Chapter 869 - The Army Gathering


    “Beware...of my liege...”


    When that hoarse voice echoed throughout this region, the figure of the Fifth Commander hadpletely disappeared. Mu Chen solemnly looked in the direction of that disappeared figure and cupped his fists.


    “Four Spiritual Battle Formation...”


    Mu Chen cast his gaze towards the depths of the Death Ruin, which was enveloped in darkness that couldn’t be seen through. It made him feel a little uneasy.


    The five Kings had flown over, then one of them lightly said with doubt in their eyes, “Four Spiritual Battle Formation?”


    “There must be a genuine battle formation up ahead.” Mu Chen nodded with a grave expression.


    Hearing the two words “Battle Formation”, the eyes of the Kings shed with a smear of fear. That’s because they were clear that the battle formation set up by a Battle Formation Master would definitely be extremely powerful.


    Ordinary Spiritual Array Masters could borrow the power of the heavens and earth through arrays, whereas Battle Formation Masters had formed arrays with their endless troops. That sort of boundless Battle Will was something that even the heavens and earth feared.


    Although they had gathered nearly half of Great Havew Domain’s forces, they would also feel extremely fearful of a battle formation set up by a Battle Formation Master.


    They felt fearful, but they had no intentions of retreating. They had already made it this far, so if they were to retreat now, it would be an utter embarrassment.


    “Let us first refine the Fallen Origin Pellets.” Mu Chen retracted his gaze as he said.


    When the Kings heard Mu Chen’s words, their minds trembled before directing their attention at the boundless Fallen Origin Aura that was spreading out from what was left behind after cleansing that zombie troop.


    Far away, the other forces that were rushing here had seen the boundless Fallen Origin Aura as well, all of their eyes were red from greed. However, they were fearful of Mu Chen’s party’s luxurious formation and could only retract the greed in their hearts. After all, aside from the six Kings, there were also five troops eyeing them.


    Therefore, they could only watch as Mu Chen and the Kings move out to refine the Fallen Origin Aura into pellets, with an amount that reached nearly ten thousand.


    Such a harvest could beparable to a Grade-2 Ruin.


    When thest strand of Fallen Origin Aura was refined into Fallen Origin Pellets, only then did the Kings stop with satisfaction. This time, they had refined over nine thousand Fallen Origin Pellets. After they were distributed, each of them had obtained nearly two thousand, which was a significant harvest.


    “This Death Ruin is indeed a Grade-1 Ruin.” The Mountain Splitting King sighed. It was only a troop and they had refined nearly ten thousand Fallen Origin Pellets. If it waspared to Grade-3 Ruins, they would probably have to find 30 Grade-3 Ruins to match that harvest.


    However, despite the ample harvest, it was also exceptionally dangerous. If it wasn’t for their luxurious formation, their oue wouldn’t have been any better than the Martial Pole Sect’s.


    “Now...”


    The Kings looked at Mu Chen with seeking intentions. Before the Fifth Commander disappeared earlier, he had mentioned a terrifying battle formation deep within this ruin. Especially the ‘liege’ mentioned by the Fifth Commander, which should be the Sky Formation Emperor.


    Perhaps there might’ve been lots of treasures awaiting them, but the dangers harboured within were also extremely stunning.


    “Let us go take a look first. If it’s too powerful, then we’ll leave after harvesting some Fallen Origin Pellets.” Mu Chen sunk into silence for a brief moment, before speaking decisively. Although any information regarding a Battle Formation Master was extremely important to him, he couldn’t afford to let the Kings suffer a loss because of it.


    When the five Kings heard his words, they nodded their heads without any objections.


    “Let’s go.”


    Mu Chen cast a nce towards the depths of the ruin. Those spectators that were watching their battle with the zombie troop had also dispersed and there weren’t any fools that tried to rob them. Without any hesitation, he waved his hands and turned into a streak of light that flew towards the depths of the ruin, with the alliance following closely behind him.


    Their journey wasn’t calm. There were multiple zombie troops that endlessly poured out of the darkness and had heavily hindered their steps. However, as they didn’t have any better routes, they could only forcefully make their way in.


    After breaking the heavyyers of obstructions, they had also started to suffer casualties, despite their luxurious formation. If it weren’t for the Kings providing aid in time, they would have suffered even more serious casualties.


    However, even if the obstructions were powerful, they were slowly moving deeper and closer to the depths of the ruin.


