Chapter 122: Breaking Through
"Outrageous!"
The Grand Elder of the Liu Family trembled in fear, afraid that Su Zhan would be furious upon hearing those words. Without considering anything else, he rushed into the Heaven Connecting Martial Ground. His true qi surged as he grabbed the calm and elegant Liu Yu from the center of the platform and threw him to the ground.
"You, Grand Elder!" Liu Yu felt deeply humiliated and glared at him with anger.
"You step aside. I will compensate you and explain later."
The Grand Elder of the Liu Family said to Liu Yu, then turned to Su Zhan, who was approaching, and said, "Lord Su, this is our Liu Family's Heaven Connecting Martial Ground. It has sixteen special foundation stones. The more stones are activated, the more heaven and earthly spiritual energy can be attracted. The number of activated stones varies depending on the cultivator's talent and cultivation level. This is to prevent some impatient Liu Family disciples from being overwhelmed by excessive heaven and earthly energy, hence the design."
Su Zhan looked at the Heaven Connecting Martial Ground. The platform resembled a giant diagram of the sixteen trigrams, with sixteen positions and sixteen foundation stone plates. Surrounding the sixteen foundation stone plates was a circle of medicinal fields.
Various rare heaven and earthly herbs were cultivated there. When the time came, a part of the medicinal power of those herbs could be extracted using the power of formations and integrated into the bodies of the cultivators without causing the herbs to wither immediately. This way, the cost of maintaining the Heaven Connecting Martial Ground was significantly reduced.
"I understand." Su Zhan nodded and walked towards the Heaven Connecting Martial Ground.
"Hold on!"
At that moment, Liu Yu, who had been directly thrown out because of Su Zhan, could no longer bear it and said to him, "Who are you? What gives you the right to enter our Liu Family's Heaven Connecting Martial Ground for cultivation?"
"Shut up!"
The Grand Elder of the Liu Family rebuked him and, seeing more and more Liu Family disciples turning their gazes in their direction, he simply revealed the truth, "From now on, none of you are allowed to come to the Heaven Connecting Martial Ground because I have gifted it to Lord Su Zhan!"
As soon as this statement was made, it caused a wave of shock and astonishment among the Liu Family disciples.
"What! The Heaven Connecting Martial Ground has been gifted to someone else?"
"How is this possible! The Heaven Connecting Martial Ground is the foundation of our Liu Family. How can such a thing be given away to someone else?"
"Has the Grand Elder gone mad?!"
Voices of incredulity rang out.
Even the elders on the peak of the Zimu Peak came over, one after another, to inquire.
"Grand Elder, what is going on? How can the Heaven Connecting Martial Ground be given to this Su Zhan?"
"The Heaven Connecting Martial Ground is not your personal possession, Grand Elder. On what basis did you make such a decision?!"
"What about the family head? Did the Patriarch also agree?"
Before the Grand Elder could answer, Liu Yu was already furious, "Grand Elder, you have betrayed the Liu Family by doing such a thing! Just wait until I see the Patriarch. I will tell him about your words and actions truthfully! Then, we'll see how he deals with you!"
"The Patriarch Liu Badao is already dead!" Upon hearing the accusations from those people, the Grand Elder of the Liu Family retorted in anger, "Liu Badao colluded with the Sole Sword Sect from the outside world. He wanted to enslave the entire martial world in the eastern region. Lord Su Zhan killed him and removed a great calamity from the martial world in the eastern region! This Heaven Connecting Martial Ground is a token of gratitude to Lord Su Zhan!"
Upon hearing the words of the Grand Elder, the Liu Family's martial artists were dumbfounded.
Liu Badao, the strongest in the eastern region, the family head of their Liu Family, was already dead? And he was killed by a young teenager who looked only sixteen or seventeen?
What was even more absurd was that the family head was killed, and they were supposed to be grateful to the murderer???
Many people felt indignant, but soon, their indignation turned into fear.
If what the Grand Elder said is true, and even the family head could be killed, what were they?
Of course, some people, even after hearing the words of the Grand Elder, still didn't believe it and went to inquire with other elders who had come down from the Black Flame Eagle.
Upon receiving the same answer, each of those people looked at Su Zhan, who was standing at the edge of the Heaven Connecting Martial Ground, with immense shock.
The family head had already reached the second transformation of the Fish-Dragon Realm, and yet, how could he be killed?
"So young Su Zhan Could he be the Su Zhan who recently gained great fame among the geniuses of the fifteen kingdoms??"
"Su Zhan? It is said that Su Zhan defeated a strong expert in the Fish-Dragon Realm from the Clear Sun Kingdom not long ago. Now, it seems like it wasn't just a rumor!"
