Chapter 965: Chapter 959

A dark purple divine light suddenly bloomed from the heart of the demonic blossom, and when the purple light surged out, the sky and the earth darkened instantly, as if the light between the sky and the earth had been swallowed up by that purple light.

In the Daluo Territory, many of the Sovereigns were shocked at the scene before them. They perceived an aura of death coming from that purple light. They had no doubt that, if the purple light were to come towards them, they would perish on the spot!

“This must be a Perfect Divine Art!” A few Sovereigns shivered in awe, their faces filled with respect and envy.

Mu Chen was indeed the top among the young generation in the North that day. He could even master a Perfect Divine Art, so it was no wonder that, even in the face of a Sovereign stronger than him, he was composed and showed no hint of fear.

From his perch at the front of the Hall of Welcoming Guests, Heavenly Sparrow Elder saw this dark world, and a glint flashed in his wizened eyes. He had not expected Mu Chen to have such an impressive combat prowess.

The Perfect Divine Art was really powerful, but the difficulty of cultivation was also quite high. In fact, ordinary people would be lucky to even obtain such a Divine Art, much less alone cultivate it.

However, Mu Chen not only had the opportunity to acquire such a Divine Art, but he was able to cultivate it! This capability alone was enough to show that he was no simple man!

Thus, when Heavenly Sparrow Elder saw this scene, Mu Chen inevitably raised in his esteem. He finally saw that Mu Chen did have great skills, and that he was not a mediocre person in need of Nine Nether’s protection.

“Although this technique is formidable, don’t underestimate the prodigy from my Nine Netherbird Clan…”

Although he knew how formidable Mu Chen’s Perfect Divine Art was, Heavenly Sparrow Elder did not worry too much. If they wanted to talk about heritage, the Nine Netherbird Clan would surpass the Daluo Territory by leaps and bounds!

Naturally, there were collections of Perfect Divine Arts within the clan. Liu Qing had also obtained a volume of Perfect Divine Art, which he had then cultivated successfully.

As Heavenly Sparrow Elder pondered all of these things, Liu Qing was looking at the purple light. Immediately, he took a deep breath, and the self-assuredness in his gaze completely disappeared. He obviously had not expected that Mu Chen’s counterattack would be so fierce!

Mu Chen was only a Fifth Grade Sovereign, but the offensive attacks that he had launched had chilled Liu Qing to the bone. This human being, who had formed a Bloodline Bond with Nine Nether, was indeed no mediocre human!

However, even though this fellow was extraordinary, if he thought that Liu Qing was someone he could easily defeat, then he was too naïve!

You have a Perfect Divine Art, but so do I!

Liu Qing’s gaze flickered. His face grew solemn, as he clasped his hands together swiftly. Afterimages flew upwards, as he conjured an ancient seal.

With the change of his seal, his whole body suddenly burst out a brilliant spiritual light. Red flames then immediately blazed forth from the foot of the Nine Nether Flame Sparrow’s massive body. In a few short moments, the flame had transformed into a fireball, which resembled a scorching sun.

Liu Qing’s figure was standing right at the center of the scorching sun. The mysterious and mystical purple light of destruction pierced the void. Meanwhile, the immense and incomparable scorching sun that enveloped Liu Qing’s body was shrinking at an astonishing rate.

In another short moment, the scorching sun transformed into the size of a human’s head, as it lay suspended in Liu Qing’s palm. Upon seeing this scene, many of the Sovereigns of the Daluo Territory could not help but twitch their eyebrows, as they were able to perceive the terrible destruction that the orb of red flames contained.

Liu Qing stared at the ball of flames on his palm, which was scarlet red in color and covered with ancient runes. The whole light ball was as solid as a red crystal ball, and within it lay the power of utter destruction.

“Heavenly Inflammation Divine Art, Great Flames Magical Pearl!” Liu Qing’s gaze gradually grew fiercer at this time, and immediately his palm slowly raised, emitting a cold hum.

“Go!”

The crystal-like sphere of light suddenly shook, and in the next instant, it turned directly into a flash of scarlet red light, which directly penetrated the void, shooting across the sky in a trace of flames. Finally, amid numerous shocked gazes, the scarlet light clashed violently with the dark purple divine light.

Rumble!

When the two collided, the earth-shaking sound reverberated loudly. Then, a huge shock wave, visible to the naked eye, shattered the void in the sky.

The buildings below were originally meant to be reduced to ashes by such shocks, but Mandela acted in the nick of time. With a single flick of her finger, a layer of spiritual light covered all of the buildings. The layer of spiritual light seemed weak, but it remained intact under the impact.

Mu Chen and Liu Qing were also affected by the terrible shock waves. The former, who was standing on the Great Solar Undying Body’s head, rapidly started sinking into the Great Solar Undying Body.

