Under the blood rain, everyone was silent. The power that the Blood Demon Monarch had displayed was too powerful. Just a drop of blood had sent Mu Chen, who couldn't be obstructed, flying away.
Facing such a level of power, the residents practically couldn't muster up the heart to resist. If Mu Chen was defeated today, perhaps they could commit suicide, which would be a form of freedom.
While the residents were intimidated by the Blood Demon Monarch's might, the chaos in the Blood Demon Mountain turned into cheers along with the appearance of the Blood Demon Monarch.
Although all the Blood Demon Kings had been killed, their Blood Fiend Clan would not decline as long as the Blood Demon Monarch existed. On the contrary, they would flourish.
Mu Chen paid no attention to those voices. His gaze was fixed on the Blood Demon Monarch with a cold light gathering in his eyes.
Boom!
Stomping his feet, his silhouette soared into the sky with a myriad of spiritual lustre blossoming like a blazing sun. Behind him, the black and white Mu Chens closely followed and the three streaks of light pounced towards the Blood Demon Monarch.
Roar!
Mu Chen's body trembled and the True Dragon Spirit appeared. As it roared, it had integrated into Mu Chen's body. Instantly, dragon scales appeared on his body, akin to a layer of armor that covered him.
A pair of phoenix wings unfolded on his back. As they flapped, a violent gale blew and with a single flap, it had directly pierced through space.
Before the battle, Mu Chen had immediately mobilized the True Dragon and Phoenix Spirits and fused them with his body, so that he could bring out his fighting strength to the limits.
Rustle!
Mu Chen took the lead and appeared before the Blood Demon Monarch before throwing a jab forth. Spiritual radiance gathered on his fist and formed into a layer of spiritual crystals that contained destructive prowess.
This was a fist that not even the Greater Blood Demon King dared to face head-on.
However, the Blood Demon Monarch only cast an indifferent glance before he stretched out his hand and gently brushed it against Mu Chen's fist.
Dang!
A metallic sound rang out as the fist and palm collided. Immediately, Mu Chen's body shot downwards as if he had suffered a serious injury. Like a meteorite, he heavily shot into the ground.
When Mu Chen attracted the Blood Demon Monarch's attention, the black and white Mu Chen made a move at the same time. Their palms, filled with boundless Spiritual Energy, pierced through space and slammed against the Blood Demon Monarch's back.
But such a ferocious joint punch couldn't shake the Blood Demon Monarch's body in the slightest. A crimson light flashed in the Blood Demon Monarch's eyes and a ferocious crimson light swept out from his back.
Bang!
The black and white Mu Chen was swept up by the bloody light and shot backwards, crashing into the two nearby mountain peaks, causing them to collapse.
In just a few breaths of time, the joint attack of Mu Chen and his two clones had collapsed. Furthermore, they were all injured. The power of a Demon Monarch was truly unparalleled.
The Blood Demon Monarch stood high up and looked down at the huge crater in the ground. That was where Mu Chen's main body had fallen. His eyes flashed as he pointed with his finger.
Boom!
A ray of blood light shot out from the tip of his finger. It expanded with the wind and turned into a giant blood-red python. The giant python was ferocious and vicious. As it swallowed, even the fragments of space were devoured by it. It dived down and finally charged into the bottomless pit.
Boom!
When the python dived into the crater, a muffled noise resounded. But in the next moment, the crimson lustre spread out and the python suddenly crumbled.
Up in the sky, the Blood Demon Monarch squinted his eyes.
Torrential Battle Will soared into the sky from the crater with thousands of silhouettes slowly rising up. Mu Chen's silhouette stood amongst the army with boundless Battle Will akin to an ocean surging around him.
"Spirit of Battle Will!"
Mu Chen's voice resounded and the thousands of warriors of the Black Dragon Army responded in unison. In the next moment, billions of Battle Will soared into the sky and condensed into a Battle Will Dragon that was a few myriad feet in size.
The huge dragon coiled around, emanating a terrifying pressure.
This time, Mu Chen had mobilized a total of 6,000 Black Dragon Army, which was practically the limit that he could control. If he used any more, then the Battle Will of the Black Dragon Army would suffer a backlash.
At the same time, the Battle Will of the 6,000 Black Dragon Army was more powerful than any in the past.
Roar!
The Battle Will Dragon roared towards the sky before it shot forth with a massive claw that covered the sky as it slammed towards the Blood Demon Monarch.
Under the claw, space constantly collapsed.
Looking at the claw, the Blood Demon Monarch stretched his hand out. Crimson lustre gathered and his palm expanded to a myriad feet in size before he slammed it against the Battle Will Dragon's claw.
Boom!
A violent storm wreaked havoc in the sky like a destructive gale that caused the sky to darken in its path.
Roar!
