The Great Ruler (Web Novel) - Chapter 633 — Cutting the weed and eliminating the root
Chapter 633 - Cutting the weed and eliminating the root
The petals of the bewitching mandala flower were swaying and slowly blossoming with purple lustre, causing this space to be exceptionally distorted.
Purple light lingered as it formed a light screen that enveloped the Primordial Skydragon Hawk.
Dense fear surged from the Primordial Skydragon Hawk’s ferocious eyes as that mysterious mandala flower made him feel a deadly threat.
That pressure was even stronger than earlier when Nine Nether appeared.
Boom!
He flapped his broad wings and heavily slammed against the purple light screen. The dreadful impact caused fluctuations on the purple light screen.
Mu Chen’s eyes were indifferent as he looked at the raging Primordial Skydragon Hawk as the lotus seal in his hand changed once again.
Tsk! Tsk!
Purple rays of light burst from the mandala flower. The flower was formed with endless runes, making it seem profound, and the vines were covered in sharp spikes.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The mandala flower swept out from all directions as it tangled the body of the Primordial Skydragon Hawk at lightning speed.
Liiiii!
Along with the shrouding of the purple vines, the Primordial Skydragon Hawk unleashed a sharp cry. The terrifying ripples on its body were rapidly diminishing and judging from the looks of it, it was actually being restrained at this moment.
Nine Nether witnessed the scene as she flung the corner of her lips to the side. She knew exactly how great that mysterious mandala flower was. Back then, when she was in Mu Chen’s body, she suffered a massive loss from it.
But the times have changed. With Mu Chen’s strength, in addition to hers, it was possible to summon the real mysterious mandala flower out. This time, the Primordial Skydragon Hawk had bumped into a hot iron plate.
Boom! Boom!
Violent Spiritual Energy ripples violently exploded, and the Primordial Skydragon Hawk had clearly sensed something was amiss as it violently struggled. However, no matter how it fought, it was unable to break free from the purple vines. Furthermore, the spikes on the vines pierced deeper into his body as he struggled, covering him in blood.
“Seal!”
Mu Chen’s face was grave as he unleashed a bark and his hand seals rapidly changed.
Tsk! Tsk!
Innumerable vines started to withdraw, along with the massive size of the Primordial Skydragon Hawk, into the centre of the mandala flower.
Although that speed was slow, it was substantial, since it wasn’t affected by the struggling Primordial Skydragon Hawk.
When it was closing in on the mysterious mandala flower, fear finally surged in the eyes of the Primordial Skydragon Hawk as he anxiously yelled, “I admit defeat, I will no longer put a hand into the matters between you and Ji Xuan!”
Mu Chen’s gaze was calm as he gently shook his head while looking at the Primordial Skydragon Hawk. It was a little late to admit defeat now. Furthermore, he wasn’t someone who would be unnecessarily lenient at this crucial point in time.
Thus, the speed of the purple vines increased and finally, the massive size of the Primordial Skydragon Hawk was pulled into the centre of the purple mandala flower. In an instant, the bewitching petals folded up, bit by bit, into a flower bud, covering up the Primordial Skydragon Hawk.
Profound purple runes appeared on the surface of the flower bud, as if it was a mysterious seal that had utterly sealed the aura of the Primordial Skydragon Hawk.
Boom! Boom!
Occasionally, there would be violent trembles coming from the flower bud. It was probably the Primordial Skydragon Hawk struggling within, but it wasn’t able to break free.
Innumerable people looked at the large bewitching flower bud, and their gazes were a little dazed. Who could have imagined that the mighty Primordial Skydragon Hawk from before would be subdued just like that…?
That was a powerful Spiritual Beast with the strength of Fourth Grade Sovereign!
Even the various Deans seated up in midair might not have the confidence to thoroughly suppress it. However, such a young man had achieved that.
Even with the composure of the Deans up in the sky, they couldn’t help going into silence at his moment as they exchanged looks. They were a little shocked in their hearts as they looked at the towering youth with complicated gazes.
This boy is out of the ordinary.
Under the innumerable gazes, Mu Chen made a gesture, causing the large flower bud to return and it was devoured by the Nine Netherworld Bird.
With Mu Chen’s strength, even if he could seal the Primordial Skydragon Hawk with the help of Nine Nether’s power, it was impossible for him to thoroughly refine it; thus, he needed Nine Nether to process this step.
With Nine Nether’s current strength and the might of the undying flames, it wasn’t a difficult task for her to deal with the Primordial Skydragon Hawk.
When Nine Nether devoured the flower bud, Ji Xuan, who had his eyes shut, abruptly opened them. His face was pale, and a mouthful of fresh blood spewed out. His complexion was terrible, and his eyes were filled with shock.
Although his body was controlled by the Primordial Skydragon Hawk earlier, he was able to witness what happened.
Ji Xuan’s gaze stared at the indifferent Mu Chen with disbelief. He actually… defeated even the Primordial Skydragon Hawk? Because of the lodging relationship between them, Ji Xuan could sense that he had lost the connection with the Primordial Skydragon Hawk. Evidently, the latter was thoroughly trapped.
