Boom!
Spiritual energy that was as powerful as a volcanic eruption raged in the trading area. The space shook, and many Sovereigns' faces changed as they retreated quickly.
Even the Complete Earthly Sovereigns looked at Mo Xin warily. The Young Lord of the Budur Ancient Clan had a well-deserved reputation indeed.
Amid many fearful glances, Mo Xin's gaze locked onto Mu Chen, his eyes as sharp as a hawk's. In the next moment, he stepped out and charged towards Mu Chen. He moved so fast, even the Complete Earthly Sovereigns could only see some vague afterimages.
"He's so fast!" Many of the Sovereigns were shocked and exclaimed out loud. When facing such a speed, they didn't even have time to defend themselves before Mo Xin's fatal attack landed on them.
"You are not worthy enough to even talk to Mu Chen!" Facing Mo Xin, who was charging at her swiftly, Ling Xi was the first to retort in anger.
If they had to compare their statuses, Mu Chen was no less inferior to Mo Xin in the Budur Ancient Clan. However, it was clear that Mo Xin despised Mu Chen, based on his disdainful tone.
Thus, Ling Xi's face was cold. With a wave of her hand, countless stars melted into the space and a spiritual array took form immediately, enveloping Mo Xin within it.
Roar!
In the spiritual array, powerful spiritual energy converged swiftly, then materialized into a Dragon-Lion. As the Dragon-Lion roared, its roar emanated a ferocious aura. Then, the Spiritual Energy Dragon-Lion suddenly transformed into a bolt of lightning, then charged towards Mo Xin fiercely.
"Spiritual Array? Such a trifling trick..." Facing the charging Dragon-Lion, Mo Xin smiled mockingly.
Then, without stopping, he dealt out a punch. Raging spiritual energy gathered on his fist, while brilliant but dangerous halos of light flickered around it.
Boom!
Mo Xin's brutal punch landed on the Dragon-Lion's head. As the spiritual energy vibrated, the space shattered.
Then, the fierce Dragon-Lion exploded and immediately turned into spots of light. The spiritual array that Ling Xi had set up so hastily was clearly no threat to Mo Xin.
"Since you're hellbent on standing up for him, I'll deal with you first!" After settling the Dragon-Lion effortlessly with a single punch, Mo Xin then teleported through space and appeared before Ling Xi.
Another punch that was infused with terrifying spiritual energy surged towards Ling Xi's chest. Murderous intent raged in Mo Xin's eyes. It was clear that he actually intended to hurt this lady!
Mo Xin's attack was so swift and violent, in comparison with Ling Xi's previous opponent, Wu Tong, he was clearly in a class of his own. Sensing the domineering spiritual energy punch approaching her, Ling Xi's brows knit together.
She then formed numerous spiritual energy seals, as she did not intend to take a defensive stance. Ling Xi knew that once she activated this spiritual array trump card, even Mo Xin would have to pay a high price.
Of course, she would also be severely injured after receiving Mo Xin's punch. This was a fight that would cause both parties to sustain substantial losses.
However, just as Mo Xin's attack was approaching Ling Xi, an arm grabbed Ling Xi's wrist from behind. With a gentle shake, this arm pushed Ling Xi back towards safety.
At the same time, Mu Chen rushed out from behind her, like a cheetah hunting for prey. An ominous aura brewed in his gaze as he charged towards Mo Xin.
"Finally, no longer hiding behind a woman?" Seeing Mu Chen, Mo Xin's mocking smirk grew even more intense.
However, his attacks did not weaken, as the spiritual energy fluctuations around his fist only became more ferocious. It was apparent that he intended to kill Mu Chen with a single blow.
Mu Chen was expressionless, while the Crystal Pagoda emerged in his eyes. The spiritual energy within his body circulated and increased, and the crystal-like energy surged in his body like a flood.
In the face of Mo Xin's powerful punch, Mo Xin dealt out a punch in return. Crystal-like spiritual energy converged on his fist, causing his entire arm to crystallize, while an indestructible fluctuation shook the entire space.
The crystal light that emanated rippled with a mystical fluctuation, which even the spiritual energy in heaven and earth did not dare taint.
"It's the Holy Pagoda indeed!" Upon seeing this, Mo Xin's gaze flickered.
In the Budur Ancient Clan, only the Holy Pagoda had such a pure and powerful Seal of Light. Once anyone came into contact with it, the spiritual energy within them would be sealed away immediately.
"But, it's no use against me!" Mo Xin snorted coldly, while black light emerged in his eyes.
Within the black light, a Pagoda surfaced. However, this Pagoda was entirely dark.
