In the Light's Hope Sect where Petal Life was at.
"WHERE IS SHE!" An Ice Queen woman shouted when she saw her daughter's Qi faded..
In more medium sects like these one's people would leave traces of their qi in a large bunker, when they were either unconscious, trapped, dead, or somewhere where qi does not work their qi spark will fade.
Petal Life's mother was the Sect Master in this all-woman sect and now that her daughter was maybe dead or trapped, she was furious.
"Go get all the outer, inner, and core disciples and send them to find my daughter," Holy Hope ordered her second-in-command.
"Yes, Sect Master," New Nature bowed as she went to gather everyone.
Meanwhile at the Gamer Hall everyone was celebrating as they had just destroyed a major threat and gained many rewards. Meanwhile with Zhou Wen as he refines the Wither Avatar for his own uses and soon, he had succeeded.
Pash Leon preferred to go by his last name Leon, he was quite the person he had die a few times, so he was good, I guess. In the three cultivation techniques Volcano's branch had they were the Dark Lord, Demon King, and the Master of Puppets.
James was good at martial arts, but he never liked attacking himself, so he wanted puppets to fight for him, Dark Lord was already explained for Zhou Wen in the last chapter, and Demon King focused on unstoppable strength where none could stop you and for a body builder that was what Leon picked.
Soon Leon had finally reached Qi refinement 2 with a majority of players being infinitely close to Qi refinement 2 and had gotten something.
The Demon Body, an evolvable body that took its opponents best part of their bodies and took it for itself while scaling with cultivation, it also gave the user amazing body strength, endurance, and speed.
The only drawback was against holy/light types of magic it took double damage.
[Congrats for obtaining Qi refinement 2, the power of Light comes towards you-]
[-Exterminate it]
"..." Leon did nothing but get up and walk outside
"Where?"
Meanwhile with a person named Juel an inner disciple but more on the low side at Pseudo Foundation building but her true power is at most Qi refinement 8 but has triple of the Qi of a Qi refinement 8.
"Hello," A cultivator with a black mask and clothing sat upon a large boulder.
Leon the Fiend cultivator
"FIEND," Juel's eyes started to narrow as she commanded the ten Qi refinement 4s under her to attack.
Leon did not care as he attacked with power never-ending and ripped apart three, while crushing the head of another.
"COME!" Leon felt the adrenaline run through him as he asked for more.
They obliged as a more than a hundred disciples flooded him when Juel requested backup.
"Let us battle!" Leon said as he walked forward to a hundred enemies.
Meanwhile with Autumn as he tries to find an Herb and Pill master. He was currently in the same place where he would've traded if not for his talent being taken away.
"Sigh."
Soon he found an Herb and Pill master by the name of Jake he was normal without any outstanding features except for one... His loyalty as long as you could prove yourself.
"Hello," Autumn came over to Jake.
"What?" Jake asked.
"Pills? or do you need Herbs?"
"My Sect needs an Herb and Pill master," Autumn said.
"Oh?" Jake smiled.
"Find me a Fire Fruit seed," Jake requested and sadly for him...
"Here," Autumn handed him the seed of the fire fruit.
"..." Jake was outsmarted.
"So?"
"Fine."
Meanwhile we find ourselves with Fey and a woman named Kay a novice Artifact forger as they complain.
"Alright I will join your sect IF you are telling the truth" Kay was arguing about people that would be willingly go on adventures that may kill them.
"Yes, yes I am," Fey refused to back down until she completed her quest.
"Fine."
Again, we find ourselves with Volcano as he treads along a very steep volcanic path with someone behind him named Ya a novice Avatar Master.
"Alright soon we will find the heart of the volcano!" Ya said excitedly.
"Alright how much further?" Volcano asked.
"A few magic meters to the west and then we take a right into a large cavern with lava," Ya instructed.
"Don't you have anything to help me?" Volcano was very tired as he almost fell into lava earlier.
"Hmm... Ah I have just the thing!"
Soon we find ourselves in a field of blood where Leon is severely injured as he fights a somewhat bloody Juel as they battle and hang on for dear life. Around them are the bodies of a hundred disciples dead despite Leo being one man against a hundred or that's what Juel thought.
On the way were both Zhou Wen, the new rising star named Pol after have an epiphany which he broke through into Qi refinement 3 the highest in the server as of now. There were also a few dozen players coming over as well.
"Look! There he is," Someone pointed at the almost dead Leon.
Zhou Wen rushed in and attacked catching the woman off guard and allowing herself to be hit removing a few hours off her lifespan.
"Watch out," Leon said as Zhou Wen was blasted into pieces from Juel's safeguard which all inner/core disciples had which could severely injure a Nascent Soul cultivator.
"Whoops," Leon said as he forgot to say that when they came.
"My bad bro," Leon told Zhou Wen over the call.
"..."
"Alright boys let's do this!" Leon let everyone else just rampage over Juel as she was constantly having to look over her back.
"Fireball!" James in the loudest voice ever and just like an anime fight screamed at the top of his lungs as a fireball hit Juel and allowed a weak spot killing her.
"Let's go!" Everyone cheered as they brought back any type of valuables, they could obtain from the dead woman cultivators.
