The Great Ruler

Chapter 659 - First Battle of the Great Thousand World

The huge figure that stood on this heaven and earth, blazing with scarlet flames as though it was trying to melt the earth. A surge of indescribable blazing gale swept out as it wreaked havoc.

Liu Ming's figure had already disappeared into the huge red figure. Once the Sovereign Celestial Body was activated, it would be the perfect defence that will shield you in it.

The Sovereign Celestial Body was the perfect offence and defence. This was also the reason why every Sovereigns would chase after it so bitterly.

The scarlet figure slowly opened its eyes as flames blazed in it. At the same time, Liu Ming's voice that contained killing intent resonated throughout the heaven and earth.

"Right now, do you feel despair?"

A Sovereign Celestial Body was too crucial to the fighting ability of a Sovereign expert. So when Liu Ming knew that Mu Chen had yet to refine his, he had thoroughly let down his guards.

The Sovereign Celestial Body that he had cultivated was called the Heavenly Flames Celestial Body, ranking in the 97th among the 99 Rankings of Sovereign Celestial Bodies. Although it was ranked towards the rear, it would be foolish to belittle it just because of that.

In the Great Thousand World, any of the Sovereign Celestial Body that could be on the 99 Rankings of Sovereign Celestial Bodies were all very powerful. After all, the method of refining Sovereign Celestial Bodies were all secrets to any forces, and would not be easily passed out. Thus, many Sovereign experts could only obtain cultivating methods to ordinary Sovereign Celestial Body. Some of them could only resort to the most usual way, refining a Sovereign Celestial Body from their own Spiritual Energy. In that case, their Sovereign Celestial Body wouldn't possess any magical abilities.

Taking the Heavenly Flames Celestial Body possessed by Liu Yan, it requires his own Spiritual Energy along with the assistance of Heavenly Flames to successfully cultivate it after the perfect fusion between those two.

Some great Sovereign Celestial Bodies possessed the terrifying capability of surpassing the owner's cultivating realm in battle.

Thus, when Liu Ming knew that Mu Chen had not cultivated a Sovereign Celestial Body, there was an unwavering outcome to this battle.

"Heavenly Flames Celestial Body…"

Mu Chen had his head raised up, his gaze was grave as he looked at the colossal scarlet figure that stood in between the heaven and earth. This Liu Ming was clearly not someone that only depended on his mouth, he also possessed mighty strength as well.

Relying on such a powerful Sovereign Celestial Body, he could be considered as excellent among the First Grade Sovereign Realms.

"Can you deal with it?" Nine Nether looked at Mu Chen as a strand of worries flashed across her eyes. She initially thought that Liu Ming had only cultivated an ordinary Sovereign Celestial Body. However, she never thought that this fellow would be able to refine the Heavenly Flames Celestial Body.

"You hold up that old man. Even if we fail, we can run." Mu Chen said in a light voice.

"Be careful." Nine Nether lightly nodded her head and did not speak anymore. Chill gathered on her slender eyes as her figure moved, she had directly appeared above the colossal blackbird and flew hastily towards the distance.

Seeing her actions, the black-clothed elderly man laughed, and his figure moved. The next time he appeared, he was right in front of Nine Nether. As his sleeves fluttered, gale swept up in this region.

When Nine Nether and the elderly man was facing off, Mu Chen had gathered all his attention onto the colossal red figure. This was the first time that he had relied on himself to fight with a genuine Sovereign expert.

"You be careful."

Mu Chen gave Lin Jing a reminder as his figure flew out. He hovered in the sky as he abruptly stomped his feet, the space behind him distorted, and vaguely, a vast ocean could be seen. Within the sea, torrential purple flames were whistling in it.

"Let me give show you what a genuine Sovereign's power is!" Liu Ming's Sovereign Celestial Body extended its hand out as it pointed down with its finger.

Boom!

As that finger pointed down, space distorted and a scarlet pillar of few hundred feet shot out. That pillar of light was very starchy, as though it was lava as scarlet flames were blazing on it, seems to be very violent.

Liu Ming had only pointed a finger out, and that power had far surpassed an all-out attack from Ji Xuan back then!

This was the genuine power of those that had refined Sovereign Celestial Body!

Mu Chen raised his head as he looked at the incoming pillar of lava and inhaled a deep mouthful of air. His robe fluttered along in the wind as his expression abruptly turned cold and sharp.

He waved his sleeves, the space at his rear distorted as torrential purple light surged, a dazzling purple ray streaked out as it collided with the scarlet Spiritual Energy.

Boom!

The two clash instantly created an earth-shattering noise as Spiritual Energy gale swept out, cracks appeared on the earth beneath.

Up in the sky, Mu Chen still stood as the wind blew onto him, he was covered in brilliant purple light on the surface of his body as purple flames surged in his black pupils.

Relying on the power of his own Spiritual Energy, he managed to withstand Liu Ming's attacks.

