THE MARTIAL GOD

THE MARTIAL GOD
Chapter 10: The Arena of Life and Death



Looking at Lin Feng as if he was an unreachable hero, Han Man smirked: "We are like brothers. You killed Jing Feng. We will not have the confidence to act. We all share responsibility for it. People may call me many things, but no one ever calls me a coward. ”


He easily understood the real reason why Lin Feng had killed Jing Feng. He had done everything with his own hands because he did not want to involve them in any future trouble. Han Man really admired Lin Feng. Lin Feng's heart was right and his good actions made his pure intentions easy to see.


“To be exact, if there are consequences then we can share the burden together. Moreover, Yun Hai sect disciples are not allowed to kill each other, so we are safe within the sect. Even if Jing Hao suspected that we had killed Jing Feng, he could not retaliate, ”Qing Yi was determined.


"Don't forget about me, I'll also be by Lin Feng's side until the end" Jing Yun blushed. Her smile was beautiful at this moment.


"Alright," said Lin Feng happily after being good friends with them.


Qing Yi was right, although the Yun Hai sect did not mind things happening outside of the sect, they still imposed strict restrictions within the sect to stop anyone causing trouble.


Lin Feng crouched down and started looking for Jing Feng's body looking for the items he had been carrying. He took out a book: it was a skill book.


"Roaring Thunder: Sword Skills. ”


Lin Feng opened this skill book while whispering the name of the skill. Roaring Thunder was a yellow-level skill. If the skill was mastered perfectly, each blow would look like a bolt of lightning followed by the rumbling of a lightning explosion. The roar would travel in the trajectory of the sword with overwhelming destructive power.


"Roaring Thunder is a sword skill from Xing Chen Pavilion. Two brothers Jing Feng recommended this to practice. This is a powerful skill but it is so difficult to learn and master that you can always roar like thunder. ”


“I also practiced that skill but I failed to understand the concept. My strength when using it is limited, ” explained Qing Yi. Qing Yi was trained to become a sword Cultivator, therefore she had read many sword skill books before.


Lin Feng just nodded. He only practiced three skills: Nine Heavy Waves as an offensive and defensive technique, the movement techniques that the Moonlight Agility Fur and Sword Unsheathing so needed allowed him to quickly attack with terrifying killing power. If he practiced Roaring Thunder, he could combine it harmoniously with Nine Heavy Waves and at the same time achieve new powers that might be able to overcome the Sword Unsheathing skill.


"Are we going back now?" Jing Yun asked Lin Feng. Today, they all regarded Lin Feng as the leader of the group.


“Since we're already here, why rush back? Wouldn't it be better to look for more beasts to hunt? '' Said Lin Feng who did not want to return to the sect earlier. In Black Wind Mountain, he could gain battle experience and practice the Roaring Thunder skill at the same time. Isn't it much better like this?


Others need not be afraid of staying. Lin Feng was there with them, as long as they did not meet an extremely powerful ferocious beast, they would not be in danger much less now that Lin Feng had shown his true strength. There was no need to rush back to the sect.


"If we can get some pills in exchange for the ingredients we have collected, it will be better," Jing Yun said hoping to harvest more beasts. A good pill was a pill that helped improve the Cultivator's training and allowed them to reach the higher Qi layer. It was a very useful item for Cultivators. However, it required killing many ferocious beasts to obtain one good pill. Items that could be traded for good pills could only be found on high-level beasts which made them extremely dangerous.


Lin Feng s eyes were shining. He remembered how useful a single pill could be to a lower-level disciple. Even though he was able to defeat an eighth level ferocious beast with little effort, he was still at the seventh Qi layer which was still only an average level within the disciples. If he could reach the next Qi layer, he probably wouldn't have to rely on Sword Unsheathing skills anymore and would be able to defeat a Cultivator who had already reached the ninth Qi layer.


Five days later, in the middle of the dense forest, a powerful roar sounded from Ling Feng's sword. The sound of a small explosion crackled in the air around him. The sound produced by his sword still made Jing Yun jump in fear.


"HOME, BOOM …. . ”The trees were destroyed regardless of contact with the roar. Lin Feng used his sword so gracefully that it seemed like it was dancing in the air. You won't be able to tell from the sight that his sword has such a terrifying power.


"Being able to use a Roaring Thunder skill like this after five days, he is truly a monster" Qing Yi said with a wry smile and observed from a safe distance. He had also practiced sword skills and had already practiced the Roaring Thunder Sword skill. He knows how hard it is to use. Lin Feng had been training for five days and each punch produced a loud explosive sound. That was an amazing achievement. Qing Yi's heart felt heavy watching this.


"Don't compare yourself to Lin Feng. He used the cloudy leopard as part of his training .. "said Han Man with both hands crossed on his chest while looking at the fight between Lin Feng and the cloudy leopard. What made Lin Feng so terrifying was that he could kill ferocious beasts at any time, but instead use them for training. He was so quick to use the sword that such an invisible wall appeared in front of him, blocking anything that approached. Even if the cloudy leopard was extremely fast, there was no way for him to be able to match Lin Feng's speed.


"YAHOO!" Shouted Lin Feng merrily while stabbing the leopard in the head causing its head to rumble then explode into pieces.


