The Great Ruler - Chapter998

Rumble!

Violent thunder exploded in this region as Lu Sui ferociously looked at Mu Chen. Ripples of lightning spread out from his body and every single ripple caused space to distort.

Although he regretted being lured by Zong Teng to deal with Mu Chen, he no longer had any hesitation since he had already been forced to this step. Thus, he had already decided that even if he had to suffer heavy injuries, he would still kill Mu Chen today.

Otherwise, if this matter were to spread out, it would definitely cause his reputation in the clan to suffer!

"Since you don't want face when I give it to you, then die here!"

Lu Sui's roar was akin to thunder as lightning shot out from his eyes. His hands joined together and his seals swiftly changed. Along with the changes of his seals, dazzling lightning Spiritual Energy violently surged from his body, forming into visible lightning marks that hovered before him.

The lightning marks floated in front of Lu Sui before swiftly converging together. Instantly, lightning exploded in all directions and a lightning seal that was roughly a thousand feet in size was swiftly formed within the lightning.

The lightning seal hovered between the heavens and earth. Along with its appearance, the lightning in this region endlessly whistled over and a terrifying pressure spread out along with it.

The other geniuses on the thundercloud stage had also sensed the astonishing fluctuation and their gazes had contracted, before they couldn't help exclaiming in low voices, "It's actually the World Annihilation Lightning Seal! That's a Perfect Rank Divine Art! Lu Sui was actually forced to this step by Mu Chen!"

A Perfect Rank Divine Art.

Even for the geniuses here, it could be considered as a powerful trump card.

However, no one expected that when Lu Sui faced Mu Chen, who was only at the Sixth Grade Sovereign Realm.

He was forced to reveal his trump card.

Far away, Zong Teng cast a glance with shock on his face. But shortly after, he gently smiled. Lu Sui's attack should be able to turn the situation around.

With Lu Sui's cultivation at the Seventh Grade Sovereign Realm, even he, Zong Teng, had to be cautious when facing a Perfect Rank Divine Art. Although Mu Chen's strength had exceeded his expectations, it was impossible for him to receive Lu Sui's attack.

Opposite Zong Teng.

Mo Feng's expression had also contracted, but he did not panic. That's because he knew that the only thing he could do to help Mu Chen right now was to delay Zong Teng. As for Lu Sui, he could only rely on himself to deal with him. If he really couldn't defeat Lu Sui, then he could only leave this Body Refining Pagoda.

"Mu Chen.

I hope you can persevere. This is all I can do. "

Rumble!

As Zong Teng and Mo Feng spoke, the lightning in front of Lu Sui became even more violent.

It rapidly took shape, and waves of lightning caused space to crumble.

Lu Sui stood behind the Thunder Seal.

He looked down at Mu Chen from above, his eyes filled with coldness.

This method was originally used to deal with the other sky-prides who were qualified to compete for the last five spots.

But now, he'd been forced out by Mu Chen. This would definitely cause the others to be on guard against him in the future, and it would be difficult for him to seize the initiative.

Thus, he had to tear the culprit, Mu Chen, into a thousand pieces!

Far below the Thunder Seal, Mu Chen's body constantly surged with a golden lustre. His pitch-black eyes had also turned golden at this moment, as if they were forged from gold, emanating an indescribable prestige.

He did not raise his head to look at the enormous lightning seal. Instead, he lowered his head to look at his arms. At that moment, the veins on his arms were pulsing like dragons. His flesh was boiling, and he even felt as if it was about to melt.

He slowly clenched his fist and could sense that the True Dragon and Phoenix Tattoos in his body had actually started to tremble at the same time, as if they couldn't wait to unleash the terrifying power.

Huff!

Inhaling a deep breath of air, Mu Chen raised his head. Looking at the gigantic lightning seal that occupied his vision, his gaze gradually turned fierce.

Roar!

