Three days passed, and despite the injuries on Zhang Ruochen’s body getting heavier and heavier, he didn’t escape and remained in the Hurricane Secret Room, still cultivating the Royal Wind Flying Dragon Shadow.
Under the unique environment and immense pressure of the secret room, Zhang Ruochen’s progress was rapid.
Now, every minute, he would only hit the stone wall ten times at most, and if he played well, he would even only hit it seven times.
This was a sign that the Royal Wind Flying Dragon Shadow was progressing!
Crashing on top of the stone wall wasn’t just about getting injured, it was also about refining his body.
At the end of each cultivation, Zhang Ruochen could feel his flesh lifting by a point, becoming stronger and his shins more powerful.
At the same time, the true qi in his body also became purer and his meridians tougher.
“Although the environment in the Hurricane Cultivation Chamber is very harsh, it is also allowing me to accelerate the consolidation of my realm. If I keep on cultivating like this, it will only take me three months at most to hammer my current cultivation to the Perfection Realm.”
Zhang Ruochen calculated that cultivating in the Hurricane Chamber would result in hundreds of impacts with the stone walls almost every day.
Half a month passed quickly.
In the Hurricane Cultivation Chamber, Zhang Ruochen almost never rested, either cultivating or recuperating from his injuries.
If it wasn’t for his strong spiritual power, he would probably have collapsed long ago.
Even so, he was now feeling exhausted and dizzy, his entire body felt like it was in a state of confusion, and he couldn’t even use a single ounce of strength in his entire body.
Of course, Zhang Ruochen had gained a lot from half a month of devilish cultivation.
Now, in the middle of the Hurricane Cultivation Chamber, he would only collide with the stone wall almost five times per minute.
In the middle of the hurricane, he was at his best and could hover for thirty seconds. Within thirty seconds, he was able to harness the wind and control his centre of gravity to ensure that he didn’t crash on top of the stone wall.
……
Chen Xi’er walked into the Tong Sheng Mountain and arrived outside the Hurricane Cultivation Chamber. Her body was dressed in a snow silk garment, her hair was pulled back in a bun, her eyebrows were hooked, her red lips were painted, and a white bell was still hanging on her head.
With every step, a pleasant bell sound would be emitted.
In the past half a month, Chen Xi’er was coming to Tong Sheng Mountain for the fifth time.
“He hasn’t come out of the cultivation chamber yet?” Chen Xi’er asked.
The one silver-robed elder stood up and said, “He has been cultivating in there for half a month, counting the time, he should come out!”
The silver-robed elder knew Chen Xi’er’s identity, so in front of her, he did not present himself as a senior, instead, he conversed with her as a peer.
Chen Xi’er’s jade finger gently stroked her chin, a smile appearing on her face as she said, “Only at the Xuan Extremity Realm, he was able to last for half a month in an Earth Grade Cultivation Chamber. Elder Yao, why do you think he was able to do that?”
The silver-robed elder said, “In the last ten years, the genius who performed the best in the Hurricane Cultivation Secret Chamber was County Lord Smokey. The first time she came to the Hurricane Cultivation Secret Chamber, she lasted a total of three days. However, her cultivation at that time had already reached the early stage of the Earth Extreme Realm.”
“The second time she came to the Hurricane Cultivation Chamber, she lasted for a total of half a month. Her cultivation at that time had already reached the middle stage of the Earth Extreme Realm. And, that’s because, she was originally a wind-attribute physique, that’s why she was able to be that powerful.”
“Zhang Ruochen isn’t a wind-attribute physique, and is at the Xuan Extremity Realm’s cultivation level, yet he’s even more powerful than County Lord Smokey.
Then his cultivation level is probably quite close to the Supreme Extreme Realm of the Xuan Extreme Realm. Perhaps, he went to cultivate in the Hurricane Cultivation Chamber in order to impact the Supreme Extremity Realm.”
Upon hearing the silver-robed elder’s analysis, Chen Xi’er’s fair face revealed a hint of a strange colour as she said, “Doesn’t it mean that no one has been able to reach the Supreme Extremity Realm even since ancient times?”
