Chapter 1362: Chapter 659: The Universe in All Directions (Part 2)

“Goo!”

The Black Shadow Abyss Beast’s bloated and fat body emerged, restored to its peak state of the Nine Layer Heavens, emitting a terrifyingly angry roar that shook the Nine Layers of Void, causing the void to fracture layer by layer, transforming into terrifying waves pursuing the direction of Molten Fire City.

This eruption was nearly reckless, enveloping numerous Seven Layer and Eight Layer Abyss Beasts, with thousands of Seven Layer Abyss Beasts instantly exploding and perishing, and many Eight Layer Abyss Beasts shivering from the shock.

However, this terrifying attack permeated the void, spreading all the way but ultimately failing to catch up with the already distant Molten Fire City.

After letting out this roar,

The Black Shadow Abyss Beast quickly transformed into a stream of light again, chasing towards the depths of the cavern, and in just a moment, it reached the end of this cavern, where a passage as black as a pool lay horizontally at the cavern’s bottom.

Not far from the passage was a twelve-legged Giant Elephant Abyss Beast, staring intently at the passage leading to other layers, with a look of anger and brutality in its enormous eyes, yet not daring to approach, seemingly fearing the unknown within the passage.

“Goo.”

The Black Shadow Abyss Beast also stopped in front of the pitch-black void passage, letting out an angry roar but not daring to cross the thunder pool, not daring to step into the interior of the void passage.

…

On the other side,

In the empty and quiet cavern, the pitch-black passage lay like a calm pool surface.

The next moment, a ripple appeared on the pool’s surface, followed by a small object like an Imperial Seal breaking through from the black passage, instantly falling into the cavern’s interior, this ‘Imperial Seal’-like small object was the shrunken form of Molten Fire City.

Above Molten Fire City’s city barrier, having finally shaken off the pursuit of the Abyss Beasts, all the Divine Monarchs of the Flame Sun Association let out a breath of relief, and upon regaining their composure, numerous gazes fell uniformly onto a certain area on the barrier.

Chen Mu stood there alone.

“That move just now…”

Some recalled the scene that had just unfolded, their eyes filled with a few traces of shock.

Although he was just an ordinary Seven Layer Heavenly Divine Monarch, not yet reaching the Seventh Layer Heaven Peak, and very far from the Eighth Layer Heaven, as a Divine Monarch, he still had the ability to judge the power of techniques.

The move Chen Mu used earlier trapped the Black Shadow Abyss Beast, making it unable to escape, it seemed not just for a moment but almost capable of long-term suppression, indicating that the power of Chen Mu’s move was at least at the Eighth Layer Heaven Peak, possibly even surpassing it to reach the Eighth Layer Heaven Limit!

Eighth Layer Heaven Limit?!

Wasn’t it said that the ‘Mu Divine Monarch’, who joined the Flame Sun Association only a few epochs ago, was merely reaching the Eighth Layer Heaven threshold, not even mastering the Three Profound Mysterious Fusion, the weakest among Divine Monarch Dominators?

Yet the technique from earlier, even as a Divine Monarch of the Creation Lineage, he couldn’t fully comprehend, but he could sense its internal complexity containing profound Mystical Fusion of the Void Lineage, extremely profound, possibly containing not just one type of Three Mysterious Fusion Power!

“How could it be…”

Sovereigns such as Jingtian Divine Monarch and Lv He Divine Monarch, who had guarded the city with Chen Mu several epochs ago, now had eyes filled with surprise and amazement, all with a bit of shock and uncertainty.

When Chen Mu joined the Flame Sun Association, he did so with the strength of the Eighth Layer Heaven threshold, during city defense he never revealed techniques beyond that level, how in a short few epochs did he suddenly transform and exceed the Eighth Layer Heaven Peak?!

If it were said that Chen Mu had a sudden insight in these seven epochs, gaining the Three Profound Mysterious Fusion, added with a deep foundational background, reaching the Eighth Layer Heaven Peak directly, it would be barely understandable, yet the technique Chen Mu just displayed seemed to Jingtian Divine Monarch to contain more than one fusion power!

Seven epochs, consecutively comprehending several types of Three Mysterious Fusion Power?

This is clearly fantastical!

The only possibility is that Chen Mu’s real power and realm from the beginning was deeply rooted in the Eighth Layer Heaven Peak or Eighth Layer Heaven Limit, having just recently fallen into the Abyss of Eternity, joining the Flame Sun Association and retaining some caution, hiding part of his strength and only showing the threshold level of the Eighth Layer Heaven.

