"Jiu You Palace, Mu Chen."
When Mandala's final words resounded, the entire Greatlaw Plaza seemed to have stopped for a brief moment. Thereafter, countless astonished gazes were directed in the direction of Mu Chen and an uproar resounded.
"Mu Chen?
The new Commander of Jiu You Palace? "
"He can actually participate in the King's Ceremony … Isn't this a little too hasty?
He has only been in our Great Heaven Domain for less than a year. "
"Although his performance was outstanding in the Dragon-Phoenix Haven, the King's Ceremony is much more difficult than the Dragon-Phoenix Haven. Furthermore, it's said that the reason why Mu Chen could obtain the champion in the Dragon-Phoenix Haven was because of the assistance of Yan Emperor's daughter."
"It's said that there's a reason for that …"
"…"
Whispers resounded, filled with doubts and unconcealable jealousy. After all, Mu Chen had only been in the Great Heaven Domain for a short period of time. However, the speed of his rise was too swift. Ordinary people would need to struggle for years in the Great Heaven Domain, but he had achieved it in less than a year.
Such a difference would easily cause many people to feel unbalanced in their hearts. Thus, it was unavoidable for them to nitpick.
The black-robed Qiu Taiyin had also cast a glance at Mu Chen with a faint smile. However, he did not reveal any emotions. That's because, in his eyes, only Qin Zhong could pose a slight threat to him. As for Mu Chen, his talent might be pretty good, but he was still too young and couldn't be placed in Qiu Taiyin's eyes.
This time, he was determined to obtain the tenth King's Ceremony!
Mu Chen wasn't bothered by the uproar.
However, he didn't bother about it. His eyes were slightly closed and his expression was calm.
Behind him, Tang Bing, Tang Rou, and the people from Jiu You Palace were indignant, but under Jiu You's restraint, they did not refute.
This was because any rebuttal at this time would be laughable and powerless. Everything had to be decided by the facts.
On the golden throne, Mandala's small face was as calm as an ancient well. She looked at the uproar in the square and gently pressed her hand down.
Thus, the voices immediately quietened down.
In the Great Havenlaw Domain, she was the one and only ruler, and any of her words would be obeyed.
These were unchangeable decrees.
"Since everyone is here, let the King's Ceremony officially begin." She waved her hand and said in a dignified voice.
Even the heavens and earth seemed to tremble at this moment.
Dong!
The loud sound of the bell resounded through the world once more.
Countless experts' eyes blazed with passion. They knew that the King's Naming Battle would be exceptionally intense.
Whoosh!
Under the countless gazes, Qiu Taiyin faintly smiled. His figure moved and appeared on the King's Ceremony Stage with one hand behind his back.
His gaze ignored Mu Chen and looked at Qin Zhong.
He smiled. "Brother Qin Zhong, I hope that you can enlighten me."
Qin Zhong cast a glance at Mu Chen. The latter wore a smile on his youthful face. Shortly after, the latter tapped his feet and his figure mysteriously appeared on the King's Ceremony Stage, facing Qiu Taiyin.
As the two of them faced each other, boundless Spiritual Energy swept out. A heavy pressure spread out on the King's Ceremony Stage, causing the faces of countless experts to gradually turn grave.
Qin Zhong's sharp gaze locked onto Qiu Taiyin as he slowly clenched his fists. The latter's reputation was getting stronger and stronger amongst the veterans of the Great Heaven Domain. The so-called number one beneath the King Stage wasn't just empty words.
The King's Naming Battle today wouldn't be easy.
Boom!
Boundless Spiritual Energy burst out from Qin Zhong's body like a storm. Shortly after, his gaze turned cold as he stomped his feet and soared into the horizon. Both of his palms flickered with a jade-coloured lustre, looking as if they were made of white jade with a powerful energy lingering around them.
"Jade Cauldron Hand!"
Qin Zhong roared as a jade cauldron rune vaguely appeared on his jade-white palm. Boundless Spiritual Energy formed into a palm as it whistled out. There was also a jade cauldron rune in the palm that was emitting a boundless power, as if it could suppress the three mountains and five peaks.
"Haha, I've long heard that Brother Qin Zhong's Jade Cauldron Divine Art is pretty formidable. Today, I'll have to witness it."
Seeing Qin Zhong's attack, Qiu Taiyin indifferently smiled. Shortly after, both of his palms twirled as black smoke surged out. Within the smoke, there was a cold Spiritual Energy that could freeze the air.
Whoosh!
The black smoke wriggled like it was alive as it turned into a black python that soared into the sky and clashed with the jade cauldron's palm.
Boom!
As the violent Spiritual Energy swept out, the shock wave even caused space to distort.
Qin Zhong's gaze flickered as he abruptly formed seals with both of his hands. A sparkling lustre soared into the sky from his body as his entire body turned into white jade.
"That's …" Mu Chen's gaze was a little astonished as he looked at Qin Zhong's body. He could sense that at this moment, Qin Zhong's physical body seemed to have become extremely powerful.
"That's the Jade Cauldron Divine Physique, a Body Refining Divine Art that Qin Zhong obtained from an ancient site. Back then, he relied on this to become the City Lord of Heaven Luo City." Jiu You explained.
Rustle!
