The Great Ruler (Web Novel)

Vroom!

The sound of the bowstring's vibration seemed to remain in the sky. However, at the same time, the dim golden light made a sky-shattering impact directly against the huge purple finger.

Kaboom!

At the moment of collision, the space collapsed. Countless space fragments flew out from the collision, turning the sky within a million miles into total desolation. Numerous eyes were locked onto the collision's point of impact. They could feel that both Mu Chen and Sage Zi Yun were showing their true skills in front of each other without any sense of probing each other. Therefore, this fight between two of them reflected the depth of their experience.

Boom!

Up in the sky, the huge purple finger launched a terrible purple storm with a tremendous momentum. On the other side, the dull golden light still remained untouched under the purple storm's rage.

Sage Zi Yun floated in the sky. As he stared at the dim golden lights, his face became slightly gloomy. This was because deep inside, he felt that it could still be a threat to him.

"This guy here is truly strange!" Sage Zi Yun whispered to himself. Although Mu Chen is only a Half Step to Complete Earthly Sovereign, his attacks are shocking beyond expectation. He is strong enough to be on par with me, a Heavenly Sovereign. Sage Zi Yun's eyes flickered. He took a deep breath and immediately formed a seal single-handedly.

Boom!

The purplish aura began to coagulate on top of the huge purple finger. The purple starry sky expanded continuously. From far away, it looked like a starry sky, and inside it, there was a purple star rotating incessantly, releasing an incredible power. As the power of the huge purple finger continued to skyrocket, the faint golden light eventually began to show signs of being suppressed.

After seeing such movement, Liu Tiandao and the group of top powers from the Mu Estate suddenly changed their expressions. Their fists clenched, and their hearts went up into their throats. They clearly understood the signs in this fight. If Mu Chen managed to win the fight, he could then prove that even with the rank of Half Step to Complete Earthly Sovereign, he could still resist the power from Sage Zi Yun, a Heavenly Sovereign.

However, if he failed, Reverend Thunder and Golden Eagle King, who were glaring at him like a tiger eyeing its prey, would intercede and destroy him along with the Mu Estate.

Under countless nervous eyes, Mu Chen stared at the purple storm that became more dreadful with every passing minute. The tremendous power surrounding the storm had reached a deadly stage. Such an attack would have completely blown him away if he had still been an Upper Earthly Sovereign, but fortunately, he had acquired a tremendous increase of power that now made him better and stronger than ever. Therefore, he lifted his finger and gently pointed in the direction of the faint golden light. A soft voice came out of his mouth, "Break!"

Boom!

The moment his voice dropped, the faintly shining golden light completely gave up the suppressing force and shined brighter and brighter like a rising Golden Blazing Sun. The the air's indescribable sharpness seemed completely unstoppable, as if it could pierce through heaven and earth!

Ring!

In the golden light, golden arrows trembled violently. The next moment, sophisticated ancient runes appeared on top of those arrows, and on the tips of the arrows, there were golden spiral runes.

Shazam!

When the golden arrows vibrated, the people could hear a subtle humming sound, but in the next second, the golden light had actually pierced through the huge purple finger. The terrible purple storm was unable to resist the golden arrow's power.

Wow!

There were deafening sounds of astonishment in heaven and earth.

"What?!" Sage Zi Yun's expression changed drastically when he saw what had just happened. He did not expect that Mu Chen's attack could reach such a fierce and swift level.

Zoom!

The faint golden light pierced through the space and then charged directly toward Sage Zi Yun. Seeing the golden light coming his way, Sage Zi Yun's face was very dignified. The smell of incoming danger had induced fear in him, giving him goosebumps. He let out a warcry, sending a command to the huge purple giant shadow behind him to release a huge punch. The purplish punch was so gigantic that it covered the sky. At the same time, his body instantly retreated.

Bang!

The golden arrows clashed with the giant golden punch without hesitation. However, such a fierce attack failed to stop the golden arrows, causing their golden lights to immediately fade away. Moreover, the huge punch released by the giant purple shadow was broken into pieces at the moment of impact.

The sky was covered by a purplish light. After the collision, the giant purple shadow retreated furiously as its broken arm forced it to back off. However, after breaking his arm, the power on the tips of the golden arrows was eventually completely spent, causing it to break apart.

Golden liquid flowed down from the arrows and eventually landed in Mu Chen's hand, slowly wriggling like jelly. "This must be a material used to build a magnificent sacred item." Mu Chen's eyes were glittering while looking at the Varja Spirit Destroying Plasma. The effect of the previous attack was mainly because of the plasma in his hand.

Without the Varja Spirit Destroying Plasma's sharpness reinforcement, Mu Chen's arrow could only put Sage Zi Yun in a panicked state but could not destroy the Sovereign Celestial Body's arm. The golden liquid was like a living thing, flowing on the tip of Mu Chen's finger. He lifted his head and looked at Sage Zi Yun in the distance. His face was pale, and his eyes were gloomy.

