Chapter 846 - Dark Horse VS Overlord

Clouds overturned in the azure sky as two figures confronted one another with boundless Spiritual Energy piercing the heavens. In that instant, the clouds in this region changed, the clouds were completely torn apart.

Many gazes in this region were directed at the two confronting figures in the sky.

Further away, there were lights that constantly shot over. They must have rushed over after receiving the news of the confrontation between the Overlord and Dark Horse of the Dragon-Phoenix Record.

It was a confrontation that many were greatly interested in.

Fang Yi stood in the sky with his white clothes and black hair fluttering, looking extremely confident. He first cast a glance at the number of people that were constantly coming before looking towards Mu Chen. “Looks like you have recently gotten quite popular in the Northern Region.”

“Thanks to you guys.” Mu Chen smiled.

Fang Yi wasn’t affected by Mu Chen’s hidden mockery as he smiled. “There’s no need to be courteous. Since you know that it’s thanks to us, then I just have to take it back.

“Since I can make you famous, I can also make you nameless once again.”

“Really?” Mu Chen shrugged as he looked at Fang Yi and smiled. “I’m looking forward to that. But, at the same time, I have a word of advice for you. Don’t bite more than you can chew. Otherwise, if you lose the Overlord of the Dragon-Phoenix Record title, it’d be too late for you to regret it.”

“You need to be that capable in order for that to happen.”

There wasn’t a change to Fang Yi’s expression, but a chill had swiftly surged in his eyes. Boundless Spiritual Energy swept up in his surroundings, like a storm that started to wreak havoc.

Sensing the Spiritual Energy pressure being emitted from Fang Yi, Mu Chen’s gaze had started to turn serious as well. Although there wasn’t any cowering in his words, he knew that Fang Yi was, indeed, an extremely tough opponent.

Judging from the Spiritual Energy pressure emanating from the latter, he had clearly stabilised his cultivation at the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm. Just this point alone proved that he was much stronger than Qiu Taiyin.

This battle was bound to be a hard one!

As the Spiritual Energy started to gather around the two of them, more and more people were attracted to this location, while looking at the two figures from afar as they whispered amongst themselves.

“Haha, this confrontation is truly interesting. The battle between the Overlord and Dark Horse of the Dragon-Phoenix Record. I wonder which of them will be able to smile till the end.”

“I think Fang Yi has a bigger chance of winning. After all, his strength is at the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm, while Mu Chen is only at the Fourth Grade Sovereign Realm.”

“You can’t put things that way, Mu Chen’s true strength is stronger than what it appears on the surface. It’s said that during the King’s Ceremony of the Great Havenlaw Domain, Qiu Taiyin had also stepped into the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm but had lost to Mu Chen’s hands.”

“Qiu Taiyin was someone that had just entered the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm, how can he be comparable to Fang Yi?”

“If Mu Chen is defeated, it can properly diminish his spirit. That brat’s fame has been too fierce, recently, and should be suppressed a little bit. Let him know that it’s best for him to be well-behaved and low-key in the Northern Region.”

“......”

All sorts of whispers rang out in this region. But to their confrontation, many people had a more favourable opinion of Fang Yi. After all, no matter how ferocious Mu Chen recently rose, he was still lacking in comparison to a veteran Overlord of the Dragon-Phoenix Record.

Furthermore, the most important fact was that Mu Chen’s cultivation was just at Fourth Grade Sovereign, whereas Fang Yi was in the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm.

Many people were well-aware of Mu Chen’s achievements. They knew that his actual strength was stronger than what it showed on the surface and even an ordinary Fifth Grade Sovereign would have trouble fighting him. But... Fang Yi was no ordinary Fifth Grade Sovereign.

As the focus of being nurtured in the Divine Pavilion, no one could estimate the number of cards up his sleeves.

In the valley, the trapped Blood Hawk King, Wu Tian and the rest had their heads raised as they looked at the two in the sky with slightly grave expressions. Although they had witnessed the true strength that Mu Chen had displayed during the King’s Ceremony, they had a clear understanding about how powerful Fang Yi was.

A person that could occupy the Overlord of the Dragon-Phoenix Record was definitely not a simple person.

“If Mu Chen could get out of this mess alive, his reputation amongst the younger generations in the Northern Region would be unshakable.” Blood Hawk King said slowly. Recently, Mu Chen had been rising too swiftly in the Northern Region, which also attracted countless doubts. For example, many people had felt that Mu Chen’s achievements in the Dragon-Phoenix Haven were due to the help he got from the daughter of the Flame Emperor. Therefore, there were some doubts regarding his rank being the third on the Dragon-Phoenix Record.

But this battle could stabilise his fame.

Naturally, there were risks to it as well. That’s because if he was to be defeated by Fang Yi, perhaps his title as a super dark horse would be forcefully broken. His future steps might even be greatly diminished.

In the brutal Northern Region, no one would remember a failure.

Boom!

