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

The sixth bronze lamp failed!
Seeing this, Lin Langtian and the others also became solemn, while Xu Jie looked unwilling.

hum!
Just then, the black stone tablet began to tremble slightly.

A wisp of slightly chaotic air emanated from it, eventually entering Xu Jie's nostrils.

Xu Jie's body stiffened instantly, and his blood and qi surged rapidly. In just a dozen breaths, the power of blood and qi emanating from Xu Jie's body was greatly enhanced.

"That's the essence of the Devouring Beast?" Lin Langtian asked, his eyes narrowing slightly.

The fact that lighting just five bronze lamps could result in such a significant enhancement of one's physical body shows that the essence of this Devouring Beast is truly extraordinary.

After absorbing the essence of the Devouring Beast, Xu Jie's body shone with light, and then his figure disappeared.

Clearly, after failing to light the six bronze lamps, he was eliminated and kicked out of the Body Refining Tower.

Seeing this, Na Zonglin slowly stepped forward and said with a faint smile, "I'll be the second to make a move."

As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of light suddenly erupted from his body.

Immediately afterward, his body transformed into a massive roc, several thousand feet in size, amidst the burst of light.

Zong Lin then transformed back into his original form!
The roc stood proudly in the void, its enormous wings displaying a faint golden hue, majestic and domineering.

The next moment, the roc slammed its claw down on the black power monument with a devastating force.

Bear!
In an instant, the bronze lamps on the black stone tablet were lit one by one.

In just a few breaths, five bronze lamps were lit, and after the fifth bronze lamp was lit, sparks began to appear in the sixth lamp as well.

Finally, the sparks coalesced and ignited completely.

The sixth bronze lamp has been successfully lit!

hum!
The black stone tablet trembled once more, and a chaotic aura burst forth, rushing directly towards the enormous roc.

With a single breath, Tianpeng absorbed the essence of the Devouring Beast into its body. Instantly, golden light burst forth from its body, and its already golden feathers seemed to deepen in color.

Amidst the surging golden light, Tianpeng rapidly shrank, finally transforming back into a human figure and reappearing on the plaza.

Zong Lin stood with his hands behind his back, a faint smile on his face. He looked at Lin Langtian and the others and said with a smile, "Now it's time to see your performance."

His words, though seemingly calm, carried an undeniable air of arrogance and self-satisfaction.

Lin Langtian remained expressionless. Tian Feng glanced at him and strode out.

He stood before the stone tablet, but showed no sign of changing his form; he simply struck out with what appeared to be a light palm.

However, with a single palm strike, the phoenix's cry echoed.

Boom!
The palm struck the stone tablet heavily, causing ripples on its surface. One by one, the bronze lamps on it lit up.

In just a few breaths, five bronze lamps were lit!
Immediately afterwards, sparks appeared in the sixth bronze lamp, and it burst into flames!
Moreover, sparks appeared sporadically inside the seventh bronze lamp.

However, these sparks were too sparse, and after persisting for a while, they disappeared.

Upon seeing this, Zong Lin's pupils suddenly contracted. This Tian Feng was clearly performing even better than he had before!
This person actually has the qualifications to attempt to break through to the seventh bronze lamp!
This undoubtedly made the arrogant Zong Lin feel somewhat uncomfortable.

After Tianfeng absorbed an even greater amount of the Devouring Heaven Divine Beast's essence, Han Yue rubbed his hands together and said with a smile, "After watching two matches, I'm itching to join in. Let me take the lead next."

Lin Langtian nodded slightly upon hearing this, indicating that he had no objection.

From a certain perspective, Han Yue should be considered one of the top experts who entered the Body Refining Tower.

Under the watchful eyes of the others, Han Yue slowly closed his eyes.

His body gradually turned crimson, a sign that his blood and qi were surging wildly within him. Finally, the blood and qi rapidly condensed into a giant crimson rhinoceros that was about tens of feet long.

The giant rhinoceros trod on the ground, and a blood-red horn stood slightly erect on its head, displaying an extremely terrifying sharpness.

Boom!
The next moment, Han Yue's two fingers seemed to merge with the rhinoceros horn, and he suddenly swung them out, striking the stone tablet heavily.

In an instant, the entire surface of the stone tablet was suddenly shaken, and visible ripples spread rapidly from the surface.

