    I actually won...


    Tang Tian nkly stared at his palms, his jet ck palms werepletely scarred with burns. “Victory...I really won...”


    “Ha ha....” Tang Tianughed foolishly with his mouth wide open, showing two rows of snow white teeth while his smile was constantly expanding.


    “Hahahaha! I won! I won!”


    Tang Tian rubbed his head andughed, his charred face, and his sincereugh, he raised his both arms, shouting loudly: “WA WA WA, I WON!”


    Plop! Both legs gave way as he dropped down and sat on his butt, but he still had his foolishugh.


    This was his first real battle victory....


    I will definitely be even stronger!


    I will definitely gain even more victories!


    The young man tightly clenched his fists, and quietly said to himself. The battle was not over, there were bound to be more difficult and challenging ones, and even stronger martial artists in the future.


    Tang Tian, you can do it!


    Tang Tian took a deep breath, his eyes regaining tranquility. He sat cross-legged and began to examine his body state. During the battle, he was too upied to carefully inspect himself, and at the moment, he had to look carefully.


    Rotating the Crane-Style Qi Manual, Tang Tian immediately detected differences.


    The second Crane Body was bigger by a fold, and he could sense the minute threads of strength that were slowly being released from this second Crane Body, following the advancing steps of the Dantian pool by pouring into the third tier Dantian pool and after that, rotating around the whole body again, dispersing into his four limbs and bones.


    Tang Tian tried moving his second Crane Body, but it did not even have a bit of reaction, and continued to slowly flow.


    What a weird thing...


    Although he was not clear on how to activate the second Crane Body, the power that was emitting from the second Crane Body and entering into the third tier Dantian pool, caused the third tier Dantian pool to unknowingly expand in abundance.


    Tang Tian was pleasantly surprised. Unable to think so much, he quieted the unusual qi, and rotated the Crane-Style Qi Manual. Energy from his surroundings converged around him and entered his body, going through his meridians and transforming into minute threads of pure True Power, before unceasingly entering the third tier Dantian pool, expanding in the Dantian pool, slowly filling it up.

    “What an exciting match it was. Chain Cannon Fist is an ancient fist technique. It could actually be modified in the hands of Wang Zhen. He had such potential. It was even more surprising that Tang Tian could defeat Wang Zhen.” A nd voice said, full ofpliments, as his eyesnded on the light, which was showing the match between Wang Zhen and Tang Tian.


    倘若城主在这里，一定可以认出此人，他的合伙人，乌鸦座的伍先生！


    If the City Lord were here, he could definitely identify this person, that was his partner, Mr. Wu from the Corvus Constetion!


    In front of Mr. Wuid a series of light, each light showed moving shadows.


    “Tell me, Bi Jun died in the hands of Tang Tian?” Mr. Wu asked suddenly. Behind him, stood a respectful person. It was actually Di Han.


    “Yes!” Di Han replied.


    “What a gifted youngd.” Mr. Wu said with face full of admiration.


    Di Han said: “ording from what I have gathered, Tang Tian spent five years practising his fundamental martial techniques, and he was deemed useless. He then offended the Zhou Family and was expelled from Andrew Academy. Yet during that time, his strength improved significantly. When he sparred with this subordinate, he was much more powerful.”


    “Practised the fundamental martial techniques for five years? There’s such interesting person on Wu An Star?” Mr. Wu pped andughed. Suddenly, he thought of something and his eyes lit up: “Oh, with that being said, is there a chance that the Southern Cross Hardship te is in his hands? The Southern Cross Constetion’s Hardship te, training fundamental martial techniques for five years, it actually tallies with the traits. Also, this would clearly exin the girl’s reaction to seeing the symbol of the Southern Cross Constetion. Include Tang Tian in the list of important targets to pay attention to.”


    “Yes!” Di Han saluted.


    “My luck is really not bad.” Mr. Wuughed out loud: “The Southern Cross Hardship te. Rumor has it that it hides a really big secret. I have suffered for so long trying to find it, I did not expect to discover it here. Indeed, the heavens are blessing me.”


    Di Han did not make a sound.


    “How much blood have we collected?” Mr. Wu regained hisposure and asked.


    “Thirty two parts.” Di Han replied: “[Blood Eye] has shown some results: eighteen parts of Normal Blood Meridians, eight parts of Eligible Blood Meridians, five parts of Favourable Blood Meridians, and one Bronze Grade Blood Vessel.”


    “Oh, whose Bronze Grade Blood Vessel is it?” Mr. Wu asked.


    “Zou Kai.” Di Han replied: “God’s Might Academy head expert, Star Wind City’s ranked top seven, has already been captured.”


    “Not bad, not bad!” Mr. Wu was satisfied: “I did not expect to retrieve such an outstanding blood vessel so early. As long as I have ten parts of Bronze Grade Blood Meridians, haha, I will be able to form my Silver Grade Blood Meridianspletely, haha! The legendary Silver Grade Blood Meridians, thinking about it already makes me so excited!”


    Mr. Wu’s crazy voice reverberated around the room, giving rise to an unexpected chill in Di Han’s heart.


    “Pity though, Tang Tian is not injured. If he were, we could collect his fresh blood. I am really curious about his blood meridians.” Mr Wu’s eyes had a hint of shine.


    “Tang Tian is quite old, he is already seventeen years old.” Di Han hesitated for a while, but said.


    “Such a pity.” Mr Wu stared nkly, with a face of regret: “Seventeen years old? That is quite old. The younger the person, the stronger the vitality of the blood meridian, the stronger the harmonization. Such a pity.”


