"Fu 'er, the conflict between you and Chen Zong has been written off." Vice-principal Zhao Qingshan said to the woman sitting in front of him in a strict tone, "Chen Zong has been accepted as a disciple by the Marquis of Linshan. You should know what that means."
Zhao Yifu's face was ashen as she clenched her fists.
Chen Zong had actually been accepted as a disciple by the Marquis of Linshan. From then on, he had reached the heavens in one step. Regardless of status or identity, he was above her as a teacher.
She had yet to vent her anger, but such a change had occurred. It was hard to accept.
However, Zhao Yifu had no choice but to swallow her anger.
She couldn't afford to offend the Marquis of Linshan. Her grandfather couldn't afford to offend him either.
In contrast to Zhao Yifu's unwillingness, the disciples of Linshan Courtyard were shocked.
"This kid …" Han Yunfei, who had brought Chen Zong to Mountain View Residence, was dumbfounded when he heard the news. He didn't know what to say.
"Brother Chen … Brother Chen is really too powerful …" Lin Ji was so excited that he was incoherent.
Who was that?
That was the number one expert of Linshan Commandery, the Marquis of Linshan.
"Why wasn't it me …" Some disciples cried out in sorrow. Why was it Chen Zong who was accepted as a disciple by the Marquis of Linshan and not them?
"He was actually accepted as a disciple by the Marquis …" Zhang Zhongling was dumbfounded and shocked. He felt that all his plans were so childish. However, he had no choice but to dispel the idea of continuing to target Chen Zong. However, the Marquis of Linshan had already sent people to investigate. Zhang Zhongling would also be exposed and face the corresponding punishment.
Who in the entire Linshan Commandery would dare to touch the Marquis's disciple?
Even the people of Silver Saber Castle wouldn't dare.
In the face of absolute power, all schemes and tricks seemed so laughable.
"Good kid!" Instructor Liu was first shocked when he heard the news. Then, he felt that it was only natural. After all, the more he interacted with Chen Zong, the more outstanding he felt he was.
In short, the entire Linshan Courtyard was in an uproar because of this news.
Soon after, the news was blown out of the Mountain Overlook Courtyard and into Mountain Overlook City, causing many people in the city to be shocked.
"The Marquis actually accepted a disciple."
"Who is Chen Zong? To think that the Marquis would take a fancy to him and take him in as a disciple. "
"One month later, Master Hou is going to hold a disciple recruitment ceremony for Chen Zong. It seems that Master Hou values this Chen Zong very much."
"He … he was actually taken in as a disciple by the Marquis …" The Zhuge Men were in a daze.
As the news spread, the Silver Saber Castle, the Proud Sword Villa, and other forces also received the news.
Inside the Silver Saber Fort's main castle, the Fort Master Situ Zhan and a group of Elders were present. All of them had grave expressions.
"Jiang Baichen, Bai Zhenhong, and the other disciples all died under Chen Zong's sword. We must avenge them."
"That's right. Not only must we take revenge, but we must also take back the Chaotic Heaven Origin Breaching Energy."
The Sixth Elder and the Seventh Elder said one after another, their faces full of killing intent and hatred.
"Who can withstand the wrath of the Marquis of Linshan?" Third Elder spoke slowly, causing everyone's faces to turn even uglier.
Marquis Linshan!
These three words, this identity, this person was like a mountain that pressed down on the heads of all the cultivators in the Linshan County. Especially for a master like Situ Zhan, the feeling of oppression was even more obvious.
"Unless the Grand Elder takes action, no one in the Silver Saber Fort can compete with the Marquis of Linshan," Second Elder said.
The Grand Elder was the Silver Saber Fort's Grand Fort Master. He was also a Pseudo Transcendent Realm master, but he had left the Silver Saber Fort long ago to find an opportunity to break through to the Transcendent Realm. Therefore, not many people knew about the existence of a Pseudo Transcendent Realm master in the Silver Saber Fort.
"Do we have to admit defeat?" Fourth Elder was very unwilling.
