Dong!
Above the wasteland, the glittering Immortal Golden Body exploded and turned into numerous golden spots of light, which scattered all over the sky.
Whoosh!
At that moment, a figure flew backwards, dragging deep marks in the ground as it went. He also spurted out blood, while his breath was languishing. When he finally came to a stop, he laid in the pit. It was clearly evident that he had been seriously wounded.
When the man was completely rendered useless for combat, the Aeon Tower seemed to sense it immediately, and within moments, the space around him twisted and sent him directly out of the tower. Once he was sent out of the tower, a purple and gold glow shone out from his forehead.
In the distance, a shadow slowly fell from mid-air. As he did so, he grabbed the ray of light. As the purple and gold light hovered in his hand, a huge purple and gold shadow emerged behind him, devouring the ray of purple and gold light.
As the Immortality Aura entered it, the massive purple gold body’s light became more profound and condensed. At that moment, a strong air of immortality surrounded it, making it even more majestic. This was the fourth Immortality Aura!
This figure was naturally Mu Chen, and as he looked at the profound and condensed Immortal Golden Body behind him, wonder flashed in his eyes. At this moment, he had defeated four competitors. At the same time, he had also obtained four Immortality Auras from them.
The four sources of these Immortality Auras had been devoured by his Immortal Golden Body, which was more than 20% stronger than it was before. Although it was only an improvement of 20%, such an increase was not to be underestimated.
After all, Mu Chen’s Immortal Golden Body had almost been refined to the point of optimum success. As such, it was extremely difficult to refine it further, let alone 20% in 1 hour!
Moreover, this was just the beginning. If he could take away the Immortality Aura of all of the others in the Aeon Tower, his Immortal Golden Body’s power would then soar to a rather terrifying level. At the thought of this, Mu Chen’s gaze burned with determination.
Buzz.
As he considered this, he suddenly sensed that the space between the heavens and the earth had just vibrated violently, and the surrounding scene began to appear vague and distorted. This change did not surprise Mu Chen. In fact, it seemed as if he had expected it to happen.
At that moment, he narrowed his eyes and murmured to himself, “Have half of them already been eliminated? That was fast!”
Clearly, the reason for this change was that half of the 108 Immortal Golden Body practitioners in the tower had been eliminated. Once the gradual elimination ended, he should be able to reach the same level as the Primordial Immortal Body!
The surrounding space constantly twisted before it finally settled down and became clear once more. At this time, the original wasteland also underwent a huge change. Specifically, it transformed into many mountain peaks.
Mu Chen stood above a green peak, and as the surrounding space settled, his gaze immediately looked forward. There, on two hills not far away, two silhouettes had emerged.
One of them was at the later stage of the Spiritual Grade and was not at all eye-catching. Thus, Mu Chen focused his attention on the other one.
The other one was a man in a blue robe, whose face was fierce. One knew at a single glance that he was trouble. One could also tell that he had already reached the middle-stage of God Grade from the vastness of the spiritual fluctuations that were emanating from his body.
When Mu Chen saw the blue-robed man, the latter locked gazes with him at the same time. Then, when he saw Mu Chen’s appearance clearly, he was slightly stunned.
He then smirked as he remarked cryptically, “I did not expect to run into the famous Mu Estate Master here.”
“And… You are?” Mu Chen’s face was emotionless.
“I am Qin Donghai. I am just an ordinary figure, and I’ve nothing special to mention about myself. I’m only ranked sixth on the List of Victory Records… Just behind you.” The man in the blue robe looked at Mu Chen, clearly assessing him.
Mu Chen nodded slightly and looked calm. Not far away, a man in the later stage of the Spiritual Grade sensed the tension between the two men, then slipped back and fled into the distance.
Mu Chen saw him leave, but did not go after him, as he could feel Qin Donghai in front of him, gazing on him as if he was his prey. So. Mu Chen turned to him and asked, “Do you want to fight me?”
“I’d like to see how powerful you are, as you are ranked a little ahead of me.” Qin Donghai smiled carelessly, then added, “Why? Is the Mu Estate Master afraid?”
“I’m only afraid you’ll run away,” Mu Chen said nonchalantly. “After all, it’s rare to meet such a big fish.”
In his mind, Qin Donghai’s Immortality Aura was far stronger than an ordinary person’s. Hence, it was obvious that he had defeated several competitors and seized their Immortality Auras in the past.
So, even if Qin Donghai was not necessarily targeted him, he would surely not let him go. After all, as long as he defeated him, his Immortality Aura would be strong enough to stand against several other people!
During their confrontation, outside the Aeon Tower, countless Sovereigns became aware of the situation. Immediately their gazes locked onto a light glass of spiritual energy, and they all started commenting at once…
“It’s Qin Donghai and Mu Chen! Qin Donghai is a Sovereign, who has been famous for many years, and his record is equally remarkable as Mu Chen’s.”
“Yes, he is at the middle-stage God Grade, and when he has acted together with the Immortal Golden Body as a powerful combat force, he has successfully defeated many of the Sovereigns of the same rank in the past!”
“If these two men fight, who will get the last laugh? It’s hard to tell!”
All around the Aeon Tower, many murmurs rang out. In these dozens of spiritual light glasses, two powerful Sovereigns had finally clashed. There was no doubt that this particular confrontation would be much better than the rest of the battles that were currently taking place!
“The boy has finally met a troublesome match, as Qin Donghai is no pushover!” Budur Xuan commented as he looked at the two figures in the light glass and narrowed his eyes.
