Mu Chen stood in the air above the sea of trees that was filled with golden light. His black eyes stared ahead sharply. Above the sea of trees, he could vaguely see seven figures standing tall.
The seven figures stood a thousand feet apart from each other as boundless Spiritual Energy ripples swept out from their bodies, causing gales to whistle. Looking at each other, their eyes were filled with fear and caution.
Because they knew that if they wanted to ascend the Allheaven Goldplatform, then they were each other's greatest obstruction.
Those seven silhouettes were all elites from the various forces of the Great Havenlaw Domain. Any one of them wouldn't be any weaker than the four heads of Mt Mang. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to lead the group that ascended the mountain. It was also because of this that when they encountered each other, a fierce battle would definitely break out between them.
Anyone that wanted to ascend the Allheaven Goldplatform from this direction would surely draw the hostility and attacks of the seven of them.
Therefore, when Mu Chen appeared, the gazes of the seven people immediately shot over. Immediately, their eyes hardened. It was likely that they had recognized Mu Chen. After all, the commotion caused by the latter's fight with the four leaders of Mang Mountain was not small.
The fighting strength that Mu Chen had displayed made them feel fearful in their hearts.
The seven of them frowned. They did not expect that Mu Chen would actually come from their direction. If that was the case, they would have one more formidable enemy. After witnessing Mu Chen's previous battle, they understood that if they were to fight one on one, none of them would be a match for Mu Chen.
The gazes of the seven people intertwined at the same time.
Their eyes flickered slightly, and they reached a consensus at the same time. Although this Mu Chen was powerful, he was not a match for him.
However, if they wanted to pass through here, they would have to join forces to intimidate him and make him understand that no matter how powerful he was, he still had to abide by the rules in this place.
Mu Chen looked at their gazes, but his handsome face remained calm.
It was likely that he already knew the intentions of the seven of them. However, he did not retreat. Instead, he deeply inhaled a mouthful of air.
His black eyes gradually sharpened.
So what if the seven Supreme Martial Artists tried to stop him?
Even a super powerhouse like Luo Tianshen couldn't stop Mu Chen, let alone these people in front of him.
The road ahead was covered with thorns.
Even if it was a bloody battle.
He would also charge forward without fear!
Dong!
Mu Chen abruptly took a step forth, causing the space behind him to distort. His Sovereign Sea vaguely appeared, as if there were purple flames surging. Visible Spiritual Energy shock waves abruptly swept out with his body as the centre, causing the sea of trees down below to collapse.
Whoosh!
Mu Chen stomped his foot heavily.
His figure transformed into a ray of light that flashed out explosively towards the Allheaven Goldplatform.
"Stop right there!"
When the seven Supreme-Being experts saw Mu Chen, they actually ignored him.
Just as he was about to charge towards the Greatlaw Goldstage, he furiously barked. Mu Chen was too arrogant, was he treating them as nothing?
The seven of them had rage in their eyes as they attacked at the same time. Boundless Spiritual Energy swept out like an enraged dragon as it swiftly shot towards Mu Chen.
Up in the sky, the light figure that was formed by Mu Chen suddenly paused as he looked at the Spiritual Energy that was sweeping over. A chill surged in his eyes as he stomped his feet. A pitch-black beam of light soared from the top of his head as an indescribable Baleful Aura exploded at this moment.
The Great Meru Demonic Pillar charged out from the beam of light as it expanded, becoming a few hundred feet in size, like a pillar that supported the heavens.
Mu Chen hugged the air as he swung the Great Meru Demonic Pillar down. Instantly, the space before him shattered as a torrential ominous aura caused the heavens and earth to turn dark.
Boom!
The Great Meru Demonic Pillar heavily slammed down, causing the seven Spiritual Energy beams to explode. Furthermore, its momentum did not decrease as it smashed towards the three Supreme-Being experts up ahead.
The Great Meru Demonic Pillar brought along a shadow and ominous aura as it rolled over. The sea of trees down below was instantly torn apart. The faces of the three Supreme-Being experts that were enveloped in the attack changed. Clearly, they had sensed how terrifying Mu Chen's attack was.
Boom!
The three Sovereign Celestial Bodies appeared at the same time as their massive figures clashed with the Great Meru Demonic Pillar. In an instant, a gale swept out as the sea of trees within a few thousand feet in radius was razed to the ground.
The three Sovereign Celestial Bodies retreated as their massive feet caused the ground to tremble, leaving huge craters. When they stabilized their bodies, a smear of astonishment surged in their eyes.
Only at this moment did they understand the fear of the four heads of Mt Mang. The moment the youth before them made his move, it would definitely be a killing move without the slightest bit of leniency.
They raised their heads and saw Mu Chen standing in the sky with the Great Meru Demonic Pillar that was emitting an ominous aura behind him. The ominous aura was akin to that of an ancient demon god.
