As the ancient pagoda hovered, eight sinister demons hovered around it and emanated a baleful aura that caused the nearby space to distort.


    “This is... the legendary Eight Divisional Pagoda?!” When the eight demons appeared, amotion broke out around the Deification Pool. Someone had naturally recognised it.


    “Mu Chen not only cultivated the Three Pures, but he also cultivated the Eight Divisional Pagoda, that’s also one of the 36 Peerless Divine Abilities.” Many people were speechless. There were only 36 Peerless Divine Abilities that stood at the pinnacle of the Great Thousand World, so everyone could see how precious they were.


    Even someone like Huang Xuanzhi only cultivated one of them, the Nine Cirction Saint Art. However, Mu Chen had learnt two!


    Just how shocking was it? Even Huang Jin looked at the mirror with an unsightly expression. He never expected that not only would Mu Chen resist Huang Xuanzhi’s ultimate move, he even started to unleash ferocious attacks.


    The Elders of the Real Phoenix n also wore grave expressions with traces of concern. That’s because, at this moment, who couldn’t tell that Huang Xuanzhi’s advantage was getting smaller?


    With Mu Chen’s cultivation now at the Initial Phase Immortal Heavenly Sovereign Realm, he wasn’t any weaker than Huang Xuanzhi. In addition to the Eight Divisional Pagoda, how terrifying would he be?


    “I hope that the Young Patriarch can take it. As long as he resists this attack from Mu Chen, thetter will be weakened, and it will be a great opportunity!”


    “Right, as long as he makes it through this, that Mu Chen will lose!”


    ...


    While discussions broke out amongst the spectators, Huang Xuanzhi still stood on the golden phoenix and coldly looked at the eight demons. His thoughts were the same as the Elders of the Real Phoenix n.


    As long as he could make it through this attack, Mu Chen would surely be beaten down to his original cultivation.


    “Since you want to fight, then I will fight with you!” Traces of blood crawled on Huang Xuanzhi’s eyes. As the Young Patriarch of the Real Phoenix n, he was also a prideful person. Even if Mu Chen was all-mighty, he didn’t believe that Mu Chen could do anything to him if he put on his best defences.


    However, Mu Chen wasn’t bothered with Huang Xuanzhi’s cold gaze, but looked at the eight demons. He formed seals with a single hand and a towering pir of light soared into the sky with boundless Spiritual Energy that trembled the ocean.


    As the pir soared into the sky, the eight demons released ferocious roars, as if they were revived. They opened their mouths and started to absorb that massive pir of Spiritual Energy...


    After devouring the boundless Spiritual Energy, the baleful aura around them soared, making those spectating the Deification Pool to feel a chill down their spines. It was as if the demons hade to life.


    After all, those eight demons were forged from the corpses of hundreds of Monarchs... In the Great Thousand World, that would be equivalent to hundreds of Heavenly Sovereigns. Just that alone was terrifying.


    Looking at Huang Xuanzhi without any emotions, Mu Chen’s hands suddenly joined together.


    Along with the changes of his seals, the eight demons also formed simr seals and eight crimson beams interlocked together into an octagonal formation.


    A baleful aura surged from the formation and started topress itself into a crimson sphere.


    The sphere was covered in crimson runes with a baleful aura that could cause the Spiritual Energy residing within a Spirit Heavenly Sovereign to go wild.


    Sensing the fluctuation, Huang Xuanzhi squinted his eyes and his expression was a little distorted with astonishment. Evidently, he felt threatened by the sphere.


    However, Mu Chen did not give him any time to think. He took a deep breath, and his voice resounded, “Eight Divisional Pagoda - Pagoda Demon Jade!”


    The Baleful aura surged throughout this region as the eight demons unleashed a violent roar that shook the heavens and earth. At the same time, that crimson sphere also shot towards Huang Xuanzhi.


    In the path of that crimson sphere, space violently copsed and the destructive prowess made those spectators outside the Deification Pool to widen their eyes.


    Deep in the ocean floor, Huang Xuanzhi could feel a chill surging up from his feet. He could feel the aura of death at this moment.


    If that crimson sphere struck him, even he could fall here.


    “This is the might of the Eight Divisional Pagoda? It’s truly terrifying!” Huang Xuanzhi’s gaze flickered with ferocious light. Since he couldn’t flee, then he could only put his life on the line. Even if Mu Chen’s prowess was terrifying, he, Huang Xuanzhi, was not a pushover!