    When they got closer to the depths, they could see several miserable groups. They were all from elite forces in the Northern Region, without anycking of Sixth Grade Sovereign experts overseeing the group. But even so, they were swallowed up by the tidal waves of zombie troops. Some who were quick with their feet managed to escape, while the rest were buried here.


    The defeat of those forces had caused a slight tremble in the hearts of Mu Chen’s party. Although they had a stronger formation, it was possible for all of them to be buried here if they were careless.


    Their formation was nearly half of the Great Havew Domain’s forces. If they were to be buried here, it would definitely be a serious blow to the Great Havew Domain.


    ...


    Tidal waves of troops whistled through the darkness and themotion even caused the sky to lightly tremble. Mu Chen sharply swept his gaze over thisnd that was before that troop, then a powerful Spiritual Energy undted around him in preparation to fight at any time.


    Along the way, it was just a mere few hundred miles journey and they had suffered the obstruction of more than ten zombie troops. It was so much so that they had even encountered a troop that wasn’t any weaker than themselves. That battle had caused them casualties and even the Spiritual Sword King had suffered injuries.


    The danger in this Death Ruin had far exceeded their expectations.


    “We should be deep in the Death Ruin now.” Mu Chen raised his head as he slowly said with a bright light in his eyes.


    When the Kings heard his words, they had instantly tensed their bodies. Nine Nether had swept her gaze around, before knitting her brows. “Why is it so quiet, without any silhouettes of zombie troops?”


    “The den of a tiger forbids the entry of other wild animals.” Mu Chen suddenly squinted his eyes as he looked into the distance and softly said, “Be cautious.”


    His figure had flown out with a surging Spiritual Energy protecting him his body. Behind him, the alliance had gone into a formation and followed him from behind with caution.


    The troop quietly flew towards a ck mountain range that was void of vitality, which was before them. Mu Chen’s figure had suddenly stopped and he suddenly narrowed his eyes with a shock that appeared on his face.


    Behind him, the faces of the Kings had also frozen. They couldn’t help inhaling a mouthful of chilled air a brief momentter.


    “What the hell...?” The Kings couldn’t help eximing out.


    The corner of Mu Chen’s lips twitched as he looked up ahead. Behind that mountain range was an endlessly dark in, with a massive zombie troop that had spread out. Those silhouettes were like trees that stood towering on the ground without any movements, but there was a majestic, rotten Battle Will that swept out, causing the entire heavens and earth to tremble beneath it.


    There were at least hundreds of thousands of troops here!


    Endless roars echoed from that army and the zombie troop had been spread till the end of their sights.


    Facing such a formation, even someone as powerful as the Kings couldn’t help feeling fearful. Those period troops that they had encountered earlier paled inparison to this.


    “It’s too powerful, we’ll be devoured by them, even if we go all-out.” The Mountain Splitting King spoke with an unsightly expression. His troop only had 20,000, at best. But, right now, their opponent had an army of a few hundred thousand with a genuine Battle Formation Master amongst them. Not to mention them, even if the Three Emperors were present, they would be extremely fearful as well.


    Mu Chen gently sighed while nodding his head. The Kings were all inferiorpared to him in the field of Battle Will. Therefore, he could tell how massive and powerful the Battle Will before them was with some vaguely abnormal undtions that made even Mu Chen feel that his scalp was numbing. If he had guessed correctly, there must be a genuine Battle Formation Master hidden amongst that army.


    The moment they fell into it, they would definitely be devoured by the army.


    Whoosh!


    Just when Mu Chen was hesitating at the current situation, there was arge scale of wind-tearing noises that resounded from the far right. They directed their gazes over and saw a huge army making their way over, before stopping outside the in like them. When they settled down, Mu Chen could clearly hear their shockedmotions.


    “It’s the Divine Pavilion!” The Mountain Splitting King eximed, “Those fellows havee as well.”


    Mu Chen nodded with a shake of his heart and looked at another direction. Just as he had expected, the army of the Sky Profound Pce had also managed to break through theyers of obstruction and made it here.


    But along with the arrival of these powerful forces, Mu Chen rejoiced, instead of being shocked. With these fellows here, then there’s a chance for them to break through this current situation.


    Just when this thought shed in Mu Chen’s heart, a light burst out from the direction of the Divine Pavilion and a gentle voice echoed.


    “Gentlemen, why don’t we discuss how to deal with the current situation?”
