Chapter 884
How about we just rob these three Holy Sects?
"Your family might send you a letter soon asking you to go back home. Just ignore it."
Wang Yanran didn't ask any more questions, and instead got down to business.
Chen Feng asked in confusion, "Why?"
“Your third uncle’s son has returned from outside. Don’t go back to the family for a while. I’m here to let you know.” Wang Yanran looked at Chen Feng calmly.
Upon hearing this, Chen Feng was momentarily stunned.
Although he interrogated Wang Ping about many things, most of them were about the Three Saints Sect, and he knew nothing about the Wang family.
He had no idea who his third uncle's son was.
Although he didn't know what was going on, he nodded and said:
"Alright, I understand. How are things going with the sect and the Blood Demon Palace lately?"
He's been back on Earth for quite a while now and doesn't know anything about the Three Saints Sect and the Blood Demon Palace. It just so happens that Wang Yanran is here, so asking her is undoubtedly the best option.
Wang Yanran glanced at Chen Feng, then said:
"The sect has investigated the cause of the disappearance of the Haotian Secret Realm planet and has found the culprit!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Feng was startled.
Did I expose myself?
He almost couldn't resist and slapped the woman in front of him to death.
After all, if he were exposed, everyone in the Three Saints Sect would be his enemy.
But soon, Chen Feng realized that if he were exposed, this woman wouldn't talk to him like that.
He suppressed his emotions and asked:
Who did it?
Wang Yanran said in a deep voice: "Bloody Hand Butcher! Elder Zhao was also killed by this person."
"Bloody Hand Butcher?" Chen Feng was momentarily stunned.
Wang Yanran explained:
“It’s normal that you don’t know. This person is a Dao Integration cultivator hidden by the Blood Demon Palace. We only recently learned about him. The Blood Demon Palace recently made a high-profile announcement that he was the one who killed Elder Zhao. We don’t know his name yet, we only know that his nickname is Bloodhand Butcher.”
Hearing Wang Yanran's words, Chen Feng was now certain that the so-called Blood Hand Butcher was a fabrication by the Blood Demon Palace.
But why would the other party fabricate such an identity and even take the initiative to admit that the Blood Demon Palace killed the Dao Integration Master of the Three Saints Sect?
Chen Feng was filled with doubt.
"This matter has nothing to do with you. Even if the sect fights a major battle with the Blood Demon Palace, it will send other people to participate. Just stay in the sect and cultivate in peace. It doesn't matter if you don't earn contribution points. Your aunt said that as long as you can break through to the Void Refinement stage within ten years, she will reward you with 100,000 contribution points."
Wang Yanran thought Chen Feng was worried about the Blood Demon Palace.
"Okay, I understand." Chen Feng nodded.
He wished he could remain hidden forever, so he could avoid people Wang Ping knew and cultivate in peace. Once he was strong enough, he wouldn't be afraid even if the Three Saints Sect discovered Earth.
"I'll be going now." With that, Wang Yanran turned and left.
Clearly, she didn't want to talk to Chen Feng much beyond business.
After Wang Yanran left, Chen Feng entered the Mustard Seed Pearl. He was going to interrogate Wang Ping about the Wang family.
Fifteen minutes later, Chen Feng emerged from the mustard seed bead.
Through interrogating Wang Ping, he has learned what the so-called third uncle's son is all about.
The Wang family has produced many talented young people in this generation.
Among them was Wang Heng, the son of the third son of the Wang family. He reached the Nascent Soul stage at the age of forty and recently broke through to the Void Refinement stage.
After breaking through to the Void Refinement stage, he became a disciple of an old monster at the fourth step of the Dao Integration stage.
With this identity, Wang Heng returned this time to compete for the family heir.
The Wang family is now in a dilemma.
Behind Wang Ping was Wang Lanyue, a cultivator at the third step of the Dao Integration Realm, while behind Wang Heng was a cultivator at the fourth step of the Dao Integration Realm. Both sides were Dao Integration Realm cultivators, and the Wang family could only have one heir.
Ultimately, the Wang family, through an internal meeting, decided to have Wang Ping and Wang Heng fight each other to determine their successor.
But no matter how you look at it, the Wang family is clearly biased towards Wang Heng this time.
Wang Heng is at the Refinement stage, while Wang Ping is only at the Nascent Soul stage. Putting a Nascent Soul cultivator to fight a Refinement stage cultivator is clearly a losing proposition.
This matter had been brewing for several years, but because Wang Heng was away training and had not returned to the Wang family, it was delayed.
Now that Wang Heng has returned, this matter has naturally come to the forefront.
In fact, Chen Feng was not surprised that the Wang family made this choice. Although Wang Lanyue was a member of the Wang family, she was not close to the Wang family and even harbored some hostility towards them.
Moreover, Wang Lanyue was only at the third step of the Dao Integration stage, while Wang Heng's master was at the fourth step.
"The position of head of the Wang family." Chen Feng didn't mind taking over the position of head of the Wang family.
