In the cave, when Mu Chen opened his eyes, two dazzling spiritual lights shot out. The spiritual lights penetrated through the thick mountain and shot towards the world outside.
Surging Spiritual Energy fluctuations wreaked havoc in the cave, causing the entire cave to violently tremble, as if it was on the verge of collapsing.
The commotion lasted for a long time before it gradually calmed down. The radiance in Mu Chen's eyes had also disappeared and he regained his calm. However, his black pupils were even more abstruse.
Looking at the two Universal Bracelets, he helplessly shook his head. He did not manage to break through to the Late Phase Spirit Heavenly Sovereign Realm in this seclusion.
Even with his preparations and the help of the Divine Pagoda, it was still a little forceful for him to absorb 10,000,000,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid in just four months.
But fortunately, the pure Spiritual Energy from the 10,000,000,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid had been refined into his body. At this moment, boundless Spiritual Energy was constantly fluctuating in Mu Chen's body before it gradually fused with his body.
When the Spiritual Energy in his body fused with his body and bones, it would be the day he breaks through to the Late Phase Spirit Heavenly Sovereign Realm.
"It shouldn't be long."
Mu Chen could sense that it wouldn't take long, but he didn't have the time to continue his seclusion. The Primordial Immortal Assembly was about to start, and he couldn't miss it.
"Let's cultivate on the way to the Ancient Maha Clan."
Mu Chen comforted himself as his figure moved and appeared on the peak of the mountain. Thereafter, he saw two silhouettes flying over. One of them was naturally Nine Nether, who had an exquisite figure. As for the other one, it was a girl in a purple dress. The girl's black hair draped down to her butt, fluttering in the wind. Her exquisite face was like porcelain, flickering with a faint lustre. However, her expression was extremely cold, with a pair of golden pupils flickering with a mysterious and profound lustre.
"Datura?" Mu Chen couldn't help but exclaim in surprise when he saw the purple-dressed girl.
In the past, Datura had the appearance of a young girl. But right now, she had turned into a young lady. But judging from the powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuation emanating from Datura's body, she had clearly broken through to the Heavenly Sovereign Realm.
Sweeping a glance at Mu Chen, Datura faintly said, "My Datura Clan has a slow growth period, to begin with. Breaking through to the Heavenly Sovereign Realm has allowed me to leave my childhood."
Nodding his head, Mu Chen held back his laughter. "That's good as well, lest others think that our Mu Abode is led by a little girl."
"Are you looking down on my previous form?" Datura's golden eyes narrowed.
"I wouldn't dare."
Mu Chen immediately replied. The Mu Abode's matters were complicated, and he was about to leave. If he offended Datura at this moment and caused her to quit, then the Mu Abode would be in chaos.
Datura gently snorted as she rolled her eyes at Mu Chen.
"The attention of the Great Thousand World has been focused on the Ancient Maha Clan recently." Jiu You said from the side.
Mu Chen's face turned grave as he nodded his head. "After all, it concerns the ownership of the Primordial Immortal Body. So it's natural for it to attract attention."
That was one of the top-tiered Sovereign Celestial Bodies in the Great Thousand World, and even the various supreme forces would pay attention to it. It was so much so that even many Saint Heavenly Sovereigns would pay attention to it.
"Here."
A scroll appeared in Jiu You's hand as she handed it over to Mu Chen. "While you were in seclusion, the Great Thousand World released a hot list for the Primordial Immortal Body. You should be aware of it and be prepared."
"Oh?"
Mu Chen received the scroll with interest and opened it. He saw an extremely familiar name on the First Rank.
First, Maha You of the Ancient Maha Clan, Pinnacle Late Phase Immortal Heavenly Sovereign Realm. He's also the younger brother of the Patriarch of the Ancient Maha Clan, Maha Tian, and he's the next in line to make a breakthrough to the Saint Heavenly Sovereign Realm.
"That fellow …" Mu Chen squinted his eyes. Maha You was truly a formidable figure. As long as he didn't encounter a Saint Heavenly Sovereign, not many could be his opponent. It was no wonder why he could be ranked first.
It was so much so that even he had no intention of clashing with Maha You before reaching the Late Phase Spirit Heavenly Sovereign Realm.
"Second, Asura Spear, Ye Qing, Late Phase Immortal Heavenly Sovereign Realm."
"Ye Qing …" Mu Chen looked at that name. Just a glance at it made him feel a killing aura blowing over.
"Ye Qing is the Second Hall Master of the West Sea Hall, and he's invincible with his Asura Spear. It's rumored that he has experienced tens of thousands of battles to refine himself. He's known as the Asura of the Battlefield, and his fame isn't any inferior to Maha You." Jiu You sighed.
Nodding his head, Mu Chen continued reading.
