"Go after him!"
"We can't let him escape."
"How dare he look down on the Imperial Family. We can't let him go."
The disciples of the House of Pure Grace gave chase one by one. However, they were not as strong as Chen Zong, and their speed was much slower than Chen Zong's. The more they chased, the further Chen Zong went. In the end, they failed to catch up.
Chen Zong's endurance was amazing. The pursuers had to stop to rest when they exhausted their strength, but he didn't need to.
After half a day, Chen Zong was already far away from the Feihong Mountain. In order to prevent his tracks from being exposed, Chen Zong directly broke into a mountain and used the complicated terrain of the mountain to cover his tracks.
After going hundreds of miles deep into the mountain, Chen Zong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately, he felt his hair stand on end. His hands landed on the hilts of the two swords at his waist as fast as he could. His eyes narrowed, and a terrifying cold light condensed in them.
Just dozens of meters ahead, on the branch of a small tree that was only a few meters tall, stood a figure in a purple robe. This person had his hands behind his back, and his back was facing Chen Zong. His body was as light as a feather. When the wind blew, the branches swayed up and down, and his whole body seemed to have merged with the small tree.
He turned around and landed lightly on the ground, just like a leaf being blown away by the wind. It was so natural, like moving clouds and flowing water.
This was a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance. He had a warm smile on his face, and the crow's feet at the corner of his eyes were very obvious.
The eyes of the middle-aged man in purple were deep and calm, like an unfathomable abyss. They fell on Chen Zong, as if he wanted to see through Chen Zong. However, the more he looked, the more surprised he became.
"Young friend, don't be nervous. I don't mean any harm." Suppressing the surprise in his heart, the middle-aged man in purple withdrew his gaze. The smile on his face became more obvious, and he spoke in a gentle tone.
"Then what can I do for you?" Chen Zong did not let down his guard because of this. Who knew if the other party did this on purpose to make him relax?
"I really don't mean any harm." The purple-robed middle-aged man naturally noticed Chen Zong's vigilance, but he didn't think it was too much. It was normal. If he wasn't vigilant enough, he might have died already. "My name is Zishan. I don't belong to any Sect. I'm just a Rogue Cultivator. I'm just curious about you."
"A rogue cultivator!" Chen Zong couldn't help but be a little surprised. It could be seen that Zishan was still in the True Martial Realm, but he was able to make him feel threatened. This meant that Zishan's combat power was very strong, maybe even surpassing the four-star level.
This middle-aged man was probably not young. He should be in his forties or fifties. Some martial artists had fortuitous encounters, and their battle prowess would rise to a very high level. However, their potential would be exhausted, and it would be very difficult for them to grow any further.
"Since you're still worried, I won't disturb you any further. Let's talk again next time." While speaking, Zishan cupped his hands at Chen Zong. His body lightly jumped up, and the tip of his foot touched the branch. The branch seemed to be full of tenacity and amazing elasticity. It pressed down and then bounced up again. It flew up into the sky and turned into a purple light. In the blink of an eye, it was far away from Chen Zong.
When the figure turned into a small dot, there was a shocking roar in the sky, and invisible ripples spread out.
Chen Zongfang heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the other party had really left.
If Zishan wanted to deal with him, it would be very troublesome, and he would have to use the Red Thunder Sword.
Thinking of this, Chen Zong increasingly felt that his strength was not enough, and he had too few trump cards. However, there was nothing he could do. Compared to other geniuses, his background, time, and resources were not small.
"Let's find a place to refine ten True Refining Pills." Chen Zong's eyes flashed, and he once again used his movement technique to move forward.
He didn't know how much ten True Refining Pills would increase his cultivation level.
The mountain area was vast, and Chen Zong only stopped after a thousand li. He directly killed an eighth level monster overlord and occupied the lair. After cleaning up a little and getting rid of the unpleasant stench inside, Chen Zong sealed the entrance of the lair and began a short period of closed door cultivation.
While Chen Zong was in closed door cultivation, the outside world was abuzz because of him.
The Peerless Sword Competition was a grand event that happened once every three years in the House of Pure Grace. Therefore, those who performed amazingly in the Peerless Sword Competition would often become the center of discussion for a period of time. Chen Zong had surpassed all the previous competitions.
Not only was it because he was the first person to win first place in the Peerless Sword Competition outside of the House of Pure Grace, breaking the previous record, but it was also because he had twice rejected the invitation of the House of Pure Grace's earth spirit realm expert, forefather Tianhong, as well as the invitation of the imperial family's earth spirit realm expert, Marquis Longjing.
Other than that, there were other things.
For example, he had overestimated himself and asked to comprehend the Pure Grace Sword Wall.
For example, he had killed two disciples of the House of Wanluo, and one of them was Li Shiyun.
No matter which one it was, it was enough to push Chen Zong into the limelight.
For a time, Chen Zong's name spread throughout the House of Pure Grace and House of Wanluo. Even the Xuanzhen House had heard of him.
…
"The Evil Luo List has been updated."
