Buzz!

The moment Mu Chen opened his eyes, a dazzling ray of light appeared out of thin air between heaven and earth. As the ray of light flooded the world, no one dared to look straight at it.

The source of the light was, shockingly, Mu Chen’s eyes! At that time, his eyes looked extremely dark and deep. In the depths of his pupils, it almost looked like a falling Milky Way, the appearance of which was marvelous!

Boom!

At the same time, a surly force of spiritual energy abruptly swept out from Mu Chen’s body, then wreaked havoc within the world, like a furious storm.

“The force of Spiritual Energy fluctuation must be the pinnacle of Grade Nine!” As the numerous top powers were feeling the Spiritual Energy fluctuation, their eyes flashed in an instant.

It seemed like Mu Chen had used the help from the perfect baptism to accomplish the breakthrough and entered the pinnacle level of Grade Nine! But, this upgrade was not what the people found to be surprising. Instead, they were surprised because the perfect Heavenly River baptism had only managed to bring Mu Chen to this level!

After all, Mu Chen was already in the early stages of entering the pinnacle of Grade Nine. As such, he only had to spend some time to steel himself, then entering the pinnacle of Grade nine would be a natural achievement! Therefore, this relatively insignificant result was unbelievable.

“Eh, this is not right! Mu Chen’s Spiritual Energy is still getting stronger!” The people suddenly realized that the Spiritual Energy that was sweeping out from Mu Chen’s body had yet to stabilize, meaning that it was still growing dramatically!

Boom! Boom!

Waves of majestic Spiritual Energy came down in torrents. The waves of the fluctuations swiftly climbed to the highest point of the pinnacle of Grade Nine, then probingly lashed out, attempting to rise to Complete Grade Nine.

However, they were unsuccessful the first couple of times, only reaching the doorstep of Complete Grade Nine. The good news was that the Spiritual Energy that burst out of Mu Chen was very tough, and after multiple unsuccessful attempts, a step over was finally achieved!

The Spiritual Energy that was expanding and contracting back and forth suddenly poured out, like a dam finally being released of its stored water. At this moment, Mu Chen stepped into Complete Grade Nine!

“The perfect Heavenly River baptism’s reputation is indeed fully justified.” Above the Heavenly River, the numerous top powers secretly sighed. A baptism of this sort was almost satisfying enough to make all of the years spent in hard work worth it!

Even though they were faced with Mu Chen, who had successfully stepped up two levels, they were not too surprised. After all, it was a perfect baptism.

As the people were amazed at how Mu Chen’s powers had grown, in the other direction, Xiao Xiao, Nine Nether, and Lin Jing were slightly knitting their brows. The others might think that it was pretty satisfying that Mu Chen could step up two levels, but they did not see it that way.

This is because they had clearly seen that Mu Chen’s previous breakthroughs, where he had experienced multiple shocks before managing to barely step into the Complete Grade Nine. This was a sign of a breakthrough that lacked Spiritual Energy.

This situation had never appeared before, even with Qin Jingzhe and Nine Nether, who only had the high level baptisms. But, for Mu Chen, his was the perfect baptism!

This Heavenly River baptism was one of Ancient Celestial Palace’s foundations, and the perfect baptism was of the utmost importance. It was said that, in that generation, almost every disciple that had a perfect baptism in the Ancient Celestial Palace went on to become one of the most important people in the Ancient Celestial Palace. This showed the power of the perfect Heavenly River baptism!

Originally, according to Xiao Xiao and the others’ estimations, Mu Chen could have steadily stepped into Complete Grade Nine. But, the current situation made them indescribably puzzled.

Xiao Xiao and the others caught glimpses of The Great Solar Undying Body under Mu Chen’s feet. Although, at that time, the Sovereign Celestial Body was emitting a lofty golden light, after Heavenly River baptism, this Sovereign Celestial Body had obtained a great elevation. Yet, this elevation had yet to reach the predicted degree.

Xiao Xiao and the others looked at each other in dismay. The Spiritual Energy of the perfect baptism had not allowed Mu Chen to step into Complete Grade Nine steadily, nor had it allowed Mu Chen’s Sovereign powers to become extremely intrepid. This left them to wonder where the Spiritual Energy went…

Xiao Xiao and the other two let out several sighs. They sympathized with Mu Chen, who was supposed to stand in the same position as Zhu Yan, Garuda, and the others. However, this unforeseen event had led that to become only an empty hope.
