The Great Ruler (Web Novel)
chapter-1331

As Mu Chen's voice resounded in the battlefield, the people were all shocked when they heard it. Apparently, they had not expected that the one who took the lead to attack Shi Tian You would be an Upper Earthly Sovereign…

"This guy is tired of living!" Mo Xin looked gravely at Mu Chen.

As he had exchanged blows with the Demon Emperor Corpse earlier, he had seen its power. Even if he gave his best and used all of his trump cards, he knew that he would not be able to defeat the Demon Emperor Corpse. After all, the Demon Emperor Corpse was simply too powerful.

Moreover, if Mo Xin was unable to defeat the Demon Emperor Corpse, Mu Chen, who was only an Upper Earthly Sovereign, of course would be unable to do so. Thinking of these things, he felt that Mu Chen was digging his own grave.

Xuan Luo, who was far off in the distance, squinted his eyes and curled up his lips to mock Mu Chen. He felt that Mu Chen thought too highly of himself.

"Sister Qing Shuang, do you think he is able to do it?" Qing Ling asked softly as she tugged at Qing Shuang's sleeve.

Although they had seen Mu Chen's power and she was convinced that he was on par with Mo Xin and Xuan Luo, the opponent that Mu Chen was currently dealing with was simply too powerful. Plus, Mo Xin, who was so powerful, had even been sent flying by a punch from the Demon Emperor Corpse. Moreover, Shi Tian You had not even displayed his power yet!

Qing Shuang curled up her lips and was feeling doubtful. However, at such a moment, they could only trust that Mu Chen was capable. After all, there was no other way out!

"He must be confident, since he has chosen this course of action," Qing Shuang said. From what she understood about Mu Chen, he was a sensible person who would not act rashly.

Qing Ling nodded, choosing to think likewise in an attempt to console herself. Although many people were looking doubtfully at Mu Chen, he ignored them. He simply fixed his gaze on Shi Tian You, his eyes sharp like an eagle's.

"So, it is you again…" Shi Tian You was shocked when he saw Mu Chen.

He then smiled and said in a hoarse voice, "You are very bold. How dare you appear before me again?"

He pointed at the Demon Emperor Corpse that was in front of him, then said with a smile, "Did you not notice its power? Since I refined it, its power is now much greater than it was before."

When Mu Chen heard this, he smiled and said, "So what if it is more powerful now? It is, after all, only a Demon Emperor Corpse. It is not a real Demon Emperor!"

"Are you not ashamed of yourself for being so boastful?" Shi Tian You asked coldly. He was angered when he saw that Mu Chen did not take the Demon Emperor Corpse seriously.

"You will find out soon enough whether or not I am being boastful." Mu Chen sneered.

As Shi Tian You stared at Mu Chen, an immense killing intent flashed in his eyes.

Swoosh!

At this instant, the Demon Emperor Corpse shot out, its withered palm piercing through the space. It was targeted right at Mu Chen's throat!

The space smashed and the space debris gathered under its claws. The power of it all was simply horrifying.

However, Mu Chen was already prepared for this sudden attack from the Demon Emperor Corpse. When the space smashed, he tapped his toes and turned into afterimages, quickly retreating.

As Mu Chen was moving backward, his finger brushed past a black ring...

Buzz.

Suddenly, a bright spiritual light burst out from the sky. Everyone was shocked when they saw several thousand figures appearing in the sky. These figures were standing on the same spot where Mu Chen had stood previously.

When the several thousand figures appeared, a vast majestic fighting spirit windstorm swirled out and shook the entire area. Mo Xin and Xuan Luo immediately squinted their eyes. Although they were composed, they could not help feeling shocked.

When they felt the vast fighting spirit exuding from the several thousand figures, they lost their cool and Mo Xin shouted, "Fighting spirit? Is this a military army?" Only an elite military army could possess such a strong fighting spirit.

Qing Ling and Qing Shuang widened their eyes when they saw the scene. After a long while, Qing Shuang asked in amazement, "How can he possibly possess such a strong troop?" The fighting spirit that emitted from the troop was so great, even Qing Shuang, who was a Complete Earthly Sovereign, felt threatened by it.

The troop that had just appeared in the sky was the Mystery Dragon Army. Jiang Long was standing at the forefront.

When he saw Mu Chen, he cupped his fist and said respectfully, 'Lord Mu."

"Lord Mu!" The thousands of men from the Mystery Dragon Army shouted in unison, and their shouts were thunderous. The array was so grand, the people were very impressed by it.

Mu Chen nodded at the Mystery Dragon Army. He then raised his chin toward the direction of the Demon Emperor Corpse and said, "Commander Jiang Long, this thing is here again."

Jiang Long turned around and looked at the Demon Emperor Corpse with animosity and sneered. "Lord Mu, your wish is my command. I will tear this broken corpse into pieces."

"You are just a bunch of presumptuous fellows!" When Shi Tian You saw this, he gave a petrifying smile. He then waved his hand and said, "Kill all of them!"