"Chen Zong from the House of Unhindered Sword has been added to the Evil Luo List. He is ranked twelfth, and his battle strength is between the late and peak of the four star realm. He might be able to increase his battle strength in a short period of time. It is recommended that he is at least at the peak of the four star realm. It is best if he is at the five star realm.
"Eight hundred!"
"If it weren't for my lack of strength, I would definitely hunt him down."
The Evil Luo List was a list of criminals led by the House of Wanluo. It recorded the people who had caused losses to the House of Wanluo, and almost every one of them was extremely vicious.
Chen Zong had killed two disciples of the House of Wanluo, but it was not a big deal. The problem was Li Shiyun, the House of Wanluo.
Li Shiyun was very talented, and he was one of the best among the core disciples of the House of Wanluo. In addition, his status was not low either. He was the personal disciple of an Extreme Mortal Realm elder in the House of Wanluo.
The elder of the House of Wanluo was grieving over the death of his disciple. At the same time, he was filled with killing intent toward Chen Zong. However, due to some reasons, he could not leave the Sect to hunt down Chen Zong personally. Therefore, he added Chen Zong to the Evil Luo List and asked the stronger disciples in the Sect to hunt him down.
If the disciples in the Sect were unable to kill Chen Zong, he would have to do it himself.
Of course, even if he had to do it himself, he could not do it openly. He had to do it secretly, because the Longtu Dynasty had already included the protection of geniuses in the law.
In the House of Wanluo, many disciples were envious of the 800 Sect Contribution Points. It was not easy to obtain the Sect Contribution Points in the House of Wanluo. 800 was a relatively large number. It was enough to exchange for a complete Heaven Level Martial Art.
Not to mention the normal core disciples, even the top five core disciples were very tempted.
"Chen Zong …" In a pitch-black cave, two red lights suddenly lit up. They were like meteors streaking across the darkness. Shortly after, a figure rushed out of the pitch-black cave and appeared outside the cave. It was the Underworld Raven.
The Underworld Raven stared ahead. His eyes seemed to be able to see through the void. He did not hide his gloomy and cold aura at all. His killing intent was even stronger than before.
"Late 4-Star to peak 4-Star battle strength. This ant has grown quite fast."
"800 Sect Contribution Points. I just happen to need it."
After saying that, the underworld raven stretched its body in the air and flew down the mountain like a black crow of death that had flown out from hell.
However, the number one and number two core disciples of the Ten Thousand Sifting Sect did not make a move because they were not in the Ten Thousand Sifting Sect right now. Otherwise, they would probably be tempted by the eight hundred contribution points and make a move.
… …
"First place in the Matchless Sword Battle. Unexpected, unexpected."
In the House of Unhindered Sword, the House of Unhindered Sword was very excited. The four elders were also very excited.
They had lived for tens or hundreds of years. Naturally, they knew the meaning of the Matchless Sword Battle. In the past, the House of Jinghong had always been the champion. They did not expect that this time, the first place would be taken by someone else. It was the disciple of the House of Unhindered Sword, Chen Zong.
It could be said that the Matchless Sword Battle had made Chen Zong famous in the House of Jinghong. It had also strengthened the reputation of the House of Unhindered Sword. It was very obvious that the reputation of the House of Unhindered Sword had completely suppressed the other three Sects in the Tianjiang House.
As long as one walked out of the Tianjiang House, one would hear discussions about Chen Zong and the House of Unhindered Sword.
The House of Unhindered Sword was naturally very happy and excited.
It could be said that Lin Yuye was the most prestigious disciple in the House of Unhindered Sword. But now, it was Chen Zong. Because what Chen Zong had done was something that Lin Yuye could not do.
"First place in the Matchless Sword Battle, suspected to be a late-stage Four-Star. Chen Zong, Chen Shidi, I won't lose to you." Lin Yuye thought to himself. He went into seclusion to cultivate the thirty-seventh level of the Unhindered Sword Battle.
His cultivation had reached the limit of Lv 9 True Martial Realm, and his combat strength had reached the mid-stage Four-Star. Under normal circumstances, there was no room for further improvement unless he broke through to the Pseudo Transcendent Realm.
However, the Unhindered Sword True Force that Chen Zong had given to the Sect gave Lin Yuye hope to continue to improve.
Since the Unhindered Sword True Force was so precious, of course, the news would not be leaked. However, Lin Yuye was Lin Yuye's son and the eldest disciple of the Sect. His loyalty and contribution to the House of Unhindered Sword was obvious to all. Naturally, he was qualified to know and cultivate this technique.
The Unhindered Sword True Force had four levels, and Lin Yuye had only been taught the thirty-seventh level. However, the thirty-seventh level was much more profound than the thirty-sixth level. With Lin Yuye's talent, he had been cultivating it for more than a month, but he still had not completely mastered it. However, with the initial mastery, his Unhindered Sword True Force had become purer and more powerful.
After all, the first thirty-six levels of the Unhindered Sword Art were Heaven Grade, but the last four levels were Heaven Grade. There was a considerable gap between the two.
"When I master the thirty-seventh level of the Unhindered Sword Art and the thirty-seventh level of the Unhindered Sword Art, my combat strength might even approach the late-stage Four-Star." Lin Yuye thought to himself. He was full of expectations.