This was the Dark Pagoda. It was similar to the Holy Pagoda and was very rare in the Budur Ancient Clan.
Only the purest bloodline of the Mo-lineage could cultivate it. This Dark Pagoda also possessed the power of sealing. It was not as bright and pure as the Holy Pagoda, but it was more vicious.
Dark light surged around Mo Xin as his arm turned an inky black color. A faint black smoke lingered around him as well, which seemed to be incredibly corrosive. As wisps of it hovered in the air, even the space around him was corroded.
Crash!
The fists that were representing light and darkness collided brutally with each other. The powerful dark light and crystal light erupted and tried to devour each other. The earth underneath their feet began to crumble, while massive spider web-like cracks spread out on the ground.
Wild and unparalleled spiritual energy shock waves swept throughout the space, while Mu Chen and Mo Xin's bodies shook. Mu Chen retreated a dozen steps as the massive boulders behind him shattered into dust.
"You're a mere Upper Earthly Sovereign, yet you dare fight me?" Mo Xin, who had only retreated a few steps back, now had the upper-hand in this head-on clash, so he smirked coldly.
Buzz.
However, just as he finished speaking, he could feel fluctuations spreading from his right side. At that moment, a specter-like figure suddenly emerged, while a threatening punch that was glimmering with intense crystal light charged towards him.
This sudden attack caught Mo Xin off guard. As Mu Chen had clearly already retreated, he had to wonder…
Who could be attacking me?
As these quizzical thoughts ran through his mind, Mo Xin did not pause. He dealt out a blow with his palm reflexively, which clashed brutally with the crystal fist.
Boom!
In this clash, however, Mo Xin was at the losing end. His palm shook as he flew backwards. The scene was rather humiliating.
As he retreated, Mo Xin's expression was dark. Shock flickered in his gaze, as he could sense that it was still Mu Chen who had struck him!
How could there be two Mu Chens? Horror bloomed in Mo Xin's heart. He was very confused.
No way... There's still one more!
At this moment, Mo Xin sensed yet another spiritual energy fluctuation behind him. His pupils contracted, but he had no time to get into a defensive stance. He could then sense that an unparalleled aggressive spiritual energy had just bombarded him from behind.
Boom!
At that very moment, a terrible force burst out, causing Mo Xin's body to fly backwards like a cannonball. His body dragged a long trail in the ruins as it went, and his entire figure was buried within them once it landed.
The entire trading area fell into a deathly silence. The Sovereigns in the crowd looked at each other, all of them shell-shocked. They never would have thought that their confrontation would end in such a way!
In the first clash, it was clear that Mu Chen was on the losing end. However, no one expected for two other Mu Chen's, who were identical to Mu Chen in both appearance and power, to appear to defeat Mo Xin in such a humiliating way!
"What Spiritual Energy Clones are they? They are as strong as the original user!" One of the Sovereigns wondered aloud.
They stared at the three figures in horror. They were amazed to see that the three Mu Chens were identical in terms of auras, and they all had similar powerful spiritual energy fluctuations.
In the distance, Qing Shuang and Qing Ling, who were anxiously observing the battle, grew silent. Qing Ling couldn't help but rub her eyes, while disbelief was written all over her face. This result was indeed unimaginable!
"How did this happen? What is with his Spiritual Energy Clones?" Qing Ling stared at the scene with wide eyes.
Qing Shuang's frosty expression also revealed her shock at this time, but she soon recovered from it. She then looked meaningfully at Mu Chen in the field and said with self-deprecation, "It seems that we have all been mistaken. He is not a simple Upper Earthly Sovereign…"
With these two Spiritual Energy Clones of the same strength, even if Mu Chen was only an Upper Earthly Sovereign, his combat effectiveness was now absolutely no less than any Complete Earthly Sovereign! It was no wonder that, from the beginning to the end, even when faced with Xuan Luo's and Mo Xin's hostility, Mu Chen still had a calm appearance. It turns out that he had the capital to compete with them all along!
Thinking of these things, she realized that it was foolish of her to want to protect him, which now seemed somewhat like a joke. Qing Ling pouted, as she wanted to say something. However, seeing the three figures in the battlefield, she said no more.
At the same time, in the other direction, Xuan Luo gazed at the battlefield. He was the calmest because he already knew about Mu Chen's information. Thus, it was not surprising that Mo Xin was unexpectedly defeated by him.
However, as his eyes gazed at the two incarnations, an irrevocable glow of greed and heat filled his eyes. He then murmured, "It's the Qi into Trinity indeed… This perpetrator is lucky indeed. But, when you fall into my hands, this Rare Super Power will soon belong to me!"
