Chapter 56: Symbol arrangement techniques
If it wasn't Blood Spirit Poison then what was it?
"Trying to fool me!" Li Changyun face was full of disdain, "Whether it was the ingredients, or the colour, or smell, it was all like the Blood Spirit Poison. Or else is there anything that was fake?"
"These ingredients are for refining the Blood Spirit Poison, but I slightly altered the material proportions. If the proportions are changed, then the medicine won't be the same."
"What did you say!"
"You were too negligent, so you didn't notice, but I put over five times the amount of lamenting grass during the refining."
Li Changyun complexion paled, "What does that matter!"
"The Blood Spirit Poison was just a camouflage, it was concealing the Lamenting Poison that was the real killing move! The Lamenting Poison is colourless so having the Blood Spirit Poison act as a camouflage was flawless."
Lamenting Poison?
What was the Lamenting Poison!
Li Changyun had never heard of it, so he forced himself to stay calm, coldly smiled and said, "Don't bluff, you only refined one bottle of poison from beginning to end."
"This is because the two poisons were refined in a refining array!"
Xiong Tianyan included, all the alchemists were completely shocked!
One refining bottle, one refining array, one set of ingredients, how could he refine two different poisons?
If Li Changyun's double refining could be referred to as advanced techniques, then Chu Tian's refining two different compounds at once was just never heard of before!
Chu Tian continued to say, "You used figs as one of the ingredients for your cure because that is one of the ways to cure the Blood Spirit Poison. However you didn't know that adding figs while detoxifies the Blood Spirit Poison, it actually strengthens the Lamenting Poison by ten times!"
Wh….What!"
Li Changyun started to swoon, his vision became fuzzy, and he could not stand up steadily!
"The Lamenting Poison is exhibiting its effects." Chu Tians calm voice echoed in his ear and then his voice sounded again, "Old fool! You've lost!"
Lost!
Li Changyun had lost!
Li Changyun was actually poisoned!
Alchemy technique that was marvelous and beyond the understanding of the average man.
The same materials in different proportions being refined in the same bottle, using the same refining technique. Without separating them into an order, Chu Tian refined both of them at the same time.
One is clearly visible!
The other was hidden!
The most fearful thing about Chu Tian was that he already knew what Li Changyun would use for his antidote, so through complex pharmacological effects, he made it so that it would enhance the effect of the poison!
"No, NO!"
"This isn't possible!"
Li Changyun crazily roared.
At this time, his vision was fuzzy, his brain was dizzy, he couldn't differentiate between north, south, east and west. In his ear, the sound was distorted, like a evil ghost wrapping around his body, sending out lamenting cries.
"Ignorant little child!"
"How could I possibly lose to you?"
Li Changyun was hysteric as he roared into the sky and a giant Python Source Spirit shot into the sky from behind him.
"I want you to die!"
The Python Source Spirit roared and released spirit energy, but before the moment before it could launch its attack.
"AH!"
Li Changyun pitifully called out and spat out a large mouthful of blood and fell straight down. The Python Source Spirit began to erode, as its body broke down cun (2.5 cm) by cun and in an instant it was reduced to mere ashes.
The Source Spirit was also wounded?
How did this happen!
Chu Tian just stood motionless in place because he had already predicted everything, "Oh, I almost forgot to tell you, the Lamenting Poison is a violent spiritual poison and not a fatal poison. But without treating it first, if you rashly use your source spirit, it will leave a scar on your source spirit permanently damaging it!"
Li Changyun fell to the ground, his face was white and he was slowly dying, "You, you….."
Powerful!
Really powerful!
Chu Tian was just playing around with an Awakened Soul Cultivator!
Nangong Yi clenched his fist excitedly, "Li Changyun has lost! According to the stakes, he is now exiled forever! Immediately carry it out!"
Li Changyun spat out a mouthful of blood.
He dead fainted.
Nangong Yi swept over everyone with an excited look, "In the domain of Alchemy, Chu tian can defeat the Alchemy Guild Chairman in one fell swoop, who can still say that he is a cheat that gained fame from deceiving people?!"
Can a conman beat a person like Li Changyun?
Isn't this a huge joke?
"Why are you all gawking? I am only a little thief that stole your technology, please properly punish me!" Chu Tian had a taunting expression, "Don't you still have two opportunities! Don't be scared, don't be frightened, feel free to use any method!"
Chu Tian with one person's strength.
Brazenly shouting at several large families!
Nangong Yun puffed in laughter, "Great! President's aggressive attitude, this old lady likes this kind of men! Hurry! Teach them all a lesson!"
The Nangong witch had a mouth without a lid, saying whatever she wanted to say.
Meng Qingwu and Meng Yingying couldn't bare to look at her.
Ye Family, Du Family, Luo Yuanshan, and Chu Yi, their expressions all became very ugly!
They faced Chu Tian by throwing ridicule and insults at him, but looking at this discussion, they started realizing a serious problem. This time they weren't aware of what Chu Tian was truly capable of, instead they lifted the stone only to smash in on their own feet!
Chu Tian loudly shouted, "What wrong? It's only a game! Are you already scared out of your wits?!"
"Stop being so wild! I'll come face you!" Luo Yuanshan was so angry that his face turned blue, "I'll compete in Symbol Arrangement with you!"
Going from competing in Alchemy to Symbol Arrangement?
Luo Yuanshan was very famous in the Main City for his skills in Symbol Arrangement, not any less than Zhang Liqing was in South Sky City. Luo Yuanshan did not believe that this little brat Chu Tian could be skilled in both Alchemy and Symbol Arrangement?
Once Zhang Liqing and Nangong Yun heard this.
Their faces broke out in smiles.
Competing in Symbol Arrangement? This fellow was really going to have a bad time!
Chu Tian stroked his chin, "This will be difficult, you are a person of Central State Main City so you don't have any property in South Sky City. So if I use my life to play with you, what can you give my in return?"
"You can win one game, but it was nothing more than a blind cat hitting a dead rat, don't be so sure it'll go your way this time. This time, you have no chance of winning!
Chu Tian shook his head, "That won't do, if you don't put up any stakes then I just won't compete?"
Luo Yuanshan clenched his teeth and took out a shining crystal card, "This card contains 500000 gold coins, more than enough to pay for your bastard life!"
"Not enough!" Chu Tian rolled his eyes, "I want the Du Family's model manufacturing plant!"
"What?" Du Zhentian was surprised, he never thought Chu Tian would think of this kind of idea, "My Du Family's property, how can a little thief like you think about it!"
The Du Family specialized in the weapons business.
Their factory was the most advanced in South Sky City!
This era was far behind, but simple three dimensional printing technology had already taken shape!
For example, to create a scabbard one just had to place the materials in the Source Energy Array and then after starting the array, the materials will start adjusting its shape and create a simple model.
This was the three dimensional printing technology!
In Chu Tian's time, from small precise parts, to large airships, they could all be made with the three dimensional printing technology. But in this time, they could only create simple models.
If Miracle Commerce had this factory.
They could increase the speed of their electric lamp production, every day they could make tens of thousands without any problems!
The three dimensional printing equipment in Du Zhentian's hand had a value of around 1 million gold coins, it could greatly compensate for Miracle Commerce's lack of funds!
Luo Yuanshan and Ye Xiong both knit their brows, this brat really dares to do whatever he wants!
Ye Xiong said, "Does brother Du not trust the capabilities of sir Luo?
Luo Yuanshan also said, "Relax, he will not have the opportunity!"
Du Zhentian was feeling a little regretful.
He wish he knew early about these turbid waters!
Du Family did not have that deep of a grudge with Chu Tian, but rather Du Zhentian feared that with Chu Tian's growth he would eventually interfere with the Du Family's business. Now that things were like this, he had not taken care of Chu Tian and had formed enmity with the Mayor, Zhang Liqing and Xiong Bing.
"Fine, I'll bet!"
Du Zhentian didn't have any other choice, he could only clench his teeth and agree.
Luo Yuanshan coldly looked at Chu Tian and said, "You know that Symbol Techniques are a very important supporting combat ability, how strong the kingdom's Symbol Techniques are decides the strength of its army. What I want to compare with you is the strength of our Symbol Techniques!"
This kind of remark!
Nangong Yun and Zhang Liqing's expressions became solemn.
Luo Yuanshan was really sly!
A Talisman's quality depended on its characteristics, like the effect, creativity, usability, manufacturing difficulty, consumption size, display difficulty, etc.
Luo Yuanshan wanted to abandon all of that.
He wanted to directly compete with Chu Tian in Symbol Techniques strength!
Could this even be compared?
Luo Yuanshan was already an Awakened Soul Cultivator so he could make level 2 Talismans, but Chu Tian was only a Body Refinement Cultivator so he could only make level 1 Talismans.
This was a heaven and earth difference!
Luo Yuanshan had an appearance like he just pulled a clever trick, "What's wrong? Are you scared?"
Chu Tian said without hesitation, "Isn't it just comparing the strength of our Symbol Techniques? Then I'll just compare with you!"
He really wanted to compete in strength?
With this kind of disparity, Chu Tian had no way to win!
After all overwhelming strength was hard to make up with just skill, several people were worried!
A variety of Symbol Arrangement ingredients were quickly delivered over.
The fight between Symbol Techniques immediately began!
Luo Yuanshan wasn't a well-known Symbol Technique Master in Central State for nothing, he held the crystal pen in his hand and in a single stroke incompleted a level 2 Symbol array on a piece of high level paper. A burning hot aura burst out, its formidable strength almost teared through the paper, each mark, each rune was full of wild strength.
Zhang Liqing face could not help turning pale after seeing this, "Level 2 exploding flames symbol!"
Nangong Yun also understood Symbol Techniques, "Isn't this the Talisman with the strongest destructive power out of all level 2 Talismans?"
Zhang Liqing solemnly nodded his head, "The exploding flames symbol is a famous Talisman, its strength is sufficient enough to break the might of an Awakened Soul Cultivator and can pose a fatal threat to them."
Nangong Yun was aggrieved, "This sinister fellow!"
This old thing already had an advantage in terms of cultivation, the difference between level 2 and level 1 was already disgraceful. Luo Yuanshan not only chose to use a level 2 Symbol Technique, he also chose to use the strongest on out of all level 2 Symbol Techniques.
How was this a contest?
