A high rank Diagram Array?
Mu Chen stared unsteadily at the black scroll within his hand. Although he could not determine the rank of this Diagram Array, it should be at least more powerful than a Rank 2 Spiritual Array.
If word comes out about this level of a Diagram Array, it would probably create madness among the Spiritual Array Masters within the Northern Spiritual Realm. In the eyes of Spiritual Array Masters, even rare worldly treasures wouldn’t be as attractive as this high rank Diagram Array.
Mu Chen wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth. Then, he walked towards Zhou Ye and Lei Shan as he waved the scroll: “Uncle Zhou, I want this as well.”
Zhou Ye and the others took the black scroll and looked over it back and forth. However, they did not see any clues from it. Thus, they smiled and handed it over to Mu Chen.
Mu Chen snickered when he accepted it. He knew that Zhou Ye and Lei Shan wouldn’t be able to see the mystery behind the black scroll. Otherwise, Yang Gui wouldn’t have casually discarded it at this place. The value of a high rank Spiritual Array was probably much higher than everything else inside this secret room.
As for how Mu Chen could see through the mystery of this black scroll, it was all because he could enter the Heart Array State. Otherwise, Mu Chen believed that even a Rank 2 Spiritual Array Master wouldn’t be able to discover the hidden Diagram Array within the black scroll even if they were looking at it.
The Heart Array State is something that only a Rank 3 Spiritual Array Master could enter. However, it was not absolute and only had a small probability. Not every single Rank 3 Spiritual Array Master would be able to enter the Heart Array State. Thus, it was a secret that couldn’t be unlocked by just anyone.
Mu Chen quickly put away the black scroll. When he headed back, he could research it a little. However, it was impossible for him to attempt arranging it with his current strength. Previously, his body had trembled just from the vicious aura emitting from the Diagram Array. If he attempted to arrange it forcibly, he would definitely die due to the backlash.
After he obtained the high-grade Diagram Array, Mu Chen did not have any other thoughts about the items within the secret room and allowed Zhou Ye and Lei Shan to divide the spoils of war. Then, they called their respective troops to transfer it back to their own territory.
“Leader Lei. Regarding this matter, it is all thanks to Nine Dragon City. If there is anything you need help with, please feel free to send some men over to the Mu Territory. We will definitely help you with the best of our abilities.” At the entrance of the Mang Yin Mountain Range, Zhou Ye cupped his hands towards Lei Shan and smiled as he led the Mu Territory’s troops.
“Haha. Brother Zhou, you’re being too polite. My Nine Dragon City will have to thank you. Once we settle the situation over here, we will definitely head over to the Mu Territory and pay a visit to Territory Lord Mu Feng!”
“Sure, farewell.”
Zhou Ye smiled. He did not delay it and waved his hands as he brought the large number of troops away. They quickly disappeared from Nine Dragon City’s line of sight…
News quickly spread out regarding the battle against Mang Yin Mountain. The destruction of Mang Yin Mountain shocked the Northern Spiritual Realm. After all, Mang Yin Mountain was the strongest underworld force within the Northern Spiritual Realm. Since it was now eradicated, it naturally attracted a lot of attention.
Especially when news about Yang Gui’s death came out. Numerous individuals were completely stunned when they heard this. A Spirit Stage powerhouse would actually be killed like this…
They really can’t provoke the Mu Territory.
Numerous large and small forces sighed. They naturally heard about Mang Yin Mountain attacking the Mu Territory and killing one of the Mu Territory’s City Lords. Although they knew that the Mu Territory would not just endure it, they never expected that the Mu Territory’s revenge would be enacted this quickly and this viciously…
Liu Territory, Within the Liu Estate.
Liu Qingtian sat at the seat of honor with an indifferent expression. Beside him was Liu Mubai while below him were Liu Zong and Liu Ming. However, both of them had an ugly expression at this moment.
“How did you fail?” Liu Qingtian glanced at the two of them and asked as he frowned.
“It’s all because of that little as*hole, Mu Chen.” Liu Ming gritted his teeth and said: “That brat could actually arrange a Spiritual Array whose power was comparable to a Rank 2 Spiritual Array. Together with Lei Shan, they killed Yang Gui.”
“Oh?” Liu Qingtian’s expression changed slightly. So Mu Chen could arrange such a powerful Spiritual Array? That brat really was a disaster. He actually improved so much in such a short period of time.
At the same time, Liu Mubai also gnashed his teeth secretly. A hint of jealousy and hatred flashed through the depths of his eyes. Unknowingly, the gap between Mu Chen and him had been pulled apart. How could his prideful self endure this?
“Big Brother, what should we do now? With the matter about Mang Yin Mountain, the Mu Territory’s reputation will definitely soar. Moreover, they also formed a close relationship with Nine Dragon City. This isn’t good news for us.” Liu Zong asked.
Liu Qingtian smiled calmly. However, a chill filled his eyes: “Why are you so impatient? We instructed Mang Yin Mountain to act in order to capture the Mu Territory’s attention. Our father is progressing smoothly with his training. He should be able to exit his secluded training after one month. When that happens, he will become the only Three Heavens Stage powerhouse in the Northern Spiritual Realm.”
“By that time, who will care about the Mu Territory? We will be able to easily destroy them. As for the other forces, it would be great if we could conquer them. However, if they’re unwilling, then we can just eliminate them.”
