The Great Ruler

Chapter 788 - One Finger Devouring the Heavens

A dazzling golden light charged down from the horizon. It was an extremely powerful force of energy that nearly shattered space, instantly causing the ground the cave in.

The ground, which was where the golden-armoured Guardian stood, crumbled when it stopped its charging figure, and raised its emotionless gaze for the first time to look at the golden figure that was charging down.

That level of strength was sufficient to attract his attention.

Creak!

The golden-armored Guardian was covered in dragon scales as it slowly clenched its fist. As the dragon scales rubbed against one another, there was a piercing noise ringing out, along with a powerful force, causing visible ripples around its fist.

Its golden pupils were fixed on the golden figure, which was charging over without any trace of emotions in its pupils.

Boom!

As the golden streak charged down, the indifferent pupils of the golden-armoured Guardian were reflected in Mu Chen's eyes. The emotionless expression of the latter was sufficient to collapse the will of others.

But it was a pity that Mu Chen wasn't amongst those. He had his sight fixed on the golden-armoured Guardian. There wasn't any fear in his black pupils. On the contrary, a blade-like sharpness surged.

Roar!

A Sovereign Sea appeared behind Mu Chen, along with draconic roars and elephant trumpet sounds. Two dragons and elephants flew out and swiftly formed into a dragon-elephant light halo.

"Slice it for me!" Mu Chen roared out like thunder as he gathered all of his power on his palm, causing the dragon-elephant light halo to frantically spin in his hands. There were even black spatial cracks.

Rustle!

As the dragon-elephant light halo whizzed, it was like a divine light that slashed down on the head of the golden-armoured Guardian without any hesitation. A sharp feeling was emitting from the light ray, instantly causing smooth cuts on this land.

Roar!

The golden-armoured Guardian's eyes reflected the dragon-elephant light halo as it issued a beast-like roar from its throat, then clenched its fist as the dragon scales on its arm bloomed with light. The golden-armoured Guardian threw a fist out. The energy was like an erupting volcano that heavily clashed with the dragon-elephant light halo.

Boom!

In that instant of impact, a dazzling light soared into the sky. It was so much so that even the light from daytime had turned dark at this moment. The dazzling golden light had practically enveloped a range of tens of thousands of feet.

Boom! Boom!

The ground beneath the golden-armoured Guardian constantly collapsed as both Mu Chen and it flickered with a chilled light. The light in their eyes was extremely ferocious.

Boom!

A blazing golden sun rose from their point of contact, before exploding. In an instant, a terrifying blast wave swept out. The body of Mu Chen and the golden-armoured Guardian trembled, before they flew back from the blast wave.

Boom!

Two figures flew back in a pathetic state, penetrating through several mountains, causing those mountains to crumble. A huge rumbling noise resonated in this region.

The violent golden light gradually dissipated as smoke rose up in this region.

Along with the rising smoke, a figure crawled up from the mess of rocks in a pathetic manner under the far away, crumbled mountain. At this moment, Mu Chen was covered with dust and his face was a little pale. Blood dripped down along his fingers on his right palm, dying the shattered rocks red.

Clearly, that previous confrontation wasn't easy for him.

Mu Chen slowly wiped the blood off the corner of his lips with shock filling in his eyes. Only after fighting with the golden-armoured Guardian, did he know how terrifying it was.

If it wasn't for him having the Ersatz Dragon Physique, his arm might be broken from the earlier confrontation.

"Truly not easy to deal with." Mu Chen bitterly smiled. Just as he finished speaking, he saw huge stones at a ruined mountain in the distance explode into dust.

As the dust fell, a golden-armoured figure slowly emerged. It was still holding onto a golden warspear. The golden light around it was still bright when he fixed onto Mu Chen with its emotionless eyes.

It slowly raised its hand, where some shattered dragon scales could be seen, showing that Mu Chen's attack wasn't completely useless.

Looking at the figure, Mu Chen felt a chill down his spine. That attack from before was practically his strongest, but even so, it had only caused the dragon scales on the golden-armoured Guardian to shatter and did not achieve the effect that Mu Chen wanted.

"Damn it!"

Mu Chen clenched his teeth as he cursed. Compared to Liu Yan, this golden-armoured Guardian was basically many times harder to deal with.

Boom!

The golden-armoured Guardian looked at Mu Chen with its golden pupils, then burst out in the next instant. Along the way, the stones were shattered into dust as it pointed its golden warspear at Mu Chen.

