Chapter 50: Starlight Immortal Body

Meteor grass was actually what Chu Tian knew as meteorite grass.

When this herb was discovered, it was used to treat bone meridian injuries. The effects were not bad, but there were other substitutes and since the effects of the meteor grass were only so so, not many people paid that much attention to it.

The true value of meteorite grass, was not for it to be used for therapy.

Meteorite grass was not simple, it contained the strength of the stars!

Therefore it could restore meridians, remould the bones, and refine the spirit's efficacy. This was the low-leveled cultivator's panacea.

Nangong Yun could in fact break through to the Awakened Soul realm, but she suppressed her cultivation to stay in the Body Refinement realm on purpose.

Why did she do this?

Was it not to help build her foundation?

The foundation built in the Body Refinement layer was the most important!

30,000 years later, the value of a single piece of meteorite grass was more than ten thousand times the current price.

But, because the energy in a single piece of grass was too weak, it could not exhibit the effects, so the current era's people did not discover its foundation building effects. Only if one spared no expense to acquire the one time use meteorite grass in large quantities and had the special technique could they use the power of the stars to refine their body.

Chu Tian was truly lucky!

This era's meteorite grass was dirt cheap!

1,000 herbs, through refinement and purification processes, turned into a large pot of blue tear coloured solution.

Chu Tian then added several body strengthening supporting materials right into the giant crystal barrel.

The crystal barrel was just large enough to fit a single person. Along the crystal barrel, there were several runes carved. They looked just like the stars in the sky, giving off a mysterious aura, this was the "Level 1 Star Body Tempering Array" from the future!"

The large crystal barrel was just like a large refining bottle!

Letting the human body be one of the materials in the refining!

Taking the power of the stars to refine the body and soul!

The human body was regarded as one of the refining materials, to be thrown in with the other materials into the array as part of the refining process!

Such creative ideas, such a fearless procedure, if it was spread to the outside, it would definitely cause a huge commotion!

Let's start!

Chu Tian, naked body inside, gathered spirit energy and clapped his hands.

The rune array design on the barrel was completely activated by the spirit energy, suddenly a dazzling light shined out.

The solution began to boil, bubbles continued to rise out, patches of blue light seeped out. The power of the stars struggled to escape as Chu Tian absorbed it into his pores to refine his body.

Satisfying!

A pure, incomparable ancient energy penetrated every corner of his body, nourishing every drop of blood and refining his bone marrow. Bits and pieces of star power gathered in his meridians forming a stream, cleansing out the impurities of his body and expanding his meridians.

Moreover the power of the stars directly seeped into his soul.

His soul obtained a warm energy and his Spiritual Sense naturally expanded!

From Chu Tian's brain emerged an ancient cultivation technique - "Starlight Immortal Body"!

This was a very strong defense type cultivation technique, but the difficulty was too high because in the process of practicing, one must absorb the power of the stars. If they could not obtain it from external sources, then they could only practice on starry nights which made the progress extremely slow. Even in 5-8 years they may not even cross the threshold.

Starlight tempering the body while practicing could speed up the cultivation technique!

Since Chu Tian came to this era, he had not practiced any cultivation techniques. "Heaven Soaring Fist" and "Diamond Artery Cutting Finger" were both first class and could be considered a good foundational martial art. It would be fine for hitting a couple of cultivators, but difficult for formal occasions.

This "Starlight Immortal Body"was a precious cultivation technique in the future!

Practiced to the peak, the starlight would protect the body, ten thousand evils could not invade, swallowing the power of the heavens and stars to quickly restore spirit energy and injuries. If this cultivation technique was achieved, he would have the power to sweep away most cultivators of the same level and even have the qualification to challenge levels beyond him!

Most high level and special cultivation techniques required a lot of resources.

The"Starlight Immortal Body"was the same. On the mainland, where could one find a treasured material with the power of the stars, remould the body and cleanse the bone marrow? Wouldn't the price be expensive?

Under the current setting, it would definitely burn a lot of money!

That was why the"Starlight Immortal Body"was almost lost in the future!

Despite studying it, Chu Tian had never thought that there would be a day when he could practice it.

A quarter of the hour later, the blue tear coloured liquid gradually turned clear. Chu Tian's body was covered in a light blue starlight, like a piece of crystal emitting pure blue light!

Not bad, not bad!

He got his money's worth from the 1,000 pieces meteorite grass!

Chu Tian had broken through to the 8th Body Refinement layer!

The first time refining with starlight, the effects were quite evident, but in the future the effects would gradually diminish.

But, the biggest advantage of starlight refining cultivation lay in improving the physique and enhancing the heritage.

If under the effects of refining for a long time, not only would the Starlight Immortal Body become stronger, it would also improve one's physique. In a same level circumstance, one's spirit energy would be greater than the average person.

Crash!

The waves turned over!

Chu Tian put on some clothes, went over to a mirror to see his reflection and he saw the jade like skin which would cause women to go crazy with envy. Chu Tian clenched his fist, faint starlight shone out. This was the power of the Starlight Immortal Body!

Naturally, it was impossible to master a cultivation technique in one sitting!

The cultivation techniques of the continent was divided into 4 stages, Small Success, Obscure, Large Success, and Perfection. The deeper the practice, the stronger the effects were.

The"Starlight Immortal Body"had a clear division for each of the four stages. The Glass Body, Diamond Body, Sacred Light Body, and Immortal Body. With Chu Tian's little insight he was still far from achieving the Small Success Glass Body!

But nonetheless.

Chu Tian's various defensive capabilities had increased considerably!

It was not the more the better for cultivation techniques. If one wanted to practice a cultivation technique, there were two major prerequisites. One, the cultivation technique was compatible to their source spirit. Two, one's own body must not reject the cultivation technique.

Nangong Yun had the Fire Phoenix Source Spirit and practiced the"Burning the Heavens Art" fire cultivation technique passed down through her family, which happened to complement her source spirit. Otherwise if she practiced an ice cultivation technique, even if the cultivation technique was stronger than her"Burning the Heavens Art", she would have no way to show its true might.

Among cultivation techniques, rejection was normal, even for complementary cultivation techniques, it would still be possible.

It also wasn't the more cultivation techniques you practiced, the more refined it would be. Cultivators who practiced a single cultivation technique their whole life were not the minority.

Usually before a person determined the properties of their source spirits, they would not blindly practice a cultivation technique.

Chu Tian chose the "Starlight Immortal Body"as his first cultivation technique not just because of its defensive capabilities and other abilities.

In fact, the greatest advantage of the "Starlight Immortal Body"was its "nurturing" effects and not its fighting capabilities!

This was an outstanding body nurturing cultivation technique, not only did it not produce any side effects, instead it helped remould the body's meridians, strengthen the physique, and enhanced talent. Although the defensive capabilities and other abilities were very strong, its nature was very mild so there was no rejection!

In other words.

Regardless of what source spirit awakened.

Regardless of whether one practiced other cultivation techniques.

This"Starlight Immortal Body"would not exhibit any rejection.

It laid a powerful foundation for future cultivation without leaving any worries. This bringing only benefits and having no harm cultivation technique was truly an outstanding foundation building technique!

Many years had passed since anyone could practice this Starlight Immortal Body to the large success stage!

It had almost disappeared from the continent!

Chu Tian had the luck to accidentally see it and it was because of his photographic memory that he could remember it. He highly anticipated that through the present continent's help, he could achieve the large success stage and achieve the Sacred Light Body, maybe even achieve the Immortal Body!

At the same time, Chu Tian recognized a problem.

This"Starlight Immortal Body"had almost disappeared, it was far from an outstanding technique, even with the cultivation resources of the future, it was hard to support this technique.

Throughout history, how many cultivation techniques like this"Starlight Immortal Body"almost disappeared this way? In this time period, perhaps he could find even stronger ancient cultivation techniques!

[TL note - Ya I know these two sentences are confusing, but basically he's saying how the future regarded this technique as trash, but in this time period it isn't since he can find resources to practice it.]

Meng Qingwu and Meng Yingying came back.

Meng Qingwu had already soaked in the spirit cave spring and had taken the Qi Training pill to break through to the 7th Body Refinement layer. It was time for Chu Tian to fulfill his promise.

Meng Yingying was pleasantly surprised and asked hopefully, "Chu Tian, can you really treat my sister's chronic injury?"

Chu Tian showed a faint smile, "As long as she follows my prescription, there will not be any problems!"

Following prescription?

Why would she not follow it?

This deficiency that has she had since her birth had tortured her for 20 years now!

Meng Qingwu had tried eating different medicines and tried out different cures, but nothing had worked. Being in pain was the only thing that Meng Qingwu knew!

Chu Tian told Meng Yingying, "Prepare a set of acupuncture needles!"

"Okay!"

The little girl was diligent, she quickly turned her perfectly round bottom to go prepare the needles.

With a serious face, Chu Tian told Meng Qingwu, "Now, I'll pass on a cultivation technique to you, be sure to remember it because it will be forever useful to you."

It was not just another cultivation technique.

It was the"Starlight Immortal Body"!

When Meng Qingwu heard the entire chant, her face immediately revealed shock!

The profoundness of this cultivation technique exceeded any of the kingdom's inherited techniques. With it, one could start their own sect!

Meng Qingwu originally thought that Chu Tian would casually teach her a cultivation technique, but she did not think that he would give her such an amazing technique!

"The acupuncture needles are here!"

Meng Yingying ran over with a fine small box.

Chu Tian had already used 1,000 pieces of meteorite grass to create a solution that filled the crystal barrel. The blue tear coloured liquid emitted a delicate fragrance. Now, he could start treating her.

Meng Yingying curiously looked at the solution, "This is the medicine for treating my sister? Why is there so much?"

"Don't ask so much for now, let's begin, in a bit I'll start inserting the flying needles."

Meng Yingying quickly said, "Then I'll leave first."

"You can't leave, first help me find a piece of black cloth."

