The Great Ruler

The silhouette enveloped in an ominous aura fled out in the desolate forest as if he was being pursued by something terrifying.

But just when he was about to flee out of the forest, a fist of Spiritual Energy descended from the sky and crashed against that silhouette.

The ground collapsed with cracks swiftly spreading out in the shape of a web. By the time the fist dissipated, it only left a pile of meat on the ground without any vitality.

A silhouette appeared in the sky with Mu Chen indifferently sweeping a glance at it before pulling his sight back. Two silhouettes flew over from the distance and stopped beside him; it was Qing Shuang and Qing Ling.

“The numbers of the Fiend Clans are increasing.” Qing Shuang knitted her brows. They have encountered several waves of them in just half a day. But fortunately, there wasn’t anyone comparable to the commander of the Flame Demon Clan again. Thus, practically all the Fiend Clans that they’ve encountered fell in their hands.

“We’re approaching the central region.” Mu Chen raised his head. He could sense a faint and boundless fluctuation coming from that direction. Evidently, that’s their objective!

Qing Shuang and Qing Ling’s faces turned grave upon hearing his words. They knew that there must be an intense battle waiting for them.

“Let’s go, hurry up.” Mu Chen waved his hand and increased his speed. He wasn’t afraid of the intense battle that he would soon face. On the contrary, he was worried that someone might take a step ahead of him.

When the two ladies saw how impatient Mu Chen was, they helplessly shook their heads as they followed up.

As the three of them rushed over, they no longer encountered any Fiend Clans. On the contrary, they started to meet other teams, most of them were in a pathetic state. They must have undergone battles with the Fiend Clans.

However, Mu Chen paid no attention to those teams, but focused on his journey.

Under their full speed, another two hours passed before their speed gradually slowed down and they looked up ahead with grave expressions.

Qing Shuang and Qing Ling had also directed their gazes over and saw a black altar by the plains that was the source of the terrifying fluctuation.

“Someone is fighting over there!” Directing his gaze over, Mu Chen’s eyes narrowed. He could still clearly sense a powerful fluctuation exploding around the altar, causing space to tremble.

“Looks like there are teams that arrived here first.” Knitting his brows, Mu Chen turned into a streak of light and moved out.

A few minutes later, he appeared not too far away from the black altar. As he got closer, he realised the sheer size of this altar.

There were four ancient stone pillars at the top of the altar, blazing with flames that seemed to be Sovereign Spiritual Liquid. They emitted a fearful sensation.

As for the placement of them, it was one pillar in the center with three others around it. There’s a grey coffin before the center pillar, bound with chains made of flames that tightly wrapped around it.

Mu Chen felt that the coffin was akin to a black hole, devouring everything. Anything that approached would be swallowed; it was extremely ominous.

“Could the soul fragment of the Sky Monarch be in that coffin?” Mu Chen stared at the coffin with fear flicking in his eyes.

“It’s Xuan Luo, Mo Xin and the rest!” Qing Ling suddenly exclaimed as she pointed in another direction of the altar, where powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuations were exploding forth.

The surroundings of the altar had been turned into a chaotic battlefield. The two factions were gathering over from every direction before they clashed together into an intense battle.

Xuan Luo and Mo Xin had attracted the most attention. The powerful fluctuations bursting from their bodies had surpassed everyone in the Great Thousand World.

But even so, they still met a powerful enemy.

The enemy who Mo Xin was facing wasn’t unfamiliar to Mu Chen’s party. It was the commander of the Flame Demon Clan that they had previously fought. On the other hand, Xuan Luo’s opponent had a skinny silhouette, but his body was the most unusual one. His arms were actually two long pitch-black blades with cold lights flickering on them. Every brandish could leave a cut in space, showing how sharp they were.

“That should be one of the Fiend Clans’ 32 Major Clans, the Blade Demon Clan!” Qing Shuang solemnly said. As someone from the Ancient Buddha Clan, she naturally had information regarding the Fiend Clans.

