The dark-golden pillar stood between the heavens and earth, as if it had pierced through the thick layers of clouds. Under the shine of the dark-golden pillar, it was as if the entire Dragon-Phoenix Stage had become dazzling at this moment.
, ybdu,
Everyone was startled as they looked at the dark golden light pillar that stood out from the rest. The light shone on their faces, causing their expressions to change at this moment.
They didn't know why Mu Chen's probe would end up with such a result. What did this mean?
This meant that the Blood Essence of the Dragon and Phoenix within Mu Chen's body was actually formidable to the extent that none of them could compare to it?
From the previous probing, Fang Yi and the Netherworld Prince had basically cultivated the 'True Dragon Body'. This was already rather shocking, but who could have expected that the result of Mu Chen's probing would be even more terrifying …
How could the Blood Essence of the Dragon and Phoenix in this guy's body be so dense?
How on earth did he obtain so much dragon and phoenix blood essence?
Not only were the experts in this region shocked, but even the experts on the Dragon-Phoenix Stage were exchanging looks with disbelief.
Fang Yi and the Netherworld Prince slightly knitted their brows as they looked at Mu Chen, who was in the pillar of light. Their gazes flickered as they faintly intertwined their gazes before shifting away.
Su Biyue, Hong Yu, Ding Xuan and the rest also had grave expressions on their faces. They had also sensed the pressure radiating from Mu Chen.
Liu Yan's expression had never been good from the beginning to the end. His expression was gloomy, and the killing intent in the depths of his eyes grew stronger and stronger.
The dark golden pillar of light lasted for a long time under the watchful eyes of countless people.
Only then did it gradually weaken until it completely disappeared from Mu Chen's body.
Mu Chen slowly opened his eyes and glanced at the quiet Dragon-Phoenix Stage.
With a slight frown, the Spiritual Energy in his body quietly circulated.
The sudden exposure of the Dragon and Phoenix Essence Blood in his body had clearly exceeded his expectations. If it was possible, Mu Chen wasn't willing to expose it, because it would easily make him a target for everyone.
Because if he did that, he would become the person with the highest chance of obtaining the inheritance of the dragon and phoenix.
And in this case …
It was inevitable that it would attract a lot of jealousy and hatred. He could see this from the faintly discernible vigilant gazes.
Previously, most of these gazes were directed at Fang Yi and the Netherworld Prince.
Fortunately, he had joined forces with Cai Xiao, so the other experts didn't dare to make any moves.
Many rays of light dissipated.
On the Dragon-Phoenix Arena.
Silence reigned once again. The eyes of many experts flickered, but they did not dare to make any sudden movements.
Mu Chen raised his head and looked at the layers of stone platforms formed by the phoenix wings. Clearly, the inheritance of the Dragon-Phoenix Stage should be located at the peak, and anyone who wanted to obtain the inheritance would have to ascend to the peak.
Whoever reached the top first would most likely be the first to obtain the inheritance.
But right now, there didn't seem to be anyone who dared to break this stalemate.
In case they attracted the enmity of others.
But Mu Chen knew that this stalemate wouldn't last for long.
The one who broke this stalemate was Fang Yi, who was ranked first on the Dragon-Phoenix Record. He swept a glance at Mu Chen and Cai Xiao, then faintly smiled. "Since no one wants to make a move first, then let me be the one to take the lead."
He was courageous, so he clearly didn't care if others dared to make a move against him. Immediately, he stomped his feet and his figure soared into the sky, leaving afterimages in the air.
Boom!
At the same time when Fang Yi made his move, the Netherworld Prince's figure had also turned into a dark light as he streaked across the horizon like a bolt of lightning, swiftly leaving the layers of stone platforms behind him.
Boom!
Boom!
The moment the two of them made their move, the silence on the Dragon-Phoenix Stage was instantly shattered. The Spiritual Energy on every expert swept out like a storm, causing the stone platforms to tremble as numerous figures soared into the sky.
Mu Chen and Cai Xiao exchanged a glance, before turning into streaks of light and flew out as well.
In this region, countless gazes were looking at the streaks of light that soared into the sky as their hearts abruptly boiled. That's because they knew that the battle on the Dragon-Phoenix Stage had finally unfolded at this moment.
Except that they had no idea who would be the one to ascend to the peak of the Dragon-Phoenix Stage. But regardless of the outcome, the Dragon-Phoenix Record of the Northern Region would definitely be in an uproar.
Rustle!
Mu Chen executed his speed to the limits as he turned into a streak of light and passed through the layers of stone platforms. Raising his head, he looked up as his voice, which was wrapped in Spiritual Energy, was transmitted into Cai Xiao's ears, "The higher we go, the lesser the number of Dragon-Phoenix Stages will be. The Dragon-Phoenix Stages are a necessary path to ascend to the peak, so we will have to occupy a Dragon-Phoenix Stage each."
From the information that Mu Chen had obtained, although the number of Dragon-Phoenix Stages at the lowest level was sufficient to accommodate everyone, so they could easily ascend without a battle, the closer they were to the peak of the Dragon-Phoenix Stage, the number of Dragon-Phoenix Stages would decrease. At that time, there would be a situation where there were more people than there were stages. Therefore, the most intense battle would erupt.
Hearing his words, Cai Xiao gently nodded her head. "Then, you be careful at that time."
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Nearly a hundred streaks of light soared into the horizon like comets, constantly passing through the Dragon-Phoenix Stages that seemed to be forged from gold. It was a rather spectacular scene, but everyone in this region had gradually clenched their fists. That's because they had started to sense violent Spiritual Energy surging around those streaks of light.
"The number of Dragon-Phoenix Stages has decreased!"
