Chapter 1003 - Lighting the Bronze Lamps
The five silhouettes that quietly sat on the ancient za opened their eyes at the same time. In that instant when the five of them opened their eyes, a faint scarlet light flickered on the surface of their bodies. Those lights didn’t seem to be a Spiritual Energy light, but they were a form of the blood and aura in their bodies reaching the pinnacle.
Clearly, in this period of resting, the five’s states had reached their pinnacle.
As a faint scarlet lustre enveloped them, Xu Kun of the Demonic Elephant n stood up first and he looked at the ck stone tablet with a heated gaze and smiled, “Since none of you are making a move, then let me test out this legendary Strength Tablet!”
When the four of them heard his words, they did not speak, but remained silent. After all, there’s nothing for them topete for in terms of the sequence, since all of them only had a single chance.
Seeing that no one objected, Xu Kun strode forth and he took a deep breath before the ck stone tablet, then clenched his fist.
Boom!
A scarlet light burst from his body and Xu Kun’s body rapidly expanded. The muscles on his body swelled like iron with veins wriggling like dragons that crawled up and down his skin.
Although there weren’t any Spiritual Energy undtions, the energy that exploded from Xu Kun was still very powerful.
But after circting his own strength, Xu Kun did not stop there. Both of his hands joined together and a bloody light gradually gathered on the surface of his body, forming into blood-red runes on the surface of his skin, runes that made Xu Kun look even more ferocious.
“It’s the Blood Runes of the Demonic Elephant n. Arousing their bloodline can temporarily raise the strength of their physique.” Mo Feng exined to Mu Chen from the side.
Mu Chen nodded his head and he could sense that Xu Kun’s physique had grown a little stronger at this moment. Immediately, he felt a little envious, since these Divine Beast fellows were truly blessed by the heavens in terms of physical bodies.
“I wonder how manymps Xu Kun can light up?”
As this thought shed in Mu Chen’s heart, Xu Kun suddenly stomped on the floor, causing the ancient za to tremble and his body charged forth with a ferocious bearing, like a demonic elephant that was walking through the horizon and wanting to destroy the heavens and earth.
Boom!
Xu Kun punched forth with a scarlet aura circling his fist. In the path of his fist, space undted and an ear-piercing noise exploded. Behind Xu Kun, a massive elephant appeared, looking ferocious and sinister, which would make one feel fearful.
Boom!
Xu Kun’s fist, which contained all his power, finally shattered the atmosphere and heavily mmed against the ck stone tablet under the nervous gazes of the other four.
In that instant of impact, a deep roar resounded and a ripple seemed to spread out from the ck stone tablet, but the tablet itself did not move.
Sizzle!
As the ripple spread out, Mu Chen and the rest could see the firstmp ignite with mes.
The mes were scarlet in colour, filled with the fluctuation of a blood aura, as if it was from Xu Kun’s fist.
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
After the first bronzemp, the next three lit up as well. However, when it reached the fifthmp, it finally slowed down and the scarlet smoke from the fivemps drifted. Small sparks appeared and after gathering, the fifthmppletely lit up.
The fifth bronzemp lit up!
The expression of the rest did not move and their gazes were fixed on the sixth bronzemp. With Xu Kun’s strength, lighting up fivemps was within their expectations. As for the sixth, it was the most crucial one.
Sizzle!
After the fifthmp, sparks started to appear in the sixthmp. They had gathered with much difficulty before it slowly emitted a small lustre of mes under Xu Kun’s reddened eyes.
But when the mes lit up, the mes suddenly shook, before they were swiftly extinguished, returning to darkness.
The sixth bronzemp, failure!
Xu Kun’s face had instantly turned pale at this scene with disbelief filling his eyes. The full strength of his punch couldn’t even light up the sixthmp?
When the other four saw this scene, their gazes turned grave. In their expectations, Xu Kun should have had a chance of lighting up the sixth bronzemp. But they never expected him to fail.
Buzz!
While they sighed, the ck stone tablet lightly trembled and a chaotic flowing aura seeped out and entered through Xu Kun’s nose.
Xu Kun’s body froze in that instant as the aura around him swiftly boiled. The scarlet aura swept around his body and in just ten-odd breaths, the aura that emanated from Xu Kun’s body had been greatly strengthened.
“This is the essence of the Sky-Devouring Divine Beast?” When Mu Chen saw this scene, his eyes shed with a sh of yearning in his eyes. That’s because he could sense that in those short ten-odd breaths, the strengthening of Xu Kun’s physique was even greater than being baptised by the Lightning Essences.
