Chapter 1135 1095: Waiting for You Ten Days

After some roughhousing, Chen Fei's attention returned to the wounds on Ming Daochuan.

First, he had gone nearly half a month without eating or drinking. Now, because of that broken formation talisman, he suffered spiritual array backlash, adding injury to injury. To put it simply, if it weren't for the peculiar nature of his cultivation method, it would have been a miracle for anyone else to even be standing right now.

Thinking of this, Chen Fei reached to his waist storage bag with a swipe, and a light gleamed, bringing forth a pill bottle in his hand.

"What's this?" Ming Daochuan couldn't help but look astonished, creatures appearing out of thin air? What is this sorcery? Could it be this powerful!?

"A storage bag, a little item in the cultivation world. I have many of them; master, I'll get you a few later." Chen Fei explained as he pinched a pill from the bottle.

"Master, eat this." Chen Fei handed the pill to Ming Daochuan.

As the strong, heart-soothing scent of the pill wafted over, Ming Daochuan's eyes flickered with surprise as he took the pill and swallowed it.

Ah~

The next second, a heart-wrenching pain erupted from within his body, making him cry out, his face contorted in anguish.

"Master, hold on, hold on and you'll be fine." Just then, Chen Fei's voice came from beside him, encouraging him.

Turns out, it wasn't an accident but Chen Fei's intention.

"I, uh... it hurts, hurts, hiss!" Ming Daochuan grit his teeth, enduring the excruciating pain, but gradually, he overcame it! Furthermore, afterward, a powerful, unprecedented force slowly rose within him.

"Is this... have I broken through?" Feeling the change within, Ming Daochuan's face gradually filled with ecstasy as he murmured in disbelief.

For in just a short moment, he had burst through from the Qi Refining Seventh Layer all the way to the Peak of Qi Refining Eighth Layer... until reaching the Peak of Qi Refining Eighth Layer, the nearly 'mad' power within him then gradually dissipated, and the pain faded with it.

This terrifying change, this bizarre breakthrough speed, how could it not shock and astonish Ming Daochuan, someone who spent more than three years wandering at the Qi Refining Seventh Layer Realm, and fill him with exhilaration!?

After all, wasn't this effect somewhat too exaggerated?

If he had taken this pill earlier, how could he have been forced into such a desperate situation by the Green Snake King and the others?

He would've sauntered away, patting his bottom long ago.

"Just the Peak of Qi Refining Eighth Layer?" But seeing this, Chen Fei couldn't help but frown slightly.

Originally, according to his estimation, this pill should at least allow Ming Daochuan to break through to the Qi Refining Ninth Layer, but now, it got stuck at the Peak of Qi Refining Eighth Layer?

"Master's cultivation talent is really somewhat bad…" Chen Fei couldn't help but touch his nose, muttering in his heart, then smiled, "Something I concocted myself, the effect is okay…"

"You made it yourself?" Upon hearing this, Ming Daochuan widened his eyes again, his mouth agape, his face in a daze.

"Really, you made it yourself?" He couldn't help but stutter, his face full of absurdity, as if dreaming.

After all, how could he believe this!?

Such a powerful, incredibly potent pill, and Chen Fei actually said it was something he made? And from the look of it, he seemed to consider it beneath him…

The corners of his mouth twitched, at that moment Ming Daochuan only felt a sense of being blown about in the wind.

"Hiss hiss! Roar…" Just then, a hissing sound came from beside them. Chen Fei and the others were stunned to find Zhang Zibai's refined corpse instinctively trying to escape but couldn't get out due to too little intelligence...

Instantly, a slight playful smile appeared on Chen Fei's face.

"Come over here." With a wave of his hand, a flaming hand grasped the refined corpse from the air with a puff.

The latter immediately started struggling instinctively in fear, trying to stay away from the 'monster' that was Chen Fei.

However, how could it escape!?

Bang

Amidst a cloud of dust, the refined corpse was heavily slammed down in front of Chen Fei.

"Hehe."

Chen Fei pinned the refined corpse to the ground with one foot, examined it, and then showed a half-smile: "Four or five hundred years old material being refined so poorly, I'm truly impressed; indeed, how could people on Earth know what corpse refining is. Oh well, nothing to lose, might as well play with it…"

"Play with it?" Ming Daochuan was taken aback and couldn't help asking, "What do you want to do?"

"Nothing. Just making a toy for fun."

...

Two days later, deep within the Lingnan Mountains, in an underground palace hidden within a canyon.

Although this underground palace was ordinary, within the past few years, for hundreds of miles around, even the entire Lingnan Mountains, it was approached with the dread one had for snakes or scorpions. Because this was where the White Snake Sect was headquartered.

The White Snake Sect wasn't just any ordinary sect, but was entirely established by those legendary cultivators, and practically all formal members were cultivators!

Moreover, in recent years, they didn't even know how many ancient martial sects they'd wiped out,

No one could last a single round against them,

Thus their might reverberated through the Lingnan Mountains, and none dared to disrespect.

However today, the atmosphere inside the White Snake Sect didn't seem too pleasant…

In the deepest part of the underground palace, within a palace stood a gigantic, ferocious serpent statue! The scales on the serpent seemed like thunder patterns, in the darkness, they appeared to flicker with a sizzling light, both enigmatic and terrifying.

At this time, beneath the serpent statue, one by one, the figures exuded a ghastly aura, with various bizarre, fierce, and frightening snakes coiled around their heads, arms, or waists… The elders sat together, their faces frighteningly somber.

"Sect Leader, the Right Protector is just dead like that, it's as if they completely disregard our White Snake Sect." An elder with a face full of brown spots spoke sinisterly.

