A streak of light streaked across the horizon.
Mu Chen's figure turned into a streak of light as he streaked across the sky. The injuries on his back had already fully recovered at this moment. The degree of recovery caused even him to feel some shock. Clearly, this frightening recovery ability was due to the Undying Flames that had been fused into his Spiritual Energy.
If it was in the past, Mu Chen would definitely need to rest and adjust his breathing before he could continue on his journey.
"The Undying Flames are truly profound."
Mu Chen couldn't help sighing as he turned his head to look at the far back and sighed. Clearly, he still hadn't recovered from the fact that Lin Jing was actually the princess of the Martial Realm.
"What's wrong?
You can't bear to part with it? "
Jiu You appeared beside Mu Chen as she stared at him with a peculiar gaze. "Compared to the Great Heaven Domain, the Martial Realm is much more powerful. You actually rejected it?"
Mu Chen lightly smiled as he replied, "Perhaps I can obtain protection if I join the Martial Realm, and no one will dare to provoke me. But so what?"
"The supreme expert that I'm talking about doesn't come like this."
As he spoke, the youth's eyes slightly narrowed as he smiled. "Furthermore, since that Wu Zu could achieve this, why can't I?"
"Your ambition is truly not small." Jiu You's brows lightly twitched as she spoke.
"Haha, although I'm a little overestimating myself, if I don't even have this courage, then how can I be a supreme expert?" Mu Chen laughed as his black pupils were brimming with confidence.
Jiu You sweetly smiled as she looked into the distance. "The next city should be the Teleportation Spiritual Array to the Greatlaw Continent. At that time, we will be able to end our two-month journey."
Mu Chen quietly breathed a sigh of relief. The past two months of travel had not been easy, but it had finally come to an end.
Mu Chen clenched his fist and the Spatial Seed Bracelet that he had snatched from Liu Ming appeared in a flash.
He poured his Spiritual Energy into it and his hands flickered. Then, two rays of light appeared in his hands.
Within the two rays of light, a blazing sun and a withered leaf floated quietly.
It exuded a strange spiritual energy fluctuation.
Mu Chen's eyes burned as he stared at them, a smile involuntarily curling from the corners of his mouth, while a sliver of excitement surfaced in his heart. He had finally gathered the three materials needed to cultivate the Great Solar Undying Body.
It really wasn't easy.
Mu Chen sighed in his heart. If he had stayed in Hokuang Reiwon, he would not have been able to survive.
Perhaps he would never be able to gather all of these materials.
"When do you intend to cultivate the Sovereign Celestial Body?"
Jiu You asked as he stared at the two lumps of light. If Mu Chen really wanted to compete for the position of the Great Heaven Domain's Commander, then he would definitely have to experience an intense battle. His competitors would all be the elites in the Great Heaven Domain.
With their strength, they wouldn't be any weaker than Liu Ming, who relied on the accumulation of resources.
Therefore, if Mu Chen wanted to succeed, he would have to cultivate his Sovereign Celestial Body at the very least. Otherwise, he would be at a great disadvantage.
"Cultivating the Sovereign Celestial Body isn't something that can be done in a day or two. I'll wait till we reach the Great Heaven Domain before I start cultivating." Mu Chen muttered. The Great Solar Undying Body that he had cultivated wasn't a simple item.
No one knew what would happen during the cultivation. Now that the two of them were alone, if they attracted trouble and caused the cultivation to fail, then he would suffer a great loss. After all, he had prepared three types of materials. If the cultivation failed, then he would suffer a great loss.
Then they would be incinerated.
Jiu You nodded her head.
"Then, let's speed up."
Jiu You looked into the distance as reminiscence gushed out from her slender eyes. It had been many years since she left the Great Heaven Domain.
She wondered how her Jiu You Palace was doing.
Boundless Spiritual Energy gushed out from the two of them as their figures turned into streaks of light and streaked across the horizon at lightning speed. In the blink of an eye, they had already disappeared into the horizon.
Greatlaw Continent, Sky Profound Palace
The Sky Profound Palace was located in the north of the Greatlaw Continent. As one of the peak forces in the Greatlaw Continent, the Sky Profound Palace had an extremely high position in this continent. The territory that they controlled was vast and boundless. In terms of surface area, not even a dozen Northern Heavens Continents could compare to it.
In this vast territory, the Sky Profound Palace was the only ruler. Although there were other forces under them, they had to rely on the Sky Profound Palace to survive. Every year, they had to hand over a large amount of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid as offerings.
At this moment, in the centre of the Sky Profound Palace, there was an indescribably majestic golden palace. Clouds shrouded around it as golden light blossomed, making it look like a fairyland, majestic and ethereal.
In the depths of the golden palace was a place that was filled with spiritual light. In the centre of the spiritual light, there seemed to be a light lotus with a figure quietly sitting on it.
