Chapter 713 - Victory
Rustle!
The colossal Battle Will hurricane violently spun around Mu Chen as the surging majestic Battle Will filled the region, causing many people to have their expressions turning grave. Everyone could sense that the Battle Will that was being unleashed by the Nine Nether Troop had far surpassed the Blood Hawk Troop!
“How is that possible?!”
Someone couldn’t help exclaiming. The Nine Nether Troop was only numbered around 1,000, while the Blood Hawk Troop had 5,000. Regarding quantity, it was a one-sided suppression. Furthermore, the strength of the Blood Hawk Troop’s warriors wasn’t any weaker than the Nine Nether Troop.
They couldn’t understand where such powerful Battle Will of the Nine Nether Troop came from.
However, those Kings, like the Asura King and Mountain Splitting King, who had keen eyes, had their brows slightly frowned as they looked at the silhouette in the hurricane with heavy expressions.
“Looks like I have still belittled him in the end.” The Asura King slowly said to Xu Qing, “With his comprehension and control over Battle Will, I’m afraid that he possesses the talent to become a Battle Formation Master.”
“Battle Formation Master?” The corner of Xu Qing’s eyes involuntarily twitched. He was a Domain Lord as well, and thus, he had to command troops. So, he naturally knew how rare and powerful Battle Formation Masters were, it was also once his dream. However, his talent in the field of Spiritual Arrays wasn’t high, so it wasn’t possible for him to become a Battle Formation Master.
“These days, Battle Formation Masters are even rarer than Spiritual Array Masters. Without any guidance, I’m afraid that it will be hard to gain any achievements in the field of Battle Formation.” The Asura King said with slight pity. If there’s a Battle Formation Master in their Great Havenlaw Domain, the increment to their strength would undoubtedly be astonishing.
“Ordinary commanders could only bring out 10-20% of a Battle Will at best. But Mu Chen’s comprehension regarding Battle Will had enabled him to bring out all the power of a Battle Will.”
The Asura King sighed, “I’m afraid there’s a result to this bet… No wonder Nine Nether dared to accept the challenge of the Blood Hawk Hall, so she had such a reliance. This time, the Blood Hawk Hall has truly tried to seal a chicken only to end up losing the rice used to lure it.”
Xu Qing speechlessly lifted his head. In the sky, the Battle Will hurricane was expanding. As it wreaked havoc, it constantly tore apart this battlefield.
“This is a bluff!”
Wu Tian’s face was frighteningly dark as a smear of fear flashed in the depths of his eyes. Because the strength displayed by Mu Chen made him honestly feel fear. It seems that no matter what cards he brings out, it was impossible to surpass and suppress that fellow.
It seemed that beneath that youthful face was an unfathomable heart.
But no matter what mood he had in his heart, Wu Tian knew that he could not fall back right now. If he placed his life on the line, there might be a path of retreat for him. But if he were to fall back and retreat, it would spell doom to himself.
“I refuse to believe that with your strength at First Grade Sovereign, you can truly go against the heavens!” Wu Tian clenched his teeth as his reddened eyes flickered with viciousness. Shortly after, he no longer had any hesitation as he waved his palm down. The spear that was drenched with blood, hovering in the sky, abruptly shot down.
Rustle!
The speed of the spear was astonishing, and as the reeking wind blew, it tore space and instantly appeared above the Battle Will hurricane as the terrifying gale tore fractures in space.
This was the strongest attack gathered from the Blood Hawk Troop, so it was indeed powerful. Facing such an attack, even an expert of Third Grade Sovereign might not be able to take it.
However, Mu Chen’s expression had remained calm right from the start. Then, his tightly shut eyes opened right at this moment. His black pupils were like the starry sky, being abnormally abstruse and could not be seen through.
He formed seals with both of his hand and gently joined them together.
Buzz! Buzz!
The massive Battle Will hurricane around him violently twisted at this moment as the colour turned even darker. Looking at it, it was like a black dragon that was soaring between the heavens and earth.
“Nine Nether’s Plume!”
Mu Chen lifted his hand as a colossal black plume gently rose at the summit of the hurricane. The plume was in the shape of a sword. From its appearance, it was like a plume sword. At the blade of the sword, the plume seemed to be covered in fine saw teeth as the chilling black light looked like it could penetrate through space.
Mu Chen’s gaze was calm as two of his slender fingers pointed in the space.
Buzz! Buzz!
The pitch-black plume sword was vibrating at a rapid speed at this moment, and with a shake, it disappeared. When it appeared again, it was already beneath the spear, with the sharp end of the sword soaring up.
The spear tip and sword tip were like two needles as they clashed together.
Ding!
A clear and crisp metallic sound exploded in the sky as two terrifying Battle Wills violently howled. Black and red each occupied half of the sky.
“Break for me!”
Wu Tian’s face wore a savage expression as his roar resounded in the sky. Ripples of scarlet Battle Will violently surge over, clearly intending to make the final confrontation with every ounce of power left.
Mu Chen’s black pupils faintly cast a glance at Wu Tian, before gently waving down his two fingers, “Break, then!”
A smear of dark light abruptly burst out from the tip of the black plume sword.
Rustle!
When the dark light blossomed and disappeared, it was just a wink of an eye, and the plume sword had already appeared at the rear of the blood-red demonic spear. A fine crack slowly spread out from the body of the spear…
Crack!
