Hearing the enraged roar, Mu Chen held onto Qing Shuang's waist and turned around, indifferently looking at the commander of the Flame Demon Clan, who was enveloped in black flames.
At this moment, the latter was looking at him with a sinister gaze, akin to a ferocious beast.
But facing his rage, Mu Chen did not have any expression on his face. He cast a glance into the distance and saw that Qing Ling, who had escaped earlier, had also turned around.
"Mu Chen?"
When she saw Mu Chen's silhouette, she was briefly stunned. When she saw the unconscious Qing Shuang in Mu Chen's embrace, her gaze turned a little complicated. She never expected that the one to save them would be Mu Chen.
Mu Chen gently patted and Spiritual Energy enveloped Qing Shuang's body, sending her to Qing Ling's side. "Look after her."
Qing Ling immediately caught Qing Shuang and bit on her rosy lips as she said to Mu Chen, "Thank you!"
In the past, she did not place Mu Chen's cultivation in the Greater Earth Sovereign Realm in her eyes. Sometimes, she even felt that Mu Chen was too arrogant and untactful when he refused their help.
But right now, she felt a little regretful and ashamed of her previous thoughts.
The youth before her possessed the bloodline of the Ancient Buddha Clan, but he did not obtain any cultivation resources from the Ancient Buddha Clan. But even so, his achievements weren't any weaker than Young Masters like Mo Xin and Xuan Luo.
Speaking from a certain degree, he was probably more outstanding than Xuan Luo and Mo Xin.
"Be careful, he's powerful."
Qing Ling retreated, but she still couldn't help reminding. After all, she had witnessed the strength of this commander of the Flame Demon Clan. Even Qing Shuang could only barely confront him, even at her peak.
Mu Chen lightly nodded his head. His gaze had been fixed on the commander of the Flame Demon Clan since the beginning, since he felt a dangerous aura.
The reason why he could make the commander of the Flame Demon Clan look so pathetic was because he caught the latter off guard. Now that the latter was prepared, it wouldn't be easy for him to achieve the same result again.
The black and white Mu Chens also flew over and hovered beside Mu Chen. The three of them were staring at the commander of the Flame Demon Clan like tigers preying on their prey.
Under the gazes of the three Mu Chens, the violence in the eyes of the commander of the Flame Demon Clan suddenly retreated and was replaced with graveness and sharpness.
His eyesight and perception were much stronger than the two experts of the Flame Demon Clan that were killed by Mu Chen. So he could sense that although Mu Chen only seemed to be a Greater Earth Sovereign, his fighting prowess far exceeded what he looked like on the surface.
This was something that the commander of the Flame Demon Clan had already figured out from Lightning's previous confrontation.
"Brat, hand those two women over and this Commander will let you leave!" The commander of the Flame Demon Clan's gaze flickered as he eerily said.
However, Mu Chen only smiled in response to his request. Thereafter, his gaze turned as sharp as a blade as he coldly said, "Scram."
"You're courting death!"
The commander of the Flame Demon Clan's eyes surged with violence. Although Mu Chen didn't look easy to deal with, he definitely couldn't be forgiven for speaking to him in such a manner!
"I was just taking advantage of your sneak attack earlier. Since you're courting death, then this Commander will fulfil your wish!"
The commander of the Flame Demon Clan sinisterly smiled as he abruptly stomped his foot, causing the entire sky to tremble. Black flames swept out from his body, causing the temperature in this region to instantly soar. It was so much so that even the air had started to burn.
A peerlessly powerful pressure erupted from the Flame Demon commander's body.
Sensing the pressure, Qing Ling's face couldn't help changing. The commander of the Flame Demon Clan's strength had definitely reached the Pinnacle Perfected Earth Sovereign Realm.
Facing such an opponent, even Xuan Luo and Mo Xin would feel troubled.
"Flame Demon Palm!"
The commander of the Flame Demon Clan looked at Mu Chen with a sinister gaze as he abruptly slapped his palm. Instantly, the black flames gathered together and formed into a massive demonic palm of flames that covered the sky as it slapped down towards Mu Chen.
Before the palm wind even landed, the ground below had already collapsed, and the forest was instantly turned into a sea of fire.
As the demonic palm whistled down, Mu Chen narrowed his eyes. Shortly after, he deeply inhaled a mouthful of air and formed seals with a single hand. In an instant, three boundless Spiritual Energy streaks swept out from the three of them.
Roar!
The three Spiritual Energy lights gathered together and expanded. It was like a pillar that could split the heavens and earth as it clashed with the demonic palm without any hesitation.
Boom!
The heavens and earth trembled as black flames and Spiritual Energy rays of light wreaked havoc as they exploded.
Rustle!
When the two ferocious attacks clashed, the Flame Demon Clan's commander appeared before Mu Chen like a phantom. In his palm, the pearl that was blazing with black flames suddenly shot out countless beams of fire.
