Bang!

The next instant, the fist and the palm clashed, and the immense destructive power carried by each of them instantly caused the space around them to collapse. It almost felt as if a black hole had been formed, as all of the lights in the surrounding area were swallowed up immediately.

Lion King Gu displayed a scary smile.

Boom!

As a low and sharp noise echoed out, a stunned expression could be seen on Lion King Gu's face. This was because he clearly felt an enormous power that was so overbearing break out from Mu Chen's fist. In fact, that power far surpassed even an Upper Earthly Sovereign's!

That is definitely not the power that an Upper Earthly Sovereign should have...

Dong!

The destructive shock wave broke out and spread across a thousand miles. Hills and peaks were directly razed to the ground. Cracks even started to appear in the space.

The earth filled the sky like a rising wave. Mu Chen's body was suddenly hit by a shock, sending him flying backwards. His feet took several hundreds of steps backwards, with each footprint creating a bottomless abyss.

Lion King Gu was sent flying backward more than twenty steps as well. Although he may have seemed to have an advantage at this time, his expression remained quite gloomy.

He stared at Mu Chen with a slightly horrified glare, as he never thought that Mu Chen would be able to block or withstand his attack in the previous duel. He even managed to take a direct hit from a Complete Earthly Sovereign, all with the mere strength of an Upper Earthly Sovereign!

Lion King Gu was lost in a state of disbelief for a short period. The palm strike that he had served could even incapacitate a careless Half Complete Earth Sovereign like Long Xiang, so it should have obliterated an Upper Earthly Sovereign like Mu Chen! Yet, no sign of injuries could be seen on Mu Chen, who was currently alive and well after taking his attack.

While Lion King Gu had yet to recover from his shock, Mu Chen, on the other hand, was rubbing his fists with a surprised look on his face. The Complete Earthly Sovereign was indeed strong and unmatched!

The punch that he served may have seemed ordinary, but it was actually infused with not just the spirit of the real dragon and the real phoenix, but also had the boosted spiritual energy that was converted from the Pagoda within it! Thus, it would be safe to say that not even Long Xiang withstand up such a punch.

Yet, this punch was slightly underwhelming when going up against Lion King Gu. All of this merely showed the superior strength of a Complete Earthly Sovereign.

Despite his being faced with an opponent at such a high level, Mu Chen showed no signs of fear. Instead, his gaze was filled with a burning heat that only grew stronger by the minute.

Mu Chen knew that the road to becoming a hero was indeed a path where one must constantly challenge himself by taking on a much stronger opponent. Moreover, Lion King Gu would be the first Complete Earthly Sovereign that he would ever have a duel with.

Mu Chen turned his head and waved lightly at Luo Li and Long Xiang, signaling them to join forces to stop the other Complete Earthly Sovereign. Both Luo Li and Long Xiang nodded and swiftly rose straight into the sky, locking their eyes on Evil Fish Liang.

”Hehe, you dare provoke me with just a lineup of a Half-step Complete Earthly Sovereign and a Lower Earthly Sovereign? You really must be tired of living,” Evil Fish Liang said with a smug smile.

As Evil Fish Liang laughed, his figure flew straight into the sky, then headed straight towards Luo Li and Long Xiang.

”Hmph, he's just an Upper Earthly Sovereign, so killing him will be a piece of cake to me.” Lion King Gu replied with a gloomy humph, as he could not accept such embarrassment.

His sullen gaze remained on Mu Chen like a poisonous snake as he spoke. A vast amount of spiritual energy rippled out of his body, as if he had transformed into a boundless mini universe. Everyone could feel that Lion King Gu had finally paid attention to the scenario and was now prepared to fight with his full might.

Feeling the tremendous pressure that was emanating from Lion King Gu, Mu Chen's gaze was sharp. In the next moment, he took a deep breath and formed a seal with lightning-fast speed.

Hum!

An endless aura erupted Mu Chen's back, and the purple gold light converged and condensed, forming a giant Sovereign Celestial Appearance, the Immortal Golden Body!

As Mu Chen reached the level of Upper Earthly Sovereign, the Immortal Golden Body grew by ten thousand feet. Yet, it was considered a dwarf compared to the other Sovereign Celestial Bodies, which could reach up to a million feet and above!

It was strange that Lion King Gu did not shower the smaller scale Immortal Golden Body with sarcasm. Instead, his expression had gradually become serious. This was because he noticed a sense of danger emerging from that Purple Golden Celestial Appearance the moment it appeared.

”What Sovereign Celestial Body is that?” Lion King Gu wrinkled his eyebrows.

The Immortal Golden Body was so rare, not even he could verify its identity. One thing that he was sure of was that the ranking of this Immortal Golden Body must be in the top 20 on the list of Sovereign Celestial Bodies. Not even Lion King Gu could ever possess a Sovereign Celestial Body at such a level!