The silver-robed elder laughed, “Actually, there may not be no one who has been able to reach the Supreme Extreme Realm, it’s just that those who have reached the Supreme Extreme Realm simply won’t openly speak of it. Just like Zhang Ruochen, if he had reached the Supreme Extreme Realm, he definitely wouldn’t say it out either.”
Chen Xi’er nodded.
If Zhang Ruochen was really striking the Supreme Extreme Realm, then there was even more reason not to let him go.
……
Zhang Ruochen, who was bruised and battered, dragged his exhausted body out of the Hurricane Cultivation Chamber.
At this moment, he only wanted to find a place to have a good sleep.
Seeing Zhang Ruochen who walked out, Chen Xi’er immediately greeted him, her voice crisp and pleasant, and said with concern, “Senior Brother Zhang, how did you get so badly injured?”
When Zhang Ruochen saw Chen Xi’er, he revealed a few surprised looks and said, “Senior Sister Chen, why are you here?”
Chen Xi’er said, “I counted the time, and you will probably leave the gate today, so I came to pick you up.”
“Pick me up? Pick me up where?” Zhang Ruochen said.
Chen Xi’er blankly glanced at Zhang Ruochen and said, “Of course, I’m picking you up to recuperate from your injuries and have a good rest in the meantime.”
Although Zhang Ruochen was very tired after not resting for half a month, he had kept his sanity.
After all, he didn’t know Chen Xi’er very well, so why was she so kind to him?
“No need!” Zhang Ruochen said.
Chen Xi’er said, “Why is it not necessary? In your current state, do you still want to leave the Inner Palace Academy and go outside to find a place to live, how dangerous would that be. Besides, what if you meet Zuo Lengxuan again?”
It had to be said that Chen Xi’er was indeed very smart, and everything she said was what Zhang Ruochen was most worried about right now.
Zhang Ruochen pondered for a moment and said, “Alright!”
Inner Palace disciples of the Martial City Palace of Learning only needed to spend one hundred points of Merit Value to exchange for a secret cultivation mansion in the Inner Palace Palace of Learning.
The vast majority of Inner Palace disciples had their own secret cultivation mansion, and Chen Xi’er was naturally no exception.
When they walked into the Cultivation Secret Mansion, twelve maids came out to greet Chen Xi’er and Zhang Ruochen.
“Greetings to the master.” The leading one of the maidservants, whose cultivation had reached the Yellow Extreme Realm Great Extreme Position, looked to be in her twenties, with a rather pretty face.
Those maids were all rather surprised because, it was the first time their master brought a man to the Cultivation Secret Mansion.
Chen Xi’er glanced towards Zhang Ruochen and smiled, ”In the Martial City Palace of Learning, as long as one has Merit Value, anything can be exchanged. Take these maidservants for example, the cheapest maidservant can be exchanged for one with just one point of Merit Value. As long as the exchange is successful, from now on, she belongs to you. If you have enough merit value, you will even be able to exchange for maids of Xuan Extreme Realm and Earth Extreme Realm cultivation.”
Chen Xi’er commanded and said, “Green tea, green tea, is the Seven Spirit Medicinal Liquid Spring Water ready?”
“As per master’s orders, the medicinal liquid has been prepared.” The two maids said at the same time.
Chen Xi’er nodded and said, “You two immediately take Senior Brother Zhang to the medicinal liquid spring water to heal his wounds.”
Zhang Ruochen stared towards Chen Xi’er, a little surprised in his heart, “I’ve only met her twice, why is she so attached to me?”
Even if Chen Xi’er was Huang Yichen’s cousin, there was no reason for her to go to this extent.
What exactly was her purpose?
At this moment, Zhang Ruochen was very tired and did not want to think too much as he followed the two attendants to a bathing pool.
The medicinal liquid in the bath pool took on seven different colours and emitted a strong and exotic fragrance.
The Seven Spirit Medicinal Liquid Spring Water was made from seven types of healing medicinal liquids in a certain ratio. The value of any one of the medicinal liquids exceeded one hundred thousand silver coins, and the value of the seven medicinal liquids combined was more than a million silver coins.
Even a Heavenly Extreme Realm Martial Myth would only use the Seven Spirit Medicinal Liquid Spring to heal their injuries when they were extremely injured.
