"Senior, this gift is too precious! Junior did not do a thing that worth given with this Obsidian Heavenly Beast's Backbone!" Zhang Wu Ji extended his hand back to the senior from Xue Hou Valley.
"Not bad. Only a glance is all you need to recognize this treasure of our Xue Hou Valley. Take it. I heard about your ability when you're fighting against the bast*rd from the Blood Messenger Religion. With this Obsidian Heavenly Beast's Backbone, I may have the chances to witness some changes." the senior replied.
"Changes?" Zhang Wu Ji is puzzled by his last word.
"Hahaha, for the Wild and Strong Beast like us, an Obsidian Heavenly Beast's Backbone can both gift us with blessings or curse. Assimilation with this treasure is extremely difficult, with only a 25% success rate."
"Instead of being used by my lack of talent junior, why not we extend our friendship and use this gift to strengthen the relationship between the Seven Heaven Sect and Xue Hou Valley's younger generation?" the senior speaks his intention of bringing out such an expensive gift.
"Then..." Zhang Wu Ji still hesitates. Out of suggestion on what he should do, Zhang Wu Ji turned his attention to Ming De.
The latter nodded his head as he looks at the junior.
"Then junior Zhang Wu Ji will accept this gift. But in exchange, please let me give something back as an exchange of goodwill!" Zhang Wu Ji accepted the gift and kept the treasure inside his spatial ring.
At the same time, he withdraws one of the treasures he obtained from the first Cage Chamber and give this item to the disciple.
"I am Zhang Wu Ji." he introduced himself.
"I am Gumu Wuwo from the Battling Apes Tribe. Brother Wu Ji, nice to meet you!" the junior beast with a physical form of an ape introduces itself.
"Brother Wuwo, nice to meet you too." the two give each other a hug, which was the Intelligent Wild Beast's way of communicating.
After their exchange of gift and conversation, the Mystic Vein Realm Challenge finally ends. Riding on the Silver Wolf Tender, they returned to their sect for the sake to report about this great achievement.
"Junior Zhang, did you managed to get the Inheritance?" Ming De questioned the youth as they're excused from controlling the Silver Wolf Tender.
"Senior Ming De, junior Wu Ji did receive the inheritance from the Mystic Vein Realm. It will no longer open because the Jade Lord already chose me as her inheritor. I will continue her legacy from this moment onwards." Zhang Wu Ji replied.
"Good Job! But what is this Jade Lord is all about? I thought the owner of this Mystic Vein Realm name is Golden Lord?" of course, Ming De knows a few details about the Mystic Vein Realm. After questioning the youth for a while, he finally understands everything.
"No wonder... It was a good thing that you managed to inherit her legacy. Make sure that you do not let the Jade Lord down. Furthermore, it was a good thing that you teach those from Blood Messenger Religion." Ming De nodded and brought up a different topic.
"Is there an issue between our sect with the Blood Messenger Religion?" Zhang Wu Ji asks for more information about the relationship of the ten superpowers inside this Middle South State.
"The relationship between the ten of us are similar to having nine daggers aiming at our throat. This is also why the Xue Hou Valley' senior tried to get his junior, the Gumu Wuwo from Battling Ape Tribe to befriend you." Ming De replied.
"Senior's meaning is... If there's any clash between the superpowers, the younger generation like myself and Gumu Wuwo will not need to fight against each another?" Zhang Wu Ji confirmed his suspicion.
"Yes. Each generation will only fight against each another. Of course, there will be an exception. And those will be the four Strongholds. You must take note that position and power did not come with the benefits alone, but disaster too."
"Always remember that..."
"BOOM!"
"Senior Ming De! Junior Zhang! We're under attack!" the driver of the Silver Wolf Tender reported.
"Who dares to attack our tender?" Ming De charged outside of the Silver Wolf Tender to look at the enemies. But when it was revealed to be a group of cultivators in their red robes, Ming De's heart falls.
"All of you from Blood Messenger Religion! How dare you try to attack people from the Seven Heaven Sect? I will make sure to report all of these actions to the sect!" Ming De taunted the enemies.
"Let the youth come with us to be cleansed. If you retaliate, don't blame the Blood Messenger Religion to remove this tumor from destroying our Middle South State!" one of the people in red robes taunt back against Ming De.
"Bast*rd from the Blood Messenger Religion! If you dare to take another step forward, don't blame me sending all of you to your maker earlier!" Ming De withdraws a sword and channels his strength out to threaten the others.
"Hahaha... You cannot make a move, Guidance Master Ming De. All of us are in 15th to the 16th Stage of Inner Qi Warrior, and you're at 47th Stage of Inner Qi Master."
"The differences of 30 stages will cause the Natural Law of Cultivator to arise if you dare to make a move!" the red robe cultivator speaks. As he points on the sky, a circle of cloud started to form, indicating that what he said is true.
"Junior, Quickly run!" Ming De shouts at Zhang Wu Ji so he can escape. But his warning was not taken in by Zhang Wu Ji. Instead, the youth came out from the Silver Wolf Tender to face his enemies.
"If all of you are rushing to your death, then I'll help you to go there earlier." Zhang Wu Ji announced his intention to fight with them. With his both of his palm holding on some hidden weapon, Zhang Wu Ji narrowed his eyes as he looks at his enemies.
