140-149

Soon Chen Xiaong saw a very high giant mountain in front of him with a spiral road leading to the top. At the peak, there were many jade cards. To his surprise, there were tens of thousands of jade cards, completely covering the flat peak.

In just half an hour or so, Chen Xiang had arrived at the peak. He picked up a jade card before quickly returning to the Extreme Martial Sect. He just instantly obtained a hundred True Elemental Dan and a hundred thousand crystal stones so easily, and when he thought about the whole situation, he found it funny.

On his way down, Chen Xiang didn't forget to infuriate that rushing and profusely sweating crowd of people below him. Of course, he was once again cursed loudly by many of them, and there were also many things thrown at him, but just like before, none of it hit him.

After an hour or so, Chen Xiang returned to the Extreme Martial Sect and handed over the jade card to Wu Kaiming.

Chen Xiang grinned and said, "I didn't cheat!"

"You brat, you're very cunning!" Wu Kaiming said with a bitter smile. At this time on the square, only Yun Xiaodao, Zhu Rong and Xu Weilong were waiting for Chen Xiang's return.

Chen Xiang's way of winning got him cursed, but he had truly not broken any rules. The only thing that could be said was that the race rules weren't perfect, after all, the Extreme Martial Sect's old codger simply had not expected a Mortal Martial Realm disciple to have True Qi Wings, a type of extremely rare and powerful martial skill. Since Chen Xiang's return, all the way to his participation in the Extreme Martial Grand Tournament, no one had thought of his True Qi wings.

Wu Kaiming gave Chen Xiang a jade box filled with True Qi Dan along with a storage pouch filled with a hundred thousand crystal stones. However, Chen Xiang was not planning to take the heat and give it all to Zhu Rong. This is what he owed for getting those Building Foundations Dans, a hundred True Elemental Dan worth five hundred thousand crystal stones along with another hundred thousand crystal stones. All in all, he now paid back the six hundred thousand crystal stones to Zhu Rong, clearing his entire debt.

"Younger brother Chen, isn't it your turn now to take us out for a treat?" Zhu Rong said with sinister laugh.

Chen Xiang scoffed and retorted, "Fatty, I think it should rightfully be your treat. After all, my hard-earned reward is all in your hands."

Yun Xiaodao and the others stared at Chen Xiang with contempt in their eyes, you dare call this hard earned? This was simply playing with them, those who were actually working hard were still on the road. Everybody reckoned Chen Xiang had just woken up and came here to participate.

After talking some nonsense with Yun Xiaodao and the group for a while, Chen Xiang returned to the Extreme Dan King Courtyard and irrigated the Azure Profound Tree. He also noticed that Wu Qianqian and Elder Dan weren't here.

These days, Chen Xiang also got notifications from Icewind Valley and the Divine Weapon Heavenly Empire, saying they were still undergoing training so he was unable to contact either Xue Xianxian or Leng Youlan.

For a very long time, Xue Xianxian had entered the True Martial Realm. Chen Xiang had decided he would look for her after he had achieved the True Martial Realm, however, he was still unable to contact her and this made him very worried.

The race had finally ended. When they returned, many people laid down from exhaustion in the square. Some could still stand and they were all cursing Chen Xiang. Actually, curses were filling the entire Extreme Martial Sect because Chen Xiang easily got first place. He didn't even have to expend as much force as he needed to blow off some soot yet he got such a huge reward, who would not envy him to death?

Chen Xiang was currently resting in the Extreme Dan King Courtyard and preparing for the Alchemy Competition which was going to be held tomorrow. Only a few people had actually signed up for the event because there were not that many alchemists in the Extreme Martial Sect. Moreover, the sect lacked resources and one had to bring their own herbs in the Alchemy Competition. Some Alchemists believed that refining dans during the competition would affect their own performance so they didn't bother signing up.

Even if alchemists wanted to participate in the alchemy competition, they would have to be non-True Disciples, so it was almost impossible for anyone to be in the True Martial Realm. It could be said that Chen Xiang had no pressure at all.

Knock knock knock!

Wu Qianqian lightly knocked on Chen Xiang's door, waking him up. Inside the Extreme Dan King Courtyard, Chen Xiang was very relaxed unlike when he was outside where his nerves were taut every second, every minute of the day.

Chen Xiang released his divine sense and felt a familiar and peculiar flame aura, he instantly recognized it was Wu Qianqian. However, it was currently the middle of the night and a girl was knocking on a man's door. More or less, this situation made Chen Xiang's mind wander in a perverted direction.

Chen Xiang got out of the bed and opened the door.

"Qianqian, what's the matter?" Chen Xiang asked. Besides the start of the Grand Tournament when he saw Wu Qianqian, he hadn't seen her or Elder Dan around and had no clue where they both disappeared to.

"Can we talk?" Wu Qianqian's mouth curved up slightly, revealing an enchanting, tender, and beautiful smile. At the moment, she became even more confident, and the previous sadness had now vanished, it was clear that she had gotten over her previous depressing mood.

Chen Xiang was also happy for her. If possible, he didn't want this beautiful girl with a promising future to be ruined just because of some fleeting feelings.

"Of course!" Chen Xiang laughed.

Currently, Wu Qianqian wore a very simple dress with a loose and casual white skirt. Her hair was bundled into a ponytail and there was no makeup on her face, just her natural beauty. Her entire appearance was very beautiful and moving, Chen Xiang's young blood was boiling from the mature fragrance wafting from her body.

"Chen Xiang, I'm leaving the Extreme Martial Sect with the Dean tomorrow. I'm sorry I can't watch tomorrow's competition, please forgive me." Wu Qianqian's face was full of helplessness, "I really wanted to see your performance in the Grand Tournament."

Chen Xiang smiled, "That's nothing, since the Dean is taking you away from the Extreme Martial Sect, it must naturally be pretty important, don't miss this opportunity! There will be plenty of opportunities to watch me competing in the future, maybe there will be a chance for us to participate in various competition together and win glory for the Extreme Martial Sect."

There were a lot of competitions held just for the sake of sects competing with one another.

Thinking about this point, the pretty white face of Wu Qianqian's had a hint of red afterglow. In her heart she was slightly excited just imagining it.

"En. Chen Xiang, I learned from Elder Dan that you will have to face a powerful adversary tomorrow. It's rumored that this man is just a hair's breadth away from the True Martial Realm and he is definitely a Level-3 Alchemist." Wu Qianqian said.

Chen Xiang nodded his head, "I'll pay attention. Anyway, where will the Dean take you?"

Wu Qianqian wrinkled her brows and after considering for a moment, she replied, "It's not only me and the Dean, Yun Xiaodao, Zhu Rong and Xu Weilong are also coming with us. This is because we are the youngest True Martial Realm martial artists of the Extreme Martial Sect. It seems that the Dean wants to discuss something with the other sects considering the Dean is taking us to a gathering of young True Martial Realm martial artists of other sects."

"So that's the case." Chen Xiang also wanted to go, but he was still participating in the Grand Tournament.

Wu Qianqian suddenly whispered, "Chen Xiang, I heard that you and Leng Youlan are sworn brother and sister. In that case, can't you also take me as your sworn sister?... I just want to stay by your side."

Wu Qianqian's face was very red, when she looked at Chen Xiang, her eyes were filled with anticipation. She knew that Xue Xianxian was Chen Xiang's fiancee. Wu Qianqian felt that she didn't stand a chance, but she still wanted to be together with Chen Xiang. She could only think of this method to stay by his side.

Chen Xiang stared at her blankly and extended his hands, touching Wu Qianqian's beautiful face. This action made Wu Qianqian feel very sweet in her heart. At the same time, she was also looking forward to something. She hung her head, waiting for Chen Xiang's answer!

Just as Chen Xiang was about to say something, the naughty little dragoness attached to his body imitated his voice and hurriedly replied, "I don't want you to be my sister, I want you to become my woman!"

I'm finished! These words immediately popped out in Chen Xiang's mind. He could not wait to strangle this naughty dragoness! Always at the most crucial moments, she would say something extremely terrible!

Chen Xiang's reply made Wu Qianqian's tender body fiercely shake. She looked up at Chen Xiang, with a trace of surprise and excitement in her eyes. However, her mind was still doubtful, she felt like it was not Chen Xiang who spoke.

"It's late, I have to go!" Wu Qianqian smiled sweetly, stood up and walked away.

Chen Xiang was muddle-headed and distractedly sat in his room. How was he going to explain? He simply could not explain. He felt like he was going to explode.

Long Xueyi started laughing mischievously, seeing Chen Xian's bitted gourd face, her laugh became even more haughty. As of this moment, Chen Xiang just wanted to spank her ass to the point where blooming flowers would be seen all over her ass.

[TLN: This was hard to TL, blooming flower means, when you spank the ass, a red imprint of hand is left, and it looks like a blooming flower. And obviously this part was the hardest. :)]

"Little Dragon, I've decided to keep you hungry for eight to ten days!" Chen Xiang spoke as he suppressed his anger in his heart and clenched his teeth.

"Don't, I was just joking. Besides, you are a bad guy, a womanizer. I only said what you have in you heart, and didn't you see how happy Wu Qianqian was? It's like having it both ways!" Long Xueyi proudly said.

Fortunately, this Long Xueyi had only done mischief in front of Wu Qianqian and Hua Xiangyue, if she did it in front of Elder Dan or some other powerful figure, even if Chen Xiang had ten lives, they would never be enough, he would certainly be dead.

Chen Xiang didn't understand why this little dragon less than one year old was so weird, she actually had the mind of an adult.

The next day, during the Alchemy Competition, as much as a hundred people had signed up for the competition, and the competition rules were very strict. Also, the participants had to refine dans in front of many people, so it required a certain courage and conviction to do so.

Generally, alchemists refine dans in their own private room, which was very quiet without any distractions, however, today's competition was under everyone's presence on a high stage. This required a certain mental endurance. Besides, the surroundings was very noisy, which could very well affect their performance, but this could test an alchemist's level.

Today, fewer people were in the square, but the square was still full. After all, it was still a competition, whoever came to watch were very lively. Besides, many of them had heard Chen Xiang was going to participate in this competition too, they had decided to harass him during the competition from the stands, so that he would be unable to refine dans with a calm heart.

Chen Xiang had not seen Yun Xiaodao and the others, Dean Gu Dongchen was also not present, this made Chen Xiang secretly despise Zhu Rong and the others. They didn't even think of greeting him before going, while Wu Qianqian had actually told him, a person who didn't have much of an interaction with him. This made him feel warmth in his heart, regarding Wu Qianqian, his heart didn't reject this ranked one beauty, in his heart, he liked a her a little.

