191-200

Chen Xiang silently calculated how many True Elemental Dans he had. Adding on those he had previously refined along with those he had obtained by participating in the Extreme Martial Grand Tournament, he now had a total of five thousand five hundred True Elemental Dans. Even he heaved an emotional sigh while thinking about how a True Martial Realm martial artist possessing so many True Elemental Dans! He intended to take some time and find some rare spirit herbs, refining those into dans would be very useful.

"Little girl, I want to purchase some herbs for refining Five Elements True Elemental Dans, where would I be able to find them?" Chen Xiang asked with a grin. As long as there was no one else present, he would very casually refer to his martial nephews and niece.

The Five Elements True Elemental Dan was ordinarily given to martial artists who were simultaneously cultivating two or more types of True Qi, it was more useful than the True Elemental Dan. However, it's herbs were relatively rare and also quite expensive. In the market, it could be bought for more or less two hundred thousand crystal stones.

In the Chenwu Mainland, martial artists that cultivated multi-attributed True Qis were very rare. These individuals were all very talented and would be vigorously nurtured by sects. This was also why the Five Elements True Elemental Dan was very expensive as well as scarce.

Elder Dan already knew that Chen Xiang had the Yin and Yang Divine Veins and cultivated the Five Elements True Qi. That was the only way Huang Jitian would fancy to take Chen Xiang as his apprentice, therefore, the fact that he wanted to refine this kind of dan was also not that surprising to her.

"Currently, I also don't know. In other words, the herbs for this dan is very rare, I'll keep my eyes open for them!" Elder Dan replied. Although she and Chen Xiang often bickered, their relationship was pretty good overall.

"Thanks, at that time you can ask for any price freely. Your martial uncle is currently overflowing with wealth." Chen Xiang chuckled and said.

Elder Dan lightly scoffed, "Don't be captured by others, your bounty has already reached ten million crystal stones now! Plus, a lot of people knew you had obtained many giant Monster Dans and a big chunk of the Hell Spirit Grass from the Black Tortoise Mysterious Realm. As such, it will be even more dangerous for you."

Chen Xiang was not worried about it, he just had to be a little careful, as long as his whereabouts were not found by others, he had nothing to fear.

"Little girl, can you do a small favor for me?" Chen Xiang suddenly remembered something.

"Just say it!"

"Help me get three Building Foundation Dans and the Nine Sun Flames Fruit from the Lu Family." Chen Xiang said with a grin, "Little girl, I have a seed of Earth Core Divine Fruit. I'm not afraid to tell you, the thing I gave you to eat was precisely the pulp of the divine fruit."

Elder Dan's tender body trembled, her chest was heaving up and down. She was clearly stunned, she asked in a heavy voice, "Is that true?"

Just as Elder Dan's question fell, a fist-sized red gemstone like thing appeared in Chen Xiang's hand, it looked very beautiful, with a flame burning at its center.

"I'll help you get the betting stakes from Lu Family! But you have to keep in mind, don't plant this divine fruit for now. Wait for me to better reinforce the Extreme Dan King Courtyard's array and defense first! Also, you absolutely can not allow anyone about you possessing the Heavenly Sun Fire Spirit!" Elder Dan turned very serious. Only after exhorting him again for some time did she leave.

"Who in the end is she? Did I tie some past life knot with her?" Chen Xiang rubbed his chin. He was more and more curious about this Elder Dan. He suddenly felt that the relationship between him and Elder Dan had become more intimate.

Chen Xiang laid on the ground under the shade of the Azure Profound Tree. Sunlight shone upon his eyes through the leaves. As he saw the sunlight, suddenly something clicked in his mind.

"Sister Meiyao, does the Heavenly Sun Fire Spirit belongs to Fire Spirit of Creation?" Chen Xiang hastily stood up and asked.

Both the Purple Moon Fire Spirit and the Blue Star Fire Spirit could bring flames of life to the Mortal World, which was why they belong to the category of Fire Spirits of Creation.

"Definitely, can't you tell that most living things are inseparable from the sun? The reason why Spirit Qi in the world can be constantly produced is greatly due to the Sun. The Blue Star Fire and Purple Moon Fire can bred out earth's life, and these flames came from sun itself. Therefore the Heavenly Sun Fire Spirit is far stronger than any other Fire Spirit. However, you've only fused with it recently, and the Fire Spirit is also at its infancy." Su Meiyao replied.

Chen Xiang's eyes rotated and said, "When I release the flames, it has a certain aura, isn't it very similar to sunlight? If so, then I can also breed some life?!"

"This may be ill-advised, but I assume you have to first sense the life force in the Fire Spirit, and then attempt to extract this energy. Perhaps by combining it with the Wood Attribute True Qi, the Dragon Saliva created would have far better effects, but this is just a guess." Some excitement could be detected in Su Meiyao's voice.

The [Dragon Saliva Exercise] in the [Divine Exercise of the Four Symbols] was already something that defied heaven. It was truly an earth-shaking phenomenon that this exercise could create a growth accelerating essence, furthermore it also had a strength enhancing effect on the cultivator exercising it. If it was coupled with the powerful life force bred out by the Heavenly Sun Fire Spirit, wouldn't it be even more fearsome?

Chen Xiang immediately calmed down his heart, relaxed his whole body, and began searching for the life force in the Heavenly Sun Fire Spirit. The Heavenly Sun Fire Spirit was already fused with his body, and it would gradually grow with the absorption of the world's Spirit Qi. As the Fire Spirit grew up, it would eventually start self-generating energy. At that time, Chen Xiang would have a steady stream of flames, and it would even be possible to nurture a Fire Spirit.

Although the [Dragon Saliva Exercise] could accelerate the growth of spirit herbs, Chen Xiang still felt it was not enough. For instance, if he wanted to make Azure Profound Tree bear Azure Profound Fruit, he needed to create Dragon Saliva for a good few months, then he needed another month to irrigate it. During this period, he further delayed his cultivation. Of course, if other alchemists came to learn about his thoughts, they would be scold him to death, he still had the audacity to say this was not enough!

There was no end to a human's greed, and Chen Xiang was no exception. His divine sense flowed throughout his body, looking for the life force in the Heavenly Sun FIre Spirit that had fused with his body. Unconsciously, two days already went by, before suddenly his eyebrows started twitching in excitement; he had found it!

The life force was coming from a golden soft and bright mist. It was very, very small, and hid itself inside a flame element grain. It must be know that in various parts of Chen Xiang's bodies, his bones, blood, and meridians, there were many very small flame particles. This was due to the aftereffects of fusing with the Heavenly Sun Fire Spirit. As long as his soul wasn't destroyed, these mystical flame particles, along with his cultivation, would continue to be produced. When he would release the flames, these particles would bestow him the powerful flames.

Chen Xiang immediately operated the [Dragon Saliva Exercise] and began congealing the Dragon Saliva. He constantly absorbed the life force inside these particles. After the Spirit Qi entered his body, these particle would once again produce this life force in a steady stream, that was why he didn't stop extracting this life force.

Half a day passed, as Chen Xiang finally opened his eyes. He took out a small cup and opened his mouth. Immediately after, a big ball of liquid surging with golden light fell from his tongue into the cup.

At this time, Chen Xiang was extremely excited, because he was successful! However, he still didn't know what the effects of this thing was!

"I was actually successful! Haha... Good, I'll call it Golden Dragon Saliva!" Chen Xiang looked at the golden liquid inside that small cup with delight, it probably had about 40 drops.

He was already under the Azure Profound Tree, and he definitely wanted to test it on the Azure Profound Tree.

Chen Xiang estimated, this Azure Profound Tree would take at least three years to bloom once again, and even if the Dragon Saliva was used, it still needed at least half a year. However, he could use this to properly test the effect of the Golden Dragon Saliva.

Chen Xiang poured the Golden Dragon Saliva in the small cup on the roots, as it was all instantly absorbed by the Azure Profound Tree!

The Golden Dragon Saliva in the small cup was absorbed in the blink of an eye, this made Chen Xiang and Su Meiyao extremely astonished; if it was the Azure Dragon Saliva from before, it would still need to be poured bit by bit, in order to help make the absorption efficient. If poured too much all of a sudden, it would take a lot of time and much of it would be wasted.

[TLN: 一小杯的黄金龙涎瞬间就被吸收,这让沈翔和苏媚瑶都震惊不已,要是之前那种青色的龙涎,还得一点点的去滴,如果一下子放多了,这是为了有利于吸收.

I think author made some mistake in typing and missed a line, so I added a line considering the description author made in the previous chapters.]

If the absorption was faster, it meant that the quality of the Dragon Saliva was better, it could facilitate the spirit herbs to grow faster. When he cultivated the [Dragon Saliva Exercise] before, he still needed to dilute it with water.

Chen Xiang immediately raised his head and look above, he couldn't help but quiver in excitement. He saw forty small buds, and only with pouring everything at once, it already made the tree blossomed, moreover, it also doubled the amount from before! Chen Xiang calculated for a moment, if he used a small cup of Golden Dragon Saliva everyday, it might be possible for him to make the tree bore fruits in a month or so!

"It... b...blossomed once again!" Elder Dan just came back, she felt the Azure Profound Tree seemed different. She raised her head to look and immediately saw forty small azure lanterns-like buds. This Azure Profound Tree from the start made her unable to understand its existence, and made her even more unable to understand how this Azure Profound Tree could bear fruits so quickly; if this continues, it won't be long before it bore fruit once again.

Chen Xiang grinned, "I just woke up and I suddenly saw it blooming again, ha ha... I soon will have forty Azure Profound Fruits!"

Looking at that proud appearance of Chen Xiang, Elder Dan was very jealous. This tree was really too strange, so she doubtfully asked, "Did you do something to this tree? The Azure Profound Fruits have a lot of Spirit Qi. To bear fruit, it needs to absorb a lot of spirit Qi, right, it is never so fast!"

The Azure Profound Tree indeed absorbed a lot of Spirit QI. The Golden Dragon Saliva altered this tree, allowing the tree to absorb Spirit Qi quicker, it extracted all the Spirit Qi from deep underground. So, since Chen Xiang used the Azure Dragon Fruit to bred out this tree, the tree had been madly absorbing Spirit Qi day and night.

