《The War-god of Conquering the Heavens》
Chapter 1
C1 ¨C Young Marquis
¡°Young marquis! Morning!¡±
¡°Young marquis! Buying things!¡±
¡°Young marquis! I have a rare piece of ancient jade here, would you be interested?¡±
¡°Young marquis! I¡¯ve been waiting for you for a long time, why haven¡¯t youe for so long?¡±
¡°Mei-Niang! What nonsense are you talking about? The Young Marquis is going to be engaged to Miss Wang Yan, the Great Young Miss of the Wang Family, in a few days.¡±
¡°What a pity! It¡¯s such a pity.¡±
¡°Indeed, it¡¯s such a pity!¡±
Both uttered the same phrases, iprehensible to the average person. While they tried to convey a message, Chen Shaofeng was far from foolish; he clearly grasped their underlying intent.
Essentially, they implied he was undeserving of the esteemed Miss Wang from the Wang Family.
Chen Shaofeng had long be ustomed to such insinuations.
He paid no mind to the nearby shops and vendors.
Their continued politeness was solely due to his identity as Chi Yunhou¡¯s son.
Without that status, many wouldn¡¯t even deign to look his way.
Chen Shaofeng was fully aware of their motives and sentiments. Yet, he brushed it aside, remaining unperturbed by their views.
His primary concern was Wang Yan¡¯s perspective. As for the rest, they could opine as they pleased!
¡°Chen Shaofeng! Stop right there.¡±
Just as Chen Shaofeng was preparing to depart, a voice beckoned him from behind.
He pivoted to identify the caller and upon recognition, his brow furrowed, questioning, ¡°What do you want?¡±
¡°Chen Shaofeng! I suggest you forget about my sister. She¡¯s beyond the reach of someone like you.¡±
The individual confronting him was Wang Ze, the second heir of the Wang Family.
Their animosity was a recent development, sprouting after Chen Shaofeng¡¯s breakthrough at age ten. Prior to that, Wang Ze had revered Chen Shaofeng, addressing him affectionately as his elder brother.
Wang Ze¡¯s demeanor shifted drastically when he learned of Chen Shaofeng¡¯s inability to progress to the truth realm. He began demeaning him and persistently thwarted his attempts to see Wang Yan.
¡°Regardless of my ws, you¡¯re no match for me,¡± Chen Shaofeng retorted stoically.
¡°I¡¯ll teach you a lesson on behalf of my sister!¡±
Without hesitation, Chen Shaofeng initiated an attack. Despite his limitations in reaching the truth realm, his mastery in Qi Refining was unparalleled. He was confident in overpowering an opponent yet to reach the truth realm.
But to his astonishment, before he could react, he was propelled into the air,nding with a harsh thud as blood stained the surroundings.
¡°How is this possible?¡±
Until now, Chen Shaofeng still had not reacted to what had happened.
¡°Idiot!¡± Do you see me as insignificant as you? Let me rify something: a month ago, I already advanced to the preliminary phase of the Nascent Soul stage,¡± Wang Ze said with palpable contempt.
Hisughter was bold and unapologetic, the taunting look on his face unmistakable.
Chen Shaofeng found himself on the ground, his face shadowed with anger. Over thest seven years, he had been on the receiving end of countless taunts and humiliations.
What made this more painful was the identity of his assant ¨C Wang Ze, the blood brother of Wang Yan, who had always trailed behind him, addressing him as ¡®Big Brother.¡¯
Presently, being overpowered by Wang Ze was a hard pill for him to swallow.
Yet, reality was what it was. His only option now was to immerse himself in cultivation, striving to reach the truth realm.
The body refining phase for martial artists consisted of nine specific stages: skin refining, flesh refining, blood refining, bone refining, marrow refining, meridians refining, essence refining, andstly, true essence.
Each of these stages had its own sub-stages: initial, middle,te, and great perfection.
This was the pivotal step before advancing to the Xiantian realm, marking the beginning of the Xiantian transition phase.
Thus, reaching the truth realm was a monumental challenge. Some never attain this in their lifetime, while even prodigies might require a couple of years for a breakthrough.
In the past, this is where Chen Shaofeng hit a wall. To this day, he remains baffled: why does his energy always vanish when he¡¯s on the brink of a breakthrough?
He didn¡¯t understand, really didn¡¯t understand.
He had consistently sought this answer, yet it always eluded him.
It must be understood that before one steps into the true realm, the difference between the two states is immeasurable. This exins why, with just a beginner¡¯s experience in the true realm, Wang Ze could effortlessly knock down Chen Shaofeng.
In that instant, observing Wang Ze¡¯s conceited expression, Chen Shaofeng wished he could retaliate with a blow.
However, Chen Shaofeng recognized that given his present capabilities, such an act was unfeasible. His only option was to bear the insult quietly.
A silver lining was that someone empathized with him ¨C Wang Yan, his childhoodpanion and fianc¨¦e through an arrangedmitment.
Yet, Wang Ze¡¯s utterances soon made him question this reassurance.
¡°Chen Shaofeng! My sister has not only reached the truth realm but surpasses even me in strength. I am here on her behalf, rying her message: she deems you unworthy and refuses to wed someone she sees as beneath her.
In a short time, she¡¯ll join the esteemed Great Tang Academy, elevating her status further. It¡¯s clear you two are worlds apart. For your own good, perhaps you should willingly break off the engagement.¡±
¡°Do you expect me to fall for such an obvious deception?¡± Rising from the ground, Chen Shaofeng responded with a scoff.
He found it hard to believe Wang Yan would act so coldly and opted to dismiss Wang Ze¡¯s ims.
¡°At this moment, it¡¯d take merely a hand to best you. Why would I resort to deception?¡± Wang Ze retorted with a chillingugh.
Chen Shaofeng¡¯s demeanor shifted, but he countered, ¡°I might be persuaded, but only if your sister herself delivers the message.¡±
¡°Indeed, some won¡¯t see reason until faced with dire consequences. Very well, bear the consequences of your disbelief.¡±
Being inherently impetuous and having an aversion to Chen Shaofeng, Wang Ze¡¯s temper red upon hearing this defiance, leading him to strike Chen Shaofeng directly.
¡°Am I afraid of you?¡±
While Chen Shaofeng hadn¡¯t yet achieved the truth realm, his years at the pinnacle of the Qi Refining stage had granted him significant strength.
So, as Wang Ze¡¯s punch approached, Chen Shaofeng retaliated with a powerful punch of his own.
Given his advanced Qi Refining capabilities, Chen Shaofeng had no choice but to give it his all; otherwise, he¡¯d be the one taking damage from Wang Ze.
On the other hand, Wang Ze underestimated Chen Shaofeng, not utilizing even half of his potential power when striking.
In Wang Ze¡¯s view, Chen Shaofeng¡¯s capabilities were no match for his. He believed that using less than half his strength was sufficient to counter him.
But was that really the case?
What Wang Ze seemed to overlook was that although he had entered the initial phase of the Nascent Soul Stage, it was a recent advancement.
Despite Chen Shaofeng¡¯s standing at the zenith of the Refinement Realm and having held that position for many years, Wang Ze erroneously thought he could overpower him using less than half his strength.
Chapter 2
C2 ¨C Mountain & Sea Space
Hence, Wang Ze was in for a tragedy.
Instead of confronting the punch directly, Chen Shaofeng skillfully dodged it. Using his full force, he swiftly counterattacked, aiming a punch at Wang Ze.
Bang!
His blow connected with Wang Ze, making him wince in pain.
Before Wang Ze could even react, Chen Shaofeng had already retracted his fist and moved to a safer distance.
Anger! Iparable rage!
Wang Ze was taken aback; he hadn¡¯t expected to be assaulted by someone from the peak of the Qi Refining stage when he himself was an early-stage Nascent Soul martial artist. Though the hit wasn¡¯t severely damaging, it was certainly more than he¡¯d anticipated.
Boom!
Immediately, a fierce energy emanated from Wang Ze. The power of his early Nascent Soul stage pressed heavily onto Chen Shaofeng, making him stagger and slowing his actions.
In his rage, Wang Ze unleashed his full might. He rapidly closed the distance between them andnded a powerful punch on Chen Shaofeng¡¯s midsection. Boom!
Bang!
Chen Shaofeng was thrust backward with force, crashing directly into the nearby stalls.
The sudden impact startled the stall owner, prompting him to swiftly move aside.
Yet, Wang Ze¡¯s rage remained unsated. He approached Chen Shaofeng once more, seizing him andnding another punch, propelling him again into a different spot.
In a short span, Chen Shaofeng was bruised and battered, with blood constantly oozing from his mouth.
His saliva mingled with the pouring blood, presenting a pitiful sight.
¡°You fiend! Worm! How dare you strike me? Try that again if you dare.¡±
Wang Ze¡¯s fury was palpable.
But once his temper subsided, he refrained from further assault. Observing the battered Chen Shaofeng, he felt a deep sense of satisfaction.
He realized that Chen Shaofeng, in his present state, was beneath his notice.
Any further attack would merely demean himself.
Besides, Chen Shaofeng was the Young Marquis of the Chi Yunhou¡¯s mansion. Overstepping might draw unwanted ire from the Chi Yunhou, a situation even the Wang Family would prefer to avoid.
Thus, Wang Ze only cautioned Chen Shaofeng: ¡°This was just a warning. Harass my sister again, and the consequences will be dire.¡±
The sheer audacity of Wang Ze¡¯s remark incensed Chen Shaofeng immensely.
¡°Wang Ze! Regardless of being Wang Yan¡¯s younger sibling, I won¡¯t spare you. Someday, you¡¯ll realize that I stand on a pedestal you¡¯ll never reach.¡±
Wang Ze retorted with a smirk, ¡°We shall see, though I doubt you¡¯ll get the opportunity.¡±
With that, Wang Ze left.
Guided by the onlookers, Chen Shaofeng made his exit.
Instead of heading straight to the Marquis¡¯s Mansion, he decided against it, considering his current state might evoke ridicule. He instead proceeded to his usual training spot behind the mountains and started his cultivation.
Wang Ze¡¯s derision and attack intensified Chen Shaofeng¡¯s cultivation drive, regardless of its significance.
To his surprise, this session felt unique. It seemed the cultivated Zhen Qi lingered a bit, even if just a trace, which uplifted his spirits.
In the days leading up to the engagement, Chen Shaofeng dedicated his nights to cultivating in this secluded mountain, steering clear of the Marquis¡¯s Mansion.
After such relentless efforts, he felt invigorated with pure energy, having ascended to the Xiantian realm.
¡°Atst, I¡¯ve stepped into the initial phase of the True Initiation realm!¡± eximed Chen Shaofeng.
But as his exhration peaked, anguid voice echoed in his mind, ¡°Why the fuss? Is reaching the ninth level of Body Refinement Cultivation such a big deal? Clearly, you¡¯re a novice to the vast world.¡±
¡°Who? Who¡¯s here?¡±
Chen Shaofeng was shocked, he looked around, but no matter how hard he tried to find the source of the sound, he couldn¡¯t find it.
¡°There¡¯s no need to look for it! I¡¯m with you.¡± Thezy voice continued.
¡°On him?¡± Chen Shaofeng was immediately puzzled.
¡°Idiot! I am the picture you are carrying.¡± The voice said angrily.
Painting?
It was only at this moment that Chen Shaofeng recalled having a painting with him, a gift from his mother during his childhood.
The artwork portrayed a scenic view titled the ¡°Mountain and Sea Map,¡± showcasing nature¡¯s vast mountains and rivers. However, it seemed like a rathermon piece of art.
As the painting crossed his mind, he remembered its depiction. Concurrently, he observed that his current surroundings were altering, appearing unlike the mountain behind the Marquis¡¯s Mansion.
The transformation urred so swiftly that he barely had time to process it.
¡°Where am I?¡± Chen Shaofeng inquired, looking around with uncertainty.
¡°You are inside the Mountain and Sea Map, or what can be termed as the Mountain and Sea Space.¡±
It was then that he heard the voice again, and upon looking closely, noticed a diminutive figure glowing with a white radiance before him. The figure was approximately the height of a pre-teen.
¡°What exactly is the Mountain and Sea Space? And who are you? Why have I been brought here?¡± Chen Shaofeng fired off multiple questions at once.
¡°The Mountain and Sea Map you possess is far from a mere painting. It¡¯s a Spatial Weapon, designed to aid warriors during their training.¡±
After a brief pause, the figure replied, ¡°I am the Artifact Spirit of the Mountain and Sea Map. You may address me as Brother Hai.¡±
The Mountain and Sea Map¡¯s spirit, now with a hint of weariness in its tone, continued, ¡°Truly, you¡¯ve been rather disappointing. I took nearly eight years to awaken, and during that time, your progress was minimal given the duration. What¡¯s so remarkable about you, I wonder?¡±
Upon hearing this, Chen Shaofeng immediately eximed, ¡°What did you just say? Are you implying that you¡¯ve absorbed all the energy I¡¯ve cultivated over thest eight years? Was it you who rendered me powerless all these years?¡±
His rage was palpable. Chen Shaofeng, unable to contain his anger, grabbed the luminous white entity, demanding, ¡°Give me back my strength! Return what¡¯s rightfully mine, you fiend!¡±
¡°Why such fury? Even if you¡¯ve felt weak for eight years, it wasn¡¯t without its gains. At the very least, your resilience has improved. That¡¯s crucial for strength.¡±
¡°Furthermore, I took your strength for your benefit. Without my intervention, could you have essed this Mountain and Sea Space? You¡¯ve yet to realize the advantages of this space, which could help you evolve into a genuine master,¡± retorted the small white figure.
¡°Evolve into a master swiftly? How so?¡±
Though this Artifact Spirit had drained the essence of his cultivation from the past seven-plus years, he hadn¡¯t yet breached the realm of truth.
Yet, if this meant he could swiftly rise to formidable power, enduring the mockery and disdain of the past years would have been worthwhile.
¡°The intensity of the spiritual essence within the Mountain and Sea Space is akin to a sanctified haven. A day of cultivation here equates to the progress of dozens, even hundreds of days outside. But, the truly unique attribute of this space is the time dtion,¡± elucidated the Artifact Spirit.
¡°Time dtion?¡± Chen Shaofeng queried with skepticism.
¡°The flow of time in the Mountain and Sea Space differs from the external world. A single day outside corresponds to a hundred days here.¡±
The Artifact Spirit ryed this as if discussing a mundane topic, her demeanor the epitome of tranquility.
Chapter 3
C3 ¨C Perfection
In that moment, Chen Shaofeng¡¯sposure wavered as he eximed, ¡°A hundred days? Does that mean I previously only needed one day to cultivate? With my natural aptitude, given enough time, I could swiftly progress not just to the truth realm but even to the Innate Stage.¡±
¡°But, if it works like that, cultivating here for a century, which equates to just a year outside, would that not elevate me to an unmatched master?¡±
A gleam of excitement appeared in Chen Shaofeng¡¯s eyes.
¡°Such a naive thought! Mastery isn¡¯t born from mere practice; it¡¯s shaped in battle.¡±
At this, the Artifact Spirit addressed him, saying, ¡°Reaching the Innate Stage might be usible, but surpassing it requires more than just self-cultivation. You should reconsider this aspiration.¡±
While what the Artifact Spirit conveyed was factual, Chen Shaofeng wasn¡¯t disheartened. With this space-time advantage that magnified his growth by a hundredfold, he was sure of hastening his journey to prowess.
Yet, a nagging concern arose: if he prolonged his cultivation in this space, would he age faster? When his life drew to a close, regret might be his onlypanion.
Picking up on Chen Shaofeng¡¯s apprehensions, the Artifact Spirit rified, ¡°The Mountain and Sea Space, while fast-forwarding time, won¡¯t genuinely hasten your biological aging. Be at peace with this aspect.¡±
¡°So, that¡¯s the mechanism! Now, I can cultivate with a peaceful mind!¡± Chen Shaofeng sighed in relief.
¡°Very well, focus on your training! Even though I¡¯m now awakened, I rely on your energy. Hence, you mustn¡¯t neglect your cultivation. To achieve a speed boost of a hundredfold, I must recuperate. Currently, I can only amplify my speed by a maximum of tenfold,¡± the Artifact Spirit advised.
Chen Shaofeng was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Initially, he believed he could immediately advance to the Innate Stage. However, even at ten times the regr speed, achieving the Innate Stage in the next two days seemed unlikely.
Still, multiplying his progress by ten was significant. It meant he could condense twenty days of cultivation into two, which would be enough to elevate him to a more advanced level.
Pondering this, Chen Shaofeng wasted no time and began his cultivation.
Prior to entering the truth realm, the focus was mainly on amplifying one¡¯s physical prowess. But upon reaching this realm, practitioners would harness specific cultivation techniques.
Chen¡¯s lineage had bestowed upon him the ¡°Scarlet Cloud Art.¡± While it was a mid-tier technique within the fifth rank of the Yellow Level ¨C neither exceptionally potent nor overly feeble ¨C it was a rarity in Nanshan County.
Chen Shaofeng was confident that with the Scarlet Cloud Art, he¡¯d reach the Innate Stage much faster.
This particr location even had the gift of time dtion. Here, two days felt like twenty.
Within this stretched timeframe, Chen Shaofeng¡¯s might grew exponentially, having recently ascended to the early phases of the Nascent Soul Stage.
It wasn¡¯t surprising. Given his profound knowledge base, advancing to the pinnacle of true qi in mere days was expected.
The Innate Stage realm was now tantalizingly within reach.
Yet, as close as it appeared, the final leap to this realm wasn¡¯t a feat to be achieved overnight.
Having touched the zenith of True Perfection, Chen Shaofeng paused his cultivation. He queried the nearby Artifact Spirit, ¡°How much time has passed during my cultivation?¡±
The Artifact Spirit replied, ¡°Merely fifteen days.¡±
¡°Is that so? I¡¯ll continue for a bit more. While further realm advancements might be elusive, honing my Martial Skills remains an option.¡±
Chen Shaofeng had been bequeathed two martial arts techniques by his father, Chi Yunhou. Among them was the Crimson me Fist ¨C a formidable extension of the Scarlet Cloud Art, characterized by its immense power.
It resembled conventional Fist Arts. With consistent practice and the backing of the Scarlet Cloud Art, mastering the Crimson me Fist would be straightforward for Chen Shaofeng.
Time flew, and within what felt like two days, his proficiency with the Crimson me Fist reached its nascent stage.
Now wielding formidable strength in each punch, he shifted his focus from the Crimson me Fist to another martial technique.
And this other martial skill was a movement martial skill.
The capital set aside by Chi Yunhou Chen Liuyuan for his son was significant. The technique he practiced was named Cloud Walk.
True to its name, Cloud Walk mirrored the erratic movement of clouds, ever drifting. Its essencey in its mysterious nature, seeming both tangible and intangible, perplexing even those who witnessed it.
Chen Shaofeng dedicated considerable time mastering Cloud Walk. Only after a nudge from the Artifact Spirit did he grasp its core significance.
Though Cloud Walk might not be perceived as top-tier, its utility was undeniable. At its peak performance, it surpassed the speed of a standard Innate Mortal Martial practitioner.
Consequently, should he face a more formidable opponent in days toe, he would have little to fear.
It took Chen Shaofeng three exhaustive days to advance Cloud Walk to the Initial Stage. Sensing the right moment, he ceased his training and exited the Mountain and Sea Space.
Once outside, he rejoined the bustling street. He noted a general movement in a singr direction, which stirred his impatience.
Deep down, he recognized the significance of the day ¨C his engagement to Wang Yan.
Despite Wang Ze¡¯s previous remarks, Chen Shaofeng remained optimistic about the day. His faith in Wang Yan remained unwavering.
His trust in Wang Yan was rooted in their shared history. He felt he knew her intimately and was confident she would honor their engagement.
With a mix of anticipation and anxiety, Chen Shaofeng made his way to the Chi Yunhou¡¯s residence.
¡°¡¡±
Today, Chi Yunhou¡¯s residence was adorned with numerousnterns and festive decorations. The household staff bustled about, attending to their tasks in an atmosphere of lively enthusiasm.
A sense of joy was palpable on every face, from the lowliest servant to the Marquis himself. The reason for the jubtion was clear: today marked the wedding day of their Young Marquis, Chen Shaofeng, Chi Yunhou¡¯s son.
The bride-to-be, Wang Yan, held the esteemed position of being from the highest-ranking family in Nanshan County.
The anticipation for this engagement was universally high, symbolizing the alliance of two powerful families. A sessful engagement would unite the Chi Yunhou household and the Wang Family, capturing the attention of various other influential families, particrly the other two major families within Nanshan County.
In addition, several ns neighboring Nanshan County had also hurriedly made their way to the event.
These guests were not merely present for ceremonial congrattions. Their intention was to gauge the shifting dynamics within Nanshan County to strategize for future moves.
¡°Young Duke, you¡¯ve returned atst! Lord Hou has been eagerly awaiting your arrival. Please go to your room to change attire before proceeding to the main hall; our guests have already gathered.¡±
As Chen Shaofeng approached the entrance to the Marquis¡¯s mansion, a servant greeted him.
¡°Understood. Inform my father that I¡¯ll be there momentarily.¡±
Fully aware of the significance of the pending engagement, Chen Shaofeng knew he had just two hours left before the auspicious time for the ceremony¡ªa sufficient window for him to make his way there.
Without dy, he returned to his quarters to change into formal wear and then made his way to the main hall.
Chapter 4
C4 ¨C Annul Engagement for Marriage
The grand hall buzzed with anticipation and excitement. Nearly everyone expected had already arrived, with only the main figure of the engagement banquet yet to make an appearance.
On one side stood Chen Shaofeng, while the other side was reserved for the Wang Family. Oddly enough, on this significant asion, no member of the Wang Family had arrived early, raising suspicions for Chi Yunhou.
Given the importance of the event, the Wang Family¡¯s absence during the engagement ceremony was puzzling, leading some to wonder about its authenticity.
¡°Father!¡±
Soon after, Chen Shaofeng, the evening¡¯s main figure, entered the hall.
The attendees reacted to Chen Shaofeng¡¯s entrance with varied expressions. Some disyed sympathy, others disapproval, and a few even looked down upon him.
Yet, the prevailing sentiment was that Wang Yan deserved better.
Known as the most beautiful woman in Nanshan County, Wang Yan was not only stunning but also immensely talented.
While Chen Shaofeng was once seen as a prodigy, he hadn¡¯t advanced in the truth realm for seven years. To many, it seemed he had reached his potential, making further progress unlikely. They regarded him as unremarkable, deeming Wang Yan too exceptional for him.
Still, this event took ce in Chi Yunhou¡¯s residence. Despite Chen Shaofeng¡¯s perceived shorings, he had a formidable father. Thus, the union between the Wang Family and Chi Yunhou¡¯s household seemed apt.
¡°Why are you just getting here? The moment we¡¯ve been waiting for is nearly upon us,¡± Chen Liuyuan scolded.
¡°The training held me up!¡± Besides, the Wang Family representatives aren¡¯t here yet,¡± Chen Shaofeng responded nonchntly.
¡°You mean you¡¯ve been cultivating? Have you managed to break through?¡± Chen Liuyuan questioned with a hint of skepticism.
He was acutely aware that Chen Shaofeng had lost his motivation to progress in his cultivation since failing to advance to the Nascent Realm seven years prior. Chen Shaofeng hadn¡¯t dedicated time to cultivate, not even sparing a few hours.
Chen Shaofeng nodded quietly, affirming, ¡°Yes, I¡¯ve broken through. We¡¯ve achieved the pericelestial stage.¡±
¡°Excellent! Wonderful!¡± Chen Liuyuan eximed, bursting intoughter.
Lao Chen, the steward standing nearby and a close confidant of Chen Liuyuan, joyfullymented, ¡°Honors to the Marquis! Warmest congrattions! Today is indeed a day of joy!¡±
¡°A double reason to celebrate! Well spoken, Lao Chen! Hahaha!¡±
Chen Liuyuan¡¯s tion was evident. It was understandable, given that Chen Shaofeng¡¯s struggles with cultivation had always weighed heavily on his mind. With this breakthrough, Chen Liuyuan¡¯s worries were alleviated.
¡°Master Hou! The Wang Family delegation has arrived!¡±
At that instant, a servant approached and delivered a message with reverence.
¡°Excellent! Truly wonderful! Such a splendid asion deserves our immediate attention. Let¡¯s hasten to greet them,¡± eximed Chen Liuyuan with joy.
The rest of the group, radiant with smiles, proceeded towards the main entrance.
Shortly after, as anticipated, the figures of Wang Yan and her father appeared. However, upon their arrival, Chen Liuyuan¡¯s joyful demeanor shifted abruptly.
He noticed that the duo, Wang Yan and Wang Jianming, were not donned in the outfits provided by the Marquis¡¯s Mansion. Additionally, to his surprise, they were the only visitors to the mansion that day.
Nheless, Chen Liuyuan put his thoughts aside and cordially greeted, ¡°Brother Jian Ming! It¡¯s been a while, hasn¡¯t it?¡±
Wang Jianming seemed indifferent to Chen Liuyuan¡¯s greeting. Meanwhile, Wang Yan stepped forward, saying, ¡°Uncle Chen, there¡¯s a matter we¡¯d like to discuss privately, if possible.¡±
¡°We¡¯re soon to be rtives. Is there something you can¡¯t share openly? Please, let me know how I can assist,¡± responded Chen.
Sensing something off, Chen Liuyuan was left pondering, unable to pinpoint the unease.
¡°Uncle Chen,¡± began Wang Yan, ¡°our visit to the Marquis¡¯s Mansion today is not to confirm our engagement, but rather to call it off.¡±
Wang Yan spoke in a gentle whisper, devoid of any evident emotion. Yet, her words resonated like a stone thrown into a serene pond, creating countless ripples.
The attendees were all esteemed figures. The decision of the Wang Family to annul the engagement at such a juncture hinted at their intention to sever ties with Chi Yunhou¡¯s household. Such a stark confrontation was unparalleled.
¡°Wang Jianming! What are you implying? Do you view my Chi Yunhou as a mere jest? You dare to trifle with me; is this a death wish?¡±
At this, Chen Liuyuan¡¯splexion paled, rage surging forth.
Chen Shaofeng¡¯s face also showed profound shock. He suddenly remembered Wang Ze¡¯s words from days prior; could they be true?
¡°Yan¡¯er!¡± Is this the truth? Your words and Wang Ze¡¯s words aren¡¯t urate, right?¡±
Chen Shaofeng couldn¡¯t fathom Wang Yan betraying him; he thought perhaps she was merely jesting.
Wang Yan fixed Chen Shaofeng with a frosty, impassive stare. ¡°Chen Shaofeng! I owe you much gratitude. Without you, my progress to the mid-stages of the truth realm would not have been so rapid. My opportunity to join the Great Tang Academy is all due to you.¡±
Now, Wang Yan looked at him without any warmth, her gazeced with mockery.
How could Chen Shaofeng be oblivious to the truth? That Wang Ze¡¯s ims were urate? Wang Yan¡¯s feelings were perhaps never reciprocated. His faux attachment to Wang Yan was merely to gain cultivation resources from the Chi Yunhou estate.
This would assist her in essing the truth realm and elerate her progression to the Innate Stage.
His realization filled him with rage, eximing, ¡°Wang Yan! I never imagined you to be this way. If you didn¡¯t care for me, why did you agree to our engagement? Is it all for power?¡±
With a frigid tone, he responded, ¡°Initially, I acknowledged your unmatched talent and genuinely wanted to be by your side. Yet, since you reached the peak of Qi Refining at ten, it¡¯s been nearly seven years for you to touch the true realm. Do you expect me to wait another seven?¡±
¡°Chen Shaofeng, face the truth! You haven¡¯t progressed in seven years, seemingly trapped in the Qi Refining phase forever. Advancing further, especially to the Innate Stage, seems unlikely for you.¡±
¡°Had it not been for the pills you provided aiding my cultivation and the lingering hope I felt, I¡¯d have suggested breaking off our engagement long ago. Today, with the elite of Nanshan County present, seems an opportune moment. It spares me another appearance to exin.¡±
Wang Yan¡¯s definitive stance pierced Chen Shaofeng¡¯s heart like a sharp de. He never envisioned things turning out this way.
It appeared all their past interactions were mere pretense. In her eyes, Chen Shaofeng was nothing more than worthless.
His heart was torn, and the agony he felt was known only to him.
He held back his tears, believing she didn¡¯t merit them. All he felt was a profound chill.
His gaze grew distant and hollow. Oblivious to his environment, the sole focus was Wang Yan¡¯s indifferent, frosty face.