The Wang family is a top power in the Xuanhuang Realm, possessing immense wealth. Controlling the Wang family would bring enormous benefits.
However, he doesn't have that idea for now; improving his strength is the most important thing for him right now.
Chen Feng then left the Bamboo Heart Secret Realm and headed to the Treasure Hall of the Three Saints Sect.
The Treasure Hall is the treasury of the Three Saints Sect, containing all sorts of cultivation resources, including those for cultivators at the Dao Integration stage.
Chen Feng went to the treasure hall this time to check if there were any spiritual items inside that cultivators at the Dao Integration stage could use to undergo tribulation.
Before long, Chen Feng arrived at the Treasure Hall. Many disciples of the Three Saints Sect were going in and out of the Treasure Hall, and there were a lot of them.
The Three Saints Sect is about to go to war with the Blood Demon Palace, so naturally many disciples came to the Treasure Hall to exchange items.
Chen Feng ignored the people who greeted him.
Wang Ping was arrogant and domineering by nature, and naturally looked down on everyone. How could he possibly pay attention to these low-ranking disciples?
Upon entering the treasure hall, the scene before Chen Feng's eyes changed.
Just like in the Hall of Transmission of Dharma, several portals of light appeared in front of Chen Feng.
However, compared to the six light gates of the Dharma Transmission Hall, there are more than a dozen light gates here, each marked with its destination.
Such as formations, elixirs, spells, cultivation techniques, supernatural powers, puppets, etc.
Chen Feng quickly focused his attention on the portal displaying the spiritual object.
Spiritual objects are extremely important to cultivators. From the Golden Core stage onwards, cultivators need to rely on spiritual objects to break through realms, and when they reach the Nascent Soul and Void Refinement stages, they can even use spiritual objects to comprehend the laws.
This only applies to cultivation level; there are also special formations and alchemy techniques that require spiritual materials.
Therefore, spiritual objects are extremely valuable resources in the cultivation world.
After Chen Feng entered the portal where the spirit was located, the scene before him changed again, and he found himself in a room.
A boy of about seven or eight years old was standing in front of him.
Upon seeing him, the boy asked in a clear voice:
"Senior brother, what kind of spiritual item do you need?"
Chen Feng knew what this boy was; he was the spirit of the treasure pavilion's array.
While array spirits are rarely seen in the Nine Star Domains, they are ubiquitous in the Three Saints Sect.
Almost all the formations within the Three Saints Sect have formation spirits, especially the Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Formation used to defend the sect, which has a formation spirit inherited from ancient times. With this formation spirit controlling the Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Formation, even old monsters above the Dao Integration Realm cannot break through it.
Chen Feng asked directly:
Do you have any spiritual items that can help cultivators at the Dao Integration stage overcome their tribulations?
Tong Zi was clearly taken aback when Chen Feng asked this question.
Clearly, it was rather abrupt for Chen Feng, a Nascent Soul cultivator, to inquire about the spiritual items needed by Dao Integration beings.
"I'm asking for someone else," Chen Feng added.
The boy came to his senses and immediately said with a smile: "I see. Naturally, cultivators at the Dao Integration stage have spiritual objects. These spiritual objects are divided into five grades. Grade 5 tribulation-crossing spiritual objects can weaken the tribulation of the first and second steps, while grade 4 spiritual objects weaken the tribulation of the third and fourth steps. Grade 3 spiritual objects can weaken the tribulation of cultivators at the fifth step of the Dao Integration stage."
"As for first-grade and second-grade spiritual items, they can not only greatly weaken a cultivator's own tribulation, but also help a cultivator withstand a crisis of divine lightning destroying their soul."
The boy explained a lot about the functions of Dao-integrating spiritual objects to Chen Feng.
Fifth-grade spiritual items are relatively common. This item can reduce the power of one's own tribulation by 20%, and the higher the grade, the more obvious the reduction effect.
For example, if a cultivator at the Void Refinement stage uses a Grade 3 spiritual object to overcome their own tribulation, the Grade 3 spiritual object can help them completely weaken the power of their tribulation.
Even if a cultivator at the fifth step of the Dao Integration stage uses a third-grade spiritual item, they can only weaken it by less than 10%.
Because at this level, the cultivator's own tribulations are too terrifying, and only higher-level spiritual objects can overcome them.
However, even the most common fifth-grade spiritual items require 300,000 sect contribution points to exchange for, and only sect elders are qualified to do so.
True disciples are not qualified to exchange for spiritual items of the Dao Integration level.
As for better spiritual items, the required contribution points are even more exaggerated.
To exchange for the final second-grade and first-grade spiritual items, one not only needs sect identity and contribution points, but also the approval of the Supreme Elder.
It also requires the approval of the Supreme Elder, who is one of the three Dao Integration Realm experts within the sect.
Because even the Three Saints Sect only has three spiritual items of this level, making them true treasures.
