Chapter 1097
Xiu!
The stone statue next to Ling Han instantly awakened from its slumber, and threw its fist toward him .
Ling Han also clenched his fists and responded with a punch .
Peng!
The stone statue instantly stumbled backward . Its power was nothing extraordinary, and it was at the early stage of the consummate level . However, Ling Han's power could surpass five stars now, so the might of his fist had already reached the late stage of the consummate level . Thus, he was naturally able to enjoy a crushing advantage .
However, numerous other stone statues awakened, and started to attack Ling Han . Some leaped high into the air, while others barged toward Ling Han . Their attacks were all ruthless, and none of them held back .
This was also the reason why Ling Han didn't let Shui Yanyu and Ding Ping challenge the formation—it was possible that they would be killed in one strike .
Even if one was on the back foot and wanted to exit the formation, they would need to possess an incredibly strong battle prowess in order to do so . It wasn't as simple or as easy as retreating whenever one wanted to .
There were blood, limbs, and even corpses in the stone statue formation!
Ling Han saw a large number of super-geniuses in the formation . In fact, some of them were no weaker than Xia Wuque, and they were able to defeat the stone statues using only a single hand . They appeared especially calm .
Ling Han believed that the number of prodigies that had entered this large tomb far exceeded the number that he had seen so far . This was because not all prodigies traveled alone . Some brought a bunch of weaklings with them, and some traveled with their seniors . There were also some that traveled alone, though there were Sun Moon Tier guardians protecting them in secret .
However, the Sun Moon Tier and Heavenly Body Tier elites naturally wouldn't appear in this place .
Perhaps there were stone statue formations corresponding to the Sun Moon Tier and Heavenly Body Tier as well . However, prodigies at the Mountain River Tier would have no opportunity to challenge them . They would merely be able to look on from the sidelines .
Meanwhile, the prodigies were also fighting among themselves . When this expedition ended, it would naturally be time for the Majestic Heaven Sect to recruit disciples . Perhaps many of the people here would become new disciples of the Majestic Heaven Sect—in other words, they'd become competitors . Thus, the competition and conflict between them had already begun .
Of course, Ling Han didn't attract the attention of anyone . Although he was advancing, he wasn't doing so leisurely . After all, his cultivation level was still too low .
The competition between the prodigies attracted the attention of numerous people, all gathered by either side of the stone statue formation to spectate . They wanted to know how many people could successfully challenge the formation . If there were those who succeeded, they wanted to know who had come first .
Now that they were being compared against each other, the prodigies naturally felt an even stronger fighting spirit .
Of course, it wasn't only the young prodigies who were competitive . The Mountain River Tier cultivators of the older generation also joined in on this competition, unwilling to be outdone . There were a few of them who were indeed extremely powerful . Although they hadn't been able to reach the Sun Moon Tier yet, they had cultivated their cultivation level to an incredibly solid state, raising their battle prowess through all kinds of different methods .
There were obviously no rules against using God Tools in this formation, and Ling Han saw an elder activating a turtle shell that had dozens of divine patterns on its surface . It was radiating with light right now, and it helped him block countless attacks .
Everyone was displaying their unique battle prowess . Some relied on their strength, while others relied on their God Tools . Those who had nothing to rely on could only exit through the sides lest they were beaten to death .
Xia Wuque was still heading the pack, though the people behind were already closing in on him . However, no one overtook him .
The pressure on the leader was the greatest . Thus, since they were still so far from the finish line, the prodigies all decided to follow behind someone else . They weren't in a hurry to overtake him .
"Xia Wuque is leading the pack right now . "
"Who's Xia Wuque?"
"He's a prince of the Domineering Summer Majestic Empire, and he's also the number one prodigy of the Great Growth Planet . It's rumored that the Domineering Sun Emperor specially sent him to a small world so he could open the sky and receive the blessing of heaven and earth . He'll certainly become a Heavenly Body Tier elite in the future, and it's even possible that he's a legendary five-star genius!"
