Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: Beauty Backstabbing

Great Flame Dynasty, Desolate Sky City.

Outside the city, in the forbidden wilderness above the Myriad Demon Cavern.

This place, although not explicitly forbidden by the Great Flame Dynasty, was well-known among the people as perilous—a chaotic burial ground left from ancient wars, filled with an extremely dense yin energy.

Ordinary people would find it difficult to breathe after spending just a short while here.

Although martial artists had stronger physical bodies than the average person, prolonged exposure would cause the yin energy to invade their bodies, leading to chronic ailments.

Therefore, scarcely anyone would come to this place.

However, at this moment, a tall woman in a white dress stood resolutely beneath a dead tree outside the Myriad Demon Cavern.

The invisible yin energy around her didn't seem to be repelled by her body, and there were even signs of it trying to penetrate her.

Her purple hair draped behind her, and her beautiful visage stared intently into the distance.

It seemed she was waiting for someone.

Whoosh whoosh—

From afar, through the mountains and forests, a man dressed in black moved swiftly, rapidly weaving through the trees.

It didn't take long before he appeared in front of the beautiful woman.

"Brother Chen, I thought you had forgotten our appointment and weren't coming today," the woman with purple hair and white dress said with a smile emerging on her face, pouting her cherry lips with a light huff.

The man in black smiled, walked up to her, and placed his hands on her slender waist.

Then he lifted his hand and gently rubbed her nose with his finger.

"It's been three years. Have I ever missed an appointment?" the man said indifferently, as the surrounding yin energy drew closer, but failed to get within half an inch of his body.

The man was named Lin Chen, the son of the Patriarch of the Lin Family from Desolate Sky City of the Great Flame Dynasty.

The Lin Family passed down their lineage exclusively, specializing in the Blazing Fire Technique.

And Lin Chen, with his Extreme Yang Body, doubled the efficacy of his practice in the Blazing Fire Technique.

At the age of ten, he had already formed a cyclone within his body and broken through to the Spirit Gathering Realm from the Body Tempering Realm, becoming the youngest Heavenly Pride of both the Lin Family and the entirety of Desolate Sky City.

By the age of thirteen, he had even surpassed some of the elders in his clan.

However, three years ago, Lin Chen's cultivation suddenly regressed, eventually falling back to the Third Layer of the Body Tempering Realm.

This caused Lin Chen's status in the Lin Family to plummet.

Some elders even proposed to strip Lin Chen of his status as the Princely Heir.

Fortunately, Lin Chen had a supportive father, and as long as his father held the position of the Patriarch, the clan members couldn't dismiss Lin Chen's status as the Princely Heir.

However, the family's whisperings and gossip about Lin Chen increased.

Many servants were calling him a waste behind his back.

Yet, Lin Chen didn't care.

Because he knew the reason behind the regression of his cultivation over these three years.

It was to help Mu Qingxue, the woman in front of him, with her Channel Opening and Meridian Expanding.

The Mu Family, like the Lin Family, was one of the Five Great Families of Desolate Sky City.

Mu Qingxue was the legitimate daughter of Mu Taishan, the family head of the Mu Family.

Three years ago, the two met by chance and gradually developed feelings for each other.

At that time, Lin Chen discovered that Mu Qingxue's physique was the Sealed Meridians Extreme Cold Body, and it was recorded in the books that those with this body constitution would endure the agony of ice invading their bodies during cultivation, with few able to persist and break through to the Spirit Gathering Realm from the Body Refining Realm.

However, once the cultivation reached the Spirit Gathering Realm, the speed of cultivation would increase tremendously, with limitless potential.

The method to resolve this extreme cold physique was not recorded in the books.

However, Lin Chen accidentally discovered that his Extreme Yang Body could actually help Mu Qingxue in her cultivation.

So, for these three years, he had been using his own Spiritual Power to periodically carry out Channel Opening and Meridian Expanding for Mu Qingxue.

And today, he would clear the last meridian in Mu Qingxue's body.

"Qingxue, after today you will be able to fully control your extreme cold physique. Your cultivation speed will inevitably be extremely fast from now on, and you will be a genius," Lin Chen said as he touched Mu Qingxue's hair, genuinely happy for her.

