Myriad Islands Continent.

On the vast continent, the gigantic Transfer Spiritual Array emitted bright Spiritual Light as people walked in and out of it within the bustling city. Mu Chen, Luo Li, and Long Xiang walked out of the Transfer Spiritual Array. The moment they did so, Mu Chen felt the strong wind from the sea blowing in his face. The taste of the sea filled the entire land. Even the spiritual energy between heaven and earth was incredibly moist.

“So, this is the Myriad Islands Continent…?” Mu Chen was a little stunned by the bustling atmosphere in the city. The human traffic was not any less than it was in the Western Kingdom. Rumor had it that the entire region was surrounded by an endless ocean, and an island as huge as some continents sat within it.

Similar to Tianluo Continent, there was also no supreme power ruling over the Myriad Island Continent, and the chaotic situations were almost the same as those on Tianluo Continent. With many heroes and powerhouses fighting with each other, battles were common on the Myriad Islands Continent.

“This is Moluo Island. The one who rules this island is an Upper Earthly Sovereign who has a little fame on this Myriad Islands Continent,” said Long Xiang, who was standing to the side. Apparently, he seemed to know this island quite well.

Mu Chen nodded and asked, “Where is Spiritual Jade Island?”

“It’s still far from here, so it will be about two more days before we reach it.” Long Xiang hesitated for a while before he continued, “Little Lord, Lion King Gu is not someone easy to deal with. Beware of him.”

Mu Chen smiled. “Don’t worry. So long as there is no Heavenly Sovereign on Spiritual Jade Island, he might not be able to keep me there with his strength of Complete Earthly Sovereign.” Even though Mu Chen was only an Upper Earthly Sovereign now, he was confident that he could get away from a Complete Earthly Sovereign.

Long Xiang did not say anything else when he heard this. He made a move and beamed across the sky, flashing towards the endless ocean. Mu Chen and Luo Li looked at each other and followed him immediately.

Within the Myriad Islands Continent, the ocean was vast and full of various natural disasters. Sometimes the spiritual energy merged with the continuous cold current forming a frozen waterfall that was hazardous even for Earthly Sovereigns. Luckily, with Long Xiang’s guidance, Mu Chen and Luo Li did not meet many obstacles. Two days later, they were close to their final destination.

…

The three figures stood on the surface of the ocean. Mu Chen looked far ahead with spiritual light flickering in his eyes. The scenery in the distance became clearer. A huge emerald island appeared. The island was shrouded by the intense spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It was a rare and precious location. Even from a distance, Mu Chen could feel the spiritual energy lingering above the island. The intensity of the spiritual energy on the island was stronger than that of any islands he had seen before throughout the years.

“The Ancient Budur Clan lives up to its name, indeed. No one dares to eye such a remarkable land, even though it is the best location for cultivation.” Mu Chen let out a sigh. If this valuable land was occupied by some other top-notch forces, they might endure constant harassment, even with a Complete Earthly Sovereign guarding the place.

However, no conflicts could be found within miles around this island. Apparently, these regions were under Spiritual Jade Island’s protection. Other forces did not dare to poke their noses into it.

“I will sneak onto the island and find a chance to save Ling Xi to prevent Lion King Gu from using her to threaten you,” Long Xiang said to Mu Chen.

Mu Chen nodded. “Luo Li and I will hide at the bottom of the ocean. Be careful.” If they could save Ling Xi without having to fight, that would be the best choice. As for Long Xiang, his strength of half step to Complete Earthly Sovereign could not be taken lightly. Hence, even if Lion King Gu sensed his presence, he could not do anything to Long Xiang for the time being.

Long Xiang agreed with a nod. He took a deep breath and beamed out towards Spiritual Jade Island. Mu Chen and Luo Li submerged their bodies into the sea and concealed their spiritual energy aura. They dived in closer to Spiritual Jade Island through the sea.

Shoo!

Long Xiang traveled, and he soon closed in on the island. No one stopped him. In a flash, he appeared before the black pagoda deep in the island. An elder in an ash-grey robe was sitting quietly with his legs crossed under the black pagoda just as he had before Long Xiang had left. When Long Xiang landed, he opened his eyes. With a smile, he looked at Long Xiang and asked, “Have you completed your mission?”

Looking calm, Long Xiang said, “Mu Chen is currently the Child of the Continent of the Western Kingdom Continent. When he was just a Lower Earthly Sovereign, he defeated an Upper Earthly Sovereign. Now he has hit Upper Earthly Sovereign, so even I can do nothing to him. If you want to capture him, I’m afraid Protector Gu will have to do it personally.”

