In the dim yellow sky, Mu Chen smiled as he held a red scroll in his hand. In front of him, the Fire Cloud King’s body had dissipated, as he had lost his battle seal and was kicked out of the battlefield.

After his previous threat, Mu Chen had achieved his goal easily. He had obtained the Fire Cloud King’s Fire Escape Super Power effortlessly.

It wasn’t too hard to do this, after all, as the Fire Cloud King was already akin to a fish on the chopping board. In this battlefield, life and death were impermanent, so no one could say anything at this time, even if Mu Chen was going to injure or even kill him.

Maybe the Fire Cloud King still had one last shot, but after that, he was going to suffer a lot of damage and after-effects. The consequences were quite serious, so, after a struggle, he chose his life over his Super Power.

“Spiritual Fire Divine Escape!” Mu Chen yelled, while he grasped the scroll and imbued it with his spiritual energy.

Information then flowed into his mind. This Spiritual Fire Divine Escape was only a minor Super Power Technique that would normally not interest Mu Chen. However, its speed and ability to penetrate spiritual arrays were of interest to Mu Chen. Otherwise, he would have been too lazy to threaten the Fire Clouds King with it.

In order to practice this Spiritual Fire Divine Escape, it must first be activated by spiritual energy flames. As Mu Chen’s spiritual energy had been integrated with the Unperishable Flame, it allowed him to achieve this condition.

Mu Chen kept the scroll and was quite satisfied with the results. Not only had he obtained two battle seals, but he had also gotten a defensive Lesser Sacred Object and a Fire Escape Super Power.

“Now that I have three battle seals, I have to keep one. So, I need two more to exchange for the Three Spirits Battle Array,” Mu Chen murmured to himself.

But, now that I have three battle seals, I’m afraid I don’t need to take the initiative to find someone. Instead, someone will come to me. In that case, I just need to make the arrangements, then wait for someone to rob me.

Mu Chen smiled, then soared towards the sky, charging away even further. As the previous place, which had been destroyed by the battle, was no longer suitable to set up a spiritual array, he needed to find another place.

At the end of the battle, in the White Jade Square of the Western Kingdom War City, his Spiritual Energy Screen had dissipated. However, numerous eyes were still looking at where it had just been in a dazed manner.

Before that, they saw how the Fire Clouds King was in hot pursuit of Mu Chen. Then, Mu Chen had produced a powerful spiritual array, which forced the Fire Clouds King to retreat. Next, Mu Chen dared to take the initiative to leave the spiritual array, clashing with the Fire Clouds King head-on.

Upon seeing that scene, many Sovereigns mocked Mu Chen’s arrogance, claiming that he was overwhelmed by a moment’s advantage. However, before their ridicule had died down completely, their eyes widened as they saw that, in just a few moments, the Fire Clouds King fell into Mu Chen’s hands!

It was not until a long time after the light screen had dissipated that many powerful Sovereigns looked at each other, fear and wariness flickering in their eyes. If they had heard about Mu Chen’s encounter with Xiong Ba, they might have thought that Mu Chen’s means were mostly tricks. However, in this battle, Mu Chen’s power that he revealed was enough to pose a great threat to Upper Earthly Sovereigns.

“Who would have thought that Mu Chen was so accomplished at spiritual arrays? The previous one must have reached the rank of an Intermediate Ancestral Master.” One of the Sovereigns sighed.

Though they all knew that, in the Luo God Clan, Mu Chen had achieved extraordinary spiritual array attainments, this one was obviously stronger than any of those back then. Many of the Sovereigns couldn’t help but comment on this…

“This fellow is strange indeed. He is only a Lower Earthly Sovereign, but his means are no less inferior to Upper Earthly Sovereigns’. No wonder he dared to compete in the Upper Earthly Sovereigns battlefield. He surely has some cards up his sleeve.”

“He seems to be a dark horse, but I just don’t know how far he can get. After all, given the current situation, I’m afraid he has a long way to go from the first echelon.”

“That’s right, Ling Zhanzi, who is ranked first now, has six battle seals.”

