“Netherworld Divine Flames of Destruction!”
Just as the Prince of Netherworld’s chilling voice rang out, black sparks of flames swept across the void. As they passed, spiritual energy froze and coagulated. The spiritual energy then transformed into black crystal fragments, integrating within the black flames, which caused its power to grow stronger.
Everyone looked at the black flames that were skimming across the sky. They watched, as all things that stood in front of the approaching flames would melt and integrate within them, becoming one with them.
“That’s a Top-Grade Divine Art from Netherworld Palace, and it has reached the Near Perfection Divine Art! Apparently, if this Divine Art has been perfected, within a radius of ten thousand miles, anything will be melted into its origin form of spiritual energy, then transform into the power of that dark flame!”
“It’s said that the Palace Master of Netherworld’s Palace had used it once, and that where the black flames passed, it had annihilated a powerful sect entirely, melting them down and devouring them.”
“Although this Prince of Netherworld is still not showing its full power, this force is strong enough that others, who are not at the same level, would fail to withstand it.”
Some powerful figures were sharp enough to recognize this technique. Hence, murmured whispers spread, as they were astonished that the Prince of Netherworld had chosen to use such a trump card.
After their astonishment began to subside, they then began to pity Mu Chen. Under such an attack, even the likes of Liu Yan, Su Biyue, and Snapper would certainly perish!
“I’m afraid that Mu Chen will lose.” Some sighed such sentiments as the latter, knowing that, under these circumstances, where the black flames swept across the skies, Mu Chen would be melted instantly. However, Fang Yi could persist for a while, and although it was for just a few moments, those few seconds could be crucial in this situation.
Once the Prince of Netherworld had dealt with Mu Chen and joined forces with Fang Yi, the outcome of this battle would be determined. In the other battlefield, which was now at a dangerous stalemate, Cai Xiao and Fang Yi’s attentions were drawn to the other battlefield. With a glance, both of their expressions changed.
Fang Yi’s expression was gleeful, while Cai Xiao’s face turned grave. They could both sense the overwhelming power of the Prince of Netherworld’s black flames.
An attack of such magnitude would be threatening to both of them, let alone to Mu Chen, who was only a Third Grade Sovereign. Although he had defeated Liu Yan, and others were afraid to belittle him, in comparison, the Prince of Netherworld was much more powerful than Liu Yan had ever been.
Fang Yi stood atop the Divine Lotus Throne, glancing towards Cai Xiao. He smiled faintly. “Looks like this is an unexpected outcome.”
As he spoke, he subtly activated the defense power of the Divine Lotus Throne in an attempt to withstand the devouring force of the colorful whirlpool. He was clearly hoping to buy some time, while distracting Cai Xiao.
However, this was just wishful thinking, as Cai Xiao stared at him coldly, and instead of weakening, the terrifying devouring force from the colorful whirlpool increased in intensity! This turn of events made Fang Yi frown, and he could only hurriedly activate his spiritual energy to resist.
After forcing Fang Yi to shut up, Cai Xiao then glanced towards Mu Chen’s direction, chewing on her lips. At this time, even she could not lend a hand to Mu Chen. He would have to rely solely upon his own strength.
“Mu Chen… You have to hang in there…” Cai Xiao clenched her fists and murmured. She knew that, should Mu Chen lose, her advantage would instantly vanish. Thus, she could only place her faith in Mu Chen.
Although she was unsure if Mu Chen could withstand such a powerful opponent as the Prince of Netherworld, she was hopeful that this young man just might be able to create miracles today.
Just as everyone was watching the scene unfold, a multitude of sighs and gasps rang out. Mu Chen, who stood atop the Great Solar Undying Body, was not despondent and terrified as they had thought he would be. Instead, his dark eyes had turned brighter and sharper.
The black flames rolled turbulently, charging over like a torrential black flood, as if nothing could stop them! Mu Chen could sense the terrifying spiritual energy fluctuations contained within the black flames, revealing to him that this Prince of Netherworld was a tough nut to crack indeed, and that his power far surpassed that of Liu Yan!
However, it was not so easy to annihilate Mu Chen, either! Mu Chen pursed his lips tightly, and his expression turned grave. Clasping his hands, he conjured up ancient strange seals. As the seals transformed, mysterious and profound chantings of Sanskrit scriptures rang out in the heavens and the earth.
At this point, many onlookers cast startled glances at his actions, clearly perceiving them to be a desperate strike back. However, it was really a brave counterattack!
Still, the outcome was not one that could be changed by courage alone. If Mu Chen failed to create a wondrous miracle again, this would be a hopeless ending indeed.
The chanting of Sanskrit continued to reverberate throughout the heavens. Mu Chen closed his eyes. Then, a dark purple spiritual light bloomed on his body, before converging and transforming into mysterious and enchanting purple petals.