The gap between cultivation realms was impossible to cross!
This is just like a Body Refinement Cultivator trying to duel with an Awakened Soul Cultivator!
Talisman level division is based on the ability of the Talisman to consume and release energy, in other words, the strongest level 1 Talisman was only comparable to the weakest level 2 Talisman in terms of energy.
This was the disparity!
The disparity that was hard to make up for!
Chu Tian could certainly distinguish that the type Talisman Luo Yuanshan refined, the exploding flames Talisman was a classic, even after several tens of thousands of years and improvements after improvements had been made, this Talisman still existed, it had not disappeared from the continent.
Its specialty was destructive power!
If both sides' strength were around the same, if Chu Tian wanted to win, it would be easy. However under the present conditions, if he wanted to win, it wasn't that easy a thing to accomplish.
Of course, it wasn't as if there were no methods.
In Chu Tian's mind he had thought of several ideas…..for example, he could use the "Dust Explosion Symbol". This was a dual attribute Talisman that can instantly creates a massive amount of dust and then it creates flames which causes an explosion that utilizes the dust to strengthen the effects of the explosion, resulting in astonishing destructive power. Or perhaps the "Laser Symbol", which compressed energy into a high density, it had a small area of effect, but its penetrating effect was strengthened and it was highly lethal…...
The Dust Explosion Symbol was good.
The Laser Symbol was also good.
Any of the future generations classic Talisman would cause a huge stir if they were used, but…...it wasn't shocking enough!
Chu Tian needed one that thoroughly shocked the audience and would allow him to win by a landslide, making sure that everyone was convinced, enough to make their eyeballs pop out.
Only if it was this thorough would people be convinced!
With a level 1 Symbol Array, could he achieve this kind of effect?
Chu Tian raised his head to look at the sky and suddenly he had a thought, "Good, I've decided, I'll just that then!"
Both sides prepared their Talismans.
Nangong Yi said, "This place is too crowded and not suitable for testing, let's move to a more open space!"
Chapter 57: Heavenly Thunder is billowing
The dark clouds hung over, the heavens and earth were gloomy, winds were raging, and there was a chilling atmosphere.
In the South Sky square, people were surging in, a sea of people could be seen as many residents had come to spectate. They had to witness this contest that could be considered a legend!
One was a seventeen year old mysterious youth.
The other was an Awakened Soul Cultivator, a heavy weight elder.
These two people were from completely different worlds, yet before everyone's eyes they had started an incredible contest!
Both sides were ready.
What would the results be?
Would this mysterious youth be able to resist being crushed by Luo Yuanshan and once again perform a miraculous counter attack?!
The contest area was around 200 meters in diameter with all bystanders evacuated to the sides, only Chu Tian and Luo Yuanshan stood inside, separated by 100 meters, staring at each other, both prepared.
Luo Yuanshan's clear voice said, "Do you want to go first, or should I?"
"I don't have any problems with my person, possess a righteous spirit, am brave and peace loving, and I respect my elders and cherish youths no matter what." Chu Tian indifferently shrugged, "So, as the elder, you should go first!"
Luo Yuanshan didn't bother being polite and calmly extracted his Talisman, holding it in the middle with two fingers, he tightly closed his eyes, the wind blew across his body and a wave of red Spirit Energy seeped out around him."
"Roar!"
A red lion figure, suddenly appeared behind Luo Yuanshan's back - The Berserk Flame Lion Source Spirit!
Luo Yuanshan's source spirit had a fire attribute which meant that when he uses fire attribute Symbol Techniques, it added even more power to it.
The Talisman absorbed the spirit energy like a sponge, the array lines began to glow red and the energy fluctuations began to grow stronger and stronger until it reached its critical point.
Chi!
A burning hot air spewed out!
The Talisman completely self-ignited.
"Exploding Flame Spell!" Luo Yuanshan wildly exclaimed, "Go!"
The ignited Talisman began to emit flames, a small fireball appeared in his hands, rotating at high speeds. It grew from fist size, to sink size, to water tank size, continuing to rotate at high speeds and stirring up the surrounding air.
Even the people standing in the distance.
Could still feel the burning air at this moment!
Luo Yuanshan's ten fingers continued to emit spirit energy that formed two Source Energy Arrays, stabilizing the giant fireball and holding onto the top and bottom of it.
At this moment, the fireball's strength was at its peak, it was like a small sun, bursting with light!
The crowd's face changed, an Awakened Soul Symbol Master's strength was truly terrifying!
"Do you see this? Overconfident little thing!" Luo Yuanshan wildly laughed, "This is the strength of an Awakened Soul Realm Cultivator! What can you use to compare with me!"
Suddenly!
Luo Yuanshan had a thought!
After Chu Tian beat Li Changyun, Nangong Yi already had a reason to protect him with, so even if he won this Symbol Technique contest, it wasn't a guarantee he could take him away.
Then why not just, directly use this explosion to kill him?
He had to die!
By any means!
"A little thief like you can think about challenging me?" Suddenly Luo Yuanshan threw the fireball right at Chu Tian, "You don't need to embarrass yourself, you can die right now!"
This move put everyone in a daze, this was clearly a competition of Symbol Techniques!
Luo Yuanshan did not care about the rules and directly used his Symbol Technique to attack Chu Tian!
A single Body Refinement Cultivator, how could he block an attack from an Awakened Soul Cultivator? Luo Yuanshan obviously wants to cause Chu Tian's death! It was simply murder, moreover everyone felt that it was despicable how he use a sneak attack to kill someone!
A dignified Awakened Soul Cultivator was sneak attacking a Body Refinement Cultivator!
"Not good!"
Nangong Yi and Zhang Liqing were both shocked.
Nangong Yi's source spirit was the Volcano Source Spirit, its destructive power was alarming to the point of being able to fight higher level people, but the Volcano Source Spirit was slow at gathering strength, it had no way to respond to this kind of situation.
Zhang Liqing released green spirit energy and changed into the majestic goshawk, with extreme speed, he soared into the sky and dived towards the fireball, grasping it in his hand.
"Bang!"
The fireball was grasped until it broke, a terrifying wave of flames burst forth, flooding out like a great flood. Facing the flame wave, Chu Tian's two eyebrows knit together and he clenched his fists, his whole body exuded a slight glow and his palms shot out a mighty push.
The next minute!
The flame wave completely submerged him!
"NO!" Meng Yingying called out in alarm, "Chu Tian!"
Meng Qingwu's face turned white and her beautiful eyes turned round.
Nangong Yun angrily stomped her foot, a phoenix cry sounded through the nine heavens as she shot up through the sky with a pair of phoenix wings on her back, she suddenly dropped like a meteor and attacked.
"Sinister old dog!"
"I need to kill you!"
Nangong Yun's fists fell like a violent storm, each fist contained ancient and arrogant strength, like a powerful meteor shower.
Luo Yuanshan complexion changed, the flame lion let out a roar and suddenly let out a punch forward.
Bang!
Both of them respectively took several steps back.
Luo Yuanshan showed shock, to repel Nangong Yun's fists, he felt that his vital energies were agitated. This trivial peak 9th layer Body Refinement girl, could unexpectedly rattle an Awakened Soul Realm Cultivator. She wasn't just surmounting a level, she was surmounting an entire realm!
Is this the strength of a God Level Source Spirit?
It is truly terrifying!
Nangong Yun wasn't an Awakened Soul Realm Cultivator, but she could fight with Awakened Soul Realm Cultivators!
Nangong Yi knit his brows, "Yun'er, stop it!"
Nangong Yi knew the extent of his daughter's strength, her direct power was not inferior to an Awakened Soul 1st layer cultivator, it might even surpass that. But the total amount of spirit energy that Body Refinement cultivators had was far less than an Awakened Soul cultivator, so fighting short term is fine, but if they are unable to immediately kill the enemy, they would eventually lose in the long run because they'll run out of spirit energy.
Nangong Yun stared with her phoenix eyes, "You also saw it! This bastard sneak attacked Chu Tian!"
Luo Yuanshan coldly said, "He would have lost anyway, I just sent him on his way a little early!"
"You're the one that deserves to die! I'll just deliver you on your way!"
Nangong Yi shouted, "Chu Tian is fine!"
A flash of thunder flashed in the sky and the sound shook the earth, they could only see the rain water fall down. The place where the fire ball had exploded left a giant pit, surrounded by scattered flames.
"Cough, cough!"
Chu Tian's head was covered in ashes as he crawled out of the pit, his clothes were charred black and his handsome face was completely black. His eyes in contrast were shining bright like the morning star.
He smiled with his black face, revealing a set snow of white teeth, "I never thought before that you actually cared about me that much!"
"No way! You didn't die? Your life force is truly stubborn!" Nangong Yun let out a breath of relief and patted her chest to calm down, "You scared me to death, it doesn't matter if you die, but if you did, where would I get my pay check from from now on!"
Fuck, the sentiment was actually self sentiment!
Luo Yuanshan's sudden sneak attack was truly dangerous, but in the crucial moments, Zhang Liqing had destroyed the fire ball, letting it burst early.
Chu Tian had practiced the Starlight Immortal body which greatly increased his defensive capabilities, so he could resist the strong backlash. Although he had some wounds, they weren't life threatening.
Nangong Yi's voice became ice cold, "Luo Elder is a member of the supervising palace, yet would commit such a despicable act. From my point of view, I don't think there is any need for this competition to continue."
The crowd all nodded their heads.
One by one they all started whispering to each other.
That's right, Luo Yuanshan had acted like a villain!
Since these group of fellows had proven that they're nothing but villains, what was the point of competing still? Chu Tian had already proved himself, no one believed the slanders against him anymore.
"Sir Mayor, we can't do that!" Chu Tian suddenly shouted to interrupt, "This old dog harmed me quite a bit, it isn't my style to not get repayment for this debt."
With great difficulty Nangong Yi had found a way out for him, but this little brat did not appreciate it, he was simply impossible for people to understand, "You still want to compete? Did you brain break!"
Isn't this nonsense?
Compete, he had to compete!
500000 gold coins and a factory worth 1 million gold coins, if these golden geese flew away, then it would be hard for you to compensate me!
Chu Tian stared at Luo Yuanshan, "You used your Symbol Technique to attack me once, so I'll use my Symbol Technique to attack you once, you won't oppose that right?"
