The earth was in chaos. Layers of land crumbled, and huge cracks crawled like pythons, showing the destruction that had laid waste to the place. At this time, the area was still in shocked silence, and all eyes stared at the seriously injured figure on the ground in the distance.
Who would have expected that Golden Sky Prime, who was originally considered the most powerful individual there, would unexpectedly lose at Mu Chen’s hands… He was a Seventh Grade Sovereign at his peak. Even those supreme talents of the top Divine Beasts Clan would find him challenging, but now, he had lost to Mu Chen, who was only a Sixth Grade Sovereign? Not only were Golden Break and his group in disbelief, but even Han Shan was utterly shocked at what had just transpired.
Although they had never underestimated Mu Chen, the greatest expectation in their hearts was that they hoped Mu Chen could stabilize the situation. Even if he could not defeat Golden Sky Prime, as long as he could entangle him in a fight, it would show strength that would frighten the other party. In that case, the Golden Lion Clan and the Sirius Clan would not dare to easily monopolize the treasures of the Treasure Beast.
As for defeating Golden Sky Prime and driving him out of the battle, that was something they had never thought of.
Amid shocked glances, Mu Chen’s figure gradually descended from the sky. His eyes glanced indifferently at the embarrassed figure in the distance as he said nonchalantly, “You still have a breath in you, and you want to play dead?”
In the distance, Golden Sky Prime, who had collapsed in the gully, finally moved and then supported himself. He was in a state of embarrassment. His face was deathly pale, and the spiritual energy around his body was weak. Fear emerged as he glanced at Mu Chen.
With his powerful physique, he had not been killed by Mu Chen on the spot, but he still had very serious injuries. Although he knew that Mu Chen’s current state was not any good, either, it was still better than his.
Golden Sky Prime wiped at the blood smeared on the corners of his mouth, and his voice was somber. “Hah, I didn’t expect that I would fail in something I was confident in.”
Mu Chen smiled faintly, but there was no warmth in his eyes. Instead, murderous intention flowed out from him. Before that, Golden Sky Prime had not shown mercy and was full of murderous intent, so at the moment, Mu Chen did not intend to let him live, if possible.
Beside them, Golden Break, Huo Yang, and the others had retreated beside Golden Sky Prime in an embarrassed state. At this time, their faces were all panicked, no longer domineering like before. With Golden Sky Prime’s defeat, the situation had obviously been completely reversed.
Nine Nether, Han Shan, Ink Blade, and the others swept to Mu Chen’s side. Nine Nether and the others knew of Mu Chen’s prowess, but powerful figures of the Demonic Rhino Clan such as Han Shan were full of awe and fear. Even Han Shan, who was immensely powerful, glanced at Mu Chen with admiration and respect.
“It’s all thanks to Brother Mu this time.” Han Shan sighed. If it weren’t for Mu Chen who had turned the tide, they would have had to flee like beaten dogs. As for the Treasure Beast, they wouldn’t have had a chance at all.
“What should we do with them?” Nine Nether looked at Mu Chen, and then the corners of her eyes glanced across at Golden Sky Prime and the others. A murderous glint flashed in her eyes. If possible, she didn’t mind annihilating all of them to prevent future trouble.
As they sensed the murderous intent in Nine Nether’s eyes, Golden Break and his group’s expressions could not help but change. The spiritual energy around them surged, and they were on high alert.
“Mu Chen, don’t think that just because you have defeated me, we will be at your mercy!” Golden Sky Prime said as anger surged in his eyes.
Mu Chen smiled as he asked, “Otherwise, what?”
Golden Sky Prime glanced down as he replied coldly, “If it comes to that, you may be able to live, but believe me, someone on your side will perish with me.” Hostility was apparent in his words. Although he had now lost to Mu Chen, Golden Sky Prime was still a formidable figure, and his ruthlessness caused some to fear.
Mu Chen’s eyes narrowed. He did not suspect Golden Sky Prime’s words in the slightest. If he really wanted to devour them all, he would have to pay a price.
Han Shan and others’ expressions changed, as they understood that Golden Sky Prime did have the right to say that. He may not have been able to do anything to Mu Chen but in a desperate fight, killing them would not be difficult.
The atmosphere was stiff. After a few moments, Mu Chen suddenly laughed. “You are right, but I can hardly believe that a man who was suppressed by momentum in the end will really have the courage to give up everything and fight to the death.”
In the last confrontation, Mu Chen had completely suppressed Golden Sky Prime’s momentum. This was because Mu Chen was more fierce than he was and dared to give up his life, whereas Golden Sky Prime did not, so his momentum was suppressed as Mu Chen sensed his flaws and defeated him completely. Therefore, Golden Sky Prime cherished his life and did not have the courage to fight to his death, which was why Mu Chen had doubts about his threat.
Golden Sky Prime’s face turned steely with rage and paled alternately as he finally gritted his teeth and said, “If there is really no way out, then I can only fight to the death!” His words unwittingly conveyed retreat, implying to Mu Chen that he could tolerate it, as long as they didn’t drive him to a dead end.

