Chapter 984 (2/2)

Boom!

With a blow of his palm, the Divine Seal suddenly burst out like a massive mountain carrying a shadow. It descended heavily upon Zong Huo as he hurriedly retreated.

Zong Huo’s expression twisted in fear as the shadow shrouded him. He could only gnash his teeth as he infused spiritual energy into both arms and then brutally clashed with the seal, trying to push it away.

Boom!

However, when his hands made contact with the Divine Seal, his legs turned into jelly. He knelt down, and his knees pierced through the rock, embedding deep into it. The sound of broken bones in his arms rang out as they twisted into a ghastly angle.

That Divine Seal was truly like the burden of a towering Divine Mountain. That kind of weight was something he would be unable to bear!

Whoosh!

Mu Chen’s figure appeared above the Divine Seal, then he stomped down heavily. Suddenly the waves in the air rolled as the entire Divine Seal sank in deeper, with Zong Huo in a miserable state below it. His arms were broken as blood spewed out, staining his clothes red. He was utterly humiliated.

Upon seeing this, Mu Chen did not show any mercy or pity. His eyes were cold as he was about to stomp heavily again and completely cripple Zong Huo.

However, Zong Huo seemed to sense Mu Chen’s murderous intent and dared not hesitate further. He roared, and suddenly scarlet flames swept through, forcefully lifting up the Divine Seal.

Boom!

His hands hit the ground as blood spattered. The blood was like fire, and in a flicker, his figure appeared outside, a thousand feet away, and then he fell outside the Escort Platform.

Spurt.

As his figure fell, he spurted out another mouthful of blood. His hair was in disarray, and his previous confidence was torn to shreds. The fear and panic in his eyes made him look like a dog who had been abandoned.

When Zong Huo’s figure flopped off of the Escort Platform, an uproar burst out in the region. Many strong people from all the clans were looking at Mu Chen with shock, their gazes flickering. Apparently, they had not expected the human being, who seemed to be no more than a Sixth Grade Sovereign, to be so troublesome to deal with.

Among the Heavenly Roc Clan, the faces of Liu Ching and the others became steely when Zong Huo was first crushed by Mu Chen. Now, their expressions showed utter disbelief and gloominess.

Who could have expected that the situation in which they originally thought they would attain sure victory would suddenly turn into this…

“This brat actually turned out to be a Heavenly Grade Spiritual Array Master. How well-concealed!” A strong man of the Heavenly Roc Clan clenched his teeth and looked at Mu Chen with a hint of fear and wariness. If a Heavenly Grade Spiritual Array Master was ready, they could kill a Seventh Grade Sovereign effortlessly.

Liu Ching clenched her fists and gnashed her teeth. Her expression was pale but steely with rage, and she could not say a word.

As the many shocked glances converged, Mu Chen, who was standing on the Escort Platform, was still composed. He stomped his foot, and the Divine Seal gradually dissipated.

At the same time, he also raised his head and looked at Zong Teng, who was still entangled in a confrontation with Nine Nether, and said nonchalantly, “If you want to continue to stay here, then don’t blame me for making my move.”

When his voice fell, spiritual lights flew out of his sleeve, quickly integrating into this world. Immediately, lines of light appeared. It seemed as if a powerful Heavenly Grade Spiritual Array was about to take shape in the very near future.

In the sky, Zong Teng felt the sharp murderous intention radiating from below. His eyes narrowed as his expression could not help but become steely. Immediately, he lowered his head and looked meaningfully at Mu Chen, saying coldly, “I have really underestimated you this time.”

He had never thought Mu Chen was worthy before, but now he had come to realize that the latter may be a more dangerous threat to him than Nine Nether. No wonder Nine Nether was so confident.

Mu Chen was indifferent, and his expression was calm. The spiritual runes became more apparent as an overwhelming spiritual energy fluctuation gradually formed and took shape.

Phew.

Zong Teng took a deep breath, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He was also a decisive man, knowing that in the face of Nine Nether and Mu Chen’s alliance, he did not have much chance of winning, so he immediately retreated.

“Your name is Mu Chen, right? I will remember it. If I have the chance, I will personally experience your Spiritual Array and hope that you will not disappoint me then.”

Zong Teng retreated, but his chilling voice was obviously extremely unwilling.

However, Mu Chen was not concerned about his threats. He looked up at Nine Nether and smiled, then looked away, glancing at the strong characters of the various clans who were covetous.

“Gentlemen, this Escort Platform belongs to I, Mu Chen. I wonder if any of you have any opinions?”

As he spoke, he flicked his finger. On the Escort Platform, there was a vast gathering of spiritual light, and among those numerous lines of light, no one knew exactly how many spiritual arrays were contained in them.

Those strong people of various clans saw the situation, and their eyes flashed, but eventually they gradually drew back. After all, there were ten Escort Platforms, and there was no need to struggle and challenge this terrifying opponent. Instead of taking the risk of fighting against Mu Chen and Nine Nether, it would be better to take advantage of the other Escort Platforms where a controller had not yet appeared.

After all, everyone knew that at present, the Escort Platform had basically been arranged as solid as gold. If they wanted to break through it forcefully, among the strong people present, there were very few people who had confidence they could achieve that feat.

Upon seeing this, Mu Chen’s heart heaved a quiet sigh of relief. Immediately, he looked up at Nine Nether and smiled gently. It seemed that no one would dare to fight for this Escort Platform now.

They had finally attained the quota for the Primordial Body-refining Tower.
