Chapter 1240 - The Arrival of the Battle Trials (2/2)

Whoosh! Whoosh!

At this moment, the sound of something whistling through the sky rang out, while three figures fell from the sky and landed in the square, drawing everyone's attention. Mu Chen glanced over too, as he could sense a dangerous aura coming from the three silhouettes.

Mu Chen's gaze swept over the three figures. He saw a man who was dressed in black robes that had countless star runes on the. He looked to be middle-aged, but his hair was as white as snow. He had elegant features and exuded a gentle aura.

The second man was donned in green robes and carried a rusty iron sword. He emanated a ferocious aura, and even where his feet fell, the sword sense raged, carving trails on the ground. The third man was a little burly. He had long hair, a manly face, and an indescribably overbearing demeanor.

Mu Chen stared at the three of them, pondering. These three men should be the three famous Upper Earthly Sovereigns of the Western Kingdom Continent, whom Luo Li had mentioned before. Specifically, they were the Star Pavilion Pavilion Master, Liu Xingchen, Sword Deity Lang Ya, Su Mu, and Domineering Sword, Chu Men.

As soon as these three men appeared, he found that many of the Upper Earthly Sovereigns in the square had cast very solemn looks towards them. They were apparently quite afraid of them.

After their appearance, the three men seemed calm. As they were showing restraint, they were obviously not simple!

Bong!

As the number of people in the square increased, a low drum rang out. The crowd heard it and looked up to see that, at the end of the square, in front of the towering War Temple, there were ten thousand stone steps!

At the top of those steps were two golden thrones. In one of the thrones, a majestic golden-robed figure was lounging. When the figure appeared, the whole world seemed to be faced with an invisible pressure. All of the commotion amid the crowd stopped,as reverent gazes converged on that one lone figure.

”Respects to the War Emperor!” In the next moment, numerous voices sounded.

At the same time, the figures bowed with clasped fists and looked respectful. The man sitting on the throne was none other than the ruler of the Western Kingdom Continent, Heavenly Sovereign, the West Heaven War Emperor!

Facing everyone's bows, the West Heaven War Emperor smiled and nodded. He then looked towards the space above him, smiled, and said, ”It is my honor that to have the Flame Emperor at my Western Kingdom War Temple today.”

”Since the War Emperor has extended his invitation, how could I not come?” As soon as the War Emperor finished speaking, the space suddenly became distorted and a blaze of flames swept through the air. It then condensed into a slender figure in the sky.

Magnificent flames surrounded the figure. When he appeared, the crowd could sense that the War Emperor's oppressive aura that had originally shrouded the entire world had quickly subsided.

”That's the Flame Emperor from the Endless Fire Territory!” someone shouted.

Between heaven and earth, countless Sovereigns raised their heads and looked at that figure with shock. Their eyes were full of respect and yearning. After all, in this world, the Flame Emperor's reputation was impeccable!

Although the West Heaven War Emperor was also a pinnacle of the Great Thousand World and was definitely a decisive figure, compared with such a figure as the Flame Emperor, he was still inferior. Even the West Heaven War Emperor had to acknowledge this fact, despite his arrogance.

However, such a formidable character was often secretive in his whereabouts. This was most likely one of the Flame Emperor's Spiritual Clones, but everyone had to wonder why would he come to the Western Kingdom Continent to spectate the Child of the Continent Battle Trials...

Some people's gazes flickered, and finally, their eyes vaguely looked towards where Mu Chen stood. It seemed that it was Mu Chen who had sought help from the Flame Emperor when they were in the Luo God Clan. Yet, even the West Heaven War Emperor had returned without success.

Moreover, it was said that even Mu Chen's title of the Child of the Continent Battle Trials came from the Flame Emperor, who had asked for it from the War Emperor for him. So, it was clear that the Flame Emperor had come partially because of Mu Chen.

”This boy actually has an impressive background! It's no wonder he's not afraid of the Western Kingdom War Temple.” A powerful Sovereign secretly sighed in envy. After all, in this world, it was not easy to be associated with the Flame Emperor.

Amidst countless awed gazes, the Flame Emperor fell from the sky, then landed on golden throne beside the War Emperor. After sitting down on the throne, he gazed at Mu Chen and smiled at him.

Seeing the Flame Emperor's glance, Mu Chen smiled and clasped his fists in greeting.

As the Flame Emperor gazed at Mu Chen, surprise surfaced in his heart. At this moment, Mu Chen sensed the Crystal Pagoda within his body tremble. As the realization dawned on him, Mu Chen was astonished!

Did he sense the Crystal Pagoda in my body with just one glance?