Many whispers spread around the square, but this time, they held no contempt. Everyone now understood that Mu Chen was indeed qualified to fight with the Upper Earthly Sovereigns.

Luo Tianshen heaved a quiet sigh of relief. Although he had an understanding of Mu Chen’s means, when he really saw Mu Chen defeat an Upper Earthly Sovereign, he couldn’t help but be amazed.

According to his estimate, if he had to face Mu Chen, he would most likely be defeated. This made Luo Tianshen smile bitterly.

The first time he saw Mu Chen a few years ago, Mu Chen was really unremarkable in his eyes. Though he did not look down on Mu Chen, it was clear that he did not regard him as a threat.

Who would have expected that, just a few years later, the young man who had been powerless in front of him would have risen to this stage, even surpassing him?

Luo Tianshen sighed, suppressing his conflicted emotions. He then murmured, “Let’s see how far this boy can go…”

Before the War Temple, above the two thrones, the West Heaven War Emperor glanced at the spot where the Spiritual Energy Screen had shown Mu Chen previously. He smiled faintly and said, “No wonder the Flame Emperor will let Mu Chen enter the Upper Earthly Sovereigns battlefield, as he is also an Intermediate Spiritual Array Ancestral Master.”

“But, such a card only proves that he is qualified to compete with the Upper Earthly Sovereigns. It is unlikely that he will win the title,” The West Heaven War Emperor remarked nonchalantly.

If the rank of Intermediate Spiritual Array Ancestral Master was Mu Chen’s ace card, then he was bound to be unqualified to compete for the title of Child of the Continent. Ling Zhanzi and the others were the best among the Upper Earthly Sovereigns in the land. The spiritual array could deal with Fire Clouds King, but would not pose a great threat to Sovereigns like Ling Zhanzi.

Upon hearing the War Emperor’s words, the Flame Emperor smiled in a non-committal way and said, “But, I feel young friend Mu Chen will not waste my Dragon-Phoenix Heavenly Sovereign Pill.”

The War Emperor narrowed his eyes as he glanced at the light screens and nodded. He then said in amusement, “I’ll wait and see then. Let’s hope this boy won’t disappoint you…”

In his opinion, if Mu Chen could hold out till the end, that was good enough. As for competing for the championship, haha, when the time comes, the three Holy Children of the Western Kingdom War Temple may teach him a lesson…

Once he was far away from the previous battle ground, Mu Chen finally slowed down. As he now had three battle seals in his hands, he knew that his position would appear in the other Sovereigns’ battle seals. In less than an hour, he sensed several spiritual fluctuations approaching him.

They have come for me…Mu Chen thought, as he landed swiftly. Then, with a wave of his sleeves, numerous spiritual seals descended, then melted into the space quickly.

Although Mu Chen could successfully lay out the complete form of Nine Dragons’ Deicide Array, he still had some quirks to iron out. So, he had to make all kinds of arrangements in advance. Otherwise, in a head-on battle with the Upper Earthly Sovereigns, the opponent would certainly not give him enough time to manage it.

After unsurprisingly experiencing two failures, a complete Nine Dragons’ Deicide Array appeared again around a sea of forests where Mu Chen was located. As he sat on a huge ancient tree, the Nine Dragons’ Deicide Array turned slowly and released powerful spiritual fluctuations. It then sent a wave of spiritual energy waves sweeping through the space.

This time, he did not go out of his way to hide the Nine Dragons’ Deicide Array. Last time, he had deliberately tried to lure the Fire Cloud King into it, but this time, someone would run into him of his own initiative.

The person who ran into him would naturally inspect the array carefully. No matter how well it was hidden, a majestic spiritual array of this degree would be discovered by an Upper Earthly Sovereign.

So, Mu Chen would soon see who had the courage to test it out. Once the spirit array was arranged, Mu Chen closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, but he was really waiting for the enemy.

His wait did not last long, as he was soon aware of four powerful spiritual fluctuations that were coming from four directions. They travelled towards him for a while, then finally stopped some distance away in the sky.

The four men who came here were all aware of each other, and now, they were all watching each other from afar. In today’s battlefields, everyone was an enemy.

