The Great Ruler

Chapter 1504 - Battle of Saints

When the golden palm descended, it was akin to that of a deity that was filled with destructive fluctuation. As if anything beneath it would be reduced to ashes.

This was the perfect fusion between Mu Chen’s Saint Physique and Middle Phase Immortal Heavenly Sovereign’s Spiritual Energy. In terms of might, not even an ordinary Saint Heavenly Sovereign could take it head-on.

Outside the city, all the spectators looked at Mu Chen with revere and fear in their eyes.

Maha You’s face was pale with dense fear and reluctance in his eyes. Back then, Mu Chen had only managed to fight with him on par, but the gap between them now was that of a ravine...

This attack from Mu Chen could annihilate him hundreds of thousands of times.

“Bastard, did you think that you can defeat my brother with this? You’re simply dreaming!” Maha You’s face was sinister as he stared at the sky. Looking with expectation in his eyes that his brother could crush Mu Chen.

Under everyone’s gaze, Maha Tian showed a trace of solemn in his eyes when he looked at the palm. Mu Chen’s attack had made him feel threatened.

“I can’t really underestimate this brat.” Maha Tian muttered to himself. Facing Mu Chen’s full force, even he did not dare to hesitate. Taking a deep breath, a black and white radiance emitted from his body that formed into a sturdy barrier that encased his body within.

“Spiritual Maha Shell!” A deep voice resounded as the black and white sphere hovered in the sky, permeating a divine brilliance.

The Spiritual Maha Shell was a pinnacle defensive Divine Ability of the Ancient Maha Clan with terrifying defenses. It was something that can even obstruct the attack of someone on the same level.

As the large hand descended, it quickly slammed against the black and white sphere under countless gazes. In that instant, the heavens and earth turned silent...

Under the violent maelstrom, the sphere was like a bolder that shot into the Primordial Immortal City.

The entire city also started to crumble with a destructive fluctuation spreading out. All the houses in the city were demolished in just ten-odd breaths, before the ancient city was reduced to ruins.

There was only a massive bottomless crater that existed in the center of the city.

When everyone looked at this scene, they knew that the two of them had restrained themselves. Otherwise, the area within a hundred thousand miles in radius would be reduced to ashes.

Mu Chen’s sharp eyes were akin to a hawk as he looked at the crater. The golden radiance around him, flickered and reflected on his body.

“The Patriarch of the Ancient Maha Clan is truly a difficult opponent...” Mu Chen muttered as he looked at the crater with a grave expression.

That attack from before had practically contained all of his power, but he could sense that Maha Tian managed to resist it.

A beam soared into the sky and everyone saw a black and white sphere rising.

The sphere was decorated with cracks, as if it was tottering on the verge of collapse. However, it did not shatter, which showed everyone its terrifying defensive capabilities.

As cracks spread out on the sphere, it gradually to dissipate and Maha Tian’s silhouette appeared within everyone’s sight once again.

Standing in the sky, Maha Tian suffered no injuries. Not even his clothes were damaged. However, there was a grim flash in his eyes.

Facing Mu Chen’s attack, he was actually forced to resort to his strongest defense.

What status does he have? He was the Patriarch of the Ancient Maha Clan and stood on the pinnacle of the Great Thousand World. Half a year ago, not even Mu Chen was worth his attention. After all, Mu Chen was just an ant that he could easily crush.

But after half a year, that ant in his eyes actually managed to force him to resort to his strongest defense.

It was a humiliation for Maha Tian. However, his rationale told him that he would suffer if he underestimated Mu Chen...

Taking a deep breath, he suppressed the rage reflecting in his eyes with an indifferent gaze. There wasn’t any of the contempt from before.

However, Mu Chen could sense that Maha Tian had perfectly circulated the Spiritual Energy within his body and disregarded all other emotions. The latter had entered a fighting state.

That meant that at this moment, Maha Tian had finally treated him like an opponent.

“It’s no wonder why he’s able to fight with the Flame Emperor back then...” Sensing those changes, Mu Chen’s eyes trembled. Maha Tian’s fame wasn’t fake, and in such a brief moment, the latter managed to get a clear view of the situation and went into his fighting state. That meant that the latter’s mentality was firm and unshakable.

