Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy, back hill.
The area was enveloped in dense spiritual clouds. Majestic and vast spiritual energy whizzed through the air, and the sound of waves could be vaguely heard.
Mu Chen stood on a lush mountain peak, on which there was a stone lotus platform. It was connected to the only Eighth Rank Spiritual Convergence Array in the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy, and was considered to be the place in the academy where the spiritual energy was the strongest.
Generally speaking, this kind of place would not be open to students in the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy. However, at the moment, Mu Chen, to some extent, had exceeded three grades of the Spirit Disaster, and was already half a leg into the Sovereign level. His powers had far surpassed those of ordinary students.
In addition, he won the championship of the Spiritual Academy Competition for the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy. At present, Mu Chen’s status in the academy had reached an extremely high level that normal people were unlikely to obtain. The Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy would definitely fulfill his requests, as long as they were not too unreasonable.
Thus, opening the cultivation platform that was connected to the only Eighth Rank Spiritual Convergence Array was justifiable.
Mu Chen took a deep breath, and dense spiritual energy entered his body through his nose, bringing about a relaxing sensation. He sat down cross-legged. A light ray dashed out from his body and turned into a pretty figure beside him.
Nine Nether looked at Mu Chen and said, “You have basically opened up your sovereign sea today. However, your sovereign sea is empty and lacks spiritual energy. It is only a decoration.”
Mu Chen nodded. When he was fighting with Ji Xuan, he could use such an enormous power only because he filled his sovereign sea with the aid of the Great Meru Demonic Pillar. As for his own spiritual energy, even if all of it entered the sovereign sea, it would be a drop in the bucket.
Therefore, after the power of the Great Meru Demonic Pillar dissipated, his sovereign sea became empty. What he needed to do at the moment was to condense spiritual energy, and fill the sovereign sea completely. In that way, he would be really considered as having entered the Sovereign level.
Nine Nether sat down beside Mu Chen. Her perfect, slim legs curled slightly and she placed her chin on her knee. Then, she looked at Mu Chen and asked him in a low voice, “After you promote to the Sovereign level, what are your plans? I think that the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy will not be able to provide much help to you now. If you continue to stay here, you will probably never in your life be strong enough to go to the Luo God Clan.”
Mu Chen nodded slightly. Naturally he would know that if he really wanted to become stronger, he must not stay at the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy.
“We are bloodline bonded. You should also know some of my secrets… for example, this.” Mu Chen closed his hand. When he opened it, a piece of mysterious black paper appeared in his palm and began glowing faintly.
Seeing the mysterious black paper, Nine Nether’s body tightened uncontrollably. After all, she had suffered greatly in the past because of the black paper.
“Have you heard of the ‘Primordial Immortal Body?'” Mu Chen gazed with a scorching look at the Immortal Page in his hand and then smiled.
The Primordial Immortal Body.
When these four words appeared, Nine Nether raised her head abruptly and shock could be seen in her eyes. After a while, she slowly calmed down, but still said in a surprised tone, “The Primordial Immortal Body which was ranked fourth among the legendary 99 Sovereign Celestial Bodies in the world?”
Mu Chen nodded gently. Although the secret was extremely important, he totally trusted Nine Nether. After all, their lives were tied together.
“If I can obtain and successfully learn it, do you think that… I can become one of the top powers?” Mu Chen asked softly.
“Impossible!” Nine Nether said without hesitation.
“I can’t?” Mu Chen was stunned.
“No… I mean, it is impossible for you to learn the Primordial Immortal Body…” Nine Nether immediately shook her head. She stared at Mu Chen with a weird look and said, “Do you know what the Primordial Immortal Body means?”
This time, it was Mu Chen’s turn to feel puzzled. He only knew that the Primordial Immortal Body was ranked fourth and should be incredibly powerful, but did not know much about its other details.
“The Primordial Immortal Body is ranked fourth among the 99 Sovereign Celestial Bodies. But you probably do not know that it was one of the ten ‘Primitive Celestial Bodies’ in the ancient times,” Nine Nether said slowly.
“The ten ‘Primitive Celestial Bodies?'” Mu Chen was dazed, as he did not know what that was.
“These ten ‘Primitive Celestial Bodies’ are the strongest Sovereign Celestial Bodies in the world. You cannot imagine their powers. In the ancient times, there was a crisis brought about by an ‘extraterritorial race.’ At the start, the Great Thousand World retreated in defeat again and again, and countless lower planes were occupied by the extraterritorial race, until ten sovereign masters who cultivated the ten ‘Primitive Celestial Bodies’ appeared, and turned the defeat into a stable situation. However, when the catastrophe ended, the ten sovereign masters almost all passed away, and five ‘Primitive Celestial Bodies’ were totally destroyed. Even their cultivation methods were lost. Thus, only five ‘Primitive Celestial Bodies’ remained. Those are the top five Sovereign Celestial Bodies in the 99 Sovereign Celestial Bodies. Even so, I have never heard of anyone obtaining them. Therefore, the top five Sovereign Celestial Bodies have only existed as legends.
“The Primordial Immortal Body you have mentioned is one of them.”
Mu Chen was dumbstruck. He did not expect the Primordial Immortal Body to have such an incredible origin.