    Mr. Wu rolled his eyes and threw Tang Tian to the back of his mind: “Wait until Tang Tian leaves, then go and take Wang Zhen’s blood. Those Ancient Aristocratic Family Descendants usually have good blood meridians.”


    “Yes!” Di Han saluted.


    “Keke, sure enough, it is not in vain that I racked my brains, and found my way to Star Wind City.” Mr. Wu had a gloomy face: “No matter what, I will obtain my ten parts of Bronze Blood Meridians! This makes me anticipate so much, the legendary Silver Blood Meridians, I wonder what kind of power they will have!”


    “Ah! Tang Tian has disappeared...” Di Han, who was staring at the light screen, eximed.


    “En?” Mr. Wu regained his senses, and as he stared at the screen in the light, suddenly looked distracted, only reacting after a while with a face of disbelief: “This, in Labyrinth of Spirits, I should be able to see everything clearly, but how...”


    ※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※


    Tang Tian opened his eyes, a hint of light shing in his eyes, his True Power trembled, ‘Pa!’, countless ck particles exploded from his body, all the charred parts of his body, was all shaken off. The jet ck Tang Tian, regained his original form. He stood up with a smiling face.


    His body was overflowing with True Power. In one growth, he broke through to thete stage third level True Power, attaining a perfect condition.


    Because his True Power now touched the wall, it was an indicator that his third tier Dantian pool was full.


    Tang Tian looked at Wang Zhen who was lying on the floor, still in aa.


    “Wu, you were a not bad opponent, so I won’t steal from you. Aye, such a pity, less of a chance of reaping spoils of war....” Tang Tian pouted, he did not hesitate, looked at the cave above his head, and sprung himself up.


    As Tang Tian passed the light screen, an attractive force came from above.


    This attractive force was very sudden and surprising, causing Tang Tian to not be able to react in time, and just experience his world revolve. He did not notice that the Southern Cross Constetion mark on his palm had lit up.


    After an unknown period of time.


    Plop!


    Tang Tian dropped into water as ice cold as sea water, that consistently pped onto Tang Tian’s face. Tang Tian’s giddy and heavy head only woke up after a while.


    Yi, why is there a sea here? Didn’t Wang Zhen say that there should be a Spirit Key?


    Tang Tian looked around at his surroundings. Suddenly, he saw a little ck dot far across the sea.


    Over there!


    Tang Tian mind was suddenly roused, he immediately used a bit of True Power, and leaped onto the sea surface.


    “Wa wa wa, watch my Eight Steps Overtaking Cicada, rush rush rush, Spirit Key, here Ie!”


    Tang Tian rally cry resounded across the sea as he brought about a wall of water while running rapidly towards the little ck dot. Tang Tian’s current third level of True Power was at it’s peak, with his long enduring qi meridians, he used Eight Steps Overtaking Cicada and flew at a high speed.


    Six hourster.


    Tang Tian gasped for breath, he had exhausted almost all of his True Power. The little ck dot looked close, but it was actually very far. In the end, Tang Tian could only swim desperately across the sea towards the little ind.


    Hu hu hu... what’s with this broken Spirit Key... it’s meant to torture people only....


    Tang Tian’s heart was angry on one side, and struggling to keep his hands and legs moving on the other. When he swam nearer, he realised that, there was a very high stone wall, roughly about 5000 m across the entire sea.


    It was really magnificent!


    But, it was definitely hard to climb....


    Tang Tian had to use energy to slowly climb...


    ttening his feet, numerous blocks of rocks in front of him, spreading neatly like checkered squares, spread out all the way beyond his eyes can reach. As Tang Tian’s eyes followed the walls to the far end, he became stunned.


    Over there, was an iparably enormous army, standing across each other. The number of spears made it look like a forest, a ashen ck piece ofnd, with one look it was impossible to see the end, the army was very still, with an indescribable killing aura emitting from them. The astonishing army, did not even make a single sound, deadly silence that could cause anyone to tremble in fear.


    This this this....


    Tang Tian’s face was pale white, he garnered up courage, look at the scene before him, and still trembled in fear again.


    I, I, I....walked...walked to the wrong ce....


    Tang Tian’s teeth trembled, but he could not make any sound, as the image in his eyes, totally took over the amount of stress his heart could handle. Tang Tian’s calves and abdomen shivered in fear, as his mind went nk.


    As time went by, the army in front of him still did not move at all.


    Dead silence, it was an entire ce of dead silence.


    Tang Tian slowly regained his senses and his brain became active again. En, what is happening?


    He hesitated for a while, very doubtful, there were so many people here, so he could not even try to run.


    “Hey hey hey, where is this?”


    Tang Tian shouted while carefully moving forward, his face was full on alert, as long as he saw something wrong, he would immediately run.


    No one replied.


    Tang Tian felt that something was off, as he slowly progress forward. The nearby troops yet did not notice anything.


    It was dead silence!


    Tang Tian swallowed his saliva, he was on edge and very afraid.


    Tang Tian walked to the front of the army, then actually released his breath. After the entire day of trouble, only to find that they were not real people. Almost scared him to death! Tang Tian saw clearly, this was definitely an army, but it was an army of figurines.


    Grey figurines, life-sized, all welding spears. They were really life-like.


    Except, they did not have faces!


    None of the figurines had a face, and on each of their heads was a nk white board. Countless faceless figurines, standing there silently, with a neat and orderly formation, stretching far out, not able to see the end.


    Tang Tian’s heart shivered like never before, his face bing pale.


    This... What is this ce?