"Ah? Why do you need black cloth?"

Chu Tian said seriously, "I need to cover my eyes!"

Meng Yingying's stared at him with her eyes wide open, "While I, Meng Yingying, am not very smart, you shouldn't try to trick me like this, blindfolding yourself while performing acupuncture? Never mind inserting flying needles, is this curing someone or killing them? I only have one sister and if you hurt her, I'll make you pay!"

Seeing her sister like this, Meng Qingwu's face turned into a warm smile, "Yingying, don't get too excited. Chu Tian, just directly insert the needles, there's no need to be troublesome."

"That's won't do, I'm very serious. I have to use the flying needles, but I also need to blindfold my eyes."

"Pissing me off!" Meng Yingying said panting in indignation, "Why do you need to blindfold yourself when you insert the flying needles? What do we do if you hurt my sister! No way, I don't agree to this!"

"Fuck, you don't understand anything, little girl!" Chu Tian hit Meng Yingying's head.

Meng Yingying held her held and protested, "Hu, why did you hit me?"

Chu Tian stared and reproved her, "To pierce the pressure point, there must be skin contact, that is to say, you sister needs to be completely naked. If I don't use flying needles, wouldn't she be touched all over by me? If I don't blindfold myself, wouldn't her body be seen by me?"

Both of them were shocked.

Chu Tian continued to spit out in indignation, "What if you two sisters threaten me in the future and force me to marry her? Want to harm me? Bah! I will not be tricked by you!"

Two beautiful faces immediately turned red.

This bastard was infuriating, he simply did not know how to choose his words!

Meng Qingwu bashfully blushed, hesitantly she said, "Do I really have to strip?"

Chu Tian nodded, "You have to strip!"

Meng Qingwu's beautiful eyes discolored, "Can you really use the flying needles blindfolded?"

Chu Tian was a little unhappy, "You don't believe me?"

"No, don't be angry, I definitely believe in you, but….." Meng Qingwu was so embarrassed she could not talk, she almost buried her face in her tall chest and shouted in a soft voice, "I really do….I….."

Chu Tian snorted, "Then be quick about it and completely strip, I'm rushed for time!"

Meng Qingwu felt somewhat indignant!

She was a very traditional girl.

Letting her strip naked in front of a grown man, she would rather be sliced to death by a blade!

For a pure woman like her, this was a very difficult decision, but for this fellow, it was as simple as drinking water.

Could the flying needles pierce through clothes?

Who knows if he was intentionally tricking me!

Meng Qingwu's heart was full of reluctance, but after a few seconds of hesitation, she steeled her heart, "Fine, I'll just strip then."

Meng Yingying was alarmed, "Sister, you really want to be taken advantage of by this bastard?"

"Nonsense, who wants to be taken advantage of by him!" Meng Qingwu stared at her sister, her shy eyes full of rebuke, "Quickly go and find a piece of black cloth, blindfold his eyes tightly for me."

Meng Yingying went to find a piece of black cloth.

"Sit."

Meng Yingying was standing behind him, fiercely wrapped in layers upon layers, but because the distance was close, the aura this little girl exuded could be felt clearly. Moreover, her movements were wide, her tall and straight twin peaks would occasionally rub against Chu Tian letting him experience what could be called soft.

Meng Yingying had this scale.

For Meng Qingwu, you did not even need to mention it.

It was a pity he could not see it!

"Tie it tightly!" Chu Tian sat in a respectable gentlemanly manner, "If your sister forces me to marry her, you have to testify for me. I didn't see anything and I didn't feel anything."

Meng Qingwu almost fainted in anger.

Marrying you seemed like it was your loss?

You bold faced shameless person, even if you wanted to marry me I still wouldn't!

Meng Yingying ground her teeth in anger. Fiercely wrapping the cloth with both hand, wishing for his head to break and finally tying a dead knot!

Chapter 51: Curing the Chronic Injury

Chu Tian innocently said, "Start stripping!"

Meng Yingying looked at her sister, "Big sis don't worry, I'll keep my eyes on him!"

Meng Qingwu tightly pursed her red lips, her beautiful appearance that could overthrow cities and ruin nations was blushing red. A pair of bright eyes, just like a deep spring water, that could make a person's bones go soft.

Ai!

I'll just strip!

Chu Tian kindly helped to cure her disease and his eyes were already covered. Being this insincere was a bit excessive.

Meng Qingwu shivered as she untied her clothes, the fine white cloth gently fell to the ground.

A pair of slender, white, jade like legs. A plentiful, perfectly round bottom, a slender willow like waist, cannot bear to hold. It made all other women feel inferior, proudly towering in the sky.

A head of long black hair fell down, like a cascading waterfall.

Just like nine beautiful goddesses, her beauty could not be compared.

Meng Yingying fell into a daze.

Very white! Very beautiful!

Sister's body figure really made people jealous!

Meng Qingwu stood naked, her whole body was uncomfortable. Jade like skin, eyes like water, compared to usual she was less serious and dignified, but much more gentle and charming. Like a budding peony, beautiful, but not devilish, alluring, but not obscene, simply unparalleled.

Meng Yingying shouted, "Hey! Sister has already stripped! Why haven't you started?"

Once Meng Qingwu heard these words, her cheeks turned red like a peach and silently spat a bit.

Unexpectedly, Chu Tian said one sentence, "I understand."

Meng Qingwu was startled and used both hands to cover her chest, "How do you know? You can see!"

Chu Tian suppressed his smile, "Idiot, my eyes may be covered, but my ears are still working, I may not be able to see, but can't I still hear."

It was like this.

Chu Tian slowly stop up, "Prepare yourself, I'm about to start!"

Meng Qingwu stubbornly covered her chest, but it was a pity that they were too big so there was no way to completely cover them. Her face was flustered, not only because she was embarrassed about being naked, but also because she was afraid of the flying needles.

From her youth up to now, how could she bare facing a grown man naked?

Also, could this chronic injury really be cured?

Her heart was uneasy, it was beating like a drum.

Chu Tian took a deep breath!

Mind's Eye - Open!

In an instant, Chu Tian could see all of Meng Qingwu's meridian points.

Chu Tian knit his brows, "Young miss, your arms are blocking the way, how can I insert the needles, quickly move them away!"

"Oh….." Meng Qingwu moved her hand halfway, suddenly she moved them back in front of her, her eyes teared up, in an almost weeping voice she said, "You-you-you….. You can still see!"

Meng Yingying jumped up in anger, like an angry cub, "Good little bastard, dare to bully my sister! I'll fight with you!"

"Wait, don't be agitated!" Chu Tian accidentally lit two small barrels of gunpowder and he quickly tried to explain explained, "I can't see with my body's eyes there's no doubt about that, what I'm using is my Mind's Eye don't you understand?

Both girls stared blankly.

Chu Tian also said, "Simply speaking, what I see is nothing more than a mass of flesh, blood, bones, spirit energy, and soul. My Mind's Eye will not last long so if you don't cooperate, I can't cure you today."

Meng Qingwu bit her lips and slowly moved her hands anyway.

"That's the right thing to do!"

"Listen to my instructions, stand straight!"

"Close your legs and keep you chest high."

"Right, just like this, raise your butt!"

Meng Qingwu was so angry the roots of her teeth hurt, "Are you done yet?!"

"Ok, ok, stay still, don't randomly move!"

"Yingying give me the needle!"

Meng Yingying did not dare to ignore him and opened the little box, presented the needle with both hands. Her small face was tense and nervous because this was the most crucial moment.

Acupuncture with flying needles was a legendary skill, just by itself it was difficult enough, but Chu Tian was also blindfolded so could he really do it?

You could not even joke about this!

A little soft, a little hard, a little off….. All of these would cause problems to occur.

Acupuncture was very complex, how much hand control would you need to do it properly with flying needles?!

Remove the needle!

Insert into pressure point!

Meng Yingying was staring but still could not see it clearly, Chu Tian had already started.

A silver light flashed, a thin long needle stabbed into her chest about a few centimeters deep. Covering the needle was a layer of spirit energy that was continuously trembling.

Meng Qingwu softly let out a sound.

A slightly numb sensation, a little itchy but not painful, like being shocked.

Chu Tian realized his Spiritual Sense was very weak, he could not keep up Mind's Eye for long so he sped up his pace.

Several needles were inserted continuously.

She felt a numb sensation one after the other, in her thighs and other sensitive areas.

"Uh!"

Meng Qingwu could not help but make a humming sound. Her physique, by nature, was sensitive. With continuous stimulus, it was difficult for her body to suppress her reactions. She quickly closed her legs and her face became redder.

Meng Yingying clenched her fist and very anxiously said to Chu Tian, "Hey! Look at my sister, her breathe is short, her face is red and her legs are clenched. She won't have any problems right?"

This silly girl!

Really brought shame to herself!

Meng Qingwu quickly said, "I….I'm alright!"

Chu Tian suddenly called out, "Turn around!"

Meng Qingwu quickly turned around, several needles were sticking out of her body. Her arms, shoulders, back, buttocks, and thigh were all filled with silver glowing spirit energy covered needles.

Very terrifying!

So many needles sticking out of her body!

Meng Yingying trembled while holding her arms!

"Done!"

Chu Tian was exhausted, he was simply unable to use Mind's Eye anymore. This short period of time was his limit.

"Don't move first!"

"After a minute, the spirit energy enter your meridians through the needles, then we can pull out the needles. Afterwards you have to sit in the barrel and begin the next part of the treatment."

A minute passed and the needles stopped glowing.

This meant that the spirit energy had entered her meridians.

Meng Yingying hurried to help remove the needles and then Meng Qingwu sat down in the crystal barrel. The blue tear coloured solution soaked her body and a refreshing cool sensation enveloped her body.

Chu Tian slowly walked over.

Meng Qingwu's hands covered her chest, her eyes were flustered and her instincts told her to stand, "What are you doing?"

"Don't randomly move!"

