"I'll be the one to launch the next attack!"
When Mu Chen's voice resounded, many experts in this region narrowed their eyes. In the previous attacks, Ji Xuan had been the one leading, while Mu Chen had relied on his powerful physique to passively defend.
But right now, he was finally going to change his method?
However, even if Mu Chen's physique had grown stronger, could he really contend against Ji Xuan, who had reached the Third Grade Spirit Disaster?
Boundless Spiritual Energy surged around Ji Xuan. When he heard Mu Chen's words, his gaze flickered and he smiled. "Then, I'll have to wait and see."
He crossed his arms and did not stop Mu Chen. Although the rise of Mu Chen's physique had exceeded his expectations, if Mu Chen thought that he could make him, Ji Xuan, feel fearful, then he would be too naïve.
In this confrontation, if Mu Chen's attack collapsed, then Ji Xuan would be able to grasp that instant to swiftly make a move and completely suppress Mu Chen into a disadvantageous position.
Mu Chen paid no attention to Ji Xuan's faint laughter. When his voice resounded, his hands had already changed into dazzling seals.
As his seals changed, a dark-green halo instantly spread out from his palms.
"Tree Planting Art!"
Mu Chen lightly barked in his heart as the dark-green halo of light instantly swept out. In the next instant, everyone was astonished to see the earth-shattering green light descending from the sky. With a rustle, it turned into a vast dark-green forest on the ground below.
The forest was filled with towering trees. On the surface of the trees, there was light circulating.
"This is …"
The sudden appearance of the jade-green forest caused everyone to be dumbfounded. However, when they did not sense any dangerous fluctuations from the forest, they were shocked.
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"What a convenient way to plant trees."
Someone couldn't help but comment. It was probably the first time they had seen such a strange method. The first move he made was to plant a huge forest.
Of course, they knew that Mu Chen didn't create it out of thin air.
Because of that method of creating something out of nothing.
It was not something that people of their level could achieve.
This forest should have been prepared by Mu Chen a long time ago. It should be a special Spiritual Artifact.
It had this kind of function, forming a small space that could store all kinds of things.
Luo Li and Wen Qingxuan also looked at each other. It was probably the first time they had seen Mu Chen execute such a peculiar technique.
Shen Cangsheng and the rest also quietly wiped off their cold sweat. If it wasn't for the fact that the timing wasn't right, they would have likely laughed out loud.
Up in the sky, Mu Chen did not care about those peculiar gazes as he looked down at the vast forest. Shortly after, his hand seals abruptly changed once again.
Buzz!
Along with the change of his hand seal.
Dense emerald light suddenly surged out from the vast forest below. The light was filled with vibrant Spiritual Energy.
The Spiritual Energy was filled with vitality. Compared to the mottled Spiritual Energy in the outside world, it vaguely seemed to possess a trace of spirituality.
"Something's not right." Wu Ling and the rest suddenly narrowed their eyes as they stared at the emerald forest.
His complexion became more and more solemn, as if he had sensed something.
The emerald light was like an ocean as it spread out in the sky above the forest. An indescribable pressure started to quietly spread out.
The whispers between the heavens and earth started to die down. Everyone started to feel that something was amiss.
Mu Chen suddenly created such a huge forest. Clearly, it wasn't for the sake of looking good.
Up in the sky, Mu Chen's face was calm. Shortly after, his slender hand seals quietly came together.
Divine Wood Scripture!
Whoosh!
In the vast forest, huge trees started to explode one after another. The jade-green spiritual sea in the sky was like a waterfall as it rushed towards the horizon and converged towards Mu Chen.
Rumble!
The torrential Spiritual Energy gathered beneath Mu Chen's feet. It was like an ocean. The emerald green ocean was filled with vitality. However, the density of the Spiritual Energy caused Ji Xuan's face to slightly change.
That level of Spiritual Energy made him feel a little dangerous.
Huff.
Mu Chen deeply inhaled a mouthful of air as he coldly looked at Ji Xuan. Shortly after, he lightly smiled. However, his smile was like a sharp blade. "Now, it's your turn."
"Lesser Divine Art - Divine Wheel of Heavenly Wood!"
Mu Chen's gaze abruptly turned cold as his hand seals changed. The emerald ocean beneath his feet soared into the sky and gathered at a shocking speed. In the end, it formed into a Divine Wood light wheel that was nearly a thousand feet in size under the numerous shocked gazes.
The light wheel quietly hovered above Mu Chen's head. Although the emerald green lustre made it seem like it was made of wood, it emitted an unstoppable fluctuation. That scene was as if a deity was about to launch a divine punishment!
Everyone's faces turned grave at this moment. Even those as powerful as Wu Ling, Wen Busheng, and Liu Qingyun, who were pinnacle experts in the Great Spiritual Academy Tournament, had slightly narrowed their eyes.
The Divine Wheel of Heavenly Wood that Mu Chen had executed was a genuine Lesser Divine Art. Adding on the energy absorbed from the Divine Wood Scripture, the two Divine Arts originated from the same source. Now that they complemented each other, the might of this Lesser Divine Art was more powerful than any of the ones that Mu Chen had executed in the past.