Luo Yuanshan disdainfully smiled, "Relying on you? What a joke! I really want to see, what methods you have that can hurt me!"
"Then open your eyes and look well!"
Chu Tian grasped the Talisman, both hands injecting spirit energy!
Most of the spirit energy poured into the centre of the Talisman.
Fizzle!
The Talisman gradually activated, faint electric arcs shot out.
Everyone looked on with amazement, it couldn't be a thunder and lightning attribute talisman right?
Chu Tian waves his hand, the Talisman flew high in the sky, from it bursted out purplish red lightning, with unbelievable speed, suddenly headed for Luo Yuanshan.
It was really thunder attributed?
This rare attributed Talisman, only certain people in Central State could manufacture this. They never thought that Chu Tian would be able to create this kind of Talisman!
Bang!
The lightning and thunder hit Luo Yuanshan.
"Ha, ha, ha…." Luo Yuanshan's body was covered in thunder sparks, but regardless of how the thunder spread, it was unable to penetrate his spirit energy shield, "A rare attributed Talisman, of course it would have a strong attack! This strength is just like a level 1 Talisman, with such basic Symbol Techniques, you actually think you can beat me?"
Chu Tian stood unmoving as he began to count down, "Ten, nine, eight….."
Luo Yuanshan was surprised, he found that the surrounding electric arcs were not dissipating, but rather moving to form a faint complex rune!
What was happening?
Although it wasn't very strong.
This phenomenon was very strange!
"...Three, two, one!"
Chu Tian had finished counting.
"Wah!"
"What is that?"
"You guys look at the sky!"
"..."
The crowd erupted with screams.
Luo Yuanshan looked up, an old bald face was reflecting blue and white light. He did not know when, but the clouds above Luo Yuanshan's head unexpectedly had accumulated a large amount of thunder.
Natural thunder and lightning!
The strength of heavenly thunder, its might could not be measured!
Luo Yuanshan felt his body lock up in terror, a sense of fear filled his soul and covered Luo Yuanshan's body.
"No…..NO!"
Luo Yuanshan finally reacted!
Can he run?
There wasn't enough time!
A bolt of thunder had finished gathering and fell from the sky, carrying out the will of the heavens and earth, directly struck right in the square, accurately falling on Luo Yuanshan's body.
The spirit energy shield, was blown away with one hit, just like paper!
"Rumbling!"
The heavenly thunder had cleaved the earth.
Luo Yuanshan's body had been split to pieces!
Nangong Yi had an amazed expression, Luo Yuanshan was split to death by thunder, he actually got split apart by thunder!
Chu Tian looked at the broken corpse on the ground and coldly said, "The Guiding Thunder Talisman is a level 1 Talisman, by itself it is not strong, but it can attract heavenly thunder. I had no intentions to kill anyone, you only have yourself to blame!"
Ye Xiong and Du Zhentian were paralyzed with fear!
Chu Tian could unexpectedly summon heavenly thunder!
How was this possible?
Heavenly thunder was a great power, even a top Awakened Soul cultivator could not freely control it. But Chu Tian could do it, he summoned the heavenly thunder and used it to kill Luo Yuanshan!
Chu Tian's gaze swept over the crowd, "Whoever dares to annoy me, I'll go to your house and place a dozen Guiding Thunder Symbols there, letting him have a taste of the heavenly thunder! Today's idiot could be your group of idiots tomorrow!"
Overbearing! Crazy!
Shameless threats!
Everyone was absolutely terrified!
Don't even mention a dozen heavenly thunder strikes, just one was enough to destroy them!
Actually Chu Tian was just scaring them, the effects of the level 1 Guiding Thunder Talisman was astonishing, but it could not be freely used. It could only be used during a thunderstorm and it could only bring together one thunder strike.
The thunder also struck at a set location.
Actually if Luo Yuanshan reacted a bit faster and left the area a bit sooner, he wouldn't have been killed by the thunder strike!
But how could these people think of these things?
Right now they were all terrified!
Chapter 58: Competing in martial arts
Chu Tian beating Li Changyun was only enough to shock everyone. Using the level 1 talisman to kill an Awakened Soul cultivator was enough to terrify everyone.
Was he even human?
He was simply a terrifying monster!
A trivial Body Refinement cultivator, a trivial level 1 Talisman could actually capture thunder and use it create such a resounding effect!
Under the cover of heavenly prestige, everyone present was terrified from the bottom of their heart.
Even Nangong Yi with the highest cultivation, could not help but shiver slightly, from his soul, gushed a chill. If the heavenly thunder was aimed at him, he was afraid even he couldn't escape being killed on the spot!
Luo Yuanshan had died!
A Central State Judicial Elder had died like that!
The minute before the god of death had arrived, Luo Yuanshan had felt regret. For an ordinary family junior, for a little greed, he had lost his life for it!
Ye Xiong expression was complex, a little panic-stricken and a little angry.
Although he made the highest estimates, although he feared Chu Tian as much as possible, even with the joint power of four families, using the the greatest strength and resources to deal with him.
The results were not what they expected.
He had still underestimate Chu Tian!
Du Zhentian was pale with a look of despair, every side was met with defeat, he finally realized he had made a huge mistake!
The family's factory worth 1 million gold coins, was unexpectedly lost!
Chu Tian calmly said, "Shouldn't Sir Mayor say a few sentences?"
Nangong Yi seemed to be awakening from a dream and smiled bitterly, "There's nothing to say about this outcome, in the contest of Symbol Technique, Chu Tian wins without a doubt!"
Bang!
The crowd burst with intense emotions!
Everyone finally recovered from the panic and shock.
"I wasn't dreaming just now right!"
"Why did the heavenly thunder strike the square?"
"Right, that Awakened Soul master from Central State was unexpectedly split apart!"
"He got what he deserved! That is called heavenly retribution! Who told him to come to South Sky City and slander South Sky City's talents!"
"That's right! Chu Tian is a once in a thousand year genius, soon our South Sky City will become famous!"
"...."
When Chu Tian defeated Li Changyun, the level of technique was too complicated, the crowd couldn't understand.
This time's Symbol Technique competition was an open display, even idiots could understand it. Chu Tian Guiding Thunder Symbol's might was 10 times stronger than Luo Yuanshan's Exploding Flame Symbol!
A single glance was enough to make it clear.
Was there a need to compete?
Those that claimed Chu Tian stole their technology, were nothing but blind dogs. In the whole kingdom, who could display this kind of might with just a level 1 Talisman, so decisively win a contest?
Only Chu Tian could do it!
With this kind of talent, even though he wasn't famous now, soon there would be a day where he would go to the Main City, even go to the Imperial City and become one of the top characters of the kingdom!
Would he steal technology?
It was simply shameless slander!
The people who once envied Chu Tian, their hearts had completely changed. They no longer envied him, but rather what remained was respect and worship!
Because a poor beggar will only envy a rich beggar, they would not envy a billionaire, the two were not in the same world!
Meng Yingying and Meng Qingwu also had mixed feelings, they felt a little lost.
It wasn't that Chu Tian wasn't strong, he was too strong, too outstanding!
Zhang Liqing's old face was flushed, his eyes full of reverence, like a pilgrim seeing an object of god, "What is this wonderful technology ah! If this old man can learn even 1% of Chu Tian's knowledge, I would have no regrets in life!"
Chu Tian slowly let out two breathes, "Two chances have finished, you only have one chance left. Arrays, refining, or any other methods, as long as you beat me once, my commitment is still valid!"
Ye Xiong's face darkened, he couldn't think of any methods to deal with Chu Tian.
Chu Yi face was full of astonishment and panic, how did Chu Tian change this much? He looked the same, but was basically a completely different person!
It was simply a monster in Chu Tian's skin!
This person was too terrifying!
If he lived, once he returned to the Chu Family, he might even get an important position. At that time Chu Yi would be in trouble and even his branch would be implicated.
Chu Tian had to die!
This person can't live to see Central State!
Despite Chu Tian's achievements in the field of productions, his cultivation is still very weak. He had already been injured by Luo Yuanshan's Exploding Flame Talisman and he had used more that half his spirit energy in activating the Guiding Thunder Talisman, right now he was very weak.
"The third game!"
"Let me compete!"
"I want to compare martial arts with you!"
The person talking was Chu Yi!
Li Changyun representing the Ye Family, disastrous defeat!
Luo Yuanshan representing the Luo Family, disastrous defeat!
Two Awakened Soul grand masters had both been defeated, why did Chu Yi still dare to challenge Chu Tian?
Who would know that Chu Yi's right hand pulled out a three foot long sword, grasping the Cyan Tipped Sword in his hand, he pointed it at Chu Tian and exclaimed with an angry glare, "Chu Tian if you are a man, then accept my challenge!"
"These kinds of words you've just said!" Nangong Yun said with a face of disgust, "I've never seen such a shameless person before!"
Meng Qingwu also walked out, "You claimed that Chu Tian stole your technology, so Chu Tian gave you three chances to prove it. You first lost in Alchemy, then in Symbol Arrangement, and now you want to propose a martial arts contest? Let me ask you, what relations do martial arts have with the Source Energy pot technology, doing this kind of thing, aren't you pushing it?"
Meng Yingying fiercely denounced, "Bastard! You just want to bully Chu Tian because his cultivation is lower! Moreover Chu Tian has already exhausted his spirit energy and is injured, this is clearly taking advantage of someone, what kind of challenge is this!"
"That's right!"
"I never thought that the dignified Chu Family junior, would be so shameless!"
"..."
The crowd started to voice their opposition, they had turned their backs against them.
Chu Yi's underhanded methods, made people feel disgust.
He was clearly using the rebelling against the Chu Family reason as an excuse to steal the technology!
The situation now, the rebelling against the clan situation was fuzzy, they couldn't win against their opponents, so they were relying on force now? Isn't this one huge joke!"
This contest was already completely meaningless!
Ye Xiong walked out and said, "Chu Tian already proclaimed he would accept any kind of challenge, Alchemy and Symbol Arrangements are methods of competition, but isn't martial arts one too? The Chu Family's Young Master wants to ask Chu Tian to compare notes, no tricks, is this not allowed?
Letting Chu Tian bring shame and ruin upon himself was no longer possible!
This matter had already gone out of their control!
Death!
The only wanted him dead!
