At the mountain behind the Mu Estate.

Mu Chen quietly sat cross-legged on the peak of a mountain, and vast spiritual light lingered around him like a stretch of sea. A huge, purple-golden shadow stood tall behind him, and as it breathed, the spiritual energy in the area entered its nose, letting out a thunderous sound. The shadow looked majestic. Mu Chen had been cultivating in such a manner for one full day before he paused to take a rest. When the sun rose, he slowly opened his eyes. Vast spiritual light burst out from his dark eyes and caused the area to crack.

The Immortal Golden Body behind him shook slightly before it dissipated. As Mu Chen sensed the Immortal Golden Body dissipating, light flickered in his eyes. He could indistinctly feel the Immortal Golden Body gradually reaching the Completion Realm as he had brought its power up almost to its peak. As the power of the Immortal Golden Body was about to reach its peak, if Mu Chen wanted to further enhance it, he would have to work on his own strength first.

“Your Immortal Golden Body is perfect.” Suddenly, a voice was heard behind Mu Chen, and he turned around. Qing Yanjing had appeared out of nowhere, and she was looking at Mu Chen’s Immortal Golden Body with great interest.

Mu Chen nodded. In terms of the Immortal Golden Body, he was almost on par with the Heavenly Emperor.

“Judging from the power of your Immortal Golden Body, you are now qualified to vie with the top powers for the Primordial Immortal Body,” Qing Yanjing said with a smile.

Mu Chen became excited when he heard his mother mention the Primordial Immortal Body. Obtaining it was his ultimate goal. When he first started to cultivate the Great Solar Undying Body, he had been looking forward to seeing the final state of the Primordial Undying Body.

“However, the Primordial Immortal Body is currently taken care of by the Maha Ancient Clan. It will not be easy to get my hands on it,” Mu Chen said with a sigh.

“Back then, the Immortal Emperor instructed the Maha Ancient Clan to take care of the Primordial Immortal Body. They are the keepers, not the owners. According to the rules that have been laid down by the Immortal Emperor, every few years, the Maha Ancient Clan has to call for an Aeon Congress, and those who have cultivated the Immortal Golden Body are allowed to take part in it. The Primordial Immortal Body will then select its master.

“However, the current Maha Ancient Clan is starting to behave as though the Primordial Immortal Body belongs to them. They have been trying to stop the other cultivators of the Immortal Golden Body from possessing it. They want their own clan members to be accepted by the Primordial Immortal Body, but so far, they have not been successful.” Qing Yanjing sneered as she came to this point.

“They have been holding on to the Primordial Immortal Body for ages, and they do not want to hand it over to someone outside their clan.” Mu Chen smiled and was not surprised. After all, he was well aware that the Primordial Immortal Body was much sought after by a lot of people. Even the Maha Ancient Clan, which had been around for ages, could not resist the desire to own it. After all, the Primordial Immortal Body was one of the Primitive Celestial Bodies, and it had helped the Immortal Emperor become the most powerful person during the Primordial Age.

“However, no matter how unwilling they are to part with it, when they hold the Aeon Congress, I will definitely go to the Maha Ancient Clan. Since the Immortal Emperor has allowed the Primordial Immortal Body to choose its owner, I will have to give it a try,” Mu Chen said as his eyes glittered.

From the time he started cultivating the Great Solar Undying Body until the Completion Stage of the Immortal Golden Body, Mu Chen had gone through a lot of hardships. His ultimate goal was to possess the Primordial Immortal Body. Thus, regardless of the Maha Ancient Clan’s attitude, he would go out of his way to fight for it.

In the past, the Heavenly Emperor had told Mu Chen that if he was not powerful enough, he must not head for the Maha Ancient Clan to vie for the Primordial Immortal Body. However, Mu Chen was a different person now.

“Since you are so ambitious, I will definitely give you my support. Just go ahead and do it, my son. If the Primordial Immortal Body has chosen you, and the Maha Ancient Clan dares to create trouble and makes things difficult for you, I will not let them off,” Qing Yanjing said in a domineering tone as she stroked Mu Chen’s hair.

When Mu Chen heard it, he nodded and said with a smile, “Thank you, mother.” As he said that, something caught his attention. He clenched his fist, and a jade talisman appeared. Spiritual light glittered on the jade talisman, and it cracked open. Spiritual light rose up and turned into words before him.

Mu Chen looked at it, frowned, and suddenly turned pale. Nine Nether is in trouble. Come back to Tianluo quickly.

When Mu Chen saw those words, he was shocked and stood up abruptly. Mandela had sent him the message. He had told her before that if there was any emergency, she should break the jade talisman, and he would be able to sense it. Apparently, Nine Nether must have encountered a serious problem. Otherwise, Mandela would not have sent this message to him.

