Thunder Martial Chapter 73

Chapter 73 - Punishment Hall's invitation

The Spirit Martial Sect was built according to the mountains, and took up more than five kilometers of land. There were many buildings and elegant buildings there, and when Zi Chen saw the entrance to the Spirit Martial Sect from afar, he finally let out a sigh of relief.

When he left, more than a hundred disciples had flocked over. They were majestic with confidence and dreams in high spirits. However, when they returned, there were only a few dozen people, each of them as cold as eggplants.

Nine out of ten people suffered great casualties, causing the cultivators who missed the trip to the Spiritual Medicine Garden to look at each other. They were glad that they missed this trip to the Spiritual Medicine Garden.

Under the extremely high mortality rate, the disciples who survived had a great harvest.

Once he returned, Chen Feng would leave with the Great Clan Elder. The group of disciples would return and after a few days of making arrangements, they would be able to receive their contribution points.

After the Great Elder sent out the list of spiritual medicines, there were naturally people who would arrange everything. They would then begin to register and verify the contribution points.

The Great Clan Elder had to consider about Zi Chen.

Zi Chen's potential was truly terrifying. It had only been about a year, and he had actually broken through from the fifth level of True Qi to the Ninth Stage of True Qi. Furthermore, his battle power was actually even stronger than Xu Yan's back then.

The Great Elder had to admit that this was a genius. He had seen through it at the time of the selection, but he had never imagined that his potential would be so great, far surpa.s.sing that of Chen Feng at the time.

But unfortunately, this kind of genius was destined to not be able to be nurtured, because he was going against Chen Feng.

"Elder." Unknowingly, Chen Feng had walked in.

"Why are you here?" The Great Elder was surprised.

"I'm just worried, and want to ask the elders how to deal with Zi Chen." Chen Feng asked, staring at the Great Clan Elder with hope.

The Great Elder hesitated. He had not made up his mind yet.

"The sect master has not returned to the Martial Sect yet, so everything that happens here is decided by the elders. Zi Chen colluded with outsiders to kill his fellow sect members and stole their spirit medicine, this is already a hard truth. According to the sect rules, this is a capital punishment." Chen Feng whispered.

The Great Clan Elder frowned, this matter is truly not easy to handle. He does not care about a mere Zi Chen, but he does care about another person. " What did Meng Yao say? "

"What else can she say? It's all in Zi Chen's favor." When he mentioned Su Mengyao, Chen Feng's face was already filled with rage, and said unwillingly: "But we have many witnesses, Zi Chen is simply unable to deny it. Furthermore, with Sect Leader not here, the elders can kill him later."

"Let me think about it. You can leave first." The Great Elder waved his hand, still hesitating.

Chen Feng was extremely unreconciled. As he walked out of the door, he turned his head and said: "Third Grandfather, the people in the family have been waiting for our news the entire time. Zi Chen's talent is too high, if found out by the sect master, it is very likely that he will take us in as his disciple. I have already reached a bottleneck, and Zi Chen's thousand year elixir just so happens to be able to break through. "

After that, Chen Feng left.

As for the Great Elder, who was hesitating, his expression suddenly turned cold. After hearing what Chen Feng had said, he finally made up his mind.

After Zi Chen returned, he locked himself in his room and didn't see anyone.

Amongst them, Chen Feng was the most threatening, so Zi Chen had no choice but to take precautions. Therefore, he had to make the best use of his time and increase his strength.

Opening the bag, the spirit herbs filled his vision, s.h.i.+ning resplendently with dense spirit energy. There were no less than twenty spirit medicines that were at least five hundred years old in front of Zi Chen.

This was Zi Chen's harvest this time. On the trip to the Spiritual Medicine Garden, his harvest was the greatest, and just the medicinal herbs he had ingested already far surpa.s.sed the ones obtained by the War Martial Sect.

Zi Chen arranged the twenty stalks of spirit medicine in succession, then sat cross-legged and swallowed them one by one.

