In the pitch-black room, it was so dark that they couldn't even see their fingers. Suddenly, there was a silent flash of light.
Danger! A palm that was emitting a sharp light suddenly struck towards Chen Jiu's heart mercilessly. This attack would definitely pierce through him, leaving no room for escape.
But at that moment, the two black-robed men couldn't react at all. Chen Jiu, who had been sleeping, suddenly transformed into a demon. It looked like a snake, but it wasn't a snake. It looked like a dragon, but it wasn't a dragon. It was like a Devil Beast from hell. It roared and devoured the attacking black-robed man, causing him to die a miserable death. His body was a bloody mess. Other than his human form, he was just a pile of minced meat.
"What …?" The other black-robed man turned pale with fright and fell to the ground. After all, he was a Heaven Opening expert. Killing a Body Tempering expert like Chen Jiu was as easy as flipping his hand. He couldn't believe that such a huge difference had occurred.
"Who sent you?" Chen Jiu's cold voice rang out. Above his head, there was an illusion of a dragon and a snake god. It was extremely terrifying.
"I don't know, I don't know! Demon, don't kill me!" The black-robed man was scared out of his wits and retreated.
"You don't want to talk? Then I'll cripple you. "Chen Jiu didn't show any mercy. He once again sent out a dragon phantom, causing it to roar and devour the black-robed man.
But this time, the black-robed man didn't die. Black smoke rose from his body and his face was deathly pale. It was as if he had experienced the cycle of reincarnation in hell. He was scared out of his wits.
"Speak! Who sent you? Did you participate in beating me?" Chen Jiu asked again. The black-robed man didn't dare to hold back and told him everything.
"What? Mu Lan and the city lord worked together to punish me? " After understanding everything, Chen Jiu couldn't help but feel resentful. "Despicable woman, how could you be so ruthless? Could it be that just because I'm the abandoned child of the gods, you can treat my life like grass?"
"Hmph, go back. Tell that woman that even if I, Chen Jiu, am abandoned by the gods, I'm not a man she can bully as she pleases." After learning that it was Mu Lan, Chen Jiu didn't feel the need to silence her. He just wanted her to see how fast he had grown.
"Bang!" Before the black-clothed man left, Chen Jiu punched another corpse, causing his blood to dry up on the spot and turn into ashes. He was so scared that he pissed his pants and ran away.
Yang Nan was one of the city lord's attendants. His cultivation had reached the first layer of the Heaven Opening Realm, the Origin Transformation Stage, and his main cultivation was Battle Qi. He was already a first grade warrior.
The Eight Transformation Stages of Heaven Opening were Origin Opening, Condensation Opening, Solidification Opening, Fullness Opening, Acupoint Opening, Orifice Opening, Core Opening, and Nascent Opening. Each stage represented the advancement of a first grade warrior. Although a first grade warrior was a low level, it couldn't be mentioned in the same breath as the Tempered Body Realm. Under normal circumstances, even ten Tempered Body Realm experts wouldn't be able to defeat a first grade warrior.
Only after advancing to a warrior could one become a true martial artist. Only then would one be able to obtain a place in the sword Sect.
Yang Nan had advanced to a first grade warrior at such a young age. He was usually very self-satisfied, but today, after leaving the Chen Clan, he was completely exhausted, as if he had just escaped from hell. His face was frighteningly pale.
Yang Nan stumbled back to the city lord's mansion and told Zhao Sankui and Mu Lan everything that had happened to him. They were greatly shocked.
"Trash, truly fucking trash. I sent you two first grade warriors to kill an abandoned child of the gods, but you both failed. What use is there in keeping you alive?" Zhao Sankui was furious. He raised his hand and prepared to kill Yang Nan to vent his anger.
"Stop!" Mu Lan stopped him. She asked, "Are you sure that person is really Chen Jiu?"
"It's absolutely true. We've beaten him several times, so there's no way we're mistaken. Not only have his injuries healed, but he's also extremely terrifying. That demonic technique not only devoured my body, but also my will," Yang Nan said gratefully.
"Demons and ghosts. This Chen Jiu has cultivated such an evil technique. He'll probably become a demon in the future. It's best to get rid of him as soon as possible," Zhao Sankui said sternly. "Pang Ze, Hu Guo, quickly get rid of Chen Jiu. Don't leave any loose ends."
"Wait!" Mu Lan stopped him again. She laughed coldly. "City Lord, don't you think this is more fun?"
"What? Fairy, what do you mean? "Zhao Sankui was dumbfounded. He really couldn't understand what this woman was thinking.
"There's no need to kill him. Continue beating him. I want to see what kind of surprises this abandoned child of the gods can give me." Mu Lan immediately became happy again.
Chen Jiu wasn't trash. He had even killed a first grade warrior. Mu Lan couldn't help but have a whole new level of respect for him. She couldn't help but feel a sense of pride. How could a man who was able to touch Mu Lan be trash?
Pei pei pei, what nonsense was she thinking?
Chen Mansion, Qing Xin Residence. Chen Jiu quietly dealt with the black-clothed man without alerting anyone. After he finished, he was so shocked that he was drenched in cold sweat.
Killing someone was a capital offense. In the past, Chen Jiu wouldn't even have dared to think about it. But now, he had acted so fiercely. In an instant, he had taken someone's life. It really scared him to the core.
The nine ox and two tigers had been killed. They were just demonic beasts. In Chen Jiu's heart, they were just animals. But the one in front of him was a living person. Chen Jiu naturally found it hard to accept that he had been killed.
In the universe Continent, human lives were as cheap as grass. They were easily killed and injured. No one could care about them. While thinking, Chen Jiu completely immersed himself in this world. As his cultivation base grew and he encountered more and more things, his heart became colder and colder.
Those who killed would be killed by others. They were just animals. There was no need to feel bad for them.
After calming himself down, Chen Jiu no longer thought about it. Instead, he closed his eyes and fell asleep …
The next morning, Chen Jiu woke up early. After washing up, he rejected Chen Lan's offer to follow him. After asking Chen Tianhe for advice, he went out alone.
The Unsetting Sun Mountain Range was a huge primitive mountain range that stretched for millions of miles outside of Sky Dragon City. Many demonic beasts lived in it. It was a dangerous place, but it was also a good place to gain experience.
That's right. Chen Jiu's purpose for this trip was to gain experience. Now, he understood that if you wanted to make a name for yourself in this world, you had to have absolute strength. That was absolutely impossible.
The Chen Family was also preparing to hold a family meeting regarding the compensation. At the meeting, if you didn't have the strength of a first-grade warrior, you would have absolutely no right to speak.
Improve. Chen Jiu urgently needed to improve himself. Otherwise, he wouldn't even have the chance to defend himself at the family meeting.
Chen Jiu was currently at the seventh-grade Body Tempering Realm, the Spirit Tempering Realm. The next realm was the Strength Tempering Realm. It mainly trained one's willpower and body to work together to achieve twice the result with half the effort. This required a lot of actual combat practice to understand.
