The Great Ruler

Chapter 933 - The Fourth Palace Master

Above the massive ocean hovered the ancient rock island with experts all around it. Especially, the seven silhouettes. Although they didn't have any Spiritual Energy fluctuations around them, everyone was clear that if they made their move, it would definitely be a disaster.

Seven Earth Sovereign Realm powerhouses, this was the most luxurious formation that Mu Chen had seen.

At this moment, all seven peak forces have assembled.

As the seven Earth Sovereigns were confronting one another, the experts of the peak forces did not dare to speak. The faint oppression that emanated from the seven of them made everyone feel a little suffocating.

Clearly, only Earth Sovereign Realm powerhouses could be qualified to gain control of this situation.

Mu Chen and Nine Nether exchanged a look and had inwardly smacked their lips, since they had clearly been startled in their hearts by this formation.

"Haha. I did not expect all of us to set the same target in this Hunting War." But the silence did not last long. The Pavilion Master of the Divine Pavilion took the initiative to speak out.

"The Earth Sovereign Realm Treasury left by the Fourth Palace Master holds the most treasure. We didn't have any results searching for it in the past. But now that it has appeared, we would naturally come to try our luck with it." In the camp of the Myriad Saint Peak, the Myriad Saint Ancestor faintly smiled and his aged voice rang out like a bell in this region, which caused the Spiritual Energy to undulate.

The Divine Pavilion Master squinted his eyes, as if there was a world of magma in his crimson eyes. Under that dazzling gaze that contained a power that could destroy the world, he gently smiled. "Amongst everyone, I am the one that is closest to the Greater Earth Sovereign Realm. As long as I can obtain the Spiritual Divine Liquid left by the Fourth Palace Master, it'd be easy for me to make my breakthrough. Whereas everyone else is at risk since your foundations are still insufficient."

When the Divine Pavilion Master's words rang out, the other rulers of the peak forces had their faces turning solemn, before the former casually said, "If everyone here is willing to part, then not only will the Northern Region be under our control after my breakthrough, territories beyond the Northern Region will also belong to us. The Greatlaw Continent is vast, and shouldn't everyone here put your sight away from this?"

Facing the Divine Pavilion Master's words, the six Earth Sovereigns had their gaze lightly flickered, but they did not speak. With their characters, they naturally wouldn't change their minds just because of the Divine Pavilion Master's words.

"What a fine calculation from your Divine Pavilion. But in this world, we can only believe in ourselves. Therefore, don't think of me letting you have the Spiritual Divine Liquid. We will depend on our own capabilities to compete." In the camp of the Demon Gate, the black-armoured and robust Demon Emperor slowly spoke out after briefly pondering.

"Hiss. Hiss. It'sss jussst that after you make your breakthrough, your appetite will probably not be sssatisfied and will also want to devour usss. Although I am old, I am not ssstupid to nurture a tiger to threaten me." The Sky Serpent Old Ghost of the Serpent God Palace hissed out with a hoarse voice.

Two Earth Sovereign Realm powerhouses had declared their stance, rejecting the offer from the Divine Pavilion Master. As for the other Earth Sovereigns, they were in a dilemma.

"What a pity, then." The Divine Pavilion Master smiled but he wasn't angered. But his pupils, which seemed to have a world of magma hidden within them, had turned even more blazing.

"Cut the crap. We'll speak about the belongings of the Spiritual Divine Liquid after we find it!" Mandala's golden pupils were directed towards the rock island, which was emitting an ancient aura, as she continued, "The Spiritual Divine Liquid should be on that rock island. But it won't be so easy to ascend that rock island."

Hearing Mandala bringing the topic back, the remaining six Earth Sovereigns had also shifted their gazes towards that ancient rock island, before their gazes slightly narrowed. Based on their extraordinary perceptions, they could naturally sense that the rock island wasn't so simple.

"The spatial law around the rock island has been enhanced. Furthermore, I can sense a powerful energy guarding it." The Sky Profound Palace's Liu Tiandao slowly opened his mouth.

"We'll know after trying." The Netherworld Palace's Palace Master abruptly lifted his hand and a terrifying Spiritual Energy burst out like a storm, then instantly formed into a myriad-feet black hand. Looking from afar, that hand looked like it was formed with black crystals and the whistling state had directly caused a major crack in the ocean down below.

A casual move from the Netherworld Palace's Palace Master had displayed the power of an Earth Sovereign. Even the Sky Vulture Emperor… no, even the Sleeping Emperor, who was a Ninth Grade Sovereign, would instantly be heavily injured by such an attack.

Rumble!