Immediately, all the Elders looked at Fort Master Situ Zhan. He was the true ruler of the Silver Saber Fort.
"Great Elder, what do you think?" Situ Zhan asked.
"Chen Zong was taken in as a disciple by the Marquis of Linshan. Dealing with him is equivalent to dealing with the Marquis of Linshan. This is not wise, "Great Elder said slowly after pondering for a moment," But the Chaotic Heaven Origin Breaching Energy is very important. We must find a way to get it back. "
"I have a plan," Great Elder continued. Everyone's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Isn't the Marquis of Linshan going to hold a Disciple Recruitment Ceremony a month later? That's a good opportunity," Great Elder smiled faintly with a scheming look.
"Great Elder means to take action during the Disciple Recruitment Ceremony?"
"The Fort Master will come forward and make a bet with the Marquis of Linshan. Let the disciples on the Violent Saber List compete with the Marquis of Linshan's disciple with the Chaotic Heaven Origin Breaching Energy as the wager," Great Elder said with assurance, "As for the revenge of the disciple, it can only be taken in the future when the time is right."
Situ Zhan and the other Elders all thought about it.
"Being able to kill Jiang Baichen means that Chen Zong's battle prowess has reached the late-stage of the Three-Star Realm," Second Elder said, "Who should we send to defeat him?"
"In a month, under the guidance of the Marquis of Linshan, Chen Zong's battle prowess should have improved a little. To defeat him, to be on the safe side, we need to have at least the peak of the Three-Star Realm."
"Only the top three on the Violent Saber List can reach the peak of the Three-Star Realm."
Four-star battle prowess was too difficult. In the entire Linshan Commandery, only Shi Huanyue, who ranked first on the Mountaineering List of Linshan Courtyard, could reach it.
"In that case, let's send Yang Tianzhao," Situ Zhan said.
Yang Tianzhao, the number one on the Violent Saber List.
All the Elders nodded. Yang Tianzhao's battle prowess was at the peak of the Three-Star Realm, infinitely close to the Four-Star Realm. Furthermore, he was Situ Zhan's disciple.
At the same time, the Lord of the Proud Sword Manor and the other Elders also gathered together.
However, there was no conflict between the Proud Sword Manor and Chen Zong.
"The Disciple Recruitment Ceremony is a good opportunity. Let Jian 'er challenge Chen Zong and defeat him to become famous in Linshan Commandery," Duan Aoming, the Lord of the Proud Sword Manor, said with a hearty laugh.
"With the Young Lord, Chen Zong will definitely lose." An Elder chuckled in agreement. The other Elders also laughed. Obviously, they were very confident in Jian 'er.
"Chen Zong, hehe. How dare you kill my Demonic Wind Hall's people. I'll let you know my power."
Because of the news released by the Marquis of Linshan, the entire Linshan Commandery was shaken.
Chen Zong was not aware of this. At this moment, he was sitting on the stone roof of the 89th floor of the Mountaineering List.
Although the Marquis of Linshan's main cultivation was not the sword, he had also practiced swordsmanship. He had a unique understanding of swordsmanship and taught it to Chen Zong without any reservation. This gave Chen Zong a lot of inspiration and deepened his understanding of swordsmanship.
After that, the Marquis of Linshan gave Chen Zong special privileges. He could practice all the martial arts and secret techniques in the Martial Arts Pavilion at will. This was another surprise.
For example, Chen Zong could practice the Burning Blood Combat Technique, the Three Changes of Revolving Force, and the Wind Riding Technique.
Thirdly, the Marquis of Linshan taught Chen Zong a very unique technique.
The Little Lonely Mountain Visualization Technique!
When he first heard this name, Chen Zong was confused. He had no idea what technique it was, but after knowing its use, he was ecstatic.
Wuzhen!
Yes, the Little Lonely Mountain Visualization Technique was a technique for Wuzhen.