In other words, Chen Xiang's Dragon Saliva transformed the 'veins' of these flowers and trees thicker, and simultaneously, it made these flowers and trees have 'Spiritual Vein', which could quickly absorb Spirit Qi. Especially the moment when the Dragon Saliva was poured, the rate of absorption was the most.

The efficacy of the Golden Dragon Saliva was even more, because it contained elemental life force in it. This was something which came to existence in primeval period, and even now, various living beings can not do without the life force inside the sunlight.

"I'll tell you, but only if you let me take a look at your true appearance!" Chen Xiang, after thinking for a while, replied.

"Humph, I will not let you look! I'll make you curious to death!" Elder Dan tenderly snorted and said. Now, the only way she could feel a little better was thinking about how her true appearance could make Chen Xiang's heart itch.

She once again asked, "What you said is true? Did you truly do something?" If so, then the ability Chen Xiang grasped is truly too heaven defying. If those forces hunting Fire Spirit came to know about it, Chen Xiang would be in a lot of trouble.

Chen Xiang pursed his lips and said, "I trust you that's why I'm telling you, however, you do not trust me, why don't you let me see your true appearance? Likewise, I'll not tell it to anyone!"

Elder Dan was startled in her heart, however, she coldly replied, "I won't let you see my face, I've got my own reasons, rest assured, I have not arrived at the point of stupidity and tell about this to others!"

"I've resolved your things, you still need to be careful, the Lu Family hate you to death!" Elder Dan threw a storage pouch to Chen Xiang.

Chen Xiang took the storage pouch and chuckled; that day, Elder Dan had witnessed the bet, so it was certainly normal to go and help Chen Xiang acquire the betting stakes. Besides, Chen Xiang was living in the Extreme Dan King Courtyard, and the Lu Family was not unable to give. However, Lu Family in order to not to pay the stakes, had already lost two 2nd level True Martial Realm martial artists, and that was very serious for a family; its worth was far more than the betting stakes, it was as if they had tried to steal a chicken, and only ended up losing the rice used to lure it!

Nine Sun Flames Fruit was the main ingredient for refining the Profound Sun Fire Dan, this was an ingredient for High-Grade Profound Level Dan. Although it was only one, it was still very precious. Chen Xiang, looking at that bright red fruit, could not help but grin, "Getting it was not totally a waste of effort."

After Elder Dan left, Chen Xiang began operating the Dragon Saliva Exercise, creating that Golden Dragon Saliva. Three days passed and the Azure Profound Tree bloomed once again; it was now exuding an azure brilliance, looking very beautiful.

Early morning, the first ray of sunlight shone, and Chen Xiang had a knowing smile. He left the martial courtyard, fully knowing that the Azure Profound Tree will bear fruit very soon, so he now went to look for Yun Xiaodao and others.

Almost ten days had passed since Yun Xiaodao and others ate the pulp of the Earth Core Divine Fruit, they had already woken up. They had already been waiting for Chen Xiang, and seeing Chen Xiang had arrived, they instantly bombarded Chen Xiang with questions about the pulp. However, Chen Xiang only told them that he obtained a fruit in the Black Tortoise Mysterious Realm.

"Considering I gave this good thing to you, you should tell me, in the end, what did you pick up again? The elevation of your cultivation is not slow!" Chen Xiang asked with a smile.

Zhu Rong laughed and said, "Nothing, our luck is just good, we found a large chunk of top-grade crystal stone, afterwards, these two guys sold some of it."

Most of the time, middle-grade crystal stones were used for trading; both high-grade and top-grade crystal stones were anyhow never used because they were very rare. What the high-grade and top-grade crystal stones contained was not the Spirit Qi, because after the compression, the Spirit Qi inside them was already transformed into pure True Qi. Just a thumb-sized top-grade crystal stone had such a large amount of True Qi, that it could make martial artists rapidly cultivate after absorption.

"Do you want? I can sell you some!" Zhu Rong laughed.

"No need, you can use it for yourself, I can now refine True Elemental Dan, I am not lacking with regards to resources for cultivation." Chen Xiang smiled and said.

"Right, now should be the start of the allocation of the martial courtyards, let's go take a look!" Yun Xiaodao slapped his head, because he realized ten days had already passed.

Chen Xiang waited Yun Xiaodao and the others to fully clean themselves, and afterwards, they arrived at a huge square; everywhere in the square, the martial courtyard allocation list was being announced.

"Only fifteenth martial courtyards, a martial courtyard actually have more than thousand disciples, how can I bear this? And also together with a bunch of Mortal Martial Realm disciples!" Unhappiness was clearly visible on Yun Xiaodao's face, all four of them were allocated in the same martial courtyard, and it was something to be rejoiced about.

"Wu Qianqian is also there, Elder Brother Chen...Hei hei!" Yun Xiaodao smiled very sinisterly.

"I and she are both from the Extreme Dan King Courtyard and already meet regularly, what about it?" Chen Xiang gave him a blank look.

"The pavilion closest to the water enjoys moonlight first, isn't that young girl already received by you?" Zhu Rong said with a evil smile.

[TLN: Idiom: Taking advantage due to being close to some influential figure or due to some circumstances, as here both stay in Extreme Dan King Courtyard]

"Don't talk nonsense! She and I are just friends!" Chen Xiang looked at some martial courtyard related rules, among them, a rule made him somewhat depressed; every year, one must complete a task, otherwise, they would be thrown into the Hell Martial Courtyard to accept punishment.

At this time, Xu Weilong suddenly shouted, "Look, Lu Zhengnan is also with us in the same martial courtyard, this is going to be exciting. I also see a lot of famous young True Martial Realm martial artists names, there are also many family disciples names, some of these families have grudges with you!"

Zhu Rong also nodded his head, "Mortal Martial Realm disciples have nothing to fear as long as they don't enter the True Martial Realm. They are never going to be treated as family, however, if it was a True Martial Realm disciple, in the family, they will be the same as treasure!"

"Chen Xiang, finally now you have appeared!" An angry shout suddenly came from far away.

Chen Xiang was slightly surprised, this was Lu Zhengnan's voice!

Because of Lu Zhengnan's negligence, he made his family lose three Building Foundation Dans and a Nine Sun Flames Fruit. How could it be possible that there were no repercussions? At this moment, his hate for Chen Xiang had reached an extreme peak.

"Was the previous loss still not miserable enough for you?" Chen Xiang grinned as he indifferently replied back. In the square, there were many people. Upon seeing such a spectacle, their spirits were suddenly stirred.

"The Martial Courtyard's new rules states that as long as the strength is about the same, no challenge can be refused! It was made to have better exchanges between disciples." Lu Zhengnan clenched his fists. With a fierce look in his eyes, he glared at Chen Xiang.

Obviously, Lu Zhengnan wanted to challenge Chen Xiang. Both of them were True Martial Realm martial artists, and the Extreme Martial Sect's martial courtyard system had just been changed, ushering two True Martial Realm martial artists into a fierce battle, this stirred up the crowd's spirit once again.

"If you want to challenge him, you have to go through me first!" A middle-aged man suddenly walked over and stood in front of Chen Xiang. This caused Chen Xiang and others to be slightly surprised. This middle-aged man with an extraordinary bearing was precisely Yao Haisheng, the apprentice that had been cheaply taken in by Chen Xiang previously!

"Mister...Mister Yao, you... why would you act like this!?"

Lu Zhengnan obviously recognized Yao Haisheng. Although everyone knew Yao Haisheng was Chen Xiang's apprentice, they didn't take it seriously, it was only treated as a joke. Moreover, many people respected Yao Haisheng a lot. After all, he was a Level-3 Alchemist. For many years in various alchemy competitions, he was among the top, one of the high and most notable figures. His alchemy talent was not bad, and had quite the reputation in the alchemist community of the Extreme Martial Province.

"He is my teacher!" Yao Haisheng dismissively replied. If it was before, he was far too embarrassed to say so, however, now it was different. At the moment, Chen Xiang was not only a True Martial Realm martial artist, he was also a Level-4 Alchemist, an entire level higher than Yao Haisheng! Although it was only one level, the difference was like heaven and earth. He wouldn't be ridiculed for having such a teacher now.

Chen Xiang smiled and said, "Haisheng, you've been in closed door training all this time, what are the results? As a teacher, I've been far too busy these past few years and had no time to guide you in alchemy, please forgive me!"

If Chen Xiang said so in the past, it would surely be laughable. However, now no one dare to laugh, because now he possessed the qualifications to speak like this to Yao Haisheng!

Now Yao Haisheng was already convinced in heart and by word. He had finally accepted Chen Xiang as his teacher. Naturally, Chen Xiang was also happy to receive such an apprentice, because he wanted to establish his own influence and as an alchemist, Yao Haisheng met the requirements to join and help bolster Chen Xiang's forces.

"This apprentice has been concentrating on the True Elemental Dan and the White Jade Dan. I can barely refine True Elemental Dan now, it's just that I don't have enough herbs." Yao Haisheng respectfully replied. Chen Xiang was able to refine the True Elemental Dan and the White Jade Dan, and also of very high quality. This alone made Yao Haisheng feel reverence.

Chen Xiang nodded his head, took out a storage pouch and handed it to his apprentice, he slightly smiled and said, "These are fifty set of herbs for both True Elemental Dans and White Jade Dans, take them and practice! You don't need to intervene in my matter!"

Yao Haisheng was stunned, everyone looked dumbfoundingly at the storage pouch. Everyone wanted to know whether those things were truly there or not. Chen Xiang could actually be so generous, and gave away so many herbs in one shot!

Yao Haisheng took the storage pouch, just after he injected his divine sense to look, his whole body quivered. Repeatedly in a quivering voice, he expressed his gratitude. Everyone looked on and thought that it was not a false scene. In their hearts, they secretly guessed that Chen Xiang must have obtained many good things in the Black Tortoise Mysterious Realm, This lead them to have greedy looks in their eyes as they looked at Chen Xiang.

"Lu Zhengnan, you want to challenge me, right! Do you dare to bet once again?" Chen Xiang said with a happy smile. With a ruminating look, he looked at Lu Zhengnan who was still dazed in surprise.

"I...I just want to challenge you, exchange pointers with you in martial arts!" Lu Zhengnan wanted to bet, however, he had nothing to bet.

Chen Xiang's complexion changed, became extremely gloomy. Time and time again, the Lu wanted to kill him. He had already decided to pay them back tens of hundreds of time over.

