Huff!
The black Qi current was like an enraged python that coiled around Garuda's body. It emitted a deep roar that turned into a substantial sound wave that spread out, causing the space around it to tremble.
Boom!
Jia Louluo's body was pitch-black as he stood on the ground like a demonic deity with a torrential aura. At this moment, just the power of his physical body alone could contend with a Perfected Ninth Grade Sovereign.
Mu Chen looked at Jia Louluo with a grave expression. Jia Louluo's physical body was probably the strongest amongst those of the same generation that he had encountered.
If it wasn't for his Dragon-Phoenix Physique being refined and improved in the Heavenly Lake's baptism, he might not be able to defeat Jia Louluo in terms of physical strength.
Boom!
While Mu Chen's body tensed up, killing intent burst out from Jia Louluo's eyes. Without any hesitation, he stomped his foot, causing the ground to tremble and his silhouette had mysteriously disappeared.
Buzz!
A dazzling golden light burst out from Mu Chen's body. Facing Jia Louluo's disappearance, he wasn't startled in the slightest. He clenched his fist and threw a punch towards the right.
His arm whistled forth with a True Dragon and Phoenix coiling around it. Draconic roars and phoenix cries resounded with a power that could destroy mountains.
When Mu Chen threw his fist forth, a blurry silhouette appeared in the void and threw a punch forth as well. Instantly, a boundless black radiance burst out from his fist.
Rumble!
The two fists, which contained terrifying power, were like meteorites that streaked across the horizon as they violently clashed together.
Ripples that could be seen with the naked eye erupted in an instant.
Space buzzed and trembled. The space around the two fists was completely distorted. Faintly, there were even cracks spreading out.
A frightening rebounding force rushed over like a tsunami, causing Mu Chen and Jia Louluo's bodies to violently tremble.
Then, it flew backward for thousands of meters.
Whoosh!
However, just as the two of them stabilized their bodies, they once again shot out like lightning.
Bang!
Bang!
On the Golden Plaza, two phantom-like silhouettes constantly flickered as they constantly clashed with their fists and legs. At this moment, they did not use too much Spiritual Energy and were purely relying on their powerful physiques to clash.
However, even if he didn't use much Spiritual Energy, the impact of the collision was still terrifying.
It was enough to make a Perfected Grade Nine expert turn pale.
In the view of many Perfected Ninth Grade Sovereigns, the two of them possessed monstrous physiques.
In less than a hundred breaths of time, Mu Chen and Jia Louluo had practically clashed hundreds of times. Both of their attacks were extremely ruthless and every single one of their attacks were extremely crafty, targeting the other's vitals.
Boom!
It was another ferocious collision that made one's heart palpitate.
The two silhouettes shot out and their feet left long marks on the golden ground.
At this moment, the two of them had their sleeves torn apart.
Their sleeves were torn apart and traces of blood could be seen on their arms. That was caused by the frightening recoil when they exchanged blows. However, it wasn't a big deal with the strength of their physical bodies.
However, the two of them's breathing had become a little heavier.
It was clear that the intense battle from before required a high level of concentration for them.
Facing an opponent of their level, neither of them dared to slack off.
Jia Louluo's gaze coldly locked onto Mu Chen as he wiped his arm.
Instantly, those traces of blood recovered and he coldly said, "It's no wonder why even Xia Yu would fall in your hands. You do have some ability."
Through the previous confrontation, he had completely retracted all the contempt in his heart. Mu Chen could definitely become a great enemy of his, a feeling that he had only felt when he fought with Zhu Yan.
Mu Chen's gaze was still indifferent as the True Dragon and Phoenix Spirits coiled around his body and looked at Jia Louluo.
When Jia Louluo saw this scene, he sneered, "But no matter how outstanding you are, there's only one person that can survive today, and that person will not be you!"
Boom!
When he finished speaking, he abruptly threw a fist forth as torrential Spiritual Energy violently gathered beneath his fist, forming into a myriad-foot long fist of light. The fist of light was like a ferocious black beast as it swept out like a bolt of lightning, enveloping Mu Chen within it.
At this moment, Jia Louluo had finally started to use his Spiritual Energy. Clearly, he did not intend to drag the battle any longer.
As the black fist of light filled his vision, Mu Chen slightly narrowed his eyes. The space behind him trembled as his Sovereign Sea vaguely appeared. Seawater surged within it, turning into endless Spiritual Energy that swept out.
Mu Chen gently pushed both of his palms out as boundless Spiritual Energy whistled out, forming into a myriad-foot wide Spiritual Energy barrier before him. On the barrier, the True Dragon and Phoenix Spirits swam about, pushing its defences to the limits.
Boom!
The ferocious black fist of light heavily slammed against the Spiritual Energy barrier, but it only caused the latter to tremble and was unable to destroy it.
