Chapter 989 - Second Level of the Body-refining Tower

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Outside the Body-refining Tower.

The earlier uproar suddenly quietened down. Everyone looked shocked, as they watched the scene at the Body-refining Tower. To be precise, they were staring at the light spot on the screen. The light spot was lagging behind earlier, but within a short period of time, it had caught up with the other nine light spots and surpassed them.

“How can this be? Does the barrier have no effect on Mu Chen?” someone said in shock. They saw with their own eyes how Mu Chen had surpassed everyone within a few minutes and had now moved at a great speed toward the second level of the Body-refining Tower.

The top powers’ expressions changed. They were speechless, when they saw this amazing scene. It caused them to look at one another in awe.

Nine Nether stood behind them, her eyes brightening up. She released her grasp and heaved a sigh of relief.

If Mu Chen had performed badly in the Body-refining Tower, the elders in her clan who opposed Mu Chen would use this against her and accuse her of wasting the quota. Although she could ignore them, it was still frustrating to listen to their complaints.

“Brother Mu Chen is amazing!” Mo Ling, who was standing beside Nine Nether, complimented. Mu Chen’s strength was only at Grade Six Sovereign, and he was considered to be the weakest among the geniuses. However, his performance had amazed everyone.

Nine Nether smiled and looked in the other direction. The few top powers of the Heavenly Roc Clan had turned pale, especially Liu Qing. Her expression kept changing, and her face seemed to be twitching. It was apparent that she was dumbfounded by this change of events at the Body-refining Tower.

When she noticed that Nine Nether was looking at her, she grew even paler. She grit her teeth and said, “What is there to be cocky about? This is just the first level. I don’t believe that he can remain so lucky!”

She did not believe that Mu Chen possessed the strength to overtake the other nine geniuses. He must have used some devious means to get through.

When Nine Nether heard this, she ignored her. She was not in the mood to argue with Liu Qing. Instead, she turned her attention back to the screen and smiled. Her nonchalant attitude enraged Liu Qing, as it had made her look like a shrew.

“I shall see how long you can remain so cocky!”

Liu Qing grit her teeth and looked away from Nine Nether. She turned her gaze toward the screen and looked at the light spot on the forefront. From the resentful look in her eyes, she must be cursing Mu Chen.

However, it was pointless for her to curse him, as the light spot seemed fine! It now moved steadily forward at a speed that had surpassed the others. Mu Chen was about to break through the first level of the barrier and enter the second level of the Body-refining Tower!

Everyone outside of the Body-refining Tower widened their eyes. They held their breaths and stared at the screen. In the next instant, the glittering light spot disappeared into thin air.

There was a commotion when the light spot disappeared. However, some of them came back to themselves quickly and shifted their gazes upward. Many of the top powers gasped, as a light spot had appeared on the second level of the Body-refining Tower!

That light spot’s spiritual energy fluctuation belonged to Mu Chen! He had overcome the trials on the first level and had entered the second level!

His performance shocked the top powers, especially since he had lagged behind earlier But, he had obviously turned the tables around. This was the first time that they had ever encountered such a situation. Liu Qing turned ghastly pale and grit her teeth, as the people were in an uproar.

“Is this the second level of the Body-refining Tower?”

As the people outside the Body-refining Tower were in an uproar, Mu Chen, who had passed through the barrier, looked around curiously at the scene before him. He was on a stone platform, with light surrounding it. It was similar to the first level, but outside the stone platform was a deserted frozen land. Blue light filled the piece of land, and it was extremely cold. The space froze as the blue light shone on it.

A strong, bone-chilling wind blew in the area. It was overbearing. Even the stones smashed into powder in an instant.

Mu Chen gazed at the deserted frozen land and did not enter immediately. He sensed that the blue cold air and the strong chilling wind in the area was too overbearing.With the two combined together, it was more powerful than the melting red light at the first level. However, it was due to such harsh conditions that one could train up a powerful body that was invincible!