"You can bet you head, are you going to bet or not? If you lose, I'll cut off your head. If I lose, I'll give you my head!" Chen Xiang sneered, "My head is worth ten million crystal stones, do you agree or not?"

Wasn't this gambling their lives? In other words, a life and death battle, which was allowed in the sect. However, it seemed Chen Xiang was getting shorter end of the stick, because his head was worth ten million crystal stones, while Lu Zhengnan's was worthless.

Chen Xiang had already noticed earlier that Lu Zhengnan had entered into the 2nd level of the True Martial Realm. However, the True Qi within his body had also changed a lot, it was a lot stronger than before.

Lu Zhengnan suddenly madly started laughing, "Ha ha... Don't think you'll always be the winner, I admit I don't have anything else to bet with you, however, I have this life to bet! This time, I'll definitely recover everything I lost along with interest!"

Chen Xiang coldly smiled, silently said in his heart. "Lu Family, I'll first kill off Lu Zhengnan, and then officially declare a war on you. With Lu Zhengnan's head, I'll declare that I, Chen Xiang, am not so easy to bully!"

"Tomorrow morning, Extreme Martial Dazzling Sun Valley!" Lu Zhengnan coldly spoke and then turned around and left.

The Extreme Martial Dazzling Sun Valley was a valley inside a mountain range on one side of numerous martial courtyards. The ground in this valley was very sturdy, furthermore, this valley was fully covered in arrays. Even if True Martial Realm martial artists fought here, it was very difficult to destroy. This place was actually given to True Martial Realm martial artists for competitions.

Zhu Rong began gathering some information about the Lu Family. Meanwhile, Yun Xiadao and Xue Weilong began searching for True Martial Realm disciples with no background, or some 10th level Mortal Martial Realm disciples with good qualifications. These were the kind of people they wanted to rope into their new force.

Chen Xiang, along with Yao Haisheng, went to Yao Haisheng's residence in the Extreme Dan Courtyard. Chen Xiang guided his disciple in refining True Elemental Dan and White Jade Dan. Which for him, was a very easy thing to do. After all, the other person had called him teacher, he certainly had to act as a teacher should.

Chen Xiang passed down his experience in refining True Elemental Dans and White Jade Dans. Through his clear and simple guidance, Yao Haosheng learned a lot and benefited greatly. This made him admire Chen Xiang even more.

The elders of the Extreme Martial Sect also gathered together to discuss the facilitation of disciple's effort and cultivation methods. Chen Xiang always felt the Extreme Martial Sect did such in order to deal with the besiegement of other sects, or anything else in that matter.

Chen Xiang had also entered the True Martial Realm for quite some time, however, he still had not seen those legendary 'Divine Martial Skills', the heaven level martial skills. This was also one of the Extreme Martial Sect's core confidential secrets. Ordinarily, one must wait till they entered the True Marital Realm. After advancing, if they had dedicated themselves towards the Extreme Martial Sect to some extent, only then would they be able to learn one of these skills, or if they had a teacher, their teacher could impart these skills onto them.

However, now the rules had been modified. As long as the individual got approval from the Extreme Martial Sect, they could get the Divine Martial Skill. It's just that the approval standard hasn't been introduced yet.

The next morning, Chen Xiang arrived at the Extreme Martial Dazzling Sun Valley. The mountainside around it was already filled with a large audience. Once Chen Xiang came, Zhu Rong, Yun Xiaodao and Xue Weilong rushed over.

"Younger brother Chen, Lu Zhengnan's forces cannot be overlooked. He has a very powerful teacher! That teacher of his has unclear antecedents, but he had mastered the Dragon Martial Technique! I think Lu Zhengnan had also learned it." Zhu Rong said in a low voice.

Once Chen Xiang heard these three words, 'Dragon Martial Technique', a glimpse of a smile appeared on his lips. He was fearless of the Dragon Martial Technique because he cultivated the strongest of them all, the [Tai Chi Subduing Dragon Exercise]. As long as he understood the depths of the [Tai Chi Subduing Dragon Exercise]'s mysteries, not only would he be able to restrain all other Dragon Martial Techniques, he could also create new Dragon Martial Techniques!

Ever since yesterday evening, Zhu Rong had been investigating all night. He wanted to know why Lu Zhengnan had so much confidence. Zhu Rong had not expected Lu Zhengnan to actually have a Dragon Martial Technique as assurance, in the eyes of the Chewu Mainland's martial artists it was something sacred, it was on a similar level to those Divine Martial Skills!

Lu Zhengnan had already arrived, he wore a golden tight light-armor, with one look, it was quite clear that the rank of this armor was not bad. If one possessed this sort of defensive equipment, they would be able to block a part of attack, and the individual would avoid getting seriously injured during a fight.

"King Scale Armor, a 7th level spirit equipment, this guy is pretty rich!" Xu Weilong coldly said, squinting as he looked at Lu Zhengnan.

In order to compare notes better, the usage of weapons were not allowed during the competition. However, armor and defensive equipment could be put on. Last time, Lu Zhengnan lost to Chen Xiang in alchemy, however, Lu Zhengnan was very confident in regards to his strength. Although he knew that Chen Xiang crippled a ton of True Martial Realm martial artists in the Black Tortoise Mysterious Realm, that was under the situation where Chen Xiang was able to use his True Qi, while other could not. Lu Zhengnan believed that he could also have crippled all those people under the same circumstances.

Yun Xiaodao and the others had already left the martial arts field, going halfway up the mountain to watch the fight. They also looked all around them but still didn't find any Elders present.

"Chen Xiang, you will not have any chance to regret your actions because you will definitely die today!" While shouting, Lu Zhengnan's eyes turned red. That originally white face of his was completely covered in black Qi, a few black facial muscles bulged out, his appearance truly looked grim.

Suddenly, an Evil Qi surged out from Lu Zhengnan's body, making Chen Xiang retreat a few steps back. Looking at this appearance of Lu Zhengnan, Chen Xiang's complexion turned incomparably heavy, in his heart, he was even more shocked.

"This is the Evil Dragon Martial Technique! It's a skill that was created as a result of modification of Dragon Martial Technique by some devil path martial artist, this kind of Dragon Martial Technique is very harmful to people. It is harmful for both the cultivator and others, at the early stage, the cultivator would not be able to notice anything wrong, furthermore it would grant a giant boost to their strength. However, if the cultivator is able to reach the later stages, then the cultivator would basically cease to exist, they will first lose their conscience, and then become an extremely evil person." Bai Youyou said with a surprise. From the very beginning, she was a cultivator from devil's path, she had a very deep understanding in regards to most things related to devil path.

This Lu Zhengnan's Evil Dragon Martial Technique gave a scare to Chen Xiang and everyone else present. Then next scene gave even more of a shock to everyone as both of Lu Zhengnan's hands suddenly turned pitch black. Afterwards, they slowly started swelling, transforming into two pitch black dragon claw, the tip of the claw was very long, looking very grim and frightening.

"Chen Xiang, it's time for you to die!" Lu Zhengnan's voice had turned a lot more horse, it seemed as if a ferocious beast was talking. At this point, his appearance was very frightening. There were dark scales bulging out on his face, each filled with that Black Qi. Combined with those dark grim dragon claws, it was quite a frightening scene.

Looking at Lu Zhengnan, his appearance was similar to that of a beast-man.

People felt a surge of nausea, and felt fearful of the Evil Qi shrouding the valley. Chen Xiang felt a hostile True Qi filled with evil intentions locking onto him, arising a sense of crisis in Chen Xiang's mind.

"What kind of teacher does he have!? The technique his master passed down actually turned him something like this!" Chen Xiang secretly thought. At this time, a black mist suddenly flew towards him, followed by a gust of wind. He felt a ruthless and tyrannical force approaching.

With an electric flash, Chen Xiang dodged sideways. If he was even a little bit slower, he would have been struck by those pair of dark dragon claws. Although he had the Black Tortoise Adamantyl Armor, he would inevitably be seriously injured facing such a terrifying evil True Qi,.

This Evil Dragon Martial Technique indeed could allow the cultivator to become very powerful, Chen Xiang secretly sighed at the burst of power that came from Lu Zhengnan just a moment ago.

While Chen Xiang was startled, Lu Zhengnan leapt over like the wind. He fiercely stretched out a claw towards Chen Xiang's face. Five sharp claw tips shining with a cold glint pierced through the air like five sharp knives accompanied by a powerful burst of Qi. Chen Xiang once again dodged sideways, however, that powerful blow still drew two bloody scratches on his face.

Lu Zhengnan was very quick, just as Chen Xiang had dodged, Lu Zhengnan once again launched another barrage of onslaught. With those incomparably hard and indestructible dark dragon claws, he attacked Chen Xiang. In that way, it was equivalent to Lu Zhengnan using two powerful weapons to attack Chen Xiang.

Meanwhile, Chen Xiang wasn't able to use his weapon, and for the past while he has fallen under the wind.

Chen Xiang leaned his head once again and dodged sideways. Those rainstorm like sharp claws flew right at him even though he was moving very rapidly. His figure had already disappeared from the field, yet Lu Zhengnan was still able to determine his position accurately! After Lu Zhengnan turned half-beast, his five senses were elevated by many folds, it was very difficult to deal with.

Lu Zhengnan had gathered a lot of True Qi on his arms. As a result, whenever he drew an attack with his hideous arms, he was able to gather a large amount of force and momentum, in that way, his sharp claws became even more powerful.

At this moment, the ground was fully covered in claw marks as a result of the lingering Qi waves released from each strike.

"This guy is actually faster than me!" Chen Xiang was secretly shocked in his heart. Although it was only a tad bit faster, it rendered him unable to fight back.

Once Lu Zhengnan's onslaught broke out, his power and speed was something to reckon with. It even made some 3rd level and 4th level True Martial Realm martial artists in the audience ashamed of themselves!

But those who truly understood what was going on were actually scared by Chen Xiang. Because despite facing this kind of terrifying onslaught of dragon claws, he only had a few scratches on his face, nothing more. Chen Xiang was basically uninjured, his breathing remained stable, and there was not an ounce of panic on his face. It also appeared that under such circumstances, he was also slowly getting familiar with Lu Zhengnan's rhythm. Though Lu Zhengnan's attacks appeared very fierce, you could say that Chen Xiang's defense was even more formidable.

