Chapter 1279 - Killing Intent


    When the palm and fist came into contact, the destructive power had instantly caused space around the two of them to copse. As if it had turned into a ck hole that devoured all light.


    With a sinister smile hanging on his lips, Gu Shihuang could practically see the scene of Mu Chen being crippled by him in the next moment.


    An ear-piercing noise resounded, but when it rang out, Gu Shihuang’s face drastically changed with shock in his eyes.


    That’s because, in that instant of the sh, he could clearly sense that the powering from Mu Chen’s fist far exceeded a Greater Earth Sovereign!


    It’s definitely not something that a Greater Earth Sovereign should possess!


    As visible shock waves swept out, a thousand miles in radius were leveled to the ground and even left cracks in the surrounding space.


    Mud sttered and Mu Chen’s body trembled before he was blown back by the impact. He took over a hundred steps back, leaving a deep footprint on the ground in the process.


    Gu Shihuang had also taken twenty-odd steps back. Although it might seem that he had the advantage, his face was dark as he stared at Mu Chen in shock and rage. He never imagined that in terms of frontal confrontation, Mu Chen had actually withstood his attack.


    Mu Chen managed to receive the attack of a Perfected Earth Sovereign with his cultivation at the Greater Earth Sovereign Realm?


    At that moment, Gu Shihuang felt disbelief. That palm of his wasn’t something that a Greater Earth Sovereign could face. Even a Quasi-Perfected Earth Sovereign like Long Xiang might be heavily injured if he was careless.


    However, Mu Chen could still jump and hop about after receiving a palm from him, showing no injuries.


    While Gu Shihuang was shocked, Mu Chen rubbed his fist with shock in his eyes as well. A Perfected Earth Sovereign was mighty. Although that jab of his might seem ordinary, it had thebination of the True Dragon and Phoenix Spirits, along with his amplified Spiritual Energy through the Divine Pagoda. It could even be said that not even Long Xiang could receive that move from him.


    But despite that, he was at the slight lowerhand when he shed with Gu Shihuang, so one could see how powerful the Perfected Earth Sovereign Realm was.


    But facing an enemy of this level, not only did Mu Chen show no fear, his eyes even zed instead. The path to bing strong required one to continuously challenge his limits, and this Gu Shihuang would be the first Perfected Earth Sovereign he faced.


    Turning his head over, Mu Chen gently waved his hand to Luo Li and Long Xiang to get them to join forces and deal with the other Perfected Earth Sovereign.


    Luo Li and Long Xiang nodded their heads before they soared into the sky and fixated their gazes on Liang Xiesha.


    “Hehe, a Quasi-Perfected Earth Sovereign and a Lesser Earth Sovereign. You dare to challenge me in this formation; you guys are simply courting death.” Liang Xiesha smiled at this.


    “Old Gu, I’ll help you after dealing with them!” Liang Xieshaughed before he pounced in the direction of Luo Li and Long Xiang.


    “Hmph, it’s just a mere Greater Earth Sovereign. It’s just a flip of my hand to deal with him.” Gu Shihuang snorted, feeling humiliated.


    After that, his cold gaze fixed onto Mu Chen like a venomous snake and boundless Spiritual Energy fluctuated from his body. It was like a realm that seemed massive and endless.


    Anyone could tell that Gu Shihuang had retracted his disdain and started to go at full force.


    Sensing the terrifying pressureing from Gu Shihuang, Mu Chen’s gaze flickered, and in the next moment, he took a deep breath before his hands formed seals.


    An endless luster burst from Mu Chen’s back and a purplish-golden ray converged into a Sovereign Immortal Body, the Immortal Golden Body!


    Along with the rise in his cultivation, the Immortal Golden Body had also grown to a thousand feet. But it was still tiny inparison to other Sovereign Immortal Bodies.


    However, looking at the tiny Sovereign Immortal Body, Gu Shihuang did not ridicule and his gaze turned solemn instead. He could clearly sense that when Mu Chen summoned the Immortal Golden Body, even he felt a little dangering from it.


    “What is this Sovereign Immortal Body?” Gu Shihuang knitted his brows. The Immortal Golden Body was so rare that even he couldn’t recognise it. But he could confirm that in terms of ranking, this purplish-golden Celestial Body was definitely within the Top 20s!


    Such a Sovereign Immortal Body wasn’t something that even he, a member of the Ancient Buddha n could possess.


    “Hmph, regardless of what Sovereign Celestial Body you possess, you are still limited by your own cultivation!” Gu Shihuang coldly snorted before he took a step forth. Instantly, spiritual luster gathered, and a few breathster, a ten thousand foot-high massive Sovereign Immortal Body was formed.


