The land was in a tattered state, as if it had experienced an apocalyptic battle. Even the end of one's sight was covered in ruins.
On the shattered ground, a dark red mountain stood silently. This mountain gave off an ancient and immortal aura, giving off an extremely mysterious feeling.
Before the crimson mountain, there was a massive stone platform with three silhouettes standing on it. The three of them were separated from each other with their guard up against each other.
The three of them were Maha You, Ye Qing, and Tuoba Cang.
Clearly, they had already finished their elimination battles and successfully arrived at the final floor.
"Haha, it looks like the outcome is as I expected. The two of you are the only ones here."
Looking at Ye Qing and Tuoba Cang, Maha You smiled. "Out of a hundred, only three of you can be my opponent."
Ye Qing and Tuoba Cang knew that the third person that he was talking about should be Shi Luo.
"Then I'm indebted to your high opinion of me."
Ye Qing held onto the crimson spear with an indifferent smile. His eyes were filled with killing intent without any fear for Maha You.
On the other hand, Tuoba Cang remained silent without any expression on his face.
"But Shi Luo still hasn't shown himself, so he must have encountered a powerful opponent." Ye Qing said with a weird expression after seeing that the fourth person had yet to show himself.
"It should be Mu Chen." Tuoba Cang said.
Evidently, they had a good understanding of Mu Chen, and they knew that this person ranked behind them possessed a shocking fighting strength.
"Although Mu Chen is capable, he's still lacking if he wants to defeat Shi Luo."
Maha You smiled. He had seen Mu Chen's fights, and although Mu Chen's fighting strength was shocking, it wasn't possible for him to defeat Shi Luo.
Although Ye Qing and Tuoba Cang had their guard up against Maha You, they still nodded their heads. They were clear about Shi Luo's ability, and even if they were to make a move, they might not be able to defeat him.
Although Mu Chen had endless means, his cultivation was only in the Middle Phase Spirit Heavenly Sovereign Realm. So it wasn't enough for him to defeat Shi Luo, who was on the same level as them.
Buzz!
When their voices resounded, the space on the stage suddenly fluctuated and the three of them immediately directed their gazes over.
Under their watchful gazes, space distorted and a slender young figure appeared.
Maha You, Tuoba Cang, and Tuoba Cang looked at that youthful face before the entire stage fell into silence. The smile on Maha You's face froze, while Ye Qing and Tuoba Cang squinted their eyes as they looked at that silhouette with shock.
It was naturally Mu Chen. Looking at Maha You, Ye Qing, and Tuoba Cang, his eyes flickered before he retreated to a safe distance.
"You actually defeated Shi Luo?" Maha You knitted his brows as he looked at Mu Chen with a dark gaze.
"Is it strange?" Mu Chen swept a glance at him with an indifferent expression.
"Heh, interesting. Looks like I've underestimated you."
A playful smile rose on the corner of Maha You's lips with a cold light flickering in his eyes. He didn't like things that were out of his control.
However, Mu Chen no longer paid any attention to him and looked at the crimson mountain. When he looked at that mountain, he could sense an indescribable attractive force.
The immortal and mysterious aura that emanated from that mountain was the same as the Immortal Golden Body.
This caused Mu Chen's heart to involuntarily beat faster. From the looks of it, the legendary Primordial Immortal Body seemed to be hidden within this mountain?
"You've guessed correctly. The Primordial Immortal Body should be in that mountain." A faint voice resounded. When Mu Chen looked over, it turned out to be Ye Qing.
Boom!
When Ye Qing's voice resounded, the crimson mountain suddenly trembled and cracks started to appear on the mountain before they slowly spread out, as if the mountain was about to split apart.
An indescribable immortal aura gushed out from those cracks. It was true immortality that existed even if the heavens and earth were to shatter.
Behind Mu Chen, Maha You, Ye Qing, and Tuoba Cang, a purplish-golden radiance surged and their Immortal Golden Bodies started to flicker uncontrollably, as if they were being attracted by something.
Mu Chen's gaze was blazing as he looked at the gradually crumbling mountain. He could vaguely sense that when the mountain crumbled, the Primordial Immortal Body would appear.
But just when his heart was filled with desire, he suddenly sensed a cold gaze directed at him. The Spiritual Energy on the surface of his body circulated and he looked over at Maha You as well.
At the same time, he could sense enmity from Ye Qing and Tuoba Cang. The Primordial Immortal Body was about to appear, but only one person could obtain it. So before that, they would be competitors.