Someone suddenly exclaimed as countless people directed their gazes over. Sure enough, they saw that in the distant nine heavens, there were many Dragon-Phoenix Stages. At this moment, there was a drastic decrease in the number of Dragon-Phoenix Stages. Roughly looking at it, it was clearly insufficient for everyone to ascend the stages.
Boom!
The nearly hundred streaks of light that soared up had started to split apart at this moment. The figures that were at the front had bolted out and occupied the Dragon-Phoenix Stages.
However, none of the geniuses that could make it here were easy to deal with.
Therefore, it was clearly impossible for them to follow the rule of first come, first served. Therefore, there were people with ferocious lights flickering in their eyes.
They had charged towards the occupied Dragon-Phoenix Stages, before violent Spiritual Energy soared into the sky.
Boom!
Boom!
Violent Spiritual Energy swept out on the Dragon-Phoenix Stages. Practically in an instant, the somewhat harmonious atmosphere had completely disappeared.
Replacing it was killing intent that soared into the sky.
Mu Chen and Cai Xiao's speed wasn't slow, so they had also occupied a Dragon-Phoenix Stage at the beginning.
Both of them had already occupied a Dragon-Phoenix Stage.
However, just when Mu Chen had just stepped onto the stage, a violent Spiritual Energy fluctuation swept over from his back. At the same time, a roar rang out, "Get lost!"
Mu Chen maintained a calm expression.
On the surface of his skin.
Vaguely, there was a golden light circulating, as if it had formed into a layer of dense golden dragon scales, before he threw a palm out.
Boom!
The palm and fist violently clashed together, causing a visible shock wave to sweep out. However, Mu Chen's figure did not move, while the figure behind him took a few steps back.
Mu Chen raised his head and saw a black-robed man looking at him with an eerie expression.
Mu Chen had never seen this person before, but judging from the Spiritual Energy fluctuations around him, he should be a Fourth Grade Sovereign.
That person's strength had also reached Fourth Grade Sovereign Realm. However, compared to Liu Yan, he was still lacking by a large margin.
"I am Chen Fan of the Ghostly Shadow Sect, I hope that you can let me pass."
The black-robed man's gaze was a little cold as he looked at Mu Chen. His gaze was filled with ferocity. Although he knew that Mu Chen wasn't simple, it wasn't a reason for him to retreat. Furthermore, Mu Chen and Cai Xiao had separated, so he intended to make use of this opportunity to pass through Mu Chen.
However, Mu Chen only indifferently looked at him with his black pupils, before turning around and leaving.
"Courting death!"
When Chen Fan saw this, he laughed out of anger. Although Mu Chen wasn't simple, did he think that he was Fang Yi?
He actually dared to disregard him!
Boom!
Boundless Spiritual Energy burst out from his body and a massive black figure was formed. That black figure was shrouded in a baleful aura, like an asura. Chen Fan did not have any intention of probing and had summoned his Sovereign Celestial Body the moment he made his move.
"Ghostly Shadow Celestial Body - Myriad Shadow Demon!"
Red light surfaced within the eyes of the gigantic black figure. Soon after, it threw a palm forward. Black figures that blotted out the sky and covered the land surged under its palm. They appeared just like ghosts as ear-piercing screeches erupted. The frightening fluctuations directly shook the space until it became distorted.
"That's Chen Fan of the Ghostly Shadow Sect, he's looking for Mu Chen!"
"That Chen Fan is a ruthless figure. The Ghostly Shadow Celestial Body is said to be extremely vicious. Every time it kills someone, it would devour their Spirit and turn it into Ghost Energy!"
Clearly, there were many experts paying attention to Mu Chen. Therefore, when the Spiritual Energy shock wave burst out from his stone platform, it immediately attracted many astonished gazes.
Naturally, they weren't the only ones paying attention to Mu Chen's stone platform. There were some figures on other stone platforms that had also directed their gazes over. Although the Spiritual Energy on the other stone platforms was violent, no one dared to casually step onto their stone platforms.
Those people were all elites on the Dragon-Phoenix Record, like Fang Yi, the Netherworld Prince, Su Biyue, Hong Yu and many others.
Their gazes were directed at the stone platform that Mu Chen was on. Clearly, they wanted to see if this person, who was found to have the densest Blood Essences of the True Dragon and Phoenix in his body, possessed the corresponding ability.
Hiss!
Screeches of ghosts filled the sky as the black palm enveloped down towards Mu Chen under countless gazes.
Mu Chen's footsteps stabilised in the shadows as he raised his head and looked at the black palm that had enveloped the horizon without any expression on his face. Shortly after, he abruptly clenched his fist.
A dazzling golden light burst out from his body. In that instant, it was as if a blazing sun had risen. The dazzling golden light had caused countless people to narrow their eyes.
But in that instant, there were still those with keen eyesight that saw a pair of golden phoenix wings unfolding behind Mu Chen. As the phoenix wings swept out, it was like the sharpest light that streaked across the horizon.
The dazzling golden light had disappeared in an instant.
Mu Chen's body had returned to normal. He did not turn his head back as he strode forth. Above him, the black palm and the Ghostly Shadow Celestial Body stood still as a fine golden light stretched out from the palm and extended to the head of the Ghostly Shadow Celestial Body …
Boom!
A golden light burst out from the light as the Ghostly Shadow Celestial Body exploded into sparkles of light. Within it, a pathetic figure flew out with a mouthful of blood spewing from his mouth. In the end, he powerlessly fell from the sky, shattering a mountain into ruins …
Countless gazes were stunned at this scene. A brief moment later, sounds of people inhaling chilled air resounded as they looked at the slender figure that was slowly walking up the stone platform with shock in their eyes.
It was only a single move, but he had already defeated a Fourth Grade Sovereign expert!
Compared to the time when he fought with Liu Yan, Mu Chen seemed to have become even stronger!
