Ling Zhanzi stood in the boundless forest with a powerful Spiritual Energy sweeping around him. The Battle Runes on his arms flickered, making him look like an undefeatable god of war that was filled with deterrence.
Ling Zhanzi indifferently looked at the Black Tortoise Battle Will Will Spirit that he sent flying, as well as the collapsing Spiritual Array around Mu Chen with a smear of ridicule on his face. "If that's all you have, then you've truly disappointed me."
There weren't any ripples on Mu Chen's face, but there was a smear of graveness in his eyes. Ling Zhanzi was truly the most powerful Greater Earth Sovereign that he had encountered.
According to his estimations, Ling Zhanzi should be in the Pinnacle Greater Earth Sovereign Realm at this moment, not far from the Perfected Earth Sovereign Realm.
"Truly the direct disciple of the West Heaven Battle Emperor."
Mu Chen muttered to himself before he raised his head without any fear in his eyes. On the contrary, he smiled towards Ling Zhanzi. "If you want to know, then come and give it a try. I believe that you will not be disappointed."
Ling Zhanzi might be extraordinary, but he, Mu Chen, wasn't a pushover, either. It's still hard to determine the victor of this battle!
"Really?
I hope so. Otherwise, it would be too boring. "
Boom!
When Ling Zhanzi finished his words, his silhouette had turned into afterimages as he flew out.
Ling Zhanzi lightly nodded his head before he appeared before Mu Chen in the next instant and threw a jab forth. The Battle Runes on his arm burst out with a dazzling lustre and the might of that fist even caused space to shatter into fragments.
Ling Zhanzi's fist swiftly expanded in Mu Chen's eyes. However, facing such a ferocious fist, Mu Chen did not choose to retreat, since he wanted to test the strength of a Pinnacle Greater Earth Sovereign.
The crystal pagoda appeared in the depths of his eyes and the boundless Spiritual Energy in his body had been converted into crystallised Spiritual Energy. In the next moment, he clenched his fist and threw a jab forth.
A crystallised lustre blossomed on his fist and the Spiritual Energy in his body gushed out without any restraint, forming into a crystallised glove on his fist.
Boom!
In the next instant, the two fists violently slammed against each other. Instantly, ripples that could be seen with the naked eye swept out. The forest beneath their feet, as well as the huge trees within a ten thousand feet radius, were instantly turned into tree dust that blotted the sky.
As the ashes danced in the air, Mu Chen's silhouette trembled before he was blown back, leaving deep marks on the ground that were a few thousand feet long.
When he stabilised himself, Mu Chen's face had turned rosy before he calmed down and clenched his fist. His gaze was blazing with fighting intent as he looked at Ling Zhanzi. "What powerful Spiritual Energy. This is the strength of a Pinnacle Greater Earth Sovereign?"
Ling Zhanzi had also taken ten-odd steps back. But compared to Mu Chen, he was much more composed. However, there was a trace of darkness in his gaze at this moment.
Although Mu Chen was blown a few thousand feet away, the former did not suffer any injuries.
Lowering his head to look at his fist, there was a crystallised lustre flickering on the surface of his fist. It was Mu Chen's Spiritual Energy. When their fists came in contact, just when Ling Zhanzi was about to unleash his Spiritual Energy to destroy Mu Chen, the crystallised Spiritual Energy had quietly infiltrated into his arm.
What left Ling Zhanzi shocked was that even his Battle Spiritual Energy had swiftly calmed down in the path of the crystallised Spiritual Energy and nearly went out of his control.
But fortunately, he had swiftly circulated his Spiritual Energy to suppress and expel the crystallised Spiritual Energy. But it was also because of this that the might of his fist had been weakened.
Therefore, the fatal punch that was originally meant to destroy Mu Chen with a single punch had only managed to push Mu Chen back.
"This fellow's Spiritual Energy is so bizarre that even my Battle Spiritual Energy is being corroded."
Ling Zhanzi slightly knitted his brows. His Battle Spiritual Energy was extraordinary, to begin with, and its quality far exceeded ordinary Spiritual Energy. But now, it was being corroded by Mu Chen's Spiritual Energy. Didn't that mean that the crystallised Spiritual Energy that Mu Chen cultivated was superior to his Battle Spiritual Energy?
"Hmph, you do have some ability, but I'm afraid that it's not enough to change your fate!"
Ling Zhanzi coldly looked at Mu Chen. Although Mu Chen's crystallised Spiritual Energy was bizarre, he was only a Lesser Earth Sovereign.
"Interesting, I'll see how many times your Spiritual Energy can save you."
Ling Zhanzi indifferently said before he took a deep breath and more Battle Runes appeared on his arm. At the same time, a dangerous aura emanated from his body.
Sensing that dangerous aura, Mu Chen squinted his eyes. It looked like Ling Zhanzi was finally getting serious.
Whoosh!
Ling Zhanzi stood in the sky with more Battle Runes appearing on his arms, causing a violent gale to whistle between the heavens and earth. When Ling Zhanzi's aura reached the pinnacle, a lustre beamed from his eyes.
He slowly raised his hand, and as he did so, his palm began to expand at a visible speed. In just a few breaths' time, it had turned into a giant hand that blotted out the sun.
That massive hand was engraved with countless Battle Runes, along with torrential Battle Will. At that moment, that massive hand was akin to the hand of a War God that descended from the heavens.
The Spiritual Energy in this region boiled at this moment.
