The Great Ruler

Chapter 1496 - Genuine and Counterfeit

As the dark-golden silhouette roared, the crimson patterns on it wriggled as a crimson light gathered in its eyes. There was also a terrifying dark-golden fluctuation rippling around it that caused space to tremble.

It was something that no one beneath the Saint Heavenly Sovereign Realm could face.

Facing the pressure permeated from the dark-golden silhouette, a ruthless expression flickered on Maha You’s face. In his view, the previous disadvantage was because the dark-golden silhouette was caught by surprise. But now that he had forcefully gained control of it, the fighting capability of it would be terrifying.

“Although I have no idea what that thing is, I will cripple you today!” Maha You sneered as the dark-golden silhouette flew out, leaving afterimages in the sky, making it undetectable.

While everyone outside the pagoda saw this, their hearts trembled. They knew that Maha You has roused the intention to kill. That dark-golden silhouette was terrifying, and probably only a Saint Heavenly Sovereign could suppress it. “That Mu Chen has truly enraged Maha You this time...”

Compared to the gazes, Mu Chen was calm as he looked at the dark-golden silhouette with a trace of astonishment. He was also taken aback by the fluctuation from the dark-golden silhouette.

“This variant one has devoured god-knows how much Immortal Origin of the Primordial Immortal Body to have such strength...” However, Mu Chen wasn’t afraid, he just gently nodded his head towards the silhouette beside him that was encased in a mysterious radiance.

The mysterious silhouette flickered and strode forth, standing before Mu Chen.

The dark-golden silhouette roared and threw a jab forth with a dark-golden torrent following it. It contained the power of the Immortal Origin and even a pinnacle Late Phase Immortal Heavenly Sovereign like Maha You would be instantly killed.

Facing the jab, the mysterious silhouette did not move. It only gently stretched out its hand and guided the force.

When the destructive fluctuation connected with its palm, it had instantly been tamed and shrouded around the mysterious silhouette before being devoured by it.

“What?!” Maha You’s face drastically changed. He never expected that the mysterious silhouette would be able to resolve that attack so easily.

“How is that possible?” Gnashing his teeth, Maha You controlled the dark-golden silhouette once more. In the next moment, the dark-golden silhouette roared and unleashed a power that was akin to a massive dragon as it flew towards the mysterious silhouette.

However, the mysterious silhouette wasn’t in a rush when facing that attack. Any of the dark-golden current that got within a certain distance around it would be tamed before being devoured...

Thus, an unusual situation occurred. No matter how the dark-golden silhouette attacked, the power would be tamed and dissipated once it got close to the mysterious silhouette.

Looking at this scene, Mu Chen wasn’t surprised, but smiled. After all, that dark-golden silhouette was only a variant, and the source of its power was the Primordial Immortal Body’s power.

With the genuine Primordial Immortal Body here, it’s wishful thinking to use the Primordial Immortal Body’s power against it...

After numerous attacks were devoured by the Primordial Immortal Body, the dark-golden silhouette’s radiance dimmed down. It had also sensed the loss of its energy and unleashed roars. Its eyes were fixed onto the Primordial Immortal Body with greed. Although it was fearful of the latter, it could undergo a drastic transformation if it could devour the Primordial Immortal Body and turn into a lifeform.

After suffering a huge loss, it no longer dared to use any Immortal Origin. Its body started to swell into a giant with destructive force in its movements.

The dark-golden giant stomped on the ground and appeared before the Primordial Immortal Body then threw a jab over.

That jab was simple, but it contained such absolute strength that even the entire region was trembling.

But when the jab was about to hit the Primordial Immortal Body, a hand stretched over and gently blocked the fist.

When the two hands connected, a metallic clash resounded and space violently collapsed. But shockingly, that mysterious silhouette was akin to a boulder as it stood unmoving. On the other hand, the dark-golden silhouette was thrown a myriad foot from the impact.

Before the dark-golden silhouette could unleash a roar after stabilising itself, the mysterious figure appeared and slammed a palm against its chest.

