A Genius Remembers Love in One Second? This is a wonderful novel for you to read.
The scenery was extraordinary, but Chen Zong didn't stop to appreciate it, because the sense of danger was getting stronger.
"What's going on?"
"Is someone after me?"
Chen Zong thought to himself as he rushed towards the Heaven Ascension Tower at full speed.
Chen Zong wouldn't be surprised if someone was after him. After all, he had offended many people when he first came to the Ascending Heaven Region. Moreover, the Third Prince of the Dragon Diagram Imperial Family wouldn't let him go.
However, after eliminating the possibility, the Third Prince of the Dragon Diagram Imperial Family couldn't have sent people to chase him so quickly, unless they were Transcendents.
Moreover, the Xin Family, a sword family, wouldn't have received the news immediately after he killed three of their disciples. Then, there was still the Martial Saint Palace.
The Martial Saint Palace was a high-rank Sect. Xiahou Zhen wouldn't let him go after he crippled their core disciple, Lin Ziqi.
"Wait." Chen Zong suddenly thought of Chaohui City's Nangong Family.
The two Young Masters of the Nangong Family had died under his sword. Whether it was right or wrong, the Nangong Family wouldn't let him go. They had sent a pseudo-Transcendents to chase him, but they were scared off by the old man beside Qing Chen. They would probably send someone after him after a period of silence.
As a powerful force, the Nangong Family had more than a few pseudo-Transcendents.
Chen Zong was very fast, but the three pursuers were even faster because they weren't in the True Martial Realm. They were all pseudo-Transcendents with Seven Star combat strength.
Although they were only early Seven Star, True Martial Realm cultivators couldn't compare to them, especially when they were good at speed.
However, Chen Zong's speed was much faster than ordinary early Seven Star cultivators. For a time, the three couldn't catch up to Chen Zong. They could only follow the traces of aura left by Chen Zong.
…
In the valley, there was a series of courtyards. Looking down from above, one would find that the courtyards formed the outline of a sword, emitting a dense Sword Qi.
The Xin Family, a sword family, was a mid-rank force.
"Who's the killer?" The Fourth Elder of the Xin Family asked coldly.
"Chen Zong." One of the people below knelt on one knee and lowered his head.
"What's his origin?"
"It's suspected to be someone from the outer realm. His combat power can reach the limit of five-star."
"How dare he kill a disciple of the Xin Family. The Fourth Elder's eyebrows were as sharp as swords, and his eyes were filled with killing intent. "Let Wu Xing take action. He must take this kid's head."
The Xin Family's face suddenly changed Chen Zong's Heart.
Xin Wuxing, the prodigy of the Xin family, was over forty years old. He did not practice the Xin family's Divine Wind Sword Technique, but another sword technique that was not inferior to the Divine Wind Sword Technique. It was even more strange and terrifying, and was best at killing.
Not only that, Xin Wuxing's combat strength was as high as Eight Stars, and he was now ranked on the Heaven Ascension List. He was known as the Ghost Sword, and when he did, he would kill. He was extremely murderous and had once slaughtered hundreds of cultivators with his sword in half a day, and there was no lack of Pseudo Transcendent experts among them.
Chen Zong's combat strength was only at the peak of the Five Star Realm, yet he actually asked Ghost Sword Xin Wuxing, who had the combat strength of an Eight Star Realm, to fight. Wasn't he making a big fuss over a minor issue? However, this was the elder's decision, and he just had to follow the order.
Little did they know that the Xin Clan's Fourth Elder had his own considerations. That Chen Zong was clearly a prodigy, and such a prodigy could grow while being hunted down. Thus, it was fine if they didn't make a move, but once they did, they had to kill him to prevent him from being left alive.

Causing future trouble.
Throughout the ages, there were many examples of this.
The most obvious example was the powerhouse who reached the heavens in one step. His enemies chased him time and time again. Not only did they fail to kill him, but they also allowed him to grow and eventually destroy his enemies.
Of course, the Fourth Elder didn't think that a mere True Martial Realm cultivator could really threaten the Xin Family. After all, the Xin Family was a mid-rank force. There were many Extreme Mortal Realm cultivators in the family and an Earth Spirit Realm ancestor.
Since ancient times, there were many geniuses who couldn't reach the Transcendence Realm in the end. They couldn't withstand the erosion of time and disappeared from the world.
Not long after, a figure exuding a shocking cold aura stepped out of the valley.
…
"This person stopped here."
Three figures seemed to have descended from the sky. After careful observation, they found the residual aura fluctuations.
"Not far."
"Chase."
The three people's faces were cold.
They were indeed members of the Nangong Family. They were cultivators trained by the Nangong Family. Their talent was quite good, but they were able to cultivate to the Pseudo Transcendent Realm because of some special Secret Techniques. Naturally, there was a price to pay. One of the prices was that their cultivation couldn't advance any further.
To put it bluntly, any force with a strong background must have something to rely on. This kind of method to cultivate a Pseudo Transcendent Realm cultivator at a high cost was something that many forces possessed. The only difference was that some forces were strong and some were weak.
With their Pseudo Transcendent Realm strength, they couldn't catch up to a True Martial Realm cultivator. It was a disgrace.
The three people chased after Chen Zong's aura with all their might.
The sense of crisis was still there, as if an invisible sword was stabbing at his back. Chen Zong ran as fast as he could, pushing his movement skill to the limit.
"Maybe I should find a better movement skill." Chen Zong thought to himself. Although this Sweeping All Directions Movement Skill was good, it seemed to be unable to keep up with his own progress, making it difficult for him to completely transform his strength into speed.
