Baleful aura filled the entire region as the gigantic demonic pillar appeared akin to a pillar that supported the heavens as it towered between the heavens and earth, radiating astonishing fluctuations. Every single expert in this region was dumbfounded as they stared at the figure of the youth standing on top of the demonic pillar. He's actually going to challenge Mo Xingtian!
"That brat's truly insane …"
Some people muttered to themselves. Even Xia Youran, Xi Qinghai and Su Buxiu, the pinnacle figures of the younger generation in the Northern Heavens Continent, could only swallow their anger under Mo Xingtian's overbearingness. Who would have imagined that Mu Chen would actually dare to stand out and issue a challenge to Mo Xingtian?
This spectacle truly caused them to not know whether to sigh at Mu Chen's courage, or to ridicule him for overestimating his own capabilities …
However, it had to be said that as the slender figure of the youth stood proudly on top of the gigantic demonic pillar, with his robes fluttering in the gales, the aura radiating from him gave off a domineering aura that could devour mountains and rivers, causing people to be subdued by him.
Xia Youran, Xi Qinghai and Su Buxiu raised their heads to look at the figure before them in a daze, while their gazes turned slightly complicated. This was especially so for Xi Qinghai. Back then, when Mu Chen had fought with Mo Longzi in the Western Desolated City, he was present at the scene. At that time, he had clearly looked down on the fight between the two. Perhaps, he never imagined that not long after, this youth would become so dazzling that even he would feel piercing towards his eyes.
The speed of his growth truly caused people to gasp in amazement.
On the steps leading to the summit, the figures of Mo Xingtian and the other three came to a stop. Liu Ying and the other two turned their heads to look at Mu Chen, who was standing on top of the demonic pillar, while their expressions faintly fluctuated. Clenching his teeth, Liu Ying felt shock and jealousy towards Mu Chen's imposing aura.
Mo Xingtian's figure had also come to a stop. After a brief pause, he slowly turned around under the attentive gazes that blotted the skies.
Not a single ripple was present on his face, while his deathly still eyes stared at Mu Chen. With a smile, he said, "Borrowing the baleful aura of the Great Meru Demonic Pillar?
To be able to achieve this with the strength of the initial stage of the Reaching Heaven State, it's really amazing. "
Mu Chen stared coldly at Mo Xingtian and said slowly, "You've been on our Hokuang Reiwon's bounty list for so many years. This time, perhaps it's time for you to be executed."
Boom!
Just as his final word rang out, Mu Chen's figure abruptly shot forward. His hands hugged the empty space, only to see the Great Meru Demonic Pillar rapidly shrink. After which, it transformed into a black stone pillar that was approximately a hundred feet long, before landing in Mu Chen's embrace.
The entire body of the stone pillar was mottled, and was covered with the scars of time. There were also many deep scars left behind by the heaven-shaking battles that had occurred in the past. Naturally, other than this, there were also some dark purple patterns present on its surface. These were the sealing power of the "Page of Sealing" within his body.
The Great Meru Demonic Pillar was far too baleful. If it wasn't sealed, the current Mu Chen would absolutely not be able to control it. Although the might of the Great Meru Demonic Pillar would weaken after being sealed, it was already more than enough for the current Mu Chen.
Whoosh!
Hugging the empty space around the stone pillar, Mu Chen shot towards Mo Xingtian while bringing along a baleful aura that blotted the skies.
"Humph!"
Upon seeing this, Liu Zhuang, Dong Yuan and the other two gave a cold snort, before preparing to take action.
Whoosh!
However, before they could take action, Xia Youran, Xi Qinghai and Su Buxiu had already shot to the front, blocking their path.
"It's best for all of you to wait for the fight over there," said Xia Youran in an indifferent tone with a cold expression on her lovable face.
"Xia Youran, do you really think that brat is a match for Mo Xingtian?" said Liu Ying with a dark expression on his face.
"Whether he's a match or not, we'll know after the fight. At the very least, he has the courage to take action against Mo Xingtian."
