Chapter 32 - Escape
The Heart Control Art was an extremely evil control type secret art, and it was also a cultivation technique from the Huangquan Sect.
Fang Chen never thought that he would be able to obtain such a thing here. If he wanted to escape now, this was the only way.
Once the Mind Control Technique was successfully cultivated, a blood-red flower would be formed in the mind. With a thought, the blood-red flower would emit a blood-red fog, and from then on, it would be able to control warriors and turn them into puppets.
Fang Chen carefully observed it once before he began to cultivate Heart Control.
"Whatever. This is the only thing we can do now." Fang Chen thought.
This was also the first time Fang Chen had come into contact with a cultivation technique like Heart Control Technique.
However, it was a good thing that Fang Chen had a gold heart, so every time it became extremely difficult to cultivate, a gold heart would be able to flow with a clear stream to help Fang Chen.
This made Fang Chen very happy, and time slowly passed.
In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed and Fang Chen's Heart Control cultivation had improved a little as well. A small sized blood-red flower had already appeared in his mind.
Three days later, Fang Chen finally decided to start refining the blood-red flower.
"Gather …"
Following Fang Chen's low shout, all of the power in his body instantly gathered in his mind. At the same time, a blood-red fog appeared in his mind.
The appearance of the mist made Fang Chen feel evil, but his golden heart was beating extremely fast, suppressing that evil aura.
Hiss, hiss, hiss …
Under Fang Chen's control, the blood-red fog slowly condensed.
After a while, the blood-red flower was successfully formed.
Crash …
Fang Chen stopped cultivating as the blood-red flower in his mind was filled with an incomparably dense blood-colored aura.
"Heart Control."
Fang Chen was ecstatic, it had only been a short time and he had already mastered the heart control skill, this surprised Fang Chen even more.
Following that, Fang Chen walked out of the cave, just in time to meet Jin Yunyun who was walking towards him.
With a thought from Fang Chen, the blood-red flower in his mind suddenly trembled. In the next moment, a blood-red fog directly appeared in Fang Chen's mind, surrounding Jin Yunyun.
Hiss, hiss, hiss …
Fang Chen could feel that the control heart technique he was using was resisting the control heart technique of the blood-colored skeleton.
"Ning …"
Fang Chen roared angrily as the blood-red flower swayed nonstop. A dense blood red aura gushed out of it unceasingly, and finally all of it entered Jin Yun's mind.
At the same time, the blood-colored skeleton's mental control was removed, and Fang Chen's mental control was successfully planted.
Unknowingly, Fang Chen had already controlled Jin Yunyun. Fang Chen could feel that with just a thought, he could cause Jin Yunyun's soul to scatter.
"What a domineering heart control technique." Fang Chen said in a low voice.
"Master."
Just then, Jin Yun cupped his hands towards Fang Chen with wooden eyes.
"Yes." Fang Chen nodded his head in satisfaction, then warned Jin Yunyun, telling him to be careful.
Soon after, Fang Chen arrived at the edge of the valley and discovered the seventh day. Using the same method, Fang Chen controlled the seventh day once again.
After controlling it for seven days, Fang Chen decided to try controlling Elder Liu. However, Elder Liu was a warrior with 1st level of Qi Condensation, and was extremely tyrannical.
Fang Chen was fully prepared, he brought Jin Yunyun and the seventh day, and arrived at the place where Clan Elder Liu was. Currently, Clan Elder Liu's eyes were wooden, as he sat there quietly.
When Fang Chen arrived, Elder Liu basically did not care, and continued to sit cross-legged.
Fang Chen indicated for Jin Liuyun and the Seventh Heaven to stand by Elder Liu's sides, then he quietly unleashed a heart control technique.
Hiss, hiss, hiss …
The blood-red flower in his mind swayed, and a dense blood-red aura continuously surged out. After which, all of it drilled into Elder Liu's mind.
Rumble …
Elder Liu's body trembled as if he was struggling.
"Control your heart."
Fang Chen bellowed, he released the Heart Control Skill at full power, causing the blood-red flower to sway, the blood red fog all entering Master Liu's mind.
Time slowly passed. At the beginning, Elder Liu was still struggling, but after a quarter of an hour, he had stopped struggling.
After an hour had passed, Elder Liu was completely controlled by Fang Chen.
"Master." Elder Liu cupped his fists at Fang Chen.
Fang Chen looked at the stiff Elder Liu and laughed in satisfaction. Once he controls Elder Liu, escaping would be even easier.
After controlling Elder Liu, Fang Chen decided to escape this place before the blood-colored skeleton came out from closed door cultivation.
"Let's go." Fang Chen said in a low voice.
However, just as Fang Chen and the rest were preparing to leave, from the place where the Blood Skull was training, a ray of blood red Qi shot out.
In the next moment, the blood-colored skeleton let out an angry roar.
"Damnit …"
The moment the blood-colored skeleton came out of seclusion, it immediately sensed that the four puppets were no longer in contact with it, which made it very angry.
When he realized that Fang Chen and the other four were ready to leave, he became even more furious and wanted to kill them.
"All of you will die." The blood-red skeleton roared.
