The Great Ruler

In the back mountains of the Mu Mansion

Mu Chen quietly sat on a mountain with boundless spiritual light fluctuating around him and a massive violet-golden giant behind him that absorbed the Spiritual Energy of the heavens and earth into its nose and vaguely emanated a booming noise that resounded.

He had cultivated for an entire day before he stopped. When the sun rose, he slowly opened his eyes and two beams of light shot out of his eyes, tearing the heavens and earth apart.

The Immortal Golden Body behind him had also gradually dissipated after a brief fluctuation.

That meant that his Immortal Golden Body had reached the limit, and if he wanted to increase the power of it, it would have to depend on his own strength.

“Your Immortal Golden Body has been perfected.” A voice suddenly rang out from his rear, so Mu Chen turned around and saw Qing Yanjing looking at him with interest as the Immortal Golden Body dissipated.

Mu Chen nodded his head. With just the Immortal Golden Body alone, he was already approaching Senior Heavenly Emperor.

“With your Immortal Golden Body, you’re now qualified to fight for the Primordial Immortal Body...” Qing Yanjing smiled.

Hearing the words “Primordial Immortal Body”, a fire flickered in Mu Chen’s eyes. It was his ultimate dream ever since he started cultivating the Great Solar Undying Body. He had continuously been looking forward to the ultimate form of it, the Primordial Immortal Body.

“However, the Primordial Immortal Body is under the Ancient Maha Clan’s control. I’m afraid it won’t be easy to obtain it.” Mu Chen sighed.

“The Immortal Emperor gave the Primordial Immortal Body to the Ancient Maha Clan for safekeeping, but they do not own it. According to the rules left behind by the Immortal Emperor, the Ancient Maha Clan has to host the Primordial Immortal Assembly, and everyone that has cultivated the Immortal Golden Body are allowed to attend for the Primordial Immortal Body to choose its master.

“However, the Ancient Maha Clan has been recently showing the attitude of keeping it for themselves and have been trying to obstruct the other cultivators. But it is a pity that they never succeeded in obtaining the Primordial Immortal Body’s acknowledgment.” Qing Yanjing mocked.

“They’ve safeguarded it for tens of thousands of years, so how would they hand it to someone else?” Mu Chen smiled. He wasn’t surprised by this. After all, he was clear about the temptation that the Primordial Immortal Body possessed. It was something that even the Ancient Maha Clan couldn’t resist.

After all, it was one of the five Primal Celestial Bodies in the world, and at the same time, it was created by the Immortal Emperor, the strongest powerhouse of the ancient times.

“But no matter how unwilling they are, I will definitely head to the Ancient Maha Clan when the Primordial Immortal Assembly is opened. Since the Immortal Emperor wants to find the best owner of the Primordial Immortal Body, I will naturally go and compete for it.” Mu Chen’s declared with his eyes flickered.

He had started out with the Great Solar Undying Body, then obtained the Immortal Golden Body, paying out countless contributions in the process, just so that he could obtain the Primordial Immortal Body. Thus, he would do his best, even if the Ancient Maha Clan was unwilling.

Back then, the Heavenly Emperor told him that he shouldn’t head to the Ancient Maha Clan before his strength had reached a certain level. But right now, he was no longer comparable to the past...

“Since my son has this heart, then I will naturally support you as your mother. If you’re able to obtain the Primordial Immortal Body, I won’t let the Ancient Maha Clan go if they dare to bully my son.” Qing Yanjing caressed Mu Chen’s head and said with dominance.

When Mu Chen heard that, he smiled and nodded his head. “Thanks, mother.”

Suddenly, his hand moved and a jade talisman appeared before it shattered and formed into a row of words.

Knitting his brows, Mu Chen looked at it and his expression changed.

“Nine Nether is in danger!” Mu Chen squinted his eyes, then he bounced up with an ashen expression. This talisman was something that Mandala gave him to inform him if there were any urgent matters.

Evidently, Nine Nether must have encountered a troublesome matter, which was the reason why Mandala sent a message over.

“What’s wrong with Nine Nether?” Mu Chen’s eyes flickered with ferocity. He shared an extraordinary relationship with Nine Nether. It wasn’t affection, but it was akin to that of a family member.