A sliver of disdain curled up from Xia Youran's red lips. From her point of view, Mu Chen was a hundred times stronger than Liu Ying.
"You call that courage?"
Said Liu Ying in a ridiculing tone. "That's called not knowing the difference between life and death. I feel that you should be thinking about exactly how you're going to collect his corpse later on!"
"Don't worry about it."
Said Xia Youran in a cold voice. "If you guys want to take action, we can only accompany you for a while."
Hearing her words, Dong Yuan instantly gave a chuckle before replying. "Taking action will hurt feelings. This situation won't last for long. Once that brat is killed by Mo Xingtian, you guys can finally rest."
Hearing that, the faces of Xi Qinghai and Su Buxiu sunk. However, they didn't say anything else. If Mu Chen were to truly lose, the only thing they could do was to give up. Faced against such a formidable Mo Xingtian, even they couldn't help but lose some of their sharpness.
Clenching her teeth, Xia Youran raised her head to look at the sky, thinking that if Mu Chen wasn't a match for Mo Xingtian, she would definitely take action to save him. If not, with Mo Xingtian's ruthlessness, he would definitely take action to kill Mu Chen. Clearly, she couldn't just watch as Mu Chen was killed by Mo Xingtian.
Bang!
While Xia Youran, Liu Ying and the rest were facing off against each other, Mu Chen had already arrived in the sky. His scarlet-red eyes were tightly locked onto the thinly clothed Mo Xingtian, while killing intent radiated from his entire body.
Looking at the frightening Mu Chen without a single ripple on his face, Mo Xingtian gave a tap in the air. In the next instant, the Spiritual Energy in the world started to explode, before a gigantic Spiritual Energy ray approximately a hundred metres long suddenly shot out from his fingertip. The boundless Spiritual Energy radiating from it caused the faces of Xia Youran and the rest to uncontrollably change. The tyrannical degree of Mo Xingtian's Spiritual Energy seemed to far surpass theirs.
Bang!
Looking at the ray of Spiritual Energy ray shooting towards him, Mu Chen didn't show any signs of dodging. Hugging the demonic pillar with his hands, a low roar rang out as he raised the demonic pillar. Akin to splitting a mountain, he furiously smashed it against the ray of Spiritual Energy.
Boom!
A low and deep sound that caused people's scalps to turn numb rang out across the sky. Baleful aura that blotted the skies surged from the demonic pillar. As the demonic pillar swung down, the seemingly boundless ray of Spiritual Energy was unexpectedly smashed apart, exploding into glowing dots that blotted the skies.
Countless people were startled by this scene. At this moment, Mu Chen was too ferocious.
Whoosh!
As the glowing dots that blotted the skies, Mu Chen's figure shot out like a bolt of lightning. In the next instant, he had already appeared above Mo Xingtian. In the next instant, the demonic pillar brought along a surging baleful aura as it swept over.
A chilling glint flashed across Mo Xingtian's deathly still eyes. All of a sudden, he clenched his five fingers tightly, before sending a fist rumbling out. Similarly, a baleful aura radiated from it, along with boundless and boundless Spiritual Energy. The fluctuations radiating from it caused even the eyelids of Liu Ying and the rest to twitch.
"Demonic Dragon Force!"
A hoarse roar rang out as Mo Xingtian's fist violently smashed against the demonic pillar sweeping towards him. In the next instant, a demonic dragon seemed to condense and roar out from his fist, causing baleful aura to surge.
Bang!
A muffled sound rang out as ripples visible to the naked eye rippled out from the point of contact. In the next instant, the ground beneath Mo Xingtian's feet started to crack apart, inch by inch. In the next instant, the shattering started to spread out akin to waves, while the flight of stairs started to break apart.
Seeing this, Xia Youran, Jia Ying and the rest hastily retreated back, afraid that they would be affected by the powerful shockwaves.
"You're underestimating this treasure of your Demonic Dragon Palace too much if you think you can block the Great Meru Demonic Pillar like this?!"