The [True Martial Dao Comprehending Diagram] that he had comprehended in the Eastern Continent's True Martial Alliance had given Chen Zong a message. A true True Martial Realm martial artist had to comprehend the truth. Without comprehending the truth, one could not be considered a true True Martial Realm martial artist, or rather, an incomplete True Martial Realm.
What exactly was Wuzhen?
Chen Zong did not know. He lacked sufficient information.
How to Wuzhen?
Chen Zong did not know either.
Now that he had obtained the Little Lonely Mountain Visualization Technique, he finally understood.
But at the same time, Chen Zong had new doubts. According to his master, the Marquis of Linshan, there were very few martial artists who could Wuzhen even in the True Martial Realm.
First, it was talent. The essence, energy, and spirit reaching perfection was the foundation of Wuzhen. It was a necessary condition. It was not easy to achieve. Many True Martial Realm martial artists had not even reached the Unity of Essence, Energy, and Spirit, let alone reaching perfection.
Second, it was Wuzhen techniques. Any Wuzhen technique was incomparably precious. The majority of True Martial Realm martial artists could not obtain it.
Now, Chen Zong was trying to cultivate the Little Lonely Mountain Visualization Technique.
According to his master, Wuzhen techniques were divided into three levels: low-level, mid-level, and high-level. The higher the level of Wuzhen technique, the better the effect of Wuzhen, but the more precious it was.
The Little Lonely Mountain Visualization Technique was a low-level Wuzhen technique.
It was not that the Marquis of Linshan did not want to give Chen Zong a high-level Wuzhen technique, but he only had the Little Lonely Mountain Visualization Technique. In fact, in the entire Cloud Dragon Dynasty, only the royal family had a mid-level Wuzhen technique. It was ten times more precious than a low-level Wuzhen technique.
"Using the body as a mountain, feel the heaven and earth."
This was the first sentence of the Little Lonely Mountain Visualization Technique.
It was easy to understand. Using oneself as a mountain, imagine yourself as a lone mountain, and from there, feel the heaven and earth.
Understanding was understandable, but doing it was very difficult.
A person was a person, and a mountain was a mountain. How could one treat oneself as a mountain?
The Marquis of Linshan also explained the difficulties of cultivating the Little Lonely Mountain Visualization Technique to Chen Zong.
The first point was to visualize oneself as a lone mountain.
The second point was to use the lone mountain to feel the heaven and earth.
Only when both points were achieved could one truly achieve Wuzhen.
"Your essence, energy, and spirit have reached perfection. You can begin Wuzhen, but Wuzhen is very difficult. It might take you three to five years." This was what the Marquis of Linshan said to Chen Zong.
"If you can achieve Wuzhen, your battle strength will increase by at least one star." This was also what the Marquis of Linshan said.
Chen Zong was very tempted.
Wuzhen could increase one's battle strength by one star. What a terrifying increase. At the same time, it also showed the difficulty of Wuzhen.
"Using the body as a mountain …"
Chen Zong removed all distracting thoughts and silently recited the Little Lonely Mountain Visualization Technique's incantation again and again, causing his essence, energy, and spirit to become even more concentrated.
Time slowly passed. Chen Zong sat cross-legged quietly, motionless, as if he had turned into a statue.
Gradually, the sun set in the west, and the setting sun shone on Chen Zong's body. It was as if he had put on a golden-red gauze robe. When it shone on his face, it seemed as if there was a divine light.
Suddenly, Chen Zong opened his eyes. His deep eyes emitted a sharp brilliance that was as sharp as a sword, as if it was piercing through the setting sun that was shining in his face.
"It's actually so difficult." Chen Zong sighed inwardly.
He had spent more than half a day cultivating the Little Lonely Mountain Visualization Technique, but he couldn't find a trace of it.
Although Chen Zong had mentally prepared himself, the difficulty was still too high. One must know that his cultivation had been smooth sailing all the way until now. Even if it was a peerless Earth Level cultivation technique like the Chaotic Heaven Origin Breaking Force, half a day was enough for Chen Zong to comprehend many mysteries. However, there was no progress at all with the Little Lonely Mountain Visualization Technique.
