The mausoleum seemed to be floating in the void. Around it, space was shattered. Countless spatial fragments formed turbulent flows that whistled around, forming a natural barrier.
Of course, the most terrifying thing was the pressure of the two terrifying powers that were faintly discernible emanating from the cemetery.
"Let's go."
Mu Chen was also shocked by the terrifying aura in the Heavenly Emperor Cemetery, but he wasn't overly fearful. After a brief pondering, he looked at Xiao Xiao and the rest. It wasn't easy for them to get here, so they naturally couldn't turn back.
Xiao Xiao and the other two ladies naturally had no objections as they carefully flew out, passing through the spatial turbulence and landed in the pitch-black cemetery.
When they stepped into the cemetery, they instantly felt an indescribable pressure enveloping them. Under that pressure, even the Spiritual Energy in their bodies had turned sluggish.
Fortunately, the few of them weren't ordinary people. They immediately circulated their Spiritual Energy and gradually withstood the pressure. Then, they raised their heads and looked at the cemetery.
This glance caused their hearts to involuntarily tremble.
In the boundless cemetery, there were innumerable towering peaks that hovered in the sky and the ground was filled with bottomless cracks that coiled like black dragons.
"The space here has already been shattered and even the laws here are in chaos."
Xiao Xiao's face turned grave at this scene. What kind of battle could cause the space here to be in chaos for tens of thousands of years?
Mu Chen wore a solemn expression. Just when he was about to speak, his gaze suddenly flickered.
He looked in another direction and saw streaks of light flying over, forming into silhouettes that landed in the Heavenly Emperor Cemetery.
Those people were clearly from the various forces and they were also making their way over to the Heavenly Emperor Cemetery.
Amongst those people, Mu Chen saw a familiar silhouette. It was Xia Hong of the Xia Empire, the latter's current appearance.
At this moment, the latter was viciously staring at Mu Chen.
"Hehe. Mu Chen, weren't you arrogant earlier?" Xia Hong eerily looked at Mu Chen with an eerie smile hanging on the corner of his lips.
If it was in the past, even if he encountered Mu Chen, he would probably have to hide. But right now, it's no longer the same. When he stepped into the Heavenly Emperor Cemetery, Mu Chen was akin to a dead man in his eyes.
Because when he arrived here, he could not help it.
He would be able to summon his father at any time.
However, Mu Chen had completely ignored Xia Hong's venomous gaze.
As for the so-called Emperor Xia, he had long since made ample preparations.
In Xia Hong's eyes, his disregard caused the latter's face to distort with a sinister expression before a jade talisman appeared in his hand.
"Mu Chen, I will make you kneel down and beg me later!"
Xia Hong growled.
He crushed the jade talisman in his hand.
Boom!
When the jade talisman shattered, a powerful Spiritual Energy burst out. The Spiritual Energy gathered and tore space apart, forming into a spatial passage that was roughly a foot wide.
In that instant when the passage was formed, a majestic silhouette slowly walked out.
When that silhouette stepped out of the spatial passage, boundless Spiritual Energy swept out like a storm, causing the nearby mountains to be reduced to ashes.
Boundless Spiritual Energy swept out like a storm. The nearby mountains that were floating in the sky were forcefully shaken into dust by the boundless Spiritual Energy.
"Is this the Heavenly Emperor Cemetery? Xia Hong, you've done well," said the imposing figure as he descended.
He looked around, then nodded his head in praise.
The Xia Emperor first praised, then he nodded his head in praise.
"Where's Xia Yu?"
Xia Hong suddenly asked. He couldn't sense any Spiritual Energy fluctuation from Xia Yu.
When Xia Hong heard his words, he viciously looked at Mu Chen. "Imperial Father, Imperial Brother has fallen, and he's the murderer!"
In the sky, the Xia Emperor's silhouette seemed to have paused for a brief moment before his emotionless eyes shot down and stopped on Mu Chen's body.
Buzz!
When Xia Yu's gaze was directed over, Mu Chen instantly felt a terrifying pressure surging over, as if it wanted to force him to kneel on the ground.
Under the terrifying pressure, Mu Chen's face was dark. But in the next moment, a purplish-golden lustre burst out from his body, resisting the pressure of a Greater Earth Sovereign. However, the ground beneath his feet started to crack.
"Mhm?"
Seeing that Mu Chen had resisted the pressure, the Xia Emperor exclaimed. With his cultivation at the Greater Earth Sovereign Realm, ordinary Perfected Ninth Grade Sovereigns would probably have their bodies shattered from the pressure. But right now, that brat was actually unharmed?
