Grave dirt blanketed the earth.
Black blood flowed from some unfathomably distant place, soaking patches of the grave dirt.
Chu Yun had tried approaching the dark brown bloodstains on the dirt before, but just getting slightly close enveloped him in an indescribable sense of terror.
Even the glowing layer of white light protecting him had begun to tremble and waver.
"This blood has long dried up, yet I can't even get near it,

Inside the bedroom.Chu Yun carefully examined the Gilded Jade Physique Art manual resting on the table.The content of the Gilded Jade Physique Art was divided into two main sections. The first was the breathing and exhalation technique, which required a rhythm of three long breaths followed by one short breath. The closer the interval between each breath was to perfect mathematical precision, the better.The second section was the physical stances. Like all other martial arts cultivation methods, the goal was to use these stances in conjunction with the breathing technique to align oneself with heaven and earth, becoming one with nature. In this state, spiritual energy would naturally enter the body with each breath and circulate within.There was also a supplementary section detailing various medicinal baths and prescriptions. These materials were meant to accelerate the body-tempering process. As a concubine-born son of Duke Sovereign's Estate, Chu Yu

As she spoke.Chu Yao didn't give him a chance to object, dragging Chu Yun straight into the Martial Sanctum.Every Martial Cultivator they encountered along the way, regardless of age or grade, smiled and bowed to Chu Yao, and consequently, to Chu Yun as well.Chu Yun knew her personality. Though he shook his head helplessly on the inside, he let her drag him along.Soon.The two of them arrived in front of a row of low-slung buildings at the very back of the Martial Sanctum.An elderly man with a head of white hair and a white beard was resting on a reclining chair in front of the buildings. Despite his advanced age and frail appearance, the Crimson Vigor contained within his body was no less than that of a Fifth Tier!This elder had once been a Guest Expert of Duke Sovereign's Estate, a powerful Fourth Tier "Mortal-Transcendent." However, having never managed to glimpse the realm of a Third Tier Grandmaster, his Crimson Vigor had e

The Eastern Ward.Under the osmanthus tree.The snow had already been swept clear. Several young menservants were gathered together, chatting idly."I heard that the Shifting Sands Syndicate and the Gilded Tide Syndicate on Five Steeds Alley had a turf war last night. Dozens of people died. It was so bad the Constables of the Five Wards were alarmed and had to send people over in the middle of the night to suppress it.""Yeah, I heard about that too. Word is, someone working under the head of the Shifting Sands Syndicate slept with his favorite concubine. When they got found out, the guy took a few others and defected to the Gilded Tide Syndicate. Tsk tsk."As the menservants gossiped, maids and servant girls occasionally passed by.Little Yan approached from another direction. As she walked past, she caught snippets of their conversation. Uninterested, she didn't stop to listen and continued walking.But just then, she heard someone

Morning.Chu Yun opened his eyes, changed his clothes, and stepped out of his room.Another heavy snow had fallen overnight, blanketing the entirety of Duke Sovereign's Estate in white. Stepping out into the courtyard, he saw many servants bustling about with brooms, sweeping the snow.A freezing gust of wind blew past, piercing right through his padded cotton coat and bringing waves of biting chill."It seems I do need to practice martial arts after all."Chu Yun rubbed his hands together and exhaled a puff of white mist.A Mystic Master possessed the ability to project their soul and roam the heavens and earth, but their physical body was ultimately mortal flesh and blood. Although he could use his Spirit power to slightly ward off the severe cold, it wasn't a long-term solution.A Martial Cultivator, on the other hand, only needed to reach the Ninth Tier to gain a resistance to heat and cold that far surpassed ordinary people. Even

In the West Courtyard.Chu Heng, his face a stormy mask of fury, strode into the courtyard with the powerful, measured steps of a tiger. Seeing him approach, the maids and servants along the way quickly bowed their heads in respectful silence. No one dared to utter a single word, all feeling the suffocating pressure radiating from him.Bang!Chu Heng violently shoved open the door to the inner chamber.Inside the bedroom, Madam Lin was reclining on a lounger. Two maids stood on either side of her, carefully applying ice packs to her face. Both of her cheeks were still red and heavily swollen.The sudden, violent opening of the door startled both maids. They dropped the ice packs onto the floor and hurriedly dropped to their knees, bowing low to Chu Heng in trembling fear."M-Master..."The commotion also startled Madam Lin. Opening her eyes and seeing Chu Heng walk in, tears instantly welled up. She stood up and cried, "Look at my fac

A ghostly mist shrouded the sky.Grave dirt blanketed the earth.Black blood flowed from some unfathomably distant place, soaking patches of the grave dirt.Chu Yun had tried approaching the dark brown bloodstains on the dirt before, but just getting slightly close enveloped him in an indescribable sense of terror.Even the glowing layer of white light protecting him had begun to tremble and waver."This blood has long dried up, yet I can't even get near it, and that's *with* the system's protection... Even the blood of a First Tier Martial Saint couldn't possibly be this terrifying."Chu Yun murmured inwardly.When he first arrived, forget getting close—just looking at the blood sent shivers down his spine. While he could now look at it directly, he still couldn't approach it.The black blood and the black mist were the two most terrifying things he had encountered in the Nether Realm. If not for the glowing white light