The whole Alchemy Competition was supervised by Elder Dan, her flaming eyes were looking downwards, and many alchemist felt a chill running down their spines. Regarding Elder Dan, this mysterious temperamental woman, there was not a single soul who didn't fear her. If Elder Dan was angry, they had learned their lesson from watching Chen Xiang.

Although Elder Dan was dead set against Chen Xiang, Chen Xiang was staying in Extreme Dan King Courtyard. Many people thought Elder Dan intentionally made him go there, so that she could more straightforwardly deal with him.

"Chen Xiang, why is the growth rate of the Azure Profound Tree so fast? It is far more than what I had anticipated." Elder Dan's voice, as if it was travelling through a silk thread, reached Chen Xiang's ear.

"I don't know, but no matter how fast it is growing, it has no relation with you, that was planted by me." Chen Xiang responded similarly, and a proud smile was hanging on his face.

"Humph, what are you going to do with so many Azure Profound Fruit? You don't even know how to refine a Building Foundation Dan!" Elder Dan coldly retorted.

"Can't I just eat them? That thing is mine, what I want to do, it's none of your business?!" Chen Xiang laughed and said, seeing Elder Dan's whole body slightly tremble in anger, he was delighted in his heart, the corners of his mouth slightly rose, he was filled with pride.

"Alchemy Competition starts, if anyone was found cheating or violating the rules, they will certainly be expelled from the Extreme Martial Sect, quickly select your location!" Elder Dan coldly shouted, her penetrating and majestic voice made everyone's body shiver, the entire square immediately quieted down.

Chen Xiang was just about to choose a location but suddenly, he heard Elder Dan spoke, "Chen Xiang you refine dan beside me, you're crafty, I'm worried you will be using some means invisible to the naked eye to cheat, I want to see how you refine!"

For others to refine dan, in the middle of the square, a huge high stage was erected, and Elder Dan stood on a high stage at a distance, this made participants relatively relaxed. If Elder Dan was near them, even breathing was very difficult for them, because everyone was fearful of Elder Dan.

Chen Xiang let out a light snort, he wasn't fearful of Elder Dan. After all, she was his martial niece, and she had already supervised him before while he was refining the True Qi Dan.

At this time, a man who was approximately twenty years old or so with a somewhat juvenile aura walked towards the high stage of Elder Dan, this made everyone surprised. Although this man's face was filled with arrogance, the white jade card on his waist made many of them dumbfounded!

Everyone immediately realized the identity of this man

"Isn't he the Level-3 young Alchemist from Lu Family of the Herb King Mountain? I remember his name is Lu Zhengnan, at such a young age, he is already in the True Martial Realm and also a Level-3 Alchemist. It seems in the future he will become an outstanding figure who would be capable of controlling a region with just his name." An old man said.

Chen Xiang also had heard of this man from Wu Qianqian last night, he had also heard of Lu Family of the Herb King Mountain, it was a family controlling a large number of herbs, they even had the Azure Profound Fruit, but they would not sell it. There were also many strong martial artists in Lu Family, rumor was there was also a Nirvana Realm old codger in the Lu Family.

"Disciple Lu Zhengnan greets Elder Dan!" Lu Zhengnan respectfully gave a salute to Elder Dan, but he still had a look of pride.

"Is there anything you want to do?" Elder Dan, seeing that dirty look of Lu Zhengnan, made her furious in her heart, but she didn't attack him. She felt Chen Xiang was more amiable than this Lu Zhengnan.

"Disciple has entered the True Martial Realm last night, but I know True Martial Realm disciples cannot participate in the Grand Tournament, however, I would still like to participate, because I want to compete with Chen Xiang." Lu Zhengnan looked at Chen Xiang, his eyes filled with an aggressive aura and contempt. As if to say, "I'm now a Level-3 alchemist, and also in the True Martial realm, you are far worse than me!'

Chen Xiang secretly sighed, although he admitted this Lu Zhengnan's talent was good, he was still too inexperienced. He could already foresee that this Lu Zhengnan would be in a complete mess after being defeated.

But in other disciples' opinion, this was an explosive information, Lu Zhengnan had actually entered the True Martial Realm, he was just twenty-one years old. Although he was two years older than Yun Xiaodao, Lu Zhengnan was still an alchemist. Because of that, everyone believed Lu Zhengnan was more talented than Yun Xiaodao.

"If it's just the alchemy, it is nothing. I'll allow you to participate in this competition. However, if it is martial art competition, you should already know the answer!" Elder Dan spoke and dismissed him, she just wanted to take a look whether Chen Xiang would be able to defeat Lu Zhengnan or not.

Chen Xiang laughed and said, "Brother Lu is a rare genius born once in thousand year, it's my pleasure to compete with you. Since brother Lu came for me, then I will gamble a little, might as well enliven the atmosphere!"

Chen Xiang was going to bet once again, last time, he won a True Martial Realm apprentice and the qualifications to enter the Extreme Dan King Courtyard. This time, what would he place as ante?

Elder Dan also felt it was very interesting, although she was against Chen Xiang at every step, she was also concerned about Chen Xiang. Once she came out from her closed-door training, she first inquired about Chen Xiang and what he had done, and Chen Xiang had not let her down, he created a lot of noise.

"Wishing for it earnestly!" Lu Zhengnan proudly smiled, even if Chen Xiang hadn't mentioned it, he would have still suggested it himself. He was a True Martial Realm martial artist, and also a Level-3 Alchemist, he got certified from the Danxiang Tower, that represents a very high honor.

"Since you proposed to bet first, what do you want to bet?" Lu Zhengnan asked, he knew Chen Xiang had a good amount of resources, the ante would certainly be enough to shock everyone. However, he was not worried, he thought he could win.

Every gambler would always think so.

Chen Xiang faintly smiled, turned over his palm, and three dan shining brightly in azure and golden aura were sandwiched between his fingers.

Chen Xiang actually used three Building Foundation Dans he himself refined as an ante!

"Three Building Foundations Dans, are you betting or not?" Chen Xiang asked. "Whoever has the higher ranking than the other in the competition wins!"

Just a moment ago, those three Building Foundation Dans were blinding to the eyes of others, yet he called them just a little bet!?

For all of them, it was difficult to even see a Building Foundation Dan in their entire lifetime, meanwhile Chen Xiang actually took out three Building Foundation Dans at once for the ante. This was simply being extremely prodigal to actually take out these kind of things for a mere bet, many of the people were cursing Chen Xiang.

Elder Dan was also stunned, she immediately transmitted to Chen Xiang, "Where did you get these?"

At the same time, Lu Zhengnan also asked, "Where did you get these Building Foundation Dans?"

If Chen Xiang himself refined these dans, then Lu Zhengnan would bet jack shit.

"It's none of your business where I got these from, do you dare to bet or not? Let it be if you are not betting." Chen Xiang dismissively said. Careful people could see that out of these three Building Foundation Dans, two of them were relatively dark in color, while the other one was relatively more lustrous.

Of course, no one thought that Chen Xiang was the one who refined these Building Foundation Dans, even Elder Dan believed it was impossible for him. In her opinion, it was still too early for Chen Xiang, not to mention he didn't even have a Fire Spirit.

"It doesn't even matter don't bet if you can't!" Chen Xiang retrieved the Building Foundation Dans with a look of disappointment.

Lu Zhengnan being unable to bet? This would not only make him lose face within the sect but he would also be ridiculed in the entire Lu Family. He firmly replied, "I currently don't have the Building Foundation Dans, but if I lose, within ten days, I will definitely give you three Building Foundation Dans!"

Chen Xiang had three Building Foundation Dans but he had not taken any. Everybody was assuming that Chen Xiang had prepared these for entering the True Martial Realm. Many people were extremely envious of Chen Xiang. After all, he could actually get three Building Foundation Dans just for preparation, everyone could already foresee Chen Xiang becoming a True Martial Realm martial artist in the near future.

Those older alchemists on the competition stage could only secretly sigh in their heart. They didn't have such a good fate, but they didn't think they would lose to these two younglings in alchemy techniques.

Regarding the origin of Chen Xiang's Building Foundation Dans, no one was that curious. Chen Xiang had simply not revealed how he got it, even if it was Elder Dan who was asking. He deliberately did so in order to make Elder Dan depressed.

The Alchemy Competition was very comprehensive, all of the participants needed to refine from a list of relatively common dans, while the highest ranking one would be able to refine in the competition was a High-Grade Spirit Level Dan. However, most participants were only able to refine to the Middle-Grade Spirit Level Dans. Lu Zhengnan easily fulfilled this because Level-3 Alchemist needed to refine three different types of Middle-Grade Spirit Level Dans.

In the first competition, participants had to refine Low-Grade Mortal Level Quenching Body Dan within half an hour !

In blink of an eye, half an hour passed. The first to successfully finish refinement was Lu Zhengnan, while Chen Xiang intentionally slowed down. He only opened the alchemical furnace near the end of time limit. He did so in order for Lu Zhengnan to underestimate his opponent, besides, it would also save his consumption and be a lot easier too.

Elder Dan intentionally glared at Chen Xiang with one eye. Chen Xiang was easily able to refine the Low-Grade Spirit Level True Qi Dan, not to mention this kind of low-grade dan.

In the first competition, five participants failed to meet the criteria and they quietly left.

In the second competition, participants were needed to refine a Middle-Grade Mortal Level Baptizing Marrow Dan, and in third competition a High-Grade Mortal Level Grand Elemental Dan. For both competitions, the participants were given a time limit of half an hour to complete the dan!

In both competitions Lu Zhengnan was first to open his alchemical furnace, while Chen Xiang still always opened the lid at the very end, this made Lu Zhengnan secretly proud in his heart.

After the two competitions, only sixty participants were left on the stage!

It was already noon, but the competition continued. There was rarely any time to rest, this was as much a test of endurance of the alchemists as it was their skill. As a result, the audience also had to suffer as they continued to wait for the result. However, there were still those who became impatient and left early.

In the fourth competition, it was the Low-Grade Spirit Level True Qi Dan, and it had to be completed within an hour!

This was very demanding for the alchemists under the True Martial Realm. There were lot of people who couldn't refine and they soon left the stage. There were also some who didn't prepare the herbs, but most of the participants thought they would fail to meet the requirements anyway.

In addition to Chen Xiang, there were only fifteen alchemists left!