With a loud explosion, the dark-golden silhouette’s chest collapsed and was thrown out.

In just ten-odd breaths, the dark-golden silhouette was being played with like a ball flying around. Under every gentle palm, the size of that dark-golden silhouette would also shrink...

Outside the pagoda, everyone sucked in a cold breath with fear on their faces. They never expected that the dark-golden silhouette would be so powerless...

This wasn’t a battle on the same level!

Even Qing Yanjing and Futu Xuan had widened their eyes at this scene. They exchanged a look with shock. They never expected that Mu Chen would have such a powerful trump card.

“What is that mysterious body?” Their hearts were filled with doubt. Despite looking through the mirror, even Saint Heavenly Sovereigns like them felt that it was unfathomable.

The Elders of the Ancient Maha Clan were pale, including Maha Tian. His hand grabbed ahold of the white-jade pillar before him and cracks started to spread out.

“Damn it, what’s going on? Didn’t Maha You obtain the Primordial Immortal Body? Why is it so weak?! What’s that mysterious silhouette?!” Maha Tian’s gaze was cold as he issued a holler in his heart.

...

With another clash, the dark-golden silhouette was sent flying and was riddled with holes. There were palms imprinted on its body. Those palms were flickering with a gem-like radiance that constantly corroded its body, causing the dark-golden brilliance to dim.

Sensing the situation, the dark-golden silhouette felt even more uneasy. It then broke free from the crimson control and recovered...

A mouthful of blood gushed out from Maha You’s mouth with shock in his eyes. In that instant, he sensed that the Saint Talisman within the dark-golden silhouette’s body has shattered.

Breaking free of Maha You’s control, the dark-golden silhouette regained control of itself and looked at the Primordial Immortal Body with fear.

It was the fear of facing someone who was superior.

Thus, it unleashed a fearful roar and wanted to flee. It no longer dared to fight with the Primordial Immortal Body.

But just when it wanted to escape, the halo behind the Primordial Immortal Body slowly rose up then descended, enveloping the dark-golden silhouette.

Along with it’s radiance, the dark-golden silhouette howled in despair as its body was swiftly being melted from the brilliance...

Despite the howls, it couldn’t resist. In just ten-odd breaths, it had shrunk to a palm-sized dark-golden pellet.

The dark-golden pellet was covered in mysterious runes that contained unimaginable Immortal Origin.

With a gentle suction, the Primordial Immortal Body devoured that dark-golden pellet.

When the dark-golden pellet was devoured, thunder suddenly rumbled in this region with enraged dragons of lightning roaring from the horizon.

At this moment, the Primordial Immortal Body radiated with a brilliance that shone down on the heavens and earth.

At this moment, everyone outside the pagoda could vaguely sense an indescribable mysterious pressure permeating from the Primordial Immortal Pagoda.

That was a fluctuation that even made Saint Heavenly Sovereigns feel fearful.

Looking at that mysterious silhouette, everyone suddenly gained a comprehension with shock in their eyes.

So... that mysterious figure iwa the genuine Primal Celestial Body, the Primordial Immortal Body!

That dark-golden silhouette was merely a counterfeit!

No wonder it was so powerless before that mysterious silhouette!

That was the absolute suppression of the genuine against the counterfeit.

Even Qing Yanjing was shocked and Futu Xuan took a deep breath. So the mysterious silhouette that Mu Chen has obtained was the real Primordial Immortal Body?!

Maha Tian shattered the pillar before him while looking at that mysterious silhouette. A brief moment later, his head was filled with anger and killing intent before he transmitted his voice to the Elders of the Ancient Maha Clan, causing all of them to tremble.

“Give out the orders. The Ancient Maha Clan is to prepare for battle...”

His eyes had turned red as he looked at Mu Chen’s silhouette with a sinister expression on his face.

“You little bastard, you dare take something from my Ancient Maha Clan?! Even with the Ancient Buddha Clan’s protection, I will make you spit it back out!”
