Chapter 1041 - 524: Zhan Tian Unleashed!

Right now he really couldn’t make up his mind.

Back then, after the Array was set up, in order to prevent Li Mu from leaving any backdoor, once the Array was completed, he had brought all the clan’s Spirit Cultivators and carefully inspected every inch of it.

This Array would run on its own once it was laid down.

As long as there were enough Spirit Stones, it would keep going.

Li Mu’s job was to maintain the Array core, but that required someone at Dao Realm eighth layer or above, and since the Li Family’s people were in their hands, they had just made him sit at the Array core.

Looking at it now, this Array was shady as hell!

"Damn Human Race!"

He roared curses, he never should have trusted the Human Race, way too sly.

Now that the grand formation was fully active, if they destroyed it the two races would have to face Great Yu head-on, naked.

While he was hesitating, the battle on Zhan Tian’s side had already reached a fever pitch.

Besieged by three Peak of Eighth Layer experts, at this moment he was like a man bathed in blood, a walking blood man.

Yet his old eyes were wide, extremely excited.

His mouth was even more arrogant.

"Three pieces of trash, that’s all you’ve got?"

"You two filthy races really need to be suppressed!"

"Oh right, I heard your Stone Race and the Tree-man Race ancestors even hooked up back in the day."

"I’ve always wondered, one’s a rock, one’s a tree—how the hell did that even work?"

"Insolent!"

"Zhan Tian, you’re courting death!"

Shi the Third and the two Tree-man Race experts flared up in fury.

He actually insulted their ancestors.

Even the Tree-man Race patriarch in the distance exploded, to hell with the Array or whatever, first kill this Human.

In an instant!

One versus four!

"Good, good, let me see if you pieces of trash can kill your granddaddy."

Zhan Tian shouted madly.

But...

"Bang!"

Just after he finished taunting, he took a solid punch from Shi the Third.

A punch thrown in a rage, directly punching through his abdomen, blood gushing out.

"Boom!"

Zhan Tian was blasted straight into the ground.

That moment, even Yong’an Prefecture City trembled.

It showed just how powerful Shi the Third’s punch was!

Even Chen Xuan in the spatial rift twitched at this scene, ready to step out and pull Zhan Tian away.

But he still suppressed that impulse.

"Hahahaha..."

Zhan Tian’s manic laughter came from below.

They saw him pressing one hand over the wound on his abdomen, his body slowly rising. Even with such a heavy injury, not only did his aura not weaken, it was actually slowly climbing.

"Something’s wrong!"

The Tree-man Race patriarch’s expression grew heavy. Even if he took that punch, if he didn’t die he’d be half-crippled.

How come this guy’s aura wasn’t dropping, but was instead getting stronger?

"Pop..."

"Pop..."

...

Suddenly there was one crisp sound after another in the air.

"This is...?"

Chen Xuan’s eyes suddenly widened. He knew that sound too well—opening apertures.

Six sounds!

Zhan Tian had opened six apertures in one go!

"So it’s pent-up accumulation bursting out?"

There was a trace of envy in Chen Xuan’s eyes.

But that was normal. Zhan Tian hadn’t opened his thirty-ninth aperture for so many years, accumulating all this time. Once it erupted, this result was inevitable.

"Hahahaha..."

Outside, Zhan Tian threw his head back and laughed wildly.

Six apertures!

He had now opened a full forty-four apertures, and his Sacred Body had surpassed forty percent.

And that wasn’t all!

"Realm Breakthrough!"

He suddenly roared.

"Boom!"

The aura of Dao Realm Peak of Eighth Layer exploded out. After so many years, he had finally broken through.

Late Eighth Layer!

Those four words had been nothing but an insult to him!

As one of Great Yu’s big shots, his realm had actually been a whole minor realm lower than theirs.

For someone who cared about face as much as he did, that was unacceptable.

Now... he had finally broken through.

"What?"

"You weren’t already at Peak of Eighth Layer?!"

Shi the Third cried out, looking at Zhan Tian in disbelief.

"Heh heh!"

Zhan Tian grinned. "I really gotta thank that punch of yours. Let me taste life and death, not only helped me break through, even..."

"Boom!"

Jade bones erupted with a roar, and the wound on his abdomen healed in an instant under the jade bone’s power.

Radiant jade-colored light burst from his whole body, so pure!

At this moment Zhan Tian was like a Saint.

Just looking at him made you feel filthy and unworthy.

"So this is forty percent of the Sacred Body?"

Chen Xuan’s gaze burned with excitement. This feeling... so damn holy!

"Hoo—"

Zhan Tian let out a long breath, pressing down the excitement in his heart, slightly lowering his head to look at the jade-colored radiance pouring off his body. So this was the power of Peak of Eighth Layer plus forty percent Sacred Body?

The next moment he snapped his head up, eyes locking onto the four in the distance!

The four’s faces all changed drastically at once.

In a flash!

He appeared behind the Tree-man Race patriarch.

"So fast!"

Chen Xuan muttered to himself.

Even he couldn’t sense it, and Zhan Tian moved without a sound. Even using the Rule of Space, he couldn’t do that.

"I’m quite respectful to the old and loving to the young, so let’s start with you, old bastard!"

One palm!

"Bang!"

The Tree-man patriarch turned into a cloud of blood mist.

A Dao Realm Peak of Eighth Layer expert, killed with just one palm!

Inside the spatial rift, Chen Xuan’s heart trembled, then he swallowed hard!

So damn strong!

Peak of Eighth Layer was like paper in front of Zhan Tian, pure insta-kill!

No matter how strong the Tree-man Race’s regeneration was, it meant nothing.

"Run!"

The two Tree-man Race experts wore looks of terror. Their patriarch had been killed in an instant. At this moment they had only one thought—escape!

Zhan Tian just watched the two of them flee.

"Run?"

"Why aren’t you running?"

He turned to Shi the Third.

"Can I even run?"

With that speed just now, even he hadn’t been able to sense a thing.

"They say the Stone Race is slow in the head, but now it looks like the Tree-man Race is the one with no brains at all."

"You stay here and be good, wait for your granddaddy to come back!"

With that, he vanished right in front of Shi the Third, without the slightest spatial ripple, not even the tiniest disturbance.