The commotion was far more powerful than that of Tianfeng and his two companions before!

raging!

In the blink of an eye, the first five bronze lamps ignited almost simultaneously. Then, the sixth bronze lamp paused slightly before bursting into flames with a soft "poof."

Even inside the seventh bronze lamp, sporadic flames appeared.

These flames appeared little by little, and eventually began to gather together at a slow pace.

Chi Chi!

More and more sparks appeared. And when they coalesced to a certain point, they finally burst forth completely, transforming into a raging inferno that ignited the seventh bronze lamp completely.

The seventh bronze lamp has been successfully lit!
Buzz!

The black stone tablet began to tremble, and then faint blood-like patterns seemed to appear on its surface, with wisps of chaotic energy seeping out.

This time, however, these chaotic energies contained a hint of dark red, making them appear even purer and more powerful.

Standing before the stone tablet, Han Yue took a deep breath, directly absorbing all the slightly dark red chaotic energy.

Then, his body suddenly turned blood red, and behind him, the blood-red giant rhinoceros that had disappeared reappeared and quickly expanded, its fierce and domineering aura becoming even stronger.

The giant rhinoceros's transformation lasted for a while before gradually dissipating. Han Yue's body returned to normal. He looked down at his palm, smiled slightly, and then turned and left.

He was clearly quite satisfied with the benefits he had gained.

As Han Yue stepped back, Zong Lin and Tian Feng's gazes turned and landed on Lin Langtian.

They were very curious about how this mysterious dark horse, Lin Langtian, could light up several lamps.

Ignoring the gazes of the others, Lin Langtian calmly stepped forward and walked towards the black stone tablet.

A faint golden light began to emanate from Lin Langtian's body.

He activated the Dragon Kun Divine Body, gradually drawing all the power within his body from the depths of his flesh and blood.

This time, he will unleash the power of the Dragon Kun Divine Body to its absolute limit!

Not far away, Zong Lin, Han Yue, and Tian Feng watched Lin Langtian, their eyes narrowing slightly. They could sense an unshakeable weight emanating from Lin Langtian as he stood there.

It feels like a majestic mountain standing tall between heaven and earth.

As the Dragon-Kun Divine Body gradually reached its peak, the Dragon-Kun Divine Patterns coiled on Lin Langtian's arms trembled slightly.

Immediately afterwards, a roar like that of a dragon and a roc emanated from its body, vibrating through its flesh and blood.

This caused the power within Lin Langtian's body to begin increasing at an astonishing rate.

Sensing the powerful energy within his body, Lin Langtian clenched his right hand and then threw a flat punch.

Roar!
The moment the punch was thrown, the resounding roar of a dragon and the howl of a kun echoed out, finally resounding throughout the ancient square.

Han Yue and the other two suddenly stiffened at that moment.

They sensed a terrifying pressure surging forth from Lin Langtian's body.

That kind of oppressive aura made their very blood tremble.

That's a bloodline suppression from a high-level divine beast!
boom!
As the three were still in shock, the entire ancient square trembled.

Even the black stone tablet, which was usually as steady as a rock, seemed to tremble slightly.

Immediately afterward, Han Yue and the other two's pupils contracted sharply, because they saw flames appear in the bronze lamp on the stone tablet, and then the popping sound of the lamp lighting up rang out continuously.

One by one, the bronze lamps were quickly lit!
In the blink of an eye, all six bronze lamps were lit!

Moreover, after the sixth bronze lamp was lit, sparks quickly appeared in the seventh bronze lamp as well.

Finally, amidst a chorus of astonished gazes, it coalesced and burst into flames with a soft "poof."

However, Han Yue and the other two didn't have time to be shocked at the moment; instead, they stared intently at the eighth bronze lamp.

Although it was pitch black there, they could vaguely sense that Lin Langtian's power was not yet over.

And it was under the watchful eyes of Han Yue and the other two that the eighth lamp remained pitch black for several breaths before finally a tiny spark appeared…

Chi Chi!

Within the previously pitch-black eighth bronze lamp, a second spark appeared... a third spark...

A tiny spark appeared in Han Yue and the others' gradually widening eyes, and finally gathered to its maximum, turning into flames with a "poof" sound, burning fiercely.

