(My wife has something to do and the Six Paths has to act as both a father and a mother while writing. Who can deliver me a Yuan Spirit Incarnation Technique?)
With his layers of defenses torn apart, Yu Jingtian knew he was dead meat.
A sudden change occurred.
As if from the void, a ray of light appeared. It was not obvious at first, but soon became very strong. It shattered the Wind Slashing Sword Intent and wrapped around Yu Jingtian. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared from Chen Zong's sight.
It was too fast and too sudden. Chen Zong only saw a figure suddenly appear. After shattering the sword light, it grabbed Yu Jingtian and left at an astonishing speed. He wanted to stop it, but it was too late.
"A Transcendent!" Chen Zong said in a low voice.
There was actually a Transcendent Realm master following Yu Jingtian.
The Transcendent Realm was a Great Realm, and it was divided into nine Great Realms, but Chen Zong did not know which Transcendent Realm this person's cultivation was.
Without thinking too much, Chen Zong threw away all distracting thoughts and turned around. His extremely sharp gaze swept across the faces of the leaders of the various forces.
"Now, give me an answer." Chen Zong's voice was full of sharpness as Bai Hongjian's Sword Qi shook the sky.
…
"Good boy," In the Blue Cloud Sect, Elder Lin, who had finished reading the letter, was dumbfounded at first, then burst into laughter.
The Sect's task for Chen Zong was to win the right to distribute fifty percent of the Purple Cloud Iron. This was very difficult, at least without any help from the Sect.
After all, the situation in Purple Cloud City was very chaotic. There were four factions in the city. Pulling one would affect the others. Without the help of a sect, Chen Zong would have to spend a lot of time on his own strength and ability. Whether he could do it in the end was still unknown.
Unexpectedly, in just a few days, Chen Zong had reorganized and conquered Purple Cloud City.
That's right, it wasn't to seize the right to distribute 50% of the Purple Cloud Iron, but to subdue the Purple Cloud City. After subduing the city, the right to distribute the Purple Cloud Iron would be completely in the hands of the Blue Cloud Sect.
Chen Zong had not only completed the Sect's mission, but he had also exceeded the quota. Now, the Purple Cloud City had returned to the Blue Cloud Sect in name. However, what happened next had nothing to do with Chen Zong. The Blue Cloud Sect had to immediately send people to enter the Purple Cloud City and truly take control of the Purple Cloud City.
…
The leaders of the three great clans and the twenty one-star forces all expressed their allegiance to the Clear Cloud Pavilion. The Brilliant Purple House was also disbanded, representing a new era in the Purple Cloud City.
Young, strong, cold, and decisive in killing. This caused everyone to not dare underestimate him in the slightest. Instead, they were filled with reverence from the depths of their hearts. Deep reverence. That extremely fierce killing intent was like a brand that directly entered their souls, and it was impossible to forget.
They could either submit or leave the Purple Cloud City. Purple Cloud City was the place where they were born, where they struggled, and where they had many properties. How could they leave just because they wanted to?
In the end, Yu Jing Tian was rescued by a Transcendent Realm master. Chen Zong wrote a letter and had Lin Zheng Chun rush to the Blue Cloud Sect at full speed. With Lin Zheng Chun's half-step Transcendent strength, his speed was also very fast. He could deliver the letter to the Blue Cloud Sect in the shortest time possible and deliver it to Elder Lin.
Now that he had subdued the Purple Cloud City, Chen Zong was also somewhat interested in the Purple Cloud Iron. After cultivating, he set off for the Purple Cloud Iron Mine.
The Purple Cloud Iron Mine was located at the edge of the Purple Cloud City. It was an underground mine with only one entrance.
Chen Zong stepped inside and the light dimmed. However, for Chen Zong, it didn't affect him much and he could still see clearly.
The passage behind the entrance was quite wide. As he walked, he felt like it was connected to all directions. Many workers were waving their pickaxes to mine the ore.
There was a reward for mining, and it was based on how much Purple Cloud Iron was mined.
In the end, there were also people who gathered the ore and transported it to the Purple Cloud City to be refined into Purple Cloud Iron. It was then piled up and distributed once a year.
From the mining of Purple Cloud Iron to the transportation and refining of Purple Cloud Iron, every step was under the control of the various forces. No one could tamper with it.
After all, it was a matter of vital interest.
Chen Zong's arrival didn't disturb anyone. It was purely out of curiosity. With someone leading the way, no one would be foolish enough to disturb him.
After many years of mining, there were many crisscrossing passages in the Purple Cloud Mine.
As he walked, Chen Zong suddenly stopped and looked at one of the passages. It seemed to be an abandoned passage. It was blocked with stones, preventing people from passing through. There were also large blood-red words written on the stone: Danger.
"What is that place?" Chen Zong couldn't help but ask.
"Pavilion Master, that is a very dangerous place." The person leading the way was the seventh layer Foundation Realm expert from the Clear Cloud Pavilion. When Chen Zong asked, he also looked over. His expression suddenly changed and he quickly explained, "Five years ago, the miners came here and seemed to have touched some taboo. They all turned to ashes. Later, experts from various forces came to investigate, but they all died. Their bodies were all burned to ashes. Even a half-step Transcendent expert went in to investigate, but he didn't find anything. Since then, it has been sealed and listed as a dangerous place. No one is allowed to enter."