After having no visible results even after attacking for such a long time, Lu Zhengnan was running out of patience. Suddenly, he emitted a gloomy roar as a black Evil Qi surged out from his body. Both of his arms expanded rapidly in size as scales started popping out on his arms. His appearance became even more grim, his whole body became bloated and larger. Once again, the sight of this transformation made the scalp of onlookers tingle.

"I want your head!" Lu Zhengnan smacked out another palm, however, a lot faster than before. The sudden change in speed caught Chen Xiang off guard, however, he had very rich battle experience. In that instant, a water screen appeared guarding his head. Despite this, he was still sent flying from the force of the dark claw and that water screen just bursted under the pressure.

After Chen Xiang was smacked away by Lu Zhengnan, he transformed into a black silhouette chasing down his victim as his dark claws stamped down on Chen Xiang.

Chen Xiang escaped with a quick roll as a Qi cover shrouded his entire body. This was the [Black Tortoise Luo Tian Cover] and had extremely powerful defensive capabilities.

Although Lu Zhengnan's blow failed to hit Chen Xiang, the entire ground was smashed from that one strike, the entire valley shook as a tremor through the ground!

Such a powerful blow, yet Chen Xiang had managed to dodge it. Lu Zhengnan was extremely furious. He uttered an insane howl once again and smacked a palm downwards at the rolling Chen Xiang.

This palm strike caused another sudden tremor to run through the ground. It was clearly evident how powerful Lu Zhengnan's attacks were. The ground beneath Chen Xiang was completely crushed and sunk in. Nothing happened to Chen Xiang, but his [Black Tortoise Luo Tian Cover] was scattered into pieces from the attack.

While Lu Zhengnan's palm strike was coming towards Chen Xiang, he also stretched out his arm that had been covered in a light mist and grasped Lu Zhengnan's ankle in a counter attack. Suddenly, crackling sounds were heard, followed by a furious howl from Lu Zhengnan. Chen Xiang had used the [Profound Aura Finger], the formidable martial technique capable of easily destroying spirit weapons just by pinching them! At this time, Chen Xiang had already stepped into the 2nd Level of the True Martial Realm and with his terrifying Universal True Qi, he completely crush Lu Zhengnan's ankle!

When Lu Zhengnan's ankle was crushed, he felt indescribable pain coursing through his leg.

With the sudden impulse of intense pain, Lu Zhengnan spewed out blood. That bloated grim body of his was slowly getting smaller...

Lu Zhengnan's ankle was crushed and it was an extremely painful experience. He was furious and fiercely smacked a palm towards Chen Xiang. Lu Zhengnan pounced with all his strength, aiming directly at Chen Xiang's head.

Chen Xiang's response was very fast. He raised his hand and welcomed those grim clams with his own palms. The two palms struck each other and erupted with a thunderous sound. A sudden tremor ran through the ground thereby shaking the valley.

Lu Zhengnan let out another painful howl. His huge grim palm was completely covered in blood. When Chen Xiang extended his palm a moment ago, he used the [Profound Aura Finger] and the [Shocking Heaven Palm] simultaneously, two Earth Level Martial Skills! Not only did his blow pierce through Lu Zhengnan's palm and completely crush it, a terrifying and powerful Qi also entered his body through the palm.

This terrifying and powerful Qi passed directly through Lu Zhengnan's arm, shaking it from the inside out and crushing it inch by inch. His arm dangled by his side, rendered completely useless.

Just a few seconds had passed, yet Chen Xiang had successfully counterattacked, messed up Lu Zhengnan's rhythm, gained the upper hand, and crushed Lu Zhengnan's arm and foot. As a result, Lu Zhengnan completely lost his sanity and howled over and over, turning even more ferocious! Relying on his remaining foot, he leapt towards Chen Xiang. Lu Zhengnan's other palm smacked towards Chen Xiang, those five sharp claws on that hideous palm were completely covered in an evil and frightening aura.

Chen Xiang didn't dodge, he mobilized all the Azure Dragon True Qi in his body instead. His arm was immediately covered in Azure True Qi and transformed into an Azure Dragon claw.

The Azure Dragon claw and the Dark Dragon claw struck each other, appearing evenly matched. However, Chen Xiang had released all of his Azure Dragon True Qi and his blow was a lot stronger compared with Lu Zhengnan's.

Both claws collided with each other and the entire valley fiercely shook once again. A thunderous sound rang throughout the horizon, immediately followed by a blood-curdling scream coming from Lu Zhengnan. His entire arm had disappeared, Chen Xiang's Azure Dragon claw swept through everything in its path and blasted everything to smithereens.

Lu Zhengnan reverted back to his usual state. Chen Xiang couldn't help but admit that if he was not careful a moment ago, he definitely would have been squeezed to death by Lu Zhengnan's frightening claws. When he had turned half-beat half-human, his strength and speed increased exponentially. Especially that explosive force, it even left Chen Xiang with a lingering fear.

"Chen Xiang...You...You're also in 2nd level of the True Martial Realm?" Lu Zhengnan's complexion turned completely pale from fear as he panickingly looked at Chen Xiang.

Lu Zhengnan originally believed that after he strided into 2nd level of the True Martial Realm, and also learned such a powerful Evil Dragon Martial Technique, Chen Xiang would not pose any threat. How could Lu Zhengnan have known that Chen Xiang also entered the 2nd level of the True Martial Realm, and he would be so powerful despite being in the same level. In addition, Chen Xiang still had the Azure Dragon Slaughtering Devil Blade, his strength was unfathomable. He had once used that blade to behead 3rd level True Martial Realm martial artist when he was only in the 1st level of the True Martial Realm.

Suddenly, True Qi rushed out from Chen Xiang's left arm, transforming into a blade shape. A weapon created from vigorous True Qi would also be very sharp. Depending on how rich the True Qi was, the weapon formed could also be a lot more formidable and could even be compared with some spirit weapons.

"Chen Xiang, you can not kill me!" Lu Zhengnan was panic-stricken, as he hastily shouted.

Chen Xiang gave him a deadpan look. While Lu Zhengnan was still processing Chen Xiang's response, he had already appeared in front of Lu Zhengnan in a flash. Chen Xiang waved that broadsword of True Qi, hacking on Lu Zhengnan's neck, and completely separated his head.

Looking at the head tumbling on the ground, with the wide opened eyes filled with fear belonging to Lu Zhengnan, everyone present felt horrified in their hearts. Especially some True Martial Realm martial artists, compared to those Mortal Martial Realm martial artists, they had a deeper understanding of the battle, and Chen Xiang's strength gave them a huge shock.

More than twenty thousand disciples came to watch the fight. When they saw Lu Zhengnan being killed, everyone broke into hubbub. After all, Lu Zhengnan was a rare talented True Martial Realm disciple of the Extreme Martial Sect, not to mention he was also an alchemist. Furthermore, he also had the famous Lu Family from the Extreme Martial Province supporting him. Now that Chen Xiang killed Lu Zhengnan, there was no doubt that a ridge had been forged between Chen Xiang and the Lu Family.

Just as Chen Xiang bent down to pick up the storage bracelet belonging to Lu Zhengnan. A loud shout "Zhengnan!" was heard from far away, just as the shout resounded, Chen Xiang felt a burst of powerful Qi approaching him. He instantly jumped back to dodge, while a trembling old man appeared next to Lu Zhengnan's dead body.

Lu Shang! He was precisely that Elder Lu who had viciously acted against Chen Xiang that day. Chen Xiang didn't expect Elder Lu to actually make an appearance now.

"Chen Xiang, did you do this?" Lu Shang faced Chen Xiang and shouted, sounding extremely furious.

"He and I bet our heads, he lost, so I cut off his head!" Chen Xiang dismissively said. At the same time, he was secretly mobilizing his True Qi, he feared Lu Shang would launch a sneak attack. Regardless of anything else, one must know that Lu Shang was a lot more powerful than Chen Xiang.

Lu Shang glared at Chen Xiang and roared, "Chen Xiang, you have already won our Lu Family's Nine Sun Flames Fruit along with three Building Foundation Dans, how can you still act like this!? You're actually still being so unreasonable and killed our Lu Family's rare genius!"

"Hahaha..." Chen Xiang suddenly broke into laughter, "Old mongrel, you are already clear about the matter and still came here to bark lies. It was him who first challenge me, furthermore, the knot between me and your Lu Family is already impossible to unravel!"

"The last time I left the Extreme Martial Sect, your Lu Family sent two 2nd level True Martial Realm martial artists to assassinate me. Fortunately I had a good weapon, and it was the only reason I was able to turn the tables, and kill those two guys."

Upon hearing this, Lu Shang's heart was shaken. The Lu Family's two 2nd level True Martial Realm martial artists were killed by Chen Xiang! This made Lu Shang even more angry.

Seeing Lu Shang's sore point had been pricked, Chen Xiang continued speaking, "Your Lu Family didn't want to pay up those betting stakes, and thought of killing me again and again! When I managed to deal with the people sent by you to assassinate me, you still attacked and seriously injured me last time in the Black Tortoise Mountain, forcing me into the Netherworld Abyss. Fortunately, my luck was not bad, and I was able to come back alive."

"Chen Xiang, don't make slanderous accusations! Fell down into the Netherworld Abyss and was still able to come back alive? Speak only if you have evidence!" Lu Shang retorted.

His voice was loud. After everyone around them heard, they were all very surprised. However, most of them were suspicious regarding Chen Xiang's claims. Anyone who fell down into the Netherworld Abyss truly had never come back out.

Chen Xiang had already guessed Lu Shang would rather die than admit his crimes. Chen Xiang once again sneered and said, "Take your Lu Family's genius corpse and go, he seeked his own death."

The anger in Lu Shang's heart had already reached the boiling point, he roared, "Chen Xiang, you are provoking our Lu Family again and again. Not only did you trick Lu Zhengnan into a betting fight with you using sinister tricks. You also slandered my Lu Family, I'll kill you, I simply cannot forgive you!"

Lu Shang became resolute in his heart and swooped over towards Chen Xiang. Lu Shang punched out as a deep and strong True Qi overflowed from his arm. Striking through the air, crackling sounds could be heard as a thick layer of soil was scraped off from the ground from the resulting wind.

This was the strength of 9th level of the True Martial Realm, it was several times more powerful than Chen Xiang's blow.

