Chapter 169 The Golden Ascension

Long Tian's voice echoed cold and ruthless, "Now, what will you bestow upon me?" as he held Qin Chen's heart. The source of this content is N0veII_bIn

The relentless rain soaked him, adding to the cruel scene. Without a moment's hesitation, he began to consumed Qin Chen's heart.

Every bite echoed with thunder's ferocity and the escalating downpour. Once white, lightning turned black, resonating across the vast expanse of the sky.

Blood oozed from Long Tian's mouth, a gruesome aftermath of devouring Qin Chen's heart. He had now fully consumed it.

He stared at his hands, sensing a peculiar energy infiltrating his body, coursing through his veins.

With each passing second, accompanied by thunderous roars in the sky, a surge of power enveloped him.

Without a moment's hesitation, he sat cross-legged, closing his eyes.

In this state, his consciousness shifted to the spiritual ocean—an expansive sea under a galaxy-filled sky, colossal black pillars seemingly supporting the entire cosmic expanse.

Yet, above the center of this ocean, turbulence with a golden hue manifested. As moments unfolded, the golden shade intensified, morphing into an unidentified object.

Gradually, the object took on the form of a serrated golden disk, continuously spinning.

However, its dimensions expanded ceaselessly, maintaining an endless rotation.

Crack!

Abruptly, it collided with one of the pillars, causing cracks on its surface. Given its dark composition, the pillar could self-repair.

However, the disk continued enlarging, its rotation accelerating, eventually slicing through the pillar and preventing any self-repair.

Its size reached immense proportions, shattering three additional pillars.

Beyond the spiritual sea, Long Tian's eyes bled, his body writhing in pain. Yet, he maintained an eerie calmness, allowing the excruciating process to unfold.

Within the spiritual ocean, the golden disk continued its expansion, but two black dragons soaring through space resisted its influence. They flew toward the disk, circling it in opposite directions.

As they soared, the dragons emanated dark energy, impacting the disk and seemingly impeding its rotation.

Simultaneously, the dragons absorbed the golden energy from the disk, assimilating it into their formidable forms.

More than ten minutes elapsed, and the golden disk diminished in size, its rotation slowing.

In the subsequent moment, the disk surged with golden light, a resounding "FLASH!" echoing across, imprinting a golden pattern on innumerable pillars.

The light gradually subsided, revealing the golden disk spinning steadily at the heart of the spiritual ocean.

Meanwhile, in the realm of reality, Long Tian opened his eyes, his body ablaze with the same golden aura as Qin Chen.

The cascading water from the shower drenched Zhou Jun's body, imparting a profound sense of tranquility to both his mind and physique.

Nearly a week had elapsed since his transmigration into this world. With no discernible purpose, his days had been consumed by relentless practice. However, the monotony was disrupted when the system, just yesterday, heralded the arrival of a new protagonist, Chu Feng, kindling a renewed sense of excitement within him.

He turned off the shower, stepping out of the bathroom with a towel draped around him.

Upon entering his room, his gaze instinctively gravitated toward the window, where the brooding overcast sky loomed, punctuated by repeated strikes of lightning.

As he observed the play of lightning, a sudden recollection of a skirmish in Tianhai a few days prior surfaced in his mind. The encounter with a peer proved to be a challenging experience, culminating in his failure to monopolize a coveted sand crystal.

Shaking off the memory, he refocused his attention on the window, where raindrops began to trace delicate paths.

"It seems like there's going to be a storm. I suppose there's no need to attend school today," he mused to himself.

Proceeding to the wardrobe, he donned casual attire. Presently, he held the status of a senior student at the Martial Arts High School in Shanghai, an institution specialized in the martial arts discipline.

About to exit his room, Zhou Jun's steps came to an abrupt halt as he suddenly sensed something.

Turning around, he spotted a man in his 40s with a firm and rather handsome face standing near the window.

Zhou Jun's expression conveyed displeasure. "Uncle Ji, how many times have I told you? Don't just enter my room as you please," he complained.

The man before him, none other than Xiong Ji, his bodyguard, remained composed. "Young master, you previously instructed me to meet you directly once I completed the task, and here I am," he said.

"Yes, but you could have waited for me downstairs," Zhou Jun responded.

"Alright, I apologize. Now, I've got what you asked for. All the information is here," Xiong Ji said, handing over a file.

Zhou Jun accepted the file, containing three documents.

As he delved into the documents, a grin etched across his face. The files held intricate details about individuals bearing the name Chu Feng.

Xiong Ji, perceptive of Zhou Jun's satisfaction, couldn't help but inquire, "Young master, if I may ask, do you have a grievance with this Chu Feng person?" His tone resonated with curiosity.

"Well, you could say that," Zhou Jun replied with a nod.

"Then, spare yourself the trouble of getting your hands dirty; allow me to take care of Chu Feng for you," Xiong Ji suggested.

"No need, Uncle Ji; I'll confront him on my own. However, I might require your assistance in certain matters later on," Zhou Jun stated.

Xiong Ji nodded, "Just summon me, young master, and I'll assist you in whatever you need," he affirmed.

"Alright, you can go. I need some time alone now," Zhou Jun said.

With a nod, Xiong Ji silently exited through the window, vanishing without a word.

Observing Xiong Ji's departure, Zhou Jun promptly redirected his focus to the files. Seated at his study desk, he eagerly opened the dossier.

"Now, I shall uncover you, Chu Feng!"
