CHAPTER 16 - THE GATHERING OF THE STRONG.

I Have A Trillion Protagonist Halos

Chapter 16 - The Gathering Of The Strong

Even the Sun God Flower, which even Fish-Dragon Realm unparalleled experts dare not consume, turned into "not bad taste" in Su Zhan's mouth?

Can a person say such words??

Su Zhaoyue felt a sense of bewilderment in life, losing her direction all of a sudden.

The fighting spirit that had risen because of chasing after Su Zhan to collect the Sun Essence Fire extinguished instantly.

Chasing after him?

I can only laugh!

I only absorbed a strand of the special fire within the Sun God Flower, while Su Zhan directly assimilated the entire Sun God Flower!

How can I chase after someone so abnormal??

Seeing Su Zhaoyue's dazed and absent-minded expression, Su Zhan felt puzzled. "What's wrong with you?"

"I…" Su Zhaoyue turned around. "I want some quiet time."

Quiet time?

Su Zhan found Su Zhaoyue's behavior somewhat inexplicable, but he didn't continue to ask. Instead, he was eager to examine his own changes.

"My physical body has undergone a complete transformation. My cultivation realm hasn't increased, but the power of my True qi has increased by thirty percent! Moreover, it seems that my innate martial arts talent has reached a terrifying level…"

"A divine body, it must be a divine body! I didn't expect that a Sun God Flower would actually allow me to achieve the Great Sun Divine Body!" Carefully examining his own changes, Su Zhan couldn't contain his excitement.

With the Great Sun Divine Body, he could harness the power of the sun in the heavens for cultivation, greatly accelerating his progress!

Moreover, his cultivated true qi was purer and more powerful than that of an ordinary person. And during battles, he could proactively trigger the state of the divine body, amplifying all his attributes, such as speed, strength, reflexes, and more.

Of course, activating the divine body state consumed a significant amount of his physical strength, True qi, and mental energy. With Su Zhan's current cultivation, he couldn't sustain it for a long time.

"The Great Sun Divine Body… as my cultivation advances, the abilities of the divine body will gradually be discovered. In the future, I might even be able to wield the power of the sun in the heavens!" Various legends and information about the divine body flashed through his mind, and Su Zhan smiled.

Although his cultivation hadn't increased, achieving the Great Sun Divine Body brought him even more joy than breaking through a major realm.

Then, within the Extreme Yang Valley, Su Zhan began to test the power of the divine body.

He executed the Cold Sword Technique, the Shattering Jade Finger, the Swift Wind Steps, and other martial arts techniques, and their power had all increased by thirty percent.

"If there's already such a significant enhancement without activating the divine body, what will happen when I do activate it?" A thought arose in Su Zhan's mind. He circulated his True qi and directly activated the state of the divine body.

Instantly, specks of golden light emerged from his body, and he effortlessly unleashed a frigid sword aura.

"Boom!" The sword aura penetrated the body of a small mountain peak several hundred meters away.

In the next moment, the mountain peak trembled violently and collapsed directly!

Not far away, Su Zhaoyue's mouth twitched as she revealed a bitter smile upon witnessing this scene.

"Elder Lin, do you really think I can surpass Su Zhan?"

"Not at the moment. He has achieved the Great Sun Divine Body, which has undergone a qualitative change in his talent. You still need to collect more special flames to surpass him!"

"Collect more special flames to surpass Su Zhan…"

Su Zhaoyue's expression turned gloomy as she murmured, "If I hadn't traveled alongside him all this way, I would have wholeheartedly believed your words, Elder Lin. But haven't you noticed throughout this journey that Su Zhan isn't even within the scope of the word 'human'? This kind of abnormality… who knows, by the time I collect the next special flame, he might have already made significant advancements?"

"…Do your best." Lin Feiyu's voice sounded somewhat helpless, and then the light from the storage bracelet dimmed, sinking into silence.

Do your best… that's all I can do.

Su Zhaoyue took a deep breath, calming her mind a bit.

Although she still had a long way to go compared to Su Zhan, wasn't she already much stronger than the useless Su Zhaoyue from half a year ago?

If that's the case, why feel so dejected?

Besides…

Why should I compare myself to a freak like Su Zhan?

It's just asking for trouble.

With this thought, Su Zhaoyue felt much more relaxed. She took out the black token and said to Su Zhan, "Su Zhan, the weakening period of the formation in this ruin is less than two days. We need to return, or else if we get trapped here, the only way out would be to wait for another three years!"

"Okay, understood." Su Zhan nodded.

He infused his True qi into the black token, causing a beam of light to appear, pointing towards the weakened entrance of the formation they had come through.

The two of them left the Extreme Yang Valley and headed towards the entrance.

…

One day later.

Powerful individuals had already arrived, their gazes filled with excitement as they looked at the entrance of the ruins, waiting for the mysterious genius who had caused such extraordinary phenomena to appear.

"Brother Chen, I didn't expect you to be here too. Your Chen family is a prominent clan in Liang Province, and you are even the elder of the Chen family. Why would you personally come to a place like this?"

"Brother Li, you're joking. Our Chen family is nothing compared to your Yellow Pheonix Sect. If there truly is a genius with the Great Sun Divine Body, I hope Brother Li can make way. Our Chen family is in urgent need of such talent!"

"What's the point of discussing these matters here? It's possible that it's not even a manifestation of the Great Sun Divine Body but the emergence of a precious treasure. Besides, even if it is the Great Sun Divine Body, such a genius would have already been taken in by a sect. It's not our turn!"

"That's not necessarily true. You should know…"

"Enough, all of you shut up!"

Just as those powerful individuals were engaged in heated discussions, a domineering voice resounded.

Mo Canglan descended from the sky, scanning the people with a disdainful smile. He said, "You lot think you can meddle in the affairs of my Sky Gate Sect? Are you bored of living?"

"The Sect Master of the Sky Gate Sect!"

"What does that mean? Does it imply that the genius is someone from the Sky Gate Sect?"

"Even if they are from the Sky Gate Sect, they wouldn't be able to communicate with the outside world within the ruins. How can they be so certain?"

Dissenting voices arose.

They were, after all, powerful figures from the major forces in Liang Province. Although they feared the Sky Gate Sect, they were not to the extent of being afraid to speak their minds.

"A bunch of ignorant people!"

Upon hearing those words, Mo Canglan didn't get angry. Instead, he felt somewhat proud and said, "Among all the young talents in Liang Province, if Yang Tiangui from my Sky Gate Sect is considered second, no one dares to claim the first spot!

"If there is truly someone in these ruins who can obtain a great opportunity and achieve the Great Sun Divine Body, besides Yang Tiangui, who else has the qualifications?"

After this statement, everyone fell silent.

Although Mo Canglan spoke in an overbearing manner, he had a point.

Indeed, Yang Tiangui was the most likely person to achieve the Great Sun Divine Body!

Just at that moment, ripples of light appeared on the barrier of the formation, and someone emerged from within.

"Wait! Today, I will let your families and sects know the huge gap between my Sky Gate Sect's genius and all of you!" Mo Canglan was somewhat impatient in his heart.

After three hours, Yang Tiangui finally walked out from the light barrier of the formation.

"Hahaha! Yang Tiangui, the prodigy of the Sky Gate Sect, has arrived—"

Mo Canglan's laughter abruptly stopped as he saw the disheveled appearance of Yang Tiangui. The smile on his face froze instantly.

Wasn't he supposed to have achieved the Great Sun Divine Body and be full of vigor?

Why was his face pale, his spirit low, and even his left hand severed?!

What on earth had happened?
