"Forget it, I'm not interested. I still need to cultivate." With that, Chu Feng wanted to leave.
At the side, Zhang Lin sneered, "Cultivate? Chu Feng, this isn't the old you."
"That's right. I've thought things through. I don't want to leave any regrets," said Chu Feng.
After hearing Chu Feng's words, Zhang Lin couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Meanwhile, the people who were following him outside also rushed in. When they saw Zhang Lin like this, all of them stuck their heads out to see what was going on.
Zhang Lin was currently in a very bad mood.
His talent was very poor, but he also harbored the dream of becoming a powerhouse.
But after a few years of hard work, he knew that he had no hope!
His talent was really too poor.
He wanted to give up, but he didn't want to betray his past efforts.
Until he saw Chu Feng.
At that time, Chu Feng had given up even earlier.
Thus, the two of them became allies.
Yes, they became friends that comforted each other, helping each other forget their past efforts.
Everything was going smoothly, and there were only a few days left until the return.
Unexpectedly, Chu Feng actually wanted to work hard!
What a joke!
Thus, Zhang Lin couldn't help but mock, "Chu Feng, if you really don't want to give up, why are you only working hard now? Do you really think you can break through to the Early-stage Qi Refinement realm?"
Chu Feng couldn't help but shake his head at Zhang Lin's expression.
Initially, he thought that Zhang Lin was someone who shared the same fate as him.
To think that Zhang Lin would have such a character!
Hence, he was even more disappointed in him and did not intend to spend more time convincing him.
"Hmph, the examination is in a few days' time. So what if you try harder?" Zhang Lin said, "Isn't it the same as us being sent down the mountain? What are you pretending for? Do you think you can stay behind just because you try harder?"
Chu Feng shook his head and said, "I just don't want to leave any regrets!"
After saying that, he turned around and left.
He didn't need anything negative now.
Compared to the happiness in front of him, he wanted more happiness in the future.
Even though Zhang Lin and the others were laughing so happily right now, they would surely cry when the day came!
After all, this was a place where they had lived for a few years. Furthermore, this place was also their dream. Being kicked out of here was the same as being hit on the head hard.
It could be said that the happier they were, the more painful it would be for them during the assessment!
Then Chu Feng shook his head and stopped thinking about Zhang Lin.
He had to focus on his mission today as it was very important.
He had no more medicinal pills for cultivation and Dong Bichao could no longer drop them.
He could only change his target to the outer sect elder.
However, he had to first extract Dong Bichao's spirit root.
That was a key item that could change his fate!
At the thought of this, Chu Feng pushed open the door and entered. He was prepared to return to the mirror space once again.
This time, he came before Dong Bichao and chose the highest difficulty.
He then entered the battle to carry out the challenge.
The projection of Dong Bichao, adjusted to the highest level of difficulty, was indeed very powerful.
Both his speed and strength completely crushed Chu Feng.
Fortunately, he wasn't nimble enough, allowing Chu Feng to fight with great ease.
But his luck was really bad!
Even at the highest difficulty level, after three tries, nothing had dropped!
This made Chu Feng wonder if he had used up all his luck during his transmigration!
Fortunately, there were still two more tries to go. Chu Feng calmed himself down and challenged him again.
After several adjustments, it was easy for Chu Feng to deal with Dong Bichao.
Chu Feng had finally killed Dong Bichao without any injuries.
The world disappeared and Chu Feng returned to the mirror world.
[Congratulations to the host for winning the battle against the projection.]
[An Intermediate Wind Spirit Root had been dropped.]
[Does the host want to extract it?]
Chu Feng trembled as he looked at the system's notification.
He had never expected that he would really get it!
An Intermediate spirit root!
This was enough to change his fate.
Chu Feng took a few deep breaths and suppressed the ecstasy in his heart.
Although he was already very experienced, he could not help but laugh at this moment!
A few minutes later, Chu Feng finally calmed down.
Subconsciously, he wanted to extract the spirit root.
However, he suddenly froze.
Hence, he asked, "System, will the change of spirit root cause a big commotion?"
[The transformation of spirit root is equivalent to reconstructing the host's talent. This process is very vast. Please prepare before extracting.]
After listening to the system's words, Chu Feng secretly thought it was alright.
If he had extracted it just now, he would have to plant the spirit root when he returned. By then, such a huge commotion might attract the attention of the higher-ups!
With his current strength, there was no way he could explain these abnormalities.
If he were to meet some malicious elders, they might cut him up for research!
Therefore, he had to keep a low profile when he had no strength!
At the thought of this, Chu Feng asked again, "System, if I don't extract it now, will the rewards disappear?"
[No, if you choose not to extract it, the reward items will automatically be stored in your backpack. You can open and check them at any time.]
After the system finished speaking, a white light flashed at the bottom right corner of the interface.
Chu Feng looked over and saw a small backpack within the light.
It was similar to that of a game.
Chu Feng nodded and decided not to extract it.
[Ding ~ Choice complete. Extraction completed. Host, please check inside your backpack.]
After the system finished speaking, Chu Feng opened his backpack. As expected, he saw an item with wind written on it in the first compartment.
Seeing that there was no problem with the spirit root, Chu Feng stopped caring about it.
He then entered the mirror world and stood before the outer sect elder.
According to the introduction, the outer sect elder's strength was at the ninth-stage Qi Refinement realm and he was 60 years old. Most importantly, he had cultivated a Dao technique!
Chu Feng had never seen a Dao technique, so he didn't know how strong it was.
However, after so many days of stability, he still felt extremely calm. No matter what, he definitely couldn't act rashly.
Although he would not die in the mirror, the resources in the early stages were very important.
It forced him to be even more careful.
At the thought of this, Chu Feng chose to fight the outer sect elder.
He also adjusted his strength to that of an ordinary person.
In any case, with the first kill reward, he could test the elder's rough strength.
Moreover, the projection's battle ability was based on the body's instincts.
Compared to Dong Bichao, the outer sect elder was much older. Naturally, his body and reflexes would be stronger. Thus, he had to be very careful!
This time, Chu Feng chose the flat ground as the battlefield.
This was because he wasn't sure if the projection would pick up and use something on the ground.
If the projection could really pick up and control a weapon, wouldn't Chu Feng be asking for trouble?
Thinking of this, Chu Feng made his final choice.
The two of them disappeared from the spot. The system changed and they soon arrived at the flat ground.
Chu Feng stood there cautiously as he watched the outer sect elder's seal shatter bit by bit.
It had to be said, he had a very strong image.
The outer sect elder was very authoritative in the outer sect.
This made Chu Feng somewhat frightened.
If he did not know that he was immortal in the mirror world, he might have run away long ago.
Finally, it was confined to the edge of shattering.
The last shackle was then broken.
The outer sect elder who had his eyes closed suddenly opened them.
