The Great Ruler

Chapter 1461 - Nine Circulation Saint Art

While standing on the golden phoenix, halos started to appear behind Huang Xuanzhi. There was a total of eight halos, each of them emanating an ancient and mysterious fluctuation.

At this moment, Huang Xuanzhi looked like a deity under the golden halos, sacred and dignifying.

Along with an invisible pressure, the nearby ocean also started to slightly tremble.

When Kong Ling’er and company saw this scene, their faces changed with dense fear.

“This is the Phoenix Clan’s Peerless Divine Ability, the Nine Circulation Saint Art!” Kong Ling’er sucked in a mouthful of air as she squeezed those words out with fear on her face.

The Nine Circulation Saint Art was famous, even in the Great Thousand World. It was one of the 36 Peerless Divine Abilities, and it was on the same rank as Mu Chen’s Three Pures and Eight Divisional Pagoda.

It was said that when the Nine Circulation Saint Art reached the ninth nirvana, the cultivator would step into the Saint Heavenly Sovereign Realm. Thus, they could tell how terrifying it was. Not only did this Peerless Divine Ability have a harsh requirement, but there weren’t more than three who managed to cultivate it in the past tens of thousands of years.

Thus, everyone could tell how powerful this Peerless Divine Ability was.

Under everyone’s fearful gazes, Huang Xuanzhi coldly looked at Mu Chen with killing intent flickering in his eyes, since it hasn’t gotten his way from his fight with Mu Chen so far.

He thought that he could easily handle this battle, but it wasn’t as easy as he had imagined. It was so much so that he was even forced to bring out his strongest trump card at this moment, which made him feel humiliated...

Facing a Middle Phase Spirit Heavenly Sovereign, he had to use all his trump cards. If Mu Chen was on the same level as him, wouldn’t that mean that Mu Chen was more talented?

With his pride, this was something he couldn’t accept.

“Since you’re so outstanding... then I’ll destroy you.” Huang Xuanzhi’s face turned froze along with a chilling voice that echoed out, “Nine Circulation Saint Art - First Nirvana, Golden Soul Seal!”

The halos behind his head radiated before a golden beam shot out and formed into a golden seal that was a few thousand feet in size.

The scene looked extremely ancient, as if he had experienced war with a great fluctuation that trembled space.

The power behind this seal wasn’t any weaker than the Sun-Moon Phoenix Wings that he had previously executed.

“Go!” Huang Xuanzhi’s cold voice resounded and the seal appeared above Mu Chen, permeating a destructive power as if it could crush all lifeforms.

Raising his head, Mu Chen’s gaze flickered and the Immortal Golden Body unleashed a deep roar. Hundreds of Divine Immortal Runes gathered into a massive fist that clashed with the seal.

The entire ocean trembled from their confrontation, before the golden seal was sent flying out, and the purplish-golden fist also crumbled.

Without any ripples on his face, Huang Xuanzhi’s hands joined together and his cold voice resounded once more, “Second Nirvana, Phoenix Incinerating Sword!”

“Third Nirvana, Divine Phoenix Wings!”

“...”

“Seventh Nirvana, Phoenix Spiritual Blood Stone!”

Along with his voice, the halos behind him would burst out with a radiance as golden light condensed into a terrifying Divine Ability.

Along with the might from those Divine Abilities, all of them looked like actual Peerless Saint Artifacts.

“He has actually brought out seven abilities in one go!” Everyone outside the Deification Pool had their faces changed. All seven of them were extremely powerful, and they also had tremendous exhaustion. An ordinary Immortal Heavenly Sovereign could only execute three of them in one go, but Huang Xuanzhi did seven!

Evidently, this was also the profundities of the Nine Circulation Saint Art.

As the seven Peerless Divine Abilities hovered before Huang Xuanzhi, the terrifying power emanating from them constantly caused space to collapse, and even an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign would feel his scalp going numb when facing this ferocious attack...

“Try taking this again!” Huang Xuanzhi waved his hand with a sneer and the seven terrifying attacks flew out.