Mu Chen clenched his teeth as he endured the terrifying pressure. However, he still raised his head and looked at the Xia Emperor of the Xia Empire.
The Xia Emperor was donned in a golden dragon robe and stood with his hands behind his back. His face was faintly golden and vaguely, there was an endless prestige emanating from him that made others feel fearful.
Crack!
Mu Chen cast a glance at the Xia Emperor and crushed the jade stone that Mandala had given him without any hesitation. Instantly, violent Spiritual Energy formed into a spatial passage behind him and a petite silhouette walked out.
In the instant that she walked out, the Spiritual Energy pressure that came from the Xia Emperor instantly disappeared from Mu Chen's body.
"What?
The Xia Emperor of the Xia Empire actually disregards his status and wants to make a move against a junior? "Mandala's tender and cold voice resounded at this moment.
The Xia Emperor's gaze was dark as he looked at Mandala, who appeared behind Mu Chen, and his indifferent voice was filled with killing intent. "This brat killed the Crown Prince of my Xia Empire. If your Great Heaven Domain wants to protect him, then my Xia Empire can only start a war with you guys."
As he spoke, two silhouettes walked out from the spatial passage behind him. They were two Lesser Earth Sovereigns, the pinnacle powerhouses of the Xia Empire.
Two Lesser Earth Sovereigns and a Greater Earth Sovereign, this formation was extremely powerful.
If it was an ordinary pinnacle force, they would probably hand over the unremarkable Mu Chen without any hesitation. However, there was a faint smile on Mandala's face.
Several silhouettes walked out from the spatial passage behind her with boundless Spiritual Energy sweeping out. It was a total of five Lesser Earth Sovereigns.
The five Lesser Earth Sovereigns were naturally the rulers of pinnacle forces in the Northern Region. Naturally, they could be considered as members of the Northern Region Alliance.
"Our Northern Region Alliance is one. If your Xia Empire wants to declare war, then we will accept it together." Mandala smiled.
The five Lesser Earth Sovereigns helplessly flung their lips aside. Although they didn't agree with the idea of starting a war with a pinnacle force like the Xia Empire, they did not show any objections due to Mandala's existence.
At the very least, in terms of strength, the Northern Region Alliance was stronger than the Grand Xia Empire. If a battle really broke out, they might even be able to earn a huge sum of money.
When the Xia Emperor saw that Mandala was willing to start a war with their Xia Empire to protect Mu Chen, his gaze turned cold. There wasn't any expression on his face, but the Spiritual Energy around him was fluctuating like a storm, displaying the rage in his heart.
Space seemed to distort under the Xia Emperor's rage.
Facing the enraged Xia Emperor, Garuda still stood in the sky with a terrifying Spiritual Energy fluctuation bursting out from her petite figure as she confronted the Xia Emperor.
The atmosphere between the two sides had instantly turned tense. Buzz!
Buzz!
While they were facing each other, many spatial ripples suddenly spread out in this region and the experts of the various forces that had arrived had retrieved their Spatial Seals, summoning the pinnacle experts of the various forces into the Heavenly Emperor Cemetery.
Instantly, powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuations soared into the sky in the Heavenly Emperor Cemetery. Boundless Spiritual Energy filled the heavens and earth as Earth Sovereigns started to descend into the cemetery.
When those pinnacle powerhouses descended, they had also swiftly discovered the tense situation between Mandala and the Xia Emperor. However, those pinnacle powerhouses did not have any intentions of interfering. After all, both sides had Greater Earth Sovereigns, and with such a powerful formation, it wouldn't be a good outcome for them if they forcefully interfered.
Furthermore, it was a good thing for them if the two sides fought. It would be best if both sides suffered heavy losses so that they would have fewer competitors.
However, this situation did not last forever.
"Haha, Datura, I never thought that you would hide in the Northern Region all these years. You've really made me look for you." A clear laughter suddenly resounded between the heavens and earth, attracting the attention of many experts.
When Mu Chen heard that voice, he slightly narrowed his eyes. That's because he realised that that person had called out to Datura and not Mandala. That also meant that that person knew of Mandala's identity.
In the Greatlaw Continent, aside from him, probably only Mandala's enemy, the Saint Demonic Emperor of the Saint Demonic Palace, Lu Heng, knew about Datura's identity.
Mu Chen raised his head and looked into the distance. Space fluctuated and a silhouette seemed to be walking on the ripples of space. Although it seemed slow, it had appeared before them in the next instant.
The silhouette that flew over first cast a glance at Mandala, before shifting his gaze onto Mu Chen with a faint smile that was extremely gentle.
"I can sense the fluctuation of the Ocean Overturning Seal on you. Looks like Jia Louluo has also fallen in your hands."
