When Mu Chen's hand fell onto Ji Xuan's throat like an eagle's pincer, it only took an instant for sparks to fly off a flint. It was so much so that many people's eyes were still stuck on the instant when Mu Chen's figure disappeared. Thereafter, their eyes widened as they saw this scene that made them feel somewhat terrified.
Mu Chen stood as his hand held onto Ji Xuan's throat, lifting the latter up. Ji Xuan, who was previously like a hot knife through butter, was like a helpless baby in Mu Chen's hand. He was in such a sorry state that he was even a little powerless.
The entire place was silent, no one lost their voice. That's because this scene was too shocking, to the point that no one dared to make a sound.
Who could have imagined that the situation would suddenly turn around?
Ji Xuan, who had completely suppressed Mu Chen to the point that he couldn't even retaliate, was suppressed once again after a few minutes of being complacent.
Mu Chen's counterattack was clearly even more direct.
However, what made everyone even more shocked was the fact that Mu Chen's strength had clearly reached an extremely terrifying degree. It was so much so that it had far surpassed Ji Xuan, who had borrowed the power of the Primordial Skydragon Hawk.
Just what was going on?
Under the innumerable astonished gazes, Ji Xuan's entire face had turned red as he frantically struggled. Dense humiliation and malevolence appeared in his eyes. His current posture had nearly caused his stomach to explode from the anger. All these years, he had always been moving forward, far surpassing those of the same age as him. He had enjoyed the innumerable revered gazes, and it was always him trampling his opponents beneath his feet. However, he had never imagined that there would be a day where he would be in such a sorry state.
This wasn't something that Ji Xuan, who was extremely proud in his bones, could accept at all. As far as he was concerned, this was even more torturous than killing him.
"I'm going to tear you to pieces!"
Ji Xuan roared as boundless Spiritual Energy swept out like a storm, like a raging dragon.
It directly swept towards Mu Chen.
However, in the face of such a shocking attack, Mu Chen merely glanced at it indifferently.
With a flick of his finger, a sea of purple flames swept out.
Upon contact, the boundless Spiritual Energy that was sweeping over was instantly turned into nothingness.
Whoosh!
Ji Xuan's incomparably sharp fingertips drew a cunning and ruthless arc as they pointed straight at Mu Chen's eyes.
Dong!
However, before his finger could land, Mu Chen's palm had already landed heavily on his chest.
A muffled sound rang out, and Ji Xuan's chest seemed to have caved in slightly. A mouthful of fresh blood spurted from his mouth, and his body was once again sent flying.
Bang!
His body was still in midair.
Mu Chen's phantom-like figure once again appeared in front of him. The youth's handsome face appeared exceedingly cold and indifferent. Another heavy punch was sent smashing downwards.
Purple flames surged, and the high temperature caused the surrounding space to violently distort.
Mu Chen's fist ruthlessly landed on Ji Xuan's body, and the high temperature wreaked havoc.
The latter's body instantly turned crimson, as if he was about to combust.
Pfft.
Another mouthful of fresh blood spurted from his mouth, and Ji Xuan's body was heavily shot into the collapsed Battle Stage. He laid on the ground, and blood flowed from his body. His originally handsome face had become extremely distorted and terrifying at this moment.
He fixed his gaze on Mu Chen, who was in the sky, and the venomous hatred in his eyes seemed to want to devour him. His body trembled as he muttered, "How is this possible? How can he possess such powerful strength?!"
Originally, victory was already in sight. However, who could have expected that such an unbelievable turn of events would occur?
"This strength doesn't belong to him. Furthermore, his physical body is stronger than yours, and the strength that he can endure is also much stronger than yours."
An eerie voice rang out in Ji Xuan's heart. "Even if you borrow my strength, you can only barely reach the First Grade Sovereign Realm. However, he possesses the strength of a Second Grade Sovereign Realm. It's naturally impossible for you to contend against him."
