Boundless light erupted from Xuan Zun's body along with an endless pressure that wreaked havoc, causing space to tremble, wind to rise and clouds to churn. The entire world trembled because of this pressure.
In the Great Thousand World, Immortal Heavenly Sovereigns were only inferior to Saint Heavenly Sovereigns. It could be said that this was the highest level in the Great Thousand World.
In any supreme force, even in the Ancient Buddha Clan, an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign would possess a high status. So the appearance of an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign was truly terrifying.
The leaders of the various forces had grave expressions as they inwardly sighed at the might of an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign. At the same time, they looked at Mu Chen's direction with interest. They had no idea how the latter would deal with such an expert.
Under the countless gazes, Mu Chen's expression was grave as well. Although he was powerful, he did not dare to underestimate a genuine Immortal Heavenly Sovereign.
Huff!
A snake-like white aura gushed out from Mu Chen's mouth. In the next instant, boundless spiritual light burst out from his body as well. His body had instantly turned into a dazzling Spiritual Physique with boundless Spiritual Energy fluctuating in space.
At this moment, words were useless. He had fought three rounds, and only this one could be considered his victory. Otherwise, all his previous efforts would be for naught.
Furthermore, since Xuan Guang had admitted that he had contributed to Qing Yanjing's imprisonment, then Mu Chen naturally wouldn't be courteous with them. Today, he would forcefully take the seat of the Elder's Hall from the Xuan Bloodline.
Just treat it as interest.
Boom!
The first to make a move was Xuan Zun. He did not execute any Divine Ability. He only stomped his feet and his silhouette tore through space like a meteorite as he threw a jab towards Mu Chen.
That fist wasn't fanciful, but under the control of the Immortal Heavenly Sovereign Physique, it was akin to a fist of destruction. If an ordinary Spirit Heavenly Sovereign was struck by it, they would be heavily injured, even with their powerful Spiritual Physiques.
Looking at the fist, Mu Chen squinted his eyes, but he did not retreat. On the contrary, his eyes blazed with fighting intent. He wanted to test how powerful an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign was!
Thinking about it, Mu Chen laughed. He did not retreat, but clenched his hand into a fist. Spiritual light blossomed on his fist and endless Spiritual Energy poured into it as he threw a punch forth. Under everyone's shocked gazes, his fist clashed with the Xuan Sovereign.
Boom!
An ear-piercing explosion seemed to explode between the heavens and earth as the terrifying shockwave violently wreaked havoc. The white jade platform beneath their feet did not explode, but the mountain peaks on the majestic main peak exploded and were razed to the ground.
Boom!
As the shock wave wreaked havoc, Mu Chen's silhouette was blown back with his feet dragging on the white jade platform. The high temperature even caused his feet to burn.
"Arrogant."
Xuan Sovereign's silhouette was akin to a boulder as he coldly looked at Mu Chen.
Mu Chen actually dared to clash with him, an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign, with his cultivation as a Spirit Heavenly Sovereign. He was simply overestimating his own abilities.
Mu Chen lowered his head and looked at his fist. On the surface of his crystal-like fist, there was a fine crack. This was caused by the collision earlier.
"The Immortal Grade Spiritual Physique is actually so powerful."
His gaze flickered. He knew how powerful an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign was. Just the Immortal Grade Spiritual Physique alone was several times stronger than his Spirit Grade Spiritual Physique.
It was no wonder why Xuan Guang and the others weren't optimistic about him challenging an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign. It turned out that an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign could suppress a Spirit Heavenly Sovereign with his Immortal Grade Spiritual Physique.
"Brat, I'll let you know that there's always someone better out there. It's good for you to be talented, but if you think too highly of yourself, then you're courting death!"
A ferocious light flashed in Xuan Zun's eyes as he sneered. His silhouette burst forth and his Spiritual Physique was akin to a Peerless Saint Artifact as it charged towards Mu Chen.
Xuan Sovereign was shrewd and knew that he had the advantage of an Immortal Grade Spiritual Physique. Thus, he didn't even bother to use any Divine Abilities and relied on his Spiritual Physique to force Mu Chen to clash.
When Mu Chen saw Xuan Sovereign's ferocious aura, a cold light flashed in his eyes. "Old fogey, don't try to take advantage of your seniority. Otherwise, you'll only be asking to be humiliated!"
He abruptly formed seals with both of his hands as his silhouette burst forth without dodging. Just when he was about to come in contact, the space beside Mu Chen fluctuated and two figures, one black and one white, appeared to have stepped on the sky.
The two silhouettes had also turned into dazzling Spiritual Physiques as they flew out and made a move with Mu Chen's main body at the same time. With perfect coordination, three fists flew out and clashed with Xuan Zun.
Boom! Boom!
This head-on clash was even more shocking, and even space itself seemed to have collapsed. However, what caused countless people to be dumbfounded was that Xuan Zun did not manage to win as easily as he did before. Instead, his body jerked and he was sent flying. Even space itself was shattered wherever his feet landed.
On the other side, Mu Chen's three silhouettes had also taken ten-odd steps back.
Xuan Zun's face was a little dark as he stabilised his figure. When he raised his head, he squinted his eyes when he saw the two silhouettes beside Mu Chen that looked the same as him.