"Spiritual Binding Demonic Net!"
Those beams swiftly intertwined, forming into a boundless net that instantly enveloped the three Mu Chen's.
"Heh, even those Perfected Earth Sovereigns in your Great Thousand World will definitely die if they fall into my Demonic Net!" The commander of the Flame Demon Clan sneered after his attack succeeded.
Boom!
But when he sneered, a dazzling Spiritual Energy burst out from the Demonic Net like a blazing sun. In the next instant, a massive purplish-golden silhouette appeared from the Demonic Net.
The purplish-golden lustre seemed to contain an immortal aura as it corroded and destroyed the net of flames.
"Divine Immortal Runes - Myriad Transformations - Divine Immortal Fist!"
When the Weave shattered, a deep roar resounded. Shortly after, the commander of the Flame Demon Clan narrowed his eyes. He saw a massive purplish-golden fist that was roughly a myriad feet in the sky. It was like a giant god, along with a terrifying power, shattering space with a single punch as it ruthlessly smashed towards him.
"Flame Demon Shield!"
The commander of the Flame Demon Clan immediately held onto the black demonic pearl and blazing flames swept out, forming into a massive black flaming shield with sinister skull runes engraved on it.
Boom!
The purplish-golden fist heavily slammed against the demonic shield and the two terrifying forces clashed together. However, the fist was emanating an immortal light that seemed to be able to suppress the blazing demonic flames.
Boom!
Thus, the demonic shield only lasted for a few breaths before it exploded. The commander of the Flame Demon Clan was like a cannonball as he flew out and slammed against a mountain, causing the entire mountain to crumble.
But very quickly, rocks flew out and the commander of the Flame Demon Clan soared into the sky. He stood in the sky with a dark expression as he looked into the distance. There was a massive purplish-golden silhouette standing in the sky with three Mu Chen's coldly looking at him on its shoulder.
"This is the so-called Sovereign Celestial Body of the Great Thousand World?"
The commander of the Flame Demon Clan's eyes flickered with an eerie lustre as a ruthless light flashed in his eyes.
"Alright, I'll let you experience the means of my Flame Demon Clan today!"
The commander of the Flame Demon Clan joined his hands together as black flames violently blazed in his eyes, as if they were trying to incinerate his eyes.
Buzz!
Buzz! The sky behind him violently trembled with black flames gathering. A few breaths later, a black demonic figure that was a few myriad feet in size had condensed behind the commander of the Flame Demon Clan.
That demonic statue was covered in black flames. At a glance, it was filled with endless brutality and killing intent.
A terrifying pressure was emitted from the golem's body.
When Mu Chen saw this scene from afar, he slightly narrowed his eyes with shock on his face. He clearly did not expect that the commander of the Flame Demon Clan would be so troublesome to deal with. His means were truly shocking.
According to his estimations, an ordinary Perfected Earth Sovereign wouldn't be able to withstand a single move from the commander of the Flame Demon Clan.
Huff.
Mu Chen inhaled a mouthful of air as his face turned solemn. The strength of the commander of the Flame Demon Clan was indeed powerful. It looked like he would have to undergo an earth-shattering battle if he wanted to deal with him today.
Forming seals with a single hand, the Immortal Golden Body beneath Mu Chen's feet burst out with a purplish-golden lustre. As the lustre circulated, a powerful pressure started to spread out.
But just when the two sides were in a state of confrontation, a powerful cold aura suddenly surged between the heavens and earth. Mu Chen and the commander of the Flame Demon Clan were startled before they directed their gazes over. They saw that Qing Shuang, who was initially unconscious, had already awakened. She held onto an icy longsword and coldly looked at the commander of the Flame Demon Clan.
"What a troublesome woman!"
When the commander of the Flame Demon Clan saw this scene, his face instantly sank. At this moment, Mu Chen was already a troublesome opponent for him to deal with, and if Qing Shuang was added into the mix, then even he wouldn't be able to deal with them.
The commander of the Flame Demon Clan's gaze flickered and, in the next moment, he gave Mu Chen a cold smile. "Consider yourself lucky this time. If we meet again, I will use the demonic statue to tear your Sovereign Celestial Body apart!"
As he spoke, the demonic statue beneath him turned into a black tornado with flames blazing within it. It swept the commander of the Flame Demon Clan away with a shocking speed.
Mu Chen also never expected that that fellow would be so decisive. He was briefly stunned before he looked in the direction that the commander of the Flame Demon Clan escaped in and knitted his brows.
Although the previous confrontation was brief, he had experienced how powerful the experts of the Fiend Clans were.
That fellow should be amongst the top amongst the experts of the Fiend Clans that entered the Primordial Sacred Abyss. However, he had no idea how many of them entered this level.
Mu Chen slowly retracted his gaze and pursed his lips. It looked like it wouldn't be easy for him to obtain the Eight-Divisional Pagoda.
