Heavenly Transform Stage Late Phase!
Mu Chen and Su Xuan's expressions changed as they watched Bai Xuan's Spiritual Energy surge. Their expressions gradually turned solemn. This White Dragon City's City Lord really knew how to endure. Even after suffering so many losses in the stone statue array, he still hid his strength.

His forbearance was truly chilling.
"City Lord, the Young City Lord was gravely injured by that brat. He's on his last breath!" The grey-robed elder anxiously reported.
Bai Xuan's sinister gaze became even more frightening as he glared at Mu Chen. His hoarse voice was laced with malevolent killing intent. "Brat, you better pray that you don't fall into my hands. Otherwise, I'll skin you alive and pull out your tendons. I'll make you regret ever being born into this world."
However, Mu Chen wasn't the slightest bit moved by his threat. His black eyes remained indifferent. From the moment Bai Xuan's group had ambushed them in the forest, Mu Chen and Bai Xuan already knew that the two sides wouldn't end peacefully. Even if he didn't cripple Bai Dong, the outcome would still be the same.
Su Xuan coldly said, "Remnants of the Demonic Dragon Palace dare to act so impudently in the Northern Heavens Continent? Aren't you afraid that the experts of my Hokuang Reiwon will slaughter you all?"
"Haha, did you really think that the Northern Heavens Continent belongs to your Hokuang Reiwon?
If it weren't for that accident, your Northern Heavens Continent would've been destroyed by my Demonic Dragon Palace. You wouldn't even have the chance to spout such nonsense now. "Bai Xuan laughed.
"But the truth is that you lost." Mu Chen smiled, drawing blood on the first prick as he reminded Bai Xuan of the truth.
Bai Xuan's smile faded as he slowly clenched his fist. A sinister-looking blood-red spear appeared in his hand.
There was an astonishing fiendish aura emanating from the spear. It was obvious that this spear was extremely powerful.
It was clearly a High Rank Spiritual Artifact that exuded a baleful aura.
"Since you like to speak the truth, then I'll tell you what truth you're facing right now, brats of Hokuang Reiwon!" Bai Xuan's eyes suddenly turned cold.
As he took a step forward, the long blood-red spear in his hand trembled, causing blood light to surge across the sky. Within the blood light, there seemed to be a torrential sea of blood surging as a bloody stench filled the air.
"Blood Sea Devouring Spirit Spear!"
Boom!
The bloody light spread out like a torrential sea of blood, covering the sky and covering the earth as it swept towards Mu Chen and Jian Xiaotian.
That kind of attack.
Seeing this, Mu Chen and Su Xuan's expressions changed.
Bai Xuan was already at the late stage of the Heavenly Transform Stage. Now that he had a high-grade spiritual weapon brimming with an ominous aura, he was like a tiger that had grown wings.
He was shockingly strong.
Su Xuan's face turned solemn as vigorous Spiritual Energy surged out of her body.
Within her jade-like hand, the "Dense Water Spiritual Pearl" erupted with rays of brilliance as azure waves of water endlessly gushed out. Containing pure Spiritual Energy within those waves of water, they were as heavy as mountains. As the waves of water revolved, they formed a gigantic whirlpool, protecting her and Mu Chen within it.
"You want to block my attack with your strength at the Heavenly Transform Stage Middle Phase?!"
However, Bai Xuan only smiled when he saw Su Xuan's defense. With a shake of the spear in his hand, the blood-red light that filled the sky suddenly condensed into a river of blood at the tip of the spear. Then, the river of blood rushed out and fiercely collided with the azure whirlpool.
Bang!
An astonishing Spiritual Energy rippled out, causing the azure whirlpool to come to a stop. With a shout, Bai Xuan's long blood-red spear tore the whirlpool apart.
Bang!
The huge whirlpool exploded into a mist that dissipated. Su Xuan's face paled and a trace of blood appeared at the corner of her mouth.
The long spear, suffused with a thick baleful aura, tore through the sky as it shot towards Su Xuan.
Whoosh!
A longsword made of azure light, carrying with it a surging Spiritual Energy, shot out from behind and heavily collided with the blood-red spear.
Clang!
The sound of metal clashing resounded and waves of energy surged. The longsword was instantly pushed back and the web between Mu Chen's thumb and forefinger split open. Blood flowed down the blade of the sword and dripped down. Mu Chen himself was also pushed back several steps. The blood in his body churned and his face paled.
"Big Sister!"
Cries of alarm rang out from behind, followed by whooshing sounds. Su Ling 'er, Guo Xiong, and Li Qing hurriedly flew over and landed beside Mu Chen and Su Xuan. Their faces changed when they saw the injured duo.
Along the way, Su Xuan had always been calm, but any opponent could stop her. Mu Chen didn't seem strong, but in the end, he could always create miracles and turn the situation around.
Unknowingly, the two of them had become the most important members of this team. But now, they were both injured.
At this moment, quite a few forces and experts had already gathered in the depths of the basin. But when they sensed Bai Xuan's strength, their expressions changed. Even the people from the Heavenly Dipper Sword Faction and the Earthen Way Sect didn't dare to recklessly make a move. Within the Heavenly Transform Stage, there was a huge gap between every level. Although they had four Heavenly Transform Stage Initial Stage experts, if they really fought, Bai Xuan would kill them all within a few exchanges.
This was the huge gap between the Heavenly Transform Stage Initial Stage and the Late Stage.
"Brat, hand over the item obediently and I might let you die a quick death."
Bai Xuan hovered in the air, a torrential blood-red light filling the air. His gaze was like a blade as he stared at Mu Chen.
