Mu Chen quietly sat within the tattered pagoda before his eyes abruptly opened with an intense crystallised lustre beaming out, along with a transparent pagoda that flew out.


    The Divine Pagoda constantly revolved before Mu Chen while expanding. Then it descended from the sky, enveloping Mu Chen and the Pagoda Ancestor’s will within it.


    As a crystallised lustre spread out in the pagoda, Mu Chen impatiently raised his head and looked at the walls of the pagoda. At this moment, there were eight portraits on the pagoda’s walls.


    The eight portraits looked sinister and emanated an ominous aura. Even ordinary people looking at it would be corrupted by the ominous aura.


    However, when Mu Chen looked at the eight sinister portraits, his face was covered with joy.


    “This is the Eight-Divisional Pagoda?” Mu Chen muttered to himself. At this moment, he did not dare to believe it, since it was one of the 36 Peerless Divine Abilities of the Great Thousand World.


    Not to mention a Perfected Earth Sovereign, even a Saint Heavenly Sovereign would be attracted by such a Divine Ability.


    Staring at the eight sinister portraits on the walls, a spiritual lustre gushed out from the portraits, and after that, the eight portraits immediately flew from the walls before they condensed and hovered in the sky, emanating a terrifying might.


    “This power...” A smile rose on Mu Chen’s lips. ording to his estimations, if he re-encountered Shi Tianyou, as long as he managed to trap thetter into the Divine Pagoda, Shi Tianyou would surely die the moment the Eight-Divisional Pagoda activated. As for Xuan Luo and Mo Xin, they didn’t even possess the qualifications to resist within the pagoda.


    The power of the eight protectors could suppress any expert beneath the Heavenly Sovereign Realm.


    Right now, Mu Chen held two of the most powerful Peerless Divine Abilities in the Great Thousand World. So his fighting capability was undoubtedly the numero uno beneath the Heavenly Sovereign Realm!


    “Truly the Divine Pagoda. The divinity of it is really peerless. Otherwise, I’m afraid it wouldn’t be that easy for you to control them.” The Pagoda Ancestor smiled from the side.


    The materials used for the Eight-Divisional Pagoda were genuine Monarchs, and they’re incredibly ferocious. If it wasn’t for Mu Chen having the Divine Pagoda, which cannot be tainted with evil, along with its sealing prowess, he might have had to spend a few years to nurture the Pagoda Cores before he could imprint them into his pagoda.


    Mu Chen nodded his head, as well. When the Eight-Divisional Pagoda unleashed its power, he could sense the ferocious and ominous might. If it wasn’t for the Divine Pagoda keeping them under control, he probably wouldn’t have it so easy.


    Clearly, even if ordinary people saw this Peerless Divine Ability, they couldn’t cultivate it. If they forced it, they might bring a disaster upon themselves instead.


    “Thank you, Senior!” Mu Chen looked at the Pagoda Ancestor and truthfully said. If it wasn’t for thetter taking a liking to him, he really might not have any fate with the Eight-Divisional Pagoda.


    The Pagoda Ancestor shook his head and smiled with his eyes narrowed. “This old man has to thank you for being able to let this Peerless Divine Ability of mine be passed down.”


    Mu Chen smiled but did not speak any more emotional words. He had a deeper respect for the Pagoda Ancestor in his heart.


    “Right, Senior, what about the Four Saint Pagoda now?” Mu Chen suddenly recalled Luo Li and asked.


    “Aside from the Spear Ancestor failing, the two otheryers are still well-preserved. The Four Saint Pagoda has practically stabilised by now, and the soul fragment of the Sky Monarch that escaped from the Spear Ancestor will also not be able to escape. Sooner orter, he will be thoroughly erased by the Four Saint Pagoda’s energy.” The Pagoda Ancestor smiled. It looked like the danger this time has been resolved.


    Mu Chen felt relieved at this. That meant that Luo Li’syer must have obtained victory; however, he didn’t know if the Ancient Spirit Channelling Light had fallen into the hands of Luo Li...


    As thoughts circted in Mu Chen’s heart, the Pagoda Ancestor raised his head and looked at the tattered Pagoda. After a brief silence, he smiled. “There’s still some Spiritual Energy left in this pagoda, let this old man grant you a small gift.”


    As he spoke, the Pagoda Ancestor waved his hand and a dazzling spiritual light gathered in the pagoda that looked realistic...


    The spiritual light whistled down. When it touched Mu Chen’s head, it converted into Spiritual Energy and was directly poured into Mu Chen’s body.


    When the Spiritual Energy appeared, Mu Chen knew that it was the intention of the Pagoda Ancestor, since thetter was trying to pour the remaining energy of the pagoda into his body to raise his cultivation a little more.


    As the spiritual light poured into Mu Chen’s body, the tattered pagoda swiftly dimmed down...


    Mu Chen’s body emanated light that was akin to a crystal. His flesh had also turned a little glittery from the boundless Spiritual Energy.


