Rumble!
A violent thunderous roar reverberated across the entire region, causing the sky and earth to tremble. Every expert had a grave expression on their faces as they looked at the bolt of lightning that flew out from Mu Chen's palm.
{}{}}
That bolt of lightning didn't seem to be very majestic, there was only a lightning dragon that was roughly a few feet in size. However, the power contained in such a small lightning dragon had caused the faces of some Sixth Grade Sovereigns to drastically change.
That tiny lightning dragon was formed from many runes, containing the Battle Will of the five troops. With such a massive amount of Battle Will compressed together, the destructive power could shake the heavens and earth.
Although the Nine Lightning Tribulation Visualisation Technique that Mu Chen had obtained was incomplete, he still managed to obtain a Battle Will Art left behind by the Nine Tribulation Battle Emperor.
And this technique, was the "Nine Tribulation Lightning Dragon Mark" that Mu Chen was currently using.
From the information that Mu Chen had obtained, the Nine Tribulation Lightning Dragon Runes were casually left behind by the Nine Tribulation Lightning Emperor. But regardless of anything, it was still something that was left behind by a pinnacle powerhouse comparable to a Heavenly Sovereign. Regardless of whether it was strong or weak, it was still extremely powerful in the eyes of someone at Mu Chen's level.
Take the Nine Tribulation Lightning Dragon Runes for example. It was a unique method to compress Battle Will. It was said that if it was cultivated to the limit, the lightning dragon runes that would be formed would only be the size of a fly. Although it would be smaller, the might was something that not even a Ninth Grade Sovereign could defend against.
Of course, the "Thunder Dragon Mark" that Mu Chen had condensed was nearly three meters in size, which was the size of a mosquito.
Clearly, there was still a long way to go. But even so, the domineering level of it was still impressive.
It far surpassed the Devil Devouring Seal that Lin Ming had executed.
Although Mu Chen did not know what inheritance Lin Ming had obtained, it was undoubtedly ridiculous for him to try to compare himself to the Nine Tribulations Battle Emperor.
Mu Chen's black eyes were indifferently locked onto Lin Ming, whose expression had changed drastically. Without any hesitation, his slender fingers gently tapped the air.
Boom!
A bolt of lightning that wasn't thick instantly tore through space and appeared before Lin Ming in the blink of an eye.
At this moment, the latter finally came back to his senses.
Immediately, all the hairs on his body stood on end. A low roar came from his throat, and his hands suddenly formed a seal.
A low roar resounded, "Endless Land, Devil Devouring Mouth!"
Roar!
Behind him, a vast battle intent swept out from the majestic army like a black tide.
It directly pierced through the void.
It appeared in front of Lin Ming, and as it gathered together, it turned into a huge dark black mouth that was about ten thousand feet in size.
The gigantic mouth opened, revealing a pitch-black darkness within. It was as if it was a bottomless black hole. It felt as if it was connected to a black hole world, and anything that entered it would be sucked dry.
Will be drowned in darkness.
Xiu!
However, the lightning dragon did not pay any attention to it.
As the thunderous roar resounded, it had charged into the black mouth without any hesitation.
When Lin Ming saw the lightning rune dragon being devoured, he was cautious and did not get carried away. He immediately changed his hand seals in an attempt to control his Battle Will to destroy the lightning rune dragon. But in that instant, just when he willed it in his heart, a droning thunderous roar suddenly resounded from the black mouth.
An indescribably domineering battle intent erupted from the giant black mouth like a volcano.
Sensing how violent the Battle Will was, Lin Ming's face drastically changed and his silhouette instantly burst in retreat. As he retreated, the black Battle Will swiftly formed into layers of massive Battle Will light screens before him, protecting him like a barrier.
Crack!
Just when Lin Ming decisively retreated, the massive mouth that was akin to a demon finally couldn't bear the terrifying Battle Will that had suddenly burst out. Cracks appeared on the surface of the massive mouth before lightning shot out from those cracks. Thereafter, the massive mouth abruptly exploded.
Rumble!
Along with a boundless Battle Will, the lightning swept out like a torrent, instantly shattering the layers of Battle Will light screens that were obstructing before them.
In just a few breaths' time, the defences that Lin Ming had left behind when he retreated had practically been destroyed. Thereafter, the lightning Battle Will surged over like a wave of lightning, enveloping Lin Ming and pressing down.
As the shadow enveloped over, Lin Ming's face was dark. Shortly after, he stomped his foot and the black skull-like Battle Spirit appeared above him. It opened its ferocious mouth and a massive ring-shaped black sound wave abruptly spread out.
Boom!
Boom!
The substantial sound wave, which was formed from Battle Will, heavily slammed against the lightning wave, causing a violent explosion to resound. Even space had suddenly distorted from the point of contact.
When Mu Chen saw this scene, a cold light flashed in his eyes and his seals abruptly changed.
Boom!