    Huang Xuanzhi roared as he swiftly formed seals and bit on his tongue with a mouthful of blood essence gushing out.


    The blood essence was gold. Huang Xuanzhi’s face turned a little pale; however, he couldn’t be concerned about that at this moment. A golden halo started to spin and devoured his blood essence.


    After devouring his blood essence, the golden halo started to expand with an indescribable might permeating out, along with golden beams shooting out.


    This time, there were a total of eight golden beams that circted Huang Xuanzhi. He had brought out all eight of the Divine Abilities at the same time, but even after the eight attacks were unleashed, the halo did not stop spinning. As it rotated with great difficulty, the ninth golden light was slowlying out.


    With Huang Xuanzhi’s current strength, he couldn’t willingly execute the ninth Divine Ability, so he could only force it at this moment.


    Looking at the ninth golden beaming out, Huang Xuanzhi’s gaze ferociously flickered and another mouthful of golden blood essence poured into the halo. This time, the ninth golden beam was finally condensed...


    But due to him forcing it, the halo started to crack.


    This made Huang Xuanzhi feel heartache, since he knew that even if he wins today, he would require a long period to recover from the damages he would suffer.


    “Damn you, Mu Chen!” Huang Xuanzhi gritted his teeth with cold light flickering in his eyes. “Since you want to defeat me, then I will let you know how na?ve you are!


    “Nine Cirction Saint Art - Ninth Nirvana, Phoenix Alms Bowl!” His voice suddenly rang out and the nine means abruptly converged together before forming into a massive golden alms bowl with a True Phoenix on it that issued a crisp cry and phoenix mes that could incinerate the heavens and earth.


    As the phoenix alms bowl circted, it enveloped Huang Xuanzhi. This was the most powerful divine ability of the Nine Cirction Saint Art. Although he was forcefully executing it, the power couldn’t be underestimated.


    Huang Xuanzhi’s eyes had turned red as he fixed his gaze on Mu Chen. He refused to believe that Mu Chen could break through his defence!


    As long as he resisted this attack, he would grasp Mu Chen’s life and death!


    “Come!” Huang Xuanzhi’s voice caused many people outside the Deification Pool’s to change as they watched the crimson sphere descend from the sky and crash against the phoenix alms bowl...


    In the next instant they connected, the entire region trembled with myriad waves rising across the ocean floor. It was so much so that the explosions even caused a storm that enveloped the whole mountain range...


    Many experts from the Divine Beast ns’ faces changed. They knew that the Deification Pool was an individual space. But even so, the fight between Mu Chen and Huang Xuanzhi had also affected here!


    Just how terrifying was that confrontation?!


    However, everyone had their eyes glued on the mirror as the destruction continued tost for a few minutes before it gradually dissipated.


    Along with everyone’s gazes, even Huang Jin and Tian Huang had held their breath as they looked at it.


    As the light gradually disappeared, the scenery cleared up once more. Instantly, everyone squinted their eyes. The phoenix alms bowl was flickering with light as the crimson sphere was swiftly shrinking in size...


    “He blocked it?!” At the sight of this scene, the Elders of the Phoenix n instantly had joy on their faces. They could sense that the crimson sphere’s power was swiftly diminishing.


    A few breathster, the crimson sphere had been reduced to the size of a human’s heart.


    At the same time, Huang Xuanzhi also had joy on his face, victory was in his grasp!


    However, a sudden crack resounded and Huang Xuanzhi narrowed his eyes. He saw a tiny crack on the alms bowl.


    That crack was only the beginning, and when it appeared, it swiftly spread out and covered the entire alms bowl in a breath.


    At the same time, only the crimson sphere still remained after it was palm-sized.


    “You lost.” Mu Chen said without any emotions.


    Along with Mu Chen’s words, the phoenix alms bowl had also reached the limit and instantly exploded...


    Huang Xuanzhi had fear on his face as the wings of a phoenix immediately spread out behind him. He wanted to retreat.


    But all of a sudden, the crimson sphere fell against his chest...


    Half of Huang Xuanzhi’s body exploded, and even the golden phoenix beneath his feet stiffened before it burst apart.


    Like a broken kite, Huang Xuanzhi’s silhouette fell.


    The atmosphere outside the Deification Pool also froze at this moment.
