The Great Ruler - Chapter 1148

Chapter 1148




"Scram!"

Mu Chen growled coldly . He was wrapped within the majestic spiritual energy, which spread like waves .

In the distance, the strong men hurriedly avoided the waves, then looked at Mu Chen with rather startled stares .

They obviously had not expected that, in the face of such a figure as Xia Yu, Mu Chen would actually give such a simple and rude answer! In fact, he had shown no respect to Xia Yu at all, and Xia Yu was the Crown Prince of Great Xia Dynasty, who was a top figure and ranked fourth in the List of Powerhouses!

Among the young generation of the Tianluo Continent, few people could surpass Xia Yu . Moreover, Xia Yu's reputation was not based on his status, but on his impressive battle experience . In the face of such figures, even Garuda and Su Qingyin would be cautious!

"This Mu Chen is too overbearing . . . " one of the strong people murmured in a low voice .

Although Mu Chen's fame had grown recently, compared to Xia Yu, who was a renowned supreme talent, Mu Chen was clearly still lacking . More and more people started commented on Mu Chen as well . . .

"Yes, but it's not easy to get there at such a young age . Mu Chen is still impressive . "

"Haha, since Mu Chen was able to obtain the identity of Disciple of the Golden Dragon, he must indeed be impressive . If this Xia Yu really wants to start a fight, I think his victory or defeat would be difficult to predict . "

"What a joke! How can this Mu Chen compare with Xia Yu? I think he found a flaw in the Dragon Entrance Gate and he got by on his good luck . "

As the murmurs spread in the distance, Xia Yu crossed his arms in front his chest and stood on the Golden Dragon Token Amulet . He stared at Mu Chen, the smile on his face disappearing little by little .

"It's been a long time since I met a young man who dared to make such an arrogant fuss in front of me . " Xia Yu looked down at him and said nonchalantly .

"Well, now you have!" Mu Chen retorted uncaringly .

Xia Yu had picked on him with vicious means every time he had the opportunity . Im fact, had he not wanted to get the baptism of the Heavenly River as soon as possible, he would have attacked him already . Now that this guy was trying to snatch the Heavenly River Spirit Crystals, Mu Chen had decided to no longer take this lying down!

A chilling glint flashed in Xia Yu's eyes, as he nodded and said, "Oh well, since you are determined to court death, I will grant your wish! Then, I will return your corpse to the Daluo Territory . "

Mu Chen smiled a fearless smile, then they began to exchange barbs, neither party backing down .

"It seems that the spiritual array around you gives you great confidence . " Xia Yu ridiculed him .

In his view, Mu Chen only dared to provoke him because he was surrounded by a spiritual array . Does this boy not know that, although the spiritual array is strong, someone has to step into its scope in order for it to be able to exert its power?

In the face of a spiritual array that was expertly arranged by a Spiritual Array Master, any sane person would not step into it stupidly . So, if Mu Chen wanted to goad him into entering the spiritual array, that was undoubtedly a gross miscalculation on his part!

In particular, the outermost spiritual array that had been arranged by Mu Chen caused even scared Mu Chen himself! If Xia Yu entered it, he knew that he would not have the confidence to easily break through it .

Facing Xia Yu's mocking threats, Mu Chen's mouth curved into a sarcastic smirk, "You have the courage to provoke, but yet you remain cowardly . You are a pitiful man . "

Upon hearing that, Xia Yu's face turned cold . He stared at Mu Chen with a sharp knife-like glare, as if he wanted to cut him up into a thousand pieces!



However, Mu Chen did not pay any attention to him . Instead, he only smiled and said, "Since the Crown Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty is such a cowardly man, then I will suffer a few losses this time, lest others say that I bullied you with my spiritual array . "

After saying this, the Golden Dragon Token Amulet floated out and Mu Chen left the scope of spiritual arrays . As such, Mu Chen voluntarily gave up the spiritual array fortress, not because he was overly arrogant, but because he knew that Xia Yu simply did not have the courage to step into it .

As such, his staying would only drag out the time . As time was precious at the moment, Mu Chen decided that he must go and scramble to capture the Heavenly River Spirits in a race against the clock!

Moreover, it was indeed impossible for him to hold the spiritual arrays any longer . After all, if Xia Yu was to be backed into a corner, he might resort to using shady and ruthless means to deliberately tempt some Heavenly River Spirits to collide with the spiritual arrays, causing Mu Chen to face danger in the future . Instead of letting this happen, Mu Chen decided to take the initiative and put the spiritual array fortress in the rear to be on the lookout, thus preventing any changes in future circumstances .

"Tsk tsk, Mu Chen actually gave up the spiritual arrays! What confidence . " In the distance, one of the strong men saw this scene and exclaimed . After all, giving up his best means to face the enemy really required courage and self-confidence .