They quickly looked away, then looked at Mu Chen in the forest. All of them paused and began to ponder the situation…

Lower Earthly Sovereign?

It’s the outsider, Mu Chen…”

He’s surrounded by a spiritual array. So, this boy is an Intermediate Spiritual Array Ancestral Master! No wonder he dared to break into the Upper Earthly Sovereigns battlefield.

Whoever wants the battle seals that are in my hands, come take them.

When they looked strangely at Mu Chen in the distance, the latter opened his eyes and his faint laugh rang out. All four of them frowned at Mu Chen’s challenging tone, but no one moved, for they all sensed the danger that was coming from the powerful spiritual array. Moreover, they were on guard against the other three people.

“If you dare not approach, go back and don’t waste your time.” Mu Chen saw that none of them seemed to show any signs of taking action, so he waved them away.

“Hmph, how arrogant!” Hearing this, an Upper Earthly Sovereign donned in purple robes laughed coldly.

His eyes flickered as he glanced at the Nine Dragons’ Deicide Array, then looked at the other three Sovereigns. “The three of you, if you don’t want to strike, give me the chance to do so. But you have to back off first.”

When the three of them heard his words, their gazes flashed. Then, one of them smiled and said, “So it’s the Zishan Sect Master. We have long heard that those in the Zishan Sect are experts at breaking arrays. Now that you have targeted this boy, we will give him over to you.”

The three people withdrew decisively, as they were unsure if Mu Chen’s arrogance was founded. If it was, they would be beaten severely if they clashed with him head-on. If it was not, they could let this Zishan Sect Master be the guinea pig!

These three also knew that the Zishan Sect Master would be on his guard against them. Therefore, they did not conceal themselves, but truly left.

Sensing the three people’s spiritual fluctuations going far away, the Zishan Sect Master turned his cold eyes to Mu Chen and sneered. “Ignorant child, do you really think a spiritual array can protect you? I’ll break your spiritual array today!”

He then charged swiftly into the Nine Dragons’ Deicide Array, while Mu Chen smiled cryptically. The three Upper Earthly Sovereigns, after reaching far from the area where Mu Chen was, each stopped. Their eyes closed slightly as they perceived a violent surge of spiritual energy fluctuations in the area.

“Zishan Sect Master really took action! That boy is going to suffer…” one of them said.

They all laughed, then waited quietly. Once Zishan Sect Master and Mu Chen were both wounded, they would then look for opportunities to make their moves. Their wait lasted about 15 minutes, and then their expressions changed, for they perceived that the violent spiritual fluctuations were rapidly dissipating.

“The results are out? So fast?” one of them remarked in surprise.

The three men were a little surprised, so their faces turned solemn. It seemed that they had been fooled by Mu Chen, as the boy was obviously putting on airs.

We let Zishan Sect Master gain so much for nothing. The three of them cursed internally, then stormed off, each heading in the same direction.

After a while, they came close to the forest, but at this time, the forest had almost been destroyed. As they stood in the air and looked into it, their pupils suddenly contracted.

They saw a young figure sitting quietly above a huge old tree in the middle of the forest. A massive spiritual array, although a little broken, was still in motion, and it loomed around him.

When the three people saw the young figure, their eyes were filled with horror. They did not expect that Mu Chen would be the one left standing!

Zishan Sect Master was nowhere to be seen. Clearly, Mu Chen had been the victor of their battle!

Fear and disbelief emerged in each of their gazes. Their strengths were around the same level as Zishan Sect Master’s, so if Mu Chen took such a short time to deal with him, he would not take much time to deal with them either!

“Do the three of you want to try too?” Mu Chen played with the battle seal that he had just obtained, while smiling at the three of them.

However, his smile suddenly appeared, as he was surprised to see that the three Upper Earthly Sovereigns did not hesitate to retreat swiftly. In the blink of an eye, they had disappeared completely.

Mu Chen looked at the now clear sky, then smiled in an exasperated manner. He stood up and looked at the battle seal in his hand and sighed. He knew that as soon as the three guys ran away and shared what had just happened here, he was going to be famous in the Upper Earthly Sovereigns battlefield.