Chapter 5
C5 ¨C Crown Prince
¡°Okay,¡± Wang Yan said with a neutral expression. ¡°We¡¯ve concluded our conversation. I hope we can part ways now without being forced.¡±
At this moment, Chen Shaofeng was silent, seemingly lost in thought, unable to rte on the same level.
¡°A pleasant meet-up and an amicable departure? Do you think you¡¯re in a position to state that?¡±
Regaining hisposure, Chen Shaofeng let out a mocking sneer, his eyes turning icy cold.
Concurrently, the vital energy inside him started to flow continuously. An overwhelming force radiated from him, making it hard to breathe.
Chen Liuyuan quickly restrained Chen Shaofeng, helping him regain some semnce of calm.
Simultaneously, with a detached look, Chen Liuyuan directed his gaze at Wang Jianming, warning, ¡°Wang Jianming, you owe me an exnation. Don¡¯t assume I¡¯ll let this slide so easily.¡±
A powerful presence, characteristic of the Ninth Level of Spiritual Martial Stage, surged from him.
Most of the attendees were mere novices in the Spiritual Martial Stage, with a few not even attaining the Spirit Martial Realm. How could they be a match for Chen Liuyuan?
This overpowering demeanor immediately unsettled everyone present. For Wang Jianming, who was the primary target, the effect was even more pronounced.
¡°Chen Liuyuan! Chen Shaofeng! It¡¯s wise to know your ce. As they say, the informed are the true elite. It¡¯s in our best interest to settle this. Otherwise, even if you¡¯re Chi Yunhou, your fate will be sealed,¡± Wang Jianming asserted, struggling against the overwhelming pressure.
¡°Oh? Does this imply that your Wang Family possesses the capability to extinguish this marquis?¡±
Chen Liuyuan promptly responded with a disdainfulugh, his presence radiating an even more formidable essence.
Being a Chi Yunhou, he embodied the Ninth Level of the Spiritual Martial Stage within him. Whereas Wang Jianming had only attained the initial level of the Spirit realm; defending against him was impossible, not to mention harboring desires to vanquish him.
¡°Indeed, your power ismendable, but your progeny is the epitome of worthlessness. How dare such a worthless being fancy my daughter? How does he even muster the audacity?¡± sneered Wang Jianming contemptuously.
Concurrently, he dered, ¡°Know the reality! My daughter is now the chosenpanion of King Mua Nan¡¯s son, Lee Junjie. How audacious must you, Chen Liuyuan, be to contest the son of King Mua Nan for her?¡±
Upon hearing Wang Jianming¡¯s promation, the expressions of the bystanders instantly transformed, with Chen Liuyuan¡¯s visage twisting into extreme displeasure.
Was he oblivious to the entity known as King Mua Nan?
He was one of the unique monarchs bearing a distinct surname in the Great Tang Country¡ªa being elevated above the masses yet second to one.
Moreover, King Mua Nan was amongst the sparse entities in the Great Tang Country skilled in the Profound realm.
How could a Chi Yunhou like Chen Liuyuan ever measure up to such an entity?
¡°Good! Very good! Very good!¡±
Chen Liuyuan scoffed, hisughter tinged with ire: ¡°Wang Jianming! Do you presume that parading King Mua Nan would deter me from confronting you? Should this marquis desire your demise, none could intercede.¡±
As he uttered those words, Chen Liuyuan advanced toward Wang Jianming, his visage marred by wrath. His countenance alone conveyed the tempestuous emotions roiling within him.
¡°Is there truly no savior for him?¡± ¡°Are you certain of this?¡±
At that juncture, an unknown voice echoed, and an unfamiliar figure materialized within the residence.
The stranger bore a visage as refined as jade, tall and robust in stature, his ebony tresses tied neatly in a bun, crowned with jade. His regal attire bespoke his elevated status and lineage.
With his entrance, a smile graced Wang Jianming¡¯s lips, while Wang Yan, adjacent to him, unabashedly sought refuge in his arms, a veneer of joy on her face. Yet, anyone observing her could discern the insincerity in her bliss.
¡°Junjie!¡± ¡°What brings you here?¡± Eximed a delighted Wang Yan.
¡°Were I absent, I fear you¡¯d fall prey to the whims of this Chi Yunhou.¡±
Lee Junjie responded with a warm smile, appreciating Wang Yan¡¯s radiance.
At this, a profound alteration overcame Chen Liuyuan¡¯s expression. Just as he was about to erupt, Chen Shaofeng, with a visage of ice, dered: ¡°It appears you all orchestrated your machinations long before today!¡±
Wang Yan held her peace, her gaze avoiding Chen Shaofeng. Instead, it was Lee Junjie who, sping her petite hands, addressed Chen Shaofeng with a smile: ¡°Indubitably! Your folly is your sole culprit.¡±
Chen Shaofeng refrained from countering. He acquiesced, stating, ¡°Indeed! My folly is irrefutable, irredeemable in its extent, andden with naivety!¡±
¡°But¡¡±
Chen Shaofeng retorted with a cold chuckle, ¡°All you¡¯ve managed to im are the scraps I discarded; is that really a cause for celebration?¡±
Upon hearing his remark, the expressions of Wang Jianming and his daughter shifted immediately, their gazes filled with ire fixated on Chen Shaofeng. Even Lee Junjie, who was previously engaged inughter and conversation, found his demeanor souring, the joy previously evident on his visage evaporating instantly.
His gaze sharpened, his tone aloof, ¡°One should be cautious with their words. Some individuals are not to be trifled with lightly.¡±
¡°Nheless, as the words have been uttered, ountability is essential. I¡¯ll afford you three moves, only retaliating after. I will ensure fairness; your fate post those moves, however, hinges on fortune.¡±
Lee Junjie maintained a rtively steady countenance, but the furrowing of his brows betrayed his simmering rage.
It was understandable; no one would tolerate being dubbed a scavenger. Especially Lee Junjie, the progeny of King Mua Nan, for whom reputation and external perceptions were paramount.
Unsurprisingly, the most dismayed was Wang Yan. She had never anticipated such derogatory remarks from Chen Shaofeng. It contradicted her understanding of him, inducing skepticism and mounting frustration.
Her primary concern, however, revolved around Lee Junjie potentially crediting such statements.
Fortunately, subsequent assertions from Lee Junjie restored her equanimity.
Subsequently, her demeanor morphed into one of cold detachment towards Chen Shaofeng, a semnce of scorn underlying her gaze.
She was well aware of Chen Shaofeng¡¯s limitations, his capabilities not having breached the Nascent Realm; how could he possibly endure an assault from Lee Junjie?
Lee Junjie, possessing the prowess of a third-level Origin realm expert at merely twenty, wielded formidablebat capabilities and was considered among the elite youth of the Great Tang Academy.
This realization filled her with ndestine tion, recognizing the dissolution of the matrimonial pact with Chen Shaofeng as her gateway to bing Lee Junjie¡¯s partner¡ªa long-cherished aspiration.
¡°You¡¯d grant me three moves?¡±
Chen Shaofeng responded with derision, ¡°Your realm may surpass mine, but don¡¯t presume I¡¯m easily belittled. Endeavor to annihte me, and you¡¯ll incur equivalent repercussions.¡±
¡°Really? I¡¯m intrigued to witness the repercussions you conceive I¡¯ll endure.¡±
Lee Junjie, devoid of expression, persisted in narrowing the distance, his stride steady and his remarks continuous.
Each step manifested amanding aura, a burgeoning pressure aimed at Chen Shaofeng, encapsting him in a perceived thousand-kilogram force, impacting his respiration.
Such immense power!
This sensation was not exclusive to Chen Shaofeng; all attendees, Chen Liuyuan included, were equally staggered by the potent aura emitted by Lee Junjie.

Chapter 6
C6 ¨C Breakthrough the Innate Realm
¡°Elemental Martial Stage! Only Elemental Martial Stage have such power.¡±
Upon reaching the Ninth Level of the Spiritual Martial Stage, Chen Liuyuan immediately recognized the aura emanating from Lee Junjie¡¯s body as that of the Elemental Martial Stage, a realm higher than his own.
It was mind-boggling to think that a twenty-year-old possessed the expertise of an Elemental Martial Stage practitioner.
Chen Liuyuan never fathomed that he would provoke such a prodigious talent. He understood that his actions today could never be forgiven.
¡°Above all else, I must ensure Feng Er¡¯s safety.¡±
In that moment, Chen Liuyuan resolved himself to protect Chen Shaofeng at any cost, even if it meant sacrificing his own life to secure Chen Shaofeng¡¯s escape.
Moreover, he held the belief that, being a Chi Yunhou of the Great Tang Country, even the son of King Mua Nan would not dare to take his life. However, he was aware that this was a personal assumption.
With each step Lee Junjie took toward Chen Shaofeng, the oppressive force intensified, and Chen Liuyuan strained with all his might to resist it. However, the disparity in their realms proved insurmountable.
Although Lee Junjie had granted him three opportunities to strike, they would be meaningless if Chen Shaofeng couldn¡¯t retaliate. Yet, even if he could, the overwhelming pressure severely limited his abilities.
Every step taken by Chen Shaofeng became a grueling ordeal. His extremities were suffused with crimson, his veins bulged, and his muscles trembled under the relentless pressure, sometimes contracting, sometimes convulsing.
Upon his first step, blood vessels throughout his body threatened to rupture. Only by continuously channeling his Zhen Qi did he prevent himself from being crushed by the unrelenting force.
Despite Lee Junjie¡¯s righteous facade, the escting pressure suggested he had already resolved to kill Chen Shaofeng, as evidenced by its extreme intensity.
Boom!
Despite bearing an immense amount of pressure, Chen Shaofeng recognized that cultivating under such conditions was the most effective path. Consequently, following his endurance of this pressure, he achieved a breakthrough in his initial realm. The moment he ascended to the True Great Perfection¡¯s great circle, he seamlessly transitioned to the first level.
His rate of progress mirrored that of seven years ago.
Chen Shaofeng¡¯s advancement couldn¡¯t escape the notice of those present, including Lee Junjie before him, who possessed keen perception.
¡°Oh? He managed to break through! And he even attained the Innate Stage. It seems you¡¯re not just ordinary trash!¡± Lee Junjie remarked nonchntly.
In Lee Junjie¡¯s perspective, Chen Shaofeng, even at the Human Level¡¯s 9th stage, posed no threat whatsoever.
Others in the vicinity held different expressions, particrly the father and daughter from the Wang Family, who wore looks of astonishment.
At present, Chen Shaofeng had not only broken through to the Nascent Realm but also transcended the Innate Stage, instantly attaining the first level of the Human Realm. The speed of his progress was truly remarkable.
To them, this smack on the face was not an ordinary one.
Could it be that he was faking it in the past?
It¡¯s impossible to pretend to look so good, isn¡¯t it?
The Wang Family father and daughter found themselves in a state of bewilderment, yet there was no immediate need for them to ponder the situation. Even though Chen Shaofeng had already achieved a breakthrough, he remained insignificantly inferior in the presence of Lee Junjie.
With this realization, a sense of equilibrium gradually settled upon the two of them.
Lee Junjie, his voice dripping with disdain, remarked, ¡°Even if he has ascended to the Innate Stage, he still lingers at the initial tier of the Mortal realm. When measured against me, he amounts to nothing more than refuse.¡±
Upon hearing Lee Junjie¡¯s words, the Wang Family father and daughter could finally release their pent-up tension.
Chen Shaofeng furrowed his brow slightly, acutely aware that despite his recent breakthrough, he possessed no discernible advantage over Lee Junjie. In fact, the situation was fraught with danger for him.
¡°Very well! Commence your attack or forever lose the opportunity. Otherwise, you won¡¯t get another chance,¡± Lee Junjie stated impassively.
Chen Shaofengprehended that he needed to act promptly; otherwise, the sole remaining path for them would be theplete annihtion of their n. He understood that among Chi Yunhou¡¯s household, Chen Liuyuan held the highest position in terms of strength, but Chen Liuyuan had yet to attain the Elemental Martial Stage.
Nevertheless, the current circumstances demanded Chen Liuyuan¡¯s intervention; failure to act would result in Chen Shaofeng¡¯s demise. No matter the cost, he couldn¡¯t allow harm to befall his son.
Regardless of Lee Junjie¡¯s formidable prowess, there still remained a sliver of hope. However, if Chen Shaofeng refrained fromunching an assault, that sliver of hope would vanish entirely.
Chen Liuyuan took a big step forward: ¡°Let me experience your power.¡±
¡°What¡¯s this? The little one can¡¯t handle it, but the other little one is making a move? Well, that¡¯s interesting. I¡¯d like to see just how much stronger you¡¯ve actually be.¡±
Lee Junjie paid no attention to Chen Liuyuan¡¯s actions. To him, whether it was Chen Shaofeng or Chen Liuyuan, neither posed a challenge. He believed he could determine their fates with just one move.
Consequently, he remained motionless, not even raising a hand or ncing at Chen Liuyuan. This infuriated Chen Liuyuan, prompting him to impulsivelyunch a punch.
When his fist met the air, there was a faint sonic boom, although it wasn¡¯t particrly pronounced. Clearly, he had held back on this punch.
However, observing Lee Junjie¡¯s nonchnt demeanor, he extended his right hand without even looking and delivered a casual punch.
He had anticipated that his opponent would underestimate him and disregard his attack. Consequently, even though he hadn¡¯t exerted his full strength, the punch carried significant offensive power that would be difficult for typical Ninth Level Spiritual Martial Stage experts to defend against.
Yet, he had overlooked one crucial detail: the Lee Junjie before him was not a practitioner of the Spiritual Martial Stage, but rather an Elemental Martial Stage practitioner.
This seemingly light punch was actually extremely powerful.
Bang!
Two clenched fists collided, and a shockwave rippled outward in all directions.
The humming noise resembled the buzz of a bee, but upon closer listening, it revealed an entirely different quality.
In this moment, Chen Liuyuan unmistakably sensed a potent surge of energy emanating from his right fist. Within that energyy a concealed force that swiftly coursed through his arm, inducing a sharp ache in his muscles.
Never had he anticipated Lee Junjie¡¯s strength to be this formidable; even a seemingly light punch packed such tremendous power. He couldn¡¯t help but wonder about the devastating force behind a full-fledged strike.
He dared not dwell on that thought any longer.
Chen Shaofeng, standing nearby, could clearly discern the fleeting expression of pain on his father¡¯s face. It was evident that his Ninth Level of Spiritual Martial Stage father had also been outmatched in this exchange.
Realizing that Chen Liuyuan would continue to bear the brunt of the confrontation, he promptly stepped forward, squarely facing Lee Junjie.
Chapter 7
C7 ¨C Promise After One Year
¡°Lee Junjie, your edge over me is simply due to your longer cultivation and age. If our ages were the same, defeating you would be a walk in the park.¡± Chen Shaofeng wore a smirk as he addressed Lee Junjie.
Geniuses harbored a unique sense of pride, one that remained impervious to criticism or denial. This pride was an integral part of their identity as geniuses.
Consequently, when Chen Shaofeng issued this provocative statement, he did so fully aware of the intended provocation. He quipped, ¡°Really now? So, you¡¯re saying that if you were my age, you could easily defeat me? Well then, let¡¯s add a few years to your count, I¡¯m genuinely curious to witness this defeat.¡±
Lee Junjie¡¯s words resonated with unwavering confidence in his own genius status. Indeed, maintaining even a modicum of self-assurance was a prerequisite for bearing the title of a genius.
Wang Jianming and Wang Yan, standing nearby, began to harbor concerns. They possessed firsthand knowledge of Chen Shaofeng¡¯s innate talent from earlier times, and allowing him a few more years to develop could lead to immeasurable growth, a prospect that left them uneasy.
¡°How many years?¡±
Chen Shaofeng shook his head, then raised a finger, saying, ¡°Give me just one year, and I¡¯ll be able to best you.¡±
¡°You think you can defeat me in a year? You¡¯re still dreaming, aren¡¯t you?¡± Lee Junjie burst into heartyughter.
Laughter filled the room, with Wang Jianming and Wang Yan, who were well aware of Lee Junjie¡¯s prowess, joining in enthusiastically.
¡°Attempting to outmatch an elite warrior in a mere year? Your understanding of cultivation is truly baffling. You dare utter such unrealistic ims,¡± Wang Yan remarked with a touch of mockery.
Chen Shaofeng remained unperturbed, his expression unchanged as he nced at Lee Junjie. ¡°If you¡¯re not up for it, that¡¯s fine. But at the very least, don¡¯t spout so much nonsense here.¡±
¡°A year it is! I¡¯m eager to witness how you n to surpass me within that timeframe. I won¡¯t y dirty; if you can match me in a year, consider it my loss. I¡¯ll even apologize to you and help you win Wang Yan and her father¡¯s approval. What do you say?¡±
Lee Junjie¡¯s confidence was palpable, even adding extra unfavorable terms to his challenge. Perhaps, only he believed he could pull it off!
The Wang Family father and daughter were rmed by Lee Junjie¡¯s words. ¡°Junjie! How could you suggest such a thing?¡±
Lee Junjie looked somewhat displeased at the Wang Family duo and questioned, ¡°Do you honestly believe I¡¯ll lose?¡±
Seeing the two of them speechless, Lee Junjie concluded, ¡°Then it¡¯s settled! Chen Shaofeng, I¡¯ll spare your life for now. In a year, I¡¯ll im it from you.¡±
¡°I won¡¯t give you the chance.¡± Chen Shaofeng said with a serious face.
Confidence is a valuable attribute, but it necessitates a certain level of inner strength. Rest assured, I won¡¯t pose any threats to you for the next year.
At this juncture, Lee Junjie wore a cryptic smile and spoke with an icy tone, ¡°Don¡¯t assume that just because you¡¯ve crossed me, you¡¯ll have an easy passage. While I may spare your life, I can¡¯t guarantee the same for others who may not survive even a year.¡±
Hearing Lee Junjie¡¯s words, the father and daughter exchanged smiles. Initially, they had anticipated an easier oue but were taken aback by the unfolding situation.
Without dy, Lee Junjie turned and departed, leaving a sense of unease among those present rather than relief; most were filled with worry.
¡°Master Hou!¡± I¡¯ve just remembered that I have some pressing matters to attend to at my residence. I¡¯ll be taking my leave now.¡±
At this moment, Tian Linxi, one of the Tian Family Patriarchs among the three prominent ns, rose alongside the Wang Family and left promptly, without waiting for Chen Liuyuan to respond.
Tian Linxi had clearly assessed that Chen Liuyuan and his son were in for a grim fate if they continued to provoke the son of King Mua Nan, prompting him to swiftly distance himself from the situation.
¡°Master Hou!¡± I almost forgot that today is the day my child returns from his journey outside. I should take my leave now.¡± Sun Qian, the remaining head of the Sun family, stood up and bid his farewells at this juncture.
After the appearance of the first person, it seemed reasonable for a second to follow suit. Subsequently, a significant number of individuals departed from Chi Yunhou¡¯s residence.
Each person had their own reasons, though Chen Liuyuan made no effort to impede their departure, for he had no grounds to do so.
These individuals had to prioritize their own families. Chi Yunhou¡¯s mansion had undoubtedly incurred the wrath of King Mua Nan¡¯s son. Staying there would only bring them harm, both personally and to their kin.
However, even though theyprehended this, they could not have anticipated the once vibrant Chi Yunhou¡¯s mansion to turn eerily cold. Apart from a handful of servants, there was hardly anyone left.
¡°These ingrates!¡± I used to rush here when I needed something from the Marquis, and now, when the Marquis¡¯s Mansion is in peril, they¡¯re leaving one by one,¡± Butler Lao Chen fumed.
¡°Lao Chen, let it be. Today, the Marquis¡¯s Mansion has indeed provoked someone it shouldn¡¯t have. I believe it¡¯s best for you to vacate the premises. Judging by what Lee Junjie said earlier, I fear a great cmity may befall us soon,¡± Chen Liuyuan said with a sense of resignation.
¡°I belong to the Marquis¡¯s Mansion, and in life or death, I am bound to it,¡± Lao Chen dered resolutely.
¡°We won¡¯t abandon our post either,¡± echoed the other servants of the Marquis¡¯s Mansion.
The expressions on these loyal servants, willing to stand by even in the face of adversity, spoke volumes about the kindness Chen Liuyuan had shown them day in and day out. Otherwise, they would not have chosen to remain.
¡°You all¡¡±
Before Chen Liuyuan could finish speaking, his expression changed, and he immediately adopted a cautious demeanor.
Chen Shaofeng¡¯s countenance turned serious as he fixed his gaze on the sudden appearance of a figure before him.
Before him stood a middle-aged man d in ck, his face devoid of emotion, almost resembling a lifeless visage. In his left hand, he held a sword, and although the de remained sheathed, an intense aura of swordmanship emanated from his being.
The sword¡¯s power was overwhelmingly potent, pressing down on Chen Shaofeng, leaving him breathless. Nearby, Chen Liuyuan found himself simrly ensnared by the sword¡¯s might, rendering it profoundly formidable.
¡°Who are you?¡± Chen Shaofeng inquired with a furrowed brow.
The middle-aged man cast an indifferent nce at Chen Shaofeng and replied, ¡°Are you the one who rashly dered the intention to defeat His Highness within a year?¡±
Chen Shaofeng, fully aware that he was referring to Lee Junjie, felt a surge of caution wash over him.
Nevertheless, he was aware that retreating wasn¡¯t an option. He maintained hisposure and responded confidently, saying, ¡°It¡¯s me! What can I do for you?¡±
¡°What¡¯s your decision? While the crown prince assured your safety, I never promised to let you off the hook. I¡¯ll grant you the opportunity to make a move against me, or you might not get another chance,¡± the middle-aged man dressed in ck stated, his face devoid of emotion.
¡°If you intend to confront my son, you must first gain my fist¡¯s approval.¡±
With these words, Chen Liuyuan clenched his fist and charged toward the middle-aged man in ck. His fists suddenly ignited with scorching scarlet mes, causing the air around them to warp due to the intense heat.
¡°Back off!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t push me to resort to violence; you¡¯re not my target. Don¡¯t provoke unnecessary trouble.¡±
The middle-aged man in ck exuded a dominating presence, projecting an aura that felt imprable. Despite Chen Liuyuan¡¯s Ninth Level of Spiritual Martial Stage prowess, he appeared insignificant before the middle-aged man.
Witnessing this, Chen Shaofeng¡¯s anger red, and he channeled his energy vigorously, unleashing a formidable aura that radiated from his body.
Chapter 8
C8 ¨C Crimson me Tyrant Killing Technique
Although he had recently achieved the Innate Stage, the aura he exuded was far from insignificant. It even surpassed that of warriors at the first level of the human realm. However, when faced with the ck-clothed middle-aged man, his aura seemed utterly inconsequential.
¡°Oh? First level of the mortal realm! While his aura is impressive, challenging the Crown Prince at such a high level is impossible.¡±
¡°I¡¯ll let you know how big the gap is between you and the Crown Prince!¡±
Boom!
Though this aura wasn¡¯t as overwhelming as it had been in front of Chen Liuyuan, it was still substantial. Chen Shaofeng felt as if he were pinned beneath a colossal mountain, rendering him incapable of resistance. His body remained pressed down, leaving no room for defiance.
Clearly, the ck-clothed middle-aged man¡¯s aura didn¡¯t represent his utmost power. Could this be what he meant by his earlier words?
Indeed, after releasing this aura, he uttered, ¡°This is the genuine might of the Crown Prince. You can¡¯t even withstand his aura, let alone face him inbat.¡±
¡°Forget about a year, even ten years wouldn¡¯t make you a match for the Crown Prince. Killing you would only sully my hands.¡±
As he spoke, the ck-d middle-aged man withdrew his aura, turned, and departed from the Marquis¡¯s Mansion¡¯s realm.
It was evident that he hadn¡¯te to destroy the Marquis¡¯s Mansion. Ultimately, the Chi Yunhou¡¯s residence had been granted to him by the king, and no matter how formidable King Mua Nan might be, they couldn¡¯t oppose the royal family.
Acting as Chi Yunhou, they had to exercise caution in their actions, or else the Marquis¡¯s Mansion might have been bathed in blood long ago.
Regardless, ending up in this situation might not necessarily be misfortune for Chen Shaofeng.
Nevertheless, today¡¯s events had a profound impact on Chen Shaofeng. At the tender age of seventeen, the betrayal of his lover weighed heavily on his mind, as did the colossal burden of Lee Junjie¡¯s treachery. It caused him, a young duke by birth, to mature suddenly.
¡°Father! I¡¯ve made up my mind to leave Nanshan County early tomorrow morning and embark on a journey of training,¡± Chen Shaofeng dered with unwavering resolve.
¡°Feng Er!¡± I support your decision, but no matter what, your life must be safeguarded, understood?¡±
Chen Liuyuan was acutely aware of the perils of training journeys and understood the difficulties of going alone. Though deeply concerned, he couldn¡¯t deter Chen Shaofeng because hecked the strength to protect his son.
Reflecting on his past vigor and self-assurance andparing it to his current helplessness, where he couldn¡¯t even safeguard his own son, he made a firm decision.
¡°I understand, father! I n to participate in the Great Tang Academy entrance exam in half a month,¡± Chen Shaofeng revealed.
¡°The Great Tang Academy entrance exam? Do you intend to cultivate at the Great Tang Academy?¡± Chen Liuyuan inquired, his surprise evident.
It was worth noting that the Great Tang Academy was essentially Lee Junjie¡¯s domain. Chen Shaofeng had only recently forged a one-year pact with him, and now he was voluntarily walking into what seemed like a trap. Wasn¡¯t this akin to courting disaster?
This was also why Chen Liuyuan was so shocked.
Chen Shaofeng nodded in agreement. ¡°You¡¯re right, Father. To face challenges head-on, I must enter the fray. Besides, with my current capabilities, even if I spend a year honing my skills outside, I still won¡¯t match Lee Junjie. Joining a faction is the key to essing better cultivation resources.¡±
¡°Indeed, whether it¡¯s training outside or within the esteemed Great Tang Academy, one needs unwavering strength. Throughout the entire Great Tang Country, and even in the vast Dong Lai Domain, martial prowess reigns supreme. Strength is the paramount factor. Before you embark on your journey, I, your father, wish to impart an offensive martial technique to you,¡± Chen Liuyuan dered.
¡°What martial technique is it?¡± Chen Shaofeng inquired.
¡°The Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts! This martial technique is at the seventh level of the Yellow Level and is currently the most formidable one I can bestow upon you,¡± Chen Liuyuan exined.
As he spoke, a powerful aura emanated from Chen Liuyuan, and a surge of intense energy flowed out of his body. The scarlet energy discharged from him coalesced into a fiery red Energy Ball right before him.
The Energy Ball formed almost instantaneously, a testament to Chen Liuyuan¡¯s immense strength.
The instant the Energy Ball took shape, the surrounding air emitted a hissing sound. Upon closer inspection, one could discern that the air had established intricate connections with the energy sphere.
The surrounding space began to suffocate as well.
¡°Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts!¡±
The Energy Ball¡¯s form swelled instantaneously, radiating a formidable and domineering energy that surged forth directly toward arge tree held in the arms of several people.
Boom!
Upon the Energy Ball¡¯s assault on the massive tree, a series of thunderous reverberations filled the air.
The tree¡¯s trunk burst apart, shrouding the area in a haze of smoke that veiled the entire tree.
Once the smoke dissipated, not a single trace remained of the once-standing tree. Were it not for the substantial pit, observers might have doubted the tree¡¯s existence in the first ce.
So powerful!
Chen Shaofeng stood in utter astonishment, never anticipating that the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts would wield such overwhelming might. He was aware that his father had constrained the power to its minimal level, yet even with this limited potency, it obliterated therge tree instantaneously.
¡°This is merely a fraction of the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts¡¯ potential. With sessful cultivation, you can even confront adversaries above your level. Naturally, your proficiency with the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts will depend on yourprehension and mastery of it,¡± Chen Liuyuan borated.
Continuing, Chen Liuyuan exined, ¡°Moreover, the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts isn¡¯t confined to a singr manifestation. It can take the form of a sword technique, a de art, a palm technique, or even a Fist Art. Each application bestows distinct attributes, all of which you¡¯ll explore in due course.¡±
Chen Liuyuan tapped a finger to Chen Shaofeng¡¯s forehead, prompting a sensation of information flooding his mind, with the most prominent five words being ¡°Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts.¡±
¡°This is?¡±
This marked Chen Shaofeng¡¯s first encounter with such a method of transmitting a martial skill, leaving him bewildered.
¡°Once a martial practitioner attains the Spiritual Martial Stage, they can cultivate their spirit sense. What your father did just now was employ spirit consciousness to impart knowledge directly into your mind,¡± Chen Liuyuan rified.