In Chen Xiang's opinion, the True Qi Dan was still very common for him. After all, he would usually refine them in bulk for Long Xueyi, this greedy little dragon, to eat them like jelly beans. However, he still intentionally slowed himself down and opened the alchemical furnace near the end of time limit. Lu Zhengnan continued to remain high-profile, every time he was the first to open the alchemical furnace, and the quality was also not that bad.

Time was up, and now there were only eight alchemists left standing and soon the participants were narrowed down to only seven. Elder Dan nodded her head in satisfaction form this result,. Aside from Chen Xiang and Lu Zhengnan, five other Mortal Martial Realm alchemists were able to refine the True Qi Dan within an hour. This was lot better than the previous competition, although the age of these five alchemists were nowhere near small number.

It was soon afternoon, the sun was burning in the sky, but now it was also the tense final moments of the Alchemy Competition.

"This is the final competition, everyone is free to refine whatever they want! The time allotted is four hours. You can refine the most high-grade dan possible for your skill level, whoever's dan is ranked higher in the end will win! You can also refine different types of dans to improve your odds of winning." Elder Dan shouted.

Lu Zhengnan slightly upturned his mouth, because he knew he would undoubtedly win this competition due to the fact he was the only Level-3 Alchemist. He was able to refine three different types of Middle-Grade Spirit Level Dans. He didn't think Chen Xiang or other alchemists could even refine a single Middle-Grade Spirit Level Dan, and Lu Zhengnan was confident within four hours he would be able to refine all three dans.

Chen Xiang looked at Lu Zhengnan with a smile, saying, "Brother Lu, you're looking very confident. It's obvious that you're sure you will win, then how about we add a little more to the bet?"

Chen Xiang actually wanted to raise the stakes at this moment. Suddenly, the bored audience acted like they were injected with chicken's blood. Add even more to ante, whoever won, wouldn't it be turned into a giant profit?

[TLN: Injected with chicken's blood, meaning energetic.]

Many people in the audience were discussing with their gambling friends about increment in the stakes. Most of them had also gambled a little, however the majority of them had placed their bets on Lu Zhengnan. After all, on his waist the Level-3 Alchemist's jade card was hanging, showing his very prestigious position and held the strength that accompanied the title.

Elder Dan looked at the slightly smiling Chen Xiang and knew that Lu Zhengnan had ran out of luck today. Last time she had also lost to Chen Xiang, but she just had to let Chen Xiang enter the Extreme Dan King Courtyard.

Whenever gamblers thought they would certainly win, they would always increase the stakes, perhaps even putting all of their possessions on the line to pressure their opponents. Chen Xiang and Lu Zhengnan were now both in the same mindset, both of them thought they would certainly win, which is why neither of them hesitated to increase the stakes.

"You can take out any amount, I will match it" Lu Zhengnan declared, his face was filled with confidence. Meanwhile, the other alchemists had already started refining their own dans, they didn't accompany these two madmen in their insanity.

"I heard your Herb King Mountain has a Nine Sun Flames Fruit..." Chen Xiang mischievously laughed, "If I take out this Hell Spirit Grass, are you willing to use Nine Sun Flames Fruit as the ante?"

Once the black Hell Spirit Grass appeared, the audience went into an uproar. Although it was only palm sized, this herb was still incredibly precious because it was a sacred herb which could even raise the dead.

The Nine Sun Flames Fruit was also a precious High-Grade Profound Level fire attribute herb, that was mainly used to refine the High-Grade Profound Level Profound Sun Fire Dan. The Profound Sun Fire Dan had a very good effect and could allow one to continually elevate their flames quality. It was very helpful for upgrading the flames of alchemists. Many people only knew about this usage, but Su Meiyao had told Chen Xiang that this Profound Sun Fire Dan was the best dan to feed a Fire Spirit.

Chen Xiang was currently unable to use it, but he would definitely need it in the future. According to Su Meiyao, if one wanted to easily walk down the road of alchemy, possessing a Fire Spirit was a must!

"Good, I'll bet!" Lu Zhengnan said while clenching his teeth .

"I fear brother Lu can't take this responsibility. After all, it is a very valuable herb to Lu Family." Chen Xiang said with a worried look. If the Lu Family refused to hand it over, though he had no way to make them pay, the Lu Family would have to carry the title of people who would not pay up their debts.

"I can!" Lu Zhengnan responded seriously .

Chen Xiang smiled and nodded his head. His smile was cold and sinister. If the Lu Family did not pay up, he would make their public image change drastically!

Chen Xiang finally began taking things seriously. Elder Dan carefully checked his alchemical furnace just in case he wanted to cheat. At this time, the entire crowd was looking at these two young alchemists very seriously.

Everyone thought that Chen Xiang's odds to win were a bit low. First off, Chen Xiang was refining under the strict supervision of Elder Dan, adding on additional pressure. Secondly, Chen Xiang didn't have a backer or any support like the Lu Family, an alchemy aristocratic family with many rich resources. Lastly, Chen Xiang didn't have an alchemist jade card on his waist.

Chen Xiang started processing the herbs. According to the rules, the herbs must be processed during the competition and if they were pre-processed, it would be considered a violation of the rules.

Elder Dan was staring closely at Chen Xiang. After she saw him take out a white grass, she was very shocked in her heart!

This white grass looked very similar to a white bone in form, and was also crystal clear with no blemishes. It was white like beautiful jade, this was the White Jade Bone Grass, the primary herb for refining the White Jade Dan!

The White Jade Dan was a High-Grade Spirit Level Dan and was on the same level as the True Elemental Dan. Ordinarily, only a Level-4 Alchemist was able to refine this sort of Dan and there were only a total of ten Level-4 Alchemist in the entire Extreme Dan Courtyard of the Extreme Martial Sect. In fact, the low number of alchemists resulted in the Extreme Martial Sect's supply of True Elemental Dan being very lacking so they had to buy them from Danxiang Taoyuan. Thankfully, Danxiang Taiyuan gave very low prices towards the Extreme Martial Sect as a result of the good relations between the two.

Elder Dan secretly despised Chen Xiang's actions, he actually revealed nothing, even to her! He was acting like a pig to eat the tiger. From the instant she saw Chen Xiang take out the herbs for refining a White Jade Dan she knew that Lu Zhengnan had no chance of winning.

"Don't you think what you're doing is shameless?" Elder Dan transmitted to Chen Xiang.

"Nah, we mutually agreed for this bet, not to mention the fact we are gambling, everything is fair and square. I'm just too lazy to boast about what high ranking dans I can refine. It was simply failure in his part for underestimating me. If he was not so arrogant and didn't care so much about face, he definitely would not have lost so badly." Chen Xiang said with a mischievous smirk.

"Humph." Elder Dan let a cold snort but she was unable to say anything. She just felt that Chen Xiang was too crafty and she decided to take special notice of this particular characteristic of his from this point on in order to avoid getting sold by Chen Xiang while helping him count the money.

Lu Zhengnan was far left from Chen Xiang's stage and couldn't see what type of dan he was refining. Either way, Lu Zhengnan would never pay attention to it anyway and he concentrated on his own alchemy. However, Chen Xiang noticed that Lu Zhengnan took out the materials for a Middle-Grade Spirit Level Martial Elemental Dan.

Chen Xiang placed his own herbs in the Brilliant Flame Dragon Furnace before pouring in a white spiritual essence. This was another primary resource required for refining the White Jade Dan. On one side, he was leisurely refining the White Jade Dan while on the other side he was processing the materials for yet another dan.

"Xuan Zhen Grass, Ten Thousand Year Old Spirit Fruit, Spirit Crystal Essence, and Grand Elemental Nut. It seems like you already know how to refine the True Elemental Dan!" Elder Dan took a deep breath and her voice was full of surprise. She had not expected that in just a span of three years since she had not seen Chen Xiang his alchemical skills would advance to such a level!

Chen Xiang could actually refine two different types of High-Grade Spirit Level Dans!

"Littler martial niece, I cannot just casually become your martial uncle. I also have a bit of foundation." Chen Xiang proudly smiled and replied.

"In other words, you are a Level-4 Alchemist?" Elder Dan was scared for a moment and asked.

"Of course, but that Jade card was a little big and the words written on it were a bit too bloody, making the whole thing somewhat ugly. That's why I don't like hanging it on my waist like Lu Zhengnan." Chen Xiang smiled and said.

Just twenty years old and a Level-4 Alchemist! Even if Elder Dan knew how hateful Chen Xiang was, she could not help but admire him. She was totally left speechless.. She didn't know what to say?

"Elder Dan, is there some relation between you and Danxiang Taoyuan's Dean?" Chen Xiang asked. He was also using divine sense to converse with Elder Dan while he was refining the dans.

Elder Dan's body slightly trembled, "I can not answer you!"

"Whatever, sooner or later I'll defeat you and then you will become my woman. At that time I will know everything about you." Chen Xiang said with a nasty laugh.

"Humph!" Elder Dan sneered, "There is still a long way to go. Perhaps at that time I would have already entered the Heavenly Realms!"

Actually, this was highly likely as Elder Dan was in the Nirvana Realm and stood at the peak of the Mortal World. Moreover, she was an alchemistress and could indeed advance very quickly.

Chen Xiang no longer spoke to her, and seriously concentrated on refining the dans.

Four hours, this meant that the competition would continue until night. Now there were only a few gamblers that stayed behind and they had betted quite a few crystal stones and were awaiting the end result.

Chen Xiang didn't want to give a gigantic crippling mental blow to Lu Zhengnan which was why he was intentionally taking a bit longer to refine. Originally it would have just taken him an hour and he could call it a day, but he was worried Lu Zhengnan would not accept it and do something crazy.

"Fortunately you didn't take Wu Qianqian as your apprentice. Otherwise she would have to call me marital grand uncle." Chen Xiang said and smiled. At this time, he was almost done completely refining the two different types of dans.

"Qianqian's talent is very high. I will vigorously cultivate her and definitely make her transcend you! Do not be too proud!" Elder Dan said with full confidence.

"That is for the best."Chen Xiang had an equivocal smile hanging on his face, but the look in his eyes was somewhat complicated.

"Then thank you for cultivating my future wife, Wu Qianqian is destined to be my woman." Long Xueyi again posed as Chen Xiang and transmitted with divine sense to Elder Dan.