"I have to thank Brother Chen for this. Over these three years, every time you helped me expand my channels and meridians, you had to endure the pain of extreme cold invading your body, and also bear the humiliation from people. You have suffered," Mu Qingxue said, nestling into Lin Chen's embrace, looking like a little bird relying on others, with her eyes slightly reddening.

"For you, all of this is worth it."

Lin Chen smiled faintly.

Then, he led Mu Qingxue behind a large tree.

"Once you break through the last meridian, you will completely get rid of your Sealed Meridians. Let's begin."

As he finished speaking, both of them sat down cross-legged.

Lin Chen circulated the not-so-abundant Extreme Yang Force within him, a pale yellow Spiritual Light faintly emerged as he placed his hands on Mu Qingxue's back and then assisted her in breaking through the last of the Sealed Meridians inside her body.

"Concentrate your spirit and calm your Qi, and push through in one go."

Lin Chen reminded Mu Qingxue.

Mu Qingxue did as instructed, and a strong burst of icy air suddenly erupted from her body.

Lin Chen's hands were directly shaken off.

"That's great, the last Sealed Meridian has been broken through."

"Qingxue, you've succeeded."

Lin Chen looked at Mu Qingxue with joy.

However, Mu Qingxue's demeanor had changed from her previous obedience. Her expression turned cold in an instant.

"Yes, I have finally succeeded. From today onwards, I, Mu Qingxue, am a Spirit Gathering Realm powerhouse,"

"And my future cultivation will be smooth and unobstructed. My strength will surely soar."

"And you, a mere Third Layer of Body Tempering Realm trash, do you think you're still worthy to stand by my side?"

Mu Qingxue looked at Lin Chen with a cold expression, her eyes flashing with disdain.

"Qingxue, how can you say such a thing?"

Lin Chen asked incredulously.

Just then, there was movement in the woods, and a figure emerged.

"A match made in heaven? Maybe in the next life."

"You, a Body Tempering Realm waste, what right do you have to stay by Qingxue's side?"

"In a few days comes the Jade Cauldron Sect's recruitment day. You, a mere Body Tempering Realm cultivator, do you really think you can accompany Qingxue to participate?"

From behind the trees, a man in white clothes walked out, his mocking gaze fixated on Lin Chen, then he walked up to Mu Qingxue, wrapping his arm around her slender waist.

Mu Qingxue did not dodge or evade, and even looked affectionate.

The man in white was someone Lin Chen knew; he was Li Chu, the direct son of the Li Family, one of the Five Great Families in Desolate Sky City.

"You, you all..."

"Bitch!"

"You pair of treacherous lovers!"

Lin Chen finally understood the situation.

Mu Qingxue was burning her bridges, deeming Lin Chen's cultivation too low to accompany her to the great competition at the Jade Cauldron Sect in a few days, so she had cozied up to Li Chu who was at the Seventh Layer of Spirit Gathering Realm.

Lin Chen clenched his jaw tightly, his fist clenched, his face red with rage, and his heart filled with endless fury.

"I'll kill you both!"

Lin Chen could not bear such humiliation, determined to kill the treacherous couple before his eyes.

However, how could Lin Chen, whose cultivation had fallen and had just expended almost all of his limited Spiritual Power helping Mu Qingxue in expanding her meridians, be a match for two Spirit Gathering Realm cultivators?

Li Chu's figure moved swiftly behind Lin Chen, and with one palm strike, he hit Lin Chen's back hard.

With nearly a thousand pounds of force, Lin Chen's body sank abruptly, and he was thrown forward.

"Pu!"

Fresh blood spurted from Lin Chen's mouth.

"This waste, shall we kill him outright?"

After Li Chu sent Lin Chen flying with a palm, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes as he turned to Mu Qingxue to ask.

"No, they say that those who enter the Myriad Demon Cavern have a slim chance of survival, and even those who come out alive end up insane. Don't you want to see what he looks like mad?"

A vicious smile appeared on Mu Qingxue's face.

Hearing this, Li Chu nodded and kicked Lin Chen into the Myriad Demon Cavern.

Inside the Myriad Demon Cavern, the cold wind howled tearingly, as if billions of souls were screaming and wailing.

When Lin Chen fell into the Myriad Demon Cavern, suddenly a three-legged Golden Cauldron within the pitch-black cavern emitted a pale yellow light and entered Lin Chen's brow.

In that instant, Lin Chen's Extreme Yang Body seemed to stir slightly.
