Chapter 1005 - Mu Chen makes his move
Before the black stone tablet, Mu Chen quietly stood, looking at the innumerable prints on the tablet. Vaguely, he could sense the countless experts that stood before this place, gathering the strength of their physiques and throwing their strongest moves.
It was said that in ancient times, there were experts that had lit up all nine of the bronze lamps, which made Mu Chen somewhat startled. Naturally, he knew that those that had lit up the ninth lamp were those that far exceeded them in strength. It was so much so that there was a possibility that they could've been Eighth or Ninth Grade Sovereigns.
This was in addition to body the refining ability of the Divine Beast Origin in the ancient times, which caused the experts in the Divine Beast Origin to all possess powerful strengths. So Mu Chen did not doubt that they could light up the ninth bronze lamp.
Furthermore, since the Divine Beast Origin shattered, the amount of those geniuses that came here to light up the nine lamps in the fourth level were few in number.
Furthermore, those people were all extreme monsters that even the geniuses of the other clans were dull before them.
As for lighting the nine lamps, Mu Chen was clear about how difficult it was to achieve it. Even someone as powerful as Han Shan could barely manage to light up the seventh lamp with all his strength, with a considerable gap towards the ninth lamp.
Therefore, Mu Chen couldn't estimate how far he could go. But regardless of anything, he had to make an all-out effort!
That's because he could make a breakthrough to the second level of the Dragon-Phoenix Physique in this Body Refining Pagoda!
Huff!
Once Mu Chen gradually calmed down, he took a deep breath and his fist tightly clenched under all the gazes.
A faint golden light started to blossom from Mu Chen's body, dying him in gold, as if he was made of actual gold itself. As time passed, it grew even denser, as if he was an ancient gold statue.
Circulating his Dragon-Phoenix Physique, he had gradually drawn all the strength in his body. This time, he wanted to push the Dragon-Phoenix Physique to his limits!
Not far away, Zong Teng, Han Shan and Mo Feng looked at Mu Chen, before they contracted their eyes. That's because they could sense an unmovable sensation coming from Mu Chen.
Mu Chen gave them the feeling that he was like a majestic mountain that stood in the heavens and earth.
Once he gradually circulated the Dragon-Phoenix Physique to the limit, the True Dragon and Phoenix Tattoos on Mu Chen's arms gradually wriggled. Thereafter, a draconic roar and phoenix cry resounded from his body, trembling his flesh and causing the strength in Mu Chen's body to sharply rise.
The draconic roar and phoenix cry grew more brilliant and more urgent and Mu Chen's body trembled as it boiled. Especially the True Dragon and Phoenix Tattoos on his arms, they boiled as if they were made of hot iron.
Mu Chen's eyes blossomed with even more gold light and his breathing was growing even heavier. That's because the energy in his body had been focused to a terrifying degree. It was even stronger than when he heavily wounded Lu Sui!
Han Shan and the other two had their eyes gradually turn grave as they looked at the silhouette constantly spewing golden light. The golden light wasn't Spiritual Energy, it was the sign of Mu Chen focusing his blood and aura to the limits. It's just that they were somewhat startled by the fact that the lustre that was emitting from Mu Chen was extremely bizarre and it seemed to contain a pressure that even made them feel oppressed.
"I never expected that a Sixth Grade Sovereign could gather such a terrifying force..." Han Shan's sharp gaze stared at Mu Chen. Although he had not underestimated Mu Chen, he also did not expect the latter to be so outstanding. He had a premonition that Mu Chen's move might surpass Zong Teng and Mo Feng, and might even... reach his level!
This human is not simple.
At this moment, Mu Chen could no longer sense their grave looks. As the blood boiled even more in his body, he had realised that the commotion outside had been blocked out. It's as if he was the sole person left in this world.
This state made the energy in Mu Chen's body reach the pinnacle.
Substantial golden light gushed from Mu Chen's eyes and the energies in his body had completely reached the peak. It was so much so that even he vaguely felt a stinging pain from his flesh and blood.
It was the peak of his state.
Since he had already reached his peak, then it's time to make a move!
There weren't any ripples on Mu Chen's face. It's as if he had forgotten everything, then threw his right punch forth.
In that instant when he threw his punch forth, the True Dragon and Phoenix Tattoos wriggled and the both of them entrenched onto Mu Chen's right arm, before a golden light was emitted. Golden dragon and phoenix claws stretched out and enveloped Mu Chen's fist.