Mu Chen yearned after this and looked forward to it. He sat down cross-legged on the stone platform instantly, in no rush to enter the second level.

When he had passed through the red light barrier earlier, his flesh had been pricked. Thus, there was still some red light on his flesh, which he had to absorb completely in order strengthen his body.

Mu Chen shut his eyes, as the red light loomed around his skin and then entered into his flesh. The vital energy and blood in his body became more vigorous.

He was in this state for around 10 minutes, before he was disturbed and opened his eyes. He saw that there were fluctuations coming from afar and stone platforms started to appear, followed by many figures.

Although these figures did not appear at the same time, they looked similarly pathetic. Smoke was coming out of them and their flesh was torn to shreds. It was apparent that they had suffered much at the red light barrier.

When they appeared, they quickly sat down cross-legged and ignored the others. They heaved sighs of relief, after they had treated their injuries and recovered their spiritual energy.

After their recovery, they looked at Mu Chen instead of at the frozen land. They had different expressions on their faces. Some were curious, some were grave, and others were filled with killing intent.

They were puzzled by Mu Chen. They could not understand why he was able to move around freely in the red light barrier, and how the red light at the first level posed no threat to him.

They brushed their curiosity aside, as they knew that everyone who was able to get into the Body-refining Tower was the genius of his clan, and thus must possess some underlying abilities. They then started to look at the space at the second level.

Mu Chen shut his eyes and ignored them. He had decided that he would be content, as long as he could break through to the second stage of the Dragon-Phoenix Scripture.

The ones who had entered the Land of the Divine Beasts were the geniuses of the Spiritual Beasts’ clans. Although only a few of them were ahead of him, they were no weaklings.

But, he was not afraid of them, as he had the Heavenly Grade Spiritual Arrays. However, he knew that, with the two Heavenly Grade Spiritual Arrays, he would not be able to help Nine Nether obtain the Undying Bird’s divine blood. He had to get to the second stage of the Dragon-Phoenix Scripture first.

Once he was able to do that, he could then contend with Grade Seven Sovereigns with his physical body. That level of physical strength would be more powerful than the Divine Beasts of the same rank.

As Mu Chen thought of this, Zong Teng, Han Shan, and the rest, who were on the nine stone platforms, started to take action. They grabbed their palms, and objects with spiritual light of different colors appeared in their hands. These were special weapons with unique functions.

Zong Teng looked coldly at Mu Chen, who was far away from him, then flicked his fingers. The copper stove in his hand was inflamed, with blue flames that covered his whole body.

It was a strange flame, known as the Wind-sheltering Flame, which could prevent the wind from attacking. It was just the right weapon to use against the strong wind.

“I shall see if you are still able to catch up this time!” Zong Teng sneered. With the protection of the copper stove, he dashed out of the light cover. He turned into a green ray of light and sped off.

After Zong Teng had left, the rest of them followed. Ink Blade was the last to leave. He looked curiously at Mu Chen, who was motionless, and did not say a word. The flames on his body surged and covered him up, and then he sped off.

After they had left, Mu Chen opened his eyes. He looked at their shadows and smiled faintly. These people had been looking for treasures and were blinded by the Super Power Opportunity. To Mu Chen, the greatest treasure in the Body-refining Tower was not the opportunity, but the great effect that it had on training the body.

Mu Chen knew how torturous the red light and blue cold air were to the body. As not everyone possessed such a unique way of refining the body like the Dragon-Phoenix Scripture, they were unable to undergo such torments in such a short period of time.

“You can go after your opportunity, while I train up my body…”

Mu Chen muttered to himself and smiled. He stood up and waved his sleeve. He then stepped out of the light cover and entered the deserted frozen land.

The second level of the Body-refining Tower should be able to help Mu Chen strengthen his physical body even further. He was not far from the second stage of the Dragon-Phoenix Scripture now!