Nothing else was important!
If such a monstrous talent was allowed to grow, then the consequences would be dire!
Ye Xiong wanted to personally make a move, but with his position, if he made a move, Nangong Yi would not sit there and let him.
The only person who had the opportunity to kill Chu Tian was Chu Yi!
Chu Yi was not Central State Chu Family's most outstanding talent, but he could still be considered in the top ten. He had already awakened his source spirit and practiced the Chu Family's inherited cultivation technique"Soul Sword Secret Art"!
This"Soul Sword Secret Art"was said to be a remnant of an ancient cultivation technique, it was considered a priceless treasure Central State City and it was the lifeblood of the Chu Family.
Chu Yi's"Soul Sword Secret Art"was already at the small success stage, so its might was not small!
Chu Yi continued pointing the sword in provocation, "What's wrong, with things like this, are you scared?"
Chu Tian disdainfully smiled, "You and I are peers, if you challenge me, what do I have to fear? Come at me and let me see the Chu Family's martial art, let's see what's so special about it!"
He actually accepted!
"As you wish!" Chu Yi fiendishly grinned, his body emitted a strong killing intent, holding the sword to the sky and shouted upwards, "Sword!"
At that moment.
Chu Yi started to burst out with incomparable strength.
This strength was sharp as a knife and wide as an ocean, white spirit energy shot up into the sky and formed the shape of a green treasured sword.
A spirit energy sword!
The Chu Family was a famous sword cultivation family, in the family most people had a sword based source spirit. The sword source spirit had a strong strength and compared with the Chu Family's"Soul Sword Secret Art", they could easily sweep through cultivators of the same level!
Of course, even though the sword source spirit were similar, not everyone was alike.
Chu Yi had not officially entered the Awakened Soul Realm so his source spirit had not completely awaked, only a green sword outline could be faintly seen.
Green colour represented wind!
It was a wind attributed source spirit!
The characteristics of the wind attribute was quick and sharp!
"Soul Sword Secret Art - Whirlwind Slash!"
The corners of Chu Yi's mouth turned into a sneer, the sword source spirit had fused with the sword in his hand and began to emit numerous green sword qi, which turned into a whirlwind of green sword qi.
"How powerful!"
"So this is the Chu Family's sword technique!"
With Chu Yi's single move, everyone could not help but stare in amazement, the sword source spirit and sword had fused, creating a whirlwind of sword qi, moving to kill the enemy and perfectly protects oneself, simply impregnable!
The Chu Family sword techniques, truly lived up to its name!
Could Chu Tian block this kind of attack?
Several days ago, at the summit, Chu Tian was only at the peak of the 6th Body Refinement Layer, although he showed great battle strength, but facing a master like Chu Yi, he would definitely fall in one move!
Chu Tian narrowed his eyes and without moving he started to emit spirit energy which covered his entire body.
Everyone was surprised to discover, Chu Tian's body began to glow.
It was not bright like the sun, or mellow like the moon. Twinkling star, just like the starry night, gentle and intense, deep and mysterious, it soon covered his entire body. Like a protective film, it looked like a layer of stars were woven into his clothes.
"It's the Starlight Immortal Body!"
Meng Qingwu, Nangong Yun, and everyone else immediately recognized it.
Did Chu Tian want to use the Starlight Immortal Body to resist the Chu Family's sword techniques?
The Starlight Immortal body had only been practiced for a few days, it hadn't even reached the small success boundary yet!
Chu Yi's Soul Sword Secret Art had been practiced torturously for several years, and with his peak 9th Body Refinement cultivation, and his inherited family source spirit, all combined into a single technique.
Could he block it?
Remember, the essence of the immortal body, is not to fight." Chu Tian shrouded in starlight, looked just like a deity, "Endlessly, endlessly, the starlight is inexhaustible, even if the opponent's strength is strong. As you will it, your heart directs it, regardless of the attack, it will instantly form the strongest defense."
He was actually still teaching them!
He didn't even put Chu Yi into his sight!
While Chu Tian was talking, the injury from Luo Yuanshan's sneak attack, was slowly starting to heal.
The Starlight Immortal Body was curing the injury!
Chu Yi was extremely angry, "Trying to embarrass me? Go and die!"
The arc like whirlwind of sword qi, suddenly the dust around was raised by an invisible force and the sword qi transformed into a large arc. With the full strength of the whirlwind, it sliced towards Chu Tian.
This sword's might!
Even Awakened Soul cultivators would find it hard to use their spirit energy to defend!
Moreover, Chu Tian was only in the Body Refinement realm!
Facing this formidable attack, Chu Tian did not dodge or fall back, with both his arms shooting forth, he unexpectedly wanted to catch the sword qi with his hands.
Hiss!
Everyone was scared!
Using bare hands to catch sword qi?
Wasn't this seeking death!
The minute Chu Tian's hands grabbed the sword qi, the star energy covering his body began to converge in his hands, his hands became bright and translucent like the surface was covered with a coloured glaze.
The blue star light power, began to seep into the white sword qi, turning the white sword qi into a blue colour.
Snap!
Just like a piece of glass!
The sword qi shattered apart, turning into twinkling starlight, floating off into the wind.
"Don't move the body, only use your intent, the intent will guard the body becoming a godly defense!" Chu Tian's body was still covered in the glow as he calmly explained, "The main strength of the Starlight Immortal Body is decomposition, but it doesn't forcefully resist, it melts opposing force invisibly!"
Meng Qingwu, Meng Yingying, Nangong Yun and everyone else all seemed to be lost in thought.
This was the might of the Starlight Immortal Body?
Chapter 59: Standing still to let you chop
Even if it was an Awakened Soul cultivator, they would still be reduced to flesh and blood, let alone a Body Refinement cultivator?
Chu Yi's sword, was not a common sword, adding in the strength of his source spirit, the sword qi slashed out, strong as galing wind, fast as lightning, it could even easily cut iron and gold!
Perhaps Chu Tian's body was stronger than steel?
Nangong Yi could see through it, Chu Tian practiced a high class defense cultivation technique. He did not need to control his spirit energy, once he invokes it, the spirit energy would transform and instantly turn into starlight that would protect the body from harm!
This cultivation technique shocked everyone, without moving, just having the intent, the intent will protect the body, absolutely impregnable!
Before their spirit energy depletes, they can emit starlight and sweep through same level cultivators by ignoring their attacks, the best life preserving cultivation technique!
Chu Yi's eyes burned red, "Sure enough, this cultivation technique is not inferior to complete ancient technique. You've encountered a fortuitous chance and obtained this ancient inheritance."
This wasn't exactly right.
It wasn't an ancient inheritance, it was an inheritance from the future.
"I acknowledge the fact that I've underestimate you, with this cultivation technique on your body, you have the qualifications to challenge me." Chu Yi's breathing gradually increased and his eyes filled with envy. "But, you still aren't my opponent! That last attack only contained 30-40% of my strength, if I attacked for real, you would be dead!"
Such a strong sword!
It was only 30-40% of his strength?
Chu Yi had been taught by several Awakened Soul Cultivators since he was young, using the best ingredients to build his base, practicing the strongest cultivation technique in the family, and promoting his strength with the best resources. A person being trained like this, could he still be weak?
Chu Tian's mouth cracked into a smile, "Hearing you say this I'm actually relieved! Actually I only used 10% of my defensive strength!"
"You stubborn fool! Stop putting up such foolish resistance!" Chu Yi's face was full of greed, "Give me everything you have and waste your cultivation, then I won't kill you!"
Chu Tian teased him with dirty words, "How embarrassing, if you want to kill me then kill me, please don't hold it in, what if you hold it in too hard and get sick? Come, please kill me!"
"You brought this upon yourself!" Chu Yi's eyes turned red again as if bursting with anger, he faced up and shouted, "Sword!"
A fuzzy green shadow of a sword appeared behind him, a boundless aura was emitted that made Chu Tian feel a strong might.
Indeed!
This person had some skills!
This was the difference between big and small cities, or the difference between having resources and not having resources.
Comparing big city cultivators with small city cultivators, bigger cities had more resources and relationships, so the quality of cultivators from there was much higher than small cities.
Chu Yi could not compare with Nangong Yun.
He would be around the same level as Xiong Tianyan!
Although Chu Yi didn't use his full strength, the strength of the spirit energy Chu Tian displayed was already equal to the 9th Body Refinement layer, that strange and tyrannical cultivation technique covering him was able to block the Chu Family's sword techniques!
The inherited ancient technique was the best, he had to prepare for the worst case scenario. He had to at least kill Chu Tian, or else he would become a problem in the future!
Chu Yi had a strong intuition.
If the did not kill him this time, then there wouldn't be another chance!
"Soul Sword Secret Art!" The sword source spirit lit up and Chu Yi shot out a dozen sword qi at an incredible rate, forming a small storm of sword qi, "Storm Wind Style!"
Fast!
Too fast!
Chu Tian entered into hyper focus and quickly started to evade. Dodging most of the sword qi, but still 34 had hit his body.
Starlight protecting the body!
The minute each sword qi hit, they instantly burst into starlight.
So close!
Everyone was worried!
If Chu Tian had not practiced the Starlight Immortal Body, even if the sword qi slashes had not killed him, they would still have injured him.
The Starlight Immortal Body could stop attacks, but it consumed large amounts of spirit energy. Chu Tian from the start was not in his best condition and his cultivation was only at the peak 8th Body Refinement layer, how could his total spirit energy compare with Chu Yi's peak 9th Body Refinement layer cultivation!
"Ha, ha, ha!"
"You are nothing!"
"I haven't used my special technique yet!"
"It would be easy if I wanted to kill you, easy as pie!"
Chu Yi wildly laughed as he fiercely attacked, Chu Tian was obviously at a disadvantage.
"Taste this move of mine!"
"Soul Sword Secret Art! Cloud Sweeping Whirlwind!"
The sword source spirit released a strong green glow and broke apart, the countless green lights released from the breakdown process gathered around Chu Yi's body to form a whirlwind.
"Kill!"
Chu Yi stood in the eye of the storm and threw the whirlwind at Chu Tian.
The high rotation sword qi was like a meat grinder, tearing wildly at the starlight covering Chu Tian's body, everyone could see that the starlight slowly began to dim!
Chu Tian's body protecting starlight was already extremely weakened!
