After Huang Xuanzhi, Mu Chen, Nine Nether and the rest of the group entered the emerald lake, Huang Jin swung his robe outside of the Deification Pool. Instantly, pillars of water soared up into the sky above the lake before transforming into transparent water mirrors in the air.

Several figures could be seen flickering within these mirrors. These figures were the people who had entered the pool.

The various powerhouses from the Divine Beasts Clan outside of the Deification Pool were looking at the water mirrors, and when they saw the Blood Essence Divine Beasts appear in them, they were filled with envy. After all, those Blood Essence Divine Beasts were great tonics for Divine Beasts, and they could only be found in the Deification Pool!

Suddenly, someone pointed to one of the transparent water mirrors and exclaimed, “Fang Jing is picking on Mu Chen!”

Upon hearing this, many people turned to look at the particular mirror mentioned, and indeed, they saw Fang Jing from the Golden Phoenix Condor Clan confronting Mu Chen and Nine Nether.

“Heh… It looks like Fang Jing is determined to strike at Mu Chen just to please Huang Xuanzhi…” someone from the crowd sneered secretly, while watching the scene unfold in the water mirror.

Many powerhouses from the Divine Beast Clan were also watching the scene, and they all began to whisper among themselves around the Deification Pool…

“But, Mu Chen is not someone who is easily bullied. Even though he is just at the middle stage in the Spiritual Grade, he defeated an elder, who was in the beginning stage of the God Grade level in the Ancient Budur Clan… All by himself!”

“You have underestimated Fang Jing. As he is a supreme talent in the Golden Phoenix Condor Clan, he has already been cultivating for more than 200 years. Even though he is only at the later stage of the Spiritual Grade level, his combat capability as a Sovereign Divine Beast is much more powerful than humans’. I’ve even heard that Fang Jing defeated a human, who was in the beginning stage of the God Grade level.”

“Really? Wow. We all have heard about how Mu Chen was stirring up trouble in the Ancient Budur Clan. Today, I want to see if he is really as strong as the rumors claim him to be.”

“Hehe… If he is defeated by Fang Jing, those elders from the Ancient Budur Clan will be furious!”

Most of the powerhouses were hoping to see a good show apparently. Moreover, if it came down to a battle between a human and a divine beast, they would naturally wish for Fang Jing to win. That way, all of the spiritual beings in the Great Thousand World would know the difference between a human’s and a Sovereign Divine Beast’s supreme talents.

“Time’s up! Get lost, will you?” As everyone was still watching the water mirror, Fang Jing yelled at Mu Chen.

“Moron!” Mu Chen retorted.

He then ignored Fang Jing and opened his mouth to emit a purple flame, which swept out and loomed over that Blood Essence roc, which was trying to escape. When the purple flame appeared, the water around it evaporated instantly, while a daunting amount of heat rose within the entire vicinity.

“Ignorant fellow!” Fang Jing was furious to see Mu Chen ignoring him, so he struck directly at the blood essence roc.

As he stretched out his palm, the golden radiance that penetrated the air like a golden claw, aimed directly at the roc too. Upon seeing this, Mu Chen’s eyes turned cold.

Then, with a single flick, the purple flame that was charging towards the blood essence roc was turned into a ferocious flame dragon! The dragon immediately entangled with the golden claw.

Sst!

The purple flame spread across whatever it came into contact with, and the golden claw quickly melted before vanishing within a few seconds.

“What?” Fang Jing’s eyes narrowed when he saw this. He did not expect that Mu Chen’s purple flame was capable of such tyranny!

After melting the golden claw, Mu Chen flung his robe, causing the purple flame to loom over the blood essence roc once again. Instantly, the enormous roc put up a fierce struggle.

In a few minutes, a blood essence that was about the size of a head landed in Mu Chen’s hand. Mu Chen tossed that blood essence, which was exuding a tremendous blood aura, gently to Nine Nether.

