"Nine-tailed Raccoon, what’s this about, protecting me?" Mu Chen’s expression changed as he spoke.
"You are the person chosen by the master, I cannot watch you be annihilated." The Nine-tailed Raccoon said seriously.
"So, you mean, you’ll protect me from now on?" Mu Chen asked.
"That’s one way to understand it." The Nine-tailed Raccoon replied indifferently.
"I’m happy to be protected, but what about your strength?" Mu Chen frowned as he spoke.
"My power has been sealed, but the master said that by devouring this radiant energy, I can also return to my original state." The Nine-tailed Raccoon blinked and moved towards the radiant energy, absorbing all of the energy with a powerful suction force.
"If you’re this terrifying with your power sealed, what about when it’s unsealed?" Mu Chen became excited, thrilled at the prospect of such a powerful ally.
Soon after devouring the radiant energy, the Nine-tailed Raccoon returned to Mu Chen’s side, revealing a slight evil grin.
"Your aura, it’s terrifying." Mu Chen’s complexion changed; he had only felt such an aura from the old man before.
"Kid, when you grow up, you’ll be more terrifying than me," said the Nine-tailed Raccoon seriously.
"Then let’s get out of here quickly!" Mu Chen’s expression changed as he spoke.
"Before we leave, I want to ask you, where’s the Emperor? Isn’t he supposed to protect you?" The Nine-tailed Raccoon’s expression changed as he spoke.
"What Emperor?" Mu Chen frowned, not understanding what the Nine-tailed Raccoon was talking about.
"You don’t know the Emperor?"
"Shit, the old man didn’t tell you, and this isn’t easy to explain now. We’ll talk about it later!" The Nine-tailed Raccoon’s expression changed as he spoke.
"What are you talking about? Why do I feel confused?" Mu Chen asked earnestly.
"However, kid, I should remind you that I’ve been exposed. You’re definitely going to be in grave danger in the future, so, you must become stronger and stronger, and also, master the Immortal Spirit Eighteen Needles as soon as possible."
"Nine-tailed Raccoon, did you come to save me, or to harm me?" Mu Chen asked seriously.
"Forget it, why bother with so much? Let’s leave quickly." The Nine-tailed Raccoon said, disappearing in an instant.
"Alright! Let’s leave." Mu Chen helplessly knelt to the Nine-tailed Raccoon.
Afterward, the Nine-tailed Raccoon and Mu Chen quickly made their way to the Martial Arts Arena.
The Martial Arts Arena was located in a deserted area, shielded by a protective barrier to prevent its discovery.
The arena was vast and made of ice. Moreover, guarding this place was the legendary Ice God, an ancient deity from Yun Country. Why the Ice God was willing to appear here, content to serve as the Guardian of this place, was unknown to the outside world; the truth was only known by the powerful ones of Yun Country.
Mu Chen and the Nine-tailed Raccoon arrived soon after, and upon their arrival, the Nine-tailed Raccoon found a spot to sit down, while Mu Chen stepped onto the Martial Arts Arena, facing the Water God and the Death God with rising battle intent.
Apart from the Heavenly God, Thunder God, Moon God, and Sea God, there were many others present, such as Tank, Holy Monk, War Wolf, War God, all spectators witnessing this match. The clash between the twin gods and the Evil God was a rare event not seen for years, drawing many who had heard the news to appear.
"Interesting." At that moment, Tian Peng emerged in a corner, stating lightly.
"I wonder who is stronger or weaker, and now with the appearance of the Nine-tailed Raccoon, is this the sign of another upheaval?" Tian Peng mused.
For a time, numerous auras descended upon this place, all belonging to deities who had not been seen for a very long time.
The arrival of these gods also stirred up excitement, as they chatted and mingled with each other.
"Hasn’t it started yet?"
"Where is the Ice God?"
"Ice God, you old fart, hurry up and come out."
For a time, some people spoke impatiently.
"Here he comes." At this moment, a giant made of cold ice appeared, with an old man with white hair sitting on the giant’s head, step by step, he arrived at the Martial Arts Arena.
"Damn, this Ice God, it seems like he’s gotten even better at comprehending the Cold Ice Secret Technique, to be able to create such a lifeless giant, it’s shocking." The appearance of the Ice God set off a buzz of discussion among the crowd.
"Ice God, long time no see." The Water God expressed joy upon seeing the Ice God.
"Water God, I mind my own business and you mind yours; why are you coming to me for?" The Ice God seemed somewhat annoyed upon seeing the Water God.
"Ice God, can’t we stop holding grudges? I’m just here to kill an arrogant person, that’s all."
"Ice God, less nonsense, hurry up and bring out the life-and-death agreement so I can quickly finish off this Evil God who doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth." The Death God’s face changed as he spoke.
"Kill me, how interesting. If you have the strength, you’re welcome to try." Mu Chen said with a cold laugh, as his killing intent rose.
"Two against one, how interesting. Are you the Evil God, the one who killed Apollo and brought honor to Yun Country?"
"Yes, that’s correct. The Evil God has seen the Ice God, and I’ve long respected your formidable strength." Mu Chen said respectfully.
"Hmm, not bad, you’ve got some manners, but have you really thought this through? You against two of us?"
"I’ve thought it through." Mu Chen said with a smile.
"Then let’s begin! You all sign and start the great battle!" The Ice God said, and a piece of paper flew out, appearing in front of everyone.
Subsequently, Mu Chen and the Death God both signed the life-and-death agreement.
"Is it finally starting?"
"In the past few days, the Evil God was fighting on all fronts in the Divine Rankings, and now he is going to fight two gods. Just who is this Evil God, really? I really want to know who’s behind his training."
"Evil God go kick their asses."
"Don’t bully the Evil God and Water God too much, Death God."
For a time, everyone was shouting out loud.
However, only three people were worried for Mu Chen: the Sea God, the Moon God, and the Nine-tailed Raccoon. Although Mu Chen was powerful, these two gods had lived for a very long time and were gods who had not reincarnated. Their strength might have been depleted during the great battle, but they still possessed unfathomable power, which made people worry.
"Evil God, it’s too late to regret now. Your life is ours to take." The Water God’s killing intent rose, and a blue longsword appeared in his hand, with its Sword Qi being extremely intimidating and terrifying.
"Today is the day you die." The Death God said as a scythe appeared, sharp and gleaming.
"That’s the Water God Sword and the Death God Scythe, both Divine Artifacts! The Evil God is in danger."
"If you all have Divine Artifacts, then I can’t be left behind." Mu Chen said, as eight golden orbs condensed out of thin air, with his body enveloped in red Energy, locking onto the two.
"These are the Sun God’s golden orbs, also Divine Artifacts! Now this is going to be interesting."
"Damn, a battle of Divine Artifacts, looks like we’ll need to reinforce the area." The Ice God’s expression changed, and a cold aura surged out, freezing everything like a world of ice, as cold ice slowly spread outward from him, expanding across the surrounding area.
