(Little Rice Dumpling's combat strength has finally broken through the limit.)
Information spread very quickly in the White World.
In particular, the speed at which some major events spread was as fast as lightning.
The Thousand King Gathering had ended long ago, and the results had spread throughout the White World in the shortest time possible. Although the Zhao Clan was not a very powerful clan, they were not weak either. They were considered a mid-tier clan, so they naturally received the news as soon as possible.
Little Jiandi Chen Zong was the most outstanding person in the Thousand King Gathering. Although he left midway, it was proven that his strength was shocking, surpassing that of an ordinary Ninth Transformation Dao Manipulation Realm cultivator.
Therefore, when Chen Zong wanted to leave, the two from the Zhao Clan did not dare to stop him. Firstly, they were not as strong as him. Even though they had not seen it with their own eyes, they were still afraid. Secondly, Chen Zong was a true disciple of the Will Heavenly Palace.
The Zhao Clan was invincible under normal circumstances due to Zhao San's identity as a true disciple of the Will Heavenly Palace.
Since this matter involved another true disciple of the Will Heavenly Palace, it was not something they could handle. No matter what, they had to report it to the clan, and then the clan would inform Zhao San.
As for Chen Zong, he brought Wang Kun away to find a place to treat Wang Kun's injuries.
After his injuries were healed, Wang Kun flipped his palm and a bright red fruit appeared in his palm. There were silver patterns circling around the fruit, forming a unique rune brand on it. It emitted traces of wondrous energy fluctuations.
The Heart Refining Fruit!
"Brother Chen Zong, if it were not for you this time, I am afraid I would not have been able to escape." Although Wang Kun was very reluctant, he decisively handed the fruit to Chen Zong.
"Brother Wang, you should know very well what this fruit means to you." Chen Zong did not take it, but asked with a smile.
Wang Kun knew very well.
Back then, he had failed to ascend the Divine Mountain. After all these years of training and some opportunities, his cultivation had reached the Fourth Transformation Dao Manipulation Realm, and his mind had been sharpened.
Even so, he was not very confident that he could successfully ascend the Divine Mountain.
However, if he were to consume the Heart Tempering Fruit and temper his soul, he might just be able to reach the Celestial Mountain and become the direct disciple of the Heavenly Will Palace.
Therefore, the Heart Refining Fruit was extremely important to Wang Kun.
"I know. However, if Brother Chen did not step forward to save me, not only would I have lost the Heart Refining Fruit, I might even have lost my life," Wang Kun said resolutely.
If he continued to run, it would be difficult for him to escape in the end. With his injuries, even if he fought to the death, he would at most drag someone down with him.
"The Heart Refining Fruit is related to whether you can pass the test and become the successor of the Heavenly Palace. However, it is of no use to me." Chen Zong smiled and said. That was indeed the case. Chen Zong's mental fortitude had already surpassed the level of Path Manipulation Realm, and the Heart Refining Fruit was just a taste. "Brother Wang, I see you as a friend taking action, so you don't have to do that."
"Thank you, Brother Chen. I can't thank you enough." Wang Kun gritted his teeth and took the Heart Refining Fruit in the end. It was indeed related to his future.
If he lost the Heart Refining Fruit this time and did not have the chance to enter the Heavenly Palace, he did not know how long it would take for him to have enough mental fortitude to cross the Heart Sea.
To pass the test of the Heavenly Palace, it was not a matter of cultivation level or combat strength, but of mental fortitude. Indeed, the higher one's cultivation level, the stronger one's mental fortitude would be. However, the higher one's cultivation level, the stronger one's mental fortitude would be.
Therefore, only by making one's mental fortitude stronger than one's cultivation level could one hope to pass the test and become a true disciple of the Heavenly Palace.
Now, Wang Kun consciously sharpened his mental fortitude, but the results were not very good. His mental fortitude was stronger than his cultivation level, but not by much. However, the Heart Refining Fruit could strengthen his mental fortitude by a large margin.
"Brother Wang, don't worry. I will protect you." Chen Zong smiled and said.
Wang Kun was even more grateful. He sat down cross-legged and consumed the Heart Refining Fruit to strengthen his mental fortitude.
One day and one night later, Wang Kun finished refining the fruit. When he opened his eyes, they shone brightly. He could feel that his mental fortitude had improved by several folds.
The two of them set off for the Heavenly Mountain.
"Brother Wang, I will be waiting for you in the Heavenly Palace." Chen Zong smiled and directly crossed the Heart Sea.
"Don't worry, Brother Chen. I will definitely ascend the Heavenly Mountain and become a true disciple of the Heavenly Palace." Wang Kun looked at Chen Zong's back and clenched his fists.
The Heart Refining Fruit had strengthened his mental fortitude by several folds, giving him a greater chance to cross the Heart Sea and ascend the Heavenly Mountain.
…
Grandpa Zhao was the third brother of the current Zhao Clan's Clan Lord, thus he was called Grandpa Zhao. He was the third uncle of the Zhao Clan's Young Lord.
Grandpa Zhao's real name was Zhao Yisheng. A hundred years ago, he was lucky enough to cross the Heart Sea and ascend the Heavenly Mountain, becoming a reserve true disciple of the Heavenly Palace.
It just so happened that he left the Heavenly Palace to return to the Zhao Clan. Unexpectedly, as soon as he returned, he heard a piece of news.
His nephew had offended a true disciple of the Heavenly Palace.