The current him did not need a battle skill, he only needed to increase his strength.

To others, it would probably take a few months to refine, but to Zi Chen, it would only take a few days.

During this period of time, Zi Chen did not eat nor drink, and was constantly refining pills day and night. The rate at which his strength was being raised was extremely slow, but the rate at which his physique underwent transformation was extremely fast.

Strands of silver energy entered his body, easily cleansing his marrow, causing his body to become stronger and tougher.

Just like the waves of the ocean, Zi Chen's body would be washed away by the silver energy every day, the impurities inside would be washed away, and every day, there would be a small transformation.

Zi Chen did not need to comprehend any battle skills, he focused entirely on raising his strength, every minute, every second, he did not want to waste any of it. He only needed two days to refine all of the over twenty five-hundred-year-old medicinal herbs, if news of this spread out, it would be shocking.

During this period of time, he was completely giving it his all to squeeze out all of his potential, but luckily his heart was also very powerful, like a bottomless pit, swallowing all of the spirit medicine's energy, and then quickly sending out an even purer energy. The entire inside of Zi Chen's body rumbled everyday, as though it was a huge wave trying to get rid of the impurities in his body. Zi Chen's body was currently moving towards a pure innate const.i.tution.

Furthermore, the energy which he had absorbed from the snake gall earlier, which had broken through to the middle of the ninth level, was also advancing towards its late stage. After all the energy had been completely refined, Zi Chen's strength had already reached the peak of the ninth level, and he was only a step away from reaching ten stages of true qi.

Two days later, knocking sounds came from the door.

"Who?" Zi Chen opened his eyes. He was very dissatisfied that his cultivation had been interrupted.

"It's me." A deep voice rang out.

It was Miao Kong.

Zi Chen opened the door and entered in a flash.

"What you want, I've already prepared it for you. It really isn't easy." The moment Miao Kong entered, he walked towards the wooden table and took out several porcelain bottles from his bosom.

"How much did you get?" Seeing those porcelain bottles, Zi Chen's eyes lit up.

On the day he returned, he had asked Miao Kong to help him exchange some Zhen Qi Dan s. After all, he had a conflict with Luo Men, and although he had a lot of contribution points, it was inevitable that Luo Men would not cause trouble. Zi Chen did not care about the contribution points, but he cared very much about time.

There was not much time left for him now.

"When I first went to trade, Luo Men actually refused to trade. It was all thanks to Senior Sister Su Mengyao's help that she found some friends, and then changed these things. She told me to tell you that you can use them for now, but in a few days, you'll have more Zhen Qi Dan for yourself." One by one, the porcelain bottles were placed on the table by Miao Kong.

Zi Chen scanned the bottle and already determined the quant.i.ty. A total of twenty bottles.

There were ten Zhen Qi Dan s, and twenty of them added up to two hundred. This was a huge figure. One must know that a year ago, Zi Chen could not even take out a single Zhen Qi Dan. For a 500 year old spirit medicine, Zhao Can sold himself.

But in just a year, Zi Chen had acquired two hundred Zhen Qi Dan, and the five hundred years of spirit medicine he had consumed, had already exceeded fifty.

"Thank you." After swallowing the spirit medicine, the current him needed the Zhen Qi Dan the most.

Two hundred pills would be enough for him to refine for a few days.

"When a cultivator cultivates, they must follow the rules. Haste makes waste. Your speed of refining elixirs is indeed very fast, but the amount of elixirs you refine is too much. Be careful not to suffer any backlash." Before he left, Miao Kong patted on Zi Chen's shoulder.

Zi Chen nodded, showing that he understood.

"You must be careful, the sect has already spread out that Chen Feng wants to deal with you."

Miao Kong finally left.

"Chen Feng, you have caused me trouble time and time again. One day, I will make you regret it." In the room, Zi Chen's gaze instantly turned cold.

