"Then are you ready to die?"
Violet Cloud True Lord?
33?
A calm voice resounded across the heavens and earth without any ripples. If these words were spoken by someone else, it would probably be a joke. But at this moment, no one in the heavens and earth could laugh.
Because in the Northern Region, apart from the other two overlords, everyone else could only obediently wait for death after the Violet Cloud True Lord said those words.
But now, there was probably a third.
Therefore, under countless gazes, Mu Chen ignored the Violet Cloud True Lord and looked at Venerable Thunder Note and the Golden Eagle Emperor with a smile. "Aren't the two of you going to join me?"
He could naturally tell that Venerable Thunder Note and the Golden Eagle Emperor also wanted to kill him, but surprisingly, he wasn't afraid because of this. Instead, he directly provoked them.
The faces of the experts in the Northern Region Plains twitched. Is Mu Chen really that confident, or is he too arrogant?
Isn't provoking the Violet Cloud True Lord enough? Does he really want to drag Venerable Thunder Note and the Golden Eagle Emperor along with him?
If the three Overlords were to take action at the same time, they believed that Mu Chen would definitely die today.
Venerable Thunder Note and the Golden Eagle Emperor narrowed their eyes at Mu Chen's actions. A cold light gathered in the depths of their eyes as they stared at Mu Chen as if they wanted to see through him.
They also couldn't understand why Mu Chen was so arrogant.
Facing their gazes, Mu Chen greeted them with a smile. There wasn't the slightest intention of retreating in his pitch-black eyes. Instead, they were blazing with fighting spirit.
Venerable Thunder Note and the Golden Eagle Emperor's eyes flickered. Mu Chen was still so calm in this situation. If he wasn't a lunatic, then he must have a trump card.
Since they could become the overlords of the Northern Region, they naturally had to be cautious. Therefore, they were more inclined to the latter.
Thus, Venerable Thunder Note smiled and said, "You're the Purple Cloud Lord's prey now. It's not our place to interfere."
Regardless of whether Mu Chen was a lunatic or had his own methods, they would be able to easily see through Mu Chen's strength with the Violet Cloud Lord's probing.
Right now, the enemy's methods were still unknown. If they acted rashly and if Mu Chen had any means to perish together with them, they would probably be dragged into it as well.
Currently, they could calmly sit on the fishing platform. As long as they understood Mu Chen's methods, they would naturally let Mu Chen know just how miserable his fate would be if he dared to show off in front of them.
Mu Chen looked at the two of them, who did not move at all, before he chuckled and said, "What a pity."
The Purple Cloud Perfected Lord's eyelids drooped and he said indifferently, "You're about to die. Why bother with these little tricks?"
With a smile, Mu Chen replied, "Since that's the case, then let me experience how far you are from the Heavenly Sovereign Realm."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Divine Pagoda shone brightly in his eyes. The spiritual energy in his body swept out like a flood and poured into the Divine Pagoda. After being converted and amplified, the spiritual energy returned to his body.
Boom!
A crystallised lustre burst out from Mu Chen's body, causing his clothes to flutter in the wind and the strength of his Spiritual Energy rose.
In just a few breaths' time, the Spiritual Energy fluctuation that burst out from Mu Chen's body had exceeded some Pinnacle Perfected Earth Sovereigns.
Looking at this scene, everyone burst into an uproar. Mu Chen was clearly only a Quasi-Perfected Earth Sovereign, but the Spiritual Energy that burst out from his body was even stronger than a Pinnacle Perfected Earth Sovereign.
Furthermore, the crystalline Spiritual Energy was extremely mystical and extraordinary.
As the boundless Spiritual Energy whistled in his body, Mu Chen clenched his fist and threw a jab forth.
Boom!
A massive crystallised fist flew out, containing a powerful might that caused space to explode as it flew towards the Violet Cloud Lord like a comet.
However, facing Mu Chen's ferocious fist, the Violet Cloud Lord coldly smiled. He did not put up any defences and crossed his arms, allowing Mu Chen's fist to fly over.
Boom!
The fist slammed against the Violet Cloud Lord's body, causing space to violently tremble, as if it was on the verge of collapsing.
When the fist dissipated, everyone's gazes abruptly narrowed. They saw that the Violet Cloud Lord still had his arms crossed before his chest without moving.
It was as if Mu Chen's ferocious fist couldn't even move the Violet Cloud Lord's body.
Mu Chen, who had been sweeping through everything before him, was finally obstructed at this moment.
"You're like an ant." The Violet Cloud Lord eerily smiled.
