Chu Chen had never cared about rankings, but there was something about him that was strange. If he defeated Xie Yunfei, he should be able to reach first place in outer sect, so why was he only ranked second? Could it be that first place in outer sect was stronger than Xie Yunfei?

However, you did not kill him. So, you can only take Duan Langyun's place, and not rise to first place, unless you defeat Xiao Baili. " Shi Zhuang explained.

"So that's how it is." Chu Chen was secretly shocked, it seemed that this ranking was not without basis. The top ranked Xiao Bieli had actually defeated Duan Langyun in one move, with the Bloody Martial Stage at the eighth level? Or nine levels?

"I heard that he's almost at the Spiritual Martial Stage level. He's on par with Xie Yunfei and Zhong Gu. He's a newly advanced monstrous genius."

"Phew, quickly reach the Spiritual Martial Stage!" Hearing this answer, Chu Chen took a deep breath. It seemed that if he wanted to become the strongest, he had to continue working hard. Just with his Northern Spirit Sect, he had seen how many monstrous geniuses he had.

From the looks of it, the Flame Nation as well as the other three great sects, the Southern Profound Sect, the Western Burning Sect, and the Eastern Li Sect, would not be any weaker.

If it was even a bit larger, outside of the Flame Nation, the entire West Spirit Domain, would consist of several tens or even hundreds of countries. Only then would there truly be an uncountable number.

There was still a long way to go, and he definitely could not be proud of what he had achieved. Chu Chen warned himself: Cultivate, continue cultivating.

In the following period of time, everything returned to silence, and no one dared to come knocking again to cause trouble. However, Chu Chen's cultivation, did not decrease by even a little because of this.

He still went to hunt Devil Beast everyday, and at the same time, went to the Thousand Feet Cliff to use the waterfall to refine his flesh. During the rest of the time, he would use black to practice the Broken Sword Style.

This type of muscle compression put him in a state of tension, and then switched to an ordinary sharp sword. When used, there were great benefits and the speed became much faster.

Chu Chen was trying his best to open the seventh Martial Vein.

On this day, Shi Zhuang found Chu Chen and said, "Rou Rou, is home."

"Go home? Why are you home? Did something happen? " Chu Chen asked anxiously, this was one of his friends, he did not want any accidents to happen.

"I'm not sure. A few days ago, she seemed to have received a letter and then hurriedly packed her things to return home." With that, Shi Zhuang spread out his hands, "I don't know what's wrong with her. She probably has something at home she's interested in, it should be fine."

"In a hurry." Chu Chen rubbed his nose, "I hope nothing happened."

"Oh right, Rou Rou told me to tell you that she will remember you in her heart. "Hee hee …" After saying that, Shi Zhuang winked, "What on earth is with your attitude? I'm so soft and yet I'm completely infatuated with you."

"What kind of attitude can you have?" Chu Chen laughed helplessly, "Right now, my heart is mainly focused on cultivation, I do not want to prematurely fall in love."

Although this explanation was meant to trick Shi Zhuang, after careful consideration, it was indeed what he should do.

"I say, Chu Chen, a gentle and lovable person, she is also very beautiful. It's not like you don't know that many people have feelings for her within the outer sect, are you really not tempted by her?"

Hearing Shi Zhuang say that, Chu Chen's mind immediately recalled that beautiful face, with Liu Rourou's beauty, forget about outer sect, the entire Northern Spirit Sect, could also be considered to be quite nice, Chu Chen could not find any problems.

But for her, it was as if she were a good friend, or even a sister. There was no desire between men and women.

In fact, in the Flame Nation, a fifteen to sixteen year old child like Chu Chen would have already been married and given birth to a child. It was no wonder that Shi Zhuang would ask such a question.

"Let me ask you, when did you become so gossipy? Cultivate properly." Chu Chen laughed, and then left.

After a period of cultivation, he realized that the Elder Bai's body tempering method did not seem to have improved much. It was not as if it had improved by leaps and bounds in the beginning, as every time he finished cultivating it, he would feel his body filled with an abundant amount of energy.

But now, that power seemed to have been saturated, with no breakthroughs.

Maybe he had met with a bottleneck, and was preparing to ask Elder Bai about it. When he reached the chore house, Chu Chen asked the questions in detail.

After hearing that, Elder Bai opened his eyes wide and looked at Chu Chen strangely.

Being stared at by such a gaze, Chu Chen's heart tightened. He knew that there wouldn't be any big problems with his body, then things would become troublesome in the future.

"Kid, you're really a freak. In just two or three months, you've cultivated the body refining method to the limit. Let me ask you, do you know what the ultimate goal of the body refining method is?"

After thinking for a moment, Chu Chen said: "To train the physique, to dig out the strength."

"That's right, it's exactly like that, I asked you to kill the Devil Beast and train your reaction, speed, and strength, and using the thousand foot torrent to temper your body, I squeezed out all of the power from your body. Previously, you felt that every time you trained, your body would be filled with great power, and that's exactly the case.

"I suppose you understand what I mean?"

"Is that also my body tempering cultivation method reaching large success?" Chu Chen asked.

You can put it this way, but you should be clear that the body refining method is just a set of cultivation techniques that I have concluded and cannot be measured by levels. However, your current body refining method can be considered as a low Huang grade cultivation technique, and now that you have reached the large success stage of the method, you have already broken through to the extreme realm.

After hearing what the Elder Bai said, Chu Chen was suddenly enlightened. So it was because he had improved, and not because he had encountered a bottleneck.

Thankfully, it wasn't a physical problem, otherwise it would have been terrible.

A warrior's body was the most important thing, and he had to treat it well. There were many people who would find it difficult to cultivate in the future because of the hidden injuries, unless they had good pill s.

When it came to pill s, they were extremely expensive. For warriors who lived in poverty in their families, they absolutely could not afford to use them, so the starting point was much lower than warriors from rich families.

Most of the geniuses had extraordinary backgrounds, but not all of the poor martial artists were ordinary. There was one advantage that was most obvious, and that was to be able to endure hardships without fear of danger.

Martial dao could be overcome with diligence. Even if one wasn't strong enough when working hard enough at the end, one was still the closest to becoming strong.

If there really was a problem, then he would need to buy pill s to heal his wounds, but he did not have many Primeval Stone s on him, although the clan felt a little relieved, Chu Chen knew that Chu Family, in the entire Flame Nation, could not even be counted on one's fingers.

The clan's resources, in front of those expensive pill s, were not enough to be squandered as freely as they pleased.

Other than that, since he had just exterminated the City Lord's family, the flow of the funds would definitely be difficult, Chu Chen would definitely not trouble the clan.

"If you want to become stronger, then you can only increase the difficulty. The body refining method is something that I have concluded, so it's not that rigid." The Elder Bai said.

Chu Chen nodded his head, which also meant that he had to kill many Devil Beast and sit cross-legged under the waterfall. Other than that, he could also use other methods to continuously refine his own body.