"Ah!"

A pair of warm, powerful hands held her shoulders and pushed her back into the crystal barrel.

Meng Qingwu's face was so red she almost started sweating, being so close to Chu Tian, seeing his handsome face, full of seriousness, an aura of manliness of be felt and it made her distracted.

Little miss' skin was really smooth!

It was just like silk!

Chu Tian reluctantly removed his hand and said seriously, "I am going to start the source energy array and you need to start practicing the cultivation technique using the chant I taught you. Don't be distracted during the process. Using the flying needles just now, I cleared your meridians and helped guide the star power in to help cure your deficiency."

Meng Qingwu said in a soft voice, "I know!"

Chu Tian patted the crystal barrel with his palm, the source energy array started to glow and the solution instantly started boiling. Countless bright lights were released and started to gather in Meng Qingwu's body.

Meng Yingying was dazed.

This was just too mysterious!

This method of practice was just too strange!

Putting people in a barrel and using a source energy array to refine them!

Chu Tian's face was exhausted, "Yingying, let's leave first and let the young miss practice alone, we shouldn't bother her."

The two people left the room.

Meng Qingwu let out a sigh of relief, her heart was beating fast and it took a long time to calm down.

This bad fellow!

He only knows how to bully me!

Meng Qingwu showed a bitter expression, she seemed like a small shy girl, completely the opposite of the strong woman she normally was.

Meng Yingying helped guide Chu Tian to the courtyard and personally helped him remove the blindfold. A pair of big sparkling eyes stared at Chu Tian for a few seconds, "Hey, are you alright?"

"Don't you think, if you say it like this….Aiyo!" Chu Tian blinked and shamelessly said, "I suddenly feel a little dizzy, help support me for a bit!"

"Get lost!" Meng Yingying dodged to the side and gently kicked his feet, without giving him any face she said, "Look at your red face, it doesn't even look like you're about to faint! How do you feel? Are you happy? Other guys don't even have the chance to hold sister's hand and you had my sister strip naked in front of you!"

"How can that be? Do I seem like that kind of person?!" Chu Tian looked at her with a face of doubt, "You wouldn't be jealous right?"

"Jealous? Impossible!" Meng Yingying's face was flustered and quickly explained loudly, "Don't speak nonsense, what do I have to be jealous about? I….I don't like you! How could I be jealous? Moreover, sister wouldn't like a fellow like you!"

"Are you sure little miss won't like me?"

Meng Yingying confidently said, "I understand my sister, she would only like a genuine wise hero!"

Chu Tian shamelessly said, "Isn't this the image I've been portraying my whole life?"

"Bah!" Meng Yingying looked at him with disdain, "You shameless playboy, only ghosts would like you!"

After finishing her sentence.

A look of worry flashed in the little girl's eyes.

If her heart really felt this, only she would know.

"What you said isn't true! It's simply slander against my pure personality!"

Chu Tian wondered.

Shameless, I'll acknowledge.

How did I become a playboy?

Since I came to this time period, I've spent most of my time with you, I've never had time to hook up with other women!

While appreciating the little miss' beauty.

He never did anything out of the ordinary!

An hour later, Meng Qingwu put on her long white gown and walked out of the room.

Meng Qingwu's change was truly big, her wet hair over her shoulders, her jade like skin, smooth and white like ivory. Compared to her beauty before, her body was now covered in star light, truly like an immortal fairy.

Meng Yingying immediately stopped bickering with Chu Tian, "Sister, how do you feel?"

"Yingying, I'm very happy, everything is fine now!" Meng Qingwu excitedly hugged her sister, "I've achieved a very fierce cultivation technique, from now I can fight with others normally! I won't be plagued with the deficiency anymore!"

Chu Tian came over, laughing while saying, "Congratulations to young miss on curing your injury and achieving this marvelous ability!"

Meng Qingwu could not help blushing when she saw him, she did not dare look at him directly and quietly thanked him, "I was lucky to have your help or else let alone practicing martial arts, this injury would have plagued me my whole life. I finally understand the true value of meteor grass!"

One time practice session for a single person used 1,000 pieces of meteor grass, that meant that 100,000 gold coins was need each month!

This was only for a single person, if two, three, or more people practiced the"Starlight Immortal Body", that would consume an incredible amount of money, just like a bottomless pit!

Also when one achieved the Glass Body, Diamond Body, and Sacred Light Body stage, the consumption rate would exponentially increase!

Meng Qingwu already thought that the company had made enough money, but now it seemed that it was far from enough, the was merely the start of the road!

Meng Qingwu never placed importance on money.

She only felt that managing the company was a type of responsibility.

Or as a way to show her self worth.

But now that all changed!

Money equaled resources and resources equaled strength!

A person with godly talent but lacking in resources would not accomplish anything. On the other hand, a person with mediocre resources, if they made the effort to obtain heavenly treasures, would definitely become a top player!

Meng Qingwu deeply felt the importance of strength.

Towards managing the company and earning a lot of money, she felt an unprecedented enthusiasm!

Chu Tian said, "You two, Nangong, Old Xiong, and old man Zhang, as core members have the qualifications to practice the"Starlight Immortal Body", although there aren't that many people, the consumption of meteor grass every month will still be huge. We must gain as much money as soon as possible, it would be best if we could purchase the whole meteor grass basin.

When Chu Tian once said this sentence.

Meng Qingwu thought he was joking.

Now it seemed, perhaps it was necessary, to buy the whole meteor grass basin.

But, this kind of astronomical figure, how could Miracle Commerce pay for it?

Chu Tian was very straightforward, he immediately taught the Starlight Immortal Body to Nangong Yun, Xiong Tianyan, and Zhang Liqing so that they could start practicing in secret.

Offering a cultivation technique free of charge.

Not taking any extra charges.

For them to practice the technique, all the needed was to buy the meteor grass needed.

Because of how casually Chu Tian regarded the"Starlight Immortal Body"they thought that it was a intermediate level technique, but to their surprise it was a top level foundation building technique.

Building foundations for one's own team was very necessary.

Chu Tian, with his free and easy going nature, was far from someone who valued one's own broomstick. He especially did not like to be calculating!

Xiong Tianyan and Zhang Liqing were both old, so their progress was slow, but Meng Yingying and Nangong Yun both reached the bottleneck with one practice session.

This Starlight Immortal Body was far beyond Nangong Family's inherited"Burning the Heavens Art"!

The fact that Chu Tian could take out this miraculous technique out to share!

People truly admired his courage and generosity!

Several people had their hearts set on following Chu Tian.

While everyone was busy practicing, Chu Tian was quietly carried out his secret plan somewhere in the city.

Chapter 52: Openly Conspiring to Steal

South Sky City's north side.

There was an extremely luxurious mansion.

Several teams of mercenaries were moving back and forth on patrol, on each of their right sides was a personal beast. Five hundred plump and sturdy battle wolves ready to be mounted to form a wolf cavalry army. A large beast parking yard was to the left, with hundreds of beast carriages parked.

This was the Ye Family's South Sky City branch headquarters!

These several streets were under the Ye Family's control, it was difficult for even Mayor to interfere in, the power and influence they held was hard to imagine.

An impressive beast carriage was slowly driving down the spacious street.

The Demon Beast pulling the cart was a blue marked deer beast that had a healthy build, a fine appearance, a graceful stance, and exuded a strong presence. The people that could afford to have this Demon Beast pull their cart were definitely not ordinary people.

The blue marked deer carriage stopped in front of the Ye residence.

A 40-50 year old person walked out.

Several gate guards, upon seeing this person, came over and bent down to salute him, "We pay our respects to sir Luo Yuanshan!"

The stature of the man was short and stout, his head was somewhat balding, but with his hooked nose and hawk like gaze, he exuded a deep aura that gave off a sense of oppression.

The mercenaries guided the beast cart to the parking yard and simultaneously said, "We ask sir Luo to enter the house, the head of the household has been waiting for you."

In the Ye residence living room sat three people.

One was Ye Xiong, one was Du Zhentian, and the last was a young heroic looking youth of around 30 years old.

"Sir Luo, you finally came, come sit!" Ye Xiong's eyes flashed a happy look, "Let me introduce you first, this is South Sky City Du Family's head of the household, Du Zhentian and this is Central State Chu Family's third elder's son, Chu Yi!"

"It was Young Master Chu Yi!" Luo Yuanshan gave the youth two extra looks, "Young Master Chu is so young, but your cultivation is already so deep; for the Chu Family to have such a young generation, it really is enviable."

30 years old and at the peak Body Refinement 9th layer.

Naturally he was one of the seedlings the family focused on.

Chu Yi's eyes flashed a proud look, but humbly said, "Sir Luo is overestimating me, actually in the Chu Family I could not even be considered in the top ten. Moreover under the light of Chu Family's number one genius Chu Xinghe, how could I dare to claim to be a genius from the Chu Family?"

"Chu Xinghe? The son of the head of household of the Chu Family, Chu Jiangshan. At the age of 16 he awakened his source spirit becoming the earliest person in Central State to step into the Awakened Soul Realm. Now that he's 22, it has been years since he showed his strength so no one knows just how strong he really is, and shares the honor of being called the Four Masters with Central States three other super talents!"

Chu Yi was considered a genius.

But if he was compared to Chu Xinghe, the two could not even be compared.

Not only did Chu Xinghe have a top grade source spirit, he also had the"Soul Sword Secret Art", with his mastery he could sweep away cultivators of the same level and even easily challenge higher level cultivators. The most important thing was that Chu Xinghe was still young and his future potential was limitless!

Central State Four Young Masters!

Awe inspiring fame!

Chu Xinghe was not only one of the Central State Four Young Masters, he was also the strongest of the four, their cultivation was high enough that even members of the older generation could only look on from behind them!

