The Great Ruler - Chapter 612

Chapter 612

The huge, ancient bronze mirror floated in the sky . The space around it was obviously twisted as if it were about to crash . It seemed the space couldn't support the existence of such a formidable divine artifact .

Everyone was watching the Mirror of Judgement with eyes full of awe and amazement . For many onlookers, it was the first time they saw such a powerful divine artifact .

"Are the following semi-finals related to this Mirror of Judgement?"

"According to Chief Tian Sheng's words, it is supposed to be this way…"

"That sounds interesting . "

"…"

Many people were whispering . Some of them were quite puzzled . This Academy Competition seemed to be different from the previous ones . There was no draw ceremony to pair up the teams . Some other way must have been adopted . However, this uncertainty made people more curious .

In the previous competitions, the Five Great Academies had never summoned the Mirror of Judgement . Therefore, it was a feast for the eyes for everyone this time .

Of course, not only the onlookers were puzzled . Even the four teams on the combat stages also cast their surprised glances towards the Mirror of Judgement . It seemed the contestants also didn't know how the following matches would be chosen .

In front of countless eyes, Chief Tian Sheng stood with his hands behind his back . Then he said with a smile, "Next, the four teams will enter the Mirror of Judgement . All of you share one goal – to walk out of the Mirror of Judgement!

"If all members of a team fail to walk out, that team will lose their qualification and be deemed a loser . "

Mu Chen and the other contestants narrowed their eyes a bit . It seemed the trial inside the Mirror of Judgement could even eliminate the whole team . Under the control of the five Chiefs, their lives wouldn't be endangered . However, once they failed, they would lose the qualification to strive for the championship .

"Do you understand?" Chief Tian Sheng asked slowly, looking at the four teams .

All members of the four teams nodded .

"Well…" Chief Tian Sheng nodded slightly and turned to the other four Chiefs . "Let's open the Mirror of Judgement!"

The rest of the four Chiefs stood up at the same time . After gripping their palms, four ancient bronze seals casting light appeared in their hands . Finally, five light beams burst out and shot onto the dull surface of the Mirror of Judgement .

Hum! Hum!

It seemed as if a strange hum was echoing between heaven and earth . The vast bronze mirror started to rotate . Along with the rotation of the Mirror of Judgement, the space around it was crushed bit by bit . Many scary cracks emerged, pitch black and bottomless .

While the Mirror of Judgement was rotating, its dusty surface gradually became clear and bright . Dim light was radiating from the mirror's surface as if it could penetrate the barrier of space .

On the combat stages, all members of the four teams were staring at the mirror's surface, which was becoming increasingly brighter .

Taking a deep breath, Mu Chen shouted in a low voice and waved his hand . "Let's go!"

Whoosh!

The instant his voice broke off, he dashed out and turned into a light beam streaking across the sky . The next moment, he dashed into the Mirror of Judgement and immediately disappeared . Behind him, Luo Li and the other three teammates followed him closely .

At the same time, the other three teams also dashed into the Mirror of Judgement without any hesitation .

When all the teams had disappeared, the Mirror of Judgement became even brighter . At last, a large image emerged in which the figures of the four teams were displayed .

Everyone widened their eyes to watch the trial of the Mirror of Judgement .

…

When Mu Chen and his teammates dashed into the Mirror of Judgement, dazzling light was radiating in front of their eyes . However, the radiance only lasted for a short while before the light dissipated .

Once the light dissipated, Mu Chen and his teammates were reflexively on alert . With spiritual energy covering their tense bodies, all of them were scanning the peripheral region with their vigilant eyes .

The next moment, all of them couldn't help changing their expressions .

It seemed they were standing in the depths of an extremely vast, chaotic sea . The sea was indeed boundless as far as the eye could see and gave them an unfathomable feeling .

In addition, this chaotic sea was emitting a formidable sense of pressure . The feeling could freeze the blood of Mu Chen and his teammates .

Their team was enclosed in a dim light shield, which separated them from the chaotic sea . However, even with the light shield, that indescribable sense of pressure kept infiltrating their bodies .

Mu Chen fixed his eyes on the chaotic sea outside the light shield . After a sudden twitch in his eyelids he said, "It seems this sea… is formed by an agglomeration of the spiritual energies . "

Upon hearing his words, Shen Cangsheng and the other teammates were greatly shocked . Then they started to look at the chaotic sea outside the light shield in fear . Could this sea be formed by pure spiritual energies? The spiritual energy could even be condensed into a substantial sea! How horrible the strength was!