He then told her, “Swallow it.”

As Nine Nether took the blood essence, she looked at Fang Jing, worry filling her face.

“Don’t worry, he can’t snatch that blood essence away,” Mu Chen said with a smile.

Upon hearing his words, Nine Nether felt assured. So, she sat down with her legs crossed and her arms open as she placed the blood essence between her two palms.

As she circulated her spiritual energy, the blood essence exuded an intense blood aura. The aura followed the path of Nine Nether’s inhaled breath and entered her body.

Spiritual light surged even more behind Nine Nether as a large, black egg was formed. The color of the eggshell gradually deepened as the infusion of the intense blood aura continued.

While Nine Nether was devouring her blood essence, Mu Chen stood in front of her, staring at the furious Fang Jing with unwavering eyes.

“You’re courting your own doom!” Fang Jing yelled.

He looked infuriated. He did not expect for Mu Chen to totally disregard him. Not only did Mu Chen ignore his threats, but he also took the blood essence by force and allowed Nine Nether to refine and absorb it right under his nose!

“If you want to please your master, you must choose a better way. Don’t shame yourself by coming here.” Mu Chen said casually.

“Haha!” Fang Jing laughed hysterically. He was clearly in a total rage.

The next moment, a magnificent golden glow exploded from his body as he transformed into a huge golden bird. This huge bird was somewhat magical, as it had a body that was covered with golden phoenix feathers and had a condor’s head.

Golden light flickered within the golden bird’s big eyes, which looked nasty and cold. This was the true body of Fang Jing, a Golden Phoenix Condor! It had the bloodline of the Phoenix and Condor Clan, which meant that it was extremely ferocious.

Apparently, Fang Jing was going all out in this battle. Hence, he had displayed his true body!

“Lad, I’m going to tear you into pieces, then leave your physical body in this Deification Pool!” The huge Golden Phoenix Condor let out a sharp shriek as its wings flapped mightily, causing a windstorm to rage.

“I’m afraid that you don’t have that capability yet.” Mu Chen sneered.

Weng!

However, the Golden Phoenix Condor did not say a word at this time. Instead, it flapped its huge wings and shot forth a bright golden radiance. As the same time, countless golden feathers darted out, filling the entire area.

Every golden feather was filled with an extremely refined spiritual energy. Hence, the feathers were so sharp that they could tear a Spiritual Grade Rare Divine Artifact apart!

Upon seeing the incoming golden feathers, Mu Chen released a purple glow and revealed the huge Immortal Golden Body from behind him. The Immortal Ray immediately surrounded them like a light shield.

Clink!

Countless golden feathers mercilessly hit the violet glowing light shield, yet all of them were unable to penetrate it. Instead, they just bounced off of it.

After a round of fruitless attacks, Fang Jing gave up his ineffective offense. Then, with a cold radiance swirling in his golden pupils, he slowly raised his golden wings.

The feathers on the wings were so hard, it was as if they were made of metal. They were also so sturdy, they could rip space itself apart. Even an ordinary God Grade Heavenly Sovereign at the initial stage would not dare to belittle this indescribable burst of sharpness that these feathers exuded!

“Fang Jing is going to use his superpower…” one of the spectators outside of the Deification Pool said solemnly. All of the onlookers then sharpened their eyes in order to pay close attention to the fight between the two.

Every Sovereign Divine Beast possessed a daunting, natural born superpower. This was also the reason why the combat capability of a Sovereign Divine Beast was more tyrannical than most of the human experts of the same grade.

“Lad, it’s an honor to be killed by my born superpower!” The Golden Phoenix Condor shrieked.

In the next moment, a golden ray spread out from its wings. After a mere second, those wings flapped down without any warning as the Golden Phoenix Condor shrieked, “Born Super Power, Deity Slaying Wings!”

As the pair of golden wings flapped down, it was as though a beam of golden light tore heaven and earth apart. The light forced the ocean before it to be divided with a visible line.

