The Great Ruler

Chapter 947 - Worries

Above the ocean, each faction had retreated far away with each of them occupying one direction before dazzling lights blossomed, dying this region with colours.

In the camp of the Great Havenlaw Domain's party, Mu Chen and the rest exclaimed with surprise at this scene. Such a spectacular scene of seven Earth Sovereigns cultivating wasn't something you got to see every day.

He gradually retracted his gaze. There was only a purple light blossoming before him and at the centre of the purple light, he could vaguely see a petite silhouette.

Although Mandala did not intentionally let the pressure that came from her out, the terrifying surging of Spiritual Energy when she was cultivating was still emitting a terrifying Spiritual Energy pressure that made the experts of the Great Havenlaw Domain feel numbness on their scalps.

There were six of such similar lights in the distant sky!

Furthermore, as time passed, they could all feel the seven lustres swiftly expanding, causing space to distort in their path, clearly a sign that even space couldn't withstand that pressure.

The party of the Great Havenlaw Domain that wasn't far from Mandala had started to back off. Otherwise, they would be rendered immovable the moment the purple light enveloped them.

"This sort of cultivation is truly devouring the heavens and earth…" Nine Nether couldn't help sighing at this spectacular scene with expectations flashing in her eyes.

In the Great Thousand World, if anyone that could step into the Sovereign Realm could be known as an expert, then Earth Sovereigns were genuine colossi. With their strength, they could even enter into the top ranks amongst the top forces in the entire Great Thousand World.

This was what countless people had yearned for and that was also the case for the cool and cold Nine Nether.

"You will also reach this height, one day." Mu Chen stood beside Nine Nether as he lightly smiled.

Nine Nether had smiled as she slightly turned her head and looked at Mu Chen with a peculiar gaze. After the two years that the latter had stepped into the Great Havenlaw Domain, he seemed to have grown taller. Back then, when he left the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, Mu Chen was still a little unripe. But now, it had been gradually washed away from the brutal fights he had experienced.

Clearly, Mu Chen had also grown a lot in less than two years, which made Nine Nether have a peculiar emotion in her heart. It's as if she had witnessed the gradual growth of the youth that once required her protection exceeding herself and felt gratified.

"What's wrong?" Sensing Nine Nether's gaze, Mu Chen was stunned as he smiled.

"Right now, even I might not be able to win against you."

A charming smile lifted on Nine Nether's face. "Thinking back then, when we left the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, you're still a small fry that had not even refined your own Sovereign Celestial Body…"

But now, this small fry's name had already resounded throughout the Northern Region. Nine Nether wouldn't be surprised that after this Hunting War, and if they could still remain standing in the Northern Region, Mu Chen's fame would definitely exceed all the younger generations in the Northern Region to the point that even those of the older generations would feel fearful of him.

"It's almost two years…"

Mu Chen sighed. In less than two years, he had grown from a small fry that hadn't even refined his own Sovereign Celestial Body to a Fifth Grade Sovereign. It was so much so that he would even dare to face a Seventh Grade Sovereign with the power of Battle Will. Such an improvement made others sigh in admiration, but Mu Chen wasn't especially satisfied with it. That's because he knew that it was still far from sufficient…

That's because, back in the lush green and warming Spiritual Academy, he had solemnly told that girl that one day, he would become a supreme powerhouse…

Right now, he had clearly grown stronger, but it was still far from reaching the so-called "supreme powerhouse".

After witnessing the power of Earth Sovereigns, he knew how terrifying those existences were and the Luo God Clan, which Luo Li was residing in, would be even more dangerous than this Northern Region.

The power possessed by Luo Tianshen was even more powerful than the Earth Sovereigns present here!

If he wanted to go to the Luo God Clan, he would require the strength not to fear Luo Tianshen at the very least. That's because only by reaching that step, could he stand before the gorgeous and stubborn girl, blocking the storm for her…

Just that, that step was extremely distant.

Mu Chen slowly clenched his fist as resolution appeared on his face. Not only would those restrictions obstruct his path, it was also a boulder to grind his heart.

His path was certainly filled with danger as he trekked the path of life and death. Naturally, he also believed that perhaps others would deem his words of becoming a supreme powerhouse to be a joke. But right from the very start, that girl firmly believed in him. It was so much so that she even believed in him when he didn't believe in himself…that there would be a day when he would become a supreme powerhouse and appear before her.

