The fact that the Body Refining Fist had reached the fourth layer greatly shocked Fang Chen.
However, after a short moment, Fang Chen returned to normal. That was because he knew that all these changes were because of that strange golden heart.
The golden heart not only allowed him to see his body, but also provided him with an endless supply of energy.
In short, Fang Chen found that the golden heart was a great help to him.
"The Body Refining Fist has reached the fourth layer, and my strength has reached the strength of two oxen. But it's still not enough. Liang Yong's Body Refining Fist has reached the sixth layer at the very least," Fang Chen said in a low voice.
After reaching the fourth layer, Fang Chen prepared to stop cultivating. He had already cultivated for a long time today. Soon after, he turned and left.
Fang Chen was prepared to bury the matter of the golden heart deep in his heart. It was a matter of great importance. If others found out that he had a golden heart that could provide him with an endless supply of energy, he would definitely be schemed against by people with ulterior motives.
"With the help of the golden heart, it won't take long for me to reach the second layer of the Qi Refining Realm." Fang Chen smiled.
When Fang Chen passed by the Azure Edge Sword Sect's outer sect practice field, a few disciples stopped cultivating and looked at Fang Chen.
Their eyes were filled with mockery.
"Li Jun, what's there to see about this piece of trash? Hurry up and cultivate," a crew-cut disciple said impatiently.
"This kid is really lucky. He was heavily injured by senior brother Liang, but he recovered so quickly," the disciple called Li Jun said thoughtfully.
"Look, that martial artist is Fang Chen. A piece of trash who offended senior brother Liang." For a moment, the practice field was filled with whispers.
Although their voices were very soft, as martial artists, their spiritual senses were very sharp. When Fang Chen heard these mocking voices, his body froze for a moment. In the end, he took a deep breath and left.
However, just as Fang Chen took two steps forward, he suddenly stopped. A ferocious aura was emitted from his body.
"Fang Chen really is a spineless coward. If he doesn't kill himself, then what's the point of living?" This voice came from Li Jun.
When he heard this voice, Fang Chen was unable to restrain the flames of rage in his heart any longer. He immediately turned around and glared angrily at Li Jun.
"Look at yourself in the mirror before you call others a good-for-nothing," Fang Chen said coldly.
"Fang Chen, how dare you speak to me in such a manner." Li Jun was also startled when he heard Fang Chen's words. Soon after, he spoke in a dense manner.
Normally, Fang Chen, who was publicly recognized as trash, would not dare to treat them like this. But now, Fang Chen actually dared to talk about Li Jun in front of so many people.
"What's there to be afraid of? Are you saying that you're allowed to call others a good-for-nothing, but you're not allowed to be called a good-for-nothing?" Fang Chen snapped.
"Fang Chen, you're courting death. What qualifications does a piece of trash like you have to point fingers at me, Li Jun?" Li Jun said angrily and icily.
The numerous disciples in the martial practice field were all whispering amongst themselves. That made Li Jun even more furious. He wanted to make that trash Fang Chen lose all face.
"You keep on calling others trash. Don't tell me you're a genius from the very beginning? Didn't you also cultivate from the first Heavenstage of Qi Refining until now?" Fang Chen retorted.
"Trash genius Fang Chen, although the difference between the first and second Heavenstage of Qi Refining is only one stage, the difference between them is too great. You're already fifteen years old, but you're only at the first Heavenstage of Qi Refining. With your talent, even cultivating to the second Heavenstage of Qi Refining would be difficult. In front of you, I'm a genius."
Li Jun was at the second Heavenstage of Qi Refining. At the same time, he had cultivated the Body Refining Fist to the fifth Heavenstage. In Li Jun's eyes, Fang Chen wasn't even worth mentioning.
He, Fang Chen, was a complete piece of trash.
"That's right. Fang Chen, you piece of trash. You actually want to be mentioned in the same breath as Senior Brother Li Jun. What a joke." A few disciples who had a good relationship with Li Jun spoke out.
Fang Chen looked around at the crowd. His eyes were cold, and the corners of his mouth were raised. His face was full of disdain.
"Genius, I think you're just an idiot." Fang Chen said sternly.
If it was the original owner of this body, he definitely wouldn't have dared to say such words. But now, this body was under Fang Chen's control.
Fang Chen's character wasn't as cowardly as the original owner. If someone insulted him, he would return the insult a hundred times over. That was his principle.
Moreover, Fang Chen also had something to rely on. His Body Refining Fist had reached the fourth Heavenstage. Although he hadn't broken through yet, it was only a matter of time.
The current him already had the strength of two bulls. Even if he faced Li Jun, he would be able to escape unscathed.
Sure enough, after hearing Fang Chen's words, Li Jun was angry.
"Good, good, good. Fang Chen, I'll let you know how the trash that you spoke of defeated you." After Li Jun said those words, he suddenly threw out a punch.
The fifth Heavenstage of Body Refining Fist was instantly displayed. A tyrannical force directly gathered from Li Jun's body on his fist.
Roar!
Two roars came out, indicating that Li Jun had the strength of two bulls.
"Fang Chen is a bit ignorant. His strength is so weak, but he actually dared to provoke Li Jun."
"Yes, Fang Chen is looking for trouble. Li Jun's strength, in the outer sect, can be regarded as below average."
"Fang Chen can't withstand a punch from Li Jun. It's really a self-inflicted disaster."
