Everyone followed Zhao Yuling to the front of the main entrance of the Zhang family household.
Over there, the group of fighters who had previously been scared by Chu He, had returned with backup armies.
Both parties shared their information
They needed to make a conclusion.
The Murong family would also be in trouble if the Zhang family had surrendered to the foreign clan.
So, there was a mysterious senior who noticed the root of the problem, came to that place, and massacred the Zhang family and also all the foreign clans.
“I just went over to have a look. The hill that was blasted by the senior had some bloodstains. I think there was a foreign clan planning an ambush over there. Senior noticed the problem and rescued us!”
There were some people who had returned after heading down the mountain and blurted out this discovery excitedly.
“What? There was such a thing?!”
“I found it weird back then. How could a powerhouse like Senior simply kill innocent people? But that Murong Bo, just one look at him and I know he’s an evil person. Indeed, there’s a problem with him!”
“Thank God we bumped into Senior. Or else, I’m afraid we would have gotten tortured over here.”
The fighters who came to provide aid revealed a terrified look after they had recovered.
From the information of Zhao Yuling’s party, they had already realized that the foreign clan over here had overwhelming abilities. There were lots of Ultimate Precelestials. There were even Ultimate Demi-Kings guarding the place. If they were to be engaged in a fight, perhaps none of them would be able to live through it.
At that moment, they were very grateful for that mysterious senior.
“Mystery senior huh!”
Zhao Yuling grasped the bloody paper in her hand and muttered to herself.
She seemed to have some idea about it.
Thinking back at the weird things in the dungeon, on top of the conclusion from the current info they had, she finally pieced something together.
Those dead guards, the chain on her limbs, and even the sudden feeling of wanting to breakthrough.
‘All these are human doings!’
‘It is all pointing to that senior!’
“Was it Brother Lil Chu?”
Zhao Yuling realized that it might be possible.
However, that senior who appeared had a blurry outline and no one was able to make out his face. So, they could not interpret it accurately.
There were many people suspecting that it might be the hidden elder of the Lin family.
“But, does the Lin family really have a hidden elder?”
Up to that point, Zhao Yuling had long ago been suspicious about that incident.
For so many years being in the book depository, she has never noticed any trails of the mysterious hidden elder.
It was Chu He instead. Following her cultivation that was getting stronger and stronger, she felt that everything made sense.
‘Let’s head over to all places and get rid of the foreign clan. Then, I’ll head back and ask Brother Lil Chu!’
Zhao Yuling silently made up her mind.
She did not reveal the content of the bloody papers to the public.
Firstly, there were lots of people and a high chance that someone would not be able to keep it a secret and blurt it out. If that happened, it would notify the enemy in advance.
Secondly, it was useless to tell these people because they were lacking in terms of abilities.
…
At that moment, Chu He had long ago left Mt. Shaoyan where the Zhang family was located and returned to the book depository.
It was more than 200 kilometers from Mt. Shaoyan to Lin City. Even with the fastest warhorse, or a Precelestial Grandmaster using his full strength of light footsteps to rush through the journey, they would still need about three to four hours.
However, with Chu He’s martial arts cultivation, he need not even use his full strength to make the trip. With just the First Level of the Third Turn, he would only need a few dozen minutes to rush through the journey.
The Third Turn was comparable to the King realm, but there was already a huge difference when compared to the Precelestial Grandmaster fighters.
When he returned to the book depository, it had only been slightly more than four hours since he left.
That was also because of him guarding Zhao Yuling during her breakthrough and him enjoying the scenery during his journey back.
“Hehe!”
When Chu He returned, the little tortoise came greeting him happily on its two little and short legs.
Usually, it felt few emotions as it was always meeting with him daily. However, when Chu He left for a moment, it suddenly felt insecure.
“Only now do I realize that you are such a scaredy-cat, you little thing!”
Chu He found it hilarious.
When he met the little tortoise every day, it had never shown its passion. Day after day, it would become calmer and calmer and sometimes even show disgust when its head was being touched.
Currently, with just a few hours not being able to see him, the little tortoise became utterly anxious.
Indeed, it was true that some distance would lead to nice events.
Chu He picked up the little tortoise and walked into the book depository. He casually picked up a book, sat on the deck chair, and found himself a comfortable position. He stroked the tortoise’s head while flipping through the book.
As for those evil beings outside, he left all of it to the girl.