Lin Feng sheathed his sword with a smile. He was very satisfied with the Roaring Thunder skill. The skill had reached the level now where it made roaring sounds with each attack. If Lin Feng managed to master the skill perfectly, it would become stronger than the Nine Heavy Waves. Its greatest advantage was that it was an attack of pure oppressive might.


Lin Feng's face looked smooth and his facial features gave off a handsome yet gentle feeling. Compared to what he was like in his previous life, he looked even more refined.


"Han Man, how many deep pills can we get in exchange for the ingredients we collect from wild beasts?" Asked Lin Feng.


"At least thirteen. '' Said Han Man whose eyes were full of excitement. They did not imagine that they would gather so much stuff. It was all thanks to Lin Feng. If Lin Feng wasn't there, then it would be difficult to kill a level seven ferocious beast


“Very good, we can each have 3 pills inside. We can exchange other materials for useful items or weapons. Now, we can return to the sect and enjoy our hard work. ”


A deep (quality) pill was a very efficient way to increase one's strength on the path of cultivation. The pill was most effective the first three times, after absorbing it, the Qi within the body would start to show resistance. The first pill would cause the body to overflow with Qi and the probability of reaching the next Qi layer would be extremely high. Each of the following pills the effect will be greatly decreased and after the third the effect of the pill will be minimal.


“Three pills in. “Han Man and the others are very happy. There were many pills to choose from and they would have the opportunity to cultivate to the eighth Qi layer with the help of pills. Within the Yun Hai sect, the lowest Cultivators were at the fifth Qi layer. Disciples who had reached the seventh Qi layer were also considered average. Only those who had reached the eighth Qi layer received the full benefits of the sect.


During the days with Lin Feng, they began to understand his personality and how he acted. He was determined on his path of cultivation and had an incredible god-like aura emanating from him at all times.


"Let's go back," said Lin Feng.


The first thing they did after returning to the sect was to go and exchange their precious items for twelve pills within which each one was given three. Lin Feng had also exchanged some additional materials for a long sword. Han Man gets a new axe for himself. Qing Yi exchanged items with two pills in the ground that would strengthen one's fundamentals on cultivation grounds. Qing Yi finally realized that her Cultivation base was not strong enough.


What Jing Yun exchanged for her items somewhat surprised Lin Feng: beauty pills. These deep pills are used to make women more attractive and beautiful. If an evil woman were to use beauty pills, they would not have such a great effect as it would reflect the nature of their Qi essence. However Jing Yun was an extremely pure and innocent girl and it would have an enhancing effect on her beauty. Lin Feng didn't understand why he chose the beauty pill because he was already so beautiful to her.


"Why are you looking at me like that?" Jing Yun asked Lin Feng who couldn't stop looking at her. He could only blush and look away.


“Nothing, it's just that you're already very pretty. I don't feel like you have to change in any way. ”Said Lin Feng who suddenly looked very embarrassed before starting to laugh awkwardly. Since Jing Yun had chosen the beauty pill, who was she to intervene?.


"Lin Feng, are you planning to return?" Han Man asked Lin Feng. He thought that if they had the chance, Lin Feng and he could return to the Black Wind Mountain together and gather more materials.


“Let's practice and improve our skills first. I think being at the seventh Qi layer is still too low in the sect, ” said Lin Feng. It was indeed just enough to be considered average by others.


“Indeed, we all need to improve our skills as Cultivators. Lin Feng, given your current strength, you can go anywhere to practice. I don't think anyone will stop you ”Kata Han Man shook his head. He then recommended a distant place where there was a very wide canyon. It was the most famous place of the Yun Han sect: Stormy Gorge.


The Yun Hai Sect was surrounded by eight extremely tall mountain peaks. In the middle of the mountain peak of the Yun Hai sect was the Stormy Gorge which had a deepest point of several hundred meters. It covered a very large area and was divided into several areas like an underground city. The canyon was vast and many different sights could be seen within it. If you enter it, maybe you will end up in the middle of the forest or maybe in the desert.


Provided they did not enter the canyon looking for people to fight, no matter what their level was, the Yun Hai sect would encourage its disciples to go and gather near-death experiences. Only the strongest disciples would enter the Stormy Gorge. Being weak and still daring to go inside would only cause the death of the person himself.


Therefore Yun Hai sect disciples who had at least not reached the eighth Qi layer would not dare to go to the Stormy Gorge.


In addition, there was another place deep within the Stormy Gorge called the Life or Death arena. Provided a disciple voluntarily set foot into the Life or Death arena, they could fight to the death out of grudge and if they were to be accidentally killed, the Yun Hai sect would not be involved. While direct killing was not allowed here, once beaten within an inch of their lives, it was almost impossible to return safely. Some people would even secretly kill injured disciples as they attempted to return to the sect. If you have enough power, you can even kill other disciples in public and the sect will turn a blind eye.


People who are about to enter the Life or Death arena have killed their family members or friends and cannot live without revenge.


"Of course I'll go," said Lin Feng looking towards the area where the Stormy Gorge was located. Observing the crowd on the horizon heading into the canyon, his expression greatly changed as he recalled his past.


If when Lin Feng had only reached the fifth Qi layer and people could still call it a piece of trash, it would have been a piece of trash, he would have no choice but to watch the battle in the Stormy Gorge from a distance while avoiding all the other disciples.


This is of course how he has been framed.