Mu Chen sneered. This Bai Xuan was indeed strong. With the strength of a Heavenly Transform Stage late stage expert and the high-grade Spirit Spear in his hand, he could be considered one of the strongest in the Heavenly Transform Stage. But if this guy really thought he could force Mu Chen to bow his head in fear, then he was a little too naive.
If he didn't have any life-saving methods, how would he dare to confront Bai Xuan?
Mu Chen slowly clenched his fists, a black flame surging in the depths of his eyes. It looked like he'd have to use the power of the Jiu You Sparrow again. But if he did, he'd have to pay a hefty price. But at a time like this, he couldn't care less.
Drip.
As these thoughts flashed through Mu Chen's mind, blood continuously dripped from the tip of his sword. Then, it dripped onto the black demonic pillar beneath his feet. As the blood fell, it quickly disappeared.
Buzz.
The earth.
At this moment, there seemed to be a slight tremor. Initially, no one paid any attention to it, but the tremor quickly grew stronger.
Only then did the various experts hastily look around for the source of the tremors.
"Quick, look at that black pillar!"
Someone suddenly cried out in alarm. Everyone hastily looked over, only to see …
The only thing still standing in the basin was a slightly broken black pillar. Dark-red runes appeared on its surface, and as those runes appeared, the entire world seemed to dark-red.
Mu Chen also sensed this abnormality. He was startled at first, but then his expression changed.
He grabbed Su Xuan's wrist.
"Get away from the pillar!"
With that, he grabbed Su Xuan and retreated.
He had already grabbed Su Xuan and retreated. Seeing this, Su Ling 'er and the other two quickly followed.
"You want to leave?!" Bai Xuan's eyes turned cold.
He chased after them.
Boom!
The instant Bai Xuan moved, the black demonic pillar exploded with a torrential blood-red light.
Suddenly, a monstrous blood-red light burst out. The blood-red light soared into the sky, as if it was condensed from fresh blood. Then, it spread out in the sky, forming a torrential sea of blood. An incomparably ferocious fluctuation spread out.
Compared to this fiendish aura, Bai Xuan's high-grade Spirit Artifact was like a child's toy. It couldn't even withstand a single blow.
The sudden change stunned everyone. Even Bai Xuan's expression changed. He sensed an indescribably terrifying fluctuation coming from that torrential sea of blood.
"What exactly is this black stone pillar?
Why is it so terrifying?! "
Bai Xuan stared at the black basin in shock. The pillar was covered in deep claw marks, as if it was on the verge of shattering.
"Could that pillar be the true treasure of the Spirit Treasury?!"
Bai Xuan's heart trembled. The mission he'd received was to obtain a treasure from the White Dragon Sovereign's Spirit Treasury, but he didn't know what it was. He originally thought it was the white spiritual pearl that Mu Chen had stolen. Because of the spiritual energy fluctuations it emitted, it was definitely a treasure. But now, it seemed that this mysterious black pillar was even more frightening!
Because it was too frightening, even Bai Xuan didn't dare to touch it.
The sea of blood filled the sky. Then, everyone watched in horror as the space around them began to distort. It was a sign that space was about to shatter.
This terrifying and mysterious stone pillar couldn't even suppress this space?
Countless people were astounded. What kind of treasure was that exactly?
Was it the birth of a divine artifact?!
"Space is about to shatter!" Su Xuan cried out in a low voice as her pretty eyes hardened upon seeing this scene.
Mu Chen and the others hastily circulated their spiritual energy to protect themselves.
Bang!
When Bai Xuan saw this, he could only grit his teeth. He didn't dare to attack and hastily circulated his spiritual energy to protect himself.
Bang!
The distorted space finally reached its limit. With a final 'bang', it was completely shattered like a mirror that had fallen to the ground. Wild and violent spatial ripples swept out.
Spatial vortexes appeared one after another, swallowing everyone inside. Before Mu Chen and the others could say anything, they were also sucked into the spatial vortexes and disappeared.
White Dragon Hillock
In the depths of the White Dragon Hillock, a crack suddenly appeared in the sky. Countless figures were spat out like garbage, covering the sky and covering the earth as they fell.
Fortunately, Mu Chen and the others didn't get separated. As they were thrown out, they quickly stabilized themselves and landed on a mountain peak.
"They're all out." Su Ling 'er exclaimed as she looked at the miserable figures that covered the entire mountain.
"Just what is that black pillar?
It's so terrifying! "
Guo Xiong asked in shock. That space was created by the White Dragon Sovereign and was incomparably sturdy. But who would've thought that the black pillar would shatter it?
At the very least, only an expert on the same level as the White Dragon Sovereign could do such a thing, right?
Mu Chen's expression turned solemn. He'd seen the scene earlier, so he naturally understood that the black demonic pillar was the true treasure that the White Dragon Sovereign had taken from the Demonic Dragon Palace. However, that item was too sinister, so he didn't dare to touch it.
"Let's hurry up and leave before Bai Xuan notices us!" Mu Chen said in a low voice.
That Bai Xuan was indeed powerful. It'd be best if they could avoid him. Otherwise, a battle to the death would be unavoidable.
Su Xuan and the others nodded and quickly turned around to leave.
But just as they turned around, Mu Chen saw a crack appear in the space in front of him. From within that crack, a torrential baleful aura surged out. Then, a ray of blood-red light shot out and rapidly enlarged in Mu Chen's eyes. Finally, with a 'puchi' sound, it shot into Mu Chen's forehead without any resistance.
Mu Chen's body stiffened. He could feel an incomparably terrifying baleful aura erupting from his body. The source of that baleful aura seemed to be a black demonic pillar.
