"Explode!"
When the hoarse voice came out from Mu Chen's throat, the black stone tablet in front of him suddenly emitted a dazzling golden light. The golden light did not come from the surface of the stone tablet, but from the depths of the stone tablet …
Anything, no matter how strong it was on the outside, would be relatively fragile on the inside. The black stone tablet in front of them was the same.
Thus, when the golden light exploded, the stone tablet started to tremble violently. The trembling was far more intense than it had ever been before.
Not far away, Han Shan and the rest looked at the black stone tablet that was trembling violently all of a sudden. Their minds were blank because they had also sensed the power that had suddenly exploded from within the stone tablet.
Based on their experience, they naturally understood that the power should be the one that had been absorbed by the stone tablet when Mu Chen had punched it.
However, they did not understand why the power that had been absorbed by the stone tablet would be detonated by Mu Chen.
Under normal circumstances, as long as any power struck the stone tablet, it would be directly absorbed and digested. As the stone tablet was forged from the flesh and blood of the Heaven-devouring Divine Beast, it possessed an extremely terrifying digestive ability. As long as the power did not exceed its upper limit, it would be instantly devoured.
However … why was it that this time, Mu Chen's power was not devoured, but detonated under his control?
Dong!
While their minds were in a daze, the final pitch-black bronze lamp on top of the stone tablet suddenly trembled. In the next instant, Han Shan and the rest's eyes instantly focused as they stared intently at the ninth bronze lamp. Within the pitch-black lamp, tiny sparks actually appeared.
Although the sparks were tiny, they were real. That meant that …
At that moment, Mu Chen was trying to ignite the ninth bronze lamp!
And from the looks of it, he actually did have some chance of success!
However … how was this possible?!
Zong Teng's face was distorted. He had used up all his physical strength.
He had only ignited six bronze lamps. Even someone as strong as Han Shan had only ignited seven bronze lamps.
But now, Mu Chen had directly lit up eight candles. Even.
Right now, he was showing signs of igniting the ninth lamp!
All nine lamps lit up simultaneously!
At the thought of this, Zong Teng felt a chill in his heart. Over the years, many geniuses from various tribes had entered the Land of the Divine Beasts. However, he knew that those who could light up all nine lights at the fourth level of the Body-refining Tower were few and far between. All of the people at this level were godly talents.
His future achievements would be extraordinary.
But now, a mere sixth-grade Supreme Martial Artist had appeared here. Could it be that he was going to achieve this?
Impossible!
Zong Teng gritted his teeth as jealousy rose in his heart. He could barely accept that Han Shan was slightly better than him, but he absolutely could not accept that a mere Grade Six Sovereign human being had surpassed him by so much. Otherwise, what was the point of being a supreme talent of the Heavenly Roc Clan?
A joke?
Zong Teng stared at the ninth bronze lamp, his eyes cold.
It was as if he wanted to extinguish the scattered flames.
Surprisingly, under Zong Teng's stare, the ninth bronze lamp's sparks actually dimmed a little.
As if they were about to dissipate.
When Ink Blade saw this, his eyes froze. It seemed that Mu Chen's strength was also about to be exhausted?
At this rate, he might not be able to light up the ninth bronze lamp.
Just as this thought flashed through Ink Blade's mind, Mu Chen's fist, which had touched the black stone tablet, suddenly shook, and the flesh on his fist crumbled.
Blood flowed out, revealing the eerie white bones.
When the white bones were revealed, Mu Chen's face became ferocious. He roared, "Ignite!"
Boom!
Boom!
As he roared, all the power that he had blasted into the stone tablet directly exploded at this time. Suddenly, there was an endless rumbling sound. As these loud sounds rang out, Ink Blade and the rest were shocked to see that the sparks in the ninth bronze lamp, which were about to dim, actually became bright again, and then began to spread rapidly. Finally, with a poof, it was completely ignited, and the ninth bronze lamp was ignited.
The ninth bronze lamp was successfully ignited!
When the ninth bronze lamp was lit up, both the inside and outside of the Body-refining Tower fell into a strange silence …
Han Shan and the others stared at the burning ninth bronze lamp, their faces filled with horror. Even Ink Blade found it difficult to remain calm.
No one had expected that Mu Chen would actually ignite the ninth bronze lamp.
At this time, there was also a dead silence outside the Body-refining Tower. Everyone's mouths were wide open, and their faces were full of horror as they stared at the light screen on the fourth level. Their gazes were fixed on the ninth bronze lamp.
Liu Qing and the top powers from the Heavenly Roc Clan were in a daze. The burning flame in the ninth lamp was dancing in their eyes, but it brought about an endless chill in their hearts.
