131: Chapter 131 The Four Ancient Clans
Six whole hours later, Mu Cheng could no longer stand up. It wasn't that he didn't want to stand.
It was because he had no strength left in his entire body... and he clearly felt that an unknown number of bones had broken.
"For the second Breaking and Rebuilding to reach such a level, it seems that achieving the Devouring Body is only a matter of time once he overcomes this hurdle," Su Qingyan said, utterly shocked.
Peppa was also stunned. "Indeed, this kid shouldn't be underestimated."
Another hour passed, and Mu Cheng finally completed his second Breaking and Rebuilding.
"This is truly incredible. I've already reached the ninth level of Wanshi... yet I can still clearly feel an improvement." He himself found it unbelievable, feeling his entire body filled with strength.
"After enduring so much hardship, it's time for it to end." Mu Cheng casually threw a punch.
The Ice-Fire Demon Zombie was caught off guard and fell heavily to the ground, struggling to stand up.
"Is this really me? This feels great." Just as Mu Cheng was feeling pleased with himself.
Suddenly, another hidden prompt appeared.
[Warning! Warning! Warning! 59 seconds remaining until the seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth waves of the beast tide begin... Please prepare adequately.]
What the hell? Is this reasonable? Could someone have deliberately arranged this?
"What's going on... Never mind, I'll deal with it first." Mu Cheng stopped overthinking.
Instead, he suddenly burst forth with Battle Qi, striking the Ice-Fire Demon Zombie with a full-force blow at an incredibly fast speed.
This strike was terrifyingly powerful; not only was the Ice-Fire Vortex shattered, but even the Ice-Fire Demon Zombie was sent flying, disappearing without a trace.
"Good heavens, just after his second Breaking and Rebuilding, he can unleash divine power!" Peppa exclaimed in surprise.
Su Qingyan was also shocked. "It really is divine power... Even I would probably have to pay a huge price."
"What is divine power? Is it beyond the ninth rank?" Bai Xiaoxiao asked, quite curious.
Not just her, Gu Na, Tao Mumu, and Tao Shuishui were also the same, all quietly looking at Peppa.
Peppa could only explain, "Divine power... there are many, many kinds, truly a lot. But for you humans, there is only one, and it's unique."
"Stop, stop... are you talking about breaking through oneself? Could it be that those legendary figures are real?" Gu Na suddenly interrupted.
Tao Mumu also became interested. "Could it be... they're all real? Are there really such powerful people?"
"Of course there are. I am the Ice Master, and my brother is known as the strongest man—Su Mo," Su Qingyan said with a slight smile.
What the hell? There are at least a hundred legendary figures, and every single one of them is real? This... is this a joke?
"Alright! It seems this world is very complex." Gu Na clearly accepted the fact.
Actually, even if she didn't want to believe it, she had to, because she had witnessed it firsthand. First, Lu Yunzi.
Then Lin Yuehua, and Xia Lingling... these people were undoubtedly existences beyond the ninth rank, which made her have to believe.
"This... it seems Auntie Yunzi is also a divine power wielder," Tao Mumu suddenly recalled and said.
Peppa: "Be confident, she is. And you will all possess divine power in the future... your Grandpa Peppa can guarantee that."
As soon as these words came out... everyone instantly fell silent, and the atmosphere became incredibly awkward.
"Forget it... what divine power? Being able to live in this world is already satisfying," Tao Shuishui slowly said.
Su Qingyan also sighed, saying, "Indeed, to survive in this world, we need to stick together. Of course, the most important thing is for someone to be willing to step forward."
She was absolutely right; if everyone only considered their own interests, the entire world would be finished.
But thankfully, there are many, many people willing to step forward like that...
On the other side, after Mu Cheng dealt with the Ice-Fire Demon Zombie, he remained extremely cautious, staring straight ahead, not daring to be careless in the slightest.
"It really is the Four Ancient Great Clans. It seems the force behind this beast tide is not simple," Peppa suddenly said slowly.
Su Qingyan thought for a moment and said, "In that case, it makes sense that the Lin Family hasn't made a move."
"Mhm, mhm. Now it's up to that kid," Peppa said, watching intently.
Gu Na next to him looked bewildered. "What is all this... what are the Four Ancient Great Clans?"
"Yeah, I want to know too," Tao Mumu suddenly added.
Actually, Bai Xiaoxiao and Tao Shuishui were also very curious, but since Gu Na asked first, they remained silent and listened.
Peppa: "You'll know soon enough. Also... the beast tide is probably about to end."
It didn't explain much, not because it didn't want to, but because the relationships involved were too complex, and considering their current strength.
Even if they knew... it wouldn't be of much use, so it simply didn't explain.
On the other side, a super-sized chained hammer suddenly flew towards Mu Cheng, and a voice simultaneously rang out.
"Take this hammer!"
Mu Cheng reacted incredibly fast, easily dodging it...
At this moment, a green orc appeared, about three to four meters tall, entirely green.
With a round face and a plump body, he strode over barefoot with a swagger.
At the same time, he tightly gripped a not-so-long iron chain in his right hand, the other end of which was the hammer from just now.
"Kid, dare to come down and spar?"
The green orc's chained hammer suddenly transformed into a super-sized hammer, which he rested on his neck, provoking Mu Cheng.
"Then I'll play with you." Mu Cheng wasn't scared in the slightest, slowly descending from mid-air.
Competing in brute strength? He had never feared anyone, so he readily agreed.
"This guy seems to be of the Dru clan. It looks like the Four Ancient Great Clans have also paid a considerable price." Su Qingyan immediately recognized the green orc's extraordinary nature.
Peppa thought for a moment and said, "This guy is indeed of the Dru clan. If I remember correctly, his name should be Drus. But there's no need to worry; he's asking for trouble by trying to match brute strength with that kid."
"That's true, there's no need to worry about brute strength," Su Qingyan also agreed.
However, thinking of the other races, she spoke up, "But the upcoming Elf, Blood, and Angel Races will probably give him a hard time."
"Don't worry! Since it's a test of strength, their strength will naturally be at the peak of the seventh rank," Peppa said, not at all worried.
Regardless of winning or losing, Mu Cheng wouldn't be in any life-threatening danger. Of course, being able to agree proves he possesses such strength, which can be considered a good thing.
Gu Na, Tao Shuishui, Tao Mumu, and Bai Xiaoxiao, who were nearby, couldn't get a word in, even though they were listening...
Their thoughts were already focused on worrying about Mu Cheng.
Mu Cheng, on the other side, also showed no fear, instantly releasing his Battle Qi... qianji also transformed into an equally large hammer.
They went straight for a head-on clash... every time their hammers met, sparks and lightning flew.
