Chapter 1280 - Apocalyptic Heavenly Lion

The clash caused by soundwaves gradually spread to the distance, causing waves to lift in the Spiritual Jade Island that made it look like an apocalypse.

Standing on the Heavenly Lion Immortal Body, Gu Shihuang’s face was dark. The strength that Mu Chen had displayed left him shocked and, at the same time, killing intense grew denser in his heart.

Although Mu Chen had the powerful Qing Yanjing as his mother, he never used a single resource of the Ancient Buddha Clan. But even so, he was still able to reach such heights at such a young age.

In terms of talent, this Mu Chen might not by any worse than Young Master Xuan Luo, the genius of a thousand years back in their clan.

If there’s a day when Mu Chen could return to the clan, then he might become the most powerful competitor against their Young Master for the Patriarch seat.

As dense killing intent surged in his eyes, Gu Shihuang took a deep breath and his hands formed into seals without any hesitation.

As he formed his seals, the heavens and earth trembled as the Heavenly Lion Celestial Body emanated a terrifying pressure at the moment, causing even this entire region to tremble.

A stunning roar burst from the Heavenly Lion Immortal Body, and every single roar swept up a storm in this region. As the roar intensified, black light also started to gather on the Heaven Lion Immortal Body’s forehead.

When Mu Chen looked at that black light, his pupils narrowed. He had sensed great danger. Instantly, the Spiritual Energy in his body violently circulated as he went into a defensive state.

When Emerald Serpent Ancestor, who was trapped in the Skycirculation Meteorite Array, saw this scene, his face changed as well. As someone that understood Gu Shihuang pretty well, he knew what the latter was trying to do now.

“That old fellow actually brought out this move? Is that brat so hard to deal with?” Emerald Serpent Ancestor’s gaze flickered. He had sparred with Gu Shihuang, so he naturally knew how terrifying that move was. Even a Perfected Earth Sovereign might not dare to take that move head-on.

But right now, Gu Shihuang was actually using such a move to deal with Mu Chen, who was a mere Greater Earth Sovereign, and it might be a little excessive…

However, the Emerald Serpent Ancestor was also a cautious fox, so he could tell that it wasn’t because Gu Shihuang wanted to use this move, but some other moves weren’t enough to deal with Mu Chen, who was only a Greater Earth Sovereign.

“This situation doesn’t seem right.” The Emerald Serpent Ancestor muttered to himself. His character was as cunning as a snake, and the reason why he came to help Gu Shihuang was that he didn’t feel that a Greater Earth Sovereign would be threatening.

But looking from it right now, this Greater Earth Sovereign didn’t seem that simple. Not to mention…

He looked at another direction with a battle taking place as well. At this moment, Liang Xiesha had also fallen into a deadlock, since both of his opponents were surprisingly hard to deal with.

Although Long Xiang was a Quasi-Perfected Earth Sovereign, he possessed such terrifying strength that even a Perfected Earth Sovereign might suffer when facing him head-on.

As for that lass with a peerless beauty, she made him feel even more unbelievable. Despite her cultivation at the Lesser Earth Sovereign Realm, even the Emerald Serpent Ancestor’s face had drastically changed when he saw her Sovereign Celestial Body.

He naturally recognised that it’s the famous Luo Shen Celestial Body!

With the power of the Luo Shen Celestial Body, although Luo Li was only supporting Long Xiang, she would occasionally launch attacks that gave Liang Xiesha a little trouble, causing the latter to be unable to focus on dealing with Long Xiang.

Although their formation was luxurious with three Perfected Earth Sovereigns, they no longer had the advantage in the battle without them knowing it…

Seeing this situation, the Emerald Serpent Ancestor’s face changed and he fell into thoughts.

While the Emerald Serpent Ancestor fell into thoughts, the black light became extremely condensed in the forehead of the Heavenly Lion Immortal Body, looking akin to a black hole.

Gu Shihuang’s cold gaze was fixed on Mu Chen and his sinister voice resounded, “In the past, those that made me resort to this move were all Perfected Earth Sovereigns, this is still the first time that I’m using it on a Greater Earth Sovereign!

“So this time, go and die!” When he finished his words, his expression turned sinister as an afterimage swirled in his hands and his roar resounded, “Sovereign Ability - Apocalyptic Heavenly Lion!”

When he roared, the black hole in the forehead of the Heavenly Lion Immortal Body violently revolved and a black beam shot out in the next moment.

That black beam formed into a ten-odd foot-long black lion, covered in profound runes, along with an apocalyptic aura emanating from it.

As the black lion traveled, everything in its path collapsed, and all vitality was drained.

Looking at the black lion, Mu Chen’s face had turned solemn. A Perfected Earth Sovereign was truly powerful. Such a Sovereign Ability could only be described as terrifying.

