“Get lost!”
The creepy smile on Bai Bin’s face froze, and his expression turned cold when he heard a voice that rumbled like a clap of thunder. A frightening, cold aura exuded from his entire body. Layers of frost started to form on the ground. Bai Bin glared coldly at Mu Chen. He said slowly, “Cut your tongue. I’ll let you go.”
Mu Chen smiled. “Who do you think you are?” However, his smile could not conceal his mockery.
He could sense the danger from Bai Bin, and Mu Chen figured that he was from one of the phoenix clans. However, Mu Chen was not afraid of anyone. Since he had made enough enemies for himself, adding another one would not make any difference. Hence, he did not mind at all.
“Do you think you can protect them? You are courting your own death!” The corner of Bai Bin’s eyes twitched. Blood filled his eyes, and his cold face twisted. After all these years, this was the first time he had met someone who dared to look down on him. Furthermore, this person only had the strength of a Grade Six Sovereign!
Boom!
When Bai Bin finished speaking, extreme winter broke out, and the temperature dropped drastically. The moment Bai Bin opened his mouth, he breathed out a mouthful of icy blue mist. The mist transformed itself into a hideous ice dragon. Its body was surrounded by extreme coldness, and it moved in the air towards Mu Chen with the speed of lightning.
If any Grade Seven Sovereign had been caught in this coldness, their bodies would have been numbed. If the same thing happened to a Grade Six Sovereign, they might be turned into an ice sculpture.
However, Mu Chen had no intention of backing off, despite Bai Bin’s incoming attack. He circulated golden light on his body’s surface, and an indestructible aura was given off. He punched out, and the veins vibrated on his arm as if they were trying to escape from a cage. Daunting power was released.
Dong!
The two attacks collided hard. Mu Chen did not move an inch, but during the moment of impact, he could feel a stream of cold and poisonous energy continuously flowing into his body trying to freeze his spiritual energy.
However, Mu Chen did not mind that energy at all. At that split second, he circulated the real dragon and real phoenix runes on both his arms, and the stream of cold energy was dissipated entirely. The coldness in his body also disappeared immediately.
Without any expression on his face, golden light burst from Mu Chen’s body, and the power from his physical body burst out at once. A cracking sound was heard, and the body of the ice dragon slowly cracked and exploded into pieces of ice.
“How could this be possible?!” Bai Bin narrowed his eyes as the ice dragon shattered into pieces. The most formidable thing about this dragon was not the power it possessed, but the extreme cold energy that could invade anywhere. Previously, he had clearly sensed that the cold energy had entered Mu Chen’s body. How had he managed to activate his energy?
Is he immune to the cold energy? Bai Bin immediately ditched this ridiculous thought. He was a member of the Ice Phoenix Clan with inborn icy cold energy. The rest of the top powers of the same level from other clans would need to be cautious of it, so how could Mu Chen be immune to it?
Dong!
Mu Chen did not give him time to think. He stomped his foot hard. A crack started spreading itself from his feet. His body transformed into a golden light figure. Within the span of a breath, he appeared in front of Bai Bin like a ghost. The speed was so fast that it struck fear into him.
Bai Bin could not imagine that Mu Chen possessed such a surprising speed as a Grade Six Sovereign.
As the golden light appeared, Mu Chen shot out golden light from his eyes, too. He then struck his palm out. The palm contained not only all his physical strength, but also the powerful spiritual energy within his body.
It was a soft hit, yet the palm carried black and frightful space traces with it. This was a phenomenon that could only be triggered by formidable power.
The surrounding top powers were able to tell the good from the bad. Their expressions changed when they saw the palm attack. They could not believe it. The force of this palm would be too overwhelming for an ordinary Grade Seven Sovereign.
A frightful palm wind swept over. Bai Bin’s expression altered entirely. His eyes finally turned serious, and he no longer belittled Mu Chen, since he knew that this Grade Six Sovereign was quite hard to deal with.
However, he was past the point of no return now. Bai Bin did not regret this. Cold radiance surged in his eyes. He quickly formed his seals. Behind Bai Bin’s back, a huge ice phoenix was taking shape. The ice phoenix spread out its wings, and they protected him like an ice shield.
Boom!
The golden-lighted palm did not back off. It stuck hard on the ice phoenix’s wings. Visible impact waves rippled out, and the hard ground crumbled into pieces. The ice phoenix’s wings took the hit. Bai Bin was behind the wing’s shield, but he could clearly feel the daunting power of that blow. If he had been hit by that palm, he would have sustained massive injuries.
However, to have been forced to this stage by a Grade Six Sovereign… Bai Bin’s face looked rather dark. A killing intent flashed intensely in his eyes. Today, he shall torture Mu Chen!