"Everyone, you guys know that only one person can obtain the Primordial Immortal Body." Maha You's eyes flickered like a venomous snake with killing intent in his voice. "So before the Primordial Immortal Body appears, shouldn't we reduce the number of people?"
The eyes of Mu Chen, Ye Qing, and Tuoba Cang flickered as they asked at the same time, "What do you want?"
Maha You stretched out two fingers with a cruel smile on his lips. "Split into two groups of four and eliminate your opponents."
As he spoke, his cold gaze was fixed on Mu Chen. Evidently, he had already treated Mu Chen as a target to be eliminated.
Knitting his brows, Ye Qing said, "The Primordial Immortal Pagoda is no longer eliminating people, which means that everyone here is qualified to see the Primordial Immortal Body."
Squinting his eyes, Maha You smiled. "The Primordial Immortal Pagoda feels that everyone is qualified, but I don't think so."
The atmosphere on the stone platform slowly froze, and there was a faint, icy killing intent flowing.
Ye Qing and Tuoba Cang looked at Mu Chen. They could sense that Maha You was targeting him.
Under their gazes, Mu Chen did not have any ripples on his face. Looking at Maha You, he smiled. "Looks like you're confident that you can drive me out before the Primordial Immortal Body appears?"
Maha You faintly replied, "If you think that you can jump around before me after defeating Shi Luo, then you're too naïve."
Nodding his head with a smile, Mu Chen replied, "If you really want to, then I'll play with you."
A cold smile rose on the corner of Maha You's lips. "I'm just afraid that you'll play yourself to death."
With a smile, Mu Chen turned into a streak of light and soared into the sky.
Looking at Mu Chen's silhouette, Maha You had also turned into a streak of light and chased after him.
Along with Mu Chen and Maha You, Ye Qing fell into a brief silence before pointing his spear at Tuoba Cang. "He's right. In the end, only one of us can obtain the Primordial Immortal Body. So reducing our numbers is the best way to increase our chances."
Tuoba Cang nodded lightly. He held the hilt of the broken blade on his back, and then he drew it diagonally towards the ground. His hair fluttered as peerlessly fierce saber qi erupted, causing the ground in the surroundings to be instantly sliced open.
"I've long wanted to experience Brother Ye's Asura Spear Art. I hope that you won't disappoint me."
"They're fighting again!"
Outside the Primordial Immortal Pagoda, everyone looked at the two remaining mirrors with a blaze in their eyes. That's because the four of them represented the strongest confrontation in this Primordial Immortal Assembly.
Whether it was Maha You, Ye Qing, or Tuoba Cang, all of them were famous. It was so much so that even the least famous, Mu Chen, had revealed a shocking power when he fought with Shi Luo.
Now that the Primordial Immortal Body was about to appear, the four of them would be facing off against each other.
"That damnable Maha You!"
Qing Yanjing's face turned cold at this scene. She could sense that Maha You was targeting Mu Chen, especially after Mu Chen's Black Dragon Army was heavily injured to deal with Shi Luo. Otherwise, Maha You wouldn't dare to make a move.
"Don't be anxious."
Futu Xuan comforted as he looked at the youthful silhouette in the mirror. "Your son has quite a few cards up his sleeves. With how cunning he is, I don't think that the Black Dragon Army is his only trump card."
"You're the cunning one."
Qing Yanjing sourly replied before she calmed down. Although the Black Dragon Army was gone, Mu Chen must be confident since he dared to accept the challenge.
Maha Tian was also looking at the mirror with the Elders of the Ancient Maha Clan shaking their heads when they saw the confrontation between Mu Chen and Maha You.
"That Mu Chen is truly overestimating himself. Not to mention that his Black Dragon Army is heavily injured, even if it wasn't, it's impossible for him to be Maha You's opponent."
With an indifferent tone, Maha Tian continued, "On the other hand, Maha You has done pretty well."
He was in favor of Maha You making a move before the Primordial Immortal Body appeared. It was so much so that he even felt that it was best to kick the other three out. This way, it would be impossible for the Primordial Immortal Body to not choose Maha You.
"It's just that time is a little tight. I'm afraid that the Primordial Immortal Body will appear in half an incense's time." An Elder said as he looked at the crimson mountain in the mirror.
Looking at the two silhouettes in the mirror, a cold smile rose on Maha Tian's lips.
"Half an incense's time is sufficient for Maha You to kick that brat out of the Primordial Immortal Pagoda."