Qing Yanjing smiled gently and said, “Qin Donghai is not worthy to be Mu Chen’s enemy.”
Budur Xuan scoffed, “You flatter the boy too much!”
“That’s because my son is qualified,” Qing Yanjing stated confidently.
“I’d like to see him win, then. There’s no Fortify Clan Grand Array here for him to use now…” Budur Xuan was still offended that Mu Chen had used the Fortify Clan Grand Array to defeat the Budur Ancient Clan Elders in the past.
…
Boom!
At that moment, a powerful spiritual energy formed a storm, which immediately surrounded Qin Donghai’s whole body. The spiritual force then squeezed the entire space, distorting it.
The peaks under his feet were also breaking apart constantly. This complete burst of power from a middle-stage God Grade being was absolutely earth-shattering!
As Mu Chen looked at Qing Donghai’s domineering aura, he raised an eyebrow. Qin Donghai’s aura revealed that he was more powerful than even the Ghost Emperor, who had the same rank!
“I may not be able to deal with the top four, but apart from them, no one can stop me!” Qin Donghai’s voice boomed like thunder, and it was full of pride.
When Mu Chen heard these words, he smiled and said, “Then, I am different from you, as even the four of them can’t stop me!”
Qin Donghai’s eyes narrowed as he at Mu Chen sneered coldly. Mu Chen’s remark clearly was insinuating that he was far superior to him!
“I’d like to see you prove that you have the right to say such a thing!” Qin Donghai’s gaze was sharp, while his hands suddenly conjured up seals and his sleeves billowed.
Immediately, a vast ocean swept out of his sleeves. It was then transformed by spiritual energy, and under its impact, even the space shattered.
“Sleeves of East Sea!” Qin Donghai roared thunderously, only to see the blue spiritual ocean fill both the heavens and the earth as it surged toward Mu Chen.
The ocean of spiritual energy, which was filled with raging dark currents, flooded in all directions, blocking every path of retreat. If one was caught in it, he would be quickly engulfed and consumed!
However, Mu Chen’s face remained calm. He then took a deep breath and opened his mouth abruptly and yelled, “Spirit Devouring Purple Flame!”
The next moment, purple flames surged out, then immediately formed a magnificent ring of fire that swept across the space. Wherever the purple flames passed by, the vast sea of spiritual power burned it up in an instant!
When Qin Donghai saw this scene, his gaze turned dark, and he began to conjure seals with lightning speed. “Sea Dragon Art!” he yelled.
Roar!
At that moment, the sky broke apart, as if the Heavenly River had just descended. The energy that had been summoned then transformed into an eight-headed sea dragon, and its roars caused the heavens and earth to shake. Its power was truly majestic.
“Water Oblivion Pearl!” he yelled next, as an ocean gathered between Qin Donghai’s hands.
It then compressed wildly before finally transforming into a dark blue pearl. The spiritual pearl surged with tumultuous waves, as if contained endless ocean currents.
In just a few moments, Qin Donghai had revealed two immensely powerful, top-notch Rare Super Powers, which were enough to annihilate any middle-stage God Grade opponent!
“Go!” Qin Donghai yelled, while the sea dragon roared and the dark blue pearl crushed the space and flew directly toward Mu Chen’s head.
However, Mu Chen still remained motionless, while a chaotic light soared up into the sky, flashing right in front of him. At the spot where the light of chaos had just emerged, the sea dragon and the dark blue spiritual pearl vanished into thin air. Qin Donghai’s aura had instantly dissipated!
Qin Donghai looked at this scene, his face green with fury. He had done his best, but Mu Chen had just stood there motionlessly, yet he had somehow managed to still wipe out all of Qin Donghai’s attacks effortlessly! The gap between these two was clearly evident.
“I don’t believe how good you are!” Qin Donghai was in disbelief as he yelled in dismay.
At the same time, a purple gold radiance surged behind him as a huge Immortal Golden Body surfaced and purple gold light shook the entire space. When he was faced with Mu Chen’s powerful means, he had to summon the Immortal Golden Body!
“Have you finally decided to use your Immortal Golden Body?” Mu Chen smiled when he saw this scene. He then stretched out his finger and pointed it in the air…
When Qin Donghai saw him pointing upward, he looked up and was appalled to see that a heavy crystal tower had just descended from the sky, piercing through the space! It was shrouded with shadows and enveloped him and his Immortal Golden Body immediately!
Snap!
Mu Chen snapped his fingers, and the sound of it rang out crisply in the air. He then yelled, “Eight Budur!”
Boom!
At that moment, the crystal tower vibrated violently, and as the violent spiritual fluctuations were transmitted, they caused the nearby space to collapse. This vibration lasted for a long time before it finally subsided.
Mu Chen looked calm, and with a wave of his sleeve, the crystal pagoda turned into a ray of light and returned to his head. As that happened, the space collapsed.
Qin Donghai’s figure had long since disappeared, and only a strong purple gold light was left hovering. Soon, the light charged hurriedly toward Mu Chen.
Upon seeing it, Mu Chen stretched out his hand, which held the powerful Immortality Aura, and could clearly feel the grandeur of it. A satisfied smile emerged on his face, and without looking at the place where Qin Donghai had disappeared to, he turned and walked away.
While Mu Chen was dealing with Qin Donghai, outside of the Aeons Tower, countless Sovereigns were dumbfounded as they witnessed this scene. Silence descended upon the entire crowd.
No one thought that the battle, which was supposed to be a truly fierce one, would be over so quickly!
