Mu Yuan gave a faint smile at the cheers.
It seemed he had subtly shown off again.
Zhou Ye was seeing Mu Yuan's skills for the first time and was truly surprised.
However, he quickly regained his composure and said in a low voice:
"The Black Nether Abyss is full of danger! Everyone, be on high alert!"
Everyone responded quickly. Although they were already extremely wary of the Black Nether Abyss, it was clearly not enough.
Having learned a lesson, everyone became even more cautious.
However, avoiding spirit beasts entirely in the perilous Black Nether Abyss was impossible.
Fortunately, although they were ambushed several times later on, no one was lost.
After venturing into the Black Nether Abyss for over half an hour, Mu Feng's team finally encountered people from the Liu Domain in a dark forest that reeked of decay.
The two groups met, and their expressions immediately turned hostile. Spiritual energy quietly surged, and the atmosphere became tense.
"Kid, that thing was indeed taken by you!"
Liu Ming and Liu Mubai were filled with rage when they saw Mu Chen, their eyes turning cold. The former, in particular, was furious; he was the esteemed Third Master of the Liu Domain, yet he had been toyed with by a mere youth.
Seeing Liu Ming's sinister gaze, Mu Yuan just gave a playful smile.
"If you have nowhere to vent your anger, you can beat up your nephew Liu Mubai."
"What do you mean?"
Liu Ming couldn't help but be taken aback.
"Speaking of which, I really have to thank your good nephew, Liu Mubai."
"If it weren't for his ulterior motives, concealing the encounter with Blood Slaughter, Blood Slaughter wouldn't have crossed paths with my little Mu, and that great gift wouldn't have fallen into our Mu Domain's hands."
"What's that saying? Ah yes, 'penny wise, pound foolish'."
Mu Yuan's eyes held a hint of mockery.
Liu Ming suppressed the anger in his heart, turning to Liu Mubai and asking:
"Mubai, is what he said true?"
"I…"
Liu Mubai was speechless.
Mu Yuan wasn't even there that day. How did he know?
"Mubai, you fool!"
Liu Ming was so angry his chest felt tight.
At this moment, a middle-aged man in a green robe at the front of the Liu Domain team, with slightly sunken eyes, glanced at Mu Yuan and Mu Chen. His gaze was like that of a tiger or leopard, making people feel a chill in their hearts.
"Mu Feng, you have two good sons."
The one who could speak to Mu Feng in such a tone was none other than Liu Qingtian, the domain lord of the largest domain in the Northern Spirit Realm.
"You're not bad either, Liu Qingtian, it's just that your two sons are a bit foolish," Mu Feng said, looking at Liu Qingtian coldly.
"It's better not to be too greedy. Good things should be shared, not kept all to yourself. That's not a good idea."
Mu Feng continued, looking at Liu Qingtian coldly.
"Wanting to get your hands on everything, aren't you afraid of being overwhelmed, your Mu Domain?"
The extremely gaunt middle-aged man beside Liu Qingtian glanced at Mu Feng and the others with a cold look.
The spiritual power fluctuations faintly emanating from his body had already reached the Spirit Realm.
He was the second master of the Liu Domain, Liu Zong.
"Eating alone is probably more likely to lead to being overwhelmed."
Zhou Ye also sneered.
Neither side spoke again, but the icy intent in their gazes grew more intense, and waves of spiritual energy quietly surged.
"Attack!"
Liu Qingtian's eyes turned cold, and he let out a low shout.
He unleashed his powerful spiritual energy, which transformed into a giant silver beast.
This beast resembled a giant ape, but its entire body was covered in silver scales. Lightning seemed to flicker across the scales, and its roars carried the sound of thunder.
"That's the Thunder Scale Beast, the spirit beast essence Liu Qingtian refined."
The Thunder Scale Beast was ranked one hundred and thirty-third on the Myriad Beasts Record's Earth Rank. Although it hadn't reached the level of a Heaven Rank spirit beast, it was an extremely top-tier existence among the high-grade spirit beasts.
"Mu Yuan, Mu Chen, both of you, step aside."
Then, Mu Feng let out a hearty laugh.
"Liu Qingtian, let's see who has improved more this past year!"
Violent, crimson spiritual energy surged out, immediately transforming into a fire-red eagle. The eagle's eyes were extremely sharp, its wings like dragon wings. Its sharp talons were also covered in fiery red dragon scales, exuding a powerful aura.
"Is this the essence of the Dragonflame Eagle that Dad refined?"
Mu Yuan and Mu Chen, who had retreated to the side, both stared curiously at the fire eagle.
This was a true celestial beast, ranked eighty-fifth on the Myriad Beasts Record's Earthly Rankings, far more powerful than the Thunder Scale Beast.
Bang!
Two colossal figures clashed fiercely in mid-air, the violent spiritual energy impact shattering the surrounding towering trees.
No one expected a major battle to erupt so soon after entering the Black Nether Abyss.
Seeing their domain masters engage, both sides wasted no time, their eyes filled with murderous intent as they roared and charged forward.
"Zhou Ye, you're mine!"
Liu Zong rushed towards Zhou Ye, emerald light radiating from him. Behind him, a slightly ethereal giant beast took shape.
It was a giant scorpion, entirely green, with a faint fragrance emanating from its body, indicating it possessed potent poison.
It was the Jade Poison Demon Scorpion, ranked 204th on the Myriad Beasts Record's Earthly Ranking, and the spirit essence he had refined.
"Hmph!"
Zhou Ye snorted coldly, the spiritual energy behind him flashing, transforming into a giant rhino that appeared deep yellow. On the back of the rhino, covered in thick scales, it was as if it was carrying a small mountain, and it fiercely charged toward Liu Zong.
The Mountain Spirit Rhinoceros, ranked one hundred and eightieth on the Myriad Beasts Record's Earth Ranking.
Bang!
The forces of both sides were completely locked in battle, with bursts of wild spiritual energy constantly erupting, and killing intent spreading.
Liu Ming was eager to kill Mu Chen, so he naturally attacked him first.
However, he was blocked by Duan Wei, who couldn't help but sneer during their exchange:
"The late Spirit Wheel Stage is actually attacking a Spirit Movement Stage cultivator, does the Liu Domain have any shame?"
Both of them were at the peak of the late Spirit Wheel Stage cultivation, and for a while, they fought indecisively.
Liu Mubai also harbored a deep-seated hatred for Mu Yuan, his gaze never leaving him. Seeing Mu Yuan retreat from the battlefield and stand on the treetop, a murderous glint flashed in his eyes as he silently pursued him.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, a sharp gust of wind swept in from a distance. Mu Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and with a tap of his toes against the ground, his body shot backward.
He then looked up and saw Liu Mubai staring at him menacingly from the tree trunk ahead.
"You people from the Liu Domain are always up to sneaky tricks."
Mu Yuan wasn't surprised by Liu Mubai's sneak attack; he merely chuckled, a hint of mockery playing on his lips.
Isn't this a tradition of the Liu Domain?
"This isn't the Northern Spirit Academy. Even if I kill you, there won't be any trouble."
Liu Mubai stared coldly at Mu Yuan, his eyes filled with ice, and he spoke with a chilling tone.
