"Demonic Runes!"
A deep roar resounded from within Mu Chen's heart as ancient scarlet-red light runes surfaced on the Great Meru Demonic Pillar. Those light runes were akin to cracks as they covered the Great Meru Demonic Pillar, making it look as if it was about to shatter.
However, it was precisely because of this shattering state that an indescribable ominous aura swept out from those cracks, causing the Great Meru Demonic Pillar to look like a demon god that was about to awaken, appearing extremely frightening.
The Great Meru Demonic Pillar was an Ominous Artifact from the ancient times, one that had experienced the hands of many powerful experts in the ancient times. Although it was damaged at this moment, along with the rise of Mu Chen's strength, its might was also slowly being displayed. Such ferocious might wasn't something that ordinary Divine Artifacts could compare to.
Boom!
The Great Meru Demonic Pillar, which was accompanied by a torrential ominous aura, heavily swung down. Instantly, the surrounding space distorted and the air exploded. In the end, in an extremely shocking manner, it collided with the blood hawk that was whistling over.
Boom!
As the two collided, a deep ear-piercing muffled sound rang out. Frightening Spiritual Energy shock waves were akin to myriad feet high waves as they violently swept out in all directions.
Rumble!
As the violent Spiritual Energy impact wreaked havoc, it seemed to bring along endless thunderous roars.
Everyone focused their gazes at the location where the Spiritual Energy shock waves were the most violent. At that location, a slender youth stood as straight as a spear. His hands were hugging the Great Meru Demonic Pillar as his feet slid across the ground as he slowly retreated.
Every time he took a step back, the ground would shatter into powder.
A scarlet-red light surged within Mu Chen's eyes as a deep roar rang out from his throat. In the next instant, he fiercely stomped his feet, causing the golden ground in a radius of a dozen feet to explode apart.
"Break!"
The veins on his arms were wiggling like dragons.
With an explosive roar, a torrential ominous aura surged from the Great Meru Demonic Pillar.
Screech!
A sharp eagle cry resounded, and fine cracks actually appeared on the giant blood eagle.
Cracks rapidly spread out. In the end, with a crisp bang, the Blood Hawk exploded, turning into blood-red specks of light that filled the sky as they slowly drifted down.
Up in the sky, a muffled sound rang out as a figure staggered within the boundless Spiritual Energy shock wave. Mu Chen had forcefully broken through Cao Feng's attack, which had clearly caused him to be affected as well.
Swoosh!
Mu Chen's face was cold.
With a stomp of his feet, his figure rose from the ground like a roc spreading its wings. The Great Meru Demonic Pillar instantly turned into a shadow and fiercely swung down at the place where the violent Spiritual Energy was spreading.
Mu Chen's attack was exceptionally fierce.
Since he had gained the slightest advantage, he would not give the other party the slightest chance to breathe.
The Great Meru Demonic Pillar tyrannically tore apart the violent Spiritual Energy as it heavily smashed towards the direction of the figure within.
Boom!
As the Great Meru Demonic Pillar charged into the spreading Spiritual Energy, Mu Chen's eyes abruptly narrowed.
A violent shockwave erupted and the Spiritual Energy that filled the air was instantly dispersed. Countless gazes were directed in that direction.
Their pupils abruptly shrank.
In the place where the Spiritual Energy light was spreading out, a light figure that was a few hundred feet in size stood proudly. That light figure was blood-red in colour, as if it was formed from blood.
On the surface of that massive figure, there were even strange runes that were formed from blood. Waves of terrifying Spiritual Energy fluctuations were emitted from that light figure, causing the space in this region to tremble and distort.
At this moment, that massive figure …
A huge hand that was flickering with a bloody light was blocking the Great Meru Demonic Pillar. As the bloody light surged, it looked like fresh blood was constantly flowing down.
That massive figure was the Sovereign Celestial Body that Cao Feng had cultivated!
"This Sovereign Celestial Body!"
Mu Chen also stared at the blood-red Sovereign Celestial Body. From that Sovereign Celestial Body, he could sense an extremely powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuation. His gaze slightly flickered as he said in a soft voice, "It's actually the 99th ranked Blood Shadow Celestial Body!"
Although the Blood Shadow Celestial Body was only ranked at the 99th rank, it was, after all, on the ranking. Naturally, it was more powerful than ordinary Sovereign Celestial Bodies. It looked like Cao Feng was indeed highly regarded in the Blood Hawk Hall. Otherwise, it would be hard for him to obtain the cultivation method of the Blood Shadow Celestial Body. It was no wonder why he would betray the Jiu You Palace and rely on the Blood Hawk Hall.
"Since you can force me to use the Blood Shadow Celestial Body, you're pretty capable!"
The Blood Shadow Celestial Body that was formed by Cao Feng stared at Mu Chen with his scarlet eyes like a wild beast as his cold voice rumbled throughout this region.
There was a trace of rage in his voice. Initially, he thought that with his strength at Second Grade Sovereign, it would be sufficient for him to suppress Mu Chen. But after exchanging blows, he realised that he couldn't gain the upper hand at all. On the contrary, he was slightly suppressed by the torrential ominous demonic pillar. How could he endure this?
Right now, everyone in the Great Heaven Domain was watching this place. If he lost to Mu Chen, then he wouldn't have any place to stand in the future.
Therefore, no matter what, he had to kill Mu Chen before him!
Dense killing intent flashed across the eyes of the Blood Shadow Celestial Body. Shortly after, his blood palm abruptly slapped against the Great Meru Demonic Pillar. A terrifying Spiritual Energy exploded, sending the demonic pillar flying away.