This person's explanation was very simple. Chen Zong spread out his spiritual sense and penetrated the stone. After penetrating a few thousand meters, Chen Zong's spiritual sense stopped. He could feel a trace of heat.
Through his spiritual sense vision, Chen Zong seemed to be able to see a faint shadow. A very faint purple shadow flashed and disappeared in an instant.
Although he didn't see it clearly, Chen Zong was sure it wasn't a person or a beast.
Chen Zong said, "Let's go."
The person leading the way let out a sigh of relief. He was very worried about the pavilion master's temper. What should they do if he insisted on exploring that dangerous place?
He brought Chen Zong out of the Purple Cloud Mine and returned to the Clear Cloud Pavilion.
Late at night, Chen Zong quietly left the Clear Cloud Courtyard. Using his top quality mortal body, he left like a wisp of smoke. No one noticed him.
Late at night, the Purple Cloud Mine was completely silent. After all, the cultivation levels of the miners were not high. At best, they were at the early stage of the Foundation Realm. Many of them were ordinary people who worked here to support their families.
They worked during the day and needed to rest at night to recover their energy. They could only work again the next day.
Of course, there were still people guarding the mine. At the entrance, there were two seventh layer Foundation Realm cultivators guarding it.
A wisp of smoke quickly passed by the two seventh layer Foundation Realm cultivators. They only felt like a gust of wind had passed by.
The gap was too big. Even ninth layer Foundation Realm cultivators would find it difficult to catch Chen Zong's figure, let alone two seventh layer Foundation Realm cultivators.
Chen Zong had come here during the day, so he clearly remembered the route. He was very familiar with the path, so he arrived at the dangerous passage like a wisp of smoke.
With a move, Chen Zong swiftly moved away the stone blocking the passage without making a sound.
Many people had died here, and no one had entered for many years. The air was filled with a cold and gloomy feeling that made people shudder.
Chen Zong's expression was calm; he wasn't afraid at all. On the contrary, Chen Zong was very curious about what was inside.
He floated in like a wisp of smoke and stopped after a few thousand meters. This was the end, and there was no path forward.
The walls of the cave were very smooth, like the surface of a mirror that had cooled down after being burned by high temperatures. There were lines on the surface, like layers of clouds, and they were very complicated.
He spread out his spirit sense and covered the cave wall in front of him, searching carefully.
Chen Zong was sure that what he "saw" with his spirit sense during the day was not an illusion. There really was something here.
True Qi filled his two fingers and shot out towards the wall of the cave. With a pop, a hole appeared in the wall of the cave, and crushed stones flew everywhere.
Chen Zong kept probing with his attacks. His spiritual awareness was constantly covering the area, paying attention to any possible changes.
Suddenly, a blazing aura appeared. It swept out like a tidal wave, startling Chen Zong. He hurriedly pushed the Illusory Fog Heavenly Cloud Technique to the extreme. His extremely pure Illusory Fog Heavenly Cloud Genuine Qi spread out in front of him in an instant to defend.
Retreat!
The pure True Qi wall only lasted for one breath of time before it was burned through.
Chen Zong, who had retreated dozens of meters, could feel the shocking heat in front of him, as if it could burn everything into ashes.
Chen Zong also knew why people who came here before were burned to ashes. If his True Qi wasn't pure enough, he wouldn't be able to withstand this terrifying heat even if he was dozens of meters away.
In the entire Purple Cloud City, no one's True Qi could compare with his. They were only half-step Transcendents.
According to what was said before, when a half-step Transcendent expert came to investigate, they didn't find anything. On the contrary, those who weren't half-step Transcendent had all died. This situation was very strange, so it was no wonder that this place would be sealed.
As for why it wasn't reported to the Blue Cloud Sect or the Purple Brilliant Sect, it was probably because they were worried that the Sect would disturb the order here and harm their interests.
After all, the Purple Cloud Iron was very valuable. It was most practical to secretly deduct a part of the profits from selling it and distribute it to everyone.
However, no one expected that in just a few days, there would be such an earth-shaking change.
More than ten meters away, Chen Zong narrowed his eyes and stared at the object in front of him that was emitting a blazing heat. A faint purple mist filled the air and there seemed to be a purple cloud in the middle, condensing into a thumb-sized flame that burned quietly.
"What is this?" Chen Zong secretly guessed.
Unfortunately, he hadn't been in this world for long enough and didn't know much about it. He only felt that this object seemed to contain a very terrifying power. This kind of power made his Spiritual Sense tremble a little when he came in contact with it.
He wasn't sure, not at all. Chen Zong chose to retreat. He planned to wait until his strength was enough, such as when he broke through to the Transcendent Realm, and then come back again. Or he could report this matter to the Sect and deal with it.
The moment Chen Zong retreated, the motionless Purple Cloud Flame suddenly turned into a stream of light. Its speed was so fast that Chen Zong's Spiritual Sense was able to capture it. Before his body could react, the Purple Cloud Flame had already flown into Chen Zong's body.
Immediately, an extremely terrifying heat exploded within his body. It was like a flood that had broken through a dam. Wave after wave, it was endless as it continued to attack.