The dark hand pressed down from the sky with a momentum that would make any obstructions that were before it reduce to ashes. However, such an attack could not cause the rock island to shake.

Under their gazes, the black hand swiftly approached the rock island. It only took a single breath and it was already only a thousand feet away.

However, in that moment when it approached, rays of light suddenly shot out from the sky of the rock island. As those rays of light intertwined, they had formed into a crystallised barrier that had enveloped the rock island within.

Boom! Boom!

The black hand heavily smashed against the crystallised barrier, which instantly caused the Spiritual Energy to roll with visible shock waves spreading out, enveloping the surrounding few myriad feet within it.

But when the shock waves approached the seven Earth Sovereigns, they had immediately dissipated, which caused those behind them to be safe from any harm.

As the shock waves spread out, everyone had directed their gazes over and their faces immediately changed. That's because they had realised that after suffering an attack from the Netherworld Palace's Palace Master, the crystallised barrier was still standing!

"What terrifying defensive capabilities." Mu Chen and the rest exclaimed. Just this crystallised barrier alone could probably obstruct any expert beneath the Earth Sovereign Realm.

"Truly fascinating." The Netherworld Palace's Palace Master said faintly. However, he wasn't surprised by it. If the defences left behind by the Fourth Palace Master could be easily destroyed, then that would be surprising instead.

"Since everyone wants to compete for treasures, then let us all make our move together to destroy it." Mandala stared at the crystallised barrier for a long while, before speaking out.

The remaining six Earth Sovereigns had exchanged a look and nodded their heads. With their cautiousness, they naturally wouldn't be stupid and be the one standing out and waste the energy of a person to break the array, which would benefit the others. So at this point in time, it was better for them to make their move at the same time.

After coming to an agreement, the seven of them did not delay and rose up into the sky before hovering around the ancient rock island.

When Mu Chen and the rest had seen that, they had all retreated as well. The attacks launched by seven Earth Sovereign Realm powerhouses would definitely be a great disaster. So if they were careless and became affected by the shock wave, then they wouldn't be able to tell their grievances.

Along with their retreat, the seven Earth Sovereigns had slowly lifted their hands. At that moment, Mu Chen and the rest could sense the Spiritual Energy in this region boiling like a dryer.

Massive amounts of Spiritual Energy were whistling at the rears of the seven of them. Looking from afar, it was like seven massive suns that had risen from their rears. It was the sign of a terrifying amount of Spiritual Energy being gathered together.

Boom!

The seven of them did not delay and had circulated the Spiritual Energy, then threw a palm down!

Crack!

As the seven Spiritual Energies struck down, space had shattered in their path and fragments of space were endlessly dancing around.

Rumble!

Seven forces of Spiritual Energy pierced through space like huge dragons. It only took an instant before they arrived above the rock island and ruthlessly crashed against the crystallised barrier.

In the next instant of collision, the entire region was silent for an instant, before a hurricane swept out…

Myriad feet of waves lifted on the ocean down below, which swept out in rustles, causing the space in its path to shatter.

Mu Chen and the rest had retreated a great distance back. However, their faces had still turned pale from the shock waves before they had executed their various means to stabilise their silhouettes.

When they stabilised themselves, they exchanged looks and saw the shock in each other's eyes. This was the power of Earth Sovereign Realm powerhouses? The power that could cause great destruction?

If they had really fought for real, then this space would probably not be able to bear it.

"Such a terrifying attack should have destroyed the barrier left by the Fourth Palace Master, right?" Everyone had such a thought flashing through their minds, before directing their gazes onto the rock island. Thereafter, they had narrowed their pupils, before they sucked in cold breaths.

That's because the rock island still hovered in the distant sky with a dazzling lustre emitting from the crystallised barrier without showing any signs of shattering.

That crystallised barrier was actually fine from the attacks from seven Earth Sovereigns!

Now, not only had their faces changed, even the seven Earth Sovereigns had knitted their brows together, bit by bit, as they had sensed something unusual from it.

"Looks like this place is a little abnormal." Mandala said solemnly.

The Divine Pavilion Master tightly furrowed his brows, before squinting them a brief moment later and looked at the crystallised barrier. A lustre suddenly flashed on it and had slowly started to gather.

Mandala and the rest had also noticed that and had immediately looked over.

A light had swiftly gathered on the crystallised barrier and everyone was slightly stunned. Before they could even exclaim out, the faces of Mandala and the rest had suddenly changed.

Thereafter, they had heard the shock of exclamation from the Divine Pavilion Master. His heart had jolted and he immediately felt numb.

"The… the Fourth Palace Master?!"
