The pale palm stretched out from the blood egg and lightly gripped the crystal torrent that filled the sky, causing it to explode. The horrific power was enough to bring the whole world into silence.
Mu Chen’s expression changed slightly at the moment, gazing sharply at the broken blood egg. As the eggshell shattered, he could feel a terrifying wave of power condense and form.
Boom!
Just then, a huge blood-red beam violently burst out from the eggshell and rose up into the sky, directly hitting the crystal pagoda suspended in the sky. The two collided with a clang, and the crystal pagoda was hurled directly backwards.
Mu Chen’s expression was somber. With a wave of his sleeves, the crystal pagoda fell into his sleeves. He stared at the blood egg intensely, with a flash of terror in his eyes.
Creak.
Under his gaze, the blood egg quickly cracked. The pale palm stretched out and peeled off the eggshell. Finally, everybody saw a naked boy stand up from the eggshell. The boy had a slender body, and his eyes were blood-red, as if there were a sea of blood condensing inside. His long white hair fluttered in the wind, making him a charming figure, but the violent destructive energy that emanated from him made the entire Demonic Blood Mountain tremble.
There was no emotion on his attractive face. His blood eyes swept past, cold and indifferent. At the same time, countless gusts of red wind whistled around his body. An indescribable oppression spread, and in the sky, the blood clouds condensed, turning into a blood-red hurricane, falling from the sky and enveloping the whole world.
The top powers of the indigenous people looked at the white-haired boy and started trembling madly. The horrible oppression almost caused them to lose their minds, and their trembling heels almost brought them to their knees.
Bai Susu’s pretty face also turned pale. Although she did not know how powerful the white-haired boy was, she intuitively sensed that his skills were through the roof, and he was much stronger than the head Blood Demon Lord.
Standing beside Mu Chen, her petite figure trembled slightly. If her resolve had not been strong enough, she would probably have been unable to withstand the fear she felt from the bottom of her heart, and she would have run away.
When her fear reached the maximum level, Mu Chen gently patted her on the shoulder. The spiritual energy light rays shielded her from the terrible oppression.
“Master.” Bai Susu looked at Mu Chen gratefully, but she found that his expression was somber to a degree she had never seen before. His eyes were filled with intense contemplation as he gazed at the white-haired boy.
“I never expected a Demon Emperor to be born into the Fiend Blood Tribe,” Mu Chen said slowly. The thing he was most worried about in this trip had finally appeared. A Demon Emperor appearing among the Fiend Blood Tribe was equivalent to a Heavenly Sovereign. Faced with this existence, even Mu Chen could sense the danger. He knew how powerful a Demon Emperor was. He didn’t have much confidence when faced with a real Demon Emperor, despite easily defeating the Blood Demon Lord.
“Today’s task has just been made more difficult!”
At the top of Blood Demon Mountain, the white-haired boy didn’t care about his nudity. He just opened his mouth, and the blood-red eggshell turned into a bloody beam that he swallowed whole.
He then looked at Mu Chen and said indifferently, “Thanks to you, I was born today. Otherwise, my birth would probably have been delayed for hundreds of years.” Although he had just been born, he had absorbed a lot of his clan’s blood essence. Even the Blood Demon Lord sacrificed his blood essence to irrigate him. He thus owned some of the Blood Demon Lord’s memories.
Mu Chen sighed. “I never thought that a Demon Emperor could be born into the Fiend Blood Tribe.”
The white-haired boy, who was also the Blood Demon King of the Fiend Blood Tribe, said indifferently, “Though you have contributed to my birth, you still have to die today.” His voice was slightly hoarse but completely unemotional, containing a world of indifference.
Mu Chen smiled uncaringly. He knew that it would be life or death when he saw the Blood Demon King, and he never thought there could be an amicable resolution.
“Indeed, I would like to learn some of your tricks.”
Mu Chen could not throw in the towel, even though he knew he was a real Demon Emperor. The outcome would only be known after their battle.
“Your blood essence is abundant. I will refine you into a blood slave rather than kill you,” the Blood Demon King said while staring at Mu Chen.
Mu Chen smiled as a purplish-gold light shined behind him. The Immortal Golden Body appeared, and he was standing on top of the Immortal Golden Body’s head, with the black and white Mu Chens standing on his shoulders, respectively.
The three sat down, and the vast spiritual energy poured into the Immortal Golden Body. All of sudden, a golden beam burst from the Immortal Golden Body, making it look like a huge purplish-gold sun.