¡°So that¡¯s how it is!¡±
Chen Shaofeng nodded in acknowledgment, and Chen Liuyuan concluded, ¡°Very well! I rmend that you start by cultivating the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts before continuing your journey. We are not far from the Imperial City, and we should reach there in about five or six days.¡±
Chen Shaofeng remained silent and ascended the mountain behind the Marquis¡¯s Mansion, his usual training spot.
Chen Liuyuan didn¡¯t impede him. He understood that cultivating the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts sessfully would likely take at least ten days.
Regardless of how potent Chen Shaofeng¡¯s Inherent Skill was, he still required several days.
He wanted to see his son once more before their parting.
In truth, the moment Chen Shaofengid eyes on the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, he realized that it was an incredibly challenging martial technique to master. Being a martial skill of the seventh level in the Yellow Level, and him being only at the first level of the Mortal Realm, it was already a significantly advanced martial skill for him.
Therefore, sess would necessitate not only time but also dedication.
However, what concerned Chen Shaofeng most at this juncture was not the time but whether he couldprehend the intricacies of the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts.
¡°To cultivate the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, you just need to enter the Mountain and Sea Space. One night there equates to at least four or five days here.¡±
Chen Shaofeng smiled enigmatically, and in an instant, his form vanished from the mountain¡¯s rear.
Chapter 9
C9 ¨C Target Royal City
The Mountain and Sea Space contained ten times the outside world¡¯s time, and one night was equivalent to six hours. That would mean five days, and with these five days, he believed that he would definitely be able to sessfully cultivate this Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts.
When Chen Shaofeng entered the Mountain and Sea Space, the of the Mountain and Sea Map appeared in front of him.
¡°That¡¯s right! To be able to break through to the Innate Stage in such a short amount of time, you are not aplete piece of trash after all!¡± Artifact Spirit said with a smile.
¡°The reason why I became trash was all because of you. Or else, how would I still be in the realm of the 1st level of the Human realm?¡±
When Chen Shaofeng thought about how he had eaten all of the true energy that he had cultivated over seven years, he became so angry that he clenched his teeth. If it wasn¡¯t for the fact that the Mountain and Sea Map was a treasure that could help him cultivate, he would have burnt it down.
Thankfully, he had spent seven years to obtain such a treasure, so it wasn¡¯t a loss at all.
¡°Alright! If others want this treasure, they will not be able to get it. But now, I have only absorbed your true strength for seven years, and you are already unhappy about that? If it were anyone else, I would have long been overjoyed.¡± Xiao Hai said with a helpless expression.
¡°Alright! Since you saw through it, I won¡¯t continue acting.¡±
Following that, Chen Shaofeng burst outughing.
Then, he said: ¡°I am here to cultivate the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts for the next few days.¡±
¡°Cultivate!¡± Only when you be stronger will you be able to obtain more resources to help me recover. When that timees, the speed up of your Mountain and Sea Space will not be tenfold, and it won¡¯t be impossible for it to be twenty or thirty times stronger. ¡°Young man.¡±
After saying that, the Xiao Hai left, leaving Chen Shaofeng alone.
Chen Shaofeng did not bother with the Xiao Hai. The first thing he needed to do was to cultivate the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts sessfully, so no matter how hard others thought, it would be useless.
In order to cultivate the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, one must first thoroughly control the true power within the body, so he had to start training in how to control the true power within the body.
He had just trained his strength for a short time, so he had to train in this.
If it was someone who had already entered the realm of true qi, he could save this step.
Just like this, Chen Shaofeng spent one day to control the power, and in the remaining four days he would have to wholeheartedly focus on training the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts.
This Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts was indeed extraordinary, and every time it was released, it would cause him to be shocked. In the end, when he cultivated the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts to the Small Sess Realm, its power would be even more astonishing, and with his current realm, killing a practitioner of the Second Level of Mortal Martial Stage would be a piece of cake.
Of course, when he was cultivating the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, his cultivation did not drop, his innate talent was strong to begin with, and whenbined with the fact that he was suppressed at the great circle of perfection of the Qi Refining stage for so long.
As a result, he broke through to the Innate Stage so quickly when he started to truly break through to the Nascent Soul Stage.
And now, he broke through from the first level of the Mortal realm to the Second Level of Mortal Martial Stage. His speed was simply unimaginable.
With his current strength, without using Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, he would be invincible against warriors at the third level of the Mortal realm.
And after using the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, he would only be able to instantly fight someone at the 3rd level of the Mortal Realm, and only someone at the 4th level would be able to fight him.
As long as he did not meet any warriors at the 5th level of the Human realm or above, he could deal with them. With this bit of strength, Chen Shaofeng was confident that he could train himself on the way to the Imperial City.
¡°I¡¯ll go out first!¡± Today, I will set off for the experiential learning!¡± Chen Shaofeng said.
¡°Good luck!¡± Xiao Hai said.
It was only then that Chen Shaofeng left the Mountain and Sea Space. The Xiao Hai watched Chen Shaofeng leave with a bit of disbelief in his heart, as he never thought that Chen Shaofeng would be able to cultivate this Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts to Minor Aplishment in such a short period of time.
If his eyes were not bad, this Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts was a little stronger than he had imagined. Looking at the destroyed gigantic rocks in the space, he was a little looking forward to Chen Shaofeng¡¯s experience.
Following which, the Xiao Hai waved her hand casually, and those boulders that were initially destroyed by Chen Shaofeng immediately reverted back to their original state.
Chen Shaofeng naturally did not know of any of these things.
After he left the Mountain and Sea Space, he immediately returned to the interior of the Marquis¡¯s Mansion.
After finding Chen Liuyuan who was in the Pce, he expressed his wish to leave the Marquis¡¯s Mansion and told him that he had sessfully cultivated the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts.
¡°What? You say that you have sessfully cultivated the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts? Just one night?¡± Chen Liuyuan asked with a face full of shock.
No wonder he was shocked, because no matter how much of a genius one was, it was impossible for one to cultivate the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts in one night, even the expert who created the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts could not, but Chen Shaofeng seeded!
¡°Quick! Let me see the power of the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts that you have cultivated.¡± Chen Liuyuan said excitedly.
Chen Shaofeng smiled and nodded: ¡°Alright!¡±
After that, he silently circted the true energy within his body. When his true energy flowed along the various meridians and left the surface of his body, it emitted a faint fiery red light.
Moreover, with the output of his true energy, the fiery red light also became more and more intense, as if it was going to evolve into a deep red color.
At the same time, a faint aura emanated from his body, giving him an extraordinary feeling.
At this time, Chen Shaofeng saw that the time was ripe, his eyes suddenly opened, and shouted: ¡°Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts!¡±
Just at that moment, his right fist started to shine brightly. Bright fiery red light enveloped his entire body, and after that, an extremely tyrannical and murderous aura started to surge out from his fist.
Boom!
Powerful fists immediately struck out, and the sound of breaking air sounded out, leaving behind shallow marks in the air.
After that, everyone present was shocked to see that a huge boulder that was originally standing in the courtyard of the Marquis¡¯s Mansion was directly smashed by Chen Shaofeng¡¯s fist. One must know that this boulder was no ordinary stone, it was the most durable type of diamond, and even ordinary Mortal Realm experts would not be able to destroy it.
¡°This¡¡±
Chen Liuyuan looked at Chen Shaofeng who was in front of him in disbelief, and was unable to recover from his shock for a long time.
He never thought his son would not only have sessfully cultivated the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, but also have mastered such a great power. He believed that when it matures, its power would double, and at the thought of this, he would be extremely happy.
¡°Good, good, good!¡±
Only then did Chen Liuyuan speak happily: ¡°If that¡¯s the case, then even if you leave the Nanshan County now, I can rest easy.¡±
¡°Father! Rest assured! I will definitely work hard to cultivate and try my best to defeat Lee Junjie one yearter.¡± Chen Shaofeng said with a resolute expression.
¡°Good! Since you¡¯ve made your decision, then go and do it. I, your father, will always support you.¡± Chen Liuyuan said with a smile.
Seeing that Chen Shaofeng had such strength, he felt at ease.
Chen Shaofeng nodded, then bowed and left the Marquis¡¯s Mansion. His goal was naturally the Imperial City.
Chen Shaofeng¡¯s departure did not cause much of a stir in the Nanshan County. It was as if a small stone had been thrown into a vast ocean without any ripples at all.
Chapter 10
C10 ¨C Preliminary Killing Demon Beast
Departing from the Marquis¡¯s Mansion, Chen Shaofeng exited Nanshan County through its northern gate, as the Imperial Cityy to the north of the county.
Venturing beyond Nanshan County for the first time, Chen Shaofeng¡¯s curiosity led him to explore the unfamiliar surroundings eagerly. As he traversed the forest, his gaze darted from side to side until, not long after, he encountered a Demonic Beast.
Demonic Beasts were categorized into nine stages, each stage denoting varying degrees of strength. The first stage represented the lowest level of strength, while the ninth stage signified the highest.
Given Chen Shaofeng¡¯s current prowess, dispatching a typical first stage Demonic Beast posed no challenge; however, contending with a second stage one proved considerably more daunting.
Indeed, a second stage Demonic Beast possessed the ability to overpower a practitioner of the Spiritual Martial Stage. With Chen Shaofeng¡¯s current capabilities, triumphing against such a foe seemed imusible.
Typically, within ordinary forests like this one, Demonic Beasts of the highest first stage levelcked intelligence and remained below the first stage. These Demonic Beasts generally exhibited moderate strength, akin to warriors of the Refinement Realm.
These Demon Cores served as the primary energy source for Demonic Beasts and held immense value for cultivation purposes. They were exceedingly rare; even encountering one among a dozen or so Rank 1 Demonic Beasts was considered fortunate.
The Two-Winged Fire Wolf currently confronting Chen Shaofeng belonged to the first stage of Demonic Beasts.
Upon locking eyes with Chen Shaofeng, the Two-Winged Fire Wolf hesitated to make the first move, mirroring Chen Shaofeng¡¯s caution.
Suddenly, the Two-Winged Fire Wolf lunged forward, its wings propelling it while a fiery aura emanated from its maw. Descending from above, it unleashed a torrent of mes, engulfing the area.
The mes seemed to set the very air aze, instantly elevating the surrounding temperature.
Chen Shaofeng found himself the target of the fiery assault.
Undaunted, Chen Shaofeng scoffed, ¡°Let¡¯s see whose mes reign supreme: yours or my me Fist.¡±
Simultaneously, he lunged forward, his Cloud Walk technique leaving distinct imprints on the ground. Clearly, his mastery of the Cloud Walk technique remained iplete, as evidenced by the conspicuous footprints left behind.
¡°Crimson me Fist!¡±
With a resounding roar, Chen Shaofeng initiated the cirction of energy within his body, generating a swirling vortex of energy along his arm.
Simultaneously, he executed the Crimson me Fist Technique, summoning fiery energy that surged from both his fists.
Propelling himself off the ground with both feet, he ascended into the air, delivering a forceful blow with his Crimson me Fist, both fists hurtling towards the Winged Fire Wolf¡¯s form.
Boom!
Upon enduring the onught of this rolling attack, the Two-Winged Fire Wolf was forcefully propelled backward. Despite its fiery aura, Chen Shaofeng¡¯s me Fist not only zed with intensity but also possessed formidable solidity. Hence, it came as no surprise that the Two-Winged Fire Wolf was sent hurtling by such a powerful punch.
The Two-Winged Fire Wolf collided with a nearby tree, shattering it in half with tremendous impact.
Roar!
The Two-Winged Fire Wolf beat its wings, soaring once more into the sky. A thunderous roar emanated from its maw, a testament to its fury.
Never had it imagined that a noble first-stage Demonic Beast like itself would be wounded by a mere human. Such indignity demanded the human¡¯s immediate demise.
In that moment, a formidable aura surged from the Winged Fire Wolf¡¯s form, potent enough to affect the figure of Chen Shaofeng standing before it.
With this aura¡¯s eruption, a luminous barrier promptly enveloped the beast, extending in all directions.
Though not a devastating assault, this attack still posed a significant threat. Chen Shaofeng found himself unable to evade, resigned to enduring its impact.
Thankfully, the attackcked sufficient force to cause significant harm to Chen Shaofeng.
As anticipated, upon contact with Chen Shaofeng, the light barrier inflicted only minimal difort, far less than expected.
Nheless, typically, assaults from Demonic Beasts were not so ineffectual.
Following this assault, Chen Shaofeng sensed the Two-Winged Fire Wolf¡¯s heightened aggression. It swooped down before him, extending its forelegs to strike.
¡°Do you think I¡¯m foolish enough to sumb to such an attack?¡±
He scoffed, intending to depart immediately. Yet, to his surprise, no matter his efforts, his feet seemed rooted to the ground, immobilized.
Perplexed, he struggled to move, puzzled by his unbound hands and feet.
¡°Could it be the result of that earlier light barrier?¡± Chen Shaofeng spected inwardly.
Only such an exnation could ount for his current predicament.
However, what precisely was that light barrier, and why did it impart this sensation of constraint?
Roar!
Following the impact that sent Chen Shaofeng sprawling, the Two-Winged Fire Wolf¡¯s fiery aura intensified, and it arched its head back, unleashing a streak of fire from its maw.
Witnessing the iing fireball and sensing its scorching heat, Chen Shaofeng immediately went on high alert.
Undoubtedly, a first-stage Demonic Beast deserved its reputation.
However, for someone currently at the Second Level of the Mortal Martial Stage like him, the strength of such a Demonic Beast held little significance. Ultimately, the creature before him was merely an early-stage First Level Demonic Beast, not yet at its peak.
¡°Since you seek your demise, I shall oblige.¡±
¡°Crimson me Fist!¡±
A fierce me aura enveloped Chen Shaofeng¡¯s body as he channeled energy into his fist, causing his temperature to skyrocket, akin to standing before a zing furnace.
In the midst of this, the fireballs hurled by the Two-Winged Fire Wolf streaked towards him at astonishing speed, detonating upon impact.
A colossal wave of mes surged into the sky, engulfing Chen Shaofeng instantaneously.
¡°These feeble mes dare to attempt my demise? How naive!¡±
With crimson mes aze, he charged towards the Two-Winged Fire Wolf, his fiery fist dominating everything and causing the creature to plummet from the heavens.
Seize the opportunity to end its life!
Chen Shaofeng¡¯s blows rained down upon the Winged Fire Wolf mercilessly, shattering its four limbs and coating its body in fresh blood. Terrifying screams pierced the air, causing nearby Demonic Beasts eyeing the fallen wolf to retreat hastily.
Gradually, the cries of the Two-Winged Fire Wolf dwindled until they faded entirely. Chen Shaofeng couldn¡¯t help but release a sigh.
He hadn¡¯t anticipated that dispatching an early-stage First Level Demonic Beast would demand such an expenditure of energy, leaving him feeling profoundly helpless.
Chapter 11
C11 ¨C Arrogant Youth
Upon the demise of the Two-Winged Fire Wolf, Chen Shaofeng initially intended to attend to its remains. Yet, upon disintegration, he made a startling discovery: a fiery-red, energy-rich nucleus had tumbled from the creature¡¯s carcass.
A Demon Core!
Spotting the fallen object, Chen Shaofeng¡¯s delight was instantaneous. What else could it be if not a Demon Core?
Never had he imagined he would chance upon a Demon Core with such casual dispatch.
Consider that Demon Cores could fetch a market value of up to a thousand gold taels, with premium variants unattainable by ordinary means. Typically, Genuine Spiritual Stones were required for procurement, rendering them invaluable.
Hence, the likelihood of Chen Shaofeng acquiring a Demon Core through a mere ying was exceedingly high.
This realization filled him with profound tion.
To avert any mishaps, he hastily secured the Demon Core.
Yet, despite his careful retrieval, an unforeseen incident urred when he attempted to grasp the Core.
Abruptly, two figures materialized before Chen Shaofeng, barring his path¡ªone before and one behind him.
¡°Hand over the Demon Core in your possession, and you may depart unscathed. Otherwise, do not me me for myck of leniency.¡±
Just as Chen Shaofeng secured the Demon Core, a youth materialized before him, appearing roughly the same age.
Adorned in resplendent attire, with delicate features and a winsome smile, his eyes betrayed a covetous gleam at the sight of the Demon Core.
Though a first-stage Demon Core was the lowest tier, its utility for warriors was undeniable. The beast¡¯s essence contained within could greatly hasten a martial artist¡¯s progress.
The young man did not appear destitute, leading Chen Shaofeng to specte that his fervent desire for the Demon Core stemmed from his recent breakthrough to the first stage of the Mortal realm, seeking to expedite his cultivation with its energy.
These Demon Cores held immense value, each equivalent to that of a First Ranked Warrior.
In a typical city, Mortal Realm warriors were esteemed as top authorities. Even in the presence of Nanshan County¡¯s, they remained formidable figures.
Typically, their n or faction provided cultivation resources, sparing them the need to seek such essentials externally.
Despite the rarity of Demon Cores, they weren¡¯t entirely scarce, albeit in slightly diminished quantities.
Consequently, there was no need to perilously hunt Demonic Beasts of a higher level to acquire them.
This scarcity of warriors capable of hunting Level One Demonic Beasts made Demon Cores even more coveted.
Understandably, the youth before him sought to seize the initial stage of Chen Shaofeng¡¯s Demon Core.
¡°You seek the Demon Core in my possession? On what grounds?¡± Chen Shaofeng dismissed him with a nce, continuing on his way.
Although the forest wasn¡¯t vast, leaving would consume precious time Chen Shaofeng preferred not to squander.
¡°Wretch! Refuse to surrender the Demon Core and I¡¯ll render you useless!¡±
He then turned to hispanion, demanding, ¡°What are you waiting for? Why allow the Demon Core to slip through our fingers?¡±
¡°Young master, leave it to me!¡±
The young man¡¯spanion, a nondescript middle-aged individual, bore an aura that belied his seemingly ordinary appearance. Chen Shaofeng discerned his strength was anything but ordinary.
In the preceding attack, Chen Shaofeng barely registered the middle-aged man¡¯s movements.
Potent! Incredibly potent!
This middle-aged figure likely stood at least at the 4th level of the Mortal Realm or higher, as evidenced by Chen Shaofeng¡¯s inability to discern his actions.
The assessment was simple: the middle-aged man possessed formidable strength.
¡°Young master!¡± I don¡¯t wish to be your adversary. Just relinquish the Demon Core; it benefits everyone,¡± pleaded the middle-aged man.
Disying a demeanor of resignation, the middle-aged man clearly disapproved of his master¡¯s actions, yet feltpelled to carry out his wishes.
¡°I must insist, you expect me to surrender the Demon Core? iming it¡¯s for everyone¡¯s benefit, yet I believe it¡¯s advantageous solely for yourselves!¡± Chen Shaofeng erupted in anger.
If they had approached amicably and purchased it with Genuine Spiritual Stone, he might have considered selling it at a loss.
However, from the moment they arrived, they sought to acquire the Demon Core without any mention of purchase. How could he not feel incensed?
Despite their seemingly noble words, weren¡¯t their actions akin to those of bandits?
¡°Since the Young Master refuses to part with the Demon Core, I have no choice but to act against you.¡±
It was evident the middle-aged man intended to resort to forceful means, but it was understandable. In this world, strengthmanded respect; all else was mere rhetoric.
None would underestimate his strength, hence he didn¡¯t rely on it solely to im what he desired. No one was that foolish.
Thus, as he uttered these words, his aura naturally surged.
As anticipated by Chen Shaofeng, upon releasing his aura, he immediately sensed intense pressure, diforting yet insufficient to triumph solely by aura.
No wonder such formidable pressure emanated from these three levels.
At that moment, the middle-aged man moved. Though seemingly slow, in Chen Shaofeng¡¯s perception, it was lightning fast.
With no time for contemtion, Chen Shaofeng swiftly employed his Cloud Walk technique, doubling his speed to narrowly evade the middle-aged man¡¯s strike.
¡°Impressive! You managed to evade my attack. However, the gap between our realms is too vast; even with footwork, you¡¯re helpless,¡± remarked the middle-aged man.
With his words, the middle-aged man elerated once more, seemingly materializing in front of Chen Shaofeng.
Simultaneously, he thrust his right fist toward Chen Shaofeng¡¯s chest, confident it would connect.
To his surprise, his punch didn¡¯tnd on Chen Shaofeng¡¯s chest but shed with his fist instead.
Unleashing its fury, the Crimson me Fist erupted in full force.
Despite being merely a low-level Yellow Rank martial skill, the opponent relied solely on physical prowess. Without employing any martial skill of their own, their strength, no matter how formidable, had its limitations.
Conversely, Chen Shaofeng wielded a martial skill, even if it was low-level. Against an ordinary physical attack, even one of considerable strength, the defense would prove insufficient. Moreover, the disparity in levels between them was merely three.
Impact!
As the middle-aged man¡¯s fist connected, sparks scattered in every direction, engulfing his hand in mes.
While Chen Shaofeng¡¯s punchcked overwhelming force, its fiery nature rendered it scorching hot.
Although this intense heat posed no real threat, its disruptive nature was sufficient. For Chen Shaofeng, any distraction caused to the middle-aged man provided an opportunity for counterattack.
Indeed, the middle-aged man had underestimated his adversary, fixating on the mes engulfing his hand while neglecting Chen Shaofeng¡¯s proximity.
Precisely this scenario was what Chen Shaofeng had hoped for.
Time was of the essence; there was no opportunity to employplex martial skills. With all his might, he thrust his fist towards the middle-aged man¡¯s face.
A martial artist¡¯s visage was often their most vulnerable spot.
Chen Shaofeng¡¯s Innate Second Level of Mortal Martial Stage endowed his blow with maximum effectiveness at the opponent¡¯s weakest moment. Striking elsewhere might not afford the same advantage, potentially squandering this opportune moment.
Chapter 12
C12 ¨C Over Level Combat
Bang!
Chen Shaofeng¡¯s right fist struck his left cheek, and a strong force surged out from within his fist.
At that moment, the left side of the middle-aged man¡¯s face began to twist and distort. The left side of his face waspletely deformed.
At the same time, spittle flew from his mouth, mixed with some fresh blood, causing a pained expression to appear on his face.
Of course, this was only a tiny bit.
Very quickly, the middle-aged man regained his senses, and quickly retreated, not allowing Chen Shaofeng to seed yet.
Since he missed this opportunity, it would be impossible to find another opportunity to attack like this. Therefore, he did not let the middle-aged man go, he retreated, and Chen Shaofeng charged forward, just like that, the two of their bodies were pressed tightly together, the distance between their bodies, was only separated by a fist.
Although it was only a fist¡¯s distance away, it was still difficult for Chen Shaofeng to get close to him.
Furthermore, the middle-aged man himself was extremely fast. It was obviously very difficult for Chen Shaofeng to maintain this kind of condition.
As the distance between them widened, Chen Shaofeng was helpless, the difference between the two of them was too huge.
If she really allowed him to get too far away from her, it would be too difficult to find another opportunity like this. Thinking of this, Chen Shaofeng didn¡¯t have the slightest bit of thought.
The Crimson me Fist was instantly released.
The me spread all over his fist, and the Zhen Qi inside his body started to revolve unceasingly, constantly flowing out of his body.
And with the continuous output of Zhen Yuan, it did indeed have a small effect. As for the me in his hand, it became even hotter.
At the same time, a powerful me aura spread out from his fist, violently colliding with the surrounding air. That fiery red cloud like movement seemed to ignite all of the air.
Fire clouds filled the sky.
The temperature of the surrounding space also rose rapidly.
¡°Crimson me Fist!¡±
Chen Shaofeng shouted as his fist that was filled with mes struck towards the middle-aged man¡¯s chest without any warning.
Although the middle-aged man had seen Chen Shaofeng¡¯s Crimson me Fist when he was striking out with his extremely fast speed, he still had to pause for a short moment before he could react.
However, because of this, Chen Shaofeng seized the best opportunity.
The Crimson me Fist struck out with all of his strength, using all of his strength. After all, Chen Shaofeng could not hide his strength anymore.
Boom!
The fist that was full of me directly flew towards his opponent, emitting a burst of light.
Smoke enveloped the figure of the person, causing Chen Shaofeng to not be able to see the situation clearly.
He had no choice but to stop. He didn¡¯t think that he missed because his fist really felt the opponent¡¯s body.
The smoke lingered for a while before dissipating.
¡°What a pity! If you and I were martial artists of the same realm, then that fist strike really would have caused great harm to me. However, your realm is too low. ¡°
At this moment, the figure of the middle aged man appeared in front of Chen Shaofeng. Before he could even react, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, and his body was sent flying backwards.
Fresh blood sttered everywhere. It was obvious that the punch from earlier had been very powerful.
Originally, with the middle-aged man¡¯s speed, wanting to make Chen Shaofeng fly backwards was an extremely simple matter.
But he did not give chase, and only stood at his original position, quietly waiting for Chen Shaofeng to stand up from the ground once again.
Chen Shaofeng also stood up as he wished. Even though he had taken a bit of time, his injuries were still insufficient to defeat him.
Chen Shaofeng looked at the middle aged man in front of him and felt bitter in his heart. He never thought that there would be such a difference of three levels, and with his current strength, unless he used the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, he would not be his match.
Was he really going to watch helplessly as the Demon Core that he had painstakingly obtained was handed over to the person in front of him?
No! Absolutely not!
If he gave up on such a small matter, how would he be a strong Ranker, and how would he be able to defeat Lee Junjie who had reached the Innate Elemental Martial Realm in one year?
Thinking about it, the aura on Chen Shaofeng¡¯s body rose again.
Although he didn¡¯t know if it would work, he had no choice but to do so.
He released all of the remaining true essence in his body and continuously operated the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts.
Borrowing the true energy in his body, the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts underwent a huge change as a domineering aura was released from his body. This was the path of domineering qi, which was unique to the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts after cultivation.
He did not understand much about this path of domineering qi, and the current him had only grasped a little of the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, so he was unable to disy its true power.
In the end, his cultivation level was still too low.
The attacks of the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts didn¡¯t have any form, you can release them however you want. Chen Shaofeng wanted to be like his father, using the form of a Energy Ball.
But at the same time, he knew that the Energy Ball would take a long time to form, and if he used his fist, he would be able to shoot it out in an instant.
Furthermore, he had always been using the Crimson me Fist, and was already ustomed to using his fists to attack. Naturally, only when the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts used his fists to attack, would he be able to release its full power.
Thinking about this, the moment the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts was formed, his body suddenly elerated.
With the enhancement of the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, Chen Shaofeng¡¯s speed had also improved by leaps and bounds. Countless Domineering Qi s were continuously released from his body, immediately causing the middle-aged man opposite him to be sluggish.
¡°Such a strong aura! This imposing aura is extremely tyrannical, and just this imposing aura is enough to contend against my imposing aura. ¡°
The middle-aged man did not dare to be careless anymore, and had already treated the current Chen Shaofeng as a practitioner of the same realm.
At the same time, his body released a powerful aura, and the imposing aura of the fifth floor of the Innate Mortal Martial was immediately released.
At the same time, the true energy within his body was constantly being mobilized. He finally decided to use martial skills.
The young man who was watching the battle from the side saw that Chen Shaofeng, who was of a simr age to him, could actually force the middle-aged man to use a martial skill, causing him to be extremely shocked.
At the same time, she secretly admired him in her heart.
He actually knew that although the middle-aged man looked like he was only at the fifth level of Innate Mortal Martial, his fighting strength was close to that of the sixth level of Innate Mortal Martial.
This was also the reason why his father allowed him to protect him as he travelled to the capital.
Furthermore, Chen Shaofeng was three realms lower than him, yet he was still able to force him into this state. It was enough to see just how strong Chen Shaofeng was.
He had always been respectful towards strong warriors, and now, his eyes shone brightly. He thought to himself, if only he could have the same fighting strength as Chen Shaofeng.
Thinking of this, he seemed to have made some sort of decision as he fiercely nodded his head.
At the same time, Chen Shaofeng who was in the middle of fighting had already been fully prepared, and his Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts was instantly released.
Endless power, filled with the will to kill, shot toward the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man was ready as well, and an extremely powerful ripple of energy appeared on the surface of his body.
When Chen Shaofeng rushed out, he also rushed out at the same time, unreservedly releasing the attack from the fifth level of the Innate Mortal Martial.
Chapter 13
C13 ¨C Take a Younger Brother
¡°Origin Convergence Palm!¡±
¡°Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts!¡±
The palm and the fist exploded the moment they got close to each other.
Boom!
The two iparably powerful energies continued to collide against each other, creating waves of shockwaves. Even the surrounding air had been cut off, making it impossible for it to flow over.
