To complete the Blood Demon's quest. To help the Blood Demon escape.
Yu Chen's main body was fighting wave after wave of monsters in the Heavenly Prison while familiarizing himself with the curse mark.
A week later, Yu Chen began to use his blood to carve the curse mark on the silver chain.
Unfortunately, engraving the curse mark consumed too much of his mental strength. Yu Chen would feel dizzy for every centimeter that he carved, and he would have no choice but to sit cross-legged to rest.
In-between recovering his mental strength, Yu Chen began to cultivate.
Just like that, Yu Chen's life in the Heavenly Prison became fulfilling.
Gradually, the passage of time became more and more difficult for Yu Chen to sense.
…
Today, the two superpowers: Jiguang Sect and the Hunyuan Sect were having a friendly martial arts competition.
Both sides would send out several juniors to fight one on one.
The winner advanced and the loser was eliminated.
It was said that after the competition, both sects would reward individuals and teams according to their rankings.
Therefore, many people from both sects were paying attention to the competition.
In a certain grand square in the Hunyuan Sect, the two sects welcomed the finals.
On one side was a two-person team formed by the Immortal and Saint of the Hunyuan Sect.
On the other side was a three-person team made up of the last disciple of the Jiguang Sect's Sect Master.
In the Jiguang Sect, there was no such thing as a Saint or Immortal. They advocated spreading the mental cultivation technique as much as possible.
Therefore, all the outer sect disciples could obtain all the Aurora Mental Cultivation Technique.
The only difference in treatment was in the allocation of resources. The higher one's status was, the more resources they would receive.
At that moment, the place was buzzing.
Xi Ling sat on her own seat, glancing out of the corner of her eye at Yu Chen who was sitting on the chair beside her.
At this moment, Yu Chen was still expressionless, like a lifeless puppet.
Last time, Yu Chen had specially gone to look for Xi Ling and explained everything clearly.
Xi Ling now knew Yu Chen's true identity.
But she still agreed to Yu Chen's request.
Which was: Take care of this avatar.
Because of his work in the Heavenly Prison, Yu Chen was not allowed to be distracted to control his avatar.
Therefore, the avatar became a soulless puppet.
Xi Ling had been shocked at the time.
She did not expect that Yu Chen, who had defeated all the Saints and Saintesses, was only an avatar.
It was no wonder that the Grand Elder of the Hunyuan Sect gave the position of Immortal to Xi Ling because Yu Chen and Wang Yun did not get along.
The Hunyuan Sect was trying their best to keep Yu Chen.
Unfortunately, Xi Ling thought that this was somewhat ridiculous.
If the Hunyuan Sect knew that the genius they were trying their best to keep actually cultivated the Blood Demon Technique, what would they do?
At that time, what kind of expressions would the various hall masters, sect masters, and even the Grand Elders make?
Interesting … very interesting.
But Xi Ling didn't betray Yu Chen.
After all, Yu Chen's avatar was too useful.
If he was told to go to the west, he would not go to the east. He was extremely obedient and did his best without any nonsense. He was simply super useful.
At this moment, an old man in a Daoist robe came to Xi Ling's side and whispered, "Immortal, your suggestion was not accepted by the Sect Master."
Xi Ling frowned. "What?"
Panic gripped her. She was at a loss.
Last time, she had told Yu Chen that she wanted to become the Immortal to save her homeland.
Therefore, she recommended a certain policy to the sect master.
Even if it was not fully implemented, there should at least be an experimental area.
Xi Ling had selected her homeland to be the experimental area.
However, the sect master actually rejected it?
The old man continued, "That's right. The Sect Master said that the resources collected by that empire were to be given to the Jiguang Sect as a gift…"
Recently, the higher-ups of the Hunyuan Sect have been asking the Jiguang Sect for help, so they had promised to hand over all the resources collected by a certain empire to the Jiguang Sect.
Xi Ling's mood instantly soured. Her face darkened as she looked at the Jiguang Sect Master's final disciple who was provoking her on the stage.
"Chen Yu, it's our turn."
Xi Ling turned back and spoke to Yu Chen.
Yu Chen's eyes lit up. Then, he slowly raised his head and looked calmly at the stage.
In an instant, the last disciples of the Jiguang Sect felt as if they had been targeted by a powerful beast.
Their gazes locked onto Yu Chen, and their eyelids twitched in shock.
Good God, this person…
This person's body carried such a dense spiritual energy fluctuation. What a powerful aura…
They had only felt this suffocating pressure from a full-fledged fourth realm cultivator.
Gulp ~
They couldn't help but swallow, feeling a little afraid.
However, in the next second, Yu Chen and Xi Ling jumped into the arena.
Yu Chen stood behind the Xi Ling expressionlessly, his eyes fixed on the enemy.
It was as if he would rush into the crowd and kill them if Xi Ling gave the order.
Seeing that both sides were in position, the Jiguang Sect's Adjudicator Elder announced, "The cultivators of both sides have gone on stage. The competition… begins."
…
'Chen Yu, use the same D-rank tactics as before.'
Xi Ling spoke telepathically to Yu Chen.
Without hesitation, Yu Chen appeared in front of Xi Ling.
Xi Ling raised her hand, her tender lips moving as she whispered, "Talent Skill - God of War's Light."
The red light shone on Yu Chen, and his body cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, directly doubling.
"Talent Skill - Spirit God's Gift."
The blue light shone again, and Yu Chen's spiritual power cultivation began to expand. In the end, the upper limit of his spiritual power expanded to over three times.
"Talent Skill - Speed God's Principle."
"Talent Skill - Psionic Shield…"
After applying four buffs to Yu Chen, Xi Ling took a deep breath and instructed, "Alright, next… as long as you don't hurt their lives, it'll be fine."
After hearing this, Yu Chen immediately used the Primordial Chaos Art to transform his spiritual power and physical cultivation.
Facing the pressure brought by Yu Chen, the three opponents also began to set up formations.
"Aurora Shield!"
"Aurora Shield!"
"Aurora Shield!"
The three Aurora Shields combined and aimed at Yu Chen.
In the next moment, Yu Chen appeared in front of the Aurora Shield.
He raised his hand calmly and waved it. A deafening sound came from the Aurora Shield.
Crack ~
Bang!
The first Aurora Shield shattered.
Yu Chen did not stop at all. In less than two seconds, he swung three punches and broke all three Aurora Shields.
Then, Yu Chen appeared behind one of them and kicked him.
Before the person could react, he realized that he was already far away from the arena.
The one-sided competition shocked the Hunyuan Sect disciples, and they all shouted.
Before long, all three opponents were dealt with.
Wordlessly, Yu Chen returned to Xi Ling's side.
He stood as still as a puppet.
Everyone also noticed this abnormality and started whispering.
"Why does Saint Chen Yu look so strange?"
"Haven't you heard? Recently, Saint Chen Yu has been obedient to Xi Ling. He seems to want to be her lackey like Wang Yun."
"Tsk tsk, in my opinion, Saint Chen Yu is so strong. He doesn't need to be a bootlicker at all."
"Who knows? The psychology of those big shots is not something we can guess."
