The light spots surged in continuously and finally enveloped Mu Chen completely. As he closed his eyes, it was as if a consciousness rose into the air, shooting straight into the endless void under the protection of countless lights of prayers…
However, it was not long before Mu Chen suddenly felt something and his consciousness opened its eyes. It was as if he had entered a complete state of disorder. This place was like how it was at the beginning of heaven and earth, as there was no separation of space and even time passed by extremely slowly.
As Mu Chen looked at this space of disorder, his consciousness gradually spread apart to sense the hidden Worldly Soul within this space of disorder. This form of sensing did not gain any response at the start, but as the lights of prayers around him grew immensely stronger, he finally felt a mysterious vibration that was suddenly approaching him!

Mu Chen’s consciousness went to it quickly. Then, he witnessed beams of light fluctuating within the space of disorder. The beams of light bloomed and, like the sea, they sent waves into the midst of the disorder!
The disordered light seemed as if it contained endless vitality. That type of vast vitality made Mu Chen feel a little shocked. The energy was extremely pure and ancient, as if it had born at the formation of the world…
Mu Chen stared at the ocean of disordered light. He could feel that, within this ocean, there was a boundless and vast vibration. Clearly, this was the Worldly Soul of this world!
Whoosh.
As Mu Chen gaze at the scene before him, the tides within the sea of disorder suddenly rose. In the midst of the sea of disorder, an enormous swirl formed, which was immediately followed by a ball of disorder that was rising slowly from within it.
The glowing ball of disorder was like a heart that was beeping faintly, and along with its every movement, the whole world trembled. When it breathed, winds and clouds gathered, tides came in and out, and the sun rose while the moon fell…
“This is the Worldly Soul?” Mu Chen murmured as he looked at that glowing ball of disorder. Even though he couldn’t feel any sense of consciousness coming from it, he could still sense a hint of spirituality emanating from it.
Then, the expression in Mu Chen’s eyes suddenly froze, as he could see that, upon this glowing ball of disorder, bloody veins were scrambling all over it! These veins that intertwined on its surface were like maggots clutching onto bones, making the glowing ball of disorder appear extremely disproportionate.
“Is it because this world was invaded by the Fiend Blood Tribe and countless lives were taken that this Worldly Soul has also experienced erosion?” Mu Chen wondered aloud as his gaze flashed and apprehension filled his heart.
However, this condition made him feel a little happier. This was because, if the Worldly Soul already felt the danger that was brought by the Fiend Blood Tribe, then there would be less of a hindrance in accepting him! At this thought, Mu Chen’s consciousness slowly got nearer to it.
“Worldly Soul, I can help all of you banish the Fiend Blood Tribe and return vitality to this world, but I will need your power.” Mu Chen did not hide too much, but directly stated his aim, knowing that, although the Worldly Soul had no consciousness, it still had some spirituality. Hence, it could judge the jeopardy of this world by relying on its instincts.
As Mu Chen finished speaking, the glowing ball of disorder seemed to tremble slightly, but there was still no clear movement. Seeing that, Mu Chen knew the it was because he wasn’t from this world that caused the Worldly Soul to resist him a little. If Bai Susu was standing here now, then she would have gotten its help much faster.
But, he did not rush it, but just repeated solemnly, “The Blood Demon Emperor is powerful. If we let him escape, I will definitely be defeated by him. By that time, in order to protect myself, I can only retreat, This would mean that this side of the world would be invaded by the Fiend Blood Tribe and all lives would be instantly turned into blood sustenance.” ( ReadNovelFull )
He then added, “When that time comes, even you, the Worldly Soul, will hardly escape their hands. Then, you all will be eroded by the Blood Demon Emperor and absorbed so that he may refine himself.”
Once Mu Chen said those words, which contained such a heavy sense of tragedy, the Worldly Soul too was clearly influenced. The disordered light around it uncontrollably intensified, but in the end, there was still no visible movement forward.
Mu Chen’s gaze flashed, as he was growing a bit impatient. If he could refine this Worldly Soul, it would then be equal to his becoming the lord of this world. Then, all living things would be under the control of his thoughts. Hence, as it was their protector, the Worldly Soul clearly did not really trust Mu Chen, as he was an outsider.
Hence, Mu Chen took another step forward and said in a deep tone, “If I become the lord of this world, I swear from the bottom of my heart to protect the peacefulness of this world, and as long as I have breath, I will not let that Extraterrestrial Race step foot into this world again!”
His voice was bright and distant and immediately echoed throughout the disorder. His oath came from deep within his heart. Anyone else might not have realized this, but this Worldly Soul was born along with the Heaven and Earth, so it was intensely sensitive. If one’s heart was not true, it would not be able to escape its senses at all.
Hence, not long after Mu Chen uttered his oath, the Worldly Soul finally exploded into millions of disordered rays, and within that disorder, a sound of a godlike tune seemed to emanate. Within that disorderness, hundreds of millions of shadows of living beings seemed to be faintly appearing!