Back then, Mu Chen encountered her in the Northern Spiritual Realm, where they formed a Bloodlink Bond, and she has been protecting him since. This was the reason why Mu Chen maintained gratitude and respect for her.

This was also the reason why Mu Chen would be so emotional when he received this message.

“What’s wrong?” Qing Yanjing asked when she saw Mu Chen’s anxiety. In her eyes, Mu Chen was someone who’s normally composed, so there must be something serious for the change in his emotions.

“Mother, is the Teleportation Spiritual Array to the Greatlaw Continent constructed?” Mu Chen stretched out his hand and erased the words before looking at Qing Yanjing with a grave expression.

After a brief pondering, Qing Yanjing replied, “Normally, it would still require five days, but I will finish it in two days, since you look so serious.”

Generally speaking, even supreme forces couldn’t rush Qing Yanjing if she was helping someone to construct a Spiritual Array. But since it was her son, she decided to work harder on it.

“Then, I will have to trouble mother.” Mu Chen said, emotionally.

Qing Yanjing gently smiled. “You’re still speaking these words to your mother...”

After a brief pause, she looked at Mu Chen and asked, “What’s wrong? Do you need mother’s help?”

“An important friend is in trouble, but I’m not sure about it for the time being. So I have to return to the Greatlaw Continent, and see if I can handle it. I will not trouble the reunion between mother and father.” Mu Chen smiled.

“Because you’ve made him become the ruler of this Hundred Spirit Continent, he has been swamped these days...” Although Qing Yanjing grumbled, she did not go much into it. She smiled towards Mu Chen. “But since you’re so confident, then I won’t say anything. The news of you being my son has been spread throughout the Great Thousand World, so no one will take it too far with you. At least Saint Heavenly Sovereigns won’t make a move.”

Mu Chen nodded his head. Although he didn’t want to go around boasting about his mother, no one could change the fate between a mother and son. So it was considered a backing of him that could be used to intimidate his opponents.

Although Mu Chen wanted to rely on himself, he wasn’t stupid.

...

Two days later, behind the Mu Mansion

A thousand foot-wide Spiritual Array was constructed that emanated a terrifying spatial fluctuation, causing the surrounding space to distort.

Millions and millions of spiritual seals could be vaguely seen outlining a complicated construct that even Mu Chen couldn’t accomplish.

“Truly the work of a Saint Grade Spiritual Array Ancestor...” Mu Chen looked at the scale of this Teleportation Spiritual Array and couldn’t help sighing.

Qing Yanjing, Ling Xi, and Long Xiang were present here as well. It was so much so that even Mu Feng had come over. As for Tang Qian’er, she had returned to the Myriad Phoenix Spiritual Academy a few days ago.

“Stinking brat, be careful...” Mu Feng knew that Mu Chen had encountered something urgent, so he was a little worried as well. After all, the Great Thousand World was filled with experts, unlike the Hundred Spirit Continent.

“Pops, I’m no longer the same me who left the Northern Spiritual Realm back then.” Mu Chen helplessly smiled. Mu Feng had also said those words when he left.

“When the affairs in the Hundred Spirit Continent have settled down, I will bring your father over to take a look at the Mu Abode that you’ve established in the Greatlaw Continent.” Qing Yanjing smiled.

“Then, I will be looking forward to it.” Mu Chen smiled before he took a deep breath and nodded his head to them, then he stepped into the Spiritual Array.

Waving his hand, boundless Spiritual Energy poured into the Teleportation Spiritual Array. Instantly, the spatial fluctuation grew violent and the heavens and earth distorted before a spatial passage was formed behind Mu Chen.

“Pops, mother, I’ll make a move first.” Mu Chen waved his hand before he turned around and his eyes grew sharp. Looking at the spatial vortex, he took a step in.

At the same time, his hands also tightly clenched.

“Nine Nether, don’t be in danger...

“You’ve protected me in the past, so let me do it this time...”

The massive Teleportation Spiritual Array burst out with a myriad radiance before Mu Chen’s silhouette disappeared.