“The 32 Major Clans?” Mu Chen narrowed his eyes. Shi Tianyou, the Prince of the Corpse Demon Clan, whom he had previously encountered, was also part of the 32 Major Clans.

“That expert of the Blade Demon Clan is also terrifying.” Mu Chen’s gaze flashed with graveness. To be able to fight on par with Xuan Luo and not fall back, the strength of that expert wasn’t any weaker than that commander of the Flame Demon Clan! The two of them were at the Pinnacle Perfected Earth Sovereign Realm.

“Let’s make our move as well!” Qing Shuang said. Even though the battle started, their mission was to protect the altar and not allow the Fiend Clans to destroy it.

Mu Chen nodded his head and dived into the battlefield without any hesitation. The two clones also appeared by his side and the three of them charged through the battlefield, slaughtering their way across.

On the other hand, Qing Shuang and Qing Ling joined hands and slaughtered those Fiend Clans that were left out.

Mu Chen swept everything in his path, causing a considerable commotion with the experts from the two factions all looking at him.

“Hmph, that fellow is finally here!” Mo Xin coldly snorted as he glanced at Mu Chen’s direction.

“It’s that fellow!” The commander of the Flame Demon Clan slightly changed as he looked at Mu Chen with fear.

“You dare to divert your attention while facing me?” But when the commander of the Flame Demon Clan got distracted, a cold sneer resounded as Mo Xin’s palms became shrouded with an extremely overbearing black and cold aura. It caused even the surrounding space to be instantly frozen.

Mo Xin’s palm ferociously struck against the chest of the Flame Demon Clan, causing the latter to be blown out with a layer of black ice spreading out on his body.

However, the ice lasted briefly before it was dissolved by the black flames that burst out from the commander of the Flame Demon Clan. At the same time, a roar also echoed from the commander.

“Flame Demon Status!” Black flames gathered over and formed into a massive demonic figure behind the commander of the Flame Demon Clan. Looking at that demonic figure from afar, it looked like an apocalyptic flame demon that emanated a shocking pressure. Sensing those fluctuations, Mo Xin’s expression turned cold and his hands joined together to form seals without any hesitation and barked, “Great Netherworld Celestial Body!”

A black cold aura whistled and formed another massive figure behind Mo Xin, emanating a cold aura that could freeze anything in the world. The cold aura was incredibly eerie, even the Spiritual Energy in the body would be frozen upon being invaded by it.

“The Great Netherworld Celestial Body that’s 25th on the 99 Rankings of Sovereign Immortal Bodies?” Mu Chen’s gaze trembled when he felt that fluctuation. Mo Xin was, indeed, worth being the Young Master of the Ancient Buddha Clan. That level of Sovereign Immortal Body wasn’t your ordinary one.

When the battle in Mo Xin’s direction climaxed, a terrifying fluctuation wreaked havoc in another direction.

The expert of the Blade Demon Clan, who was facing Xuan Luo, had a torrential demonic aura surging behind him and formed into a black blade that was roughly a thousand feet hovering behind him.

When that demonic blade appeared, it violently devoured the killing aura in this battlefield. In just a few breaths’ time, the black blade showed signs of turning crimson.

“It’s your honor for being able to die in the hands of the Sky Demonic Blade of my clan!” The expert of the Blade Demon Clan looked at Xuan Luo with a sharp gaze and spoke out in a hoarse voice.

“Haha, really?” Facing the expert of the Blade Demon Clan, Xuan Luo faintly smiled with a myriad foot of lustre burst from his body that seemed like a blazing sun.

As the blazing sun melted, it had formed into a massive silhouette of a few myriad feet behind him.

That silhouette was made of light that seemed dazzling with a hundred foot-high crystallised pagoda that emanated a divine lustre.

Looking at that silhouette, Mu Chen couldn’t help narrowing his eyes as he muttered, “This is... the rank 17 Great Pagoda Celestial Body?”

Legend has it that the Great Pagoda Celestial Body was born from one of the five Primal Celestial Bodies, the Endless Radiance Body, which was being kept in the Ancient Buddha Clan!

That Xuan Luo had great ambitions!
