The Great Ruler Chapter 606

Golden light glittered within the vast space as spiritual attacks exploded on the enormous golden battle stages.

And on those golden stages, with each flickering of the shadows, an attack of shocking impact occurred.

All eight teams were engaged in fierce fighting.

Only by exerting all of one’s strength could it be possible to stand out among those eight strong teams.

Of all the matches between the eight teams, the most eye-catching were the matches between the captains because everyone knew that for battles under the seven-point system, if the captain lost the battle, the chances for victory would be slim.

The captain’s success or failure could be said to be a team’s most critical point.

Thus, it was no wonder that everyone’s burning attention was on the four central golden battle stages. Even the Chiefs of the Spiritual Academies all nodded while watching in the sky.

As for the battles on the four stages, spiritual force also kept violently clashing. Besides Mu Chen and Liu Qingyun’s duel, the battles between Ji Xuan and Wen Busheng, and Wu Ling and Xue Tianhe were also extremely attention-grabbing.

Regarding Wen Qingxuan’s confrontation with Fang Yun, it was easiest to tell who would win. After all, Fang Yun was probably the weakest of the eight captains. Though he was in possession of an Inferior Divine Artifact, which increased his power tremendously, unfortunately for him, he was facing Wen Qingxuan, who had power comparable to Luo Li’s.

Therefore, in the confrontation between the two, even though Fang Yun had the Dragon-Tiger Cauldron, his power was still suppressed by Wen Qingxuan. Her figure looked like that of a female god of war with her golden spear by her side. Her terrible attacks were like tides sweeping over the Dragon-Tiger Cauldron, constantly forcing it to retreat.

Sooner or later, Wen Qingxuan would find a flaw in Fang Yun’s attacks and then defeat him.

Compared with the situation where Wen Qingxuan soon had gained an upper hand, the other two battle stages appeared to be at somewhat of a stalemate, especially the battle stage where Wu Ling and Xue Tianhe were fighting.

Both held nothing back and lashed out at each other without reservation. The kind of spiritual power fluctuations they used showed that they had apparently passed through the Three Grades of the Spirit Disaster and were only one step away from the true Sovereign-level.

Whenever Xue Tianhe gestured, blood red spiritual force swept out like a blood river and oozed towards Wu Ling.

As for Wu Ling, he held a black stick in his hand, and his body exuded a faint black light. His face originally had delicate features, but now it looked if it were cast in steel. He had obviously trained his body to become extremely sturdy.

Therefore, when he was faced with the gushing river of blood, he just needed a slight sweep with his stick to form a distorted space, and the terrible force that came with it smashed the river of blood into drops of blood all over the sky.

The fight between the two was so furious, they madly attacked each other without the slightest thought of defense. Such a thrilling battle evoked waves of shocked sighs from the audience.

But overall, their battle was deadlocked.

The last eye-catching battle was the one between Ji Xuan and Wen Busheng.

In this battle, the opponents’ fame was unequal. Almost everyone from all the different Spiritual Academies had heard of Ji Xuan, but Wen Busheng was the total opposite. Even his Spiritual Academy, with a majestic name like Invincible Spiritual Academy, had never been heard of by most.

Therefore, when the audience thought Wen Busheng would soon lose to Ji Xuan, reality stunned them. Wen Busheng had actually managed to handle all of Ji Xuan’s attacks.

Moreover, he completely relied on his empty hands to defend against Ji Xuan’s fierce spear.

This scene left many people amazed. They had finally understood why this team from the Invincible Spiritual Academy was in the top eight.

This seemingly ordinary young man was nothing ordinary. He proved that even the smallest Spiritual Academies could eventually birth a genius.

However, although Wen was successful taking all of Ji Xuan’s attacks, only the Chiefs of the Spiritual Academies in the sky could tell that Wen Busheng’s attacks were being gradually suppressed by Ji Xuan.

Whish!

On the battle stage, a spear pierced through the air and on its tip rose violent spiritual power burning like a hot sun, threatening to smash through the void.

The spear went straight for Wen Busheng.

Faced with Ji Xuan’s fierce attacks, Wen Busheng looked much more solemn now. His right palm emitted a white light glowing like jade. Pushing his palm out, he made his attack.

Clink!

The sound of metal clinking could be heard when the spear met with the hand, and a huge shockwave, which was visible to the naked eye, made its way outwards, shattering the ground beneath them.

Ji Xuan’s body shuddered, whereas Wen Busheng took a few steps backwards, each step leaving a deep imprint on the ground.

Whoosh!

Ji Xuan pointed his spear at Wen Busheng. He looked at him and said lightly, “If you are only so capable, then you will end here.”

As he finished his sentence, Ji Xuan’s gaze suddenly became fierce. With his spear against the ground, Ji Xuan put his palms together. Dazzling holy light poured out of him and formed a huge holy sun behind him.