As Jiu You and Mu Chen conversed, Qin Zhong, whose body had turned sparkling, suddenly disappeared. When he reappeared, he appeared behind Qiu Taiyin like a spectre. His sparkling fist brought along a terrifying power that could shatter mountains as it shot towards the latter's back at lightning speed.
Facing Qin Zhong's lightning-fast attack, Qiu Taiyin couldn't react in time and could only allow Qin Zhong's fist to strike him.
Poof.
Qin Zhong's fist pierced through Qiu Taiyin's chest. However, when it pierced through, Qin Zhong's face abruptly changed as he saw that Qiu Taiyin's body had turned into smoke.
Qin Zhong had a bad premonition in his heart as he immediately retracted his fist and retreated.
"Haha. Brother Qin Zhong, it's impolite not to reciprocate. Why don't you have a taste of my Mist Ghost Physique?"
A strange smile rose on the corner of Qiu Taiyin's lips as the smoke on his chest suddenly condensed and a terrifying chill froze Qin Zhong's arm.
Black ice swiftly spread up along Qin Zhong's arm, wanting to freeze his entire body.
The sinister chill invaded Qin Zhong's body as if it wanted to freeze the Spiritual Energy in his body.
This caused his face to drastically change. Shortly after, his gaze sank as the Spiritual Energy in his body burst out without any restraint.
Boom!
Boundless Spiritual Energy swept out, forming into a powerful Spiritual Energy pressure that instantly attracted countless exclamations. Everyone could sense how powerful Qin Zhong's Spiritual Energy was.
He had already surpassed the Fourth Grade Sovereign Realm and had a foot in the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm.
"Looks like Qin Zhong has improved over the years. If he's given a little more time, he'll definitely be able to make some progress.
If he's given more time, it's only a matter of time before he breaks through to the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm. "
Someone sighed. Qin Zhong had been stuck in the Fourth Grade Sovereign Realm for so many years and he had finally made some improvements.
Astonishment flashed across Mu Chen's eyes.
Qin Zhong did have some trump cards up his sleeves.
His strength was comparable to the Netherworld Prince, since the latter was also half-a-step into the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm.
Boom!
Spiritual Energy swept out on the King's Ceremony Stage as the black ice on Qin Zhong's arm shattered. His figure flew back and at the same time, his Spiritual Energy fluctuated, dispersing the chill that had invaded his body.
"So City Lord Qin Zhong is already half-a-foot in the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm.
Congratulations. "As the black smoke surged, Qiu Taiyin slowly turned around.
His lips that were as sharp as blades were slightly lifted.
Qin Zhong maintained a calm expression as boundless Spiritual Energy rippled around him like an ocean. Every single move he made contained a power that could shatter mountains.
His gaze was fixed on Qiu Taiyin. Although he was half-a-foot in the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm, for some reason, he still felt a faint pressure coming from the latter.
It looked like he had to give it his all.
Qin Zhong deeply inhaled a mouthful of air as he swiftly formed seals with his hands. In an instant, a dazzling jade light burst out and a colossal figure was formed.
That figure looked as if it was made of white jade, except that there was an ancient cauldron rune on its body. A powerful energy fluctuated between the heavens and earth, making others feel pressured.
"That's … the Jade Cauldron Celestial Body that Qin Zhong has cultivated!"
When the colossal figure appeared, a commotion rang out in this region. Clearly, they weren't unfamiliar with Qin Zhong's Sovereign Celestial Body.
Qin Zhong's figure appeared on the head of the colossal figure as he looked down at Qiu Taiyin.
"You've finally brought out the Jade Cauldron Celestial Body."
Qiu Taiyin also raised his head to look at the dazzling white jade figure with a smear of an indifferent smile on his face.
"Looks like I can't hold back if I want to defeat Brother Qin Zhong today."
Qiu Taiyin smiled as he waved his hand. Instantly, a black mist rolled out like a beacon and soared into the horizon. In the end, the beacon condensed and formed into a colossal black figure.
The black mist coiled around the colossal figure like a black dragon with a chilling aura that caused the temperature in this region to drop.
"That's the Great Yin Celestial Body that Qiu Taiyin has cultivated!" Someone exclaimed.
Mu Chen looked at the two colossal figures. Although the two Sovereign Celestial Bodies were ranked at the bottom of the 99 Rankings of Sovereign Celestial Bodies, both Qin Zhong and Qiu Taiyin had cultivated them to a high level.
"If they were to fight, it would be hard to determine the victor."
Under the blazing gazes, Qiu Taiyin appeared on the head of the Great Yin Celestial Body and looked at Qin Zhong's silhouette with a peculiar arc rising from the corner of his lips.
"Hard to determine the victor?
That's not necessarily the case … "
Qiu Taiyin slowly spread his hands out as the chill and sharpness in his eyes grew to the limit. Thereafter, a smoke-like black Spiritual Energy swept out from his body like a tornado.
The initially bright sun had swiftly turned dark as the smoke-like black Spiritual Energy covered the sun and a powerful Spiritual Energy pressure spread out between the heavens and earth.
Sensing the Spiritual Energy pressure, Qin Zhong's face drastically changed.
Mu Chen and Jiu You had also abruptly narrowed their eyes as they involuntarily inhaled a mouthful of air. That's because the Spiritual Energy pressure had already reached the level of a genuine Fifth Grade Sovereign!
Qiu Taiyin had actually completed his breakthrough and stepped into the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm!