The might of this Sovereign Ability could probably rival even a Greater Divine Ability!

Taking a deep breath, Mu Chen knew that Gu Shihuang had brought out his ultimate move. If he couldn’t block it, he would be defeated today, even if he had the protection of the Immortal Golden Body.

He stomped his feet and poured all his Spiritual Energy into the Immortal Golden Body.

Thus, Divine Immortal Runes started to coiled around him like a massive purplish-golden dragon.

In just a few moments, the amount had already reached 55! It was Mu Chen’s current limit as well.

Seeing the 55 Divine Immortal Runes, Gu Shihuang snickered. He already knew the might of the Divine Immortal Runes through the previous clash, but 55 of them was impossible to withstand his killing move!

“If this is all you have, then you will be crippled here!” Gu Shihuang savagely smiled as the black lion increased it’s speed and pounced towards the Immortal Golden Body.

As the lion approached, Mu Chen pursed his lips. He also knew that 55 Divine Immortal Runes were truly insufficient…

“Since that’s the case…” Mu Chen’s gaze flickered as he formed seals, and, in the next moment, space fluctuated beside him, before a silhouette slowly appeared.

It was a black-robed Mu Chen!

When Gu Shihuang looked at the other Mu Chen that appeared, his gaze flickered with disbelief, since he could sense that the other Mu Chen possessed a similarly powerful Spiritual Energy. Another Greater Earth Sovereign!

“How is this possible?!” Gu Shihuang exclaimed, but was ignored by Mu Chen. When the black-robed Mu Chen appeared, he placed his hands on the Immortal Golden Body and a boundless Spiritual Energy gushed out from him into the Immortal Golden Body.

With another source of Spiritual Energy, the Immortal Golden Body turned brilliant and more Divine Immortal Runes started to condense.

In just a few breaths, the Divine Immortal Runes around him have reached 80!

As 80 Divine Immortal Runes surrounded Mu Chen, they emanated a terrifying fluctuation as well that caused space to tremble.

Looking at the amount of Divine Immortal Runes, only then did Mu Chen feel relieved before waving his hand, and the 80 runes burst out.

“Divine Immortal Runes - Myriad Transformation - Immortal Shield!”

The eighty runes intertwined and formed into a thousand foot-high purplish-golden shield before Mu Chen, along with an immortal aura that made it seem indestructible.

With such defenses, even if he was facing the ultimate move of a Perfected Earth Sovereign, he also had the confidence to withstand it.

When the shield was formed, the black lion had reached. Despite being much smaller than the shield, Mu Chen’s eyes had abruptly narrowed in the instant of collision. He noticed that he had belittled Gu Shihuang’s move!

An incredibly huge sound was produced that echoed, sweeping a massive storm of Spiritual Energy in the surroundings, and caused space to collapse in the process.

The black aura tangled up on the shield, and under the corrosion of the apocalyptic aura, a crack had appeared on the shield.

“Brat, you want to stop my ultimate move with this? You’re simply dreaming!” Gu Shihuang roared with laughter.

As his laughter roared, the shield had also reached its limit as it shattered. In the next instant, the remaining power enveloped towards Mu Chen’s direction.

Gu Shihuang’s face was covered with a cold smile. Although the shield had withstood most of the power, the remnant power could still heavily injure Mu Chen.

As the black light swiftly dispersed, the view also started to clear up.

When Gu Shihuang looked over, his face sank as he saw that Mu Chen was still standing on the shoulder of the Immortal Golden Body without any harm. However, the black-robed Mu Chen’s face had turned pale and the spiritual luster around him had diminished, losing his fighting strength.

Clearly, in that last moment, the black-robed Mu Chen had absorbed all of the damages so that it didn’t affect Mu Chen.

“What a cunning brat!” Gu Shiheng’s face was cold as he snickered, “But that’ll do. Heavily injuring your clone, I’ll see what can you do.”

Although he did not heavily injure Mu Chen, he had dealt with the black-robed Mu Chen. Now, Mu Chen would no longer be able to borrow the power of the other Mu Chen.

Facing Gu Shihuang’s snicker, Mu Chen raised his head with an abnormal smile. “Who told you that I only have one clone?”

Hearing Mu Chen’s words, Gu Shihuang’s pupils narrowed and an indescribable threat enveloped his heart. Abruptly turning around, he was terrified to see that the space behind him was torn apart and a white silhouette appeared. It was actually a white-robed Mu Chen, but this time, this Mu Chen was holding onto an ancient crystal sword.

When Gu Shihuang looked at that sword, his soul left his body because he felt the aura of a Heavenly Sovereign on that sword!

Seeing Gu Shihuang’s gaze of despair, the white-robed Mu Chen smiled. In the next instant, the crystal sword in his hand cut through space and slashed down towards Gu Shihuang’s head, “Old geezer, you can die now…”
