Wu Dong: I, Lin Langtian, will not play a supporting role

After deciding to head to the Ancient Body Refining Tower, Lin Langtian and his companions spent the next day traveling non-stop.

At their full speed, the four of them eventually arrived at the area where the Ancient Body Refining Tower was located, as expected.

On a solitary peak, Lin Langtian and his three companions appeared in a flash.

Their gazes turned to the distance, where a vast city, stretching for thousands of miles, stood silently amidst the mountains.

Although the city is now in ruins, its former grandeur can still be seen in its dilapidated state.

It is likely that in those ancient times, this city must have been a magnificent city in the Plains of Divine Beasts.

"This is the Great Wilderness City. In ancient times, it was a top power in the Divine Beast Plains. And in this city, there is an ancient body-refining tower that has been left behind," Qin Jun introduced with a smile.

Lin Langtian nodded, then pondered, "It seems that this ancient body-refining tower is indeed quite attractive."

Outside the Great Wilderness City, powerful auras were constantly rushing in, and clearly, their target was the ancient Body Refining Tower.

The next moment, the four of them exchanged a glance and eagerly headed towards the Great Wilderness City.

When the four rushed into the ruined city, a sense of desolation washed over them.

Within the Great Wilderness City, towering buildings reach into the clouds, exuding a sense of wildness.

At the same time, countless streaks of light streaked across the sky, rapidly heading towards the center of this massive, ruined city.

In that direction, they all sensed an extremely ancient and primordial fluctuation.

Clearly, in this ruined city, only the ancient body-refining tower that remains possesses such power.

"go!"

A glint flashed in the eyes of Lin Langtian and his companions, and then their speed suddenly increased, tearing through space as they disappeared.

After about half an hour, their speed finally began to slow down.

Swish!
The four figures appeared atop a dilapidated stone building, their gazes fixed intently on what lay ahead.

In the center of the land, a weathered ancient stone tower stood silently.

The stone tower was dark gray, and its surface had extremely ancient patterns, as if it were formed naturally.

It stood there, not particularly majestic, but when people looked at it, they were momentarily stunned.

A powerful pressure swept out, causing Lin Langtian's body to ache slightly, as if it were about to shatter.

"Is this the ancient body-refining tower?" Lin Langtian asked, his eyes narrowing slightly.

This tower is indeed unique.

"This ancient body-refining tower has attracted quite a few people." Tianfeng shifted his gaze from the body-refining tower, narrowed his eyes, and stared at his surroundings, saying calmly.

Lin Langtian nodded slightly. He also noticed that there were sharp gazes directed at them from this area, enveloping the four of them.

The next moment, as if sensing something, he shifted his gaze and saw four figures standing on the ruined mountain peak.

The four men were all as strong as iron towers, clad in black armor, and exuded a strong aura of menace.

Their eyes were slightly reddish, and on their foreheads was a dark rhinoceros horn, which was slightly curved, as if it could pierce through the void, extremely sharp.

"That's because the Rhinoceros Demon Clan didn't expect them to come too. This clan specializes in physical cultivation and possesses strength capable of uprooting mountains. Once they engage in battle, they become like madmen, extremely difficult to deal with," Qin Jun said, glancing over as well.

"The leader should be Han Yue, the prodigy of the younger generation of the Rhinoceros Demon Clan," Qin Jun said in a low voice, glancing at the black-armored figure in the lead.

"This person has also stepped into the seventh rank of Supreme, and with the strength of his physical body, his combat power is extraordinary."

Lin Langtian nodded slightly. Although this person was a seventh-grade supreme being, he was not an ordinary seventh-grade supreme being. His powerful physical strength was probably unmatched by anyone below the eighth-grade supreme being.

"Those to the west should be the Flame Crane Clan. There's also the Dragon Ape Clan over there. The Devouring Crocodile Clan is quite a sight now." Tian Feng, standing to the side, also glanced around, his expression growing increasingly serious.

Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

These are all renowned spirit beast races in the vast world, and now they have all gathered here.

It seems that a fierce battle is inevitable if we want to seize the opportunities within this ancient body-refining tower.

Just then, Lin Langtian's mind suddenly stirred, and he sensed a sharp gaze containing domineering intent suddenly shooting towards them.

Tianfeng and the other two also sensed something and looked up.

On a ruined building in the distance, five figures stood silently, their gazes unfriendly.