"Indeed! What trash place is this Earth, for someone to dare mess with our White Snake Sect, they must have a death wish, if this gets out, we'll be ridiculed." Another elder spoke with a ghostly face, his eyes flickering with dark light.

"Then there's that cultivation method. We've received messages from above; Elder Bi Ye personally spoke on the matter, this method must be acquired at any cost and sent back… It seems this matter is even simpler than we initially thought, isn't it?!"

Someone spoke with immense greed.

Elder Bi Ye?

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression stiffened.

This was indeed one of the true influential figures in the main hall of their White Snake Sect!

Who'd have thought, even he was alarmed?

It seems this really is quite an extraordinary thing.

"Is that so?"

At this moment, among those people, an elder who exuded a terrifying, sinister aura finally began to speak slowly.

"Isn't that person still held in our White Snake Cult? Bring him up, and let me ask..."

His withered eyes shifted as he spoke hoarsely.

"Yes, Sect Hierarch." One person immediately got up and left the palace.

A moment later, Zhang Zibai, his face pale and his body bound with wooden locks, was brought up.

"Sect, Sect Hierarch, I am just a messenger. It has nothing, nothing to do with me. I beg you, don't kill me, don't kill me."

Upon arriving, the spineless Zhang Zibai immediately trembled and begged for mercy.

"Relax, I just want to ask about what happened that day. After I'm done, you can leave, understand?" The elder, who was the White Snake Sect Leader, spoke plainly, maintaining a chilling demeanor.

"Y-Yes, I will speak, I will..." Zhang Zibai hastily recounted everything that had happened that day.

"What? You say that person can shape spiritual energy and has reached an extremely profound level, to the point where even his physical body is absurdly strong, and the Right Protector's snake pet couldn't even bite through his neck?"

"How is this possible? The Right Protector is at least among the top five in strength in our subsect, and his snake pet is incredibly fearsome. You're saying it couldn't bite through that person's neck? Are you joking? Do you think that person is a humanoid fierce beast?"

The elders in the main hall coldly laughed repeatedly.

Clearly, they did not believe a word Zhang Zibai said!

"If he really is as powerful as you claim, how did someone with your cultivation level survive?"

The White Snake Sect Leader slightly frowned and asked hoarsely.

Upon hearing this, a faint light of humiliation and hatred emerged in Zhang Zibai's eyes.

"He wanted me to deliver a message to you." Zhang Zibai said, bowing his head.

"What message?"

"He said that he wants the White Snake Sect Leader to kneel and apologize to him in Chengyang County in Northern Mountain City within ten days, or else he will destroy the White Snake Cult!"

Zhang Zibai's eyes turned cold, his heart filled with internal sneers.

"What?"

"What audacity!"

In an instant, the atmosphere in the palace exploded.

A wave of angry curses erupted.

"Destroy my White Snake Cult, ha, does he really think he has the capability?"

Instead, the White Snake Sect Leader laughed in extreme anger, chuckling coldly.

His cultivation level had already reached the Peak of Qi Refining Ninth Layer, how could anyone stronger than him exist in this desolate place on Earth? It's wishful thinking, a mere dream!

"Ha, do you find it amusing?" But at that moment, a light chuckle suddenly echoed in the great hall. It was rootless and sourceless, no one knew where it came from.

"Who!?" The White Snake Sect Leader's body jolted violently, shouting sternly.

"Ah!"

Just as he was speaking, Zhang Zibai suddenly let out a terrified scream, his pupils trembling as he said, "It, it's his voice."

"Who, who is he!?" Many furrowed their brows, unable to understand what Zhang Zibai meant.

Boom!

However, at this moment, Zhang Zibai suddenly seemed to be choked by an invisible hand, gagging and screaming in horror, eyes filled with fear, his face turning red, as he was lifted into the air.

After that, a faint purple-red flame emerged from his heavenly spirit cap, forming a blazing apparition, eternal and unceasing.

A deathly silence!

Among the many experts and strongmen of the White Snake Cult, their eyes were filled with terror.

Even the White Snake Sect Leader's expression changed dramatically, his face filled with shock and trembling.

Such a method of leaving a flame inside a person and forming an avatar, how terrifying, how frightening!? Even the Foundation Establishment True Person Realm's ancestor in their White Snake Cult's main sect did not have such abilities.

"You, who are you?" Then the White Snake Sect Leader was seen sweating profusely, trembling as he spoke.

This method of leaving a flame inside someone and having it explosively burn a person into nothingness, how terrifying, how formidable? Even the true person of the Bai family, who entered the Xiu Fa of controlling fire back in the day, had no such capability.

"You come to my territory and mess around, yet you ask who I am? Interesting, huh?" The flaming apparition, which was Chen Fei's avatar, chuckled and said lightly.

"Y-your territory?" The White Snake Sect Leader shivered all over, saying tremblingly. His forehead sweated even more.

"I will be waiting for you all in Chengyang for ten days. If you don't do as I say within ten days, you will bear the consequences. Goodbye."

But by this time, Chen Fei had no more patience to waste words with him.

As soon as the words fell, that flame avatar extinguished and disappeared.

"W-who is he!?" Someone couldn't help but tremble.

Who on Earth is such a terrifying character!?

"Is he the one who asked the White Snake Sect Leader to go and kneel down to apologize?"

Zhang Zibai by now was numb, eyes empty, slumping to the ground as he spoke.

"W-what!?" The White Snake Sect Leader's pupils shrank fiercely.

The crowd too was momentarily stunned, then their eyes trembled, cold sweat pouring, as no one dared to say a word at this moment.
