Rustle!
A huge Battle Will tornado violently revolved around Mu Chen as the surging Battle Will filled the heavens and earth, causing countless people's expressions to turn solemn. That's because everyone could sense that the Battle Will unleashed by the Jiu You Troop had actually surpassed the Blood Hawk Troop, who outnumbered them!
"How is this possible?!"
Someone couldn't help exclaiming. The Jiu You Troop only had a thousand people, while the Blood Hawk Troop had already reached five thousand. This was a complete suppression in terms of numbers. Furthermore, the strength of the Blood Hawk Troop wasn't any weaker than the Jiu You Troop.
They truly couldn't understand where the powerful Battle Will of the Jiu You Troop came from.
On the other hand, the Asura King, the Mountain Splitting King and the other various Kings had their brows slightly furrowed as they stared at the silhouette in the storm with a slightly grave expression.
"Looks like I've underestimated him."
The Asura King slowly said to Xu Qing, "Given his understanding and control of Battle Will, I feel that he might have the talent to become a Battle Formation Master."
"Battle Formation Master?"
The corner of Xu Qing's eyes couldn't help twitching. He was also a Commander that commanded an army, so he naturally knew how rare and powerful a Battle Formation Master was. It was also his dream. However, his talent in Spiritual Arrays wasn't high, so it was even more impossible for him to become a Battle Formation Master.
"But nowadays, Battle Formation Masters are even rarer than Spiritual Array Masters. Without anyone to guide him, I'm afraid that it will be hard for him to have high attainments in Battle Formations."
The Asura King spoke with slight pity. If a Battle Formation Master could appear in their Great Heaven Domain, then the increase in their strength would undoubtedly be shocking.
"If an ordinary Commander were to command an army, they would at most be able to utilise 10% to 20% of the power of Battle Will. However, with Mu Chen's comprehension of Battle Will, he can bring out the full power of Battle Will."
The Asura King sighed, "So it looks like there's already an outcome to this bet … No wonder the Jiu You Troop dared to accept the Blood Hawk Hall's bet.
So it turns out that you have something to rely on. This time, the Blood Hawk Hall really went for wool and came home shorn. "
Xu Qing was somewhat speechless as he raised his head and saw that the Battle Will storm in the sky was growing stronger.
As it wreaked havoc, the battlefield was constantly torn apart.
"Acting all mysterious!"
Wu Tian's expression was so dark that it was frightening. A sliver of fear flashed across the depths of his eyes. That's because the strength that Mu Chen had displayed had truly caused him to feel fear. It seemed that no matter what technique he used, he would not be able to surpass or suppress Mu Chen.
Under that seemingly young face.
It was as if he had a bottomless heart.
However, no matter what emotions he had, Wu Tian knew that he couldn't retreat now. If he fought to the death, there might still be a way out.
But if he retreated and gave up, he would probably be digging his own grave.
"I don't believe that your strength as a first grade Supreme Martial Artist can really go against the heavens!"
Wu Tian clenched his teeth as a vicious light crazily flickered within his scarlet eyes. Without any hesitation, he abruptly swung his hand down.
The blood-stained Blood Demon Divine Spear that hovered in the sky abruptly stabbed down.
Rustle!
The speed of the Blood Demon Divine Spear was astonishingly fast. As the stench of blood surged, it had directly torn space apart and appeared above the Battle Will storm in a flash.
The frightening gale caused cracks to appear in the surrounding space.
This was an attack that gathered the strongest power of the Blood Hawk Troop. It was indeed extremely powerful. Even a Third Grade Sovereign expert might not be able to endure such an attack.
However.
Mu Chen's expression remained calm as he opened his eyes. His black pupils were like the starry sky, they were abnormally deep, making it impossible for others to see through them.
He formed seals with both of his hands and gently joined them together.
Buzz!
Buzz! The massive Battle Will storm around him violently distorted at this moment. The lustre also grew darker. Looking from afar, it was as if a black dragon was soaring between the heavens and earth.
"Jiu You's Plume!"
Mu Chen waved his hand and a massive pitch-black plume slowly rose from the peak of the Battle Will storm. The plume was in the shape of a sword, looking like a sword of plume feathers. The tip of the sword was filled with fine sawteeth and the pitch-black cold lustre looked as if it could pierce through space.
Mu Chen's gaze was calm as he pointed his slender fingers out.
Buzz!
The pitch-black plume feather sword rapidly vibrated and with a final tremble, it had disappeared. When it reappeared, it was already beneath the Blood Demon Divine Spear as the tip of the sword faced it head-on.
The tip of the spear and the tip of the sword were like needles as they heavily clashed together.
Boom!
In that instant, a clear metallic sound exploded in the sky as two terrifying Battle Wills violently roared. One pitch-black and one blood-red, each occupying half of the sky.
"Break!"
Wu Tian's face was ferocious as his roar resounded across the sky. Waves of scarlet Battle Will frantically surged over. Clearly, he was intending to give it his all.
Mu Chen's pitch-black pupils indifferently glanced at Wu Tian as he gently waved his fingers down. "Then break!"
A smear of dark light abruptly blossomed from the tip of the pitch-black plume feather sword.
Rustle!
When the dim light blossomed and disappeared, it was only an instant. The feather sword had already appeared behind the Blood Demon Divine Spear. A tiny crack slowly spread out from the body of the Blood Demon Divine Spear …
Crack!