"Do I still look like an ant this time?" Mu Chen smiled calmly while looking at Sage Zi Yun. Sage Zi Yun's face was twitching hard. Although he was extremely mad inside and wanted to retort, anyone could see that Mu Chen's previous attack had forced him to the edge of the cliff.

"Seems like you are not convinced yet." Mu Chen smiled at Sage Zi Yun and single-handedly formed a seal. Instantly, hundreds of Immortal Divine Runes appeared and coagulated together, forming a giant golden bow.

Vroom!

Mu Chen pulled the bowstring slightly. Golden lights burst out from the vibration of the bowstring. At the same time, the Varja Spirit Destroying Plasma split and surrounded the top of the golden light.

"Again." Mu Chen shot an arrow and raised his palm. Countless eyes could see that hundreds of Immortal Divine runes gathered and materialized into yet another golden bow.

Ring!

The bowstring vibrated, followed by the flight of another arrow.

Ring! Ring!

A few moments later, Mu Chen's entire body burst with golden lights. Roughly ten streams of golden light rays shot out from him, shooting toward Sage Zi Yun all at once from all directions.

Facing the ten golden arrows aimed at him from all sides, Sage Zi Yun's expression was twisted. Previously, he had already experienced the power of a golden arrow. However, there were ten of them this time. If he got hit by even one of them, he would definitely be killed. Therefore, he could not afford to be negligent. He let out another warcry, and a purplish luminous burst of color suddenly blasted out from his mouth, forming a purplish cloud that surrounded both of them.

"It's the Violet Divine Cloud!" Looking at the purple clouds, the entire heavens and earth instantly burst into a loud commotion, because everyone from the North Territory knew that Sage Zi Yun had gotten an immortal sacred item, the Violet Divine Cloud. It was an extremely powerful protective item. If it was to be activated, even top powers of the same rank could barely break it apart. Normally, Sage Zi Yun would rarely activate this sacred item. However, he had finally decided to use it because Mu Chen had become an unbelievably dangerous threat to him.

Reverend Thunder and Golden Eagle King had twisted expressions when they saw what just happened. Their level of power was equally matched with Sage Zi Yun's. If he was pushed to the edge of the cliff, it meant that Mu Chen could also be a threat to them.

"This guy… We have underestimated his power!" They looked into each other's eyes, and deep inside were signs of chilling anxiety.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As commotion arose all over the place, countless golden light rays crashed fiercely onto the purple cloud and burst with a deafening sound. The entire space continued to collapse, and the purple cloud also violently tumbled under the bombardment.

However, this purple cloud had tremendously terrifying defensive power. In the previous attack, a single golden arrow had been enough to panic Sage Zi Yun. But now, since he was hiding deep inside the purple cloud, even though there were ten golden arrows crashing down toward him, the attack only managed to do minor damage to the purple cloud.

Sage Zi Yun, who was currently hiding deep inside the purple cloud, looked at the unceasingly tumbling cloud and stared at Mu Chen. "Boy, I acknowledge that you have some powerful attacks. However, how many more times can you cast them on me?"

Sage Zi Yun was a Heavenly Sovereign with outstanding insight, after all. It was impossible for Mu Chen to cast such powerful attacks continuously, no matter how strong he was. He was only a Half Step to Complete Earthly Sovereign, after all. However, Sage Zi Yun had to keep on hiding behind the purple cloud and wait for Mu Chen to use up his energy. By the time Mu Chen exhausted his powers, he would have the complete advantage to take him down and kill him. Such a strategy might tarnish his reputation slightly, but the sacrifice was worthwhile if he could take the victory.

Mu Chen smiled when he heard Sage Zi Yun's voice. He nodded and said, "This type of attack really does consume a lot of my energy." With his level of power, casting ten Immortal Golden Arrows continuously had pushed him to his limit.

Sage Zi Yun smiled. Once Mu Chen made a mistake in the attack, he would be able to cast a counterattack. However, Mu Chen gave him a strange smile followed by forming a double-handed seal before he could even finish sneering. Just as the seals were formed, the space surrounding Mu Chen began to fluctuate. Two figures, one black and one white, slowly appeared.

Right after the black and white Mu Chens appeared, they raised their palms at the same time. There was a sudden mass emergence of Immortal Divine Runes, and they gathered onto the Immortal Golden Body. The runes then instantly materialized into two golden bows in their hands. They pulled the bowstrings, locking onto Sage Zi Yun.

Mu Chen laughed, and his voice slowly reverberated in the heavens and the earth. "Now, I shall give it a try and see how long can this turtle shell can protect you from my attacks."

The smile on Sage Zi Yun's face froze when he saw what was coming to him.