"You've defended against me twice. The Soul Sword Secret Art is the strongest cultivation technique in Central State, you competing against me, you have no way to win! I'll give you one last chance! Submit or die!"
This brat really had this much nonsense to say?
"Are you done talking?!"
Chu Tian felt very impatient, he suddenly stopped dodging. Just like a javelin, standing straight in the ground, "This little strength! Aren't you embarrassed saying you want to kill me?"
"You think you're some kind of master?"
"You think the Chu Family cultivation technique is that glorious?"
"You think that your Chu Family's cultivation technique is the strongest technique in Central State?"
"Actually in my eyes, it ain't worth shit. Your Chu Family's sword techniques, can't even compare to a monkey swinging a stick!"
"You think I can't kill you?" Chu Yi was extremely angered, if not for obtaining the cultivation technique, he would have already split him apart. After being provoked for so long, his patience had reached its limit!
Chu Yi gripped the sword with both hands, the sword was covered with a dark red layer, like a flame flying through the sky, "To kill you, one swing is enough!"
Such strong sword qi!
Such imposing manner!
As if it was able to break through everything!
Chu Tian disregarded the vigorous sword qi in front of him, his eyes flashed a sharp glint, every one of his words fell as heavily as a gold bar and he fiercely laughed, "Ha, ha, ha, ha! This is your so called secret skill? Good! I'll give you a chance! Old me will stand here and let you cut him once!"
The audience was scared!
Standing still to let him chop? How arrogant!
While Chu Tian was talking the starlight suddenly increased in splendor, rising again to cover his body. At this time, Chu Yi was holding a long ranged sword attack, a great pressure covered Chu Tian's body.
This move again?
Chu Yi coldly laughed in his heart!
After a series of probing attempts, Chu Yi had already grasped the strength of the starlight!
Sword user, sincerity was strength, this was the key of the Soul Sword Secret Art!
Chu Yi was confident, his sword would cut through. With the power of his faith, this one move would become even stronger!
Over the years, he had fought with many geniuses!
Under same level circumstances, who could block this attack and withdraw with his body intact? What kind of thing was Chu Tian? A trivial 8th Body Refinement Cultivator!
Die!
Die!
Chu Yi shot out all his strength.
The minute the red glow almost came in contact with his body, Chu Tian's starlight suddenly gathered, just like glittering translucent glass, it uniformly covered his entire body.
Chu Tian exclaimed , "Scram!"
The sword qi surged to cut!
The ground split inch by inch!
A resounding sound rang out!
The treasured sword cracked!
Instead Chu Yi was launched back about 10 meters!
The sword broke?
The shocking sword attack had not taken Chu Tian's life, but instead the sword had broken!
Meng Qingwu, Meng Yingying, Nangong Yun, Xiong Tianyan, and Zhang Liqing all showed an excited expression, was this the strength of the Starlight Immortal Body?
Such abnormal defensive power!
Although they already knew the cultivation technique Chu Tian taught them was not weak, they never thought its strength would be so formidable!
Chu Tian let out a long breath, "The Chu Family's secret sword art, is only so so."
The transparent layer gathered around his body, like glittering starlight crystals, slowly started to disperse!
On this topic, he truly had to thank Chu Yi, if not for his help, Chu Tian would never have reached gained knowledge on the Glass Body Realm. Currently Chu Tian had not reached the small achievement realm, but he was not far off.
The residual sword qi in the area, all disappeared. The starlight covered Chu Tian, looked like a formidable deity.
He let Chu Yi feel despair!
He lost!
He had also lost!
Chu Yi's peak 9th Layer Body Refinement cultivation, adding in the Chu Family's"Soul Sword Secret Art", he still could not defeat a single injured Chu Tian!
Chu Yi's full strength sword swing, upon hitting Chu Tian's body, his treasured sword was the one that broke!
There was a huge disparity in the strength of both sides!
It was almost impossible to imagine!
Chu Tian held his hands behind his back and coldly said, "The three opportunities have passed, do you have anything else to say?"
Chu Yi was angry out of shame, "Go die!"
Chu Yi suddenly sprang, from his hands he threw 4-5 Talismans, each Talisman was inscribed with a different symbol. Wind blade, fire ball, poison cloud, all shot towards Chu Tian.
Chu Yi also seized the opportunity to draw a dagger.
This dagger's edge was completely green, it clearly was a poisonous weapon. Like a sinister poisonous snake, it fiercely pierced toward Chu Tian's chest.
Countless sword qi condensed together to form a large sword above.
A single collective sword qi shot forward!
Just like an abnormal phenomenon!
Chu Tian felt a strong sense of crisis, this sword was clearly more lethal, the short period of Glass Body had already completely drained Chu Tian's spirit energy, Chu Tian had no method of defending against something of this intensity again!
If this strike went through, Chu Tian would be in danger!
Everyone started to loudly curse.
What Chu Yi was doing was too despicable!
He couldn't win against Chu Tian, so he had decided to rely on underhanded tricks!
"Too slow!"
Chu Tian opened his Mind's Eye, clearly seeing the distribution of spirit energy on Chu Yi's body. With a pair of pincer like claws, he gripped onto Chu Yi's arm, holding onto the spirit energy's weak points. His ten fingers shot out spirit energy sealing the meridians in the arm and then forcefully twisted.
Kacha!
Chu Yi's right arm broke and he sent out a pitiful and sad cry, "You win! You win! I admit defeat!"
Chu Tian coldly said, "Don't you think admitting defeat now is a little too late?"
"I am the fourth elder's son! You dare to kill me?"
Chu Tian raised the green dagger and stabbed directly into Chu Yi's heart.
Chu Yi eyes were still staring as he fell backwards. Twitching a few times before he stopped moving.
Dead!
Chapter 60: A large harves
The area was dead silent, countless gazes stared at Chu Tian, everything else in the world disappeared, only this miracle youth remained!
Li Changyun was half crippled and expelled!
Luo Yuanshan was struck by lightning and killed!
Chu Yi was killed by Chu Tian on the spot!
Three fights three victories, crisp wins and no suspense, each win was also unexpected!
Every competition, no one believed in Chu Tian.
Every outcome, shocked everyone present!
Chu Tian was crazy, he was so crazy no one could break him, no one could solve him, how many people in this world could achieve this? This was a genuine talented youth! This was a hot blooded man!
A person that was crazy to this extent, he could no longer be called arrogant.
It was self confidence, a strong undefeatable self confidence!
Would a dragon flying through the nine heavens be humble to ants?
Ye Xiong spread the news through the town to try to get the public's support, dragging Chu Tian into hell, forever bringing shame upon himself, forever drowning in ten thousand people's hate.
Who knew he would be lifting a large stone to drop on his own foot!
Everyone now knew the Ye Family's true colours.
Ye Xiong actually brought shame and ruin upon himself!
Nangong Yi found it hard to keep in his excitement as he announced for everyone, "Chu Tian is a genius of our South Sky City! Who dares call Chu Tian incompetent! Who dares insult Chu Tian's birth! Who dares slander Chu Tian!"
"Chu Tian!"
"Chu Tian!"
"Those that slander Chu Tian, they will suffer what they deserve!"
Everyone seemed to have been infected by pride as they loudly shouted out, their cries were like a tsunami.
Nangong Yi let out a disgusted breath as he glowered at the crowd and said, "What kind of people are you? Weren't you just screaming that you wanted to cut Chu Tian into a thousand pieces? You still dare say this kind of things!"
Finished!
Completely finished!
Once again they were completely defeated!
Du Zhentian had a very awkward expression, after thinking for a few minutes, he suddenly seemed to have made a decision and stood up to walk away.
Chu Tian saw him walking away and coldly smiled as he asked, "Family Head Du Zhentian does not seemed convinced, so does he want to challenge me again?"
Stop joking!
Learning from other's mistake wasn't miserable enough?
One brought shame and ruin upon himself, was half crippled and expelled from the city. Another one was killed on the spot, without even a complete corpse left behind. The last one had an overwhelming advantage, but was hit with Chu Tian's counterattack and died with regret!
Was this not a painful enough lesson?
Did he have to go through it again?
Moreover, the three competitions were over, even if he won against Chu Tian now, did it mean anything? Chu Tian with his own power, completely turned the tide, and overwhelmingly counterattacked them.
Du Zhentian felt as if his face had been fiercely slapped!
He had already became a pig head!
His prestige had fell on the floor!
He had lost all his face!
This was a serious loss!
He had become a small villain who framed a genius!
If he knew about this earlier, even if you killed him, Du Zhentian would not have entered these turbid waters!
"Young master Chu…...You've completely misunderstood!" Du Zhentian was the rudder guiding the Du Family, his skin had to be thick, the Du Family did not have a backer, they did have a main family in Central State like the Ye Family!
They could not fight anymore!
They truly could not fight like this anymore!
Du Zhentian endured his pain as he took out a contract book, "Young master Chu is truly a god given talent, he stole this from others? It was Du that was mislead by these people's evil words, he believed this lie and had eyes but could not see your excellence. In order to apologize, this is the contract book for my Du Family's mold printing factory, I ask young master Chu to accept it!"
This contract book for a factory worth 1000000 gold coins was meekly handed over!
This was simply cutting into the meat!
Du Zhentian just two days ago had a sinister face as he discussed how to get rid of Chu Tian with Ye Xiong. Now it was good, his face had changed as he openly admitted defeat to Chu Tian.
This was an expert submitting!
He was also forced to do so.
"Du Family head's memory is not so good, this factory was something that I won! It already belonged to me! Fuck you for taking my belonging and using it to apologize to me, there is not a single person in this world that's like you!"
"This, this..."
Du Zhentian had an awkward expression.
"When we were on the summit arena, you tried to hack me in half, this matter I hope sir Du has not forgotten?" Chu Tian snorted and said, "With my temperament, those that want to kill me, I won't let them live."
"If you have words, nicely say them!" Du Zhentian wiped away his sweat, "Du will clear up the misunderstanding with the media personally and I will compensate for young master Chu's lost prestige. I will prepare a generous gift and visit Miracle Commerce to apologize, is that good enough?"
"Not enough!"
"Du is willing to give up all his personal property to make up for his mistakes!"
This Du Zhentian truly had courage!
Chu Tian could not help but be impressed.
