Chapter 377 Defeated Mack


    "Fire...where''s the fire?"


    Mack stuttered, with a look of disbelief.


    The fire on the stone men was not ordinary at all.


    Even in the Heaven-Fire killing array, the power of different kinds of heavenly fire varied. Meanwhile,


    the effect of the force depended on the realm.


    Mack had always been confident about the fire. Once, when he had gone out for cultivation, a


    meteorite fell and made a big hole in the ground. The me had burned for three days and nights in the


    pit. During this time, Mack had observed and contemted the me.


    Mack was lucky because not every practitioner had the opportunity to observe a meteorite''s me.


    Since then, the fire had be a powerful weapon for him.


    However, Mack was unable to use the meteorite''s me at will. Only after the killing array had been


    arranged, could he transform his life vitality into this powerful me and release it through the illusion.


    While the stone men was an illusion created by Mack, the meteorite''s me was real.


    At that moment, Zen stood before him, unscathed and surrounded by a strong aura. ''Why is he safe


    from the me of the meteorite? Is he immune to fire?


    No, it''s impossible! Even the legendary son of fire can''t be immune to fire. He can only offset the


    damage from the me of a meteorite after his understanding of fire has reached a certain degree, ''


    Mack thought.


    "I can''t believe the me didn''t burn you! Stone men of me,e on! Go!" Mack ordered with gritted


    teeth. The stone men rushed at Zen from all directions.


    When attacked by fire, Zen''s body would produce warm currents that would absorb the damage.


    During this time, Zen would be in a peaceful state. However, Zen noticed that the meteorite''s me had


    not changed his body much. He looked at the dense golden Sanskrit words on his body and shook his


    head.


    At the very beginning, his body had been refined by Evil Lan''s fire, then by the fire of the Earth''s core,


    and the demon''s holy fire.


    Although the me of the meteorite was powerful, its purity degree was much lower than that of the fire


    of the Earth''s core and the demon''s holy fire. Besides, since Zen''s body had reached the middle-grade


    level of a spiritual weapon, the me of the meteorite was not powerful enough to refine his body. That


    was why his body hadn''t absorbed this me.


    In other words, Zen''s body had refused to absorb the me of the meteorite, because the level of the


    me was too low. Instead of forming a golden whirlpool to absorb the me, his body had released


    some golden Sanskrit words to protect him from harm.


    With tens of thousands of Sanskrit words attached to his skin, Zen looked like a golden man. Now, he


    was fearless in the face of the stone men of me.


    A sneer appeared on Zen''s face when he saw the stone mening toward him.


    "Break!" Zen shouted.


    Then he reached out and punched them.


    "Bang! Bang! Bang...:"

    In the blink of an eye, Zen crushed a few more stone men of me.


    Now, the remaining stone men of me had gathered around Zen. With a roar, Mack triggered the


    explosion of all stone men at the same time.


    "Explode! I don''t believe you can survive this explosion!"


    In the illusion, a red me roared hundreds of feet into the air.


    Fortunately, the explosion had been triggered in an illusion.


    ording to the rules of the magic array, all the energy would be firmly controlled within the illusion,


    and not even a touch of energy would escape from it. If the magic array broke and began to leak


    energy, it meant that the magic array no longer worked.


    The soaring mested for a few seconds before it burst into the fire of the meteorite. Then it


    gradually faded.


    Mack took a deep breath. ''I made it! I didn''t expect Zen to be so difficult! I had to trigger the me of the


    meteorite that I have fostered for so long! If a practitioner at the second-grade of the nature level like


    Zen is so powerful, then I will be no match for him when he reaches the pinnacle of the nature level!''


    In fact, the illusion was Mack''s spiritual projection. Now, since he was basking in the joy of sess with


    a calm mind, the illusion was quiet.


    However, a short whileter, the wind rose, and clouds began to gather in the illusion. Mack couldn''t


    keep calm any longer. Just like his mind, the peace in the illusion had been broken. The nearby ground


    began to shake, and the cracks on it expanded gradually. These changes reflected Mack''s


    restlessness.


    "Although the me of the meteorite lit up at the same time, he remains unhurt!" Mack murmured, a


    touch of horror shing in his eyes.


    After blocking the mes of the meteorite, Zen waved his arm, and then the golden Sanskrit words


    gradually sunk into his body. He strode out of the huge hole in the ground and stared at Mack with a


    sneer. "Up until now, you have taken the initiative to attack me. Unfortunately, you couldn''t hurt me!


    Now, it''s my turn!"


    Mack panicked. What scared him was that he didn''t know what was going to happen. He couldn''t figure


    out what kind of skill Zen would use and how powerful he was.


    The best way to judge a practitioner''spetence was by the realm and cultivation level he had


    reached. Of course, it didn''t mean that one could rely on thesepletely. ess to better cultivation


    methods and weapons meant that those practitioners were more likely to challenge higher ranking


    practitioners. Sometimes, they would even challenge practitioners several levels higher.