Beside the bed, twenty bottles of Zhen Qi Dan s were lined up in a row. Zi Chen sat cross-legged, focused and opened a bottle of Zhen Qi Dan s.

The Zhen Qi Dan melted immediately after it entered her mouth, transforming into a gust of cool air that rushed into's stomach. Soon after, a strong and pure energy surged out and rushed into Zi Chen's body.

Zi Chen was a little anxious. Even after refining several bottles of Zhen Qi Dan, he still did not manage to break through. Instead, his body grew stronger.

His vital energy and blood were extremely vigorous, and once it erupted, he was like a peak level 10 beast, surging violently, but he had not reached the limit that Zi Chen could comprehend.

Even with a const.i.tution at the peak of the tenth level, it was still incomplete. Every time he cultivated, his body would undergo a metamorphosis. Every day, he would undergo a metamorphosis.

On the third day, Zi Chen had already refined five bottles of Zhen Qi Dan, but there were still fifteen left. Time was of the essence, Zi Chen did not want to waste a second, so he opened his eyes and picked up the Zhen Qi Dan, preparing to refine it again, but suddenly, footsteps came from outside.

With his strength becoming stronger, Zi Chen's perception naturally became stronger, even with light footsteps, Zi Chen could still feel it, and then there was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Zi Chen asked coldly.

From the footsteps, he already knew that it was two people, so it was impossible for it to be Miao Kong. Although the footsteps were light, it had a heavy feeling to it.

"Zi Chen, if you are suspected of killing a fellow sect member, Punishment Hall would welcome you." A cold voice came from outside the door.

"Punishment Hall?" Zi Chen's face changed, he did not expect the other party to move so quickly, in just three days, he was about to make a move against him.

The Punishment Hall, the head of the punishment division for the position of Spirit Martial Sect, had always acted impartially and never acted for personal gain. He had even killed a few core disciples who had committed grave mistakes before, and it was said that the hall master of the Punishment Hall was an obstinate old man who hated evildoers as if she were her enemies.

"Are you going out by yourself, or do you want us to go in and invite you?" The cold voice sounded again from outside the door.

"I'm going out." Zi Chen pressed the Zhen Qi Dan under his blanket and then walked out the door with an indifferent expression.

As the door opened, Zi Chen saw the two middle-aged men outside, and his pupils instantly constricted. The man was dressed in red, and had an imposing manner without getting angry.

"Red clothed elder, innate state."

Zi Chen was shocked, he never thought that Punishment Hall would actually send out two Innate Realm Realm elders. It was obvious that they had already heard the guess as to Zi Chen's strength, and was afraid that he wouldn't be able to bring Zi Chen back, so they directly sent out two elders.

"Let's go."

Their expressions were cold and unsmiling like the executioners of the mortal world.

"I am unable to find the way to this. Elders, please lead the way." said in embarra.s.sment. Even though it had been a year since Zi Chen entered the inner sect, he had never pa.s.sed by Spirit Martial Sect, so he had only heard of the Punishment Hall before, but did not know where it was.

"Humph!" The two snorted coldly, and then, one in front and one behind, with Zi Chen in between, they walked towards the Punishment Hall.

Along the way, they met many cultivators.

"Look, that's Zi Chen."

"Why is Zi Chen with the two elders, and also an elder of the Punishment Hall?"

The Punishment Hall Elders all had a murderous aura around them, so they were easy to recognize.

"You don't even know about this? You're too stupid, the sect has long spread this around, Zi Chen colluded with others in the Spiritual Medicine Garden, killed many disciples of the Spirit Martial Sect, and even killed ten disciples of the inner sect."

"What, he's so vicious, killing the ten inner court disciples, is Zi Chen's strength really that strong?"

"Of course he's very strong. Rumor has it that he killed a Xiantian level beast and obtained a thousand year elixir. However, he selfishly stayed behind and caused the sect to lose their bet."

"Sigh, this is too selfish."

When everyone saw Zi Chen heading towards the Punishment Hall, they started a discussion.
