Chapter 22 - Golden Clouds

A new disciple actually dares to speak to Senior Brother Li Guanglong like this, this is courting death.

With Senior Brother Li Guanglong's strength, being able to rank in the top fifty of the inner sect was extremely powerful.

It had to be known that within the inner court, there were a lot of disciples who could enter the top 50 ranks. It was already something to be proud of.

"Brat, this time, there is no one helping you. Tell me, how do you want to die?" Li Guanglong said with an ice-cold expression.

After receiving all the items from the ch.o.r.e house, Fang Chen returned to his living quarters.

Within the inner sect, each disciple had their own residence. According to their strength, each disciple had their own residence.

In the residences of the top 50 ranked disciples in the inner court, the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth was extremely dense. Disciples outside of the top 50 did not receive such treatment.

This manual described some of the inner sect matters in great detail.

Moreover, there was even an inner court disciple's detailed ranking.

Fang Chen was ranked 50th.

It was said that the strongest person in the inner sect had reached the sixth level of Qi Refinement Realm, and could even retreat safely if faced with a pract.i.tioner at the seventh level of Qi Refinement Realm.

Fang Chen already knew about the Cultivation PaG.o.da, it was unique to the inner sect. As long as he had enough spirit stones, he would be able to cultivate in the Cultivation Tower.

There were a total of nine levels to the Heaven Stairway. On the Heaven Stairway, one could not use energy, only sword techniques.

Only disciples with high level of sword arts would be able to climb the Heavenly Stairway and reach the top.

Of course, in all these years, other than Xie Tiannan back then, no one else had ever been able to climb the stairs to the top.

Even the current number one person in the inner sect, Du Zhong, could only enter the eighth level.

No one knew what sort of benefits one would receive after reaching the ninth floor, but everyone knew that as long as they could reach the ninth floor, they would surely have great fortune.

Just as Fang Chen was looking through the manual, an elder suddenly found Fang Chen.

Fang Chen cupped his hands and said.

"Fang Chen, you are a disciple who just entered the inner sect. Every disciple who enters the inner sect has to complete a mission." The elder said.

Fang Chen nodded and asked: "May I know what kind of mission it is?"

Obviously, Fang Chen understood the rules of the inner sect and asked directly.

"The mission this time is to explore a tomb. There's a total of five people. Tomorrow morning, we will gather at the inner gate square." With that, the Elder left.

Early in the morning on the second day, Fang Chen appeared on the plaza.

What surprised Fang Chen was that the other four people on the plaza had already reached this level a long time ago, and of these four people, Fang Chen actually recognized two of them.

One was Li Guanglong, the other one was Ye Lin. The other two Fang Chen did not recognize.

"Hmph, I really didn't expect that I would have to do this mission with this piece of trash." Ye Lin said with an ice-cold expression.

Seeing Fang Chen's arrival, the elder laughed and said: "Alright, everyone is here, this time the five of you have to go and explore the tomb that appeared in the mountain range hundreds of kilometers away from Liang Yun City, but don't let your guard down. It's said that the other sects will also send their disciples there."

The tomb in the mountain range a hundred li outside of Liang Yuncheng. Wasn't this the exact same as the address on the rags he had obtained?

"Elder, why did you want us to do a mission with this trash?" Ye Lin said with a sharp voice.

"That's right, Elder, we don't want to bring a burden." Li Guanglong said.

Fang Chen did not speak, but the elder did. He is a newbie who just entered the inner sect. You guys need to take care of each other. Alright, we can set off now.

Leaving Fang Chen and the other three behind, they began their next move.

Just that, Fang Chen had long since been excluded by the other four people, he was alone at the back of the group.

Of course, Fang Chen didn't want to be a.s.sociated with them.

In front of the group, Ye Lin was conversing with Li Guanglong in a low voice.

"Senior brother Li, this trash, Fang Chen, has offended you over and over again. After entering the tomb, kill him." Ye Lin said.

"Yes, after entering the tomb, even if I kill him, no one will know." Li Guanglong laughed and said.

After arriving at Liang Yun City, Fang Chen and the other three immediately rushed towards the mountain range a hundred miles away.

