Divine Talent Born Mortal 177 Sword Sect 1

Even though Elder Du was so powerful he did not know that Zhang Yi cultivated body refinement and mental energy on the ninth level and cultivated qi in the soul birth realm, so the elder thought that Zhang Yi was a genius who was at the beginning of the soul birth realm only.

At the soul birth realm the warriors cultivated divided by levels, it was nine levels until they reached the soul refinement realm and on each level, there were three layers which were the initial, intermediate and advanced layers, it was similar to the realm of mortal tribulation only then with two more levels.

This is why it was so much harder for higher-realm cultivators to advance and fight higher-level or even higher-tier warriors, from the third to the fourth level was the initial to intermediate realm difference and from level 6 to level 7. it was from intermediate to advanced level.

These were the most difficult bottlenecks in this realm and what set warriors apart on the same level, so Elder Du would give Zhang Yi a harder mission with two soul-birth realm warriors at level 5, so he would be the weakest of the group and would be safer.

The mission he would have was to investigate the death of two soul-birth realm warriors at level 3, it was in the sect territory and this mission should be for soul-birth realm warriors at level 5 at least, knowing this Zhang Yi At least Elder Du did not underestimate him very much.

"To go on this mission with you, I will send one of my descendants who is at level 5 of the soul birth realm named Du Chen and another peer named Li Tang."

Elder Du did not send a relative of his to approach Zhang Yi but because his relative was very talented and had learned some things from himself, so he had confidence that he could protect Zhang Yi if necessary.

The other disciple was also talented and always did missions like this to get more cultivation resources and get more merit to go to the best territories of the sect, which would be two good people to accompany Zhang Yi.

Even though the two strongest leaders of this group and mission would be Zhang Yi, after all, Elder Du was just doing it because Zhang Yi had asked, the other two would not be happy about it, but would have to accept orders from the sect.

Zhang Yi was happy to be the leader of the group because he was the strongest of the group and with his mental energy such investigative missions were easy for him, Du Chen was repeatedly reminded by the elder to help as much as he could Zhang Yi on this mission.

Elder Du knew that Du Chen was jealous of Zhang Yi, after all before Zhang Yi arrived Du Chen who was the sect's greatest genius, he reached the realm of soul birth at a very young age in the lower territories and so when reaching the realm of soul refinement would probably go to the stronger territories of the sect.

On the other hand, Li Tang wanted to help Zhang Yi as much as possible to be friends with him and perhaps be recommended to go to the stronger cult territory when Zhang Yi got there, after all, they knew that Zhang Yi would reach the realm of soul refinement faster than all of them.

Zhang Yi took the spirit rank sword he had not used for a long time and saw that his weapon was the same as everyone in the soul birth realm used, king rank weapons were not so common for disciples to use.

Zhang Yi had personally strengthened this sword so he was confident in it, the next morning the three met at the entrance of the sect, even though the three were very different ages the three were considered geniuses who reached the realm of the core revolution very early and by they looked very young.

For soul-birth realm warriors who could live to 70,000 years quietly was not even worth mentioning, the ages between people in this realm only really served to show their talent.

"I asked for this mission and that's why I was a.s.signed as a leader, but I will try to hear your opinion to the full, I don't know the location very well, so it will be one of you who will have to guide our group in this investigation."

"I don't mind guiding the group, I've done several missions in this area and I know everything very well."

"So thank you, Miss Li, so let's go over the details of this mission, two unknown warriors were murdered within the territory of our sect, we have to investigate who the killer is and why."

"The two who were killed fought before they died, so the sect deduced that the killers must be only slightly stronger than the level 3 soul birth realm warriors, it may be just one or more than one killer."

Zhang Yi was a little excited because it was the first mission he would do for a sect he was partic.i.p.ating with fellow sects, in the Iron sect he tried to do a mission with Bai Cheng and couldn't even complete before ending up in the world hope he got several years there.

Zhang Yi went with fellow cults to the place where the two soul-birth realm warriors were killed, Zhang Yi arrived and saw that the two warriors who were killed were still at the scene.

Zhang Yi could not use the soul searching technique because besides showing that he was a mental energy cultivator he could not seek the soul of someone who died so long ago.

But as a mental energy cultivator, Zhang Yi had various means to search the site for a killer clue, while the other two Sword Sect comrades asked locals Zhang Yi for clues.

Not long after Zhang Yi had discovered that they had 7 killers, contrary to what everyone expected was a very large group, only 4 of the group attacked, and so fighting back both warriors ended up dying quickly.

From the way the two had been killed it seemed that the 7 wanted to hide that they were a group and wanted to look like one or two people attacked, Zhang Yi deduced that the strongest in this group were in the 4th level soul birth realm.

Upon discovering this Zhang Yi began to deduce where this group fled, he realized that they did not stay in the same crime scene and could have left Sword Sect territory, but he would have to follow the trail he was seeing.
