she whispered, "We will stay away from this place for now, and then I will destroy the Void Spiritual Array from a distance. Then, Huang Xuanzhi will be released. He must have sensed the blood pellet in Mu Chen's hands, so he will find him. There will be a bloody fight between the two, and if they are injured, we will be able to benefit from it."
Lin Cang and Xiao Tian were suddenly overjoyed, as they obviously had not expected Kong Ling'er to have such a plan. The two laughed. "That's for the best. Let Mu Chen and Huang Xuanzhi fight to the death, then we will strike. We'll let them see who will have the last laugh!"
Kong Ling'er smirked, clearly satisfied with her plan. So what if Mu Chen and Huang Xuanzhi were both supreme talents? They would both fall into her trap.
Clap clap!
However, just as she smiled, suddenly applause rang out in front of them. All three of them were shocked and immediately raised their heads. They saw the sea water fluctuating in front of them, and a slender figure emanating endless pressure emerged from the sea before their eyes. It was Huang Xuanzhi, who had been trapped in the Void Spiritual Array!
"What a good plan." Huang Xuanzhi clasped his hands behind his back, smiling at the trio.
Kong Ling'er's face was green with rage as she exclaimed in disbelief, "Huang Xuanzhi! How… how did you get out of the Void Spiritual Array?!"
"I didn't get out. That spiritual array would be really troublesome if I fell into it." Huang Xuanzhi smiled and said, "But it is a pity that what you have trapped in the spiritual array is only one of my Spiritual Energy Manifestations."
"What?!" The three's eyes narrowed. They had put so much effort into the Void Spiritual Array but only trapped one of Huang Xuanzhi's Spiritual Energy Manifestations?!
"That Spiritual Energy Manifestation is not as simple as you think. It is made from my feathers and infused with my blood, and it has 50 percent of my strength." Huang Xuanzhi smiled as he gazed at the three. His glance was casual but made the three shiver with chills.
They paled. At this moment, they finally understood the difference between themselves and Huang Xuanzhi. Without hesitation, their spiritual power burst out as spiritual light swept through. Transforming into their original forms, they tore the sea apart and charged outside the Deification Pool. As long as they got out of the pool, Huang Xuanzhi could not do anything to them.
"Haha, I've been waiting for you for a long time. How could I let you escape?" Huang Xuanzhi chuckled, and in the next moment, golden light erupted as a huge golden phoenix burst into the sky. With wings spread out, it tore the sea water apart, covering the sun as it enveloped the three escaping figures.
Deep in the green sea.
Spiritual light formed a protective barrier around Mu Chen, barricading the sea water. He sat at the bottom of the sea, gently throwing the black blood pellet up and down, his gaze flickering slightly towards the distance.
"What are we doing here?" Nine Nether asked in wonder. This fellow hadn't given her the blood pellet but just sat there.
"Waiting for Huang Xuanzhi." Mu Chen stretched lazily.
"Huh?" Nine Nether was shocked and hurriedly said, "Isn't that guy trapped in the spiritual array?"
Mu Chen smiled and said, "It should be just his Spiritual Energy Manifestation. The guy is so cunning that I reckon he did it on purpose in order to make Kong Ling'er pay a great deal of blood and push the Blood Essence Divine Beasts up to Quasi-Holy rank. Then, he doesn't need to do anything except wait in the back for a shot."
Nine Nether frowned. She wondered if that were so, hadn't they fallen into Huang Xuanzhi's trap?
"If I'm not wrong, Huang Xuanzhi should be dealing with Kong Ling'er and the rest by now," Mu Chen said with a smile.
"So let's get out of the Deification Pool now," Nine Nether suggested.
"Why get out?" He threw the black blood pellet to Nine Nether and said, "This blood pellet can only let you complete your evolution. I'm interested in the remaining 60 percent of the blood pellet. If Huang Xuanzhi wants to wait for the final shot, why can't I, too? When he gets the 60 percent blood pellet, he will naturally come to me."
Nine Nether's jaw dropped. Others were hiding from Huang Xuanzhi, but this guy not only did not hide, but also intended to let Huang Xuanzhi help him steal the 60 percent blood pellet and then strike again. However, she also had to admit that, even in the face of such a strong enemy, Mu Chen was still laughing calmly. That was charismatic, indeed. This made her begin to understand that the youth in front of her was no longer the weak youth from before. Now, he was famous in the world, and his brilliance was comparable to those supreme talents.
"Well, it's all up to you whether we can have a great win or lose it all!" Nine Nether smiled gently.
If they won, they would be able to get a complete Quasi-Holy Blood Pellet. If they lost, they would not only lose the 40 percent blood pellet in their hands, but even her Undying Bird bloodline would be lost.
Mu Chen smiled and then closed his eyes, as if sleeping. Nine Nether sat beside him and did not disturb him. She stared at the black blood pellet in her palm. This silence lasted about 30 minutes, and then Mu Chen's closed eyes finally opened slowly. He looked ahead nonchalantly and said, "He's here."
Nine Nether's delicate body instantly tensed as her hands clenched.
As Mu Chen finished speaking, the sea swayed in front of him, and a figure stepped out of the water. With a casual wave of his hand, three weak figures were thrown out. Those three figures were Kong Ling'er and the other two. They were all pale, their spiritual power weak, as they had obviously been hit hard.
Leaving the three people aside, Huang Xuanzhi's golden gaze stayed on Mu Chen as he seemed to laugh. He said, "You really did not run."
"How could I run when someone came to deliver the whole blood pellet?" Mu Chen stretched lazily.
"Interesting." Huang Xuanzhi smiled, but there was no hint of amusement in his golden eyes. "You think of me as someone who will give you treasure? How very interesting. If you give me the blood pellet at this time and let me take her Undying Bird Bloodline, I will let you go safely." Looking at Mu Chen, Huang Xuanzhi said slowly, "If not, after today, the reputation you fought so hard to establish will become my stepping stone."
Mu Chen stood up and smiled at Huang Xuanzhi, saying, "Cut the crap. If you want to take away Nine Nether's bloodline in front of me, I am afraid you're not worthy to do so."
Huang Xuanzhi nodded as his gaze gradually returned to indifference. Golden light surged in his eyes as his wings fluttered. A murderous intent emanated and set off an endless tsunami. "It's a pity. If that's the case, then I'll have to destroy you."
