Sunlight descended from the sky. However, when it landed on the top of the tower, the entire ancient stone tower seemed to have been set ablaze. Layers of light circulated on the surface of the tower, while an extremely ancient and frightening ripple slowly awakened from the stone tower like a ferocious beast from ancient times.
When everyone sensed the fluctuation, they couldn't help narrowing their eyes with shock surfacing in the depths of their eyes. Such a fluctuation was truly a little shocking.
But the shock only lasted for a brief moment before it disappeared and was filled with dense expectations and ecstasy. That's because this fluctuation represented that the Primordial Body Refining Pagoda was about to open.
Rumble!
Under everyone's heated gazes, a deep sound came from the Primordial Body Refining Pagoda. Thereafter, the ground outside the pagoda slowly cracked and ten ancient stone platforms rose from the ground.
The stone platforms were covered in cryptic runes that flickered with a faint lustre. Vaguely, one could see fine lines stretching out, which were connected to the Primordial Body Refining Pagoda.
When the ten stone platforms appeared, the experts in this region burst out in exclamations. Jiu You's brows had also knitted together. "There are actually only ten Receiving Stages in the Primordial Body Refining Pagoda this time?"
"Receiving Stages?
What do you mean? "Mu Chen asked in puzzlement as he looked at the experts that were in an uproar.
"These Receiving Stages represent the quota to enter the Primordial Body Refining Pagoda. Each Receiving Stage can only receive one person, so that also means that only ten people can enter the Body Refining Pagoda this time."
Jiu You helplessly said, "It's said that there were twenty Receiving Stages previously, but I never expected that there would be less than half of them this time."
Mu Chen squinted his eyes.
He had also understood the meaning behind Jiu You's words. With the decrease of the Receiving Stages, the quota to enter the Body Refining Pagoda would also be rarer.
But right now, there were so many experts eyeing them.
If he wanted to obtain a Receiving Platform, he would have to pay an even greater price.
Mu Chen swept his gaze around and sensed that the atmosphere had suddenly tensed up. Cold lights flickered in the eyes of the experts from the various Spiritual Beast Clans as they stared at the people from the other clans with killing intent surging in their eyes.
Ten Receiving Platforms stood quietly around the Ancient Body Refining Pagoda. However, as they appeared …
On the contrary, the Spiritual Beast Clans, which were initially eager to give it a try, quietened down. But under the silence, a dense aura gathered.
Mu Chen had also lightly knitted his brows. Although he did not have any wishful thinking that he could easily enter the Primordial Body Refining Pagoda, judging from the current situation, he could only stand firmly on the ten Receiving Stages after being dyed red with blood.
"Since there are only ten Receiving Platforms, I'm afraid we'll have to change our plan." Jiu You looked at Mu Chen and Mo Feng.
He whispered.
"Out of the ten, it's impossible for us to occupy four.
At that time, even if we succeed, I'm afraid that it will be a disaster and not a blessing. "
Mu Chen, Mo Feng and Mo Ling nodded their heads. If the four of them occupied one each, then the geniuses of the other Spiritual Beast Clans would definitely be envious. At that time, they might even gang up on them. At that time, they might not even be able to occupy one and would have to retreat in a sorry state.
Therefore, they had to make a choice at this time.
"I suggest that we lock onto two Receiving Platforms.
If two of us can enter the Body Refining Pagoda, it will be the best outcome. "
"Two?" Mu Chen briefly pondered.
If that's the case, then only two of them could enter the Primordial Body Refining Pagoda to obtain the opportunity, while the other two could only wait outside.
But in that case, it wouldn't be fair to the other two. After all, no one wanted to give up such an opportunity.
"I suggest that Mo Feng and Mu Chen seize the platforms, while Mo Ling and I will assist from the side. I wonder if you guys have any other opinions?" Jiu You cast a glance at the three of them and lightly smiled.
Mu Chen was stunned when she heard her words, before feeling touched in her heart. That's because, according to normal circumstances, she and Mo Feng should be the ones seizing the platforms. After all, the two of them had stepped into the Seventh Grade Sovereign Realm, so they should have more confidence in seizing the platforms. But Jiu You had given her quota to Mu Chen, clearly intending to give the opportunity in the Primordial Body Refining Pagoda to Mu Chen.
She clearly knew that the opportunity in the Primordial Body Refining Pagoda was extremely important to Mu Chen.
Mo Feng and Mo Ling were also startled, before the former cast a glance at Mu Chen and faintly said, "The Elders have all said that you will be the one making the decision. Since you have made this decision, then Mo Ling and I will not have any objections."
Although Mu Chen's cultivation was only at the Sixth Grade Sovereign Realm, Mo Feng vaguely knew that the former had concealed quite a bit of his strength through the past few days of contact. Therefore, he did not object to Jiu You's suggestion. Furthermore, with this decision, Jiu You had given her opportunity to Mu Chen, so there was nothing he could say.
"Hehe, Big Brother Mu Chen, you have to work hard." Mo Ling chuckled.
"Thanks."
Mu Chen cupped his fists towards the two of them and said with gratitude. As for Jiu You, there was no need for such pleasantries with their relationship. He had already decided in his heart that he would definitely help Jiu You obtain the Primordial Undying Bird's Divine Blood in the Divine Beast Origin to perfect her bloodline.
When Mu Chen and the rest came to an agreement, the atmosphere in this region was still in a deadlock. But everyone knew that this deadlock wouldn't last for long.