Only after facing this situation for a good while, did the middle-aged man begin to struggle. Although Chen Shaofeng had no true energy left in his body, the power of the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts was extremely strong, to actually be able to suppress the middle-aged man in the fifth level of the Innate Mortal Martial. From the looks of it, he could not hold on for long.
As expected, when Chen Shaofeng had only a little bit of his true strength left, the middle-aged man could no longer withstand the might of the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts and was immediately sent flying by Chen Shaofeng¡¯s fist.
The Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts was not a normal martial skill, it was a martial skill at the seventh stage of the Yellow Level, and it was only high enough, how could he withstand such a martial skill.
The middle-aged man who was hit by the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts¡¯s fist directly smashed into the tree behind him. He broke a few trees in a row before finallying to a stop.
At this moment, his body was covered in blood and he looked to be in an extremely sorry state.
After all, he was an expert of the fifth floor of the Innate Mortal Martial. There was a difference of three levels between him and Chen Shaofeng, so it was reasonable that he did not immediately kill him.
At this time, Chen Shaofeng also arrived in front of the middle-aged man and looked at him.
¡°I truly never would have thought that you would have such a powerful martial skill and could fight those above your level. You are indeed powerful.¡±
With that, the middle-aged man coughed out another mouthful of blood.
¡°I know you aren¡¯t using your full strength at all. If you were to use your full strength at the start, I wouldn¡¯t be able to block your attack.¡± Chen Shaofeng said.
The middle-aged man shook his head and said, ¡°I did indeed have a hidden strength earlier, but I didn¡¯t hide it at all. I lost, I lostpletely.¡±
¡°I only win in terms of martial skillspared to you.¡±
Chen Shaofeng didn¡¯t really think that he was that strong. After all, he knew that he was in a very sorry state at the beginning.
¡°Martial skills are also a part of one¡¯s strength.¡± The middle-aged man said seriously.
Chen Shaofeng did not say anything. He knew that what the middle-aged man said was the truth.
Actually, not only martial skills, weapons, cultivation techniques, talent, and karmic luck are all part of one¡¯s strength. No one thinks that your equipment is better than others.
Only a fool would say such words. In this world where martial arts were revered, everything depended on strength. No one would care if your martial arts were better than others, or if your martial arts weren¡¯t as good as theirs.
Because this was a part of his strength and also part of his lucky chance, he also agreed with the middle-aged man¡¯s words.
¡°Go ahead! However, I hope that you can let our Young Master go. His nature isn¡¯t bad, he just has the temperament of a child from a n. ¡± The middle-aged man pleaded.
Chen Shaofeng nced at the youngsters beside him, but did not attack again. Instead, he turned around and said: ¡°You may leave! I know that if not for your leniency in the beginning, I would be the one lying on the ground now. ¡°
With that, Chen Shaofeng wanted to leave the ce.
But just at that moment, that young man directly rushed in front of him and blocked his path.
When Chen Shaofeng saw this, his brows furrowed slightly. He asked unhappily, ¡°What are you trying to do?¡±
Following that, after a shocking scene, the youth actually kneeled on the ground and apologized to Chen Shaofeng: ¡°Big Brother! I¡¯m sorry! ¡°I shouldn¡¯t have done such a thing just now, but I just had a breakthrough in my cultivation and am in a hurry to stabilize my cultivation. In addition, I saw the Demon Core in your hands, so I¡¯m really sorry for wanting to take your Demon Core.
¡°What are you doing!?¡± Get up, don¡¯t you know that men have gold under their knees? ¡°
Chen Shaofeng was at a loss as to what to do as well, and quickly helped him up.
¡°Big brother will not forgive me!¡± I won¡¯t get up. ¡± The youth stubbornly said.
¡°Since I¡¯ve already let you leave, I naturally won¡¯t pursue the matter any further. However, can you not call me big brother?¡±
Chen Shaofeng was also helpless, the two of them were not that far apart in age, and when the youth opened his mouth, he immediately called him big brother, no wonder he felt that it was weird.
¡°I don¡¯t care. I¡¯ve already determined that you¡¯re my elder brother. Then, you¡¯re my elder brother for life.¡± The youth said with a serious expression.
Chen Shaofeng naturally would not believe him 100%. In the end, it was reasonable that he had his men snatch him away.
These youths all knew the truth, and the reason he made such a decision was entirely because he was subdued by Chen Shaofeng¡¯s strength.
The two of them were about the same age, but the difference in their strength was so great. It was no wonder that this youth would have such an expression.
¡°Alright!¡± You can get up. ¡°
Chen Shaofeng speechlessly looked at him kneeling on the ground, and thought that if he did not agree, then neither could he.
But in order for him to get up, he still gave in.
Only then did the young man stand up happily and introduce, ¡°Big brother! My name is Du Ping¡¯ang! It¡¯s the Second Young Master of Brahma City¡¯s Du Family. My parents allowed me to live a peaceful life, so they gave me this name. ¡°
Then, he pointed to the injured middle-aged man in front of him and said, ¡°He is my Du Family¡¯s head guard, Uncle Ming. He is in charge of escorting me to the capital to participate in the Great Tang Academy entrance exam.¡±
Chen Shaofeng also said: ¡°My name is Chen Shaofeng! They are the sons of the Chi Yunhou s. When they came out this time, they were also going to the capital to participate in the Great Tang Academy entrance exam. ¡°
¡°Wah!¡± Big brother is actually the young duke! Since our targets are all Great Tang Academy, why don¡¯t we travel together! ¡± Du Ping¡¯ang said happily.
With regards to Chen Shaofeng agreeing to recognize him as big brother, he was especially happy.
¡°Young Master Chen! ¡°Please help me protect my young master and get him to the capital. With my current injuries, I won¡¯t be able to move forward, please.¡± Uncle Ming pleaded.
Hearing his plea, Chen Shaofeng was also extremely helpless, but he had no reason to reject it.
There was nothing he could do, Uncle Ming¡¯s injury was caused by him, and it was reasonable that he would not let Du Ping¡¯ang go, furthermore Du Ping¡¯ang had already called him big brother.
As the eldest brother, how could he let him stay alone in this forest?
One must know that Demonic Beast could appear in the forest at any time.
If it was a normal Demonic Beast, it would be alright. But once a Demonic Beast with a higher rank appeared,, who had just levelled up, would not be able to escape.
¡°Don¡¯t worry!¡± Uncle Ming! Since Ping An is already my brother, I will naturally guarantee his safety. ¡°
Chen Shaofeng paused for a moment, before continuing, ¡°However, you are also aware that my strength is limited, so no one can guarantee whether or not he will be in danger.¡±
¡°Thank you, Young Master Chen! ¡°Then I¡¯ll take my leave first.¡±
He did not dare to stay here any longer, as this ce was filled with Demonic Beast after all. Even though he was an expert of the fifth floor of the Innate Mortal Martial, he was still confident that he could survive this ce.
After Uncle Ming left, Chen Shaofeng said to Du Ping¡¯ang: ¡°We should also go!¡±
Du Ping¡¯ang nodded and followed Chen Shaofeng out of the forest.
The forest could be considered small, so there weren¡¯t many Demonic Beast in the first stage or above. After that, Chen Shaofeng encountered another early stage first stage Demonic Beast, which was also killed by Chen Shaofeng.
Only, the Demonic Beast did not fall out of the body.
Thinking about it, it made sense. Demon Core were so rare, and it was precisely because of the low chance of dropping them.
Chapter 14
C14 ¨C Help
Following their departure from the forest, Chen Shaofeng and Yue Shan trekked for another half a day until they reached a diminutive city.
With dusk encroaching, the duo decided to dine and lodge at a local tavern for the night, nning to resume their journeye morning, as they still had nearly two weeks until the Great Tang Academy entrance exam.
¡°Waiter!¡± Du Ping¡¯ang boisterously hailed upon entering the inn. ¡°Bring forth your finest wines and fare!¡±
His promation echoed through the establishment as they crossed the threshold.
Seizing a vacant table, they swiftly settled into their seats.
¡°What will you two be having?¡± inquired the waiter with a genial smile, approaching their table.
¡°Do you notprehend? If we order premium dishes and wine, do you doubt our ability to settle the bill?¡± Du Ping¡¯ang retorted, a touch of irritation creeping into his tone, revealing his ingrained n upbringing.
Du Ping¡¯ang¡¯s discontent surfaced promptly, a reflection of his n-bred habits.
cing his pouch of gold upon the table, he signaled his willingness to pay.
Upon spotting the bag of gold, the waiter¡¯s smile widened, eximing joyfully, ¡°Excellent! I shall attend to your needs forthwith.¡±
Chen Shaofeng remained unperturbed by these exchanges. To him, money was merely an external concern; had they not been outside, he wouldn¡¯t have even carried any.
Considering their overnight stay, he turned to Du Ping¡¯ang, remarking, ¡°I¡¯ll secure a room for us.¡±
¡°Big brother! I¡¯ll go!¡±
Du Ping¡¯ang rose and strode towards the counter, regardless of Chen Shaofeng¡¯s concurrence.
Initially overwhelmed by Du Ping¡¯ang¡¯s fervor, Chen Shaofeng gradually limated and began to trust Uncle Ming¡¯s counsel.
Du Ping¡¯ang wasn¡¯t inherently malevolent; rather, he harbored certain affluent habits typical of disciples from prominent ns, habits that could be gradually amended.
Despite their brief acquaintance, Chen Shaofeng trusted his intuition. Thus, he tacitly acknowledged Du Ping¡¯ang as his younger brother.
As they awaited Du Ping¡¯ang¡¯s arrangement for a room and meal, they idly surveyed their surroundings. Unbeknownst to them, an elderly man and a young girl had entered the tavern.
The girl, aged fourteen or fifteen, was a few years younger than Chen Shaofeng. Despite her shabby attire, her beauty shone through.
However, Chen Shaofeng¡¯s concern wasn¡¯t solely her appearance; rather, it was the young man forcibly tugging her along while the feeble old man attempted to intervene.
The young man shoved the old man vehemently, threatening, ¡°Old man! It¡¯s your lucky day that I¡¯ve taken a liking to your granddaughter. If you dare obstruct me again, I¡¯ll hasten your demise.¡±
Powerless against the youth, the old man sumbed to the push.
Meanwhile, the young man addressed the girl with a sinister grin, ¡°Girl! Come with me, and I¡¯ll provide you with sumptuous meals for life, ensuring your welfare.¡±
The girl, independent in her thoughts despite her youth, retorted defiantly, ¡°I¡¯d rather die than go with you!¡±
¡°Your decision is inconsequential.¡±
The young man¡¯s smirk widened as he exerted force, pulling the girl closer. Witnessing her imminent capture, bystanders could only sigh helplessly.
Aware of the young man¡¯s formidable stature, onlookers resigned themselves to the inevitable, watching as the girl fell prey to this tyrant.
Just as despair enveloped the crowd, arge hand seized the girl¡¯s other hand and whisked her away.
Then, a voice echoed in the young man¡¯s ear.
¡°If she refuses to apany you, why must you make her life difficult?¡±
Caught off guard, the young man erupted in anger. He mmed the table and rose to his feet, bellowing, ¡°Insolent brat! Do you dare to interfere in my affairs, Chen Tai¡¯s affairs? Do you value your life at all?¡±
Without uttering another word, Chen Tai charged toward the source of the voice.
It was evident that the person acting wasn¡¯t Chen Shaofeng. Seeing Chen Tai approach, he disyed a disdainful expression and remarked, ¡°To openly attempt abduction in an inn, truly disgraceful conduct for someone of your stature. As someone of the same gender, I am thoroughly ashamed.¡±
¡°I, Chen Tai, have no need for your concern regarding my affairs. If you possess any wisdom, relinquish the girl in your possession, or prepare to face dire consequences,¡± Chen Tai shouted furiously.
¡°Then I am truly curious about the crimson hue of flowers,¡± Chen Shaofeng responded impassively.
¡°You¡¯re asking for death!¡±
Chen Tai lunged forward, aiming a punch at Chen Shaofeng¡¯s torso.
Despite his swiftness, Chen Tai paled inparison to Chen Shaofeng¡¯s agility. In a swift motion, Chen Shaofeng sidestepped, causing Chen Tai¡¯s fist to meet nothing but empty air.
Exerting too much force, Chen Tai lost his bncepletely, tumbling forward with his limbs iling in the air.
Hahahaha!
Laughter erupted from the gathering, including Chen Shaofeng and others.
These individuals harbored deep-seated resentment towards Chen Tai for his past transgressions. Were it not for his influential father, they would have reprimanded him long ago.
Their jubtion at his current predicament was palpable.
Hearing the derisiveughter, Chen Tai¡¯s fury intensified.
¡°Insolent brat! If I don¡¯t teach you a lesson today, my name isn¡¯t Chen Tai.¡±
Suddenly, a loud noise resounded.
Chen Tai¡¯s aura surged abruptly. Thoughcking in formal training or techniques, his innate talent wasmendable. Presently, he had attained mastery at the Great Circle of the True Realm.
He stood on the cusp of the Innate Mortal Martial realm.
It was quite an achievement for amoner¡¯s offspring to attain such strength in a small city. Despite his youth¡ªbarely twenty¡ªhe had achieved notable prowess.
However, such strength paled inparison to Chen Shaofeng¡¯s.
While Chen Tai exuded a formidable aura, it paled inparison to his appearance. Confronted by him, Chen Shaofeng remained steadfast, not budging an inch.
Observing Chen Shaofeng¡¯s disdainful expression, Chen Tai¡¯s fury intensified. Anguish consumed him, hisplexion resembling a pig¡¯s liver.
Atst, Chen Taiunched his assault, delivering a powerful blow aimed at Chen Shaofeng.
Despite his relentless onught, Chen Shaofeng remained unmoved, as immovable as Mount Tai.
Conversely, Chen Tai gasped for air, beads of sweat forming on his brow.
After a prolonged struggle, Chen Tai ceased, his breathsbored. His rage morphed into astonishment, stunned by Chen Shaofeng¡¯s strength.
Yet, fear eluded him. This was his domain, belonging to Chen Tai.
Even acknowledging Chen Shaofeng¡¯s superiority didn¡¯t alter the situation.
¡°Feeling exhausted, are we? Now it¡¯s my turn,¡± Chen Shaofeng remarked calmly.
Addressing the little girl tenderly, Chen Shaofeng instructed, ¡°Stand aside and witness how your brother defeats this viin.¡±
¡°Be cautious, brother!¡± Thepliant little girlplied, stepping aside.
Chen Shaofeng offered her a gentle smile.
With a swift motion, he darted forward. Before Chen Tai could react, Chen Shaofeng stood before him.
Chapter 15
C15 ¨C Capriciousness
Bang!
His right fist struck the side of Chen Qin¡¯s face.
His body was sent flying and he even smashed the table behind him into pieces.
Fortunately, there was no one at that table, which was why no one had suffered.
Other people might not have gotten into trouble, but Chen Tai was in trouble, his butt was blooming like a flower. He shouted loudly and held onto his butt, obviously his fall was not light.
¡°What kind of person is causing trouble here? Could it be that you all don¡¯t know that this is Huang City, and that fighting in the city is prohibited?¡±
At this time, several city guards entered the inn.
¡°Who did it, stand up for me.¡± At this time, one of the city guards who looked like a captain spoke.
Just that, when he walked into the tavern, he found out that Chen Tai was lying on the ground and was rubbing his buttocks nonstop.
He immediately went forward to support him, and asked: ¡°Young Master Tai! What¡¯s the matter with you? Just who hit you? ¡°
Captain of City Guard was immediately furious. He knew Chen Tai¡¯s identity, he was the City Lord¡¯s son, and the City Lord was their Huang City¡¯s local tyrant.
With this said, Chen Tai was equivalent to the crown prince of Huang City, and now that the crown prince had been knocked to the ground by someone, and looking at the situation, his injuries were not light either, which immediately made him shocked.
He knew that once the City Lord found out about this and med him, his Captain of City Guard woulde to an end.
If he made a mistake, he would lose his head. Thinking about that, he immediately shouted in anger, ¡°Speak! Who actually beat up Young Master Tai? ¡°
Everyone present looked at each other. Some people directly looked at Chen Shaofeng.
This time, the city guard captain naturally saw it, and immediately looked at Chen Shaofeng, saying angrily: ¡°Was it you who beat Young Master Tai?¡±
¡°That¡¯s me!¡±
Chen Shaofeng replied very calmly, as if he did not put the city guards in his eyes at all.
¡°That¡¯s not right!¡± I hit him. ¡°
Unknowingly, Du Ping¡¯ang had arrived in front of Chen Shaofeng and immediately replied.
Chen Shaofeng immediately turned to look at Du Ping¡¯ang, only to see Du Ping¡¯ang winking at him, causing him to feel a sense of warmth inside.
In the past, he had always lived under the ridicule and ridicule of others. Other than his father, no one else had given him such a warm feeling.
This was the first time someone gave him this feeling, and that was Du Ping¡¯ang. He suddenly realised that recognizing Du Ping¡¯ang as hisckey was indeed not wrong.
After all, he was able toe out at this time and take responsibility for him. This clearly showed his true feelings.
But how could he make him bear all of this?
But his aura was extremely stable, and he even had the feeling of a faint breakthrough. It could be seen that he had already reached the peak of the first level of Innate Mortal Martial, that he could break through to the innate Second Level of Mortal Martial Stage at any time, so how could Du Ping¡¯ang defeat such an opponent?
What¡¯s more, this matter was caused by him, so it should naturally be left to him to resolve.
¡°Alright!¡± I understand your feelings, but you are not his match yet, so just let me do it! ¡°
Chen Shaofeng smiled lightly at Du Ping¡¯ang, then retracted his smile, and looked at the city guard captain in front of him.
¡°Since you¡¯ve admitted it,e with me! If you are able to harm Young Master Tai, the City Lord will naturally give you some punishment. ¡± Captain of City Guard said.
¡°Did I say I would go with you? Moreover, what qualifications does your so-called City Lord have to punish me? I do not believe that I was wrong. ¡°
Speaking to this point, Chen Shaofeng muttered to himself for a moment, and continued: ¡°On the contrary, I feel that if I say I was wrong, the first one to be wrong is your so called City Lord Master, if not for his love, would his son steal my daughter in broad daylight?¡±
¡°Snatching amoner? Who saw it? You better not nder good people. ¡± Captain of City Guard swept his gaze across everyone present and said.
¡°No!¡±
¡°No!¡±
¡°None!¡±
¡°¡¡±
Chen Shaofeng looked at everyone present, and they all lowered their heads, and instantly felt helpless. He did not mind such a thing;
However, Du Ping¡¯ang had lived a veryfortable life since young, and had never seen such a situation before. Thus, when these people all lowered their heads, they immediately said angrily: ¡°Your eyes all grow on the top of your head? ¡°You actually lied with your eyes wide open. This is so infuriating.¡±
¡°Alright!¡± Now you all have nothing to say! ¡°
Captain of City Guard shouted to his own team leader, ¡°Take them both away!¡±
¡°You want to take us away? On what basis? ¡°
At that moment, Chen Shaofeng¡¯s expression became cold, although he was used to seeing the fickleness of human nature, it did not mean that he would surrender, furthermore, he was not at fault, why did he listen to them and follow them?
¡°Just based on the fact that you beat up Young Master Tai, you actually dared to nder Young Master Tai and forcefully snatch amoner girl. It wouldn¡¯t even be enough for you to die a thousand times like this.¡± Captain of City Guard coldly snorted.
¡°Wait!¡± I saw what you said about Young Master Tai stealing my daughter. ¡°
Just then, the old man who had copsed on the ground stood up and walked to the front of Captain of City Guard.
The little girl was naturally also apanying him.
¡°I also saw him robbing amoner.¡± The little girl said angrily.
Chen Shaofeng also did not expect the two of them to stand out, which immediately warmed his heart. At least his good intentions were not in vain.
But at the same time, he started to worry, since the two of them were both ordinary people with no power, if this Captain of City Guard were to attack by force, their lives would really be in danger.
Thinking about that, Chen Shaofeng became cautious, as long as Captain of City Guard made a move, he would take action.
At this time, the Captain of City Guard did not expect that just when he was about to be arrested, he would suddenly be so angry.
He stared at the two of them and threatened, ¡°Are you sure you¡¯re not mistaken?¡±
¡°Of course not!¡± The two of them spoke at the same time.
¡°Why should I believe you?¡± The Captain of City Guard said coldly.
¡°Because the person he wants to snatch is me, how can I not know as his client?¡± the little girl said angrily.
Hearing that, Captain of City Guard immediatelyughed out loud. ¡°Who would believe me if I were to testify for myself? Do you think I¡¯m an idiot? ¡°Little girl!¡±
Chen Shaofeng had already known from the beginning that these two people¡¯s testimony were useless, so he couldn¡¯t avoid this battle. Therefore, he was already prepared to make his move.
Sure enough, afterughing loudly, Captain of City Guard¡¯s expression immediately turned cold.
¡°Take them with us!¡± Do you dare to nder Young Master Tai because none of them want to live anymore? ¡°
He then shouted, ¡°If you dare to resist, kill him!¡±
His words were naturally a warning to everyone present, to the point that those who were ready to make a movepletely gave up.
At this time, Chen Tai walked step by step in front of Chen Shaofeng, andughed unrestrainedly. I¡¯ll make you be even more unreasonable! ¡°I want to see how you are going to do it now that you have fallen into my hands. From now on, I¡¯ll let you have a good time.¡±
¡°Idiot!¡±
Chen Shaofeng was toozy to talk to this idiot, he directly went in front of the old man and little girl and protected them.
¡°Bastard!¡± Stinking brat, how dare you call me an idiot. If I don¡¯t teach you a lesson, you won¡¯t know what methods I, Chen Tai, have. ¡°
Saying that, Chen Tai wanted to make his move.
Only, just as he was about to attack, Du Ping¡¯ang appeared in front of him and sent a p flying.
Chapter 16
C16 ¨C Too Slow
Pow!
A distinct, sharp crack echoed, prompting everyone to turn their bewildered gazes toward Du Ping¡¯ang, standing before them.
Never had they imagined Du Ping¡¯ang would dare to strike Chen Tai in this scenario; it was akin to pulling teeth from a tiger!
Chen Shaofeng, too, gazed helplessly at his younger brother. He wished to block his path downstairs, forcing him to retreat, but he could only ascend with resolve.
¡°I¡¯ve always fantasized about such a punch, but experiencing it is beyond satisfying.¡±
Du Ping¡¯ang wore a blissful expression, oblivious to the gravity of their situation.
¡°You might be relishing this moment, but we can¡¯t linger here much longer,¡± Chen Shaofeng remarked, exasperated.
As anticipated, when Chen Shaofeng and Yue Shan nced at the City Guard Captain, his countenance had darkened considerably, exuding a menacing aura that instilled fear in onlookers.
Simultaneously, his presence intensified, his simmering rage manifesting in fiery tendrils.
Fury!
It consumed him entirely, eclipsing any other emotion, surpassing even the ire felt toward the battered Chen Tai.
After all, he held the title of City Guard Captain, entrusted with the city¡¯s security. How could he not be incensed by the assault on a youth under his watch?
Anticipating the Mayor¡¯s wrath upon learning of the incident, he resolved to apprehend the perpetrators swiftly, offering them up for whatever punishment awaited.
Thus, before news reached the Mayor¡¯s ears, he aimed to apprehend these prime suspects, hoping it might secure his own survival.
With resolve, the City Guard Captainunched his assault.
Without warning, the aura of a first-level Innate Mortal Martial practitioner surged forth. Judging by the youths¡¯ appearance, he deemed them mere adolescents of seventeen or eighteen;
Hence, he was utterly confident in his ability to subdue them.
Yet reality proved harsh. Despite his conviction to battle those above his station, his current strength fell short; he couldn¡¯t even hope to match Chen Shaofeng, let alone defeat him.
Not to mention his cultivation, which alone surpassed the City Guard Captain¡¯s own.
Before he could react, Chen Shaofeng struck.
¡°Too sluggish!¡±
Startled, the City Guard Captain felt a swift impact to his face, sending him reeling.
He was utterly defenseless.
¡°Pathetic!¡± Pathetic! As a Captain of the City Guard, you can¡¯t even handle a punk like this. I¡¯ll inform my father and have you reced,¡± Chen Tai spat out in fury.
The City Guard Captain flushed with embarrassment under Chen Tai¡¯s scolding.
Indeed, despite being well into his forties, he was bested by a mere youth in one swift move.
Paying no heed to his injuries, he leaped up, drawing his sword from its sheath without hesitation.
Chen Shaofeng immediately recognized the quality of the sword before him.
To his knowledge, this de had likely reached the status of a middle-grade artifact within the Yellow Level.
For someone at the first level of Innate Mortal Martial, possessing such a weapon wasmendable.
Apart from his fists, Chen Shaofengcked other armaments.
It wasn¡¯t that Chi Yunhou¡¯s mansioncked weaponry, but Chen Shaofeng hadmitted solely to unarmedbat, rendering conventional arms useless to him.
Thus, he understood the importance of honing his body¡¯s strength to enhance his offensive capabilities.
For strength to burgeon, the body had to be robust.
As the City Guard Captain unsheathed his sword, his body surged forward, true essence emanating from every pore.
The de emitted a sharp aura as it descended toward Chen Shaofeng¡¯s head.
Yet, Chen Shaofeng paid the attack little heed. The movements seemed sluggish, riddled with openings. Without resorting to his fists, he delivered a direct kick.
The Captain¡¯s speed appeared hampered, perhaps due to recent injuries, leaving him unable to evade.
Sympathy was thest thing on Chen Shaofeng¡¯s mind.
He had sided with evil, and regardless of circumstance, that was unpardonable.
¡°Time to finish this!¡±
Chen Shaofeng had no intention of prolonging the confrontation with the City Guard Captain; lingering in the city posed risks for them both. He desired no furtherplications.
Though Huang City was modest in size, ascending to its rulership necessitated a minimum of Ninth Level in the Innate Mortal Martial Stage.
He might even be at the initial stage of Spiritual Martial Force, leaving him defenseless.
Against his current prowess, even Ninth Level Innate Mortal Martial Stage warriors could dispatch him effortlessly. The gap between their levels was simply insurmountable.
¡°Crimson me Fist!¡±
Chen Shaofeng uttered these wordsposedly. Simultaneously, his true energy surged within him, emitting the aura of a Second Level Innate Mortal Martial Stage, stunning the City Guard Captain before him.
The Captain hadn¡¯t anticipated such strength from Chen Shaofeng at his age.
Before he could ponder, intense mes coalesced around Chen Shaofeng¡¯s fist. The fire, wild and uncontrolled, extended to the surroundings, causing everyone to feel the scorching heat.
Boom!
The Crimson me Fist unleashed, engulfing the inn in mes, escting the temperature rapidly.
Just as the City Guard Captain braced for impact, he realized the attack targeted the furniture, not him.
Suspicion crept in. What was Chen Shaofeng¡¯s intent?
Chen Shaofeng had his strategy. He understood that killing the City Guard Captain would only escte matters. Swift escape was imperative to evade the City Lord¡¯s inevitable intervention.
Thus, amidst the chaos, he grabbed Du Ping¡¯ang and fled.
Yet, he didn¡¯t abandon the old man and the little girl.
Leaving them behind meant they¡¯d face retribution.
Acting in ordance with his conscience was paramount; otherwise, he¡¯d perpetrate more harm, which he abhorred.
Chen Tai and the City Guard Captain grasped this too. Chen Tai¡¯s rebuke echoed, ¡°Idiot! Why hesitate? Are you content witnessing their escape from Huang City?¡±
Chen Tai, despite his airs,prehended certain realities. Inside Huang City, they could capture them. Outside, they¡¯d be elusive.
Once beyond Huang City¡¯s boundaries, their pursuit would be futile against external powers.
They risked a gruesome end if they crossed certain factions.
Thus, their only recourse was preventing Chen Shaofeng¡¯s entry into Huang City.
¡°Understood!¡±
Despite his inferiority to Yue Yang, the City Guard Captain had no choice but to pursue.
Chen Tai understood the guards¡¯ limitations and sought aid from the City Lord¡¯s Mansion¡¯s experts.
Knowing Chen Shaofeng andpanions couldn¡¯t flee swiftly with the old man and girl in tow, they¡¯d eventually be caught.
Utilizing the vulnerable pair would impede their escape.
Chapter 17
Chapter 17 - Large Sess of Fist Art
Chen Shaofeng, who was running away, naturally did not know about this, nor did he know about Chen Tai''s conspiracy.
Right now, they were only constantly running towards the city gate. They believed that as long as they and the rest escaped from the Huang City, it would not be so easy for those people to deal with them.
More importantly, once they escaped from the Huang City, they could escape in different directions and also find a ce to hide.
However, his thoughts were good, but reality was cruel.