Right now, it had finally acted towards Mu Chen. Earlier, it did not feel that such a weak young man was qualified. But during the earlier exchange it had with Mu Chen, it changed its view on Mu Chen.

It had already treated Mu Chen as an enemy that was sufficiently dangerous.

But at this moment, Mu Chen clearly did not wish for it to raise the dangerous level of him to this level. Thus, his figure retreated like a bolt of lightning with a stomp of his foot.

At this sort of time, clashing with the golden-armoured Guardian was clearly a foolish thing to do.

Boom!

But the golden-armoured Guardian did not seem to have any intention of letting him go as it charged over. There wasn't anything before it that could obstruct it, since it was all reduced to dust.

A golden light surged on its body as its speed abruptly burst, leaving behind afterimages.

Mu Chen's face drastically changed at this scene. Before he could increase his speed, space was torn apart before him. A fuzzy golden shadow appeared, there wasn't any hesitation as the spear in its hands turned into a golden streak that was ruthlessly aimed at his throat.

That spear was extremely shocking, be it the speed or trajectory, both had reached a perfect level. At this moment, Mu Chen could only quietly look as the sharp spear swiftly expanded in his eyes, he actually could not avoid it.

Aghast filled Mu Chen's eyes as he clenched his teeth and stretched his hand out to grab the spear tip. This was what he could do at this moment. Although he would have to pay a considerable price, that's still better than having his throat pierced.

However, just when Mu Chen's hand and the spear tip were about to into contact, space suddenly, bizarrely distorted before him and a seven-coloured sword tip flew out from the void and accurately clashed with the spear tip.

A metallic clash rang out as a seven-coloured light surged. The golden warspear trembled. The golden-armoured Guardian jolted as well, before it was sent flying back.

It took over a hundred steps back before it could stabilise its body. Suddenly raising its head, its golden pupils were fixed on the space before Mu Chen. In that location, space distorted as a beautiful figure slowly appeared.

Mu Chen had also raised his head to look at the figure. Cai Xiao was still Cai Xiao, but her black hair had turned into seven gorgeous colours.

Her seven-coloured hair fluttered in the wind, and an incomprehensible mystery was under that gorgeous, which would cause a chill to rise in the hearts of others.

Cai Xiao slightly turned her head, her pupils had also turned into seven colours as she looked at Mu Chen with a smile on her alluring face.

"Not bad." She smiled. There was evident praise in her tone. Clearly, it was rather unexpected that he could achieve this.

Mu Chen bitterly smiled as he sat on the rock. His tightly tensed body had also relaxed at this moment as pain surged. He pulled the corner of his lips as he replied, "It'll depend on you, next."

Clashing with the golden-armoured Guardian had clearly caused his qi and blood to roll. If it wasn't for Cai Xiao appearing at the right time, he might've been heavily injured.

Compared to a Fourth Grade Sovereign like Liu Yan, a Fifth Grade Sovereign was simply too powerful.

"Leave the rest to me."

Cai Xiao nodded her head, before turning around to look at the distant golden-armoured Guardian. A faint light gathered in her seven-coloured pupils as a seven-coloured light spread out from her body.

Roar!

The golden-armoured Guardian roared like a beast, fixing its gaze on Cai Xiao. Its intuition told it that right now, Cai Xiao was several times more dangerous than before.

The golden pupils of the golden-armoured Guardian flickered with light and abruptly burst out in the next instant. The golden warspear in its hand had turned into a beam of golden light that seemed like it could pierce through the heavens with an indescribable pressure spreading out in this region.

There seemed to be a shadow of a True Dragon and Phoenix soaring in the golden light as it enveloped the body of the spear. The might even caused this region to tremble.

This time, the golden-armoured Guardian had put its full power into its attack.

Looking from afar, Mu Chen couldn't help clenching his fist. Can the current Cai Xiao really block such an attack?

Under Mu Chen's nervous gaze, Cai Xiao's seven-coloured hair gently fluttered in the wind as she slowly raised her slender finger. Her slender finger flickered with a white light like an ivory, it was so gorgeous that others could not shift their eyes away from it.

Furthermore, it was this gorgeous finger that was emitting a fatal dangerous fluctuation.

Cai Xiao gently strode forth with her finger pointed out. It clashed with the shocking attack of the golden warspear, being as light as a feather as they clashed against one another.

In that instant of the clash, a soft murmur came from her rosy lips, which resounded like an endless clap of thunder in this region, "One Finger Devouring the Heavens!"
