Shi Lang and Yao stood against each other, both of them holding their weapons and they both shoot off from their spots. The Terran could sense Yao entering the range of Shura Heaven, and every single movement of her body. He could even sense the spiritual fluctuation from her body.
His body moved quickly, but he was only able to parry the attacks and not dodge them. He was not yet strong enough to move as fast as Yao. However, him being able to parry the attacks already was enough to shock Yao. Read latest chapters at M V L
After ten blows exchanged the two of them moved apart. Yao stood ten meters away from him, and looked at Shi Lang with surprise on her face. She remarked, "You sure are talented."
Shi Lang bowed his head and replied, "Thank you, Elder Yao."
Yao nodded, and said, "From today onwards, there would be many people coming over to train. You can watch them and learn from them. They are all Inner Sect disciples and they will be going to represent the sect in the seven star tournament."
Shi Lang thought for a bit and said, "I am not strong enough to at the moment, even if I learn something new I would not be able to execute it. I would like to increase my strength as much as I can."
Yao nodded and said, "You can enter the blood pond in the back."
Shi Lang looked at her in askance and the lady said, "Inside the blood mist, there is a pond, if you can bathe in it, you would be able to comprehend Slaughter Dao very quickly. The pond is actually a very thick condensation of the spiritual energy and the blood mist is makes it red."
The Terran thought about it and then said, "I will go there right away."
Yao nodded, and Shi Lang left the place. While he was climbing down the mountain, he saw many people climbing up. He clasped his hands and greeted the people. These disciples also greeted him back, one of the person asked, "I have heard a lot about you, Junior Brother Shi. I am Long Yang. I rank second in the lower dragon list of the inner court."
Shi Lang greeted him back, but did not say much. He only greeted them out of courtesy but did not wish to talk to them. Suddenly, a familiar person appeared before him, "Hmm, Xiao Lang, are you also training here."
Shi Lang bowed and greeted, "Instructor Ling. I was told by the Peak Master to go and train in the blood mist. My realm is low, and I need to improve that."
Instructor Ling caught the hint and said, "Go quickly."
Shi Lang bowed and dashed away quickly. His speed was so fast that the people only saw him flicker. Long Yang scratched his head and asked, "Instructor, did I make any mistakes?"
The other disciples were also looking at her, and the lady shook her head while gazing in the direction Shi Lang had left. She said, "You did not make a mistake. He is just one of those who don't talk much. He did not wish to offend you so he asked me. If you seem him in the future. Just greet him, or challenge him.
Don't have small talk."
Hou Bing snorted and a few feathers from her wings shot over to Cao Ming. She said, "Give them to him. He will know what they are. Till then."
The next moment, the behemoth of the bird vanished from the place as if it had never appeared. Cao Ming looked at the people and made a hand seal. Suddenly, all the disciples and elders below the high table level went into daze. They woke up a few moments later, forgetting what just happened completely.
Cao Ming and Luan returned to the valley. Luan asked, "I did not expect Her Excellency to have recovered and come here in person to meet him. Old Cao, that boy is special?"
Cao Ming gazed at three feathers and kept them in his space ring. Luan asked, "What are they?"
Cao Ming shook his head and said, "I don't know. I cannot see through the seal on them. I will hand it over to Xiao Lang when he comes out of his seclusion."
Luan looked in the direction of the Crimson peak and said, "He is fighting like crazy spirits. I have never seen anyone like him. Old man, he is growing at a pace, that when he comes out, he might lay waste to the rankings in the outer court."
Cao Ming smiled faintly and said, "See, he found the blood pool, and this strength is what he earned. Plus, the rankers have been enjoying for a bit too long. They need to have some pressure."
He took out a talisman and sent it directly to the sect master.
...
In the blood mist, Shi Lang stood before a pond. The water inside was gurgling, and he could sense a seething heat emitting from the water. He took off his clothes and placed his foot inside the pool.
The next moment, his entire body seemed to have been set on fire and his soul was burning. He wailed so loudly that it reached the summit of the Crimson Peak. The people training there were shocked.
Long Yang opened his eyes and looked at Yao, who was looking down the summit with an anxious expression. He could not help but ask, "Elder, what was that?"
Yao took a deep breath and said, "That was Xiao Lang, training in the slaughter blood pool."
Long Yang and the rest took a deep breath. The former asked, "Elder, how can you let him go to the forbidden place? The water in that pool can burn the soul with the tide of slaughter intent."
Yao nodded and said, "I know, but I also know, that he can handle it. Come on, go back to your own tasks, do not mind him."
The people could not calm down, because for the next one week, the mountain shook with his wails. It was not easy to get strong, and this pain was a price to pay.
