The Great Ruler

Chapter 760 - Cultivation Complete

Chapter 760 - Cultivation Complete

After separating from Huo Mei’er, Mu Chen returned to the location that he had previously used to cultivate. Because of the massacre that he had previously unleashed, the amount of Spiritual Fire Pythons was extremely few in number, so it was just suitable for him to use this spot for seclusive cultivation.

Mu Chen opened a hole in the cavern and directly entered. He sat down, closed his eyes, and gradually slipped into the cultivation state.

He wasn’t in a rush to refine the Spiritual Fire Marrow of the Fire Dragon Scorpion, he first chose to quietly cultivate to adjust his state.

Because he could sense the pure Spiritual Energy in the Spiritual Fire Marrow, it definitely would not be an easy task to refine the blazing Spiritual Energy. Therefore, he had to make preparations prior to refining it.

He needed to adjust his state to the pinnacle point.

This adjustment took an entire ten days. Within those ten days, Mu Chen was like a boulder that allowed time to flow as it pleased. There wasn’t the slightest impatience in him. He had his eyes shut, and sunk into his Sovereign Sea, allowing the Spiritual Energy to roar in waves.

On the tenth day, Mu Chen’s tightly shut eyes finally, slowly opened. There was an abstruse spiritual light fluctuating in his eyes. Even his skin was emitting a layer of glittering lustre.

This was a sign that the Spiritual Energy in his body had reached a limit.

After ten days of in-depth cultivation, Mu Chen could sense the fulfilment in his Sovereign Sea. Due to the fact that a Sovereign expert’s Spiritual Energy was too vast, it could only be contained in the Sovereign Sea. But the Sovereign Sea wasn’t without limits, it had to be expanded with the increment of one’s strength.

Therefore, if Mu Chen wanted to break through, he could only choose to attempt the Third Grade Sovereign.

“Almost there.”

Mu Chen slowly clenched his fist and sensed the vast and boundless Spiritual Energy that was similar to an ocean in his body. He couldn’t help letting out a breath of satisfaction. The joy that accompanied that strength was truly intoxicating.

With a flick of his finger, a scarlet light that was roughly the size of a foot appeared with crystal-like magma slowly flowing within it. The purity of Spiritual Energy even caused this cave to be a little hazy.

After summoning the Spiritual Fire Marrow, Mu Chen made another summoning gesture with a wave of his hand. A sparkling and translucent current flowed out and slowly floated in the air, emitting splashing noises.

This current was formed from over ten thousand drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid. Due to the fact that the Spiritual Energy contained in the Spiritual Fire Marrow was too overbearing, it required a gentle and pure Spiritual Energy to neutralise it, thus having the most perfect effect.

Mu Chen looked at the two costly treasures and couldn’t help smacking his lips. Aside from talent, resources were also crucial in the path of Spiritual Energy cultivation, such as the amount of Sovereign Spiritual Liquids required for this breakthrough. It was sufficient to cause those without any backings to helplessly sigh.

It was no wonder why the majority of those geniuses had powerful backings. Starting from young, that achievement was something that others could not acquire.

Mu Chen deeply sighed and shut his eyes once again. With the will of his heart, scarlet magma poured down from the Spiritual Fire Marrow that was floating above his head.

Splash! Splash!

When the boiling magma poured down from Mu Chen’s head, it instantly caused splashing noises and Mu Chen’s face had also turned distorted from the burning pain.

Magma poured down along half of Mu Chen’s body, covering him in layers. In just a few breaths’ time, half of Mu Chen’s body had already been covered in layers of magma.

Whoosh!

At the same time, the current that was formed from the drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid had also poured down, turning into crystals as they enveloped half of Mu Chen’s body.

At this moment, Mu Chen was quietly seated on the rock with half of his body covered in magma, while the other half was covered in glittering liquid. The two slowly flowed, turning into an extremely bizarre scene.

Just as the surface of Mu Chen’s body showed that bizarre state, there were also immense changes in his body.

As his mind was immersed, his body had turned red, as if the liquid of magma was penetrating into the pores on his body, before turning into tidal waves that covered every single corner in Mu Chen’s body.

Splash! Splash!

In the path of the magma, his flesh felt like it was about to melt as a surge of unbearable pain spread out, causing the meridians in his body to twitch.

The overbearing degree of the Fire Dragon Scorpion’s Spiritual Fire Marrow was many folds stronger than the Spiritual Fire Pythons that were only a century old!

But fortunately, Mu Chen had made his preparations as well. When the overbearing magma of Spiritual Energy poured into his body, the gentle and cooling Sovereign Spiritual Liquids had also swiftly poured over, coming in contact with the magma.

Splash! Splash!

Generally speaking, when Spiritual Energy of two different characteristics come in contact, there would definitely be a contest of strength. But due to the fact that the Sovereign Spiritual Liquid was extremely gentle, it was the easiest Spiritual Energy to refine and absorb. Thus, when the two Spiritual Energies came into contact, it had directly fused into the magma Spiritual Energy, dissipating the violence within the magma Spiritual Energy.

Mu Chen had also grasped ahold of the opportunity to immediately circulate the Great Pagoda Art, refining the Spiritual Energy in his meridians and poured it into his Sovereign Sea.

