The battle between Xiao Dan and Jia Hao had been ongoing for a while without a clear winner.
"Xiao Dan, if this is all you've got then forget about winning!"
"Who said I was giving it my all, let me show you my true capabilities!" said Xiao Dan as he took out two black sabers andvered them with his red energy, his entire demeanour changed to a more violent and blood thirty kind, his eyes turned slightly red.
[Saber Arts: Asura's Wrath!]
A thin red horizontal line was drawn in the air as Xiao Dan appeared behind Jia Hao with the sabers already returned to where he'd hidden them before.
"You..." that's all Jia Hao managed to say before he died, there were two cross shaped deep cuts on his chest that cut through his lungs and heart, chances of survival were zero.
[Inner disciple Xiao Dan is now ranked hundredth and all of Jia Hao's possessions are all his including his private cultivation mountain.] sounded an elderly voice. Disciples came and took Jia Hao'srpse away, leaving his token behind.
"Elder, I'd also like to challenge a Ranked disciple."
"The number one Inner disciple, that's who I want to challenge."
[Su Long, you've been challenged, if you don't arrive here within thirty minutes, it will be taken as you admitting defeat and your rank will be revoked.] the elderly voice was loud enough for every disciple in the sect to hear him.
"WHO DARES!" a powerful voice sounded from afar as a red cloud was fast approaching. In a blink of an eye, the red cloud had reached the Mission Hall and was absorbed into the man's body. This man had crimson hair and eyes, a malevolent aura around him and carried a heavy sword on his back, it was the first ranked disciple, Su Long.
Su Long didn't waste time and jumped straight to the stage and stood in front of Zixin with a gloomy aura.
"You only got one move, after that, I'm gonna torture you before taking your pathetic life."
"Are you threatening me?"
"Take it however you want, I don't care." said Su Long dismissively.
[Begin!] sounded the elder's voice. He didn't care if they were too close to one another or too far, whether a disciple was created instantly due to the close distance, he didn't care.
Zixin flicked his finger at Su Long's forehead and turned him into meat paste, not even a nail sized bone was left. Only two objects remained intact, one was his token and the other was his storage ring.
[Ding! 5903 punches from Foundation Building Realm disciples have been released successfully.] sounded the system notification inside his mind.
He'd just unleashed all the punches of the Foundation Building Realm disciples he'd saved up when they beat him up in the pretext of giving him pointers. Everyone was stocked by what just happened including the unseen elder. They didn't know what means Zixin used but they were extremely terrifying, enough to kill a peak Core Condensing Realm disciple with just a flick of a finger to the forehead, instantly turning the opponent to moosh.
[...Ehem, Inner disciple Xong Zixin is now ranked first among Inner disciples and all of Su Long's belonging are now his including his private cultivation mountain and storage ring.] sounded the elder's voice after a long time. He had almost forgotten to announce the winner due to shock. Even Xiao Dan who was watching the fight from afar was shocked but quickly rvered and left the place at a fast pace.
Zixin picked up the storage ring and token, went to theunter and asked him how to use a storage ring. The disciple behind theunter then explained to him how use a storage and he quickly got a hang of it. Zixin then checked how rich Su Long was and his expression turned weird after checking.
"Here, take out everything from inside except for healing pills, if there's any of these ingredients, place them inside the storage ring and exchange everything for the best healing pills the each has to offer, in exchange, take as many blood pills as you want and don't be shy. Also, check for me how manyntribution points are in here." said Zixin to the person behind theunter.
"Senior Brother Zixin, there's one hundred and twenty seven thousandntribution points on this token."
"How many?! Say that again!"
"One hundred and twenty seven thousandntribution points."
"Oh my goodness, I'm about tomplete the Third Volume and it hasn't even been a day since I left closed door training. You have one hour, sort out my storage ring and give it back to me." said Zixin.
"Wow, such a huge mountain, that guy was definitely rich." said Zixin while gazing at the tall mountain that was now his property. There were medicinal plants and flowers planted around the mountain and close to the entrance.
Zixin then entered the crevice to check what it was like inside the mountain and it was very spacious with many array formations set up on the walls and floor but with the token, the arrays weren't activated.
There was a pit on the side shaped like a bathtub and Zixin this was where Su Long took his medical baths. The tub was above three and a half meters deep. Not wasting time, Zixin took out the resources he'd exchanged for and poured them inside the tub, when all the materials mixed together, the liquid solution changed from red to black and seemed to be boiling because of the bubbles that kept popping on the surface. Zixin then took off his clothes and submerged ginseng in the liquid solution.
At first, nothing happened but as more time passed, Zixin felt a stinging pain on his skin like someone had just stabbed him with a needle and after that, excruciating pain overwhelming him because the solution was burning his skin. After all his skin was burnt, new skin grew and got burned again, this process repeated itself again and again.
"A flick to the forehead was all it took to turn him into meat paste, not even a strand of hair remained."
"A new disciple called Xong Zixin, he came to the sect a few months ago and spent almost all of his time in closed door training."
"What about 'that' thing?"
"In the Mission Hall. He exchanged everything in Su Long's storage ring for healing pills so it's now easier to obtain it."
"I see, I'll try to get it without raising any suspicions. Don't worry, I won't seek revenge for Su Long even though he was my disciple. Weaklings don't deserve to call me master but I do have to save face right, otherwise I'll be the laughing stock of the sect."
"Just don't go too far."
"Message from the Sect Leader?"
"Haa... alright, I won't go too far, you may now leave."