“Mu Chen, you can proudly stand on the Great Thousand World to come this far at your age. If you had more time, I believe that there’s a seat for you at the pinnacle of the Great Thousand World.

“But that won’t be today. My Ancient Maha Clan has safeguarded the Primordial Immortal Body for so many years, so we can’t allow anyone to taint it!”

Maha Tian’s pupils circulated with black and white as his indifferent voice echoed out. Along with his voice, a powerful wave of Spiritual Energy gathered from his body and formed into a torrential ocean behind him.

As the ocean rolled, the heavens and earth trembled.

Letting out a bellow, the ocean of Spiritual Energy was devoured by Maha Tian and everyone could sense that the latter’s body was turning into pure crystals. However, it was being separated by black and white.

A terrifying pressure also permeated from his body that caused space to vibrate from the pressure.

“A Saint Spiritual Physique...” Looking at this scene, Mu Chen’s expression turned grave. From a certain degree, the Saint Spiritual Physique was also a powerful physique; however, it was inferior to his Immortal Physique, since it wasn’t a pure physique. It was the fusion between Spiritual Energy and the physique to bring a temporary change to the physique.

Although the Saint Spiritual Physique was inferior to his Immortal Physique, it was still terrifying with Maha Tian’s cultivation at the Middle Phase Saint Heavenly Sovereign Realm.

As Maha Tian charged, space was torn apart, and he appeared before Mu Chen. His fist flew through the horizon and bolted towards Mu Chen.

Watching this scene, Mu Chen’s gaze flickered before he crossed his arms together with a circulating golden radiance.

A muffled collision resounded along with a massive shock wave. Mu Chen’s body trembled and he was blown a myriad foot away.

Before Mu Chen could even stabilise his body, Maha Tian’s silhouette appeared and started raining down attacks.

Roughly a dozen breaths later, Mu Chen and Maha Tian had clashed over hundreds of rounds. Furthermore, Mu Chen seemed to be suppressed, since Maha Tian had fully brought out the might of a Middle Phase Saint Heavenly Sovereign.

“Mu Chen’s Spiritual Energy cultivation is too weak. Although his physique is powerful, he’s incomparable to Maha Tian.” Futu Xuan commented as he watched the fight.

When Xuan Guang and Mo Tong heard those words, they bitterly smiled. ‘Weren’t you satisfied with that? Half a year ago, Mu Chen couldn’t even receive a move from a Saint Heavenly Sovereign. But now, he can fight with Maha Tian to this level. What else do you want?’

Qing Yanjing smiled. “In a one-on-one fight, Chen’er will, indeed, be suppressed by Maha Tian. But don’t forget about the Divine Ability that Chen’er is good at...”

Futu Xuan was briefly stunned before he squinted his eyes. He saw Mu Chen suddenly halt. A black and white beam then shot out of his body and formed into two silhouettes.

The Three Pures!

As three Mu Chen stood in the sky, aside from his main body, the two clones were also permeating with a golden radiance. Evidently, the two clones also possessed a Saint Physique.

This was the advantage of the Three Pures. Whatever the main body possessed would also be reflected in the clones.

As a sharp piercing sound came from the front, Maha Tian appeared with a black and white radiance from his fist that circulated into a vortex.

But this time, Mu Chen did not retreat when facing Maha Tian. Letting out a roar, the three silhouettes punched forth with their fists and palms flying out, clashing with Maha Tian.

As another round of shock waves blew out, everyone was shocked this time because Mu Chen did not retreat even half a step...

Maha Tian’s face was grim as he constantly unleashed his attacks and afterimages.

The three silhouettes also brought their Saint Physiques to the pinnacle and faced those attacks.

A few minutes later, Maha Tian retreated with a grim expression. That’s because when Mu Chen executed the Three Pures, the latter was actually on the same level as him.

Facing Mu Chen, even his Saint Spiritual Physique couldn’t obtain an advantage.

Taking a deep breath, Maha Tian’s hands joined together with boundless Spiritual Energy exploding forth. At the same time, a black and white giant gradually appeared behind him.

Countless gazes looked at the giant with shock, along with exclamations that swiftly followed after.

“That is... ranked 8th on the 99 Rankings of Sovereign Celestial Bodies... the Mighty Maha Body!”

“Maha Tian was actually forced to take this step...”
