Chapter 451: Chapter 353: Seven Apertures of the Human Heart (Sixth Update)

Because of Shangguan Wan’s death, Zhang Zhongmou had been heartbroken for several days. He had locked himself in his room for days, not eating or drinking. Just when Su Yu started to worry and was about to look for him, Zhang Zhongmou came out with a big smile on his face and loudly announced, "I’ve reached Level Five! How the hell did I reach Level Five?"

Su Yu activated his "Perception Eye," and surely enough, Zhang Zhongmou had indeed made a breakthrough and successfully became a "Level Five Black Iron Warrior".

Zhang Zhongmou looked a little paler and thinner after not being seen for a few days, but he was otherwise in good spirits. Clearly, Shangguan Wan’s death dealt him a great blow, but he quickly recovered from it, and even made great progress.

As Su Yu watched him, he was reminded of what Ada had told him about Zhang Zhongmou before she went into deep sleep. Zhang Zhongmou had received Chen Xuanbai’s Heart Core. Chen Xuanbai’s Heart Core was at the "Seventh Order Realm" at the City Lord level before it was damaged. Now that the Heart Core has been repaired with the God Source Stone and implanted into Zhang Zhongmou’s body, it will constantly fuse with his body. As the fusion becomes more and more perfect, Zhang Zhongmou’s strength will continuously increase. If he absorbs enough energy, Zhang Zhongmou will be able to leap into the "Seventh Order" City Lord realm without any obstacles. In fact, Ada even joked that Zhang Zhongmou might become a Seventh Stage Expert at the City Lord level before her.

"You rascal, you’ve really turned a misfortune into a blessing this time." Su Yu exclaimed as he gave Zhang Zhongmou a punch. But he didn’t tell Zhang Zhongmou about what Ada had said. After all, the strength gained from the "Heart Core" was not as profound as that gained from one’s own enlightenment. Su Yu felt that he should temper Zhang Zhongmou, making the power derived from the "Heart Core" his true strength.

With Zhang Zhongmou breaking through, Su Yu was now the only Sixth-order Powerhouse in "Freedom Village". The Level Five warriors included Zhang Zhongmou, Murong Dingyuan, Ruan Minghong, Meng Jun, and Zi Yu. The majority of the others were Level Four warriors. And, of course, there were still special individuals with infinite potential like Diudiu.

In terms of strength, there was no village within a hundred miles that could compare to them. But Su Yu understood that this level of strength was far from sufficient.

According to Ada’s guess, the "Black and White City" would summon the Dark Legion after obtaining the "Sealing Eye", and once its power matured, it would even be able to sense the locations of other "Dark Hearts" and "Destruction Horns". This meant that sooner or later, the people from the "Black and White City" would find "Freedom Village". Therefore, it was urgent for everyone to enhance their strength.

Currently, Su Yun, Ma Ziye, Qin Jiagui, Lei Rui, Zhou Birong, and others all remained stuck at the Fourth Order without being able to break through. Su Yu had also thought carefully about many methods to help them overcome this bottleneck, but he still had no effective solution. He figured he should discuss this matter thoroughly with Ada when she woke up. Zhang Zhongmou’s breakthrough into the Fifth Order, thanks to the "Heart Core", had given Su Yu some insight. It seemed that one could indeed ascend to the Fifth or even Sixth Order with external help, and after appropriate training, they could become true Fifth or Sixth Order powerhouses.

As for Su Yu himself, he had been working on his own breakthrough over these days.

He had already achieved the pinnacle of perfection at the Sixth Order, and it was time to challenge the final barrier to becoming a Black Iron Warrior and open the last door inside.

This door blocked the Gasification Mysterious Power from entering his left leg, leaving an imperfect aspect in his evolutionary state. Once he opened this last door, Su Yu would become a true Seventh Order powerhouse – the legendary City Lord-level expert.

Su Yu didn’t know how much stronger he would become after breaking through this final barrier, but one thing was certain: once his left leg gained the same mutated power as his right leg, his body’s balance would be perfected. Even this small improvement alone could multiply his strength. Most importantly, his body would undergo mutations as a Seventh Order Expert, granting his body greater functions and endurance. His Thunder power would no longer be limited to 100,000 volts, and the side effects when activating the "Dark Heart" power would be much less severe.

It felt that everything about his body was ready. However, Su Yu was still a tiny step away from becoming a true Seventh Order Powerhouse. He couldn’t quite make the final breakthrough.

Days passed one after another. "Freedom Village" was growing stronger and the number of people willing to join "Freedom Village" was also increasing. Many newcomers could not immediately form a Symbiotic Contract and temporarily lived here, waiting for Ada’s awakening.

And Ada had been sleeping for eight days.

During these eight days, two people in "Freedom Village" had broken through and become Level Five warriors. One of them was Ma Ziye.

Ma Ziye’s breakthrough to become a Level Five warrior was expected by Su Yu. Ma Ziye had quite a remarkable talent. While she couldn’t compare to Xu Ruyun, she was a lot stronger than Zhang Zhongmou, Qin Jiagui, Zhao Shichang, and others. So, it was within Su Yu’s expectations for Ma Ziye to become a Level Five warrior.

However, the other one who became a Level Five warrior was somewhat unexpected to Su Yu. This person was Ren Honglin.