Light the eighth bronze lamp!
Han Yue and the others looked somewhat dazed at this moment. They stared blankly at the burning eighth bronze lamp, then at the young figure as firm as a rock in front of the stone tablet. The shock in their hearts was self-evident.

Who would have thought that Lin Langtian would be able to light the eighth bronze lamp!
Just how terrifying was the power of that punch?!

That kind of power, even they would probably have to use all their strength to deal with it.

However, Lin Langtian was still not satisfied with this achievement.

A golden light shot out from Lin Langtian's eyes, and then without any hesitation, he slammed his fist hard on the stone tablet, and a hoarse voice came out from his throat.

"Primordial Ancestral Symbol!"

boom!
With a low roar in Lin Langtian's heart, the ancient rune deep within his body, which had been dormant for a long time, suddenly awakened!
Primordial Ancestral Symbol!

hum!
An indescribable ancient energy quietly emanated from Lin Langtian's body.

That was not ordinary spiritual power or blood energy, but a more fundamental and primal power.

As if from the beginning of time, when all things were in chaos, wisps of chaotic gray energy began to seep out from the pores of his body, coiling around his golden, radiant dragon-kun divine body.

Gold and gray, two seemingly disparate forces, began to merge in a strange way at this moment.

The ultimate physical power represented by the Dragon Kun Divine Body resonated with the source of power represented by the Primordial Ancestral Symbol!
"What... kind of power is that?"

Not far away, the pupils of Han Yue, Zong Lin, and Tian Feng instantly shrank to the size of pinpoints!
They had never felt such a strange and vast atmosphere, ancient, desolate and profound!

Lin Langtian ignored their shock. He pressed his fist on the stone tablet down slightly, and golden dragon scale patterns and gray primordial ancestral patterns intertwined and emerged on the surface of his skin, forming an unprecedentedly complex pattern.

"At the pinnacle of power, chaos begins anew... Ignite!"

Lin Langtian let out a deep roar like that of an ancient beast from his throat, and poured the terrifying power within his body, which had been enhanced by the Primordial Ancestral Symbol and fused with the Dragon Kun Divine Power, into the black stone tablet without reservation!
Boom!

This time, the entire ancient Body Refining Tower seemed to tremble violently!
On the surface of the black stone tablet, the faint blood-red patterns that were originally barely visible suddenly lit up with a dazzling blood-red light the moment they came into contact with that chaotic gray power!
The stone tablet was no longer trembling slightly, but was emitting a humming sound as if it could not bear the weight!
And after the eighth lamp, there was the ninth bronze lamp, which remained silent as if it had never been lit since time immemorial.

laugh!
A tiny, almost invisible gray spark suddenly appeared in the deepest part of the lamp!

This spark was unlike any of the fiery red and intense light that had appeared when any other lamp had been lit.

It is a chaotic gray, seemingly containing the stillness before all things were born, yet also nurturing the vitality of creation.

"The...ninth lamp?!"

Han Yue gasped in shock, his face filled with horror.

How can it be? !
Zong Lin's face also contorted. He had exhausted all his physical strength, yet he had only managed to light six bronze lamps. Even someone as strong as Han Yue could only manage seven.

However, Lin Langtian has now lit eight lamps, and he even shows signs of lighting a ninth one!

Nine lamps lit at once!

The thought sent a chill down Zong Lin's spine.

Throughout history, only a select few have been able to achieve this; how could a mere human being possibly accomplish it!

Absolutely impossible!
Zong Lin stared intently at the ninth bronze lamp, his eyes filled with a chilling light, as if he wanted to extinguish the few remaining flames.

Surprisingly, under Zong Lin's intense gaze, the sparks from the ninth bronze lamp actually dimmed, as if they were about to dissipate.

But just then, Lin Langtian roared again, "Light it!"

Boom! Boom!
With a low roar, all the power he had previously blasted into the stone tablet exploded wildly, creating a deafening roar.

As these loud noises rang out, Tianfeng and the others were shocked to see that the sparks inside the ninth bronze lamp, which were about to dim, suddenly became bright again.

Then the flames began to spread rapidly, and finally, with a "poof," they ignited completely, setting the ninth bronze lamp ablaze.

The ninth bronze lamp has been successfully lit! (End of Chapter)
