The Great Ruler

When the sphere soared into the sky and streaked across the horizon, it flew towards Maha Tian and the Mighty Maha Body beneath him.

Although that sphere didn’t look powerful, Maha Tian could feel a bone-piercing cold coming from it, along with a dense fear and uneasiness in his heart.

“You actually managed to cultivate the Primordial Immortal True Seal Sphere?!” Maha Tian’s face was pale. As protectors of the Primordial Immortal Body, they naturally understood its Sovereign Abilities, and the Primordial Immortal True Seal Sphere was one of them.

It was rumored that the Primordial Immortal Body could use the power of Immortal Origin and form it into a sphere. Anyone trapped in it would experience a rushing flow of time and even a Saint Heavenly Sovereign would have a hard time breaking free. They could only submit to the rustling of time and gradually turn into ashes.

Back then, the Immortal Emperor made use of this Sovereign Ability to slaughter god-knows how many Sky Monarchs.

In terms of might, the Primordial Immortal True Seal Sphere wasn’t any weaker than any of the 36 Peerless Divine Abilities.

It was just that using it required a significant amount of Immortal Origin, and Mu Chen had only just obtained the Primordial Immortal Body. So how did he have so much Immortal Origin to support it?

Despite the thoughts going through his mind, Maha Tian’s face grew unsightly and he did not dare to slack.

Stomping his foot, the Mighty Maha Body turned into a flash and retreated. In the blink of an eye, it was a few myriad miles away. Evidently, he intended to flee and avoid this attack.

But just when he appeared a few myriad miles away, there was a commotion coming from the space above him before the sphere appeared.

Maha Tian’s face grew unsightly as he commanded the Mighty Maha Body to retreat another myriad miles away.

However, his attempts were futile. Regardless of his speed, the sphere seemed to have locked onto his soul and would follow him...

A dozen breaths later, Maha Tian appeared over the Primordial Immortal City with a grim expression.

“What’s wrong? You’re not running anymore?” Mu Chen looked at Maha Tian.

“Hmph, did you really think that I was afraid of your Primordial Immortal Body’s Sovereign Ability?!” Maha Tian was enraged. He was the Patriarch of the Ancient Maha Clan, but he was suffering in the hands of a brat. That was simply a humiliation to him.

Taking a deep breath, he formed seals and turned into countless afterimages.

At the same time, the Mighty Maha Body beneath him gushed a black and white mist from its head that swiftly formed into a huge umbrella above Maha Tian’s head.

“Great Law Maha Umbrella!” Along with Maha Tian’s voice, the enormous umbrella slowly revolved, permeating an endless profundity; as if standing beneath the umbrella could keep him safe, even if the heavens and earth were torn apart.

When the sphere descended, it reflected a radiance on the umbrella before they contacted and violently corroded. Under the collision of the two, space constantly collapsed...

But although the black and white Spiritual Energy was profound, it was lacking when compared to the Immortal Origin. Thus, the black and white radiance was gradually being corroded under the confrontation.

Watching this scene, Mu Chen’s hands changed. “Primordial Immortal True Seal Sphere - Seal of the Primordial!”

The sphere started to extend and enveloped the umbrella, Maha Tian, and the Mighty Maha Body.

Encased by the Primordial Immortal True Seal Sphere, Maha Tian’s face had turned entirely pale.

Within the sphere, splashes of water resounded, as if long rivers of time have appeared and continuously rustled over. Every single rustle would cause the umbrella to shrink in size, as if it couldn’t withstand the corrosion of time.

Not only did the Primordial Immortal Body possess immortality, it also possessed the opposite of it; the power of corrosion. Thus, the Primordial Immortal Body could use the corrosion of time to turn any obstruction into ashes.

In ancient times, many Sky Monarchs have been caught in the Primordial Immortal True Seal Sphere and were turned into ashes through the corrosion of time.

Standing on the Mighty Maha Body, Maha Tian’s countenance was pale as he looked at the umbrella as it was gradually weakening. Stomping his feet, the Mighty Maha Body issued a roar and a black and white aura formed into a sword that struck towards the sphere.

But when the sword touched the sphere, it was swiftly corroded and disappeared. The remnant force only managed to cause the sphere to ripple.

“Damn it!” Maha Tian gnashed his teeth. He finally felt the toughness of the sphere. It was no wonder why this move managed to kill so many Sky Monarchs in ancient times. By using the corrosive of time, it turned everything into ashes.

With a grim gaze, Maha Tian did not bother making any more attempts to destroy the sphere. The Mighty Maha Body suddenly exploded with a brilliant black and white radiance that poured into the umbrella. With the support of this power, the black and white umbrella’s radiance returned and protected Maha Tian and the Mighty Maha Body.

