The Great Ruler

As the two of them finished their words, space instantly collapsed with them in the centre. The two massive pressures caused the Great Thousand Pavilion to lightly tremble.

However, they had controlled their moves, concentrating the power around themselves. They did not want to destroy the Great Thousand Pavilion since it was a territory of the Great Thousand Palace, even their Ancient Buddha Clan had to give a face to the Great Thousand Palace.

But even so, the pressure from two Heavenly Sovereigns sweeping out could even cause a Perfected Earth Sovereign to be greatly terrified.

“This old man will see who can snatch him away from my hands!” Seeing the two fellows being so overbearing, Celestial Chi Yan was angered before he sneered. The pressure around him started to rise as a crimson Spiritual Energy boiled like magma, causing the temperature in the Great Thousand Pavilion to rise.

Celestial Chi Yan stood before Mu Chen, completely resisting the pressure coming from Mo Yin and Hei Guang.

Seeing that Celestial Chi Yan was determined to protect Mu Chen, Mo Yin, and Hei Guang’s faces turned dark. However, they showed no intention of stopping. They had already made their decision to capture Mu Chen, no matter what!

‘The Eight-Divisional Pagoda can’t fall in the hands of Mu Chen!’

With their thoughts, the two of them exchanged a look and Hei Guang took a step forth before pushing a palm out in the direction of Celestial Chi Yan. Although that palm might seem gentle, black Spiritual Energy frantically condensed in his palm, forming into a black sun.

The black sun sight did not emit any lustre. Although it looked small, everyone could sense the terrifying energy contained within the black sun.

If the black sun was thrown out without control, all of Sacred Abyss City would be instantly reduced to a massive crater...

The move of a Heavenly Sovereign had unleashed unimaginable destructive prowess.

Seeing the black sun in Hei Guang’s palm, Celestial Chi Yan squinted his eyes and did not dare to delay. His face swiftly turned red as he widened his mouth and a sprout of flame gushed out that seemed like magma.

Everyone knew that Hei Guang and Celestial Chi Yan had kept their powers under control. Otherwise, that flame sprout could turn a myriad mile into an ocean of flames.

The black sun and fire sprout clashed together, but did not create any huge commotion. However, everyone could see that the two forces were trying to erode each other with the space that they’ve continuously made contact against crumbling...

Just as Hei Guang and Celestial Chi Yan faced each other, Mo Yin coldly looked at Mu Chen with an eerie smile before he walked into the direction of Mu Chen.

Celestial Chi Yan’s face changed upon seeing that, but he was currently facing Hei Guang. If he had retreated, then Hei Guang would be able to obtain the upper hand and suppress him.

“Your Ancient Buddha Clan is too overbearing! Are you trying to provoke my Ancient Spirit Clan?!” Celestial Chi Yan solemnly said.

Mo Yin did not stop as he sneered, “Chi Yan, you’re overestimating yourself. You do not represent the Ancient Spirit Clan!”

As he spoke, his cold gaze looked at Mu Chen like a hawk eyeing its prey. “This old man will see how you are going to flee today.”

Xuan Luo and Mo Yin’s faces were flushing with joy at this scene. When they looked at Mu Chen, their eyes turned into pity. ‘So what if you’ve obtained the ancestor’s acknowledgment? In the end, you still won’t be able to protect the Eight-Divisional Pagoda!’

Looking at Mo Yin coming in his direction, Mu Chen showed no fear, since he knew that showing concern wouldn’t work.

He clenched his fists and protected Luo Li with a cold light gathering in his eyes.

If it was before the Primordial Sacred Abyss, his options would only be running upon encountering a Heavenly Sovereign. But he’s currently a Quasi-Perfected Earth Sovereign, and he even obtained the Black Dragon Army and the Eight-Divisional Pagoda as trump cards.

With those trump cards, if he risked his life, Mo Yin wouldn’t be able to kill him so easily.

If this old dog really wanted to force him, then Mu Chen would let him know that trying to treat him like a pushover had a price to pay!

“Matron He!” But as the cold light gathered in Mu Chen’s eyes, and just when he was about to throw out all the trump cards he had to face Elder Mo Yin, Wen Qingxuan suddenly shouted.

A silhouette appeared before Mu Chen, donned in red robes. It was Matron He of the Wen Clan!

She stood before Mu Chen and coldly looked at Elder Mo Yin. As her sleeves fluttered, sounds of a splashing river resounded from her body.

Elder Mo Yin finally stopped and his face turned dark. Staring at Matron He, his voice solemnly said, “The Wen Clan wants to interfere in the matters of my Ancient Buddha Clan?”

Matron He raised her eyelids faintly said, “Although my Wen Clan doesn’t have as a deep foundation as your Ancient Buddha Clan, we know how to repay our debts. This brat has helped us greatly, and I will naturally not stand by to watch you old shameless bastards bully him.”