"The Chu Family really has an abundance of talented people, it truly was destiny's favour bringing brilliant prosperity being just around the corner." Luo Yuanshan gave a long sigh, then his voice suddenly got louder, "My Luo Family actually had a fellow who didn't live up to expectations, my nephew Luo Yu was killed by that bastard, he truly lost face for our Luo Family!"

"Chu Family has its brilliant prestige, abundant talent, and many geniuses, but because of an illegitimate bastard we've suffered a stain to our reputation." Chu Yi stood and said to Luo Yuanshan, "I ask sir to be relieved since the Chu Family can not tolerate this piece of sand in our eyes, so this time I've come personally to South Sky City to kill that bastard!"

Ye Xiong and Du Zhentian looked at each other.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend!

Chu Tian's growth was truly too fast, they were afraid that before long, he would be able to threaten their status. If they could collaborate with the Luo and Chu families, even that little brat Nangong Yi would have to give up any thoughts of protecting that cheap slave!

These few busy days have not been in vain, being able to draw in the Chu and Luo families, Chu Tian, that superhuman, should give up any hope of escaping!

Luo Yuanshan played with his ring, "I've heard that Nangong Yi was fiercely protecting that bastard?"

Ye Xiong nodded in reply, "That's right, not only is Nangong Yi's attitude tough, but he's also arranged secret masters to monitor us, also his daughter Nangong Yun has gotten very close with Chu Tian….."

Du Zhentian added, "Nangong Yung is not simple! Her reputation is inferior to the Central State Four Young Masters, but her potential and talent are not any less, in fact she could have long since broken through to the Awakened Soul realm, but she has forced herself to stay in the Body Refinement realm to build up her foundation. It is said that although she is in the peak 9th Body Refinement layer, she has the ability to fight with a 1st layer Awakened Soul cultivator!"

Luo Yuanshan face was grave, "She owns a god level source spirit? I've heard rumours of that!"

Ye Xiong added, "Besides Nangong Yun, there is also Alchemy Master Xiong Tianyan who isn't the least bit inferior. Xiong Tianyan's talent is extremely good, but he was infatuated with alchemy and neglected practicing, otherwise he would not be inferior to me. Moreover, South Sky City's general Xiong Bing and Symbol Technique Master Zhang Liqing can both cause trouble for us!"

Du Zhentian nodded his head, "It's really because of this that we have been unable to do anything."

Chu Yi could not believe it, "What is this bastard is made of? I just can't understand anymore. How is it that, in the half a year he went missing, all these earth shattering changes occurred?"

"Young Master Chu, this is exactly the issue." Ye Xiong said in a suggestive tone, "After vanishing for half a year what exactly happened to him? Perhaps he had a fortuitous chance, or perhaps he found an inheritance. Overall, Chu Tian with his cultivation at the 6-7th Body Refinement layer could easily skip ranks and fight. No matter what fortuitous chance or inheritance he obtained, it definitely is not small!"

Chu Yi's showed a greedy look, "Is that so? This bastard really has some dog shit luck!"

Yu Xiong continued, "Chu Tian also mastered some profound knowledge and used it to establish a company, especially that Source Energy restaurant. It just started doing business the day before yesterday and it made 280,000 gold coins in a single day!"

280,000 gold coins!!

Luo Yuanshan and Chu Yi both held their breath!

They were both born into large clans, how could they not know how important money and resources were to cultivators?

Fortuitous chance, inheritances, and get rich quick technology!

All evoked a strong greed!

From their expression, Ye Xiong could tell he had achieved his goal.

Ye Xiong got to the main topic, "Chu Tian is a small character, if we used a large sum of money to invite someone to kill him, it would definitely succeed. If Nangong Yi, at that time, comes to find us to cause trouble, we'll just deny any involvement and he won't have any methods to bother us."

Du Zhentian began to understand Ye Xiong's meaning, "Brother Ye's meaning is, if we were to do this, we shouldn't kill him this easily?"

Luo Yuanshan and Chu Yi both secretly nodded.

Letting him die so painlessly, was that not too easy?

"Naturally it won't be like this!" Ye Xiong showed an evil expression, "Chu Tian has to die, that is a fact, but we can't let him die so easily, we must make him suffer and bring ruin and shame upon himself. We must seize his assets and after doing so, we'll split it evenly between four people!"

The key part was four people.

Moreover it wasn't four families.

Luo Yuanshan and Chu Yi both understood.

Especially Chu Yi, in fact, he only felt anger towards Chu Tian because of the family regulations, but did not particularly care about Chu Tian, but he did not know that Chu Tian had such a successful business.

If Chu Yi did not report this to the family and followed the secret plan, then would he not have this all to himself when they divided the cake?

"Very good!" Luo Yuanshan nodded in satisfaction..

Du Zhentian said, "Zhang Liqing and Nangong Yi will be the biggest obstacles. Zhang Liqing has many connections, he can easily mount a counter attack. Nangong Yi is the Mayor, his cultivation is very strong, and he gets along well with Xiong Bing. Killing Chu Tian is easy, but taking his assets, I'm afraid it won't be so simple."

"Actually, I already planned for this!"

"What ingenious plan does Brother Ye have?"

"It's actually very simple, we'll just openly take it and that'll be that!"

Very interested by this, Luo Yuanshan said, "Openly take it? How do we do this?"

"There must be justification to send armies." Ye Xiong was confident and slowly said in a low, deep voice, "First, we must find a reason, a legitimate reason that will stop Nangong Yi from meddling and if we stop Nangong Yi, the biggest obstacle, that little brat won't be able to stop us, right?"

Luo Yuanshan quickly asked, "Has Ye Xiong already found a reason?"

"No, I haven't." Ye Xiong's voice raised, "But Young Master Chu can provide us a reason."

Chu Yi was a little confused, "How do I have one?"

Ye Xiong slowly guided, "Chu Tian was nothing but waste six months ago and he was locked up for ten years prior to that, he didn't have any opportunity to gain knowledge. But after rebelling against the Chu Family and fleeing, in six months, he suddenly has knowledge to create these inventions, so…. Where did these things come from?!"

Chu Yi was not stupid, he immediately understood, "Chu Family is actually a large academic clan and is very advanced in researching new technologies. When Chu Tian and his father rebelled and fled the clan, they stole the Chu Family's most important secret technology and used it to establish a new company!"

"Right!" Ye Xiong nodded in satisfaction, "Rebelling then fleeing and stealing secrets, these two offences, in any family, could be considered an unforgivable offense. Young Master Chu represents the Chu Family and since this is a family matter, Nangong Yi has no way of interfering!"

"Even if he interferes it doesn't matter!" Luo Yuanshan smiled sinisterly, "The Luo Family governs the judicial office in Central State and is in charge of supervising the office of Mayor directly. The Central Mayor has already fallen out with the Nangong Family. Therefore, they are already dissatisfied with Nangong Yi, so if he chooses to not interfere then that's fine, but if he does choose to interfere, with my judicial elder status, I can directly strip Nangong Yi of his Mayor status and substitute him with someone else. As well after I return, I can also send in a written complaint about him!"

"Good, good, good!" Du Zhentian laughed, "With this written complaint, from his interference with family matters, helping another family's rebel and colluding to steal secret technology, Nangong Yi will land himself in some serious trouble!"

Ye Xiong nodded, "The most important thing is, with Young Master Chu's help, we will have proper justification to seize his company."

"Ingenious plan!"

"Ingenious plan!"

"What's the first thing we should do?"

"Get support!" Ye Xiong stopped before continuing, "The Ye Family and the Du Family have large local influences, we can forcefully interfere with the media and let them release the news about Chu Tian rebelling against the Chu Family and stealing secret technology. We'll cause a stir in the public and under this formidable oppression from the public, Young Master Chu and Sir Luo will act and forcefully apprehend Chu Tian."

If it was like this!

Chu Tian would bring ruin and shame upon himself!

In this time period, there were many families and each family was highly independent, so as long as it did not break the kingdom's laws, family regulations were considered a legitimate reason.

Rebelling against the clan!

Stealing secrets!

These were all capital offenses!

Regardless of which family, it was all the same!

Under this situation, how the family wanted to handle the matters were all the family's internal matters. Outsiders, especially officials, were absolutely not allowed to interfere or else they would be severely punished.

Nangong Yi and Xiong Bing wanted to protect Chu Tian?

Not only would it be hard to do, but it would also start a show!

As this big net of a plot slowly unfolded, Ye Xiong's eyes burned with the flames of revenge. He had spent a long time planning to draw in the Chu and Luo Families' power. Now that Nangong Yi had no way to protect him, Chu Tian was definitely doomed!

Chapter 53: Came looking for trouble

Chu Tian closed up for several days and used 5000 pieces of meteorite grass, the total value was around 60000 gold coins.

Finally breaking through thresholds for the Starlight Immortal Body.

However compared to the small success Glass Body, there was still a great difference. The consumption of the cultivation technique also wasn't constant, the deeper the insight, the more material it required as it slowly grew exponentially!

With Miracle Commerce restaurant's current situation, it was hard to support even one person's practice requirement, not to mention the money required for Miracle Commerce's other projects, and not to mention training other people, and also they had to support Chu Tian as he practiced other cultivation techniques.

How was this cultivating?

It was simply burning money!

But from this cultivation, Chu Tian had obtained many benefits.

He had achieved the 8th Body Refinement layer, but it was not his cultivation where he benefited the most. The power of the stars had completely cleansed the inside and outside of his body, his meridian strength and spirit energy quantity had both increased immensely.

Chu Tian's body strength had increased several times!

This without a doubt had built a strong, stable foundation!

As long as he had enough materials, it was only a matter of time before Chu Tian could reach the Glass Body boundary!

Miracle Commerce was a collective group, so without enough strong people to take command, after it expanded, it would have many problems to face. So to increase the strength of the others, Chu Tian generously passed on his knowledge and personally instructed the core members.

Today, Meng Qingwu, Meng Yingying, Xiong Tianyan, and Zhang Liqing were all present.

They asked all the doubts they had about how to continue their cultivation.

