The Great Ruler - Chapter196

Outside the Spiritual Arts Hall, rays of light surged as Mu Chen, Luo Li and the rest appeared. Since they had obtained their respective Spiritual Arts, this trip to the Spiritual Arts Hall had obviously come to an end.

After exiting the Spiritual Arts Hall, Yang Hong's complexion was still somewhat gloomy. He gloomily glanced at Mu Chen before his figure moved and flew far away. At this moment, his heart was still in shock and disbelief after Mu Chen defeated the Heavenly Transform Stage guardian.

Mu Chen glanced at Yang Hong's back before withdrawing his gaze.

On the other hand, Mu Kui and Bing Qing curiously looked at Mu Chen. They really wanted to know what Spiritual Arts Mu Chen had obtained in the Spiritual Arts Hall. However, this kind of thing was not appropriate to ask. Therefore, after cupping their fists towards Mu Chen, they each flew far away.

"Where are you going next?" Luo Li softly asked as she looked at Mu Chen with her beautiful eyes.

"I'm going to take a look at Hokuang Reiwon's high-grade Spirit Gathering Array."

Mu Chen smiled. Since he had already obtained the Spiritual Arts, he should seize the time to cultivate. He was pressed for time and had to break through to the Heavenly Fusion Stage within two months. Moreover, he also had to complete the Spiritual Energy Fusion. Evidently, he felt quite a bit of pressure from Li Xuantong.

Luo Li's slender eyelashes gently blinked. She was exceptionally intelligent and could vaguely guess the reason why Mu Chen was working so hard in his cultivation.

"If it's because of Li Xuantong, you don't have to care about him." Luo Li said after a slight hesitation.

Mu Chen smiled as he stared at the girl in front of him. Every frown and smile was enough to shake one's heart and make it hard for him to extricate himself.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Luo Li's charming face blushed a little under his gaze.

She chided.

Mu Chen extended his hand and held onto the girl's slender and tender little hand. The jade-like feeling made people unable to let go of it.

Luo Li's pretty face flushed red.

Her beautiful eyes scanned the surroundings, and when she saw that there was no one around, she relaxed her struggle.

"It's not just because of Li Xuantong." Mu Chen pursed his lips and stared at the girl in front of him.

"I don't know what you're shouldering, but in the Spiritual Road, you told me that you'll help me block the cold arrows that are coming from behind me. Then, in front of you, there's no need to worry about me.

Who's going to stand? "

Luo Li stared blankly at Mu Chen.

In those glass-like eyes.

There were tender feelings rippling within.

"Maybe I don't have that right now, but believe me.

One day, I will do it.

When that time comes, I will fulfill my promise. And right now, I am working hard for that. "Mu Chen's gentle voice contained an unquestionable firmness.

If you're behind me, then I'll naturally be in front of you.

Luo Li bit her red lips and stared at Mu Chen. After a while, she smiled and nodded her head.

"Then I'll go first. Do you plan to come along?" Mu Chen smiled.

Luo Li shook her head and said, "I'll stay in the freshman area for the next few days. Since you've obtained first place on the Spirit Ranking, if someone comes looking for you, I'll be able to help you deal with them."

Although the incident with Mo Lun was resolved by Mu Chen in the end, it was still not a good thing to hear when it was spread out. Therefore, Luo Li did not wish for such a thing to happen again.

Mu Chen nodded his head. He did not know Su Ling 'er and did not know what her personality was like. However, it was always good to be prepared. With Luo Li's strength, she should not be weaker than Su Ling' er.

As for what she really wanted to do, he would deal with it after he came out.

"Then I'll go first."

Mu Chen said again. Then, he did not delay any longer. His figure moved and turned into a ray of light as he flew towards the interior of Hokuang Reiwon.

Luo Li looked at Mu Chen's departing figure and the smile on her face disappeared. After a while, she let out a faint sigh. Her sigh gradually dissipated along with the wind.

Shooting towards the inner regions of the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, Mu Chen's gaze swept across the area. From time to time, there would be many figures shooting past in the air. The Spiritual Energy fluctuations coming from them weren't weak at all. In this region, most of the people were Seniors. Their strength was naturally much stronger than the Freshmen.

Mu Chen looked towards a certain direction in Hokuang Reiwon. Powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuations were being emitted from those areas. That was the direction of the Spirit Convergence Array. Furthermore, each and every one of those Spiritual Energy fluctuations wasn't low.

Mu Chen pondered for a while and flew towards the right. In that direction, there was a Grade 6 Spirit Convergence Array. Mu Chen had never seen a Spirit Convergence Array of that level before. If he could cultivate in that place, the effects would definitely far surpass what he could do outside.

Although the Grade 6 Spirit Convergence Array required a large amount of Spiritual Value Points to cultivate every day, Mu Chen was pressed for time. Therefore, he did not have the time to worry about this.

Mu Chen flew across the horizon. Ten minutes later, he gradually slowed down. His gaze looked towards the front. The sky there was violently distorted, as if it had formed into a huge door of light. Behind the door of light, a torrential amount of Spiritual Energy surged. Even from far away, one could feel the pressure brought by the Spiritual Energy.

Swoosh Swoosh!

Outside the door of light, figures were rushing towards it. Obviously, they were the students that had come to train in the Grade 6 Spirit Convergence Array.

