The Great Ruler

Chapter 1397 - Profound Sky Ancestor

Greatlaw Continent, the Northern Region

A year ago, the Mu Abode replaced the three other Overlords as the strongest force in the Northern Region after Mu Chen exhibited his prowess.

With that, the Mu Abode has been flourishing over the past year, occupying half of the Northern Region's resources. Their strength has also risen, and not only was their reputation strong in the Northern Region; they even had some fame in the Greatlaw Continent. On the contrary, the three Overlords stayed low-profiled, causing more experts to join the Mu Abode.

However, the three Overlords maintained their silence facing the Mu Abode. But everyone knew that the silence wouldn't last, since the three Overlords each had a supreme force backing them up, and those forces would naturally not watch as the forces that they have been supporting for years were kicked out of the Northern Region.

Thus, the silence was only the calm before the storm.

Mandala, who was managing the entire Mu Abode, naturally knew about this. Thus, she never felt relaxed and paid attention to the three Overlords at all times.

She knew that the three Overlords would launch their retaliation.

And her anticipation wasn't wrong. Roughly half a year after Mu Chen left, a palace descended from the sky and hovered above the Mu Abode.

When the palace descended, it had caused a panic in the Mu Abode. There was a tremendous pressure that spread out from it, enveloping a few hundred miles in radius, leaving everyone under the pressure trembling in fear.

This pressure was something that came from a genuine Heavenly Sovereign!

However, the palace hovering above the Mu Abode did not take a further step. It simply stayed above the Mu Abode.

A jade letter also flew down with a robust voice that echoed throughout the entire Northern Region.

"I am the Profound Sky Ancestor and I have received the favor of someone. Mu Abode's Ruler, why are you still not here to receive me?!" The robust voice was spoken in an overlooking manner and did not place Mu Chen in his eyes. It actually sounded strict, as if it was instructing a Junior.

That tone had undoubtedly caused rage in the higher hierarchy of the Mu Abode, but there was nothing they could do about it. Even if their Mu Abode has grown stronger, they're puny when compared to a Heavenly Sovereign. If that Heavenly Sovereign made a move, no one in the Mu Abode could block it.

Facing a Heavenly Sovereign unleashing his pressure above the Mu Abode, Mandala was also furious when she received the letter. She tried to negotiate with the owner of the palace, but she was actually kept out after arriving before the palace.

"Let your Mu Abode's Ruler come. You're still not qualified to meet with this Ancestor." When Mandala was rejected, a casual voice echoed from the horizon.

Mandala's face turned pale from the humiliation. She then took a breath to suppress the rage in her heart. She retrieved the Demon Slayer King Token that Mu Chen had left behind and shot it into the palace with a flick.

That Demon Slayer King Token was an item of the Great Thousand Palace, and it represented the status of a Demon Slayer King. The Great Thousand Palace wasn't something that an ordinary Heavenly Sovereign could provoke.

But this time, a burst of laughter rang out and the Demon Slayer King Token was thrown back out.

"A mere powerlessly Demon Slayer King wants to try and scare me?

"Get lost, and get your Mu Abode's Ruler to come and meet me. Otherwise, this Ancestor will stay out here for years, and I'll see how your Mu Abode has the face to stay here."

When Mandala took the token, her face was pale, and her heart sank. When she heard the Heavenly Sovereign's words, she knew that this person must have some understanding of Mu Chen and even came prepared. Thus, this person wasn't afraid of the Great Thousand Palace.

Facing this situation, Mandala was also helpless. She could only cast a cold glance at the palace before she turned around and left.

Over the next half a year, the palace really did remain above the Mu Abode, and that Heavenly Sovereign even unleashed his pressure at all times, causing the experts in the Mu Abode to feel bitter.

It was the same as humiliating with the Mu Abode. After all, the Heavenly Sovereign was purposely staying outside their doors, which was a hit to their reputation.

When the Mu Abode was troubled by this, the Violet Cloud Sect, Thunder Note Mountain, and the Golden Eagle Mansion all came over and entered the palace. They had successfully paid a visit to the Profound Sky Ancestor.

Everyone clearly saw this scene in the Mu Abode and all of them felt uneasy.

It was also at this moment that the three forces started to join forces and gradually devoured the Mu Abode's territories…

This had caused the Mu Abode to be instantly thrown into an unprecedented crisis, and tottering on the verge of collapse.

As time passed, the news of a Heavenly Sovereign intimidating above the Mu Abode not only spread throughout the Northern Region, it even spread throughout the Greatlaw Continent. Thus, all ears and eyes were instantly directed at the Northern Region.

After all, the appearance of a Heavenly Sovereign naturally attracted all the attention.

Although there was an unwritten rule that no Heavenly Sovereign was allowed to interfere in the struggles, the Profound Sky Ancestor wasn't here to fight the Mu Abode for power. Instead, it's a personal feud directed at Mu Chen. Thus, it wasn't against the rules.

After all, no one was willing to offend a Heavenly Sovereign for a Mu Abode that didn't even have a Heavenly Sovereign.

