“The two men will clash with each other at last…,” an onlooker said.

Under the green sea, the face-off between Mu Chen and Huang Xuanzhi had attracted the attention of many Divine Beast Clans, who were all staring at the water mirror. These two men were regarded as the strongest within this battle in the Deification Pool, and their confrontation would be a real battle between a dragon and a tiger!

“I don’t know if Mu Chen, who stormed the Budur Ancient Clan, or the supreme talent from the Phoenix Clan is more powerful…”

“Of course Huang Xuanzhi is stronger! Haven’t you seen how he dealt with the trio before?”

“It is true that Huang Xuanzhi’s demeanor was truly amazing back then. Those three were, at the very least, the supreme talents of all of the Divine Beast Clans. But, when facing Huang Xuanzhi, they could not resist!”

Everyone sighed and commented among themselves, as Huang Xuanzhi’s attack was indeed quite shocking. Although no one had ever looked down on him, they were still shocked when they saw his power.

Therefore, at this time, the vast majority of the onlookers were optimistic about Huang Xuanzhi’s winning. After all, they did not really think that Mu Chen was qualified to compete with him.

“After today, Mu Chen’s reputation, which he fought so hard to establish, will become a mere stepping stone for Huang Xuanzhi. Then, Huang Xuanzhi will be at the summit of the Great Thousand World’s greatest supreme talents!” someone whispered in a low voice.

Tianhuang Clan Leader hear the whisper clearly, causing a worried look to fill his face. Although Mu Chen’s reputation was not weak, Huang Xuanzhi’s previous attack had shocked him to his core. It was no wonder that the Phoenix Clan had such high hopes for him!

But, even if Mu Chen was really defeated, he could always escape with Nine Nether, and as long as Nine Nether’s bloodline could be preserved, it would be worth giving up the blood essence. After all, the Quasi-Holy Blood Essence was indeed attractive, but once the Undying Bird bloodline was lost, it would not make much sense to acquire it anymore.

…

Rumble!

Deep in the green sea, Huang Xuanzhi crossed his arms in front of his chest as he rose slowly. His golden phoenix wings fanned out, and with every flutter, they caused the waves to roll turbulently.

An indescribable and overbearing pressure emanated from his body, spanning out for thousands of miles. Under this pressure, even Nine Nether could not move an inch.

Seeing this, Mu Chen waved his sleeve, causing a spiritual energy to shroud Nine Nether and push her out of the path of Huang Xuanzhi’s pressure. A cold glint then flashed in his dark eyes, and as Mu Chen’s robes billowed out, a spiritual light condensed on his body.

His flesh and blood instantly turned into a shimmering spiritual body, which looked like it had been cast from an indestructible gem! Although Mu Chen had defeated an elder at the initial stage of the God Grade in the Budur Ancient Clan, Huang Xuanzhi’s similar rank was obviously different from that elder.

Just as Mu Chen could surpass an enemy of a higher rank, Huang Xuanzhi could do the same. Although the feats of both men were remarkable, today, only one of them would have the last laugh.

As Huang Xuanzhi opened his eyes, a golden light surged within them. The next moment, he stretched out his finger and pointed…

Whoosh!

The pair of golden phoenix wings behind his back suddenly burst out with countless beams of golden light. Every beam of golden light then transformed into golden feathers, which had a sharp aura that was strong enough to penetrate the space.

The golden feathers then formed a torrential rain, and the sea water ahead was scattered into a fog.

Mu Chen remained motionless in the face of the golden rainstorm. Then, he clasped his hands together, causing the vast spiritual power to sweep out and form a massive Spiritual Energy light wheel.

The high-speed rotation of the light wheel acted like a shield, resisting the golden torrential rain as much as possible.

Jingle!

The crisp sound spread across the green sea floor. Every collision produced a deep explosion, while cracks emerged in the surrounding space.

As he looked upon this scene, Huang Xuanzhi smiled calmly and said, “Your spiritual energy is indeed more condensed than that of most people in the later stage of the Spiritual Grade. But, unfortunately, it’s still weaker than a God Grade’s.”

Although the two of them were in a stalemate, Huang Xuanzhi’s eyes were sharp, and it was evident to him at a glance that the light wheel had been weakened in that violent collision.

At that moment, the golden torrential rain suddenly froze. At the same time, countless golden feathers converged together. In a few moments, the gathered feathers transformed into a long, golden feather sword.

As the long sword swung and struck, a crisp clang was heard. It had pierced a hole through the space!

Whir!

The golden feather sword then clashed with the Spiritual Energy light wheel, but this time, the wheel shook and was torn apart. The long sword then turned into a golden light, which was pointed directly at Mu Chen’s forehead!

“The spiritual energy of a God Grade is indeed more abundant and condensed!” Mu Chen exclaimed, while the golden light rapidly approached him.

He then sighed and conjured up some seals. In his body, the Holy Pagoda vibrated, and as its mighty spiritual power roared out, it started to constantly pour into him.