"Hahaha! An 11th Stage Inner Qi Warrior want to fight with thirty of us at our 15th and 16th Stage Inner Qi Warrior strength? Youth, we can kill you without any effort at all, put aside the Warrior Qi." all the red robes cultivator laughed.
"Then shall we try?" Zhang Wu Ji tossed ten drops of Natural Springs at his enemies before he activated the Grain of Water Sapphire for its best effect.
"Water Drops? A funny choice of weapon, Youth!"
"BOOMMMMMM!!!!!!" the clusters of explosion blasted everyone and blinded both parties. When Ming De's sight finally returned to normal, the thirty opponents were left with between ten to eleven, with the others all turned into a pile of burnt meats.
"Youth! How dare you... Uhuk." the leader taunts at Zhang Wu Ji but following from his first attack, a Flying Silver Stake came forth and nailed his corpse on the ground.
"Leader! NO!" the others were surprised by the sudden attack, but before they can react, all remaining survivor is nailed on the ground, dead.
"What is that? Dao of Assassination? Dao of Projectiles? Dao of Weaponry? How can a mere 11th Stage Inner Qi Warrior possess this kind of fighting ability?" Ming De was surprised by his performance.
Even himself, at Zhang Wu Ji's age, is just a normal cultivator that has to depend on a powerful senior to groom him. When he was younger, did he ever overcome such a threat?
Without waiting for the Ming De's approval, Zhang Wu Ji went down and started to grab all his victory loots. Few Spatial Stones is collected, but when he rummages the leader's corpse, a mark was imprinted on his body.
"Junior, quickly come back! That's the Mark of Blood Impaler!" Ming De rushes to where Zhang Wu Ji is still questioning about the appearance of the mark on his body.
"PIU!" a three meter long Silver Bolt struck at where Zhang Wu Ji stands. Luckily, Ming De reaches where he was, and deflected the first attack.
"Leave! We must return to the Seven Heaven Sect and requested one of the elders to help to remove the Mark of Blood Impaler!" Ming De pulled Zhang Wu Ji and returned into their Silver Wolf Tender.
Three days later, they finally reach the entrance of the sect and went past the Defensive Array. At the same time, one of the Blood Impaler Bolt tried to went through the Defensive Array but unsuccessful.
"Damn! This feeling is like targetted by a Homing Missile. If I can play with something like this must be nice." Zhang Wu Ji did feel a little threatened, but his urge to possess some ability like this is much more.
"Junior pay his respect to Master Jiang Lei." Zhang Wu Ji immediately bowed at the Master when he appears.
"Humph! How dare the trash Lan Yiyun place a mark on our First Heaven Mountain's best disciple! I will teach him a good lesson next time in our Blacksmithing Master's Meeting!" Master Jiang Lei harumph.
"Come with me." Master Jiang Lei leads him to the residence of the Top ten students and open the first building.
"Master Jiang, for what reason you take me here?" Zhang Wu Ji was unable to guess his intention.
"As the inheritor of Mystic Vein Realm's Jade Lord, how can you remain at that building? The First Heaven has approved my request, and from this moment onwards, you're the First Heaven Mountain's First Seat!" Master Jiang Lei answered.
"Wait? I did not do anything, how can I become the first seat? Master Jiang Lei, this will not do good on my cultivation, please retract your order." Zhang Wu Ji bowed. If he climbs up to the top spot without personally fighting for it, then who will respect him?
"Fool, one against thirty 15th to 16th Stage of Inner Qi Warrior and killing the disciple from Blood Messenger Religion, if it was not because of the Sect Rules, we already place you on the third mountain." Master Jiang Lei added.
"There goes my intention of laying low..." Zhang Wu Ji said.
After the Mark of Blood Impaler was removed, Zhang Wu Ji was given a briefing on his rights as the 1st Seat in First Heaven Mountain. The content was about the same, except being the first seats means that he can take five manuals out instead of one, free of charge.
The Mission Hall also promises a double the rewards for every mission he selected to complete. As for the Material Hall, Zhang Wu Ji will enjoy the benefits of Sect Storage and 50% discount on all material he purchased.
"A first seat actually carries so many benefits. I should take the chances now to increase my cultivation first. And at the same time, it's time for me to start my preparation with master's Formation of Seven Swords Manual." Zhang Wu Ji considered his path of cultivation.
"Let us refine the Obsidian Heavenly Beast's Backbone before I pay attention to my cultivation. Because my Cultivation Strength is limited, I put a stop on my UPGRADE System and Knowledge Unlocking for too long. I have to start paying more attention to this issue." Zhang Wu Ji took a sit on the Baixue Jade Mat and took the bone in hand.

"Put aside the specialty, After refining this treasure its equal to increasing 1,000 Points in my Qingyang Fortress Body. The total achievement of 1,200 Points will allow my body to ignore 10% of the damage. This means, my defensive ability is going to get a critical boost!" Zhang Wu Ji smiled.
Without further ado, he begins the refining process.
The refining process caused the clouds to converge above his residence and forms a gigantic Obsidian Heavenly Beast's appearance.
"What treasure did the disciple get in the First Heaven Mountain?" the disciples from the second and third Heaven Mountain is surprised by the sudden appearance of this shadowing.