Roar!
At that moment when he threw a punch forth, the brilliant draconic roar and phoenix cry couldn't be covered by Mu Chen's body and had directly rippled forth, resounding across the ancient plaza.
At this moment, the bodies of Han Shan, Mo Feng and Zong Teng froze and they could sense a surging, terrifying oppression violently dominating from Mu Chen's body.
The pressure even made their bloodlines tremble.
It was a bloodline suppression!
The suppression made the three of them feel disbelief, since their bloodlines belonged to the higher tiers, considered to be the top amongst the Spiritual Beast Realms. But right now, their bloodlines felt suppressed by the might that came out of Mu Chen?
That was only possible to the bloodlines of those Super Divine Beasts!
As the three of them made silent exclamations, Mu Chen's golden fist, which entrenched the True Dragon and Phoenix, smacked forth, breaking the wind as it slammed against the black stone tablet with golden fluctuations.
Boom!
In that instant of impact, Han Shan and the rest could sense that the entire ancient plaza had trembled. It was so much so that even the extremely sturdy black stone tablet had lightly trembled.
Han Shan and the rest had fixed their gazes at the point of collision of Mu Chen's fist and the tablet, before their pupils contracted.
When the golden ripples spread out, Mu Chen's fist was instantly torn and blood spewed out. It was so much so that white bones could be vaguely seen, which displayed how powerful Mu Chen's fist was. It's to the point that even his physical body couldn't bear the shock wave and his fist tore.
However, when blood splattered from his fist and white bones could be seen, Mu Chen showed no signs of pulling his fist back. On the contrary, he roared and all the power in his body had violently gushed out from his fist.
Golden ripples fluctuated from Mu Chen's fist and swept on the surface of the tablet.
Cracks had also quietly opened on the ancient ground below.
Buzz! Buzz!
Under the horrifying impact, Han Shan and the rest could instantly see flames constantly igniting on the bronze lamps.
One bronze lamp after another was swiftly being ignited!
In just a single moment, six bronze lamps had been instantly lit up!
When the sixth bronze lamp ignited, sparks swiftly gathered on the seventh lamp before it ignited under countless startled gazes.
"The seventh bronze lamp is actually lit up!" Outside the pagoda, exclamations of surprise resounded and everyone had disbelief on their faces. That's because Mu Chen had lit up the seventh lamp even faster than Han Shan!
Han Shan's face had changed at this moment as well, then he fixed his gaze on the eighth lamp shortly after. Although it was pitch-black, he could vaguely sense that Mu Chen's strength had not fully faded.
Under Han Shan's gaze, darkness lasted in the eighth lamp for a brief moment, before sparks finally appeared...
Mo Feng and Zong Teng had also seen the sparks and they both immediately took in a deep breath. Mu Chen's strength even caused sparks to appear in the eighth lamp?!
This was something that not even Han Shan could achieve!
Drip!
Blood constantly dripped down from Mu Chen's fist and white bones could be seen. However, he remained unmoving, as if golden ripples were still fluctuating from the golden fist that had charged against the black stone tablet.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
In the eighth lamp, the sparks that were initially weak started to increase, the second spark... third spark...
One spark after another gradually appeared and the eyes of Han Shan and the rest gradually widened. Thereafter, when it was gathered to an extent, it had ignited and a flame blazed.
The eighth bronze lamp was lit up!
The faces of Han Shan and the rest had slightly froze. They were stunned, looking at the ignited eighth lamp before looking at the boulder-like youthful silhouette before the stone tablet with shock in their hearts and couldn't say a word.
No one had imagined that Mu Chen could actually light up the eighth bronze lamp!
Just how horrifying was the power contained in that fist?!
Probably even they would have to use all their strength to face that power, right?
Outside the Body Refining Pagoda, the whole area was silent when the eighth bronze lamp was lit up...
However, while they were shocked beyond words, Mu Chen, who was before the black stone tablet, had golden colours mixed in his eyes. The pain that came from his fist was practically ignored by him. That's because he had felt empty after exerting that sort of power.
But not knowing why, his instincts told him that it was not the end!
He could vaguely sense that he could still control the force in the black stone tablet, like a hidden energy.
If that energy exploded, then it would cause an even more terrifying destructive force.
Who knows, he might even be able to light up the ninth bronze lamp!
A golden light gushed from both of his eyes and he no longer hesitated, pressing his fist on the stone tablet with a hoarse voice that came out from his throat.
"Explode!"
