Chapter 109: 93rd Chapter: Punishment, Rules_2

Less than a year into his cultivation and he'd already reached the late Spirit Spring Realm, even the Superior Immortal Bone seemed lacking by comparison. Considering the profoundness of the Taixuan Divine Fire Scripture, it's likely that he harbors a Divine Fire Seed of no low quality within him.

Hearing Geng Yiyang's words, Ji Yuyan's eyebrows moved slightly, his expression turning much more serious, "Superior Immortal Bone?"

"Perhaps."

Geng Yiyang replied casually, his gaze sweeping over the several Holy Masters whose thoughts were varied, his expression undisturbed by any ripples.

As for Chu Zheng's life and death, he wasn't too concerned. The nature of this boy was too elusive, not one to stay content in his own lot.

Having such a person publicly acting as Taixuan's chess piece to attract the attention of all parties couldn't be more suitable.

Young people tend to slack off and need some pressure to urge them to cultivate.

Moreover, not even two cultivators who had achieved the Divine Infant Seven Transformations could kill Chu Zheng. Now, in the current situation where the Divine Infants couldn't make a move, he would only be safer.

The ultimate purpose for Geng Yiyang to leave seclusion, aside from dealing with Fang Jiong, was for that person in the Martial Path. Now that he had achieved his goal,

by the time the people from the Martial Hall arrive, Taixuan Holy Land would have two Superior Immortal Bones. Combined with the Immortal Fire Seed passed down by his predecessor, he could lay the foundations for Taixuan's future in an extremely short period of time.

The words he had initially said to Chu Zheng were offhand remarks. As for how much sincerity they held, not even he himself knew.

If he truly wanted to cultivate Chu Zheng, he would have taken him back to Taixuan long ago and directly passed down the Indestructible Sky Kirin Fire, instead of letting him fend for himself.

However,

as to how far Chu Zheng could ultimately grow, Geng Yiyang still harbored some expectations.

"Where is this child now? Can I meet him?"

Ji Yuyan became interested. To be in the late Spirit Spring Realm within a year, such a speed of progression was indeed shockingly fast.

Even within the Immortal Alliance, he had rarely heard of such a prodigy, and he had never witnessed one personally.

"He's out gaining experience."

Geng Yiyang smiled faintly, brushing off the subject without going into detail.

The methods of locating someone among these Holy Lands were far more numerous than his own. If nothing unexpected happened, the days ahead for Chu Zheng would be quite stimulating.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the hall had grown a bit subtle, Ji Yuyan chuckled lightly, breaking the silence:

"You need not be envious. The Martial Hall is going to bring at least four people with Superior Immortal Bone, with Taixuan receiving two of them. The rest of you can still compete using your own methods."

"If you can present something that satisfies the Martial God, you can naturally take them into your fold."

Four individuals with Superior Immortal Bone?!

The gazes of several Holy Masters shifted away from the Hidden Dragon List, as they instinctively took in a cold breath.

The last recorded individual with a Superior Immortal Bone in the Cangyun Realm dates back ten thousand years.

Whether these four can overcome the Immortal Tribulation and become True Immortals is another matter, but at the very least, they are guaranteed to be four Demi Immortals of the Immortal Tribulation Realm, powerful enough to dominate the current era.

Ji Yuyan glanced at the others, then rose to his feet and walked out of the great hall.

He looked down, observing the mundane kingdoms shrouded in heavy poison mist. A shadow passed through his eyes as he slowly raised his hand.

A fierce wind brushed through the layers of mist, like an invisible gigantic hand tearing away the thin veil separating heaven and earth.

"Come."

A low whisper echoed between heaven and earth, the billowing poison mist and the rain gathered by the invisible wind, converging into his palm and transforming into a black pearl.

At that moment, the world became clear, and the divine light emanating from the Tai Xu Sword was also repressed, with the clouds and rain gradually subsiding.

The next instant, Ji Yuyan pressed his palm downward, and a majestic rain began to fall from the sky again.

This was not mere dew, but Spiritual Energy transformed, merging seamlessly into the bodies it touched, dissolving without a trace even when falling into the volcanic magma, not stirring up any of the poison mist.

In just a short while, countless mortals were turned back from the brink of death at Ghost Gate Pass and were thus saved.

A stream of golden light emerged from the void, descending into the back of Ji Yuyan's neck, unnoticed even by the Great Saints.

Ji Yuyan looked at the dark pearl in his palm, walked up to the Taixu Saint Lord, and, before he could react, stuffed the pearl into his mouth.

