Chapter 186: Waves of Wind and Clouds

出現一些金色的靈紋。四周的靈氣湧入地圖裡麵，金光閃閃，看得沈翔目瞪口呆。“這李天俊果然是一個奇人，連地圖都製造得這麼神奇。”沈翔驚歎了一聲。而那地圖此時已經變成了金色，在上麵繪製著這第一玄境的簡單路線圖，而其中一個標著紅點的地方。沈翔猜測那就是靈藥所在的地方。“這玄境還真大呀，竟然比王者大陸還大！”沈翔看著地圖。推測著這個玄境的大小。他現在所在的地方就是玄境的邊緣，雖然他走了大半天但還隻是邊緣。而...Chapter 186: Rising Storms

Schen glided gracefully with his large yet agile Vermillion Bird Fire Wing, flying away from the Abyss of Despair and landing on the ground. He basked in the warm sunlight, having been there for three months. The days of no light had made him very uncomfortable.

He gazed at the five beastly statues inside his dantian, all lit up with fifteen beads each. This was the even distribution achieved under his control, displaying uniformed Supreme Qi through all five statues. He felt a world of difference in power now that he was at the second level of True Martial Realm,有信心 to challenge a third-level martial artist unarmed.

"Lu Family, I'll see how I can deal with you! I'll make you pay the price of blood!" Schen clenched his fists tightly and roared, causing the ground to tremble. Cracks spread outwards in all directions, startling birds roosting in the forest as they flew into the air. The forest echoed with the howls of wild beasts.

Schen flew high, now capable of using his Vermillion Bird Fire Wing in a smaller form that allowed him to fly faster and more powerfully, albeit at the cost of more energy expenditure. Despite using a slightly smaller wing than usual, his speed had increased tenfold compared to before. The brilliance emitted from the wings was different too; previously, it was a fiery red, but now it resembled blinding sunlight, making him look like a god flying from the sun!

Three months had passed since he wreaked havoc within the玄武玄域, causing a stir amongst several factions. The Beast Martial Sect, True Martial Sect, and Immortal Dao Sea had all faced trouble from him, but Schen's whereabouts remained unknown. The Taichi Martial Sect refused to give him up or punish him, standing firm in their stance.

Despite the prohibition of using Supreme Qi within the玄武玄域, Schen managed to eliminate dozens of True Martial Realms. Several of them even reached the Extreme Realm, all eliminated in one go! This news initially seemed unbelievable but was eventually accepted as reality by many people over time.

What amazed everyone even more was that Schen didn't spare his fellow sect members, but he received support for his actions. Then, the Beast Martial Sect and True Martial Sect faced a significant decrease in their ranks of True Martial Realms due to Schen's actions.

As word spread, the Immortal Dao Sea gradually surfaced as a major force located in the outer sea of the Chenwu Continent. No one knew its true nature, but rumors suggested that it was on par with the Taichi Martial Sect as a super sect.

With Schen being absent, the Beast Martial Sect, True Martial Sect, and Immortal Dao Sea could do little against Taichi Martial Sect. The fights between disciples from these sects were only personal matters, not targeting the sects themselves.

There was an even more shocking secret: Schen killed several涅槃 Realm individuals from multiple sects, including the head of the Beast Martial Sect. Few people knew about this and would not disclose it as it benefited no one, potentially increasing tensions among the sects. Should chaos reign on the Chenwu Continent and those sects' powerful members clash, the Five Demon Gates would profit from their strife.

The massive square within the Taichi Martial Sect was filled with disciples, creating a solemn atmosphere. Gu Dongchen, Dan Elders, and Wu Kaiming stood at the podium, but it was mostly filled with elders and old ladies that few disciples had seen before. At the back of these seniors stood a group of young men and middle-aged gentlemen, all displaying a stern demeanor that radiated power. This was a group of people that few disciples had seen before.

This was indeed a gathering of rarely seen disciples and higher-ups, including Elders from the Elders Council, as well as the number one to ten Taichi Martial Academy instructors. These were all core forces within the Taichi Martial Sect.

A great announcement was about to be made. Ever since the events in the玄武玄域, the Taichi Martial Sect was on edge due to killing not only the head of the Beast Martial Sect but also several涅槃 Realms from the Beast Martial Sect, True Martial Sect, and Immortal Dao Sea. This was a rare event within the last ten thousand years.

However, this only further instilled fear in other factions and individuals towards the Taichi Martial Sect due to their ruthless killings. Notably, they all believed that it was solely Schen who caused all this chaos.

"Everyone should know what's been happening recently! A thousand years ago, the Taichi Martial Sect faced a similar crisis and managed to overcome it easily! This time around, we can definitely handle it. I know everyone is uneasy and fears retaliation from other factions." Gu Dongchen boomed, his voice echoing throughout the Taichi Martial Sect.

Gu Dongchen paused for a moment before continuing, "I've gathered everyone here today to announce two things. Firstly, the Taichi Martial Sect will not fear retaliation from other factions. If they dare to kill one of our disciples, I'll make them pay with a hundred lives! I Gu Dongchen will follow through!"

Heads of disciples lowered their heads in relief, knowing that the head was speaking. Understanding the gravity of his words.

"Secondly, there are new rules for the Taichi Martial Academy starting today. There will only be fifty academies from now on, divided into fifteen Internal Academies and thirty-five External Academies. The fifteen Internal Academies and the thirty-five External Academies will be managed by groups of disciples with equal strength at the True Martial Realm, responsible for teaching martial arts. This is to strengthen the overall quality of the inner academy, and I expect everyone's best efforts! We will hold examinations every six months. If you fail to meet the standards, we'll send you to the Hell Academy for training!" Gu Dongchen's voice was cold and chilling, causing many others to shiver.

"Hell Academy, what kind of place is this"

The Dan Elders cleared their throats, quieting the chaotic square.

"From now on, benefits won't be fixed. If you want medicine pills, you'll have to earn them! I've noticed some individuals who rarely participate in training and tasks but still receive generous benefits. Starting today, you'll need to prove your strength and potential by earning them yourselves. Specific rules will be conveyed through the instructors of your respective academies."

Wu Kaiming spoke with a stern expression, "From today onwards, you must increase your pace. Competition will be more intense, and rewards will be more substantial. We need to cultivate outstanding disciples! Over the next days, we'll organize various martial competitions to promote competition and enhance communication among you."

The Taichi Martial Sect's sudden major reform left the disciples puzzled, wondering if they were preparing for future faction wars.

"Dismissed!" Gu Dongchen's voice echoed, his eyes narrowing as he looked at the giant fiery wings in mid-air. These were Schen's wings, but they were larger than before and emitted a dazzling light reminiscent of the sun.

The Dan Elders and Wu Kaiming quickly noticed, releasing a breath of relief but still in awe. Schen had returned from the Abyss of Despair, and judging by his wings, his strength must have increased significantly!

A burst of intense heat enveloped everyone as they looked up, seeing the dazzling fiery wings emitting a bright light. Although the wings were larger than before, many could recognize it as Schen's Supreme Qi fire wings!

Schen had been missing for three months, finally returning!tle Lychee."If I use you to exchange it, will your palace master give it to me" Shen Xiang smiled."I don't know!" Little Lychee shook her head. "My palace master treats me very well, but that seed is...
