As everyoneâs gaze gathered towards the youth that was on the top of the building, they instantly yelled in surprise.
Among the Goddess Luo Associationâs members, Ye Qingling and the rest had joy filling their eyes as they saw that figure. Mu Chen had finally showed up.
âItâs true that he appeared. Hmph, Iâll see how will he deal with the situation before him. Otherwise, the fame that he got from the Pact of Three Moves with great difficulty will be entirely lost.â Xu Qingqing coldly snorted.
Xu Huangâs gaze was also directed at Mu Chen. At this time, there still werenât any ripples in the eyes of the latter. However, in his eyes, while there was some faint fatigue, there still wasnât any panic.
âWhat is that fellaâŚtrying to do?â Xu Huang frowned his brows as he mumbled.
In the plaza, He Yaoâs eyes turned cold as he stared at Mu Chenâs figure and faintly mocked, âYou finally showed yourself?â
âNot to reciprocate against etiquette. Back then, the Demonâs Gate paid a visit to the Goddess Luo Association. And today, I will return the favor.â Mu Chen looked at He Yao as he smiled.
âOh?â He Yao sneered, âThen, what are you trying to do?â
âThatâs simple, get all those people that stirred trouble at the Goddess Luo Association to apologise. Thereafter, Iâll need Senior Brother He Yao to expel Yang Hong from the Demonâs Gate. That guy is always calculating and if he remains in the Demonâs Gate, itâd be unfortunate for you.â Mu Chen faintly smiled.
When Mu Chen spoke, it instantly caused a huge commotion.
Behind He Yao, Chen Hou and the rest all had ashen faces as they barked. On one side, Yang Hongâs face was also dark. He found such a great backer like the Demonâs Gate. If heâs expelled, then he would thoroughly lose his face. This request of Mu Chenâs was rather too much.
He Yaoâs gaze turned ice-cold. He stared at Mu Chen as a smear of disdain rose to the corner of his mouth, âWhat are you? You dare to make comments of my Demonâs Gate? Youâre just a bunch of freshmen. When Chen Hou and the rest made a trip to the Goddess Luo Association back then, it was just to teach their juniors some of the rules in the academy. Not only are you guys not grateful, you guys still dare to oust them out. Regarding this problem, Iâve not pursued this matter, and yet, you guys still dare to come find us instead?â
As he spoke, everyoneâs face in the Goddess Luo Association turned ugly. Clearly, they never thought that He Yao would be so shameless.
Mu Chenâs gaze dropped as he smiled, âThen, what are you? You also dared to comment about my Goddess Luo Association? To teach others the rules, are you qualified to do so?â
The surroundings became silent and many people smacked their lips. This Mu Chen truly wasnât simple. Even when facing He Yao, his words didnât gave him the slightest face.
He Yaoâs face turned darker, little by little. The Spiritual Energy around him rippled even more violently. Shortly after, he coldly smiled and sat back down on his chair. âWhat courage. Since thatâs the case, then let me inform you that your request is denied. Furthermore, the one thatâs apologising isnât my Demonâs Gate but your Goddess Luo Association.â
His gaze was dark as he stared at Mu Chen, âIf youâre not going to apologise, then Iâll let you guys leave here and return, lying down!â
When he finished his speech, he leaned against his chair and coldly smiled. He wanted to see what Mu Chen will do since he said such foolish words in his Demonâs Gateâs headquarters.
In the Goddess Luo Association, only Mu Chen, as well as that girl named Luo Li, was powerful enough. But just relying on their two strengths to intimidate the Demonâs Gate with him in command was too much of a fantasy.
When He Yao finished his speech, the surrounding gazes were, once again, directed at Mu Chen. He Yao had already said that he would not accept any requests. Whatever happened next would have to depend on the means that Mu Chen possessedâŚ
Every gaze was directed at Mu Chen. At this moment, the latter was looking at He Yao with an indifference gaze. Shortly after, he lightly smiled. Except in this smile, there was a small hint of dangerous in it.
âSince thatâs the caseâŚâ
He quietly muttered as he spread his hands out and slowly shut both of his eyes.
The surrounding gazes were staring at Mu Chen with bits of curiosity because theyâre clearly unsure of what he was doing.
He Yaoâs indifferent and cold gaze made the members of the Demonâs Gate switch to an alert state. Afterall, Mu Chenâs current action was a little too weird. Could it be that he got some powerful means up his sleeves?
The atmosphere felt as though it was frozen at this moment.
Silence paced back and forth in this region. What caused everyone to be astonished was that despite them waiting, there were no movements from Mu ChenâŚ
Everyone exchanged a glance as they pondered over what Mu Chen was trying to do.
âWhat is he doing?â Su Lingâer was also a little lost as she blankly asked Su Xuan.
Su Xuanâs brows slightly frowned as she stared at Mu Chen. Vaguely, she seemed to have sensed some peculiar ripples. Furthermore, these ripples donât seem to be limited to only Mu Chenâs surroundings.
She swept her gaze around and realised that these ripples seemed to be surrounding the entire headquarters of the Demonâs Gate.
With the atmosphere frozen, suddenly a fine vibrating sound was heard. When everyone directed their gazes over, they saw cracks appear on a pavilion that wasnât far away from Mu Chen.