"It's the Tianpeng clan. They actually came too." Tianfeng frowned slightly when he saw the newcomers.

Lin Langtian looked up and saw a man in black standing with his hands behind his back at the head of the Tianpeng Clan's camp.

His body was somewhat thin, but beneath his indifferent expression emanated an undisguised, sharp, and domineering aura that sent chills down one's spine.

This person only glanced at Tianfeng and Qin Jun briefly, and didn't even look at Lin Langtian and Tianling. He just sneered and sat cross-legged with his eyes closed to rest.

"It's Zong Lin. He's one of the most outstanding young people in the Tianpeng Clan. My Nine Nether Sparrow Clan and the Tianpeng Clan are at odds, so we're probably in trouble now." Qin Jun shook his head with a wry smile upon seeing this.

"Brother Qin, is this person very strong?" Lin Langtian asked upon hearing this.

"Brother Lin, you may not know this, but every five years, my Nine Nether Sparrow Clan and the Heavenly Roc Clan hold a competition for the younger generation. This person won all six of his matches in this competition. Almost no one in my Nine Nether Sparrow Clan can do anything to him," Qin Jun said with a wry smile.

Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian raised an eyebrow. So, Zong Lin does indeed have some strength.

Currently, numerous powerful figures have gathered here, but they are still keeping to themselves. However, once this ancient body-refining tower is truly activated, these powerful individuals will likely begin to bare their fangs.
At that time, there will inevitably be a bloody storm.

Lin Langtian shook his head, ceasing his thoughts on these matters. He lowered his eyelids, closed his eyes to rest, and began to wait quietly.

As time passed, at one point, a ray of sunlight suddenly shone down from the sky.

The sunlight, like flames, roared down and landed precisely on the spire of this mottled stone tower.

At that very moment, all the powerful beings from the various spirit beast races present, as well as Lin Langtian, who had kept his eyes tightly closed, suddenly opened them.

This ancient body-refining tower has finally been opened!

Rumble!
Under those intense gazes, the Ancient Body Refining Tower emitted a deep sound.

Then, the ground outside the stone tower slowly cracked open, and ten ancient stone platforms rose up from the ground.

The stone platform was covered with obscure runes, which shimmered with a faint luster.

When these ten stone platforms appeared, the many powerful figures in the area immediately let out a series of exclamations of surprise.

Qin Jun frowned and said, "This time, the Ancient Body Refining Tower only has twenty reception platforms. Each reception platform can only receive one person, which means that only twenty people can enter this Body Refining Tower this time, ten fewer than last time."

Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian nodded slightly, and at the same time understood the function of the reception platform.

To put it simply, it's a selection process to allow the strongest individuals to enter the Ancient Body Refining Tower.

Ten reception platforms stood quietly around the ancient body-refining tower. However, with their appearance, the many spirit beast races that were originally eager to try became quiet instead.

Everyone knows that these ten welcoming platforms can only truly stand firm after they are stained red with blood.

This stalemate lasted only a few minutes before Han Yue, a man from the Rhinoceros Demon Clan, slowly walked out.

His fierce gaze swept across the area, and his slightly sharp voice echoed: "Since none of you want to start this, then let my Rhinoceros Demon Clan do it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he shot out and landed heavily on a receiving platform.

His fierce gaze swept across the room, making him resemble an ancient, ferocious rhinoceros charging about.

"I, Han Yue, want this reception platform! Anyone who disagrees, come and fight!" He stood on the reception platform and said coldly.

Han Yue stood with his hands behind his back, exuding an aura of dominance, which caused the eyes of some of the surrounding prodigies to shift.

"Hmph, I've long heard of your domineering nature, Han Yue. Today, my Demon Elephant Clan will test you!"

But just then, a figure about the size of a giant tower descended from the sky and landed on the reception platform where Han Yue was.

In an instant, the earth trembled violently.

Many eyes turned to it, and there was a giant figure dressed in black, with strange patterns painted on his body. When he shone with light, it seemed to have the power to shake the heavens.

The man held a massive, dark club. The club seemed incredibly heavy; the mere touch of it caused cracks to appear on the ground, which was clearly not made of ordinary material.

"It turns out to be Xu Jie, a prodigy from the Demon Elephant Clan. It is said that he has also reached the seventh-rank Supreme level and is strong enough to lift mountains. If these two clans were to fight, it would probably cause the heavens and the earth to collapse."