The essence of the Sky-Devouring Divine Beast was naturally a great nourishment for the physical body.
If Xu Kun could obtain another chance to punch the stone tablet, he would probably have a great chance of lighting up the sixthmp and obtain the qualification to enter the next level.
But it was a pity...
Xu Kun naturally understood this factor as well. Thus, he could only gnash his teeth in unwillingness and anger as a light blossomed around him, before he disappeared. Evidently, he was immediately eliminated, since he couldn’t light up the sixth bronzemp.
Mu Chen and the rest watched as Xu Kun was kicked out of the Body Refining Pagoda and the atmosphere was quiet in this instant. However, their gazes had turned even more grave.
The silencested for a brief moment before Zong Teng slowly walked out and smiled, “Let me be the second one to try.”
When he spoke, he had already walked out and had appeared before the ck stone tablet. Focusing his attention, a light burst from his body, before his body had turned into a few thousand-foot sized roc when the light burst out.
Clearly, Zong Teng had immediately brought out his Divine Beast form!
As the roc stood proudly in the sky, its wings were a faint gold, filled with prestige and might.
Liiiii!
A brilliant cry resounded between the heavens and earth. In the next instant, the golden roc had suddenly thrust a w down. That w looked like it was piercing through space and could shatter mountains and split the ocean.
Boom!
The huge w, which was covered in golden scales, heavily shed against the ck stone tablet. Beneath the w, the stone tablet looked extremely small. However, it was this tiny-looking tablet that managed to stand still in the za that even the massive roc couldn’t move it.
However, a massive force still came from the w and was sent to the ck stone tablet.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
Instantly, one bronzemp after another swiftly lit up.
In a few breaths’ time, the fifth bronzemp had lit up and the speed was even faster and more ferocious than Xu Kun.
After the fifthmp was lit up, sparks appeared in the sixthmp. The sparks gathered and finally, under the gazes of the other three, it hadpletely lit up.
The sixth bronzemp had sessfully lit up!
When the sixth bronzemp was lit up, a burst of surprise resounded from outside the pagoda. Many experts were surprised. Zong Teng was truly extraordinary, since he could even achieve something that Xu Kun could not.
Under the exmations of surprise, the faces of Liu Qing and the rest were filled with pride, since they had finally got back some face after being suppressed by Mu Chen.
“That fellow is truly somewhat formidable.” In the ancient za, Mu Chen also couldn’t help nodding his head. Even though Zong Teng was hateful, there was nothing toment on his strength.
Mo Feng had nodded his head as well, acknowledging Zong Teng’s strength.
Buzz!
As they spoke, the ck stone tablet trembled and a chaotic aura poured out towards the roc. The roc absorbed the essence of the Sky-Devouring Divine Beast into its body. Instantly, a golden light burst from its body and the gold on its wings had turned deeper.
As the golden light circted, the roc swiftly shrunk, before returning to a human form and appeared on the za.
Zong Teng had his hands behind his back and he had a faint smile on his face. Looking at Mo Feng and Mu Chen, he lightly smiled. “Now, it’s the performance of you guys.”
Although his words were calm, the pride that was held within couldn’t be concealed.
Mo Feng took a nce at him, before walking out without replying.
Standing before the stone tablet, he did not show any signs of transforming as he threw a palm forth. That palm looked simple but when it was thrown out, Mo Feng’s fingers had instantly be extremely sharp and golden phoenix feathers could be vaguely seen like a glove of phoenix feathers.
In that single palm, a phoenix cry had resounded as well.
Boom!
The palm heavily mmed against the stone tablet and it rippled before the bronzemps lit up one after another.
In a few breaths’ time, five bronzemps had already been lit up.
Thereafter, sparks appeared in the sixth bronzemp before it was lit up.
Zong Teng had slightly furrowed his brows. Although he knew how formidable Mo Feng was, he did not expect that thetter could light up six bronzemp so easily. Mo Feng’s achievement was on the same level as him.
But as that thought shed in his mind, Zong Teng suddenly contracted his eyes when he saw that after the sixth bronzemp was lit up, it did not stop and sparks had appeared in the seventhmp. However, the sparks only appeared in the seventhmp for a brief instant before they disappeared.
However, this scene was even more outstanding than Zong Teng’s previous performance!
Mo Feng actually had the qualifications to make a go at the seventhmp!
