Wu!
A sharp and hurried buzzing sound resounded from the huge valley in a deafening manner. When the buzzing sound resounded, some ripples appeared in the vast army guarding outside the valley. Soon after, some figures swiftly shot out and landed in the valley. Evidently, they had received an order.
\
The expressions of Mu Chen, Jiu You, and the others who had just arrived also changed slightly. What exactly happened for such an urgent signal?
"Mountain Splitting King, you guys come in first."
As Mu Chen's complexions changed, a powerful voice echoed out from the mountain valley. This was the voice of the Asura King.
"Go!"
Mu Chen, Jiu You, the Mountain Splitting King and the rest did not dare to delay as they swiftly stationed their troops outside the valley, before turning into streaks of light and charged into the valley. When the troops outside the valley saw them, they had immediately retreated.
Xiu!
Mu Chen and the rest flew into the valley, appearing in the depths of the valley in a few breaths' time. There were many silhouettes on a towering stone platform in the depths of the valley, with the Asura King and the various Kings standing at the center.
However, at this moment, the atmosphere in the valley seemed to be a little tense. The faces of the various kings were a little gloomy.
Mu Chen and Jiu You glanced at each other. Then, they quickly landed and cupped their fists together towards the Asura King.
"You've finally arrived." The Asura King looked at Mu Chen and the others. His originally taut face relaxed a little.
"Asura King, what happened?" The Mountain Splitting King looked at the Asura King, who had the highest prestige amongst the various kings, and asked with a frown.
The Asura King's face darkened.
With a wave of his sleeve, a bronze mirror flew out from his sleeve. Then, it shot out rays of light that illuminated the sky.
In an instant, a glowing mirror was formed in the sky. At this moment, violent Spiritual Energy soared into the sky from the surface of the mirror. Boundless light figures covered the sky and covered the earth as they streaked across.
It seemed to be a confrontation between two huge groups. One of them was wearing armour that seemed to be made of ice.
A chilling aura spread across the land, causing the temperature to plummet. Amongst that group of people, there were a few of them.
Fluttering flags resembling snowflakes.
"It's Glacier King!"
When the Mountain Splitting King and the rest saw the snowflake symbol, their expressions froze. That's because that was the flag of the Glacier Palace, one of the various Kings in the Great Heaven Domain.
That was to say …
The army in front of them was under the command of the Glacier King.
"The one that intercepted the Glacier King is …" Mu Chen's gaze was fixed on the other side of the mirror. Black clouds were surging there, emitting a chilling aura, and the skull-like flag was the Netherworld Palace!
"It's the Netherworld Palace!" The complexion of Spirit Sword King and the others slightly changed. The Glacier King was unexpectedly intercepted by the people of the Netherworld Palace.
Mu Chen stared at the people of the Netherworld Palace and saw black clouds surging.
A figure slowly walked out. That figure was wearing a black robe.
His entire body was filled with a chilling aura.
He slightly raised his head, revealing a pair of narrow and cold eyes as he stared at the Glacier Hall's army. A ridiculing smile rose on the corner of his lips before he raised his hand.
Boom!
Behind him, a terrifying Battle Will swept out like a black mist from the torrential black clouds. The Battle Will had formed into a black skull that was roughly a few thousand feet in size. The skull was covered in Battle Runes.
Roar!
The skull abruptly opened its mouth and unleashed a ghostly howl. A black sound wave violently swept out. In the path of the sound wave, the earth cracked and the surrounding mountains were instantly levelled.
Amongst the Glacier Hall's army, several commanders with talent in Battle Will had also swiftly made their move, commanding their Battle Will to form into a Battle Will force that swept out.
Boom!
But the gap between the two was too great. In the path of the black sound wave, the Battle Will force that was filled with chilling aura had crumbled, turning into a chilling aura that filled the sky.
Poof!
The few commanders of the Glacier Hall suffered a heavy blow as they spewed mouthfuls of blood from their mouths. Many warriors of the Glacier Hall's army also spewed mouthfuls of blood, since they were clearly affected.
Facing the heavily injured Glacier Hall, the black-robed man still didn't show any mercy. Ferocious attacks swept out once again, forcing the Glacier Hall to retreat. There were warriors constantly having their meridians shattered by the Battle Will and fell from the sky.
In just a few minutes of confrontation, the Glacier Hall had suffered a great loss and the Glacier Hall's army was even more defeated.
After that, the scene was practically one-sided. When the Glacier Hall's army couldn't hold on any longer, a silhouette burst out from the army and charged towards the black-robed man. It was an all-out attack that even caused the sky to crack.
Such a terrifying attack was naturally made by the Glacier King, who had been enduring for a long time!
However, his attack did not achieve the expected effect. In that instant when he charged out, four black silhouettes charged out from the Netherworld Palace's army. The four of them made a move together and boundless Spiritual Energy shattered space as they clashed with the Glacier King.
Poof!
The strength of the four of them wasn't any weaker than the Glacier King. With the four of them joining hands, the Glacier King was sent flying back with blood spewing from his mouth. There were traces of blood on his body.
The four black silhouettes appeared behind the heavily injured Glacier King and stretched their hands out, grabbing onto the Glacier King.
When the Glacier Hall's army saw that the Glacier King was captured, their morale instantly plummeted and they no longer had any Battle Will as they fled. When the black-robed man saw this scene, a cruel smile rose on the corner of his lips. He waved his hand down and an eerie voice resounded across the horizon.
