A commotion came from the depths of the Heavenly Lake and Mu Chen's eyes flashed with joy when he opened them. He could sense that the imprints that he had left in the Spirits of the Heavenly Lake had once again appeared within his senses.
However, the fluctuation that emanated from the imprints wasn't the same as before.
That's because there wasn't a total of ninety-nine imprints, but a single one!
However, the fluctuation that came from a single imprint had left Mu Chen shocked in his heart. If the ninety-nine Spirits of the Heavenly Lake were akin to hours, then this fluctuation was akin to a blazing sun that illuminated the world with endless light.
Sensing the changes, a smile uncontrollably rose on the corner of Mu Chen's lips. Judging from the current situation, his previous guess was 70-80% accurate.
The so-called hundredth Spirit of the Heavenly Lake truly couldn't be obtained through ordinary means.
Rumble!
While Mu Chen rejoiced in his heart, the massive lake above Zhu Yan, Xiao Xiao, Jia Louluo, and Lin Jing had already started to tremble and a massive waterfall descended from the lake, enveloping them.
The waterfall contained extremely pure energy and the lake water was extremely viscous. It was so much so that one could vaguely see some sparkling dust.
The dust was formed from extremely refined Spiritual Energy. Just a single grain of it would probably surpass tens of thousands of drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid. Furthermore, the purity of it was even more shocking.
When the waterfall descended, Zhu Yan and the rest had immediately brought out their Sovereign Celestial Bodies in preparation to receive the baptism.
Zhu Yan was the first to bring out his Sovereign Celestial Body and boundless flames gathered behind him. In just a few breaths' time, he had formed into a massive flaming silhouette that was enveloped in domineering flames.
It caused space to distort and looked like a god of fire from afar.
"That's the Divine Flame Celestial Body that Zhu Yan has cultivated?
It's said to be one of the Ultimate Celestial Bodies of the Fire Spirit Clan, ranked on the 99 Rankings of Sovereign Celestial Bodies.
Rank 34! "
When Zhu Yan's Sovereign Celestial Body appeared, a commotion broke out in the heavens and earth. Practically every expert had covetous eyes. Even a peak force in the Greatlaw Continent like the Xia Empire wouldn't be able to obtain such a Sovereign Celestial Body.
From this, it could be seen just how rare it was.
Mu Chen stared at the Sovereign Celestial Body behind Zhu Yan and couldn't help sighing. According to his estimations, the Sovereign Celestial Body of the Flame God might not be inferior to the Great Solar Undying Body that he had cultivated.
After all, the potential of the Great Solar Undying Body was terrifying.
However, it was, after all, the most basic Sovereign Celestial Body. In terms of ranking, it could only be ranked in the thirties at most, not much higher than the Divine Flame Flame Body.
In the past, when Mu Chen was still weak, the Great Solar Undying Body could indeed suppress those geniuses that didn't have a strong foundation. But now that his opponents were getting stronger, the Sovereign Celestial Bodies that he had encountered were also getting stronger and stronger.
One could imagine that if this carried on, there might be a day when he would encounter a Sovereign Celestial Body that was even more powerful than the Great Solar Undying Body.
At that time …
Perhaps it would be time for him to taste how sullen it was when his Sovereign Celestial Body was suppressed.
Thus, to prevent such a situation from happening, he had to obtain the evolution method of the Great Solar Undying Body in the Ancient Haven Palace. Only by evolving it, would he be able to maintain his absolute advantage.
While Mu Chen's thoughts were circulating in his mind.
An earth-shattering lustre gathered behind Lin Jing. That lustre was extremely gentle, as if it could fuse with anything.
As the light converged, it transformed into a massive silhouette. That slender silhouette was emitting a jade lustre. That jade lustre seemed to be able to fuse with everything in the world. She held a jade bottle in her hand, and there was a faint fluctuation being emitted from the mouth of the bottle, as if it was nurturing something terrifying.
The appearance of the Sovereign Celestial Body had caused many experts in the Heavenly Lake to be briefly stunned, before pondering for a long time. Finally, someone had thought of something and a wave of inhaling cold breaths resounded.
"Lin Jing is actually cultivating the Divine Jade Celestial Body that's ranked 28th on the 99 Rankings of Sovereign Celestial Bodies?!" Mu Chen's heart couldn't help trembling with shock on his face.
The Divine Jade Celestial Body wasn't that famous in the Great Thousand World. It wasn't because it didn't live up to its name, but because the requirements to cultivate it were too harsh. Furthermore, the resources required to cultivate it was something that even a peak force wouldn't be able to cultivate with all their resources.
The most famous aspect of the Divine Jade Celestial Body wasn't its ranking, but its ability to contain anything. As long as one managed to cultivate this Celestial Body, even if they wanted to cultivate a higher ranked Sovereign Celestial Body in the future, they wouldn't have to start from scratch. They only needed to use the Divine Jade Celestial Body as the foundation. In that case, not only would the cultivation speed of the new Sovereign Celestial Body be faster, but the might of the new Sovereign Celestial Body would also possess the advantages of the two Sovereign Celestial Bodies.
Thus, although the Divine Jade Celestial Body was only ranked 28th, its plasticity could definitely be ranked in the top ten or even higher!
