Chapter 689 - Battle Between New and Old Domain Lords
Under the countless amounts of attention, Cao Feng slowly strode forth. With every step he took, Spiritual Energy fluctuations spread out from his body as they grew at an astonishing speed.
In just three steps, his Spiritual Energy fluctuations had already surpassed the pinnacle of First Grade Sovereign Realm!
Those Spiritual Energy fluctuations were stronger than any opponent Mu Chen had faced in on the Goldpond Peak!
As Cao Feng steadied his steps with a mocking smile hung on the corner of his lips, his Spiritual Energy fluctuations stabilised at Second Grade Sovereign. That powerful Spiritual Energy pressure seemed like it could envelop the entire Greatlaw Goldstage.
Cao Feng had actually stepped into Second Grade Sovereign Realm!
Beneath the Goldpond Peak, countless exclamations resounded. No wonder Cao Feng wasn't afraid of Mu Chen's challenge. He had already made his breakthrough to Second Grade Sovereign Realm.
Tang Bing and Tang Rou couldn't help their faces changing expressions, since they were well-aware that the gap between each grade of the Sovereign Realm was enormous. It wasn't an easy task to make up for that distance.
"Big Sister, Mu Chen will not lose, right?" Tang Rou pulled Tang Bing's hand as she softly asked. If Mu Chen lost this round, the name of their Nine Nether Palace would probably suffer a great fall. At that time, the Blood Hawk King would raise the old topic in an attempt to dissolve their Nine Nether Palace again.
Tang Bing slightly hesitated as she gritted her teeth shortly after."That fellow Mu Chen isn't a fool. I believe that he must have already expected it. If he didn't have any methods to deal with Cao Feng, he would not be looking so confident right now."
At this point in time, there was no other way except to believe in Mu Chen.
Hearing her words, Nine Nether couldn't help smiling, "Xiao Bing'er, you finally have some confidence for him."
Tang Bing's face turned a little red as she toughed it out."I'm thinking for our Nine Nether Palace. Furthermore, he was so arrogant in front of me earlier. If he loses the fight, watch how I will deal with him!"
A faint smile rose on Nine Nether's cool and elegant face as she looked at the light screen. Her slender eyes were staring at the two silhouettes facing off as she said in a light voice, "Rest assured... A single Cao Feng isn't enough to obstruct him..."
...
Cao Feng stood in the centre of the Greatlaw Goldstage. His gaze was slightly looking down as he stared at Mu Chen. The strength of a Second Grade Sovereign gave him confidence.
Within the Blood Hawk Hall, he had always been low-profile. The whole time, Wu Tian was making decisions for the majority of the matters as he concealed himself. Probably aside from Blood Hawk King, there weren't many people that were aware of the fact that he wasn't any weaker than Wu Tian right now. Furthermore, he knew how to endure even more than Wu Tian. If it wasn't for Mu Chen, he might have continued to conceal his strength and wait for a day when he could overturn the three people ranked before him...
"I originally didn't intend to reveal my strength..."
The tremendous Spiritual Energy fluctuations around Cao Feng caused space to surge as it shook layers of visible ripples. He was looking at Mu Chen with indifference as he said, "But as a former Domain Lord of the Nine Nether Palace, I believe I have the need to test whether you are qualified to be the new Domain Lord."
Mu Chen lightly frowned his brows as he stared at Cao Feng and slowly said, "I hope that such words will not be coming out of you in the future. You are no longer qualified to have any relations to the Nine Nether Palace."
He paused his speech for a brief moment, before he continued, "Also, I have something to tell you... a fellow like you is truly an ungrateful bastard. So, this time, I will only want an arm from you. Although it will dirty my hands, you have to give an explanation to the thousand brothers in the Nine Nether Troop."
When Mu Chen's calm voice spread out on the Greatlaw Goldstage, it left all five people stunned, even Xu Qing and Zhou Yue had an astonished gaze.
They were blankly looking at the youth who held a calm expression. They couldn't believe that such an arrogant speech would come from a gentle-looking youth.
His words sounded as if Cao Feng was already a fish on the chopping board and allowed him to slaughter as he wished. Didn't he see that Cao Feng had already reached the Second Grade Sovereign Realm?
Even if he could display impressive fighting strength, he absolutely didn't have the qualifications to boast of such words before a Second Grade Sovereign!
"Haha... How interesting." Wu Tian was looking at Mu Chen with a weird gaze and couldn't help letting out a bizarre laughter. Is the new Domain Lord of the Nine Nether Palace stupid to such an extent?
Cao Feng was also looking at Mu Chen with a cold gaze. The indifference on his face was already gone and his lips were slightly trembling. His gaze gradually turned savage.
"Haha..."
Cao Feng coldly laughed from the gap between his teeth. He laughed due to the extreme anger towards Mu Chen's words. This was the first time that he had encountered such a rampant fellow after all these years.
He was just trying to humiliate Mu Chen with his previous words, but he never expected that the latter's words would be even more shocking. From that appearance, Mu Chen basically did not treat him as any threat at all.
"Looks like the new Domain Lord that Lady Nine Nether has brought back is truly a disappointment."
Mu Chen frowned his brows again as he stared at Cao Feng."Two hands."