As the storm wreaked havoc, the Battle Will Dragon unleashed a furious roar and was blown away. At the same time, the Blood Demon Monarch's body trembled and he took several steps back.
When Mu Chen saw this scene, his eyes squinted. He never expected that the Battle Will of the 6,000 Black Dragon Army would only be able to push the Blood Demon Monarch back.
"Ruler Mu, you need 10,000 Black Dragon Army's Battle Will to confront this Monarch." Standing behind Mu Chen, the Commander of the Black Dragon Army, Jiang Long, spoke out.
Mu Chen pursed his lips. With his current strength, it was already his limit to control 6,000 Black Dragon Army's Battle Will. If he controlled any more, he would definitely suffer a backlash. At that time, he would be defeated before the Blood Demon Monarch even made a move.
Thus, he could tell that there was a huge gap between him and the Monarch.
The Blood Demon Monarch stabilized his silhouette in the sky and looked at Mu Chen. "You have quite a few means. It's no wonder why you can force my Blood Fiend Clan into such a pathetic state.
"But no matter how many means you have, you can't make up for the gap between us."
When he finished speaking, he suddenly opened his mouth and a terrifying suction force burst out. His mouth was akin to a black hole that sucked in the heavens and earth.
That suction force was mostly directed at the Battle Will Dragon. After that, Mu Chen's face changed. No matter how he tried to resist, the Battle Will Dragon couldn't resist the suction force and was devoured by the Blood Demon Monarch.
Poof!
When the Battle Will Dragon was devoured, the 6,000 Black Dragon Army spewed mouthfuls of blood. Evidently, they were heavily injured.
Looking at this scene with a grim expression, Mu Chen said to Jiang Long, "You guys can go back first."
"Ruler Mu, please be careful."
Jiang Long said with guilt. But he knew that the Black Dragon Army was heavily injured, so he couldn't help Mu Chen even if he stayed behind. Thus, he waved his hand and left with the Black Dragon Army.
Up in the sky, the Blood Demon Monarch indifferently looked down at Mu Chen. "What other means do you have? Bring them out and let this Monarch play to my heart's content. Perhaps I'll let you die a quick death."
Mu Chen knitted his brows. This was the first time that he had fought with a Monarch, and only after fighting did he understand how powerful that power was.
On the other hand, one could imagine the gap between him and the Heavenly Sovereign Realm. In the past, he had underestimated the gap.
Even though he had many tricks up his sleeves, he still paled in comparison to a supreme expert of this level.
"Perhaps I can only try that move."
After a brief pondering, Mu Chen gradually closed his eyes. His clothes had also gradually calmed down and stuck to his body. No matter how the wind blew, it wouldn't budge.
Looking at Mu Chen, the Blood Demon Monarch faintly smiled and crossed his arms. He had no intention of obstructing Mu Chen, since he knew that no matter what means Mu Chen had, he wouldn't be able to overcome the gap between the two of them.
As Mu Chen closed his eyes, the sound of wind and rain gradually disappeared. It was as if he was the only one standing between the heavens and earth.
His heart was like an ancient well without any ripples. It was so much so that he had even forgotten about the Blood Demon Monarch.
He had no idea how long this state lasted, but suddenly, two fine fluctuations appeared in Mu Chen's perception. It was akin to two stones falling into a pond, causing ripples to spread out.
The two ripples grew increasingly rapid. In the end, there seemed to be two specks of spiritual light slowly rising from within the ripples.
"True Spirit Incarnation."
A soft murmur resounded in the silence. When the murmur resounded, the two spiritual lights blossomed and turned into two silhouettes. They were naturally the black and white Mu Chen.
However, they weren't real clones, but the two True Spirits at the core of the clones. Back then, when Mu Chen cultivated the Three Pures, the two True Spirits separated from his body and became his clones.
In the past, Mu Chen couldn't sense the True Spirits of his two clones, but he had obtained some comprehension from the Heavenly Emperor in the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, which allowed him to vaguely sense them. However, it was still hazy and he couldn't sense them.
But right now, Mu Chen, who was facing a great enemy, finally sensed something and successfully summoned the two True Spirits.
"The fusion of the True Spirits is the Three Combination Stage."
Mu Chen muttered in his heart as the two True Spirits flew out and fused with him.
In the outside world, the black and white Mu Chen appeared before Mu Chen and took a step forth. The two of them had actually stepped into Mu Chen's body.
When the two clones disappeared, Mu Chen's eyes slowly opened at this moment. His pitch-black pupils flickered with an indescribable might spreading out with every movement, causing the heavens and earth to tremble.
At this moment, his robes, which had not moved in the slightest, began to flutter despite the absence of wind.
Looking at the changes in Mu Chen, the Blood Demon Monarch's eyes flashed with a strange light before he indifferently smiled. "Finally, it's getting a little interesting."