If the two of them were the only ones who could quickly leave the Huang City, then how could their speed be so fast? It was just two people, and the existence of the old man and little girl.
After walking in the city for the time it took for an incense stick to burn, he still had not seen the city gate. Behind him, the city guards had also caught up, making Chen Shaofeng feel extremely helpless.
Obviously, he couldn''t just leave the old man and the two of them alone.
The old man clearly understood their situation, he immediately said to Chen Shaofeng: ¡°Young master! You won''t be able to escape the Huang City if you bring us along like this. Right now, I am already a person who has stepped into a coffin, so my death isn''t enough to be deplorable. I only hope that you can remove Meng Er''s safety belt from the Huang City and I will be satisfied. ¡°
¡°NO!¡± Grandpa! I''m not leaving! I want to be with Grandpa. ¡± Meng Er said while crying.
¡°Meng Er, be good! ¡°Although you were picked up by grandfather, grandfather treats you like his own granddaughter, and grandfather is also very reluctant to part with you. However, if you continue to bring grandfather along, you will all die here. No matter what, you must leave and be obedient.¡±
The old man then turned to Chen Shaofeng and said: ¡°Young Noble! Please! ¡°
¡°Old man!¡± You don''t have to say anymore! I will not give up on you. We have to stay and stay together, and we have to leave together. Furthermore, even if we get caught up, we might still have the strength to fight back. ¡°
Chen Shaofeng obviously would not give up on the old man. He was not the type of person for us to flee for our lives.
¡°Brother is right!¡± Old man! We certainly won''t leave you alone. ¡± Du Ping''ang said at this time.
¡°Thank you, brother!¡± Meng Er finally revealed a happy smile.
¡°But ¡¡±
The old man still wanted to say something, but was mercilessly interrupted by Chen Shaofeng: ¡°Elder! You don''t have to say it! If you die, Meng Er will be hurt, do you want to see Meng Er hurt? ¡°
The old man opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, it turned into a powerless sigh.
¡°Then this old man will ask for your help, two gongzis.¡± The old man said helplessly.
¡°Leave it to us!¡± Before Chen Shaofeng could say anything, Du Ping''ang interrupted him and said.
Chen Shaofeng looked at the pursuers behind him, then said to everyone: ¡°We can''t stay here anymore, we need to leave quickly, the city guards behind will immediately catch up.¡±
After saying that, the four of them rushed towards the city gate.
Just that, before they could even run a few steps, the silhouette of the city guards appeared in front of them. Just that, when they were about to run back, Chen Tai appeared in front of them with a cheap smile, and beside him was another person.
This person gave Chen Shaofeng an unfathomable feeling.
Upon closer examination, he realized how powerful he was.
Chen Tai walked step by step in front of Chen Shaofeng and arrogantly said: ¡°Run! Run! If you have the ability, run again? ¡°
¡°Chen Tai, you really forgot Scar now that you''ve recovered from your pain, right? ¡°Do you want me to give you another p?¡±
Looking at Chen Tai''s arrogant appearance, Du Ping''ang''s anger started to rise. Compared to his arrogance, he remembered that when he was in the Brahma City, he was really like a little witch meeting a great wizard.
¡°Bastard!¡± Just you wait, I won''t let you go. ¡°
When he thought of that p earlier, Chen Tai still felt a faint burning pain on his face.
¡°Chen Tai! If you want to deal with us, you can, but you need to let the old man and Meng Er leave this ce. ¡°
No matter what, Chen Shaofeng had to protect the two of them. At that time, they would truly fight, and would not be able to take care of them.
¡°You want me to let them go? Don''t even think about it!¡± Chen Tai decisively refused.
¡°Then there''s no other way!¡±
Chen Shaofeng took a step forward, and just as he was about to make a move, the man beside Chen Tai moved as well.
¡°The second level of the Innate Human Realm is not bad, but you do not have the qualifications to fight Young Master Tai.¡±
As the man spoke, he released his aura, and the aura of the fourth level of the Innate Mortal Martial unreservedly surged out from his body.
So powerful!
As expected of an expert at the fourth level of Innate Mortal Martial. If he was a normal innate expert, he would have been smashed to death by his opponent in just a few exchanges.
Even if it was him, without using the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, it would be impossible for him to defeat Yue Yang.
Only, it was fortunate that he had the experience of fighting with a expert of the fifth floor of Innate Mortal Martial before, so he wouldn''t be forced into a situation where he couldn''t retaliate at all.
¡°Die!¡±
While Chen Shaofeng was thinking, the man started to move.
He also didn''t make any unnecessary movements, he only approached Chen Shaofeng with pure speed and struck towards Chen Shaofeng with his own fist. It seemed like he was extremely confident in his attack.
To put it nicely, he had confidence. To put it crudely, he was looking down on Chen Shaofeng. In the end, Chen Shaofeng''s cultivation level was just too low.
Only, he didn''t know that if he were to usemon sense to deduce Chen Shaofeng, he would be too naive.
As expected, when he punched out, Chen Shaofeng did not n to dodge at all, and he also punched out at the same time. Of course, it was impossible for him to truly use his own body to fight back.
¡°Crimson me Fist!¡±
Other than the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, the only martial skills Chen Shaofeng could use were the Crimson me Fist and the Cloud Walk.
But the attacking technique was only Crimson me Fist.
In this period of time, he had been using the Crimson me Fist a little too frequently, which was no wonder. After all, the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts could not be used easily.
However, the advantage of using it frequently was that he, who originally only had the Crimson me Fist of a small city, sessfully reached the Mastery Stage.
There was a qualitative increase in its power, to the point that when he used this fist to block the fist of the man in front of him, he actually turned the tables around.
The powerful me Fist head destroyed the opponent''s fist, and even attacked his body directly.
Boom!
The smoke enveloped the other party''s body.
However, such an attack was not enough to deal with him. Although the man looked to be in a sorry state, it could be seen that he wasn''t seriously injured.
But that was already enough. In the end, the other party was still an expert who was at least two levels higher than Chen Shaofeng.
¡°Good!¡± Good! Very good! Very good! ¡°You''re already proud of yourself for actually injuring me. In that case, you can die in peace.¡± The man said calmly.
Behind this serenity, there was boundless rage.
Anger! How could he not be angry?
He was an expert of the fourth level of Innate Mortal Martial, but when he was actually facing a martial artist two levels lower than him, he was instead attacked. How could he not be angry?
The result of his anger was naturally his first move.
Unknowingly, arge de appeared in the man''s hand. With the force of a sweeping sh, it hacked down violently at Chen Shaofeng''s head.
Even Chen Tai, who was watching the two battle, did not expect Chen Shaofeng to be so powerful, to actually make the man in front of him take out his big de, which made him feel uneasy.
He originally wanted to wait until the man finished off Chen Shaofeng before making his decision. However, looking at the situation now, it was obvious that he couldn''t wait any longer.
From the looks of it, it was not going to be so easy to determine the victor in such a short period of time.
Thinking about it, he immediately arrived in front of Captain of City Guard.
Chapter 18
C18 ¨C Death of the Elderly
Chen Tai whispered to him, ¡°Later, you go and dy that person. As long as you can hold him off, I won¡¯t hold your past mistakes against you.¡±
Upon hearing this, the Captain of the City Guard was ted. ¡°Yes! Young Master Tai!¡±
He then walked over eagerly.
Without a word, he immediately attacked Du Ping¡¯ang.
Du Ping¡¯ang never expected the Captain of the City Guard to strike again. Even though they were both at the first level of Innate Mortal Martial, he had just entered this level.
To be honest, he probably wouldn¡¯t stand a chance in a real fight.
Fortunately, the Captain of the City Guard had sustained many injuries from his battle with Chen Shaofeng and had expended a lot of energy. So, while Du Ping¡¯ang might not be able to defeat him, they should be able to fight to a draw.
With that in mind, Du Ping¡¯ang also charged forward without fear, fists wide open, and they immediately shed.
Sure enough, although the Captain of the City Guard was in a higher realm, the previous battle had drained much of his strength and left him injured, preventing him from fighting at full power.
After a few exchanges, he was continuously suppressed by Du Ping¡¯ang and could only defend passively, which Du Ping¡¯ang hadn¡¯t expected.
Chen Tai, who was watching the fight, saw that they were fully engaged and smiled as he walked closer to the old man and Meng Er, step by step.
¡°Alright! Everyone in the way has left! It¡¯s time for us to get closer, little sister!¡±
Chen Tai was determined and still dared to plot against Meng Er at this moment.
Meng Er looked at him, then nced at Chen Shaofeng, who was in the middle of a battle, and angrily said, ¡°I won¡¯t let you seed, not even if I die!¡±
¡°It¡¯s not up to you,¡± Chen Tai dismissed her words entirely.
¡°Chen Tai! I won¡¯t let youy a finger on Meng Er.¡±
Just then, the old man stepped in front of Chen Tai, spreading his arms to block his way.
¡°You old fool, get lost! Otherwise, don¡¯t me me for being ruthless.¡±
Blocked again, Chen Tai lost all patience. He knew he needed to act quickly, as Chen Shaofeng and the others were nearby. If they saw what was happening and intervened, he¡¯d be in serious trouble.
¡°Unless I die, I won¡¯t let youy a finger on Meng Er.¡±
The old man stood firmly in front of Chen Tai, like a giant wall, blocking his way.
¡°Grandfather!¡± Meng Er cried out, deeply worried for him.
After all, the old man was quite aged. If Chen Tai decided to attack, the old man¡¯s body wouldn¡¯t withstand it.
That was why she was so anxious.
¡°Since you wish to die, don¡¯t me me.¡±
Chen Tai¡¯s gaze turned cold, and the true energy in his body surged as he struck directly at the old man¡¯s chest.
Bang!
The palm strikended on the old man¡¯s left chest, instantly breaking several ribs.
An intense pain coursed through the old man¡¯s body, but he remained resolute and silent.
Although he made no sound, blood began to seep from his mouth.
The moment Meng Er saw the old man¡¯s condition, she was immediately rmed. She hurriedly ran over, eximing, ¡°Grandfather! Grandpa! How are you? Grandpa! Don¡¯t scare me!¡±
Holding the old man in his arms, he began to cry loudly.
Despite being on the brink of death, the old man maintained a smile.
He smiled and said to Meng Er, ¡°Meng Er! Grandfather won¡¯t let him seed. You must trust Grandfather.¡±
As he spoke, the old man tried to stand, but given his condition, it was impossible.
Just as he attempted to stand, he fell again.
¡°No! Grandpa! I can¡¯t let anything happen to you. Grandfather, don¡¯t go, I¡¯ll go back with him, I don¡¯t want anything to happen to you,¡± Meng Er cried.
Chen Tai never expected that his single palm strike would be able to kill the old man, which made him furious.
This time, he used all his strength.
Seeing this, Meng Er immediately stood in front of the old man to shield him.
But the old man couldn¡¯t allow Meng Er to take that palm strike.
He knew clearly that if Meng Er was hit by this palm, the only oue would be death. This was not something he could bear.
Therefore, before the palmnded, he pushed Meng Er away.
Thud!
Chen Tai struck the old man again, this time hitting the center of his chest, shattering all the ribs in his chest.
Gush!
A mouthful of fresh blood spurted from the old man¡¯s mouth. His body kept retreating, but he still shielded Meng Er behind him, preventing her from sustaining a series of injuries.
¡°Grandfather!¡±
Meng Er shouted, tears welling up in her eyes.
¡°Grandfather! Nothing must happen to you, nothing must happen to you!¡±
Meng Er screamed as she rushed over and embraced the old man tightly.
Meng Er¡¯s voice was so loud that even Chen Shaofeng and Du Ping¡¯ang, who were fighting, could hear her clearly.
When Chen Shaofeng looked over, he saw Meng Er hugging the old man¡¯s body and crying non-stop. The moment he saw this, he knew something was terribly wrong.
Furious mes erupted from his body immediately.
Anger filled his eyes, and an overwhelming killing intent emanated from him.
In that moment, he did not hold back, as an extremely tyrannical killing intent continuously surged. Under the influence of the Domineering Qi, his true strength became even more ferocious.
¡°Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts!¡±
Boom!
Chen Shaofeng clenched his fists tightly, a dominating killing intent emanating from his body.
A powerful energy continually formed between his fists, and then, under the man¡¯s astonished gaze, Chen Shaofeng¡¯s body transformed into a streak of flowing light, charging forward.
When the man regained his senses, he realized that his chest had been unknowingly prated by Chen Shaofeng¡¯s fist, and the energy on the fist was constantly destroying his body.
Bang!
The man copsed to the ground, unable to rise. He died with an expression of unwillingness on his face.
After killing the man, Chen Shaofeng did not stop. Using Cloud Walk, he swiftly moved towards Meng Er and the others like a shadow.
¡°Old man! How are you?¡±
Chen Shaofeng hurriedly took out a healing pill from his storage bag and ced it into the old man¡¯s mouth.
This was something his father, Chen Liuyuan, had given him before he left for this ce, and up until now, he had never used it.
The old man shook his head at Chen Shaofeng: ¡°It¡¯s useless! Young master! Don¡¯t waste your pill, my internal organs arepletely shattered, there¡¯s no saving me.¡±
Hearing the old man¡¯s words, Chen Shaofeng became silent. Even if they were warriors, with their internal organs broken, they would not survive.
Hence, he felt deep respect for this old man, Chen Shaofeng.
¡°NO! No! Grandpa! Take your medicine quickly.¡±
Meng Er could not believe all of this was real and kept shaking her head.
The old man smiled at Meng Er: ¡°Meng Er! From now on, without your grandfather by your side, you must learn to be strong.¡±
Then, he looked at Chen Shaofeng and said, ¡°Young Master! Promise me! You must take good care of Meng Er for me!¡±
¡°Don¡¯t worry! Even if you hadn¡¯t asked, I would have done it,¡± Chen Shaofeng nodded.
Only then did the old man nod in satisfaction. After that, he never spoke again, closing his eyes forever.
At that moment, Chen Shaofeng realized how fragile life truly was, and that there was no one else like the old man left.
He did not cry, not because he was stubborn, but because he knew the old man didn¡¯t want that; he just wanted Meng Er to be safe.
Chapter 19
C19 ¨C Go to Hell with All of You
Meng Er cried! She was crying very loudly and feeling very sad.
Every one of her cries made Chen Shaofeng¡¯s heart sink.
At the same time, he also knew that he had no reason to stop Meng Er from crying for her grandfather.
At this moment, there was only boundless rage in his heart. The mes of fury continued to burn in his body, as if his entire body was burning.
His eyes were cold and filled with killing intent. Only when he looked at Meng Er did he reveal a hint of gentleness.
¡°Take good care of Meng Er! I don¡¯t want to see anything happen to Meng Er again. ¡± Chen Shaofeng said to Du Ping¡¯ang who was beside him, expressionless.
¡°Big brother! I know! I will take good care of her. ¡°
Du Ping¡¯ang was also furious, if it was not because he was not strong, he would also want to go with Chen Shaofeng to kill people.
Chen Shaofeng nodded his head, without saying a word, he turned and faced Chen Tai¡¯s direction.
Then a cold voice rang in his ear.
¡°Die!¡± You will all die! Even if you have to apany the elders in death, especially you, Chen Tai! ¡°
At this time, Chen Shaofeng¡¯s gaze was ice-cold to the extreme. Killing intent constantly emitted from his body and a wave of Domineering Qi s that were apanied by killing intent unceasingly appeared.
¡°Wait!¡± My father is the mayor! If you kill me, he won¡¯t let you go. ¡°
Chen Tai was afraid, he was truly afraid, this was the first time he felt such a strong killing intent.
He did not want to die. He really did not want to die.
He was only twenty years old, and there was still a lot of time left for him to live. He didn¡¯t want to die here, so he made his final struggle.
However, was this struggle of his useful?
It was obviously useless.
¡°You won¡¯t let me off? Haha! So what? If I, Chen Shaofeng, want to kill someone, no one can escape, and you too. ¡°
After saying that, the True Qi in Chen Shaofeng¡¯s body started to circte crazily, an extremely tyrannical Spirit Qi was being emitted continuously, he picked up the de in the man¡¯s hand, and started to pour all of his True Qi into it.
¡°Go to hell!¡±
¡°Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts!¡±
An overbearing scarlet de light shot out from the de, the de light shot out in all directions, the Domineering Qi caused the de to turn into a true tyrannical de.
An iparably domineering and extremely murderous saber.
The Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts did not have a fixed attack to begin with, but for some reason, Chen Shaofeng felt that the moment he picked up therge de, the aura on his body rose to the peak.
An iparably tyrannical energy spread out from therge de, and an intense de light suddenly appeared, giving off a dazzling light.
Under the urge of anger, Chen Shaofeng shed out.
Immediately, a boundless de qi released from the de, the de qi transformed into many lines of substantial light aura that rushed at Chen Tai.
Seeing this, Chen Tai immediately pulled a person beside him to block in front of him. He wanted to use the other person¡¯s body to block Chen Shaofeng¡¯s attack.
However, he had never expected that the de aura would be able to split the person in front of him into two halves.
Just as Chen Tai was feelingcent, he actually felt a huge pain transmitted from his body. When he came back to his senses, the huge pain became even more intense.
Puff!
Arge mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out from Chen Tai¡¯s mouth. He looked at Chen Shaofeng who was in front of him with a face of shock, and said in a daze: ¡°How is that possible? Why is this happening? ¡°
¡°Do you think that you can stop my Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts by yourself?¡±
Chen Shaofeng looked at him expressionlessly, and said coldly: ¡°Die!¡±
The moment he finished speaking, a burst of de aura immediately shot out from Chen Tai¡¯s back. The current Chen Tai looked as though his body had been prated, and from the front, he could actually see the scene behind him clearly.
Following which, his body heavily fell on the ground, looking like he was about to die.
However, so what if he didn¡¯t die?
Could it be that he was only allowed to kill others, and others couldn¡¯t kill him?
¡°Chen Shaofeng! You dare to kill Young Master Tai! You¡¯re dead meat! ¡°You are definitely going to die. The Mayor dotes on his only son and he will definitely take revenge for Young Master Tai.¡±
Captain of City Guard also didn¡¯t think that the situation would turn out like this. He even more so, didn¡¯t think that Chen Tai would actually die in front of him.
No matter what reason he had, he knew that it was all over for him.
Therefore, he did not care about Chen Shaofeng anymore, and quickly ran out of the city gate. He knew that as long as he escaped from the Huang City, he would have a chance of survival.
Chen Shaofeng also knew that this Huang City was no longer a ce to stay for long. He had killed Chen Tai, so the City Lord of Huang City would soon find out that he was absolutely not his match with his current strength.
Thinking about this, he immediately said to Du Ping¡¯ang: ¡°Safe! Bring this old man¡¯s corpse along, and quickly leave Huang City. ¡°
¡°I got it!¡± ¡°Big brother!¡± Du Ping¡¯ang then walked in front of the old man¡¯s corpse and carried him on his back.
Someone said that after he died, his body wasn¡¯t as heavy as it was when he was alive. Before, Du Ping¡¯ang wasn¡¯t sure, but now, he was sure that what he said was true, at least when he carried the old man¡¯s body, it wasn¡¯t as heavy as before.
¡°Meng Er! ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡± Chen Shaofeng grabbed Meng Er¡¯s small hand and started to run out of the city gate.
Meng Er also knew the situation she was in right now. The old man¡¯s death had already made her extremely sad, so she definitely could not let anything happen to Chen Shaofeng and the others.
However, when Chen Shaofeng¡¯s right hand grabbed her, a bashful look emerged on her face. It was obvious that this was the first time a boy had held his hand.
The three of them were considered not slow, after killing Chen Tai, Chen Shaofeng and the rest left immediately.
However, the moment Chen Tai died, the lord of Huang City immediately found out about it and rushed over as well.
When Chen Shaofeng and the others just reached the city gate, the Lord of Huang City had already arrived at the ce where Chen Tai died.
Seeing his own son being prated by the sword aura, the Lord of Huang City immediately becamepletely furious.
He flew into a rage, ¡°How dare someone kill me, Tai¡¯er, in my territory! Very good! Where is the Captain of City Guard? ¡°
¡°Reporting to the City Lord!¡± Captain of City Guard has already fled on his own! ¡± A city guard answered carefully.
¡°He actually dared to run away?¡± The City Lord of Huang City narrowed his eyes.
Anyone who knew his personality would know that he was truly angry.
¡°I¡¯ll leave it to you!¡± the master of the Huang City expressionlessly said to a middle-aged man beside him.
¡°Mayor, don¡¯t worry!¡± This one will definitely help you bring his head over. ¡°
With that, the middle-aged man disappeared from beside the City Lord of Huang City, and directly headed out of the city gate.
Then, the master of Huang City said, ¡°I want the person who killed Tai¡¯er alive! Of course, if he can¡¯t live, then it doesn¡¯t matter if he dies.
¡°Mayor, don¡¯t worry!¡± If this person dares to kill Young Master Tai, I will definitely bring him to the City Lord for him to handle. ¡± The young martial artist said.
¡°Apart from the people who killed Tai¡¯er, the rest will be dealt with by you.¡± Huang City City Lord said.
¡°Yes sir!¡±
His name was Guo Ming, and he was originally a rapist. His strength was not weak, and had already reached the strength of the seventh level of Innate Mortal Martial.
In the end, it was the lord of Huang City who saved him, and in order to repay him for saving his life, he gave himself up to this ce.
But it was also at this time that he suffered. How could a rapist who did not pick flowers be able to bear such hardships?
He had heard before that the reason Chen Tai had a conflict with others was because of a little girl. Now that Chen Tai was dead, the killer who killed Chen Tai definitely had that little girl by his side.
As long as he could get rid of the others, wouldn¡¯t this little girl belong to him as well?
Thinking of this, Guo Mingughed out loud, he was extremely excited, and in his heart, he wanted to obtain the little girl.

Chapter 20 - He Had Been Overtaken
¡°Then, I thank the City Lord for his reward.¡±
After saying that, Guo Ming immediately left the Huang City, his face full of excitement as he chased after Chen Shaofeng and the rest.
In regards to this, the master of Huang City did not react at all. Although he was furious, the most important thing right now was to properly handle the corpse of his own son Chen Tai, and bury him the next day.
As for Chen Shaofeng and the others, he had already felt that they were dead.
Although Guo Ming wasn''t as strong as him, he, as a rapist, was first-rate in speed. It was impossible to catch him in the same realm.
Even if he wanted to catch Guo Ming, it would be extremely difficult.
Thus, he did not think that there would be much of an obstacle for him to deal with Chen Shaofeng and the others.
At this time, Chen Shaofeng and the others naturally did not know that the Lord of Huang City had already sent people to kill them. They had already arrived outside the city, found a ce to bury them in the hills beside them, and continued on their journey.
They also knew that if they continued to stay here, the three of them would definitely be overtaken by the City Lord''s Mansion''s people. At that time, not a single one of them would be able to survive.
After running frantically for the whole night, the three of them had not slept for a long time. Fortunately, they were still quite a distance away from Huang City, and looking at the two of them who were so tired, Chen Shaofeng said: ¡°You two should take a break! I believe that they won''t be able to catch up to us very soon. ¡°
¡°Big brother! You should get some rest! I can stand it. ¡°
Although he said that, but Du Ping''ang''s eyelids were already starting to move.
Seeing that, Chen Shaofengughed helplessly: ¡°You should still go rest! ¡°As long as we rest properly, we will have the strength to run. Right now, we may seem safe, but in reality, we aren''t safe at all, so if we can rest a bit longer, you should rest a bit more!¡±
Du Ping''ang said: ¡°Alright then!¡±
As for Meng Er, she had already fallen asleep in Chen Shaofeng''s embrace. Seeing Meng Er''s sleeping appearance, Chen Shaofeng felt for the first time that Meng Er was actually very beautiful, it was just that the clothes and dirt on her face hid her beauty.
However, this was also good. At the very least, there would be less trouble along the way.
¡°I want to rest!¡± It was very simple! Let me send you all to your eternal rest. ¡°
Not long after Du Ping''ang fell asleep, a voice came from not too far away.
After hearing the voice, Chen Shaofeng immediately stood up, only to see a figure quickly approaching from the front, in a few breaths'' time he would be next to them.
Du Ping''ang also heard the voice and immediately woke up, bing vignt.
Meng Er also woke up, but she was still a little hazy.
¡°Big Brother Shaofeng! What was going on? ¡°Who is it?¡±
Chen Shaofeng helped Meng Er up, and hid her behind him to protect herself.
¡°Haha!¡± Indeed, with a little beauty here, this Chen Tai truly has no life. He even missed out on such a beauty.
The person who came was none other than Guo Ming.
Hearing that, Chen Shaofeng immediately furrowed his brows, ¡°Who exactly are you?¡±
Guo Ming did not reply him. Instead, he looked at Chen Shaofeng and said, ¡°Innate Second Level of Mortal Martial Stage! That''s right! To have this kind of strength at your age is indeed very powerful, but, since you killed Chen Tai, you should be prepared to die. ¡°
Boom!
Guo Ming instantly released the aura of someone at the seventh level of the Innate Mortal Martial.
Sensing this iparably powerful aura, Chen Shaofeng''s pupils constricted, and he immediately shouted at Du Ping''ang: ¡°Safe! Hurry and bring Meng Er away! Hurry up! Otherwise it''ll be toote. ¡°
The current Chen Shaofeng could not defend against the seventh level of Innate Mortal Martial even if he used a single move.
The current Chen Shaofeng was only in the innate realm of Second Level of Mortal Martial Stage, he was five levels away from the seventh floor.
Even he himself was unable to resist it, let alone protect Meng Er and the others. Therefore, the first thing he did was to tell Du Ping''ang to bring Meng Er away.
Du Ping''ang was stunned at first, but when he felt the strong aura, he knew what he had to do. He immediately grabbed Meng Er''s hand and ran forward.
¡°Big brother Shaofeng!¡± Meng Er shouted anxiously.
¡°Remember! As long as we reach the Imperial City, you will be safe. Even if you escape, I will chase after you, so be at ease! Meng Er. ¡± Chen Shaofeng said.
After Meng Er heard this, she nodded her head and followed Du Ping''ang to escape.
Originally, Chen Shaofeng thought that Guo Ming would chase after him. However, he did not expect that Guo Ming did not seem to be in a hurry, with a calm andposed appearance, he stood there and stared at Chen Shaofeng as if everything was under his control.
¡°I know what you''re thinking, but you don''t have to worry, I''ll catch up to them very soon. I''ll take care of that little beauty for you, so you should die in peace!¡±
Guo Ming did not n to bring Chen Shaofeng back to the Huang City alive. That would be too troublesome.
It was only convenient for the dead, he thought.
Then, he moved. He didn''t use the mission''s martial skill, nor did he use the mission''s weapon.
Because of disdain, in the end, he still looked down on Chen Shaofeng who only had the First Martial Second Level of Mortal Martial Stage.
And this was exactly what Chen Shaofeng wanted.
When the opponentunched his attack, Chen Shaofeng''s inner strength started to circte silently.
When he released his attack, he made his move.
¡°Crimson me Fist!¡±
The Crimson me Fist erupted all around, the powerful me Fist head charged at Guo Ming with all his might, trying to break through everything.
When Guo Ming saw the Crimson me Fist, he could not help but exim, ¡°Mastered me Fist! Not a bad attack. ¡°
¡°But such an attack can''t hit me.¡±
With that, the fist Guo Ming punched out became a palm whichpletely enveloped Chen Shaofeng''s fist without even a hint of me showing.
Those iparably strong palms had tightly wrapped around Chen Shaofeng''s Crimson me Fist just like that, and he was actually unable to advance even an inch forward.
So powerful!
This was the first time Chen Shaofeng had felt a person''s power.
In the past, he knew that his father was extremely strong, but he had never personally experienced it. However, from the look of this Guo Ming, who was in front of him at the seventh level of the Innate Mortal Martial, he felt a sense of defeat.
With his current strength, he was far, far inferior to him.
¡°Do you only have that much power? If that is the case, I would be very disappointed. ¡°
Guo Ming didn''t seem to be in a hurry to kill him, even though he had controlled Chen Shaofeng''s Crimson me Fist.
However, he didn''t do so because he was confident in himself!
He let go of Chen Shaofeng, then said while looking at him calmly: ¡°With your current strength, you shouldn''t be able to kill a practitioner of the fourth level of Innate Mortal Martial. It''s better that you use your strongest technique!¡±
Chen Shaofeng had killed a practitioner at the fourth level of Innate Mortal Martial before he killed Chen Tai, so how could he not know?
After all, the warrior''s corpse was over there at that time.
¡°As you wish!¡±
¡°Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts!¡±
A tyrannical killing intent was released from his body, using the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts to release a powerful energy attack.
