Overwhelmingly Powerful
Having gathered enough intelligence, Zhou Tong immediately left the small market and headed towards the Boundless Mountain Range.
However, Zhou Tong walked very slowly, observing the terrain of the Boundless Mountain Range as he went.
"What a magnificent place where dragon veins gather!" Zhou Tong was increasingly surprised as he walked. This Boundless Mountain Range was simply an unimaginable Great Dragon. Once it fully erupted, it might be able to contend with Great Sage.
"Alright, according to the current information, it will be at least several more days before the Scripture Cave is truly opened. I might as well make some preparations." Zhou Tong pondered for a while, silently calculating in his mind, and then began to act.
He began to traverse this Boundless Mountain Range. With each step he took, endless Source Heavenly Divine Runes from the ground surged into the rocks and peaks. Runes flickered, moving like dragons and snakes, winding around the mountains, radiating divine light and possessing a life force.
This is no longer a simple arrangement of formations, but rather an imbuing of this mountain range with spirit and vitality, as if Fortune life, awakening the will of the gods, and giving the mountains, rivers, plants and trees a brand new will.
This is a method recorded in the "Source Heaven Book".
Over the years, Zhou Tong has been studying the "Source Heaven Book," especially his recent study of the Emperor Venerable's arrangements, which has given him a qualitative breakthrough in Source Technique, allowing him to reach a new level.
So now, this mountain range and its vegetation, this entire Boundless Mountain Range, appears to remain the same on the surface, but in reality, its control has gradually fallen into Zhou Tong's hands.
The dragon's aura surged, yet it was always bound underground by the Source Heavenly Divine Runes, corresponding to the sun, moon, and Star Scripture in the sky, silently accumulating power.
As Zhou Tong continued to calculate, he also continued to set up the Source Heaven Divine Array. All the results of his previous comprehension of the Emperor Venerable's methods set up in the starry sky were displayed here. Moreover, with the arrangement in reality, his understanding of the Source Technique became more and more thorough, and his methods became more and more advanced.
For three whole days, Zhou Tong set up the array in this Boundless Mountain Range. When the Array Patterns was almost finished, he finally set off. He did not bring the Nine-tailed Flood Dragon with him as a burden, but went alone to the place where the Scripture Cave was located.
Within the Boundless Mountain Range, the closer one gets to the Scripture Cave, the more people and beasts throng there, and cultivators are everywhere.
This incident involving the Scripture Cave has caused quite a stir. Cultivators from all races have come here, and even Great Sage have been waiting for some time. They are constantly testing the restrictions on the Scripture Cave, trying to wear them down little by little.
Whether it was Amitabha Buddha or the arrangement of the Taiyin Human Emperor, the Dao Pattern here were ultimately just engraved on ordinary materials, not Immortal Material, and had long been worn away by time.
All these cultivators did was erase the last Array Patterns, completely opening a gap.
Zhou Tong's arrival naturally attracted the attention of many people.
"Humans?" A cultivator with crimson hair and an aura of demonic power turned to look at Zhou Tong.
"The news of the Scripture Cave has been circulating for so long, and finally, human cultivators have arrived!" A man of medium build turned around and looked over; it was none other than the Divine Venerable.
He wasn't particularly tall, but he possessed an aura of quiet authority and supreme power.
"May Buddha have mercy!" A young monk clasped his hands together and chanted a Buddhist prayer.
"The Scripture Cave is of great importance. The human race has only sent one person after so long? The human race must think he can outshine all others!" A sinister voice came out, and a Stone Man sitting cross-legged on a blue stone not far away opened its eyes and looked over.
This holy Holy Spirit was at the Saint King realm, and one of its eyes was Immortal Tear Green Gold, radiating an extremely dazzling divine light that was incredibly captivating.
Everyone gasped in shock at the sight. This Holy Spirit had been sitting cross-legged here for a long time without moving, but now it suddenly opened its eyes. Unexpectedly, its left eye was actually Immortal Tear Green Gold, radiating brilliant divine light. It definitely possessed earth-shattering divine power and must be the strongest in this realm!
"That's right, I alone can suppress you all. If you know what's good for you, retreat now, it's not too late!" Zhou Tong's answer was very confident, with an absolute air of grandeur, as if it were his true nature.
Everyone was stunned. This person had some nerve. Facing so many peerless geniuses from the ancient paths, he dared to spout such arrogant words. Was he a madman?
"What do you mean?" The stone man who spoke first was the most violent, his eyes flashing with a fierce Void the Great.
"Stone head is stupid, can't you understand? I'm clearing the area!" Zhou Tong turned his head, his gaze meeting the Immortal Tear Green Gold eyes of the Holy Spirit Stone Man.
"You're courting death!" A divine light shot out from the stone man's Immortal Tear Green Gold eyes, tearing through the Void the Great and emitting a profound Daoist sound, intensely bright, as it shot towards Zhou Tong.
"Om-long!"
Zhou Tong made a fierce move, unleashing his Hegemon Fist. His aura was overwhelming and unparalleled. The purple blood energy pressed down forward like a Star River, colliding with the divine light in the stone man's eyes.
In an instant, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked. Countless weaker cultivators were sent flying backward, suffering severe injuries in the shockwaves from the two powerful figures.
"Puff!!"
The next instant, the stone man's terrifying divine light was completely submerged by Zhou Tong's extremely powerful blood energy and disappeared without a trace.
Immediately afterwards, the Hegemon Fist hidden beneath that qi and blood finally revealed its most powerful and domineering side.
"Boom!"
With a deafening roar, the Holy Spirit Stone Man screamed in agony as his arms snapped apart the instant they collided with Zhou Tong's Hegemon Fist.
This time, Zhou Tong went straight for the kill. He had secretly used the Nine Secret: Bing figure as a weapon, and his Hegemon Fist was invincible.
"Puff!"
Blood splattered as a purple fist slammed into the stone man, shattering him into the Void the Great. Blood flew everywhere, and pieces of flesh scattered in all directions.
"Ah... no!" The Holy Spirit was in despair, and his primordial spirit flew out, roaring across the mountains and rivers.
But it was all in vain; his death was already inevitable.
Zhou Tong's brow gleamed, and suddenly a vertical eye opened— the Death's Eye of the Nine Netherworld Howler.
A beam of light shot out from the vertical eye, possessing immense power, and struck the stone man's primordial spirit, piercing it through. The overwhelming death energy crushed this primordial spirit.
This scene deeply moved everyone.
The splattering of Holy Spirit blood stunned everyone present, sending chills down many spines.
This was an invincible Holy Spirit, and one whose body contained Immortal Material like Immortal Tear Green Gold. He was definitely one of the strongest beings here, yet this human Holy Spirit crushed his physical body with a single punch and killed his primordial spirit with a single glare.
Zhou Tong opened his mouth and inhaled, and the Holy Spirit blood that filled the sky, like bright and dazzling divine chains, all went into his mouth at once.
This is the blood of the Holy Spirit, which can be used to refine medicine and also to help one advance in spiritual practice. It is a rare sacred object in the world.
As Zhou Tong refined this blood, his entire body glowed, and at the same time, he put away the Holy Spirit's Immortal Tear Green Gold eyeball.
"I'm clearing the area. Everyone, step back. Who dares to disobey?"
Zhou Tong was enveloped in Purple Qi that soared into the sky, exuding a powerful and domineering aura. His entire body was glowing as he looked down upon all the heroes present.