A shiver ran down in Chen Xiang's spine, but he couldn't help but admire Long Xueyi for using divine sense so wisely. She could even avoid getting found out by Elder Dan, and also implicate him. He had already exhorted a thousand, no, ten thousand times to this naughty little dragoness not to play a joke in front of Elder Dan, this could be very troublesome.

"What?" Elder Dan voice was extremely cold. She certainly knew about Wu Qianqian's thoughts for Chen Xiang, and also knew that he had greatly helped and encouraged Wu Qianqian, but Elder Dan had not expected Wu Qianqian and Chen Xiang to be together.

"This time around, she went with dean to meet the young heroes of other sect and families. She will definitely change her mind, there are far better men than you!" Elder Dan coldly said.

Chen Xiang was suddenly somewhat dissatisfied, "Really? Wait and see!"

A little less than half an hour was left from the total four hours when Lu Zhengnan stood up with a look of excitement. He laughed loudly and shouted, "Chen Xiang, you lose! I refined three kinds of Middle-Grade Spirit Level Dans!"

A True Martial Realm alchemist who was responsible for supervising the competition nodded his head, "Lu Zhengnan has successfully refined the Melting Poison Dan, the Martial Elemental Dan and the Exploding Qi Dan. All of them are Middle-Grade Spirit Level Dans and their quality is also top grade!"

Although it was midnight, the audience that had been waiting for the results burst into cheers one after another. All of them though Lu Zhengnan would win. At she was able to refine three kinds of Middle-Grade Spirit Level Dans, he was really a Level-3 Alchemist!

Chen Xiang just laughed, "Don't be so happy, I'm not finished with my refining yet!"

"So what? Can you refine four kinds of Middle-Grade Spirit Level Dans?" Lu Zhengnan sneered, he already foresaw himself getting the Hell Spirit Grass and the three Building Foundation Dans.

The four hour duration was finished as Chen Xiang gradually opened his alchemical furnace. He dismissively said, "Refined two kinds of High-Grade Spirit Level Dans, respectively they were the White Jade Dan and the True Elemental Dan!"

The people who originally thought they had won their bets, instantly had their smiles frozen, while those who were upset due to thinking they lost betting on Chen Xiang were also somewhat doubtful if what they heard was true or not!

"Impossible!" Lu Zhengnan immediately yelled.

Chen Xiang stood up and stretched his waist. He looked at Elder Dan because she was the one supervising him and only with her statement would he be able to prove he refined the two High-Grade Spirit Level Dans.

Whether it was the refining difficulty or the price, the two High-Grade Spirit Level Dans were far above the three kinds of Middle-Grade Spirit Level Dans that Lu Zhengnan refined!

Elder Dan stated, "It's true. I personally witnessed the entire refining process. From the processing of the herbs to the solidification of the pill, I saw the entire thing with my own eyes. He did not cheat. Just from the warmth and freshness of the dans, it is clear that they have been refined recently."

Lu Zhengan wrinkled his brows as his complexion became ugly. He quickly went up the stage, some True Martial Realm alchemists also gathered over on the stage. There were many True Martial Realm alchemists who were able to refine one type of High-Grade Spirit Level Dan, but their success rate was extremely low.

A jade box was covered in a crystal clear powder and was still exuding some residual heat. After opening the lid, a rich herb fragrance wafted into everyone's noses. It was a very cool and refreshing scent, this was a genuine high quality White Jade Dan!

In another box, five crystal clear shells were laid, inside of which there was a group of white mist at the center of the dans. This was the True Elemental Dan, and its quality was also very good. But what made people shocked was the fact that Chen Xiang had actually refined five dans at once from just a single set of herbs!

Looking at the fresh dans in both jade boxes, Lu Zhengnan clenched both his fists, his nails deeply embedded into his palm. His whole body was trembling and profusely sweating as he muttered, "Impossible, you can not possibly refine two kinds of High-Grade Spirit Level Dans... Impossible... impossible..."

Not to mention two different types of High-Grade Spirit Level Dans, even if it was just one kind Chen Xiang would still win!

"Do you suspect that I poorly supervised him?" Elder Dan coldly said.

Lu Zhengnan gulped, that previous arrogance of his was blown away to who knows where. He tried to calm himself down, "No...I don't dare to doubt Elder Dan. I just think Chen Xiang had some means to cheat and didn't let you see."

"Exactly! It is impossible for Chen Xiang to refine High-Grade Spirit Level Dans! What would he use to refine? It takes the support of a lot of rare herbs. Not to mention the fact that during his disappearance he was still healing, and the time when he was in the Fragrance City, if he could refine these dans then why didn't he go for the assessment!" Underneath the stage a mad man loudly shouted. Those who had also lost comparatively soon followed him in the shouting.

This was because most people had bet on Lu Zhengnan to win!

Chen Xiang coldly smiled before he went in front of the stage, loudly shouting, "Yes, refining two different types of dans requires a lot of herbs, but don't forget that when I came from the secular world, I already had Metal Spirit Fruit and Thousand Vein Fruit! Furthermore, during the Inner Sect Assessment I had also found a few Azure Profound Fruit. I sold these, and it was enough for me buy a large number of herbs!"

"I was indeed seriously injured by Liao Shaoyun of True Martial Sect, but I was also carrying a few White Jade Dan with me, which allowed me to heal quickly. During the long period of time I was missing, I was mainly learning alchemy! If you don't believe me, you could go to Danxiang Tower and ask Mrs. Li, I purchased a lot of herbs from her!"

Then, Chen Xiang took out a jade card. Above this jade card was four golden stripes, on it's back there were ten signatures carved in blood, this was the proof of a Level-4 Alchemist.

"At that time I went for the assessment. This is my proof!" Chen Xiang raised his hand high to show the jade card. In the middle of the night, those four shinning golden lines representing the Level-4 Alchemist status were glittering like stars, dazzling the eyes of many people...

At this time, the audiences underneath quieted down, a Level-4 Alchemist! Chen Xiang was a little younger than Lu Zhengnan, yet he was already a Level-4 Alchemist! Although Chen Xiang and Lu Zhengnan had a difference of simply one level, this was like the difference between heaven and earth!

Everyone was simultaneously shocked, but they secretly cursed Chen Xiang for being sinister. Even daring to hide in plain sight before just to ruthlessly knock out Lu Zhengnan!

Lu Zhengnan with a shaking finger pointed at Chen Xiang, "You...you actually...actually..."

"Puff"

Lu Zhengnan spewed out a mouthful of blood. He lost very badly, three Building Foundation Dans and a Nine Sun Flames Fruit! This was a very large bet. Previously, he was absolutely sure of his success which is why he dared to bet so much. However, he hadn't even gotten permission from his family to bet the precious herb. He knew that after today, he would be in very big trouble.

"If you suspect even Danxiang Tower's alchemist certification system, then even I don't have any way to convince you! Do you admit defeat or not!? If I don't receive the ante, then don't blame me for doing something!" Chen Xiang coldly declared, "If you can't afford to gamble, then don't carelessly follow up!"

Chen Xiang's ante was his own, but in case of Lu Zhengnan it was his family's. Just from this point alone, the difference between the two of them was clear cut!

Lu Zhengnan stared at Chen Xiang, his eyes were filled with murderous intention. Chen Xiang's complexion suddenly became deadly cold, he clearly knew what Lu Zhengnan had in mind!

If the creditor was dead, then he would not owe any debt!

Although many people in the crowd underneath was thinking of cursing Chen Xiang, they did not dare to do so. After all, he was a Level-4 Alchemist and, aside from him, there were only ten of them present in the entire Extreme Martial Sect. Additionally, all of them supplied resources to Extreme Martial Sect, their identities was very noble. If they, in any way, offended a powerful alchemist, then the consequences would be extremely miserable.

Chen Xiang cultivated [Tai Chi Subduing Dragon Exercise] which was why he was able to restrain his breath. It was also the reason why Elder Dan and Gu Dongchen, these ancient tycoons, were unable to probe Chen Xiang's strength. Originally Elder Dan secretly suspected that Chen Xiang was already in True Martial Realm. However, when she saw three Building Foundation Dan with Chen Xiang, she no longer thought so. She assumed that Chen Xiang had reached a bottleneck.

Lu Zhengnan was violently vomiting blood. This was very rarely seen, it could only be imagined how much hatred he felt towards Chen Xiang. After all, Chen Xiang indeed seized everything very cheaply and easily won so many good things. This could only be blamed on Lu Zhengnan for being too inexperienced. He loved publicizing and the publicity that came with it. He was not enough crafty and low-key like Chen Xiang, the miserable loss was only inevitable.

At the beginning, when Lu Zhengnan revealed his trump card, he was so sure that he was not going to lose, and just followed up when Chen Xiang increased the ante. But in the end Lu Zhengnan suffered a crushing defeat.

"Chen Xiang...wait for me!" Lu Zhengnan viciously roared. He fiercely wiped the blood stain off his mouth and left.

"Hei Hei." Chen Xiang only laughed in response. He casually picked up another hundred True Elemental Dan and a hundred thousand crystal stones from Elder Dan before heading back to the Extreme Dan King Courtyard in a happy mood.

After obtaining the hundred True Elemental Dans, ten of them were immediately taken by Long Xueyi, this greedy little dragoness. This made him feel very sad, but after Long Xueyi took these ten True Elemental Dans, it was very difficult for her to get anymore. Chen Xiang strictly controlled the usage of these True Elemental Dans, they were not like the True Qi Dans which could be easily refined.

Since the start of the Extreme Martial Grand Tournament, two back to back competitions had ended with the grand winner for both competitions being Chen Xiang. Even many of the True Martial Realm disciples were secretly jealous of Chen Xiang because of the things he had obtained. Not to mention the fact that Chen Xiang also possessed at least three Building Foundation Dans which meant that it was very likely for him to enter the True Martial Realm.

What none of them knew was that Chen Xiang had long since become a True Martial Realm martial artist, but hid his own strength mainly out of habit.

The third and final competition was of martial arts, but it was being held ten days later, this was the Dean's declaration. During these ten days, all of the Inner Sect Disciples mutually exchanged pointers. Some of the True Martial Realm disciples publically passed on their experiences and many were taught directly by elders from the Elder Courtyard.

Many True Martial Realm disciples were showing off their strength and powerful divine martial skills for the Grand Tournament, attracting the jealousy of many Mortal Martial Realm disciples. For them, this was also a kind of incentive. Some disciples who rushed about everywhere year in and year out began to take out some strange exotic things to broaden the horizons of the Inner Disciples. There was also someone who stood up on a table, blowed a horn, and then began to speak about his own majestic life experience.