Hepressed the energy of the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts and formed a Energy Ball in his palm.
It was because he knew that with his current physical body, using his fists to attack would not be very powerful.
Even if he gave her the chance, she might as well unleash her current strongest attack. As long as this Energy Ball takes shape, even if it was at the seventh level of Innate Mortal Martial, it would still be fine.
When he felt the strong energy fluctuations from Chen Shaofeng''s Energy Ball, Guo Ming''s eyes instantly narrowed. His originally small eyes narrowed and turned into a slit.
He knew that once this Energy Ball took shape, with his current strength, he would definitely be injured. Thinking of this, he hesitated on whether he should take action or not.
Chapter 21
Chapter 21 - Mortal Martial Arts 3rd Level
Before he even had the chance to decide whether to attack, Chen Shaofeng had already taken action.
¡°Go!¡±
The Energy Ball shot out from his hand with incredible speed and enormous size, causing Guo Ming to be serious.
He finally understood how the martial practitioner at the fourth level of Innate Mortal Martial had died.
However, if that was all, it wouldn''t do much harm to him.
Ha!
Guo Ming shouted, intending to deflect the Energy Ball with this cry.
However, he had clearly underestimated the Energy Ball''s power and speed. Before he could react, it had already struck him.
Boom!
A huge explosion emanated from his body, and thick smoke enveloped him entirely.
Seeing this, Chen Shaofeng finally smiled. He knew that as long as his Energy Ball hit the target, the target would be hurt.
Of course, if his opponent was unharmed after such a powerful attack, he could only ept it as fate.
However, both he and his opponent had underestimated the power of the Energy Ball formed from the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts.
When the smoke cleared, Guo Ming''s miserable figure finally appeared before Chen Shaofeng.
Guo Ming had lost his previousposure, his face filled with disbelief and anger.
Considering the wounds on his body, it was clear that he had used all his strength to block the Energy Ball when it exploded.
¡°Stinking brat! I want you dead!¡±
He was furious! Completely enraged!
Ever since he started cultivating, aside from being pursued by experts, he had never been in such a sorry state.
Most importantly, the person who had put him in such a pathetic state was someone weaker than him. How could he not be angry?
The consequences of provoking a practitioner of the seventh level of Innate Mortal Martial were truly terrifying.
The aura he emitted at full strength was already enough to make Chen Shaofeng feel humiliated.
Chen Shaofeng''s body immediately sank, and he once again secretly activated the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts attack. Knowing its value to him, he naturally wouldn''t give up on it.
So, after releasing that attack, he had already begun his preparations. Now, it was about to take shape. Although its power was slightly diminished, he still believed it wouldn''t be ineffective.
Simultaneously, in his rage, Guo Ming charged at Chen Shaofeng with no regard for anything else, covering his fist with true power, and aimed his incredibly strong punch directly at Chen Shaofeng.
If this punchnded, even if Chen Shaofeng didn''t die, he would be severely crippled.
¡°Now is the time!¡±
The Energy Ball in Chen Shaofeng''s hands flew out again, striking straight towards Guo Ming.
Guo Ming never expected Chen Shaofeng to release the Energy Ball again so quickly.
This time, he didn''t dare to be careless and channeled his true strength frantically.
¡°Tiger Subduing Fist!¡±
The Tiger Subduing Fist unleashed a formidable force, aiming straight at the Energy Ball.
Under this fist, the Energy Ball immediately disintegrated, scattering its energy in all directions.
As expected, the seventh level of Innate Mortal Martial was formidable, and even an ordinary Tiger Subduing Fist possessed immense power.
Of course, after dispersing the Energy Ball, Guo Ming didn''t halt his attacks and charged straight at Chen Shaofeng.
Chen Shaofeng didn''t hesitate and immediately unleashed the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts once more. An overwhelmingly tyrannical aura filled his body, while the resulting energy extended towards his right fist.
It seemed like a long time, but it actually happened in an instant.
¡°Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts!¡±
Chen Shaofeng punched towards Guo Ming''s Tiger Subduing Fist.
¡°You really can''t learn! Do you think changing your attack can stop my Tiger Subduing Fist?¡±
Guo Ming''s expression grew cold as he shouted, ¡°Tiger Subduing Fist! Open!¡±
Chen Shaofeng''s body immediately sank, his feet digging into the ground, which began to crack.
Although it was just a little, it still showed the immense power he was enduring.
¡°No!¡± His strength is too overwhelming; I can''t match him.¡±
The moment he felt the other¡¯s fist, Chen Shaofeng realized they were not on the same level.
Even if he used his most powerful technique, the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, it wouldn''t make a difference. The intense force traveled through his fist inch by inch, making him think of giving up.
However, he knew that giving up meant death.
He couldn¡¯t die here; he had too much left to do and didn¡¯t want his life to end now.
Pressure! An unprecedented pressure.
Desire! He had an unprecedented longing for power.
Chen Shaofeng knew he couldn''t just sit and wait for death; he had to fight back and unleash the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts to its fullest.
At this point, he no longer cared about how much true energy he had left. Those concerns were irrelevant now.
What mattered now was finding a way to survive. This was the most crucial issue.
¡°It seems you have some skill. But how long can you sustain this kind of attack?¡±
With those words, Guo Ming''s right fist grew even stronger, causing Chen Shaofeng''s feet to sink further into the ground.
¡°No matter how long itsts, even if you want to kill me, I won¡¯t let you survive.¡±
Chen Shaofeng also intensified the power of his Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts.
However, no matter how much he strengthened it, he couldn''t counterattack. Guo Ming''s presence felt like a colossal mountain, pressing down on him until he could barely breathe.
¡°I must admit, your strength is indeed formidable. Among your generation, you¡¯re exceptionally powerful. However, despite this, only death awaits you.¡±
Guo Ming finally stopped holding back and continued to increase his attack power.
¡°Die!¡±
The Tiger Subduing Fist unleashed immense power, rushing towards Chen Shaofeng with destructive force.
Despite feeling the formidable Tiger Subduing Fist, Chen Shaofeng persisted in using it. However, no matter how he tried, it was futile against Guo Ming who was wielding it at full strength.
¡°Am I really going to die here?¡± Chen Shaofeng thought numbly.
Then, shaking his head, he dered, ¡°No! I can''t just die here. If I die, they won''t spare Meng Er and the others either.¡±
Thinking of Guo Ming''s longing gaze towards Meng Er, Chen Shaofeng''s expression turned serious.
He roared, ¡°I refuse to ept this fate! I''ve endured seven years of ridicule and scorn. I won''t die like this.¡±
Boom!
In that instant, Chen Shaofeng''s body trembled. He, who was originally at the second level of the Innate Mortal Martial Stage, directly advanced to the third level.
Although his strength only increased by one level, it underwent a significant transformation.
The Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts became instantly more potent.
His previously suppressed fist grew stronger, and his true energy was greatly replenished.
Though not fully recovered, the level-up made Chen Shaofeng significantly stronger in an instant.
This caused Guo Ming to immediately feel pressured.
¡°Pressure? How can I, Guo Ming, feel pressured? He''s just a brat at the third level of Innate Mortal Martial. Why should I be concerned about him?¡±
Thinking this, Guo Ming adjusted his stance and attacked again.
Chapter 22
C22 ¨C Martial Techniques Realm
¡°True Spirit Palm!¡±
Guo Ming withdrew his Tiger Subduing Fist. He knew that in this situation, his Tiger Subduing Fist would no longer be of much use to him.
Chen Shaofeng¡¯s original realm was able to resist his Tiger Subduing Fist, and after levelling up, he became even stronger, so he had no choice but to use his even more powerful True Spirit Palm.
The true spirit palm was a level five Yellow Level martial skill, one level higher than Chen Shaofeng¡¯s Crimson me Fist.
Furthermore, he himself was at the seventh level of Innate Mortal Martial, so he could use the true spirit palm to the fullest extent of its power.
Sure enough, when the true spirit palm appeared, the pressure on Chen Shaofeng multiplied, but how could he give up?
¡°Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts!¡±
His opponent¡¯s realm was too high, so he had no choice but to attack with all his might. Only then would he have a chance, otherwise, what awaited him would only be death.
If he could not even deal with such a ranker, what qualifications did he have to defeat Lee Junjie who had Innate Elemental Martial Stage?
The moment he thought of all these, Chen Shaofeng¡¯s attacks became even sharper, as a powerful and overbearing fist force was continuously released from his right fist.
It directly attacked the true spirit palm, as if it didn¡¯t even ce the palm in its eyes.
¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±
Seeing Chen Shaofeng¡¯s actions, Guo Ming immediatelyughed coldly.
He was extremely clear of the power of his own true spirit palm, and this Chen Shaofeng actually dared to directly attack him at such a level.
Bang!
The palm and fist struck each other, creating a huge wave of energy that spread out in all directions.
The air was constantly fluctuating, like ripples on the surface of a water surface.
¡°How is this possible?¡±
When Guo Ming felt Chen Shaofeng¡¯s attack, he waspletely shocked, and before he could even react, his body flew out.
He was actually sent flying by the fist formed by Chen Shaofeng¡¯s Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts just like that.
Not only him, even Chen Shaofeng did not expect that his own fist would actually be able to send his opponent flying.
¡°Could it be that my Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts has levelled up?¡±
Chen Shaofeng realized that the possibility of that happening was extremely high.
Ever since he had left the Nanshan County, he had experienced many battles and used the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts many times, especially this time, it was because of the formidable strength of the enemies, allowing him to frequently use the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts. This should not have been the case, as he believed that this would not have allowed him to better grasp the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, and thus, when his own realm advanced to the third level of the Innate Mortal Martial, the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts also advanced to therge sess stage.
He knew that most martial skills had different levels, and they were usually divided into initial stage, mastery stage, peak stage, and perfection stage.
It was said that there were levels above the great circle. However, to the best of his knowledge, there was no one who had a level above the great circle.
Even the strongest practitioner in the Great Tang Country had never been able to reach that level, so most people believed that the perfect stage was the limit of martial skills.
Of course, even reaching the greatplete realm was extremely difficult, especially for some powerful martial skills. It was no wonder that no one knew whether there were other realms above the greatplete realm or not.
The fact that Chen Shaofeng could upgrade his Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts to the Mastery Stage so quickly was something he did not expect. After all, the power of every single time he levelled up his martial arts technique would be multiplied.
Moreover, not everyone could raise a martial skill. That required a great amount ofprehension, as well as a great amount of understanding towards the martial skill itself.
This was a huge requirement for one¡¯s innate talent.
Chen Shaofeng was extremely talented since he was young. Although he did not know if he had reached the level of heaven defying, he truly deserved the title of being called a genius. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to reach the great circle of perfection in Qi Refining before the age of ten.
If it were not for Xiao Hai¡¯s absorption, his current realm would not be any lower than the so-called genius Lee Junjie.
Furthermore, in the same situation with the same resources, he was much stronger.
Therefore, for him to be able to raise his Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts to the Mastery Stage in such a short period of time, it was not unreasonable for his innate talent to do so.
He knew that his own Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts had levelled up, and this made Chen Shaofeng even more confident in himself.
He didn¡¯t know if he could defeat Guo Ming now, but at least he now had the qualifications to fight him. There was no way he would be able to dodge it.
¡°Not only did his cultivation realm advance, even his battle technique advanced as well? Your talent is indeed great. ¡°
It was clear that he was also considering whether or not to continue to kill him. If he was unable to kill him, he knew that once Chen Shaofeng grew up, the one who would die would definitely be him.
But if they let him go, even if the mayor lost his temper, he wouldn¡¯t be able to escape his fate of death.
After bncing for a while, he still nned to kill Chen Shaofeng. In the end, Chen Shaofeng had not grown yet.
¡°Go to hell!¡±
In the end, Guo Ming had only trained by himself and did not join any sort of mission. It was reasonable that he did not have any high level martial skills.
If it was before, Chen Shaofeng would still fear Guo Ming, but since his cultivation and martial skills had levelled up, he had be extremely confident, and did not believe that the current Guo Ming could defeat him.
¡°Crimson me Fist!¡±
The me wrapped around the right fist, and the Zhen Qi flowed out of his body endlessly, then he added it to his right fist.
At the same time, the Crimson me Fist threw out a punch. A powerful attack seemed to ignite the entire space, turning it into a fiery red color.
When Guo Ming saw that Chen Shaofeng had actually used a martial skill that was weaker than even his true spirit palm to deal with him, he was instantly enraged. He thought that Chen Shaofeng had underestimated him, and so, the attack in his hands became even stronger.
¡°Stinking brat!¡± How dare you underestimate me! I will make you pay the price of underestimating me. ¡°
Under the effects of the Zhen Qi in his body, the Zhen Qi in his Zhen Qi palm increased to its maximum.
Wave after wave of aura was emitted from his palm.
This True Spirit Palm was indeed worthy of being a martial skill at the fifth level of Yellow Level. It was indeed extraordinary, just from the power it disyed at this moment, it was not something a mature True Spirit Palm could withstand.
However, it was only the true spirit palm of the Mastery Stage.
When knowing that his own martial skill would be raised along with his own cultivation level, Chen Shaofeng also wanted to test if his own Crimson me Fist had also levelled up along with him.
In the end, the level of the Crimson me Fist was very low. Although it had only just reached the Mastery Stage, it was still possible for it to level up.
Once he advanced, the power of the Crimson me Fist would multiply, even against such a strong opponent like Guo Ming, he would still be able to put up a fight.
This was also the reason why he used the Crimson me Fist against the enemy.
Sure enough, the Crimson me Fist did not disappoint him, the moment Chen Shaofeng touched it, he knew that his guess was not wrong, the Crimson me Fist had indeed levelled up.
If he did not advance, Chen Shaofeng would not believe that he would be able to withstand the attack of the opponent¡¯s true spirit palm with his own strength, and only use a martial skill at the fourth level of Yellow Level.
When the palm and fist made contact, Guo Ming revealed a look like he had seen a ghost. He continuously shook his head and said, ¡°No! Impossible! How can you rely on this Crimson me Fist to block my attack? This is absolutely impossible. ¡°
¡°Nothing is impossible! I have already raised the Crimson me Fist to the pinnacle level, so my power will immediately multiply. Why can¡¯t I block your attack? ¡°
¡°To tell you the truth, even if your cultivation realm is higher than mine by four levels, there is no longer any superiority left.¡±
¡°Die!¡±
He had shouted out thest three words, so he had no good impression of anyone with City Lord¡¯s Mansion.

Chapter 23
C23 ¨C Chen Guohao
The old man died because of them. He did not have the strength previously, but now that he had the strength, he would naturally not let Guo Ming go.
¡°Crimson me Fist!¡±
After Chen Shaofeng raised the Crimson me Fist to its peak level, the amount of true essence that disappeared with every use of the Crimson me Fist was also considered very small.
If it was before, when he was at the Mastery Stage, he would be able to punch two or three times, so even though he was using the Crimson me Fist nonstop, he still had a lot of power inside his body.
However, Guo Ming could not use his true spirit fist that often.
After chasing after Chen Shaofeng and the others for a long time and fighting with him for so long, a lot of true energy had been consumed from the inside of his body. If he used the true spirit palm too often, once his true energy was exhausted, even if his cultivation level was higher, it would be useless.
Thinking of this, Guo Ming became anxious, and at the same time, felt deep helplessness.
He thought that he would be absolutely certain this time, but he never thought that Chen Shaofeng was so abnormal. Breaking through on the spot, not only did he break through in cultivation, his martial arts also broke through.
The two of them had been fighting back and forth for a long time, yet they couldn¡¯t do anything to each other.
Just as Guo Ming was about to give up, a huge aura came from afar at an extremely fast speed.
The moment he sensed this aura, Guo Ming immediately knew it was the aura of the City Lord of Huang City, and his heart immediately became nervous.
Saying that the master of the Huang City was generous enough to forgive him was pure bullshit. He knew the character of the master of the Huang City, and at the same time, knew the important position that Chen Tai held in his heart.
It was as if Chen Shaofeng had pulled out his reverse scale when he killed Chen Tai, so how could he let him go so easily?
Chen Shaofeng¡¯s expression also started to be serious. Guo Ming had felt it, and he had naturally felt it too, but he did not need to carefully feel his cultivation realm, as he knew that he was definitely the master of Huang City. In the end, he was the only one with such strength in the Huang City.
Flee!
The current Chen Shaofeng only had one thought.
He could still fight to a standstill on the seventh floor of the Innate Mortal Martial after his strength and martial skills had advanced, but if it was a practitioner of Ninth Level of Innate Mortal Martial Stage or above, he had no chance of winning at all.
Since he couldn¡¯t win, there was only death if he stayed. Naturally, the first thing he thought of was escaping.
¡°Crimson me Fist!¡±
Chen Shaofeng struck out with his full strength once more, and instantly, the sky filled with mes engulfed the area in front of him.
Guo Ming tried his best to resist, and only after dispersing the mes formed by the Crimson me Fist, did he realise that Chen Shaofeng¡¯s had long since disappeared from this ce.
At this time, he had obviously thought about why Chen Shaofeng would run away if he wanted to escape the City Lord¡¯s pursuit.
In the end, no matter how heaven-defying he was, he still didn¡¯t have the power to fight back when facing an expert of Ninth Level of Innate Mortal Martial Stage.
Guo Ming guessed right, so he did not hesitate and immediately ran in the direction Chen Shaofeng had escaped in.
However, he had only taken a few steps when a figure appeared in front of him.
This person had a squarish face and was dressed in a blue embroidered robe. His expression was solemn and without guessing, one could already tell that he was Huang City City Master Chen Guohao.
¡°Where is he?¡± Chen Guohao said in a heavy voice.
¡°He just ran away! I was just about to go after him. ¡°
Guo Ming did not even dare to move. He could clearly feel the coldness and killing intent being emitted from Chen Guohao¡¯s body.
The coldness was directed at him, but the killing intent was directed straight at Chen Shaofeng.
¡°Trash!¡± He actually even killed a person with innate Second Level of Mortal Martial Stage for that long. ¡± Chen Guohao said coldly.
¡°City Lord!¡± Chen Shaofeng has already levelled up to the third level of Innate Mortal Martial. ¡± Guo Ming exined.
¡°It¡¯s just the third level of Innate Mortal Martial, you¡¯re still a piece of trash. For the sake of past rtionships, I won¡¯t bother about this matter with you. You don¡¯t need to care about the rest of the matters. ¡°
Chen Guohao¡¯s patience had already been worn out by Guo Ming, so he decided to take action himself.
It was impossible for him to not be angry at Guo Ming, but Guo Ming himself knew this very well. Thus, when Chen Guohao rushed out to chase after Chen Shaofeng, he helplessly sighed, and returned to the Huang City.
Furthermore, after Chen Shaofeng had escaped from Guo Ming¡¯s side, his expression had be even more tense.
Because he realized that Chen Guohao¡¯s Profound Spirit Qi was getting closer and closer to him. Even if his Cloud Walk had broken through to the Mastery Stage, his speed was still not his match.
When he arrived outside a valley that was deste of people, Chen Guohao¡¯s figure had already appeared in front of him.
¡°Stinking brat!¡± Let¡¯s see where you can escape to now! To dare kill my, Chen Guohao¡¯s, son, I will torture you to the point that you wish you were dead. ¡°
At this moment, Chen Guohao¡¯s voice appeared beside Chen Shaofeng¡¯s ears.
When Chen Shaofeng turned his head to look, he realised that Chen Guohao¡¯s square face was right in front of him, giving him a shock.
¡°Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts!¡±
When facing Chen Guohao, Chen Shaofeng would not hold back.
His right fist released a strong power under the effect of the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, the energy contained within was even more terrifying.
If it was Guo Ming in front of him right now, he would at least be injured by the punch.
Only, what he was facing right now was not what Guo Ming couldpare to, so naturally, this Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts would also be able to harm him in some way.
Boom!
Chen Shaofeng struck Chen Guohao¡¯s body, but when the smoke dissipated, stood there like nothing had happened. He did not even move, nor did he even try to block it.
¡°Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts! Not bad, but you can¡¯t use its power at all. Let me use it! ¡°
Chen Guohao actually took a fancy to Chen Shaofeng¡¯s Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, and actually wanted to snatch it, causing Chen Shaofeng¡¯s expression to darken.
He already knew that this Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts was extraordinary, perhaps it was not just at the seventh stage of the Yellow Level, it was even higher than that. With his current realm, he could already make him disy such power, so what if he himself was also of the Ninth Level of Innate Mortal Martial Stage?
Was it possible to say that this might was even stronger?
Of course, this was not the time for him to think about such things, because Chen Guohao had already made his move.
¡°Even if you don¡¯t hand it over, I still have a way to make you reveal the cultivation method of the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts.¡±
As he spoke, Chen Guohao directly grabbed toward Chen Shaofeng¡¯s body. He actually wanted to grab onto, and force him to reveal the cultivation method of the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, then slowly kill him off, how could Chen Shaofeng possibly let him seed?
¡°If you want the cultivation method of the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, dream on.¡±
Without much consideration, the attack just now had already made him realize how huge the gap was between him and Chen Guohao.
Therefore, he had no intentions of fighting him head-on. The Cloud Walk appeared once again and slipped away into the valley.
Then, without even turning his head around, he continued to run deeper into the cave. He was running very fast.
Chen Guohao never thought that Chen Shaofeng would run so fast, he was already toote to chase after him.
¡°Bastard!¡± It¡¯s a pity about this Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, if I could had it, my power would have definitely increased by a few steps. ¡°
Chen Guohao felt extremely vexed. He never thought that Chen Shaofeng would disregard everything and rush towards the valley.
This valley was a notorious forbidden ground within their Great Tang Country. In the entirety of their Great Tang Country, not a single person dared to enter this forbidden ground, because once someone entered it, they would die within a day.
The next day the bodies would be found outside the valley.
Furthermore, the corpses were extremely horrifying, as if they had been bitten by many Demonic Beast.
From the Innate Mortal Martial to the warriors of the First Sky of the Spirit Realm, as long as they entered, none of them would be alive, so gradually, no one dared to enter this ce anymore.
He, Chen Guohao, was only a warrior of Ninth Level of Innate Mortal Martial Stage.
Furthermore, he clearly knew that under the circumstances where Chen Shaofeng was definitely going to die, it would be a little too stupid to go in again!
Although he was extremely unwilling, but after knowing that Chen Shaofeng was dead for sure, Chen Guohao finally left.

Chapter 24
C24 ¨C Within the Forbidden Area
Within the forbidden area of the valley.
In order to get rid of Chen Guohao, Chen Shaofeng kept running towards the valley. He was tired of it so he stopped.
He looked behind him, and realized that Chen Guohao was not there at all. Furthermore, he could not even sense Chen Guohao¡¯s Qi anymore.
What was going on?
Chen Shaofeng was confused, only then did he look at his surroundings, the surroundings were a forest, just that, the nts in the forest made him suspicious.
Because the nts and trees here were things he had never seen before.
¡°What is this ce?¡± Chen Shaofeng muttered to himself.
Suddenly, the surrounding grass moved slightly. Out of curiosity, he immediately walked over, wanting to see what it was.
However, before he could get close, a loud roar came from the grass, and at the same time, a huge wolf head stuck its head out.
Roar!
Seeing that an outsider had barged in, the Giant Wolf immediately roared out, wanting to use this chance to push Chen Shaofeng back.
This Giant Wolf was indeed very powerful, and just its roar alone brought Chen Shaofeng a lot of pressure.
Furthermore, from the aura it gave off, one could tell that the Giant Wolf in front of him was actually a level two Demonic Beast.
This was a Demonic Beast that was equivalent to a human warrior¡¯s Innate Mortal Martial level 5 and above. Even the weakest of them possessed the strength of the fifth level of the Innate Mortal Martial, not to mention that this Giant Wolf before their eyes did not seem to be weak at all.
So no matter what was said, this Giant Wolf at least had the strength of the sixth level of Innate Mortal Martial or higher.
Chen Shaofeng could not help butugh bitterly because he did not expect that he woulde to the wolf¡¯sir after just escaping from the tiger¡¯s den.
But now, there was no time for him to think about it further. The Giant Wolf¡¯s bloody mouth had already appeared in front of him as it bit towards him.
The Cloud Walk was activated, and instantly dodged the Giant Wolf¡¯s bloody mouth, at the same time, the Crimson me Fist directly attacked, its powerful attack directly striking towards the Giant Wolf¡¯s head.
Bang!
The Giant Wolf cried out even louder from the pain.
Demonic Beast s were powerful, and their bodies were even stronger. Normal Demonic Beast s would use their bodies as weapons, but this made the stinging Giant Wolf s even more furious.
Its speed was extremely fast, even faster than¡¯s Cloud Walk. It was worthy of being called a second stage Demonic Beast.
¡°This is bad!¡±
Chen Shaofeng wanted to dodge but discovered that the Giant Wolf¡¯s tail was sweeping towards him, directly sweeping towards his body.
The Giant Wolf did not seem to know what stopping was. After its attack seeded, it once again violently bit down. At the same time, a ray of light appeared in its mouth, which disappeared in a sh.
At this moment, itsrge mouth bit down.
Chen Shaofeng instinctively used his own arm to stop it, but it was actually bitten by him.
¡°A tiger doesn¡¯t show its might! Do you think I¡¯m a sick cat? ¡°
¡°Crimson me Fist!¡±
Chen Shaofeng immediately jumped away from the Giant Wolf and continued to throw out Crimson me Fist. Every time he punched, it wouldnd on the Giant Wolf¡¯s body.
The Giant Wolf did not know how to dodge, but it could be because it had yet to gain consciousness!
Otherwise, it was impossible for it to only know how to attack and not dodge.
Every time the Crimson me Fist hit its body, the Giant Wolf¡¯s Qi would weaken a bit, but that was only it.
If not for the fact that its Crimson me Fist had already been raised to its peak level, a Crimson me Fist of the fourth stage of Yellow Level basically wouldn¡¯t be of much use to it.
To kill it, only the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts would be able to do so. There was already no longer any time for him to think.
The Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts was immediately released, this time he did not use his fist to attack, but used his energy to attack, he discovered that his energy attack was more effective against the Giant Wolf.
Boom boom!
The attack that was produced by the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts¡¯s energy directly exploded onto the Giant Wolf.
Flesh and blood sttered. Following which, a nucleus shape object rolled down from the Giant Wolf¡¯s body.
Demon Core!
Chen Shaofeng was immediately overjoyed. He would never have thought that his luck was so good.
And this time, he had actually obtained a second stage Demon Core.
Although there was only a difference of one stage between a second stage Demon Core and a first stage Demon Core, the value of this stage Demon Core had increased exponentially.
After directly putting away the Demon Core, he put the corpse of the Giant Wolf into the storage bag s. Level Two Demonic Beast¡¯s flesh was also extremely delicious meat, so he naturally would not let them go.
After all this was done, he continued forward.
There was nothing he could do about it. He realized that he was surrounded by trees and nts and did not know where he was. After the battle, he did not know where he was heading to, so he waspletely confused.
¡°Looks like I can only gamble on luck and hope to get out safely.¡±
Chen Shaofengughed bitterly, then chose a direction and walked over.
His luck was indeed very good. After walking only a few steps, he met a Demonic Beast, fortunately, this Demonic Beast was not very strong, although it was also a level two Demonic Beast, its strength was still weaker than the one before. After a few rounds, it was still killed by the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts.
As for why he did not use the Crimson me Fist, it was naturally because the attack power of the Crimson me Fist was not sufficient. In the end, it was all because his current realm was too low.
He spent the entire day in a battle of attrition.
However, there were certain benefits as well. At the very least, he had obtained quite a few second stage Demon Core.
Only, they did not take all of their bodies. In the end, some of the Demonic Beast did not even have much meat, so even if they took it, they could not eat it.
After the night fell, Chen Shaofeng found some dried wood and started a fire, then he took out the body of the Giant Wolf and roasted it.
He didn¡¯t know if it was because of the fire, but no Demonic Beast approached him at night.
Under the fire¡¯s barbecue, the Giant Wolf¡¯s flesh released a faint smell of meat. After seeing that it was more or less done, Chen Shaofeng took out some spices he brought from home and sprinkled them on the Giant Wolf¡¯s meat.
Instantly, a fragrant smell filled the air, and he picked up one of the Giant Wolf s¡¯ thigh and started to gnaw on it.
It had to be said that the quality of the Demonic Beast¡¯s meat was extremely delicious. It was no wonder that in some hotels, this kind of Demonic Beast meat was very expensive.
The Demonic Beast¡¯s energy was all inside the Demon Core, but there was still some remaining on the flesh, so eating the Demonic Beast¡¯s meat, its own body had huge benefits for a warrior¡¯s cultivation, so it was reasonable for it to be expensive.
