The Great Ruler

“Would you like to try again?” When Shi Tian You heard Mu Chen’s challenging tone, a cold light flashed in his eyes. He smiled coldly and said, “Do you think that by adding some men, you will be able to contend with my Demon Emperor Corpse? You are so naïve!” He waved his hand and said ruthlessly, “Wipe out every single one of them!”

Roar!

The Demon Emperor Corpse roared the moment Shi Tian You finished his sentence. Powerful demonic aura swirled out from its body again. It raged through the area and caused the place to shake. In the face of the demonic power, the top powers from the Great Thousand World became fearful. Even powerful people like Mo Xin and Xuan Luo looked grave.

Swoosh!

The Demon Emperor Corpse turned into a demonic light and dashed toward the Mystery Dragon Troop that was now formed by 5,000 warriors.

“Ha.” Mu Chen snorted when he saw it. He triggered his thoughts, and the vast fighting spirit of the 5,000 Mystery Dragon Troops surged. Suddenly, the area darkened, and the Fighting Spirit Ocean surged vigorously. A large Fighting Spirit Dragon appeared out of the Fighting Spirit Ocean, and when it opened its mouth, vast Fighting Spirit Dragon Breath poured out it. It carried with it a destructive fluctuation as it darted toward the Demon Emperor Corpse.

Roar!

The Demon Emperor Corpse roared continuously and did not retreat. In the face of the Fighting Spirit Dragon Breath, it opened its withered mouth, and a large amount of Demonic Smoke whizzed out from it and clashed hard against the Fighting Spirit Dragon Breath.

Boom! Boom!

When the two collided, the heavens and the earth quaked. An indescribable windstorm raged out, and many top powers who were below got swirled up in it and flew away. Although they were caught in the windstorm, they continued to fix their gazes on the fight that was taking place in the sky.

After the windstorm dissipated, the Fighting Spirit Dragon Breath and the Demonic Smoke stayed in the sky for a while before they exploded. From the looks of it, the power of the two seemed to be about equal. Apparently, with the increase of 2,000 men in the Mystery Dragon Army, Mu Chen’s fighting spirit was enough for him to take on the Demon Emperor Corpse.

The top powers around the altar shouted with joy. Those top powers who had been flustered because of the Demon Emperor Corpse finally heaved a sigh of relief.

“He made it!” Qing Ling widened her eyes and looked at Mu Chen in disbelief. That was a Demon Emperor Corpse. Even Mo Xin had been sent flying off by it, but Mu Chen was able to contend with it with the help of a troop.

Qing Shuang, who was beside Qing Ling, bit her lips and looked at Mu Chen with a baffled look on her face. She was greatly shocked by what she had seen.

While Qing Ling and Qing Shuang were taken by surprise, Mo Xin and Xuan Luo’s faces had darkened. They used to enjoy being in the limelight, but now they had lost their status and had taken on the role of spectators.

While the crowd was shouting with joy, Shi Tian You furrowed his brows and looked at Mu Chen. He looked even more grave. Although Shi Tian You had obtained the Demon Emperor Corpse, Mu Chen had taken control of the powerful army that had killed the Demon Emperor back then. With the troop’s help, Mu Chen was not afraid of his Demon Emperor Corpse.

Light glittered in Shi Tian You’s eyes. He then stared at the gray stone coffin that was at the center of the altar with a covetous look. The spirit of a Heaven Demon Emperor was in the coffin. If he could get hold of the spirit and refine it, he would be able to truly step into the level of Demon Emperor. Regardless of the means that he had to use, he had to break the seal to obtain the spirit of the Heaven Demon Emperor.

Shi Tian You waved his hand, and the Demon Emperor Corpse dashed toward the troop. On the other hand, he retreated and flew toward the top of the altar. His actions caused an uproar in the area. All the top powers in the Great Thousand World knew that once Shi Tian You broke the seal and released the spirit of the Heaven Demon Emperor, no one would be able to walk out of the place alive.

Mo Xin and Xuan Luo were shocked and immediately dashed out to stop Shi Tian You. They knew that only one person could obtain the inheritance, and it would be the one who had contributed the most. Mu Chen was dealing with the Demon Emperor Corpse, and they could use this opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

“Stop there!” A voice shouted out just as they were about to move. The Balrog Commander and the top power from the Demon Blade Clan appeared before Mo Xin and Xuan Luo to stop them.

“Scram!” Mo Xin and Xuan Luo shouted. A spiritual energy windstorm burst out and swirled toward the Balrog Commander and the top power from the Demon Blade Clan.

Boom! Boom!

