Chapter 844 - Skycroc Troop

Chapter 844 - Skycroc Troop

“Now, can we have a proper talk?”

Mu Chen’s voice rang out in this region. Although his voice was calm, no one dared to underestimate him anymore, with the terrifying Battle Will surrounding him.

Even a powerful figure like Xu Ba had narrowed his eyes as he looked at Mu Chen with ferocity, before he slowly said, “I never thought that you could control Battle Will to such an extent at your age. Looks like I have underestimated you.”

Mu Chen smiled noncommittally as he cast a glance at the Blood Hawk Troop that was trapped within the valley. “Mount Lord Xu, I’m afraid that it won’t be favourable to you for us to battle here. So, if you want to forcefully devour the Blood Hawk Hall, I believe you will have to pay a significant price as well.”

“So, why don’t I suggest for your people to retract the envelopment. No matter what happens today, our Great Havenlaw Domain will settle it with you guys in the future. What do you think?”

The youth stood in the sky, calmly smiling. Even when facing the eyes of the Skycroc Troop, there weren’t any traces of fear on his face. His calm bearing attracted many forces in this region to be surprised.

Xu Ba was also a little surprised at how calm Mu Chen was. But, in response, he smiled from the rage in his heart and pointed towards the astonishing amount of Skycroc Troop members and spoke with a weird expression, “Brat, are you certain that you will make me pay a price with your strength?”

Although he was extremely surprised by the vast Battle Will displayed by the Nine Nether Troop, it just meant that the Nine Nether Troop was comparable to the Skycroc Troop if they had the same amount. But, judging from the current situation, he had an army of ten thousand, whereas the Nine Nether Troop only had a mere five thousand. The moment the battle broke out, the Nine Nether Troop would definitely, greatly suffer.

Therefore, Xu Ba found it hilarious when Mu Chen spoke about a price.

In the valley, the Blood Hawk King and the Blood Hawk Troop looked at the distant sky where the Nine Nether Troop stood in confrontation with the Skycroc Troop and felt a little complicated in their hearts. That’s because they were clear that compared to a year ago, the Nine Nether Troop seemed to have undergone a complete change.

“My Lord, I’m afraid that it’s not possible for the Nine Nether Troop to deal with the Skycroc Troop…” Wu Tian briefly hesitated, before saying. Although he felt complicated in his heart from the Nine Nether Palace’s rescue, he spoke of the truth. That’s because he had previously fought with the Skycroc Troop and was well-aware of how much power the other party possessed.

Although the current Nine Nether Troop wasn’t comparable to the past, their foundation was still weaker than the Skycroc Troop.

According to Wu Tian’s thoughts, probably only the Asura Troop under the Asua King or the Mountain Splitting Troop under the Mountain Splitting King from amongst the Kings could deal with this Skycroc Troop.

Right now, the Nine Nether Troop was still a little lacking.

The Blood Hawk King nodded upon hearing Wu Tian’s words, then looked at the confrontation in the sky. “Wu Tian, if the Nine Nether Troop makes a move, you will fully coordinate with them to lessen their pressure.”

“As for Xu Ba, I will make my move and prevent him from interfering the situation.”

Wu Tian nodded his head. Under the current situation, they could only work together with the Nine Nether Troop to fight for a chance to break through the Skycroc Troop’s trap.

Just when the two of the conversed, Mu Chen lightly narrowed his eyes towards Xu Ba’s ridiculing words. It looked like Xu Ba thought that he could disregard their Nine Nether Troop since he had the advantage in quantity…

Since that’s the case…

Mu Chen’s hands joined together and a sharpness surged in his calm eyes. A surge of sharp aura spread out from his body like an unsheathed sword.

“Nine Nether Troop!” Mu Chen suddenly barked.

“Fight!”

The Nine Nether Troop stomped their spears on the ground and issued a thunderous yell that echoed towards the horizon. A myriad foot-long black wave swept out. Looking from afar, it was like a black ocean that was spreading out in this region.

Liiii!

Mu Chen stomped his foot as well, causing the surging black Battle Will to roll behind him as a cry that was filled with rampant fighting intent rang out. Thereafter, many people could see a Nine Nether Bird that was engraved with runes being formed from within the Battle Will. It had unfolded its huge wings that instantly covered the sky…

The Nine Nether Troop unleashed a cry towards the sky and everyone was startled to see the black Battle Will soaring into the horizon and spread throughout this entire region in a few breaths’ time.

“Spirit of Battle Will?!”

Exclamations of surprise instantly resounded throughout this region. The faces of those in the surroundings had drastically changed their expressions as every single one of their eyes widened at this scene filled with disbelief.

“Mu Chen actually managed to refine the Spirit of Battle Will of the Nine Nether Troop…” In the valley, the Blood Hawk King and Wu Tian had stiffened expressions as they watched this scene. Shortly after, they exchanged looks and couldn’t help sucking in cold breaths.