At this sight, Mu Chen couldn’t help but become exhilarated! An uncontrollable happiness warmed his heart. He knew that this meant that the Worldly Soul had agreed!
Then, at a twitch of Mu Chen’s thoughts, his physical body, which was standing outside Mount Blood Demon, disappeared into thin air immediately, only to reappear within the disorder in the next instance. Mu Chen’s consciousness returned to his body as he glanced at the glowing ball of disorder.
He then moved his body right through the heavy and thick curtains of disordered rays before landing on the glowing ball of disorder. He sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes slightly. Meanwhile, his body sank right into the glowing ball of disorder, bit by bit.
Amid this disorder, it was as if time was completely stagnant, which just happened to give him enough time to charge into the Heavenly Sovereign level! As his physical body fused into the glowing ball of disorder, his body trembled suddenly.
In the next moment, Mu Chen felt as if he was in a sea of disorder as the boundless and vast disordered energy flew in immediately. Finally, it transformed into a beam of disorder and poured into his body slowly from the top of his Celestial Spirit Cover.
Boom!
That level of disordered rays was the primeval energy that had been birthed at the very beginning of this world, and it was boundless and vast! In terms of grades, even though it was still able to be considered a top-tier energy within the Great Thousand World, its existence was scarce. Only those worlds that had given birth to a Worldly Soul could obtain even a little bit of this energy.
As he felt the vast energy surging around him, Mu Chen immediately launched a cultivation technique. In that instant, the blood and flesh in his body trembled before completely devouring the vast energy that was flowing into his body.
In just a few moments, Mu Chen felt as if he had swallowed several billion units of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid. In that very moment, he felt a faint shake in his heart.
He did not think that the energy of this Worldly Soul could be so refined and endless! It was really deserving of its fame as a spiritual being that had accompanied the birth of Heaven and Earth!
His head was spinning, but he quickly calmed his mind in order to gradually immerse himself into a deep-leveled cultivation mode. Mu Chen was not in a hurry, but just allowed the disordered light rays to continuously pour in. Meanwhile, the spiritual energy in his body also grew at an astonishing rate.
Mu Chen’s physical body sat in this manner amid the disorder for quite some time. In fact, it was as if a few decades had passed. His figure remained unmoved, like a huge rock, and even his breath was slowly getting fainter and fainter.
…
After an unknown amount of time, Mu Chen’s stone-like body seemed to have faintly started to shake. In the next moment, his eyes finally opened slowly.
Buzz!
The moment he opened his eyes, a beam of refined light shot out. That beam was indescribably illuminating, and it actually pierced a hole through the disorder before finally disappearing into it!
Mu Chen gradually closed his palms. He was feeling the indescribable surging spiritual energy within his body. A simple tremble of his body felt as if there were endless strikes of thunder crashing in his body.
Boom!
Hundreds of millions of beams of spiritual light exploded from Mu Chen’s body, and in between the glimmer of those spiritual lights, Mu Chen’s body instantly started to expand as he sat cross-legged in the space of disorder.
His body gave out a beam of holy light that made him seem like the sun, releasing light amid the disorder. As Mu Chen looked at his body, he could sense that almost every inch of his blood and flesh contained an indescribably powerful spiritual energy.
In fact, the spiritual energy so completely filled his body, it was at the point where he could not stand even a little bit more! That feeling was like a lake whose waters were filled to its brink.
Right in this moment, he has already reached the limit below the Heavenly Sovereign, and according to his estimations, with the horrifying spiritual energy in his body, if he met another top power who had already reached the Heavenly Sovereign level, then it might be possible for him to destroy them with just his palm! Up to this point, Mu Chen could already feel the presence of a shackled barrier. That barrier was extremely strong, and it had obstructed all his ways to ascend thus far.
Presumably, that is the Barrier of the Heavenly Sovereign… Mu Chen’s expression sank as he realized this.
Now that he had already reached the limit, if he continued on, he might be able to break the barrier. But, there was also a big possibility that his physical body could be filled to the point of bursting! Then, when the spiritual energy retaliated, it was possible that would be his downfall! The possibility of two such different and extreme endings certainly made people fearful, not daring not try this often!
Mu Chen’s gaze glimmered. After a while, his expression suddenly turned sharp.
The path of cultivation was essentially going through hardships and training. In order to reach the peak, the keenness and courage to advance bravely was needed.
As today was the day that his great opportunity had presented itself, if Mu Chen missed it, it was unknown how many months or years it would take before this kind of opportunity came around again. At the thought of that, Mu Chen’s expression turned serious, and there were no longer any signs of hesitation and fear within his eyes.
He then looked up into the void and said in a low voice, “Worldly Soul, please assist me to break this Heavenly Barrier!”
There was only silence. Then, after a few moments, numerous disordered light rays spread throughout the surroundings, while a glowing ball of disorder rose high into the air, then shrunk as it whirled. Finally, it shot downwards and transformed into a ray of disordered light before falling right into Mu Chen’s Celestial Spirit Cover!
Mu Chen took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes. Win or lose, it would all depend on this move!