After learning the information, Chen Feng checked his contribution points. He only had a few thousand points, which was far too few.
Chen Feng looked around again, observing the room.
"Senior brother, is there anything else you need?" the boy asked.
Little did the boy know that Chen Feng was thinking about robbing this place.
"It's nothing, I don't need anything for now." After saying that, Chen Feng turned and left, ultimately giving up his plan to rob him.
If he were to attempt to seize it here, it would surely alert the three old monsters within the Three Saints Sect. He had no confidence in escaping from the clutches of three beings above the Dao Integration Realm.
Unless his scroll teleportation also works here, he might actually dare to steal it.
Since the scroll can be used for teleportation, he's not afraid of being blocked by people.
After leaving the Dharma Transmission Hall, Chen Feng began to think about how to gain contribution points.
If he can't steal it, then he can only make a profit.
Now, not only does he need a spiritual object to break through to the Dao Integration stage, but Yin Yin also needs a spiritual object to undergo tribulation. He is not comfortable letting Yin Yin undergo tribulation directly.
Just as Chen Feng was pondering, a voice rang out from afar:
"Wang Ping!"
Chen Feng turned his head and saw a woman dressed in the robes of an inner disciple walking towards him from a distance, followed by six people.
These people were almost all inner disciples, with the lowest cultivation level being the Nascent Soul stage, while the woman among them possessed the strength of the late-stage Divine Transformation stage.
Chen Feng didn't recognize the woman. He didn't know much about the inner disciples, and he figured Wang Ping probably wasn't familiar with them either, so he hadn't mentioned her to him.
"Who are you?" Chen Feng asked directly.
The woman became furious upon hearing this: "You don't even know who I am?"
An inner disciple standing nearby said with dissatisfaction:
"Wang Ping, this is Ding Ke, our inner sect member, Senior Sister Ding! Her father is Elder Ding, an inner sect elder."
"Oh, is there something you need?" Chen Feng asked, sounding annoyed.
This made Ding Ke and the others look very ugly. The inner disciple who had spoken up for Ding Ke earlier immediately said coldly, "Our Senior Sister Ding is here to challenge you. Do you dare to accept the challenge?"
The commotion immediately attracted the attention of many passing disciples.
The Three Saints Sect encourages competition among its disciples, especially within the True Disciple lineage. If a disciple is strong enough, they can challenge a True Disciple.
Although a true disciple can refuse, it would undoubtedly cause them to lose face.
Therefore, within the Three Saints Sect, when an inner disciple challenges a true disciple, the true disciple will generally accept.
Ding Ke said sarcastically:
"Wang Ping, you're not planning to reject me, are you? If you do, I won't say anything."
Chen Feng originally didn't want to pay attention to this so-called challenge, but he suddenly remembered his plan.
To gain enough contribution points in the Three Saints Sect, he needs to perform well enough, and exchanging for Dao Integration Spiritual Items also requires the status of a sect elder, which is a major limitation.
Therefore, he must make a name for himself, and ideally, he should mold Wang Ping into a genius.
Chen Feng looked at Ding Ke:
"Fighting is fine, but there has to be some prize involved."
"What do you want to bet?" Ding Ke immediately became excited. She originally thought Wang Ping would refuse outright, but to her surprise, he actually agreed.
Chen Feng casually said:
"Let's make it one million contribution points. Whoever loses gives the other one million contribution points!"
"One million??" Ding Ke and the others froze.
Ding Ke snapped out of his daze and said angrily:
"Wang Ping, if you don't want to compete, then forget it. Even a Dao Integration cultivator would find it difficult to come up with a million contribution points!"
"Then how much do you want?" Chen Feng asked.
“Three thousand!” Ding Ke finally uttered a number.
Chen Feng was speechless. Three thousand contribution points was like giving money to a beggar.
"That's too little. If that's all the contribution points you have, don't even bother competing with me, because you're not qualified!"
Chen Feng's words were very direct, which made Ding Ke so angry that his face turned red.
Many disciples nearby began to discuss the matter.
"Is Wang Ping afraid, so he deliberately suggested betting contribution points?"
"I think so. Without connections, how could someone with Wang Ping's talent become a true disciple?"
"However, his method does work. Betting on contribution points is something that people with few contribution points really can't do."
"."
Ding Ke overheard the disciples' murmurs and said through gritted teeth:
"Ten thousand at most!"
Chen Feng shook his head: "Two hundred thousand!"
"Fifteen thousand!"
"."
Finally, after some bargaining, the two sides agreed that the stake for the competition would be 30,000 contribution points.
This is all the contributions Ding Ke can offer.
Of course, she herself didn't have that many contribution points; it was the disciples watching around who lent Ding Ke some contribution points.
If Ding Ke wins, just give them a bigger share.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Ding Ke, as an inner disciple, to accumulate so many contribution points.
Chen Feng knew that this was the limit of contribution points Ding Ke could offer, so he didn't increase the stakes any further. (End of Chapter)
