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

"Wow, these are three gluttons!"

Sensing the insatiable greed of the Primordial Demonic Symbol, Dragon God Mark, and Kun God Mark within his body for the Thunder Marrow, Lin Langtian couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile.

It would be impossible for an ordinary person to keep these three gluttonous beasts alive.

Thinking of this, Lin Langtian's mind stirred, and as his spiritual power surged, it directly formed a powerful attraction force.

Then it directly sucked up all the lightning marrow that was passing by.

call out!call out!
In an instant, more than a dozen streaks of light swept over, with drops of thunder marrow rolling in them, accompanied by rolling thunderous sounds.

Those around them, Tianfeng, Han Yue and the others were shocked to see Lin Langtian absorbing the Thunder Marrow in such a grand manner. They immediately scattered, fearing that they would be affected.

They were very aware of the excruciating pain of the Thunder Marrow entering the body, so this kind of tempering was best done slowly.

If you act too hastily, your flesh and blood will be completely melted away by the domineering thunder marrow.

Rumble!
The streaks of light came hurtling in, and finally, like cannonballs, they all slammed into Lin Langtian's body.

Instantly, his body was blasted open with bloody holes, becoming a bloody mess.

As the blood flowed, the silver thunder marrow seeped into the flesh and blood.

The excruciating pain erupted instantly within his body.

Lin Langtian could even hear the strange sounds his flesh made when it came into contact with the Thunder Marrow, and the feeling was as if his flesh was being melted.

However, at that very moment, the Dragon God Kun God runes and the Primordial Demonic Talisman suddenly resounded from Lin Langtian's body.

The thunder marrow power that had been integrated into his flesh and blood began to transform into streaks of silver light that swept past, and was ultimately absorbed by the dragon god Kun god patterns coiled on Lin Langtian's arms and the primordial demonic runes within his body.

The next moment, Lin Langtian opened his eyes, which flashed with silver light.

His body, which had been mangled and bloody, was rapidly repaired at that moment.

The faint crackling of lightning on his skin indicated that he had been tempered and become even more powerful.

"He's still alive?!"

When Zong Lin, Han Yue, and the others saw Lin Langtian recover, their pupils contracted.

The previous lightning marrow erosion would have been unbearable for them, but how did Lin Langtian manage to withstand it so quickly?
"How come this guy's physical body is so much stronger than ours?!" Xu Jie said in disbelief.

They were divine beasts, and their physical bodies were already incredibly strong. How could Lin Langtian, with his mere human body, be so much stronger than them?
Lin Langtian ignored their astonishment. He could feel the dragon and Kun gods on his arms becoming more lifelike and majestic.

It felt as if they were about to be resurrected.

In addition, the Primordial Demonic Symbol within his body is growing stronger and stronger. In comparison, the combined power of the other seven demonic symbols is probably not as great as that of the Primordial Demonic Symbol.

Seeing this, Lin Langtian's eyes flickered slightly, and then he raised his head to look at this space where light whistled.

Then, he stretched out his arms, and to everyone's astonishment, his spiritual power surged and the suction force exploded.

Instantly, streaks of light that had been rushing past all around him were drawn to him like magnets, swirling towards Lin Langtian's body.

Upon seeing this, Zong Lin and the others who were groaning in pain all around suddenly twitched their eyelids and could no longer help but curse out loud.

"Not human at all!"

puff puff!

Under the envious, jealous, and hateful gazes of several people, the streams of light containing thunderous essence rushed in and shot into Lin Langtian's flesh and blood.

Meanwhile, the Dragon God Kun God runes on Lin Langtian's arms shimmered with a purple-gold luster, greedily devouring the thunder marrow power surging into Lin Langtian's body along with the Primordial Demon Rune.

This almost frenzied absorption sent chills down the spines of Han Yue, Zong Lin, Tian Feng, and Xu Jie, who were watching from afar.

This guy is absolutely insane!

Who exactly is the mythical beast?
Amidst the astonishment of the crowd, the five lightning-infused prayer mats continued their flight.

However, this time, the speed at which Han Yue and the others absorbed the light began to slow down.

On the other hand, Lin Langtian was absorbing the energy with increasing madness, as if he wanted to collect all the thunder essence in this space.

Han Yue and the others were green with envy, so they simply closed their eyes and decided to ignore it.