The lightning on the lightning wave suddenly turned dazzling at this moment. If one took a closer look, they would realise that the lightning runes in the lightning wave had suddenly shattered at this moment.
The runes exploded.
As the dazzling lightning swept out, the massive black sound wave had exploded. Lin Ming had also suffered the impact and his silhouette retreated in a pathetic manner with a groan coming from his throat.
Lin Ming's silhouette was blown a thousand feet away. Behind him, many warriors in the massive troop couldn't help spewing mouthfuls of blood. Evidently, they were also affected by the clash of Battle Wills.
Rustle!
An uproar resounded in this region. Clearly, no one expected that Lin Ming, who initially held the upper hand, would be turned around in just a few minutes.
The smile on the faces of the higher hierarchy of the Netherworld Palace, which was initially filled with joy, had stiffened. Evidently, the ferocity of Mu Chen's counterattack had exceeded their expectations.
On the other hand, the Kings of the Great Havenlaw Domain, who had their faces tensed up, felt heavily relieved. The Asura King's brows, which were tightly knitted, had also gradually loosened up.
"Haha. Asura King, don't worry about it. Since King Mu dares to use such a ruthless method, then he must have his own considerations. Although Lin Ming is formidable, King Mu isn't someone easy to deal with." The Mountain Splitting King smiled from the side.
The Asura King smiled as he looked at the youthful silhouette in the distance with emotions in his eyes. "The Nine Nether King has brought back an outstanding young man for our Great Havenlaw Domain."
A smear of a smile appeared on Jiu You's face as she looked at Mu Chen. Back then, when she brought Mu Chen to the Great Heaven Domain, no one could have imagined that in just two years, this unremarkable youth would grow to such a height. Furthermore, she was clear that this was only the beginning. In the future, his name would definitely resound throughout the entire Greatlaw Continent and even the entire Great Thousand World.
"That fellow is truly a centipede that doesn't fall down even after death!"
In the direction of the Divine Pavilion, Fang Yi's face was a little unsightly as he looked at Mu Chen, who had turned the situation around, and coldly said with his teeth gnashed.
"The luck of the Great Heaven Domain this time is pretty good to find such an outstanding young man."
The Sky Dragon Lord knitted his brows. Mu Chen's name had only risen in a short span of one to two years, but no one had expected that this dark horse would be able to last till now.
Facing Mu Chen's outstanding performance, even someone like the Sky Dragon Lord had to give him a pretty good evaluation.
"Although Mu Chen's reversal was brilliant, that Lin Ming isn't that easy to deal with."
Zhantai Liuli suddenly spoke out in a soft voice as she looked at Lin Ming, who was far away. She was slightly fearful of this fellow that she had fought in the past. Furthermore, she could vaguely sense that the inheritance that the latter had obtained seemed to be extremely unusual, and if she wasn't careful, she might fail miserably.
When Zhantai Liuli finished her words, Lin Ming slowly wiped the trace of blood on the corner of his lips under countless gazes as he looked at Mu Chen with a dark gaze.
"After I became a Battle Formation Master, you're the first opponent that could injure me."
The killing intent in Lin Ming's voice had practically spread out with his sinister gaze looking extremely terrifying.
Looking at Lin Ming, whose eyes were covered in blood veins, Mu Chen squinted his eyes.
"So to show that I regard you with importance, I will use my strongest means to kill you!"
The smile on the corner of Lin Ming's lips grew even more eerie as he bit down on his palm. Instantly, blood flowed down from his palm. Furthermore, that blood was actually black in colour, which looked extremely bizarre.
Lin Ming's face gradually distorted as blood gushed out from the center of his palm. Along with the blood gushing out, a black bead that was roughly the size of a baby's fist gradually emerged from his palm.
When that black pearl appeared, if one took a closer look at it, there seemed to be many sinister faces in it with sharp roars that resounded from it. Those roars were filled with resentment and hatred.
A peculiar fluctuation was being emitted.
When Mu Chen and Zhantai Liuli sensed that fluctuation, their faces drastically changed. That's because they could sense that it was a fluctuation of intent.
The two of them fixed their eyes on the black pearl and suddenly sucked in a cold breath. That's because they realised that the numerous faces in the pearl were those Battle Will Commanders that were defeated by Lin Ming and couldn't awaken in the end.
So it turned out that their disappearing intents were forcefully extracted by Lin Ming!
"That fellow, no wonder he specifically targeted those Battle Will Commanders. So it turns out that he has bound the intents of those Battle Will Commanders!" Zhantai Liuli wore a grave expression as she felt a chill in her heart from Lin Ming's vicious means.
"Hehe!"
The smile hanging on the corner of Lin Ming's lips grew even more sinister as he grabbed the black pearl and shoved it into his mouth under the shocked gazes of Mu Chen and the rest.
His eyes had practically turned red in an instant, as if there was blood seeping out from them. It was extremely terrifying.