Many disciples were not optimistic about Fang Chen. They thought that Li Jun could send Fang Chen flying with a punch.
Calmly standing there, Fang Chen's eyes slightly moved. Staring at Li Jun who was attacking him, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
Immediately, Fang Chen clenched his fists and used the Body Refining Fist. His body's strength instantly erupted.
Roar!
A roar was heard as Fang Chen's fist collided with Li Jun's fist.
BANG!
With a loud bang, a figure was instantly sent flying. Everyone looked over and was instantly incomparably shocked.
The one sent flying wasn't Fang Chen, but Li Jun. Just what was going on?
It was also at this moment that a second roar was heard.
Many disciples were incomparably shocked. Fang Chen had clearly cultivated to the strength of two bulls.
"How is this possible? Fang Chen sent Li Jun flying with a single punch!"
Fang Chen withdrew his fist and coldly looked at Li Jun lying on the ground. At this time, Li Jun was seriously injured, and his eyes were filled with killing intent.
"Trash."
After saying that, Fang Chen turned and left, leaving behind the many shocked disciples.
"Senior Brother Li Jun, are you alright?"
A few disciples who had a good relationship with Li Jun ran over to him and asked worriedly.
"Pfft!
Li Jun could not hold back. He vomited a mouthful of blood and fainted.
In the courtyard, Fang Chen had just returned when he heard a knock on his door.
When he opened the door, two disciples ran in, panting. They carefully sized up Fang Chen.
"Fang Chen, I heard that you had an argument with Li Jun. How are you? Are you alright?" The one who spoke was the fatty Xiao Shan, one of Fang Chen's best friends.
"Fang Chen, did Li Jun bully you? That son of a bitch, let me go destroy him." This was also Fang Chen's best friend, Jiang He.
Jiang He and Xiao Shan were Fang Chen's best friends in the Azure Edge Sword Sect. They were very loyal to Fang Chen. Although everyone said that Fang Chen was trash, Jiang He and Xiao Shan did not think so.
Today, Jiang He and Xiao Shan, who were cultivating, heard that Fang Chen had a conflict with Li Jun. Afraid that Fang Chen would be at a disadvantage, they rushed over.
Fang Chen looked at his two best friends and felt a warmth in his heart. He smiled and said, "I'm fine."
"Fang Chen, are you really fine? Would Li Jun let you off so easily?" Xiao Shan asked as he sized up Fang Chen.
Jiang He also stared at Fang Chen. The latter smiled faintly and did not hide anything. He told his two best friends about how he defeated Li Jun.
"What? You actually defeated Li Jun?!"
"Fang Chen, you broke through?!" The two best friends asked in pleasant surprise.
"It's just the fourth layer of the Body Tempering Fist," Fang Chen said.
"Brat, you actually broke through without anyone noticing. Haha!" Jiang He and Xiao Shan laughed out loud.
After a long time, Jiang He withdrew his smile and said worriedly, "Fang Chen, you defeated Li Jun in public. Liang Yong will not let you off."
"Liang Yong tried to kill you three days ago. He definitely won't let you off this time," Jiang He added.
Liang Yong was a pinnacle martial artist of the second tier of Qi Refinement and was very strong. Jiang He and Xiao Shan were not his match, which was why they could not protect Fang Chen.
"Fang Chen, you might have improved a lot, but you are still not Liang Yong's match," Xiao Shan reminded him.
"I heard that Liang Yong went out on a mission and will only return in half a month. With his hatred for you, he will definitely attack you. You have to be careful," Jiang He said.
Fang Chen smiled faintly at that and said, "Do you have so little confidence in me?"
Xiao Shan and Jiang He were very confused when they saw the current Fang Chen. It was as if Fang Chen had become a different person. There was a sharpness about him that was not there before.
Seeing Fang Chen's serious face, Xiao Shan and Jiang He actually nodded at the same time.
"Fang Chen, we want to trust you. If Liang Yong dares to touch you again, we will stop him even if we have to risk our lives," the big Xiao Shan said.
"Fang Chen, cultivate well. Come find us if you need anything." After the three of them chatted for a while, Jiang He said goodbye to Xiao Shan.
When Fang Chen was the only one left in the courtyard, Fang Chen took out a book from his clothes.
One Qi Sword, an unorthodox sword technique. It was one of the trashiest cultivation methods in the Green Edge Sword Sect.
"I can only cultivate it for now," Fang Chen said with a pained smile.
Before reaching the second tier of Qi Refinement, one could not enter the outer sect's Cultivation Method Hall to choose a cultivation method. Hence, Fang Chen could only cultivate this unorthodox cultivation method.
One Qi Sword could only be cultivated by a disciple like Fang Chen who was only at the first tier of Qi Refinement.
Opening the book, Fang Chen started cultivating.
Soon, the chant for the One Qi Sword appeared in Fang Chen's mind. Fang Chen followed the chant and cultivated.
Just as Fang Chen cultivated the One Qi Sword, the golden heart beat faster. Then, a thought flashed in Fang Chen's mind.
In the next moment, Fang Chen instantly stood up. Holding the sword in his hand, he brandished it and sent out a strange sword light.
"Puchi!"
The sword light appeared in the sky and only lingered for a moment before disappearing.
At this moment, Fang Chen's face was filled with excitement.