The spiritual force emanated from him like a volcano and was so astonishing, it had almost reached the pinnacle of the Three Grades of the Spirit Disaster.

He seemed to have become stronger than when he fought against Mu Chen.

Wen Busheng was also aware of the dangerous feeling that was radiating from Ji Xuan. He knew that Ji Xuan had no intention of continuing this fight. At that instant, he took a deep breath and slowly extended his right hand.

His right hand was particularly slender and fair, as if it were carved from jade. Dark gold lines seemed to slowly spread out on his palm.

Those golden lines flowed in his palm as if they were blood in his vessels. Within seconds, his right hand turned a dark gold color, and a special coercion filled the air.

The special coercion made Ji Xuan’s eyes narrow for an instant. He fixed his glare on Wen Busheng’s right palm, and a touch of suspicion crossed his face.

“This fluctuation…”

In the sky, the Chiefs of the various Spiritual Academies also looked over in surprise. They immediately blinked and their faces filled with astonishment.

“That little guy who’s from Invincible Spiritual Academy… had transplanted a hand of a Sovereign Master? No wonder his right hand is so strong…”

…

A large green light array floated in the sky. On the light array was a gigantic green shadow. It looked just like a god who had travelled across time and space, and was here to gaze down upon this vast land.

An indescribable threat spread between heaven and earth.

Numerous eyes stared in awe at the green shadow. Its shape was not clear, but everyone could tell how powerful it was from its coercion.

“What’s that?”

“From what Liu Qingyun had said earlier on, that should be the Wind Ancestor of their Wind Spirit Clan…”

“The Ancestor? The one who had created the Wind Spirit Clan according to legend? Has he not passed on yet?”

“Of course that’s not the real body of the Ancestor. Liu Qingyun probably used a mystical method of Wind Spirit Clan combined with his bloodline of the Wind Spirit Clan, and summoned a spiritual shadow. But even so, that’s going to lend him tremendous power.”

“Seems that Liu Qingyun really is planning to give his all. He’s even playing such cards…”

“…”

Whispers spread among the numerous Spiritual Academies. Many people’s voices were quivering, obviously a result of shock from seeing Liu Qingyun. That huge green shadow could be said to be extremely difficult to handle, even for someone who had passed the Three Grades of the Spirit Disaster.

For Liu Qingyun to reach this point in the competition and still not show any sign of fear when faced with Mu Chen, who had won first place in the knockout phase of the competition, he really had his own strengths.

In the audience of ​​the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy, many students had hints of concern in their eyes.

“This Liu Qingyun is indeed very powerful.” Ye Qingling sighed. Certainly, among those who were capable of becoming one of the top eight teams, no one was weak. The elimination round was probably just a warm-up for them. Now was the real time to show their opponents everything they had.

Yu Xi clasped her little hands and asked nervously, “Can Brother Mu Chen do it?”

Ye Qingling gave a wry smile. She was obviously not one who could give any insight on such a level of battle. Now, one could only wait and see if Mu Chen had also kept his most powerful skills unused.

“Although the shadow of the Wind Ancestor summoned by Liu Qingyun is not weak, Mu Chen is not someone so easily dealt with.” Lingxi smiled and reassured them. The Wind Spirit Clan might be strong, but Ling Xi really did not think they were so strong that they could surpass the mysterious clan that Aunt Jing was from. It was a clan so strong, even Aunt Jing, who had passed the Heavenly Completion Stage, had concerns about it. So, just a Wind Spirit Clan was probably nothing in comparison.

Seeing Ling Xi smile, Ye Qingling and the others secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but they still stared at the huge golden platform with concern.

On the stage, Mu Chen also fixed his gaze on the huge green shadow.

“Mu Chen, if you can take this move, I will admit my defeat!” Liu Qingyun glared at Mu Chen icily. He then immediately changed his seal, and the green shadow suddenly stepped out of the light array and pressed down its palm against Mu Chen.

Under the palm, the spiritual force between heaven and earth was so shaken that it all dispersed. Before the palm had even fallen, a huge indentation formed on the battle platform.

Mu Chen’s clothes also clung tightly to his body. He looked at the terrible green shadow and took a deep breath. His face became solemn, and his hands suddenly formed a seal.

Splash!

Accompanied by the changes of the seal, the black and white spiritual force behind him started splashing around and finally gathered together at an astonishing speed.

With the condensation of the black and white spiritual power, all could see a giant black tower about a hundred feet tall was gradually forming.

The black giant tower stood in the air, and on its ancient body were shadows of golden dragons. Deep and ancient dragon screeches could faintly be heard.

When the black giant tower appeared, even the Chief Tai Cang could not help but jump. He clearly remembered that when Mu Chen’s mother showed up, it was the exact black tower she had used to defeat the Yellow Dragon Sovereign.

Had Mu Chen already become so powerful, he was now able to display this formidable technique?

Was this black tower really able to resist the shadow of the ancestor Liu Qingyun had summoned?
