Chapter 9: Are You Begging Me to Hit You?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Are you begging me to hit you?” Jiang Chen said softly.

Then, a faint blue light flashed across his eyes. He looked at Zhang Long and smiled.

Wave after wave of invisible energy was transmitted towards Zhang Long, who was completely unaware of it.

“Although I don’t know if your brain has been kicked by a donkey. But as a friend, if I don’t satisfy your request, wouldn’t that be rude of me? After all, I’ve never thought that you actually had such special interests.”

“Hit me if you dare. Otherwise, get lost. As long as I’m here, whether today, tomorrow, or any other time, you definitely won’t be able to enter.” Zhang Long had a look that said, “You definitely wouldn’t dare to hit me.” He started teasing Jiang Chen arrogantly.

“As you wish!” As he said the words indifferently, Jiang Chen casually punched out.

Bang!

Under Zhang Long’s astonished gaze, Jiang Chen’s fist grew larger and larger. Zhang Long didn’t even have time to react before he was punched in the face.

The huge force threw Zhang Long to the ground, and he rolled backward until he hit the wall.

Zhang Long felt pain all over his body, and his bones felt like they were about to break.

However, he was smiling. He was smiling from the bottom of his heart.

“Ah, Jiang Chen! How dare you hit me?! You’re finished! The sect has rules against fighting privately. You’ll be whipped a hundred times. Haha, Jiang Chen, you’re finished!”

In the Skyfire Sect, disciples were forbidden from fighting in private. Those who violated the rules were punished regardless of right or wrong.

Zhang Long’s words had provoked Jiang Chen. Zhang Long had originally wanted to ridicule him and get a kick out of it. He hadn’t expected Jiang Chen to really attack him.

Although Zhang Long was in pain, he was elated when he thought of Jiang Chen breaking the sect rules and about to be punished.

After the punishment, Jiang Chen would either die or be crippled!

Jiang Chen sneered and said, “Is that so? Yeah, you’re right. I did hit you. But what’s the use of trash who doesn’t even dare to fight back?”

Then, without even looking at the paralyzed Zhang Long, he walked past him and headed towards the Scripture Holding Depository’s courtyard.

When Zhang Long saw Jiang Chen walk past him, his mind went into overdrive. He didn’t know why, but his body that was in so much pain just now suddenly recovered.

Zhang Long’s expression was crazed, and even his eyes had turned red.

“Stop! Stop right there!” As he spoke, he suddenly reached out and grabbed the figure in front of him. He succeeded in grabbing the other party’s sleeve.

But why did the clothes feel wrong? Why did it feel so delicate?

Zhang Long had a bad feeling. He lowered his head and looked at the sleeve in his hand. A bright blue color appeared.

Blue!

How could it be blue?

Only inner sect disciples of the Skyfire Sect could wear blue!

“Ah! Pervert!”

Zhang Long was just about to let go when he felt a strong force coming at him. It was as though he had been hit by a bull head-on and was sent flying.

In midair, Zhang Long saw that the person he had just grabbed was actually an inner sect female disciple dressed in blue.

That female disciple was currently glaring at him with embarrassment and anger.

Bang!

Zhang Long landed on the ground and couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

He did not even feel the pain in his body as his mind kept thinking, how could it be, how could it be wrong?

There was chaos behind him. Very quickly, law-enforcement disciples dragged the severely injured Zhang Long away.

“Illusionary Demon Eyes, the effects aren’t too bad. Without a cultivation at the Divine Sea realm or higher, it would be impossible to discover any abnormalities on Zhang Long’s body. Even if they do, there’s a high chance that they will only think that Zhang Long was suffering from fire poison.”

There was no need for Jiang Chen to see what was happening behind him. His divine consciousness could sense everything clearly.

Actually, he had used the Illusionary Demon Eyes from the very beginning. This illusion technique he had obtained from the Demon Subduing Prison had caused Zhang Long to fall into the illusion he had created.

Jiang Chen didn’t even physically attack Zhang Long. It had just been an illusion.

In the end, Jiang Chen even used his illusion technique to guide Zhang Long into mistaking that inner sect female disciple as him.

Naturally, it caused that tragedy to occur.

A labor disciple actually dared to be rude to an inner sect disciple. He deserved no less than to be beaten to death.

Arriving at the courtyard, there were disciples dressed in various colors walking back and forth.

As soon as Jiang Chen entered, he used his divine consciousness to scan the mountain he was in. The defense here was greater than he had imagined.

However, so long as he didn’t enter the hall, then naturally, no one would pay too much attention to a labor disciple like him.

Jiang Chen approached the Dao Comprehension Monument in the middle of the courtyard. He stopped a hundred feet away from it and mingled with a few servants who were sweeping the area.

It was not that he did not want to move forward but that the area in front of him was already filled with disciples who were busy with their own Dao comprehension.

This black boulder had been erected here by True Lord Skyfire, the first generation ancestor of the Skyfire Sect. It was rumored that one of the Sect’s three major divine-grade cultivation techniques, the Burning Heaven Art, was sealed inside.

This technique did not have any words or scriptures and could only be comprehended through the stone monument.

Unfortunately, in the past thousands of years, only three generations of ancestors had comprehended the Burning Heaven Art from it. No matter how talented the other disciples were, no one had been able to comprehend it since then.

The Dao Comprehension Monument and the Burning Heaven Art gradually became a legend in the sect.

Of course, there were always many people in this world who believed that they were geniuses, children of destiny. What if they happened to be the one to be able to comprehend it? That was why there were many people who came here to try their luck every day.

Jiang Chen also tried to sense it with his divine consciousness, but unfortunately, he didn’t sense anything. Clearly, he wasn’t the fated person.

“System, sign in here!”

[Congratulations to Host for signing in successfully. You have obtained a profound-grade cultivation technique, “Great Sun Technique”.]

“A profound-grade cultivation technique? The Great Sun Technique?”

Jiang Chen started thinking. He didn’t end up getting the divine-grade cultivation technique he had wanted the most, the Burning Heaven Art. It was also not the Red Purple Sunset Extreme Technique, nor was it the Multi-directional Golden Flames. Instead, it was merely a profound-grade cultivation technique.

Despite Jiang Chen’s initial feelings, he was able to shake off his disappointment quite quickly. He thought that as long as he signed in a few more times in the future, he would definitely obtain a higher-level cultivation technique.

If anyone were to find out that Jiang Chen was actually not very fond of this “low-level” profound-grade cultivation technique, they would be driven to their graves by anger.

In the cultivation world, there were countless people who would fight to the death for even a yellow-grade cultivation technique, not to mention a profound-grade one that could be cultivated to the limits of the Divine Sea realm. If such a thing appeared in the world, it would always cause a storm of blood.

Even the Skyfire Sect, one of the Ten Major Sects, only had twenty-some profound-grade cultivation techniques after existing for thousands of years.

If an ordinary inner sect disciple wanted to cultivate, he would have to use a large amount of contribution points to exchange for a cultivation technique.

Since Jiang Chen had already obtained a cultivation technique, he didn’t intend to stay here any longer. He turned around and left, to return to the cave in the Magma Domain where he was in seclusion to make a breakthrough.

In the depths of the Magma Domain, under a small mountain.

The moment Jiang Chen entered the cave, he immediately retrieved the Great Sun Technique.

After having it instilled by the system, he was able to immediately master the first level of this technique. Furthermore, he also understood all its key points and essence.

As long as he had enough time, this cultivation technique would be mastered very quickly!
