Mu Chen was stunned for a moment when he heard the voice. After a while, he recollected himself and muttered in disbelief, “You… Nine Nether? Have you come around?”

However, there was no reply. His heart sank. Is this an illusion?

“Hahaha, you seem to have missed me.” As Mu Chen was feeling disappointed, a playful laughter sounded again.

Mu Chen rolled his eyes and heaved a sigh of relief. Nine Nether had slept for about two years, and now finally, had come around…

“You have finally awakened,” Mu Chen said and smiled wryly.

“What to do? You are about to lose your life. I do not want to die with you on the day that I have completed evolving,” Nine Nether said with a smile.

Mu Chen curled his lips. His relationship with Nine Nether was extremely complex. They had been bound by bloodline. To a certain degree, they had an extremely intimate relationship. Although most of the time Nine Nether was in a deep sleep, they were very close to each other.

“Looks like you are having a serious problem.” Nine Nether smiled. Although they were communicating inwardly, Mu Chen could sense a picture flashing across his heart. A girl in black was sitting on a huge black egg that had cracked, gently shaking her long slender legs. She tore a piece of eggshell and put it into her mouth. She looked wild and beautiful, and was basking in her eggshells.

“It is an Ancient Dragonhawk. Its strength is at Grade Four Sovereign.”

Mu Chen nodded and asked softly, “Are you able to handle it?”

Nine Nether rested her palms on her cheeks and said lazily, “It is just a shaggy bird that is unable to transform itself. It is able to reach the Sovereign-level simply because it has lived a long time. But, Spiritual Beasts are still spiritual beasts. It is unable to evolve and it basically stops here.”

“Which rank are you now in the Sovereign-level?” Mu Chen asked cautiously.

“Hmm, around Grade Four,” Nine Nether said and smiled.

“Grade Four Sovereign?” Mu Chen gasped and was stunned. The Ancient Dragonhawk had cultivated for so many years to reach Grade Four Sovereign. However, Nine Nether had gone into a deep sleep for less than two years, and she had advanced to such a high level. He could vividly recall that before Nine Nether had completely evolved, her strength was comparable to his.

“I am the most extraordinary talent in my Nine Netherbird Clan in these 1,000 years. My blood is the purest. Don’t you ever compare me to the shaggy bird,” Nine Nether said lazily. She did not find it shocking, just as a matter-of-fact.

Mu Chen kept mum. If he had said it out loud, those people who had thought highly of themselves would not have been able to take it.

“This fella is also at Grade Four Sovereign… can you handle it?” Mu Chen asked.

“Under the same rank, a divine beast triumphs over a spiritual beast,” Nine Nether said casually.

“Powerful!” Mu Chen said with admiration.

“I will lend you my power for the time being. It depends on how much you can take.” Nine Nether swallowed the last piece of eggshell and gently patted her hands. She formed a seal with her hands and purple flame swirled out. A terrifying spiritual energy fluctuation exploded.

Mu Chen stood motionless on the collapsed battle stage. He looked dazed as he was communicating inwardly with Nine Nether.

“It seems like you have given up.”

Ji Xuan stood in the air and slanted his head to look at Mu Chen. He said with a smile, “In this case, I shall let you experience what it is like to be devastated. The confidence that you have shall no longer exist.”

Upon saying this, Ji Xuan looked even more vicious and ruthless. He stepped forth and his ghostly figure appeared before Mu Chen. He laughed softly and lifted his sharp nails, which were filled with purple lights. He tore the space apart and pointed his sharp nails at Mu Chen’s heart.

This was a venomous attack.

Many disciples could not bear the sight and looked away. The disciples from the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy turned pale.

“It is over!” Ji Xuan laughed viciously. Purple lights were getting brighter on his fingers, and the wind that blustered around his fingers was so strong, it could tear apart anything that came in its way.

His fingers whizzed past and landed on Mu Chen’s chest with lightning speed.

Swish!

There was an abrupt sound, and those who were staring at the battle stage suddenly looked stunned.

Ji Xuan, looking vicious, suddenly changed his expression. He stared in disbelief. Mu Chen had stretched forth two fingers and gently caught the ferocious fingers that were blustering with wind. The action looked weak, but it had stopped Ji Xuan from moving forward.
