Boom! Boom!

Ling Zhanzi’s low growl reverberated in the air like thunder. Waves of immense spiritual energy surged like a flood, flowing out from his body and vibrating the space around them.

Ling Zhanzi’s eyes were shimmering with an energetic expression, having lost the weakness that they carried in them before. Apparently, through the Battle Ritual, he had restored himself to peak condition. The previously exhausted spiritual energy had filled his body once again.

Standing upon the shoulder of the War Emperor Celestial Body, he stared at Mu Chen disdainfully. At the last moment, he had been able to come back to the game. This was because now, in his eyes, Mu Chen was no longer a threat.

Around the White Jade Stadium, countless powerful individuals shook their heads. Who could have expected that Zhan Lingzi would have a trick up his sleeve! With this move, the tides of this battle would surely change!

“Zhan Lingzi is too vicious. I can’t believe that he would pay such a price for the slot,” a powerful individual commented.

“This price is nothing compared to becoming a Child of the Continent and inheriting the cultivating baptism of the Western Kingdom Continent’s power! His chances of breaking through into the Heaven Sovereign realm would increase significantly!”

“But, this method is rather unfair. Mu Chen already has the handicap of battling an Upper Earthly Sovereign as a Lower Earthly Sovereign, and the fact that Zhan Lingzi would still use such an underhanded method…” another spectator commented. Some people, including him, were indignant for Mu Chen’s situation, as his shocking performance had evidently won many hearts.

“The world is cruel, and there is no absolute fairness. But, Mu Chen is really amazing to even be able to have reached this point. With his talent and capabilities, he will surely have more opportunities in the future,” someone else said.

Countless whispers spread throughout the stadium, while countless gazes were filled with pity. Mu Chen was supposed to overthrow Ling Zhanzi, the overlord of Upper Earthly Sovereigns, but sadly, he was just a step or two beyond his limits.

“It seems like you’ve run out of luck.” Ling Jianzi looked at the restored Ling Zhanzi, revealing a sardonic smile at Su Mu.

Su Mu’s face was overcast with gloom. Mu Chen had already surprised them by reaching this stage. Moreover, no one had predicted that Ling Zhanzi would use such an underhanded method!

“Even if we could not snatch away your slots, at least we were able to stomp down your morale! Hmph, even the leader of the Four Holy Children, the disciple of the Western Kingdom War Emperor, has been humbled because of a Lower Earthly Sovereign. Let’s see if you still dare to flaunt this in the future,” Su Mu retorted coldly, unwilling to back down.

Ling Jianzi’s eyes dulled, as he was apparently slightly frustrated. He knew that what Su Mu had just said was true. After the battle today, though Ling Zhanzi was victorious against Mu Chen, he would not get much more fame. In fact, Mu Chen might become more famous from this incident instead, as achieving this with only the capabilities of a Lower Earthly Sovereign was already shocking.

“A win is a win, and no matter what anyone says, the result is final,” Ling Jianzi replied coldly.

As the two were arguing, Mu Chen could not help but click his tongue in the battlefield, while looking at the terrible spiritual energy fluctuation that was being emitted by Ling Zhanzi. He was truly a hard nut to crack!

To resist this fellow, Mu Chen had activated all of his trump cards to their maximum potential. However, he still couldn’t take any advantage. To have become the leader of the Four Holy Children, Ling Zhanzi was indeed exceptional.

“You are truly a disciple of a Heavenly Sovereign.” Mu Chen sighed.

“Thank you for your praise, but even so, I still must send you out of this battlefield,” Ling Zhanzi replied heartlessly. He was now taking Mu Chen seriously.

BOOM!

Ling Zhanzi, after suffering substantial losses, had learned his lesson. Clearly, he did not want to allow any more time for Mu Chen to recover or prepare for battle. So, with a stomp of his feet, he sent a majestic spiritual energy bursting forth, while his body shot out like a bolt of lightning. Everyone could see that Ling Zhanzi planned to end this battle now!

His figured slashed through the air like the wind, and his immense spiritual energy filled the heavens and the earth. With just a breath, Ling Zhanzi’s figure appeared before Mu Chen, who was sitting cross-legged upon the Immortal Golden Body’s shoulder.

At that time, Mu Chen’s spiritual energy was completely spent and the Immortal Golden Body was dull and lightless, unable to be invoked. So, when Ling Zhanzi appeared, he was not attacked.

“Surrender the battle seal!” Ling Zhanzi let out a chilling growl, then suddenly sent out a slap. The wind from his palm carried with it the rumble of thunder, shattering the air and flying straight at Mu Chen’s chest.