Venerable Thunder Note and the Golden Eagle Emperor's gazes flickered. Could it be that this fellow was only putting on an act?
That attack actually couldn't shake the Violet Cloud Lord's defences.
Under the pitiful gazes, Mu Chen looked at the Violet Cloud Lord in astonishment and smiled. "You've truly come in contact with a trace of the profundity of the Heavenly Sovereign Realm."
Rumour had it that Heavenly Sovereigns could fuse themselves with the heavens and earth to form a powerful defensive force. Any attack that struck their body would have a large portion of the power dispersed into the heavens and earth that they fused with.
This was the so-called unity of the heavens and earth.
The Violet Cloud Lord had clearly dispersed Mu Chen's attack into the heavens and earth, while he only suffered a portion of the attack. Thus, he could naturally withstand it.
In the past, Mu Chen had never fought with an expert that had come in contact with the Heavenly Sovereign Realm, so he naturally had to probe the other party.
"At least you have some eyesight, but it's a pity that it's too late." The Violet Cloud Lord's face was grim with killing intent gathering in his eyes.
Mu Chen shook his head with a smile. "Wait till you've reached the Heavenly Sovereign Realm and can be one with the heavens and earth. Right now … your fake unity of the heavens and earth isn't as powerful as you think."
"You're courting death. You still dare to be stubborn at this moment!" The Violet Cloud Lord coldly said.
However, Mu Chen wasn't bothered about it. He formed seals with a single hand and a purplish-golden lustre burst out behind him, forming into a massive silhouette.
He had evidently brought out the Immortal Golden Body.
Buzz!
Buzz! Purplish-golden runes appeared on the Immortal Golden Body like a massive dragon that coiled around him.
"Divine Immortal Runes - Immortal Golden Bow."
Mu Chen stretched his hand out and over a hundred Divine Immortal Runes whistled over, gathering in his hand. In just a few breaths' time, the massive purplish-golden lustre had turned into a golden bow.
Holding onto the bow, Mu Chen indifferently looked at the Violet Cloud Lord and pulled the bow. A purplish-golden lustre violently gathered on the bowstring, forming into a golden arrow that looked as if it was forged from gold and was covered in profound runes.
At the same time, Mu Chen's sleeves trembled as a lump of jelly-like golden liquid flew out and enveloped the golden arrow within it.
The golden liquid swiftly solidified. The glow on the golden arrow was completely withdrawn at this moment, causing it to no longer appear dazzling. Instead, it had become ordinary.
The golden jelly-like liquid was the treasure that Mu Chen had exchanged for with Demon Slayer Points in the Great Thousand Pavilion, the Vajra Spirit Breaking Liquid.
Pointing the golden arrow at the Violet Cloud Lord, Mu Chen smiled. "Why don't you show it to me this time?"
Buzz!
As he spoke, he loosened his fingers and the bowstring trembled, before a faint golden lustre shot out.
Disregarding the gaze, it moved.
In that instant when the golden lustre shot out, the Violet Cloud Lord's pupils abruptly narrowed. He could sense an indescribable sharp aura coming from afar that made him feel a stinging pain on his skin.
This made him feel overwhelmed with shock. The might of Mu Chen's arrow was beyond his imagination. Even with his realm of being one with the heavens and man, it was impossible for him to completely endure it.
"That fellow is truly capable."
The Violet Cloud Lord's face was dark as he looked at the golden lustre that was swiftly expanding in his eyes. He no longer dared to delay and took a deep breath before stomping his foot. A violet lustre spread out and a massive violet silhouette appeared behind him.
It was naturally the Sovereign Celestial Body that he had cultivated.
"Violet Emperor Star Plucking Finger!"
The Purple Cloud Perfected Lord shouted in a deep voice. His hand seals changed, and two of his fingers curled before he suddenly pointed at the air.
The massive violet silhouette had also stretched out two fingers that were enveloped in a violet lustre, as if it had turned into a violet starry sky that was about to pluck the stars.
The Violet Cloud Lord's move had instantly caused an uproar. Everyone knew that the Violet Emperor Star Plucking Finger was one of the Violet Cloud Lord's ultimate moves, but he had actually executed it at this moment.
Evidently, Mu Chen's attack had made the Violet Cloud Lord feel threatened.
Whoosh!
Under the attention of countless gazes, a faint golden light streaked across the horizon. A couple of breaths later, it heavily collided with the giant purple finger under everyone's attentive and breathless gazes.
(Let me inform everyone that the Wudong TV series will start filming on the 14th. As for when it will be done, I'm not sure. Just wait and see.)
