Chapter 684 - Battling four Sovereigns
The golden current flowed down from the majestic mountain peak, causing the entire heavens and earth to be dyed with brilliant golden light, which made the Spiritual Energy in this region to be violently boiling.
On this vast land, Mu Chen's figure came to a stop, his expression was calm as a chilling light circulated in his black pupils.
He slowly turned his head over, looking at the surroundings. His pupils were filled with golden light, even his line-of-sight suffered a little obstruction. However, he could still clearly sense the four cold fluctuations quietly pressing forth, filled with killing intent.
"Since you're already here, come out, then. Why hide like mice?"
A cold smile hung on the corner of Mu Chen's lips as his mocking voice rang out, "It's already four against one, are you guys perhaps still trying to preserve some face?"
When Mu Chen's voice rang out, the region was still quiet. However, the silence only lasted for ten breaths before the noise of footsteps resounded. Four figures slowly walked out from the golden light as they stood not too far away from Mu Chen.
The four of them wore clothes of a different colour. The patterns on their sleeves represented that they were from a different force, which evidently had some relations with the Blood Hawk Hall.
The four of them quietly stood as tremendous amounts of Spiritual Energy pressure spread out, even the ground beneath them slightly collapsed. Their cold gazes were fixed on Mu Chen like venomous snakes.
Mu Chen's black pupils were also focused on the four people. Judging from the Spiritual Energy fluctuations coming from them, the four of them were still First Grade Sovereigns, but they had probably achieved the pinnacle of that realm. Regarding strength, even amongst the Domain Lords of the Great Havenlaw Domain, they could be considered as the best.
To deal with him, the Blood Hawk King had spent quite a bit of thought.
Looks like it won't be easy for me to ascend the peak.
When Mu Chen was obstructed, innumerable gazes from beneath the Goldpond Peak were also directed at the Spiritual Energy light screen with him in it. Clearly, they had sensed the situation Mu Chen was facing as well.
When they saw the four people standing before Mu Chen, many people had a smear of astonishment flashing across their eyes, along with resounding murmurs and whispers.
"Those four... seem to be the heads of the Four Valleys of Mt Mang. Judging from this situation, they're actually going to deal with the new Domain Lord of the Nine Nether Palace..."
"Heh, the Four Valleys of Mt Mang seem to have a pretty good relationship with the Blood Hawk Hall. Blood Hawk King is clearly trying to oppress the Nine Nether Palace, not giving them a single chance."
"Yeah, those four heads have been in the First Grade Sovereign Realm for a long time, even among the Domain Lords of the Great Havenlaw Domain, they can be considered as the best. If those four join hands, that Mu Chen's situation might not be too positive."
"..."
Along with many fine murmurs and whispers, there were many gazes directed at the direction of the Nine Nether Palace. There were some pity and sympathy in their eyes. Clearly, there wasn't any lacking in those that rejoiced from other people's misfortune.
Aside from those gazes, there wasn't any expression written on Nine Nether's face. Her pupils were staring at the Spiritual Energy light screen as a chill flowed in the depths of her eyes.
Beside her, Tang Rou's face was filled with nervousness, while Tang Bing had clenched her teeth with her palm filled with sweat. She naturally understood how dangerous Mu Chen's current situation was.
"Those are the four heads of the Four Valleys of Mt Mang, those four bastards!" Tang Bing said as she gritted her teeth.
"Remember them." Nine Nether lightly dropped her gaze as she said in a calm voice. But Tang Bing sensed the anger and killing intent hidden in her words. Clearly, the Nine Nether King had already hated the Four Valleys of Mt Mang in her heart.
Tang Bing lightly nodded her head. If there was an opportunity, she would definitely not let the Four Valleys of Mt Mang off.
"Big Sister Nine Nether, will Mu Chen be fine?" Tang Rou couldn't help asking out of worry. Although she knew that Mu Chen was capable, the four opponents that he was facing weren't easy.
Nine Nether's slender eyes focused on the Spiritual Energy light screen. The youth maintained a calm expression, that attitude of his made her smile, since he was no longer the soft and tender fellow that she could easily scare back then...
"He will emerge victorious."
Seated on the King Throne, she elegantly crossed her long legs as she lightly turned her head over. Her elbow was resting against the armrest, while her hand propped up her cheek. She pulled her hair back as dense self-confidence circulated in her wild-filled eyes.
Tang Bing and Tang Rou exchanged a glance. Although they were unsure why Nine Nether would have such confidence in Mu Chen, their tensed hearts had also eased up based on their trust for Nine Nether.
...
In the empty land, the five silhouettes had already become the focus of attention of innumerable people. But they pretended as if they had not seen it, except that the air was filled with dense killing intent.