A vast Spiritual Energy whistled like an ocean around Fang Yi. His Spiritual Energy was like thunder as it emitted deep booming roars that caused this entire region to violently undulate.

Standing opposite to Fang Yi, Mu Chen’s expression gradually turned serious. In the Dragon-Phoenix Haven, he had only briefly seen how miserable Fang Yi was forced back by Cai Xiao. Only by standing before Fang Yi did he know the pressure brought by the former.

This person was a tough opponent.

“If you’re regretting it now, it’s too late. Sometimes, a person should pay the price for being arrogant.” Fang Yi looked at Mu Chen as he coldly said.

𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Mu Chen lightly cast his lips aside. He couldn’t be bothered with Fang Yi. He abruptly clenched his hand and the Great Meru Demonic Pillar appeared, along with a torrential ominous aura. With a stomp of his foot in the sky, he had turned into a streak of light and burst forth.

Boom!

It was just an instant and the Great Meru Demonic Pillar had brought along a huge shadow with a terrifying power that smashed towards the latter without any leniency!

There wasn’t any change in Fang Yi’s expression as a golden light surged on his arm, before he slammed it against the Great Meru Demonic Pillar.

Boom!

A metallic collision echoed throughout the horizon, with shock waves that could be seen with naked-eye spreading out. Under the impact of that power, Mu Chen was sent flying back, the demonic pillar in his hands was also sent along with him.

“You’ll regret it if you treat me like the ordinary Fifth Grade Sovereigns that you have seen in the past.” Fang Yi indifferently watched this scene as he took a step out, appearing above the Great Meru Demonic Pillar, before slamming his palm down.

“Here, I’ll return it to you!”

A great Spiritual Energy force exploded as the Great Meru Demonic Pillar turned into a black shadow, along with ear-piercing explosions, as it smash down towards Mu Chen. The power behind that force was something that not even ordinary Fifth Grade Sovereigns would dare face.

“Hmph!”

Watching this scene, Mu Chen coldly snorted in his heart. Fang Yi was truly cunning. He used the Great Meru Demonic Pillar to attack him. Facing this sort of attack, if Mu Chen was to retreat, it would show that he was admitting that he’s weaker. He had actually allowed Fang Yi to seize the decisive opportunity. If he was to forcefully receive it, it would probably be what Fang Yi wished to see. Because this way, he could suppress Mu Chen with his powerful Spiritual Energy.

Countless gazes had fixed onto Mu Chen at this moment.

“I don’t need you to use my things!”

Under countless glares, Mu Chen’s face turned cold as his hands swiftly formed into seals. A golden light burst from his chest, along with an ancient draconic roar that was filled with a dreadful prestige.

As the golden light surged, the Spirit of the True Dragon appeared wandering on Mu Chen’s right arm. It was like a dragon tattoo, with the claw of the True Dragon’s Spirit covering Mu Chen’s palm and perfectly aligning to his fingers.

A golden light surged in his eyes, with his arm looking like it had expanded by a fold at this moment. Veins could be seen wriggling beneath his skin, he felt like there was a dragon hidden in his right arm!

Along with Mu Chen’s increase in strength, he had gradually started to show the power that belonged to the Dragon-Phoenix Physique!

Boom!

The Great Meru Demonic Pillar descended like a mountain, enveloping him with extremely powerful and violent Spiritual Energy. It was Fang Yi’s Spiritual Energy. He had used his Spiritual Energy to temporarily envelop the Great Meru Demonic Pillar, which prevented Mu Chen’s control over it.

Right now, the Great Meru Demonic Pillar would naturally not recognize its owner, Mu Chen.

Under countless glares, Mu Chen’s body did not move. He then raised his head and watched the massive demonic pillar that was reflected in his eyes swiftly grow. He deeply inhaled a mouthful of air, before slowly throwing a fist out under countless astonished gazes.

Boom!

There wasn’t any trick to that fist, but the power contained within it had instantly caused cracks to appear on the surrounding space.

Boom!

A metallic sound exploded like thunder, which shook the blood of many experts as it overturned, and their gazes were still fixed in the sky.

In that direction, Mu Chen had maintained a posture of throwing a fist out. Above him, the Great Meru Demonic Pillar had stopped and the powerful force behind it had been completely obliterated.

Many people could clearly see the golden Spiritual Energy that Fang Yi had used to enveloped the Great Meru Demonic Pillar had been shattered by Mu Chen’s fist.

Many experts were startled as they became shocked by the power behind Mu Chen’s fist.

Under the innumerable glares, Mu Chen’s figure moved and landed on the Great Meru Demonic Pillar. It was as if dragons were roaring in his black pupils, bringing along an indescribable pressure that swept towards Fang Yi.

“Next time, I recommend you do not touch the belongings of others, incase you embarrass yourself.” Mu Chen stood on the Great Meru Demonic Pillar, then directed his sharp gaze at Fang Yi and sneered.

Fang Yi narrowed his eyes and gently nodded his head.

“Then, let us see who is courting embarrassment!”