"The fifth true disciple of the Heavenly Palace, Chen Zong!" Zhao Yisheng's voice became louder and louder, and his expression changed greatly. This made the Zhao Clan Lord feel uneasy.
"Third Brother, what's the background of that Chen Zong?" The Zhao Clan Lord was puzzled. Although there was news that Chen Zong was called Little Jiandi, and was very strong and talented, his third brother was also a true disciple of the Heavenly Palace, and a Ninth Revolution Dao Controlling expert. His battle prowess had long surpassed the normal level.
"His background is great. In the Heavenly Palace, Chen Zong is ranked first on the four lists. His talent is extraordinary and amazing, and he's the fifth disciple of the Heavenly Palace Lord. Whether it's talent, potential, or status, he's not someone I can compare to." Zhao Yisheng said in a deep voice, his expression solemn. "In short, that Chen Zong is not someone I can offend. Perhaps his battle prowess is not inferior to mine now."
The internal information of the Heavenly Palace was generally not disclosed to the public, so Zhao Yisheng didn't explain it very clearly. He only mentioned it briefly, making it sound impressive, but not enough to know more.
However, Zhao Yisheng's tone and expression made it clear that Chen Zong was not someone to be trifled with, and neither was Zhao Yisheng.
This was because in the Heavenly Palace, Zhao Yisheng was an ordinary true disciple, not a true disciple of the five palaces. Both were true disciples, but there was still a difference.
If they had to be divided, Zhao Yisheng was an ordinary true disciple, while Chen Zong was an elite true disciple.
Even if Zhao Yisheng had some confidence in becoming an elite true disciple this time, even if he succeeded, he still couldn't compare with Chen Zong.
Therefore, he couldn't afford to offend Chen Zong. If he did, it would only bring trouble to the Zhao Family.
"Quickly tell me, how did you offend Chen Zong?" Zhao Yisheng asked immediately.
After understanding the cause and effect, he heaved a sigh of relief. It wasn't a big deal, and he didn't directly offend Chen Zong. It should be easy to resolve since he hadn't made a move yet.
"Leave it to me. I'll rush back to the Heavenly Palace to apologize." Zhao Yisheng said and stood up immediately.
"Third Brother, thank you for your hard work." Zhao Family Head understood the urgency of the matter, so he didn't urge him to stay.
"It's no big deal. I'm also a member of the Zhao Family." After Zhao Yisheng finished speaking, he quickly left. He didn't know much about Chen Zong, nor did he know what kind of person Chen Zong was. However, he thought that this matter wasn't serious. It should be fine for him to go and apologize in person.
At the very least, he would have to bleed a little.
Zhao Yisheng hurriedly left the Zhao Family and returned to the Heavenly Palace. Chen Zong just happened to cross the Heart Sea and return to the Heavenly Palace.
"I hope I don't meet Third Senior Sister." Chen Zong thought to himself as he climbed up the Heart Mountain.
Although it had been ten years, he still had a deep memory of what happened back then. If Third Senior Sister knew and wanted to pursue the matter, he might be beaten up. Just thinking about it made him shudder.
Forget it, I can't avoid it.
But when Chen Zong returned to the Heavenly Palace, he first paid a visit to his Master. Only then did he know that Third Senior Sister Yu Wuxia had left the Heavenly Palace to train. As for whether she entered the White World or left the Black and White World to enter the Void, he didn't know.
Training was a topic that every cultivator had to learn in their life.
No expert became a cultivator through closed-door training. Instead, they had to constantly train and train. They had to sharpen themselves through training, pursue the Dao, and strengthen themselves.
Every cultivator had to go through countless trials and tribulations to reach the pinnacle from the initial stage of cultivation.
Closed-Door training was only done when one's training reached a certain level and one's accumulation reached a limit. Only then would one go into closed-door training to sort out one's gains, comprehend everything, and search for a breakthrough.
After he stabilized his cultivation in seclusion, he would set out once again to continue his training.
The Void was vast and mighty. Even Sovereigns couldn't completely explore it. They could still continue training.
Training was the eternal theme of any cultivator.
Knowing that Third Senior Sister Yu Wuxia wasn't here and had gone out to train, Chen Zong subconsciously heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, fortunately.
After bidding farewell to his Master, Chen Zong went straight to the Star Battle Pagoda.
"Now, I should be able to pass the tenth level of the Star Battle Pagoda, right?" Chen Zong thought to himself as his heart surged.
Ten-star battle prowess was equivalent to the Limiteer battle prowess. Even if it was only the Low Limiteer battle prowess, it was still beyond the norm.
Even though his cultivation had broken through and he was confident, Chen Zong still couldn't help but feel a sense of awe when he actually stepped into the Star Battle Pagoda.
This feeling was different from when he challenged the 100th level of White Jade City's unlimited challenges. This was because the opponents in the Star Battle Pagoda were Barbarian Tribe warriors. The Barbarian Tribe warriors were powerful and had shocking killing intent. They also had secret techniques to go all out. These were all things that the White Jade City's unlimited challenges did not have.
Thus, Chen Zong could pass the 100th level of White Jade City's unlimited challenges. However, it wasn't that easy to pass the tenth level of the Star Battle Pagoda.
Along the way, Chen Zong quickly defeated the Barbarian Flood Dragon Tribe warriors on the ninth level. Even if the Barbarian Flood Dragon Tribe warriors ignited their totemic power, it was useless.
On the tenth level, his opponents were still Barbarian Flood Dragon Tribe warriors. The aura they emitted was incomparably cold and terrifying.
