Chapter 1275: Advanced to Upper Earthly Sovereign!

The space froze, and time seemed to be lost in eternity. Mu Chen sat in the dark as though he were in his mother’s womb, feeling the warmth and tranquility. A total evolution slowly took place.

Under the ancient starry sky, Mu Chen remained still, and the ancient spiritual energy around him turned into mysterious rays of light. His body appeared dazzling as the light shined on him. The rays of light entered his flesh, bones, and blood, making him look more perfect.

As the ancient spiritual energy and the spiritual energy in his body merged together in complete harmony, his spiritual energy gradually became rich. This was a step deeper into the evolution. The grade and power of this rich spiritual energy was at least a level more powerful than his previous spiritual energy.

As the rich spiritual energy flowed in his body, his body emitted vibrating sounds. The inner parts of his body strengthened with every vibration. With the accumulation of such strengthening power, a great evolution was expected when his body was ready.

In the Luo God City of the Western Kingdom Continent, in one of the halls of the Luo God Palace.

Luo Li sat on the main seat and looked at the hall. A middle-aged man sat on a seat, and although he looked skinny, he was surrounded by horrifying power ripples. It was as if he were carrying a mountain.

This was a dangerous person.

Luo Li graded herself. Although she had not stepped into Upper Earthly Sovereign after completing the Baptism of the Strength of Continent, her strength had increased, and she had reached the Peak of Lower Earthly Sovereign.

She had no problem dealing with Ling Zhanzi, but the middle-aged man before her was more powerful than Ling Zhanzi. He must have reached Complete Earthly Sovereign or was only a half step away from it. Although it might be only a half step, he was much stronger than any Upper Earthly Sovereign.

Luo Tianshen, Luo Tianlong, and the other Earthly Sovereigns of the Luo God Clan sat beside Luo Li and looked warily at the middle-aged man.

“Elder, Mu Chen is not here. Please go elsewhere to look for him,” Luo Li said calmly.

A few days ago, this stranger had come to the Luo God Clan to look for Mu Chen. However, Mu Chen was receiving the baptism. Even if he had been around, Luo Li would not want Mu Chen to meet this man before she knew his intentions.

The middle-aged man simply shook his head and said flatly, “Since I am here, he will come to me.”

Luo Li frowned and asked, “Why are you looking for Mu Chen?”

“To bring him to a place,” The middle-aged man replied flatly.

Luo Li frowned even more and looked at the middle-aged man and said, “You may not be able to make him go with you.”

She knew that after the Baptism of the Continent, Mu Chen’s strength would advance greatly. Even when he was a Lower Earthly Sovereign, he was able to defeat Ling Zhanzi, who was at the Peak of Upper Earthly Sovereign. Although this middle-aged man was a half step to Complete Earthly Sovereign, he would not be able to deal with Mu Chen after his baptism.

When the middle-aged man heard it, he looked down and said with a smile, “If that is the case, I would like to give it a try. I hope he will not disappoint me… If not, Master would have protected him in vain.” The last sentence was so soft that only he could hear it.

…

Time passed in the darkness.

After a long while, Mu Chen started to awaken from his cultivation. The last ray of light from the starry sky entered Mu Chen’s body, and his frozen body gradually returned to normal. He opened his eyes, and his pupils were dark. There was no spiritual light in them.

Although everything was still, Mu Chen had reached the stage whereby he could control his spiritual energy freely. He kept silent and slowly stretched out his arms.

Boom! Boom!

The bones in his body let out a thunderous sound. It was an earth-shattering roar, and the space surged with each roar. Mu Chen stood up with his hair let down. In the next instant, vast spiritual energy burst out from his body.

Boom!

The spiritual energy swirled out and oppressed the entire void. The spiritual energy shot up crazily at an amazing speed, and within seconds, he had reached the Peak of Lower Earthly Sovereign-level.

He did not stop there.

Mu Chen’s robe flapped, even though there was no wind, and his spiritual energy slithered around like snakes underneath his skin. Within seconds, large rays of spiritual energy burst out from his body and shot up into the sky.

Bang!

At the sound, the spiritual energy fluctuation heightened. It broke through the bottleneck and brought Mu Chen to the Upper Earthly Sovereign-level! Majestic spiritual energy whizzed around Mu Chen, and it was several times stronger than the spiritual energy that he had possessed during the Battlefield of the Upper Earthly Sovereigns!

Mu Chen withdrew the spiritual light around him and lowered his head to look at his palms that were now filled with immense power. Although he was a composed person, he could not help feeling excited.

Upper Earthly Sovereign!

He had made a big leap with the help of the Baptism of the Continent. From Lower Earthly Sovereign, he had now become an Upper Earthly Sovereign! However, it had not happened overnight.

It takes three years to complete this baptism.

Mu Chen had used three years to obtain such an advancement. However, these three years were based on the timeline in the ancient starry space, and not according to the Great Thousand World. The mysterious baptism had twisted time and slowed it down. Three years in the ancient starry space was less than half a year in the Great Thousand World.

Mu Chen heaved a sigh of relief. During these three years, he had cultivated at a moderate pace and only required consistent advancements to strengthen his foundation. He did not need to start from scratch.

This baptism was in line with his expectations. The three years of training had helped him advance to Upper Earthly Sovereign and had strengthened his foundation. There would be no repercussions in the future when he moved on to Complete Earthly Sovereign or Heavenly Sovereign.

Mu Chen smiled and lifted up his palms. He felt the difference as the majestic spiritual energy gathered in his palms. His spiritual energy was more alive and powerful.

I have heard that every drop of a Heavenly Sovereign’s spiritual energy can turn into a river, and it is powerful like a mountain. This thought ran through Mu Chen’s mind. The ancient spiritual energy in this stretch of ancient starry sky must be linked to the stage when he would advance to Heavenly Sovereign.

Although Mu Chen was still far away from the Heavenly Sovereign-level, he managed to have a better idea about it after the baptism.

“The Baptism of the Continent is indeed amazing.” Mu Chen smiled and was pleased with his gains. No wonder the Flame Emperor had strongly recommended that he go for the Baptism of the Continent.

Mu Chen turned to look in the direction where Luo Li had been previously seated. She must have completed the baptism, as she was no longer there.

“Oh?” Suddenly, Mu Chen saw a spiritual light at the spot, and he waved his hand. The spiritual light flew toward him, and he heard Luo Li’s voice coming out of it.

“Mu Chen, someone is waiting for you at the Luo God Clan, but I can’t tell if he has any evil intentions. If you are done with the baptism, you must be extra careful. Although I am not sure where he comes from, I believe that he must be from the Budur Ancient Clan.”

When Mu Chen heard the name of the clan, he squinted and was filled with killing intent. “Budur Ancient Clan,” he said to himself softly. Cold light then appeared in his eyes.

“You are finally here!” Mu Chen’s voice resounded in the ancient starry sky as he disappeared into thin air.