What has happened to Nine Nether? Light flickered fiercely in Mu Chen’s eyes. Nine Nether was special to him. They were not a couple, but she was like family to him. In the past, when Mu Chen met Nine Nether in the Northern Spiritual Realm, it was the bloodline bond they shared that brought them together. Nine Nether was the one who had helped Mu Chen come so far. When Mu Chen was still unable to fend for himself, Nine Nether was the one who had been protecting him. He was grateful to her and was full of respect for her. Thus, when Mu Chen saw the message, he reacted strongly to it.

“What has happened?” Qing Yanjing asked. When she saw Mu Chen’s reaction, she was shocked. Qing Yanjing knew Mu Chen to be a composed person, and he was not easily affected by external matters. His reaction indicated that it must be something serious.

“Mother, is the Transfer Spiritual Array to Tianluo Continent ready?” Mu Chen asked Qing Yanjing grimly as he stretched out his hand to wipe away the spiritual light text.

Qing Yanjing thought for a while and replied, “Under normal circumstances, I would need another five days, but since you need to use it urgently, I will set it up in two days.”

Generally speaking, if anyone asked a Divine Ancestral Master like Qing Yanjing for help setting up a spiritual array, even the supreme powers would not have the audacity to rush her into producing the work. However, since it was her son who needed to use it, Qing Yanjing would do her best to rush.

“Mother, I will have to trouble you then,” Mu Chen said gratefully.

Qing Yanjing smiled gently and said, “Why are you standing on ceremony with your mother?” After pausing for a while, she looked at Mu Chen and asked, “What has happened? Do you need my help?”

“A very important friend of mine is in trouble, but I have no idea what has happened. I will have to go back to Tianluo Continent first, and I believe that I should be able to settle it. I shall not get in your way and let you and father have more time together,” Mu Chen said with a smile.

Qing Yanjing said disapprovingly, “After you made your father the Lord of Hundred Spirit Continent, he has become extremely busy.” However, she did not press on with the matter. She smiled at Mu Chen and said, “Since you are confident about handling the matter, I shall not interfere. Now that the supreme powers in the Great Thousand World know that you are my son, even if you get into a conflict with them, they will think twice before they do anything to you. At the very least, the Divine Heavenly Sovereigns will not trouble you.”

Mu Chen nodded. Although he had no intention of using his mother to boss others around, he could not change their relationship. Meanwhile, he could use his family background to frighten those opponents whom he was still unable to deal with. Although Mu Chen was confident, he was not foolish.

Two days later at the mountain behind the Mu Estate.

A huge spiritual array stood tall in the large valley. Horrifying spatial fluctuations emanated from the spiritual array, causing the surrounding space to twist continually. Myriad spiritual seals loomed above the spiritual array, revealing the complexity of the structure. Even Mu Chen did not have the capability to set up such a powerful spiritual array at the moment.

“You are an amazing Divine Ancestral Master!” Mu Chen exclaimed as he stood outside the spiritual array and looked at the scale of it.

Qing Yanjing, Ling Xi, and Long Xiang stood behind him, and even Mu Feng, who had his hands full, had made time to send him off. As for Tang Qian’Er, she had already left for the Million Phoenix Spiritual Academy some time ago.

“Son, be careful.” Mu Feng knew that Mu Chen had some emergency matters to attend to, and he was worried for him. After all, there were countless masters in the Great Thousand World, unlike the Hundred Spirit Continent.

“Father, I am no longer the greenhorn leaving Northern Spiritual Realm.” Mu Chen smiled helplessly. Back then, when he was about to leave the Northern Spiritual Realm, Mu Feng had said the same thing to him.

“When everything here has been settled, your father and I will visit the Mu Estate that you have set up on Tianluo Continent,” Qing Yanjing said with a smile.

“I will be waiting for you then.” Mu Chen smiled. He then took a deep breath and did not say another word. He nodded at Qing Yanjing, Mu Feng, Ling Xi, and Long Xiang and stepped into the spiritual array.

He waved his sleeve, and majestic spiritual energy entered the Transfer Spiritual Array. Suddenly, vast spatial fluctuations burst out and caused the area to twist. A space passageway then appeared behind him.

“Father, mother, I am leaving.” Mu Chen waved at them and turned around. His dark eyes suddenly became sharp. He looked at the space passageway and stepped in. At the same time, he clenched his fists.

Nine Nether, nothing bad must happen to you. You have been protecting me all these years. This time around, let me protect you.

Myriad rays of light burst out from the huge Transfer Spiritual Array as Mu Chen disappeared into the light!