"I'll kill him, I'll kill him!" Ji Xuan's eyes turned crimson.
"Sure, I'll control his physical body, and killing him will be as easy as flipping my hand." The eerie voice laughed, and there was a sinister intent in it.
Ji Xuan clenched his teeth. If it was during normal times, he would naturally not agree to such a thing. However, at this moment, when he saw Mu Chen looking at him indifferently from the sky, the venomous hatred in his heart violently gushed out, and even corroded his rationale. He should be standing there and receiving the cheers of the crowd, and not lying on the ground like a dead dog.
He absolutely cannot lose to Mu Chen!
He said that he would definitely trample him beneath his feet!
"Kill him!" Ji Xuan's voice trembled as he spoke with a venomous voice.
"Haha, as you wish." The eerie voice instantly laughed.
Ji Xuan slowly closed his eyes.
The blood flowing from his body quietly stopped, and the chaotic Spiritual Energy ripples gradually stabilized. Thereafter, he slowly opened his tightly shut eyes. However, his eyes no longer had the twisted and venomous hatred from before. Instead, it was replaced with an eerie feeling.
He slowly stood up and stretched his neck. Feeling this unfamiliar yet familiar body, he couldn't help but grin and said, "I can finally control my body!"
He raised his head and looked at Mu Chen with a smile. "I really have to thank you."
Mu Chen frowned his brows as he looked at Ji Xuan. Although the latter didn't have any powerful Spiritual Energy ripples around him, his gaze gave him an extremely dangerous feeling. Furthermore, the current Ji Xuan felt extremely unfamiliar, completely different from the past.
"You're the Primordial Skydragon Hawk, right?" Mu Chen slowly said.
"You're pretty smart."
Ji Xuan lightly smiled and did not deny it. Shortly after, he smiled. "But I promised him that I would kill you. Therefore, I can only let you suffer a little."
Boom!
As he spoke, Mu Chen had already sent a palm out. Purple flames swept out, forming into a huge palm of purple flames that pressed down towards Ji Xuan.
"You only have the strength of a Sovereign. Compared to a genuine Sovereign, you're still too far away."
Seeing Mu Chen's attack, Ji Xuan faintly smiled as he sent a palm out. His palm lightly clashed with the huge palm of purple flames. Although it seemed to be a disproportionate collision, the huge palm of purple flames instantly crumbled upon contact.
Around the fighting ring, the spectators were almost numb when they saw this scene.
As for the ups and downs of the battle, they expressed that they could not understand at all.
Mu Chen's figure burst in retreat as his handsome face was filled with graveness.
The current "Ji Xuan" was almost completely different from before, not just in terms of power.
Not only was his strength different, but his control over his strength was also on a completely different level. Clearly, the other party was a genuine Sovereign.
"You can't escape."
The space behind Mu Chen suddenly distorted as Ji Xuan's figure appeared in a flash. With a faint smile, he said, "Let me show you what a genuine Sovereign is."
He curled two of his fingers as he pointed down.
A dark purple Spiritual Energy swept out. This Spiritual Energy was filled with a chilling aura. Not only was it more condensed, it was also filled with spirituality.
In terms of quality, this Spiritual Energy had far surpassed the Spiritual Energy that Ji Xuan had previously used.
"Sword Transformation!"
The dark purple Spiritual Energy shot out and formed into a huge purple sword that instantly tore through space.
With an indescribable speed, it stabbed towards Mu Chen's head.
Mu Chen's figure rapidly retreated as his hand seals changed. Boundless Spiritual Energy shot out.
Boom!
Boom!
However, wherever the giant sword passed, all obstructions were destroyed. It was as if it was crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood.
It was shocking.
Mu Chen's face couldn't help changing. The huge sword wasn't terrifying, but it emitted an extremely powerful pressure. Because of that pressure, his body couldn't move at all.
Rustle!
