Wherever he stood, some of the plants swiftly withered under the corrosion of the deathly aura. All life was being forcefully stripped away.
It was so much so that even the Spiritual Energy in this region had gradually turned grey with the deathly aura spreading out between the heavens and earth.
When Mu Chen saw this scene, he squinted his eyes. The deathly aura was too overbearing that even the Spiritual Energy between the heavens and earth was being corroded by it.
If the deathly aura invaded his body, how much damage would it cause?
Thinking about it, Mu Chen's eyes flashed with caution. It looked like he had to be wary of the demonic aura invading his body when fighting with the Fiend Clans.
Boom!
Although thoughts constantly flickered in his heart, Mu Chen did not hesitate and flicked his finger. Boundless Battle Will tore through space and enveloped towards Shi Tianyou, who called himself the Prince of the Corpse Demon Clan.
"Hmph!"
But this time, Shi Tianyou coldly snorted and did not dodge. On the contrary, he stretched out his hand with sinister demonic runes on his palm. In the next instant, a torrential corpse aura swept out like a smoke signal.
"Demonic Corpse Aura!"
As the corpse aura whistled out, it clashed with the boundless Battle Will and an ear-piercing noise rang out. Under the corrosion of the corpse aura, the Battle Will had been dissolved.
Boom!
Boom!
Demonic corpse smoke constantly shot out, resisting Mu Chen's Battle Will.
The confrontation had caused Mu Chen's face to turn even more grave. At this moment, he was controlling the Battle Will of the 3,000 Black Dragon Army. Ordinary Perfected Earth Sovereigns weren't his opponent, but he couldn't gain the slightest advantage against Shi Tianyou.
Evidently, although Shi Tianyou had yet to reach the Monarch Realm, his strength was definitely at the pinnacle of the Perfected Earth Sovereign Realm.
Roar!
With a grave expression, Mu Chen formed seals with both of his hands. The Battle Will of the 3,000 Black Dragon Army abruptly rolled and, in the next moment, an earth-shattering draconic roar resounded.
Boom!
The black Black Dragon Battle Spirit appeared in the sky again. It took a deep breath and then spat out a black dragon breath that was tens of thousands of feet long. It carried destructive fluctuations that swept towards Shi Tianyou.
Shi Tianyou, who was shrouded in corpse aura, looked at the black dragon breath with a sneer on his face. Shortly after, he opened his mouth and a streak of greyish-white light shot out from his mouth.
"Life-devouring Centipede!"
The streak of light expanded, and in a few breaths' time, it had turned into a massive grey skull. The skull opened and closed its mouth, as if it could devour all the vitality in this world.
Hu!
The grey skull widened its mouth and abruptly sucked in, devouring the Battle Will Dragon Breath that penetrated through space.
After devouring the Battle Will Dragon Breath, the runes on the grey skull swiftly flickered before it descended and hovered around Shi Tianyou with a cold light flickering in its eyes as it stared at Mu Chen.
Seeing that such a powerful attack was so easily resolved, Mu Chen couldn't help pursing his lips. One must know that when his dragon breath descended, Wu Tong had immediately fled. But facing Shi Tianyou, his attack was easily resolved.
Evidently, compared to Wu Tong, Shi Tianyou was much more powerful.
Standing in the sky, Shi Tianyou crossed his arms with a dense corpse aura in his eyes as he looked at Mu Chen and eerily smiled. "What other means do you have? Bring them all out. This Prince will let you know the gap between the geniuses of the Great Thousand World and my Fiend Clans."
"King Mu, let's join hands and kill this bastard!"
Jiang Long flew out with a ferocious gaze as he looked at Shi Tianyou. In the next moment, his body suddenly swelled and in just a few breaths' time, he had already turned into a giant with dragon scales growing on his body, making him look like a dragonman.
Boom!
He stomped his feet, causing the ground to crack and his silhouette shot towards Shi Tianyou like a cannonball.
When Mu Chen saw this scene, he did not stop him. Shi Tianyou was truly abnormal, so he had to capture him as soon as possible. As for a one-on-one battle, Mu Chen wasn't that stupid.
Thus, he did not hesitate to control the Black Dragon Battle Spirit. As he roared, a dragon claw stretched out and slammed towards Shi Tianyou.
According to his estimations, Shi Tianyou's strength should be at the pinnacle of the Perfected Earth Sovereign Realm in the Great Thousand World. But as long as he wasn't a Monarch, Mu Chen had nothing to fear.
When Jiang Long and Mu Chen made a move at the same time, their attacks were extremely violent. It was so much so that even Shi Tianyou had started to frantically circulate his corpse aura to resist the joint attack of Mu Chen and Jiang Long with the grey skull.
