Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation Chapter 1897 Raw 1998 : As You Wish

Chapter 1897 (Raw 1998): As You Wish

As the adage went, one feels restless after prolonged stillness. After more than three months in closed-door cultivation, Xiao Chen’s cultivation had soared greatly, his strength increasing explosively. It was indeed time to go out and take a look.

He also needed to know the latest news going around in the Heavenly Dragon Palace.

“Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+”

Xiao Chen put the throne away. After a few flashes around Cold Moon Cave, he arrived at the courtyard.

Out in the front yard, there was a huge scarlet coc.o.o.n floating quietly in the air and emitting a terrifying demonic aura.

“This silly bird. I have already come out of closed-door cultivation. To think that it is still digesting that Beast Blood Pill. Could its harvest be better than mine?” Xiao Chen muttered to himself as he rubbed his chin.

After thinking about it for a while, he felt that it was really possible. The Demon Blood Vulture’s bloodline had already mutated. If the mysterious energy in the Beast Blood Pill ignited the Demonic Blood Vulture’s bloodline power, then who knew how great the improvements would be?

Xiao Chen waved his hand and placed this scarlet coc.o.o.n in a Spirit Beast Pouch, which was specially used for keeping demonic pets.

Normally, this Demonic Blood Vulture could turn into a scarlet ring. Wearing it on his finger was much more convenient than placing it in the Spirit Beast Pouch.

In fact, Xiao Chen usually did not need the Spirit Beast Pouch at all. Today, he had no choice but to use it.

Xiao Chen had just left the courtyard when he was surprised to discover an inner palace disciple not far away from the entrance. This inner palace disciple sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, cultivating. With one look, it was clear that this disciple had been there for a long time.

“What are you doing?”

That inner palace disciple opened his eyes. When he saw Xiao Chen approaching, he quickly stood up and said respectfully, “Senior Brother Xiao, I am here on orders from the Mission Hall administrator’s orders. I have to inform Senior Brother that inner palace disciples and core disciples need to complete three missions every month. You can put them off temporarily and leave them for the next month. However, the number of missions needed to be completed will increase—”

Xiao Chen interrupted the other party, asking, “How long have you been here?”

He understood. Any sect would have missions.

“I arrived two months ago. However, I tried sending a voice projection, and no one answered, so I waited here. The administrator instructed that if Senior Brother does not reply, you should be in closed-door cultivation, and I should not interrupt but just wait here.

“The disciples that just entered the Heavenly Dragon Palace would always go into closed-door cultivation for a long period. After that, things would return to normal. The administrator specially instructed not to interrupt and disturb Senior Brother’s cultivation.”

This person had already waited for close to three months, but he was not resentful. Instead, he seriously explained everything to Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen nodded slightly and said, “Thank you for your trouble. How many missions have I accrued already?”

“You are too polite. Senior Brother, you have currently accrued ten missions. According to the sect rules, you will have to complete them within one month. Otherwise, you will be punished, as you have not taken on sect missions for three months already.”

“I understand. You may leave first.”

“Yes.”

Xiao Chen thought to himself, Ten missions. With my current cultivation, I should be able to complete them within one month.

After the missions are completed, there should be a reward as well.

This was good timing. Xiao Chen was worried about how to obtain the large amount of resources he would need after entering late-stage Star Venerate. Going on missions was a pretty good solution.

The Heavenly Dragon Palace had many missions. They were issued by the Dragon’s Gate inner sect—that was to say, Ancestor Dragon City.

The difficulty was extremely high, but the rewards were correspondingly lucrative. One could obtain vast numbers of Primeval Heavenly Pills.

Primeval Heavenly Pills, Primeval Heavenly Pills!

Right now, Xiao Chen had a great desire for these Primeval Heavenly Pills. He needed Primeval Heavenly Pills for purchasing things, and his cultivation required Primeval Heavenly Pills. The amount he had was completely insufficient.

Who knew how many Primeval Heavenly Pills he would need after reaching late-stage Star Venerate?

Xiao Chen took out the core disciple ident.i.ty token and sent in some Soul Energy. Then, a map showing the route to the Mission Hall came to mind immediately.

Xiao Chen sped off. After a while, the peak where the Mission Hall stood appeared in the distance. He could see many disciples going up and down the peak.

This peak had a high traffic flow and was exceptionally bustling.

Although the sect required every disciple to complete three missions a month, in reality, many disciples completed more than three.

This was due to the Primeval Heavenly Pills that the sect gave out. The stipend was insufficient in the first place. The disciples needed to find other methods to obtain more.

Just as Xiao Chen was about to go up the peak, he saw a group of core disciples discussing in soft voices.

“Senior Brother Zhang, that group of rich clan disciples that entered the sect three months ago are advancing up the core disciple ranking really quickly.”

“Indeed, most of them are among the top twenty. Now, these people have already started to occupy some mountain summits and nurture their own factions.”

“It can’t be helped. Those people are rich clan disciples. Their strength is extraordinary in the first place. Their talent and bloodline go without saying. After joining the Heavenly Dragon Palace, they are like fish in water. They will definitely improve at a G.o.dly speed. However, they can forget about becoming heaven-cla.s.s core disciples. There are only three spots for heaven-cla.s.s core disciples. Two are decided behind closed doors, and the last one will definitely be Senior Brother Yi.”

The leader of this group spoke frankly with a.s.surance. He obviously had blind confidence in his Senior Brother Yi.

Xiao Chen found this person somewhat familiar. After thinking for a while, he remembered. It’s him!