Chu Tian pertinently explained and guided them one by one.

The knowledge of 30000 years in the future was not something that could be joked about, just one drop of Chu Tian's piss knew more than the average person. It could not be said that it was invincible, but in terms of theoretical knowledge, it was absolutely powerful and far ahead.

[TL note - Why a drop of his urine?.... But ya the second part is talking about the knowledge of the 30000 years in the future not the urine.]

Every piece of information, was the accruement of several tens of thousands of years of information.

Every theory, was the research results of numerous well known people.

No matter how obscure or abstruse the question was, it could always be solved with the most straightforward method.

The proposals Chu Tian made were always powerful and unconstrained, they were always creative, giving people new inspirations.

Their Starlight Immortal Body progress could not compare to the speed Chu Tian progressed, but they had already reached the threshold. To them this cultivation technique was truly too abstruse, too obscure.

What they heard made them lose their mind.

At this time.

Nangong Yun burst through the door with an anxious face.

"Chu Tian!"

"Something's happened!"

She threw a pile of newspapers in front of the people gathered.

Letting everyone see each and every one of the shocking titles.

"People's Time"headline - "Chu Tian: A rebel illegitimate child!"

"The Daily South Sky City"headline - Chu Family accuses of stealing Chu Family's secret technology!"

"Golden Business Periodical"headline - Gaining fame by deceiving people! Chu Tian is a large swindler!"

"Mercenary Times"headline - "Chu Tian is truly shameless! Increasing his fortune with stolen technology! South Sky City does not approve!"

Everyone was shocked!

How did this happen?

Several days ago the media was singing praises about Chu Tian, but today like they all ate several jin of ****, in a single night, they turned against him and starting crazily bad mouthing him.

The three main points were.

1. Chu Tian rebelled against his clan.

2. Chu Tian was an illegitimate child of the Central State Chu Family, a bastard that did not have any status.

3. Chu Tian's technology were all stolen from the Chu Family from the time he rebelled and fled.

Chu Tian was portrayed as mean, cunning scum that stole technology from his own family!

Damn!

Those bastards could think of this kind of move!

There was no need to doubt that South Sky City would once again be in a stir!

Chu Tian was once again in the eye of the storm, and Miracle Commerce once again became the focal point of everyone's discussions.

Miracle Commerce was like a meteor, shining for a few days and then falling from the clouds to earth.

This kind of dramatic change, many people did not expect!

Naturally, the success of the Source Energy restaurant caused many people to be envious!

These articles seemed more justified, Chu Tian's life story was clearly stated for all to see!

A sixteen-seventeen year of youth, was it possible for him to come up with such state of the art technology? It was impossible! There was definitely something wrong!

Various doubts were continually expressed!

Zhang Liqing's brow knit together as he said, "This is truly vicious, this was done to let Chu Tian bring ruin and shame upon himself!"

Xiong Tianyan irritably said, "What nonsense! Do people believe this kind of stuff? We have to hurry and explain it!"

Nangong Yun's beautiful pupils flashed with angry flames, a palm slammed down on the table, her phoenix eyes opened wide as she exclaimed angrily, "Fuck! Explaining won't have any use! These bunch of bastards want to scheme against us! Old aunt here will just extinguish them and that'll be that!"

"You guys calm down a bit." Meng Qingwu felt a little suffocated, but since Southern Cloud Commerce was established, she had faced many ups and downs so she did not lose her senses, "This matter has nothing to do with the media!"

"Then it was done by the Chu Family!" Nangong Yun, ablaze with anger, said, "The Chu Family is centralized in Central State city, what influence do the have in South Sky City! What prestige and power do they have! My Nangong Family is still an Imperial City large clan!"

Meng Qingwu quickly said, "Because it's like this, the more fishy it is, this matter was obviously done by the Chu Family, but the Chu Family does not have much influence in South Sky City, so how could they have the ability to change the opinion of South Sky City's media in a single night?

"You're saying…."

Meng Qingwu solemnly nodded, "This matter on the surface seems like the Chu Family coming to cause trouble. But the final analysis, they don't have the local influence to cause this kind of trouble, so there must be someone secretly supporting them, or else this could not have happened so fast."

Understood.

Ye Family and Du Family are both ingrained in South Sky City. It was them that threatened the media to orchestrate this treachery, so they could coordinate with the Chu Family to launch an attack!

From the beginning it was all a part of their plot!

First they clearly investigate Chu Tian's identity.

Then they gave the news about Chu Tian to the Chu Family.

Then they provoked the enmity between Chu Tian and the Chu Family, using that to help increase their resource, weaving a large net!

Ye Xiong was wary of Nangong Yi and Zhang Liqing, he did not have a method to directly deal with Chu Tian, so he planned to murder him with a borrowed knife.

Meng Yingying worriedly asked, "What do we do now?"

"First we shouldn't blindly make a move, this is merely drumming up the support of the public, the killing blow shouldn't have been dealt yet. We can't stop them from talking, so just let them talk."

"But we can't just do nothing! This concerns Chu Tian's reputation!"

"Don't worry, these facts may seem astonishing, but in reality they are full of flaws. The more we try to explain, the more we arouse suspicion, so we might as well wait a few days and let it all blow over and everyone has cooled down. Then I'll try to mediate and bring back the public's opinion. Any rash moves could cause us to fall into another trap."

Meng Qingwu's brain was very calm, she was used to crisis management and was very experienced.

Chu Tian thought, "You're too passive, we should use this as initiative to attack!"

Meng Qingwu forced a smile, "Attack? They've clearly taken the initiative!"

Chu Tian narrowed his eyes as he swept over the paper, the corners of the his mouth turned into a smile that no one could see through, "Appearance only! Those idiots think that they have the advantage, not knowing that they're just digging a hole to bury themselves in."

Digging a big hole.

Burying themselves in it?

What did this sentence mean?

Several guards ran over in distress.

"Young miss, this isn't good!"

"There are many people outside!"

"They are rushing in, we can't hold them!"

The sky was cloudy, dark clouds hung above, faint flashes of thunder could be seen, a depressing atmosphere of a storm brewing could be felt.

Several hundred militants came together and surrounded the gates, stones and burning bottles were thrown into the garden, a sharp cry pierced through the courtyard.

"That bastard Chu Tian!"

"Bring him out for me!"

Chu Tian had his Hyperfocus and Mind's Eye so he was invincible against cultivators of the same level, plus he had started practicing the"Starlight Immortal Body"recently so unless he met an Awakened Soul Realm cultivator, he did not have to care.

Moreover he had Xiong Tianyan, Nangong Yun, and Zhang Liqing's protection!

They want him to come out, then he'll just come out!

Chu Tian openly walked out the gate, "Today's weather is so dreary, but you are all so passionate, I am truly flattered!"

"Stop speaking rubbish!"

"You are a rebel of the Chu Family!"

"We were blind, we never thought that you would be such a shameless person!"

Several Chu Family guards had an indignant appearance while staring at him. They looked just like they were facing the person who killed their father.

In the crowd, there was an around 30 year old youth, tall stature, sharp aura, and eyes like thunder. His spirit energy was dense, it was obvious he was a top grade master!

If this was a person from South Sky City, he would not have been inferior in any bit to Xiong Tianyan!

The crowd outside the gate was abuzz with talk, it looked like this time Chu Tian was in serious trouble!

"Everyone, I am Chu Yi, Central State Chu Family, the son of the fourth elder!"

"Chu Tian is the shame of our Chu Family, he should not have been born into this world. The Chu Family was benevolent and allowed him to live, but who would have thought that he would not be grateful at all and actually stole the family's secret technology!"

"These so called new found technology, all came from the Chu Family's research department! That is the hard lifelong work of the elders of the Chu Family!

"Chu Tian not only stole the family's secret and tarnished our reputation, he also injured the envoys we sent before resulting in one person dead and two crippled."

"Such a heartless, cruel thing, is such a cruel, merciless person is allowed to keep living, he will bring who knows what kind of trouble in the future!"

Once the crowd heard these words.

They were filled with righteous indignation.

No wonder that youth Chu Tian could come up with so many miracles!

All this time, this kind of thing, rebelled against the family and stole the family's secret!

"I never thought! That he would be this kind of scum!"

"You don't belong in South Sky City, quickly scram!"

"Everyone let's all punish this degenerate together!"

"Kill him!"

"Kill him!"

"....."

The crowd started reacting accordingly, but if you looked carefully, it wasn't hard to see that there were members of the Ye Family's guard hidden in the crowd, secretly guiding them.

The population was truly stirred up.

They were all filled with righteous indignation!

Chu Yi loudly shouted, "Grab this thief! Execute him on the spot!"

Several dynamic Chu Family guards suddenly sprang out from the crowd, they were prepared to capture Chu Tian alive.

"Scram!" Nangong Yun's sweet, delicate voice exploded out, a palm shot out creating wind pressure. The wind pressure hit the guards and knocked several guards away. "Who dare to move! I'll kill him!"

Chu Yi's eyes had a trace of a sneer, "Under the gaze of the crowd, the Mayor's daughter still dare to help this traitor? Men, come, take him away!"

A dozen people rushed out of the crowd.

These were the Ye and Du family's masters.

Suddenly a fierce pressure erupted from the distance, a strong, low roar was heard, "Who dares to cause difficulties for others in my presence!"

Nangong Yi leaped out from a beast carriage, like a goshawk flying gently and swiftly over the crowd, falling heavily between both sides!

The Mayor had arrived!

Chu Yi seeing Nangong Yi arrive, he was not surprised, "Mayor Nangong? My Chu Family is apprehending a thief, what qualifications do you have to stop me!"

Chu Tian was from the Chu Family?

Chu Tian was an illegitimate child of the Chu Family?

These pieces of news startled Nangong Yi.

However, if they said that Chu Tian's knowledge was stolen from the Chu Family, even if he was beaten to death, Nangong Yi wouldn't believe it!

