Upon the vast ocean, majestic spiritual energy fell from the sky like a rainbow forming colorful streams of ribbons. Mu Chen stood in the air in the center of it. As he had just advanced into higher ranks, he was so powerful that he did not have full control over himself. Thus, his robes billowed, and the air around him was buzzing with agitation.

His eyes slowly opened, glowing with spiritual light, and the streams of blood on the surface of his body also disappeared entirely.

Half a step to Ninth Grade Sovereign. Mu Chen lowered his head as he gazed at his slender palm, feeling the majestic expanse of spiritual power that had never before been in his body. Even with his composure, he could not resist the surge of emotions in his heart.

When he had left the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy, he had not yet condensed a Sovereign Celestial Body, and when he first entered Daluo Territory, he was a mere First Grade Sovereign. However, over the past few years, he had gone through all sorts of training, and it was today that he finally touched the end of the Sovereign level.

As long as he could break the shackles of Ninth Grade Sovereign, then he would step into the level of the Supreme Sovereigns!

An Earthly Sovereign!

As long as he stepped into this level, even within the whole Great Thousand World, he would have the qualifications to travel the world and really join the ranks of the strong. At that time, he would really have the capital and qualifications to head to the Luo God Clan.

What once seemed unattainable, today became something that was within reach. This let Mu Chen feel gratified and relieved that these years of effort had not been in vain.

Mu Chen smiled slightly. He looked within himself and finally observed the Sovereign Sea in his body. Today, the scale of the Sovereign Sea was almost several times more magnificent than before when he had cultivated two years ago. The spiritual power contained therein was also immeasurable.

What's more, that kind of spiritual power was also more refined and condensed. If one looked more carefully, it would appear that there seemed to be a transparent flame emerging in the spiritual power, so that the spiritual power was full of vigor and vitality.

It's the Undying Flame you absorbed before.

Mu Chen saw this, and joy bloomed in his heart. It seemed that in these two years of cultivation, the Undying Flame that was absorbed into the Sovereign Sea had completely integrated into his spiritual power, so it was a great harvest.

Although this Undying Flame did not seem remarkable, Mu Chen was certain that when his spiritual power fused with these flames, he would have continuous vitality. Looking at this, although Mu Chen was half a step away from Ninth Grade Sovereign, if one only competed based on the pure strength of spiritual energy, even a real Ninth Grade Sovereign may not necessarily have an advantage over him.

Mu Chen smiled, and his thoughts retreated from the Sovereign Sea. He then looked at his own arms, only to see where the true spirit of the real Dragon and real Phoenix lay quietly. Their size seemed to have not changed much, but the color had undergone a huge transformation. The original bright gold color had been thoroughly turned into a dark gold color, and in that dark gold, there was a purple light.

As if aware of Mu Chen's gaze, the spirits of the real Dragon and Phoenix suddenly opened their eyes, and in a moment, there were two powerful forces of true Dragon and Phoenix oppression coming from them, which caused the sea around them to sink.

Detecting that strong oppression, Mu Chen's gaze turned bright. Even an Eighth Grade Sovereign would be suppressed to immobility under such pressure and have no fighting power.

Clearly, in the two years of his practice, the true spirit of the Dragon and the Phoenix, with the help of the miraculous qualities there, had progressed by leaps and bounds and undergone an amazing transformation.

Now if Mu Chen encountered Bai Ming again, he would not need to attack personally. As long as the oppression of the real Dragon and Phoenix emerged, that guy would be utterly defeated to the point of lying flat on the ground.

The harvest has been astonishing after this period of cultivation. Mu Chen's eyes were filled with satisfaction as felt his own improvement. According to the rules of time there, he ought to have been cultivating for two years, but in the Great Thousand World, only six months had passed. In half a year, his improvement was enough to astonish anyone.

He smiled and waved his sleeves, appearing like a spectre on a small island in the distant sea.

”Heheh, congratulations on the breakthrough.” His figure had just appeared as Nine Nether's laughter rang out. Mu Chen looked up, only to see the slender figure in front of his eyes, and then, his face was colored with amazement.

”You broke through to Ninth Grade Sovereign?” Mu Chen asked in amazement, for he could clearly perceive a faint sense of danger emanating from Nine Nether, which was something possessed by a true Ninth Grade Sovereign.

Nine Nether nodded. ”All thanks to Elder's Inherited Blood Essence.” Her face was also full of joy, as she was extremely satisfied with this harvest after cultivating. In the future, she would be able to help Mu Chen and was no longer as powerless as before.

Mu Chen pursed his mouth. He had put in hard work for two years but could only reach half a step to becoming a Ninth Grade Sovereign. In the end, Nine Nether's opportunity and luck had been stronger, and she directly set foot into becoming a Ninth Grade Sovereign. That really made a person envious.

The Undying Bird Sovereign Beast beside him smiled and said, ”The practice of Divine Beasts is different from that of human beings and has its own merits and demerits.”

Mu Chen nodded, and he looked at the almost transparent figure of the beautiful woman clad in palace robes. His eyes were dark, and he knew that it might not be long before the Undying Bird Sovereign Beast would dissipate completely.

This ancestor gave him the opportunity to enter this place that was of vital importance to him. Otherwise, if he had wanted to get to the present level smoothly, it would have taken at least a year, and that foundation would not have been as strong as it was now.

The beautiful woman looked in his eyes and smiled nonchalantly. ”I have already fallen, leaving a Spiritual Clone, to prevent the demonic psychic powers from infecting the Land of the Divine Beasts,” she said. ”Now that I have found an heir, I have completed my goal satisfactorily.”

”If I am capable of inheriting the power of this place in the future, I will do my part to protect the Great Thousand World.” Mu Chen clasped his fists as he made the solemn promise and commitment.

The beautiful woman nodded in relief, and then her body became more transparent, as if all her thoughts were gone. She pointed in front of her as the space rippled, forming a space whirlpool.