"Kill them all, don't leave a single one alive!"
Behind him, the army was like a swarm of locusts as they whistled out. What happened next was a practically one-sided massacre. Tens of thousands of warriors of the Glacier Hall were slaughtered, with only a few lucky ones escaping.
The massacre had dyed this entire land red with blood. The black-robed man stood in the sky with several unconscious Domain Lords of the Glacier Hall hovering beside him. With a sinister smile, he stretched his finger out and swiftly touched the centre of their brows. Instantly, their bodies started to distort in pain and their faces turned even paler, as if their vitality was being sucked out of their bodies.
In just a few breaths of time …
The bodies of those Domain Lords stiffened. The black-robed man casually tossed them aside and raised his head.
His gaze seemed to be looking at the location of the mirror as his eerie voice resounded, "Three days from now, my Netherworld Palace will hold a meeting in the Bone Mountain Range. At that time, I hope that the Great Heaven Domain will come. Otherwise, I will cut this Glacier King into two in front of all the other forces."
Speaking until here …
He slightly paused as the sinister smile on the corner of his mouth became denser, "Also, that brat called Mu Chen from the Great Heaven Domain, you must also come.
I believe that your will will be very delicious … "
Sizzle.
The black-robed man's eerie laughter reverberated in the valley as the scene disappeared.
The Asura King's face was cold.
With a wave of his sleeve, the bronze mirror was directly turned into powder.
In the valley, the faces of the various Kings were also dark with rage surging in their eyes. The Netherworld Palace had truly stepped on the head of their Great Heaven Domain!
The faces of Mu Chen, Jiu You and the rest were also a little unsightly. The Netherworld Palace was too overbearing.
Not only were their methods vicious, but they had also sent this news to their Great Heaven Domain, clearly trying to slap their faces.
"That person from before.
Even Lin Ming of the Netherworld Palace, who has been in the limelight recently, is also a Battle Formation Master. "
The Asura King's deep voice resounded, causing the eyes of the various Kings to slightly narrow. They must have heard of this name recently.
Perhaps Lin Ming's Spiritual Energy might not be placed in the eyes of the various Kings. But the moment he possessed the identity of a Battle Formation Master, they couldn't help but feel fearful. They had also witnessed how the Glacier Hall's army was swiftly defeated.
With the power of Battle Will, even a Sixth Grade Sovereign might not be able to confront Lin Ming.
Mu Chen narrowed his eyes. He had already known Lin Ming's identity when he made a move earlier. The runes on the black skull also exceeded ten thousand. Clearly, Lin Ming had become a Ten Thousand Rune Battle Formation Master.
"What do you guys think of this matter?"
The Asura King looked at the various Kings and asked in a solemn voice, "The Netherworld Palace wants to summon a gathering. It is said that many forces have been invited and the Glacier King has also fallen into their hands. If they kill the Glacier King before the various forces, it will undoubtedly be a disgrace to our Great Heaven Domain. With the war approaching, it will also affect our morale."
"Are we going to the Bones Mountain Range to rescue the Glacier King?" The Spiritual Sword King briefly pondered before he continued, "But I'm afraid that this is a trap set up by the Netherworld Palace."
"Can it be that the Netherworld Palace can annihilate our Great Heaven Domain in one fell swoop?" The Blood Hawk King frowned his brows.
"It's better to be safe than sorry."
"If the Glacier King is killed, the reputation of the Great Heaven Domain will be tarnished. I'm afraid that the Domain Lord will also be enraged."
"… …"
The Asura King looked at the various Kings that had different opinions and knitted his brows, before looking at the Mountain Splitting King. Amongst the various Kings of the Great Heaven Domain, aside from him, the Mountain Splitting King had the highest prestige. Immediately, he asked, "What do you think, Mountain Splitting King?"
When the Mountain Splitting King heard his words, he briefly pondered and couldn't help looking at Mu Chen. "Does King Mu have any suggestions?"
When the Asura King and the other higher hierarchy of the Great Heaven Domain saw the Mountain Splitting King's actions, they couldn't help being stunned. Before the Hunting War, although Mu Chen had become the youngest King in the Great Heaven Domain with the help of the King's Ceremony, his strength had barely reached the threshold of becoming a King. Therefore, he could only be ranked last amongst the various Kings.
But right now, the Mountain Splitting King had actually taken the initiative to seek Mu Chen's opinion. Furthermore, there was a trace of respect in his actions, which made the Asura King and the higher hierarchy of the Great Havenlaw Domain a little startled.
"Haha, don't underestimate King Mu. He's currently the only Battle Formation Master in our Great Heaven Domain. Even Zhantai Liuli has suffered a loss in his hands." Sensing everyone's gazes, the Mountain Splitting King couldn't help smiling.
"Oh?"
Hearing his words, even the Asura King's expression changed before he looked at Mu Chen with a grave expression. He naturally knew what a Battle Formation Master was capable of.
"What does King Mu think about this?"
The Asura King smiled towards Mu Chen and his gaze turned more courteous. He no longer looked down on Mu Chen because of the latter's age and experience.
Mu Chen also politely nodded his head towards the Asura King. Looking at everyone's gazes, he briefly pondered before he calmly spoke out.
"I suggest that we save the Glacier King!"
