Chapter 698 - Goldpond Curtain Draws

“Mandala?”

Hearing that weird name, Mu Chen couldn’t help being stunned for a brief moment as he lowered his head and glanced at the girl in his embrace with caution. However, the latter still had her eyes shut and did not bother with him. At this moment, he could only bitterly laugh.

Although he wasn’t sure of the origins of this mysterious little girl, there was an undoubted fact. She possessed a fearsome strength that even surpassed the three Emperors of the Great Havenlaw Domain.

Also, she seemed to be a little familiar with the Immortal Page. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have recognised the Great Solar Undying Body that was cultivated by Mu Chen. After all, it was a rare Sovereign Celestial Body that wasn’t amongst the 99 Rankings of Sovereign Celestial Bodies.

As for her, Mu Chen maintained a 120% alertness and fear for her in his heart. But from the current situation, she didn’t seem to be intending on leaving and only wanted to cling onto him. And to this, Mu Chen didn’t dare to oppose in the slightest in case he angered her; in which, she would probably kill him with a wave of her hand.

Mu Chen didn’t want to die not knowing the reason why.

Also, the reason why she clung onto him was clearly due to the Immortal Page in Mu Chen’s body.

“Uhh…”

Mu Chen hugged the girl named Mandala as he helplessly sighed in his heart. Shortly after, he formed seals with a single hand, and the Great Solar Undying Body abruptly soared up, splitting apart the thick golden lake water as he ascended.

Now that he had successfully refined the Daluo Golden Body, there wasn’t any reason for him to stay here. Furthermore, he could sense that it was about time for the Greatlaw Goldpond to be sealed once again.

…

Outside the Goldpond Peak

In just a few day’s time, the atmosphere here was boiling, and the origin of it was naturally the dazzling golden talisman that looked like a blazing golden sun.

This was the first time in all these years that there was such an intense light in the opening of the Greatlaw Goldpond.

Also, everyone understood that this meant that someone was refining the Daluo Golden Body. Also, from the looks of it, he had a certain chance of success.

Just this point alone made many people’s hearts shake, and just when they were startled, they were also very curious which genius amongst the Four Great Domain Lords had such stunning ability.

After all, there were too many geniuses that were defeated before the Daluo Golden Body.

When the commotion soared into the sky, the three Emperors quietly stood in the sky and their gazes were also directed at the golden talisman with astonishment in their eyes growing denser and denser.

The brilliance of the golden talisman lasted for nearly four days without any signs of weakening. This meant that the fellow in the depths of the Greatlaw Goldpond had really managed to endure it.

“Things are interesting now.” The Sleeping Emperor lightly smiled with some interest. Clearly, even with his faint character, his interest was piqued.

The Sky Vulture Emperor and the Spiritual Pupils Emperor had shock on their faces as their gazes flickered. They were trying to guess who it was that managed to achieve such stunning results. After all, this was the first time in so many years that someone had managed to accomplish this step. So they wish to know who it was that managed to successfully refine the Daluo Golden Body.

Down below, aside from Nine Nether, the eight remaining Kings’ faces were filled with shock. Especially Asura King, Mountain Splitting King and Blood Hawk King. All of them had their bodies tensed up and their gazes flickering. If their subordinate Domain Lord achieved that, then their reputation would soar in this competition of the Greatlaw Goldpond.

“It’s about time, it should be near the time limit for the opening of the Greatlaw Goldpond.” The Sleeping Emperor narrowed both of his eyes as he abruptly said.

Boom!

In the next instant, when he finished speaking, golden light abruptly soared from the majestic mountain and everyone immediately raised their heads. They saw three massive figures tearing apart the golden light that filled the sky and appeared on the horizon.

Everyone immediately directed their gazes over.

The three massive figures were three Sovereign Celestial Bodies. At this moment, the three Sovereign Celestial Bodies were shrouded with dazzling golden light and they seemed to be indestructible, emitting valiant aura and sweeping up whistling gales.

When everyone saw the three Sovereign Celestial Bodies, there was disappointment flashing across their eyes. They could sense that although the three Sovereign Celestial Bodies were somewhat powerful, there was still quite a gap to the Daluo Golden Body.

Boom!

Just when many people had disappointment flashing across their eyes, they saw a massive golden light soaring into the sky above the Goldpond Peak. From the pillar of light, a gigantic golden figure stepped out.

That figure was gold in colour with a great sun hovering behind its head. On the surface of its golden figure, eight dragon runes were wriggling and were faintly emitting draconic roars.

Golden light was being emitted as an indescribable pressure swept out, directly causing the three other Sovereign Celestial Bodies to dull down so much that even the light being emitted from them was suppressed.

Innumerable gazes were instantly directed over with dense shock surging on their faces. Many people were lightly inhaling chilled air.

“Eight dragon runes… it truly is the Daluo Golden Body…”

Under the uproar, the light retracted from the three Sovereign Celestial Bodies, before fading away to reveal Xu Qing, Zhou Yue and Wu Tian’s figures.

The three of them were looking at the Sovereign Celestial Body that seemed to be forged with gold in shock. Xu Qing and Zhou Yue’s gazes were complicated, while Wu Tian’s face was filled with disbelief, along with deep jealousy and darkness concealed in the depths of his eyes.