Mu Chen looked at Han Shan and Nine Nether to ask them for their advice, but the latter merely nodded to show that everything would be done in accordance with what he said.
Upon seeing the situation, Mu Chen smiled gently and said, “If you want to end this matter, it is not impossible but there are conditions…
“Firstly, the treasures of the Treasure Beast will have nothing to do with you all…”
Golden Sky Prime and his groups’ faces twitched and were extremely downcast. They had entered the Land of the Divine Beasts largely for the Treasure Beast, but at present, Mu Chen was demanding they withdraw directly. Such losses were indescribable.
However, when they saw Mu Chen’s gentle smile, they realized that if they really refused, the young man who seemed gentle but was vicious and insane in his actions, would not hesitate to deal a fatal blow. Thus, after a moment of consideration, Golden Sky Prime could only nod, his expression steely.
Huo Yang also had a bitter heart. On the one hand, he had originally chosen the Golden Lion Clan because they were fully prepared, and thus he thought they had a better chance of winning. However, he never expected Han Shan to invite a group of people along in the middle of the journey. The existence of such a freak who could defeat Golden Sky Prime, a Seventh Grade Sovereign, with the power of a Sixth Grade Sovereign, resulted in his hard work being all for naught, and now, he was about to lose his chances at fighting for the Treasure Beast. However, at this time, even Golden Sky Prime did not dare provoke Mu Chen. He naturally also did not dare to express dissatisfaction and could only nod gravely.
Mu Chen smiled and said, “Secondly… Your visit has caused us great losses, so you need to give us compensation. The price of the compensation is based on how many of you there are. One head accounts for 1,000,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid.”
Although Mu Chen did not want to engage in a life and death battle with Golden Sky Prime and the others, if these guys wanted to easily end the matter, that was obviously impossible. If these guys wanted to leave, they at least had to pay a hefty price!
Upon hearing his words, Golden Sky Prime and the others’ expressions twisted with rage. A head was 1,000,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid. There were eight people left, so they had to compensate 8,000,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid?
That was definitely no small sum!
Golden Sky Prime’s eyes were chilling as he snapped, “Mu Chen, don’t go too far!”
When Mu Chen heard the words, the smile on his face immediately vanished, and the cold glint in his black eyes was as sharp as a blade. The space behind him distorted, and the Sovereign Sea appeared indistinctly, emanating strong spiritual energy fluctuations.
“If you don’t think your life is worth 8,000,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid, use your life and fight to the death then.” Mu Chen’s voice was ice cold, and as he spoke, the magnificent spiritual fluctuations grew increasingly violent.
Looking at Mu Chen’s chilling gaze, Golden Sky Prime’s heart turned cold, and his face twisted. His fists clenched, and his spiritual energy welled up. However, in the face of this, Mu Chen’s expression remained unmoving, and the murderous intent in his eyes grew richer. Facing Golden Sky Prime’s fierce gaze, he never retreated. It was as if he completely did not care whether he really forced the latter to engage in desperate means, like a dog forced to jump over a wall.
Their gazes intertwined, as if the space were twisting. However, the standoff didn’t last long, and under Mu Chen’s sharp blade-like glance, Golden Sky Prime’s ferocious gaze weakened little by little, until at last he could only take a deep breath and gnash his teeth. “Alright,” he said. “We’ll pay!”
Mu Chen’s sharp gaze suddenly dissipated, and a gentle smile appeared on his handsome face once more. “Brother Golden is understanding, indeed. In the future, your achievements will be extraordinary. How can you easily abandon your life because of 8,000,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid?”
In the face of his flattering remarks, rage rose in Golden Sky Prime’s heart, but he dared not provoke Mu Chen. He could only snort coldly. He then directed a glacial gaze towards Huo Yang of the Sirius Clan and said, “If you want to stay alive, then hand over 5,000,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid.”
When Huo Yang heard the words, his face suddenly changed. They had three Sirius Clan members who were still alive. According to the number of people left, they only needed to hand over 3,000,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid. However, Golden Sky Prime asked them to hand over 5,000,000 drops, clearly intending them to bear the cost.
Golden Sky Prime’s heart was seething with rage. Seeing Huo Yang’s unwillingness, his eyes suddenly turned eerily cold, and murderous intent surged in his voice. “Why? You’re unwilling?”
Huo Yang looked at Golden Sky Prime’s malicious expression, and his heart jumped. His face twisted, but he could only gnash his teeth unwillingly. He turned around and emptied all his resources with his remaining partners. Finally, he handed them over to Golden Sky Prime. However, when handing over the Sovereign Spiritual Liquid to the latter, Huo Yang’s eyes were full of resentment, and he was extremely unhappy.
Golden Sky Prime did not bother to pay attention to what Huo Yang thought as he took the 5,000,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid and then took out his own resources, barely making up the 8,000,000 drops.
Golden Sky Prime held the jade bottle containing 8,000,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid, his palm trembling. Even with his temperament, he could not help lamenting the heavy loss. With a wave, he flung the jade bottle towards Mu Chen.
“Take it!”