Moreover, the thing that made them jumpy was it seemed they were just in this formidable sea of spiritual energy .

At the thought of this, Shen Cangsheng and the rest of the teammates turned pale . Even this sea of spiritual energy was not controlled by someone intentionally . The pressure of the spiritual energy alone was indeed too difficult for them to deal with .

Looking around, Mu Chen found another three light shields in the distance, where the other three teams were enclosed . Now the members of these three teams were also probing the place .

When Mu Chen was looking around, a vigorous and strong voice resounded suddenly in their ears . It was the voice of Chief Tian Sheng .

"The light shield which is protecting you will break after 10 breaths . The end of this sea of spiritual energy is right above you . Here you can take all kinds of measures and use any methods, as long as you can reach the end and walk out of the Mirror of Judgement . Of course, if all members of a team fail to walk out, the team will be disqualified . "

Hearing that, Mu Chen and his teammates narrowed their eyes and immediately tightened their muscles .

The time of 10 breaths quickly passed by . The atmosphere inside the light shield was quite suffocating .

Crack!

After the tenth breath, the light shield enclosing them immediately became dim . At last it cracked into light spots and dissipated .

Hardly any of the light shield had dissipated when the formidable sea of spiritual energy gushed in and inundated all five of them . The horrible pressure of spiritual energy was raging overwhelmingly .

In an instant, black lightning burst out on the surface of Mu Chen's body and began flashing . Obviously, Mu Chen had activated his Thunder God Physique . Even so, his body still sank down a bit . It seemed the horrible pressure of spiritual energy which was gushing in from all directions was about to crush his body .

Beside him, Shen Cangsheng, Li Xuantong and Su Xuan had already activated their spiritual energy to form protection on the surfaces of their bodies . But the next moment, all of them still sank down hundreds of feet . Their faces were flushed .

Only Luo Li could stay side by side with Mu Chen .

"The pressure of spiritual energy is really powerful!" Luo Li's pretty face was serious . Luckily, the sea of spiritual energy was not controlled by someone attacking them . Otherwise, they would have suffered great losses in an instant .

Mu Chen also nodded . He looked beyond and found the spiritual light was flashing in the distance . It seemed the other three teams were also doing their best to adapt to and resist the pressure of this sea of spiritual energy .

"Let's rush up!"

Mu Chen looked up and found the chaotic color of this sea of spiritual energy was boundless . It seemed it was not easy for them to rush out .

They had to finish the remaining journey, no matter how many difficulties they had overcome in the past and what challenges were awaiting ahead .

Luo Li nodded slightly .

Seeing that, Mu Chen took a deep breath . The black lightning on his body was even brighter . Six lightning runes instantly emerged on his chest . The next moment, he stomped his feet in the air to create an airwave, which blasted the surrounding liquid spiritual energy . Meanwhile, his body rose up like black lightning .

The black lightning was flashing around his body, resisting the formidable pressure and squeezing the sea of spiritual energy .

Behind Mu Chen, Luo Li was following him closely . The spiritual energy was rapidly flowing on the surface of her body . With a subtle method, she diverted some pressure to maintain her speed .

Not far behind them, Shen Cangsheng, Li Xuantong and Su Xuan were doing their best to keep up with them . It seemed they were walking in a swamp . Their spiritual energy was being rapidly consumed .

In the distance, the other three teams also had set off . Fifteen figures weaved their way in the sea of spiritual energy and dashed towards the end point .

Outside the Mirror of Judgement, everyone was focusing their eyes on the mirror's surface, which was displaying the image of twenty figures rapidly tearing the sea of spiritual energy apart .

Although the onlookers were not in the sea of spiritual energy, they were greatly surprised they could still sense the formidable pressure given off from the Mirror of Judgement . If they were placed in that sea of spiritual energy, it would be extremely difficult for them to move a single step, let alone reach the final destination .

In the sky, the five Chiefs were also staring at the Mirror of Judgement . Watching those twenty figures, their expressions differed from one another .

"Hehe, I wonder how many of them can walk out from the Mirror of Judgement," Chief Tian Song of the Azure Sky Spiritual Academy smiled and said with interest .

"It is not easy for them to walk out from the Mirror of Judgement . "

Chief Tian Sheng also smiled . With his profound eyes fixed on the mirror, he said slowly, "I think this time the people who can walk out of the Mirror of Judgement will be counted with one hand…"
