Lightning flickered on the Golden Battle Stage. As the lightning dissipated, a familiar figure slowly appeared under the countless astonished gazes.
When they clearly saw the appearance of that figure, the pupils of countless people abruptly shrunk. Some people even involuntarily blinked their eyes. Their horrified expressions were as if they had seen a ghost.
"Is that Mu Chen?!"
"Isn't he trapped in the Mirror of Judgement?
Why did you come out again? "
"How is this possible? Did he break free from the Mirror of Judgement?"
"This is too scary!"
“”
An earth-shattering uproar resounded between the heavens and earth. Practically everyone widened their eyes with disbelief on their faces. Clearly, the shock they felt from this scene wasn't any lesser than the shock they felt when Ji Xuan brought out his Sovereign Sea.
The numerous students of the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy were also astonished as they watched this scene. However, when they recovered from their shock, ecstasy abruptly gushed out from their eyes. In the next moment, deafening cheers rang out like thunder.
"Woof, Brother Mu really showed up!"
"Haha, as expected of our Hokuang Reiwon Overlord on the Heaven Leaderboard!"
"Brother Mu, kill those two bastards!"
All the students of Hokuang Reiwon looked excited. Although Luo Li also had astonishing strength, she was too low-key in Hokuang Reiwon. As for Mu Chen, he had started from the moment he entered Hokuang Reiwon.
With a shocking speed, he became the brightest star in Hokuang Reiwon.
And when he surpassed himself time and time again.
He had also started to truly obtain the acknowledgement of everyone in the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy. Even if he had replaced Shen Cangsheng's position as the Overlord of the Heavenly Rankings, there was still no one who felt indignant. That's because they knew that he possessed the qualifications to occupy that position.
Unknowingly, in the hearts of many students of Hokuang Reiwon, Mu Chen had become the benchmark of their Hokuang Reiwon.
It could also be considered as a belief.
Therefore, when they saw Mu Chen reappearing, they were excited in their hearts.
It was practically unconcealable.
"That fellow …" Su Ling 'er's eyes flickered as she looked at the slender silhouette on the Golden Battle Stage. She bit on her rosy lips and clenched her fists in excitement.
"Big Brother Mu Chen has appeared, I knew it.
He definitely won't let people down! "Yu Xi's pretty little face was filled with confidence.
Yu Xi's beautiful face was filled with worship.
Ye Qingling also quietly breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at the surrounding students of the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, who had suddenly burst forth with astonishing vigor. They, who were originally a little dispirited, seemed to have been injected with endless confidence at this moment. Their faces were filled with fanaticism. They seemed to have always believed that as long as Mu Chen appeared.
Then, he would be able to completely turn the situation around.
Because ever since Mu Chen joined Hokuang Reiwon, he had done many things.
It was as if he had never disappointed anyone.
That youth had a charisma that made others involuntarily believe in him. That charisma came from his confidence in himself.
No matter how strong the enemy he faced, he had never retreated, and his fighting spirit had always been overflowing.
"Trying to act cool and save a beauty the moment you've come out. Truly," said Ling Xi with a faint smile, while her tensed and tensed body quietly started to relax. A faint smile appeared on the corner of her rosy lips. In the end, Mu Chen's performance didn't disappoint her.
Amidst the commotion, on the Golden Battle Stage, Mu Chen lowered his head and looked at the two girls in his embrace. "Are the two of you alright?"
Luo Li's beautiful eyes sparkled with pleasant surprise as she looked towards the familiar face. With a faint smile, she shook her head. Upon seeing Mu Chen's face, Wen Qingxuan was first stunned, before being woken up by the uproar that blotted the skies. Only then did she feel Mu Chen's arm that was wrapped around her waist. Instantly, her absolutely beautiful face turned red as she hastily struggled free from Mu Chen's arm, before fiercely glaring at him.
"Trying to take advantage of me?"
Seeing that the girl was about to explode, Mu Chen helplessly said, "Since the situation has arisen, I'm saving you."
"Hmph, does it feel good to have two beauties on your left and right?"
Wen Qingxuan did not buy his words as she snorted, "Furthermore, you've allowed the two girls to fight for so long, isn't your demeanour a little too bad?"
Mu Chen scratched his head. He raised his head and looked at Ji Xuan, who was standing in the sky, as a chill flashed across his black pupils. Shortly after, he smiled, "I'm sorry. So, I'll be the one to take on the next battle."
"Can you do it?
That fellow has already established his Sovereign Sea. Although he's not a genuine Sovereign Realm expert, he's definitely not someone that we can confront. "
Wen Qingxuan cast a doubtful glance at him. However, there was a little worry in the depths of her phoenix-like eyes.