Rage surged in Mo Yin’s eyes, but he wasn’t angry. He took a deep breath before darkly looking at Mu Chen. “I never expected that there would be quite a bit of people trying to protect you here.”

Mu Chen also stared back at Mo Yin with killing intent flashing in his eyes.

“But it’s a pity... it’s futile, no matter how many people try to help you!” A mocking smile suddenly appeared on Mo Yin’s face before he turned around and cupped his fists towards the outside of the Great Thousand Pavilion. “Ninth Elder, please make a move.”

“Sigh...” A sigh resounded from outside the Great Thousand Pavilion before everyone could see a hunchback old man holding only a black staff who slowly entered the gate.

His face was skinny, and his eyes were black. He took a slow step out, and instantly appeared beside Mo Yin.

That old man did not have any powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuations around him. But when he appeared, the faces of Celestial Chi Yan and Matron He uncontrollably changed.

“The Ninth Elder of the Ancient Buddha Clan, Mo You?!” Celestial Chi Yan’s solemn voice resounded.

“An Immortal Heavenly Sovereign?!” Matron He had squinted her eyes as well. The Ancient Buddha Clan even dispatched an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign to capture Mu Chen?

That sort of figure held great authority, even in the Ancient Buddha Clan. But he had been dispatched just to capture a Quasi-Perfected Earth Sovereign?

The Great Thousand Pavilion went into an uproar again and many Demon Slayers looked at Mu Chen with shock. Their eyes were filled with pity. Mu Chen really knew how to cause trouble. He even managed to get so many Heavenly Sovereigns to fight over him...

Mu Chen’s gaze had turned dark, since he also did not expect that Hei Guang and Mo Yin would be so cautious. To capture him, they have even invited an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign!

“You’re the sinner?” The old man with the black staff looked at Mu Chen and he spoke without any ripples in his voice.

“It looks like the words of your Grand Elder aren’t useful in the Ancient Buddha Clan.” Mu Chen replied.

From Qing Shuang, he had heard of the deal that his mother had formed with the Grand Elder of the Ancient Buddha Clan. But now, Heavenly Sovereigns were popping out one after another, intending to disregard the agreement.

“An emergency holds greater authority, and I believe that the Grand Elder will be able to understand this.”

The Elder named Mo You said, “As long as you hand the Eight-Divisional Pagoda over, this old man can let you leave.”

Mu Chen’s face was indifferent as he shook his head. A stone talisman appeared in his hand; it was the one given to him by the Martial Ancestor and it looked like he might have to resort to it.

Facing a Spirit Heavenly Sovereign, he could still throw out all his trump cards and try to fight. But as for an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign... it wasn’t possible unless he could control all of the Black Dragon Army.

“Since you’re stubborn, then this old man can only bully the young.” Seeing Mu Chen’s refusal, Mo You sighed. The black staff in his hand gently knocked on the ground and a black halo flew out from the staff. It had immediately sealed space. It was so much so that even the Spiritual Energy between the heavens and earth have been sealed.

Mu Chen also felt that restriction and pursed his lips. He suddenly exerted force on his hand to crush the talisman and call the Martial Ancestor over.

But in that instant, when he wanted to crush the stone talisman, a teacup suddenly flew over and smashed against the halo, causing it to shatter.

This sudden change had also caused Mo You to be stunned. After that, he slowly raised his head and looked at the counter of the Great Thousand Pavilion. A grey-robed elder was slowly walking out.

It was the person in charge of this division of the Great Thousand Palace.

“Isn’t your Ancient Buddha Clan a little too much...” The grey-robed elder slowly walked to Mu Chen’s side and lazily said.

Mo You knitted his brows. “The Great Thousand Palace wants to interfere in this matter?”

Although the Ancient Buddha Clan was one of the five Ancient Clans, the Great Thousand Palace held a high position in the Great Thousand World and wasn’t afraid of their Ancient Buddha Clan.

“This is a matter of our clan. I’m afraid that the Great Thousand Palace will be breaking the rules by interfering in this matter.” Mo You slowly said. Although the Great Thousand Palace was powerful, they also had rules, they weren’t allowed to participate in the matters of other forces.

“It’s not us that’s trying to break the rules, but you guys.” The grey-robed elder shook his head before turning to Mu Chen. His gaze was a little weird before he helplessly sighed and stretched his hand out. “Hand your Demon Slayer Token to me.”

Mu Chen was briefly stunned before taking out the golden glittering Demon Slayer Token and placed it in the hand of the grey-robed elder.

The grey-robed elder held onto the Demon Slayer Token and smiled towards Mo You. “Trying to touch a Demon Slayer King of our Great Thousand Palace in our territory. Aren’t you guys the ones breaking the rules?”
