With a wave of his hand, Blake summoned a gust of wind to carry Virtuous Saint Hong Dae's corpse away from his front door.
He then sent a telepathic message to a nearby guard post to notify them about the fresh corpse he was about to send them with the gust of wind.
The guard post captain received Blake's message and ordered his own subordinates to prepare shovels to dig out a hole.
Shortly after, the corpse of a middle aged man flew straight into the guard post before it landed in the courtyard where the guards were digging the hole.
As it arrived, the guard post captain hurried down from his quarters to go and take a look at the fresh corpse.
Because in his mind, anyone that dared to posture before the mysterious Chaos Clan must either be an idiot that cannot see the immensity of heaven, or that they were too confident in their own abilities, resulting in their own deaths.
When the guard post captain went forward to take a closer look, he suddenly let out a loud yelp and fully released his Martial Lieutenant aura.
A shockwave was released as a result.
His subordinates were still digging the hole when the guard post captain unleashed his aura.
So when the shockwave escaped from the guard post captain's body and into the surroundings, his subordinates did not have time to brace themselves.
As a result, some of his subordinates were knocked flying into the stone walls while others were pushed backwards and fell into the pit they were digging out.
When they regained their senses, the guard post captain's subordinates were stunned, not knowing the reason why the guard post captain reacted like that.
The guard post captain increased his vigilance as he crept towards the corpse.
A breath later, the guard post captain exclaimed out loud. "This man is…Virtuous Saint Hong Dae of Goryeo?!"
His subordinates revealed looks of confusion instead.
"Virtuous Saint Hong Dae? Who's that?"
"I don't know. Must be a powerhouse from the so-called Goryeo?"
"Isn't there a martial clan called Goryeo in Korea? I'm pretty sure the captain meant the Goryeo of Korea."
"Goryeo of Korea? Isn't that a branch sect of the Heavenly Saint Cult? Or was it the Murim Alliance? Either way, I've never heard of this Virtuous Saint Hong Dae."
Countless chatter erupted among his subordinates as the guard post captain tried to keep his calm.
'Scary, to think that the vice sect leader of Goryeo would die in the outskirts of the Swordfish Kingdom like that. This Chaos Clan Clan Master is really strong. Thankfully, I did not underestimate that mysterious young man else I too would have died a miserable death.'
The guard post captain raised his right hand and his subordinates stopped talking.
The guard post captain bent down before he started rummaging through Virtuous Saint Hong Dae's clothes.
He wanted to check whether the man had brought along a tracking device of some sort.
To his relief, the guard post captain found nothing.
He had even checked the corpse's underwear, so he was sure that there would be no consequences if they buried the corpse now.
The guard post captain dusted his hands before he stood up.
He then looked towards his subordinates and gave them a nod before he retracted his aura and walked back to his quarters.
Chaos Clan, Blake's Residence
Blake sat in a cross legged position and meditated with his eyes closed.
Every time he took a deep breath, the pores on his body would open up and absorb the world energy from his surroundings.
The world energy would then gather in his dantian before he refined the world energy into martial qi.
Following that, Blake guides the martial qi into his spiritual sea via his meridians.
Upon reaching the spiritual sea, the martial qi would be greeted by countless waves of spiritual energy formed within the spiritual sea.
Wave after wave crashed into the martial qi repeatedly till the martial qi discards its violent nature and turned itself into the gentler natured mana.
The mana would then flow back into the dantian following the mana veins that have opened up next to his meridians, thus completing a cycle.
'One sword to cut down the Heavens, one spell to shatter time and space, one array to flip the world. To go against the Heavens, that is the truth of cultivation! That is the true path of my three Daos!' Blake's aura started to strengthen as he repeated this paragraph within his mind.
With every successful cycle, his meridians and mana veins would grow thicker.
With every thought, his mind and soul would strengthen significantly.
With every breath, Blake's body, mind and soul grew more harmonious than before.
And when his three treasures couldn't become any more harmonious, Blake would take a deep breath to calm his mind and restart the cultivation cycle.
Doing so not only retained the effects of his last cultivation cycle, but also added on the benefits he will get from the new cycle.
It didn't take long before Blake entered a state of Zen. In a half asleep state, Blake no longer needed to monitor his cultivation cycle nor recite the phrase consciously.
Since his body, mind and soul were harmonious with one another, they helped Blake cultivate.
His body would automatically absorb and refine world energy into martial qi before it guided the martial qi into the mind by itself.
The mind would then form waves within its own body and crash those waves into the martial qi without needing Blake to consciously do it.
Afterwards, the mind would then send the newly formed mana back into the body.
As for the soul, it continued to recite the phrase Blake had cultivated on its own, strengthening the mind and itself with each recital.
The Sun and Moon alternated between each other for a good while before Blake finally woke up from his state of Zen.
