Chapter 1474: Battle to Become the Overlord

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Tianluo City, the Tianluo Continent.

As it was situated in the center of the Tianluo Continent, the imposing Tianluo City was considered to be the capital. As the city was quite unique no solo forces had been able to control it during recent years.

This meant that, most of the time, the city was regulated jointly by some of the top-notch forces in the continent. However, as the Tianluo Alliance, which combined the power of the five Superforces, was formed, it naturally had enough power to rule the city.

Hence, the Tianluo Alliance announced that Tianluo City would be its headquarters the very next day after it was officially formed. There were no objections to this decision from any parties within the continent, as the joint power of the five Superforces was far too domineering to stand up against.

In the past, the five Superforces did not see eye to eye with each other. They fought amongst themselves and declared war, which resulted in the absence of a powerful overlord within the Tianluo Continent.

Today, the emergence of the Mu Estate posed a threat to all five Superforces. So, when they decided to form an alliance, the Tianluo Continent gave birth to a new, unified and intimidating force.

Now, as long as this force could gain favor in the Tianluo Banquet, no one would doubt that a true overlord would soon emerge in the Tianluo Continent. As everyone awaited such an exciting and telling event, the next two days passed in the blink of an eye.

On the day of the banquet, when the first rays of sun shone on the imposing and ancient city, the entire city began to buzz with energy and excitement. Countless light figures came whistling in from the sky, having traveled from quite far away.

Today, Tianluo City had become the focus of the entire Tianluo Continent! Almost all of the continent’s experts and top forces had gathered here, as they knew that a true overlord was likely to emerge following the Tianluo Banquet.

Throughout the years, the rising of the Mu Estate had caused a great shift within their world. Under Mu Chen’s leadership, miracles happened again and again. They seemed to be invincible and unstoppable!

On the other hand, the newly established Tianluo Alliance also had a strong and compelling background. This meant that the reputation of the joint-alliance of the five Superforces could easily gain attention within the Great Thousand World.

Since the two most influential forces of the Tianluo Continent were meeting today, a clear winner must emerge from the convergence. At that time, the Tianluo Continent would put to rest all of its past disputes and welcome its first true overlord. All things considered, this could be the most significant event for the Tianluo Continent ever!

The city was getting more and more excited. At the moment, the spacious White Jade Square, which was located in the city center, was blinking with bright lights, attracting everyone’s attention.

Shoo!

Suddenly, numerous light figures descended from the sky and scattered around the square. These were all renowned experts and first-class forces from all across the Tianluo Continent. However, these experts and forces, who usually enjoyed fame and were the centers of attention, paled in comparison today, as everyone knew that the two intimidating forces were the showrunners of the day.

At the moment, countless gazes, all of which were filled with fear and respect, were cast upon five shiny golden thrones in the square. Five figures were sitting quietly on the golden thrones, a boundless oppression exuded from each of their bodies, like windstorms, which shook the entire land. They were the Five God Grade Heavenly Sovereigns!

In the past, these five God Grade Heavenly Sovereigns had hid behind the scenes in the various forces around the Tianluo Continent. Then, following Mu Chen’s emergence, these powerful figures were forced to make their appearances.

“The five God Grade Heavenly Sovereigns are quite terrifying! We did not know about the existence of such daunting people in the Tianluo Continent!” an onlooker exclaimed, while numerous people stared at the five figures, who looked like deities, in awe.

Soon, the whole crowd was commenting and shouting at once…

“It looks like the Tianluo Alliance is going to challenge the Mu Estate directly!”

“The Mu Estate emerged too quickly. However, the Master of the Mu Estate is quite formidable. In fact, I heard that he even defeated Huang Xuanzhi from the Phoenix Clan not long ago.”

“The Master of the Mu Estate is Mu Chen, right? I heard that he was just at the superior level in the Daluo Territory a few years ago. Yet, he has made such improvements in such a short span of time. That’s really impressive!”

“Yes! It makes me wonder who will have the upper hand in this confrontation.”

“I think that it will be the Tianluo Alliance. After all, they have five God Grade Heavenly Sovereigns!”

“But… Mu Chen will not be easy to deal with! I mean… Look at his record! It’s unbelievable!”

“In any case, today will be an exciting event!”

Whispers spread throughout the city. With such an impressive line-up, everyone was greatly anticipating who the overlord position of the Tianluo Continent would go to.

They knew that Mu Chen, the young supreme talent with splendid winning records, was not someone who would be easily defeated. Hence, everyone knew that a fierce battle would soon take place before their very eyes!

At the moment, the five figures on the golden thrones had their eyes closed, and it appeared as though they did not hear the whispers that were circulating all around them.

Time passed, while the heated discussions among the onlookers continued. Soon, the bright sun hung in the middle of the sky.

Cuhcaw!

At this time, a phoenix cry penetrated the air. Its shrill sound echoed throughout heaven and earth from a distance.

Shua!

All eyes lifted to gaze into the faraway sky simultaneously. As they did so, they could sense an overwhelming and daunting oppression sweeping towards them. The five sovereigns on the golden thrones, including the Ghost Emperor and Ancestor Danyang, also opened their eyes and looked upon the scene.

