Chapter 1198: Spiritual Calamity

Mu Chen sat on the Heavenly River for almost a month before he finally opened his eyes.

Boom!

Lightning flashed in front of his eyes and thunder rolled across the entire area. An indescribable spiritual energy oppression gathered above Mu Chen and swirled out.

Splash! Splash!

The tidal wave that had been hurled by the powerful spiritual energy oppression tore apart in the sky and caused rain to fall down heavily. A large water tunnel caved in on the surface of the river where Mu Chen sat, while the whirlpool of remnant waves hung above him.

When the rain came down, it disappeared before it got close to him. Thus, Mu Chen did not get wet.

As Mu Chen sat under the torrential rain, his slender body was shiny like a piece of pure jade. His body exuded a frightening sharpness, as he had been refined by the Celestial Emperor Sword. As such, he felt as though his body was not a body, but a divine sword that could pierce through the heavens and the earth.

Dazzling spiritual light appeared on the surface of his body, then disappeared quickly as a horrifying spiritual energy shockwave was released from his body. After Mu Chen's body had gone through so many rounds of refinement, he was able to withstand these explosive shockwaves of the Sovereign Sea.

When the spiritual light appeared, the real dragon and real phoenix symbols appeared on his body. They were apparently the spirits of the real dragon and real phoenix that had been cultivated by the Dragon-Phoenix Body.

However, the spirits of the real dragon and real phoenix were only looming around, as Mu Chen's physique was too powerful for them. Hence, they dared not move around freely like they used to.

The torrential rain blurred Mu Chen's vision and he started to look more lively. He seemed to have just recovered from a state of shock. He then looked in amazement at his body, which had been broken and refined so many times.

He could sense the horrifying power in his body, and that made him feel like a mere illusion. He had been pursuing this power for so many years, and now that he had finally obtained it, he felt somewhat at a loss.

Mu Chen hesitated for a while, then stretched out his palms. He then grasped them together slowly. Although he did not use any spiritual energy, he saw dark spatial scratches appear in the space of his palms.

Bang!

When Mu Chen casually punched out, the space in front of him broke out like a mirror and space debris started to fly around. He went blank when he saw this.

If he had been hit by this punch one month ago without activating his Spirit-slaughtering Troop and using all of his trump cards, he would have been killed instantly! This power was an absolute repression power!

Is this the power of an Earthly Sovereign?

Mu Chen wondered to himself. He was suddenly frightened when he thought of Elder Zuo, whom he had met before.

If he was at his peak back then, Mu Chen would not have been able to escape unscathed, even though he possessed the Spirit-slaughtering Troop. This was because the absolute repression from an Earthly Sovereign would have killed him before he could activate the Spirit-slaughtering Troop.

However, this fear lingered only for a little while, then Mu Chen curled up his lips into a smile. This was because he now possessed a horrifying power! As such, even if Elder Zuo was at his peak and appeared before Mu Chen right now, he would not be afraid of him!

Nine Nether and Mandela stood on the surface of the river in the distance and were elated when they looked at Mu Chen.

”Has Mu Chen succeeded?” Nine Nether asked happily. She could feel an overbearing oppression exuding from Mu Chen's body that did not belong to a Complete Grade Nine.

”He is halfway there.” Mandela nodded with a smile. Mu Chen had indeed started to possess some powers of an Earthly Sovereign.

When Nine Nether heard this, she heaved a sigh of relief. She then looked perplexed.

When she first met Mu Chen many years ago, he was just a weak and incompetent youth. She never dreamt that he would enter the Earthly Sovereign-level before her!

Previously, she had protected him and kept him away from harm. However, the situation had now been reversed! Nine Nether sighed as she thought about it.
