The Great Ruler - Chapter20

"Training in the Northern Spiritual Field?"

When Mu Chen heard this, he was slightly startled. The Northern Spiritual Field was a well-known dangerous place within the Northern Spiritual Realm. It was vast and filled with various ferocious Spiritual Beasts. From time to time, there would be exploration teams that would enter to hunt Spiritual Beasts. Moreover, there were many rare materials and elixirs in the Northern Spiritual Field. It could be considered a treasure land. Of course, if you want to obtain the treasure, you must have enough strength. Otherwise, not only would you not be able to obtain the treasure, you would also have to leave your life there.

Due to the abundance of resources in the Northern Spiritual Field, there were times when even Mu Chen's father would personally lead his subordinates into the Northern Spiritual Field. Every time they entered, there would definitely be a fierce battle.

"That's right. Our Northern Spiritual Academy's Heaven Class would organize students to train in the Northern Spiritual Field every once in a while. This is because only real combat would have the effect of training people."

Tang Qian 'Er nodded her head and smiled sweetly, "This training allows two people to form a team. If the final result is in the top three, there will be a special reward."

"Reward?

What is it? "Mu Chen's eyebrows twitched slightly.

"It is said that it is the Yun Spirit Pill this time." Tang Qian 'Er thought for a while and said.

"Yun Spirit Pill?"

Mu Chen was slightly surprised. This Spirit Pill was said to be extremely beneficial for beginners like them who had just started their training. The Spirit Pill's medicinal power was mild and would not leave any side effects. If someone with the strength of a Spiritual Movement Stage Middle Phase were to consume it, he might be able to reach the Spiritual Movement Stage Late Phase in a short time.

"Yes, if I can obtain a Yun Spirit Pill, I should be able to reach the Spiritual Movement Stage Late Phase and prepare to break through to the Spiritual Rotation Stage in the future." Tang Qian 'Er said.

"How are the results judged?" Mu Chen asked curiously. It was obvious that the Yun Spirit Pill had piqued his interest.

"It's very simple. It depends on who kills the most Spiritual Beasts and has the highest level."

Tang Qian 'Er said, "Because all the students in the Heaven Class have the opportunity to participate, the competition is extremely fierce. That's why I wanted to pull you in."

"I am only at the Spiritual Movement Middle Stage. Shouldn't you find someone stronger to form a team?

And I think with Sister Qian 'er's charm, there are a lot of powerful people who want to team up with you, right? "Mu Chen said with a smile.

"You don't want to?" Tang Qian 'Er lightly snorted and then waved the dark red jade slip in her hand.

"I couldn't ask for more. But if we don't get the Spirit Fusing Pill, you can't blame me for dragging you down."

Mu Chen smiled. He wasn't just being polite. After all, he seemed to have the strength of a Spiritual Movement Stage Middle Phase. In the Northern Spiritual Academy, there were many more suitable candidates than him.

Tang Qian 'Er pondered for a moment. Soon after, she smiled and said: "It's fine if I can't obtain it. I am confident that I can reach the Spiritual Rotation Stage within a year even without relying on the Elixir."

As she spoke, her slender fingers gently turned the jade slip. Her beautiful eyes glanced at Mu Chen and said: "Also, I don't like to form a team with others."

"Since Sister Qian 'Er thinks so highly of me, then I can only risk my life to accompany you. Sister Qian' Er, don't worry. Even if I have to risk my life, I will definitely help you secure the Accumulation Spirit Pill." Mu Chen pretended to be bold and patted his chest. However, his face was filled with a smile.

"You have a glib tongue." Tang Qian 'Er glared at him with a slightly red face and said angrily.

"Then, this Spiritual Art?" Mu Chen smiled as he looked at the jade slip in Tang Qian 'Er's hand.

"Just this once."

Tang Qian 'Er let out a snort. Then, she held onto the Spiritual Art and turned around to leave the Spiritual Arts Room. Seeing this, Mu Chen quickly followed her.

At the entrance of the Spiritual Arts Room, Tang Qian 'Er registered the Spiritual Art. When the old man in charge of the Spiritual Arts Room saw the dark red Spiritual Art, he looked at Tang Qian' Er in astonishment. He hesitated. After all, the "Limitless Death Seal" was too infamous. Although Tang Qian 'Er met the requirements, he did not want to see such a beautiful girl be harmed by this Spiritual Art.

When Mu Chen saw the old man hesitate, he became slightly anxious. He knew that the Spiritual Arts Room's Old Man Qin was an extremely pedantic and stubborn person. If he did not like someone, then no one would be able to take the Spiritual Art away from him. Moreover, even though the old man looked as if he was about to die, his strength was truly at the Spiritual Rotation Stage Late Phase. He was only one step away from the Spirit Stage. There were many arrogant students who had suffered great losses at his hands.

Fortunately, Tang Qian 'Er obviously had a way to deal with this kind of old man. A pure smile appeared on her beautiful face as she sweetly called him "Grandpa Qin". This caused the old man to happily nod his head. Finally, after giving some instructions, he handed the Spiritual Art to Tang Qian' Er.

Mu Chen was speechless as he followed Tang Qian 'Er out of the Spiritual Arts Room. The latter smiled proudly at him and threw the jade slip to him.