Both parties fought again, and the fight was so fierce that it shook the entire area.

Mu Chen saw what Shi Tian You had done, and his gaze froze. He knew Shi Tian You’s intention, and he would not allow Shi Tian You to have his way.

Mu Chen moved away from the troop. He turned into a streamer and darted toward the altar. As for the Mystery Dragon Troop, the black Mu Chen and the white Mu Chen were holding the fort for him. With their power, they could still control the fighting spirit and contend with the Demon Emperor Corpse, although it was easier when the three Mu Chens joined forces.

Mu Chen landed on top of the altar and fixed his gaze on Shi Tian You. When Shi Tian You saw Mu Chen, he immediately stopped moving. He glared at Mu Chen and asked thoughtfully, “You are very bold. How dare you forsake your troop to stop me single-handedly? You are just an Upper Earthly Sovereign. Do you think you are up to it?”

Mu Chen simply smiled and said, “You have to try and see for yourself.”

“This is a good idea. I shall try it then!” Shi Tian You smiled viciously and suddenly disappeared from the spot where he had been standing. The space surged, and indistinctly, a shadow pierced through the space and shot toward Mu Chen.

Mu Chen looked nonchalant. He stomped his foot hard, and several spiritual seals whizzed out from his sleeve and merged into the void around him.

“Blazing Fire Array!” Mu Chen shouted, and a large spiritual array instantly took shape. Vast spiritual energy gathered around him, and a large figure that was burning at a high temperature appeared before him. It then punched out hard at a stretch of space warps.

Bang!

The space was crushed, and Shi Tian You appeared. He looked at the Blazing Fire Array that was before him and cold light flashed in his eyes. He bent his knees slightly, and in the next instant, he turned into afterimages and appeared before the large Blazing Fire Figure.

His palm was a like blade, and it was filled with death-gas. As he waved his palm, it pierced through the space and stabbed into the chest of the large Blazing Fire Figure. Black death-gas expanded speedily and within seconds, it covered the Blazing Fire Figure. The Blazing Fire Figure was smashed, and the Blazing Fire Array broke into pieces.

He is so powerful! When Mu Chen saw it, his gaze froze. He had not expected Shi Tian You to be so powerful. The Blazing Fire Array had appeared only for a short while, and Shi Tian You had destroyed it.

“Now, it is time to send you to your grave!” After Shi Tian You had destroyed the Blazing Fire Array, he smiled viciously at Mu Chen. He shifted his body and appeared before Mu Chen. He threw out a blow, and death-gas gathered in the blow as though it would devour anything that had life in it.

When Mu Chen saw it, light flashed in his eyes. The crystal spiritual energy gathered around him, and his palm turned into crystal. It then hit directly against Shi Tian You’s blow.

Boom!

The ground that they were standing on was made of special material. However, it cracked, and the dense death-gas covered Mu Chen’s palm crazily, trying devour his life. However, Mu Chen’s palm exuded crystal light and sealed off the death-gas.

As their palms hit each other, light burst out from Mu Chen’s eyes. A Crystal Pagoda shot out from his eyes and expanded into a huge pagoda, covering Mu Chen and Shi Tian You.

The sudden change of events took Shi Tian You by surprise, and he frowned. Mu Chen had not moved earlier, but instead took him head on with a purpose. His intention was to trap him in the pagoda.

The death-gas surrounded Shi Tian You, and he looked warily around the pagoda. Suddenly, he saw a crystal ball in the pagoda, and a special yellow wind was whizzing crazily inside the crystal ball. Shi Tian You felt threatened by the yellow wind’s aura.

“Have you sensed it?” Mu Chen looked at Shi Tian You and smiled flatly. He then formed a seal with one hand, and the crystal ball at the top of the Holy Pagoda turned dim. The seal outside the crystal ball started to disappear.

Howl! Howl!

After the seal disappeared, the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind that was trapped in the crystal ball burst out. Mu Chen triggered his thoughts, and the Holy Pagoda was filled with the power of a seal. It controlled the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind and turned it into a windstorm, directing it toward Shi Tian You.

The yellow wind raged in the Holy Pagoda, carrying with it a horrifying aura. Shi Tian Yu turned pale when he saw the windstorm whizzing toward him. He immediately took a deep breath and spewed out a vast amount of death-gas. The death-gas was sticky, and it turned into an ocean and covered him up.

Just as Shi Tian You had completely protected himself with the death-gas, the raging spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind whizzed violently on the death-gas ocean.

Mu Chen looked at the scene with curiosity, as he was interested to find out the power of the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind that he had decided to seal up at the last moment.