Looking at that terrifying punch coming from Lu Shang, everyone believed Chen Xiang was dead, without any exception. Just as they expected Chen Xiang to become a pile of meat from the punch, he actually also punched out. He attacked like lightning, his strength was also very powerful. Accompanied with the explosion of True Qi from the fists was a fierce wind that smashed everything in its path into pieces.

Wasn't Chen Xiang in the 2nd level of the True Martial Realm? Now he actually had strength equivalent to the 9th level of the True Martial Realm!

Chen Xiang originally intended to dodge the attack. However, in that instant, he felt a very powerful strength coursing from his left arm. The source of this tyrannical might was Long Xueyi, that little dragoness. Beforehand, Long Xueyi said that at an appropriate time, she could lend Chen Xiang some of her power. It was just that the might of this strength was totally out of his expectations, it actually allowed him to approach the power of someone in the 9th level of the True Martial Realm.

Two clashing forces of vigorous True Qi collided with one another. A tyrannical typhoon of wind came from the impact, accompanied by a burst of dazzling aura. A fierce tremor ran throughout the valley, shaking everything present. The gigantic martial field was completely covered in countless cracks.

Chen Xiang and Lu Shang both flew out from the resulting explosion. Both of them spewed out blood from the recoil. Lu Shang didn't expect Chen Xiang to actually erupt with such fearsome strength and was completely unguarded, suffering heavily from the recoil.

Meanwhile, Chen Xiang's strength was lent by Long Xueyi. The rest of his body was still the same, facing that fearsome recoil, he simply had no way to resist.

After Chen Xiang fell onto the ground, he quickly swallowed a small piece of the Hell Spirit Grass, along with a True Elemental Dan. At this point, his injures were not in anyway light. After swallowing that piece of Hell Spirit Grass, he immediately took out the Azure Dragon Slaughtering Devil Blade.

"Little Dragoness, how long can you hold on for?" Chen Xiang asked. He was very much in need of Long Xueyi's strength.

"I can still hold on for sometime, however, you need to act quickly!" Long Xueyi said in a serious tone. She understood what Chen Xiang was currently planning to do.

Chen Xiang fiercely wiped off the blood from the corner of his mouth. He quickly refined the True Elemental Dan, replenishing his consumed Azure Dragon True Qi. At this moment, he also secretly released the Black Tortoise Adamantyl Armor and hid it under his cloth. This way, he would have far better defense and didn't need to worry about getting physically damaged.

Just a moment ago, both fists colliding resulted in the sand and stones flying out from the valley. Essentially, a sandstorm was billowing in the valley, making it very difficult to clearly see what was happening. Carrying the Azure Dragon Slaughtering Devil Blade, Chen Xiang confirmed Lu Shang's location using divine sense and rushed straight towards him.

A moment ago, Lu Shang had punched in pure rage and he also completely hated Chen Xiang. That's why no small amount of strength was put into that punch. If Chen Xiang was struck unhindered, he would be crippled, if not dead. It was also because of this that Lu Shang suffered a larger recoil and thereby had serious injuries.

Within the billowing sandstorm, Lu Shang was sitting on the ground and felt an oppressive presence approaching him. Elder Lu had a very rich battle experience and instantly jumped into the sky, dodging the sudden attack. The ground was shaken once again and Lu Shang was able to see Chen Xiang chopping down that powerful azure giant blade from high up in the air. If Lu Shang had not dodged in time, he would definitely be cut in two.

That blade blow from Chen Xiang gouged out a deep ravine onto the ground, like a straight brook. As he realized that his blade had missed it's target, he quickly turned around, and fiercely leapt towards Lu Shang. He didn't expect Chen Xiang's reactions to be so sharp and also instantly sensing where to go.

Humph!

Chen Xiang coldly snorted, the Azure Dragon True Qi fiercely surged into the Azure Dragon Slaughtering Devil Blade. That huge blade body glittered with crackles of lightning, erupting with wave after wave of oppressive lightning force. The sky turned dark and also began crackling with lightning, emitting a billowing thunderous noise. As Chen Xiang raised the Azure Dragon Slaughtering Devil Blade high into the sky, thunderclaps reverberated in the sky. Suddenly, numerous thick lightning bolts fell down from the heavens, directly landing on the Azure Dragon Slaughtering Devil Blade.

This was the [Thunderbolt Cut] from the [Dragonslayer Seven Killing Cuts]. It guided a large amount of lightning force into the blade, which would be all released upon attacking the enemy just like a fierce thunderbolt.

At this moment, Chen Xiang had also absorbed a large amount of lightning in his body. If he didn't reach the 2nd level of Immortal and Devil Body, there was no way he would be able to guide such a large amount of violent lightning force. As he sensed Lu Shang's location, Chen Xiang raised his blade and arrived before Lu Shang with lightning speed.

That terrifying lightning coursed throughout the Azure Dragon Slaughtering Devil Blade, this kind of oppressive strength was extremely suffocating. At this point, all the lightning force contained in Chen Xiang's body completely erupted. Released from its imprisonment from the hacking down of the Azure Dragon Slaughtering Devil Blade, the lighting was completely unleashed.

An earth shaking thunderclap resounded, that sudden thunderous sound reverberated in the entire Tianmen City, scaring the daylights out of everyone.

"Old mongrel, I said I will pay you back tens upon hundreds of times!"

Chen Xiang shouted in his heart. That Azure Dragon Slaughtering Devil Blade strike was similar to a thunderbolt, striking directly on Lu Shang's body. Hacking downwards, that violent lightning force burst open, blasting Lu Shang into pieces. That terrifying force of nature was completely unleashed through the Azure Dragon Slaughtering Devil Blade, hacking towards the ground. A frightening powerful Qi accompanied with lightning like a furious dragon ran parallel to the ground and struck on that far away mountain. The force pierced straight through that mountain, blasting open a huge cave!

The Extreme Martial Dazzling Sun Valley was limited for fight between those beneath the 6th level of the True Martial Realm. Any fight between participants above the realm needed approval from the elders. Yet now, Chen Xiang with Long Xueyi's support, erupted with a strength equivalent to someone in the 9th level of True Martial Realm!

Many were not able to see what occurred in the mountain valley, however, they were able to sense Chen Xiang executing a fierce attack. A few True Martial Realm martial artists who had pretty good eyesight were able to clearly see that earth shattering strike from Chen Xiang. That formidable blow gave them a big fright, they were left completely dumbfounded!

The sand in the mountain valley slowly dispersed. Everyone saw a somewhat embarrassed Chen Xiang clasping a two-edged domineering broadsword, standing alone inside the valley. Which also had an extra big gully gouged out, passing through a far away mountain and even a new cave inside that mountain!

Chen Xiang heaved a long sigh, at this point he was very tired. However, he was still extremely excited. Although the strength he released a moment ago was lent to him by Long Xueyi, it still made him feel extremely satisfied and carefree.

Noticing that new broad, deep and long gully, everyone was stunned and left speechless. What made them even more astonished was that Lu Shang was nowhere to be seen, there were only some charred rags left lying on the ground!

Had Lu Shang been killed by Chen Xiang? Lu Shang was from the Elder Courtyard, although he was only in the 9th level of the True Martial Realm, he was still high and lofty in the eyes of many. Now he was blasted into pieces!

Chen Xiang had killed an elder of the Extreme Martial Sect, how did he do it? Did he have strength comparable to the 9th level of the true Martial Realm? Everyone thought it was impossible, otherwise, he would have easily killed Lu Zhengnan. However, many people soon associated that brutal lightning bolt from before with Chen Xiang drawing support from a savage force of nature to attack!

The whole valley was deadly silent, before erupting into hubbub of discussions and screams. Ultimately, everyone was still having a hard time believing Chen Xiang was able to kill Lu Shang!

"This time, he is in deadly trouble. He has killed an elder, that is definitely a grave sin!"

"Chen Xiang is truly a frightening guy, there should not be a one in a million chance anyone will provoke him now."

"He truly is worthy to have a ten million crystal stone bounty. At such a young age, he is so powerful!"

"That broadsword is definitely a brilliant-grade weapon! It must be!"

Everyone had different opinions, however, everyone lamented. Yun Xiaodao, Zhu Rong and Xu Weilong were good friends of Chen Xiang, but they were still scared speechless. Originally, they all believed they had shortened the gap between them and Chen Xiang. However, now they felt that they were unable to keep up!

"What happened?" Wu Kaiming flew over from far away. Just a moment ago that thunderclap reverberated in the radius of ten thousand li, all high-level members of the Extreme Martial Sect were disturbed, wondering what on earth was going on.

Gu Dongchen, Elder Dan, and many other old men soon arrived. These people were all from the Elder Courtyard. At the same time, many powerful martial artists flew over in the sky. As they stopped, the whole mountain valley was enveloped in a terrifying aura. Numerous powerful martial artists of the Extreme Martial Sect had gathered here, and released their True Qi to protect themselves to avoid being sneak attacked. After all, he disturbance from beforehand here was very big!

The legs of some no good Mortal Martial realm martial artists turned soft from fright as they slumped down on the ground.

"Why is it you again?" Gu Dongchen heaved a long sigh after noticing Chen Xian .

Those martial artists of the Extreme Martial Sect came to the Extreme Martial Dazzling Sun Valley in a rush, and after glancing over everything in the valley, all of them were suddenly scared. The bricks in there, through a special means, had been reinforced; they were very difficult to break, however, now the valley was in ruins, especially that deep gully crossing over the whole mountain valley and piercing through the mountain far away. This made them even more shocked.

"Chen Xiang, what happened?" Gu Dongchen asked in a heavy tone, he observed Chen Xiang's current appearance, and he knew he must have experienced a great battle; there were not many who could make Chen Xiang look like this.

"I killed Lu Shang and Lu Zhengnan!" Chen Xiang, carrying the giant blade on his shoulder, looked at those remaining pieces on the ground, before he continued speaking, "And you are stepping on him!"

Gu Dongchen was surprised for a moment, and he subconsciously looked down.

Those True Disciples who had also just arrived lowered their head to look; indeed they could find many charred pieces on the ground, and in their heart, they were even more alarmed. Chen Xiang could kill Lu Shang? What a joke! Lu Shang was but a martial artist from 9th level of the True Martial Realm! Killing Lu Zhengnan would be just about right!

Many knew about Lu Zhengnan and Chen Xiang betting their head; killing Lu Zhengnan was truly nothing, however, Lu Shang was not that easy to kill.