"It's all thanks to you."

Mu Chen received the jade slip and played with it for a while. There was a hint of joy in his black eyes as he smiled at Tang Qian 'Er. Looking at the situation today, if it wasn't for Tang Qian' Er, even if he had the authority, it would have been difficult for him to borrow the Spiritual Art from the stubborn Old Man Qin.

Tang Qian 'Er smiled and helplessly looked at the jade slip in Mu Chen's hand: "Be careful. If there's anything wrong, immediately stop cultivating."

"Okay, then I'll go back first."

Mu Chen held onto the jade slip and could not wait any longer. He waved his hand at Tang Qian 'Er and quickly left.

The young girl looked at Mu Chen's figure as he quickly left. She could not help but pout her red lips. This block of wood.

Ice-cold moonlight poured down from the sky, transforming into rays of light that landed in a quiet room. In that room, a young man was quietly sitting cross-legged. His pitch-black eyes were currently staring intently at the dark-red jade strip in his hand.

Mu Chen stared at the jade slip for a moment and then gently placed it on his forehead. As his Spiritual Energy circulated, the surface of the jade slip began to flash with a dark red light.

As the light flashed, a large amount of information flowed out from the jade slip and finally poured into Mu Chen's mind.

Mu Chen closed his eyes and accepted the cultivation method of the "Limitless Death Seal". After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes and let out a breath. His black eyes were filled with thoughts.

After all, the "Limitless Death Seal" was too infamous. Therefore, even Mu Chen did not dare to be too careless. Instead, he repeatedly read the cultivation method a few times before he began to cultivate.

Mu Chen sat cross-legged and clasped his hands together. His fingertips formed a strange seal. With a move of his mind, a dark black light flickered on the surface of his body. Traces of dark black Spiritual Energy began to linger around his palms.

The dark black Spiritual Energy was like a small black snake. Following the changes of Mu Chen's seal, it constantly twisted around his palm. Faintly, it seemed to be gradually forming a black light seal.

Crack.

However, the formation of this glowing seal was clearly not easy. Therefore, before the seal was able to solidify, a faint sound rang out and the dark-black Spiritual Energy that was entwining around it was shattered.

Regarding this first failure, Mu Chen did not mind at all. If this "Limitless Death Seal" could be cultivated so easily, he would not be so interested in it.

Slightly restraining his mind, Mu Chen began again.

Crack.

Failure.

Crack.

Failure again.

Time quickly passed, but Mu Chen did not feel tired as he continued to cultivate again and again. The seals formed by his hands gradually became more skillful. The speed at which the Spiritual Energy was condensed also became faster.

His slender hands were like butterflies as they constantly changed their arcs. Dark-black Spiritual Energy twisted within his palms as the black glowing seal became much clearer. Faintly, there seemed to be a chilling fluctuation being emitted from it.

Mu Chen stared at the black light seal that was about to take shape. His mind was extremely tense. He had already failed at this last step too many times.

Mu Chen's fingertips changed again and a trace of dark black Spiritual Energy flowed into the black light seal.

Buzz!

The black light seal suddenly trembled and a buzzing sound was emitted. Then, the black light began to converge. In the end, it turned into a black light seal and slowly imprinted on Mu Chen's palm.

Just as the light seal was imprinted on Mu Chen's palm, his entire body suddenly tensed up. This was because the next step was the most dangerous step. In the past, the two seniors who cultivated the "Limitless Death Seal" had their Meridians broken at this step.

Boom!

The black light seal was imprinted on his palm. Soon, Mu Chen felt an extremely violent fluctuation erupt from the light seal. Then, it followed the Meridians in his palm and crazily rushed in.

It was as if it wanted to destroy all the Meridians along the way.

"Buzz!"

Fortunately, Mu Chen was already prepared. The dark black Spiritual Energy within his aurasea rumbled as it whizzed out and collided with the violent fluctuations.

A low buzzing sound seemed to explode from within Mu Chen's body.

The fluctuation from the "Limitless Death Seal" was abnormally violent. It was like a wild beast that attacked the dark black Spiritual Energy in an attempt to destroy it.

However, the dark black Spiritual Energy that was cultivated from the Great Pagoda Art was not as easy to deal with as it had imagined.

Faced with such a berserk attack, the dark-black Spiritual Energy completely revealed its overbearing nature. With an extremely forceful and oppressive stance, it completely resisted the attack.

Boom boom.

The attack continued, but Mu Chen did not dare to relax at all. Cold sweat appeared on his forehead. If he could not resist it at this time, he would definitely be seriously injured.

The Spiritual Energy in his Qi Sea was completely drawn out by Mu Chen. As he tried his best to resist, the attack lasted for about ten minutes before it finally began to gradually weaken.

When Mu Chen sensed that the impact had completely disappeared, his tensed up body instantly went limp. His clothes were drenched in sweat as he constantly gasped for breath.

However, although his body was abnormally tired, Mu Chen's eyes were filled with excitement. He slightly trembled as he opened his right hand. In the center of his palm, there was an eerie black seal inscription.

"Did I succeed?"

Mu Chen looked at the black seal inscription on his palm. A relieved smile finally spread out from the corner of his mouth.