Inside the Liang Yun Mountain range, Fang Chen and the rest advanced carefully. Fang Chen felt that the five of them were following a slightly different route from the one on the map.

Sou sou sou …

Two hours later, Fang Chen's group of five appeared atop a mountain peak. This mountain was the mountain peak where the tomb was located.

"Senior brother Li, there should be a tomb below, right?" Ye Lin asked.

Just as Li Guanglong finished speaking, the sound of something tearing through the air suddenly came from afar, followed by a group of people appearing on the mountain peak.

"I didn't expect that the disciples of Green Edge Sword Sect would arrive so early." A man wearing golden clothes had a disdainful expression on his face as he laughed.

"So it's the Liu Feng Zong's Golden Cloud." Li Guanglong said.

"Li Guanglong, with our Liu Feng Zong here, your Green Edge Sword Sect is destined to not get anything. If I were you, I would have already left with my tail between my legs." Jin Liuyun laughed.

"Hmph." Li Guanglong scoffed coldly, and no longer spoke.

Jin Liuyun was an inner disciple of the Liu Feng Zong. With his strength, he had reached the early stage of 5th level of the Refinement Realm and was much stronger than Li Guanglong.

Their Green Edge Sword Sect and the Liu Feng Zong were sworn enemies, but this time, they met here, and the opponent was clearly stronger than them.

"Hahaha, this kind of thing, how can we avoid our Seven Days Sect?"

Suddenly, a laugh rang out. A man in white clothes quickly rushed over, and in a short while, he reached the top of the mountain.

"Brother Flowing Cloud." Seventh Heaven greeted Jin Yun Yun, and did not even look at Li Guanglong directly.

In the Seven Days Sect, there were a total of seven most outstanding disciples this year, and they were all given the t.i.tle of 7 days. The person who came was the seventh disciple of the 7 days, called the seventh day.

Even though the seventh day was the seventh ranked disciple of the 7 days, their strength should not be underestimated. Even Jin Yun did not wish to be an enemy of the 7 days.

In front of Jin Liuyun and the 7 days, Li Guanglong was not worth mentioning. He was just a disciple of Fourth level of the Refinement Realm.

"Could it be that there's no one else in the young generation of Green Edge Sword Sect? actually sent a few Fourth level of the Refinement Realm disciples over. " The seventh day sneered.

Although the tomb of a powerful expert was very attractive, only a few people knew of it. In the Greencloud Country, there were only people from the three major sects who had arrived.

Seven Days Sect seemed to be very confident in the seventh day, but this time, only the seventh day was sent.

On the contrary, the Green Edge Sword Sect was much poorer.

"This Goldcloud probably isn't as strong as the Seventh Heaven." Fang Chen said in a low voice.

Just as Fang Chen was speaking, Jin Yun suddenly sensed something, and his face changed slightly as he looked at Fang Chen.

Hearing Jin Liuyun's questioning, Fang Chen replied, "Green Edge Sword Sect, Fang Chen."

"Brother Liu Yun, is there a need to get angry at a Fourth level of the Refinement Realm pract.i.tioner?" The seventh day laughed.

When Li Guanglong and Ye Lin heard this, their eyes flashed with a smile. They really wanted Jin Yun to kill Fang Chen.

"That's right."

As soon as Jin Yun finished his words, he clenched his fist and threw a punch at Fang Chen.

"Bang …"

Fang Chen anxiously blocked, but he still retreated a few steps.

Jin Yun and the Seventh Heaven were obviously startled. The power that Fang Chen had displayed seemed to be a little stronger than what they had imagined.

"Could it be that the disciples of the Liu Feng Zong are attacking people for no reason at all?"

"Brat, no matter how you argue, it's useless. I, Jin Yunyun, will take your life."

Hearing Jin Liuyun's words, Li Guanglong and the rest were stunned.

"So, you can die now."

As soon as Jin Yunyun finished speaking, he prepared to attack.

However, at this time, the mountain suddenly shook. The next moment, the mountain collapsed and all the disciples fell into the tomb.

Crash …
