The majestic spiritual energy swept out of the cave like a tidal wave. Following this, the slender figure walked out slowly under the watchful eyes of Nine Nether, Han Shan, and the others.
The moment they saw the figure, their eyes couldn’t help but freeze. This was because they all noticed a strong pressure coming from the figure.
It held a sense of oppression that was so strong, it caused their hearts to quiver. Although they had reached the strength of Grade Seven Sovereign for a long time now, Mu Chen, with his newly attained breakthrough, had far surpassed their auras of oppression.
As they were expressing their awe, Mu Chen was also standing outside the cave now. His majestic spiritual energy had gradually reduced, then finally hid inside his body. He gripped his palm slowly and felt the majestic spiritual energy flowing inside his limbs and bones.
A satisfied smile soon appeared on his face. He knew that this breakthrough had directly increased his spiritual energy and that his degree of concentration was far greater than before.
According to his estimation, if he confronted the Grade Eight Beast Spirit again, he would not have to go through the trouble of setting up many spiritual arrays anymore. Instead, he could kill a Grade Eight Beast Spirit effortlessly, all while relying on his own strength!
In fact, the Grade Seven Sovereign spiritual energy, together with the body strength of a Grade Seven Sovereign, was sufficient to allow Mu Chen to reign above any Grade Seven Sovereign! So, even when facing a real Grade Eight Sovereign, he now possessed the strength to face them without fear!
Mu Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, watching as the space behind him fluctuated. The Sovereign Sea was looming, its waves sweeping and its spiritual energy billowing. At the bottom of the Sovereign Sea, there appeared a white jade-like lotus seed, which was floating quietly along. As it floated, its majestic vitality was continually dispersing, causing the Sovereign Sea’s spiritual energy to become even more concentrated and agile.
At this time, Mu Chen was not able to refine that white jade-like lotus seed from the Nine Rotation Lotus completely, so he directly inhaled it into the Sovereign Sea, thus suppressing it. In this way, this white jade-like lotus seed was able to constantly emit the majestic vitality needed to nourish the Sovereign Sea’s spiritual energy.
Besides, once he had achieved the strength of Grade Nine Sovereign and tried to break the shackle of the Sovereign-level, this white jade-like lotus seed might be able to provide ample assistance to him! Moreover, Mu Chen had a hunch that, since he had achieved Grade Seven Sovereign and was only two levels from Grade Nine Sovereign, the day for him to reach Grade Nine Sovereign could not be far off!
The thoughts in his heart were churning so quickly, Mu Chen was only barely able to restrain them. However, doing so was vital, as it was imperative that he immediately enter the Divine Cemetery’s inner region to help Nine Nether obtain the inherited blood essence of the Ancient Undying Bird!
At that moment, the Sovereign Sea, which was now behind him, dissipated. He moved to appear in front of Nine Nether and the others, smiled, then said, “Let’s go, we should head to the inner region now.”
Nine Nether and the others were staring at Mu Chen, all of them able to feel his confidence growing. As the Heart of the Thunder-Devouring Beast, which was one of his trump cards, was gone, Mu Chen had to dig deep and rely on something more powerful, which obviously his own strength!
After completing the breakthrough, he was no longer afraid of Bai Ming. Seeing this confidence in Mu Chen, Nine Nether and the others were able to relax. So, they immediately nodded, then directly turned into shadows and burst out to follow his instructions.
On their way, Mu Chen and the others did not stop. With the Exterminating Eye’s spying power, they easily avoided all of the dangerous places and a huge number of beast spirits. This allowed them to go straight to the inner region with ease.
In only half a day, the surroundings had gradually become increasingly strange, the ground having turned from black to red! Such a vibrant red color shocked everyone, making it seem almost like an evil spirit was spreading throughout the entire space.
Mu Chen and others began to slow down at this point. Their sights were locked onto the distance, where they saw a dark golden light curtain was falling down and separating the heavens and earth into inner and outer regions.
“Behind that light curtain is where the Divine Cemetery’s inner region should be.” Mu Chen stared at the enormous light curtain, his look solemn.
He sensed a powerful and indescribable wave of energy coming from that direction. He could also sense that the light curtain was a large array, which could only have been arranged by a true Spiritual Array Ancestral Master!
Nine Nether and the others nodded, their faces serious and cautious.
“Let’s go.” Mu Chen was the first to arrive to the light curtain slowly. As he did so, he saw that the light curtain was filled with numerous mysterious runes, each rune emitting a terrible and powerful aura.