    This Sovereign Immortal Body emanated a silvery light that looked exceptionally crude, and shockingly, the head of this Sovereign Immortal Body was a lion’s head with an ominous aura emanating from it, instantly causing this region’s temperature to drop.


    Looking at the lion-headed Sovereign Immortal Body, Mu Chen’s gaze shed. “41st of the 99th Ranking of Sovereign Celestial Body, the Heavenly Lion Celestial Body?”


    This Sovereign Celestial Body was indeed not simple. When it appeared, Gu Shihuang’s face had turned solemn and the dangerous aura that emanated from him had practically reached the limit.


    “Mu Chen, you can be proud of forcing this old man to bring out his Sovereign Immortal Body with the cultivation of a mere Greater Earth Sovereign.” Gu Shihuang appeared on the shoulder of the Heavenly Lion Celestial Body before he looked down on Mu Chen, along with his indifferent voice that echoed out.


    In the past, unless he was facing someone of the same cultivation, Gu Shihuang would definitely not bring out his Sovereign Immortal Body. But today, he had brought out his Sovereign Immortal Body to deal with Mu Chen. Evidently, he felt a great uneaseing from him.


    However, Mu Chen did not care about his words and stomped his feet with his hands swiftly joining together with a deep and purplish-golden lustre rapidly appearing on the Immortal Golden Body.


    The Divine Immortal Runes!


    As Divine Immortal Runes started to condense, each of them was akin to a purplish dragon that coiled around Mu Chen. In just a few moments, the amount had already reached a stunning level of 50!


    Back then, when Mu Chen fought with Ling Zhanzi, he had only condensed 23 Divine Immortal Runes to reach his limit. But with his cultivation breaking through the Greater Earth Sovereign Realm, the amount of Divine Immortal Runes had also increased.


    As fifty Divine Immortal Runes surrounded Mu Chen, they emanated a terrifying fluctuation that caused this region to tremble from the pressure.


    Facing an enemy in the Perfected Earth Sovereign, Mu Chen clearly had no intention to warm up. He attacked without any hesitation.


    “Go!” Mu Chen waved his hand and the fifty Divine Immortal Runes flew out, forming into golden needles with peerless sharpness as they shot towards Gu Shihuang.


    Looking at the needlesing in his direction, Gu Shihuang briefly narrowed his eyes and snorted. He stomped his foot on the ground and the Heavenly Lion Celestial Body opened it’s mouth and roared.


    “Heavenly Lion’s Roar!” A Primordial Heavenly Lion’s roar resounded with violent shock waves and destructive prowess.


    This soundwave attack was extremely domineering, it could ignore defenses. If it was a Lesser Earth Sovereign that stood before Gu Shihuang, then this roar along could tear his opponent apart.


    The needles were obstructed before they were blown away by the oppressive soundwave. But fortunately, due to the profundity of the Divine Immortal Runes, they did not shatter, but the roar continued to move towards Mu Chen.


    “Truly a Perfected Earth Sovereign.” Mu Chen sighed. Gu Shihuang clearly excelled in soundwave attacks. Such an attack was tough to defend against, and if the soundwaves entered his mind, it would cause his Spiritual Energy to fluctuate, which was deadly in such a battle.


    But it was a pity that this sort of attack wouldn’t be able to restrain Mu Chen so easily. Because of the transformation characteristics of the Divine Immortal Runes, Gu Shihuang wouldn’t be able to restrict Mu Chen’s attacks.


    Mu Chen’s hands joined together, and in the next moment, the fifty Divine Immortal Runes dazzled before they swiftlybined. “Divine Immortal Runes - Myriad Transformation - Golden Immortal Bell!”


    A massive purplish-golden bell was formed before it swayed. An ancient ring echoed throughout that shed with the lion’s roar.


    Layers of space continuously crumbled, and at the point of collision, they had formed into a copsed space.


    Seeing how his soundwave was being dissolved, Gu Shihuang’s face was dark. He never thought that the purplish-golden runes would be so unique that they could change ording to Mu Chen’s wishes. Furthermore, every single change would bring along apletely different attack on the same level a Divine Abilities!


    It was a first for him to experience such profound means.


    Gu Shihuang’s face grew darker with killing intent in his eyes. The more outstanding Mu Chen showed himself to be, the more he couldn’t let Mu Chen live. After all, Mu Chen’s mother also had a towering status in the Ancient Buddha n and even some supporters. Just that all of them had gone silent with her imprisonment.


    If there’s a day when Mu Chen could return to the Ancient Buddha n, he would surely be a strongpetitor for the next Patriarch in the n, something that Gu Shihuang didn’t want to see!


    “This brat has to be dealt with today. Even if I can’t kill him, I must surely cripple his Divine Pagoda!” At this thought, the killing intent in Gu Shihuang’s heart soared to the limit.