"No wonder, no wonder the Grand Elder made the decision to give the Heaven Connecting Martial Ground to Su Zhan! So, even the family head was killed by him!"
At this moment, Liu Yu felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
In a daze, he took a few steps back and fell to the ground, murmuring, "This can't be, it can't be. The family head is"
"I saw it with my own eyes. Could it be false?"
The Grand Elder of the Liu Family said coldly, "Now, do you understand why I told you to shut up? Luckily, Lord Su is magnanimous. Otherwise, would you still be alive here speaking to me right now?"
"I"
Liu Yu's pupils contracted, his body trembled, and he felt extreme fear. The family head was already immensely powerful, but Su Zhan, who killed the family head, how powerful was he?
And he, trying to obstruct such a powerful individual?
If the Grand Elder hadn't stopped him in time and he had said more unbearable words, provoking Su Zhan the consequences
At the thought of this, Liu Yu's voice trembled, "Thank thank you, Grand Elder, for saving my life!"
"You should thank me, but it would be even better to go and seek forgiveness from Lord Su."
"Yes, yes, I will go right away"
"Now, Lord Su is preparing to break through the Fish-Dragon Realm. Do you want to disturb him now? Are you seeking death???"
The Grand Elder of the Liu Family reprimanded, "You stay here. After Lord Su completes his breakthrough, apologize to him properly!"
"I will, I will!" Liu Yu's face turned pale, and he nodded repeatedly.
Next, the other disciples of the Liu Family were all expelled from the mountain.
Su Zhan also sat cross-legged at the center of the Heaven Connecting Martial Ground, calming his mind and waiting for ten minutes. He felt that his state was already perfect, so he began to activate his techniques and break through the Fish-Dragon Realm!
One by one, the stones of the Heaven Connecting Martial Ground lit up.
Everyone watched closely, especially Liu Yu, who had just been driven out of the Heaven Connecting Martial Ground. Although he knew that Su Zhan was incredibly powerful, he still wanted to see how much stronger Su Zhan was compared to himself.
When Liu Yu broke through the Origin elixir stage, he was able to activate ten stones of the Heaven Connecting Martial Ground. Could Su Zhan activate thirteen, or even fourteen stones?
Just as this thought arose in Liu Yu's mind, it quickly dissipated.
"Su Zhan, no, Lord Su, he actually activated all sixteen stones of the Heaven Connecting Martial Ground!"
"What's so surprising about that? If there were ten more stones on the platform, with Lord Su's exceptional talent, he could still activate all of them!" The Grand Elder of the Liu Family dismissed it casually.
With the breakthrough to the Origin elixir stage, Su Zhan could slay the Fish-Dragon Realm second transformation. If even such a monstrous talent couldn't activate all the stones, who else in the world could?
While they were conversing, the light of the Heaven Connecting Martial Ground suddenly brightened. The underground spiritual veins of the Zimu Peak, the medicinal power of the surrounding herbs, and the energy of the stars and celestial bodies in the sky, all converged towards Su Zhan!
Then, the spiritual energy within a radius of a hundred miles rushed towards Su Zhan like rivers flowing into the sea.
Around him, a massive vortex of spiritual energy formed!
"This is Lord Su's talent? Truly terrifying!"
"He broke through the Fish-Dragon Realm, attracting the spiritual energy within a radius of a hundred miles! Moreover, the power of those herbs, the underground spiritual veins, and the celestial bodies in the sky, all were absorbed to such a great extent! Isn't he afraid of being overwhelmed?"
"Lord Su is an unparalleled genius. How can we understand?"
The elders of the Liu Family, witnessing this scene, were amazed and felt a hint of anticipation in their hearts. If Su Zhan really couldn't withstand such a massive influx of energy and failed in his breakthrough, or even suffered severe injuries or death, it would naturally benefit the Liu Family.
Of course, at this moment, Su Zhan hadn't encountered any problems, so they could only speculate.
Meanwhile, sitting in the center of the Heaven Connecting Martial Ground, bearing what appeared to be an enormous amount of energy in the eyes of the Liu Family elders, Su Zhan furrowed his brow slightly.
He thought that with the assistance of the Heaven Connecting Martial Ground, when he activated the cultivation halo, he would bear a tremendous impact.
But is this all?
Feeling that his body wasn't under any strain and that the energy of the heavens and earth instantly merged into his body through the Dragon Veins' circulation, Su Zhan no longer hesitated.
In the next moment, the Sun and Stars Divine physique was activated!
