Chapter 339
“A spirit stone? No, it’s a bit dark, and there’s some sort of powerful energy inside it . ”
Long Chen couldn’t help being a bit curious towards this thing in his hand . Its outer shape was similar to a spirit stone, but it wasn’t translucent . Instead, it was pitch-black .
It was around the size of a baby’s fist . There were powerful spiritual qi fluctuations coming from within, but those fluctuations were completely different from ordinary spirit stones .
“No, it’s a wind spirit stone!” Long Chen was startled . Wind spirit stones were extremely rare . They contained powerful wind attribute energy . More importantly, they contained the mysteries and profundities of wind .
A wind attribute expert would be able to absorb the energy from within, and while doing so, would be connected to the true mysteries of wind . That would be a huge a.s.sistance to their cultivation .
“Yes, this a wind spirit stone . I managed to accidentally obtain it from an extremely windy area . Once I recognized it, I immediately ran, but as a result…” Xu Yang hatefully glared at the Favored’s corpse .
Despite being so careful, someone had still noticed some clues and chased after him . This Favored hadn’t even known what he had obtained . Just because of a gut feeling, he had chased him in order to kill him and steal his treasures . That was truly hateful .
If he hadn’t run into Long Chen, Xu Yang would have already become a rotting corpse in this wilderness . But now he had not only managed to keep his life, he had also profited by becoming a Favored . His gratefulness to Long Chen could no longer be expressed through words, and so the only thing he could do was offer up this treasure .
“Brother Long, you have to take it, or I really won’t be able to return your favor,” said Xu Yang completely sincerely .
Although this wind spirit stone was precious, it was not more precious than his life . Then adding on that he had also become a Favored, he really owed Long Chen far too much .
“This thing’s not bad, but I don’t want it . ” Seeing Xu Yang’s expression change, Long Chen waved his hand and continued, “This thing isn’t useful to me, and I can also tell you have wind attribute energy, which is the only reason you were able to run for so long . ”
“Brother Long… I…”
Long Chen cut him off . “It’s fine . I was just doing what I wanted . I’m not actually so kindhearted and virtuous . I just didn’t like that little fellow’s pretentious mouth . In any case, I pretty much understand what’s going on inside there . You keep this and do your best to increase your strength . Otherwise, you might die at any moment in this place . ”
After saying that, Long Chen pressed the wind spirit stone back into Xu Yang’s hand and left . In just a short time, he disappeared from Xu Yang’s gaze .
Tightly clenching the wind spirit stone, Xu Yang’s gaze was filled with wors.h.i.+p . Long Chen’s magnanimity and imposingness had completely won him over .
He didn’t dare tarry any longer, and left to find a hidden place . He needed to stabilize his Dao-mark and refine this wind spirit stone .
As for Long Chen, this was the first time he felt a trace of warmth for Righteous disciples since entering the Jiuli secret realm .
It wasn’t the entire Righteous path that was broken . However, the majority that Long Chen encountered were all a bunch of idiots filled with evil tricks .
Furthermore, these idiots were the ‘outstanding elites’ of the larger sects . Could it be that larger sects were just concentration camps for idiots?
Long Chen couldn’t help sighing . Those lofty and aloof fellows all used their noses to look down on people while also harboring all kinds of wicked intentions inside . Instead, it was those who came from more impoverished origins that were more magnanimous and virtuous .
Long Chen believed that if he had saved a disciple from a large sect, that disciple might not even consider it a big deal . In fact, he might even believe he was ent.i.tled to being saved due to his status . People saving him was simply as it should be . All he would do is perhaps toss out a little reward and leave .
Furthermore, if you saved him once, you would have to continue saving him in the future . Otherwise, if you didn’t help him the second time, he would consider you a bad person and hate you .
“It’s you, Long Chen?”
Long Chen had advanced almost a hundred miles when the number of people ahead of him had suddenly increased . There were many people here slowly advancing, and as soon as he arrived, several monastery disciples recognized him .
“He’s Long Chen?”
“The one the first monastery sent out an arrest warrant for?”
“He looks like someone who puts on airs, but who would have thought he was actually a s.e.x fiend?”
Quite a few people were cautiously watching and whispering from a distance .
The ones to stop him were two powerful Favored . The two of them were wearing monastery robes, one from the eighty-seventh monastery, and one from the ninety-second monastery .
“Long Chen, you perverted traitor, how dare you swagger around here? Hurry up kneel in repentance,” roared one of the Favored .
The two of them hadn’t been purposely sent to target him by the first monastery . But as members from the top one hundred monasteries, they naturally felt incomparably powerful in comparison to those from the last place monastery .
They had also seen that photographic jade of Long Chen killing that woman . But that image was only of him killing her, and contained nothing before or after . They had no idea about Long Chen’s true strength .
So as soon as the two of them saw him, they immediately put on a chivalrous act, taking the place of the heavens to punish Long Chen .
“Die you perverted traitor!”
Pow .
The Favored that was shouting was directly sent flying by a slap from Long Chen . His body rapidly spun in the air in a beautiful arc, and with his teeth flying through the air, it somehow managed to be extremely aesthetic .
Long Chen’s face-slapping technique had already reached the level where he would be able to start up his own sect around it . Even if the Favored had been on guard, he still wouldn’t have been able to dodge .
Even the distant disciples who were cautiously watching were stunned now . A powerful Favored had been slapped flying the instant he walked up?
The other Favored only reacted a moment later . He quickly unsheathed his sword, but he only got it out halfway before the handle was kicked by Long Chen, causing it to return to his sheath .
That person was startled, and before he even realized what was going on, a large hand slapped across his face .