The four figures were rather skinny. There was one that was particularly outstanding. His skinny frame made him look like a skeleton, but deep in his pupils, there was an eerie light similar to that of a venomous snake.
"You must be Mu Chen..."
He looked at Mu Chen. His dried-up face pulled a savage smirk as he said in a hoarse voice, "Your steps stop here, someone does not wish for you to go up."
A black-clothed man next to him was coldly looking at Mu Chen."We do not wish to kill you, since we do not wish to offend the Nine Nether Palace. However... if you are stubborn, this Goldpond Peak is also a pretty good burial site."
Looking at the four people before him, Mu Chen slightly lowered his gaze."If you guys don't get lost, you won't have any more chances to do so."
When his calm voice rang out, it made the four people before him stunned for a brief moment, before strange smiles appeared on their faces. The savageness in their eyes grew even denser.
"What an interesting fellow..."
"Then, we're going to kill?"
"Yeah..."
The savage smiles hanging on the four people's lips grew denser, and in the next instant, the four figures quietly disappeared.
Whoosh!
When they disappeared, space around Mu Chen fluctuated as four figures mysteriously appeared. Four dried-up hands that were similar to the hands of the death god swiftly shot at Mu Chen's vitals, along with the aura of death.
The four of them were vicious the moment they attacked. They didn't have any intentions to fight one-on-one, since they chose to deal with Mu Chen as swiftly as possible.
Boom!
The palms of those four swiftly landed against Mu Chen. However, when their palms fell on the latter, their dried-up faces slightly changed.
That's because their palms passed through Mu Chen's figure.
"An afterimage?"
The eyes of the four Sovereigns narrowed. Mu Chen's speed was actually faster than them?!
Boom!
Heavy thunder abruptly rang out as a flash of lightning seemed to have streaked across the corner of the four people's eyes. After that, the lightning became even more brilliant as four large palms that looked to be forged with lightning aiming for the vital spots behind the four people.
That retaliation was incredibly bizarre. It was so much so that it even made those four well-experienced Sovereigns to sink their expressions. Their sleeves hastily trembled as boundless Spiritual Energy formed into a light screen behind them.
Boom!
The lightning palms exploded the light screen in a single blow. But in that short moment of obstruction, four figures swiftly flew away as they dodged the sharp attack.
The four people retreated as their dried-up faces turned a little more grave. The killing intent in their eyes had also grown denser.
"A pretty quick reaction speed."
Lightning converged in the sky, forming into Mu Chen's figure. Right now, his body was as radiant as silver. Clearly, he had pushed the Lightning God's Physique to the limits as he stared at those four with a weird smile.
After using the Lightning God's Physique, he had achieved an astonishing speed. But he never expected that those four would still be able to dodge him. Looks like their battle senses aren't weak.
The four Sovereigns held cold gazes as they stared at Mu Chen. Shortly after, they inhaled deep breaths as their hands formed seals. In an instant, a visible Spiritual Energy hurricane exploded.
Circles of Spiritual Energy violently fluctuated as four massive light figures swiftly formed around those four people.
"Dead Tree Celestial Body!"
Along with those resounding cold voices, four light figures swiftly formed around those four people. They were actually four identical large figures. Clearly, the four of them had refined the same Sovereign Celestial Body.
Four Sovereign Celestial Bodies stood between the heavens and earth like giants. The four Sovereign Celestial Bodies were greyish-black in colour. Looking from afar, they seemed like dead trees that stood in the region, emitting deathly auras.
As the four Sovereign Celestial Bodies breathed, the Spiritual Energy turned into gales as they whistled in this region. That commotion attracted the gazes of every single expert on the Goldpond Peak with traces of astonishment and graveness in them.
"Since you refuse a toast, then hand over your life!"
The four Sovereign Celestial Bodies shot furious gazes at Mu Chen as eerie voices rang out like thunder in this region. Shortly after, four huge palms were sent over, covering the sun as they shrouded this mountain forest.
Boom!
Before the palms even landed, the earth had already started to crumble.
Although the Dead Tree Celestial Body wasn't amongst the 99 Rankings of Sovereign Celestial Bodies, the intimidation created when the four Sovereign Celestial Bodies appeared wasn't ordinary.
A terrifying Spiritual Energy pressure fell from the sky as Mu Chen's figure was sent down to the ground. He raised his head. A large greyish-black palm was reflected in his black pupils as a chill appeared on the corner of his lips.
Mu Chen clenched both his of fists as the space behind him distorted. His Sovereign Sea appeared with a whistle, causing the temperature in this region to explosively rise in an instant. His black pupils had also slowly changed colours.
"You people are still not qualified to take my life!"
The youth's figure was like a spear as his cold voice rang across the horizon.
