When Mu Chen returned to the Jiu You Troop, a torrential ocean of Battle Will surged. The Battle Will was so condensed and tenacious that even the Mountain Splitting King and the rest, who were a distance away, had cast a sidelong glance at it. They had vaguely sensed something, but they found it a little hard to believe.
However, Mu Chen wasn't bothered about that. He stood in the sky with the Jiu You Troop like an ocean of ink whistling beneath his feet. He closed his eyes and his mind had integrated into the boundless Battle Will. It was as if there was an endless roar of Battle Will resounding in his heart, causing the blood in his body to boil.
Allowing Mu Chen to control the Jiu You Battle Will once again was akin to releasing a tiger back into the mountains. He could easily sense that he, who was in the ocean of Battle Will, could unleash a terrifying power that could shatter the heavens and earth with a wave of his hand.
If he could use this power when he fought with Fang Yi, the latter's Primordial Starlight Celestial Body would have been completely destroyed by him.
That was the power of Battle Will.
Although it wasn't a power that originated from him, and there were many restrictions on it, every expert had to admit that it was also an extremely threatening power.
In ancient times, the fame of those pinnacle Battle Formation Masters could be comparable to pinnacle powerhouses in this world. Although their strength would be greatly reduced if they were separated from their troops, when a pinnacle Battle Formation Master possessed an elite troop, even a pinnacle Heavenly Sovereign Realm powerhouse wouldn't dare to underestimate them.
Even a pinnacle Heavenly Sovereign Realm powerhouse wouldn't dare to underestimate them.
"Previously, both sides were heavily injured from our confrontation … so why don't we give it a try now?"
Mu Chen's black pupils sharply looked into the distance. The Skycroc Troop had already formed into a defensive formation and was swiftly retreating.
Fang Yi was also amongst them. Even if they were separated by so many people, Mu Chen could still sense the latter's bone-chilling gaze.
Screech!
Mu Chen's palm fell without any hesitation. With a command of his mind, the black sea of Jiu You Battle Will swept out. A clear and resonant cry resounded across the heavens and earth. Boundless Battle Will surged.
It turned into a massive Jiu You Sparrow with complicated runes engraved all over the Jiu You Sparrow's body.
The powerful Battle Will had actually caused ripples to form in this space.
"Spirit of Battle Will?!"
When the Battle Will Spirit appeared, the Mountain Splitting King and the rest finally sensed it and narrowed their eyes.
He looked in the direction of Mu Chen with shock in his eyes.
"What a good King Mu.
To be able to control battle intent to such a degree at such a young age. "
The Mountain Splitting King solemnly said. He had many experts under him, with countless outstanding Commanders. However, none of them could reach the level of Mu Chen to refine the Spirit of Battle Will.
Not far behind the Mountain Splitting King, Zhou Yue, who was once one of the four Great Domain Lords of the Great Heaven Domain, also wore a complicated expression as he looked at the Spirit of Battle Will above the Jiu You Troop.
In the end, he could only sigh in admiration at Mu Chen's move.
It had simply shocked him to the point that he didn't even have the temper to provoke Mu Chen...
Rustle!
When the Battle Will Spirit appeared, it had slashed its wings down with a rustle under countless gazes. That smear of light was like an extremely sharp blade. In a single sweep, it had already torn through the sky and appeared above the Skycroc Troop, slashing down without any mercy.
As a smear of light streaked across, space seemed to have been split into two.
Xu Ba stood within the Skycroc Troop. He looked at the flash of light that was whistling down and a chill rose on his skin. Immediately, a roar rang out from his throat.
"Skycroc Battle Will!"
Boom!
Scarlet Battle Will soared into the sky from the Skycroc Troop. In the end, it turned into streaks of Battle Will that traversed the sky and charged towards the smear of light in an attempt to stop it.
Poof!
Poof!
However, it was futile in the end. As the smear of light streaked across, the streaks of Battle Will were shattered. The destructive momentum made the Commanders of the Skycroc Troop feel a chill in their hearts.
When the smear of light that could tear through space descended, ear-piercing noises resounded. It was as if a blade had pierced into the body. Silhouettes of the Skycroc Troop started to spurt blood as they fell. Evidently, they were affected by the attack.
In just a single exchange, the Skycroc Troop had lost hundreds of elite warriors.
Xu Ba's face violently twitched, looking extremely sinister. Standing beside him, Fang Yi's face had also turned ashen. He never expected that Mu Chen would be so powerful after taking control of the Jiu You Troop.
"Retreat!"
Xu Ba roared. He had already sensed that the Blood Hawk Troop, which was initially trapped in the valley, was about to charge out and form an encirclement with the Jiu You Troop. At that time, they would definitely have to pay a greater price if they were encircled.
Right now, the Fire Wolf Lord and Sky Bear Lord were being chased by the Mountain Splitting King's three troops, so it was impossible for them to send any troops to assist them. Therefore, they could only rely on themselves to retreat.