If the Chu Family had this kind of technology, why would they hole up in this tiny little county? Wouldn't that be a huge joke?

Moreover.

Could an unreliable illegitimate child be able to understand how to use the Mind's Eye?

Could an unreliable illegitimate child be able to discover the crystal oil refining method?

If Chu Family had this kind of technology and discovered the Source Energy lamps and Source Energy pots, there would be no way that they wouldn't publicize it!

"If you wish to incriminate, you can always come up with a charge!" Nangong Yi stood in the middle, not angered by the threat, his strong aura oppressed all the people around, "A mere junior dares to put on air in front of this Mayor! Let Chu Jiangshan come here personally, I'm interested in exchanging a few moves with him!"

"You..."

Chu Yi face slightly change colours.

This Nangong Yi really has a big tone, he actually wants the head of household to come spar with him!

The Nangong Clan was one of the kingdom's three big family, Nangong Yi was from a branch family!

Nangong Yi walks forward a step, the formidable pressure, able to move mountains forced everyone to move back a step, "You still haven't left! Are you compelling me to make a move?"

"Mayor Nangong Yi, really big prestigious official." At this time, a low deep sound came from the crowd, "But using your power and prestige to interfere in the Chu Family's business, I'm afraid that's a bit improper!"

Who was it?

The people were all shocked!

Who in South Sky City had the courage to talk like this to the Mayor?

Chapter 54: Interrogation

A slightly fat, balding middle aged man calmly walked over.

This person had a hooked nose, eyes sharp like a falcon, his body exuded a formidable aura. While it wasn't enough to contend with Nangong Yi, it was enough to resist Nangong Yi's power.

An Awakened Soul Realm cultivator!

Nangong Yi's complexion slightly changed!

Where did this fellow come from?

Luo Yuan Shan smiled a taunting smiled and pulled a white jade token from his chest, lifting it high in the air, he loudly announced, "Main City's supervisor palace, Judicial Ministry law enforcement elder Luo Yuanshan is here!"

The supervisor palace held the authority in the Main City.

It was directly under the Central State Main City's Mayor and had the authority to give general and chief officials their positions, it was a large department.

Luo Yuanshan continued to loudly announce, "Nangong Yi has overstepped his bounds, interfering with the Chu Family's private matters goes against the laws of the kingdom. This elder cannot sit by and do nothing, therefore I ask the Mayor to stop interfering until the matter is properly investigated!"

Nangong Yi's face clouded with doubt.

Luo Yuanshan confidently said, "Mayor, my words are very clear! I ask sir Mayor to step out of the way and to stop wasting everyone's time!"

The supervising palace held the authority in the Main City and Nangong Yi's status was not steady, if the supervising palace took this opportunity to create trouble, Nangong Yi might not be able to keep his Mayor position.

Did Nangong Yi still dare to make a move?

Nangong Yi suddenly realized, this was all a plot, "What are you guys planning to do?"

"The question sir Mayor asked isn't right." Luo Yuanshan had a righteous look, "The matters of the Chu Family, you don't have the right to manage, I don't have the right to manage, how it should be handled, we have to ask a member of the Chu Family."

Chu Yi gravely said, "The crime of rebelling against the family, death is the only option. Not only did he rebel against the family, he also stole the family's secrets, he must be cut to ten thousand pieces and fed to the worms, by the prestige of the Chu Family!"

"Can't you hear?" Luo Yuanshan snorted and gently beckoned with his hand," What are you gawking at? Drag that thief in front of me! Cut him to ten thousand pieces and feed him to the worms!"

Meng Yingying indignantly clenched her small fist!

Not only did they falsely accuse Chu Tian, they also wanted to use such a cruel and evil method to kill him?

Meng Yingying did not have the time to open her mouth before everyone felt a tremble from under their feet.

Nangong Yi's cloak started moving even though there was no wind, a strong flame power surged from his body. Dense spirit energy starting releasing intense flames, a suffocating wave of heat covered an area of several hundred meters.

Rumbling!

The Volcano Source Spirit slowly appeared!

A terrifying aura erupted.

A destructive power began brewing, like a volcano suppressed for tens of millions of years was suddenly released, bring an end to the world!

Luo Yuanshan was shocked and stepped back several steps, his forehead broke out in a sweat, "Nangong Yi, you actually want to make a move against a member of the supervising palace? Are you tired of your position?!"

Nangong Yi coldly laughed, "It's fine if I'm not the Mayor! As long as I, Nangong Yi am here, I won't tolerate your kind of villains!"

Chu Tian's value was beyond the position of Mayor!

Even if he had to utilize the power of his cultivation technique, he had to protect Chu Tian!

Luo Yuanshan imposing manner fell, he intensely exclaimed, "Nangong Yi! You're a Mayor yet you break the kingdom's laws, what should be your punishment!"

"If you wish to incriminate, you won't lack a reason?" Nangong Yi's imposing manner was slowly becoming more formidable, there was even a ice cold murderous intent, "Trivial Luo Family elder, do you really I think I care about you? Even if I killed you, can the laws judge me?"

In this world, strength was revered!

Nangong Yi did not have the means to protect legitimately.

Then he just had to use force!

By all means, he had to protect Chu Tian!

Luo Yuanshan didn't think it would become like this, the whole plan was built on Nangong Yi giving in under difficult circumstances.

Who would have guessed that for a wasted brat, Nangong Yi would even give up the position of Mayor?

As Chu Tian was watching all of this, the corners of his mouth turned into an indifferent smile. In fact, Ye Xiong's reaction and even what's happening now, Chu Tian had already predicted it all.

After the summit ended, Chu Tian had long prepared for this.

Does this group of brats want to fight me?

The difference is too far!

Nangong Yun laughed excitedly, "Very good! That is more like my dad!"

Luo Yuanshan was unable to back down, so he crossed his heart, "Since the Mayor insists on breaking the kingdom's laws by harboring this thief, then I, as a judicial elder, shall put my life on the line to protect the kingdom's laws!"

"Good!"

"Elder Luo is truly righteous!"

"We offer our help!"

Several figures fell down from the surroundings, Ye Xiong, Du Zhentian, Li Changyun, and several other top experts instantly formed an encirclement around Nangong Yi!

Awakened Soul cultivators were joining hands to go against Mayor?

The onlookers were all shocked!

Facing all of these Awakened Soul cultivators, instead of getting angry, Nangong Yi face broke into a smile, "Good! Since you're resolved to fight, don't say that this Mayor did not give you a chance! Come at me together!"

"Mayor's righteous cause, this old man will help you!" Zhang Liqing gently stepped, like a breeze, he instantly moved tens of meters, landing beside Nangong Yi with a huge pair of green hawk appearing on his back.

"Screech!"

An ear grating hawk cry, pierced through the air!

Green spirit energy condensed into the shape of giant hawk, soaring above the nine heavens, disdainfully looking down on all living beings. A dense, formidable pressure covered all the people present, sharp murderous intent could be felt inducing fear in everyone.

Nangong Yi was brewing with extreme anger, "You want to fight! Then I'll fight! In this small South Sky City, there is no one that I fear!"

A little Chu Tian could cause all these Awakened Soul cultivators to fight like this?

The destructive power of Awakened Soul cultivators was devastating, it was simply a catastrophe!

Nangong Yi and Zhang Liqing, these two people both had frightening strength, especially Nangong Yi. His cultivation was immeasurably deep, his Volcano Source Spirit's destructive power was astonishing, and had overwhelming strength.

The surroundings were all densely populated areas!

The destructive power of Nangong Yi's volcanic powers was simply too formidable, even if it was slightly displayed, it would result in innocent casualties. Considering this point, it was impossible for Nangong Yi to fight at his full strength.

Zhang Liqing's cultivation was very high, but it was still difficult for two people to fight four people!

Once the fighting began, the two would inevitably be restrained.

The Meng sisters were feeling a bit helpless.

They had lost control of this sudden development!

The consequences of the fight between South Sky City's top contenders, people could not even begin to imagine the consequences!

Once this became a big matter, for Miracle Commerce and Chu Tian, it would not be good!

What should that do?

When the atmosphere had become this extreme!

A lazy voice, very ill timed, suddenly sounded out, "Sir Mayor, why are you so angry? This is just a small matter! First step back and let this little person say a few sentences."

Chu Tian was full of contradictions.

A litigant, but he didn't have a bit of consciousness!

Nangong Yi was so mad he almost went crazy. They want to cut you into tens of thousands of pieces and you still act like you don't care, do you have multiple lives?

All eyes gazed upon him.

Chu Tian walked out to the centre of the courtyard like talking a leisurely walk and faced Chu Yi's group, "You keep proclaiming that I am a member of the Chu Family and that I rebelled against the family and stole the family's secrets, but while we're on this topic…."

Chu Tian showed a cheap smile, "Am I, really a member of the Chu Family?"

Everyone was shocked!

What did this sentence mean?

Could it be that Chu Yi had recognized the wrong person?

Chu Yi angrily said, "If you aren't a member of the Chu Family, then perhaps you were born out of a rock!"

"You must have evidence to say such things!" Chu Tian deceitfully smiled, "Where is the evidence? Why don't you take out the genealogy for everyone to see! If the genealogy has my, Chu Tian's name on it then I'll cleanly bare my head for the execution?"

"Scoundrel thing! How could a bastard like you tarnish our genealogy!"

"Now doesn't that feel strange, if I am not in the genealogy, can I be considered a member of the Chu Family? If I am not in the genealogy, how could I have committed the crime of rebelling against the family? If I am not in the genealogy, how can the Chu Family try to punish me with their regulations!"

These kinds of remarks.

Everyone could only gawk.

The family system of the continent was very strict, every male offspring, regardless of what branch line, had to be registered in the genealogy.

The kingdom's laws allowed family regulations to exist, but its reaches were not infinite, otherwise what use were the kingdom's laws? The family regulations had an applicable range, the range was only within the family and the genealogy was representation of who was in the family!

