Upon hearing Zhang Xuan’s words, Gou Chen felt a profound sense of relief.
In his perspective, the fiercer Zhang Xuan’s reactions, the more anxious he became. However, since Zhang Xuan could speak, it implied that the treasure was losing its effectiveness.
Although he couldn’t comprehend why this treasure differed from Bai Xiaosheng’s description, there was no time to waste. He needed to take action immediately.
“Luhuang, go outside and keep a watchful eye. Ensure that those bastards won’t disrupt me. I must become the savior. I cannot stand by and witness the demise of the Human Clan.”
Gou Chen proclaimed with righteousness, willing to sacrifice himself for the sake of the Human Clan.
Zhang Xuan couldn’t help but give him a thumbs up.
His performance was truly impressive. It was no surprise coming from an ancient undying being who had lived for tens of millions of years. His acting skills were definitely on point.
“Master, you can’t do this. Zhang Xuan is my friend!”
Luhuang stood before Zhang Xuan, spreading his wings protectively to shield him.
One had to admit that in this moment, Zhang Xuan felt touched. Despite Luhuang’s peculiar way of speaking, he was still a loyal friend.
“Get out!”
Gou Chen’s palm strike sent Luhuang flying, causing him to roll through the Void, leaving destruction in his wake.
To prevent Luhuang from causing further trouble, Gou Chen used a powerful force in his attack, almost killing him.
Zhang Xuan’s face turned pale, witnessing Gou Chen’s heartlessness. He realized that Gou Chen was truly ruthless.
Luhuang had ventured into such a perilous place alone to find Zhang Xuan, and now he ended up taking a fierce blow from Gou Chen.
“Humph! Zhang Xuan, even if I, the king of the heavens, were to come here, I wouldn’t be able to save you this time!” Gou Chen’s laughter echoed wildly, brimming with domineering confidence. He projected his soul from his body and instantly invaded Zhang Xuan’s mind.
“Hahaha, once I take control of you, I’ve heard there are a few women in your family who want to marry you. I’ll assist you in that!”
However, just as he was about to continue, he suddenly exclaimed, “What’s happening? You… This can’t be possible!”
A small mountain abruptly manifested between Zhang Xuan’s eyebrows. An overwhelming and fearsome power burst forth, leaving Gou Chen utterly powerless to resist. The moment it touched Desolate Mountain, a portion of his soul was devoured.
A Great Heavenly Path appeared, towering to a height of 960 meters.
“Impossible? You were clearly under my possession, and I spent three thousand years refining this treasure. Why would it aid you?!”
“Buzz!”
A shadow suddenly appeared on the hill. It was an extremely old man. He looked at Gou Chen coldly and suddenly laughed.
Gou Chen was stunned for a moment when he saw the old man. Then, he suddenly thought of something. His facial expression changed drastically as he roared, “Bai Xiaosheng, you tricked me!”
Mount Tai shook. A large part of Gou Chen’s soul body was instantly smashed away. Zhang Xuan suddenly felt that his Great Dao had extended a little further.
“Argh!”
A part of Gou Chen’s soul was smashed away. This kind of pain was hard to suppress. Even someone as strong as Gou Chen couldn’t resist it.
This kind of splitting pain made Gou Chen cry out in pain.
Mount Tai seemed to have turned into a huge millstone, and Gou Chen’s soul was being grinded on it.
However, in an instant, Gou Chen’s soul body became riddled with holes.
The old man was floating on Mount Tai. When he saw Gou Chen like this, the smile on his face became even brighter.
“Please spare my life, Zhang Xuan. Let me go. I have been guarding this place for thirty million years. I have contributed a lot to the Human Clan. You can’t just kill me like this!”
Gou Chen begged for mercy with all his might. His soul struggled and struggled, trying to break free from the restraints of Mount Tai.
Gou Chen didn’t understand. He had clearly refined Mount Tai, but why had it become like this? This could only mean that Bai Xiaosheng had already expected this and had tampered with the treasure.
Gou Chen was unwilling to accept this. He had prepared for this moment for thirty million years. He was the saviour of this world.
“Zhang Xuan, let me go. Without me, you won’t be able to return from this world. Let me go, let me go!” Gou Chen roared hysterically.
He was furious, he was jealous, he was crazy!
However, all of this was useless. The millstone continued to grind his soul, grind it into pieces, and then slowly absorb his soul into Mount Tai. It then fed back to Zhang Xuan.
“Boom!”
At this moment, the entire valley shook, as if it was going to explode.
“Over there!”
Outside the valley, a surprised roar sounded.
Immediately after, the roar was endless. The boundless killing intent made the valley extremely cold, as if a cold wind that was filled with killing intent blew past.
At this moment, the endless Qi of Heaven and Earth crazily rushed towards the valley like a tsunami. It rushed into the valley and gathered towards Zhang Xuan, drowning him.
Zhang Xuan sat cross-legged, absorbing the essence of heaven and earth that was surging crazily from all directions.
The Great Dao on Zhang Xuan’s back was crazily extending.
970 meters.
971!
980!
999!
1,000!
“Kacha!”
A crisp sound emanated from Zhang Xuan’s body. The heaven and earth essence that had been wildly surging seemed to have found an outlet, and it all rushed into Zhang Xuan’s body.
The ocean’s essence flowed like a surging tidal wave, layer upon layer, forcefully pouring into Zhang Xuan’s body.
The surface of Zhang Xuan’s body radiated a dazzling light, almost turning him into a golden mountain.
Zhang Xuan’s body underwent rapid changes, expelling waves of impurities as the golden light on his body grew increasingly radiant.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for leveling up. Your current level is 100.”
“The system is leveling up. This time, it will take one month to level up. During this period, the mission module and the reward module will function normally.”
An electronic voice resonated in his mind, and soon after, Zhang Xuan’s system panel turned completely black.
However, Zhang Xuan had no time to spare for the system’s voice.
Tremble!
It felt like he was standing on a leaf, floating in a vast ocean. Any gust of wind could easily sweep him away into the depths.
Zhang Xuan felt dejected. Just after leveling up, someone approached from outside, causing the Great Dao Space to become highly unstable.
Boundless Heaven and Earth Qi surged through Zhang Xuan’s body, causing the heavens to roar. Inside the Great Dao Space, to Zhang Xuan’s astonishment, a brilliant star suddenly materialized, illuminating the sky.
Simultaneously, with the appearance of the star, Zhang Xuan’s Great Dao advanced another 100 meters.
Upon sensing this unusual Qi, the people rushing toward the location halted their killing speed abruptly. Their eyes widened in fear as they stared at the valley.
The Heaven and Earth Qi was so dense that it distorted the entire Void within the valley, making it impossible to clearly see what was happening inside.
Despite the lack of visibility, they could sense an overwhelmingly powerful expert lying dormant in the valley. They knew that stepping in would only lead to their own demise.