Now that Chen Shaofeng had eaten a piece of Giant Wolf meat and others knew about it, they didn¡¯t know how to be envious or jealous!
In the end, the meat of Level Two Demonic Beast was not something that ordinary people could eat.

Chapter 25
C25 ¨C Little Guy
Chen Shaofeng¡¯s taste was not very good, after eating a few pieces of meat he could not eat anymore, so he nned to take these meat with him as part of the storage bag, and roast it when he was hungry.
Only, just as he was about to put all of these meat into the storage bag, a petite ck shadow ran out from the nearby grass. Before Chen Shaofeng could react, the ck figure appeared in his arms, and instantly bit the Giant Wolf meat in Chen Shaofeng¡¯s hands, with a ¡°puchi pui¡± sound. Not longter, arge chunk of the Giant Wolf meat was eaten by it into its stomach.
After it finished eating, it raised its little head and looked at Chen Shaofeng, drool still flowing from its mouth.
Chen Shaofeng urged with a smile. Knowing that it wanted to eat the remaining Giant Wolf meat, he took out all of the Giant Wolf meat that he had roasted and ced it in front of the little fellow.
The little guy did not hold back and started to gnaw on the meat.
Not long after, the entire Giant Wolf was eaten by it.
Looking at this scene, the only thing that remained of Chen Shaofeng was a dazed expression. He never thought that the little fellow in front of him would actually have such a big appetite, eating so much Demonic Beast meat.
Wasn¡¯t it afraid of it copsing?
It was clear that he was thinking too much. After the little fellow finished eating the meat, it revealed an extremely satisfied expression, and then it actually fell asleep in front of Chen Shaofeng.
Chen Shaofeng couldn¡¯t help butugh. This was the first time he could clearly see the little guy¡¯s appearance.
The little guy¡¯s appearance was simr to a puppy. He was very small and cute. His two big eyes were as ck as ink.
As for its strength, Chen Shaofeng waspletely unable to tell, and did not know what level of Demonic Beast it was.
But since it could live so well here, it shouldn¡¯t be too weak.
After seeing the little guy fall asleep, Chen Shaofeng also did the same as heid down beside the little guy and fell asleep.
Originally, he did not dare to sleep too deeply. After all, this ce was filled with Demonic Beast. What if the Demonic Beast attack him while he was sleeping?
Therefore, although he was sleeping, he kept a clear mind and was in a half-asleep state.
However, for some reason, even after sleeping for several hours, he still did not see any Demonic Beaste in, let alone attack them.
Unknowingly, he had also fallen asleep.
The entire night passed in silence.
The next day, after Chen Shaofeng woke up, he saw a huge eye staring at him. He was shocked, and immediately wanted to attack, but when he saw that the beast was a little fellow, he rxed.
¡°Little guy!¡± Don¡¯t scare me! You don¡¯t know that people scare people to death. ¡± Chen Shaofeng purposely pretended to be angry.
The little guy continuously called out, as if saying, I¡¯m not a human, I¡¯m a Demonic Beast, how could I scare someone to death?
¡°It seems that you understand what I¡¯m saying. I never would have thought that a little guy like you would actually already have intelligence.¡±
Seeing that the little guy could actually understand his words, Chen Shaofeng was also extremely curious.
The little fellow stood proudly as it cried out a few times, as if to say, Of course!
Just then, the little guy¡¯s stomach started to growl. It was obvious that he was hungry, which made Chen Shaofeng speechless.
He never thought that the little guy would not be full even after eating such a huge piece of Giant Wolfst night. He was so hungry that his stomach was growling in the morning.
Without any other choice, he could only start another fire, a barbecue.
Fortunately, he had killed quite a few Demonic Beast s previously. Otherwise, it would not be enough for the little fellow to eat.
After eating another Demonic Beast for breakfast, Chen Shaofeng realized that with this little fellow, he had to kill a few more Demonic Beast in order to survive. Thinking of this, he headed deeper into the forest, wanting to see if he could meet any Demonic Beast.
But very quickly, he was disappointed. After walking for a long distance, he still hadn¡¯t met any Demonic Beast.
Since he had no other choice, he could only collect the Demonic Beast that he failed to collect yesterday. Otherwise, he really wouldn¡¯t be able to feed this little fellow.
At noon, Chen Shaofeng roasted another Demonic Beast, and the little guy also ate it with relish. It seemed that whatever meat it ate, it would eat, and this was not bad.
After lunch, Chen Shaofeng continued to n to find a way out, but he was still unable to find a way out. Only then did he ask the little guy: ¡°Little guy! Do you know where the road to the outside of the valley is? I have to get out of here as soon as possible. ¡°
The little fellow first shook its head cutely, then bit on the corner of Chen Shaofeng¡¯s clothes and dragged him forward.
Chen Shaofeng thought that the little fellow was guiding him and was immediately overjoyed. He quickly followed it.
While walking, Chen Shaofeng discovered that he had actually already walked out of the forest. Just when he saw the situation outside the forest, he was stunned again.
The mountain range reached into the clouds, and there was no ce to walk around. There was no way out of this ce, which made him very discouraged.
Just when he wanted to return, the little guy bit the corner of his clothes again and forcefully dragged him forward.
The little head kept pointing at the cliff in front of him, as if asking him to go there.
Chen Shaofeng knew that the little guy wouldn¡¯t harm him, and yet he couldn¡¯t leave. He had to listen to the little guy¡¯s words, and going over to have a look was no big deal.
Thus, the human and beast arrived in front of the gigantic mountain wall. Before Chen Shaofeng could react, the little guy had actually directly walked towards the mountain wall.
¡°Be careful!¡±
Chen Shaofeng immediately reminded the little fellow. Even though they did not spend much time together, he was extremely fond of it, so he naturally did not want it to get injured.
But a magical scene appeared. The little guy didn¡¯t crash into the mountain wall as he had imagined, instead directly prating into the mountain wall. He now knew that this was a hidden cave, and ordinary people had no way of discovering him.
It was probably just a coincidence that the little fellow managed to find this ce!
Since he knew this was a hidden cave, he didn¡¯t linger and directly walked in.
After he entered the cliff, everything inside was presented in front of him.
This was an extremely ordinary cave, the cave was around a person¡¯s height and a person¡¯s width, so Chen Shaofeng could be said to be extremely spacious.
The cave was already lit up by the light, making it seem as if it was the outside world.
This should have been arranged by the person who carved this cave!
Traveling along this cave path, Chen Shaofeng took the time it took to burn an incense stick to burn before he finally entered the true cave.
There was a huge space here that was simr to the main hall, but also a bit different. This was because there were a few praying mats and a few stone cabs.
There were two rooms on either side of this space. Chen Shaofeng did not look in the other rooms, but followed the little fellow directly into the real cave.
And what he saw just now were only the outer parts. The true core was still at the stone door in the middle of the hall. However, it was obvious that the little guy could not open it.
The little guy used his head and pointed at the stone door, then pointed at Chen Shaofeng. The meaning was extremely clear, and wanted him to open the stone door.
Chen Shaofeng did not hesitate at all and used his hand to touch the stone door. Just as he was about to look for a mechanism, the stone door suddenly opened by itself, startling him.
The little guy saw that Chen Shaofeng had opened the stone door and was extremely happy, and immediately started dancing with joy.
Chen Shaofeng then entered the stone room.

Chapter 26
C26 ¨C Domineering Inheritance
The room was very normal. There was nothing inside except for a painting in the middle. There was an old man in the middle with the demeanor of a celestial being in it.
Chen Shaofeng treated the old man with great respect, not to mention the fact that this was probably the cave residence left behind by the old man.
With that, Chen Shaofeng knelt on the ground and bowed three times to the old man¡¯s portrait.
Only then did he stand up. Just as he was about to leave and go out to see what good stuff there was, an enormous aura was released from the portrait.
That aura was extremely huge, to the point where it was iparable. It was so huge that he did not even have the slightest intention of resisting. Furthermore, it was so big that if he made any unusual movements, the opponent could kill him with just a thought.
Strong! Unparalleled strength! This should not have happened in this world.
No matter how strong you are, you won¡¯t be able to erase my powerful will.
Boom!
Chen Shaofeng released his imposing aura as well, as he wanted to use this as a means to resist.
However, his momentum was quickly dispersed. He didn¡¯t even have the chance to fight back.
Chen Shaofeng then coldly asked, ¡°Who exactly are you?¡±
¡°Nice momentum!¡± It is already not bad to have such an aura on the third floor of the Innate Mortal Martial. ¡°
¡°It¡¯s just that there are very few Domineering Qi, but they have a lot of room for improvement.¡±
At this moment, a figure appeared in front of the portrait. If one looked carefully, they would see that it wasn¡¯t the person in the portrait, but who could it be?
Chen Shaofeng did not say anything, but the man said: ¡°Disciple! Your talent is not bad, and in the future you will definitely be something great. Today, I will pass on to you the cultivation technique of Tyrant¡¯s Path, the [Imperial World-Dominating Spell]. I hope you can cultivate it well. ¡°
¡°Wait!¡± Who do you call your disciple? ¡°
Chen Shaofeng was a little stunned, he did not know who this old man was calling disciple.
¡°Of course it¡¯s you! Do you think there¡¯s anyone else here besides you? ¡± The old man gently stroked his snow-white beard with his right hand as he smiled.
¡°You can eat whatever you want, but you can¡¯t say whatever you want. When did I be your disciple?¡±
Although Chen Shaofeng said that, he thought in his heart: Although bing your disciple is pretty good, I¡¯m not a casual person.
¡°Since you also think that bing my disciple is not bad, and you¡¯ve also gone through the ritual of taking me as your master, then this matter is settled.¡±
The old man seemed to know what Chen Shaofeng was thinking, and actually said this sentence.
Chen Shaofeng felt a chill in his heart, and thought: ¡°Could it be that he really knows what I¡¯m thinking?¡±
¡°Even if I know what you¡¯re thinking, I won¡¯t peep at you. Don¡¯t worry!¡± The old man said with a smile.
Chen Shaofeng immediately flew into a rage: You¡¯re not even peeping? How do you know I¡¯m thinking about these things if you don¡¯t peep? ¡°
The old man¡¯s face turned red and he quickly tried to defend himself, ¡°Unexpected! An ident! That was just an ident. ¡°
He knew that if those few old fellows knew what he was doing to steal a nce at his disciple, they would definitelyugh to death. Thus, he no longer intentionally paid attention to Chen Shaofeng¡¯s thoughts.
Chen Shaofeng thought about it and realized that the old man¡¯s face didn¡¯t reveal any signs of peeping. Only then did he feel at ease.
After calming himself down, Chen Shaofeng asked: ¡°Why did you say that I have already taken you as my master?¡±
¡°Did you just kowtow to my portrait three times?¡± the old man asked.
Chen Shaofeng nodded his head: ¡°Yes!¡±
¡°That¡¯s right! This is your ceremony of taking me as your disciple. Since the ceremony isplete, you are naturally my disciple. The old man said with a smile.
¡°So that¡¯s how it is!¡±
Only now did Chen Shaofeng know that the old man¡¯s painting had such a trick up his sleeve. He did not expect it at all.
¡°Alright!¡± Master will now send the¡¶ Imperial World-Dominating Spell¡· into your mind. You only need to think about the contents of the¡¶ Imperial World-Dominating Spell¡·. ¡°
As he spoke, a ray of light shot out from the old man¡¯s finger. After the ray of light entered Chen Shaofeng¡¯s head, it turned into a huge wave of information, immediately filling Chen Shaofeng¡¯s entire mind with it.
This made Chen Shaofeng¡¯s head sink, and his spirit seem extremely exhausted.
¡°Master! Why is this¡¶ Imperial World-Dominating Spell¡· only limited to the first two levels? ¡± Chen Shaofeng asked suspiciously.
Hearing his words, the old man exined: ¡°Currently your cultivation level is too low, when you advance to the Upper Sky Spiritual Martial Force, spiritual consciousness will be produced in your mind, and the capacity of your mind will also increase by several times, now that I have sealed thest fewyers of the < Imperial World-Dominating Spell > technique, when your cultivation has broken into the Upper Sky Spiritual Martial Force, you can naturally see everything.¡±
¡°So that¡¯s how it is!¡±
Chen Shaofeng nodded in understanding. In the end, it was still because his cultivation level was too low.
¡°Alright!¡± I have alsopleted my Immortal Soul mission, so I still need you to practice this [Imperial World-Dominating Spell] by yourself. When you reach mastery in this [Imperial World-Dominating Spell] one day, perhaps it will be the day when I meet you and your disciple. ¡°
After saying this, the old man¡¯s figure slowly became lighter.
¡°That¡¯s right! Cultivating requires you to walk one step at a time and not rely on any pill to be strong. People like that can only blossom for a short period of time, and their battle prowess is so weak that you have to remember, we are one of the top, and no one canpare to us, so we must dominate all forces thate along the way. Any kind of genius or demon, in front of me, is not worth looking at. ¡°
The old man¡¯s words immediately caused Chen Shaofeng¡¯s blood to boil. He never would have thought that the master that he unintentionally took as his master would be so awesome, to actually look down on such a monstrous genius, and truly rule over the entire world.
He had only just met Ba Yidao, but it was as if he could already see himself trampling all the geniuses of the younger generation beneath his feet with glee.
When he thought about it, Chen Shaofeng became excited, and the hot blood in his body also started to stir.
¡°Master really has not judged the wrong person!¡± ¡°You are indeed very suitable to practice my Tyrant Lord cultivation technique.¡±
At this time, the old man¡¯s figure had already be lighter and lighter. Chen Shaofeng shouted, ¡°Master!¡±
¡°Remember! Cultivate the Imperial World-Dominating Spell well and take care of the little fellow beside you, Master feels that it is not ordinary at all. ¡°
¡°Also, although I did not leave anything else, there is a piece of Blood Pool in this cave that was formed from a top-notch Blood of Demon Beasts, and it has a very good body refining effect. Cultivating the [Imperial World-Dominating Spell] requires me to cooperate with the Blood of Demon Beasts in order to cultivate it, so take this as a gift from me, I look forward to the day we meet again.¡±
After which, the old man¡¯s silhouette disappeared, as though he had never appeared.
However, the moment the old man disappeared, the portrait on the wall also disappeared.
However, Chen Shaofeng knew that it was true, and that it couldn¡¯t be more real. Whether it was the picture that disappeared from his eyes, or the Imperial World-Dominating Spell in his mind, everything proved that what happened just now was fake.
To be honest, the two had only seen each other for a short period of time, but Chen Shaofeng felt a little reluctant to part with them.
When he was at home, his father had been busy with his own matters, so he didn¡¯t have much time to worry about him. In the past, when his mother was here, he could still feel her affection.
Now that he had such a feeling, he felt extremely happy.

Chapter 27
C27 ¨C Blood Pool Training
But, he knew that his mother¡¯s family was located very, very far away. Given his current strength, he didn¡¯t even have the ability to walk out of the Great Tang Country nor have arger Dong Lai Domain, or any of the other major regions.
¡°Right now, we can only work hard to raise our strength. First, we have to defeat Lee Junjie after a year.¡±
Originally, he was not very confident in defeating Lee Junjie, but after receiving the Tyrant¡¯s Legacy, he knew that his chance hade. As long as he continued his cultivation, why would he not be able to defeat Lee Junjie?
Right now, his first mission was to cultivate his Blood Pool.
He believed that he would definitely be able to improve his strength by a level after the training of the Blood Pool. This filled his heart with motivation.
¡°Xiao Hei! ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡±
As the little guy¡¯s entire body was dark and unassuming, Chen Shaofeng very naturally named it the Xiao Hei. Even though the Xiao Hei was iparably against it, in the end, under the threat of the barbecue, it could only obediently concede.
The Xiao Hei wagged its tail, happily following Chen Shaofeng out.
¡°Just now Master said that the Blood Pool is inside the cave, so it should be inside. Why can¡¯t I find it after searching?¡±
Chen Shaofeng searched within the cave for a long time, but didn¡¯t even find a shadow of his Blood Pool.
¡°Could this Blood Pool really not be inside this cave?¡±
¡°That¡¯s impossible!¡± Previously, Master clearly said that he was inside the cave.
In the end, Chen Shaofeng helplessly arrived in front of the Xiao Hei, squatted on the ground, and said to the Xiao Hei: ¡°Xiao Hei! Aren¡¯t you a Demonic Beast? Smell with your dog nose, where does the scent of Blood of Demon Beasts se from? ¡°
Hearing Chen Shaofeng call it a dog, the Xiao Hei immediately shouted, looking as if it wanted to eat the human.
¡°Alright!¡± Alright! Master Xiao Hei! You are not a dog, I said it wrongly, I apologize to you, then use your nose to properly smell the Blood of Demon Beasts, okay? Chen Shaofeng said helplessly.
Only then did the Xiao Hei raise its head, looking extremely arrogant, Chen Shaofeng felt that it was funny.
But to be honest, this move was quite smart.
Not long after, the Xiao Hei began to shout loudly, and ran towards the right side of the cave. When they entered the stone room, the Xiao Hei directly rushed to the wall in front of them and shouted at the wall, and then shouted at Chen Shaofeng. It was obvious that they were telling him that there was the scent of a Blood of Demon Beasts inside.
¡°Inside the wall? Is there a mechanism here? ¡°
But thinking about it, he felt that something was wrong. When he entered the Inheritance Room, he did not trigger the quest mechanism?
Could it be that this ce was the same as well?
Chen Shaofeng stretched out his right hand again, and touched the stone wall in front of him.
As expected, when it sensed Chen Shaofeng¡¯s aura, the mountain wall immediately started trembling, and following that, a gigantic stone door directly extended from the bottom of the mountain all the way to the top of the stone room.
On the other side of the stone room, the situation was clear to see.
At the same time, a strong wave of energy undted out from the stone room, causing Chen Shaofeng¡¯s body to feel extremely ufortable.
Once Chen Shaofeng saw all of this, he knew that he had not found the wrong ce. This was indeed the ce where his Blood Pool was located.
When Chen Shaofeng walked into the stone room, a pool that was close to a few dozen meters wide appeared in front of him. In the middle of the pool, there was a pool of blood red liquid that was continuously flowing.
¡°Master said that the < Imperial World-Dominating Spell > needs to bebined with the cultivation of Blood of Demon Beasts. Looks like I can only jump in.¡±
Without thinking for long, Chen Shaofeng directly jumped in.
Right now, he was in a rush to increase his strength. Naturally, he would not let go of any opportunity to do so. Now that there was such a good opportunity, he naturally had to make full use of it.
No matter what dangery ahead, he was not afraid.
Plop!
After Chen Shaofeng stripped off his clothes, his naked body directly jumped into the Blood Pool.
Only, when his entire body entered the Blood Pool, an extremely tyrannical energy directly seeped into the surface of his body.
An intense pain suddenly spread to all of Chen Shaofeng¡¯s nerves, and that feeling of pain made him cry out loudly.
The miserable cries continued to echo out, after an unknown period of time, he was finally tired, and could no longer utter a sound. Gradually, he got used to the pain, and only then did he regain his senses, and when he remembered that he was training in the Imperial World-Dominating Spell, he started to circte the Imperial World-Dominating Spell¡¯s cultivation technique.
As he continuously circted the Qi Method, the pain on his body gradually became dull.
He didn¡¯t know if it was because this cultivation method already had such an effect.
In short, after he started circting the Imperial World-Dominating Spell, his condition became even better, and all the Blood of Demon Beasts that had emerged on the surface of his body was sucked into his body for refinement.
With every point he cultivated, Chen Shaofeng realized how unfathomable this < Imperial World-Dominating Spell > was. Although he did not deliberately train his body, under the effects of this technique, coupled with the help of the Demonic Beast, his physical body unknowingly improved. Two dayster, his physical body finally broke through and broke through to the next stage.
The first stage of the body was equivalent to the existence of Innate Stage.
Moreover, he himself was a warrior of the third level of Innate Mortal Martial. Adding his Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, he would be able to kill even a warrior of the seventh level of the Human realm.
Even if he faced Chen Guohao again, he would still have the strength to fight.
At least he wouldn¡¯t have to run away with his tail between his legs.
If he could raise his realm to the fourth level of Innate Mortal Martial, he would be able to defeat even experts of Ninth Level of Innate Mortal Martial Stage.
Thinking of this, Chen Shaofeng started to cultivate even more frantically.
He continued to absorb the Blood of Demon Beasts s within the Blood Pool. After absorbing, he would always have to endure the invasion from the berserk energy within the Blood of Demon Beasts.
Fortunately, the existence of the Imperial World-Dominating Spell made it easier for him to absorb Blood of Demon Beasts.
As he continuously trained, the number of Blood of Demon Beasts within his Blood Pool continued to decrease. By the time he finished cultivating for the tenth day, the Blood of Demon Beasts within his Blood Pool had basically disappeared, leaving behind only a small amount.
And this little bit was about to disappear.
At this moment, Chen Shaofeng¡¯s body suddenly shook. His realm had finally broken through again at this moment and sessfully advanced into the fourth level of Innate Mortal Martial.
However, what was inconceivable to him was that his physical body had only advanced to the middle stage of the first stage.
Even a pool of Blood of Demon Beasts dozens of meters wide was absorbed, but it had only advanced to the middle stage of the first stage, which made him extremely speechless. If this went on, who knows how many Blood of Demon Beasts s he would need to cultivate his body to the second stage!
But no matter what, increasing his strength was a good thing. Now, even if he faced Chen Guohao again, he did not need to be afraid.
Thinking of this, he knew it was time to leave this forbidden area.
Soon after, they walked out of the cave with one man and one beast. The moment they left the cave, the entire cave copsed and boulders tumbled down,pletely filling up the cave.
After that, Chen Shaofeng and the others followed in the opposite direction of the mountain range. Sure enough, they saw the situation outside not long after they got there, and this was the ce where he had entered a few days ago.
Thinking that he could finally leave the forbidden grounds, Chen Shaofeng became extremely happy.

Chapter 28
C28 ¨C City Lord¡¯s Mansion
Just as he was about to leave, the Xiao Hei bit on the corner of his clothes, looking reluctant to leave.
¡°Why don¡¯t youe with me? ¡°How about it?¡± Chen Shaofeng said with a smile.
In these past few days, he had already gotten used to having Xiao Hei by his side. If not for the Xiao Hei by his side, he really wasn¡¯t used to it.
Usually, it was not too heavy for him to carry on his shoulder. Most importantly, the Xiao Hei was very simr to a puppy, so no one would think that it was a Demonic Beast.
Upon hearing that Chen Shaofeng wanted to bring his out, the Xiao Hei immediately shouted out in joy. As it shouted, it danced about, its excited appearance was extremely adorable, extremely adorable.
alsoughed happily. Honestly speaking, if he left the Xiao Hei behind, he would not want to part with it, as god knows when he would meet it in the future. It was convenient for him anyway, if not, he could store it in his Mountain and Sea Space.
He could enter the Mountain and Sea Space, so other living beings should be able to too. At that time, he would be able to ask the of the Mountain and Sea Map.
However, Chen Shaofeng also knew that the Xiao Hei had always been inside the forbidden grounds and had never gone out to look around. If they could just directly send him into the Mountain and Sea Space, it would be too pitiful, so he nned to keep it with him until the future.
¡°Alright!¡± Then let¡¯s go! ¡°
However, Chen Shaofeng quickly stopped and said: ¡°There is one more thing! However, you cannot go in. Wait for me here, because the moment you go in, all those Demonic Beast will be gone. If you want to eat barbecue, just wait obediently for me. ¡°
That¡¯s right!
Chen Shaofeng re-entered the forbidden grounds just to hunt some Demonic Beast s. After they leave, it would be extremely difficult to eat more Demonic Beast meat.
Moreover, this way, he could get more Demon Core to sell, which would allow his expenses in the academy to be settled.
With Chen Shaofeng¡¯s current strength, killing these Demonic Beast was still not an easy task. After all, the Demonic Beast here were all of low rank, and the highest among them were only at the middle stage of the second stage.
With his current strength, he was more than enough to deal with them. Although he was unable to kill them, it was impossible for them to stop him even if they wanted to.
Then, Chen Shaofeng and the Xiao Hei left the forbidden grounds and appeared outside.
There were not many days left until the Great Tang Academy entrance exam, so in order to make haste, Chen Shaofeng rushed towards the Imperial City.
Only, if he wanted to go to the Imperial City, he would have to go through the Huang City. Now that he already had the strength, thinking about how he almost died in Chen Guohao¡¯s hands before, his anger started to rise, and it was time to settle the score with him.
No matter how he looked at it, Chen Guohao had only just entered the Ninth Level of Innate Mortal Martial Stage, and his aura was unstable. His real strength was merely equivalent to the perfect stage of the eighth level of the Innate realm, therefore it was still possible for Chen Shaofeng to defeat him with his current strength.
Furthermore, there were Xiao Hei here, what did he have to be afraid of?
As a result, Chen Shaofeng did not n to take a detour to avoid Huang City at all. Instead, he directly rushed toward Huang City, straight away.
The forbidden valley was originally very close to the Huang City.
Furthermore, with the great increase in Chen Shaofeng¡¯s strength, it had allowed him to use the Cloud Walk even more smoothly. After stepping out of the Cloud Walk for the first time, he could instantly move several tens of meters.
The distance between them seemed like it was only a few dozen meters, but in reality, it was already an incredible distance.
One must know that a normal martial artist would only be able to move half a meter per step, and a powerful martial artist would only be able to move one or two meters.
For Chen Shaofeng to be able to step out of the range of several meters, it was clear that his Cloud Walk was extremely powerful.
But no matter how powerful the Cloud Walk was, without the support of the user, it would be impossible to travel for a long time.
If Chen Shaofeng still did this, it could be imagined how much confidence he had in the true energy in his body.
By the time they rushed to the Huang City, they had only spent a tenth of the time at that time.
Then, a strange scene appeared on the streets of Huang City. A seventeen or eighteen year old youth was holding a small ck dog on his shoulder.
With regards to these people, Chen Shaofeng did not have the time to bother about them. The main purpose of his return to the Huang City was to seek Chen Guohao out and settle some old scores.
City Lord¡¯s Mansion was extremely conspicuous in the Huang City, because it was the most luxurious, and tallest building within the entire Huang City. Anyone who lived within the Huang City could live without knowing where their home was, but they definitely knew where the City Lord¡¯s Mansion was.
Therefore, it was an extremely easy task for Chen Shaofeng to find City Lord¡¯s Mansion.
¡°Chen Guohao! ¡°Come out!¡±
Once he arrived at the City Lord¡¯s Mansion gate, Chen Shaofeng roared out with all his might.
¡°Who dares to directly call out the City Lord¡¯s name at the City Lord¡¯s Mansion gate.
Chen Shaofeng¡¯s shout did not call Chen Guohao out, but called the rest of the people in the manor out. All of them had fiendish expressions, looking as though they wanted to slice Chen Shaofeng into a thousand pieces.
¡°Looks like you want to be a coward. Alright, let me collect some interest first!¡±
At this time, Chen Shaofeng finally set his gaze on the people in front of him. These people were all servants of the City Lord¡¯s Mansion, although they were all warriors, their strength was not strong, if they wanted to stop him in his advance, they would simply strike an egg against a rock, and bring about their own destruction.
¡°Stinking brat!¡± Who do you think you¡¯re talking to? He actually dares to call the Lord Prefect a cowardly turtle. It seems like if I don¡¯t show you a bit of power, you won¡¯t know what kind of ce this is. ¡°
With that, one of the servants of the Pce Chief immediately rushed out, without saying a word, he immediately attacked Chen Shaofeng.
In his opinion, no matter what, he was an expert of the Innate Mortal Martial realm, wouldn¡¯t it be easy for him to deal with a little kid like this?
Only, his thoughts were too naive. Before he could even reach out to Chen Shaofeng, he discovered that his body had actually started to fly backwards, and he could feel the paining from his chest. He finally knew why this Chen Shaofeng before him was able to call out the city master¡¯s name.
Bang!
This person was directly sent flying by Chen Shaofeng, and immediately fainted.
If he knocked a person out with a single kick, what kind of strength would he have? At least none of them could do it.
After all, that person from before had at least the strength of the fourth level of the Innate Mortal Martial. He didn¡¯t even have the chance to retaliate in this way, and if they dared to rush in just like that, this would be the only oue.
So at this moment, no one dared to move, and they began to be a little afraid. The expressions they looked at Chen Shaofeng with also started to flicker non-stop.
However, even if they did not move, Chen Shaofeng did not intend to let them go.
Since Chen Guohao himself was not willing toe out, then he might as well kill a few of his City Lord¡¯s Mansion¡¯s people and see if he could still hide within the City Lord¡¯s Mansion and note out.

