Boom!

Over the North Region Domain, the giant crystal tower disappeared, but the mighty spiritual energy storm raged on. Countless gazes looked up at the sky, and when many Sovereigns saw the dissipated crystal tower, their gazes flickered as they burst into an uproar...

"The crystal tower disappeared! It seems that Mu Chen's means have been shattered by the three Clan Leaders!"

"It countered so fast! Mu Chen must have been struggling…"

"After all, it was one versus three. Even if he failed, he can be proud that he managed to get this far. I'm afraid that, after today, the Mu Estate's reputation will spread throughout the North Region."

"But, he still failed..."

Numerous whispers were heard in the crowd as the sovereigns who were under the three supreme forces relaxed. Before this, they had been tense beyond measure. In their minds, they assumed that the vanished crystal tower had been destroyed by the three Clan Leaders.

Many of the Mu Estate sovereigns looked at the scene with some unease. They glanced at Mandela, but she only raised her face and stared unblinkingly at the raging spiritual storm in the sky.

Whoosh!

Amid the clamor between heaven and earth, a sharp wind suddenly blew through. In the next moment, the crowd saw three streams of light falling from the sky, and finally, like a meteorite, they fell heavily in the depths of the North Region Domain.

Rumble!

That kind of bombardment caused the entire North Region Domain to shake violently. The huge abyss of cracks spread wildly, tearing the depths of the North Region Domain apart.

Everyone looked towards that direction and feared the worst…

Judging from the circumstances, has Mu Chen been utterly defeated?

One by one, the shadows rose in the sky, while countless eyes looked to the depths of the North Region Domain. There, three deep pits were gouged out, and within those deep pits lay three people that were shrouded in black smoke.

As everyone focused their eyes on these three figures and tried to look past the black smoke, their eyes widened. Shock surged on their faces as they saw that the figures who were lying in the three huge pits were Sage Zi Yun, Reverend Thunder, and the Golden Eagle King... The three overlords!

Woah!

Startled exclamations arose, as the sovereigns under the command of the three overlords were extremely terrified. At that moment, they looked as if they had all seen a ghost!

"How did the three Clan Leaders end up like this?" one of the sovereigns asked.

They all looked at each other in utter disbelief. Then, one of them said hastily, "It seems that Mu Chen does have some ability, as they have been hit hard in the process of killing him."

However, just as they just finished comforting themselves, their expressions froze. From high above them, a young figure slowly descended. He stood in the air, looking at the three giant pits.

Although there was no vast surge of spiritual power, everyone could feel a palpable pressure emanating slowly out of his body. Under that kind of subtle oppression, the entire North Region fell silent.

Although countless forces in this area belonged to the Purple Cloud Sect, Thunder Mountain, and the Golden Eagle Mansion, they did not dare be audacious in front of that young figure.

This was because they felt more oppression coming from that figure than from even the three Clan Leaders. At this moment, all of their eyes, which had been full of mocking and ridicule just moments ago, quietly became awed at this time.

Mu Chen paid no attention to them, but simply stared at the three deep pits and said nonchalantly, "If you are not dead already, then get up."

As his voice spread throughout the area, the North Region Domain was deathly silent. The forces dared not make a sound.

This silence went on for quite a while, and in the depths of the three craters, there was finally some movement. Then, three stumbling shadows rose slowly amid the black smoke, finally appearing before the crowd's countless gazes.

Hiss.

When the crowd looked at the three figures, their faces filled with horror. As they floated in mid-air, the robes of Sage Zi Yun, Reverend Thunder, and the Golden Eagle King were all torn and tattered, and their incomparably strong spiritual energies had weakened significantly.

Most importantly, upon their shoulders was a black mass. It looked like black mud, and it was clinging to their bodies, constantly corrupting their flesh and spiritual energies.

Under the corrosive effects of the black liquid, the trio's faces were white and their flesh was constantly bulging and bursting open, while blood flowed out of them profusely. It was clear that they had suffered a terrible blow.

The three were in mid-air, clinging together, while looking at Mu Chen with gloomy expressions. They no longer looked domineering. Instead, they looked incredibly fearful.

In the previous battle, they had a complete understanding of Mu Chen's fighting power. The crystal tower was indeed too horrifying. So, even if they had joined forces, they would have still been defeated.