Currently, she was already a fighter in the King realm. It should not be a problem to her as the highest cultivation she would encounter would be the Demi-Kings of the foreign clan.
It could be used as good training to solidify her cultivation.
Chu He was not worried even if the foreign clan had given him fake news.
In the Xia clan, the highest realm was just the Ultimate Demi-King and if the Mei clan had someone much stronger and abilities that were beyond imagination, they would not have to sneak around and would conduct their plan boldly.
Time passed, free of burden. The night was extremely quiet.
It was stunning!
A month had passed, Chu He kept reading his book, stroking the tortoise’s head, cultivating, and marking the checkpoint.
It was tranquil and carefree.
That day, in the morning.
Chu He was done with his cultivation and underwent the checkpoint as usual.
Very soon, he was done with the checkpoint.
“Ding, congrats to the host for succeeding in marking the checkpoint. You’ve obtained the Golden Manifestation of Buddha’s Form!”
A golden-purple script book appeared in the system.
Chu He let out an astonished look.
That was just the second time a golden-purple-ranked martial arts supernatural material appeared.
The first time it appeared was when he underwent the first checkpoint and he obtained the Golden Nine Turns.
Throughout the years, he had obtained the techniques of martial arts and supernatural materials.
There were a total of seven ranks including white, blue, green, black, red, gold, and golden-purple color.
The white color was the most useless and he was not even bothered to look at it. The golden-purple was the highest rank and was also the rarest.
Regarding the Golden Manifestation of Buddha’s Form, by just looking at its rank, one would know how great it was without mentioning other aspects.
Chu He quickly retrieved it from the system and gave a tap on his forehead.
A vast amount of information appeared within Chu He’s consciousness.
That Golden Manifestation of Buddha’s Form was a technique to cultivate the spirit and it was an offensive supernatural material with extraordinary powers.
The Golden Manifestation of Buddha’s Form may look simple but its effect was extraordinary.
With the spirit, it formed a golden physique. During the process, the spirit would undergo grueling cultivation and at the end of it, it would become very powerful. It could allow the soul to become immortal. Even if his physical body had been blasted to pieces, his soul would remain alive and he would be able to use his soul to recreate a new physique and reincarnate.
Regarding that point, it somehow overlapped with the last stage of the Golden Nine Turns, the cultivation with the soul technique.
However, since the beginning, the Golden Nine Turns targeted cultivating the physique. Hence, it had a very huge difference compared to the Golden Manifestation of Buddha’s Form when it came to strengthening the soul.
The Golden Manifestation of Buddha’s Form would also allow him to leave his physical body and he could even kill his enemies who were a hundred miles, thousand miles, ten thousand miles away, or even further than that.
It was evident that he could cultivate his soul to a very overwhelming state.
Such a caliber of technique would naturally be difficult to cultivate.
Ordinary people would perhaps fail to even initiate it for the rest of their lives.
However, to Chu He, it was not an issue. As long as he was determined to cultivate the techniques in the system, he would be able to start with it, and learning about it would allow him to be halfway down the path of success.
For the days to come, Chu He placed all his attention into cultivating the Golden Manifestation of Buddha’s Form.
He had the advantage with the rank of his cultivation, making the cultivation of the Golden Manifestation of Buddha’s Form proceed smoothly.
It was just 15 days, and he had completed the first level!
On that night, Chu He stood on the rooftop of the book depository.
Following a change of his thought, a golden illusion came out from his body and floated in mid-air.
The lights from the illusion were very very faint. If it was not night time, it was impossible to visualize it.
However, when it showed up, a prestigious and domineering aura spread out, with him being in the core.
In just a split second!
With the book depository as the center, the entire Lin family felt terrified, be it those who were resting or those working hard on cultivating.
Some were in their dreams were let off relatively easily as they would just suddenly lose control over their bowels and micturition. Those who were awake immediately got down to their knees! Some of them could not take it and vomited blood!
Fortunately, Chu He was just doing a minor test. Soon, he pulled back the golden illusion.
The horrifying aura dispersed but the Lin family were doomed to be unable to sleep peacefully that night!
Chu He headed back to the book depository and with a movement of his palm, he took out a tablet from the system to recover his spirit and swallowed it.
That technique was indeed overwhelming, but it took a huge toll on his spirit. With his current level, it would not be much use in a battle.
However, Chu He did not desire to kill. What piqued his interest was that an eternal soul awaited at the end of the cultivation.
Immortal physique!
Immortal soul!
Immortality!