Thereafter, a steam of crystal spiritual energy also rushed into Mu Chen’s body. Mu Chen’s dark eyes immediately surged with the crystal light, and the spiritual pressure that burst out of his body rose abruptly.

As he opened his mouth, a crystal torrent howled out. It then transformed into a long sword, which had been created by the Crystal Spiritual Energy. The long sword then collided violently with the golden feather sword.

Clang!

As the two collided, the spiritual shock caused the space to collapse. In the next moment, both of the long swords erupted into spots of light.

“Did his spiritual energy suddenly become stronger?” Huang Xuanzhi wondered aloud.

As he looked at the scene in astonishment, Huang Xuanzhi glanced at the crystal light that was on the surface of Mu Chen’s body. His gaze grew solemn, as Mu Chen’s spiritual energy had clearly raised at least one step in terms of strength and refinement.

“It is rumored that the Pagoda of the Budur Ancient Clan is capable of increasing one’s spiritual energy. But, the increase was much stronger!” Huang Xuanzhi’s gaze flickered as the realisation dawned on him.

But, not only was he not afraid, he smiled and remarked, “This is fun!”

He then opened his mouth, took a deep breath, then blew it out abruptly. Along with his breath, golden flames also burst out of his mouth as he exhaled! As soon as the flames appeared, they engulfed and evaporated the nearby sea water.

“Haha! Have a taste of my golden phoenix flames!”

As the golden flames roared out, they turned into a huge fire phoenix, which immediately turned and charged at Mu Chen! That terrible scorching temperature caused the space to distort, and if an ordinary Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereign was hit by those flames, he would be burned into nothing in an instant!

“Okay, but only if you try my Spirit Devouring Purple Flames too!” Mu Chen yelled back.

He forced himself to remain composed, and as he clasped his hands together, purple flames ignited. Immediately thereafter, the flames turned into a purple flame dragon, which roared out and clashed brutally with the fire phoenix!

As the fire phoenix and the purple dragon collided, violent shockwaves erupted. At the same time, the sea water within a radius of a thousand miles completely evaporated.

As the fog rose, the purple and gold flames began to dissipate slowly. Huang Xuanzhi looked grave. After all, Kong Ling’er had been utterly wrecked by his golden phoenix flames previously, but Mu Chen had unexpectedly been unphased by them!

“This guy is not to be underestimated!” Huang Xuanzhi murmured.

As a golden light flickered in Huang Xuanzhi’s eyes, he stared coldly at Mu Chen. In the next moment, his wings trembled before transforming into numerous afterimages that burst out. At the same time, golden flames were burning on his palms.

Mu Chen sneered as his purple flames rose up and shrouded his body. He then charged out and transformed into a stream of purple light before clashing head-on with Huang Xuanzhi!

Crash!

In the bottom of the sea, the two figures were constantly intertwined, while shockwaves burst out from each of their collisions. This disruption created huge waves at the bottom of the sea as destructive ripples spread out.

Kong Ling’er, Lin Cang, and Xiao Tian were all pale as they retreated hurriedly. They looked at the two figures in horror, as the pair was entangled in a fierce struggle. They could see that both men had pushed their combat powers to the extreme.

What shocked them the most was seeing that, in the face of Huang Xuanzhi’s full power, Mu Chen did not back down at all! Instead, he charged at him! What’s more… He wasn’t losing!

“Mu Chen is so fierce! I didn’t think that he would really be able to compete with Huang Xuanzhi,” Lin Cang exclaimed incredulously.

Although he knew that Mu Chen’s fighting power far exceeded his rank, he never thought that Mu Chen could really be a worthy opponent for Huang Xuanzhi.

Xiao Tian also nodded in agreement. As for Kong Ling’er, she bit her red lips and shook her head, then said, “It’s not that easy to deal with Huang Xuanzhi. He is only testing Mu Chen right now. Once he decides to reveal his trump cards, Huang Xuanzhi will be absolutely terrifying!”

At this point, Kong Ling’er was incredibly fearful, as she had already seen with her own eyes just how fierce Huang Xuanzhi was once he unleashed his full power. Therefore, in Kong Ling’er’s view, the current struggle was only temporary, and once Huang Xuanzhi lost his playful mentality, Mu Chen would be easily defeated.

Boom!

As Kong Ling’er pondered this, a thunder-like rumble was heard in the distance. The vast spiritual power raged on as the two terrifying figures flew several thousand feet backwards.

“Hahaha, this is great!” Huang Xuanzhi laughed heartily, while his golden eyes flashed with a chilling glint.

He looked at Mu Chen and said with a cold tone, “Mu Chen, you have really surprised me. If you were also at an initial stage of God Grade, I would not be able to do anything to you. But, unfortunately, there is no absolute fairness in this world, and at this time, I will be the one to have the last laugh!”

As Huang Xuanzhi’s laughter rang out, an endless golden light surged behind him and the huge wings of a golden phoenix silhouette fanned out slowly. At the same time, an oppressive pressure spread out and permeated the entire area, causing even the heavens and earth to tremble.

The power of a true Phoenix was about to be unleashed!
