The Great Ruler (Web Novel)-Chapter 1408 - Pagoda City

Half a month later, the higher hierarchy of the Mu Abode has gathered in the hall.

Mu Chen held his hands behind his back and turned around after a long time, looking at Mandala and the Profound Sky Ancestor, then stood before the whole higher hierarchy.

“While I’m away, Mandala will take charge. If there’s anyone who dares to challenge us, the Profound Sky Ancestor will be responsible for them.” Mu Chen smiled towards the two of them.

The Profound Sky Ancestor smiled and cupped his fists. “Abode Ruler, rest assured. Since I’m the Elder of the Mu Abode now, I will fulfil my responsibility.”

Mandala lightly nodded her head and looked at Mu Chen. “Be careful.”

Although Mu Chen was already a Heavenly Sovereign, and even she had to look up to him, she knew that his target this time was one of the five Ancient Clans in the Great Thousand World.

The foundation of the clan was unimaginable, and even ordinary Heavenly Sovereigns would be fearful when facing them.

Mu Chen nodded his head with a smile. “Don’t worry, I know my limits.”

How could he not know the strength of the Ancient Buddha Clan? But he already had plans for this trip.

“Let’s go.” After handling all the matters, he turned and spoke to Ling Xi and Long Xiang. The two of them have stayed in the Ancient Buddha Clan for a period of time, and with them leading the way, it could save him some trouble.

The two of them nodded their heads upon hearing his words. The three of them came to the Transportation Spiritual Array and entered before a radiance gradually gathered over…

The radiance covered his sight as he raised his head and looked at the sky. “Ancient Buddha Clan… here I come.”

From the first day he stepped out of the Northern Spiritual Realm, he has been working hard for this day. God-knows how much effort and tempering he had gone through…

However, his hard work was all paid off. The immature youth that stepped out of the Northern Spiritual Realm back then has reached the Heavenly Sovereign Realm today, stepping into the height of the Great Thousand World.

And now… it’s time for him to resolve all the past grudges.

Dazzling spiritual light gathered over and the three of them disappeared in the next instant.

…

The Pagoda Continent, one of the six supercontinents in the Great Thousand World.

As a supercontinent, there weren’t any forces here except for the Ancient Buddha Clan that dominated the entire continent.

By naming the entire continent “pagoda”, one can tell that the Ancient Buddha Clan has treated the entire continent as their own territory. But despite that dominance, they did not attract any unhappiness, since everyone knew that the Ancient Buddha Clan was one of the oldest supreme forces in the Great Thousand World, with the strength to rule the entire continent.

A majestic city stood in the centre of the Pagoda Continent. This was named Pagoda City, the heart of this continent.

As the heart of the continent, the Pagoda City never lacked in population, and recently, the population here has even reached the peak over the past decade.

All the forces were gathered here with the intention of watching the Bloodline Competition of the Ancient Buddha Clan…

There was a massive hill at the centre of the city, with a colossal plaza. Countless streaks of light descended from the sky to the plaza.

“What power, the rallying of the Ancient Buddha Clan is truly unimaginable.” Three silhouettes stood at the border of this plaza with the leading youth smiling.

They were Mu Chen, Ling Xi, and Long Xiang, who had spent half a month traveling over from the Greatlaw Continent.

Mu Chen sighed and sensed the majestic fluctuation from the silhouettes that descended from the sky. All of them were in the Heavenly Sovereign Realm.

In other parts of the Great Thousand World, all of them could be tyrants, but they’re mediocre here.

“Anyone that can be invited by the Ancient Buddha Clan is a top supreme force in the Great Thousand World, and there are also some weaker forces coming over to build a relationship with the Ancient Buddha Clan.” Ling Xi said.

“I’m afraid that our Mu Abode can be classified as one of those weaker forces, right?” Mu Chen smiled. The Mu Abode had just stepped into the category of a supreme force, and in terms of foundation, they’re much weaker than many forces here.

Long Xiang snorted, “If the Mistress is rescued, then the Mu Abode would have a Saint Heavenly Sovereign. In the entire Great Thousand World, only the forces with such existences could be considered the pinnacle.”

