Chapter 818 - Qin Zhong VS Qiu Taiyin Thyaeria's Thoughts

The Great Ruler

Chapter 818 - Qin Zhong VS Qiu Taiyin

“Nine Nether Palace, Mu Chen.”

When the last sentence came from Mandala’s mouth, the voices in this entire plaza seemed to have paused for a brief moment before everyone directed their astonished gazes towards Mu Chen, along with an uproar.

“Mu Chen? Is it that new Commander of the Nine Nether Palace?”

“He is actually participating the King’s Ceremony as well… doesn’t this seem too sloppy? He’s been in our Great Havenlaw Domain for barely a year.”

“Although his performance in the Dragon-Phoenix Haven is outstanding, this King’s Ceremony is much harder than the Dragon-Phoenix Haven. Although Mu Chen was able to win in the Dragon-Phoenix Haven, that was because of the help from the daughter of the Flame Emperor.”

“There’s another reason…”

“……”

Whispers filled with doubt and unconcealable jealousy rang out in the sky. After all, the time Mu Chen was in the Great Havenlaw Domain was too short, but his rise was too fast. Achievements that others had to spend years to accumulate was accomplished by Mu Chen in less than a year.

This difference made them feel unbalanced in their hearts, so criticism was unavoidable.

Qiu Taiyin, who was donned in a black robe, cast a glance at Mu Chen with a light smile. There weren’t that many emotions displayed from him. In his view, only Qin Zhong could slightly threaten him. As for Mu Chen, although he possessed outstanding talent, he was still too young and could not be placed in his heart.

He’s determined to be the tenth King!

Mu Chen paid no attention to the doubtful commotion, he had his eyes hung low and maintained a calm expression. Tang Bing, Tang Rou and those of the Nine Nether Palace standing behind him felt indignation, but they could not speak due to Nine Nether stopping them.

At this point in time, those disputes were practically useless, since strength determined everything.

On the golden throne, there weren’t any ripples on Mandala’s face as she looked at the plaza that was in an uproar. After slightly pushing her hand down, she caused all the voices to be quiet.

This was the Great Havenlaw Domain, and she was the ruler of it. So no one could change her words.

“Since everyone is already here, then let us begin this King’s Ceremony.” She lightly waved her hand and her imposing voice caused the heavens and earth to lightly tremble.

Dong!

A brilliant bell rang out in this region as many experts had their eyes heated. They knew that this King’s Ceremony would definitely be extremely intense.

Rustle!

Under the innumerable gazes, Qiu Taiyin lightly smiled and his figure moved, appearing on the King’s Ceremony Stage with his hands behind his back. His gaze disregarded Mu Chen and was directed at Qin Zhong. “Brother Qin, I’m looking forward to some teachings.”

Qin Zhong cast a glance at Mu Chen and saw the latter had a smile hung on his face. His feet tapped and he appeared on the King’s Ceremony Stage, standing at the opposite side of Qiu Taiyin.

The two of them faced each other with vast Spiritual Energy sweeping out and a heavy pressure started to spread out from the King’s Ceremony Stage, causing many of the experts’ faces to gradually turn solemn.

Qin Zhong’s sharp gaze locked onto Qiu Taiyin and slowly clenched his fist. The popularity of the latter was getting greater amongst the veterans in the Great Havenlaw Domain, so being known as the top beneath the King level wasn’t false.

Therefore, the King’s Ceremony today wouldn’t be easy.

Boom!

A vast amount of Spiritual Energy swept out like a storm from Qin Zhong as his gaze turned cold. He stomped his feet and soared into the horizon, both of his palms flickered with a jade-coloured light. It’s as if his hand was made of jade, containing enormous power in them.

“Jade Cauldron Hands!”

Qin Zhong barked out as some jade cauldron runes vaguely appeared at the centre of his palms, before an enormous palm seal of Spiritual Energy flew out. There were also jade cauldron runes on the Spiritual Energy palm, emanating endless power, as if it could crush mountains.

“Haha. I have been hearing about Brother Qin Zhong’s Jade Cauldron Divine Art for a long time, I will get to experience it for myself, today.” Qiu Taiyin calmly smiled, facing Qin Zhong’s attack. Both of his palms drew a loop as gushes of black smoke surged. It was filled with extremely cold Spiritual Energy that could even freeze the atmosphere.

Whoosh!

The black smoke looked like it was alive, taking the form of a huge python, before soaring into the sky, and clashed with the Jade Cauldron Palm.

Boom!

Violent Spiritual Energy swept out, the impact even caused space to slightly distort.

Qin Zhong’s gaze flickered as he abruptly formed seals. A dazzling light soared into the sky from his body. His entire body had actually turned into a white jade.

“This is…” Mu Chen looked at Qin Zhong’s body with slight astonishment, since he could sense that Qin Zhong’s physique seemed to have gotten stronger.

“That is the Jade Cauldron Divine Physique, a Body Refining Divine Art that Qin Zhong had obtained from an ancient ruin. It is precisely because of this that he could become the City Lord of the Greatlaw City.” Nine Nether explained.

Rustle!