And so time passed quickly.

After an unknown amount of time, Han Yue and the others opened their eyes as if sensing something.

Ahead, the light circle leading to the fourth level of the Body Refinement Tower had become clear.

At the same time, Lin Langtian, who was sitting cross-legged on the lightning futon, also opened his eyes.

When he opened his eyes, his body was immediately filled with dazzling golden light and a primordial aura.

At the same time, faint golden patterns appeared on his skin, patterns that resembled dragon scales and Kun feathers, looking extremely peculiar.

Then Lin Langtian slowly clenched his fist, and as his fingers clenched, it seemed as if a primordial power capable of destroying mountains with a single palm strike was rapidly gathering.

Lin Langtian threw a light punch, without any ripples, but the space itself seemed to distort where the punch passed.

This is the power he unleashed using only his physical body. This punch could easily shatter even a sixth-grade supreme being.

A slow smile appeared on Lin Langtian's lips. It seemed that the Thunder Marrow Baptism had not been in vain.

Both the Dragon Kun Divine Pattern and the Primordial Demonic Talisman are more than twice as powerful as before.

After testing his own enhancements, Lin Langtian stood up from the lightning-lit futon and looked at the light circle leading to the fourth level.

Not far to the left and right, Han Yue and his group of four also caught up. They glanced at Lin Langtian, their faces remaining calm, but they were slightly startled.

They all sensed that Lin Langtian was now in even greater danger than before.

It seems that this guy gained more benefits from this Thunder Marrow Baptism than the four of them combined.

A cold glint flashed in Zong Lin's eyes. It seemed that Lin Langtian's strength would increase with each level of the Body Refining Tower he passed, making him a true threat.

As Zong Lin's thoughts raced, the next moment, Han Yue stared intently at the light circle leading to the fourth level, then shot out first, rushing straight into the light circle and disappearing from sight.

Following Han Yue, Zong Lin also followed closely behind Tian Feng and Xu Jie, and the three of them rushed into the light circle one after another.

Lin Langtian stretched and looked at the circle of light with some anticipation. Then, he took a big step and, like a wild beast charging, leaped into the circle of light.

"So this is the fourth level of the Body Refinement Tower...?"

Upon entering the aperture, the scene before him changed dramatically, and Lin Langtian curiously surveyed his surroundings.

The square in front of us is extremely ancient, with the ground paved with ancient stone bearing the marks of time.

A sense of primordial vastness permeated the entire space. "This is indeed the fourth level of the Body Refinement Tower," a voice came from the side. Tian Feng walked over and said calmly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Tianfeng flicked his finger, pointing directly to the very center of the ancient square: "Look there."

Lin Langtian's gaze followed, and he saw a black stone tablet, only a few feet tall, in the center of the ancient square.

"This is the Power Monument. The rules for this fourth level are actually quite simple. You just need to use your physical strength to punch the Power Monument. Do you see the bronze lamp on the Power Monument?"

Lin Langtian nodded.

At the very front of the stone tablet were nine bronze lamps, but they were completely dark inside and had no flames.

"That is the mark of physical strength in a punch. Its ultimate is the simultaneous burning of all nine lamps, but that is basically impossible, because even a ninth-grade supreme being cannot do it."

"According to the rules, as long as you can light six bronze lamps, you can pass through this fourth level."

"Do you know what this stone tablet is made of?" After introducing the black stone tablet, Tianfeng changed the subject again.

Lin Langtian shook his head. Although he had been reborn, he knew very little about the affairs of the Great Thousand Worlds and had forgotten most of them. Therefore, he was somewhat unfamiliar with everything in the Divine Beast Plains.

"It was forged from the flesh and blood of the Devouring Beast, which was born of heaven and earth and only appeared in the most ancient times."

This Heaven-Devouring Divine Beast can devour the heavens in a fit of rage; even the Heavenly Sovereign would have to be wary of it.

Once this power monument is struck by a powerful force, a wisp of the essence of the Heaven-Devouring Divine Beast will overflow from it.

The level of this essence depends on the intensity of the bombardment... In other words, the more bronze lamps are lit, the stronger the blood essence will permeate out.

"And this is the benefit of going through the fourth level, do you understand?" Tianfeng's eyes grew increasingly fervent as he slowly spoke.

Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian narrowed his eyes and nodded.

The essence of the Devouring Beast... if one could absorb it, the effect on one's self-improvement would be astonishing, which goes without saying.

While Lin Langtian and his companion were talking, Han Yue, Zong Lin, and Xu Jie stared at the black stone tablet with greedy and solemn expressions, and then the group gradually approached it.

The stone tablet was incredibly hard, showing no sign that it was made of flesh and blood.

However, the dark and deep color subtly exuded a chilling aura, making one's blood tremble.

Lin Langtian knew that it must be the residual aura left behind by the Devouring Beast.

Moreover, as he approached the stone tablet, Lin Langtian felt the spiritual energy within his body gradually stagnate, making it difficult to circulate.

"My spiritual power is completely suppressed... As expected, I can only use pure physical strength here." Lin Langtian murmured to himself as he realized the situation within his body.

While Lin Langtian was pondering, Xu Jie from the Demon Elephant Clan stared intently at the black stone tablet and couldn't wait to laugh.

"Since none of you have made a move, why don't I give it a try and see what's so extraordinary about this legendary Power Tablet!"

Seeing this, Lin Langtian and the other three remained silent, which was clearly a tacit agreement.

In the Power Monument Test, there's no point in vying for the order; everyone only gets one chance to act.

Seeing that no one objected, Xu Jie stepped forward and finally stopped in front of the black stone tablet.

He took a deep breath, regulated his breathing for a moment, and restored himself to his peak condition before clenching his fists tightly.

boom!
A red light burst forth from his body, and Xu Jie's body rapidly expanded at that moment.

His muscles bulged out like blocks of iron, and his veins, like writhing dragons, climbed beneath his skin.

Although there were no fluctuations in spiritual energy, the power surging from Xu Jie's body was deeply moving.

In addition, the light of qi and blood gradually condensed on Xu Jie's body surface, turning into streaks of blood red on his skin.

Those blood-red patterns instantly made Xu Jie look much fierce and imposing.

"Those are the blood markings of the Demon Elephant Clan. Activating the bloodline can temporarily enhance physical strength," Tianfeng whispered to Lin Langtian.

Lin Langtian nodded. With the blood runes enhancing him, Xu Jie's physical body did indeed seem to have become stronger.

"I wonder how many bronze lamps Xu Jie can light?"

Thoughts flashed through everyone's minds, and the next moment, Xu Jie stomped his foot hard on the ground.

The ancient square trembled instantly, and then his body shot out.

That fierce and powerful aura was like a demonic elephant treading the sky, intent on destroying the heavens and the earth.

boom!
Xu Jie unleashed a punch, crimson blood energy coiling around his fist. The force of the punch shook the space and created a piercing sonic boom across the plaza.

Behind Xu Jie, an enormous phantom of a demonic elephant appeared. The demonic elephant was ferocious and terrifying, causing one's heart to tremble.

boom!
The punch, imbued with Xu Jie's full power, shattered the air and, under the watchful eyes of Lin Langtian and the others, slammed heavily onto the black stone tablet.

In an instant, a deep voice resounded.

The surface of the black stone tablet appeared to ripple, but the tablet itself remained completely still.

raging!

Ripple transmission!
At the top of the black stone tablet, the first bronze lamp immediately lit up with a "whoosh" and burst into flames.

puff!puff!puff!
After the first bronze lamp was lit, within moments, the second, third, and fourth lamps were also easily ignited.

However, by the fifth lamp, the speed finally began to slow down.

Within the fifth bronze lamp, a tiny spark appeared, and after a period of gathering, it finally burst into flames with a soft "poof."

The fifth bronze lamp is lit!

Lin Langtian and the others remained expressionless, but their eyes were fixed on the sixth bronze lamp.

Given Xu Jie's strength, lighting five lamps was within their expectations; the crucial question was whether he could light the sixth.

Chi Chi!

After the fifth lamp was lit, sporadic sparks began to appear in the sixth bronze lamp.

The sparks struggled to gather, and finally, under Xu Jie's crimson gaze, they slowly began to glow with the light of flame.

However, just as the flames began to brighten, the sparks suddenly flickered and then quickly went out.

The entire bronze lamp was completely plunged back into darkness.

The sixth bronze lamp failed! (End of Chapter)