Realizing this was a bit slow. Otherwise, he might have been able to buy one in the Thousand Treasure Pavilion. However, since he had already left Hundred Battles City, Chen Zong wouldn't return for the time being. Moreover, it wasn't only Hundred Battles City where he could find a better movement skill.
Moving forward, Chen Zong headed straight for the Heaven Ascension Tower without stopping.
Although Chen Zong's cultivation was still only at the peak of the Ninth Layer of the True Martial Realm and couldn't be compared to a Pseudo Transcendent Realm cultivator, the purity of his True Qi far exceeded that of an ordinary peak Ninth Layer True Martial Realm cultivator. In addition, he had reached the Peak of the Blood Force Realm, the Peak of the Strength Refining Realm, the Body Tempering Art's Mixed Yuan Body, and the Profound Jade Golden Bone Art's Third Layer. All of these factors made Chen Zong's physical endurance far superior to others. His recovery speed was also extremely fast. Even if he was compared to a Seven Star Pseudo Transcendent Realm cultivator, not only would he not be inferior, he would even be slightly superior.
This was also the reason why the three Pseudo Transcendents of the Nangong Family couldn't catch up to Chen Zong.
In the blink of an eye, a few days had passed. With Chen Zong's speed, he was already thousands of kilometres away from Hundred Battles City. Along the way, he had even crossed two cities and gradually stepped into the territory of the Heaven Ascension Tower.
The Heaven Ascension Tower was a unique treasure of a sect, and it had been here for many years. Over time, the Heaven Ascension Tower became the center of the Heaven Ascension Region. Surrounding the Heaven Ascension Tower, some gathering places gradually formed. As time passed, these gathering places continued to expand until they were connected. Now, they were built into a city.
Heaven Ascension City!
This city was in the shape of a ring, surrounding the Heaven Ascension Tower in the center, as if it was protecting the Heaven Ascension Tower.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Chen Zong saw the ancient Heaven Ascension City. The city walls had long been mottled by the erosion of time, but they still stood tall, like a giant that had experienced the vicissitudes of life, but was actually still strong.
Heaven Ascension City was in the shape of a ring, so there were a total of four city gates facing the four directions. They were divided into the East, West, North, and South gates. Each gate was guarded by a master, all of whom were 9th Layer True Martial Realm martial artists. Each of them had experienced hundreds of battles, and their combat strength had reached the level of Two Star. From this point alone, it was enough to see the strength of Heaven Ascension City.
Similarly, the forces in Heaven Ascension City were intricate. Almost all the ranked forces in the Heaven Ascension Territory would try their best to occupy a place in Heaven Ascension City and build a stronghold there.
In other words, if one couldn't build a stronghold in Heaven Ascension City, it was nothing. Even if it was a ranked force, it belonged to the bottom.
According to the division of the Longtu Territory, it would be difficult for a low-ranked Sect like the four great Sect of Tianjiang Prefecture to build a stronghold in Heaven Ascension City.
After learning about this, Chen Zong was very surprised, and at the same time, he had a sense of expectation.
Heaven Ascension City was known as the most powerful and prosperous city in the Heaven Ascension Territory. At the same time, it was also the most complicated city.
With quick steps, Chen Zong approached quickly, and then stopped outside the East Gate, and changed to walking.
No one was allowed to enter Heaven Ascension City. Otherwise, it would be regarded as disrespectful, and they might be killed on the spot.
Under the cold gaze of the two guards with outstanding combat strength, Chen Zong took out 10 Spiritual Shells as the entrance fee.
Heaven Ascension City wasn't a place where anyone could casually enter. Every time one stepped in, they had to pay 10 Spiritual Shells. After that, no matter how long one stayed in the city, if one wanted to enter again after leaving, they would have to pay 10 Spiritual Shells again.
Of course, there was another way, and that was to apply for an entrance token.
The entrance tokens were divided into three grades, low-ranked, mid-ranked, and high-ranked. They corresponded to one month, one year, and ten years.
In other words, a low-ranked entrance token allowed one to enter and leave Heaven Ascension City freely for one month without paying any entrance fee. Similarly, a mid-ranked entrance token allowed one to enter and leave freely for one year, and a high-ranked entrance token allowed one to enter and leave freely for ten years.
However, to apply for an entrance token, one had to first enter Heaven Ascension City, and then go to the City Logistics Department. In other words, no matter what, one had to pay 10 Spiritual Shells first.
Stepping into Heaven Ascension City, Chen Zong immediately had a strange feeling. The streets of Heaven Ascension City were wider than those of the Hundred Battles City, but it wasn't ridiculously wide. It was just that the feeling was completely different.
How to describe it?
It was like the feeling Chen Zong had when he first stepped into the Cloud Dragon Dynasty from the East Continent, or the feeling when he first stepped into the Longtu Dynasty from the Cloud Dragon Dynasty.
It was a feeling that was difficult to describe with words. It was a feeling formed by the accumulation of the Martial Dao over the years. Heaven Ascension City had existed for a long time, and the forces in the city were complex. There were many masters, and the Martial Dao was prosperous. Over time, everything in the city would be affected, and it would become different.
For example, if poetry was popular in some places, then over time, that place would be filled with a unique poetic charm, and if singing and dancing were popular in some places, it would also be affected.
Just as Chen Zong stepped into Heaven Ascension City and was surprised by the unique aura of Heaven Ascension City, the three pseudo Transcendent Realm masters of the Nangong Family who were chasing after him also saw Heaven Ascension City, and their expressions changed drastically.
Heaven Ascension City had strict rules, and no one was allowed to fight in the city without permission. Otherwise, no matter what their origin was, they would be imprisoned or killed on the spot.