"Now, it seems that Xia Yu is being cowardly . As the Crown Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, he is so hesitant! No wonder he cannot match up to Garuda and the rest . " someone in the crowd of onlookers shook his head and said .

Mu Chen's actions had won him praise, as the crowd now despised Xia Yu . While Xia Yu was hearing the disparaging words from afar, his face turned green with rage . He had not realized that Mu Chen's taking a step out could put him in such a low position!

If he had won the battle, people would be saying that he had won unfairly, and if he had lost, he would have been only a stepping-stone for Mu Chen . So, no matter what the outcome was, he seemed to have been doomed before the battle ever properly begun!

"How manipulative!" Xia Yu uttered, his face grim .

He was frustrated that he had fallen into Mu Chen's manipulation . This boy was young, but cunning as a fox! It was no wonder that even Xia Hong had lost to this little punk!

Mu Chen smiled in response, as he could sense his opponent's frustration . If you want me to give up a great mean of attack, you will have to pay a price in exchange!



However, although public opinion of him was unfavorable, Xia Yu was still an extraordinary person . He took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart, then looked at Mu Chen expressionlessly . In his eyes, there was a strong aura of murderous intent .

Xia Yu slowly dropped his arms, causing the vast spiritual power to suddenly burst out of his body like a volcano . At that moment, a domineering spiritual oppression spread throughout the entire space .

In the distance, many strong people could feel this spiritual pressure . This was the power of a true Complete Grade Nine! This Xia Yu clearly had the capability to aim for a breakthrough to become an Earthly Sovereign, so it looked like Mu Chen was in grave danger this time!

"I will show you that, in the face of absolute power, your attempts at manipulation are ridiculous!" Xia Yu's face was cold, as he swung a vicious blow towards Mu Chen with his palm .

Rumble!

At the moment his palm landed, a vast spiritual power gathered and transformed into a dragon . An air of nobility radiated out from its massive body, as if it could dominate tens of thousands of people!

"Great Xia Dynasty, Imperial Ruler Divine Palm!" Xia Yu yelled, then dealt the blow, as his palm gathered the dragon aura of the Great Xia Dynasty .

Boom!

The massive dragon then transformed into a palm of the dragon seal, as it shattered the space and descended upon Mu Chen . The aura of the Imperial Ruler that converged upon it was both noble and domineering .

Mu Chen raised his head to see that Xia Yu's palm seems understated, so he commented, saying, "A mere tiny Dynasty dares to call himself the Imperial Ruler . . . "

Mu Chen's face was calm as he spoke the words . He saw the Great Xia Dynasty as being just a dominion force, whose aura was still lacking .

Mu Chen clasped his palms together gently, causing a bright golden light to erupt from within his body, then surge outward . Everybody could see a real dragon's and phoenix's silhouettes appear behind Mu Chen, both soaring high and emitting impenetrable airs of majesty .

This was the majesty of the real dragon and phoenix, the kings of the Dragon and the Phoenix Clans! They were rulers of the Great Thousand World and were superior beings . Thus, their auras were much more majestic than the Great Xia Dynasty's .

Within Mu Chen's eyes, the real dragon and phoenix circled . Then, with a single blow, the spirit of the real dragon and phoenix roared and entangled around his palm, immediately transforming into golden light and charging out .

Rumble!

Two huge punches pierced the void, each emitting a noble majesty, then finally colliding with each other . As the two terrible forces clashed with each other, the spirit of the real dragon and phoenix surged out, locked in a violent battle with the Dragon of Imperial Ruler .

Boom boom boom!

The river shook, and Xia Yu's face turned solemn, for he saw that the Dragon of Imperial Ruler had been weakened by the bite of the real dragon and phoenix spirit! Although his Dragon of Imperial Ruler was equally overbearing, it was clear that his spiritual aura and power were weaker than those auras of the real dragon and phoenix .

"I didn't expect you to have the real spirit of the dragon and the Phoenix!" Xia Yu's eyes turned cold, his gaze containing hints of greed . If he could just get his hands on the real dragon spirit, then devour it, it would certainly increase his combat effectiveness!

"This man must die today!" Xia Yu's eyes were full of murderous intent, as he waved his sleeves and quickly withdrew the increasingly frail Dragon of Imperial Ruler . He then stamped his feet, causing the shimmering silhouette behind him to condense rapidly .

The silhouette was clothed in golden dragon robes and was wearing a crown, as if it was ruling over everyone . As such, it exuded a noble and invincible aura .

In the distance, many strong men looked at the silhouette, their pupils suddenly shrinking . One of them exclaimed in wonder…

"Is that the Imperial Ruler Celestial Body, which is on the List of 99 Sovereign Celestial Bodies?"
