The Purple Valley Sect, one of the major sects on the Tianwu Continent, was known for its cruelty and feared by many.They also had a large number of members, as they were not selective when recruiting disciples, unlike other sects that had strict standards and requirements to join.However, like other sects, the Purple Valley Sect still categorized their disciples based on talent and cultivation.The Purple Valley Sect had dozens of branch sects, all of which were still bound within the same system as the main sect. Unlike other branch sects that could establish their own rules, these branches remained under strict control. Those with lesser talent were assigned to branch sects, while those with exceptional talent could enter the main sect.And now, within the main sect, atop a mountain with a flattened summit, lay an arena where disciples engaged in battle.At this moment, a fight was taking place between two talented disciples of the Purple Valley Sect—a girl and a man.A large num

After returning to the Immortal Gate Sect, Ye Ning and Fang Yi immediately reported the results of their mission to the mission hall. All of their teammates had been killed in an ambush by members of the Purple Valley Sect, leaving only the two of them alive—but they had managed to kill all of their enemies.They did not report the ruins they had discovered, nor did they provide any information about their encounter with Wang Chen and Chu Yan, honoring the promise they had made to Wang Chen.After completing all the administrative procedures in the mission hall, Fang Yi and Ye Ning left together."Ye Ning, with the strength you can now fully utilize, how strong do you think you’ve become?" Fang Yi asked."If I were to face you while your seal is still unopened, I’m confident I could defeat you," Ye Ning replied confidently."Now I really want to spar with you," Fang Yi said, not doubting her at all."We can do that after we meet Master."They flew across various areas of the sect unti

Chu Yan successfully created his own technique after combining the technique Wang Chen had taught him with his Star Flame through meditation.In his flame form, Chu Yan could fly even though he was still at the Martial King level—something Wang Chen himself had yet to achieve through artifacts that allowed true, perfect flight.After chatting briefly, Wang Chen and Chu Yan headed to the mountain peak where Wang Chen had previously been crafting artifacts.As soon as they landed, Chu Yan deactivated his technique, revealing that he was completely naked—his clothes had been burned away, leaving only a fifth-grade artifact still attached to his arm."Ahaha…" Chu Yan laughed awkwardly. "I already tried to control it, but the Star Flame is just too powerful—especially since I’ve only just mastered this technique.""In that case, wear this!" Wang Chen tossed him a set of clothes."Heheh, thanks." Chu Yan quickly put them on."So, how much do you think your strength has improved?" Wang Chen

Wang Chen was still waiting for the items he had ordered to arrive, casually sipping the warm tea that had been prepared.“Miss Su, regarding the Rune formation formula from before, has there been any progress?” Wang Chen asked, quite curious about it.“Of course there has, though nothing significant. After all, it hasn’t even been a full month since we purchased that formula,” Su Xianlin replied calmly. “Would Young Master be interested in helping us with the research?”“Haha, what could an outer disciple from a sect in a small empire like this possibly contribute to research involving experts?” Wang Chen chuckled softly.“Oh, I thought Young Master was also researching a certain artifact, considering how many materials you’ve been buying.” Su Xianlin made her intentions even clearer.“Not at all. Those are for other purposes.”Wang Chen smiled, and Su Xianlin returned the smile.Soon enough, the items Wang Chen had ordered arrived, brought in by a servant and stored within a spatial

Wang Chen and Chu Yan returned to the Starry Sky Sect. Chu Yan decided to head back to his residence first, while Wang Chen went straight to Xiang Yue’s residence to report and secure his promotion to an inner disciple.On the way, Wang Chen overheard various rumors among the disciples, until he ran into Ju Sing, the same person who had previously been ordered by a subordinate of the Meng Family’s Young Master to trouble him, only to end up being beaten badly.Ju Sing froze upon seeing Wang Chen. Ever since he was utterly defeated, he had developed a trauma toward him. He even had nightmares of being beaten by Wang Chen, a new disciple whose cultivation had once been lower than his.Now, sensing the completely different aura surrounding Wang Chen, Ju Sing realized that he had already reached the Martial King realm.Ju Sing began to tremble. Back then, he had already been defeated so easily. What about now? Once Wang Chen became an inner disciple, he would likely be avoided by others,