Huge stones were collapsing from the pavilion and, shortly after, light was spreading out from the pavilion. The light was like a Spiritual Energy light ray as it slowly extended itself up from the pavilion.
As the pavilion collapsed, another pavilion in another direction also collapsed.
Collapsing sounds were constantly heard as everyoneâs line-of-sight shifted all around in bewilderment. Thereafter, they saw ten towering pavilions collapse in this region in just a few minutes.
The ten peculiar dazzling lights were like several scorching suns as they rose and surrounded the headquarters of the Demonâs Gate within them.
âWhatâs that?!â Everyone directed their lines-of-sight towards the ten huge lumps of light that were rising in amazement, as well as doubts.
While everyone was busy being amazed, the ten lumps of light continued to slowly rise up. Vaguely, they sensed violent Spiritual Energy ripples coming from them.
âThatâsâŚâ Su Xuan, Xu Huang, as well as those pinnacle students were watching as the lumps of light expanded. The Spiritual Energyâs trajectory made their pupils shrink back, âSpiritual Arrays?!â
âThose are all Spiritual Arrays.â Su Xuan said as she slowly sucked in a mouthful of cold air.
âSpiritual Arrays?â Su Lingâer and the rest were shocked as they cried out, âAll of those are Spiritual Arrays? How is that possible? How can Mu Chen lay out so many Spiritual Arrays at once? Just how many Spiritual Seals are needed in order to control them?â
From the looks of those Spiritual Arrays, theyâre all probably Rank 3 Spiritual Arrays. But in order to lay out ten Rank 3 Spiritual Arrays at once, itâd require a Rank 5 Spiritual Array Master, at the very least, right? But clearly, it was impossible for Mu Chen to achieve the height of a Rank 5 Spiritual Array Master, which is comparable to a Heavenly Completion Stage expert. If he managed to reach that height, wouldnât he have long become the number one figure in the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy?
âNo⌠these Spiritual Arrays seemed to be at the fledging stage of being engravedâŚâ
Su Xuanâs brows frowned again as she looked at Mu Chen, whose eyes were still tightly shut. These Spiritual Arrays seemed to have been directly engraved onto these pavilions. So, the reason why Mu Chen went missing was to hide here and engrave the Spiritual Arrays. If thatâs the case, all heâd be required to do was form the Spiritual Seals required to activate these Spiritual Arrays and control them. This way, heâd be able to completely activate these Spiritual Arrays.
But if ten Rank 3 Spiritual Arrays were activated at the same time, the might of them would be extremely terrifying.
However⌠can Mu Chen really control ten Rank 3 Spiritual Arrays?
âThat fellow⌠truly does have some means up his sleeves.â
On another construct, Xu Huang was looking at the ten lumps of light that were rising in the headquarters of the Demonâs Gate. His expression turned grave, âSo the reason why he went missing these last few days wasnât to hide, but to conceal himself in the headquarters of the Demonâs Gate and engrave the Spiritual Arrays⌠So, from the beginning, he already had this all planned out.â
âWhatâs the use of just engraving Spiritual Arrays. With his strength, isnât he just dreaming if he wants to engrave the amount of Spiritual Seals needed for ten Rank 3 Spiritual Arrays?â Xu Qingqing was also shocked by the scene before her, but she was still reluctant to admit how good Mu Chen was.
Xu Huang nodded as his gaze closely stared at Mu Chen, whose eyes were tightly shut. Could the latter really achieve that step?
These changes had clearly caused an uproar in the region. In the plaza, those of the Demonâs Gate had their expressions change as a smear of uneasiness flashed across their eyes.
The surrounding floating ten lumps of light gave them a huge amount of pressure.
A Rank 3 Spiritual Spiritual Array could threaten a Heavenly Fusion Stage. But if all ten of the Spiritual Arrays were activated at the same time, even the Heavenly Fusion Stage experts would have to run as far as they could.
At their front, He Yaoâs eyes were still deadly fixed on those huge lumps of light and his eyes were dark. That fellow actually laid down these things right under their noses and, in spite of everything, they didnât realise it at allâŚ
âHowever, I refuse to believe that with his strength at the Heavenly Fusion Stage Middle Phase, he could control so many Rank 3 Spiritual Arrays!â His eyes were ice-cold as he coldly smiled.
Under the countless gazes, Mu Chenâs surroundings fluctuated with powerful Spiritual Energy ripples. However, the current Mu Chen still had his eyes tightly shut. He shut out all the disturbances from the outside world and was focused in the Heart Array Stateâs perfect control down to the finest detail.
The current him already had a deep comprehension towards the Heart Array State. Even if his eyes were tightly shut, the outside world seemed to have been engraved inside his heart. Shortly after, images of formless wind and ripples of Heaven and Earthâs Spiritual Auras appeared in his heart.
However, by just depending on the Heart Array State, it was still impossible for him to form so many Spiritual Seals to activate all those Spiritual ArraysâŚ
His Spiritual Energy was clearly insufficient to control them all.
The corner of Mu Chenâs lips slightly rose as the palm that was in his sleeve rose. A light flashed and a round white pearl that was flickering with white light appeared. It was as though a white dragon was spiraling within the pearl.
This item was the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl they he got from the White Dragon Sovereign.
Within the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl, there was a vast amount of Spiritual Energy. Borrowing the power within it, Mu Chen could form all of the Spiritual Seals that he required!