Third, the Vajra King, Protector of the Grand Spiritual Mountain, Late Phase Immortal Heavenly Sovereign Realm.
The Grand Spiritual Mountain was also a top-tiered force in the Great Thousand World. It was said that every single cultivator in the Grand Spiritual Mountain had a powerful physique. Thus, Shi Luo wasn't simple to be able to become the Protector of the Grand Spiritual Mountain.
Fourth, the Blade Saint, Tuoba Cang, Late Phase Immortal Heavenly Sovereign Realm. With a broken blade, he swept through the world and once formed an enmity with a supreme force.
"None of them are simple."
Mu Chen looked at the top four with a grave expression. At this moment, he realised how many hidden dragons and crouching tigers were in the Great Thousand World. He had only heard of Maha You, but he had never seen the other three. But who could have expected that their achievements would be so outstanding as well?
Trying to obtain the Primordial Immortal Body from the crowd was something that even Mu Chen felt pressured.
However, this did not cause him to feel the slightest bit of fear. Instead, there was a blazing heat surging in the depths of his eyes, while the blood all over his body started to boil at this moment. The path of an unrivalled expert was one that required endless battles. Through intense battles of life and death with powerful enemies, one would be forced to transform through life and death.
Mu Chen sighed, before looking at the fifth name. When he saw the name, he couldn't help being stunned, before letting out a soft laugh.
Fifth, the Mu Abode's Abode Ruler, Mu Chen, Middle Phase Spirit Heavenly Sovereign Realm. He once wreaked havoc in the Ancient Buddha Clan and defeated Huang Xuanzhi of the Phoenix Clan in the Deification Pool. In the Greatlaw Continent, he defeated the Ghost Emperor and four other Immortal Heavenly Sovereigns.
"Are you a little depressed?
You're only ranked fifth. It seems like many people think that you're inferior to the top four. "Mandala crossed her arms and teased.
Mu Chen casually smiled. "The top four have been famous for years, and they're all genuine Late Phase Immortal Heavenly Sovereigns. Compared to them, I'm naturally inferior."
As he spoke, he briefly paused before he continued, "But we'll have to fight to know who'll be the one laughing in the end."
Mu Chen's eyes blazed with a fearless flame. All these years, he had been working hard for the Primordial Immortal Body. Therefore, no matter how intense the competition was, it was absolutely impossible for him to admit defeat.
Mu Chen stored the scroll and did not look at it anymore. Although there were a few people behind him, the greatest threat in this Primordial Immortal Assembly should be the top four in his view.
"I'm going to make a move as well."
Mu Chen looked at Jiu You and Datura. There were only ten days left until the Primordial Immortal Assembly, and he had to make a move immediately. Otherwise, it would be a huge joke if he couldn't make it in time. After all, Mu Chen had been waiting for this day for a long time.
"The Mu Abode is currently expanding, so I can only trouble the two of you."
Although everyone in the Greatlaw Continent had submitted, they still weren't under the control of the Mu Abode. Thus, there would definitely be many conflicts, so he needed Jiu You and Datura to hold the fort.
"Don't worry about it. When you return, I will give you a Mu Abode that can rule over the Greatlaw Continent." Datura faintly said with confidence in her tone.
After all, the biggest obstacle had been kicked away by Mu Chen, and Datura was confident that she could handle everything.
Mu Chen smiled as he chatted with the two girls for a while longer. He no longer delayed and his figure moved, turning into a streak of spiritual light that soared into the sky, piercing through space and disappeared.
Looking at Mu Chen's silhouette disappearing, Jiu You had a trace of worry on her face. "I wonder if Mu Chen can succeed this time …"
She was very clear about how much effort and effort Mu Chen had poured into the Primordial Immortal Body.
After a brief pondering, Datura seriously said, "This should be Mu Chen's toughest battle. If he can get through it, he will definitely reach the Saint Heavenly Sovereign Realm. As for how he can get through it, it will depend on himself."
Nodding her head, Jiu You could only pray in her heart. After all, Mu Chen might have an outstanding achievement, but the other four weren't simple, either. They were even more ferocious than Huang Xuanzhi.
As time passed, the Primordial Immortal Assembly continued to ferment in the Great Thousand World with many forces gathering in the Ancient Maha Clan. That's because there were rumors that the Primordial Immortal Body, which hadn't shown any movements for tens of thousands of years, was showing signs of movement, as if it had the intention of choosing a master.
When that rumor spread, it attracted countless gazes. Could it be that the Primordial Immortal Body that hadn't chosen a master for tens of thousands of years was finally going to choose a master?
If the Primordial Immortal Body really chose a new master, then there would be another pinnacle existence in the Great Thousand World.
Thus, under these rumors, the Ancient Maha Clan had practically become the focus of the Great Thousand World.
It was also under this commotion that Mu Chen arrived at the Maha Continent seven days later.