But facing this, Mu Chen did not feel relaxed, since he knew that this attack was only the beginning.
Rumble!
Rumble!
Just when Mu Chen had this thought flashed across his mind, endless muffled thunder resounded in this space. Mu Chen slightly raised his head and saw countless black meteors falling from the horizon.
Those meteors were all formed from fist lights. Their mighty momentum seemed to be able to destroy anything that stood in their way.
Boom!
Boom!
The meteor fist descended and landed on the huge Spiritual Energy barrier. Instantly, violent ripples erupted from the barrier and became even more rapid.
But with the support of the True Dragon and Phoenix Spirits, the Spiritual Energy barrier's defences were exceptionally powerful. When the last meteor fell, the Spiritual Energy barrier was covered in cracks and was on the verge of shattering, but it still firmly stood before Mu Chen.
However.
It was also at this moment that Mu Chen's heart suddenly jolted as he felt a strong sense of danger. Thus, he abruptly raised his head and saw Jia Louluo standing on a golden pillar in the distance.
At this moment, he formed a strange seal with his hands.
Around him, boundless Spiritual Energy was as viscous as a black ocean, making one's heart palpitate.
Jia Louluo looked at Mu Chen with ridicule in his eyes as he stirred his hands. Instantly, the black ocean that was formed from Spiritual Energy started to churn, as if there was something terrifying brewing in the ocean.
A terrifying fluctuation was being emitted from it.
At this moment, Mu Chen's face turned extremely grave.
"I know that you're tough to deal with, but I don't think that those attacks from before could pose a threat to you. Those attacks were just to give me some time to prepare."
Jia Louluo lightly smiled as he stretched his finger out and heavily tapped down on the black ocean.
"Saint Demon Divine Ability - Saint Demon Hand!"
Boom!
The black ocean was abruptly torn apart.
Countless black auras soared into the sky as Mu Chen's face slightly changed.
A huge black hand that seemed to have stretched out from Jiu You abruptly stretched out from the black ocean. Thereafter, it seemed to have pierced through space as it enveloped over.
The huge black hand seemed to have enveloped the heavens and earth, making it impossible for anyone to escape.
At this moment, Mu Chen's heart couldn't help trembling. Such means.
Such momentum, it must be a genuine Divine Ability!
He never imagined that Jia Louluo had also cultivated a Divine Ability!
As the heavens and earth turned dark, Mu Chen's face was exceptionally grave.
Shortly after, he deeply inhaled a mouthful of air as he shut his eyes. In the next instant, he abruptly opened them. His eyes had instantly turned red as a terrifying killing aura burst out from his body.
Mu Chen stood under the huge hand with his head held high. He did not dodge or evade, but a boundless aura of sacrificing himself to become a demon burst out from his frail body.
Sensing the sudden change in Mu Chen's aura, Jia Louluo's pupils slightly shrank. Then, he saw Mu Chen take half a step back, his body like a bow, and his right fist blasted out.
At the same time, there seemed to be a low and deep voice that rang out in the plaza.
"Self-Sacrificial Demonic Fist!"
Mu Chen stomped on the ground as his figure burst forth. In the face of the huge hand that blotted out the sun, he was as tiny as an ant. However, he still fearlessly charged forth, and in the end, he swung his fist and heavily collided with the huge hand.
Buzz!
At the instant of the collision, the world and space seemed to turn silent. Not a sound could be heard.
However, amidst this silence, one could only see huge spatial cracks being torn apart at the point of collision. Those cracks were akin to huge dragons baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, emitting heart-palpitating undulations.
Boom!
Space itself seemed to tremble amidst the soundless collision. In the next instant, the giant hand that blotted out the sun violently trembled at this moment. Cracks quietly spread across its surface, and with a final bang, it exploded into pieces.
However, the instant the huge hand exploded, Mu Chen also suffered a heavy blow. His body shot backwards and smashed into the huge golden pillars, shattering the incomparably hard pillars into golden dust that filled the sky.
In the distance, although Jia Louluo did not retreat, the huge pillar beneath his feet had also crumbled into dust at this moment, causing his expression to turn even darker.
Golden dust danced in the sky.
Mu Chen stabilized his body and exchanged a glance with Jia Louluo. Then, a smear of blood appeared on the corner of their mouths.
The collision of the two Divine Abilities had clearly caused them some kind of recoil damage.
Jia Louluo's eyes were dark. This was the first time he had used the Divine Demon Hand, but he still failed to crush his opponent.
Mu Chen also knitted his brows. His Self-Sacrificial Demonic Fist, which had always been successful in battles with his peers, had actually been blocked.
What a formidable opponent!
The same thought flashed across their minds at this moment.
In the next instant, a black stone seal appeared in Jia Louluo's hand.
An azure feathered fan appeared in Mu Chen's hand.