Mu Chen's figure burst in retreat as he waved his hand. The Great Meru Demonic Pillar whistled over and stood on the ground. He stood on the top of the pillar as he coldly stared at the massive Blood Shadow Celestial Body.
"Blood Explosion Art!"
Killing intent surged in Cao Feng's heart as his blood palm abruptly formed seals. Shortly after, it was like an eagle's claw as it clawed towards Mu Chen from afar.
Boom!
As his claw whistled, the sky seemed to have turned red. Far away, Mu Chen's body stiffened as the blood in his body showed signs of boiling and exploding.
Cao Feng's Blood Shadow Celestial Body was actually able to explode the blood in a person's body from such a distance. This method was truly bizarre.
"Boom!"
Mu Chen abruptly stomped his feet as a dazzling lightning exploded. His body was swiftly being transformed into lightning. The silvery light was dazzling as if he was a lightning god that had descended. Thereafter, he threw a punch forth. Raging lightning surged as if thousands of lightning pythons were whistling over, shattering the blood light.
"Blood Shadow!"
When Cao Feng saw this, he coldly smiled.
Innumerable streaks of blood shot out from his body. It was as if tens of thousands of shadows had streaked past as they coiled towards Mu Chen from every direction.
Those blood shadows.
Sharp whistles resounded as sound waves spread out, causing an incomparable piercing pain in the mind, as if their heads were about to explode.
Mu Chen lightly knitted his brows as he tapped the ground with the tip of his foot and his figure explosively retreated. Thunder resounded beside his ears as he resisted the interference of the whistling sound waves. Thereafter, both of his fists abruptly shot forth.
Boom!
Boom!
Earth-shattering lightning fists whistled out as they clashed with the innumerable blood shadows.
Instantly, the heavens and earth rumbled unceasingly. However, with each impact, Mu Chen's figure would be sent flying hundreds of feet away.
Everyone could see that Mu Chen had been completely suppressed into a disadvantageous position this time.
At the Jiu You Palace, Tang Bing and Tang Rou's hearts were pounding as they watched.
However, they did not say anything because they knew how powerful Cao Feng was at this moment.
"The current you is like a stray dog. Where is the awe-inspiring aura you had before?"
Cao Feng coldly laughed as his attacks intensified. Shortly after, he looked at Mu Chen, who was only retreating, and the killing intent in his eyes suddenly surged to the extreme.
His hands suddenly formed a strange seal.
"You think you can just keep running?"
"Demon Blood Bell, Devour the Heavens and Transform the Earth!"
Boom!
At this moment, the heavens and earth suddenly darkened. It was as if even the clouds in the sky had turned blood-red. An earth-shattering blood rain fell from the sky, enveloping the entire world.
Mu Chen stabilized his figure as he slightly knitted his brows.
That's because he sensed an unusual Spiritual Energy fluctuation in this world. Clearly, Cao Feng was starting to unleash his true killing move.
"It should be about time."
Mu Chen lowered his head and muttered to himself. The palm within his sleeve.
The palm in his sleeve quietly formed the last seal.
Buzz!
The space around Mu Chen suddenly turned blood-red as countless blood shadows seeped out from the space like vines. In just a few breaths' time, they had condensed around him.
As the blood shadows coiled around him, an incomparably huge blood bell appeared out of nowhere and enveloped Mu Chen. Buzz!
Buzz!
The blood bell stood in the sky. On the surface of the blood bell, there seemed to be innumerable sinister faces. Sharp whistling noises constantly resounded in the sky, causing a stinging pain in the head, as if it was about to explode.
When the blood bell appeared and enveloped Mu Chen, the faces of countless people in this region changed as they inwardly shook their heads. Cao Feng's killing move was something that even a Second Grade Sovereign would be in a miserable state if he was trapped in it.
This time, Mu Chen's chances of survival were slim.
In the direction of the Blood Hawk Hall, a smear of a faint smile appeared on the Blood Hawk King's dark face. His gaze was as cold as a venomous snake, causing others to shudder.
This time, let's see if the Jiu You Palace still has any face left.
"Go to hell!"
Up in the sky, Cao Feng coldly smiled as killing intent surged. Shortly after, his seals changed. The blood bell suddenly trembled as a blood light burst out. As long as he detonated it, then Mu Chen, who was trapped within it, would definitely die!
"Demonic Blood Bell, explode!"
Boom!
The massive blood bell finally exploded. In that instant when it exploded, an endless sea of blood swept out as the stench of blood filled the heavens and earth.
Signs of shattering appeared in that region of space as spatial cracks rapidly extended.
Countless gazes were directed over.
Tang Bing and Tang Rou's faces were slightly pale as their figures lightly trembled. The faces of the Jiu You Troop were also pale as their expressions dimmed.
Only the Jiu You Palace remained calm.
The sea of blood filled the heavens and earth. Suddenly, endless light shot out from the sea of blood. In the path of the light, the sea of blood was instantly evaporated. In just a few breaths' time, the sea of blood that filled the heavens and earth had completely disappeared.
Cao Feng's face abruptly changed as he abruptly raised his head.
Many experts in this region had also sensed it as they looked at the distant sky with shock in their eyes. Shortly after, countless people narrowed their eyes.
In this region, there was an incomparably huge light figure that quietly stood. Behind the head of the light figure, there was a blazing sun that floated, emitting endless light. The surging flames of light swept out, causing the Spiritual Energy in this region to boil and burn.
A heart-palpitating Spiritual Energy pressure enveloped out.
Up in the sky, the three Emperors, who had been paying attention to the battle, abruptly narrowed their eyes as astonishment surged in their eyes.