Facing such a fearsome attack, even an expert that had stepped into the Third Grade Spirit Disaster would feel fearful.
"Some means truly aren't simple."
The River Of Blood stared at this scene as he slowly said. Even he could feel the danger from Mu Chen's attack. That fellow truly had something that stood out from the masses for Ji Xuan to treat him as an opponent that was on par with him.
Up in the sky, the smile on Ji Xuan's face slowly dissipated as he stared at Mu Chen. Clenching his fists, the white Spiritual Energy that was akin to sacred light grew stronger. Clearly, he had also sensed the might of Mu Chen's attack.
"Go!"
Under the astonished gazes that filled the skies, Mu Chen finally extended his slender finger. Shortly after, he pointed down from the sky as his ice-cold voice resounded.
Humm!
Along with the tap of Mu Chen's finger, the incomparably gigantic and ancient divine wheel started to slowly revolve. The speed of its revolutions became swift and violent at an astonishing speed. Humm!
Humm!
In the end, the divine wheel turned into a jade-green arc of light.
An ear-piercing buzzing noise resounded as the sharp edge of the blade whistled through the air, leaving faint marks on the space.
Whoosh!
When the speed of the divine wheel reached its limit, it finally burst forth.
Boom!
The speed of the divine wheel was indescribably fast, as if it was teleporting.
In a flash.
It pierced through space and appeared less than a hundred feet away from Ji Xuan.
"Sacred Light Divine Art - Sacred Light Protection!"
Ji Xuan's face grew even more solemn.
He changed his hand seal and let out a roar.
Whoosh!
Sacred light swept out from his body in every direction. The sacred light spread around him at an astonishing speed and in the blink of an eye, it had formed into a massive sacred light illusory figure. The illusory figure unfolded a pair of sacred light wings and protected Ji Xuan's body within it.
Boom!
When the sacred light illusory figure appeared.
The incomparably huge Divine Wheel also suddenly swept over. In the end, like a meteorite colliding, it heavily smashed against the huge light wings.
An indescribable light burst out at this moment. The light had even overshadowed the sunlight and the entire heavens and earth.
It was as if the entire world was enveloped in the dazzling light, causing everyone to be unable to open their eyes.
Rumble!
The intense light only lasted for a few breaths' time before everyone felt a terrifying Spiritual Energy storm sweeping out.
Boom!
The ground below cracked inch by inch, and some of the surrounding mountains crumbled.
Some of the surrounding mountains were swept away.
Countless people that were close to the battlefield were sent flying. Only those experts that possessed considerable strength could barely stabilize their bodies by relying on their vigorous Spiritual Energy. However, a smear of shock flashed across their faces.
This level of collision was truly astonishing.
The devastating Spiritual Energy shock lasted for a few minutes before it gradually calmed down. When the heavens and earth returned to its calm state, a complete mess appeared before everyone. There were cracks that were roughly a thousand feet in length on the ground, causing the corners of their eyes to twitch.
Rustle!
However, their gazes only rested on the ground for an instant, before they abruptly shifted their gazes towards the sky.
There were still two figures standing on the horizon. However, both of them were sent flying a thousand meters away. As for Ji Xuan, the massive sacred light illusory figure around him was slowly dissipating, revealing his body.
More than half of Ji Xuan's clothes were torn apart. His face was a little dark as he stared at Mu Chen with the ferocity of a wolf.
"He withstood it."
When everyone saw the state that Ji Xuan was in, they couldn't help exclaiming out. Shortly after, they felt fear in their hearts. Ji Xuan was too formidable. Even when facing against Mu Chen's fearsome attack, he was still able to withstand it.
However, it was evident that the reason why Ji Xuan was able to withstand it was due to him possessing a Divine Art. Furthermore, it was a defensive-type Divine Art. Otherwise, he would definitely be injured.
Naturally, no matter what, Ji Xuan was still able to withstand Mu Chen's thunderous attack.
"Formidable."
Looking at the traces of blood on his arm, Ji Xuan's gaze was dark as he looked at Mu Chen. With an eerie smile, he said, "To be able to execute a Divine Art with a cultivation of Spiritual Energy Disaster, I have to say that you're truly formidable."
"However, I'm sorry to tell you that even if you've grasped a Divine Art, it's impossible for you to injure me!"
"Now, what other moves do you have?"
At the end of his words, Ji Xuan's eyes had already turned completely cold.
Mu Chen's black pupils quietly stared at Ji Xuan. In the next instant, a strange smile appeared on his handsome face as he said in a soft voice, "It's still too early for you to be happy."
Upon hearing this, Ji Xuan's pupils abruptly shrunk. Soon after, he seemed to have sensed something as he abruptly raised his head, only to see that the layers of white clouds in the sky had suddenly been torn apart. Hidden behind the white clouds were layers of black thunderclouds. Within the thunderclouds, black thunderbolts were akin to giant dragons as they quietly churned and churned, while a destructive force spread out.
At this instant, a soft voice quietly rang out from within Mu Chen's heart.
"Lightning Controlling Art!"