“How is that possible…?” Ji Xuan’scomplexion was pale as he muttered to himself without any spirit. The splendour that he had earlier had thoroughly disappeared, even his gaze had darkened.
I refuse to believe that I have failed!
All those years, he had been the most outstanding amongst his generation, far surpassing those self-proclaimed geniuses behind him. Even the formidable opponent that he had once considered as his greatest enemy, Mu Chen, wasn’t in his eyes when he felt that he had sufficient powerful trump cards to suppress anyone in the same generation!
However, the results made him feel thunderstruck.
He had revealed his trump cards again and again, but this youth before him could always thoroughly defeat him and flip the situation around.
Unknowingly, this youth that he had schemed to expel from the Spiritual Road had, once again, surpassed him.
He looked at the youth that was standing on top of the massive Nine Netherworld Bird. The latter was emitting a radiating lustre and, just like that, he had become the most dazzling existence in this region.
Endless waves of envy and rage surged from Ji Xuan’s heart. That brilliance and honour should be mine!
He felt unresigned!
However, as he clenched his teeth, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine as he saw an eerie killing intent gushing within Mu Chen’s indifferent eyes.
Rustle!
In the next instant, Mu Chen’s figure had suddenly disappeared.
Ji Xuan felt his scalp numbing as his thoughts swiftly revolved in his heart. He knew what was Mu Chen trying to do. He was trying to cut the weeds and pull out the roots!
“I admit…” Ji Xuan clenched his teeth with a pale expression as he had ultimately decided to admit defeat. At this sort of time, if he had refused to accept defeat, with Mu Chen’s personality, he would definitely not hesitate to kill him.
Although admitting defeat would be a massive blow to his self-confidence, he was not a pedantic person. Losing face was better than losing his life, if he lost his face, he could get it back, but if he had lost his life, he would lose everything.
He had confidence in himself. As long as I’m alive, the day will come where Mu Chen will regret it!
However, because Mu Chen understood his opponent too well, and Ji Xuan wasn’t any weaker than him, he would definitely not give Ji Xuan that chance.
Before Ji Xuan could yell out the last word, Mu Chen’s figure had appeared before him, like a ghost. There wasn’t any hesitation in him as he bent both of his fingers, forming into a sword as vast Spiritual Energy exploded without the slightest restraint. The gale was like a streak of light that pierced Ji Xuan’s chest at lightning speed.
Poof!
The finger pierced Ji Xuan’s chest as a bloody mist splashed out. His body flew back in an instant. There weren’t any changes to Mu Chen’s expression as he strode forth under everyone’s attention as he threw a palm out filled with dense killing intent.
“Impudent!”
Up in midair, Saint Spiritual Academy’s Dean Tiansheng roared with anger as he abruptly stood up. In an instant, the sky darkened as an indescribable pressure engulfed the area, instantly restricting Mu Chen’s movements.
“Hmph!”
When the pressure engulfed Mu Chen, a cold snort resounded and dissipated that pressure. Dean Tai Cang abruptly stood up as he stared at Dean Tiansheng.
There wasn’t any expression written on Mu Chen’s face as he did not stop his movement, regardless of the actions of the two influential figures. He seized the opportunity and slammed his palm against Ji Xuan’s body.
Lightning surged in that palm as that energy became extremely overbearing.
Boom!
As the lightning bombarded him, Ji Xuan’s chest collapsed as he spewed a mouthful of blood, mixed together with his shattered internal organs. His figure shot out in a miserable state, but his eyes were still filled with endless viciousness.
Whoosh!
However, that viciousness of his only lasted for an instant, before it was replaced with fear as he saw the Nine Netherworld Bird suddenly open its mouth as golden-purple flames swept out and engulfed him.
A terrifying temperature wreaked havoc as Ji Xuan’s body was instantly reduced to ashes under the innumerable shocked gazes.
Poof.
Ashes drifted as a strand of undetectable light flew out. It was Ji Xuan’s Sovereign Sea, even if his physical body was destroyed, his Spirit was concealed in his Sovereign Sea. As long as his Sovereign Sea lived, he could still recreate his body with enough time.
Whoosh!
However, when that light shot out, another blow of purple flames descended from the sky, instantly lighting it on fire and it exploded. In that instant, terrifying Spiritual Energy violently wreaked havoc.
An anguished howl yelled out that resonated between the earth and sky.
“Impudent thing!”
Up in the sky, Dean Tiansheng roared with anger and waved his hand. A current of Spiritual Energy was instantly formed as it charged into the destructive Spiritual Energy and grabbed onto that tiny light.
The current protected that little bit of light and withdrew into Dean Tiansheng’s hand. He looked at that nearly illusionary light figure, which was Ji Xuan’s spirit. However, his Spirit had suffered a substantial injury and would dissipate soon.
This instantly made Dean Tiansheng’s face pale. Ji Xuan’s Spirit was heavily wounded, it was already not possible for him to recover from such injuries. From today onwards, even if Ji Xuan could still cultivate, it was tough for him to achieve anything.
“The two of you have quite the nerve!”
Dean Tiansheng’s face seemed like it was shrouded with rainstorm as he shot a dark glance at Mu Chen and the Nine Netherworld Bird, the eeriness in his eyes instantly dropped the temperature in this region.