Zong Teng, who had ignited six bronze lamps, was already an outstanding talent among the younger generation in the Heavenly Roc Clan. However, this so-called outstanding talent was nothing in front of Mu Chen, who had ignited nine bronze lamps.
Six and nine lamps.
Even people like them, who had never entered the Body-refining Tower, were very clear about the gap between them. Although the stone tablet only recognized the strength of the physical body, they did not doubt that Mu Chen's previous punch could seriously injure even a Grade Seven Sovereign in an instant.
With the strength of a Grade Six Sovereign, one punch could seriously injure a Grade Seven Sovereign.
What kind of a monster was this?
Zong Huo's face was pale. If Mu Chen had directly used this punch when he was fighting with him, even if he did not die, he would have been seriously injured.
When they thought about how they had ridiculed Mu Chen, they felt that their breathing was a little sluggish. When the ninth bronze lamp was ignited, they knew that all the supreme talents here would dim under Mu Chen's light.
"This person … How can he be so terrifying …"
Liu Qing's face was pale as she said with difficulty. At this time, no matter how sharp her tongue was, she did not dare to ridicule anymore.
The strength that Mu Chen had displayed really made her heart palpitate.
This kind of person was too terrifying.
Beside her, the top powers from the Heavenly Roc Clan were also speechless.
They also could not understand how Mu Chen, with the strength of a mere Grade Six Sovereign, could achieve such a terrifying step.
"Brother Mu Chen is too powerful … Much more powerful than Big Brother."
While Liu Qing and the rest were horrified, Mo Ling opened her black eyes wide and looked at the ninth bronze lamp on the light screen in amazement.
A look of admiration appeared on her pretty little face.
She had always thought that Mo Feng was the most outstanding among the younger generation, but now, compared to Mu Chen, there seemed to be a gap.
Jiu You's expression was also in a daze for a while before she gradually recovered. When she heard Mo Ling's words, she could not help but laugh and said, "You sold your big brother out so quickly?
Mu Chen must have used some means to be able to ignite the ninth bronze lamp. Besides, this is just the performance of his physical strength.
It does not mean that Mu Chen is stronger than Han Shan, Mo Feng, and the rest. After all, for them, physical strength does not even make up half of their overall strength. "
Mo Ling nodded when she heard this, but the look of admiration on her little face did not diminish much. This was because at this moment, the figure standing quietly in front of the stone tablet, maintaining the posture of the punch, was so imposing that it was hard to take one's eyes off him.
Jiu You smiled and did not say anything else.
She did not say anything else, but her tensed heart slowly relaxed. She looked at the straight and slender figure in the light screen, as a sense of pride rose in her heart.
Some of the elders in the clan had always looked down on Mu Chen, but if they knew about Mu Chen's results in the Body-refining Tower, they would probably reconsider.
…
In front of the black stone tablet, the nine lamps were ignited together.
The flames danced in Mu Chen's eyes, gradually breaking his empty state of mind. Thus, the heavens and earth appeared clearly in his perception once again.
Immediately after, a sharp pain came from his palm, causing his face to contort.
He slowly retracted his fist, and the golden light on his fist began to surge. However, this time, he had clearly used his strength to the limit, so the muscles in his body were emitting a sense of powerlessness. He realized that he could not even move his feet.
This was a sign that his strength had been completely overdrawn.
Mu Chen pulled the corners of his mouth with difficulty. He could only barely stand in front of the stone tablet, so that his body would not fall down in a sorry state.
Buzz.
While Mu Chen was feeling weak, the black stone tablet in front of him finally moved. On the surface of the tablet, bright red lines appeared, like meridians and blood vessels.
The stone tablet vibrated, and wisps of red chaotic aura seeped out from the stone tablet at this moment.
The chaotic aura contained extremely rich essence energy, and at the same time, it seemed to contain the blood essence of the Heaven-Devouring Divine Beast. Mu Chen only took a breath of this aura, and his bloody fist instantly recovered.
At this moment, the flesh and blood all over his body were boiling, as if they were extremely hungry and thirsty. They wanted to devour the chaotic aura madly!
Mu Chen's eyes lit up. This chaotic aura was almost ten times richer than that of Han Shan, Ink Blade, and Zong Teng!
Was this the reward for igniting the nine bronze lamps? It was indeed so generous that it made one salivate.
Mu Chen was ecstatic. He did not dare to hesitate any longer. He inhaled, and the bright red chaotic aura seeped out from the stone tablet continuously into his body.
While Mu Chen was absorbing the chaotic aura, a cold light flashed in Zong Teng's eyes. He could see that Mu Chen was powerless at this moment. He could kill the latter with one finger!
At this thought, Zong Teng did not hesitate any longer and directly took a step forward.
He wanted to snatch the chaotic aura!
