Kang Qilin, Ye Lai, and Marissa were kneeling on the ground with their eyes closed, and suddenly the young man said, "Get down, quickly."


    As he said that, he prostrated on the ground, it was as if he wanted to be one with the ground. His actions seemed demeaning and funny, but they were not, because after the blinding glow of gold, a devastating shockwave followed.


    The girls also got down giving up on their dignity and waited it out. After five minutes, when they shakingly sat up, they were all panting and looked miserable. Kang Qilin looked in the distance where the tribtion had descended, and found Shi Lang standing with his hand resting on the hilt of the sword.


    What shocked the trio was not the fact that Shi Lang passed the tribtion, but he was still standing his ground. The spirit that Shi Lang disyed was dauntless. They did not expect something like this to happen at the end of a golden tribtion.


    The shockwave did not stop until it spread in the radius of nine kilometers. This distance was enough for people to sense some vague changes caused by it.


    ...


    Shi Lang was knocked out, in thest moment when he countered the heavenly general, he could not hold on anymore and used his ughter spirit to attack. The offensive move squeezed out every single drop of true essence in his body. The golden glow erupted because Shi Lang’s fire lightning had shed with the heavenly lightning and it was as strong as hundred atom bombs exploding together.


    Thank fully the energy was natural and did not harm the world, even des of grass began to sprout from the ground. The clouds parted and Shi Lang bath in golden light, but that was not all, his body was drenched in red drops of blood rain which fell from the clouds.


    Ye Lia eximed, "Heavenly blood rain!"


    Kang Qilin asked in curiosity, "What is Heavenly Blood Rain?"


    Ye Lia took a deep breath and said, "I am not very clear about it but in the history books of the Heavenly Mountain Sect, there is a mention that the founder had once passed the crimson cloud tribtion and then he bathed in the golden providence and also heavenly blood.


    This blood improved the quality of his blood, and improved his cultivation potential. The founder grew into a formidable warrior, and to respect the heavenly blood rain, he founded the sect on the mountain where he gained this favor."


    Marissa remarked, "That is why, the Heavenly Mountain Sect."


    Kang nodded in understanding, he then asked, "So, Shi Lang will also go under such tremendous changes?"


    Ye Lia shrugged and replied, "Fellow Disciple Kang Qilin, I am not sure to what extent his potential will increase, but I am sure that he will grow into a figure who will uplift the standard of the eastern continent tremendously. Our sect decrees that we should not offend those who are chosen by the heavens and can be the pir of the future sess and prosperity."


    Kang Qilin remarked, "Guardian Sect will also protect the talent for it to grow into a hero who can walk the path of cultivation and enlighten the others. I will not attack him either."


    The two of them looked at Marissa, who took half a step back and said, "What? I am not attacking him. He can take on my teacher in head to headbat. I don’t want to fight against him after watching what he just did, plus, the two halls are allies and he is the treasure of the Martial Spirit Hall, I don’t have a death wish."


    Ye Lia and Kang Qilin chuckled as they saw her all flustered. They could sense that Marissa was very strong, but since she did not wish to show her real strength they did not mind it. Everyone had their own secrets, and one thing was true, no matter how strong Marissa was she could not go against Shi Lang.


    ...


    The Terran sensed his body heal slowly, and then he sensed another energy that entered his blood stream. With his eyes closed the Terran was able to see the changes that his body was undergoing at the moment. To be honest, he was shocked that not only were the flowers in his Dantian growing and blooming at a visible pace, but his blood was also bing clearer.


    The strength that channeled through his body was intoxicating. Shi Lang clenched his fists around the hilt of his sword, while Raksha and Tribtion Spear also absorbed their share of Heavenly Blood Rain and Golden providence.


    The samsara cauldron began to spin on its ce before Shi Lang as it also enjoyed the benefits. Shi Lang did not say anything because if not for these weapons, he could have and would have died.


    ...


    The process of his refinement and absorbing the heavenly rewards was stretched for two days, Kang Qilin and Ye Lia watched him from the start to end, and Marissa was forced to apany them. Ye Lia imed that if Shi Lang was suspicious of them, then it would be better if Marissa could put in a good word about them.


    However, it was not needed, when Shi Lang finished with his enhancement the scenery inside his Dantian has changedpletely. Instead of several flowers blooming in, he had a big prismatic lotus sitting on top of a branch.


    His flowers merged together and his strength was ten times greater than that of a normal Dao General. It all happened because of the second energy that transformed his blood stream, and gave it a faint golden tint.


    If anyone else could peek inside his Dantian, they might go crazy. Shi Lang thought about it, and cast a few seals on his body. His aura did not change, and it looked as if he was still the Dao Soldier.


    He did not do it to fool the trio watching him in the distance, but to avoid the people outside the Garden Of Eden. The young man raised his head and looked around before he said, "Lady Marissa, my ring."


    Marissa did not dy and tossed his ring back. Shi Lang put on his clothes and came over to the three of them. Kang Qilin and Ye Lia were Dao Lord Realm cultivators yet they could not help but feel inferior in terms of temperament.


    Shi Lang cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Senior Sister Ye Lia, for allowing me to practice in that spot."


    He did not tell anyone that Raksha had already extracted the root of a thousand year old ice jade tree which was destroyed in the tribtion. That was what the five Dao Beasts were guarding in reality.


    Ye Lia reciprocated the gesture and replied with a smile on her face, "Junior Brother Shi Lang, your words put me on a pedestal that I do not deserve. Whatever happened it was your destiny and not something I did. To be honest, the disy of your skills and battle prowess have made me learn something new. Thank you."


    Shi Lang knew that these people were just giving him sweet nothings. He could smell the fear erupting from their souls. He then greeted Kang Qilin and thanked him for watching over him. However, Kang Qilin returned a response simr to Ye Lia. Read new chapters at NovelBin.C?m


    After a few words, Kang Qilin said, "Then Junior Brother Shi, I will see you in the Seven Star Tournament. I hope we can have a good battle then."


    Shi Lang smiled and replied, "I look forward to that day, Senior Brother."


    Ye Lia also expressed the desire to fight him one day, and then the four of them parted to leave and meet up with their own tears.


    ...


    Shi Lang and Marissa moved side by side, and the former asked, "Is there any trouble from the three houses?"


    Marissa shook her head and replied, "The disciples in seclusion are safe, and the three houses are stupid. They care about benefit and so they are still trying to find as many resources as they can. I wonder if they can out do us."


    Shi Lang shook his head and said, "The resources they got here, half of them have been taken back by us, when we hunted their people. The left over half, they might store it or auction it. It will be nothing more than that, because the alchemists who can refine these materials belongs to the big forces, and those forces are affiliated to the Two Halls, and Two sects.


    We all know the sects don’t care about anyone, but the halls will not refine high grade pills for the houses, unless they can find a renegade alchemist as good as ours."


    Marissa nodded and replied, "It makes sense. However, these houses are very cunning, let’s see what they do."


    Shi Lang nodded in agreement. They reunited with the batch of disciples from the halls, and joined the secluded cultivation till they are allowed to go back. Shi Lang needed to consolidate his foundation so, this was the most optimal time.