"Greater Divine Ability - Myriad Sky Seizing Hand!"
Ling Zhanzi indifferently looked at Mu Chen before his hand abruptly slammed down with a cold voice filled with killing intent that resounded between the heavens and earth.
When Ling Zhanzi's hand enveloped down, countless exclamations rang out in the surroundings of the plaza.
"It's actually a Greater Divine Ability?!"
"Ling Zhanzi is ruthless, he's really going all out."
"Then Mu Chen is in danger."
Many people looked at the screen in shock. Facing Ling Zhanzi's attack, even some Greater Earth Sovereigns felt their scalps going numb.
On one of the roofs around the white jade plaza, Liu Xingchen also lifted his head to look at the light screen. When he saw the giant hand, a look of fear flashed across his eyes.
When he fought with Ling Zhanzi previously, he had suffered quite a bit from this move.
Ling Zhanzi's hand seemed to contain millions of Battle Runes, along with his Spiritual Energy, making it extremely ferocious. Even a Greater Earth Sovereign might fall under this palm if they were careless.
Looking at the tiny silhouette beneath the massive hand, Liu Xingchen muttered to himself, "Mu Chen, can you block it?"
Under countless shocked gazes, Mu Chen also looked at the massive hand with a grave expression. He never expected that Ling Zhanzi would execute such a Greater Divine Ability.
"Truly the disciple of the Battle Emperor, his wealth is truly substantial." Mu Chen couldn't help sighing.
Up in the sky, Ling Zhanzi wore an indifferent expression with a cold light gathering in his eyes. When the massive hand was formed, he did not speak a single word and the hand descended from the sky, slamming towards Mu Chen's location without any mercy.
Boom!
When the gigantic palm fell, the ground immediately caved in.
A huge shadow shrouded over. Mu Chen raised his head and looked at the huge hand that covered the heavens and earth. Exhaling a mouthful of air, his hands suddenly formed seals.
Buzz!
Powerful Spiritual Energy exploded from his body in every direction. In the next instant, it formed into a huge light figure behind him. As the light figure condensed, it looked like it was substantial as it appeared behind Mu Chen.
The massive silhouette stood behind Mu Chen with a purplish-golden lustre that emanated a mysterious and unfathomable feeling.
Evidently, facing Ling Zhanzi's powerful attack, Mu Chen did not hesitate and had immediately summoned the Immortal Golden Body.
Huala!
As soon as the Immortal Golden Body appeared, its Spirit Energy formed a river. It raised its purplish-golden hand and a dazzling golden light burst out, then quickly condensed into 12 huge mysterious patterns.
Mu Chen's seals changed and the twelve runes soared into the sky like dragons, swiftly condensing into a massive purplish-golden umbrella.
"Divine Immortal Runes - Myriad Transformations!"
"Purplish-Golden Umbrella!"
Mu Chen waved his hand and the purplish-golden umbrella whistled up and clashed with the massive hand.
Rumble!
In that instant of collision, a thunderous roar resounded between the heavens and earth. Under the pressure of the massive hand, the purplish-golden umbrella was dented to an extreme angle, as if it was about to shatter.
But just when everyone thought that the purplish-golden umbrella couldn't bear it any longer, purplish-golden runes appeared on the umbrella and a mysterious purplish-golden lustre swept out into the horizon.
Boom!
The huge purple-gold umbrella, which had caved in, was just like a spring that had been compressed to its limit. It suddenly shot back. Following the rebound of the umbrella, an indescribably frightening strength poured onto that huge hand.
Rumble!
A thunderous roar resounded from the massive hand and everyone was shocked to see the runes on the massive hand crumbling.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
In just a few breaths' time, the massive hand was blown back and swiftly shrunk into Ling Zhanzi's normal hand.
Ling Zhanzi's face was dark. His hand was trembling and blood could be vaguely seen on it. Clearly, his hand had suffered some damage from the rebound from the previous clash.
"Interesting, interesting!" Ling Zhanzi's gaze was sharp as he looked at the Immortal Golden Body beneath Mu Chen's feet. That was the Sovereign Celestial Body that Mu Chen had cultivated. Furthermore, it was a mysterious Sovereign Celestial Body that he had never seen before, so it was definitely not simple!
Standing on the shoulder of the Immortal Golden Body, Mu Chen looked at Ling Zhanzi and slowly said, "Bring out your Sovereign Celestial Body. Otherwise, I'm afraid that you won't be able to do anything to me."
Facing Mu Chen's words, Ling Zhanzi no longer ridiculed him. That's because through the previous confrontation, he knew that he couldn't do anything to Mu Chen with the help of this Sovereign Celestial Body.
If he wanted to confront the Sovereign Celestial Body, then he could only bring out the power of the Sovereign Celestial Body.
Ling Zhanzi stared at Mu Chen and coldly said, "To be able to force me to bring out my Sovereign Celestial Body, Mu Chen, you can be proud even if you lose today!"
Boom!
When his voice resounded, a boundless lustre burst out from Ling Zhanzi's back and vaguely, there were cries of battle that resounded between the heavens and earth.
A massive silhouette slowly formed behind Ling Zhanzi and at the same time, a terrifying pressure gradually gathered between the heavens and earth.
As the pressure spread out, Ling Zhanzi's voice had also resounded between the heavens and earth.
"Show yourself, Primordial Battle Emperor Celestial Body!"