While everyone was watching, a small black dot quickly appeared in the sky. The black dot blinked a few times, then inflated quickly. Eventually, it transformed into a giant black phoenix!

As the black phoenix flapped its gigantic wings, it could be seen that its entire body was burning within a black flame. As the black phoenix approached the city, the oppression that was being exuded from the bloodline caused many of the experts’ expressions to change, while many of them could not help but cry out…

“What kind of Divine Beast is this?”

“What a terrifying oppression! It is not any weaker than those of the Phoenix Clan or Dragon Clan!”

As they watched the massive animal that was now concealing the sun, everyone was appalled by the oppression that it exuded. The Ghost Emperor, Ancestor Danyang, and the rest of the three sovereigns frowned as they exchanged gazes with each other. Doubt filled all of their eyes.

“Is this the legendary Undying Bird?” one of them asked in amazement.

After all, they were God Grade Heavenly Sovereigns, and each of them had a vast amount of experience. Hence, after the temporary shock had worn off, they all recalled the origin of this black phoenix.

Immediately, their expressions turned solemn, as they could clearly sense that the Undying Bird had reached the later stage of the Spiritual Grade. As such, it now had a very daunting combat power!

“Since the Master of the Mu Estate is clearly already here, why don’t you show yourself?” The Ghost Emperor stared at the back of the black phoenix with his greyish-white eyes. At the same time, his cold and eerie voice echoed through the air.

As everyone followed his gaze, they spotted a slender figure, who was standing on the black giant phoenix’s head. This young-looking man emanated a tremendous amount of pressure.

Upon hearing the voice of the Ghost Emperor, the youth seemed to chuckle a bit as he stepped out. The next moment, everyone saw multiple figures, all of whom appeared like ghosts in the center of the White Jade Square.

The black giant phoenix let out another shriek in the air before its massive body began to shrink. Eventually, it fell, and as it descended, it transformed into a slim and tall figure that landed behind Mu Chen. It was Nine Nether!

Immediately thereafter, the sound of whistling wind was heard. Then, one after another, the numerous figures started to appear behind Mu Chen and Nine Nether.

Ancestor Xuan Tian and Mandela stood at the front of the light figures. Apparently, all the powerhouses from the entire Mu Estate had turned up at this very moment!

When they appeared, the boisterous city quieted down immediately. All of the people present were staring with curiosity and awe at Mu Chen.

As he stood in front of them, his young and handsome face had a faint smile upon it, and he looked quite calm and composed. He did not show even a hint of fear as he faced the five God Grade Heavenly Sovereigns.

“The Master of the Mu Estate is indeed a supreme talent to have reached this stage at such a young age. I really do admire you,” the Ghost Emperor said, while gazing at Mu Chen with his greyish-white pupils.

Mu Chen chuckled softly, then replied, “You don’t have to act so humble. Since the Tianluo Alliance invited me here amid such pomp and circumstance, I am sure that the reason is not for enjoying a feast at the banquet alone… Am I right?”

As the five sovereigns exchange gazes with one another, Ancestor Danyang grinned and said, “Indeed. We do have an agenda to discuss with you.”

He paused for a moment, then said with a sincere expression on his face, “You have probably already heard about this, as the five forces have been planning this for many years. We’ve expended a great amount of effort to build our forces here, and now, we have decided to forgive all of our past grudges in order to end the long-time disputes in the continent once and for all.”

He paused to take a breath, then added, “As such, we are hoping that you can also share this vision and consider the peace of the Tianluo Continent… By giving up on the idea of fighting to become the overlord.”

He then waved his hand and said, “Of course, we will compensate the Mu Estate generously. In fact, we have all decided to give you the Heavenly Python Continent, which you may use as the base of the Mu Estate.”

As Ancestor Danyang spoke, it was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. All of the first-class forces sucked in breaths of cold air secretly, as they were startled at how blunt the Tianluo Alliance while stating these terms.

Most of the people present were familiar the Heavenly Python Continent. It was a continent that was not far from the Tianluo Continent. As its size was small and its resources were limited, compared to the Tianluo Continent, it was far inferior.

After hearing such terms, all of the powerhouses from the Mu Estate had stern looks on their faces. After all, the thought of giving up the Tianluo Continent for the Heavenly Python Continent just did not make sense! As such, they all had to wonder… Does the Tianluo Alliance have such little regard for the Mu Estate?

Everyone immediately turned their gazes toward Mu Chen, whose expression had remained calm. Mu Chen then lifted his chin and swept his gaze across the five God Grade Heavenly Sovereigns.

He shook his head and smiled. Then, with a calm and peaceful voice, he replied, “I’ll give you and your people a single day to leave the Tianluo Continent. If you do so, I promise to not pursue this matter any further.”

As soon as Mu Chen had finished stating his own terms, the entire world fell silent, while numerous experts broke into cold sweats. Mu Chen certainly did not beat around the bush, and his words had totally offended the Tianluo Alliance!

This time, there was really no room for peaceful negotiation…