Mu Chen let out a sigh of admiration. Then, with a move of his body, he blended into the crowd and charged into the Rank 6 Spirit Convergence Array.

Bang!

Just as Mu Chen rushed into the Grade 6 Spirit Convergence Array, he instantly felt an astonishing amount of Spiritual Energy pouncing towards him. His body felt as if it had become much heavier, as if he was shouldering a mountain.

Mu Chen circulated the Spiritual Energy in his body to resist the heaviness. Raising his gaze, he swept his gaze across his surroundings. In the next moment, amazement gushed out from his eyes.

This Grade 6 Spirit Convergence Array was much bigger than Mu Chen had expected. Within it, there were plains, mountain streams, mountains and rivers. From the looks of it, it was like a paradise.

Within this stretch of heaven and earth, there was a faint mist surging. It was not an ordinary mist, but was condensed from the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth. Generally speaking, only when the Spiritual Energy was dense to a certain extent, would it form such a faint mist. This was extremely beneficial for cultivation.

"As expected of a Grade 6 Spirit Convergence Array."

Mu Chen could not stop praising it. Compared to this place, the Spiritual Energy in the freshmen's area was much more pitiful. Of course, the price to enter this place was also quite high.

Mu Chen took a look at the token in his hand. It had already been deducted by 4000 Spiritual Value Points. In other words, this Grade 6 Spirit Convergence Array would consume 4000 Spiritual Value Points a day. Based on the 500,000 Spiritual Value Points that Mu Chen currently had, he could at most train for three months.

Mu Chen kept the token and let out a bitter laugh. Fortunately, he had obtained some Spiritual Value Points from the freshmen's competition. Otherwise, the current him would not be able to take out all the Spiritual Value Points he needed to seclude himself in this Grade 6 Spirit Convergence Array.

Mu Chen looked around and asked Jiu You in his heart, "Is there any external condition for the fusion of Spiritual Energy?"

"Try to find a place with dense Spiritual Energy. Furthermore, it would be even better if it's an extremely deep lake." Jiu You's thought resounded in Mu Chen's heart.

"An extremely deep lake?"

Mu Chen was startled and a little puzzled. However, he did not ask about it for the time being. His figure moved and he headed towards the depths of the Spirit Convergence Array. Evidently, the closer one was to the center of the Spirit Convergence Array, the stronger the Spiritual Energy would be.

Mu Chen slowed down his speed and flew across the sky. As he breathed, surging Spiritual Energy flowed into his body through his nostrils, causing him to feel a hundred times more spirited and relaxed.

Along the way, there were all kinds of mountains and rivers. However, many of them were occupied by human figures. Although training in the Rank 6 Spirit Convergence Array consumed a lot of Spiritual Value Points, the incomparably dense Spiritual Aura of Heaven and Earth still caused many students to flock to this place. Once they had accumulated enough Spiritual Value Points, they would enter this place to train.

Mu Chen headed straight for the depths of the Spirit Convergence Array. After approximately ten minutes, his figure gradually came to a stop. His line of sight looked down at the two gigantic mountain peaks. Due to the collision between the two peaks, a gigantic lake was formed. The lake was clear, but at a glance, it was impossible to see the bottom. Evidently, it was extremely deep.

Above the lake floated a dense Spiritual Fog. Even if a gale blew over, it would be unable to disperse the Spiritual Fog.

Mu Chen was extremely satisfied with this place. His figure descended and landed on the surface of the lake. When Mu Chen's figure landed, the surface of the lake beneath his feet vibrated and rippled. This was because the Spiritual Energy here was too dense, causing Mu Chen's body to become much heavier.

Mu Chen's gaze swept across his surroundings. There should be students training in the surroundings of the lake. However, it was much quieter than the outside. If he were to train here, he should not be disturbed.

"What should we do next?" Mu Chen asked again.

"Dive into the depths of the lake to train." Jiu You replied in an indifferent manner.

"Dive into the depths of the lake?" Mu Chen gawked.

Within Mu Chen's aurasea, Jiu You gracefully extended its wings, which were burning with black flames. "The fusion of Spiritual Energy is an extremely difficult matter. Therefore, it requires the assistance of an external force. Now, we can use water pressure to replace this external force. The water in this lake contains Spiritual Energy, so the water pressure far exceeds that of ordinary water. Once you enter the depths of the lake, the water pressure from all directions will surge into your body. At that time, you will need to use your Spiritual Energy to fuse with the Jiu You Fire. The water pressure that permeates your body will gradually compress and fuse your Spiritual Energy with the Jiu You Fire together!"

"Naturally, although this sounds easy, it's extremely difficult to execute. The slightest mistake will cause damage to your body and meridians, resulting in serious injuries. Furthermore, the Jiu You Fire is exceptionally overbearing. Although we have formed a Bloodline Bond, the Jiu You Fire does not belong to you. Therefore, if you are unable to endure the intense pain, it will cause all your previous efforts to go to waste."

"Therefore, are you prepared?"

Taking a deep breath, Mu Chen's gaze started to slowly turn solemn. In the end, he heavily nodded his head without the slightest bit of hesitation.

"Let's begin!"

A fierce glint flashed within Mu Chen's black eyes. In the next instant, with a move of his body, a splash rang out as he dived into the clear lake. Ripples spread out, while his body dived into the depths of the lake like a fish.