Mu Chen indifferently looked at the retreating Skycroc Troop. Clearly, he did not intend to let go of this opportunity to beat them down. With a wave of his hand, the Nine Nether Troop swept out like a huge black cloud. Up in the sky, the Spirit of Battle Will flapped its massive wings and boundless Battle Will surged, turning into countless black feathers of Battle Will that shot out like arrows in every direction.
In the sky, a massive troop was swiftly retreating with another troop chasing after them. Every single time the two Battle Wills clashed, it would cause a terrifying spatial fluctuation and the ground below would be torn apart …
Under the clash of Battle Wills, both sides had suffered losses. But clearly, the Skycroc Troop, who had no heart to continue fighting, had suffered greater losses. Even if they had the advantage in numbers, the Nine Nether Troop had made use of the Spirit of Battle Will to make up for the difference in numbers.
Mu Chen's silhouette appeared on the head of the Battle Will Spirit as he squinted his eyes and looked at the swiftly retreating Skycroc Troop, or Fang Yi's silhouette. Shortly after, he gently tapped his finger in the sky.
Buzz!
The black feathers of Battle Will that shot out in every direction suddenly changed direction and dozens of black feathers swiftly dodged the obstruction of the Sky Splitting Crocodile's Battle Will, before they found Fang Yi's silhouette and shot over.
Evidently, Mu Chen intended to take this opportunity to get rid of his enemy, Fang Yi.
At this moment, Fang Yi's face changed when he saw the black Battle Will feather that was flying in his direction. He could sense the massive power on the black Battle Will feather.
It was the power of Battle Will that gathered the entire Jiu You Troop.
Right now, Mu Chen was no longer the Mu Chen from before!
Boom!
But despite knowing this, Fang Yi wasn't someone that would wait for death. Immediately, he let out a low roar and the Spiritual Energy that he had previously recovered burst out without any restraint. A massive silhouette formed around him, it was the Primordial Starlight Celestial Body once again.
Looking at the Primordial Starlight Celestial Body, a cold arc rose on the corner of his lips. His finger gently swiped down and dozens of black feathers pierced through space and ruthlessly slammed against the Primordial Starlight Celestial Body.
Boom!
A violent Spiritual Energy fluctuation swept out and the Primordial Starlight Celestial Body that had heavily injured Mu Chen had collapsed. Fang Yi's silhouette flew out in a pathetic manner with a few mouthfuls of blood spewing from his mouth and his face was as pale as paper.
It was just a single contact and Fang Yi had suffered a crushing defeat!
Rustle.
In the distance, those that were still watching this chaotic scene were all dumbfounded. Who could have imagined that Mu Chen, who had exerted so much effort to heavily injure Fang Yi, would be so terrifying at this moment. He had only used a single move to defeat Fang Yi.
Although this was because Mu Chen wasn't alone at this moment and had gathered the entire Jiu You Troop's power, no one would ridiculously think that it was an external force. That's because this was a battlefield, and only the outcome mattered, not the process …
Only a fool would believe that it was absolute fairness.
Mu Chen indifferently looked at the defeated Fang Yi. At this moment, the latter no longer had the sharpness that he had when they fought one on one. That's because the two of them weren't on the same level anymore.
Whoosh!
Mu Chen waved his hand and a dozen black feathers shot out from the boundless black feathers that enveloped the entire Skycroc Troop, heading towards Fang Yi. Clearly, he was intending to beat up a dog that had fallen into the water.
Fang Yi had also sensed Mu Chen's dense killing intent in the first moment and his face was pale as he hastily retreated. He had already understood that Mu Chen, who had controlled the Jiu You Troop's Battle Will, wasn't someone that he could confront by himself.
But at this moment, Mu Chen clearly wasn't going to give him an opportunity. The black feathers were extremely sharp and were covered in the boundless Jiu You Troop's Battle Will. They swiftly pierced through space and arrived above Fang Yi in a few breaths' time before descending.
Fang Yi's path of retreat had been sealed and he had nowhere to run.
Boom!
But just when the black feathers were about to hit Fang Yi's body, Xu Ba's silhouette had swiftly appeared before the latter and unleashed a roar with boundless Spiritual Energy bursting out like a storm.
Boom!
When the black feathers of Battle Will came in contact with the violent Spiritual Energy, they instantly crumbled.
"You dare to kill someone in front of me? You're too arrogant, you brat!"
Xu Ba ferociously looked at Mu Chen before barking at the Commanders of the Skycroc Troop, "You guys retreat, I'll obstruct this arrogant brat!"
"So what if you're a Sixth Grade Sovereign?
Since you want to stand out, then I'll use you as a sacrifice to the flag of my Jiu You Troop! "
But facing Xu Ba's barking, Mu Chen had indifferently smiled and formed seals with a single hand. Instantly, the Spirit of Battle Will let out a long roar and a terrifying Battle Will swept out in the heavens and earth.
With a swoosh, the black feathers that filled the sky changed direction and locked onto Xu Ba. Then, they shot toward him from all directions. The black feathers were filled with dense killing intent.
Everyone in this region sucked in a cold breath. Mu Chen was too arrogant. He actually intended to encircle a Sixth Grade Sovereign by himself!