During this period, there were some small scale activities were disciples could win a few dans and crystal stones by using their strength or wisdom. Some examples were answering questions and solving riddles.

On the other hand, Chen Xiang just stayed in the Extreme Dan King Courtyard and used the Dragon Saliva to accelerate the growth of the Azure Profound Tree, thus speeding up the fruits growth. Elder Dan also found out about this and was very suspicious. Although she was very well-informed, she was still unable to understand why the tree's growth was so fast.

Five days passed, the Azure Profound Tree's flowers were already cocooned and were about to congeal the fruit. Chen Xiang secretly sighed in emotion within his heart. He found out that the Azure Profound Tree didn't need the Dragon Saliva for ripening and could grow very quickly on it's own.

"The Azure Profound Tree gathers wood essence to bear fruit. This tree is planted inside the Mysterious Realm, an environment filled to the brim with rich Spirit Qi. The absorption speed of Spirit Qi is very quick, which is probably why it can quickly turn the Spirit Qi into fruit." Su Meiyao said, however these were just her guesses.

The qualifiers had already started a while ago. To be precise in how it worked, many fights were placed on many stages till there were only eight participants were left for the final Martial Art Competition. There were many participants for the Martial Arts Competition and the Inner and Outer Courtyards were assigned to carry out the qualifiers. Each day, there were many people who were eliminated.

In these qualifying stages, almost everyone was afraid of encountering Chen Xiang because he was the No.1 Disciple of the Inner Courtyard, and he had no peers under the True Martial Realm. However, there were also many strong young newcomers who wanted to challenge Chen Xiang.

During these qualifiers, Chen Xiang was really benevolent and used a very gentle way to defeat his opponents. If he found any deficiencies in them, he would pass along one or two pointers. After all, the Grand Tournament was for the disciples to exchange pointers with one another, and so Chen Xiang won the respect of many people.

Chen Xiang had just finished pouring the Dragon Saliva onto the Azure Profound Tree and started to return to his own private room. He swallowed five True Elemental Dans as a large sudden rush of True Qi burst out from within his body. He operated the [Tai Chi Subduing Dragon Exercise] and started refining to transform it into his own True Qi. At last, all of the True Qi had been turned into Divine Sense which poured forth into his consciousness, feeding the Shinto Infant Soul.

According to Long Xueyi, only when this Shinto Infant Soul was a little grown up would he be able to cultivate Shinto.

Unconsciously, Chen Xiang became immersed in the cultivation of the Shinto Infant Soul. With a single-minded attitude, he started congealing a lot of Divine Sense to feed his Infant Soul. Although he didn't eat any more True Elemental Dans, his Yin and Yang Divine Veins were able to absorb a large amount of Spirit Qi to aid in the cultivation process.

Not far away, Elder Dan was standing on a rooftop, looking down upon a private room. This was the location of Chen Xiang's room, she muttered, "It really is a Yin and Yang Vein, only those things have the ability to absorb Spirit Qi at this insane speed. He really is the same as teacher's martial ancestor."

From a long time ago, ever since Chen Xiang began residing in the Extreme Dan Courtyard, he had been closely monitored by Elder Dan. However, Chen Xiang was very cautious and only used Dragon Saliva when no one was in the Extreme Dan Courtyard. He had not seen or caught Elder Dan, but he guessed that she was secretly watching him.

For the past three days, Chen Xiang was endlessly cultivating. His continuous absorption of Spirit Qi had not diminished even the slightest bit, on the contrary it was only growing! This caused many people residing in the Elder Courtyard to become extremely shocked. However, simply due to the fact this unique event was occurring inside the Extreme Dan King Courtyard, no one dared to casually go and check, and only observed the spectacle from far away.

Elder Dan coldly snorted, "Could it be that this brat wants to enter the True Martial Realm? In these last three days he didn't even go out to participate in the qualifiers and lost the qualifications to participate in the Martial Arts Competition. This is extremely unlike him, according to his usual personally, he would have taken first place before attempting to break through."

At this time, Chen Xiang was in a state of forgetting everything around him, ignoring all outside stimuli. He was like a newborn baby sleeping in a mother's womb, who knew nothing but still continued to absorb a large amount of nutrients to grow.

Chen Xiang's consciousness was entirely submerged in the Shinto Infant Soul. He was solely thinking of absorbing a large amount of Divine Sense to grow. Regarding any matters occurring outsider or other disturbances, he had no clue what was going on.

"Elder Sister Meiyao, I tried my best but I still can not wake him up. I think it's best to let him be. If we forcefully wake him up, things could turn out very troublesome." Long Xueyi helplessly said in a sweet voice. She knew that Chen Xiang now had no way to win the hundred True Elemental Dans, due to this she was secretly distressed.

The Martial Art Competition had long ago begun. The Extreme Martial Sect's disciples were very surprised because Chen Xiang was not in any of the final eight locations. Before, many people had assumed that, in light of Chen Xiang's strength, it would be very easy for him to win first place.

After asking about, everyone only came to learn that Chen Xiang had not arrived on time to participate in the qualifiers and was thus eliminated. Furthermore, he had disappeared five days ago.

While Chen Xiang was cultivating, he was extremely pleased with his results because the Shinto Infant Soul had now grown a lot. Previously, it had the appearance of a newborn but now it's appearance was same as that of a six month old baby.

Chen Xiang learned from Long Xueyi that the growth phase of the spirit was very slow. Take Long Xueyi for examples, it took her a total of eight long years before she was finally able to come out of her dragon shell. If she wanted to become an adult, it would take an even longer period of time. However, once she became an adult she would have the strength to disregard everyone and everything in existence.

Chen Xiang finally woke up to the tender and sweet voice of Long Xueyi, which was filled to the brim of anger. "Chen Xiang, you have been asleep for five days! Those hundred True Elemental Dan and hundred thousand crystal stones have all gone down the drain."

"Why did you not wake me up!?" Chen Xiang immediately left the private room and walked towards the Extreme Martial Square, he was very upset in his heart.

"I called you many times, who knew that you would cultivate so earnestly. Next time, do not take all your Divine Sense and stuff it into your Infant Soul, otherwise it wouldn't be strange for you to be asleep for eight to ten years." Long Xueyi seriously told him. Her tone was very solemn, this was because she didn't get to eat anything ever since Chen Xiang fell asleep.

Chen Xiang could not wait to give himself two slaps. His own negligence had caused his removal from the Martial Arts Competition and resulted in the loss of a hundred True Elemental Dan and hundred thousand crystal stones!

He felt like a knife was twisting in his heart.

He arrived in the middle of the square which was surrounded by many people. However, all the disciples of the Extreme Martial Sect had their faces filled with anger. At this time, Chen Xiang saw a few people tumbling down from the martial arts stage not far away from him.

"What happened?" Chen Xiang asked a middle-aged man right beside him.

The middle-aged man after seeing Chen Xiang could not help but be surprised, and others around him were also surprised. Simultaneously, everyone started telling Chen Xiang what had happened in his absence.

Soon, Chen Xiang came to learn what had occurred. He looked towards the high stage at Elder Dan and Wu Kaiming. His pupils fiercely contracted when he came upon a very familiar face. It was a very handsome face, the forehead was giving off a slight aura of arrogance, yet it did not make others feel disgusted.

Seeing this man, Chen Xiang clenched his fists as his nails dug deeply into his palm, this man was Liao Shaoyun!

After coming back from the Fragrance City, he came to learn some things about Liao Shaoyun, the results gave no small surprise to him. Chen Xiang had not expected Liao Shaoyun to actually be an elder of the True Martial Sect. Furthermore, he was also at the verge of becoming the youngest martial artist to enter the Nirvana Realm. With such an amazing talent, he was a very important figure of True Martial Sect.

Today, both the True Martial Sect's and Beast Marital Sect's Elders, along with their sect's disciples, came to participate in the Extreme Martial Sect's Grand Tournament. Furthermore, they also proposed to allow their own sect disciples to learn with the Extreme Martial Sect's disciples before defeating all of them.The disciples sent by the Beast Martial Sect and the True Martial Sect were very strong, all of them suddenly defeated the eight Extreme Martial Sect's disciples that could participate in the final round. Also, they had publicly challenged some disciples in the audiences while some powerful Extreme Martial Sect's disciples at the same time came on the stage, but they were all defeated.

"Elder Wu, my disciples had won against the strongest eight disciples of your Inner Courtyard, shouldn't the hundred True Elemental Dan and hundred thousand crystal stones be given to me for my disciples?" Liao Shaoyun had a faint smile on his face as he asked Wu Kaiming beside him. He intentionally raised his voice, so that the other people could also hear him.

Today, the Beast Martial Sect and the True Martial Sect were simply hitting wherever they went. While most of the strongest disciples of the Extreme Martial Sect had now already entered into the True Martial Realm, such as the four powerful disciples of the first Inner Courtyard, among the four of them, three were now in the True Martial Realm. As for Chen Xiang, he was nowhere to be seen.

"Chen Xiang, go up and teach these guys a good lesson, let them know our Extreme Martial Sect is also formidable."A middle-aged man shouted.

One by one everyone beside Chen Xiang started shouting, Chen Xiang was originally very upset for not being able to participate in the Martial Art Competition. However, now that the opportunity had presented itself, it was very highly likely for him to get those hundred True Elemental Dan and hundred thousand crystal stones.

Of course, Chen Xiang also had to make those two sects who were rampaging wherever they went to suffer a little bit!

Chen Xiang lightly took a leap, stepped on the air just like a beautiful rainbow arc, then landed on the martial arts stage

Long-awaited Chen Xiang was eliminated five days ago, many people were very regretful due to this. However, Chen Xiang had now appeared at the most crucial moment, this made them very excited, many people had personally witnessed Chen Xiang's strength, that was not some ordinary strength. Many of them believed that Chen Xiang would be able fight even those who were at True Martial Realm.

Chen Xiang was now in the True Martial Realm, even if the opponent was someone in 1st level of True Martial Realm, or even the 2nd level, he was not a least bit afraid.

Once he arrived at the stage, Chen Xiang looked at Liao Shaoyun above the high stage not far away from him, both his eyes were overflowing with murderous intention. He would never forget how Liao Shaoyun trampled over him, he had already sworn, he would definitely behead Liao Shaoyun and have his revenge!