"Reckless fool!"
Even with Cao Feng's firmness, he could no longer endure Mu Chen's words. He let out a savage laughter and flew over shortly after. I will first turn this stinking brat into a cripple and see if he still dares to speak such stupid words.
Rustle!
Cao Feng acted out in anger as he mysteriously appeared before Mu Chen. There wasn't any hesitation in him as he threw a fist forth. Spiritual Energy that was similar to a torrential ocean swept out as it blew towards Mu Chen.
The strength of a Second Grade Sovereign was instantly exploded by him in a single fist.
That fist was sufficient to defeat any opponent at the level of First Grade Sovereign.
The fist violently whistled along with an ocean of Spiritual Energy. The golden stage was trembling due to it. Clearly, Cao Feng had not held back in the slightest.
The fist grew in Mu Chen's black pupils, but he didn't show any trace of retreating. Both of his hands hugged the empty space and his gaze suddenly turned scarlet as a torrential ominous aura swept out.
Boom!
The Great Meru Demonic Pillar had directly appeared between Mu Chen's arms and was abruptly swung by him and heavily clashed with that ferocious fist.
Boom!
The two forces clashed as a heavy sound exploded. Visible shock waves violently swept out as they wreaked havoc. There were also fine cracks appearing on the golden stage.
Even Xu Qing and Zhou Yue had narrowed their eyes from that shock wave.
Boom!
Two figures abruptly shot out from the location where the Spiritual Energy shock waves were violently wreaking havoc.
The Great Meru Demonic Pillar abruptly rotated in Mu Chen's hands as it heavily smashed onto the ground. He was supporting the pillar with a single hand as it forcefully stabilised his body. After that, he raised his head as he looked at Cao Feng, who wasn't too far away and had a dark expression on his face at this moment.
"Second Grade Sovereign, just so-so."
Mu Chen calmly said. Although his strength was merely at the First Grade Sovereign, his Spiritual Energy had fused with the Undying Flames, so regarding quality, it would definitely be more powerful than Cao Feng. In addition to the power of the Great Meru Demonic Pillar, he wouldn't be at a disadvantage even if they were to face off.
"You're not afraid that you won't be able to come back from those words later?" Cao Feng mocked with a smile as his gaze grew even eerier. Shortly after, he abruptly grasped his hand as tremendous spiritual light swept out. A scarlet longspear appeared in his hand. The body of that longspear was similar to that of blood, as if it had been dyed in endless amounts of blood, holding a sinister aura. The tip of the spear was a scarlet hawkeye that looked extremely weird.
"This is the Blood Hawk Spear of the Blood Hawk Hall, it's a Middle Rank Divine Artifact. The priced treasure of the Blood Hawk Hall. The Blood Hawk King was truly willing to part with it, to give such a Divine Artifact to Cao Feng." Seeing that scarlet longspear, Tang Bing's heart tightened as she spoke.
Next to her, Tang Rou's face was also filled with worry and nervousness.
With the Blood Hawk Spear in his hand, Cao Feng's grandeur grew even more powerful. The body of the spear trembled as a piercing hawk cry rang across the horizon. A bloody light fluctuated as if it was going to tear the horizon.
Rustle!
Cao Feng's figure flew out, turning into numerous afterimages while the spear images had turned into a storm of bloody rain, enveloping Mu Chen, as a killing aura swept out.
Mu Chen took half a step back and the Great Meru Demonic Pillar whistled as the massive body of the pillar swept out, receiving all those spear images.
Ding! Ding! Clang! Clang!
The two of them clashed like lightning as sparks flew. Every single collision would cause an astonishing Spiritual Energy shock wave to explode. Even space was a little distorted due to that.
The two of them did not adopt any defensive measures. The both of them were fully attacking, which was extremely irritant to the eyes.
Countless people had widened their eyes to watch the two blurry figures. There was a clear-cut space around those two. No matter how ferocious the attacks of the other party were, they could not penetrate through that space.
Many people had astonishment surfacing in their eyes as they realised that the Cao Feng, who had the upper hand regarding strength, could not gain any advantage from the clash.
Cao Feng had naturally sensed this point and his gaze grew even eerier. The tip of his feet tapped on the ground as his figure flew towards the horizon. The Blood Hawk Spear in his hand exploded with myriads of blood light and an ear-piercing hawk cry rang out across the horizon.
"Hawk Spear - Hawk Rips Space!"
A bloody light shot out as a blood hawk a hundred feet high flew out from the longspear, unfolded its wings, and fused with the sharp spear light. Then swiftly shrouded towards Mu Chen at lightning speed.
"Die!" Cao Feng coldly barked as his voice resounded in the sky.
Mu Chen raised his head as he looked at the sharp attack. Sharpness started to converge in his black eyes as well. He inhaled a deep breath as he heavily smashed the Great Meru Demonic Pillar on the ground and the demonic runes that looked to be from the primordial times lit up on the ancient demonic pillar.
In the next instant, an indescribable ominous aura spread out between the heavens and earth. It was as if an ancient demonic object had awakened, causing the faces of countless people to change.
The scarlet in Mu Chen's eyes grew as a deep voice rang from his heart.
"Great Meru Demonic Pillar - Dilating Demonic Runes!"