The appearance of this person immediately caused a great uproar.

"The Elephant Clan?"

Han Yue narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression indifferent, but he didn't say anything unnecessary.

With a sudden stomp of his foot, the earth cracked, and a fierce aura swept across the land. His figure shot out like an ancient, ferocious rhinoceros.

A fierce offensive was launched immediately.

Seeing this, Xu Jie let out a cold snort, but he was not afraid. He swept his dark giant staff horizontally, shattering the void, and slammed it down heavily on Han Yue.

boom!
A powerful and violent surge of spiritual energy erupted from the receiving platform.

The battle between the two directly and completely broke the stalemate in this area.

Immediately afterward, the powerful figures from all sides could no longer wait, and streams of powerful spiritual energy shot directly into the sky.

In the next instant, figures shot out and headed straight for the other reception platforms.

"Do it!"

Seeing this, Tianfeng also let out a low shout, and in the next instant, the four of them shot out and landed on the four nearest reception platforms.

As soon as Lin Langtian appeared on the reception platform, he put one hand behind his back, looking as immovable as a mountain.

"This person is merely a sixth-grade Supreme, yet he dares to occupy a reception platform. He truly doesn't know his own mortality!"

"This guy seems to be human? How did he sneak into the Divine Beast Plains?"

"What are the Nine Nether Sparrow Clan doing, letting this kid fight for a reception platform all by himself?"

"..."

Many eyes were drawn to this spot, followed by some sarcastic and mocking remarks.

However, Lin Langtian remained expressionless and unmoved in the face of these disdainful remarks.

"That human from the Nine Nether Sparrow Clan wants to obtain a reception platform?"

Not far away, several members of the Tianpeng Clan stared in astonishment at this scene. Then someone mocked, "A mere sixth-grade Supreme wants to guard a reception platform? How foolish."

As soon as he finished speaking, a man in a red robe grinned, his eyes flashing with a fierce light. A powerful surge of spiritual energy burst forth from his body, revealing that he had stepped into the seventh-grade supreme realm!
“Although this guy is human, he is still part of the Nine Nether Sparrow Clan. Let me teach him a lesson.”

The man in black, Zong Lin, nodded noncommittally.

Seeing this, the man in red robes smiled slightly, then took a step forward and landed directly on the reception platform where Lin Langtian was. His gaze toward the latter was playful, like a cat toying with a mouse.

"If you roll down on your own, I might spare your life, but I'll cut off your arm," the man in red robes said, glancing at Lin Langtian.

However, Lin Langtian remained unmoved by his words, his face expressionless, as if he were looking at a dead man.

Seeing this, the man in the red robe was not angered, but merely smiled faintly and muttered to himself, "What a fool who doesn't know his own limits."

boom!
The moment his voice fell, his eyes turned completely cold.

He stomped his foot on the ground and shot out like a beam of light, a long spear burning with crimson flames appearing in his hand.

The spear shot out like a dragon, its crimson light spreading out like a roc pouncing on a dragon, its momentum fierce and vast, swift as thunder as it thrust towards Lin Langtian's brow.

"The Heavenly Roc Technique, the Fiery Roc Dragon-Locking Spear!"

The man in red robes made a ruthless move from the start, showing no mercy whatsoever. His powerful spiritual energy enveloped the area, revealing his strength as a seventh-grade supreme being.

Outside the arena, many powerful figures whose expressions changed slightly upon witnessing this scene.

The red-robed man's move was something even a fellow seventh-rank supreme being would have to treat with caution. Yet Lin Langtian remained motionless, seemingly having given up on his life and preparing to die.

However, just as everyone was preparing to wait for Lin Langtian to die, the latter suddenly stretched out his finger and gently grabbed.

Primordial Dragon Claw Hand!
hum!
Suddenly, a dragon's roar that resounded through the heavens and earth resounded from within Lin Langtian's body, accompanied by a terrifying dragon god's pressure spreading out.

At the same time, boundless primordial power burst forth from his body, and finally, the primordial power intertwined and slowly condensed in Lin Langtian's hand.

Lin Langtian's right hand shimmered with a strange light, resembling an indestructible dragon claw.

"Dragon's Might?! You're a dragon?"

The sudden turn of events startled the man in the red robe, and his eyes grew even colder.

"It's just a charade. If this is all you've got, you can't stop me!" (End of Chapter)