Mu Chen smiled and shook his head, before looking at the massive mountain. There was a spatial door that flickered. That door led to the Pagoda Realm. It was the place where the main clan resided.

That’s also considered the heart of the Ancient Buddha Clan.

All the rest in the continent could only be considered as branches, and god-knows how many people were trying to be acknowledged by the main clan.

Massive boats could be seen outside the gate, shuttling between the realms. They would occasionally descend onto the plaza to receive guests into the Pagoda Realm.

There’s a massive Spiritual Array protecting the Pagoda Realm from the outside, and only those on the boats can shuttle through it. Otherwise, even a Heavenly Sovereign wouldn’t be able to barge their way in.

“The Ancient Buddha Clan’s threshold is truly high.” Ling Xi swept her gaze over and furrowed her brows.

That’s because, according to the rules, only those with an invitation can board the boats, and those without would have the wait till the end.

Although this would make those supreme forces that came by themselves unhappy, they could only suppress their unhappiness.

“Let’s wait here, then. We’re not invited by them, anyway. If they knew our identity, I’m afraid we wouldn’t be able to enter this threshold.” Mu Chen smiled and remained calm. However, the depths of his eyes coldly flickered.

“Young Master, is it really appropriate for us to come to the Ancient Buddha Clan this way?” Long Xiang hesitated before he asked in a concerned tone. After all, they knew the attitude that the Ancient Buddha Clan had for Mu Chen, and if they came to know his identity, Mu Chen would certainly not be able to escape, even if he’s a Heavenly Sovereign.

Mu Chen smiled. “Rest assured, I’m not here to be apprehended.”

Seeing Mu Chen’s calmness, Long Xiang felt a little relieved, since he knew Mu Chen’s character. Without preparations, Mu Chen would surely not dive into danger.

As they spoke, light flew over and descended from the sky, into the plaza.

As the radiance disappeared, a charming silhouette stood out, attracting countless gazes.

That silhouette wore a blazing-red dress that outlined her figure, attracting everyone’s attention. Especially her charming features, which emanated charm from every action, causing hearts to tremble.

Despite her charm, her gaze was cold. However, pairing it with her charm, it gave off a peculiar style.

Looking at that lady, many Heavenly Sovereigns that were used to waves couldn’t help peeking a few more glances.

But when their gazes saw the fire symbol on her dress, their hearts trembled and they turned their gazes away. That symbol represented another supreme force that wasn’t any weaker than the Ancient Buddha Clan…

The Endless Fire Territory.

“I never expected that the Endless Fire Territory would also send their representatives over… They’ve never participated in the Ancient Buddha Clan’s Bloodline Competitions in the past, I wonder what caused the sudden change of mind.” Someone whispered.

That charming silhouette paid no attention to the surrounding gazes and led the party, walking towards the centre.

When the attendant of the Ancient Buddha Clan saw her, his gaze changed with respect as he swiftly came up.

But just when they were about to meet, the lady swept her gaze around before stopping with an astonished smile on her face.

Everyone watched as she ignored the attendant and walked towards a youth by the border.

“Mu Chen, you’re here.”

Mu Chen looked at the lady with a smile that emerged from his heart on his face. “Xiao Xiao, it has been a long time.”

That lady was Xiao Xiao, whom he’s not met for a long time. This time, she came representing the Endless Fire Territory.

When she saw Mu Chen, her cold face had turned gentle and vivid. She pursed her lips before taking a step out and revealed a person behind her.

It was an old man donned in white robes, looking exceptionally amiable with an abstruse gaze that emanated wisdom.

Holding onto that old man’s arm, Xiao Xiao smiled. “Mu Chen, this is my Grandmaster, the Master of my father.”

Mu Chen’s heart trembled upon hearing that as he looked at the old man with shock. The well respected Flame Emperor is a disciple taught by this old man?!

His heart trembled with shock before he wore a solemn face and bowed towards the old man. “Junior Mu Chen, pays his greetings to Senior.”