"It's too important to have a good father."
At this moment, even Mu Chen couldn't help sighing. Probably only a colossal figure like the Martial Realm and an existence like Wu Zu could provide the conditions for Lin Jing to cultivate the Divine Jade Celestial Body.
When the Divine Jade Celestial Body appeared, even Zhu Yan was startled. Shortly after, he took a deep glance at Lin Jing. Even he was shocked by the foundation that the latter had displayed. Evidently, this girl's background should be extremely terrifying, at least not any weaker than Xiao Xiao's.
Jia Louluo's gaze was dark without any expression on his face. No one could see through his thoughts.
"I wonder what Xiao Xiao's Sovereign Celestial Body is?"
When Mu Chen sensed the fluctuation in the depths of the Heavenly Lake, he looked at Xiao Xiao. Her father was the famous Yan Emperor, so the Sovereign Celestial Body that he had prepared for her shouldn't be ordinary.
Although the legendary Wu Zu and Yan Emperor had not met each other yet, their daughter was vaguely relying on her father under this situation.
Xiao Xiao closed her eyes and a seven-coloured lustre gushed out from her back. Within the lustre, a massive silhouette appeared. That silhouette was also slender, clearly in the shape of a woman. However, what left others astonished was that below that woman's waist, there was a seven-coloured snake tail with scales flickering on it, emitting a bewitching lustre that made others feel a stinging pain in their eyes.
"What Sovereign Celestial Body is that?"
When Mu Chen saw the snake-tailed Sovereign Celestial Body, he couldn't help being stunned. That's because, according to his knowledge, there wasn't any similar Sovereign Celestial Body amongst the 99 Rankings of Sovereign Celestial Bodies.
Clearly, the mysterious Sovereign Celestial Body that Xiao Xiao had cultivated wasn't in the rankings. But from the fluctuation emanating from it, even Mu Chen felt a little dangerous.
This Sovereign Celestial Body that wasn't in the rankings wasn't any weaker than the Great Solar Undying Body.
"Could it be a Sovereign Celestial Body created by Yan Emperor?
If that's the case, then Yan Emperor is too terrifying. "Mu Chen briefly pondered as he smacked his lips.
A commotion broke out on the Heavenly Lake. Clearly, many experts were puzzled by Xiao Xiao's mysterious Sovereign Celestial Body. But since they didn't know Xiao Xiao's identity, they couldn't make any guesses and could only leave it be.
At this moment, Mu Chen's gaze sharpened as he looked at Jia Louluo.
The latter had unexpectedly turned his head around at this moment as he looked at Mu Chen with killing intent surging in his eyes. Shortly after, the corner of his lips rose as he abruptly formed seals with both of his hands. In an instant, boundless Spiritual Energy gathered behind him as an astonishing fluctuation swept out, causing the surrounding space to tremble.
Boundless light gathered behind him and everyone could see a sun rising. Under the sun, a huge figure was seated, slightly looking down, as if it was overlooking the entire world.
A boundless pressure had also fluctuated in space.
Looking at the Great Solar Undying Body that appeared behind Jia Louluo, Mu Chen couldn't help narrowing his eyes.
Judging from the appearance, the Great Solar Undying Body that Jia Louluo had cultivated was roughly the same as the one that he had cultivated. However, the former's Great Solar Undying Body wasn't golden, but a dark colour.
Furthermore, the sun that hovered behind his head wasn't golden like Mu Chen's, but a black sun. As the sun slowly rotated, it was like a black hole that wanted to devour the heavens and earth.
If the Great Solar Undying Body that Mu Chen had cultivated was like a blazing sun that walked on the majestic King's Path, then the Great Solar Undying Body that Jia Louluo had cultivated was like a black hole in the starry sky, dark and bizarre, making others feel fearful.
Although they both had the same Sovereign Celestial Body, the two of them had taken a completely different path.
However, when Jia Louluo had refined the Great Solar Undying Body, the Spiritual Energy around Mu Chen violently surged as light gathered behind him. The Great Solar Undying Body that he had cultivated had actually appeared a little out of his control.
However, he still managed to suppress it in the end. However, he had also cast a deep glance at Jia Louluo. For some reason, he had a feeling that one of the Great Solar Undying Bodies between the two of them would definitely be destroyed.
Out of the two, only one could exist!
Jia Louluo indifferently looked at Mu Chen and gently smiled. "After I complete this baptism, my Great Solar Undying Body will reach its pinnacle. At that time, your Great Solar Undying Body will be destroyed by me."
Mu Chen raised his eyelids. "I feel that your Great Solar Undying Body might become my whetstone."
"Oh?
Based on what?
A person that has even lost his baptism? "Jia Louluo revealed a playful smile.
An indescribable smile appeared on Mu Chen's face as he stared at Jia Louluo and gently smiled. "Did you really think that I have lost my baptism?"
His hands slowly opened up at this moment.
Jia Louluo couldn't help narrowing his eyes. But just when he was about to speak, his eyes abruptly narrowed. That's because he suddenly saw the Heavenly Lake beneath Mu Chen's feet bursting with a myriad foot of light.
Under the Heavenly Lake, there seemed to be a blazing sun that was swiftly rising!