"Can we now talk calmly about the entrance of the Mu Estate into the North Region?" Mu Chen looked at the three men and smiled gently, not ferociously like before.

The trio's faces were dark as they replied in unison, "Can we even refuse?"

At this time, they had suffered heavy injuries and their fighting capacities had decreased sharply. If Mu Chen really wanted to kick them while they were down, all three of them would probably fall right here in this North Region Domain. Thus, they were like fish on a chopping board, having lost all qualifications to bargain with Mu Chen.

"What do you think?" Mu Chen kept smiling.

The three remained silent. They were no longer haughty as they had been before.

Seeing this, Mu Chen simply ignored them. With a wave of his sleeve, the spiritual light surged in the sky before transforming into a huge map. It was a map of the entire North Region.

On the map, the territory was clearly marked. Nearly 80% of the entire North Region was occupied by the three clans. The North Territory was just in a remote corner of the North Region.

Flicking his finger, a spiritual light flashed in the map. Everyone then saw that the North Territory had begun to expand rapidly into the territory of the three clans.

After a few moments, when the expansion had stopped, the North Territory's Mu Estate occupied almost half of the North Region, and the Purple Cloud Sect's, Thunder Mountain's, and the Golden Eagle Mansion's territories were compressed in the other half of the North.

"From this day onward, the division of the North Region will follow this arrangement." Mu Chen pointed to the spiritual light map in the sky as his nonchalant voice reverberated through the entire North Region Domain.

Gulp.

Countless leaders of the forces gulped. According to this division, nearly half of them were included in the Mu Estate's territory!

How overbearing!

He swallowed half of the North Region in one fell swoop!

Even though many of the onlookers were grumbling in their hearts, no one dared to actually speak up. Instead, they all looked at the three Clan Leaders. But, sadly, they saw that even they were not qualified to negotiate with Mu Chen.

"You've gone too far!" When Sage Zi Yun, Reverend Thunder, and the Golden Eagle King saw Mu Chen's division, their faces were green with rage, and they all started hollering madly. After all, Mu Chen had dealt them with a heavy blow.

Upon hearing their words, Mu Chen smiled and asked, "You all were defeated, and I am the victor, so how is this going too far? If I were defeated today, would it still be too much if you got your way?"

The three men's faces twitched for a moment, and they immediately took a deep, collective breath. Then, Reverend Thunder said, "Your strength is indeed overbearing, but you should also know that the three of us are unable to make any final decisions. There is a real supreme force behind us..."

As his voice trailed off, there was a clear implication of a veiled threat. Mu Chen was really strong, but they were backed by true Heavenly Sovereigns. Once they showed their hand, even if Mu Chen had that mysterious golem, he would be defeated without a doubt!

"I know that you three are merely puppets," Mu Chen said plainly. "Otherwise, I would just end you right here and the entire North Region would be the Mu Estate's domain."

If he wanted to completely offend the supreme powers behind them, Mu Chen would not even leave half of the North Region for them. Hearing Mu Chen's bold words, the three's faces were furious and they grit their teeth.

Reverend Thunder then said, "It looks like Master Mu is capable of resisting three supreme forces. It seems like we have been blind." In spite of this, the sarcasm in his words was quite rich.

It was clear that these three thought that Mu Chen was just faking bravado. After all, the supreme forces were helmed by Heavenly Sovereigns, and that power was not something they could dream of ever matching.

Mu Chen smiled and said, "You have supreme forces behind you, but do you think I'm a pushover?"

The three focused on Mu Chen and immediately sneered among themselves. They had already investigated Mu Estate's foundation, and they had never heard of any supreme forces behind him. Otherwise, they would not be provoking him now.

Seeing the three's disdain, Mu Chen chuckled. With a wave of his sleeve, a stream of golden light shot out and then remained suspended in mid-air.

When the golden light dissipated, it revealed a golden token. There were three big golden words on it... "Demon Slayer Token." Beneath those words were three scarlet fonts that emanated an incredibly ominous aura…. "Demon Slayer King."

As the three looked at the golden token and the scarlet words, chills ran up their spines. At this moment, they finally understood exactly which supreme force was behind Mu Chen…

It was one of the top supreme powers in the Great Thousand World, the Great Thousand Palace!