Thus, facing the Mu Abode's setback, everyone practically watched from the sidelines. They were hoping for the Mu Abode's disbandment. After all, the fighting strength that Mu Chen had exhibited even made them feel fearful.

Fortunately, the Mu Abode didn't have a Heavenly Sovereign, but if they managed to find backing in the future, then it's impossible to stop the Mu Abode from growing bigger.

Thus, the Mu Abode had, unknowingly, become the focus of all attention…

Time passed and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

For the Mu Abode, that half-year was undoubtedly torment. They were initially flourishing, but it had entirely turned because of the Profound Sky Ancestor.

However, the Profound Sky Ancestor did not launch any attacks, despite the fact that he could easily flip the entire Mu Abode. On the other hand, he had chosen this vicious means to grind down the morale of the Mu Abode.

He would send a jade letter down every day to force Mu Chen to appear. But at this moment, the latter was no longer in the Northern Region, so Mu Chen naturally wouldn't know about it. As time passed, there were even rumors going out that the Mu Abode's Ruler was afraid of a Heavenly Sovereign and secretly fled…

The three Overlords naturally caused this rumor, and the effect was excellent. Those forces that initially submitted to the Mu Abode were tottering and showed signs of leaving.

Judging from the current appearance, it's the Mu Abode showing the sign of falling, no matter how one looked at it. A man looked out for himself, and they naturally had no intention to live and die together with the Mu Abode.

Thus, the Mu Abode was tottering, and in just half a year, the flourish was no longer there and looked on the verge of collapsing…

Another day had passed.

The higher hierarchy of the Mu Abode was gathered together with a depressing atmosphere. All of them looked up at the palace in the sky, where the pressure emanated from and was enforced onto everyone.

"Lord Mandala, the Iron Mount Sect, and Sublime Note Sect have announced their separation from the Mu Abode today." Liu Tiandao sighed and solemnly said.

Mandala and Ling Xi exchanged a look before everyone, and both of their faces were ugly. Despite how they tried to persevere for the past half-year, they still couldn't help feeling exhausted.

The Profound Sky Ancestor was akin to a mountain that made everyone in the Mu Abode feel suffocating, and everyone was panicking. If it wasn't for Mu Chen's glorious achievements in the past, the Mu Abode would have collapsed by now.

At this moment, they understood the importance of a Heavenly Sovereign to a force.

Mandala raised her face and looked at the high palace, while forming fists, before coldly saying, "That Profound Sky Ancestor is truly vicious. He wants to use this method to cause the Mu Abode to collapse."

Liu Tiandao and the rest fell into a brief silence before they said, "Does the Abode Ruler know about this?"

Mandala shook her head. "He went to look for his path to the Heavenly Sovereign Realm, and even we are not able to contact him."

Liu Tiandao bitterly smiled. "If that's the case, I'm afraid that we won't last long."

Gritting her teeth, Mandala responded. "As long as Mu Chen is still alive, the Mu Abode will not disappear. When he steps into the Heavenly Sovereign Realm, the Mu Abode can be revived, even if it has been defeated!"

Liu Tiandao and the rest inwardly sighed. How was the Heavenly Sovereign Realm so easy to reach? Even if Mu Chen had countless achievements and talents, how would it be easy for him to step into the Heavenly Sovereign Realm without great fortune?

Furthermore, even if Mu Chen did step into the Heavenly Sovereign Realm, this situation still wasn't hard to resolve. Although it might appear that the palace only had the Profound Sky Ancestor, they knew that the supreme forces behind the three Overlords have been moving, and each supreme force had a Heavenly Sovereign standing behind them…

Their current situation was perilous!

When they sighed, a streak of light flew down from the palace and turned into another jade letter with a robust voice echoing out in the Northern Region.

"Brat, if you still do not show yourself, I'm afraid that there won't be anyone else remaining in your Mu Abode…"

When Mandala heard that ridicule, crackles could be heard sounding from her hand, with Ling Xi and Long Xiang fuming with anger. If it wasn't for the vast gap between them, they would've made their move by now.

The faces of everyone in the Mu Abode were dark and gloomy as well.

"Mhm?" But when everyone fell into silence, their expressions suddenly changed and they raised their heads. Space suddenly distorted in the distance and a spiritual light burst out, before a slender silhouette stepped over. In just a breath's time, he had already appeared above the Mu Abode.

Mandala and the rest were stunned when they looked at that silhouette, and a brief moment later, their eyes suddenly widened.

"That's?"

"It seems like the Abode Ruler?" Liu Tiandao rubbed his eyes as he exclaimed out in disbelief.

A youthful silhouette came over and waved his hand. The jade letter flew over. He didn't even bother taking a look before he crushed it into dust.

His gaze was cold as he looked at the palace above and pointed his finger.

The space around the palace collapsed by his finger and spatial fragments had turned into a huge hand that grabbed ahold of the palace and crushed it.

When the palace was destroyed, his voice echoed throughout the entire Northern Region, along with sharp killing intent, "Since you like to stay in my Mu Abode so much, then there's no need for you to leave…"