Instead of an extra enemy he prefered having one less and he was getting a bargain out of it!
"Alright, since you are so sincere, I won't argue with you! But if you let me discover you stepping out of bounds even a little, then I will be ruthless!"
Du Zhentian nodded his head, "I don't dare, I don't dare!"
The Du Family was still one of the large families of South Sky City, but now they were no different that an obedient grandson!
Ye Xiong could no longer tolerate it as he said, "Du Zhentian, do you not want face anymore!"
"The Du Family is only a small family, we can't compare to the large influence of the Ye Family." Du Zhentian let out a long sigh and he coldly looked at Ye Xiong, although he had resentment for Chu Tian, if it wasn't for this fellow to instigate him, he would not have participated in this matter today. Today the losses of the Du Family were all caused by this idiot, "I hope you change before it's too late, stop pursuing this foolish matter!"
The Ye Family was isolated and cut off from help.
"Leave!"
Ye Xiong whipped his sleeve as he angrily left.
The farce that disturbed the entire city, the curtains had finally dropped.
Ye Xiong collaborated with 3 large families, but he still couldn't do anything to Chu Tian. Instead he helped raise Chu Tian's prestige and gave him many benefits!
Li Changyun had abdicated.
The Alchemy Master Guild Chairman position, the only qualified person left was Xiong Tianyan!
Chu Tian had gained 500000 gold coins and a well equipped factory, and the entire fortune of Du Zhentian!
This, Du Zhentian hurriedly leaving was to remove all the valuable things as fast as possible!
Would Chu Tian this kind of time?
Du Zhentian had only returned, he did not have the time to move anything yet. Chu Tian had already brought Nangong Yun and Zhang Liqing to immediately confiscate his family's property!
There was no choice.
He could only give up!
Chu Tian had sent Meng Yingying, Meng Qingwu, Nangong Yun and Xiong Tianyan, "Carefully search through these houses, as long as you discover anything valuable, even if it is a chamber pot, bring it to me!"
They were excited as the passionately started the big search.
Du Zhentian's mansion was turned upside down!
In the end, the only things of value were Crystal Stones, Beast Cores, liquid medicine, and pills, the total valuation was several hundred thousand gold coins. There were also several crystal stone cards with gold coins deposited, the deposited cash was as high as several hundred thousand!
These were easily convertible assets, the total calculation for it, there was around 1000000 gold coins!
What did 1000000 coins count for?
Southern Cloud Commerce's entire assets did not even add up to that much money!
And there were still the rare treasures, luxury goods, etc. The value was a bad estimate and it definitely wouldn't be lower.
Xiong Tianyan excitedly walked out, "Three Lives Demonic Insects! Three Lives Demonic Insects! We unexpectedly uncovered 200 Three Lives Demonic Insects!
Three Lives Demonic Insects?
Wasn't this the main ingredient for refining Qi Training Pills?
This medicine was incredibly rare, there were only a few that appeared in the South Sky City market, but they had unexpectedly uncovered several hundred in the Du Family manor.
Chu Tian was very satisfied, "With these Three Lives Demonic Insects, we can refine several hundred Qi Training Pills, perfect for when we open Southern Cloud Medicine Shop! Lao Xiong you did a great job, you've done a great merit, when we get back I have to properly reward you!"
Xiong Tianyan revealed a face of joy, "Many thanks Chairman!"
Xiong Tianyan was crazy about alchemy, he did not have much interest in money, he was infatuated with alchemy, if he had the chance to receive 1 or 2 high level refining methods from Chu Tian, that for him was the greatest honour!
Nangong Yun ran out from the backyard, "Boss, I found three white rhinoceros carriages in the stable, they are too attractive, can I borrow one to test it out!"
"It's yours!" Chu Tian was very generous, "Give the other two to Yingying and little miss!"
Meng Yingying was beaming with joy, "I always wanted a good carriage, but I never had the money to buy one, I never thought I would get a premade one."
Meng Qingwu's lips broke out in a smile.
The white rhinoceros was a very beautiful demon beast, jade like body, snow white colour, it was especially suitable for females. Each white rhinoceros carriage would cost over 10000 gold coins, Meng Qingwu could not bare to by it!
Anyway she didn't need money!
This fellow's belongings, she could just keep it for herself!
Chu Tian widely waved his hands, "Search! Continue to search! Today the boss is in a good mood, whatever you find, you can keep 10% of it!"
As soon as everyone heard these words.
The fervently surged forward, their eyes were red with excitement.
Before long, Meng Yingying with a small red face came running out with a head of sweat, "Chu Tian, Chu Tian, I found an underground storage space inside, there are many jewels there!"
Chu Tian nodded his head, "Load it up and take it away!"
Meng Yingying loudly shouted, "Yes!"
Du Zhentian was about to cry!
It was truly a massive bleeding!
Although this was Du Zhentian's personal property, it was still the savings from several years. These people acting like bandits, taking everything of value from the house!
The inlaid gems on the bed were all pulled out!
The things they plundered were all put in Chu Tian bronze ox cart, unexpectedly it was filled to the brim!
Chu Tian sized up Du Zhentian, then doubtfully asked, "Your Du Family has been in Sout Sky City for several decades, you're one of the richest families, you as the head of household no matter what should have several million in assets, why is there so little? Are you hiding some assets from us?
Du Zhen Tian almost spat out blood, then he plainly stated, "None, everything is here!"
None?
You think I'm stupid!
Who would put everything they own in their house?
Chu Tian did not really care since he already had such a big harvest, Du Zhentian no matter what was still a well known person, he couldn't force him too much, so it's better to quit while you're ahead!
"Our past grudges, with this it's all written off!
"I still have to say, if I find out your Du Family is still secretly plotting, I will not forgive you so easily!"
Du Zhentian also released a sigh of relief!
From now on, if they saw a member of Miracle Commerce, the Du Family would firmly avoid them!
Chu Tian drove the cart full of loot back, when he opened the cart, all kinds of treasures spilled out, they were enough to make a person doubt their own eyes!
"Good!"
"Very good!"
"Finally escaped from poverty!"
Chu Tian laughed with satisfaction.
Yingying Hot Pot City could make several tens of thousands of gold coins per day, but what use was that? It still wasn't enough to cover Chu Tian's training expenses.
This was good!
Luo Yuanshan's crystal card with 500000 gold coins deposited.
The assets seized from Du Zhentian's house that was worth more than 1000000 gold coins.
These could be converted into 1500000 gold coins, in South Sky City the people that could take out this kind of money did not surpass 5, even the Mayor's palace would not be able to do this!
Other than that there was still the pile of hard to convert luxury goods!
Moreover he had large quantities of Three Lives Demonic Insects, but that only cost 100-200 gold coins. But if Chu Tian refined them into Qi Training Pills, that would be turning stone into gold instantly, turning them into pills that were worth thousands or even tens of thousands!
When Miracle Commerce is lacking money!
Chu Tian was also lacking funds for training!
This was good, this short period of time he did not have to worry about money!
Chu Tian planned to increase Xiong Tianyan's strength, he planned to help him become an Awakened Soul Cultivator, then he would help him take the position of the Alchemy Master Guild Chairman. Xiong Tianyan's intelligence was originally not bad, but since he was infatuated with studying alchemy, his cultivation base training was very slow. Chu Tian only needed to give him the right supporting formulas and he could certainly succeed!
Ye Xiong's fear was something he couldn't even dream of!
This time not only did he failed to beat Chu Tian, instead he forced Chu Tian to break out in this short time!
Chapter 61: Lying low until the dust settles
After several days, Miracle Commerce had taken over the Du Family's mold printing factory, it was focused on manufacturing lamps, if this factory operated full time, everyday Miracle commerce could produce over ten thousand lamps!
Miracle Commerce's production strength had been increased ten fold!
Meng Qingwu started to buy small factories wantonly and mass buy materials.
Southern Cloud Medicine Shop and Southern Cloud Symbol Shop, were distributed with a large amount of funds and they both began to buy workshops. From the Alchemy Masters Guild and the Symbol Technique Masters Guild, they started to directly recruit talents in preparation of their official opening.
Miracle Commerce had developed a great reputation!
Chu Tian had prestige in South Sky City, even higher than before the storm.
But, Chu Tian was not relaxed, because the real trouble, was just starting!
Nangong Yi personally came to visit, the first sentence he said was, "I got some news, the matter of you killing the Luo Family's elder and the Chu Family's talented offspring, has already been sent to Central State!"
This sentence.
Everyone was shocked!
Nangong Yi seemed extremely anxious, "You putting yourself in the limelight was good, but it caused two parties to bear anger towards you, so the situation has not improved at all, instead it's deteriorating, you better prepare yourself for retaliation at any time!"
Meng Qingwu's umber black eyebrow focused, "These two families are not inferior to the Ye Family, if they collaborate, it will be hard to resist them."
"Elder sister, what are you worried about!" Meng Yingying started to have blind confidence in Chu Tian, "Even if they're stronger, aren't the only Central State City families, they can't possibly have a way to deal with Chu Tian!"
"You can't say for sure." Nangong Yi gently sighed, "Before Chu Tian only had the two families' attention, but he wasn't considered important, he was only a small matter. Now the two families are furious, the situation will not be the same as before!"
What Nangong Yi said was right!
Chu Family, Luo Family, Ye Family.
Central State Four Great Families, which one wasn't like poking a hornet's nest?
If an ordinary person met any of them, they would not be able to bear the consequences!
Chu Tian was a little impolite, he hadn't even gone to Central State yet and he had already stabbed all three!
These three families were not jokes, they had established statuses. Many Awakened Soul Cultivators, it could be said they had experts like the rolling clouds. Moreover, it was a spear to the back was hard to guard, if they sent assassins to kill him, it would be difficult for Chu Tian to escape.
The three Great Families could use the excuse of dealing with Chu Tian to suppress the business of Miracle Commerce.
To the newly established Miracle Commerce, this a large test.
"I'll send a letter to the family and try to ask them to send people over." Nangong Yi said this and paused, "But the Imperial City is several thousand li away and Central State is only a thousand li away, in the end water far away can not put out nearby fires!"
Nangong Yun knit her brows and said, "Then what do we do! We can't just sit here waiting for death!"
Meng Qingwu gave a suggestion, "We can hide Chu Tian away, like this we can avoid most of the intense confrontation, even if they want to retaliate, they can't find the person anyway."