A sneer rang out from Mu Chen. In the next instant, a blood-red brilliance covered the skies and covered the earth as it swept out from the surface of the Great Meru Demonic Pillar. The baleful aura radiating from it was akin to surging clouds of blood, appearing exceedingly frightening.
As the clouds of blood surged out, the demonic dragon image that was wrapped around Mo Xingtian's fist was unexpectedly shattered and scattered apart.
A faint shiver appeared within Mo Xingtian's eyes as he sensed the baleful aura gushing towards him. The energy radiating from it was too ferocious. Upon contact, it corroded into his body, causing the Spiritual Energy within his body to start vibrating.
"What an overbearing Great Meru Demonic Pillar!
Mo Xingtian spoke out in a hoarse voice. With the current strength of Mu Chen, he was only able to summon ten to twenty percent of the baleful aura present within the pillar. Nevertheless, it was still able to cause the Spiritual Energy within his body to vibrate. Indeed, this treasure of the Demonic Dragon Palace wasn't ordinary.
"Pa!"
With a wave of his sleeve, borrowing the force of the collision, his body turned into a wisp of black smoke as he rapidly retreated in an attempt to evade the sharp edge of the Great Meru Demonic Pillar.
"Bang!"
However, how could Mu Chen give him such an opportunity? Hugging the empty air, the demonic pillar in his hand swept out, instantly catching up to Mo Xingtian. In the next instant, the demonic pillar violently smashed against the latter's body.
Boom!
A deep sound rang out, before the sound of people sucking in a breath of cold air rang out across the entire region. Due to the demonic pillar sweeping out, Mo Xingtian's figure was sent flying back in a miserable fashion. His feet scraped across the ground, leaving deep marks on the ground. After retreating a few hundred metres, he gave a heavy stomp of his feet, shattering the ground as he forcefully stabilised his body.
After stabilising his body, Mo Xingtian's Spiritual Energy fluctuated around his body. His clothes were in tatters, while a faint trace of blood appeared at the corner of his mouth.
After all, the Great Meru Demonic Pillar was an ominous weapon from the Primordial Era. Although it had been sealed by Mu Chen, the baleful aura radiating from it was still as frightening as ever. It's said that anyone that was struck by it would have the baleful aura invade their body, corroding their Spiritual Energy. In the end, it would affect their consciousness, causing them to sink into a state of incomparable malevolence.
As of now, Mo Xingtian had forcefully endured the attack of the demonic pillar. Even if his strength wasn't weak, it clearly wasn't easy for him.
Upon seeing this, Xia Youran and the rest, who were hovering in the air, had their mouths slightly agape, while shock and astonishment filled their eyes. Never in their wildest imaginations did they expect that Mu Chen would actually gain the upper hand in this exchange.
Within the smoke and dust, Mu Chen gave a heavy stomp of the demonic pillar in his hand, causing the earth to tremble. At this moment, his scarlet-red eyes were tightly locked onto Mo Xingtian in the distance.
"Haha."
Patting the dust off his body, a hoarse laughter rang out from Mo Xingtian. Slowly raising his head, ripples finally surfaced within his deathly still eyes, while a sliver of interest appeared on his usually emotionless face.
"You don't disappoint me too much."
With a smile, Mo Xingtian extended his hand. With a furious clench, black light condensed, before a black heavy spear appeared within his hand.
The heavy spear was completely covered in black scales, sparkling with a dark lustre. At the tip of the spear, a demonic dragon appeared, with its sinister fangs forming the tip of the spear. Incomparably sharp, it appeared as though it could tear apart the heavens and earth.
"That's …"
Upon seeing the black heavy spear, the faces of Xia Youran and the rest slightly changed. "The Peerless Rank Spiritual Weapon of the Demonic Dragon Palace, the Devouring Dragon Demonic Spear?!"
Wielding the black heavy spear in his hand, Mo Xingtian's aura instantly skyrocketed, akin to a demonic dragon breaking free from its restraints and appearing in this stretch of the world, wanting to devour the heavens.
"Since that's the case, let's have some fun!"
