Chapter 58 - Zhou Xinghe's arrangements
The news of Ling Dao defeating Gong Taiping quickly spread. Gong Taiping did not really attract much attention, but he was a subordinate of Zhou Xinghe after all. As the third senior brother of an inner sect disciple, Zhou Xinghe had long since been a Rus.h.i.+ng the Sky Stage warrior.
Even many elders of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect did not dare not disrespect Zhou Xinghe. Being able to become the third senior brother of the inner sect disciples, Zhou Xinghe's strength was naturally extremely strong, and many elders were not his match.
As the saying goes, beating a dog requires a master. Since Gong Taiping was injured by Ling Dao, naturally, his face would not look good. However, as a Rus.h.i.+ng the Sky Stage pract.i.tioner, Zhou Xinghe was too embarra.s.sed to personally deal with an inner disciple who had just broken through in true qi realm.
”Injuring my subordinates? If I let you safely stay in the inner court, wouldn't that make me seem too powerless?”
Zhou Xinghe looked to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, and he wore a black tight outfit. He naturally already knew about Gong Taiping. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a trace of anger in his eyes.
”He's only just become an inner court disciple, he's surely going to do the sect's missions. I have to go discuss this with Elder Yan and give that kid a mission that is absolutely fatal. To dare to injure my subordinates, just a simple lesson is not enough. Letting that brat die outside is the best outcome! ”
After becoming an inner disciple, one would have their own courtyard and could even complete sect missions. If you succeed in completing the quest, you will receive a corresponding reward. The harder the mission, the better the reward. Qi Condensation Pill, Inferior Sword Style, lower graded sword, they were all rewards.
With Zhou Xinghe's status, there really wasn't a need for him to personally act to deal with Ling Dao. Just by setting up a formation, he could put Ling Dao to death. The third senior brother of the inner sect disciples was considered a big shot in the entire Sky-splitting Sword Sect.
Ling Dao was naturally unclear of what he was doing. After Ling Dao found his own courtyard, he casually cleaned up. He didn't care too much about food or shelter. The most important thing was cultivation. Becoming an expert was his goal.
Having just broken through to the true qi realm, Ling Dao did not plan to do anything else. Every day, he would cultivate within the courtyard. As time pa.s.sed, the true qi within his body increased. With the experience from his previous life, he naturally was very familiar with his training.
Furthermore, the Desolate Immortal Slaying Force could constantly refine the sword qi in his body, which allowed him to improve quickly. Once these sword Qis were refined, it would be stronger than any heavenly material or treasure. It would be weird if he could improve slowly.
”The Desolate Immortal Slaying Force is truly terrifying. In my previous life, when I used to use Early Stage of the Zhenqi Realm, the true energy within my body wasn't even half as strong as it is now. From the moment I started cultivating the Desolate Immortal Slaying Force, my meridians expanded greatly. If an ordinary person's meridian is a small stream, then my meridian is a large river! ”
This was precisely the reason why it became even more difficult for Ling Dao to break through in the future. Others would have long since broken through to the same level of zhenqi, but he had no way to do so. However, once he broke through, he would definitely be much stronger than cultivators of the same realm.
Early Stage of the Zhenqi Realm merely condensed true energy within the body. If he wanted to break through to the Zhenqi Middle Stage, he would have to open up the two meridians. After that, his true qi would be able to circulate between the two meridians.
If he could open up eight extraordinary meridians, then he would be able to break through to the Late Zhenqi realm, and the true energy in his body would be able to circulate within the eight extraordinary meridians. If he were to open the twelve true meridians, then the true energy within his body would be able to circulate a great circle of energy. At that time, it would be his Zhenqi realm pinnacle.
Jiang Ren was the Zhenqi realm pinnacle fighter, and as for the Rus.h.i.+ng the Sky Stage Warriors, they were much stronger than the true qi realm Warriors. Right now, Ling Dao did not need to think that far, he had to first open the two meridians.