Roar!

The Demon Emperor Corpse roared and lifted its head to the sky. Its demonic aura surged and filled the sky. In the next instant, demonic smoke swirled around the Demon Emperor Corpse as it darted toward the Mystery Dragon Army.

If it was an ordinary troop that was being attacked by the Demon Emperor Corpse, the troop would have lost its morale and become devastated by now. However, when the Mystery Dragon Army was at its peak performance, even the Demon Emperor would be suppressed by it.

"Fight!" Jiang Long shouted, while the several thousand men from the Mystery Dragon Army roared.

In the next instant, the fighting spirit turned into a vast ocean. As the sea raged, even the surrounding space was unable to withstand its power.

Mu Chen immediately gathered the fighting spirit of the Mystery Dragon Army. As he sensed the vast majestic power, he triggered his thought, and a Dragon Palm that was filled with numerous battle runes emerged out of the fighting spirit ocean. It then directed itself at the Demon Emperor Corpse and hit it head-on!

Roar!

The Demon Emperor Corpse roared and did not retreat. On the contrary, it moved forward and hit the Fighting Spirit Dragon Palm with its withered fist.

Boom!

When the two collided together, there was a loud bang. The Demon Emperor Corpse stopped moving, but the Fighting Spirit Dragon Palm was thrown back, while cracks started to form on it.

When Mu Chen saw this, he was stunned.

The power of the Demon Emperor Corpse has indeed become even stronger!

The power of the Demon Emperor Corpse was mighty before this, but after Shi Tian You refined it, it had moved up again by one more level! This one level was enough to make the Demon Emperor Corpse invincible among those who were at the peak.

"Lord Mu, Shi Tian You has used some secret formula to activate some of the powers that were left behind in the Demon Emperor Corpse. As such, we will not be able to subdue it." Jiang Long's voice, which was covered by the spiritual energy, sounded in Mu Chen's ears.

Apparently, he had noticed the sudden increase in the Demon Emperor Corpse's strength. When Mu Chen heard this news, he nodded and replied with a smile, "If we cannot handle it with our current 3,000 men, let's add another 2,000!"

When Jiang Long heard this, he was shocked and said hastily, "But, Lord Mu, given your current strength, you can only control the fighting spirit of 3,000 of our Mystery Dragon Army. If you add more, there may be dire repercussions."

Mu Chen simply smiled, while the black Mu Chen and the white Mu Chen appeared beside him. He could personally only control 3,000 men, but he had cultivated the Qi into Trinity! So, with the help of the black Mu Chen and the white Mu Chen, it would not pose a problem for him to control the fighting spirit of 5,000 men!

As Mu Chen triggered his thoughts and waved his sleeve, a light burst out again from the Mystery Dragon Ring. In the next instant, another 2,000 men appeared in the sky.

When the additional warriors appeared, the people's facial expressions changed again. Even Mo Xin and Xuan Luo turned pale. Both of them were wary of the original 3,000 Mystery Dragon Army, and now, with the additional 2,000 warriors, the fighting spirit was so majestic, Mo Xin and Xuan Luo really were afraid.

Where did this brat get such an elite troop? Mo Xin shouted in his heart, although he appeared calm on the surface. As the Little Lord of the Budur Ancient Clan, he was painfully aware of the power of such an elite troop.

Xuan Luo was baffled. He looked coldly at Mu Chen as his face turned red.

From the beginning, he had looked down on Mu Chen. After all, Xuan Luo was the most outstanding person among the younger generation in the Budur Ancient Clan, and even Mo Xin only barely managed to stay on par with him.

As for Mu Chen, Xuan Luo had always considered him as the perpetrator. He had thought that he could easily capture Mu Chen if he wanted to.

Although he always put on an amicable face, he was proud and looked down on Mu Chen. However, at this moment, he found that he had acted foolishly in doing so.

He had thought that he was powerful, but he was nothing in the eyes of Mu Chen. The power and means that Mu Chen had displayed were not the least inferior to his own!

This disparity caused Xuan Luo to turn gloomy. He stared at Mu Chen with a dark look.

At this instant, he felt deeply threatened by Mu Chen. This feeling was much stronger than what he had felt when faced with Mo Xin!

Boom!

As Mo Xin and Xuan Luo were going through an internal emotional struggle, the fighting spirit of the 5,000 Mystery Dragon Troop gathered. The area darkened and the horrifying fighting spirit exuded a strong oppression that covered the entire area. All of the top powers started to feel afflicted by the oppression.

As Mu Chen stood above the troop, the black Mu Chen and the white Mu Chen were sitting cross-legged nearby among the vast fighting spirit. They had come to help him bear the burden of controlling the fighting spirit. When Mu Chen felt the strong fighting spirit, he gently let out a breath.

This level of fighting spirit was the maximum that he could reach. With it, he could contend with the Demon Emperor Corpse!

Mu Chen stared at Shi Tian You, who had a surprised look on his face. His laughter then resounded in the sky as he asked, "Would you like to try again?"