A deep dragon roar resounded from within Mu Chen's body, trembling his flesh. Thereafter, the True Dragon Tattoo coiled on his right arm and a dragon claw slowly stretched out, perfectly fusing with Mu Chen's five fingers.

At the same time, the True Phoenix Tattoo on Mu Chen's back had also started to move for the first time. It swam along Mu Chen's skin and appeared on Mu Chen's left arm.

The True Phoenix slowly unfurled its wings and the purplish-golden wings perfectly fused with Mu Chen's left arm.

The True Dragon on the right, the True Phoenix on the left!

At this moment, a purplish-golden lustre blossomed on Mu Chen's arms. They looked as if they were forged from purplish-golden metal, containing an indestructible and terrifying power. The flesh on his arms were constantly trembling at this moment.

Rumble!

When the True Dragon and Phoenix appeared on Mu Chen's arms, the power that Lu Sui had gathered had also reached the limit. He looked down at Mu Chen with a sinister expression and slammed his palm down without any hesitation.

"World Annihilation Lightning Seal!"

Boom!

When he patted down with his palm, the lightning seal seemed to erupt with an earth-shattering bang. The peals of thunder that blotted the skies were suppressed at this moment. In the end, the lightning seal turned into a bolt of lightning that hid the skies and covered the earth, shattering space as it pressed down towards Mu Chen at lightning speed.

The nearby geniuses that had already retreated had also sped up their retreat. Evidently, they knew how terrifying Lu Sui's attack was and did not want to be implicated.

As the gigantic lightning seal pressed down, it brought along a destructive shadow. At the very centre of the shadow was the insignificant figure in Mu Chen's eyes.

Under everyone's gazes, Mu Chen raised his head and looked at the Thunder Seal that was pressing down. Thereafter, he slowly closed his eyes and the purplish-golden lustre on his arms became even more dazzling.

Roar!

A draconic roar and phoenix cry resounded within Mu Chen's body, vibrating his flesh and bones, causing Mu Chen's aura to frantically rise.

In the end, he had reached his limit.

A golden lustre shot out from Mu Chen's eyes as he raised his right arm.

He threw a punch out!

True Dragon Fist!

A dazzling golden lustre shot out and turned into a purplish-golden dragon.

The golden dragon roared and its roar shook the heavens and earth.

True Phoenix Palm!

Throwing a punch out with his right fist, Mu Chen's left palm followed closely behind and a brilliant phoenix cry resounded. A golden lustre shot out and a golden phoenix spread its wings. As it flapped its wings, it was as if a golden storm had been stirred up.

The golden dragon and phoenix turned into two streaks of light as they shot out.

In the end, they soared into the horizon and intertwined with each other like a dragon and phoenix cry. Golden lustre fluctuated and shattered space.

All the geniuses on the thundercloud stage were shocked as they looked at the intertwined golden dragon and phoenix in shock. There was an extremely astonishing pressure spreading out from them.

It made the blood in their bodies tremble.

The golden dragon and phoenix that were formed from golden lustre contained a trace of the aura of a True Dragon and Phoenix!

"How can Mu Chen's attack contain the aura of a True Dragon and Phoenix?!" Some geniuses involuntarily exclaimed with disbelief on their faces.

True Dragon and Phoenix were existences akin to kings, even amongst the top-tiered Divine Beast Clans like the Dragon and Phoenix Clans.

It was impossible for ordinary clansmen to possess them, not to mention right now.

A mere human?!

Lu Sui was also shocked at this moment. But shortly after, a ferocious light surged in his eyes.

No matter why Mu Chen's attack contained a trace of the aura of a True Dragon and Phoenix, it didn't make him waver. On the contrary, it made him even more determined to kill Mu Chen.

Since he had already established such an opponent, then he must kill him as soon as possible and not leave any future troubles.

"Kill him!"

Lu Sui roared as the Lightning Seal that was pressing down on Mu Chen became even more majestic. Lightning frantically exploded, causing the heavens and earth to tremble.