Fang Chen frowned as he felt the power coming from behind him. He shook his head slightly and said: "Elder Liu, go deal with the blood-colored skeleton."
Fang Chen gave the order, and Elder Liu's figure flashed, appearing right in front of the blood-colored skeleton, then he threw out a punch, blocking the blood-colored skeleton's attack.
The blood red skeleton landed on the ground, he glanced at Elder Liu and then looked at Fang Chen.
"You learned Heart Control?" The blood-red skeleton roared in anger.
Fang Chen did not have time to explain either, immediately allowing Jin Yunyun and the seventh day to attack together. The three puppets stopped the blood-colored skeleton, while Fang Chen himself quickly rushed out of the valley.
"You're courting death."
Seeing this, the crimson skull was enraged. It used all of its strength to fight against Elder Liu and the others.
Ka-cha …
With a loud explosion, the crimson skull's palm directly pierced into Jin Yunyun's chest, instantly killing him.
"All of you will die." The blood-colored skeleton went crazy, and in the next moment, crushed the throat of the 7th Heaven.
In the blink of an eye, he had already killed two puppets, causing Fang Chen to be extremely shocked, but fortunately there was Elder Liu to stop them, causing the blood-colored skeleton to be unable to catch up.
After Fang Chen escaped from the valley, he immediately rushed towards the Windy City. This place wasn't far from the Windy City, as long as he could reach the Windy City, he would be safe.
At this time, within the valley, the battle between the bloody skull and Elder Liu had reached its climax.
Bang
With a loud bang, Elder Liu was instantly sent flying.
The blood-colored skeleton was slightly stronger than Elder Liu, but in the end, Elder Liu was killed by the blood-colored skeleton.
After killing Elder Liu, the blood skull quickly chased after Fang Chen.
However, Fang Chen had already entered the Windy City at this time. Seeing this scene, the blood-colored skeleton roared angrily.
"Brat, I will tear you into a thousand pieces." The blood-red skeleton coldly roared.
After Fang Chen safely arrived at the Windy City, he stayed in the Windy City for a day, and on the second day, he quickly rushed back to the Green Edge Sword Sect.
After returning to the Green Edge Sword Sect, Fang Chen felt a burst of lingering fear. If he hadn't discovered the Heart Control Technique, he would have died at the hands of the blood-colored skeleton a long time ago.
"Strength, you have to raise your strength."
Although Fang Chen's current strength was already enough to fight against disciples with the peak of the 5th level of the Refinement Realm, who had just entered the sixth level, in front of a profound practitioner, it was simply not worth mentioning.
"I must quickly break through, so that I can one day reach the qi transformation realm." Fang Chen said in a low voice.
Qi Refinement Realm was the first great realm for a martial artist to cultivate. In the Greencloud County, it was nothing at all; only by reaching qi transformation realm could one be considered a true martial practitioner.
The Green Edge Sword Sect had a long history. On top of a mountain peak in the sect, there was a Heaven Stairway, called the Sword Arts Heaven Stairway.
There were a total of nine levels to the Heaven Stairway, so in order to reach the Heaven Stairway, one had to at least have a level of 5th level of the Refinement Realm.
In front of the sword arts Heaven Stairway, there were numerous inner disciples. Some disciples were here to watch the other disciples challenge the sword arts Heaven Stairway, while others were here by themselves.
In short, there were many people gathered in front of the sword technique's Sky Stairway.
There was a layer of restriction on the swordsmanship ladder. As long as one stepped onto the swordsmanship ladder, they would not be able to use the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, and they would not even be able to use the power in their bodies.
Only by reaching an astonishing level in sword arts would one be able to gain the recognition of the sword arts Heaven Stairway.
When Fang Chen appeared in front of the sword technique's Heaven Stairway, there were a few disciples barging into the sword art's Heaven Stairway. Fang Chen even recognized one of them.
"Look, Bing Ling has reached the fifth level of the Heavenly Stairway. He's way too powerful."
"That's right. Last time, Bing Ling only reached the fourth level, but she managed to reach the fifth level in such a short period of time. Her talent in sword arts is too great."
"I heard that Bing Ling's strength is already comparable to the inner court five. It's just that she is rather low-key."
"I wonder what level the icicle will reach this time?" Many disciples were discussing.
Besides Bing Ling, there were a few other disciples on the Heavenly Stairway to the sword, but none of them were as strong as Bing Ling.
Bang
As time passed, a disciple broke through to the third floor and was sent flying. After a while, another disciple broke through to the fourth floor and was also sent flying.
After a while, only Bing Ling was left on the sword technique's Sky Stairway.
Bing Ling was filled with an icy cold aura, giving off a feeling as if he was a thousand miles away.
At this moment, within the small white hand of the Ice Spirit, was a common soldier. His wrist was continuously waving, and from the common soldier, beams of sword light shot out.
Sword light filled the sky, dazzling everyone who saw it.
"This Icicle Sword Technique is very powerful." Fang Chen evaluated.
As Bing Ling performed her sword technique, she finally reached the sixth level while everyone was still stunned.
After stepping onto the sixth floor, Bing Ling felt an even stronger pressure. She wanted to rush to the seventh floor in one breath, but her body bounced back with a bang.
"Interesting."