Whistle…

Countless eyes watched as the wind from his palm neared Mu Chen. The onlookers silently sighed, as they expected Mu Chen to be defeated completely.

The fierce wind came toward Mu Chen directly. As he saw it approaching, Mu Chen’s pupils enlarged quickly. However, facing the attack that could injure him severely, Mu Chen did not show any fear. Instead, he smiled faintly.

Seeing his smile, Ling Zhanzi eyes froze for a moment and uneasiness rose in his heart. But, he was ultimately a cruel and decisive person, so he immediately channeled his spiritual energy, making the wind stronger. Whether Mu Chen was planning a trick or not, it seemed like he had no way of countering this close-range spiritual energy oppression.

Thunk!

The air vibrated, and in just the flicker of an eye, Ling Zhanzi’s attack appeared before Mu Chen. However, before he could slam it away forcefully, another slender palm stretched out from nowhere, clashing into Ling Zhanzi’s fierce palm forcibly.

Boom!

As an immense spiritual energy rushed out in every direction, Ling Zhanzi was shaken to see that his palm had been blocked. Before he could realize what had happened, a kick that was wrapped in powerful spiritual energy and swift afterimages slammed onto his chest fiercely.

Bang!

The shadow of the kick flashed past him, blasting through the air. Ling Zhanzi could not react in time and was sent flying away. His impact created a huge crater on the earth.

As this change of events had happened in a flash, the countless people only realized what had happened when Ling Zhanzi’s body flew away awkwardly. Their faces were filled with fear, as many of them gasped and exclaimed in shock…

“What happened?”

“Why would Mu Chen still have such a powerful spiritual energy?”

An uproar broke out, while gazes of disbelief were focused at Mu Chen. When they saw him, the loud noise around the stadium died down immediately.

Everyone’s jaws were agape and their faces painted with fear. It was as if they had just seen a ghost.

They saw two figures standing beside Mu Chen, who was still sitting cross-legged on the shoulder of the Immortal Golden Body. One of the figures was dressed in black robes, while the other one was wearing white robes. Both of them radiated intensely powerful and immense spiritual energy fluctuations.

Of course, the most shocking things about them weren’t the spiritual energy fluctuations they emitted. Instead, the crazy thing was that the two who had just appeared looked exactly the same as Mu Chen!

“What’s happening?”

“Why do those two look the same as Mu Chen? Are they triplets?”

“Nonsense! Those are his spiritual energy clones!”

“How is this possible? He is just a Lower Earthly Sovereign, so how could he manage to manifest two spiritual energy clones of his same level?”

An overwhelming uproar exploded in the crowd, as countless people were commenting on the scene, disbelief written all over their faces. They were clearly dumbfounded by such a sudden turn of events. They thought that Ling Zhanzi would finish off the fight, but at the last moment, such an unexpected thing had happened!

Liu Xingcheng was also horrified while watching this. He could not believe that Mu Chen was a triplet, so he thought they must be his spiritual energy clones. But, he could not comprehend why his clones were so powerful! Also, he was amazed at how the spiritual energy clones could look so real, as if they were the actual person!

While the uproar was raging on, back on the Myriad Stone Steps, the Western Kingdom War Emperor also revealed his surprise. He leaped up and looked at the two figures who looked exactly like Mu Chen.

Others might not have noticed it, but he, who was a Heavenly Sovereign, could tell that the two were not mere clones, but were real people! Furthermore, the three Mu Chen’s exuded the same aura! Even their spiritual energy fluctuations were completely identical.

Moreover, only a Heavenly Sovereign could manifest such realistic clones, and Mu Chen was only a mere Lower Earthly Sovereign! Even then, the capabilities of a Heavenly Sovereign’s clone would be far below the actual body’s, and Mu Chen’s clones were clearly as powerful as him! Hence, even a Heavenly Sovereign could not do this with mere clones.

As the Flame Emperor looked up to see Mu Chen on the screen, he clicked his tongue and said to himself, He really did successfully cultivate it…After billions of years, the Qi Into Trinity has finally resurfaced.

He knew that Mu Chen had obtained the inheritance of the Heavenly Emperor and the Qi Into Trinity. Such an exceptional power was not a skill that just anyone could practice. But, it was clear that Mu Chen had been successful in doing so.

After staring at the three figures on the screen, he looked toward the Western Kingdom War Emperor. He laughed lightly, and his face could not help but twitch.