Mu Chen had answered the Blood Demon King with his actions.
“He is overestimating himself,” the Blood Demon King said indifferently while watching the scene.
Mu Chen didn’t reply. The three figures formed a seal, and the purplish-gold God Runes on the Immortal Golden Body’s surface condensed and burst out, suspended around its body like a huge dragon. Within a few seconds, 200 Immortal God Runes appeared. Mu Chen did not plan to proceed tentatively, and with the help of the two manifestations, he immediately pushed the number of Immortal God Runes to the extreme.
The Immortal God Runes entrenched themselves, emitting a purplish-gold beam, causing even the void to shake. Even the Blood Demon Lord would be seriously injured in an instant when faced with such huge power.
“Immortal God Runes, Myriad of Change, Immortal God Bell!” Following Mu Chen’s yell, the 200 Immortal God Runes burst up into the sky and turned into a huge purplish-gold bell in the next instant. It fell from the sky, leading to an explosion of the void, enveloping the Blood Demon King.
As the golden bell fell, Mu Chen waved his sleeves, and dozens of Immortal God Runes condensed again, turning into a huge gold pillar that whistled out and slammed into the golden bell.
Clang!
The impact shook the world, and the Demonic Blood Mountain started to collapse. The huge sound waves spread, tearing up the sky. All the boulders around the golden bell turned into ashes under the impact of the sound waves, and the entire ground collapsed layer by layer.
This scene horrified countless people. If the external sound waves were that horrific, how devastating the effect was within the golden bell could not be imagined. Mu Chen’s blow was very intimidating.
Bai Susu showed her joy. She looked at Mu Chen, but saw that his expression remained somber. He did not relax after his attack. He knew his attack would knock down a Heavenly Sovereign, but it probably did not do much damage to a Demon Emperor.
Just as that thought passed through Mu Chen’s mind, the golden bell violently vibrated, and everyone saw a deep palm print appear on the bell.
Ping!
The huge golden bell shattered from the force of the blow, and the Blood Demon King’s figure emerged. He was uninjured, apart from some red marks. However, the red marks quickly disappeared.
Hiss!
Bai Susu and the rest inhaled sharply. They never expected the Blood Demon King to be so formidable that such a level of attack was just a minor annoyance to him. Even Bai Susu, who had so much faith in Mu Chen, couldn’t help but feel worried when she realized how powerful the Demon Emperor was.
“He is the Demon Emperor, indeed.” Mu Chen expected this, but he still sighed when he saw that the Blood Demon King was uninjured. There was a huge difference between the power of the Blood Demon Lord and the Blood Demon Emperor.
On the mountaintop, the Blood Demon King looked at Mu Chen coldly with his blood-red eyes, then lifted his finger and pointed at him. His fingertip emitted a blood ray, and a drop of fresh red blood flew off of his fingertip. The blood droplet turned into a round blood pearl, and with a slight shake, it penetrated through the void and dashed nimbly towards Mu Chen.
Mu Chen watched the scene with a serious expression. He did not dare underestimate it. Taking a deep breath, millions of purple golden lights erupted from the Immortal Golden Body, intertwining and finally forming a Purple Gold Mountain.
Dong!
The blood hurtled towards the mountain that seemed to be made of purple gold.
Boom!
At that instant, as if the sky were going to fall, the seemingly indestructible Purple Golden Mountain collapsed at the moment of contact, and an indescribable force exploded outwards.
Ping!
The sky collapsed, and the earth trembled. The purplish-gold light dissipated in the distorted space. The giant Immortal Golden Body seemed to be severely injured, and it was pushed backwards thousands of miles by the horrifying force, its feet leaving two deep tracks on the ground.
Seeing this, Bai Susu and the indigenous people were horrified. It was the first time they had seen Mu Chen defeated since they had met him. Obviously, the Blood Demon King’s strength was way beyond Mu Chen’s.
In the distance, the Immortal Golden Body finally recovered, and Mu Chen, who was standing on its head, looked down at its body with a somber expression and found that many cracks had appeared. Just a blow had already caused the Immortal Golden Body to fall into such a state. The Blood Demon King’s power was truly formidable.
Huh.
Mu Chen took a deep breath, and his eyes flashed fiercely. The Blood Demon King was indeed formidable, but he had experienced much in life, and he would not go down without a fight. “The battle today is definitely a life-and-death battle.”