"Is this your doing?" Wu Kaiming doubtfully asked as he looked at the ruined valley.

Chen Xiang received the Azure Dragon Slaughtering Devil Blade, stretched his exhausted waist, before he said, "Lu Shang first acted against me; he started ruthlessly, and he clearly wanted to take my life. I was forced to fight back, furthermore, he had repeatedly tried to kill me, now I have killed him and you also can not blame me, believe it or not, it is all upto you!"

After he finished speaking, Chen Xiang, with large steps, left, while Gu Dongchen and the trio didn't leave. The other True Disciples and elders also didn't leave, they observed the traces left on the ground; after founding Lu Zhengnan's corpse. they buried it, afterwards. They called many of those disciples who had witnessed the battle, and inquired about the details of the battle.

After half an hour, Gu Dongchen, the trio, and those elders got to know the whole matter, and those True Disciples were also shocked, because Lu Shang was indeed killed by Chen Xiang.

Chen Xiang had killed Lu Shang who was in the 9th level of the True Martial Realm! This matter shook the whole Extreme Martial Sect, everyone in the Tianmen City were talking about it. In the Tianmen City, there were many squads who had arrived beforehand to kill Chen Xiang, but after confirming the information was indeed true, one by one they left. Even a 9th level True Martial Realm martial artist was killed by Chen Xiang; they have not even reached the True Martial Realm, and even those who had, they had just stridded into the True Martial Realm, weren't they just seeking their death?

However, some people didn't leave; they believed Chen Xiang had killed Lu Shang by luck, because they heard that during the fight, a lightning suddenly flashed, and Chen Xiang had relied on this Lightning to kill Lu Shang, which made the whole matter seem plausible. Otherwise, with just a twenty year old inexperienced brat, it would be absolutely impossible to kill an elder at the 9th level of the True Martial Realm. Many of them took a firm stance with this statement, otherwise, it would give everyone a very big blow.

Chen Xiang, at that time, had relied on Long Xueyi's strength and casted the [Thunderbolt Cut] from the [Dragonslayer's Seven Killing Cut], inciting the lightning, and only with the lightning force did he cleaved that strike!

Chen Xiang had made an appearance after disappearing for three months, and suddenly did such a big thing. This disturbed the entire Chenwu Mainland. Before, many families and sects were seeking for Chen Xiang and didn't find him, and now they knew Chen Xiang was in the Extreme Martial Sect; one by one everyone came to seek Chen XIang because Chen Xiang had crippled many True Martial Realm martial artists in the Black Tortoise Mysterious Realm. It was similar to cutting off a piece of meat of many families.

"Quickly payout Chen Xiang! This guy's heart is as poisonous as snakes and scorpions; he definitely must be cultivating some demonic evil skill, that's why he is so powerful! He is not righteous, in the Black Tortoise Mysterious Realm, he had crippled a True Martial Realm junior of my Li Family, who we have nurtured him with a lot of effort." A middle-aged man yelled.

These families had spent heavily to nurture their juniors, afterwards, they sent them to major sects, made them grow stronger, before calling them back to the family. These True Martial Realm martial artists were very important for these families to grow magnificently.

"Correct, your Extreme Martial Sect is the first sect of the Chenwu Mainland, however, you are harboring this villain, quickly make Chen Xiang come out!"

"Until Chen Xiang is not dead, we will not leave!"

"He is a devil who crippled more than hundred True Martial Realm martial artists, we will definitely hack him into pieces!"

"..."

Many people have gathered at the entrance of the Extreme Martial Sect, swearing and screaming. They didn't mention in the slightest bit that these True Martial Realm disciples first tried to rob Chen Xiang, as if Chen Xiang, for no apparent reason, had crippled off those True Martial Realm martial artists.

After Chen Xiang killed Lu Shang and Lu Zhengnan, he was resting for a few good days in the Extreme Dan King Courtyard. Because Lu Shang first acted against Chen Xiang, Chen Xiang didn't suffer any repercussions for killing him. And, the most important point was, Gu Dongchen and Wu Kaiming confirmed Lu Shang first planned to kill Chen Xiang!

Although many large families came here to crusade against Chen Xiang, however, the Extreme Martial Sect's disciples felt Chen Xiang brought fame to the Extreme Martial Sect, and hence, it resulted in conflict between the Beast Martial Sect and the True Martial Sect again and again. Chen Xiang had crippled many True Martial Realm martial artists all at once, and this brought a great satisfaction to the disciples of the Extreme Martial Sect.

Many people knew Chen Xiang crippled those disciples because they wanted to rob Chen Xiang, and that was the only reason he acted. Otherwise, why would he even cripple the disciples of the Extreme Martial Sect, and this point have been confirmed by many True Martial Realm disciples of the Divine Weapon Heavenly Empire.

And regarding this point, Liu Menger strongly defended Chen Xiang, thence, those disciples of the Divine Weapon Heavenly Empire testified.

"These guys mouth are filled with virtue and morality, as if these crippled guys were saints. These bastards wanted to rob me. I was too lazy to even act against them! I'm truly regretting not silencing those guys!" Chen XIang was extremely furious. From a crystal ball, he could see those guys at the entrance shouting.

"What are you up to?" Elder Dan looked up at those beautiful flowers blooming on the Azure Profound Tree, "You better stay here honestly, let these rumour pass!"

Chen Xiang slapped his thigh and repled, "No way, I'm going to go out. You go and call little bald, you two accompany me outside, take a look at how your martial uncle play with them."

Chen Xiang had returned to his peak, however, Long Xueyi was still resting. She had eaten half of the Earth Core Divine Fruit from the Netherworld Abyss, and only due to it was she able to advance by leaps and bounds.

"What are you going to do?" Elder Dan asked.

"Soon you will know how I will resolve everything. However, I'm worried about those shameless guys, at that time, I might get attacked! That's why you and little bald have to come and pressure them." Chen Xiang raised the corner of his lips as a sly smile appeared on his face.

Seeing that smile of Chen Xiang, Elder Dan knew someone was in big trouble!

Wu Kaiming had arrived; he didn't recommend Chen Xiang to face those noisy guys seeking trouble, however, Chen Xiang insisted on going. He obviously could not defy his young martial uncle, and in order to suppress those people, Wu Kaiming called many True Disciples of the Extreme Martial Sect; there were some who had surpassed the True Martial Realm. Although they were not going to fight, they could always give their support in gaining prestige.As the gate of the Extreme Martial Sect opened, those originally loud screams suddenly all quieted down. After the gate was opened, a mighty pressure pressed down upon them, making those people quickly retreat at least a few steps.

Suddenly, many people surged out from the gate. Furthermore, each and every one of them was very strong. The crowd couldn't help but be worried, if the Extreme Martial Sect, regardless of righteousness, arrested all of them and killed them, then their families wouldn't have any say in the matter.

The majority of the those who came to crusade against Chen Xiang were high level figures of various families, even the patriarch and elders of families came. Their strength was above the True Martial Realm, but now faced with so many powerful True Disciples from the Extreme Martial Sect, they lacked self-confidence in their hearts. At the same time, they were secretly shocked at the strength of the Extreme Martial Sect.

Chen Xiang also didn't expect Wu Kaiming to actually call a good twenty to thirty True Disciples. Also, many of them were stronger than the 9th level of the True Martial Ream, a few of them were even in Extreme Realms. Such a lineup was very scary, the crowd was nearly scared to death.

Those who came to crusade against Chen Xiang, noticed the masked Elder Dan as well as a bald man with white eyebrows and a beard. All of them quivered and they were all suddenly drenched in a cold sweat. These were two of the top figures in the Extreme Martial Sect, and Chen Xiang walked beside them!

Contrary to everyone's expectations, Elder Dan and Wu Kaiming, these level of figures, actually stood up for Chen Xiang, this made everyone hesitate.

"Weren't you all looking for me, some things are better said in person. If I remember correctly, I didn't kill those people, just crippled them. It shouldn't be that difficult for them to personally come here! This matter is between me and them, make those people come and stand in front of me. Let's take a look at who's to blame!" Chen Xiang coldly said. With both his hands behind his back, he stepped forward and gazed over those people.

"You better not talk nonsense, the disciples of the Divine Weapon Heavenly Empire have confirmed that your people had wanted to rob Chen Xiang first. Him crippling them is also a matter of course!" Wu Kaiming sneered. He stared at those people, just one glance of his made these people not dare to release their anger.

Chen Xiang loudly shouted, "Speak, why are you not speaking now? Before didn't you all curse me very enjoyably? Said I was devil lord, said I was unethical, said I was evil... This is equal to slandering me."

While speaking, Chen XIang's slaughtering heart following his mood fluctuations and erupted with a tremendous amount of Slaughter Qi. These people were suddenly extremely scared and alarmed, and quickly retreated even further.

"According to the junior of my Li Family that you crippled, you attacked him for no reason whatsoever. He didn't even try to rob you, he only stayed on the island to explore for treasure." A middle-aged man took a deep breath, and spoke loudly, "The Divine Weapon Heavenly Empire's disciples are not speaking the truth, I think you've brought them over to your side."

Others also steeled their hearts as they all started shouting one by one.

"If you didn't hurt our children for no reason, we wouldn't have posted so high a bounty for you!"

"Exactly, your Extreme Martial Sect is relying on numbers for advantage, this is savage and unreasonable!"

"Chen Xiang, you better give us an explanation!"

Chen Xiang frowned, and said in a heavy tone, "You call those crippled guys of yours over, I'll give everyone a satisfactory explanation."

"Don't expect us to do that! Is it not enough that you have crippled them? You also want to stab and poke at their wounds?" A man shouted.

Elder Dan, Wu Kaiming and the others only observed because Chen Xiang said he wanted to deal it himself and didn't need them to intervene. They also wanted to take a look at how their young martial planned to deal with these guys in the end.

Chen Xiang suddenly took out a Building Foundation Dan, and said, "This is a Building Foundation, whoever admits that their people wanted to rob me, I will give this Building Foundation Dan to them."

That crowd of people suddenly quieted down. Everyone glanced at each other, having some hesitation. Although these people hadn't seen a Building Foundation Dan before in their lives, they had seen a few pictures in the book. They also knew that Chen Xiang had won three Building Foundation Dans from the Lu Family. A single Building Foundation Dan was worth a good few hundred thousands crystal stones. If given to a 10th level Mortal Martial Realm martial artist, it could even allow them to enter True Martial realm. If it were auctioned, five to six hundred thousand crystal stones was nothing difficult to obtain.