With the light curtain acting as a barrier, Mu Chen knew that he would not be able to break through. So, Mu Chen pondered for a while, then gripped his hand, causing the heart of the Grade Eight Beast Spirit to suddenly appear on it. He then threw the heart out and slowly approached the light curtain barrier.
The ancient runes glowed and a glimmer of light shined down. The light enveloped the heart of the Grade Eight Beast Spirit, while the black beast heart produced a thick black smoke.

There was a strong death-gas within the black smoke, but the death-gas disappeared when it came into contact with the brilliance. This was because a heart of a beast spirit that was originally full of death-gas would become a normal beast heart after a short while, thus purifying the death-gas! Moreover, the beast’s heart seemed to contain a hint of vitality now, as it was beating slightly.
Mu Chen looked at this scene in shock, as he had not expected this spiritual array to be so powerful. It not only purified the death-gas, but also gave life to the beast’s heart, which had been dead for thousands of years!
However, Mu Chen also knew that even amid such a seeming miracle, the beast’s heart could never be fully resurrected. After a short while, the beast’s heart slowly drifted towards the light curtain.
After the it reached it, the heart was integrated into it. It seemed almost like the heart had turned into a spot of light, truly integrating itself within the entire colossal array!
At that moment, when the beast’s heart was being integrating into the light curtain, the light curtain was slowly being torn open, revealing a vast gap. Mu Chen stared at the gap, then took a deep breath. He then turned his head and looked at Nine Nether and the others, nodded quickly, and stepped directly into the gap.
Nine Nether and the others followed behind him, stepping into the gap cautiously. As they did so, a red and bloody land entered their sights. The land seemed like a scarlet blood sea, which was strange and evil.
This color was not an act of nature, but had officially been dyed with real blood from some sacrifice, one which was indescribably powerful. Otherwise, it would not be this visibly clear and vibrant, especially after thousands of years! With just one glance, it caused a chill among Mu Chen and the others.
As the group was standing in the sky, they dared not land on this piece of land carelessly. Instead, they stood in the air and looked at the sky, which was also very different from the outside world.
There was a strong breath in the sky, which came from a once powerful existence. Though the existence had obviously already fallen, its will was still entrenched in the land, as if it was suppressing something. As such, the sky and the earth here seemed to be in a constant conflict with one another.
In the face of such an ominous power, Mu Chen and the others were seemingly insignificant. In fact, at this time, they were like ants between the palms of two fierce giants!
“In the ancient times, I think this was the fiercest place among the Land of the Divine Beasts,” Mu Chen sighed and said.
Even after thousands of years, the tragedy that happened in this place still shook the hearts of many people. The terrible battle that once broke out here was unimaginable.
Back then, the Extraterritorial Race broke out in full fury against the Land of the Divine Beasts, which had many strong warriors, all of whom tried their bests to protect their homeland. Such an intense battle made people tremble by just thinking about it.
Thinking about the place’s dire history, Nine Nether and the others were even more cautious and alert. After all, in this strange place, they might be killed at any moment!
“Let’s go, but try not to set your feet on the ground!” Mu Chen was looking into the distance, while he immediately waved them forward. Now that they had entered the inner region, they naturally could not give up.
By the time he had finished talking, he had already moved. However, this time, he carefully reduced his speed and dared not charge in fiercely.
Also, he dared not use the Exterminating Eye to spy anymore. After all, if something ancient was discovered, which then counter-attacked them, the consequence would be one that he could not afford!
Fortunately, this inner region was not as boundless as they had first imagined. After half an hour of making his ways towards the front, Mu Chen reduced his speed again, as something mysterious had suddenly appeared in the bloody land.
It was an ancient altar, which was large and standing on the land, as if it was linked directly to the heavens and the earth. Above the altar, many stone chains extended skyward. The chains were penetrating the land, as if they were binding something.
Mu Chen stared at the altar, a hunch developing in his heart. He thought that the goal of their trip was hidden here…
Just when this thought had just flashed through his mind, he suddenly noticed an indifferent, sly look, which was coming from somewhere within the altar. Mu Chen projected his gaze towards the look, where he saw Bai Ming, as he had expected.
Bai Ming wore a blue shirt and swayed an icy blue feather fan in front of his face. He stood among many powerful individuals from the Phoenix Clan.
As Bai Ming swayed the feather fan from side to side, he smiled at Mu Chen. It was a smile filled with ridicule.
“I did not expect you dare to appear here. I don’t know whether this makes you courageous or foolish!” He sneered.
