The Great Ruler

Chapter 927 - Final Battle

Nine Nether's slender silhouette leapt down the stage with powerful Spiritual Energy undulations spreading around her. After absorbing the Spiritual Energy essences left behind by the Demonic Golden Lion, there was clearly an increase in her strength.

Seeing Nine Nether, unconsciously, the Kings all felt solemn. Especially te Blood Hawk King, who looked at Nine Nether with a little reverence in his eyes.

That's because, after the previous battle, they knew that Nine Nether's current strength had already exceeded them. Amongst the Kings in the Great Havenlaw Domain, probably only the Asura King and Mountain Splitting King could suppress Nine Nether.

It was so much so that if Nine Nether had a little more time, she might even surpass the Mountain Splitting King.

Just thinking about it, the Blood Hawk King and the rest couldn't help slightly sighing. Back then, when Nine Nether became a King of the Great Havenlaw Domain, the Sky Vulture Emperor's support was the reason why they could stand on equal grounds. Using her background as one from the Nine Nether Bird Clan, she was raised up to a King. So they naturally had looked down on her, which resulted in all the grudges in the past.

But after today's battle, they had to admit that the Nine Nether King that they once looked down on had already, unknowingly, exceeded them. Therefore, it was unavoidable for them to have complicated feelings surging up in their hearts.

"Haha. Well done." The Sky Vulture Emperor was gratified as he looked at Nine Nether. The outstanding performance of the latter had thrown light on his face.

Mandala had slightly nodded her head as well. Nine Nether's match was indeed delightful and the Sky Vulture Emperor wasn't wrong with his words. Nine Nether had a shocking talent and her future attainments couldn't be limited.

Nine Nether smiled before looking at the four remaining Kings who had not fought yet, especially Mu Chen…

With the match progressed to the sixth, their Great Havenlaw Domain only had to obtain two victories. Just two victories and they would be able to break the array.

But evidently, it wouldn't be an easy task.

Amongst the four remaining Kings, Mu Chen was the weakest. If the troops were still here, then he could use the power of Battle Will to even surpass the Mountain Splitting King and fight on equal terms with the Asura King.

But it was a pity that he couldn't use the troops here. The only thing that Mu Chen could rely on was his Fifth Grade Sovereign cultivation. The Kings here had all stepped into at least the Sixth Grade Sovereign Realm. So on the surface, Mu Chen was on the lower end…

No one was optimistic about the four remaining battles.

Mandala had knitted her slim brows, since she knew how difficult it would be for the four remaining battles. But at this point in time, giving up was not an option. Even after knowing that the chances of them failing was great, they still had to give it a try.

Therefore, she had cast her gaze at the four remaining Kings.

The Iron Python King, Vajra King, Great Cliff King, as well as the last, Mu Chen.

Amongst the four, three of them had just made their breakthrough into the Sixth Grade Sovereign Realm not too long ago, thus their strengths were weaker than the Blood Hawk King, whereas Mu Chen was only at the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm.

Even after knowing that the chances of winning weren't high, Mandala still gently waved her hand, indicating to continue the battles. No matter what, they still had to give it a try.

Bearing a positive mindset did not result in winning. After Nine Nether, the Iron Python King and Vajra King had both stepped out but their results made everyone feel solemn in their hearts.

The Iron Python King, defeated!

The Vajra King, defeated!

Although it wasn't unexpected for a defeat, everyone's faces had become dark and gloomy when the reality hit them.

The Iron Python King and Vajra King both retreated in shame. The opponents that they had encountered were slightly stronger than them, so it was hard for them to gain the upper hand in their fight.

This Earth Sovereign Realm Treasury was indeed highly dangerous. Just the first obstacles had already obstructed their steps.

"Let me have the ninth match."

Along with the Iron Python King and Vajra King's defeat, Great Cliff King took in a deep breath before he stomped the ground and flew towards the stage. His robust silhouette was like a dense mountain.

Everyone looked at the Great Cliff King's silhouette and sighed. Clearly, they did not hold many hopes for the latter. After all, in terms of strength, he was on the same level as the Iron Python King and Vajra King.

Rumble!

When the Great Cliff King stood on the stage, another pillar trembled in the palace as an azure bronze fell and a black silhouette heavily descended on the stage with an ominous aura spreading out.

Everyone had immediately directed their gazes over and saw a rather small-built being in black, as if it was forged with black iron while having the head of a monkey.

"One of the ten ominous beasts, Demonic Blackiron Monkey." Mandala looked at that figure as she gently sighed in her heart. The Demonic Blackiron Monkey wasn't a top-tier amongst the ten ominous beasts but was rather troublesome to deal with. That's because it had a speed that could toy around with a Sixth Grade Sovereign.

It looked like the chances of winning for the Great Cliff King weren't high.

Roar!

When the Demonic Blackiron Monkey appeared, it displayed its razor teeth towards the Great Cliff King before letting out a peal of strange laughter. When its laughter rang out, its figure had instantly disappeared on the spot.

"What terrifying speed!" The Kings all felt startled as they exclaimed.

Boom!

Just when they had exclaimed, the Great Cliff King's silhouette had been heavily blown back on the stage as deep claw marks appeared on his face. The wound was so deep to the point that bones could be seen with fresh blood flowing from the wound.

Chip!