At this moment, they understood why Mu Chen and Nine Nether were so daring to come alone here, despite knowing that the Skycroc Troop was here. It turned out that they had a card up their sleeves.

Everyone was clear what the Spirit of Battle Will meant for a troop and how terrifying the amplification was.

“That fellow…” Wu Tian had a complicated gaze as he sighed with great difficulty. A year ago, when Mu Chen entered the Great Havenlaw Domain, he was still someone that Wu Tian could disregard. But after a year, not only was he ranked third on the Dragon-Phoenix Record, his commanding skills of a troop had reached a height that he couldn’t reach.

At this time, even Wu Tian had to admit that there was indeed an inestimable distance between him and Mu Chen. There were some people that were nameless in the past, but they were bound to shock the world.

“Spirit of Battle Will?”

Xu Ba’s eyes were also fixed onto the Nine Nether Bird in the vast Battle Will. His face had finally turned ashened, since this trump card of Mu Chen’s had clearly exceeded his estimations.

And at this moment, he knew why Mu Chen would dare to say that he would have to pay a significant price. It turned out that it wasn’t him being young and arrogant, but he was truly that capable.

Even if the Nine Nether Troop was inferior to the Skycroc Troop in terms of quantity, with the Spirit of Battle Will, not even Xu Ba was confident that he could defeat them. That’s because he was also clear about how important having the Spirit of Battle Will for a troop was.

Beside Xu Ba, Fang Yi had tightly knitted his brows. This was the first time that he had gravely looked at Mu Chen. In the past, he did not place Mu Chen with much importance, but the latter had a stunning performance in the Dragon-Phoenix Haven. That’s because Fang Yi knew that if it wasn’t for him encountering a monster like Cai Xiao, Mu Chen’s lustre in the Dragon-Phoenix Haven would have been easily suppressed and dimmed by him.

But now, it looked like he couldn’t underestimate the opponent that he had once disregarded.

That’s because he was clear about how great of a potential and threat someone that could refine the Spirit of Battle Will of a troop was.

Xu Ba’s eyes grew cold as he looked at Mu Chen and eerily said, “Did you really think that you can confront my Skycroc Troop with the Spirit of Battle Will? I’ll experience for myself if this Spirit of Battle Will of yours is as powerful as you think!”

Although Xu Ba knows how powerful was a Spirit of Battle Will, it was unacceptable for him to choose to take a step back. Even knowing that he would have to pay a significant price if the battle breaks out.

Fang Yi stretched out his hand in attempt to stop the ferocious Xu Ba as he looked at Mu Chen and smiled. “Mu Chen, you have truly given us a surprise…”

“You’re flattering me.” Mu Chen smiled indifferently as he continued, “But if the two of you do not wish for a life-and-death struggle and let other forces benefit from it, I believe it’s better for us to take a step back.”

Fang Yi smiled as he slowly said, “That means that you actually do not dare to fight a life-and-death struggle with the Skycroc Troop. Because you know that the Nine Nether Troop will have to pay a price as well. Since you have your fears as well, then aren’t you thinking it’s a little too easy to save others without paying a price?”

Mu Chen narrowed his eyes. “Then, you mean you want to see which of us is more ruthless?”

Fang Yi waved his hand and smiled. “There’s no reason to fight so ruthlessly. You also know that if you guys easily saved the people of your Great Havenlaw Domain, it won’t look good to our Divine Pavilion.”

“Then, what do you intend?” Mu Chen slightly raised his brows as he smiled, looking at this Overlord of the Dragon-Phoenix Record.

Fang Yi smiled as he turned his head over to Xu Ba. “Mount Lord Xu, why don’t you leave this matter to me?”

Hearing his words, Xu Ba briefly pondered, before nodding his head. Fang Yi had a special position in the Divine Pavilion. Although he was young, his future achievements were bound to be extraordinary. So he did not refute Fang Yi’s interference.

Furthermore, the current situation had become a little troublesome now that the Nine Nether Troop had shown up. Since Fang Yi wanted to take over this matter, he was more than glad to let him.

Seeing Xu Ba’s approval, Fang Yi turned his attention over to Mu Chen and lightly smiled. “You should also know that if the battle between our troops breaks out, we will both have to pay a significant price. But since you want to rescue your people, it’s meaningless to do so with words.”

“So?” Mu Chen looked at Fang Yi as he smiled with his head slightly tilting.

“In the Dragon-Phoenix Haven, I have seen your performance. It was pretty decent, but I believe that your dazzling achievements are greatly related to that friend of yours.” Fang Yi slowly stretched his hand out as Spiritual Energy flickered on his fingertips. They were like lightning as traces of dangerous fluctuations spread out.

“I have a suggestion to deal with the current situation at the smallest price possible. But that would have to depend on whether you’re daring enough.”

Mu Chen’s eyes narrowed.

Fang Yi gently smiled as an unfathomable abstruse light flashed in the depths of his eyes.

“That is to challenge me…”