Lion King Gu was not at all angry. He grinned and nodded at the same time. Without adding any further comments, a slight tinge of eeriness could be found in his eyes. “In that case, leave this matter to me and take your hands off of it from here. By the way, someone from the clan came to Spiritual Jade Island, too. Let me introduce to you.”

Long Xiang narrowed his eyes slightly once he heard this.

“Hehe, Long Xiang, long time, no see.” A figure slowly walked out from the bamboo forest on the right. He was wearing an oversized red robe and had a head full of white hair. A gigantic black fish was embroidered on his vibrant robe. It looked exceptionally eerie.

When Long Xiang saw this person, he could not help but change his expression. He let out a cry, “Evil Fish Liang? What are you doing here?!”

Evil Fish Liang was a member of the Ancient Budur Clan, and he was also a Complete Earthly Sovereign. His strength was not any less than Lion King Gu’s. Long Xiang did not expect that Lion King Gu would invite him over.

“Hehe, Long Xiang, you look surprised that I’m here.” Lion King Gu smiled with a gleam in his eyes. Then, he looked to the left of the bamboo forest and smiled. “I didn’t say only one old friend was here.”

Long Xiang felt his heart thumping as he turned to the left. A green-robed elder had been standing between the bamboo trees without anyone knowing. The green-robed elder had a scraggy body that looked like a desiccated corpse. His eyes were ghastly cold. Various colorful snake runes seemed to be engraved on his robe. Similarly, he exuded a tyrannical spiritual energy fluctuation. Apparently, the green-robed elder was another authentic Complete Earthly Sovereign.

“Green snake Ancestor?!” Long Xiang took a deep breath. This old fellow may not have been a member of the Ancient Budur Clan, but he was one of the renowned people in the Myriad Islands Continent. Basically, he was one of the most powerful Sovereigns in the continent.

Long Xiang was not expecting his presence. Three Complete Earthly Sovereigns were now gathered in this place!

Lion King Gu looked at the two and said with a smile, “Sigh, I’m getting old, so I had to be more careful than ever. I set up a trap for the perpetrator, but I was also worried that I would screw things up. Hence, I invited these two good friends to save the day. Long Xiang, what do you think?” Lion King Gu looked at Long Xiang.

Long Xiang felt a heavy weight on his heart, but he nodded with a poker face. This old fellow was indeed cunning. In order to deal with Mu Chen, he had resorted to such a lineup. The situation today just got complicated.

Lion King Gu gave a heart-warming smile and said, “If that is the case, why don’t you invite the two of them here, Long Xiang?”

Radiant light surged in Long Xiang’s eyes. He looked coldly at Lion King Gu. This old fellow had already sensed Mu Chen and Luo Li lurking around.

Roar! Long Xiang let out a long roar towards the sky. A burst of laughter that sounded like the roaring of a dragon and an elephant resounded throughout heaven and earth. His roar was filled with warnings, and three distinct roars were sent out to convey a message that there were three Complete Earthly Sovereigns.

The Green Snake Ancestor knit his eyebrows as soon as he heard it. The sharp hissing sound of a snake rang out in an attempt to conceal the Dragon-Elephant’s roars. Lion King Gu stood up and looked outside. With a volume that rang like a large bell, he said, “Perpetrator Mu Chen, since you dared to come here, why don’t you show yourself? Otherwise, I’ll hand Long Xiang and Ling Xi over to the clan for internal punishment.” His voice rumbled across the land, and the sonic wave even created waves across the nearby ocean.

Rumble!

As soon as he was done speaking, rough waves started to crash in the ocean just outside Spiritual Jade Island. Waves that spread across thousands of miles gathered and swept towards Spiritual Jade Island like dark clouds looming over their heads. Massive dark figures, accompanied by the waves, appeared above the island.

The three Complete Earthly Sovereigns cast their razor-sharp eyes towards the figures above the waves. Two figures stood on the water. One of them was a young man with piercing eyes. He exuded a sharp aura as though he were an unrivaled, treasured sword that could inspire fear with just a look at it.

Mu Chen stepped on the waves and looked down from on top of them. He stared at the three Complete Earthly Sovereigns and finally stopped his gaze on Lion King Gu. His calming voice slowly resounded. “What can you, an old fool, do when I show myself?”
