The Great Ruler

Chapter 1451 - Peak Blood Essence



When they dove into the lake, Mu Chen could clearly sense an intense spatial fluctuation around him before he felt like he had entered the water...

Sweeping this gaze over, he could only see Nine Nether with him within the massive bottomless ocean that gave off a feeling of terror.

Spiritual light rose from their bodies, isolating themselves from the water. Looking at the emerald water around him, Mu Chen squinted his eyes. He could sense a density. He could clearly sense that every single drop contained a miniature image of beasts...

“What a pure bloodline power in the ocean.” Mu Chen sighed. The so-called “Deification Pool” was similar to the Divinity Sea in the Divine Beast Origin. However, the former was artificial, since the Heavenly Sovereigns willingly entered before their deaths. Thus, it was easier for absorption.

On the other hand, the Divinity Sea came from those Heavenly Sovereigns that died in battle, all of which contained different wills. Thus, it was more violent and harder to absorb.

“It’s a pity that you’re not in the Heavenly Sovereign Realm yet. Otherwise, cultivating in the Divinity Sea would be much better than this place.” Mu Chen said.

Back then, the three Beast Sovereigns had given him a jade talisman that could grant him an entry’s chance. But after using it, that Divinity Sea might disappear in the void.

“That Divinity Sea is powerful, but it’s too dangerous. Furthermore... you’re more suitable to use that last chance.” Nine Nether casually smiled.

Shaking his head, Mu Chen did not continue, but looked around and asked, “What should we do now?”

“This Deification Pool was formed by the ancestors, and the bloodlines here are extremely powerful. They will ultimately condense into Peak Blood Essences that are extremely beneficial for Divine Beasts like us. If we can refine them, they will refine and evolve our bloodline.”

Nine Nether’s eyes blazed as she looked around and continued, “The Peak Blood Essences are extremely powerful and can turn into the image of Divine Beasts that wanders in this Deification Pool. If we encounter them, we can try to capture them.

“But we have to grasp the time. Although this Deification Pool seems massive, the Peak Blood Essences are extremely limited, especially when there are other competitors fighting for them.”

“Powerful...” Mu Chen narrowed his eyes and his Spiritual Energy sense swept out. Although this ocean was permeating with a bloodline aura, those Peak Blood Essences were extremely condensed, so he could sense them if they’re nearby.

Seeing Mu Chen’s attempt, Nine Nether quietly stood to the side and did not interrupt him.

Mu Chen’s perception lasted for a while before he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the northwest. “There, there’s a powerful bloodline aura in that direction!”

“Let’s go!” Nine Nether’s mind trembled upon hearing that and the two of them burst forth, drawing two deep lines in the emerald ocean.

According to the direction that Mu Chen had pointed out, they flew for roughly a few minutes before they slowed down and looked up ahead in curiosity. They saw a massive golden falcon spreading its wings with torrential waves of bloodline sweeping out.

Mu Chen squinted his eyes and could see a crimson pearl at the center of that golden falcon with a dense bloodline aura that even left him speechless.

“Although this golden falcon was a Peak Blood Essence, it is comparable to a Perfected Earth Sovereign.” Nine Nether bitterly smiled. This was the reason why those beneath the Heavenly Sovereign Realm were allowed to bring a protector. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to obtain it, even if she had found one.

“Leave it to me.” Mu Chen smiled and swept his hand out. His massive Spiritual Energy instantly swept out and formed into a gigantic hand that grabbed towards the golden falcon.

The falcon also sensed the approach of that hand. Although it didn’t have any intellect, it immediately tried to escape due to its instincts.

But when it spread its wings out, the hand fell and crushed it, exploding the falcon.

As the wave of bloodline swept out, Mu Chen stretched his hand out and seized a crimson light that hovered on his palm.

It was a fist-sized blood pearl that looked extremely exotic, emitting a dense bloodline aura from it.

Staring at the Peak Blood Essence, Mu Chen couldn’t help being shocked by the density of bloodline, and his expression changed when he sensed the True Dragon and Phoenix Spirits hiding in his body roaring out.

They were emanating a thirst, as if they wanted to devour this Peak Blood Essence.

Mu Chen was astonished upon sensing the changes in the True Dragon and Phoenix Spirits. Before he stepped into the Heavenly Sovereign Realm, those two spirits couldn’t pose much help to him. But once he had stepped into the Heavenly Sovereign Realm, they became useless to him.

