Chapter 1502: Chapter 1456: Mu Qing’s Promotion - Cross-Border Array!_2

Just as Xiao Chen emerged from the bottom of the Deep Blue King Lake, dark clouds began to gather above the skies of the Gu Yuan Tribe, rolling and covering a substantial area with every breath.

Crack!

The very next moment, a burst of silver light exploded, like the heavens and earth roaring in anger. Suddenly, a purple-electric silver dragon tore through the void, and feeling the pressure from the thunder tribulation, Xiao Chen was surprised to find that Mu Qing was the one being tested by it.

In just a few short days, Mu Qing had not only stabilized her realm through the refinement of the Blood Bead but also was on the verge of breaking through to the next level.

In just a few breaths, a green shadow appeared out of nowhere above the Gu Yuan Tribe and then swiftly flew out towards the exterior of the tribe.

"It’s the lady who has triggered the heaven and earth thunder tribulation, how is this possible? Lady Mu had only just ascended to a Supreme Warrior a few years ago; could it be that she’s about to advance in her realm again?"

The thunderclouds filled the sky vault and pressed down upon the earth, a sight clearly visible to countless onlookers below, and this was the reason for their shock.

Underneath the dark thunderclouds in the distance, a lotus bloomed, the green shadow emitting a dignified air, with rosy clouds flowing all around it. Every petal of the lotus was shining with divine radiance to its fullest extent.

Boom!

Thunder tribulation is the manifestation of the rules of heaven and earth; it possesses will but no emotions. Accompanied by the roaring of the lightning dragons, a thunderbolt as thick as a heavenly column descended from the skies toward the lotus.

"Quick, strike and shatter the lightning!"

The falling heavenly thunder made the hearts of the many warriors tighten, the destructive aura, even though far away, caused their minds to tremble, involuntarily shouting out loud.

However, Mu Qing did not make a move to resist the heavenly thunder but instead allowed the bolt to strike the lotus. The lightning exploded instantly, and a dense web of electricity seemed to want to shatter the lotus.

The terrifying lightning travelled down through the lotus, pouring straight into Mu Qing’s body, instantly wrapping the once green shadow in electric light!

Xiao Chen stood outside the range of the thunder tribulation, clearly witnessing all of this. Mu Qing was using the lightning to temper her body. As the chaotic voices from below had said, she had not been a Supreme Warrior for long, and now she was advancing again, her foundation might inevitably undergo fluctuations.

If there was no time to cultivate and stabilize her foundation, then she had to resort to an even more terrifying method to quickly forge it. Back when he ascended to the rank of king, Xiao Chen faced four consecutive levels of tribulation without any instability in his foundation, because he was also blessed by the annihilating thunder of heaven and earth.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

As Mu Qing’s bloodline weapon, it now emitted a vast divine radiance, shining like the remaining sacred lotus between the heavens and earth, flickering with tricolor dazzling light, constantly phasing in and out of existence.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The raging thunder would not cease but would continue to intensify, striking down incessantly!

Finally, as the heavenly tribulation continued to fall, Mu Qing, enveloped in countless flashes of lightning, had traces of faint blood qi seeping out through the myriad thunders.

Xiao Chen’s will had long enveloped thousands of miles of the void; he could sense that Mu Qing, surrounded by electric light, was at the peak of her blood qi.

This faint blood qi was the part that had not been completely refined when she was assimilating the Blood Bead, now forced out by the heavenly thunder!

Although this resulted in some of the blood qi being wasted, as long as Mu Qing was safe and her martial arts foundation solidified, Xiao Chen did not care!

This blood qi was also imbued with the All Heavenly Divine Power belonging to Xiao Chen, and even the thunder tribulation could not completely annihilate this dispersed divine power.

Now, with many warriors coming and going to various places within the Gu Yuan Tribe, and occasionally a Supreme Warrior passing by, the thunder tribulation had naturally alarmed them. However, witnessing Xiao Chen approaching the sky vault, none dared get too close to the direction of the thunderclouds!

"This blood qi!"

The blood qi drifting between heaven and earth, when grasped by a human Warrior King, showed an expression of horror in his eyes. Although the blood qi was merely a tiny strand, it was extremely pure, and the vast and mighty aura it contained made him feel oppressed.

With the thunder reverberating through the skies, after withstanding seven thunder tribulations, Mu Qing started to retaliate. The lotus blossomed with a brilliant divine light, collecting all the heavenly thunder falling from the sky into the lotus dais. She then released it to collide and annihilate against the subsequent thunderbolts.

...