"You're actually able to withstand my Heavenly Flames Spiritual Energy?!" a smear of shock flashed across the eyes of that huge scarlet figure. Clearly, Liu Ming had felt unbelievable on the results. The Spiritual Energy that he had cultivated was fused with Heavenly Flames and far surpassed ordinary Spiritual Energy. It was extremely overbearing, but it was blocked by Mu Chen.

"So there's something strange about your Spiritual Energy."

However, Liu Ming's eyes were keen as he saw the peculiar purple Spiritual Energy around Mu Chen. Those blazing purple flames were something that not even his Heavenly Flames could suppress.

Upon a mountain far away, two figure appeared. It was an alluring lady donned in white fox fur coat as she watched the confrontation far away. A smear of astonishment flashed across her eyes as she spoke in a light tone, "The Spiritual Energy of that youth seems a little bizarre."

"It must have been fused with a powerful flame." the middle-aged man that stood beside her spoke out in shock as he continued, "No wonder he dared to confront Liu Ming without refining any Sovereign Celestial Body, he does have some capabilities."

"It's still too early to determine the outcome. Liu Ming's Heavenly Flames Celestial Body isn't an ordinary Sovereign Celestial Body." The alluring lady smiled.

The middle-aged man nodded in agreement.

As the two of them spoke, Mu Chen's figure abruptly soared. In the next instant, he appeared before the colossal scarlet figure, on the location of its head. A scarlet ray soared up the sky as a surge of baleful aura spreads out.

"Not only did I withstand your Heavenly Flames Spiritual Energy, but I am also going to destroy your Heavenly Flames Celestial Body!"

The Great Meru Demonic Pillar appeared in that red flash as it expanded, sizing up to a hundred feet as it stood towering on the horizon, it was like an ominous object from the primordial times.

Mu Chen hugged the space as he had directly utilised the Great Meru Demonic Pillar. There wasn't a hesitation as he slammed it down on the Heavenly Flames Celestial Body, that dreadful energy even caused cracks on the space.

With Mu Chen's current strength, and adding on to the power of the Great Meru Demonic Pillar, that attack had already reached an astonishing degree.

Seeing that attack, even the two that was observing the battle from a distance away felt startled in their heart.

"Hmph!"

A cold snort came from the mouth of that scarlet figure. He clenched his fist as red flames swept out, turning into a red flaming longspear as it tore through the horizon along with a torrential ocean of fire, and heavily clashed with the Great Meru Demonic Pillar.

Boom!

The metallic collision that was as roaring as thunder rang out, the sound waves were like a tornado as it spreads out, sweeping up a violent gale in this heaven and earth.

Mu Chen's figure was sent flying out. Every single step he took exploded the air, and when he was sent flying out, the colossal scarlet figure had also made a step back and crumbled a mountain.

"What fearsome energy."

Far away, that middle-aged man couldn't help exclaiming out. Clearly, he never thought that Mu Chen could rely on his own strength to contend with Liu Ming's Sovereign Celestial Body to such an extent.

"What youth isn't simple." A smear of astonishment had also flashed across the eyes of the Heart Fairy Fox.

Blazing flames surged in the eyes of the colossal scarlet figure of Liu Ming, he stomped his feet as his massive figure flashed out similarly to lightning, creating cracks on the ground.

Blazing scarlet flames were like flaming clouds as it enveloped the horizon.

Evidently, Liu Ming had started to use the power of the Heavenly Flames Celestial Body.

He was already enraged by Mu Chen's resistance.

"You're impossibly foolish to intend to confront my Sovereign Celestial Body with your own strength!"

Liu Ming's eerie voice was similar to the roaring of thunder as it resonated in the horizon. Shortly after, that scarlet longspear turned into illusions that covered the sky along with a blazing ocean of flames as it enveloped Mu Chen. Within a radius of a thousand feet was affected by that dreadful attack.

Looking at the earth-shattering amount of spear illusions, every single spear were like an actual object. The power contained in it could even topple mountains.

His gaze grew grave as he formed seals with both his hand.

Boom!

Lightning roars as brilliant lightning flickered on the surface of Mu Chen's body. At this moment, his body had grown by a size as nine lightning runes appeared on his chest. Compared to before, it was even more refined as though it was an actual object.

"Let me give it a try…"

Lightning flickered on the surface of Mu Chen's body as his black pupils grew even colder and sharp. He licked his lips as an arc rose on the corner of his lips, filled with fighting intent.

"At how powerful is your Sovereign Celestial Body!"

Mu Chen hugged the space before him as he had directly hugged onto the Great Meru Demonic Pillar. He had charged out in this way without the slightest backing off as lightning, and purple flames swept out. Under that torrential flames, his figure was as tiny as an ant.

However, there was a clear fighting intent coming from him!

My first battle in the Great Thousand World will begin with you!