A person who cannot enter the genealogy, will lose all his resource distribution and privileges, cannot hold any official positions in the family, cannot practice the family's special cultivation technique, and was no different from than average bystander.

Since they could not enjoy the family's privileges.

They obviously could not be restrained by the family regulations.

If he did not enter the genealogy, that meant the family did not acknowledge him, so could he be considered a member of the Chu Family? If Chu Tian was not a member of the Chu Family, then the nature of the matter would be completely different!

Ye Xiong never thought Chu Tian would be so sly, "You are misleading the crowd!"

Chu Yi was seething with rage, "You little thing, turning your back on family, the blood of the Chu Family flows in your body, we've worked hard raised you for ten years, such ungrateful words you can actually say? You really are a heartless, cruel bastard!

Raised for ten years?

More like kept captive for ten years!

Even though he had lost his memories, Chu Tian could still feel that during those ten years he was treated like a dog!

His father suffered extreme humiliation, so he brought Chu Tian to flee, but ended up being killed and Chu Tian was reduced to being a slave.

Chu Yi started attacking from another angle, "Stealing the Chu Family's secrets, just this fact is enough for you to be chopped to ten thousand pieces!"

"You accuse me of stealing your technology, but where is your evidence?" Chu Tian sees Chu Yi's contracted expression and smiled while shaking his head, "I ask you not to pretend that everyone here is an idiot, anyone with a little bit of brain would be able to see through your nonsense!"

Chu Yi bit down hard, "Give up any ideas of trying to quibble!"

Chu Tian faced the sky and laughed, his voice became stronger and he loudly began to interrogate.

"Then, I'll just ask you a few questions!"

"If the Chu Family invented the Source Energy lamp and pot, then why would then not make a single move for half a year. Why would they allow me to establish my own company in South Sky City and to earn my first pot of gold? Perhaps the Chu Family is full of good-for-nothings?"

"If the Chu Family really had this kind of treasured technology, why would they not send cultivators to steal it back from this trivial person who can't even be a part of the genealogy? Moreover it has been half a year since you've been robbed, but there has been no response at all? Perhaps the Chu Family is full of idiots?"

"If I really stole the Chu Family's technology and it was discovered by the Chu Family, this kind of important matter, why does the Chu Family hierarchy not have any kind of response and instead sends a little junior here instead? Perhaps the Chu Family have all died?

"You answer me these questions!"

"Why!"

A series of questions.

All cunning and precise!

Each one addressing a key point!

Everyone that heard this was suddenly enlightened, this matter was truly fishy, but the matter had developed too quickly and no one had time to think it through. They only felt angry because they were caught up by the mood!

Ye Xiong, Luo Yuanshan, and Du Zhentian complexion paled.

He really could eloquently argue!

The reason why they took action so quickly was to not give Chu Tian any time to think. They would first stall them with a show of strength, then with lightning like momentum, dispose of him and worry about the consequences after!

Ye Xiong underestimated the importance Nangong Yi attached to Chu Tian.

Even more he underestimate Chu Tian's arguing abilities!

This was a joke, father here came from 30000 years in the future and was the Continent's youngest Wiseman, usually no problems eating until I'm full. I love to argue with old immortals, these fellows think that they can win against me? Too immature!

Towards these questions, Chu Yi was speechless.

Ye Xiong saw that the situation was bad, "You little evildoer truly has a good glib tongue, you think that by distorting the facts you can trick these people? You keep going on about how we have no evidence that you stole the Chu Family's technology, but what evidence do you have to prove yourself! You spent ten years in the Chu Family and it hasn't even been six months since you ran away and was even reduced to being a slave, where could you have gotten this technology from!"

Luo Yuanshan nodded his head, "Brother Ye's argument is very rational, first we'll detain him and then interrogate him, we'll properly investigate and figure out the truth!

Once Chu Tian was detained.

Would he still have his life?

Chu Tian showed a faint smile, "Good, I'll just prove myself to you then!"

Everyone stared at him.

Can this brat really prove himself?

"Let's do it like this, Ye, Du, Luo, and Chu Family….." Chu Tian one by one called their names, his smiling face gradually receded and was gradually replaced with a severe expression, an expression that was strong as thunder, "To be honest, you four waste families, this father had not even placed you in my eyes! So let's just do whatever, weapon refining, pill refining, symbol arrays, whichever field you choose it's all fine! I'll give you three chances and if I win all of them, you guys don't need to do anything, just commit suicide to apologize!"

This kind of remark!

Everyone was shocked!

This kind of courage at this kind of time!

A single person was challenging four families!

Perhaps even if it was a profound master, they still wouldn't dare to be this arrogant!

Zhang Liqing quickly came over and said, "Don't be over emotional, this is an impossible task to achieve!"

Everyone had their shortcomings and merits, no matter how profound your knowledge was, it was impossible to know every detail!

Zhang Liqing's knowledge was profound, but did he dare to say he was invincible? The strongest here was the one with the deepest comprehensive knowledge, there were some people who focused on crafting first talismans and some who focused on earth talismans. In the field, there were also many small branches.

Chu Tian disdainfully curled his lips, "Old Zhang don't worry! This master here has given them three chances to prove that I am an incompetent person! If they can't do it, then these fellows would be a group of good-for-nothings! Why would I, Chu Tian, steal from a group of good-for-nothings?!"

Everyone already knew that Chu Tian was crazy, but they never thought he would be crazy enough to think of this kind of situation, he was simply insane!

A single person challenging four families!

This was an almost impossible to achieve task!

Ye Xiong gave Li Changyun a meaningful glance, Li Changyun understood, "Arrogant little child, if you want to bring shame upon yourself, this old man will help you!"

The chairman of the South Sky City Alchemy Guild was challenging a little brat that was still wet behind the ears?

This was too unfair!

Not to say South Sky City, even in Central State city, Li Changyun could still be considered an important person!

Chu Tian showed a faint smile, "Alright!"

Everyone's face turned to panic!

"But I am using my life and reputation as a stake, you can't just not present a stake yourself can you?" Chu Tian said this and suddenly stopped for a second, "If you lose, you'll withdraw from your position of chairman and scram from South Sky City! Old ignorant man, do you dare to bet?

Li Changyun's complexion paled.

This little brat had his eyes on the chairman position!

This chairman position was far from an empty duty, the Alchemy Guild's chairman had control over all of the city's Alchemy matters!

Once Li Changyun stepped down, they would have control of the Alchemy Guild, then Southern Cloud Commerce will be able to enter the medicine business. Coordinating with Zhang Liqing's talisman division, they would be able to sweep through South Sky City!

Ye Xiong's face also darkened.

For the Ye Family to have such status in South Sky City, it was dependent on Li Changyun cooperation. If Li Changyun lost his chairman position and was forced to leave South Sky City, it was equal to cutting off an arm from the Ye Family!

Chapter 55: Competition of poisons

A teenage youth in the Body Refinement realm dare to gamble with his life!

A dignified Awakened Soul realm cultivator!

The Alchemy Guild's Chairman!

A well renowned person!

Li Changyun couldn't be so timid under the public's gaze, so with a gloomy face he said, "I accept your conditions!"

Can this wet behind the ears little boy win against me?

This fellow that didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth!

This was simply a joke!

"Since you don't fear any kind of challenge." Li Changyun thought of an evil and cruel plan, "Then this old man will have to ask for your advice in the field of refining poisons!"

Poison!

Refining poison?!

Everyone's face slightly paled.

Zhang Liqing's face was dignified.

Li Changyun cared a lot about materialistic gains, he especially like be opportunistic, therefore he learned the unorthodox and built up his poison refining skill. In the Central States, his name was well known, if he wanted to kill someone, no one had the luck to escape.

Chu Tian was not afraid and crisply laughed, "If this ignorant man does not fear death, then what do I have to fear! Since you've decided on this, I'll accompany you to the end!"

Complying so easily?

It was simply looking for death!

No wonder!

"Ha, ha, your ignorance and stupidity is truly rare in this world." Li Changyun gave two gloomy laughs, "We'll both refine a set of poison and antidote, then we exchange antidotes and ingest each other's poison. If you aren't affected by the poison, then you win, if you're affected by the poison you lose!"

[TL Note - Ya this was confusing in chinese as it is in English, but I think what they're trying to say is they'll make poisons for each other then create antidotes for the other person's poison.]

The onlookers were terrified!

How was this a competition?

It was simply playing with one's life!

Both sides would refine poisons for the other person, then they would both refine antidotes on the spot and ingest the antidote and poison together, if the poison exhibit effects, they would lose!

Refining poison was easy, but curing it was hard!

What was the danger? If you were a little careless you would lose your life!

This not only tested your Alchemy knowledge, but also tested you wisdom and courage!

The worry in Ye Xiong's heart vanished.

The poison Li Changyun used, no one could cure. This was an execution, that brat was dead for sure!

Killing Chu Tian in a competition like this, they could avoid directly conflicting with Nangong Yi!

"That's not good! This isn't fair!" Meng Qingwu furrowed her black eyebrows and walked out, "Awakened Soul cultivators can refine level 2 medicines, but with his Body Refinement cultivation, Chu Tian can only refine level 1 medicines. This kind of different level competition isn't fair at all!"

Xiong Tianyan also declared, "This doesn't conform with the spirit of the Alchemy profession! You can't compete like this!"

Li Changyun's words were sharp, "He was the one who said all those arrogant things, who can you blame? Right now there is no path of retreat, either admit your defeat or fight this old man!"

Meng Qingwu was angry, "Surnamed Li, you are also a renowned person, are you not afraid of being mocked for being so shameless?"

Li Changyun disdainfully said, "With this kind of villain, there is no need for morality!"

Xiong Tianyan started insulting, "Good old dog! Who is the real shameless person? It seems to me that you're the one who's truly shameless!"