When Liao Shaoyun arrived, he already knew what happened to Chen Xiang. Because Chen Xiang was not on time to participate in the qualifiers, he was eliminated, but regarding Chen Xiang, he was just a little concerned about him, he didn't think too much about him. After all, he was someone who was just about to enter the Nirvana Realm, this small ant wasn't able to enter in his eye.

Many people knew of the things between Chen Xiang and Liao Shaoyun, that day Chen Xiang had almost died in the hands of Liao Shaoyun. But now Liao Shaoyun had dared to come to the Extreme Martial Sect, he simply had not placed the Extreme Martial Sect in his eyes.

"I've come to compare notes with them!" Chen Xiang looked at Wu Kaiming and saw him nodding his head, with eyes filled with smile. Now he knew that Chen Xiang had appeared, Extreme Martial Sect would be able to save their face.

"Humph, didn't you not participated in the qualifiers just because of a stage fright? Why have you now appeared to get tortured?" Liao Shaoyun sneered and said, he suddenly found Chen Xiang very hateful, especially the look of hatred in the eyes of Chen Xiang.

"That is because I had to attend some matters temporarily, I'm an Extreme Martial Sect's disciple, don't you want to challenge the Extreme Martial Sect's disciples?" Chen Xiang didn't look at Liao Shaoyun, instead, he faced the two disciples of the Beast Martial Sect and True Martial Sect.

"Whatever, in short, getting injured is inevitable, at that time, don't complain to us." Liao Shaoyun looked at Chen Xiang with a frown, being ignored like this by Chen Xiang, it made him somewhat unhappy in his heart, he certainly knew Chen Xiang hate him to death.

At this time Long Xueyi's said in a tender voice, "These two guys has just entered into the True Martial Realm, their body's have a strange energy in their dantian which is masking off their breath, that's why it is very difficult to see, that thing should be called runes!"

Chen Xiang in his heart was surprised, clenched his fists even more tightly, at the same time he was very excited. Now he knew, why the Beast Martial Sect and True Martial Sect dare to break everything wherever they went, and only sent two people.

These two had hidden their True Martial Realm very well, naturally, they would not have any opponents in the Mortal Martial Realm. However, now they had ran into Chen Xiang, who had also very well hidden his True Martial Realm, and not to mention his strength which was much higher than others of the same level.

Chen Xiang secretly chuckled in his heart, he had extreme hate for both the Beast Martial Sect and the True Martial Sect, and now that these two sect's newly advanced young True Martial Realm disciples had come to compete with him, he would naturally not be any lenient.

"Who is coming first from you?" Chen Xiang asked

"Do you dare to have a life and death fight?" One robust guy looking more like a bull spoke, he was the disciple of the Beast Martial Sect.

If Chen Xiang was killed, he could get the three hundred thousand crystal stones reward. Now that such a good opportunity had presented itself, how could the big guy let it go?

Just as both Elder Dan and Wu Kaiming wanted to open their mouth and stop him, they heard the immediate reply of Chen Xiang's, "Dare? Come if you want to come, let's see who's afraid of who?"

Life and death fight, as long as both side agreed, and if there were a lot of people who could testify, then it can be started. If any of them unfortunately died, the forces behind him could not hold the survivor accountable.

This Beast Martial Sect's disciple was called Niu Hao, with a robust body, he was even a head taller than Chen Xiang. That body looked more like a small giant, his whole body brimming with power, giving off a kind of oppressive feeling.

"Chen Xiang, the runes should be attached at his dantian's location, you should wait for an appropriate moment and burn off that rune. Afterwards, it will allow you to reveal his strength!" Long Xueyi transmitted to Chen Xiang with divine sense.

Spirit Runes did have this kind of benefits, Chen Xiang whenever he could, especially during his idle time, would also study these Spirit Runes. But, he still had no idea, after all, he was trying to grab something in the darkness, without any kind of guidance.

Although both Elder Dan and Wu Kaiming could have prevented this life and death fight, in the end they didn't stop it, both of them knew that the reason why Chen Xiang could become their young martial uncle was certainly because he was someone extraordinary. Besides, they had already seen Chen Xiang's strength, however, they were still somewhat concerned in their heart.

Not to mention the Beast Martial Sect's disciples, even some disciples of the Extreme Martial Sect wanted to kill Chen Xiang. Simply because, Chen Xiang was worth three hundred thousand crystal stones, this sum was very attractive to many.

As Chen Xiang knew the opponent was also in the True Martial Realm, he didn't dare to underestimate the enemy.

"Start!" Wu Kaiming was the one who issued this order. The Beast Martial Sect's and the True Martial Sect's disciples had come and this made him feel very unhappy, but he was still unable to do anything, even if they had been making irresponsible remarks. However, he hadn't expected that two strong and young disciples of the Beast Martial Sect and the True Martial Sect would actually arrive and break the balance.

Once his words had been heard by everyone, Niu Hao fiercely let out a roar, the martial art stage completely constructed from hard-rock severely shook, however, this didn't affect Chen Xiang. At the same time, Chen Xiang also let out a roar. However, his roar was accompanied by a wave of azure and lightning Qi Aura which came out from his mouth, and like a fountain, it rushed towards Niu Hao.

Chen Xiang didn't utilise all of his strength, otherwise, the strength of the True Martial Realm could be revealed. If that happened, Liao Shaoyun and others would be able to see through his strength and that would be very troublesome for him.

Unless he let the other party expose their True Martial Realm strength, only then would Chen Xiang be able to justifiably beat the other person. Even if his True Martial Realm was revealed at that time, it would be nothing.

The azure lightning Qi Aura released from the mouth of Chen Xiang would be fatal to Mortal Martial Realm martial artists, but for Niu Hao, it was nothing. Because he was in the True Martial Realm and with his terrifying strength, he would be able to counteract this kind of power. But he didn't expect Chen Xiang would mix a bunch of powerful flames when he emitted the [Dragon Roar], which in turn, directly struck Niu Hai's dantian's location and burned off his clothes.

Chen Xiang's flames were the Vermillion Bird's flames of the True Martial Realm, it was not something easily extinguishable by an ordinary True Martial Realm martial artist.

Niu Hai was surprised in his his heart as he gathered the True Qi above both of his hands. While he was smacking the flames above his abdomen, he was vigilant against Chen Xiang's attack. However, Chen Xiang didn't have any intention of attacking him.

Flame spread quickly and not long after, Chen Xiang could see those flames suddenly changing the colors, his eyes lit up. He reckoned this was the phenomena due to the burning of the Spirit Runes.

Wu Kaiming brow suddenly wrinkled, because this Niu Hao's body released a very powerful breath, and it was just that only True Martial Realm martial artist should be able to have this kind of breath.

"True Martial Realm!" Elder Dan voice was incomparably cold, as if it came from the ninth level of the Underworld.

The elder of the Beast Martial Sect was suddenly sweating profusely, he could feel the anger of Elder Dan and Wu Kaiming, but this elder could also be counted as an old fogy, he immediately said in a heavy tone, "No wonder this Niu Hao was so confident, originally, he has actually entered the True Martial Realm. Although it is a good thing, but he still hid it from us, after we return, we must impose heavy penalties on him!"

Although the Beast Martial Sect's elder said that they knew nothing about Niu Hao, and everything was the fault of Niu Hao, Elder Dan and Wu Kaiming didn't believe a single word of it.

"Should we stop the contest?" Liao Shaoyun was very calm at this moment as he dismissively said, as if he had nothing to do with all this.

"No need, look at Chen Xiang's appearance, he too hid the matter of him advancing to the True Martial Realm, I think he broke through in these past few days!" Wu Kaiming just faintly smiled, because he could see Chen Xiang intentionally revealed his own strength, both he and Elder Dan were very curious how was Chen Xiang was able to see through Niu Hao's strength.

The whole body of the Beast Martial Sect's elder was trembling, his complexion became pale, with a dignified look, he gazed at the martial art stage. If Chen Xiang had entered the True Martial Realm, then the outcome of this competition would be difficult to predict, furthermore, this was a life and death fight!

"Insignificant skills, go die!" Chen Xiang made Niu Hao choke in rage, he let out a shout, before a golden bull's head suddenly appeared on his thick arms, his Qi Aura was cemented into a lifelike bulls' head, along with a pair of sharp big horns on it.

Although Niu Hao looked very big, his speed was not at all slow, he swiftly and violently waved that giant arms of his and blasted a violent and fierce fist towards Chen Xiang. Just as those bull horns were just about to pierce two holes in Chen Xiang's body, Chen Xiang was suddenly nowhere to be seen!

But everyone could see waves of Chen Xiang's breath spreading from the stage one after another. Chen Xiang, in an extreme speed, was madly rushing on the stage, without releasing a single sound.

Chen Xiang, using high speed movements, escaped Niu Hao's fist, at the same time, he hid his own whereabouts. Although, Niu Hao was able to identify Chen Xiang's location through Cheng Xiang's breath, Chen Xiang was still moving too fast. Suddenly he would be in the left, and in the next instance, he would be in the right, making it harder for Niu Hao to determine from where would Chen Xiang attack.

This kind of speed made Niu Hao secretly astonished. Right now, he also suspected Chen Xiang was also a True Martial Realm martial artist!

Since it was a life and death fight, and the other party too wanted to kill him, Chen Xiang would certainly not stay his hand!

Everyone was calmly looking at the martial art stage, waiting for Chen Xiang to attack. As of this moment, the atmosphere was very depressing because no one knew from which direction Chen Xiang would attack.

Suddenly, Chen Xiang appeared, and Niu Hao too grabbed towards the direction where Chen Xiang came from. Niu Hao quickly turned it into a fist, however, Chen Xiang had still lightly avoided Niu Hao's violent and frightening fist of horned bull's head.

Chen Xiang's palm was like the tip of a spear, wrapped in a thin True Qi, but with quite an overbearing breath, at the same time, he was dodging Niu Hao's fist, his palm that was like the tip of a spear already pierced towards Niu Hao's heart!

[Profound Aura Finger]! Someone with good eyesight would be able to recognize it in a mere glance. With this formidable martial skill, the caster hands would be able to become as sharp as a divine weapon! Last time, Chen Xiang had used this [Profound Aura Finger] to pinch off a few well-known spirit weapons.

Chen Xiang's hand penetrated Niu Hao's body and came out from his back. Afterwards, he fiercely pulled back his hand as he he poised himself to shoot his left arm, then blasted a strike on Niu Hao's dantian.

An explosion burst forth as the whole martial art stage suddenly collapsed, and the stones flew in every direction!