In the next instant, all the attacks were destroyed and the huge sword appeared before Mu Chen. However, just when the huge sword was about to slash down, a slender jade-like hand suddenly stretched out from behind Mu Chen. With a light flick, purple flames swept out and turned the huge sword into ashes.
Ji Xuan's pupils abruptly contracted. Shortly after, his dark and cold gaze slowly shifted towards Mu Chen's back.
Everyone's gazes shifted as they looked at the graceful figure that had appeared behind Mu Chen in astonishment. At this moment, even if everyone was already numb to it, they still couldn't help feeling astonished.
"Who is that?"
Under countless astonished gazes, the beautiful figure grew clearer and clearer. In the end, it turned into a woman dressed in black. She had a tall and elegant face. As her beautiful eyes looked around, there was a hint of wildness, revealing her untamed nature. Her willowy waist was so thin that it was not enough for a single arm to wrap around it. In particular, her exceptionally long and perfectly straight legs made one's heart itch just by looking at them.
When the black-clothed woman appeared, a clear cry resounded between the heavens and earth. In the next instant, everyone could see purple flames sweeping behind the woman. Vaguely, an incomparably huge figure appeared. It seemed to be a huge black bird that was flapping its cloud-like wings. As it let out a long cry, it shook the heavens and earth.
"That's the Jiu You Sparrow?!"
High up in the sky, the Deans of some Spiritual Academies were startled as they muttered.
"It's actually the main body as well. So there's also a super Spiritual Beast hiding within Mu Chen's body. The youngsters nowadays are truly formidable."
"However, could it be that Mu Chen is also in a lodging relationship with the Jiu You Sparrow?"
“”
Not far away, Luo Li and Wen Qingxuan were also a little astonished as they looked at the unfamiliar beauty.
"Who is she?
Why haven't I seen her before?
That fellow, Mu Chen, wouldn't be having an affair behind your back, right? "
Wen Qingxuan shot a glance at the Jiu You Sparrow. The latter also possessed an extraordinary appearance and temperament. Even she was startled by his pair of slender legs. Naturally, the most unique thing about him was his temperament that was filled with wildness.
After a brief pondering, Luo Li said in a soft voice, "I'm afraid that she should be the Jiu You Sparrow. She has a Bloodlink Bond with Mu Chen, except that she has been in a deep slumber all these years."
"Bloodlink Bond?"
Wen Qingxuan was startled as she muttered, "With the pride of a super Spiritual Beast like the Jiu You Sparrow, how could it possibly have a Bloodlink Bond with a human?
What did that fellow, Mu Chen, do to her? "
Up in the sky, the Jiu You Sparrow paid no attention to the others. She only swept an indifferent glance at 'Ji Xuan' and said, "I initially didn't want to bicker with you, but you're too much of a bully. Since you like to interfere in the battle of others, then let me accompany you."
"So it's someone from the Jiu You Sparrow Clan."
Ji Xuan looked at the Jiu You Sparrow with a dark expression and sneered, "According to the lifespan of the Jiu You Sparrow Clan, I'm afraid that you haven't even reached maturity yet, right?
You dare to challenge me like that? "
On the Spiritual Beast Ranking, the Primordial Skydragon Hawk's ranking was higher than the Jiu You Sparrow. Therefore, the Primordial Skydragon Hawk wasn't afraid of the appearance of the Jiu You Sparrow.
"Don't blindly believe in that kind of trash."
As if she knew what the Primordial Jiu You Sparrow was thinking, the Jiu You Sparrow flung her rosy lips aside. Shortly after, a purplish flame condensed on her finger as she tilted her head and looked at Ji Xuan with ridicule. "Furthermore, I'm not the Jiu You Sparrow, but …"
The purplish flame in the eyes of the Primordial Jiu You Sparrow grew deeper. At the same time, an indescribable pressure suddenly swept out from her body and filled the heavens and earth, causing the heavens and earth to change colour.
"Jiu!
You!
Ming!
Sparrow! "
That was the pressure of a genuine Divine Beast!