Li Changyun was also angry, "Surnamed Xiong, there is nothing for you to say here!"

"Old Xiong, little miss, I have to trouble you to step back." Chu Tian was smiling without any irritation, "I remember once saying that this old fool was not even qualified to put on my shoes, this sentence still has not changed! If he wants to compete, then I'll just compete, am I, Chu Tian, scared to fight?

Rampant! Arrogant!

Since Chu Tian even said it like this.

Meng Qingwu and Xiong Tianyan couldn't do anything.

Li Changyun was so mad he almost suffered internal injuries, but he suppressed his anger. If this little duckling wanted to be stubborn, let's see how long he can keep it up for!

Li Changyun coldly listed his materials, "Ghost face spiders, six coloured centipedes, carrion scorpions, scarlet blood toad, twin headed viper, one of each kind!"

As soon as everyone heard.

They're faces filled with terror.

Five different violent poisonous creatures, any one of them was enough to kill a 9th layer Body Refinement cultivator!

If the five different violent poisonous materials were refined into a single toxin, perhaps even if it was used on an Awakened Soul cultivator, it would be hard for them to live through it!

Nangong Yi and Zhang Liqing's complexion changed.

This old fool wanted to refine the Five Poison Water!

Five Poison Water, as the name implies, uses five different violent poisons and mixes them together. So the poison was very complex, not to mention after being refined with a Source Energy Array, it would become even more complex, it was extremely difficult to decipher this poison.

Meng Yingying and Nangong Yun were full of confidence.

But at this time, they were both still extremely worried for Chu Tian.

Meng Qingwu pursed her lips and her body somewhat shivered.

If he did not not succeed…..she simply could not imagine!

This not so tall youth, at this moment was standing bravely, like a tenacious piece of coral resisting the turbulent rough sea waves, "Blood demon fruit, three leaves flower, and lamenting grass…."

The youth was calm, not irritated at all, like handling an unimportant matter.

Meng Qingwu stared at his handsome face, that pair of unconcerned dry eyes had a calming effect on her. Meng Qingwu's anxious heart was pacified.

The ingredients Li Changyun demanded were all violently poisonous things.

The ingredients Chu Tian requested were just average.

The difference between the two was so big, everyone felt nervous for Chu Tian.

Ye Xiong whispered to Li Changyun, "Master, are you confident? This person does not follow common sense!"

"Relax, this brat truly does have some skills. He wants to refine the blood spirit poison that is the strongest out of all level 1 poisons." Li Changyun could see through Chu Tian's plans and he smiled confidently, "If it was any other South Sky City alchemist, it would be a formidable poison, but for this old man, there is no threat."

Both sets of ingredients were quickly delivered.

Both of them pulled out their tools to begin refining.

Li Changyun prepared six different refining bottles, five to refine each of the toxins on their own and the final one to mix the toxins together and to do the final refining in.

Nangong Yun was amazed, "What is this technique, I've never seen anything like this before!"

"Chu Tian is in trouble!" Xiong Tianyan wrinkled his brows, "This is a high level alchemy skill!"

"What's wrong?"

"By first refining each of the toxins separately he's completely changing their nature, then they are refined together. The entire process refines the poison twice making it hard to guess the composition. Like this, no one could guess what his Five Poison Water was made of!"

Nangong Yun stared with open eyes, "First refining each of the poison into completed poisons and then using those finished products to refine a new poison, unexpectedly you can do it like this…."

Despite Li Changyun's morality being questionable.

His skills in alchemy, no one dared to question!

Chu Tian refines a single bottle, refining seriously without any change, just like an ordinary Alchemist refining an ordinary bottle of medicine.

The liquid gradually turned red and from the colour people could tell that it truly was the Blood Spirit Poison.

The Blood Spirit Poison was a violent poison, it clotted all the blood in a person's body, eventually the heart stops beating.

The fact that Chu Tian could refine this Blood Spirit Poison already attested to his skills in alchemy, but with this level of poison, could he win against a person like Li Changyun?

Everyone sighed!

This brat was dead for sure!

He dared to challenge the Alchemy Guild Chairman with this kind of skill?

Both sides simultaneously finished refining!

Li Changyun handed his poison over. Seeing the bright red coloured liquid in the bottle, he let out a disdainful laugh, "Blood Spirit Poison? You've already lost!"

Chu Tian held the Five Poison Water, it continuously bubbled in the dark green solution.

Chu Tian was calm, "Is that so?"

Li Changyun coldly smiled and said, "After drinking the Five Poison Water, in ten rests your body will be covered in festering pus and you'll die, then your body will release toxic gas in an area of ten zhang (3.33m per zhang)!"

Such a terrifying poison!

Everyone quickly withdrew, leaving a large empty space.

Chu Tian didn't think so, "Is it this fierce? Then I really have to give it a try!" He took the Five Poison Water and swinged it a bit and his brows wrinkled and after a minute, his lips turned into a smile.

"Now I'll start refining a cure! I need figs, clear light bugs, and nine leaf ginseng…."

Li Changyun was confident, calmly listing the standard antidote formula!

This was a cure specially for the Blood Spirit Poison!

Li Changyun was truly rich in experience, immediately starting to refine the antidote!

The bad feeling in Nangong Yi's heart kept growing, especially after seeing that Chu Tian was not moving at all, he hurried over and asked, "What ingredients do you need for the cure, I'll help you find them!"

"No need!"

Chu Tian's extraordinary words made everyone startled!

What Chu Tian did next, really surprised everyone!

He drew a Source Energy refining array and directly placed the Five Poison Water in the center, then activated the array with his spirit energy releasing a dazzling light that started to build up in the refining bottle filled with the dark green liquid which started boiling in excitement.

What was he doing?

Everyone was confused.

Li Changyun was also completely confused!

Chu Tian did not ask for any detoxing ingredients, but instead placed the Five Poison Water into a new refining array and started refining it again!

What this fellow insane?

What was the significance in doing this!

Actually this Source Energy Array was called "Purification", it was actually a common technique used by the future generation that had the main effect of purifying harmful substances and dark attribute energy. Under this purification effect, any poison would be dissolved and will turn into a harmless substance.

The Five Poison Water refined by Li Changyun was without a doubt a level 2 poison!

But it was made from five different level 1 ingredients!

Therefore, the toxins in the Five Poison Water, after final analysis, was still a level 1 ingredient, so Chu Tian used a level 1 purifying array which was more than enough to easily dissolve the toxins.

After several minutes.

Li Changyun poured his antidote into the poison Chu Tian refined and looked at Chu Tian tauntingly, "Can we start now?"

Chu Tian had already finished his extract, the poison inside the refining bottle had already turned light green and had stopped bubbling, "Do you want to drink first or should I?"

"Such insignificant abilities, is it even worth mentioning? I'll let you see the disparity between us!" Li Changyun drank the bright red liquid in one single breath and broke the bottle, "You Blood Spirit Poison is only mediocre!"

Chu Tian raised his head and poured the Five Poison Water down.

Hiss!

He unexpectedly drank all of it!

Everyone hurriedly withdraw in fright!

Chu Tian was now like a bomb, in a minute his body would fester up and die and then his corpse would start releasing deadly gas endangering the people near him.

"Chu Tian!"

"How do you feel?"

Nangong Yun, Meng Qingwu, and Meng Yingying was extremely anxious.

Li Changyun showed an evil smile, this little brat did not know the immensity of heaven and earth, he thinks the Five Poison Water is so easy to cure? Moreover, without and detoxing ingredients, he rashly refined the Five Poison Water again without knowing its composition, that would only make the poison even more complicated.

Even if a deity descended, it was still impossible to save him!

Nangong Yi, Zhang Liqing, and Xiong Tianyan were staring stubbornly at Chu Tian.

One rest!

Two rests!

Three rests!

…....

The entire ten rests passed and forget about the poison having effects.

Chu Tian face seemed to have a gloss to it, nothing had happened at all!

Li Changyun revealed an unbelieveable face, "How is this possible!"

"This flavour..." Chu Tian licked his lips and then smacked them a few times, "Not bad, a little like Suan Mei Tang!"

Everyone was so surprised their chins dropped!

Such a violent poison, in Chu Tian's mouth actually turned into Suan Mei Tang!

"YAY!"

Meng Yingying and Nangong Yun both applauded and loudly cheered.

Meng Qingwu's clenched fist slowly loosened and the corners of her mouth turned into a bitter smile, "This fellow, really cannot make people not worry!"

"How can you possibly cure my Five Poison Water!" Li Changyun old face filled with uncertainty, "Impossible, this is definitely impossible!"

Ye Xiong also knitted his brows.

Seems like Chu Tian really had some skills.

Luo Yuanshan stood and said, "Since both sides show no symptoms, then that means it is a tie!"

Chu Yi hurriedly said, "This fellow already promised, as long as he doesn't win once he would commit suicide to apologize. Now it ended with a draw therefore he didn't win, so there's nothing else to say!"

"That's right!"

"He should kill himself in apology!"

Some voices immediately sounded out from the crowd.

"I think Chu Tian is better!" Meng Qingwu's voice sounded, "A teenager, in a different level situation was able to tie with Li Changyun, doesn't this solve the problem?"

Meng Yingying hurriedly shouted, "What sister said is right!"

Ye Xiong insisted, "A tie is a tie!"

Du Zhentian said, "A tie doesn't count as a victory!"

"That's right!"

"Stop trying to argue!"

Both sides unceasingly debated.

The bystanders also flooded out in whispers.

This competition already solved the problem, Chu Tian absolutely was not waste, Ye Xiong's group is definitely setting a death trap, but what is the motive?

"Ha, ha? Tie? Who said it was a tie!"

The person who spoke, it was Chu Tian!

Everyone was startled as they stared at him.

Chu Tian with a mysterious gaze, used a sarcastic tone and said, "This master here, you didn't really think that what I refined was only a bottle of Blood Spirit Poison right? If you really think that, then you're too naive!"
