The Great Ruler

Vroom.

The aftermath of the sound waves’ collision gradually drifted away, but the sea around Spiritual Jade Island was still stormy, as if it were the end of the world. Lion King Gu had a gloomy face as he stood on the Heavenly Lion statue. Mu Chen’s amazing fighting power had shocked him, and it stirred up a strong urge in him to kill Mu Chen.

Although Mu Chen had a powerful mother, Qing Yanjing, he had not received any cultivation resources from the Pagoda Divine Clan. However, he could still achieve this amazing level at his age. Therefore, regarding talent, Mu Chen might not be worse than Xuan Luo, whom they claimed was a rare instance among the Pagoda Divine Clan. If Mu Chen was really able to return to the Pagoda Divine Clan one day, he would inevitably become their most powerful opponent in competing for clan leader.

A thick killing intent poured out from Lion King Gu’s eyes. He took a deep breath, and without hesitation, formed a seal with his hands.

Boom!

With the formation of his seal, it seemed that the heavens and the earth shook violently. The Heavenly Lion statue suddenly gave off a terrifying pressure. Under that pressure, even the heavens and the earth seemed to be shaking.

Roar! Roar!

The Heavenly Lion statue was constantly bursting out with an earth-shattering lion’s roar. Each roar caused a spiritual energy windstorm between the heavens and the earth, and as the lion’s roar intensified, a little black light appeared on the Heavenly Lion’s forehead.

Looking at that little black light, even Mu Chen’s pupils shrank slightly. He was obviously aware of the great danger. Immediately, the spiritual energy in his body was also running wildly and fully bracing itself against the attack.

Still trapped in the Cosmic Descent Star Array in the distance, Green Snake Ancestor saw this, and his face also slightly changed. He was quite familiar with Lion King Gu, and he could see what the latter was doing at this time. “This old geezer is actually using this method? Is that kid really so difficult to deal with?”

Green Snake Ancestor blinked. He had fought with Lion King Gu, so he naturally knew the terror of the latter’s surekill technique. Even if he was perfect, he did not dare to counter this method. However, Lion King Gu used it now to deal with Mu Chen, who had just became an Upper Earthly Sovereign. It seemed to be like breaking a butterfly upon the wheel.

However, Green Snake Ancestor was also a cautious old fox. His vision was extraordinary. It appeared that Lion King Gu did not want to break the butterfly upon the wheel, but everything else had proved ineffective against Mu Chen.

“The situation seems a bit wrong,” Green Snake Ancestor muttered to himself. His temperament was just like a snake’s, cunning and cautious. He promised Lion King Gu he would visit only because he felt that there was nothing to be afraid of from a small Upper Earthly Sovereign. But at this moment, this so-called Upper Earthly Sovereign was not that simple.

Green Snake Ancestor looked in the other direction, and there was another terrible battle going on. Evil Fish Liang was also caught in a fierce battle, and his two opponents were surprisingly difficult. Needless to say, although Long Xiang was a half step Complete, his power was terrifying. If taken directly, even a Complete Earthly Sovereign would suffer.

As for the beautiful little girl, it was unbelievable. She had the strength of a mere Lower Earthly Sovereign, but when she was displaying the Sovereign Celestial Body, even Green Snake Ancestor was shocked. Apparently, he also recognized the Luo God Celestial Body that was famous in the Great Thousand World.

With the support of the Luo God Celestial Body, although Luo Li was only a helper, the occasional offensive was still able to trouble Evil Fish Liang a little, to the point that he could not fully defeat Long Xiang, and for a time, the battle was in a stalemate.

In this way, three Complete Earthly Sovereigns, surprisingly, had no advantage at all.

Noticing the situation, Green Snake Ancestor’s face changed, and his eyes flashed. No one had any idea what he was thinking of. The moment Green Snake Ancestor changed his mind, it seemed that the black light on the Heavenly Lion’s forehead in the distance became extremely thick, as if it were a small black hole.

Lion King Gu’s gaze was like a viper locking onto Mu Chen. A gloomy voice rang out, “In these past years, almost all of the people who have forced me to use this trick were complete super-powerful people. This is the first time I’ve used it to deal with an Upper Earthly Sovereign! So, you’d better go and die!”

When the last word fell, Lion King Gu’s look suddenly became ferocious, both of his hands suddenly produced numerous afterimage seals, and a violent sound resounded through the sky. “Sovereign Super Power, Doomsday Heavenly Lion!”

When the violent screaming resounded, it seemed that the black hole was rotating vigorously between the Heavenly Lion’s eyebrows, and the next moment, a black beam suddenly burst out. That light beam transformed into a black lion a few dozen feet long. That lion’s body was covered with mysterious lines, and there was a kind of almost doomsday-like atmosphere. The black lion ran across the place, and the space collapsed as if all vitality had followed the lion.

Mu Chen looked at the black lion that came from the violent blast, and he was totally dignified. Lion King Gu was truly a Complete Earthly Sovereign, as this level of Sovereign Super Power could only be described with the word “horror.” It seemed hard for even a normal Grand Super Power to compare to this level of Sovereign Super Power.

Huu.