They couldn’t help in a battle between Heavenly Sovereigns, so Mu Chen had thought of many ways to try and evolve the two spirits to become genuine the True Dragon and Phoenix. But it was a pity that there was nothing he could do to help.

“Looks like this Deification Pool is also an opportunity for my True Dragon and Phoenix Spirits.” Mu Chen pondered. If the two spirits could break through into the Heavenly Sovereign Realm, then they would be useful to Mu Chen again.

Mu Chen suppressed those thoughts and flicked his finger, sending the Peak Blood Essence to Nine Nether.

His objective in this Deification Pool was to help Nine Nether in her evolution. At least he had to complete that task before he could consider himself.

“Thanks!” Nine Nether wasn’t courteous. She immediately opened her mouth and the Peak Blood Essence turned into a streak of blood light that shot into her mouth that exploded with torrential blood wave in the next instant.

Blood runes appeared on Nine Nether’s skin. There was a massive change in her body. Boundless blood aura infused with her body and the Undying Bird’s Bloodline hidden in her body gradually grew denser.

These changes lasted for roughly half an incense’s time before she gradually opened her eyes with deep purple flames blazing within them.

“Truly the Deification Pool.” Nine Nether couldn’t help praising. She had been bitterly cultivating in the past to make her bloodline a little denser. However, the growth from a Peak Blood Essence was shocking.

Mu Chen could clearly see the growth in Nine Nether, but he wasn’t surprised. The cultivation of Divine Beasts wasn’t the same as humans. Humans were weak upon birth, and they had to grow stronger through their cultivation. On the contrary, it would be tough for Divine Beasts to improve their strength, but the moment there’s an opportunity, their cultivation would undergo massive growth.

“Let’s continue.” Mu Chen smiled. The Peak Blood Essence in the Deification Pool were extremely rare, so he had to grasp the time to obtain them.

When he finished his words, he flew out again with Nine Nether following behind him.

Roughly a few hours later, they encountered seven beasts formed by the Peak Blood Essence due to Mu Chen’s perception, which Mu Chen easily crushed them into their original form, and Nine Nether devoured them.

Under the influence of those Peak Blood Essences, Nine Nether’s aura slowly grew and the massive blood aura in her body also permeated, forming into the image of an egg behind her...

Mu Chen knew that it was a sign that Nine Nether’s bloodline was evolving. The moment the egg broke, she would evolve into the Undying Bird.

“Finally... an opportunity to evolve...” Nine Nether opened her eyes with excitement on her face. She had been waiting for this day for a long time.

“But, I still need a massive aura of bloodlines to grab ahold of this opportunity...”

Mu Chen focused his attention on the left and smiled after hearing Nine Nether’s words. “I sensed a big fella.”

While Nine Nether was absorbing the Peak Blood Essence, he had spread his senses out and felt an extremely vigorous aura from the distance that was denser than what they’ve previously encountered.

That aura of that Peak Blood Essence was probably comparable to a Spirit Heavenly Sovereign.

“Let’s go!” Mu Chen anxiously flew out with Nine Nether following behind him.

Ten-odd minutes later, Mu Chen’s silhouette stopped and he looked up ahead with Nine Nether’s face covered in shock as well.

There was a massive roc that was a few myriad feet high before them that would sweep up myriad waves as it flapped its wings.

“The aura in this Peak Blood Essence is comparable to an Initial Phase Spirit Heavenly Sovereign.” Mu Chen sighed and instantly made his move. A massive hand of Spiritual Energy descended from the sky that locked onto that roc’s path of retreat. Although it had the aura of an Initial Phase Spirit Heavenly Sovereign, it was weak in terms of battle and couldn’t compete with Mu Chen.

Thus, Mu Chen’s move could certainly capture it.

But just when that Spiritual Energy hand was about to touch the roc, an incident suddenly occurred. A golden feathered wing pierced through space that was akin to a blade that shattered Mu Chen’s Spiritual Energy hand.

A cold light flickered in Mu Chen’s eyes before he slowly raised his head and coldly looked at the other party.

It was a golden silhouette that walked over with his hands tugged together. He had a ridiculing smile on his face. It was clearly Fang Jing of the Golden Phoenix Condor Clan, who had ridiculed Mu Chen outside the Deification Pool!

Fang Jing tugged his hands together with ferocity as he stared at Mu Chen, along with his cold bark that resounded, “I have my eyes on this Peak Blood Essence. I’m giving the two of you ten breaths to scram!”
