Chapter 783 - Seizing

Boom!

When the massive Sovereign Celestial Bodies exploded and burst into particles in the sky, Mu Chen and Liu Yan’s figures jolted as they shot back in retreat. Their figures looked a little pathetic.

Mu Chen forcefully stabilised his figure and slowly wiped the smear of blood off the corner of his lips.

His gaze was calm as he looked at Liu Yan, but he couldn’t help feeling a little shocked in his heart. The latter’s strength had left him a little shocked. Initially, he thought that after refining the second Solar Energy using 200,000 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids, it would be sufficient for him to deal with Liu Yan. But who could have imagined that the latter wasn’t someone so easy to deal with? After all, he managed to withstand the Golden Heavenly Sun Seal that was executed with the Two Solar Energies.

But just as Mu Chen was shaken in his heart, he did not know that Liu Yan’s heart was rolling with tidal waves. His body was trembling with his gaze filled with shock and disbelief.

This outcome had naturally exceeded his range of acceptance.

In the past, when he fought with others, the match would basically have ended the moment he used the Sky Burning Feather when facing Fourth Grade Sovereigns.

So this time, when he executed the Sky Burning Feather, Mu Chen was doomed to die, in his view.

However, the outcome did not go as he wished. Mu Chen, who should be dead, actually counterattacked at the last moment. That terrifying counterattack made even Liu Yan feel terrified. Only after using all the power of the Sky Burning Feather, did he manage to withstand it. It was clear that if he could have held on for another instant, the outcome wouldn’t have ended with the two of them gravely injured, but a wounded and a death.

“How is that possible?!”

Liu Yan’s face was pale as he muttered with the corner of his lips twitching. A brief moment later, he couldn’t help directing his eerie gaze at Mu Chen as dense killing intent surged in his heart.

Mu Chen’s performance had made him feel heavily threatened. They weren’t even at the same age and yet, that stunning fighting strength he had wasn’t at all inferior. If Mu Chen had another two years of cultivation time, he would probably surpass him.

Only now did he understand why the Great Havenlaw Domain would send a fellow, who was clearly a Third Grade Sovereign, to participate in the Dragon-Phoenix Haven. With that cultivation, it would be hard to even shake a Fourth Grade Sovereign.

“You still want to kill me?”

The sudden dense killing intent in Liu Yan’s eyes was noticed by Mu Chen. He faintly smiled. “But does the current you still have the strength to do it?”

Although he had also suffered heavy injuries, Liu Yan had clearly reached his limit at this moment as well.

Liu Yan’s gaze was cold as he clenched his teeth with light flickering in his eyes. He couldn’t help slowly clenching his fists.

Boom!

Just as Liu Yan’s gaze flickered and was prepared to move out, there was a sudden huge sound as a huge figure fell from the sky and was thrown onto the White Bones Mountain.

Directing his gaze over, Liu Yan abruptly narrowed his eyes as a smear of astonishment uncontrollably surged on his face.

That figure was a huge scarlet python, it was covered with scales and a surge of terrifying ominous aura was being emitted from it, clearly indicating that it was a terrible beast.

But, at this moment, the scales on the beast had shattered and fresh blood was flowing, dying the peak red. Furthermore, there wasn’t any vitality on it.

Hiss!

When the other experts outside the White Bones Mountain saw this scene, they frantically inhaled a mouthful of chilled air instantly. Their figures uncontrollably trembled because they had recognized that the scarlet python was a Scarlet Blood Python!

And in this place, there was only one Scarlet Blood Python who ranked ninth on the Dragon-Phoenix Record, Chi Xue of the Serpent God Palace!

That also meant that… the Scarlet Blood Python that had lost its vitality on the peak was Chi Xue!

Chi Xue died?!

This stunning scenario not only made Liu Yan feel cold all over his body, but even those experts outside the White Bones Mountain felt their scalps turning numb. Although Chi Xue was only ranked 9th on the Dragon-Phoenix Record, even Liu Yan would be a little fearful if they fought. Perhaps Liu Yan could defeat Chi Xue, but killing him would be extremely hard.

The moment such a powerful expert launched their counterattacks, it would definitely be extremely fearsome.

Mu Chen was also stunned as he looked at the massive python’s corpse. But before he could even speak, he saw a petite figure on the corpse of the python.

Cai Xiao’s snow-white bare feet gently stood on the head of the python, before she gracefully bent down and gently patted the head of the python. Thereafter, a seven-coloured snake flew out of her sleeve and took a bite on the python’s head.

Poof!

The body of the huge python rapidly dried out at a visible speed. In just ten breaths’ time, only a mummified corpse was left behind.

Countless people were overwhelmed with shock at this scene.

The seven-coloured snake raised its head in satisfaction as it hissed at Cai Xiao. Cai Xiao smiled with her eyes narrowed and she stretched her hand out, gently touching the head of the little snake, before it lazily burrowed into Cai Xiao’s sleeves.

Under the attention of everyone that witnessed that horrifying scene, Cai Xiao stretched her waist. The curves on her exquisite waist were extremely enticing. But at this moment, no one dared to let their gaze wander. Because they could tell that in this place, the most terrifying person was actually that mysterious and beautiful girl.