This was the person by Yi Qianyun’s side, the one who wanted to throw Xiao Chen out because he considered Xiao Chen unqualified to take the test.

In the end, Xiao Chen had sent that person flying with one punch, causing him to suffer greatly.

Three months had pa.s.sed, but this person did not have any growth at all. He was still a bootlicker like before. Xiao Chen walked straight on without any expression, brus.h.i.+ng by this group of people.

“Hold still!”

Xiao Chen had just pa.s.sed them when he heard an angry shout, stopping him.

Did he recognize me? Xiao Chen wondered.

Closely following that was another loud shout, which showed that Xiao Chen’s thoughts were wrong. “Which inner palace disciple is this? To think that you did not even bow and greet when you meet a group of senior brothers. Showing no regard for your superior and lacking any respect, I think you must be tired of living.”

So, it was because of this. This is easy to explain.

That person must have thought that Xiao Chen was an inner palace disciple because of Xiao Chen’s low cultivation.

When inner palace disciples saw core disciples, they needed to greet them respectfully. Xiao Chen went past so many core disciples but ignored them. It did seem somewhat overboard.

However, this was nothing serious, far from something that should be pushed to the extremes.

“Do I need to bow to you?” Xiao Chen said coldly and expressionlessly after he turned around.

“It’s you!”

When this person saw Xiao Chen, he was startled at first. Then, he rejoiced and laughed loudly, “Hahaha! So, it is the famous Junior Brother Xiao Chen. To think that you have the leisure time to come and take missions. Why don’t you go and challenge that Xiao Jinyu, show us how you are going to make Elder Tian Yun regret his decision?”

“He is Xiao Chen? Three months pa.s.sed already. To think that he is still a middle-stage Star Venerate. It looks like Elder Tian Yun made the right judgment back then. He is truly a mixed-blood dragon. His improvements at the late stage will indeed not be comparable to that of a True Dragon.”

“Indeed. I heard that Xiao Jinyu, Fang Tianyi, Qin Yan, and the others are already close to peak early-stage Holy Venerate. They improved at a G.o.dly speed in a mere three months. A mixed-blood dragon bloodline is still too inferior.”

Xiao Chen could not be bothered to argue with these people, so he turned to leave.

“Junior Brother Xiao Chen, why the rush? Although you are a core disciple and do not need to bow to us, we are still your senior brothers. Are you not going to greet us, at least?”

The disciple with the family name Zhang blocked Xiao Chen in a flash, speaking with a smile.

Although this person was smiling, in reality, he was smiling through clenched teeth, hiding a murderous intent.

Clearly, this person still bore a grudge over getting injured by Xiao Chen’s punch that day. He could not let go of it and wanted to use this opportunity to vent his frustration.

However, unless it was the dueling plaza, fighting was prohibited within the sect.

That person with the Zhang family name wanted to anger Xiao Chen into making the first move. That way, he would be reacting in teaching Xiao Chen a lesson. The situation would be very different.

The one breaking the rules would be Xiao Chen and not him, Zhang Yunxuan. Furthermore, Zhang Yunxuan would be able to vent his frustration.

“Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+”

Xiao Chen’s figure flashed three times, but Zhang Yunxuan followed closely, blocking him every time.

“Junior Brother Xiao Chen, I think you should come to this Mission Hall another day.”

Zhang Yunxuan revealed a c.o.c.ky expression. The group of core disciples appeared behind him, completely blocking off the road.

“Come on, obediently address me as Senior Brother. Perhaps I will feel better and forget about the grudge from that day and let you go,” Zhang Yunxuan said while looking at Xiao Chen with a mocking expression.

Zhang Yunxuan stared at Xiao Chen straight in the eye, wanting to provoke him into las.h.i.+ng out.

However, Zhang Yunxuan failed. Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes and maintained a calm expression. From the very start, his expression showed no change.

“Get lost!”

Upon seeing no signs of Xiao Chen getting angry, Zhang Yunxuan could not help becoming frustrated. He reached out, wanting to push Xiao Chen away.

However, Zhang Yunxuan only extended his hand halfway when Xiao Chen grabbed it.

Xiao Chen’s fingers were tough like divine materials. With just some force, Zhang Yunxuan could not move at all, and he let out a shriek.

“You were waiting for this moment, right?” the previously silent Xiao Chen said indifferently, suddenly speaking while looking at Zhang Yunxuan and raising his eyebrows slightly.

Originally, Zhang Yunxuan should be wild with joy after Xiao Chen took the bait. However, when he looked at Xiao Chen’s eyes, fear appeared in his heart for some reason.

“As you wish, then.”

Xiao Chen yanked Zhang Yunxuan’s arm, making him fall towards the ground like a sandbag.

“Rumble…!”

A huge crack immediately opened in the ground as the entire foot of the mountain trembled slightly.

When the core disciples with Zhang Yunxuan saw this scene, they paled in shock.

Then, they soared into the air, flying towards Xiao Chen. They shouted, “Quickly let go of Senior Brother Zhang. You have already broken the sect rules.”

Many people traveled in and out of the Mission Hall. When they saw this scene, they were greatly startled.

Previously, many people had noticed Zhang Yunxuan’s group blocking Xiao Chen.

They thought that Xiao Chen would fall into the trap, forced to attack. Then, this group of people would teach him a lesson. After suffering greatly, he would learn his lesson.

However, no one expected that Xiao Chen would grab Zhang Yunxuan with one move and pull him, sending him cras.h.i.+ng into the ground.

This was somewhat too ruthless, stupefying everyone.