Liu Qing stomped his foot, as the Nine Nether Flame Sparrow immediately covered its body, placing its huge wings in front, like a huge shield. As it did so, there were red flames burning above it!

Boom!

The two gigantic figures collided! As the Great Solar Undying Body’s golden light dimmed, the huge body was shocked and staggered back. With every step, it left a huge mark in the sky, causing even the ground below to collapse.

Squawk!

The feathers of fire above Nine Nether Flame Sparrow’s wings were shattered at this time, and its sharp cries were heard ringing out. Its huge body used the momentum to dissolve the terrible impact as it retreated.

The shock wave lasted only a few moments, and when the last shock wave had dissipated, the heaven and earth were restored to their former brightness. However, the Great Solar Undying Body and Nine Nether Flame Sparrow were in rather embarrassing plights.

Boom!

As the shock wave dispersed, Liu Qing’s face grew deathly pale. Yet, in his eyes, there was a brilliant glint. Nine Nether Flame Sparrow suddenly shot out, carrying the heavenly flames and soaring straight at the Great Solar Undying Body.

However, in the face of his pursuit, Mu Chen did not show any sign of retreat. Instead, the Great Solar Undying Body emerged, its huge gold palm striking directly against Nine Nether Flame Sparrow brutally.

Nine Nether Flame Sparrow flapped its wings and approached, and as they clashed, the sky shook. The two massive entities were embroiled in a fierce fight in mid-air. With each encounter, the deafening sound of gold and metal clashing rang out.

Dong!

Another harsh collision occurred, as Liu Qing stared at Mu Chen, who had once again appeared on the Great Solar Undying Body’s head.

“What a rare worthy opponent!”

A fierce combat desire surged in Liu Qing’s eyes. At this time, he had thoroughly regarded Mu Chen as a character of the same rank, and his initial disdain had disappeared completely.

Instead, it had been replaced with a small touch of admiration. After all, Mu Chen had proven that he could fight on par with him as a mere Fifth Grade Sovereign. In this sense, he was aware that, if he had been in Mu Chen’s shoes, he not have been able to do the same!

However, this realization made his attacks grow in ferocity. Therefore, in this harsh collison, Liu Qing’s feet rose to the sky, only to see that, behind him, a pair of huge flaming red wings had stretched out. This meant that his body’s spiritual energy had become even more powerful!

His wings fluttered, as his figure charged straight towards Mu Chen. The momentum was horrifying! He could tell how formidable Mu Chen’s Great Solar Undying Body was, and if this battle continued, he did not know how long he would last! Thus, he struck with his original form, hoping to end the battle as soon as possible.

“If you want to end this quickly, be my guest!”

At this time, Liu Qing’s swift speed caused Mu Chen’s face to twist. His eyes twinkled, as he understood Liu Qing’s intentions. He then narrowed his eyes and stamped his feet, retreating abruptly and leaving the scope of the Great Solar Undying Body.

“Haha, how courageous! But, your speed is not as fast as mine!”

Liu Qing saw the situation and immediately laughed. His wings fluttered behind him, and his speed became even faster, as he was trying to seize the first opportunity to strike.

“Is that so?!” Mu Chen smirked, as his seals suddenly transformed. A golden light bloomed on his back, and a loud Phoenix cry was heard in the heavens and the earth.

A pair of huge purple and gold Phoenix wings immediately spread out on Mu Chen’s back, and at the same time, a strange sense of pressure emanated from the Phoenix wings. This was the oppression of a real Phoenix!

As the oppressive aura appeared, Liu Qing’s face twisted drastically, disbelief coloring his gaze for the first time. The terrible oppressive aura had actually caused even his blood vessels to tremble!

And speaking of blood, the Nine Netherbird Clan also possessed the Phoenix bloodline, because the Primordial Undying Bird, was a mutated Sovereign Divine Beast that had originated from the Phoenix Clan. Among the spiritual and divine beasts, the higher-ranking bloodline possessed a special oppressive aura. As such, when faced with such a high-ranking oppression, ordinary spiritual and divine beasts would be subjected to some suppression.

Liu Qing’s bloodline was that of a Nine Nether Flame Sparrow, which was also considered a Divine Beast. But, suddenly facing the oppression from the real Phoenix had still caught him off guard. He did not know how to react!

Mu Chen, seeing that Liu Qing was stunned, took the opportunity to act. The phoenix wings behind him fluttered, and he transformed into a stream of light, then charged at the latter. However, just as he charged out, his pupils suddenly contracted.

An ancient ghostly figure had appeared in front of him. It was Heavenly Sparrow Elder!

Mu Chen’s brows knit together, as he exclaimed, “Heavenly Sparrow Elder? You…”

Before he could finish speaking, he stopped, because he saw Heavenly Sparrow Elder staring at him. He was fixated, a calculating gleam flashing in his eyes. A moment later, he spoke, voicing each of his words slowly and deliberately, “Oppression of the Real Phoenix?”