It was actually [Shocking Heaven Palm]! Chen Xiang had spent a lot of power in using this attack, not to mention that he had also struck above Niu Hao's dantian. When he had struck on Niu Hao's dantian, he could feel a large amount of True Qi bursting and spewing out from Niu Hao's dantian.

The dust was blown away by the wind released by Chen Xiang, the martial art stage was already turned into a pile of scattered and broken stones. Niu Hao was constantly throwing up blood, and he had already lost consciousness.

Chen Xiang let out a light shout and landed a kick on Niu Hao's waist. A powerful Qi burst out from his leg before Niu Hao flew towards Liao Shaoyun!

At this time, the whole body of the Beast Martial Sect Elder was trembling, he was checking the extent of Niu Hao's injury. Although Chen Xiang hadn't killed Niu Hao, Niu Hao was crippled, and from head to toe, there was not a single organ left intact in Niu Hao's body.

"I've won against the Beast Martial Sect's disciple, next one should be the True Martial Sect, right?" Chen Xiang, while looking at the delicate and pretty man standing beside Liao Shaoyun, loudly spoke.

At this point, both Elder Dan and Wu Kaiming were certain Chen Xiang had entered the True Martial Realm. Liao Shaoyun and the Beast Martial Sect Elder also had not expected Chen Xiang would actually breakthrough in these short five days. However, Chen Xiang had still not revealed anything, he was letting the True Martial Realm martial artist pose as a Mortal Martial Realm martial artist.

Since Chen Xiang wanted to fight, Liao Shaoyun would also accompany him till the end. He spoke a few words with the delicate and pretty man beside him. Afterwards, Chen Xiang suddenly saw a black crossbow appear in the hands of that delicate and pretty man, this was exactly the Demanding Life Devil Bow which Chen Xiang had obtained previously by killing a man from the Hundred Poison Sect!

Who didn't knew about this matter? Liao Shaoyun had robbed Chen Xiang's spoils of war!

"Life and death fight!" That delicate and pretty man floated and arrived in front of Chen Xiang, his voice was devoid of any emotion.

"Good!" Chen Xiang only looked at that Demanding Life Devil Bow which truly belonged to him, today, he would definitely take it back.

Wu Kaiming calmly said, "Liao Shaoyun, that Demanding Life Devil bow is what Chen Xiang had obtained, why did you seize it from him? After they finish fighting, you need to give me a satisfactory answer, that day, why were you against Chen Xiang, I'll also investigate this matter!"

Liao Shaoyun slightly trembled, that day, he only thought Chen Xiang was merely an ant in the Mortal Martial Realm. If he wanted to kill him, he could kill him without any worry, and the Extreme Martial Sect would not do anything. However, now Chen Xiang had entered the True Martial Realm, and was also a Level-4 alchemist, with such a kind of talent, whichever major sect he went to, he would receive serious attention.

"Young man, do not be crazy! You're still too tender!" Elder Dan coldly said, Chen Xiang was her young martial uncle, obviously, she would help Chen Xiang, even though she and Chen Xiang would not see eye to eye.

The delicate and pretty man grabbing the Demanding Life Devil Bow was called Zhao Cheng, he had recently entered the True Martial Realm. Not too long ago, he had also wounded a few Extreme Martial Sect's disciples, but he actually took out a spirit weapon during a martial art contest, seeing this, many people secretly despised him.

Extreme Martial Sect's disciples still didn't know that the disciples sent by the Beast Martial Sect and the True Martial Sect were pretenders in True Martial Realm. Otherwise, they would have already been drowned in spits and curses.

Liao Shaoyun still believed Chen Xiang hitting Niu Hao and destroying the Spirit Runes for concealing the cultivation which revealed Niu Hao's power level was only accidental. That was why, he didn't worry about anything, as long as Zhao Chen was not found out, he wouldn't have any relation whatsoever.

"Start!" Liao Shaoyun shouted.

Just as his voice fell, a black arrow was suddenly shot from the Demanding Life Devil Bow in the hands of Zhao Cheng. Everyone could see that black arrow shot into Chen Xiang's body. This made the hearts of many people shocked, and everyone thought Chen Xiang was finished!

The black arrow pierced Chen Xiang's body which made it suddenly burst open. In that moment, everyone's mouth was wide open with a look of utter shock on their faces as they stared at the spot where Chen Xiang had been blown away and disappeared!

In Elder Dan's and Wu Kaiming's minds, a thunderous explosion rang. In addition, Elder Dan's body slightly trembled. It was evidently clear that Chen Xiang's death dealt a serious blow to her!

Zhao Cheng also had a proud look on his face. He sneered and said, "Tch, Just so-so!"

Just as he finished speaking, out of nowhere a huge long blade pierced through Zhao Cheng's dantian as Chen Xiang suddenly appeared behind him! At the same time, it also pierced that sheet of spirit runes in front as a terrifying True Qi breath burst out from Zhao Cheng's body.

Just a moment ago, Chen Xiang had quickly used water to create a mirror image, this was the [Water Mirror Technique], part of the [Black Tortoise Divine Exercise]! Then, using high-speed moment while also converging his breath, he quickly moved behind Zhao Cheng. Finally, when Zhao Chen let down his guard, Chen Xiang took out the Azure Dragon Slaughtering Devil Blade and hurled it towards Zhao Cheng's back, piercing his dantian.

Although numerous Extreme Martial Sect disciples were somewhat frustrated, they were completely stunned silent at this moment. They all wanted to know what kind of goddamn technique Chen Xiang used to create such a scene. What, did he have a fucking cloning technique?

Chen Xiang quickly pulled out his blade as a gush of blood started streaming out, just before his fists transformed to look as if they were casted from pure solid gold! A strong oppressive pressure swept through all four directions which made it difficult for everyone to breathe.

[Dragon Aura Fist]! Chen Xiang with his True Marital Realm strength along with the [Tai Chi Subduing Dragon Exercise] finally thoroughly unleashed the potential within this Dragon Martial Technique. He stimulated the oppressive dragon's might to perfection, deterring many people. This kind of mighty pressure made the crowd feel like nothing more than ants before Chen Xiang!

The [Dragon Aura Fist] struck forth like lightning as the land fiercely shook. Chen Xiang's fist completely scattered the True Qi within Zhao Chen's body while also utterly destroyed his Five Zhang and Six Fu! Chen Xiang had once again wasted a True Martial Realm martial artist.

Liao Shaoyun's body slightly trembled, his complexion becoming very ugly. He looked on the Demanding Life Devil Bow which was being taken away, making his heart bleed. Just a moment ago, he gave the Demanding Life Devil Bow to his own apprentice, Zhao Cheng. Yet he had just been wasted by Chen Xiang.

"Chen Xiang has the strength of the True Marital Realm!" A True Martial Realm martial artist exclaimed. Amongst the crowd of onlookers, there were many in the True Marital Realm. Previously, they were still rather doubtful about it, but now they were absolutely certain!

Chen Xiang had enter the True Martial Realm!?

"Did he break through his bottleneck during these last five days!? This is extremely astonishing, not only is he a Level-4 Alchemist, but now he is also a True Martial Realm martial artist!"

"My god, this guy could be considered as one of the most talented practitioners in history. How could he even be put on the same level as Lu Zhengnan, he is nothing compared to Chen Xiang!"

"Twenty years old yet he is already in True Martial Realm! There is only a year age difference between him and Yun Xiaodao, but Chen Xiang is also a Level-4 Alchemist!"

"..."

This astonishing information quickly spread amongst the crowd as the whole square burst into a ruckus. This fact was just truly too shocking, Chen Xiang was actually in the True Martial Realm!

"Niu Hao and Zhao Chen must also be in True Martial Realm, otherwise they would have already been killed! Only a True Martial Realm martial artist could have withstood Chen Xiang's attacks!" Another True Martial Realm's disciple said, his voice was filled with anger.

The True Martial Sect and the Beast Martial Sect's disciples had actually smashed everything in their paths inside the Extreme Martial Sect by relying on the True Martial Realm's strength. They had also injured many Extreme Martial Sect disciples. This was simply cheating, someone in the True Martial Realm fighting with Mortal Martial Realm martial artist, what the hell is this!? It was clear that they were intentionally creating trouble!

Tens of thousands of Extreme Martial Sect's disciples suddenly started cursing the opposing True Martial Realm martial artists, one after the other. They demanded an explanation from the True Martial Sect.

"My three hundred thousand bounty is not that easy to obtain!" Chen Xiang sneered. He then looked at Liao Shaoyun, before shouting, "Both these disciples from the True Martial Sect and the Beast Martial Sect were in the True Martial Realm. It is evidently clear that they intentionally hid their power to create trouble. Elder Wu, Elder Dan, how should we deal with them?"

"True Marital Realm martial artists actually disguised themselves as people in the Mortal Martial realm just to challenge our Extreme Martial Sect's Mortal Martial Realm disciples, injuring many of them! I didn't expect these two 'great' sects to be far more despicable than I thought. I applaud them!"

Chen Xiang's mocking voice spread throughout each and every corner of the Extreme Martial Sect. Everything was heard loud and clear by everybody. All the disciples from the Extreme Martial Sect became furious and started loudly cursing the two sects.

The amiable smile on Elder Wu's face disappeared, turning into an absolutely expressionless look on his face. This kind of appearance was rarely seen on his face, but once it does appear, it was evident something or someone had truly enraged him.

Although Elder Dan had a mask on, the atmosphere around her emitted a strong oppressive pressure. This made everyone in the entire square quiet down. The once calm and quiet Liao Shaoyun was sweating profusely at this moment. Beside him stood two old men, both of whom had entered the Nirvana Realm ages ago. Although Liao Shaoyun was just a hair's breadth away from the Nirvana Realm, he was still just an ant in front of Elder Wu and Elder Dan.

"You had all better give me a good explanation that will make all of my Extreme Martial Sect satisfied... Or else, let your dean come and take you away!" Elder Wu firmly declared with an ice cold voice.

The Beast Martial Sect Elder had not yet entered the Nirvana Realm. His strength was almost same as Liao Shaoyun, they were simply defenseless when facing two genuine Nirvana Realm martial artists!

Suddenly, Chen Xiang took a leap, grabbed Zhao Chen Xiang and leapt back to his previous location.

"Chen Xiang, what are you doing!?" Liao Shaoyun suddenly shouted, his face was burning with anger!

Elder Dan instantly arrived in front of Chen Xiang, due to this Liao Shaoyun's complexion sank.