This reasoning makes sense, considering many Divine Monarchs joining the Flame Sun Association initially kept some cards and techniques hidden as a precaution, Chen Mu’s behavior is not surprising.

Moreover, many Divine Monarchs in Molten Fire City initially attempted to befriend Chen Mu, even some of the Eighth Layer Heavenly Divine Monarchs included, but Chen Mu ignored them all, initially perceived as arrogant, yet now it seems understandable, since Chen Mu is comparable to the Flame Sun Divine Monarch, only a hair’s breadth away from the Ninth Layer Heaven, being an independent figure is normal.

“Fan Gu brother, you rascal, you even hid this from me.”

Above the city barrier, Peng Yu Divine Monarch suddenly glanced at Fan Gu Divine Monarch, playfully scolding, “This Mu Divine Monarch, is not some junior protégé of yours, probably should be a senior you’ve befriended.”

Reflecting on Chen Mu’s situation when joining the Flame Sun Association, Peng Yu also felt amused and exasperated, Fan Gu Divine Monarch specifically left Molten Fire City to personally welcome Chen Mu, he initially thought Chen Mu was a young protégé known to Fan Gu Divine Monarch, when it now appears Chen Mu may be Fan Gu’s senior whom Fan Gu went out to welcome!

After all, Chen Mu not only knew Fan Gu but also shared identical Void Lineage techniques!

Peng Yu felt somewhat exasperated that despite being good friends with Fan Gu for a while, Fan Gu still didn’t disclose this, if he’d known earlier that Chen Mu was an Eighth Layer Heaven Limit existence of the Void Lineage, he would have sought a chance to personally visit and befriend him long ago.

“…”

Fan Gu Divine Monarch merely smiled silently to Peng Yu’s playful scolding.

Junior?

Senior?

Peng Yu’s words, in a certain sense, might just be the truth, Fan Gu now believes.

If Chen Mu’s past growth could be explained as an unparalleled genius, then in the short span of several epochs, consecutively comprehending multiple types of Three Mysterious Fusion Power, his understanding of the Void Dao directly chasing his, even surpassing him in power, such growth and transformation speed can only be explained by ‘Reincarnation of Supreme Divine Monarch’.

Since Chen Mu is a reincarnation of a Ninth Layer Heaven Divine Monarch, accounting from the creation of Da Xuan World, indeed he is a junior to Fan Gu, having received some guidance from him, yet if considering across lifetimes, the Ninth Layer Heaven’s Supreme Divine Monarch, would have endured ages far longer and ancient than him, truly surpassing him in the cultivation path, being a senior of the Void Lineage.

Of course,

He wouldn’t publicly say any of this.

After all, the reincarnation of Nine Layer Heavens could involve disputes among those Ninth Layer Heavenly Divine Monarchs, even though the Abyss of Eternity is vast, the Flame Sun Association is merely a common force within the Molten Lava Cave, it’s unlikely to be involved in Chen Mu’s past life’s disputes, even Flame Sun Association’s president Flame Sun Divine Monarch was just the Eighth Layer Heaven Limit, but Fan Gu Divine Monarch still remained silent.

Considering none of the Divine Monarchs of the Flame Sun Association currently suspect Chen Mu’s reincarnation of Nine Layer Heavens.

“Truly unexpected.”

Mo Yu Divine Monarch, wearing a black and gold elegant robe, looked distantly at Chen Mu, inwardly chuckling and shaking his head.

Upon Chen Mu’s entry into the Flame Sun Association, hearing Mu Divine Monarch was merely at the Eighth Layer Heaven threshold level, he hadn’t paid much attention, turns out to be someone comparable to the Flame Sun president, perhaps he had underestimated him, though Chen Mu hid his strength and was of the rare Void Lineage, it was only natural Peng Yu failed to notice upon Chen Mu’s joining.

Since Chen Mu is someone comparable to the Flame Sun Divine Monarch, he too should actively seek to connect and visit.

“Eighth Layer Heaven Limit of the Void Lineage, huh…”

Gen Jun Divine Monarch, holding a Divine Axe, revealed a faint sparkle in his gaze towards Chen Mu, compared to the Creation Lineage, the Void Lineage had much fewer Eighth Layer Heavenly Divine Monarchs, those reaching the Eighth Layer Heaven Limit were even scarcer, even externally, his entire Space Seat lacked any Eighth Layer Heaven Limit Void Lineage Divine Monarch.

He very much wanted to engage in a dialectical exchange with an Eighth Layer Heaven Limit Void Divine Monarch, to experience the Void Techniques of the Eighth Layer Heaven Limit.