The golden light was incredibly sharp, as though it could slay any living beings on earth. As the beam of golden light fell from above, Mu Chen lifted his chin and squinted his eyes slightly. The next moment, his hands formed seals with lightning speed.

Weng!

A violet glow exploded from the Immortal Golden Body, instantly forming numerous Immortal God Runes. These runes then gathered around it like huge dragons. Within seconds, the number of Immortal God Runes totaled a whopping 700!

Given Mu Chen’s current strength, the Immortal Golden Body near perfect in regards to its cultivation. Moreover, the Immortal God Runes that had just been generated were even more ferocious than before.

After they had gathered around Mu Chen, with just one flick of his finger, the Immortal God Runes merged together with tremendous speed. As they did so, a purple radiance exploded brightly and a violet-golden sabre slowly emerged. The saber had an intense immortal aura circling around it.

As Mu Chen looked at the descending ray of golden light, he smiled indifferently and said, “You may have the Deity Slaying Wings, but I have the Phoenix Exterminating Saber.”

As his voice faded, an enormous violet saber soared into the sky. At that moment, the sky darkened instantly, leaving only a flash of the violet ray remaining. Eventually, the violet ray collided heavily with that golden ray.

Boom!

At this moment, the ocean around the entire region gave way, forming a gigantic empty space. The spectators outside of the Deification Pool were looking anxiously into the water mirror. Apparently, they had no idea who had won after this dangerous collision.

The emerald ocean gradually calmed as the bright glow dissipated. Everyone squinted their eyes as they saw a thick trace of blood slowly surfacing on the golden wings of the enormous Golden Phoenix Condor, which was currently flying in the air. The blood trail slowly spread across its wings…

“How could that be possible?” one of the spectators could not help but wonder aloud.

“How is this happening?” A similar sharp cry came from Fang Jing as he stared in horror from the emerald ocean.

He also could not believe the blood trail that could be seen on his wings. If his Deity Slaying Wings did not diminish most of the impact from that saber, his feathered-wings would have been axed off completely!

“The Sovereign Divine Beast is indeed tough, as it had a body that is clearly hard to penetrate!” While Fang Jing was horrified at this outcome, Mu Chen frowned and commented on his resilience. Mu Chen had assumed that his was a perfect move, but he could not even ax off Fang Jing’s feathered-wings!

“You better watch out! I’ll make you pay for injuring my wings!” Fang Jing allowed surprise and rage to take over for a moment before he finally collected himself.

He then looked at Mu Chen ruthlessly, and with a yelp, he made a quick decision to retreat by flapping his wings furiously. The exchange of blows had made him realize that, even though Mu Chen was only at the middle stage of the Spiritual Grade of Heavenly Sovereign, his combat power was much more terrifying than he had imagined.

Fang Jing did not want to admit to this, but he knew that he might be defeated by Mu Chen if he continued to stay here. At the moment, Mu Chen looked at Fang Jing, who was flapping his wings in an attempt to flee.

In Mu Chen’s pitch-black eyes, there was a flash of merciless mockery as he said, “You picked a fight, so we must fight! Thus, you can’t leave now!”

“Haha, so what if I picked the fight? I will decide when I leave, as you can’t catch me!” Fang Jing laughed maniacally.

After all, he was a flying Divine Beast and speed was his forte. Once he decided to flee, not even a God Grade Sovereign could catch him!

“Oh really?” Mu Chen sneered.

Upon hearing Mu Chen’s confident tone, Fang Jing got a slight chill and started to feel insecure. So, he flapped his wings even more furiously to escape from the scene as soon as possible.

However, just before he could transport his enormous body out of harm’s way, he felt the air around him freeze and saw a huge silhouette looming over him. As Fang Jing lifted his chin and looked up, he was shocked to see a huge pagoda descending from the sky.

The next moment, Fang Jing could only see darkness before him.