In an instant, a billow of poison mist surged out from the seven orifices of the Taixu Saint Lord. In a ghastly scene, a Holy Master was transformed, looking like a fierce ghost, terrifying to the extreme.

The Taixu Saint Lord's face twisted ferociously, and with a low roar, he fell to his knees.

Within the poison fog, the essence of the Tai Xu Sword was mixed, and such a formidable energy could not be assimilated even by the strong within the Tongxuan Secret Realm in a short time.

"The Immortal Bone is granted by heaven for you to shepherd the people on its behalf, not for you to boast of your strength and bully others. Without the Immortal Bone, your life is not necessarily any more precious than theirs."

In the midst of speaking, Ji Yuyan glanced at Geng Yiyang, and the coldness in his pupils caused Geng Yiyang, a man not far from death, to feel a chill in his heart.

Only a moment later, Ji Yuyan had concealed the emotional fluctuations on his face, and spoke indifferently, "If there is nothing else, I ask that Tai Xu Holy Land withdraw the Immortal Treasure. If an innocent person dies again, there will be another punishment from me."

The Taixu Saint Lord, kneeling on the ground, took a deep breath and slowly absorbed the poison fog that had scattered back into his abdomen, giving a heavy kowtow, his voice hoarse:

"Immortal Ji's teachings are indeed profound; I accept the punishment."

The several Great Saints all bowed their heads in silence, the same sentence involuntarily springing to mind for each of them. S~eaʀᴄh the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Unpredictable, incomprehensible.

In just these brief moments, Ji Yuyan's mood had changed several times, truly difficult to fathom.

Giant Marsh Country, Wild Goose Wing Island, Song Residence.

The moon was high, and midnight was approaching.

Chu Zheng sat cross-legged by the riverside, on a boulder two men tall, with layers upon layers of water waves before him, his breathing long and continuous, his chest showing no sign of rising or falling for a long time.

After quite some time, he slowly opened his eyes, pulled out his panel, and used up all five of the day's remaining repair chances.

[Repair Master: Second Order (1000/1000)]

In the blink of an eye, he had already been in the Song Residence for almost half a month.

The daily refreshed repair chances were all used on the Great Circulatory Qi Guideline, and today, the experience bar of the Second Order Repair Master had finally reached Perfection.

[You have encountered an obstacle on the path of repair, you have accumulated enough experience, but your Cultivation limits you, making it hard to break through the bottleneck.]

A prompt popped up on the panel, but the anticipated promotion message did not come.

Looking at the information appearing on the panel, Chu Zheng fell into thought.

Before, his Repair Master ranking had never been obstructed; this was actually the first time.

Recalling the situation of his previous promotions, Chu Zheng had an epiphany.

His current Cultivation was only First Order; if he were to advance to a Third Order Repair Master, the rank of the Repair Master would already be two major realms higher than his Cultivation.

There was a certain restriction on the panel, his advancement in Cultivation was somewhat not keeping up with the panel's upgrade pace.

Glancing at the sky, Chu Zheng's expression tightened slightly.

As the bright moon crossed overhead, he once again pulled out the panel, and then let out a long breath.

[Remaining repair chances for today: 5]

As long as the daily refreshed repair chances did not change, the rank of the Repair Master had a minuscule impact on him at his present state.

In just over a month, he would be able to step into the Jade Bone Realm, by that time, the issue of the Repair Master's rank would naturally solve itself.

...

...

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

Chu Zheng's status within the Song Family was now extraordinary, and on normal days, barely anyone came to disturb him.

He once again lived a life similar to the time he spent in the Spirit Beast Garden, where all he needed to do was cultivate, occasionally going out to scout for news, with a steady improvement in his Cultivation.

The sun blazed in the sky, the heat steaming above the water surface distorting the vision of living beings.

Chu Zheng was still sitting cross-legged on the same huge boulder by the riverside, holding a Superior Quality Spirit Stone, drawing upon the power of the Five Elements Shaping Yuan Pills, with the speed of his Cultivation advancing rapidly day by day.

Under the massive wash of Spiritual Energy, his bones were gradually enveloped in a layer of faint light.

Crack—

With a soft click, before Chu Zheng could regain his senses amidst his Cultivation breakthrough, a series of reminders from the panel burst forth.

[Having expended a large amount of energy and diligently cultivated, you finally broke through the Cultivation bottleneck. As your repair skills improve with your accomplishments, you are now a Third Order Repair Master.]

[As your repair skills grew, you could never mend certain items due to their incompleteness and material constraints. After much contemplation without results, you gained enlightenment and mastered a Divine Skill: Heavenly Divination Technique.]

[Heavenly Divination Technique (Second Order): Using certain mediums to search for objects or people.]