Although these families could afford a few hundred thousand crystal stones, the Building Foundation Dan was a rare dan with no definite market price. At this point, all of them were faced with a great temptation.

Seeing these people completely silent, Chen Xiang again took out another Building Foundation Dan and coldly smiled.

"Two, if someone admits their own family member wanted to rob me, I will give them these two Building Foundation Dans. There are so many people in here as witness, I will absolutely not go back on my words!"

Upon seeing this, Elder Dan secretly clenched her teeth and quickly transmitted to Chen Xiang, "You might as well as give these two Building Foundation Dans to me, I will help you deal with them!"

Chen Xiang replied back, "I'm not someone who will suffer loss, little girl just see how this martial uncle will deal with them!"

Suddenly a middle-aged man shouted, "I admit that our family disciple indeed fabricated the facts and deceived me. Just a moment ago, after thinking about it, I felt his words had a lot of flaws and the Divine Weapon Heavenly Empire's disciples are honest. What they said should be true, and indeed our family disciple wanted to snatch your treasure first."

This man's words made many people curse him in their hearts. Just a moment ago, this very person insisted that Chen Xiang had crippled family member for no reason. However, now for two Building Foundation Dans, he completely turn his back on his family member. They didn't expect this man to actually be so thick skinned.

Chen Xiang smiled, "So you are not going to pursue the matter?"

That man nodded, "Not going to be pursued!"

They were already crippled, to pursue this matter would also not result in any better conditions. All he had to do was just say few words and he could get two Building Foundation Dans, why not do it?

"What is your name? I'll have to remember which family is speaking and that they're not going to pursue me!" Chen Xiang asked.

"I'm Li Chang from the Li Family of the True Martial Province, I'm an elder of Li Family, and can make Li Family not dwell on this matter." That middle-aged man immediately replied, while staring at those two Building Foundation Dans in Chen Xiang's hand.

Before, the ones who cursed most fiercely were the members of the Li Family. However, now they were also the first to change their stance. Chen Xiang already knew these people came here to ask for compensation, because he had a lot of precious things. These sorts of people had long been eyeing them.

Chen Xiang relying on money to prove his innocence was also a normal thing to do

Chen Xiang happily smiled and said, "Good, these Building Foundation Dans are now yours. However, you have to remain here."

As the two Building Foundation Dans Chen Xiang threw over landed on Li Chang's hands, his hands slightly trembled. He had lived for so long, yet it was still first time touching the Building Foundation Dans, moreover, two at once!

The Extreme Martial Sect's members were also very surprised, they had not expected Chen Xiang to actually use this kind of method to resolve the problem. This made them quite disappointed, at the same time, they also felt their hearts ache. Two Building Foundation Dans were so cheap to this young man.

"Chen Xiang, the Li Family is Li Family, and our Luo Family is different." A middle-aged man suddenly shouted. He was very envious, he didn't expect this Lu Shang to actually be so fast to speak. Even more so for him to be so thick skinned, as well as obtaining two Building Foundation Dans.

One by one, those people started shouting.

Chen Xiang slightly smiled, and took out four Building Foundation Dans. The instant these four Building Foundation Dans appeared, everyone continuously rushed to admit their family disciple was wrong at first, and wanted to rob Chen Xiang.

A good fifty to sixty people had come. Of course, Chen Xiang would not give all of them Building Foundation Dans. Instead, Chen Xiang just smiled and said, "Thank you everybody for proving my innocence." After he finished speaking, he retrieved those Building Foundation Dans.

Those people were dumbfounded. At this time, they remembered that Chen Xiang hadn't expressed that he would give them these four Building Foundation Dans like before. Moreover, because they were worried other people might get in front of them, they all hurried to admit their own juniors fault.

Chen Xiang grinned and said, "Rest assured, I won't let you go back empty-handed. I will reward those four Building Foundation Dans for the head of Li Chang. As long as someone kills him, I'll give them these four Building Foundation Dans!"

Four Building Foundation Dans; it was but worth two to three million crystal stones and was actually given as a reward for one True Martial Realm martial artist. It was very generous; even rewards of those major sects was not so much.

When Li Chang heard this, his complexion suddenly changed. He immediately raised his guard, in his heart, he was cursing Chen Xiang. While the others had deathly stares at Li Chang, they were considering whether or not they should act!

The bounty on Chen Xiang was in itself ten million crystal stones, but now, no one dared to move their hands against him because Chen Xiang was at the entrance of the Extreme Martial Sect. If Chen Xiang was outside, these people would have already swarmed him.

"Li Chang is mine!" An old man coldly said as he took out a long blade. Cold Qi started overflowing from the long blade continuously, and the crowd could not help but spread out.

"Wang Lu, are you serious?" Li Chang was slightly startled as he loudly shouted. At the same time, he slowly and vigilantly retreated.

Chen Xiang, in his heart, was laughing; he knew all these people came from the same place, and all of them belonged to various great families As long as they were part of a great family, there would always be some kind of conflict between them. It was to the point that even some of them could not wait to find an opportunity to finish each other.

Elder Dan, Wu Kaiming and the other elders could not help but praise Chen Xiang's methods. However, Chen Xiang had now taken out six Building Foundation Dans, and this was not worth the candle.

"Of course I'm serious. Your Li Family originally had enmity with our Wang Family, so what if I kill you!" Wang Lu made a sinister laugh, and, with a very unusual step, he instantly arrived beside Li Chang. He waved that long blade bursting with cold Qi in his hands and fiercely cleaved downwards.

At this moment, a gust of cold wind blew towards all four directions; everyone could not help but shiver from the cold. Chen Xiang noticed that Wang Lu was in the 3rd level of the True Martial Realm, meanwhile, Li Chang was in the 2nd level of the True martial Realm; there was a great disparity between them! No wonder Li Chang's complexion was full of fear.

In just few seconds, Li Chang was hacked by three blade strikes. However, his wounds were devoid of blood; they were sealed in ice, and fortunately, all of this happened in front of the entrance of the Extreme Martial Sect which had plenty of space, allowing him to cast his skills.

Under normal circumstances, there would always be a large gap between 2nd level and 3rd level True Martial Realm martial artists. A 2nd level facing someone at the 3rd level would be completely suppressed and could do nothing to fight back. During the battle, Li Chang could do nothing but dodge, and even escaping was not an option.

Of course if it was Chen Xiang, this abnormal facing a common 3rd level True Martial Realm martial artist, the scenery would be completely reversed. If Chen Xiang used the Azure Dragon Slaughtering Devil Blade and the Black Tortoise Adamantyl Armor, almost all ordinary 3rd level True Martial Realm martial artists wouldn't be able to do anything but wait for their demise.

"Wang Lu, I, Li Chang, even if I die, will not let you have it easy!" Li Chang viciously shouted. Regardless of that fleeting strength released from the long blade, he still punched out, and as the long blade's thrust came over, he blasted a punch at Wang Lu's dantian with all his might. A burst of Qi waves broke out, shaking the ground from the aftershock. Meanwhile, Lu Chang's chest was also pierced.

Wang Lu had not expected Li Chang to actually exhaust all of his strength before death, opting to ruthlessly punch him. He retreated a few steps while blood flowed out from the corners of his mouth. After the cold Qi from the blade pierced Li Chang's body, everything in his body was frozen by the cold Qi; he was already frozen to death.

Wang Lu pulled out his knife from Li Chang and retrieved the two Building Foundation Dans. Afterwards, he covered his abdomen and coldly smiled. Although he suffered some serious injury, he still earned big time. In addition to the four Building Foundation Dans from Chen Xiang, he had altogether six Building Foundation Dans, so he felt killing Lu Chang was totally worth it!

Seeing this frightening scene, although many were lamenting in their heart because of the death of a True Martial Realm martial artist, many were actually more jealous. Wang Lu had obtained six Building Foundation Dans, and if it was used with caution, even three True Martial Realm martial artists could be nurtured. All of them hated themselves for being weaker than Wang Lu, otherwise, they would have already acted.

All these people before came united to crusade against Chen Xiang, however, now they were fighting among themselves for the Building Foundation Dans. They were brutally killing each other, and it was evident that in these people's eyes, the interest of their family wa more important!

Wang Lu came in front of Chen Xiang and said, "I killed Li Chang, my reward?"

Chen Xiang took out four Building Foundation Dans, and after pondering for a moment, he said, "Before I give you, I want to ask you a question, and you have to answer me honestly. Or else I will not give it to you!

Wang Lu frowned, from his wrinkled face, it was evident that he was slightly angry. He coldly replied, "Ask!"

"Did you know that I crippled those True Martial Realm martial artists only because they wanted to rob me?"

Chen Xiang was intently observing Wang Lu.

"No!" Wang, Lu after thinking for a while, replied.

Chen Xiang sneered, "So now are you also going to hold me accountable for crippling your Wang Family disciples?"

"I am not going to hold you accountable. Are you going to give me the Building Foundation Dans or not? Or is it you're going to go back on your words in front of so many people?" Wang Lu in his heart was extremely furious.

"Don't worry, I'll give it to you, I just wanted to prove my innocence! I ask you, a while ago, you and Li Chang had the most conspicuous voice as you called me devil and all sort of things, why are you suddenly not pursuing the matter anymore? So to say, you were slandering me before, right?" Chen Xiang asked.

"I admit, before we have truly slandered you, but then..."

"Enough!" Chen Xiang's voice became heavy as a monstrous Slaughter Qi suddenly surged out from his body. Everyone only saw an azure flash, before a blood fountain shot out as Wang Lu's head fell on the ground.

Blood dripping from the azure gant blade, while Wang Lu's body and head was lying in a pool of blood, Chen Xiang actually killed Wang Lu, this action of his was totally out of everyone's expectation, even more so for Wang Lu, that was the only reason Chen Xiang was so quickly able behead him.

Chen Xiang coldly smiled and stared at those people who came for him, "In the end, he had slandered me, you all have heard him admitting himself that he had slandered me!"

These people's heart started beating rapidly; they could not help but be horrified!

From Wang Lu's headless corpse, Chen Xiang retrieved the two Building Foundation Dans. Looking at his actions, everyone could not help but admire his methods. At first it appeared he had lost the Building Foundation Dans, however, now he not only prevented himself from suffering any loss, he had also made these people admit themselves from their own mouth that he did nothing wrong. At the same time, he had also made Wang Lu kill Li Chang, and at last, he had a just cause for killing Wang Lu.