Nangong Yi was still the Mayor, his foundation was not unstable, under the pressure of Three Great Families, if they chose frontal confrontation, then he might be included in it.
If he could avoid direct confrontation with the Three Great Families.
Protecting Miracle Commerce.
Protecting Meng Qingwu and Meng Yingying.
Nangong Yi was confident in achieving.
Everyone was thinking of a way to help Chu Tian solve his problem!
Chu Tian gave a long yawn from the side, like he was about to fall asleep from listening, "Little miss, didn't you help me get a black market pass? I want to go for a stroll in the black market, see if their are any useful resources, hide away for a while, what do you think?"
Nangong Yi was surprised, "You want to go to the black market?"
Meng Qingwu quickly said, "You can't!"
Meng Qingwu explained, "If you stay in South Sky City, we can still protect you, but if you openly leave, wouldn't that be playing into their hands? Everything in South Sky City, there is nothing the Ye Family does not know, if you leave South Sky City, it's impossible they won't know!"
Chu Tian laughed, "How can this trouble me? Wait a few minutes for me, I'll go and be right back!"
What kind of medicine did Chu Tian eat?
After a few minutes.
A blue robed youth hurried in, "Little Lu Ren, greets you all."
Who was this?
This person was less than 20 years old, big eyes bushy brows, a plain face, not a single special feature. He was simply an extremely normal person, if lost in a crowd, no one would pay him any attention.
He really had a good name!
He completely fit the name "passerby"!
Meng Yingying walked in front of Lu Ren, staring at him for a while, pinching his cheeks, pulling his hair, finally showing a panicked expression, "You…..You are Chu Tian?"
Chu Tian laughed, "Looks like my disguise technique is not bad!"
Regardless of height, build, features, even his voice, everything had changed, he was a completely different person!
Did such an amazing disguise technique exist?
Nangong Yun thought this was unbelievable, "How did you do this?"
Chu Tian smiled and said, "Nothing but some medicine and adding in an exclusive disguise technique, next time I have a chance I'll teach it to you!"
This time if they walked out, there would be no one that could recognize Chu Tian!
They let the Mayor arrange a suitable identity for him.
Turning him into a completely different person!
Chu Tian stared at everyone's surprised expression, please with himself he said, "You have to remember, I am called Lu Ren, I am a rogue cultivator. I've obtained the black market pass by accident, so I decided to participate and try my luck! I don't know you and have no relations with Miracle Commerce!
High levelled!
Truly high levelled!
Like this he could truly deceive everyone!
If Chu Tian remained in South Sky City, because he frequently contacts Meng Yingying and Meng Qingwu, he would be seen through. But if Chu Tian left South Sky City, who would know the relation between him and Miracle Commerce?"
"The black market is in the Yin Corpse Valley." Nangong Yi was somewhat afraid of the Yin Corpse valley, "The Yin Corpse Valley is an unlucky place, how much do you know about it?"
What was the black market?
A special market that was outside a normal market!
If foreign merchants want to do business in a city, not only was the procedure very complex, but they also had to pay very high taxes!
The number of commodities was strictly limited to avoid disrupting the local market and harming the local commerces. The number of caravans were also strictly limited to prevent spies, undercover agents, and other people with ill intentions from using the name of merchants to enter in.
Because of all these strict limitation, this gave birth to a black market, beyond the controls of the cities. Each caravan could bring their goods, if you want to enter you enter, if you want to leave you leave, there were no limitations and no taxes.
The local treasures that were either stolen, robbed, or inconvenient to bring into the city, were all brought to the black market to sell.
Gradually.
The black market grew to the size it was now!
Because the kingdom would frequently try to suppress it, no one dared to construct a black market in an open place, so the majority of black markets were built in unvisited places, sometimes even in dangerous places.
The Yin Corpse Valley was one of those places.
Nangong Yi simply introduced, "The Yin Corpse Valley is one of the Central State well known dangers, it was said that 5000-6000 years ago, it was the headquarters of a formidable evil sect, no one knows how it suddenly vanished. However, there are deadly traps all over the Yin Corpse Valley, it is a very dangerous place."
The black market was unexpectedly established in the ruins of an ancient sect?
Chu Tian was very interested!
Nangong Yi continued saying, "What the Yin Corpse Valley is most well known for are its Yin Corpses, it is said that people that die in the Yin Corpse Valley, their bodies do not rot for 10 years, because they absorb the Yin energy, ultimately turning into Yin Corpses."
"It sounds quite frightening!" Meng Yingying showed an expression of fear, "Are Yin Corpses that strong?"
"Although the were once human, they have already turned into monsters, long have they lost their human instincts, their nature is savage!" Nangong Yi continued, "The Yin Corpses cannot be considered living beings, their lifespan is infinite, the longer the live, they stronger they become!"
Nangong Yi explained, "Ten Year Old Yin Corpses have a cultivation 1st Body Refinement Layer, with its invulnerability, infinite strength, and poison, its strength is not inferior to a 2nd or 3rd layer Body Refinement Cultivator. Then, after each 10 years is a single layer increase, Twenty Year Old Yin Corpses have a cultivation of 2nd Body Refinement Layer, Thirty Year Old Yin Corpses have a cultivation of 3rd Body Refinement Layer!"
"The Yin Corpse Valley has a history of thousands of years, there are many hundred year corpses, there are even some thousand year corpses!"
Meng Qingwu knit her umber brows.
People only knew the mysterious black market existed, they never knew the black market was so dangerous.
Chu Tian could not bring a guard, he could only go alone to this monstrous region where Yin Corpses run wild, how could anyone feel comforted by this?
Yin Corpses?
This was a little interesting!
Chu Tian was not even the least bit afraid, "These kinds of things, I already know, you guys just relax, I have my ways to deal with them!"
He originally wanted to go to the black market to test his luck.
This was not only a black market, at the same time it was also the ruin of an ancient sect.
This kind of opportunity containing place, if Chu Tian did not have a look, how could that be acceptable?
Nangong Yi saw that there was no way to convince Chu Tian, he could only give up. Chu Tian was resourceful, although he was a little crazy, but he was not stupid, he should understand what discretion was.
The black market camp in the Yin Corpse Valley, there shouldn't be any strong Yin Corpses that show up there/
Chu Tian prepared for two days in South Sky City, bringing along a bunch of talismans, a few bottles of medicine and pills, he looked exactly like a rogue cultivator.
Cash?
He would first bring 500000 gold coins!
Turning them all into gold coin cards, each card had 10000 gold coins!
This money wouldn't be used for sure, because Chu Tian had heard from Nangong Yi, foreign merchants would not necessarily accept the kingdom's gold coins, but it was better to be prepared, he couldn't bring too little.
The preparations were finished.
Chu Tian openly left South Sky City.
Travelling all the way north.
Chu Tian had been travelling a few days.
Finally arriving in a small town named "Black Stone Town".
Black Stone Town was the closest small town to the Yin Corpse Valley, the town's population was less than 100000, half of them were non-native populates, if they weren't large family disciples coming to the Yin Corpse Valley for experience, then they were either merchants or rogue cultivators here to try their luck.
Chu Tian with his disguise, walking in the crowd not sticking out, strolled through Black Stone Town, while asking for news about the Yin Corpse Valley.
"Selling elixirs, herbal medicines that were just dug!'
"Selling beast cores, high quality best cores!"
"Just released black goods, you must come take a look!"
"..."
Black Stone Town was not a black market, it was just a small town with many small merchant.
A small faraway town, many foreign populace, so the management was not strict and business was free. There were many goods that had been stolen, but if one was patient enough, perhaps they would find some kind of treasure.
"The latest news!"
"The latest news!"
"The caravans of the Great Zhou Black Moon Sect has just entered the black market, they've brought many herbs, equipment and cultivation techniques to sell on the black market!"
"They do not want the kingdom's gold coins, they only want corpse cores! As long as you have enough corpse cores, you can trade for anything you want!"
Once this news came.
Everyone was shocked!
This country was called the Southern Summer Country and was only a small country. The Great Zhou Country was also a country, but it was a large country, its populace and influence was far from what the Southern Summer Country could compare with!
It a Great Zhou Country Sect brought goods over to Southern Summer Counter, even if they were common goods in the Great Zhou Country, they would still be rare goods that anyone from the Southern Summer Country would want!
Chu Tian was very excited.
He had to go to the black market as fast as possible.
But entering the black market was not as simple as it seemed!
The terrain of the Yin Corpse Valley was rough with many forbidden traps, it wasn't guaranteed that you'd get out in 8-10 days and there were many dangers. So it was necessary to find a guide, or perhaps someone that knew the terrain very well.
But where could he find one?
Chapter 62: Hunting and killing Yin Corpses
Black Stone Town center, cultivator gathering, noises all around.
Once the news of the Great Zhou Country caravan came, everyone wanted to seize this opportunity, seizing some cultivation resources from a large nation's sect.
The Yin Corpses were very fierce, it was too dangerous to hunt them alone.
So rogue cultivators temporarily formed teams.
Like this they would stand a chance.
"Is Young Lady Cai Die recruiting members?"
"Although she is a newcomer, with Young Lady Cai Die's strength and appearance, her reputation is already not small! Now they have a spot open, do you guys want to go and try out?"
"Are you stupid? They are all abnormal, all four of them are at the 9th Body Refinement Layer, with your 7th layer Body Refinement cultivation, are you looking to be laughed at?"
"Shh! Be quiet! Don't you see Ding Feng is here? Do you dare compete with him?"
The originally eager cultivators backed off in fright.
A girl and two man stood in an open area.
The girl had a delicate long sword on her back, wearing a rainbow place dress, gentle temperament, solemn and gentle. Although she couldn't be considered extremely beautiful, her eyes were bright and had a special flavour to them, she was a very attractive woman.
To her left was a strong robust man, he held a giant war hammer. To her right was a dark skinned thin youth, he had two short swords and on his back was a long bow.
The rainbow clothed girl said to everyone, "Our team is lacking one person, we are looking for someone with a 9th layer Body Refinement cultivation!"
This phrase.
Everyone couldn't help sighing.
How many people in Black Stone Town had a cultivation of 9th Body Refinement Layer?
The rainbow clothed girl then said, "We are looking for corpse cores in the valley, the distribution will be even, is there anyone that wants to try?"