When the crack spread to the limit, the Blood Demon Divine Spear was quietly split into two and powerlessly fell from the sky. At the same time, it exploded into sparkles of light that filled the sky.
Puff!
When the Blood Demon Divine Spear was split into two, Wu Tian's face instantly turned pale. The Blood Hawk Troop below also suffered heavy injuries with traces of blood on the corner of their mouths.
In the sky, the Blood Hawk Battle Will that was wreaking havoc was swiftly retreating. In just a few breaths' time, the blood-red Battle Will that occupied half of the sky had completely retreated.
In this battle between the Jiu You Troop and the Blood Hawk Troop, the Blood Hawk Troop that originally held the absolute advantage had actually suffered a crushing defeat!
Rustle!
When this scene appeared, an earth-shattering commotion rang out in the sky outside the battlefield. Countless experts had grave expressions. Although they did not speak, they were still a little shaken in their hearts.
That's because this outcome made it a little hard for them to calm down. Not only did the Blood Hawk Troop have the advantage in numbers, their commander, Wu Tian, had even reached the pinnacle of Second Grade Sovereign Realm.
So on the surface, no matter which aspect it was, the Jiu You Troop was worrying. But the outcome right now …
It made everyone's eyes pop out.
The gazes that filled the sky.
All of them couldn't help gathering towards Mu Chen. Because anyone could tell that it was because of his existence that the Jiu You Troop could win this battle.
The new Commander of the Jiu You Palace was actually so powerful.
At this moment, when the experts of the Great Havenlaw Domain looked at Mu Chen, they retracted the arrogance that they had in the past. Although this young man's strength was only at First Grade Sovereign,
Although this young man's strength was only at First Grade Sovereign on the surface, when he executed his true means, probably no one in the Great Heaven Domain could confront him, aside from some extremely experienced experts and the Nine Kings.
They could be counted with one's fingers.
Compared to Cao Feng, the new Commander that the Jiu You Palace had brought back was many times stronger.
An uproar of exclamations rang out as some gazes secretly swept towards the Blood Hawk King, only to realise that the latter's face was so dark that it looked like water was about to drip out.
In the battlefield, the battle intent around Mu Chen had also slowly retreated, while the Jiu You Troop below looked at his silhouette with worship and blazing flames in their eyes.
Their hearts were filled with excitement at this moment. All these years, their Jiu You Troop's reputation in the Great Heaven Domain wasn't high. Everyone would speak in disdain when they mentioned them. But today …
Relying on Mu Chen's leadership, they were finally able to hold their heads up high for once.
In the future, there wouldn't be anyone in the Great Heaven Domain that would ridicule their Jiu You Troop!
"Haha, thanks for letting me win. Thanks for the gift from the Blood Hawk Hall."
Up in the sky, Mu Chen looked at Wu Tian, whose face was pale, and lightly smiled as he cupped his fists.
When Wu Tian, who had his blood rolling in his body, heard Mu Chen's words, he couldn't hold back the rage and grievance in his heart. Immediately, a mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth. His venomous gaze looked as if he wanted to tear Mu Chen into pieces.
However, Mu Chen paid no attention to him as he turned his head to look at the Blood Hawk King, whose face was pale, and smiled. "Lord Blood Hawk King, I wonder when my Jiu You Palace will be able to take over those hundred cities?"
The Blood Hawk King's face slightly twitched as he coldly looked at Mu Chen. "Since when did a little Commander dare to speak to this King in this manner?"
"Mhm?!"
When his cold voice landed, a terrifying Spiritual Energy pressure enveloped towards Mu Chen.
Boom!
However, just as he released his Spiritual Energy pressure, dozens of Spiritual Energy beams burning with purple flames blasted towards the vital points on his body like bolts of lightning.
Blood Hawk King stomped his feet as a blood-red Spiritual Energy swept out, forming a light barrier that protected his body.
Boom!
The Spiritual Energy beams heavily slammed against the light barrier, causing Spiritual Energy fluctuations to wreak havoc as strands of purple flames stuck onto it. In an instant, the light barrier started to melt at an astonishing speed.
Seeing this, the Blood Hawk King's face slightly changed as he hastily took a few steps back. The Spiritual Energy in his body exploded, dissipating the purple flames. Shortly after, his face was dark as he looked at Jiu You, who wasn't far away.
"Blood Hawk King, you're getting more and more shameless."
A ridiculing smile appeared on Jiu You's cold and elegant face as she sneered, "If you're still unconvinced, why don't we give it a try?"
"You think I'm afraid of you?!" Blood Hawk King coldly said.
"Enough!"
However, just as the two of them were about to clash, a roar suddenly rang out in the sky and the Sky Vulture Emperor's figure slowly appeared once again.
When everyone in this region saw this, they immediately bowed down.
"Since you've lost the bet, then you naturally have to acknowledge it. Otherwise, what rules are there to speak of?" The Sky Vulture Emperor said as he cast a glance at the Blood Hawk King.
The Blood Hawk King clenched his teeth and could only nod his head.
"Alright, since the bet has come to an end, Nine Kings, follow me. The Expedition War of my Great Heaven Domain is about to begin." The Sky Vulture Emperor waved his hand.
Hearing his words, many experts felt a chill in their hearts. Their Great Heaven Domain was finally going to start their expedition?
