The Great Ruler

“Three Kowtows of the Corpse Deity, Total Annihilation!” When Shi Tianyou’s voice rang out, it had caused the entire region to freeze before a violent gale blew. The Spiritual Energy between the heavens and earth stopped, then all of it was being erased at this moment as the giant behind Shi Tianyou also lowered its head.

In that instant, when it lowered its head, space of around a few myriad feet started to collapse with fragments beginning to fall like rain.

Cracks also started to spread out on the ground and extended towards the surroundings.

When everyone saw this scene, they started to swiftly flee with shock covering their faces. They never imagined that the third kowtow would actually be so terrifying...

Qing Shuang and Qing Ling had also fled as they looked at the empty altar, where Mu Chen’s silhouette was looking extremely frail.

While everyone was fleeing, only he stood without moving regardless of the terror he was facing.

They wished to help Mu Chen, but they also knew that they couldn’t interfere in this battle with their strength. Not only them, but even Mo Xin and Xuan Luo also did not dare to interfere in the fight, either.

The battle between Mu Chen and Shi Tianyou has reached the pinnacle beneath the Heavenly Sovereign Realm!

Even if Mo Xin and Xuan Luo were Pinnacle Perfected Earth Sovereigns, and possessed Quasi-Peerless Divine Abilities, there was still a huge gap between them and the Three Kowtows of the Corpse Deity.

If they wanted to compete with the Three Kowtows of the Corpse Deity, then they would have to possess a genuine Peerless Divine Ability!

However, genuine Peerless Divine Abilities were something that belonged to the Heavenly Sovereigns. Even if their talents were outstanding, they still weren’t able to cultivate them...

Mo Xin and Xuan Luo cast a far away glance with deep fear and killing intent flashing in their eyes.

Both of them had underestimated Mu Chen’s strength. They initially thought that it wouldn’t take much for the two of them to capture him, but from the strength that Mu Chen has shown, they’d been too naïve.

“But that fellow will surely die now, and Shi Tianyou will pay a great price by executing the Three Kowtows of the Corpse Deity. At that time, we will be able to do both of them in!” The two of them came to an agreement with their gazes.

Evidently, after witnessing Mu Chen’s strength, they no longer had the confidence to deal with Mu Chen alone by themselves, so the safest method would be for the two of them to join hands together.

When the experts of the two factions retreated from the altar, Mu Chen stood amidst the torrential pressure with darkness covering eyes, as if he was at a land of death.

It was so much so that even the Spiritual Energy in this region felt like a puddle of dead water at this moment. No matter how much he tried, he couldn’t move.

Space had collapsed before him with this entire place being filled with darkness. The scene of Spiritual Energy stopping felt as if the apocalypse has arrived.

Mu Chen’s face turned grave as he watched the black hurricane that brought along a fishy smell that smelled of rotten corpses.

As the hurricane swept through, it had ripped all life with any life force before it was completely drained.

Mu Chen stood on the Immortal Golden Body while looking at the plains with the whistling black hurricane. Sensing the destructive aura, Mu Chen had slowly clenched his hands and veins wriggled on them.

Even he had to admit that the Three Kowtows of the Corpse Deity was too powerful. It was so much so that even he felt fearful.

He did not doubt that the slightest mistake would result in his death.

“Since I’m already forced to this extent, then let’s risk it all.” Mu Chen took a deep breath. At such desperate straits, his expression gradually calmed down, and even his eyes were closed.

Stretching his hands out, the Immortal Golden Body beneath his feet burst forth with millions of purplish-golden beam with every single one of them containing immortality aura.

The black hurricane whistled over with a purplish-golden giant quietly standing like an unmovable mountain.

When the hurricane was about to envelop him, a deep voice echoed from Mu Chen’s mouth, “Sovereign Ability - Immortal Lotus!”

The millions of purplish-golden beams burst forth and a lotus slowly appeared from the beams, with ancient runes engraved on them. Every single one of them looked to be born from nature, filled with Dao.

