“Throwing myself into the?” Mu Chen nced at Qing Shuang, who was furious, before he smiled and responded, “My mother has protected me for so many years, so I’m not stupid enough to be impulsive.”
“You know that as well? This is the Pagoda Realm, the headquarters of the Ancient Buddha n! With your cultivation at the Perfected Earth Sovereign Realm, any Elder here can easily capture you!” Qing Shuang red as she howled.
The reason why she took the risk to inform Mu Chen was to get him to hide well and not be detected by the Ancient Buddha n. But right now, that fellow had actually run over to their Ancient Buddha n, which made her feel furious.
“I’m afraid not any Elder can capture me.” Mu Chen smiled.
“You!” Qing Shuang knitted her brows. She felt that Mu Chen’s words were too arrogant.
But before she could continue to speak, Mu Chen took half a step forth and a terrifying aura burst out from his body, causing the surrounding heavens and earth to tremble.
Qing Shuang abruptly squinted her eyes, then looked at Mu Chen with shock. Although thetter had only released that terrifying pressure for an instant, she could clearly sense it from this distance.
That aura was something that even some Elders in the n couldn’tpete with.
“You... you’ve broken into the Heavenly Sovereign Realm?!” Qing Shuang’s eyes widened with disbelief on her face. When she met Mu Chen a year ago, thetter had just stepped into the Perfected Earth Sovereign Realm, but in only one short year, he had actually crossed the boundary into a Heavenly Sovereign!
How terrifying was his cultivating speed? What talent and opportunities were required for that?
As someone from the Ancient Buddha n, Qing Shuang was clear about how difficult it was to rise to the Heavenly Sovereign Realm. Even someone with the foundation of the Ancient Buddha n trying to rise into the Heavenly Sovereign Realm was tough.
Just like Xuan Luo and Mo Xin. The two of them were leaders of the Mo Bloodline’s younger generation, but even so, they only managed toe in contact with the Heavenly Sovereign Realm after using the resources of the Ancient Buddha n, but they had no idea when they could actually take that step out.
But right now, Mu Chen had stepped into the Heavenly Sovereign Realm before the two of them and took the lead. Thus, one could see how unbelievable this matter was.
“I managed a breakthrough with some fortune.” Mu Chen’s expression calmed down.
Qing Shuang was greatly shocked, before she finally recovered and looked at Mu Chen with aplicated gaze. She knew the shock it would bring to the Ancient Buddha n if this matter was disclosed.
Mu Chen, a sinner without the support of any resources in the Ancient Buddha n. Even if he was talented, there should be a limit. However, the reality would probably give everyone a resounding p and also tell them that even without the Ancient Buddha n, the sinner could still surpass the talents that they’ve been nurturing in the n...
“But... but even if you’re a Heavenly Sovereign Realm, you still can’te to the Ancient Buddha n!” Qing Shuang took a deep breath and said. Even if a Heavenly Sovereign was powerful, the Ancient Buddha n was still an existence that they couldn’t afford to offend. After all, the foundation in their Ancient Buddha n was deep. Not to mention a Spirit Heavenly Sovereign, even a Saint Heavenly Sovereign wouldn’t dare to cause trouble in the Ancient Buddha n.
“I know what I’m doing.” Mu Chen nodded his head.
Seeing Mu Chen’s calm gaze, Qing Shuang knew that her persuasion was futile. Thus, she could only sigh and lead the three of them into a serene courtyard.
“Can I tell this matter to Elder Qing Xuan?” Qing Shuang looked at Mu Chen and asked after making the arrangement.
After a brief pondering, Mu Chen nodded his head.
Qing Shuang felt relieved after his agreement and left.
Looking at her silhouette, Mu Chen turned around and said to Ling Xi and Long Xiang, “Don’t leave this ce unless it’s necessary for the next few days. We’ll deal with everything during the Bloodline Competition.”
After all, they’re in the Ancient Buddha n, and if their identities were revealed, it would inevitably cause trouble. Although they have the help of the Endless Fire Territory and the Martial Realm, it was still insufficient for Mu Chen to achieve his goal.
Ling Xi and Long Xiang nodded their heads. They had once stayed in the Ancient Buddha n, thus, they naturally knew about the foundation of this Ancient n. Now that they’re in the tiger’s den, they had to act with caution.
After instructing the two of them, Mu Chen flickered and appeared in the stone pavilion that was located in the courtyard and sat down. He raised his head to the sky and a spiritual light shed in his eyes, as if there were countless spiritual seals in his pupils.
Perhaps others would see boundless Spiritual Energy when they looked in the sky of the Pagoda Realm, but Mu Chen could see the massive Spiritual Array.