When the crack stretched out to the end, the blood spear was quickly split into two as it powerlessly fell. At the same time, it burst into sparks that were incredibly gorgeous.
Pffft!
When the blood spear was split into two, Wu Tian’s face instantly turned pale. Even the Blood Hawk Troop below seemed like they suffered heavy damage as blood seeped out from the corner of their lips.
In the sky, the Blood Hawk Battle Will that was initially violent and wreaking havoc was swiftly retreating at a stunning speed. In just several breaths of time, the blood-red Battle Will that dyed half of the sky had disappeared.
The Blood Hawk Troop that initially had the advantage between their battle with the Nine Nether Troop had actually suffered a crushing defeat!
Rustle!
When this scene appeared, an uproar instantly rose in the sky outside the battlefield. Many experts wore grave expressions. Although they had not uttered a word, they were somewhat shaken in their hearts.
It’s because they couldn’t stay calm at this result. Not only did the Blood Hawk Troop have an advantage in quantity, the Domain Lord, Wu Tian also had the cultivation of Second Grade Sovereign. Thus, looking from the surface, regardless of which factor, the Nine Nether Troop had a disadvantage. But right now, the outcome...
Had left everyone’s jaws to drop.
The line-of-sight that filled the area involuntarily gathered towards Mu Chen. Because anyone could tell that it was his existence in this battle that led the Nine Nether Troop to victory.
The new Domain Lord of the Nine Nether Place was actually so formidable.
At this moment, when the experts of the Great Havenlaw Domain looked at Mu Chen, they kept their arrogance in check. Although this youth was just a First Grade Sovereign on the surface, only those few numbered veteran experts, aside from the Nine Kings, in the Great Havenlaw Domain could rival him if he were to bring out all his cards.
Compared to Cao Feng, this new Domain Lord that Nine Nether had brought back was much more powerful.
Commotions that filled the sky resounded. Some gazes were secretly looking at the Blood Hawk King and realised that the latter’s face was so dark that it looked as if water was about to drip from his face.
On the battlefield, the Battle Will around Mu Chen was also slowly retreating. The Nine Nether Troop below him was looking at his silhouette with revere and blaze in their eyes. They were emotionally stirred in their hearts. All these years, their Nine Nether Troop’s reputation in the Great Havenlaw domain wasn’t high, anyone that spoke of them would have a tone of disdain. But, right now, under Mu Chen’s command, they could finally hold their heads up high for once.
In the future, no one would probably mock their Nine Nether Troop in the Great Havenlaw Domain!
“Haha, thanks for letting me win, and thanks to the Blood Hawk Hall for your gifts.” Up in the sky, Mu Chen looked at Wu Tian, whose face was pale, with a faint smile and cupped his fists.
The qi and blood were rolling within Wu Tian’s body, but when he heard those words, he couldn’t help being enraged and sullen in his heart. Right on the spot, he spewed a mouthful of fresh blood as his vicious gaze looked like he wished he could turn Mu Chen into mincemeat.
However, Mu Chen paid no attention to him as he shifted his gaze outside the battlefield, and onto the Blood Hawk King, whose face was ashen, and said with a smile, “Lord Blood Hawk King, I wish to know when my Nine Nether Palace can receive those hundred cities.”
The Blood Hawk King’s face twitched as he eerily looked at Mu Chen. “Since when can a lowly Domain Lord speak with this King?”
“Hmm?!”
Along with his cold voice, there was a terrifying Spiritual Energy pressure that enveloped Mu Chen.
Boom!
But when that Spiritual Energy was just released, ten beams of Spiritual Energy that were blazing with purple flames swiftly shot over at the Blood Hawk King’s vital parts without any leniency.
The Blood Hawk King stomped his feet as blood-red Spiritual Energy swept out, forming into a light screen that shielded him.
Boom! Boom!
Those Spiritual Energy light beams heavily slammed against the light screen. Spiritual Energy fluctuations wreaked havoc as the traces of purple flames stuck onto it, swiftly dissolving the light screen at a rapid speed.
At this sight, the Blood Hawk King’s face also slightly changed as he hastily took several steps back. Spiritual Energy exploded from within his body to scatter those purple flames. Shortly after, he looked at Nine Nether, who wasn’t far away, with a dark expression.
“Blood Hawk King, you are getting more and more shameless.” A mocking smile rose on Nine Nether’s cool and elegant face as she continued with a sneer, “If you are unconvinced, why don’t we try as well?”
“Do you think I’m afraid of you?!” The Blood Hawk King coldly responded.
“Enough!”
However, just when the two were about to fight, a bark abruptly resounded in the sky as the Sky Vulture Emperor’s figure slowly appeared.
When everyone saw his arrival, they immediately bowed.
“Since you have lost your bet, you can only acknowledge it. Otherwise, where will the rules be?” The Sky Vulture Emperor cast a glance at the Blood Hawk King.
The Blood Hawk King clenched his teeth and could only nod his head.
“Okay, since the battle is done, the Nine Kings will follow me. The Expedition War of my Great Havenlaw Domain will soon start.” The Sky Vulture Emperor said with a wave of his hand.
Hearing his words, many of the experts present felt a chill in their hearts. Their Great Havenlaw Domain was finally going to start the expedition?