Evidently, they never expected Mu Chen to refine the Daluo Golden Body!

They had all been in the Greatlaw Goldpond, so they knew how terrifying the pressure was. Going 2,000 feet down to absorb the Goldpond energy wasn’t something that could be achieved with their current strength.

But right now, Mu Chen achieved it with the strength of only First Grade Sovereign Realm!

Xu Qing and Zhou Yue looked at Mu Chen with heavy expressions. It was so much so that there was a little fear in them for the first time. This youth that seemed gentle on the surface appeared to have many things concealed in his sleeves.

Wu Tian’s gaze was dark with cold killing intent flashing across the depths of his eyes. The potential that Mu Chen had displayed was getting stronger, which caused the killing intent in his heart to grow denser as well.

“So it really was Mu Chen!”

Tang Bing and Tang Rou couldn’t help cheering from the direction of the Nine Nether Palace. Many among the Nine Nether Troop also had a heated gaze as they faintly revered Mu Chen. After all, Mu Chen was the only Domain Lord that could refine the Daluo Golden Body after all these years in the Great Havenlaw Domain.

An uncontrollable smile had appeared on Nine Nether’s cool and elegant face as well. Mu Chen’s achievement had allowed the reputation of her Nine Nether Palace to soar. In the future, no one would dare to say that there wasn’t anyone capable in her Nine Nether Palace.

As for the eight remaining stone stages, the eight Kings were also somewhat shocked from the results. A majority of them shook their head as the results were too unexpected.

Only Blood Hawk King was indifferent, with a smear of eerie light flashing across his eyes when he looked at the dazzling golden body.

“Haha, so it really was that brat.” Up in the sky, the Sleeping Emperor was laughing as he watched this scene.

“Looks like Nine Nether has brought back a little fellow with potential.” The Sky Vulture Emperor smiled with satisfaction. This time, Nine Nether’s eyesight was clearly much better. Whether it was regarding the character or potential, the youth named Mu Chen was far from someone like Cao Feng could be compared to.

The Spiritual Pupils Emperor indifferently smiled without any expression in his gaze.

Under the eyes of countless heated gazes, the Sovereign Celestial Body that seemed to have been forged with gold gradually dissipated and Mu Chen’s figure appeared before everyone.

When he appeared, it had unexpectedly set off complicated sighs. Although they could already determine with the Sovereign Celestial Body, it still made everyone sigh a little when Mu Chen showed himself.

It was an outcome that no one had expected.

Ever since the Great Havenlaw Domain was established, Mu Chen was the only one that could achieve refining the Daluo Golden Body with the cultivation of First Grade Sovereign.

Up in the sky, Mu Chen was blankly staring into his embrace and felt it was empty. There wasn’t anyone in his embrace. But he clearly remembered that the little girl named Mandala was still in his embrace earlier…

“She must have hidden herself.”

Mu Chen bitterly smiled. With the terrifying strength of that little girl, if she genuinely wanted to conceal herself, not even the three Emperors could sense her. Now that he was tangled with her, he didn’t know if it was a fortune or disaster.

“Haha, congratulations, Mu Chen. After all these years, you are the first to refine the Daluo Golden Body successfully with the cultivation of First Grade Sovereign.” The Sky Vulture Emperor’s aged laughter rang out.

“Many thanks to the three lords.”

Mu Chen looked at the three Emperors as he cupped his fist.

“It was all your own ability.” The Sleeping Emperor, who rarely spoke, smiled. He stared at Mu Chen and suddenly frowned his brows with a smear of doubt flashing across his eyes. Shortly after, he shook his head as he got rid of the misperception.

“This competition of the Greatlaw Goldpond will now come to an end.” The Sky Vulture Emperor swept his gaze around the field as his voice lowered, “The Great Hunt will come shortly, I hope that everyone will put effort to temper yourselves.”

When the words of the Great Hunt came out, this region, which was still filled with commotion, instantly turned silent. Vaguely, chill and bloodlust were spreading out.

“Yes!”

The nine Kings acknowledged with heavy voices.

At the sight of this, the three Emperors no longer spoke and waved their hands. The golden light gradually retracted from the Goldpond Peak and the current was blocked, sealing the Goldpond Peak once again.

Up in the sky, Mu Chen landed in the direction of the Nine Nether Palace and smiled towards everyone who was in an elated mood. Everyone had also come forward in excitement.

“Let’s go.”

Nine Nether gave Mu Chen a smile and had no intention of staying there any longer. She turned around, leading everyone, and left.

When they walked down from the stone stage, they inevitably brushed by the party of the Blood Hawk Hall. The two parties had no expressions on their faces, while the Blood Hawk King and Nine Nether exchanged a glance and brushed past. However, the killing intent in that instant made many people feel a chill in their hearts.

The Blood Hawk King and Nine Nether brushed past, before he made a brief stop next to Mu Chen. He directed his scarlet gaze over, and a faint voice was transmitted into Mu Chen’s ears.

“There are too many geniuses in this world, be careful not to die prematurely…”

Mu Chen narrowed his eyes as a cold smile was lifted on the corner of his lips.