Just as everyone had expected, a few minutes after the deadlock passed, the man named Han Shan of the Demonic Rhino Clan slowly walked out and swept his ferocious gaze over, before his sharp voice resounded, "Since everyone doesn't want to take the lead, then let my Demonic Rhino Clan do it!"
As soon as his voice faded, his figure shot out and heavily landed on a Receiving Stage. His ferocious gaze swept across the area as a ferocious aura erupted. He was like an ancient ferocious rhinoceros that was on a rampage.
"I, Han Shan, will be taking this Receiving Stage!
If anyone isn't convinced, then come and fight! "
Come and fight! "He stood on the receiving platform and said coldly.
Han Shan stood with his hands behind his back, looking extremely domineering.
This caused the expressions of the surrounding geniuses to change.
Everyone here was an elite amongst the younger generations of their clans and were usually prideful. So they naturally wouldn't be so easily frightened by Han Shan.
Thus, when Han Shan finished his words, a cold bark resounded, "Hmph, I have long heard that you, Han Shan, are domineering. Today, my Demonic Elephant Clan will come and give it a try!"
Boom!
A towering silhouette descended from the sky and landed on the Receiving Stage that Han Shan was on.
Instantly, the ground violently trembled.
Everyone directed their gazes over and saw that giant silhouette covered in bizarre runes. As the lustre blossomed, it looked as if it possessed an earth-shattering power.
This person was wielding a pitch-black giant rod. That giant rod seemed to be incomparably heavy. Just by touching the ground, cracks had already appeared on the ground, which was clearly not ordinary.
"It's actually the genius of the Demonic Elephant Clan, Xu Kun.
It's said that he has also stepped into the Seventh Grade Sovereign Realm with the strength to pull mountains. Heh.
If the two clans fight, I'm afraid that the heavens and earth will crumble. "
The appearance of that person had instantly caused a commotion. They must have recognised that this person wasn't an ordinary person. It was no wonder why he dared to face Han Shan.
"The Demonic Elephant Clan?"
Han Shan narrowed his eyes with an indifferent expression. He did not speak any nonsense and stomped his feet, causing the ground to crack.
A torrential ominous aura swept out as his silhouette burst forth like a primordial ominous rhino.
A ferocious attack was unleashed.
When Xu Kun saw this scene, he coldly snorted.
He coldly snorted, but he wasn't afraid. The pitch-black rod in his hand swept out, shattering space and heavily smashed towards Han Shan.
Boom!
A boundless and violent Spiritual Energy shock wave instantly burst out from the Receiving Stage.
The battle between the two of them had completely torn apart the deadlock in this region. The various experts couldn't be bothered to wait any longer and powerful Spiritual Energies soared into the sky. In the next instant, several silhouettes burst out towards the other Receiving Stages.
"Let's go!"
When Jiu You saw this scene, he had also barked. In the next instant, the four of them had burst out and split into two batches, landing on the two closest Receiving Stages.
When Mu Chen's silhouette appeared on the Receiving Stage, he did not move under everyone's startled gazes. It was so much so that even his eyes were slightly closed, standing on the Receiving Stage like a statue.
Jiu You stood on the Receiving Stage with boundless Spiritual Energy sweeping out from his body. Purple flames rose with a terrifyingly high temperature, which had even caused the surrounding air to evaporate. The domineering flames had caused many experts to raise their eyebrows, causing those experts that were trying to snatch the Receiving Stage to hesitate.
"That brat's cultivation is only at the Sixth Grade Sovereign Realm and he actually dares to occupy a Receiving Stage. He's truly courting death!"
"That brat seems to be a human?
How did he get into the Divine Beast Origin? "
"I have no idea what that Jiu You Sparrow Clan is trying to do. They're actually trying to help that brat obtain a Receiving Stage?"
"Hmph, he only knows how to rely on the protection of a woman, how useless!"
"… …"
Many gazes were gathered here, before mocking voices resounded. However, facing those disdainful voices, Mu Chen still had his eyes squinted and did not move.
"Jiu You is actually trying to help that human brat obtain a Receiving Stage?"
Not far away, the few people of the Sky Roc Clan, as well as the woman named Liu Qing, were startled at this scene. Shortly after, she mocked, "Jiu You is truly daydreaming. Not to mention that brat's cultivation is only at the Sixth Grade Sovereign Realm, it's impossible for him to guard a Receiving Stage. Even if he enters the Body Refining Pagoda, it will be hard for him to obtain any harvest. What a fool."
"Furthermore, does she really think that she can protect that kid with her own strength?"
Standing beside her, the man named Zong Teng indifferently cast a glance at Jiu You, before calmly saying under Liu Qing's joyful gaze, "I will make a move and chase Jiu You away. You deal with that human brat. My Sky Roc Clan will be taking this Receiving Stage."
"A mere Sixth Grade Sovereign is nothing to worry about."
A red-robed man grinned as a ferocious light flickered in his eyes. A powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuation burst out from his body and he had stepped into the Seventh Grade Sovereign Realm!
Zong Teng nodded his head as he took a step forth and appeared before Jiu You, who was enveloped in surging purple flames.
The man named Zong Yan had also landed on the Receiving Stage that Mu Chen was on and looked at the latter with ridicule in his eyes, like a cat toying with a mouse.
Mu Chen seemed to have sensed something and slightly opened his eyes. However, his black pupils still indifferently cast a glance at the descending Zong Yan, before gently flicking his ten fingers in his sleeves. A spiritual light that couldn't be seen by the naked eye flew out and integrated into the ground of the Receiving Stage.