The Demonic Blackiron Monkey's figure had appeared at the spot where the Great Cliff King initially stood and had let out a burst of laughter. In the next moment, it had turned into a black streak of light once again and disappeared.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

For the next few minutes, the Great Cliff King was in a desperate state. He was in a disadvantageous position while facing the Demonic Blackiron Monkey's ghostly speed. Wounds covered his body and he was practically covered in his own blood.

Practically everyone had lost their confidence when they watched this scene.

Just when everyone was disappointed with bitter smiles, Mandala, who was staring at the battle, suddenly had a lustre flashing across her golden pupils. With her dreadful strength, she could naturally feel that despite the Great Cliff King being in a pathetic state, riddled with wounds, he did not suffer any fatal injuries, even for someone like him that excelled in defences, to begin with.

Furthermore, Mandala could also vaguely feel that there was a violent Spiritual Energy gathering in the body of the Great Cliff King, who was taking a beating.

The Great Cliff King looked like he couldn't retaliate. But in actual fact, he was secretly brewing up his attack. His patience was extraordinary.

Boom!

Another heavy strike had sent the Great Cliff King out dozens of feet. But before he could recover from it, an ominous aura blew in his face and a ferocious monkey face had appeared before him.

A cold light streaked across as the claws of the Demonic Blackiron Monkey, which seemed like blades, were heavily thrusting towards the Great Cliff King's chest.

The Great Cliff King had raised his arm, using his arm to withstand that attack.

Poosh!

Fresh blood splattered as the Demonic Blackiron Monkey's sharp blade-like claws burrowed into the Great Cliff King's arm.

But at the same time, when the Demonic Blackiron Monkey's claws dug into the Great Cliff King's flesh, a cold smile had appeared on his face, which was covered in blood.

A terrifying Spiritual Energy gathered on his other hand. The Great Cliff King had formed a miniature mountain on his palm.

This miniature and exquisite-looking mountain was formed after the Great Cliff King had suppressed his Spiritual Energy and a terrifying undulation was emanating from it, causing space to ripple from it.

"Beast, it's my turn now!"

The Great Cliff King coldly smiled as he threw his fist forth like a bolt of lightning towards the Demonic Blackiron Monkey's head.

Chip!

Sensing the Great Cliff King's terrifying attack, the Demonic Blackiron Monkey swiftly intended to execute its terrifying speed to dodge that attack. But at this moment, it realised that it couldn't pull its claws out. The muscles were wriggling on Great Cliff King's arm and had clamped the claws in his muscles.

The Demonic Blackiron Monkey's ghostly speed was restricted.

Boom!

In a flash, the mountain-like palm of the Great Cliff King had whistled over. In the next moment, it had smashed towards the head of the Demonic Blackiron Monkey without any hesitation. A spurting noise resounded and the latter's head was like a watermelon that exploded.

The Demonic Blackiron Monkey's body swayed before it fell onto the ground, turning into sparkles of light that dissipated before gushing towards the Great Cliff King's body.

Outside the stage, the Kings were all dumbfounded at this sudden change of events. Even Mu Chen had astonishment on his face, since no one had expected the Great Cliff King, who seemed to be in a pathetic state, would endure till the last moment to use such a ferocious method to end the Demonic Blackiron Monkey…

On the stage, after the Great Cliff King had absorbed the Spiritual Energy essence, he staggered as he came down from the stage. Mandala had stretched out her hand and the Spiritual Energy had formed into a force that helped the Great Cliff King.

Clearly, he had also reached his limits after enduring the Demonic Blackiron Monkey's ferocious attacks with his exceeding defensive capabilities.

"This subordinate has not disappointed you."

The Great Cliff King made a grin with great difficulty.

"You've done well." Mandala gently said. This victory had exceeded all of their expectations. Thanks to the Great Cliff King having a good fortune. Despite the Demonic Blackiron Monkey excelling in speed, its attacks were rather weak. If it was any of the other beasts, then the Great Cliff King probably wouldn't even have the energy to speak right now.

"Then the game ends now, I'll break the array next." A golden light surged with a chill in Mandala's eyes. Watching her own subordinates risking their lives while she was neglected had started to enrage her.

Even if it would be great exhaustion to her, she had to destroy the azure bronze door!

Mandala took half a step forth with terrifying Spiritual Energy starting to gather in her palm.

But just when she was about to make a move, a silhouette had streaked past her, which held her arm and stopped her from gathering the Spiritual Energy.

When Mandala raised her head, she saw Mu Chen's youthful looks.

"Domain Ruler… as a King of the Great Havenlaw Domain, you cannot seize my qualification to fight." Mu Chen lightly smiled. He knew that Mandala didn't want him to make a futile effort. But at this point in time, he clearly couldn't back out as a King of the Great Havenlaw Domain.

"You…" Mandala was stunned as she looked at Mu Chen's eyes. The latter's gaze was still brilliant with resolution flowing in them, which made her understand that he did not rely on this sort of escape for him to come this far.

Mandala gently placed her hand down, before gently nodding her head. "Be cautious. If you cannot fight it, then back down."

Mu Chen nodded his head with a smile, before his silhouette had moved, charging up the stage and directed his sharp gaze towards a stone pillar with his figure straightened like a divine spear.

As for the last battle, let me see how challenging the so-called "ten ominous beasts" are!