"Let me help you. I can still fight. Although he has established his Sovereign Sea, I might not lose to him if we were to fight." Luo Li spoke out in a soft voice.
Mu Chen smiled as he lightly shook his head, "I've been waiting for this battle for a long time."
Luo Li remained silent as she did not speak any further. That's because she knew that this battle belonged to Mu Chen.
"Be careful."
Luo Li and Wen Qingxuan exchanged a glance as they slowly retreated. Their cold gazes were fixed onto River Of Blood, who was heavily injured by Mu Chen and was currently embedded in the Battle Stage. At this moment, the latter had already lost his ability to fight. However, the two girls clearly despised his despicable means, so they would naturally not let him off so easily.
Mu Chen did not care about the life and death of River Of Blood. His figure slowly floated into the sky, before standing in front of Ji Xuan, facing the latter.
Ji Xuan's cold gaze had been fixed onto Mu Chen ever since he appeared. In the depths of his eyes, a cold light and killing intent interweaved, before a sinister smile was drawn on his face. He slightly tilted his head as he stared at Mu Chen, "I never thought that you would actually be able to make it out. What a surprise."
"Your surprise has only just begun."
Mu Chen smiled. However, there wasn't much warmth in his smile. His eyes were similarly filled with killing intent. He could sense that the Spiritual Energy around Luo Li was a little chaotic. Clearly, it was due to him being injured by Ji Xuan when he exchanged blows with the latter.
Ji Xuan lightly shook his head, "However, it doesn't matter. The fact that you're able to make it out is also in line with my intentions. I'm thinking, if I were to thoroughly defeat you here, would those students of Hokuang Reiwon still trust and revere you?"
Clearly, he had seen the countless students of Hokuang Reiwon bursting with vigor. If he were to truly defeat Mu Chen, those eyes that lit up, before dimming down, would give him a strange pleasure.
Mu Chen smiled, but did not say anything else. His hands slowly clenched as boundless Spiritual Energy erupted like a volcano.
Boom!
A powerful Spiritual Energy rippled around Mu Chen. The density of the Spiritual Energy far exceeded what it was before.
"Oh?
Third Grade Spirit Disaster? "
Sensing the Spiritual Energy ripples, Ji Xuan's brows slightly twitched as a ridiculing smile rose from the corner of his lips. "Looks like you've obtained quite a bit of benefits in the Mirror of Judgement."
Before entering the Mirror of Judgement, Mu Chen's cultivation was only at First Grade Spirit Disaster. But right now, his cultivation had already reached Third Grade Spirit Disaster. Clearly, Mu Chen had actually managed to pass through two Grade Spirit Disasters in the Mirror of Judgement.
"However, this level of Spiritual Energy doesn't pose any threat to me."
Ji Xuan smiled as his face abruptly turned cold. He pointed his finger out and a massive divine light swept out from the Sovereign Sea behind him. As if it had taken on a substantial form, it shuttled through space and shot towards Mu Chen.
The Spiritual Energy ripples emitted from his casual finger had far exceeded an expert that had passed through Third Grade Spirit Disaster.
Boom!
However, when the divine light that contained astonishing Spiritual Energy ripples flew over, Mu Chen still maintained a calm expression. Shortly after, dazzling lightning burst out from his body. Those lightning bolts were like liquid lightning as they coiled around Mu Chen's body and swiftly integrated into his body. Sizzle!
Sizzle!
As lightning flickered, Mu Chen's skin had completely turned silver. Lightning flickered on his chest as lightning runes appeared one after another.
One, five, seven, eight, nine!
Mu Chen's Lightning God's Physique had actually reached the Ennea Rune Lightning Physique at this moment!
When the ninth lightning rune appeared, Mu Chen's pitch-black pupils looked as if they were forged with lightning as lightning flickered in his eyes, as if it was a world of lightning.
He took a step forward and punched out in a gentle manner.
Rumble!
His fist seemed slow, but it had smashed against the solid sacred light in an instant. Lightning gushed out as it shattered the sacred light in an incomparably domineering manner!
"You want to confront a Sovereign with the strength of your physical body?
What a fool's dream! "
When Ji Xuan saw Mu Chen, who was covered in lightning, his eyes slightly narrowed as he sneered. He could sense that Mu Chen's physical body had become extremely powerful. But if Mu Chen wanted to confront him with just that, then he could only say that Mu Chen was too naive.
"You can be considered as a Sovereign expert?"
Mu Chen smiled as he looked at the boundless Sovereign Sea behind Ji Xuan. The corner of his lips lifted as he slowly said, "Isn't it just an imperfect Sovereign Sea?
Do you think that you're the only one who possesses it? "
Hearing Mu Chen's words, Ji Xuan abruptly narrowed his eyes.