A single pool of medicinal liquid could almost buy half a city, which could be said to be quite extravagant.
Lying in the Seven Spirit Medicinal Liquid Spring Water, Zhang Ruochen felt indescribably relaxed all over his body as his pores opened up and greedily absorbed the medicinal power in the spring water.
Gradually, Zhang Ruochen was in the pool and fell asleep.
……
Meanwhile, Huang Yichen came to Chen Xi’er’s Secret Mansion of Cultivation, cupped the battle sword in one hand, and waved his palm out with the other.
There was a loud boom.
The copper ring was shattered and fell to the ground.
The two huge copper doors, under the impact of the palm force, opened up.
“Smokey County Lord, the master is in closed-door cultivation, you must not break in now.” The two maids immediately welcomed them out, kneeling on the left and right sides, and said pleadingly.
Huang Yichen held his battle sword, his body standing straight, his eyes sharp as he said, “Is that so? How come I saw that she just came back from Tong Sheng Mountain?”
“Swish!”
A beautiful silhouette swept out from the Cultivation Mystery Mansion, leaving behind a series of residual shadows, and appeared underneath a maple tree.
It was none other than Chen Xi’er.
Chen Xi’er had a smile on her face as she walked over towards Huang Yichen, saying, “Cousin, who on earth has pissed you off, why are you so angry?”
Huang Yichen’s eyes were icy cold without a trace of a smile as he opened the door and said, “Where is Zhang Ruochen, tell him to get his arse out here.”
“Hehe! So cousin is here to look for Senior Brother Zhang.”
Chen Xi’er’s face didn’t have a trace of panic, instead, her smile became even more beautiful as she softly said, “Senior Brother Zhang is cultivating in the Hurricane Chamber, and he has suffered a very serious injury, and is now healing his wounds in the Seven Spirit Pill Liquid Spring.”
Huang Yichen’s eyes grew even colder as he said, “Cousin, he’s my fiancé, even if he wants to heal his injuries, he should go to where I am to heal his injuries. I’m afraid it’s not too good for him to stay in your secret cultivation mansion!”
Chen Xi’er was still smiling as she said, “It’s not because of what happened last time at the Heavenly Moon Mansion, he was worried that you were still angry with him, so he didn’t go to you and temporarily stayed at my Cultivation Mystery Mansion. Cousin, you go back first! I’ll help you take care of Senior Brother Zhang, as long as he’s in my Secret Mansion of Cultivation, no one can hurt him.”
Huang Yichen had no intention of leaving, and his eyes sank as he said, “Chen Xier, don’t go too far. I know exactly what you’re playing at. To tell you honestly, since Zhang Ruochen is engaged to me, he is my fiancé. Any woman who dares to hit on him is making an enemy of me.”
Chen Xi’er laughed, “Hehe! I really didn’t expect that Cousin Sister was actually treating Senior Brother Zhang as her fiancé, and I thought that you were just falsely engaged. Cousin, don’t worry, if there really is a woman who dares to hit on cousin-in-law, I will help you teach her a lesson.”
Huang Yichen and Chen Xi’er had been fighting together since they were young, so she understood Chen Xi’er very well.
Chen Xier was the type of woman who would do anything to achieve her goal, she must have seen Zhang Ruochen’s natural talent and potential, so she took the initiative to compete for Zhang Ruochen.
She didn’t just want to snatch Zhang Ruochen, she also wanted to strike Huang Yichen. Only by snatching Zhang Ruochen would she be able to show that she was even better and more charming than Huang Yichen.
Huang Yichen was too lazy to play mind games with Chen Xi’er and said, “Where is Zhang Ruochen? Today, I am definitely going to take him away, whoever dares to stop me, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
Chen Xi’er laughed and said, “Cousin, don’t blame cousin for not reminding you, men don’t like to be forced by women, if you must take him away, I’m afraid it will backfire.”
“I do things, I don’t need you to teach me.”
Huang Yichen’s pair of diaphanous eyebrows slightly crossed, coldly stared at Chen Xi’er, dragging her magnificent blue long hair, travelling in the direction of the Seven Spirit Pill Spring Pool.
