Chapter 200 - 147: Do You Dare to Fight a Scion of a Grotto Heaven

Chapter 200: Chapter 147: Do You Dare to Fight a Scion of a Grotto Heaven

Elder Zhuo sighed with emotion.

"I understand."

Chen Xuan nodded directly.

’Three robbers.’

’Black Demon Mountain was the most recent robber.’

’Heaven-Burning Valley and Canglang Sword Pavilion were robbers from a more distant past.’

’But it doesn’t matter.’

’Sooner or later, I’ll take it all back!’

"Then what about Great Snow Mountain and Sword Cleansing Pool? What level are they?"

Chen Xuan asked again.

These were the two factions that Ye Guiyuan and Xie Xinghe belonged to.

"Them? They’re considered mid-tier Grotto Heavens. We don’t need to fear them, but they don’t fear us either."

Elder Zhuo said, "Just remember, with the Alliance Leader here, factions that possess a Grotto Heaven won’t easily break off all relations with us."

"Is the Alliance Leader that strong?"

Chen Xuan raised an eyebrow.

"Of course. The prestige of the Sky Ranking is never a fabrication."

Elder Zhuo said emotionally.

"Alright."

Chen Xuan nodded.

’Third on the Sky Ranking!’

’As expected of someone so powerful!’

’It’s for the best if that man can provide him with shelter.’

"So, where is this black market you mentioned?"

Chen Xuan asked.

"The black market under our Martial Alliance’s jurisdiction is located on a small island in the middle of Canglong Lake. When the time comes, I’ll take you there."

Mr. Zhuo said.

"Sounds good!"

Chen Xuan replied.

As they spoke, they entered the Martial Alliance Headquarters.

Just as they entered, Mr. Zhuo presented an Elder’s Token and led Chen Xuan toward the Alliance Leader’s main hall.

「A short while later.」

Chen Xuan finally entered a spacious and magnificent hall, once again seeing the Martial Alliance Leader.

At this moment, the hall was filled with a crowd of people.

Elders and Protectors of the Martial Alliance from all regions had rushed over. Upon hearing of Chen Xuan’s arrival, everyone in the hall instantly cast complex and shocked gazes in his direction...

At this moment, everyone felt just as Mr. Zhuo did.

In fact, their state was even worse than Mr. Zhuo’s.

Mr. Zhuo at least had some mental preparation, having long known of Chen Xuan’s extraordinary aptitude.

But they had only heard bits and pieces of information.

Only twenty years old, yet at the True Essence Third Layer...

Defeating the combined forces of six veteran Evil Cult elders.

Powerfully tearing apart a Void Beast Hide from the inside.

Each of these combat achievements was utterly horrifying.

"Chen Xuan, you’re here."

Alliance Leader Chu Shanhe looked at Chen Xuan with a smile.

"Greetings, Alliance Leader!"

Chen Xuan cupped his fists.

"No need for formalities."

Chu Shanhe waved his hand gently, a smile on his face. "You’ve done very well. You have my style from back in the day."

With this sentence, he was really just flattering himself.

If he were being honest, Chen Xuan was far more of a monster than he had been in his youth.

He sighed inwardly, still finding it somewhat hard to believe.

’Are all young people this terrifying nowadays?’

’Or did Chen Xuan have some heaven-defying fortuitous encounter in Nanlin Prefecture?’

’But all in all, the Martial Alliance had truly found a treasure this time.’

’If they nurtured him well, the Martial Alliance could definitely produce another expert on the Sky Ranking. It shouldn’t even be a problem for him to surpass me in the future.’

"Chen Xuan, what do you need right now? You can say it all at once. Anything I can provide, I will!"

Chu Shanhe was all smiles, being exceptionally generous.

A genius naturally had to be treated like a genius.

"Alliance Leader, I need heavenly treasures for cultivation. The more, the better!"

Chen Xuan cupped his fists.

"Heavenly treasures..."

Chu Shanhe smiled. "How about this? I’ll take you to the treasury to have a look. You can pick out whatever you need. How does that sound?"

"Oh?"

Chen Xuan’s eyes lit up. "Are there still heavenly treasures for cultivation left?"

"There should be some left. Let’s go."

Chu Shanhe chuckled, immediately rising and walking out.

As for the others, he dismissed them with a gentle wave of his hand.

Chen Xuan immediately followed Chu Shanhe.

Before long, the two arrived at the treasury.

The old man guarding the treasury saw the Alliance Leader in person and naturally didn’t dare say much, immediately letting them in.

"This is the Martial Alliance’s treasury. The heavenly treasures and such are all on the first floor. Take a look for yourself,"

Chu Shanhe said.

Chen Xuan’s gaze immediately swept across the room as he walked toward a set of shelves on one side.

Indeed, there were many items placed on the shelves.

A dazzling array of goods.

Pills, Spirit Medicines, various healing supplies, cultivation items... they were packed densely together.

But he had to admit, there were very few items that could directly aid in cultivation.

There were about seven heavenly treasures left.

"How many can I take?"

Chen Xuan asked subconsciously.

"As many as you want. It’s no problem even if you take them all."

Chu Shanhe’s tone was calm. He said, "These things are kept here to be used by people. It’s just that some can’t absorb them completely, while others can. You happen to be the latter."

’If Chen Xuan’s aptitude were even slightly worse, he would have advised him to be more restrained and take them one by one.’

’But Chen Xuan had already crossed three minor realms in a single day.’

’What else could he say?’

’Tell him to slow down so he doesn’t choke?’

’What a joke!’

’A genius like this should be piled high with heavenly treasures. Let him take as much as he can handle.’

"Alright then, I’ll take them all."

Chen Xuan said immediately.

’Seven heavenly treasures, combined with his remaining retribution points, would definitely allow him to advance again.’

Chen Xuan took out a bundle from his robes and packed all seven heavenly treasures inside.

"Chen Xuan, cultivate well. I might have to ask you for a favor,"

Chu Shanhe suddenly said with a light laugh.

’Originally, he had planned to wait a while longer.’

’After all, Chen Xuan had only just stepped into the True Essence First Layer before. If he were to rashly confront those guys from the Grotto Heavens, his chances of victory would have been slim.’

’But now, Chen Xuan was at the True Essence Third Layer.’

’So why the hell would he wait any longer!’

’He could barely contain himself now.’

’Years of pent-up frustration finally had to be vented.’

"Oh?"

Chen Xuan looked puzzled. "What is it, Alliance Leader? Please speak freely."

"Regarding the matter of the Grotto Heavens, did Elder Zhuo explain the details to you?"