Mu Chen took a deep breath. He knew that this was Lion King Gu’s surekill technique. If it was impossible to resist, even if he had the protection of the Immortal Golden Body, it seemed that he would be defeated without any doubt. Therefore, his feet suddenly stomped on the ground, and the endless spiritual energy in his body was like a flood, continuously flowing into the Immortal Golden Body.

Whoosh.

Thus, the Immortal God Rune, once again hovered around his body like a huge purple dragon. In just a few moments, the number of runes had reached 55! These quantities were Mu Chen’s current limit.

Lion King Gu saw the 55 Immortal God Runes, but he sneered. After the previous test, he knew the power of the Immortal God Rune, but if there were only 55, it was far from enough to resist his surekill technique.

“If that is the case, you shall rot in this place!” Lion King Gu smiled ferociously. The black lion carrying the doomsday-like atmosphere accelerated suddenly, piercing the void and directly hitting the Immortal Golden Body.

The black light was getting closer in Mu Chen’s eyes. He glanced at the 55 Immortal God Runes that hovered around his body, and his mouth puckered. He also knew that the 55 Immortal God Runes were not sufficient.

“If this is the case…” Mu Chen blinked slightly, and his hands formed a seal again. A moment later, there were slight spatial fluctuations around him. He saw a figure slowly appear. It was a Mu Chen in black robes!

When Lion King Gu saw the Mu Chen in black appear, disbelief showed in his eyes. He realized that the Mu Chen in black was identical to Mu Chen and was also emitting a strong spiritual energy fluctuation like the original Mu Chen. It was another Upper Earthly Sovereign!

“How is that possible?!” Lion King Gu exclaimed.

However, Mu Chen did not pay attention to it. Once the Mu Chen in black appeared, he laid both of his hands on the Immortal Golden Body. The next moment, a majestic spiritual energy burst out from his body and infused into the Immortal Golden Body. With another infusion of spiritual energy from Mu Chen, the Immortal Golden Body produced a purple gold light, and the Immortal God Runes emerged again.

In just a few moments, the Immortal God Runes around Mu Chen’s body shockingly multiplied to 80! Eighty Immortal God Runes hovered around Mu Chen’s body. There was a similar terrifying fluctuation spreading out, causing spatial fluctuations. Looking at the 80 Immortal God Runes, Mu Chen was slightly relieved, and after waving his sleeves, the 80 Immortal God Runes suddenly burst out.

“Immortal God Rune, Myriad of Change, Immortal Shield!”

Eighty Immortal God Runes were intertwined, and in the blink of an eye, they formed a giant purple gold shield that was about 1,000 feet in front of Mu Chen. The top of the shield was covered with an immortal atmosphere, as if it were indestructible. Such a defense might even be able to block a perfect surekill technique.

Boom!

The moment the Immortal Shield was formed, the black lion burst toward it. Its volume was much smaller than the Immortal Shield’s. However, when the impact hit, Mu Chen’s eyes narrowed. He realized he had underestimated the power of Lion King Gu’s technique.

Boom!

The indescribably loud voice echoed between the heavens and the earth. A huge spiritual energy rainstorm tens of thousands of feet in size was formed. It erupted directly, and the madness raged and crushed the space.

The black atmosphere was entangled on the top of the Immortal Shield, and under the erosion of the doomsday-like atmosphere, even the Immortal Shield was silently cracking.

“Kid, just you wanting to block my surekill technique is simply crying for the moon!” Lion King Gu laughed.

Bang!

Amid the laughter, the Immortal Shield finally reached its limit. It exploded with a bang! The next moment, the remaining black light torrent obscured Mu Chen from view.

Lion King Gu’s face displayed a cold smile. Even though the previous Immortal Shield blocked most of the power, the remaining power was still enough to hurt Mu Chen and make him completely lose his combat power.

The black light quickly dissipated, and the direction in which Mu Chen was located was quickly becoming clear. As Lion King Gu gazed towards it, his heart could not help but sink, because he saw that Mu Chen still stood unscathed on the shoulder of the Immortal Golden Body. However, by his side, the Mu Chen in black was covered all over with wounds and scars, and the spiritual light on the whole body dimmed with the loss of combat power. Obviously, before the moment of grave danger, the Mu Chen in black had absorbed all the damage and did not allow Mu Chen to be affected.

“What a cunning boy!” Lion King Gu’s face was gloomy as he sneered. “It is worth it to hurt your clone. Let’s see what are you going to do next.”

Although it had not hurt Mu Chen, the attack was able to defeat the Mu Chen in black. Mu Chen could no longer rely on the latter’s power, at least for a while. However, facing Lion King Gu’s sneer, Mu Chen raised his head up and smiled strangely. “Who told you that I have only this clone?”

Lion King Gu’s eyes suddenly narrowed, and in the next moment, an indescribably dangerous atmosphere shrouded his heart. He turned his body sharply, and then he saw the space behind him break open. Suddenly, a white figure flashed out. It turned out to be a Mu Chen in white robes, and he was holding a simple and unsophisticated crystal sword. When he saw the crystal sword, Lion King Gu was stunned, because on that crystal sword, he could detect a Heavenly Sovereign-like atmosphere.

Seeing Lion King Gu’s shocked gaze, the Mu Chen in white also smiled. The next moment, the crystal sword he held cut through the space in an unavoidable gesture and slashed at Lion King Gu’s head.

“This is your end, old geezer.”