"I just don't want you to silence him! I want to make him truthfully speak. To explain, just whose plan it was in the end!" Chen Xiang said, Just a moment ago, he could clearly see that Liao Shaoyun was trying to find ways to kill his own disciple, permanently silencing him. Liao Shaoyun was close to the Nirvana Realm, doing this kind of trick was simply too easy for him.

If Liao Shaoyun placed all offense on Zhao Cheng and claimed to kill him in a fit of rage, then all the blame would lie on Zhao Cheng alone. However, if someone had ordered him, then this matter would become very serious...

Following Bai Youyou's method, Chen Xiang placed his hand on Zhao Cheng's head. Afterwards, Chen Xiang manipulated his divine sense to move in a peculiar way and enter inside Zhao Cheng's skull.

"Zhao Cheng, did Liao Shoayun know that you entered the True Martial Realm?" Chen Xiang asked with a sneer.

"He knew." Zhao Cheng replied in a hollow voice.

At that moment, the square was dead silent. Everyone in the square was a martial artist, they all had a very keen hearing, and heard everything loud and clear. This confession made the entire square burst into a commotion!

A simple reply was enough to prove Liao Shaoyun and his group had come to intentionally pick a bone with the Extreme Martial Sect!

"Do you have anything to say?" Elder Wu's voice was filled with anger. He hadn't expected the Beast Martial Sect and True Martial Sect to actually barge into the Sect and bully them in their own home. To actually dare come swaggering into the Extreme Martial Sect and commit such atrocities was simply not placing the Extreme Martial Sect in their eyes!

"Starting today, the Extreme Martial Sect is irreconcilable with the True Martial Sect and the Beast Martial Sect! From this moment forth, start cleaning up the Extreme Martial Province by getting rid of all the Beast Martial Sect and the True Martial Sect's disciples!" Elder Dan loudly shouted. Her voice resounded throughout the Extreme Martial sect accompanied with dense Slaughter Qi, it was pretty clear she was extremely angry in her heart .

"Humph, the Chenwu Mainland First's Sect position should be changed, just you wait!" While speaking, Liao Shaoyun's body gradually started fading away. Instantly, both Wu Kaiming and Elder Dan blasted a palm at the same time. This blow of theirs seemed dull and slow, but after it was unleashed, everything within the radius of a thousand li fiercely shook. All the animals started crying at the same time, it was as if Heaven itself was being trampled and the Earth was on the brink of destruction.

While the entire Extreme Martial Sect fiercely shook, many disciples could not help but feel their legs turning to jelly as they slumped onto the ground. This was exactly the true terrifying strength of the martial artists who stood at the apex of the Mortal Realm!

Chen Xiang also stood among the crowd and was sweating profusely. Although both Elder Dan and Wu Kaiming had acted at the same time, Liao Shaoyun still escaped by unknown means.

"This should be the [Space Divine Martial Skill]! It allows the caster to travel over tens of thousands of Li to escape in a short notice." Wu Kaiming coldly snorted. Afterwards he coldly glared at the Beast Martial Sect Elder.

"Imprison him!" The instant Elder Dan's command came out, nine black silhouettes suddenly appeared around the Beast Martial Sect's Elder. This unexpected appearance of nine people made everyone surprised, they could all clearly feel the terrifying Slaughter Qi being emitted from the stranger's bodies.

Chen Xiang actually retreated a few steps because those nine people gave him a very dangerous feeling. These people were actually dressed the same as Elder Dan. They all wore black robes and had a mask on their face, it was pretty evident that they were Elder Dan's men.

At this moment, Chen Xiang thought he needed to re-evaluate the strength of the Extreme Marital Sect. Their overall strength was not at all as weak as it appeared to be. Not even mentioning the mysterious 0th Martial Courtyard, as well as the always empty 1st Martial Courtyard, those from the 2nd to 10th Martial Courtyards very rarely appeared within the Extreme Martial Sect.

The Extreme Martial Sect's true strength was wrapped in many layers of clouds, others were simply unable to completely see through it.

"Liao Shaoyun should have been injured. Let's head back for a meeting. Everybody's missions are put on hold, the True Martial Sect and Beast Martial Sect, have overstepped their boundaries. I will absolutely not let them blantly bully the Extreme Martial Sect!" Wu Kaiming declared. The detestable actions the Beast Martial Sect and the True Martial Sect had done today was simply trampling on the dignity of the Extreme Martial Sect!

Although every disciple remained silent, they were filled with hot blood, and could not wait to immediately go all out with the Beast Martial Sect and the True Martial Sect!

Chen Xiang also received a hundred True Elemental Dans and a hundred thousand crystal stones reward. This time around, his contribution was not small. Even Elder Dan also had no choice but admit it and her tone also became a lot more polite.

Chen Xiang also received the reward for advancing to the True Martial Realm from Elder Dan. Just like Yun Xiaodao and the others, Chen Xiang also received a hundred True Elemental Dans, fifty thousand crystal stones, and a tattered used Level-3 Spirit Weapon! Of course, this was just the reward for advancing. He also received the annual benefits provided by the Extreme Martial Sect, which was another one hundred True Elemental Dans and a hundred thousand crystal stones!

These could be considered as very rich rewards. Chen Xiang was now overflowing with wealth, he had received a grand total of five hundred True Elemental Dans and four hundred fifty thousand crystal stones during the period of the Grand Tournament. He had also used a hundred True Elemental Dans and a hundred thousand crystal stones to obtain two Building Foundation Dans from Zhu Rong, Chen Xiang also made a large profit from this.

Additionally, he had also won three Building Foundation Dans and a Nine Sun Flames Fruit from the bet between him, and Lu Zhengnan. By then, Chen Xiang would always have a smile on his face whenever he woke up. In the short span of just ten days, he had earned so much!

However, he felt a bit depressed, because everyday that greedy little dragoness would think about how to get his True elemental Dans and Building Foundation Dans. Fortunately, he currently had no lack of True Elemental Dans, so, he would occasionally give her one or two dans when he was in a good mood.

The Extreme Martial sect was truly enraged due to the humiliation they had to bear because of the Beast Martial Sect and True Martial Sect. At the very first moment, Danxiang Taoyuan came to support the Extreme Martial Sect. Meanwhile, the Divine Weapons Heavenly Empire, Icewind Valley, Lotus Island, and the Proud Sword Sect choose to remain neutral, all of them didn't support either side.

Due to the recent occurrences, Gu Dongchen, who had left with the young True Martial Realm disciples for the exchange hastily returned to the sect to discuss how they would deal with all sorts of things that may occur in the future.

For this kind of matter, Chen Xiang would naturally not have to worry. He felt that his martial nephews and martial niece could handle it themselves. Right now, he was having a meal along with some fine wine inside a hotel with Yun Xiaodao, Zhu Rong, Xu Weilong and Wu Qianqian.

"Elder brother Chen, you must pay for this meal! You actually made so much money, and you're also a Level-4 Alchemist, tsk tsk!" Yun Xiaodao exclaimed while lamenting. If Chen Xiang was just a young True Martial Realm martial artist, it was ok. But at the same time, he was also a Level-4 Alchemist! Among the billions of people in the entire Chenwu Mainland it would be nearly impossible to find a second person like Chen Xiang.

Wu Qianqian sat beside Chen Xiang with a light smile hanging on her face while drinking some juice. Chen Xiang actually brought her with them, this made her very happy. Although there was a stunning beauty next to them, Yun Xiaodao and others didn't make a single move. When they were out with Gu Dongchen, they also became familiar with Wu Qianqian, they knew that she had feelings for Chen Xiang.

"Younger brother Chen, I'm not boasting to you, but I, Lao Zhu got praised by the Dean! Although it is said going out to exchange martial art is just rubbish, in fact, it is very close to real fighting. I made a guy from the Danxiang Taoyuan beg for mercy." Zhu Rong said with a triumphant laugh.

"Cut it out, that's just rubbish. I listened around, and everybody says that the disciples of Danxiang Taoyuan don't have strong martial skills, their main aspect is alchemy! Each and every alchemist has a very wide network of connections. If they wanted to, it wouldn't be a problem to call four to five True Martial Realm martial artists just to beat you." Xu Weilong contemptuously said.

Wu Qianqian seriously nodded her head "What Xu Weilong said is not wrong. Although we can win against Danxiang Taoyan's disciples, if they truly wanted to fight, with respect to their contacts, we are certainly not their opponents."

Yun Xiaodao didn't agree with them, he pursed his lips and said, "Don't underestimate me, I've Dual Heaven Veins. Getting first in one of three competitions is not a problem. Moreover, now I'm a True Martial realm martial artist! I can completely unleash the might of Dual Heaven Veins, even elder brother Chen is not my opponent."

Wu Qianqian heard someone say her sweetheart strength was weak. She didn't get angry, but instead sweetly smiled, "Do you dare to make a gamble with Chen Xiang?"

Yun Xiaodao took a glance at happily smiling Chen Xiang. Yun Xiaodao lacked self-confidence in his heart, although he was very confident of his current strength, it was a different matter if it was against Chen Xiang...

"How about a simple bet? If I win, you'll have to pay the bill. If I lose, till next year, we can come here to eat and drink and it will all be my treat!" Chen Xiang said with a smile.

"Good, how are we going to gamble? You decide!" Yun Xiaodao was excited. Anyway, at worst he would just lose the money for the meal and drinks.

Chen Xiang slightly smiled. He looked at an empty wineglass, and in the blink of an eye, released the invisible colorless Universal True Qi, which wrapped around the wineglass, levitating it. With his enormous divine sense, he controlled the Universal True Qi, as his powerful divine sense fused with his True Qi, transforming into a invisible power. This allowed Chen Xiang to control the wineglass as he pleased.

That small wineglass was suspended in front of Yun Xiaodao, motionless.

Chen Xiang smiled and said, "If you can move this wineglass even a little bit, I lose. Otherwise I win! You have until nightfall."

It was currently evening, and there was a short time till nightfall. Seeing the wineglass dangling, Yun Xiaodao just thought Chen Xiang had used his powerful divine sense and suspended the wineglass, in his opinion it was just a common trick. Yun Xiaodao secretly disdained it in his heart . Afterwards, he extended his hand to grab the wineglass. When he came in contact with the wineglass, it gave him a heart attack! That wineglass seemed tightly crucified in mid-air, it would simply not move!

Chen Xiang wrinkled his brow. It was pretty clear he was also very serious, this was because he was using a special method taught by Su Meiyao and Bai Youyou on how to use True Qi and divine sense simultaneously.