“Mu Chen, your Primordial Immortal True Seal Sphere is powerful, but did you think that you’re the Immortal Emperor himself?! You’re overestimating yourself if you think that you can kill me with this!” Maha Tian bellowed.

What he said wasn’t false. Although it would pose great trouble to break free, the Primordial Immortal True Spirit Seal also couldn’t kill him.

Mu Chen narrowed his eyes and smiled. However, he did not respond. He knew that it’s impossible to kill Maha Tian with the Primordial Immortal True Spirit Sphere, but he had already achieved his objective to trap the latter.

When everyone saw this scene, astonishment swept on their faces as they look at Mu Chen with revere in their eyes.

Half a year ago, the distance between Maha Tian and Mu Chen was akin to the gap between the heavens and earth. But half a year later, he was now able to fight on the same level as Maha Tian and has even trapped the latter.

With such capability, he could be ranked amongst the top in the Great Thousand World.

The Elders of the Ancient Maha Clan were dark, especially Maha You. He gnashed his teeth to the point that they nearly broke. Evidently, he couldn’t accept the fact that his brother couldn’t do anything to Mu Chen.

“Blasphemy! Brat, release the Patriarch!” The two Saint Heavenly Sovereigns of the Ancient Maha Clan hollered as they looked at Mu Chen with Spiritual Energy fluctuations around them.

“Haha, calm down. This battle is between Maha Tian and Mu Chen, so why are the two of you interfering?” The Great Underworld Ancestor waved his sleeve and boundless Spiritual Energy gathered and obstructed the two Saint Heavenly Sovereigns.

“Today’s matter is due to the lack of integrity by your Ancient Maha Clan, so why are you biting on it?” The Great Underworld Ancestor looked at Maha Tian, who was trapped in the sphere. “Why not let this old man be the middle-man? Everyone takes a step back, and I’ll have Mu Chen stop. Your Ancient Maha Clan will also give up on the Primordial Immortal Body. How about it?”

The Ancient Maha Clan’s foundation ran deep, and if this matter blew up, a war would be unimaginable.

Maha Tian’s gaze was cold as he swept a glance at the Great Underworld Ancestor. “You’re noisy. Your Ancient Spirit Clan’s ancestor took the opportunity and obtained the Great Spirit Sage Body, it’s the only reason why there’s the Ancient Spirit Clan today. My Ancient Maha Clan fought our way to this step, and with the Primordial Immortal Body, why would my Ancient Maha Clan stop at this level?!

“Back then, the Primordial Immortal Body was snatched away from my Ancient Maha Clan’s ancestor by the Immortal Emperor. So how can my Ancient Maha Clan give up this opportunity?

“Today, no one is allowed to take the Primordial Immortal Body from my Ancient Maha Clan!” Towards the end, Maha Tian’s gaze was sinister as he roared.

He no longer bothered about the Great Underworld Ancestor as he eerily stared at Mu Chen. “Brat, did you think that my Ancient Maha Clan doesn’t have any foundation?!

“You’re still not qualified to act with such impudence in the territory of my Ancient Maha Clan!” Maha Tian coldly laughed with a flash of decisiveness in his eyes. He spat out a mouthful of blood essence and it changed as he made his seals before turning into a crimson rune.

When the crimson rune soared into the sky, it disappeared into the depths of this continent.

When the crimson rune disappeared, everyone could sense the ground trembling before a black and white radiance soared into the sky from the depths of the Ancient Maha Clan’s holy ground.

That pillar linked the heavens and earth, before everyone could see the appearance of a black and white gourd.

When the gourd appeared, the entire region was colored in black and white, as if it was the intersection of Yin and Yang.

A terrifying pressure was also permeated from the gourd.

When Qing Yanjing, Futu Xuan, and Great Underworld Ancestor saw the gourd, their countenances changed as they exclaimed, “The Yin-Yang Maha Gourd?! Maha Tian, are you insane? You’ve even resorted to summoning the Saint Artifact of your clan?!”

Ancient Clans generally had a Saint Artifact, like the Ancient Buddha Clan’s Ancestral Pagoda. It served to protect the clan, and it was extremely important. Thus, it was generally not used unless the clan was facing a life-or-death disaster.

Back then, Maha Tian was defeated by the Flame Emperor, and he was forced to use a Saint Artifact to force the Flame Emperor to back off.

The Saint Artifact he used back then was this black and white jade gourd.

No one expected that when facing Mu Chen, Maha Tian would, once again, be forced to use it.

Evidently, Maha Tian has already prepared to be unscrupulous to obtain the Primordial Immortal Body!

Now, it was Mu Chen who was in danger.