"This is the Three Pures?!"
With Xuan Sovereign's keen eyesight, he had instantly recognised it and his face changed. He naturally knew how powerful the Three Pures was.
With this Divine Ability, Mu Chen could practically split into three, and their coordination was flawless. When they joined forces, their power would surge. It wasn't as simple as three Spirit Heavenly Sovereigns joining forces.
A single Mu Chen couldn't defeat him with his Spirit Grade Spiritual Physique, but if there were three Mu Chen joining forces, then even Xuan Sovereign wouldn't be able to gain the upper hand.
At this moment, a commotion broke out in the surroundings with many people looking at Mu Chen with their eyes turning red. One must know that there were only thirty-six Peerless Divine Abilities in the Great Thousand World, so one could see how rare they were. But right now, just Mu Chen alone had two of them.
Just what kind of heaven-defying opportunity did that fellow possess?!
On the stage, Xuan Guang's gaze was a little dark. He initially thought that Xuan Zun would be able to suppress Mu Chen, but he never expected that Mu Chen still had means to resist.
"Xuan Sovereign, go all-out and stop tangling with him." Xuan Guang's voice resounded in Xuan Sovereign's ears.
Xuan Zun nodded his head and took a deep breath. Spiritual lustre surged behind him and a massive black silhouette was formed.
It was as if a black dragon was coiling around the silhouette. As it breathed, the water between the heavens and earth gathered into a storm.
"This is the Great Nether Profound Celestial Body?"
Mu Chen looked at the Sovereign Celestial Body and his gaze moved. He had recognised it. This Sovereign Celestial Body was ranked 23rd on the 99 Rankings of Sovereign Celestial Bodies and was rather formidable.
"You're finally getting serious?"
Mu Chen's hands joined together and a beam shot out from his eyes, forming into a crystal pagoda that floated in the sky and pressed down towards the Great Nether Profound Celestial Body.
The pagoda was the most effective against a Sovereign Celestial Body, so he could absorb it and use the Eight-Divisional Pagoda to suppress it.
"Hmph, you're too naive if you want to use the pagoda to deal with me."
But when Xuan Zun saw the crystal pagoda, there wasn't any fear on his face. On the contrary, he sneered and shook his head. A beam of light shot out from his head and a black pagoda appeared. It flickered with a black lustre and clashed with Mu Chen's crystal pagoda, causing the two of them to tremble.
Mu Chen's brows twitched. This old fellow wasn't easy to deal with. Furthermore, he had a deep understanding of the Eight-Divisional Pagoda. Although he could make the Eight-Divisional Pagoda appear outside the pagoda, it wasn't as powerful as it was within the pagoda.
Furthermore, the other party also had a pagoda, so it wouldn't be easy to keep it in the pagoda. This way, the power of the Eight-Divisional Pagoda would be restricted.
"Brat, don't think that you can be fearless with the Eight-Divisional Pagoda!"
Xuan Zun sneered as he stomped his feet. The Great Nether Profound Celestial Body beneath his feet shot out a torrent of black water that tore through the horizon and flew towards Mu Chen from every direction.
A purplish-golden lustre blossomed behind Mu Chen and the Immortal Golden Body appeared with Divine Immortal Runes forming into a purplish-golden barrier that resisted the black water.
Up in the sky, the two sides faced off and fought. Boundless Spiritual Energy surged between the heavens and earth. Waves of attacks constantly whistled out. They exchanged blows without holding back and vaguely emitted a ruthless aura.
Countless people in this region held their breaths as they watched the battle between the two. They did not dare to shift their gazes away as they watched intently.
"Mu Chen isn't simple. He's actually able to fight on par with Xuan Zun." As the two of them fought, a commotion broke out between the heavens and earth with many people sighing. Judging from the current situation, Mu Chen was gradually stabilizing his footing and Xuan Zun's advantage wasn't as obvious as before.
The Elders and clansmen of the Qing Bloodline inwardly felt relieved with joy on their faces.
On the other hand, the Xuan Bloodline's atmosphere was a little oppressive with many people gnashing their teeth. They couldn't wait for Xuan Zun to tear Mu Chen apart.
Boom!
Another series of clashes occurred. Although Xuan Zun had gained the upper hand, his face was a little unsightly. That's because it's impossible for him to win.
"I've underestimated that brat."
Xuan Zun's gaze turned grim. In the next moment, a ferocious light flashed in his eyes and his silhouette gradually floated up. Black runes started to appear on the surface of his body and formed into seven black runes.
"Seven Divine Pulse, so Xuan Zun also possesses a Divine Pulse. It looks like he's going to use the Spiritual Pulse Divine Ability." A commotion broke out between the heavens and earth.
"Since you're able to force this old man to use the Spiritual Pulse Divine Ability to suppress you, it's not an injustice even if you lose!"
Xuan Zun's deep voice resounded as he abruptly raised his hands. In the next instant, a torrential black river gushed out from his body and filled the sky. The entire world seemed to be frozen at this moment.
At the same time, Xuan Zun's cold voice resounded between the heavens and earth.
"Seven Divine Pulse - Nether Profound Extermination River!"
Xuan Zun had finally revealed his fangs at this moment.