“Finished?”

Cai Xiao lifted her face as she cast a glance at Mu Chen and Liu Yan. Shortly after, she pursed her lips with a smile at Mu Chen. “Initially, I had no intentions to kill him. But since he had such a filthy mouth, I momentarily lost control…”

The corner of Mu Chen’s lips twitched as he dryly laughed. Chi Xue was indeed unfortunate. It was fine for him to speak so filthily usually, but he was purely courting death to dare to behave in such a way to that great lady.

“You’ve still not gotten rid of him?” Cai Xiao shifted her gaze to Liu Yan. It was only a casual glance, but the latter had urgently retreated with his body tensed up, his gaze filled with caution and alertness.

“Why don’t I do it?” Cai Xiao chuckled.

Rustle!

By the time she finished her words, Liu Yan’s figure had burst out in an instant retreat and had already flown out of the White Bones Mountain’s range, before Mu Chen could even speak. His decisive retreat had also left Mu Chen stunned. Shortly after, he lightly curled his lips.

Although he wanted Liu Yan to be left behind here, it was clearly hard to accomplish that with his current state. Therefore, he made no attempts to intercept, allowing Liu Yan to retreat.

“Mu Chen, just you wait. The matter between us is not finished!” Liu Yan yelled out from afar, leaving a ferocious sentence behind. Thereafter, he no longer dared to remain any longer and turned into a streak of light and swiftly left.

Mu Chen, however, couldn’t be bothered with him and had directed his gaze towards the other experts outside the White Bones Mountain. When those experts saw his gaze directing over, they involuntarily retreated with fear filling their eyes.

After witnessing the shocking battle personally between Mu Chen and Liu Yan, they no longer dared to treat him as an ordinary Third Grade Sovereign.

“Gentlemen, is there anyone that wants to snatch this Dragon-Phoenix Pool from us?” Mu Chen swept his gaze as he said in a deep voice.

Many experts exchanged gazes and could only retreat with their teeth clenched. Although Mu Chen must’ve been greatly exhausted after experiencing that great battle with Liu Yan, he still had that mysterious girl beside him, who was even more terrifying. Killing Chi Xue so easily, she was clearly the more terrifying individual.

Therefore, no matter how much they were unwilling to part with the Dragon-Phoenix Pool, rationale still surpassed their greed. After all, no matter how miraculous the Dragon-Phoenix Pool was, it was still incomparable to the importance of their lives.

Seeing those experts retreating, Mu Chen felt relieved in his heart. Those that could come here weren’t ordinary figures, after all. If they were to disregard everything, it would be a little troublesome for them. Now that they could retreat with their rationale, it was the best outcome for both parties.

“Let’s open the Dragon-Phoenix Pool.” Watching this scene, Cai Xiao gently patted her hands.

Mu Chen nodded his head, then made a grab with his hand. The Demonic Ape, which had been slaughtered by him earlier, flew over, and, under his knife hand, he broke the Demonic Ape’s blood vessels and a surge of fresh blood flowed towards the Dragon-Phoenix Haven like a stream.

Guu! Guu!

Dark-red fresh blood swiftly spread out in the Dragon-Phoenix Pool. In just a minute, the fresh blood had covered the entire Dragon-Phoenix Pool and a dense stench of fresh blood spread out.

Buzz! Buzz!

As the fresh blood filled the Dragon-Phoenix Pool, the pool suddenly emitted a fine trembling sound. In the chilling pool of white bones, there were numerous ancient runes that appeared.

Brilliant dragon roars and phoenix cries resounded from the pool, which resonated between the heavens and earth.

Rumble!

Fresh blood started to boil in the Dragon-Phoenix Pool, emitting blood bubbles. Vaguely, there were images of a dragon and phoenix wandering in the pool of bones.

As they wandered, the fresh blood, which was sticky to begin with, swiftly turned clear as traces of impurity constantly evaporated. The stench of blood had also been extinguished from the fresh blood.

In just a brief moment, the blood pool in the Dragon-Phoenix Pool was filtered into an immortal pool with an immortal aura surging. A mysterious energy was also quietly emitting, which fluctuated in the space.

“You want to go in and give it a try?” Cai Xiao stood at the edge of the Dragon-Phoenix Pool and smiled at Mu Chen.

“We’re not going in together?” Mu Chen was stunned. Now that the Dragon-Phoenix Pool was formed, they would be able to obtain a great opportunity as long as they could enter.

“I only needed the Blood Essence of a True Dragon, but it’s too little here.” Cai Xiao casually said as she waved her hand, “You’re a man, stop being like an old woman and hurry up.”

“Thanks.”

Mu Chen cupped his fists in gratitude. He did not say another word as his figure moved, preparing to charge into the Dragon-Phoenix Pool that had just opened.

Boom!

However, in that instant when he moved, a pile of white bones exploded on the peak and fragments were shot out in every direction. Within those fragments, there was a fuzzy figure that penetrated through space and charged towards the Dragon-Phoenix Pool before Mu Chen.

Mu Chen’s face instantly changed as killing intent abruptly rose in his eyes.

There was actually someone trying to fish for benefits and snatch something that belonged to him!