That figure was akin to a boulder. His breathing was extremely rhythmic. Every time he breathed in and out, there would be the sound of wind and thunder resounding within the hall. Boundless Spiritual Energy whistled out, akin to a Spiritual Sea.
Suddenly, the figure that was immersed in his cultivation state abruptly opened his eyes. The lustre in his eyes seemed to have pierced through space as a trace of rage appeared.
He stretched his hand out and an ancient jade pendant could be seen in his hand. Right now, the lustre of the jade pendant was gradually dimming down.
"Ming 'er's Spirit Seal is weakening. What guts to injure the son of I, Liu Tiandao!" Sharpness surged in that figure's eyes as his deep voice caused a violent gale to blow in the palace.
He flicked his finger and the ancient jade pendant flew up. That figure's hand seals changed as spiritual light enveloped the jade pendant in an attempt to probe Liu Ming's location.
However, after probing for a brief moment, there wasn't any reaction from the jade pendant, nor was there any information sent out.
"Unable to probe?
How is that possible?! "
That figure exclaimed as he abruptly stood up. The spiritual light around him retracted. It was a middle-aged man donned in azure robes. That man's gaze was as deep as the starry sky. Every single movement of his was emitting a terrifying pressure.
That person was the Palace Master of the Sky Profound Palace, a famed pinnacle expert in the Greatlaw Continent, Liu Tiandao.
At this moment, his face was a little dark as his gaze flickered. At this moment, Liu Ming must have fallen into some sort of predicament. Furthermore, the strength of the person that made a move against him must be extremely terrifying. Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to isolate himself from his probe.
"I will take a look at who dares to make a move against my son!"
Liu Tiandao coldly snorted as he waved his sleeve. A huge Eight Trigrams light plate appeared in a flash. Shortly after, he flicked his finger, shattering the Spirit Seal. A ray of light shot out and charged into the Eight Trigrams light plate.
Buzz! Buzz!
The Eight Trigrams light plate instantly revolved as countless profound runes gushed out, enveloping the golden light within. The space above the Eight Trigrams slightly distorted, as if it was probing through space.
The space in that area became even more distorted and in the end, a small spatial crack was torn apart. When Liu Tiandao saw this, he took a step into it and his silhouette instantly disappeared.
Merchant Continent, the place where Liu Ming was being suppressed
The space here suddenly distorted. A brief moment later, a silhouette stepped out and appeared in the sky. His sharp gaze swept around this region, before focusing on the ground.
Spiritual light gathered in his eyes, as if he had seen through the ground and saw a mountain of spiritual light on the ground.
"The Heavens and Earth Phase?
It was actually done by an Earth Sovereign Realm? "
Liu Tiandao's face slightly changed as rage surged in his eyes. He coldly snorted as he waved his sleeve, causing the ground below to split apart.
As the ground split apart, a majestic mountain of spiritual light appeared.
Liu Tiandao's silhouette moved as he landed on the mountain of spiritual light. Shortly after, he formed seals with both of his hands and a streak of light shot out, enveloping the mountain of spiritual energy.
He planned to dissolve the spiritual power of this spiritual mountain and restore it to its original form.
However, as time passed, Liu Tiandao's face gradually turned ugly as he realised that his dissolution didn't have much effect.
That's because there seemed to be a surge of energy resisting in the mountain of spiritual energy. That energy contained the will of the mysterious expert that made a move.
"What a ruthless method."
Liu Tiandao's face was cold. The person that made a move seemed to have the intention to suppress Liu Ming here. With the latter's strength, he would definitely die if he continued to suppress him.
Although Liu Tiandao possessed the strength of an Earth Sovereign Realm, he actually couldn't dissolve the mountain of spiritual energy in a short period of time. If he forcefully destroyed it, he would probably injure Liu Ming, who was suppressed below.
Looks like Liu Ming seemed to have offended someone that he shouldn't have.
"No matter who you are, even if my son is in the wrong, it's not up to you to suppress him."
Liu Tiandao's gaze changed as he coldly snorted, flicked his sleeves and left. Since that mysterious expert wanted to fight with him, then he would accompany him to the end.
When he retrieved the Divine Artifact from the palace, he refused to believe that the remnant will in the mountain of spiritual energy could contend with him.
Along with Liu Tiandao's departure, the land rumbled as it returned to normal. The huge mountain was buried in the ground once again.
As the main characters, Mu Chen and Jiu You had no idea about this. The two of them rushed to the next city at their fastest speed and activated the Teleportation Spiritual Array.
In that instant when the Spiritual Array was activated, Mu Chen couldn't help taking a deep breath as dense expectations surged in his eyes.
Skylaw Continent, here I come.
My path to become an expert will start from here.