The sky was torn apart in the Sovereign Sea as magma poured down from the sky and into the Sovereign Sea, causing the ocean level to rise from the endless downfall.

Mu Chen’s cultivation had also started to get on track.

Another month gradually passed under Mu Chen’s cultivation.

On the stone platforms on top of the Greatlaw Blaze Pond, there were multiple figures quietly seated on the platforms that were breathing the heated magma of Spiritual Energy, using it to refine their physiques and meridians.

On a stone platform, Huo Mei’er quietly stood as Bing Qing and the three other Commanders gathered behind her.

“That fellow is not done cultivating?” Huo Mei’er lazily stretched her waist, entirely revealing her gorgeous curves. Her voice was soft and extremely bewitching.

Behind her, aside from Bing Qing’s gaze briefly stopping at her curves, the three other Commanders all had their eyes hung low, The surrounding warriors of the Great Havenlaw Army also had their eyes slightly narrowed and did not dare to look. Clearly, the Great Commander had a pretty revered position in the Great Havenlaw Army.

Bing Qing coldly nodded. “He should be attempting to break through to Third Grade Sovereign. It’s just that I don’t know if he can succeed.”

“He’s somewhat a little anxious.” Beside Bing Qing, a Commander shook his head. Mu Chen had just been cultivating there for two months, so the chances weren’t high for him to make his breakthrough.

“He has gotten a Spiritual Fire Marrow of the Fire Dragon Scorpion. If he can refine and absorb it, then he might succeed.” Huo Mei’er spoke with an alluring smile.

Hearing her words, the expression of Bing Qing and the other three Commanders slightly changed, since they clearly knew how terrifying the Fire Dragon Scorpion was. Even they might not he able to hunt it, so how did Mu Chen accomplish it?

“Earlier, Big Sister has said that you have obtained a Three-headed Spiritual Fire Python because it fought with a Fire Dragon Scorpion, right?” Bing Qing’s gaze slightly moved when she suddenly recalled the words that Huo Mei’er had previously said to her.

“Yeah, Mu Chen’s Spiritual Fire Marrow came from that Fire Dragon Scorpion.” Huo Mei’er nodded her head.

“It doesn’t seem to be following the rules for Big Sister to help him. The Ruler has said that he has to depend on himself to cultivate.” Bing Qing spoke with her brows slightly knitted.

“I did not help him.” Huo Mei’er lightly cast her lips and continued, “He did it himself.”

Hearing her words, Bing Qing was thoroughly stunned because Huo Mei’er had no reason to lie to her. But with Mu Chen’s strength at Second Grade Sovereign, even if the Fire Dragon Scorpion was heavily injured, he shouldn’t be able to kill it.

“The Ruler has said that he will have to get through the Nine-Nine Fire Dragon Array?” Huo Mei’er suddenly turned her gaze as she abruptly asked.

Bing Qing nodded her head before asking, “Does Big Sister think that he has any chance of success?”

“That’s a tough call.”

Huo Mei’er briefly pondered before shaking her head and lightly said, “The Nine-Nine Fire Dragon Array is the test for ascending to Commanders in our Great Havenlaw Army. Even a Fourth Grade Sovereign that isn’t familiar with it will have a hard time. But, right now, just breaking through to Third Grade Sovereign will be tough for him.”

“However...”

As she spoke, Huo Mei’er suddenly paused, thinking of how ruthless that youth was when he was facing the Fire Dragon Scorpion and pursed her lips. “You can’t belittle that fellow, too. So it will still depend on his capability, whether he can get through the Nine-Nine Fire Dragon Array or not.”

Bing Qing and the rest were a little stunned, since no one was optimistic of Mu Chen. But they never thought that Huo Mei’er would have a trace of uncertainty.

“Anyhow, we just need to watch. There’s only half a month left till the deadline of three months.” Huo Mei’er smiled as she looked down at the Greatlaw Blaze Pond with her gaze flickering.

Another ten days quietly passed under the wait of Huo Mei’er and the rest.

There’s only five days left till the deadline of three months.

Every warrior of the Great Havenlaw Army opened their eyes. Clearly, since an outsider was going to face the Nine-Nine Fire Dragon Array, they naturally had to witness the outcome.

But judging from the current situation, could it be that the brat named Mu Chen was intending to avoid it?

Someone couldn’t help grinning at the thought of that.

It was a wait that lasted three days.

Huo Mei’er sat on a huge rock with her fiery-red hair gently fluttering along the wind. Suddenly, her expression changed and she raised her head to see streaks of light flying over, before they floated in the air.

The one leading had a petite figure, but there was a terrifying pressure emanating from her. Within the Great Havenlaw Domain, aside from Mandala, no one else had such an oppressive pressure.

Behind Mandala, not only did Nine Nether follow, even the three Emperors and the various Kings follow her. It was a formation that made the warriors of the Great Havenlaw Army have expressions of astonishment.

“What a great formation for that kid.” Looking at this formation, Huo Mei’er made an alluring smile, before lowering her head. Suddenly, there was a huge vortex formed on the magma ocean beneath them.

Boom!

The magma soared into the horizon. As it rose, there was a figure standing on the magma that slowly revealed itself under the countless gazes.

The youth had a slender figure with a handsome face and a calm look in his black pupils. Clearly, Mu Chen had completed his cultivation at this moment.