When the thunderclouds had dispersed, and the giant lotus vanished from the pinnacle of the sky vault, Mu Qing’s figure reappeared, now back within the Gu Yuan Tribe.

"A second-layer Warrior King!"

Feeling the energy emanating from Mu Qing, and with the reinforcement of the thunder, his energy was extremely concentrated. After exchanging a glance with Xiao Chen, Mu Qing’s figure disappeared again.

Ascending to the second tier of the Kings’ realm, the power within the Blood Bead had hardly been depleted by one-tenth. Mu Qing couldn’t wait to begin enhancing his strength once again.

In the following days, the frequency of the gathering tribulation clouds outside the Gu Yuan Tribe began to increase.

Beast Underworld, .

Stepping into it once more, Xiao Chen felt as if only a day had passed. The dense blood Qi that originally hovered at the zenith of the Sky Vault had not dissipated, instead, it seemed even more somber.

The Royal Beast Race had been keeping quiet. During his absence, there were no movements. Entering the Beast Underworld, Xiao Chen headed straight for the central domain where King Long Deng held sway!

"God King, I need an Cross-Border Array that stretches directly from the Royal Beast Race across the Scorpion Clan, to completely integrate the forces under my command. I also need Your Majesty’s assistance!"

Upon meeting King Long Deng, Xiao Chen didn’t delay and spoke directly. As an elder among the human high ranks, he naturally controlled more resources than Xiao Chen!

"A Cross-Border Array?"

Artful contemplation flashed in King Long Deng’s eyes. Such a vital instrument was naturally in the possession of East Emperor Palace – an absolute strategic asset of the human race. Xiao Chen would evidently not be allowed to possess it, as many things relating to the All Heavenly Arrays had already been allocated away long ago.

"You should go to the Tang Gao Ancient Clan in the Eastern Emperor Domain. Perhaps this ancient clan will have such a grand array, but the cost won’t be small!"

Suddenly, King Long Deng spoke, and as he did so, he tossed a dragon-shaped jade to Xiao Chen.

"Hard to say if those stubborn old fellows will do this old man a favor!"

Instantly, King Long Deng raised his head again and looked towards Xiao Chen, eyes gleaming with insight. He said, "You intend to take down the Scorpion Clan first!"

"Yes, my Fate lies with the Scorpion Clan. Now that chaos reigns among the All Heavens, enhancing strength cannot be delayed. The Scorpion Clan is a must-have target. Therefore, constructing the Cross-Border Array between the two realms will allow the forces under my command in the Royal Beast Race to infiltrate the Scorpion Clan as swiftly as possible, concentrating our superior forces to inflict heavy damage, or even take down the Scorpion People!"

"Your opportunity to enhance your martial physique lies with the Scorpion Clan?"

With Divine Radiance twinkling in his eyes, King Long Deng assessed Xiao Chen up and down. There was a moment of contemplation, and then a burst of brilliance seemed to seek to see right through him!

"Your body, no wonder...!"

Suddenly, with the Divine Radiance descending from his gaze, King Long Deng spoke, "It seems you have realized it yourself."

Xiao Chen understood that King Long Deng had naturally noticed the uniqueness of his body – laws looming over him, attuned to the Heaven and Earth.

"The opportunity you mentioned to enhance your physique, is it related to that ancient Scorpion that has been dead for untold ages?"

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen nodded and said, "I need the flesh and blood of the Scorpion God to enhance the strength of my King Body!"

Having said that, he paused, then continued, "Even if the Scorpion Clan can’t be completely crippled this time, the Scorpion God Blood Bone is a must-have!"

"According to your words, even the Qingmu Emperor Clan has gathered under your command. It seems the small Scorpion Clan has still led you to go through great lengths to construct a Cross-Border Array and deploy the strength you have in the Royal Beast Race. Could it be that the monsterfolk have taken action?"

Instantly, King Long Deng spoke solemnly.

"Indeed, the monsterfolk have already allied with the Scorpion Clan, and creatures from the Netherworld have even appeared!"

What!

King Long Deng was shocked, then exclaimed, "They act so swiftly!"

After a moment of silence, with brilliance flashing in his eyes, King Long Deng scoffed coldly, "In such a case, it is even more crucial to rapidly destroy the Scorpion Clan, to cut off the monsterfolk’s lackey. You go to the Tang Gao Ancient Clan, and I will re-arrange the encirclement around the Royal Beast Race, mobilizing as many troops as possible to join you in your incursion against the Scorpion Clan!!

"Good, I will hurry to the Tang Gao Ancient Clan in the Eastern Emperor Domain!"