Chapter 29
C29 ¨C Zhan Chen Guohao(1)
After that, Chen Shaofeng moved, his speed was extremely fast, in an instant he had entered into the midst of the group of people.
¡°This is bad!¡± ¡°He¡¯s nning to attack us. We have to work together.¡±
The one who spoke was the strongest out of them all, and was an expert of the fifth level of Innate Mortal Martial.
In terms of realm, Chen Shaofeng was a level lower than him. However, his current strength was not something that could be distinguished simply by using his realm.
Even though the opponent¡¯s cultivation realm was high, Chen Shaofeng had still heavily injured him at the first possible moment.
The other party had never thought that he would be seriously injured so soon. He was especially shocked in his heart.
¡°Everyone, be careful! His strength is very strong! ¡°
Although he was severely injured, he did notpletely lose all of his fighting strength, and so he quickly recuperated and suppressed his own injuries. He stood up once again and faced Chen Shaofeng.
¡°Everyone attack together! As the saying goes, having two fists and four hands is hard, I want to see how he will block our attacks. ¡°
With these people as the center, the others also released their own formidable attacks. Every single one of them exuded a formidable aura. It was very difficult for ordinary martial artists tobine their efforts to achieve a strength that was equal to two, or even more than two.
And these people in front of him had done it very well.
Although these people¡¯s realms were not high, and there were a few who had not even reached Chen Shaofeng¡¯s realm, the aura they emitted after joining hands shocked even Chen Shaofeng.
This kind of imposing manner could actually push someone to the seventh or eighth level of the Innate Mortal Martial; this was something he did not expect.
However, even if it was the seventh or eighth level of Innate Mortal Martial, they would still not be enough to face him, needless to say, the imposing manner they had released with theirbined strength.
Although his imposing manner was good, true strength still relied on the fighting strength of a martial artist.
No matter how strong his aura was, it was useless in battle.
For example, although Chen Shaofeng seemed to only have the cultivation of the fourth level of Innate Mortal Martial, his fighting strength was even greater than that of Ninth Level of Innate Mortal Martial Stage, and was even more powerful than them.
This was also why he was so confident in his ability to face Chen Guohao.
¡°Although the momentum of your alliance is not bad, but the battle relies onbat strength. You few are like scattered sand, do you really think that you can defeat me?¡±
Chen Shaofengughed coldly in disdain, as his overbearing aura was released.
After cultivating the¡¶ Imperial World-Dominating Spell¡·, Chen Shaofeng could be considered to have reached the level of being one of the strongest. His body naturally emitted an iparably tyrannical aura, and even if his realm was low, it would not affect the pressure that the Domineering Qi was suppressing others.
Sure enough, after feeling Chen Shaofeng¡¯s Domineering Qi, everyone present could only bitterly resist, how could they still have the qualifications to resist Chen Shaofeng?
¡°I shall show you the true difference between you two.¡±
¡°Crimson me Fist!¡±
The true energy within Chen Shaofeng¡¯s body started to surge unceasingly, and with the help of his true energy, a fiery red me immediately shot out from his right palm.
At the same time, his right hand formed into a fist. With absolute strength, he punched out towards the people in front of him.
The Crimson me Fist erupted all at once, and an iparably tyrannical will was released from the Crimson me Fist.
The Crimson me Fist¡¯s huge fist instantly appeared in front of him, and all of them defended. When their defenses were formed, the Crimson me Fist was already in front of them.
The huge attack charged straight at their defensive circle.
Very quickly, they were all shocked. They never would have thought that the defensive barrier that they were able to resist would not even be able to withstand a single punch from their opponent.
The might of the Crimson me Fist was also beyond their expectations. After the extremely strong attack collided with the barrier, it directly exploded.
Boom!
With a loud bang, as well as the power behind the explosion, the gate to the City Lord¡¯s Mansion directly copsed.
Just when everyone thought that the attack would be over, the gigantic head of the me Fist passed through the center of the explosion and attacked them.
Bang!
The power of the Crimson me Fist¡¯s punch was especially strong. They didn¡¯t even have the chance to resist before they were knocked to the ground by Chen Shaofeng and fainted.
Looking at the people in front of him who had fainted, Chen Shaofeng did not truly kill them.
He wasn¡¯t the type of person who was addicted to killing. Moreover, these people didn¡¯t have any grudges with him.
The reason they attacked him was all because they were from the City Lord¡¯s Mansion. In the end, it was all because of Chen Guohao.
Without Chen Guohao, these people were naturally not enemies either.
¡°Chen Shaofeng! You actually dare to appear, and even came to my City Lord¡¯s Mansion to cause trouble. If I, this city lord, don¡¯t kill you today, I will let down the people who were heavily injured by you. ¡°
Chen Guohao¡¯s body suddenly appeared on the rooftop.
¡°Chen Guohao! You finally appeared. If you want the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts in my hands, just say it, why do you have to do this? ¡± Chen Shaofeng mocked with a disdainful sneer.
Chen Guohao naturally could not admit within his Huang City that he coveted the other party¡¯s martial skills, which was why he wanted to kill him.
Therefore, when Chen Shaofeng said this, he quickly denied it: ¡°Don¡¯t speak nonsense here! This city lord is the city lord of Huang City, what martial skills are they that I can¡¯t obtain, would I covet your martial skills? What a joke! ¡°
¡°You know best!¡±
Chen Shaofeng did not refute his words, because there was no point in refuting him in such a way.
In the end, a martial artist still relied on their strength to speak. Only the weak would bber on.
Chen Guohao was furious, and said angrily: ¡°Chen Shaofeng! You escaped before, but this time, let¡¯s see where you can run to! ¡°
¡°Flee?¡± Why should I run? Don¡¯t think that just because you¡¯ve consolidated your strength at the early stage of Ninth Level of Innate Mortal Martial Stage that you¡¯re considered strong. If you think like this, your future achievements will be nothing more than this. ¡± Chen Shaofeng said indifferently.
Being lectured by someone so much older than him, Chen Guohao became even more furious.
In the end, he still couldn¡¯t take it anymore.
¡°Die!¡±
Chen Guohao unleashed an iparably powerful move the moment he attacked, as a green light shed from both of his arms.
¡°Green Dragon Palm!¡±
Ang!
Apanied by a dragon roar, a dragon shadow was sent out from his palm.
The dragon-headed shadow opened its fangs and ws as it pounced straight towards Chen Shaofeng.
From the power of the Azure Dragon Palm, it could be seen that the level of this Azure Dragon Palm was not low, and was at least at the fifth level of Yellow Level, or maybe even higher.
If it was before, without using the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, it would be impossible to fight him.
But now it was different, not to mention the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, even the most ordinary physical fists were iparably strong, if he used any martial skills, the power would be even stronger, so when he saw the Green Dragon Palm, he could only gently smile as the Crimson me Fist was unleashed at the same time.

C30 ¨C Zhan Chen Guohao(2)
¡°Crimson me Fist!¡±
The moment his voice sounded, Chen Guohao, who was in front of him, instantlyughed loudly. You actually want to use a martial skill like that to fight against my Azure Dragon Palm? Since you want to die so quickly, I¡¯ll grant your wish. ¡°
Therefore, Chen Guohao released the power of the Green Dragon Palm to its greatest, most powerful attack in an instant.
Chen Guohao, who was extremely confident in his own Azure Dragon Palm, simply did not put Chen Shaofeng¡¯s Crimson me Fist in his eyes at all. However, very quickly, he regretted it, because he had thought that the might of the Azure Dragon Palm he released would definitely be much greater than that of the Crimson me Fist.
However, when the two shed, Chen Guohao tragically discovered that the Azure Dragon Fist that he had released, had been smashed into pieces by the Crimson me Fist¡¯s attack as soon as it covered his face.
Boom!
The Crimson me Fist rushed down with tyrannical power.
Immediately, a huge explosion urred against the Azure Dragon Palm, and waves of energy waves spread out in all directions.
The might of the Green Dragon Palm had been destroyed, but the Crimson me Fist did not disappear just like that. Instead, it continued to attack Chen Guohao with its remaining power.
Chen Guohao also did not expect the Crimson me Fist to continue attacking him, and immediately dodged.
In the end, the Crimson me Fist¡¯s fistnded on the surrounding walls, and in an instant, the walls copsed.
Looking at this scene, Chen Guohao¡¯s eyes widened. Other than an expression of disbelief, there was only fear.
Right! It was fear!
One had to know that he had the strength of a Ninth Level of Innate Mortal Martial Stage. Even if he were to use the lowest level martial skill, its might was not something that an ordinary person couldpare with.
However, at this moment, he had been defeated by a very ordinary martial skill. Furthermore, he had been utterly defeated.
If he hadn¡¯t dodged so quickly, he would have been injured by now. This was something he had never expected.
How could he not be shocked that the word ¡°injured¡± would reappear in his mind after such a long period of time?
¡°Who the hell are you? Why is he so powerful? It has only been ten days, but he has already reached this level of strength. This is impossible. ¡± Chen Guohao suddenly asked.
He felt that Chen Shaofeng was hiding his strength.
However, he did not know that whether it was before or now, this was his true strength.
Even at the fourth level of the Innate Mortal Martial, he already possessed the fighting strength of a Ninth Level of Innate Mortal Martial Stage. Such a heaven-defying fighting strength had only appeared above some true monsters.
Only, since ancient times, there had never been a single person with Great Tang Country.
But now, such a person had appeared. What did this mean? Even without others telling him, he was very clear about it.
Such an enemy was extremely terrifying. Once he escaped, who knew what kind of strength he would reach the next time they met?
So no matter what, he had to kill Chen Shaofeng here today. Otherwise, the one who would die would be him.
Boom!
Chen Guohao¡¯s Ninth Level of Innate Mortal Martial Stagepletely exploded outwards and at the same time, a sword light shed from his body.
Unknowingly, a longsword had appeared in Chen Guohao¡¯s hand. On the longsword, flowing light circted, and it emitted a faint chill.
This was the first time Chen Guohao used his weapon.
This was the first time he had used a weapon since bing the city master of Huang City, and also the first time he had ever apanied him on this journey.
It was very rare for a practitioner of Ninth Level of Innate Mortal Martial Stage to possess such a weapon.
It could be seen that he was extremely fond of this sword. Not only was his aura even more powerful when wielding it, his battle power had also increased enormously in an instant.
¡°One sword!¡±
An extremely sharp Sword Qi was suddenly released from Chen Guohao¡¯s longsword, and a beam of Sword Qi flew towards Chen Shaofeng at an extremely fast speed.
Chen Shaofeng never thought that Chen Guohao would have such a killing move, he was immediately caught unprepared and took the attack head on.
The sword aura was indeed extremely powerful. If not for Chen Shaofeng¡¯s body having reached the first stage of the middle stage, even if he did not die, he would have been severely injured.
¡°How is this possible?¡±
Chen Guohao was so shocked that his eyeballs almost fell out.
One had to know that Qingcheng was one of his most deadly techniques. After he used it, no one would be able to survive.
Originally, when Chen Shaofeng was struck by the Sword Qi, he had thought that he could sessfully kill him.
How strong must one¡¯s physical body be to be able to do this?
Chen Guohao didn¡¯t know, because he had never seen someone like Chen Shaofeng before.
This was simply a humanoid monster!
¡°Since one sword attack isn¡¯t enough, then I will use two sword attacks!¡±
Chen Guohao simply did not n to give up, and could not give up either. Otherwise, death would continue to befall him.
¡°One sword!¡±
It was still that same sword qi, and the same speed. In the blink of an eye, it appeared in front of Chen Shaofeng.
Seeing this, Chen Shaofeng immediatelyughed coldly: ¡°You actually dare to use the same trick twice in front of me, you simply don¡¯t know your ce.¡±
¡°Break!¡±
Chen Shaofeng could not help but let out a loud shout as the Crimson me Fist appeared once again.
The Sword Qi disappeared in the air after being attacked by the powerful Crimson me Fist and mes.
With the sword qi broken, Chen Guohao, as the one who released it, suffered from the bacsh. A mouthful of blood sprayed out from his mouth.
In just a single exchange, Chen Guohao was already injured. Although it was not particrly serious, it still could not be underestimated.
Moreover, after being injured, his strength had been greatly reduced, but it was still not something that ordinary practitioners couldpare to. At the very least, it was still very easy for him to deal with an ordinary warrior of the eighth level of Innate Mortal Martial.
While he was sick, he had to take his life!
Chen Shaofeng¡¯s body instantly charged out and the Domineering Qi immediately flowed out. At the same time, the Crimson me Fist was once again unleashed, transforming into a fist that looked like it was on fire as it charged straight towards¡¯s body.
At this time, Chen Guohao simply could not react to the continuous attacks of the Crimson me Fist, and his body was being attacked again and again. This was also something he did not expect.
¡°Alright!¡± The game was over now! It¡¯s time for you to die! ¡°
An iparably overbearing aura continuously emitted from Chen Shaofeng¡¯s body. At the same time, the true energy within his body unceasingly surged, and faint rays of light unceasingly surfaced from the surface of his body.
¡°Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts!¡±
Finally, at this moment, Chen Shaofeng unleashed his strongest technique.
The Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts could be considered an absolute powerful martial skill that Chen Shaofeng had used aftering into contact with the Way of the Tyrant.
Even the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts from before could kill enemies beyond its cultivation level, let alone the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts that had inherited One Tyrant¡¯s Path. It was not something that Chen Guohao could defend against.
¡°NO!¡± This was impossible! Why did this happen? It shouldn¡¯t be like this! ¡°
Chen Guohao realized that the fist that had appeared in front of him at this moment, he could no longer muster any thoughts of resistance. The current him, was actually forcefully suppressed by that overbearing aura, it was extremely difficult for him to even move a single inch, let alone kill Chen Shaofeng.
¡°Go to hell!¡±
Chen Shaofeng roared out, the energy fists formed by the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts, struck down with absolute tyrannical force.
¡°No!¡±
Chen Guohao let out a painful wail, but no matter how much he wailed, he was unable to stop Chen Shaofeng¡¯s tyrannical killing fist.

Chapter 31
C31 ¨C Hidden Treasure Chamber
Boom!
His fist instantly descended, broke through Chen Guohao¡¯s body, and his body was instantly prated by the fist formed by the Crimson me Tyrant Killing Arts.
Fresh blood sttered on the ground. His eyes were wide open as blood gushed out from his mouth. Thebination of anger, unwillingness, and impossibility caused his expression to appear extremely terrified.
Bang!
After withdrawing his fist, Chen Guohao¡¯s body heavily smashed onto the ground, and he was unable to get up again.
When the people from City Lord¡¯s Mansion saw that their master had died, they immediately fell into chaos. Some of them even snatched some valuable things from their families and fled towards the city gate.
Some loyal people stayed at the City Lord¡¯s Mansion to clean up the mess.
As for Chen Shaofeng, he left the Huang City the moment Chen Guohao was killed.
He knew that ordinary Ninth Level of Innate Mortal Martial Stage Warriors were no match for him. As for the warriors at the first level of the Innate Spirit Martial Realm, he had never fought before, so he did not know. However, he believed that it should not be a problem for him to stay alive under the warriors at the first level of the Martial Arts.
There weren¡¯t many days left until Great Tang Academy entrance exam, so he had to hurry on his way with all his might.
However, he still had something to do before that.
¡°Xiao Hei! How about we go to the City Lord¡¯s Mansion s? This Chen Guohao has been a city lord for such a long time, this City Lord¡¯s Mansion must have a hidden treasure room. If you see anything good at that time, I¡¯ll give you some to eat. ¡± Chen Shaofeng smiled and said to the Xiao Hei on his shoulder.
Upon hearing that there was a good thing to eat, the Xiao Hei immediately became happy.
Chen Shaofengughed, then walked towards the City Lord¡¯s Mansion.
At this moment, more and more people had left the City Lord¡¯s Mansion, but there were still a few left. If he wanted to find the treasure room, he would need to find these people first.
Although the City Lord¡¯s Mansion was not very big, it was not small as well. There were several houses in a row, with the city lord¡¯s residence as the main house.
Chen Shaofeng believed that this treasure room should be in these houses, but he would need to look for it somewhere else.
¡°Halt.¡±
Just as a servant from the City Lord¡¯s Mansion was about to escape, Chen Shaofeng had him sent down.
¡°Large¡ Lord! What do you want? ¡± The middle-aged man trembled as he asked.
¡°Tell me! Where is the treasure room of the City Lord¡¯s Mansion? ¡± Chen Shaofeng said in a heavy voice.
This, I don¡¯t know either, but I heard from other servants that in the past, the Mayor always liked to stay in his room for the entire day. Before, we all thought that the Mayor was sleeping or training, but now it seems that that he might be in the treasure room, otherwise, the Mayor wouldn¡¯t have stayed there for such a long time. The middle-aged man guessed.
Chen Shaofeng thought that maybe what the middle aged man said was true, there was a high chance that the treasure room was right there.
He then asked, ¡°Where is the City Lord¡¯s room?¡±
¡°Over there.¡± The middle-aged man pointed at a house not far away.
¡°Very good! This Genuine Spiritual Stone is yours. ¡°
Chen Shaofeng casually threw a piece of Genuine Spiritual Stone to the middle aged man. When the middle aged man received the Genuine Spiritual Stone, he immediately became grateful: ¡°Thank you, Master!¡±
As he spoke, he left the City Lord¡¯s Mansion.
Under his guidance, Chen Shaofeng rushed over to Chen Guohao¡¯s room.
He opened the door to the room and found that the interior was not much different from the usual room. There was only a bed and nothing else.
There was a table, of course, but that was all.
If there was anything strange about it, he was puzzled as he did not see anything out of the ordinary.
¡°Is there really no secret room in this room?¡±
Chen Shaofeng didn¡¯t give up and continued to search around the room. However, no matter how he searched, he didn¡¯t find any secret rooms.
The wall had already been broken, but there wasn¡¯t the slightest trace of life in this secret chamber.
Just as he was about to give up, the Xiao Hei suddenly jumped up from his shoulder and rushed towards the bed.
¡°Xiao Hei! What are you doing? ¡± Chen Shaofeng immediately asked.
Of course, the Xiao Hei was unable to answer his question, but he still used his own way to check the current situation of the Xiao Hei.
The Xiao Hei ignored him, and rushed towards a wooden board on the bed. Before Chen Shaofeng could regain his senses, the Xiao Hei smashed onto the wooden board.
Bang!
A loud noise came out from the room, following that, Chen Shaofeng heard the sound of gears moving, and under his astonished gaze, the originally ordinary big bed actually broke apart at that moment.
When therge bed waspletely separated, what appeared in front of Chen Shaofeng and the rest was another room.
¡°There really is a secret chamber!¡±
Chen Shaofeng was immediately happy in his heart, he knew that his guess was right, this room really had another world.
From the looks of it, the room inside should be where Chen Guohao kept his treasures.
When he thought about the treasures, Chen Shaofeng¡¯s eyes immediately lit up, he immediately became spirited, and without saying a word, he rushed into the secret room.
The moment he entered the secret room, he was shocked by the scene in front of him. He never would have thought that there would be so many treasures hidden in a small secret room.
There were also countless treasures of heaven and earth, which made Xiao Hei salivate.
There was no need for Chen Shaofeng to say anything at all. After entering the secret room, the Xiao Hei rushed out, its mouth wide open, and actually bit down on one of the heavenly resources.
¡°Xiao Hei, wait a moment!¡±
Chen Shaofeng originally wanted to stop the Xiao Hei from eating it. After all, all the heavenly and earthly treasures were extremely rare.
If he could use it to refine pill, then the effect would be many times better than swallowing it directly.
It was just that he didn¡¯t have time to stop it right now, because the Xiao Hei had long since swallowed the heavenly resource in one gulp.
Chen Shaofeng was afraid that Yue Yang would take out more heaven and earth treasures to eat, hence he hurriedly put all the heaven and earth treasures into his storage bag.
Although these heavenly materials weren¡¯t particrly rare, they were enough for him to refine pill.
All along, he had wanted to refine pill, but in the recent days, after continuous battles, he had forgotten about this matter. It was only when he saw these treasures that he remembered about this matter.
He had nevere into contact with alchemy, but he had always yearned for it. This was because alchemists had a very high status in the continent.
There were also alchemists in their Great Tang Country and there were many of them, but all of the alchemists that could be called master alchemists were alchemists of at least the second rank.
However, there were very few apothecaries who were like this. It was easy to imagine how difficult it was to be a master apothecary.
Chen Shaofeng wanted to be a true Pill Refiner from a person who had never even learned pill refining before, it was not a simple matter.
Of course, if there really was a chance, Chen Shaofeng wouldn¡¯t give up either.
Regardless of whether he could be an apothecary or not, these treasures were all extremely important to him.
If one day he really needed these heavenly and earthly treasures, then he wouldn¡¯t have to go through a lot of ways to find them, right?

Chapter 32
C32 ¨C Purple Dragon Spirit Treasure
With the heavenly materials taken away by Chen Shaofeng, the Xiao Hei immediately revealed an unhappy look.
Seeing his appearance, Chen Shaofeng was speechless. He then took out a few seals from the bottle of pill s and threw it into the mouth of the Xiao Hei.
He originally thought that the Xiao Hei would vomit out the pill, but it turned out that the Xiao Hei swallowed the pill and digested it.
After having tasted the pill¡¯s sweetness, he once again looked at the pill in Chen Shaofeng¡¯s hands and drool continuously dripped down.
¡°Alright, alright! I¡¯ll give you another pill. Don¡¯t look at me like that. ¡°
Since Chen Shaofeng was helpless, he slightly regretted giving the pill to the Xiao Hei to eat.
It had to be known that this was a True Spirit Pill, the pill used by warriors to replenish their true strength could also help in their cultivation, and the market value was at least 10 pieces of low grade Genuine Spiritual Stone.
Furthermore, the True Spirit Pills in his hands, were obviously not something an ordinary True Spirit Pills couldpare with. Not to mention ten low-ranked Genuine Spiritual Stone, even twenty of them were wanted by some low-ranked Genuine Spiritual Stone.
Of course, the value of Xiao Hei far surpassed the True Spirit Pill, so even though his heart ached, Chen Shaofeng did not say anything.
In the secret room, other than these, there were also a few Genuine Spiritual Stone. The quantity was not high, and it was only ten to twenty thousand.
They were all taken into the storage bag.
When he put everything back into the storage bag, he realized that his storage bag was unconsciously filled to the brim.
¡°It looks like it¡¯s time to change to a bigger storage bag.¡± Chen Shaofeng muttered to himself.
Seeing that there was no one in the room, Chen Shaofeng nodded his head in satisfaction. Just that, when he was about to leave the room, an ordinary looking, rusted iron spear suddenly appeared in his line of sight.
When he first entered the room, he had also seen this spear. However, his attention had been on the treasure in the secret chamber, so he hadn¡¯t paid much attention to it.
When he looked at its body again, he found that the iron spear was very special. It was a purplish-gold color and even though it was already stained with rust, it still couldn¡¯t hide the sharp edge of the spear.
¡°Good spear!¡±
The weapon that Tyrant used was a spear type weapon.
The king of all weapons, he could sweep with his spear, he could be light in weight, he could be used as a strength type, or he could be used as a casual type like a longsword.
But no matter which method it was, it would depend on one¡¯s own strength to determine the use of this spear technique.
But since he had set his eyes on the iron spear, Chen Shaofeng would naturally not let it go, and immediately grabbed it.
Except, he¡¯d never thought that the moment he held the spear in his hand, the strength behind it would shock him.
Even with his current fourth level of Innate Mortal Martial, he still could not lift a rusty iron spear, so how could he not be shocked?
Chen Shaofeng did not give up, and directly went to grab it, this time he learnt to be smarter, so he used his true qi to wrap both his arms to grab it.
However, in the end, he was unable to pick it up. This left him speechless.
The more he thought about it, the more he understood that this metal spear in front of him was extraordinary. If he were to put this spear here, he wouldn¡¯t be willing to give up!
So what if he was unwilling? He couldn¡¯t take him, so what should he do?
Just when Chen Shaofeng didn¡¯t know what to do, the Xiao Hei directly walked onto his arm and bit his finger.
However, he bit down very carefully, so there was only a little bit of blood.
The blood flowed down his finger and dripped onto the spear.
Boom!
A loud sound rang out, and immediately, the iron spear began to glow with a boundless radiance. A purplish-golden light shot up into the sky.
The surrounding space was illuminated by this light. Under this light, the originally ordinary spear began to emit a purple golden light. Moreover, this light continued to circte around the spear.
At the same time, the rusting ce hadpletely disappeared.
It was bound by blood!
This weapon was actually a weapon that was going to bind it with blood.
Chen Shaofeng naturally knew very well that binding it with blood. This was something that only a spirit treasure or above needed to be made.
For example, any mortal weapon below the Spirit Treasure would only need to be held in the hand to be used. Therefore, there were many ordinary weapons, and even Heaven Grade ones could be found.
But spirit artifacts, that was something out of the legends. Not mentioning their Great Tang Country, even the number of martial practitioners who possessed spirit artifacts could be counted on one hand.
And every martial practitioner who possessed a spirit artifact was an expert from a certain force.
Yet, Chen Shaofeng was able to get a Spirit Equipment, he had to admit that his luck was not ordinary.
However, the existence of a spirit artifact was good, but it was also a ticking time bomb. If it wasn¡¯t good, there was a possibility that a certain force would take notice of it, resulting in them being endlessly hunted down.
At the very least, Chen Shaofeng now had a trump card that could protect his life.
Even if he was only at the fourth level of Innate Mortal Martial and was unable to unleash the power of the Spirit Weapon, as long as he wasn¡¯t a strong Innate Spirit Martial Realm expert, it would still be easy for him to preserve his life.
After binding it with blood, when Chen Shaofeng held the iron spear once again, he felt that his mind and this spirit artifact were linked. The two hearts seemed to be linked together, as if he felt a very special sensation.
Only, even he was unable to clearly exin this special feeling.
¡°From today on, you shall be called Zi Long!¡± Chen Shaofeng said with a smile.
The purple dragon seemed to have heard Chen Shaofeng¡¯s words and immediately emitted a burst of light.
Chen Shaofeng had heard about Spirit Channels before, but he never thought that it was true. This made him extremely happy.
A wave of Domineering Qi s were naturally released from the surface of his body.
The Domineering Qi had spread above the purple dragon, causing its aura to grow evenrger. This enormous aura was not something that ordinary weapons couldpare to.
The Xiao Hei on his shoulder also felt the Qi, and he released his Qi, it had to be said, the Qi of the Xiao Hei was not just average strong, even Chen Shaofeng who had inherited the dao of Ba could notpare to it.
From this, it could be seen how powerful the Xiao Hei were.
He didn¡¯t know if it was an illusion, but Chen Shaofeng had a nagging feeling that ever since he ate the heavenly and earthly treasures of the pill, the Xiao Hei¡¯s aura had be even stronger.
¡°It seems that the higher the level of the pill, the more useful it is for him.¡±
Thinking of this, Chen Shaofeng became more and more anxious to be an alchemist. Otherwise, with such a bottomless pit, the pill on his body would not even be enough to fill up his teeth!
This, he had just thought of this, when the Xiao Hei danced on his body again, obviously wanting the pill again.
With no other choice, Chen Shaofeng took out two True Spirit Pills and ced it in his mouth.
Only then did the Xiao Hei swallow it down, and then fell asleep on his shoulder with satisfaction.
Chen Shaofeng shook his head, and in the end, still ced the purple dragon into his storage bag. There was no other way, he really wanted to use the spirit artifact to show off his might, but if anyone found out that it was a spirit artifact, then no matter how high his level was, with his current realm, he could only die.
In the end, those who were able to see through the spirit weapon and wanted to seize it were all people with great strength.
With Chen Shaofeng¡¯s current strength, it was simply impossible for him to protect the safety of the purple dragon.
So he decided not to use it. He would try his best not to use the Purple Dragon. But once he used the Purple Dragon, he must ensure that no one survived.
This was the only way he wouldn¡¯t expose the existence of the Purple Dragon.
Following that, Chen Shaofeng left the City Lord¡¯s Mansion. This trip of the City Lord¡¯s Mansion could be said to be quite the harvest, not to mention collecting manymon tools and treasures, just the Purple Dragon Spear alone was enough to make Chen Shaofeng excited.
Of course, Chen Shaofeng did not know why Chen Guohao did not take it out to use even though he clearly had a Spirit Weapon.
Perhaps he didn¡¯t know that this was a spirit weapon, or maybe he simply didn¡¯t think that a small Xiantian fourth stage martial artist would need a spirit weapon at all!
Regardless of the reason, this purple dragon was an advantage for Chen Shaofeng.