When Nine Nether and Mu Chen were speaking, Qin Zhong’s figure, which had turned sparkling, had suddenly disappeared. When he appeared again, he actually appeared behind Qiu Taiyin, before swiftly thrusting his fist, along with a power that could crush mountains, towards the latter’s back like a bolt of lightning.

Facing such a swift attack, even Qiu Taiyin didn’t seem able to react to it as Qin Zhong’s fist flew over.

Tsssssi.

Qin Zhong’s fist had quickly pierced through Qiu Taiyin’s chest. But when it pierced through, Qin Zhong’s face abruptly changed. He saw Qiu Taiyin’s body turning into smoke from the area his hand had pierced through.

Qin Zhong instantly felt danger in his heart and immediately wanted to withdraw his fist.

“Haha. Brother Qin Zhong, it’s against etiquette not to respond, why don’t you try my Ghastly Mist Physique?” A smear of an abnormal smile rose on the corner of Qiu Taiyin’s mouth as the smoke on his chest suddenly froze. A terrifying chill had quickly froze Qin Zhong’s arm and was swiftly spreading up along his arm in an attempt to freeze his entire body.

The sinister chill invaded Qin Zhong’s body and tried to freeze the Spiritual Energy in his body as well. In an instant, this caused a drastic change in expression on his face. His gaze suddenly turned dark as Spiritual Energy burst out from his body without any holding back.

Boom!

A vast Spiritual Energy swept out, forming into a powerful Spiritual Energy pressure. Instantly causing a commotion and anyone could tell that the strength of Qin Zhong’s Spiritual Energy had surpassed the Fourth Grade Sovereign Realm, just a step away from the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm.

“Looks like Qin Zhong has some improvements after all these years. If he’s given a little more time, breaking through to Fifth Grade Sovereign is only a matter of time.” Someone sighed. Qin Zhong had stayed at the Fourth Grade Sovereign Realm for many years, and he finally had some improvements.

There was a flash of astonishment in Mu Chen’s eyes. Qin Zhong did have some trump cards, with such strength, he was equivalent to the Netherworld Prince. The latter was also just half a step away from the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm.

Boom!

Spiritual Energy swept on the King’s Ceremony Stage as the black ice on Qin Zhong’s arm shattered with his figure moving back in retreat. At the same time, with the vibration of Spiritual Energy, the chill that had invaded his body dispersed.

“So, City Lord Qin Zhong is already half a step into being a Fifth Grade Sovereign, congratulations.” As the black smoke surged, Qiu Taiyin slowly turned around and his lips rose.

Qin Zhong maintained a calm expression as a vast Spiritual Energy undulated around him like an ocean. Every single move of his emanated a powerful force that could crush mountains.

His gaze was fixed onto Qiu Taiyin. Although he was, indeed, half a step from the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm, he still faintly felt pressure coming from the latter.

It looks like he needed to go all-out.

Qin Zhong deeply inhaled a mouthful of air and swiftly formed seals at lightning speed. Instantly, a dazzling jade-coloured light burst forth, forming into a massive figure.

That figure looked like it was made from jade and the runes of an ancient cauldron could be seen on the jade-white figure as a powerful force undulated in this region, making others feel pressured.

“That’s…Qin Zhong’s Jade Cauldron Celestial Body!” When the jade figure appeared, it instantly caused an uproar in this region. Clearly, they weren’t unfamiliar towards Qin Zhong’s Sovereign Celestial Body.

Qin Zhong’s figure appeared on the head of this jade-white figure and h looked down at Qiu Taiyin. 

“You’re finally taking this Jade Cauldron Celestial Body out.” Qiu Taiyin raised his head as he looked at the dazzling white figure with an indifferent smile on his face.

“Looks like I cannot hold back if I want to beat you, Brother Qin Zhong.” Qiu Taiyin smiled as he waved his hand. Black smoke gushed out, soaring into the horizon before forming into a huge black figure.

The black smoke coiled around the huge figure like a black dragon and the chill had lowered the temperature in this region.

“That’s Qiu Taiyin’s Great Yin Celestial Body!” Someone exclaimed.

Mu Chen looked at the two colossi. Although they were ranked towards the end of the 99 Rankings of Sovereign Celestial Bodies, both Qin Zhong and Qiu Taiyin had deep attainments in their Sovereign Celestial Bodies, respectively.

“It won’t be easy to determine the winner.”

Under countless heated gazes, Qiu Taiyin appeared on the head of the Great Yin Celestial Body as he looked at Qin Zhong with an abnormal smile on the corner of his mouth.

“Hard to determine the winner? I don’t think so…”

Qiu Taiyin slowly opened his arms as the chill and sharpness in his eyes grew stronger. The black smoke-like Spiritual Energy also started sweeping around him, forming a tornado.

The bright sky was swiftly turning dark as the black smoke covered the sun and an extremely powerful Spiritual Energy pressure spread out in this region.

Sensing the Spiritual Energy pressure, Qin Zhong’s face drastically changed.

Mu Chen and Nine Nether had narrowed their eyes and couldn’t help sucking in breath of air. That’s because the Spiritual Energy pressure had reached the level of Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm!

Qiu Taiyin had actually broken through to the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm!