Under the numerous shocked gazes, the Lightning Seal pressed down, while the golden dragon and phoenix had turned into a golden streak of light as they soared up. In the end, the two of them had clashed in the sky!

Rumble!

In that instant of collision, a dazzling lustre burst out, causing everyone to close their eyes from the piercing pain.

In that instant of collision, Lu Sui's face drastically changed. That's because he saw that the speed of the lightning seal that was pressing down had actually slowed down at this moment and was gradually coming to a halt.

"It was blocked?!" Lu Sui's pupils contracted.

Boom!

But just when he felt disbelief, the Lightning Seal suddenly trembled and a cracking sound rang out. Fine cracks swiftly appeared on the surface of the Lightning Seal.

In just a few breaths' time, the cracks had spread out on the Lightning Seal, before a golden lustre shot out from those cracks.

Lu Sui's face swiftly turned pale. Immediately after, he made a prompt decision and retreated.

Rumble!

In that instant when Lu Sui retreated, the massive Lightning Seal had suddenly exploded. Lightning scattered in all directions and a golden lustre shot out, enveloping Lu Sui, who was retreating.

In that golden lustre, a golden dragon roared and a golden phoenix cried. The aura that originated from the True Dragon and Phoenix had directly caused the blood in Lu Sui's body to freeze.

Boom!

The speed of the golden dragon and phoenix was indescribably swift and Lu Sui couldn't dodge at all. He could only watch as the golden lustre heavily struck against his body.

Poof!

In that instant of impact, fresh blood violently spewed from Lu Sui's mouth. His chest seemed to have caved in and his figure flew out in a pathetic manner. The Spiritual Energy fluctuation around him swiftly weakened. Clearly, he had suffered heavy injuries.

After heavily injuring Lu Sui, the power of the golden lustre had also been exhausted. In the end, it had turned into a golden lustre and shattered.

Lu Sui's face was pale as he held onto his chest and looked at the golden lustre in the sky in a daze.

Rustle!

But just when he was stunned, a silhouette suddenly burst out from below with a sharp gale that had locked onto Lu Sui's head with a sharp killing intent.

Sensing that killing intent, Lu Sui's heart instantly turned cold. He knew that it must be Mu Chen, but he never expected that the latter would be so ruthless and not give him any chance to catch his breath.

With his current heavy injuries, if he continued to be entangled with Mu Chen, then there's a high chance that he might be killed by Mu Chen.

"Bastard!"

Lu Sui's body trembled. He was shocked and enraged. But in the end, he could only let out a roar and swiftly retreated with unwillingness, leaving the range of the thundercloud stage.

Buzz!

Just when he retreated from the thundercloud stage, a lustre flickered around him and his silhouette instantly disappeared. Evidently, he had been kicked out of the Body Refining Pagoda and lost the opportunity to move forward.

"Mu Chen, I will definitely tear you into pieces!"

When Lu Sui was kicked out of the Body Refining Pagoda, his roar of rage and fear had also resounded.

Standing in the sky, Mu Chen indifferently looked at the direction that Lu Sui had disappeared in. He paid no attention to the words that the other party had left behind and slowly returned to the thundercloud stage.

When Mu Chen landed on the thundercloud stage, the entire region was in silence. The other geniuses looked at him with fear in their eyes.

Mu Chen had also raised his head and indifferently swept his gaze at the other geniuses before locking his gaze onto Zong Teng, whose face was alternating between green and white. His calm voice resounded.

"Are there any other friends that are willing to spar with me?"

Mu Chen stood with his hands behind his back and his voice resounded in the thundercloud stage. Although his voice wasn't loud, there was a fearsome aura that spread out.

The gazes of those geniuses that were looking at him had also flickered at this moment, but they could only step back. That's because, at this moment, not only did Mu Chen not show any weakness after the battle, he even made others feel more dangerous.

They already understood that Mu Chen's aura had already been formed, and it wouldn't be easy to deal with him.

This time, he would definitely take one of the five quotas!