Everyone was quiet for a while, then a tall strong man walked out, arrogantly saying, "Since these useless things do not have any balls, then why not just give this last spot to me, Ding Feng!"
"Is he Black Iron Palm Ding Feng?"
"His Black Iron Strong Palm Technique is incredibly strong!"
"Yeah, let's not fight him!"
The crowd was full of discussion, everyone was afraid of this man.
Cai Die could feel Ding Feng's strong aura, her heart knew this was an expert, but still she gave an exploratory shout, "Is there anyone else who wants to try? Here we talk with strength, whoever is the strongest is the one we'll choose, is there anyone who wants to try?"
Dian Feng crossed his arms in front of him, his face full of arrogance, "Young miss Cai Die, do you think that there is anyone more qualified than me? Instead of wasting time on this pile of trash, we should go and kill some Yin Corpses!"
This sentence enraged many people.
"How arrogant!"
"Let me have a try!"
A large man holding a sabre jumped out, a cold sabre wind flew out, the sabre glow fell down weaving into a flower, aiming right at the top of Ding Feng's head.
"Humph!"
"Such insignificant skill!"
Ding Feng's hands were covered with a metallic glow, a palm hit the sabre's edge, directly causing the iron sabre to bend.
The large man's face filled with panic, "I've lost!"
Hearing this Ding Feng did not stop his hand, his hands shot out at the same time, heavily hitting the man's chest, a clear bone breaking sound could be heard.
The large man was sent flying ten meter away, his chest was caved in, more air was leaving instead of entering, just like he was suffocating, he was afraid he would not be able to live.
"This is the fate of those who challenge me!" Ding Feng coldly smiled as he said, "Who still refuses to accept this? Come out for me!"
The crowd as frightened as the all stepped back, everyone had a face of dread.
"How strong!"
"This is the Black Iron Strong Palm Technique?"
Ding Feng was a very well known Body Refinement rogue cultivator, because of his lucky encounter which let him learn the Black Iron Strong Palm, he had already practiced it to the point, where he could bare handedly fight against sabre edge, this strength was not small.
This person also had a cruel personality, if you knew him, never provoke him.
The large guy was asking for bad luck!
Cai Die was a little disappointed with Ding Feng being so ruthless, it was not a life and death match, was there a need to be so heavy handed?
But Ding Feng's strength, she approved of!
Cai Die's gentle voice sounded out, she did not want anyone else to be injured, "You have a strong palm technique, your cultivation base is also at 9th Body Refinement Layer, completely meets our requirements, we welcome you to our group."
Obtaining the beautiful woman's praise, Ding Feng was satisfied in his heart, "How could these wastes be qualified to be Young Lady Cai Die's companion? This spot, naturally belongs to me!"
Such wild arrogance!
Ding Feng was strong, people felt indignant but did not dare speak out.
Ding Feng enjoyed this kind of awe, swaggering as he walked over, but from the crowd a soft voice sounded.
"Wait a minute."
A young youth walked out of the crowd, he was less than 20 years old, a mediocre appearance, his eyes were bright and clear.
Ding Feng stopped his steps and turned around, with a black face showing his anger, "Little brat, do you know the consequences of making me wait?"
Shit.
This asshole was truly arrogant!
Chu Tian knit his brows and clearly said to him, "I think I'm more suited to join this team, so I'll have to ask you to leave!"
Wasn't this seeking death?
A young teenager dared to say these kinds of words in front of Dian Feng!
This youth was too impulsive, completely enraging Dian Feng, Cai Die with good intent tried to persuade him, "This little brother, we are only looking for experts of the 9th Body Refinement Layer, your cultivation does not seem weak, but you are still a bit from the 9th Body Refinement Layer….."
"Didn't you say before, here we talk with strength!" Chu Tian's turned and he strongly said, "I think that here, I am the strongest!"
Everyone held in a cold breath.
The robust man with the hammers beside Cai Die broke out in a smile, "This little brat is a little interesting!"
"You dare to be this wild in front of me?" Dian Feng breathing became heavy, his eyes became sinister and frightening, "I don't know if I should admire you courage or your stupidity…..Since you're looking to die, then I'll just help you!"
His hands were covered in a black metallic gloss!
Dang!
The Black Iron Strong Palms fell upon the youth's body!
The youth's body let out a clear ringing sound, Ding Feng's palms had not landed on his body, rather a large ancient bell.
"Scram!"
Chu Tian's body flashed with starlight.
"Wa!"
Ding Feng pitifully called out as he flew for several feet, he had received internal injuries, both arms had been fractured, this scene made everyone feel shock!
Ding Feng's palm strength was this surprising? His full strength palm had hit the youth's body, but instead of killing the youth, he had been sent flying with internal injuries!
Chu Tian from beginning to end had not looked at Ding Feng, his body was covered with the splendor of stars, arriving in front of the rainbow clothed lady, "I am Lu Ren!"
Bystander?
What kind of weird name was this?
Cai Die found it hard to cover up her panic, "You should have practiced a strong defense cultivation technique, perhaps you've already reached the large success boundary? You can resist the attack of higher levels, you are incredibly fierce! Completely qualified to join us!
Large success boundary?
That's strange!
Chu Tian's «Starlight Immortal Body» had not even reached the small success boundary yet, but this shocking matter, it was better to keep in his heart.
In the Central State area where had this kind of person come from, why had they never heard of him before?
This kind of ancient defense cultivation technique, they've never heard about it from their elders!
"I'm called Cai Die, this giant is called Xiang Hu, this stuffy gourd is called Di Jian!"
Cai Die was probably over 20 years old, she was a temperamental beauty.
Yi?
Chu Tian stared at Cai Die's face for over two seconds, before revealing a pondering smiling face.
This woman was wearing a disguise, but the method compared to his, it fell far too short!
Perhaps this Cai Die was disfigured?
Did she disguise herself to become beautiful?
Chu Tian secretly stated his criticisms in his heart, but did not have the interest to pursue this matter, "Didn't you say you had five people? There's still a person missing!"
"The other person is called Bai Zimo, he has been to the black market several times, so he is familiar with the terrain, his cultivation base is also the highest, he is already at the peak 9th Body Refinement Layer! He is one of Central State's well known geniuses, he can fight skip levels and fight people, just like you!"
"Let's go, we'll go see him."
The small town entrance.
Bai Zimo was wearing a magnificent white silk gown, a long sword with an inlaid gem on the handle was around his back, wearing a jade crown, his skin was fair and clear, you can tell from his appearance, he was far from what a rogue cultivator looked like, he seemed like one of the large families' junior.
Bai Zimo was impatient from waiting, "Why are you guys so slow!"
"What are you guys doing!" Once he saw the young Chu Tian, Bai Zimo knit his brows and a look of disgust appeared on his face, "I let you find a helper, how come you came back with this trash!"
"He doesn't even have a 9th layer Body Refinement cultivation, he'll only hold us back! This kind of waste is better not to have! Let him leave immediately!"
In this world, strength was respected.
Bai Zimo's tone was this rampant, but he was still justified.
Cai Die had an awkward expression, "Zimo, don't be angry, little brother Lu Ren is a bit young, his cultivation is a little weak, but his battle strength is not lacking. He practices a special set of body cultivation technique, even Ding Feng's Black Iron Strong Palm could not break it!"
Xiang Hu's tall stature walked up, "Brother Bai, we personally saw it, Ding Feng thrust out a palm, little brother did not dodge, he used his defense cultivation technique to injure Ding Feng!"
"Humph is that so? If you say it like this, Ding Feng was a disappointment to his name!"
Bai Zimo said this, but in his heart he felt fear and envy.
This boy could hurt Dian Feng like this, in just another few years he would not be any worse than himself!
Bai Zimo was not satisfied in his heart, "Alright, since that is the case, in a worst case scenario you can be our meat shield."
"Let's go!" Bai Zimo turned around without looking at Chu Tian, "We have to get to the black market before night!"
Cai Die busily advised Chu Tian as she said, "His personality is like this, don't mind it!"
Xiang Hu also tried to comfort him, "That's right, not only is Bai Zimo's cultivation high, his family members are in high positions in the black market. His birth was good, his strength is good, him becoming arrogant is normal. It's said, he's been to the black market several times, with him leading the way, we can avoid the dangerous areas, definitely be able to arrive peacefully."
Chu Tian slightly nodded his head.
He didn't really mind that much.
Being rampant is fine, but he had to have self knowledge, he had to have basic principles!
Bai Zi Mo's manner was truly arrogant, but his mouth was just a little mean, Chu Tian's mouth was worthwhile to point out, was just like a life and death struggle.
Cai Die, Xiang Hu, and Di Jian, the three of them were at the 9th Body Refinement Layer.
Bai Zimo was at the peak 9th Body Refinement Layer.
Only Chu Tian was at the peak 8th Body Refinement Layer.
However the so called genius Bai Zimo, his strength was only at the same level as Chu Yi, although he would be a little difficult to deal with, Chu Tian did not put him in his eyes.
Outside Black Stone Town, a wasteland of dead trees, deadly silent and dilapidated, a lifeless picture.
The silent short youth Di Jian, began to talk for the first time,
"Everyone be careful, there are several Yin Corpses in front!"
The cultivation technique he practiced was special, it gave him strong detection abilities, when Yin Corpses appear nearby, he could always find them before the others.
From the stone rubble, out came several man shaped monsters, their body covered with a dark qi, the looked absolutely terrifying.
Their bodies did not have any moisture, just like dry withered corpses, their bodies were covered in white fur, they had sharp jet black nails, a pair of demonic green eyes, their faces were distorted not single bit resembling a human.
This was a Yin Corpse?
The Yin Corpse's cultivation could be determined from the color of the hair on the body, the hair was born from the Yin qi the corpses absorbed, Body Refinement Realm Yin Corpses had white hair, Awakened Soul Realm Yin Corpses had black hair.
Some people had once said they saw a blood coloured Yin Corpse, of course this was just a rumor, black Yin Corpses were already several hundred years old, a blood Yin Corpse would be at least a thousand years old, if a blood Yin Corpse appeared, not to say the black market or Black Stone Town, all the surrounding towns would be in trouble!
"Judging by its Yin Qi, the most it can be is 30-40 years old!"
"Alright let's move!"