    His flesh had also started to emit an unusual fragrance. That was from the impurities in his body being cleared up and the fragrance from not having any contamination.


    As the spiritual light brushed through, Mu Chen opened his eyes once again and realised that the pagoda had also dimmed down with cracks crawling up on the walls.


    The Pagoda Ancestor’s silhouette had also started to fade, since it was his energy being exhausted.


    Mu Chen slightly sensed the glitter from his flesh and the powerful Spiritual Energy coursing through his veins.


    “Quasi-Perfected Earth Sovereign...” Mu Chen sensed it and knew his current condition. But he did not make thatst step and break through to the Perfected Earth Sovereign Realm, which made him feel relieved.


    “This old man has used his remaining energy to refine your physical body. As for what remained, I poured it into your body and helped you raise your cultivation to the Quasi-Perfected Earth Sovereign Realm. I did not help you break through.”


    The Pagoda Ancestor smiled. “This old man knows of your ambition, and in the future, you might even surpass this old man. So how can I force your growth and leave behind hidden dangers?”


    Scratching his head, Mu Chen awkwardly smiled.


    He was truly a little worried that the Pagoda Ancestor might raise him to the Perfected Earth Sovereign Realm out of a moment of joy. If that happened, perhaps he might be able to obtain a great power, but it wouldn’t be a good thing in the long term.


    The path of cultivation required one to move step-by-step. Mu Chen was talented, and his cultivation speed wasn’t slow. Thus, he did not require such a forceful increase; all he needed was for his cultivation to smoothly rise.


    With a sturdy foundation, only then could he have the chance to make an attempt at the Heavenly Sovereign Realm... or even the Saint Heavenly Sovereign Realm...


    ‘If it’s the Quasi-Perfected Earth Sovereign, all I have to do is make some adjustments before taking the Holy Spirit Pellet to break through perfectly.’ Mu Chen pondered in his heart.


    “Alright, this old man has practically given everything to you.” The Pagoda Ancestor pped his hands together and teased after Mu Chen had recovered.


    Mu Chen stood up and gave a sincere bow towards the Pagoda Ancestor. After all these years, the Pagoda Ancestor was the only one from the Ancient Buddha n that he respected.


    However, the Pagoda Ancestor did not get modest with Mu Chen, but epted Mu Chen’s bow. In terms of bloodline, he could be considered Mu Chen’s ancestor, so he was naturally capable of receiving thetter’s bow.


    “Mu Chen...”


    “Yes.” Mu Chen respectfully replied.


    The Pagoda Ancestor stared at him for a long time before he slowly said, “Regardless of the grudges you have with the Ancient Buddha n, the blood of the n flows within your body. I hope that you can promise me that if the Ancient Buddha n encounters the danger of being annihted, you will do what you can to help them.”


    Mu Chen was stunned since he’s only a Quasi-Perfected Earth Sovereign right now. Before the Ancient Buddha n, he’s akin to an ant, but the Pagoda Ancestor had actually said those words to him...


    Aplicated emotion rose up in his heart as he looked at the old man’s eyes that held expectations and gently nodded his head.


    Seeing that Mu Chen had agreed, the Pagoda Ancestor had a smile of great relief on his face. On the other hand, his body started to turn illusory and stones were constantly falling from the pagoda, being on the verge of copsing.


    “This old man will send you out... As for the mission to protect the Four Saint Pagoda, all of you have done well.” The Pagoda Ancestor waved his hand and a beam of spiritual light enveloped Mu Chen. It caused space to distort and immediately devoured him.


    Along with Mu Chen’s departure, the pagoda copsed with stones falling. This pagoda that had once caused tremors in the Great Thousand World had been reduced to ruins.


    ...


    As the spiritual lustre disappeared, amotion resounded from the surroundings. Sweeping his gaze over, he saw that he was actually out of the Four Saint Pagoda right now.


    There were also many silhouettes around him that had been sent out of the Four Saint Pagoda as well.


    “Mu Chen!” A crisp voice resounded, so Mu Chen raised his head with a smile appearing on his face when he saw Wen Qingxuan and Luo Li’s partying in his direction.


    “How was it?” Mu Chen looked at Luo Li as he asked with concern.


    “Fortunately, I did not fail.” Luo Li gently smiled. Her appearance had startled Mu Chen.


    “What about you?”


    Stretching his hand out, Mu Chen grabbed onto Luo Li’s hand and grinned. “We’re the biggest winners this time.”


    Xuan Luo and Mo Xin looked in the direction of Mu Chen with dark gazes before exchanging looks and muttered to themselves with eerie voices, “Winner? Talk about that if you can leave the Sacred Abyss Continent alive!”


    As they spoke, a jade talisman appeared on their hands and they crushed it. Spiritual light gushed out and enveloped the two of them before their silhouettes swiftly disappeared.