This Spiritual Array was the Protective Spiritual Array of the Ancient Pagoda n, and the profundity of it was something that even as a Spiritual Array Schr, Mu Chen still couldn’t understand it.
But he wasn’t trying to see through this Protective Spiritual Array, but trying to get familiar with it.
His sensingsted the entire afternoon. The flickers in his eyes only calmed down after the sun set.
“So it’s this way...” Mu Chen muttered to himself with a peculiar gaze. That’s because, as he sensed it, he realised that this Protective Spiritual Array actually contained some loopholes.
Those loopholes were extremely well-hidden, but Mu Chen could clearly sense them with the techniques that he had inherited, and if he wasn’t mistaken, those loopholes should have been left by his mother.
“Mhm?” Just as Mu Chen was pondering about this, his expression suddenly changed and his gaze fell onto a spatial fluctuation, where a silhouette appeared.
It was a gorgeous woman with a graceful bearing. It was Elder Qing Xuan, whom he had met in the past.
“Elder Qing Xuan is truly swift.” Mu Chen smiled as he looked at Elder Qing Xuan.
Elder Qing Xuan stared at Mu Chen before her silhouette suddenly moved and appeared before thetter. Her palm gently pushed out with radiance towards Mu Chen.
Although that palm didn’t seem to contain any strength, it had caused the stone pavilion to copse and the surrounding space trembled, looking on the verge of copsing.
When the terrifying palm flew, Mu Chen’s face was indifferent. He waited for the palm to fall before he casually brushed his hand against the palm.
A collision urred and Mu Chen’s silhouette did not move, but Elder Qing Xuan trembled and took a few steps back with the space beneath her feet shattering.
Stabilising her silhouette, Elder Qing Xuan did not make another moves, but looked at Mu Chen with aplicated gaze. “Qing Shuang previously told me about it, but I still couldn’t believe it. Now that I’ve experienced it, I see that you’ve really stepped into the Heavenly Sovereign Realm.”
As she spoke, a gratified light flickered in the depths of her eyes.
However, she soon retracted that emotion and sighed, “But you shouldn’t be here.”
“The Ancient Buddha n has caused me and my mother to be separated for decades, so why shouldn’t Ie?” Mu Chen indifferently said with a cold light flickering in his pupils.
Elder Qing Xuan bitterly smiled. “Even your mother, who is in the Saint Heavenly Sovereign Realm, couldn’t fight with the Ancient Buddha n, and you’re just a Spirit Heavenly Sovereign.”
“The Ancient Buddha n is powerful, but I don’t think the n can act fearlessly within the Great Thousand World, right?” Mu Chen calmly said without revealing any fear in his eyes.
Elder Qing Xuan was briefly stunned before she helplessly shook her head. She thought that Mu Chen was just speaking out of anger. After all, the Ancient Buddha n couldn’t act fearlessly within the Great Thousand World, but that was the case for Mu Chen as well.
“What do you want to do?” Elder Qing Xuan hesitated and couldn’t help gritting her teeth.
Mu Chen looked at Elder Qing Xuan and his expression loosened up. “Are you willing to help me?”
Elder Qing Xuan’s gaze turned dim before she answered, “She’s also my younger sister, but it’s a pity that our Qing Bloodline’s authority in the n is too weak. The Mo Bloodline and Xuan Bloodline are also constantly trying to suppress out Qing Bloodline, so we’re helpless in many matters.
“Back then, we’re unable to help your mother, and this time, we can’t let you get captured. If that happened, then the Qing Bloodline would be letting my younger sister and your grandfather down.”
Mu Chen fell into silence. He knew that the Qing Bloodline was glorious in the hands of his grandfather, and grew into one of the Major Bloodlines in the Ancient Buddha n. But after the death of his grandfather, his mother wasn’t willing to take over the Bloodline as the patriarch and left the n. In the end, she met with his father and gave birth to him, which was the reason why she’s being imprisoned.
“Can you tell me the current situation in the Qing Bloodline?” Mu Chen asked.
Although the Qing Bloodline was declining, it’s still a force if he could win them over. Mu Chen wasn’t an arrogant person trying to confront the entire Ancient Buddha n by himself.
Elder Qing Shuang bitterly smiled. “The current situation is worse than you have imagined. If the Qing Bloodline can’t show any performance in this Bloodline Competition, we will drop from being a Major Bloodline into a Branch Bloodline...”
Mu Chen knitted his brows. He never expected that the Qing Bloodline’s situation would be so severe. “What’s the Bloodline Competition about?”