The lotus revolved with the petals starting to fold in when the black hurricane swept over, enveloping the Immortal Golden Body...

The entire region was enveloped in darkness. The experts of both parties had also stopped by the border of the darkness and looked at it with fear. There wasn’t a strand of life force in there.

Many experts of the Great Thousand World gulped down a mouthful of saliva with despair on their pale faces. Facing Shi Tianyou, they couldn’t even muster their courage to fight.

“That fellow is finally dead!” The experts of the Flame Demon Clan and Blade Demon Clan wiped their sweat as they spoke out with fear.

No one had expected a mere Greater Earth Sovereign to be so troublesome, and even someone as powerful as Shi Tianyou had to resort to the third kowtow.

But when Shi Tianyou made the third kowtow, they knew that Mu Chen was already dead, since no one has ever survived by the third kowtow.

“Big Sister Qing Shuang, how... how is Mu Chen?” Qing Ling couldn’t help tightening her fist as she anxiously asked.

Qing Shuang shook her head in silence, but her eyes were also filled with dense uneasiness.

After witnessing the annihilating third kowtow, even she did not believe that Mu Chen could survive it...

“Prepare to retreat.” Qing Shuang said. If Mu Chen really died, then they would lose all of their opportunities. At that time, they would have to swiftly leave here and activate the talisman that the Elder had given them to leave the Primordial Sacred Abyss.

Hearing those words, Qing Ling’s face couldn’t help turning pale.

“Mhm?” As the morale of those from the Great Thousand World dropped, someone suddenly exclaimed, “There’s golden light over there!”

Everyone raised their gazes and looked at the world of darkness with disbelief. There was a strand of purplish-golden light converging deep within the darkness.

The purplish-golden light turned stronger, and a few breaths later, it expanded, and everyone could see a lotus bud quietly standing in the darkness. The surface of it was covered in mottled traces, but it showed no signs of shattering.

Endless purplish-golden lustre gushed out from the flower bud that expelled the darkness. At the same time, the lotus blossomed and a massive purplish-golden lustre appeared before everyone’s view with a silhouette standing on the shoulder of that giant.

“That’s... Mu Chen?!” The experts of the Great Thousand World were all dumbfounded with their gazes filled in disbelief. The experts of the Flame Demon Clan, Blade Demon Clan, and the other Fiend Clans looked at that silhouette with despair as they muttered, “How is that possible?”

“How is that possible?!” Mo Xin and Xuan Luo’s faces froze.

“How is that possible?!” Shi Tianyou’s skeletal figure on the altar was stunned and his trail of thoughts had stopped.

Standing on the shoulder of the Immortal Golden Body, Mu Chen slowly opened his eyes and watched the golden light spread out. Even his tensed up body had loosened up.

“Immortal Lotus... the most powerful defense that the Immortal Golden Body possesses.”

Mu Chen looked at the Immortal Golden Body. He never expected the second Sovereign Ability would actually be so powerful.

Sighing in his heart, Mu Chen directed his gaze towards the dazed Shi Tianyou.

The giant figure standing behind Shi Tianyou was also thoroughly exhausted before it crumbled.

A mouthful of blood spewed from Shi Tianyou’s mouth, the blood was black and filled with deathly aura. At this moment, there’s no longer any life force in Shi Tianyou’s body. He was know someone on the edge of death; the price that he had to pay for executing the Three Kowtows of the Corpse Deity.

“You lost.” Mu Chen looked at Shi Tianyou as he spoke out. At this moment, Shi Tianyou had already lost all his fighting capabilities.

Hearing Mu Chen’s voice, Shi Tianyou’s blank eyes gradually recovered and looked at Mu Chen before revealing a sinister smile. “You think that you’ve won? Stop dreaming!”

“Monarch’s corpse, self-destruct!” He roared, then a black streak had separated itself from the ocean of Battle Will and arrived above the altar. The dried-up figure burst forth with endless demonic light before it exploded...

Mu Chen’s eyes narrowed at this scene. That madman had actually blown the Monarch’s corpse up, just what was he trying to do?!