Huff.

Mu Chen raised his head then sucked in a deep cold breath and his chaotic heart gradually calmed down. Then, the smile that hung on the corner of his lips had quietly turned even more confident and resolute.

Luo Li, wait for me.

When Nine Nether saw the changes in Mu Chen's eyes and seeing him restoring his self-confidence, she had also lightly smiled. Probably only Luo Li would be able to cause such ripples in that calm fellow.

"After this Hunting War, I might have to leave for a period of time." Nine Nether raised her hand to lift the hair before her forehead, then she suddenly said after a brief moment.

Mu Chen was stunned, before he asked, "Where are you going?"

"I am already a Sixth Grade Sovereign and have evolved into a Nine Netherworld Bird. I have to make a trip back to see if I can ignite by inheritance Bloodline…" Nine Nether winked towards Mu Chen as she smiled. "If I succeed, my strength will undergo a huge enhancement and at that time, you will be left behind by me."

Mu Chen stared at Nine Nether's charming face. Although she was smiling, Mu Chen could tell the unnatural emotions in her smile with his understanding of her.

There seemed to be an extremely hidden and deep worry.

"Is there any dangers of igniting the inheritance Bloodline? Or is there something else?" Mu Chen lightly asked.

Nine Nether was stunned, since she never thought that Mu Chen would be so sensitive to the changes in her emotions. She then pursed her lips and gently shook her head.

Looking at Nine Nether, Mu Chen's heart lightly shook as he said, "Is it because… of the Bloodlink Bond between us?"

If Nine Nether wanted to ignite her inheritance Bloodline, it's unavoidable for her own bloodline to be affected as well. Thus, the Bloodlink Bond between her and him would be easily noticed. Nine Nether not minding about it didn't mean that it was the same for her clansmen as well.

The Nine Netherworld Bird was a powerful and top-ranked Divine Beast, to begin with. If she underwent another evolution, then she would be a Supreme Divine Beast, comparable to Heavenly Sovereigns, genuine pinnacle figures in the Great Thousand World.

With Nine Nether's exceptional talent, and a rare genius within the Nine Netherbird Clan, her clan naturally had high hopes for her. If they knew that she had formed a Bloodlink Bond with a human with a mere cultivation of Fifth Grade Sovereign, they would definitely be enraged, which wouldn't be an easy matter to ease.

Nine Nether bit on her rosy lips, then gave Mu Chen a smile and said with resolution, "Rest assured, I will definitely not let them touch you!"

Mu Chen's brows tightly knitted together. He already knew that there would be some problems due to his Bloodlink Bond with Nine Nether, which was about to erupt at this moment.

"Big Sister Nine Nether, I am grateful for your protection for all these years… But this matter started due to me, so I will not let you face it alone." Mu Chen sucked in a deep breath as he looked at Nine Nether.

Nine Nether was stunned, before she raised her head and looked at Mu Chen. She saw the resolution in his eyes and the youthful face that was no longer unripe, along with a self-confidence that calmed the hearts of others.

Sensing the changes of emotion in her heart, Nine Nether couldn't help feeling a little gratified. The current Mu Chen was no longer that inexperienced youth and even she would sometimes become more confident because of him.

In less than two years after they left the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, the youth had genuinely grown up…

Nine Nether nodded her head, but did not speak a word. Her brows were also much more relaxed.

Mu Chen smiled and only after Nine Nether had shifted her gaze away, did his expression turn solemn. He knew how troublesome this matter would be.

But right now, it wasn't the time to be worried. The top priority now was to get through this. If Mandala couldn't finish her breakthrough and allowed the Divine Pavilion Master to do so, then their Great Havenlaw Domain would definitely be doomed. At that time, they would become stray dogs.

Facing the Nine Nether Bird Clan, Mandala would become one of his greatest backers. But if she couldn't get through this, then Mu Chen wouldn't even be qualified to talk to the Nine Nether Bird Clan and could only think of other methods.

Therefore, Mu Chen had to pray that Mandala would successfully make her breakthrough after using the Perfect Spiritual Divine Liquid!

Mu Chen's gaze pierced through the purple light that had a petite silhouette quietly seated within as the terrifying Spiritual Energy undulations swept out from her.

"Mandala… you must succeed…"
