Chapter 998 (2/2)

The Thunder Marrow baptism indeed brought them benefits that were beyond their imagination.

While they were pleasantly satisfied with their efforts, Mu Chen, on the other side, had been meditating on a thundercloud. He opened his eyes, and the moment he did so, he noticed that his body was glowing with golden light.

Underneath the golden shimmering skin, his bloody body was recovering at an incredible speed. Above his epidermis, golden glowing lines could be seen, and those lines looked like dragon scales and phoenix feathers. It was absolutely amazing.

Mu Chen looked at the Dragon-Phoenix mark on his arms and noticed that the purplish golden glow had become clearer. The dragon claw had became even sharper with the purple light lingering around it. There was an extraordinary, indescribable aura emitted which was sharp enough to tear the void apart.

The phoenix’s wings had become even more beautiful than before. As it unfurled its wings, it seemed like it could fly 1,000 miles away, and its huge wings could even cover the entire earth…

In particular, the eyes of the Dragon and Phoenix had become even bigger and brighter. Underneath their eyelids, majestic golden light could be seen, leaving people in awe.

This Thunder Marrow baptism had clearly enhanced the power of the Dragon and Phoenix mark to a great scale.

Seeing this bodily transformation, Mu Chen could not suppress the joy inside him. He slowly clenched his fist tightly, converging devilish power that seemed to be strong enough to destroy mountains.

Mu Chen let out a light punch and wherever the wind of the fist passed through, the space was twisted and distorted. He was only using his mortal body to release the punch, but this weak punch could easily knock out a Grade Six Sovereign without any issue.

Mu Chen showed satisfaction on his face. It seemed like all the pain he suffered had been worthwhile. The benefits granted by the Thunder Marrow were even stronger than the overall power from the previous three levels.

However, if he had not experienced the hard times from the previous three stages, even with the help of the Dragon-Phoenix mark, he could not have survived under the extreme absorption of the huge amount of Thunder Marrow.

Upon examining the enhancement of his power, Mu Chen stood up from the thundercloud and took a glance at the aperture leading to fourth floor.

Nearby on Mu Chen’s left and right sides, Han Shan and the three others had caught up.They scanned Mu Chen from top to bottom. Although there was no expression on their faces, deep inside their hearts, they were slightly terrified.

This was because they could feel that the Mu Chen they were looking at now was way more dangerous than before.

Obviously, this guy had gone through some high levels of cultivation during the Thunder Marrow baptism.

Zong Teng’s eyes had shown some signs of chill. Mu Chen seemed to become stronger every time he passed through a level in the Body-refining Tower. Before entering the tower, Zong Teng did not regard him as worthy opponent, even though he had the ability to unleash a spiritual array.

However, after conquering three levels in the tower, Mu Chen had become more than a threat to him with this level of improvement, making him terrified.

“We have to find a chance to eliminate this guy!” Zong Teng clenched his teeth, unleashing the murderous intent within.

Mu Chen, who was standing on the thundercloud, noticed the change in expression on Zong Teng’s face. Mu Chen glanced over at the moody Zong Teng, and noticed that his eyes had become colder. Zong Teng had been creating trouble for him all this time. Perhaps he should find a chance to settle the issue.

He would have to remove this kind of enemy once and for all.

However, now was not the time. Zong Teng was nothing when it came to the opportunity given by the Body-refining Tower, and Mu Chen clearly understood this.

As Mu Chen was analyzing the situation, Han Shan was staring at the aperture leading to the fourth floor. He then took a leap and immediately dove into the aperture, disappearing in front of them.

Zong Teng, Ink Blade, and Xu Kun also entered the aperture one by one after Han Shan.

Mu Chen smiled as he saw their disappearing figures. There was a hint of expectation in his black eyes. He had already gained so much power through the previous three levels, what kind of challenges would he face in the fourth level?

He gently touched his arm with his palm. He used to have doubts about forcing a breakthrough on his Dragon-Phoenix scripture before entering the Body-refining Tower, but now he had absolute confidence to achieve that.

Once his Dragon-Phoenix scripture managed to break through, Zong Teng would not be a threat to him anymore, and it would be a piece of cake to get rid of him.

At this point, Mu Chen chuckled and hopped with his toe from the thundercloud, diving towards the aperture like a hawk and directly entering the fourth level.

Fourth level, please do not disappoint me.