    Even so, they would have a limit! Practitioners at the Illuminating Soul Realm would have been


    bedraggled had Mack attacked them.


    However, Zen wasn''t. It was an incredible achievement for a practitioner who had just reached the


    second-grade of the nature level.


    ''Has he already broken through the Illuminating Soul Realm? Is he hiding hispetence just for the


    Cloud Road and the reward? That''s impossible! Everyone participating in the All Peaks Competition


    would have had to pass various tests. And their skeletal age would have been checked before the


    competition. So it would be impossible for Zen to hide his real cultivation level. Furthermore, those


    elders and saints are not that gullible!'' Mack rationalized.


    Mack felt tremendous stress and pressure since he couldn''t gauge Zen''s realpetence.


    "Go to hell! Hundred-men magic killing!"


    Mack shouted and waved his hand. Then a hundred shadows appeared. They looked just like Mack


    and possessed about the same level ofpetence as him.


    As soon as they jumped down, these shadows rushed toward Zen. They waved the spears in their


    hands. Mack wanted to overwhelm Zen with these shadows!


    Zen''s expression didn''t change. The energy of the Phoenix Crystal on his right arm suddenly gushed


    and circted through his body along his meridians. Now, Zen''s body was as light as a piece of paper.


    Next, he transformed himself into a thin line and dashed toward Mack.


    "Stop him!"


    Mack ordered. He waved his hand, and the shadows stood in Zen''s way, blocking him.


    Zen narrowed his eyes, and the dragon scales in his body were half lit. Even if only half of the dragon


    scales had lit up, the energy they would release would be incredible. Now, Zen seemed to have


    transformed into a ferocious wild beast. What was more horrible was that he was not only powerful but


    extremely fast as well.


    "Puff! Puff! Puff..."


    When Zen charged forward at a random angle, both the spears and the shadows turned into starlight


    and faded away in the magic array before bing a touch of energy and returning to the array g.


    Soon, Zen had broken through the shadow wall made by the hundred shadows at the peak of the


    nature level. Then he aimed for Mack.


    As the hundred-men magic killing was not his most powerful attack method, Mack hadn''t meant to rely


    on these shadows to fight against Zen. In fact, the me of the meteorite was his most effective


    weapon. However, since it could not harm Zen, Mack meant to buy himself some time when he


    summoned the shadows.


    To his surprise, a hundred shadows at the peak of the nature level didn''t cause Zen the least bit of


    trouble. Now, Zen was charging at him.


    "Bang!"


    Mack suddenly found everything turn blur. Then he flew out and mmed on the ground.


    Outside the magic array, this round of thepetition had ended. Since no other battles were ongoing,


    the audience focused on the fight between Zen and Mack.


    Yehudi sat still and adjusted his breath. After eating the Red Cloud Pill, he needed to mix it with his life


    vitality so that the pill would spread through the meridians of his body. Only in this way could the effect


    of the Red Cloud Pill be activated.


    Now, in spite of focusing on the Red Cloud Pill, he kept an eye on the battle ring.


    Yehudi had always kept calm no matter what the situation. Because his mother was a concubine, he


    had been mistreated since he was a child. Later, he had be the best disciple of Drizzle Peak, step


    by step, through his efforts and extraordinary talent. Although Drizzle Peak rankedst among the


    thirty-three peaks, his cultivation was beyond most disciples of all the peaks.


    Yehudi had never been self-content. He had seen many high-level cultivators, so he knew that his


    achievements were not worthy of being celebrated.


    No matter what the conditions, he had always dedicated himself to his martial arts and climbed the


    peak of cultivation practice. However, he had received a setback from Mack today. Not just Yehudi, all


    the disciples from Drizzle Peak looked sullen and defeated.


    Except for Zen. Yehudi was Drizzle Peak''s principal disciple. In fact, many disciples didn''t know Zen,


    but they had heard of Yehudi.


    Yehudi was filled with shame. As the disciple with the highest cultivation level at Drizzle Peak, he had


    been defeated by Mack. And he hadn''t been able to fight back. A sense of shame, like a ghost,


    hovered in his mind.


    He felt as if a stone was being pressed against his chest and he could hardly breathe.


    If Yehudi couldn''t stop thinking in this way, he would be stuck at the pinnacle of the nature level, and he


    would be unable to make further progress in the future.


    Now, he could only rely on himself or Zen to get rid of his mental burden. If Zen could teach Mack a


    lesson on behalf of Drizzle Peak, Yehudi would be relieved.


    "Zen, you must win!" Yehudi encouraged Zen.


    At the other end of the battle ring, Master Yu was talking with Saint Yang. The atmosphere of their


    conversation seemed very rxed.