Outside the Deification Pool, everyone was nervous at this scene. Even with Mu Chen’s Immortal Golden Body, receiving the combined attacks of seven Peerless Divine Abilities would inevitably result in him being heavily injured.

Even Tian Huang had clenched her fists together as he stared at the mirror without blinking.

Under everyone’s gaze, Mu Chen had also raised his hand while looking at the seven attacks coming at him. The might from those attacks even made his eyes narrow.

However, his expression was still calm.

“Having quantity doesn’t necessarily mean victory.” Mu Chen faintly smiled. His hands joined together, and a patch of primal chaos rose up behind his back.

“Spiritual Pulse Divine Ability - Primal Chaos Buddha Ray!” The primal chaos rose up and shot towards the seven attacks.

In the path of the beam, one attack disappeared. However, Mu Chen had no expression on his face as he executed it once again. Ten-odd breaths later, all seven attacks were wiped out...

“How is that possible?!”

“That... what Divine Ability did that fellow use?!”

Everyone had shock on their faces. Even an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign wouldn’t dare to face Huang Xuanzhi’s attacks. But they were so easily dealt with by Mu Chen?

What Divine Ability was that ray of primal chaos?

While everyone was astonished, Huang Xuanzhi squinted his eyes at the primal chaos behind Mu Chen and faintly said, “This must be the Nine Divine Pulse that you’ve displayed in the Ancient Buddha Clan, right?”

Evidently, Huang Xuanzhi had quite a bit of information on Mu Chen.

“This Spiritual Pulse Divine Ability of yours has truly exceeded my imagination, even I find it troublesome. But it’s a pity that it has a huge exhaustion on your Spiritual Energy.”

Hearing Huang Xuanzhi’s words, a flicker of astonishment flashed within Mu Chen’s eyes. “It looks like you’ve investigated me quite thoroughly.”

Although Huang Xuanzhi was prideful, he was also a cautious person. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have so much information on Mu Chen, and even the latter’s fighting abilities.

Indeed, the Primal Chaos Buddha Ray was as peculiar as Huang Xuanzhi had said. It could dispel any attack, but every single use would require a massive amount of Spiritual Energy, which would increase with every target.

After executing it seven times, even Mu Chen felt that his Spiritual Energy had been exhausted by quite a bit.

“Seems like you’re trying to force me to use it on purpose.” Mu Chen said.

Huang Xuanzhi smiled and his hands joined together. The eighth halo behind his head radiated and a golden light gushed out, before gathering in his palm.

When the golden light dissipated, it had formed into a golden feathered-fan with golden flames flickering on it that occasionally flared and formed into the image of a True Phoenix.

“Eighth Nirvana, True Phoenix Incinerating Fan.” Huang Xuanzhi gradually waved the golden fan with an indifferent tone, before the temperature in the ocean boiled up and evaporated.

“I have once fought with a Middle Phase Immortal Heavenly Sovereign. He was burnt to death under my fan.” Huang Xuanzhi indifferently looked at Mu Chen as he continued, “And now, it will also be your outcome.”

“Then, I’m looking forward to trying it.” Mu Chen said as he stared at the golden fan.

The two of them stood in confrontation with calm expressions, but everyone could sense the chill in the atmosphere.

“Quick, flee!” Kong Ling’er pulled Lin Cang and Xiao Tian and they swiftly retreated. Everyone could tell that the battle was reaching the climax, with both sides fighting more ferociously.

Huang Xuanzhi’s gaze was only focused on Mu Chen. He gradually raised the fan in his hand, then abruptly fanned it down with a cold gaze.

When the fan dropped, golden flames gushed out, causing space to distort and collapse. It was as if the terrifying temperature could incinerate anything, and even the Deification Pool’s temperature had soared.

One fan boiling the ocean.

The golden flames massively flew out and enveloped Mu Chen and his Immortal Golden Body from every direction.

The flames could even turn a Middle Phase Immortal Heavenly Sovereign into ashes.

When everyone saw the flames enveloping the Immortal Golden Body, they all felt heavily relieved.

“That Mu Chen lost.”