In the blink of an eye, violent fluctuations wreaked havoc in this space, causing cracks to appear on the ground. It was as if the heavens and earth were collapsing.
Although Shi Tianyou's strength was at the pinnacle of the Perfected Earth Sovereign Realm, he was no longer as calm as before under the joint attack of Mu Chen and Jiang Long. For a brief moment, he showed signs of being in a disadvantageous position.
When Mu Chen saw this situation, he willed in his heart and the black and white Mu Chen also joined the battle. Instantly, their momentum soared and even Shi Tianyou started to retreat.
In the distant sky, Wu Tong's face was filled with shock as he watched this battle. The appearance of Shi Tianyou had also left him greatly shocked. He never expected that there would be a Fiend Clans tailing them.
Furthermore, the strength that Shi Tianyou had displayed had also left him fearful. If it was a one-on-one battle, he would probably fall in Shi Tianyou's hands in less than ten rounds.
"This place is too dangerous, and we can't stay here for long."
Wu Tong's face changed with thoughts of retreating in his heart. With the Black Dragon Army in Mu Chen's hands, there's no meaning for him to stay here. As for helping Mu Chen deal with Shi Tianyou, it's impossible. At this moment, he wished that Mu Chen and the rest would die in the hands of the Fiend Clans.
Boom!
As thoughts circulated in Wu Tong's mind, Shi Tianyou shattered a torrent of Battle Will with a palm before turning around and throwing a punch at Jiang Long, who was covered in dragon scales.
Boom!
The terrifying power shattered space and Jiang Long's silhouette was blown back. Shi Tianyou's body trembled as he looked at the black and white Mu Chens that were swiftly surrounding him with a flash of darkness in his eyes.
He had fallen into a disadvantageous position in this confrontation.
"I can't be entangled with them anymore."
Shi Tianyou's gaze flickered as his silhouette suddenly dissipated. When he reappeared, he was a myriad feet away with a mouthful of black blood spewing from his mouth.
The blood was like a sharp arrow that shot across the horizon, shooting into the center of the brows of the Monarch's corpse that was floating in the sky.
Boom!
The Monarch's corpse suddenly opened its eyes and a torrential demonic aura surged. Its silhouette moved and appeared behind Wu Tong before grabbing onto the latter's head.
"Argh!"
The sudden attack shocked Wu Tong, and he let out a shriek as he frantically struggled.
However, the Monarch's corpse had firmly grabbed onto Wu Tong and with a jolt of his palm, it shattered Wu Tong's head. Torrential corpse aura violently poured into Wu Tong's body, causing his body to swiftly wither.
When Mu Chen and Jiang Long saw this scene, their faces changed before they made a move at the same time. Boundless Spiritual Energy turned into an attack that swept towards the Monarch's corpse.
Whoosh!
The Monarch's corpse trembled and Wu Tong was thrown towards Mu Chen's group.
Looking at Wu Tong being thrown over, Mu Chen squinted his eyes and barked, "Retreat!"
He could clearly see the vitality in Wu Tong's eyes dissipating with corpse aura vaguely wriggling on the surface of his skin.
Boom!
Just when Mu Chen and the rest retreated, Wu Tong's body exploded and his flesh turned into corpse aura that swept out like black clouds.
Mu Chen and the rest did not dare to come in contact with that corpse aura, so they retreated.
"Haha, this prince will remember today's battle. When this prince gains control of the Monarch's corpse, we will definitely have another chat!"
When Mu Chen and the rest retreated, Shi Tianyou's cold voice resounded between the heavens and earth.
However, his voice was a little weaker than before. Perhaps it was due to the price he had to pay to use the Monarch's corpse.
"Shit, he's trying to escape!" Jiang Long was startled.
When Mu Chen raised his head, he saw Shi Tianyou and the Monarch's corpse converging together. At this moment, the latter lowered his head and looked at Mu Chen with a sinister gaze filled with corpse aura.
A cruel smile rose on the corner of Shi Tianyou's lips as he made a throat-slitting gesture towards Mu Chen.
"This prince will definitely kill you the next time we meet!"
As he laughed, his silhouette turned into a black mist that enveloped the Monarch's corpse. The space behind him was corroded and the black mist drilled into it, disappearing.
Along with Shi Tianyou's retreat, this space gradually returned to its calm state. Only the mess on the ground revealed the battle that took place.
Looking at the direction where Shi Tianyou disappeared, Mu Chen knitted his brows.
Indeed, the Fiend Clans had also charged into the Primordial Sacred Abyss. It looked like this trip to the Sacred Abyss would be extremely troublesome.