The black pupils of the youth with a slender figure seemed to be blazing with flames. There weren't any ripples of emotions on his handsome face. However, his gaze made their hearts tremble.
It was a resolute gaze that seemed as if nothing could shake him.
For the sake of walking down this path, the youth before them seemed to be willing to pay the price with his life. Any enemies that obstructed his path would be reduced to ashes under his feet.
Boom!
While they were shocked in their hearts, Mu Chen's figure moved as he appeared on the Great Meru Demonic Pillar. Thereafter, the demonic pillar turned into a dark light as it flew out. His speed was extremely fast. If the seven Supreme-Beings wanted to obstruct him, they would be able to easily obstruct him.
However, this time, no one dared to make a move.
That's because they could feel a heart-palpitating fiendish aura coming from Mu Chen's body. The latter's resolute gaze made them understand that the moment they took action, the boy in front of them would engage in a battle to the death with them.
For the sake of cultivating to this step, they had put in countless efforts. Therefore, they treasured their lives. Although the quota of the Greatlaw Goldpond was precious, it wasn't worth a mention compared to their lives.
Furthermore, even if they were to ascend the Greatlaw Goldstage, they would still have to face the four powerful Great Domain Lords. Therefore, if they were to fight with such a resolute and ferocious person here, the gains wouldn't make up for the losses.
The gazes of the seven constantly flickered as hesitation and struggle surged in their eyes.
However, Mu Chen disregarded them as he stood on the Great Meru Demonic Pillar. A violent gale blew over, fluttering his robes. The youth's gaze seemed to be surging with flames.
Below the Goldpond Peak, innumerable people held their breaths as they watched this scene. The action of Mu Chen charging into the encirclement of the seven Supreme-Beings by himself was clearly a visual impact.
Tang Bing, Tang Rou and the rest tightly clenched their fists as their hearts rose to their throats. But while they were feeling incomparably nervous, they felt that the current Mu Chen seemed to have caused them to be unable to shift their eyes away.
That youth might be a little younger than them, but his aura completely crushed the other powerhouses of the same level.
Under the innumerable gazes, Mu Chen finally charged into the encirclement of the seven Supreme-Beings. However, he still did not stop in the slightest as he calmly controlled the Great Meru Demonic Pillar and charged out. In the end, he brushed past the seven Supreme-Beings.
From the start to the end, the seven Supreme-Beings did not make a move.
It was so much so that when Mu Chen brushed past them, they had even quietly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts. The gaze of that youth made them understand that if they were to make a move, even if they could obstruct Mu Chen today, they would definitely have to pay an extremely heavy price.
They were unable to imagine why a youth would possess such a firm and sharp gaze. But after so many years of cultivation, they knew that such a ruthless character was not to be trifled with.
Therefore, they could only helplessly flick their lips in the end, before feeling relieved. The achievements of this youth in the future would definitely be extraordinary. How could they obstruct his footsteps?
Rustle.
When Mu Chen charged through the encirclement of the seven Supreme-Beings without any obstruction, an uproar broke out from below the Goldpond Peak. Many experts had astonishment on their faces as they clearly felt that it was a little hard to believe.
Since they were not present, they were naturally unable to understand the actions of the seven Supreme-Beings.
Up in the sky, the three Emperors quietly looked at the massive Spiritual Energy light screen. Looking at the youth standing on the Great Meru Demonic Pillar, their gazes slightly flickered.
"This Mu Chen has an extraordinary future. Our Great Heaven Domain has finally produced a pretty good figure."
The Sleeping Emperor, who had been drowsy, had actually opened his eyes at this moment. His pupils were as deep as the night sky, filled with wisdom as he looked at the slender figure and said in an ethereal voice.
When the Sky Vulture Emperor and Spiritual Pupils Emperor heard the words of the Sleeping Emperor, they were slightly startled. After all, in all these years, this was the first time that they had heard the Sleeping Emperor praising a junior in such a manner. This treatment was something that not even the Four Great Domain Lords could obtain.
The Sky Vulture Emperor had a pretty good relationship with Jiu You, so he smiled on the spot. As for the Spiritual Pupils Emperor, he said in an indifferent tone, "There are too many geniuses in the world, and there are as many outstanding people as there are stars in the sky. But in the end, there are still too few that can stand out."
When the Sleeping Emperor heard his words, he gave a noncommittal smile as he closed his eyes once again and became lazy.
Above the sea of trees, Mu Chen, who had passed through the encirclement of the seven Supreme-Beings, waved his sleeve and the Great Meru Demonic Pillar was stored into his body. Shortly after, the tip of his feet tapped on the sky as his figure flew out. Ten-odd breaths later, the dazzling golden Greatlaw Goldstage had already appeared before him.
He slowly took a step out and his feet landed on it. The hard sensation made a smear of an arc appear on the corner of his lips. He had finally walked onto the Greatlaw Goldstage.
After passing through here, the Greatlaw Goldpond would be within his reach!
(Apologies, I'm half an hour late.)