"Previously, when I took out four Building Foundation Dans, you said so yourself that your family's juniors were at fault first. Are you still not going to leave? Or is it you want to stay here to join two on their funeral? I don't mind killing a few more!" Chen Xiang, with a deadpan look, glanced at all of those people.

"Things have been resolved. Previously, you yourselves have admitted to the fact that your disciples were wrong, and you also said so yourself, you no longer held Chen Xiang accountable. All of us have clearly heard it." Wu Kaiming said in a clear voice.

"If you dare to lie, then don't blame me for not being polite. Don't harass my Extreme Martial Sect's disciples!" Elder Dan's voice sounded cold, it was brimming with Slaughter Qi.

These people moaned and groaned in their heart. However, they felt they were a lot better than Wang Lu and Li Chang, at least, they were not dead. All of them had previously thought Chen Xiang was a young and frivolous guy, however, contrary to their expectations, his subtlety was too deep, and just with few actions, he had neatly solved everything, not to mention the fact that they also could not refute anything anymore.

After returning to the Extreme Dan King Courtyard, Chen Xiang laid on a couch and looked at those flowers glittering in azure aura on the Azure Profound Tree, waiting for the tree to bear fruits.

Elder Dan also often came to visit. Those were but forty Azure Profound Fruits, and an extremely rare fruit at that. However, now the speed of their growth was even faster than ordinary fruits.

"I say woman, why have you been visiting a man's house alone so frequently? Even more so tightly covered." Chen Xiang teased upon seeing Elder Dan came again.

"Humph, this Extreme Dan King Courtyard is my domain! Wherever I want to go, I'll go!" Elder Dan retorted with a cold snort, before raising her head to look at those Azure Profound Flowers. She have been waiting for them to bear fruits.

Chen Xiang smiled and said, "Don't look, they are not yours. As the owner of this tree, I'm not worried, why the fuck are you so anxious!"

"I can look at the flowers can't I?" Elder Dan replied.

"Do you like these flowers? I, your martial uncle, can pick one for you." Chen Xiang said, as he was about to jump, Elder Dan hastily stopped him.

"DON'T! One of those flowers is equivalent to one Azure Profound Fruit!"

After realizing Elder Dan was really in need of the Building Foundation Dans, Chen Xiang asked, "Why do you need so many Building Foundation Dans?"

"I have my own reasons!" Elder Dan replied in low voice, she looked around for a bit and then left.

Chen Xiang looked at those beautiful azure flowers before jumping and picking one, afterwards, he left towards Elder Dan's room.

As Elder Dan opened the door, she was startled for a second before tenderly shouting, "You idiot, you really plucked one?"

Chen Xiang giggled and said, "You often came to see those flowers, don't you like them? This is a present from me!" The flower in his hand was indeed beautiful, although it was separated from the tree, it was still glittering with an azure aura. Moreover, wafting in was a slight flowery fragrance.

"You...humph, you really are an idiot!" Elder Dan was extremely furious. However, she didn't know why but she was feeling sweet and warm in her heart.

"If you don't want it, then I can give it to Qianqian." Chen Xiang pursed his lips. As he was about to take his leave, Elder Dan grabbed him.

"Who says I don't want it!" Elder Dan snatched that flower and lightly stroked it before taking a whiff. Though she was distressed in her heart, she was very happy as well. She was quite pleased with herself, after all, it was the first time someone was gifting her a flower, and such a precious flower at that!

"Take off your mask then!" Chen Xiang couldn't help but ask this again, he truly wanted to see the appearance of this mysterious female.

"Humph!"

Elder Dan tenderly snorted, before closing the door on his face.

"There truly is no payment for a good deed!" Chen Xiang kicked the door before taking his leave.

Seeing all this, Su Meiyao somewhat jealously said, "Good brother, sister has kissed your cheeks already but I've never ever received any flowers from you!"

Bai Youyou also coldly snorted and said, "Humph, that masked-woman has not even revealed her face, yet you still gave her such a gift!"

Long Xueyi also spoke in a low tone, "Exactly, completely biased! I've helped you a good number of times and you've not given me any flowers!"

A woman's jealousy was very strong, Chen Xiang now finally realized this point. Even Bai Youyou, this cold beauty, was like this.

"Hei hei, however, I've bought you a lot of beautiful clothes and jewelry. If you want flowers, I'll immediately go now and pluck one for you!" Chen Xiang replied with a laugh.

Of course, Su Meiyao and others were just casually saying this and upon hearing Chen Xiang;s response, they hastily stopped him. That flower was the base for the Azure Profound Fruits, picking one was equivalent to wasting one Azure Profound Fruit! However, Chen Xiang still plucked a few other beautiful flowers and gave to these three beauties. He knew that women would often superficially say they do not want something however, in their hearts they very much wanted it.

Every time he bought clothes to them, they always said it was enough, we have too many already. However, whenever they got their hands on the new clothes, their happiness was completely obvious.

...

Chen Xiang went over to the square with the notice boards to look at the new rules.

The three thousand martial courtyards of the Extreme Martial Sect were completely rectified and turned into fifty huge martial courtyards. At this point, no one was allowed to go out, while everyone could only remain in their respective martial courtyards. The Extreme Dan Courtyard's disciples and a few other individuals with special circumstances were an exception. This was done in order to strengthen the interactions and relations between disciples.

Now there were a total of only fifteen Inner Martial Courtyards. The overall strength of these fifteen martial courtyards could be said to be relatively the same. However, the disciples in these fifteen martial courtyards still felt somewhat out of sort.

In order to boost the competition within the Extreme Martial Sect, various new things were introduced, all of which could stimulate the disciples to strive to improve their cultivation. For instance, martial courtyards, although they did not have rankings, were divided into golden martial courtyards, silver martial courtyards and bronze martial courtyards according to the color of their number plates. Golden martial courtyards were obviously the best, the disciples of these martial courtyards were very diligent, and it was evident from the number of missions they had completed, the many awards from various competitions, and so on. Silver martial courtyards and bronze martial courtyards though were slightly worse.

"Holy shit, in order to get the golden number plate, the disciples of the respective martial courtyards have to complete a thousand level-10 missions. If disciples want to become disciples of the golden martial courtyards, they have to complete a hundred level-10 missions! What the fuck is this!?" Yun Xiaodao roared after seeing the new content on the notice board.

The missions were divided into levels 1 to 10, with level 10 being the hardest.

"We need to complete ten thousand level-1 missions before becoming golden disciples, how can there be so many missions to complete?" Looking at those numbers, Zhu Rong was completely confused. He was afraid to do any mission, in his opinion it was a unrewarding task.

Chen Xiang smiled and said, "The Extreme Martial Sect seems to be lacking crystal stones. In the entire Chenwu Mainland, few things could tempt sect disciples to do the job."

"Don't expect me to do so many missions, I'll just finish one once every year, that's all." Zhu Rong was in fact very lazy. To make him do somethings thousands, or even hundreds of times was simply asking for his life.

"Every year the golden disciples will get five hundred True Elemental Dans and a million crystal stones as benefit! The golden martial courtyard's disciples who completes more tasks compared with the others will also get very generous benefits!" Looking at this, Yun Xiaodao could not help but be astonished.

"Motherfucker, this father must get hold of some of the prestige of being a golden disciple!" After seeing this, Zhu Rong's eyes almost popped out. The benefits golden disciples obtained were terrifying good.

Xu Weilong pointed at one region and said, "The level-5 missions can be taken in groups of two or less, level-6 to level-9 allows fifty people at most, while level-10 missions can be done by a team of a hundred. In consideration of our current strength, we can at most do level-5 missions! If two people go, it will also be very efficient!"

A hundred people completing one level-10 missions, was regarded as everyone completing once, which was rather good.

They suddenly looked at Chen Xiang, if they were with Chen Xiang, then it would be very easy.

"Don't look at me! If I'm together with you, you'll only be more dependent on me, and that's not good for your future growth!" Chen Xiang scoffingly said, "I'll go together with Wu Qianqian, don't expect me to go with you!"

"Hoes before bros, fuck you!" Xu Weilong and the trio cursed in unison .

These dans simply didn't get in the eyes of Chen Xiang. Whether he went or not didn't matter to him, he could get hold of a mission to refine many dans once in awhile. Because of this, it would be hard to say which year or month he would be able to get the golden disciple title.

"Look here, there is also an arena ranking. Ten wins in a row and you can get the title of bronze warrior, get a streak of thirty and you can get silver warrior, a streak of fifty and there's the golden warrior. The golden warriors have the opportunity to learn divine martial skills personally from the Dean." Yun Xiaodao shouted.

"A winning streak of fifty is not that easy! Moreover, the arrangement of battle is done by a lottery. If someone is faced with Chen Xiang or another kind of freak, wouldn't they be completely done for?" Zhu Rong shook his head. Although the benefits of a golden warrior was rather good, achieving it was not that easy.

Xu Weilong shouted, "Look here, this King Martial Courtyard, is a special place just for outstanding disciples. As well as any bronze disciples who have the silver warrior title or higher! This King Martial Courtyard's chief is the Dean!!!"

"Interesting!" Chen Xiang rubbed his chin. This update of rules suddenly made him eager to make trouble. He secretly praised these new rules of the Extreme Martial Sect, it was indeed very difficult to inspire people to fight but these new set of rules had indeed accomplished this!

"Squinted dragon, let's make a team!" Zhu Rong hand draped over Xu Weilong's shoulder, "You've already seen Lao Zhu's luck."

Yun Xiaodao moaned, "I'm in trouble, I'll need to group up with my fucking wife!"

Chen Xiang laughed, "Right, you've been married for so long but none of us have seen your wife before!"

"Best not to see." Yun Xiaodao heaved a sigh.

The Martial Courtyards had already been reformed. Chen Xiang along with Yun Xiaodao and the others entered the new martial courtyard, and arrived at the arranged place for them. It was very small, to be exact, it was a small house for a few people to live in. Most of the area was used to construct a number of arenas and a few places to practice.

What made Chen Xiang confused was that there were actually two very beautiful girls in here. One was Zhu Rourou, Zhu Rong's sister, while the other one was Yun Suyi, Yun Xiaodao's sister.
