Chapter Eighty Blackmail

  Chen Xuan racked his brains, thinking of how to get through this current predicament. The two core disciples were not people he could handle alone. Last night's battle had likely made them fully aware of his abilities. Chen Xuan thought for a whole incense stick before finally coming up with a plan. He had no other choice but to do it this way. With five or six hours left until nighttime, he would try to master the set of martial skills within this time frame.

  One explosion after another came from the cave of a mountain peak, this was the hundredth failure, every time Chen Xuan himself would be blown to pieces, now Chen Xuan couldn't care about that anymore, compressing spiritual energy wasn't that simple, if it wasn't compressed well he would also be blown to death, and so on and so forth, repeating the compression and explosion.

  Until nightfall, Chen Xuan still hadn't fully mastered the compression, this set of martial skills wasn't Seven Kills Knife, maybe Seven Kills Knife would take a day to figure out on its own, time was too short, if I had one more day's time I would definitely succeed in compressing it.

  Chen Xuan lay on the ground and said, "Today's compression has exhausted Chen Xuan to the point of collapse. However, it wasn't all for nothing. From compressing a face basin size this morning, Chen Xuan had now compressed it down to a sea bowl size. But it was still far from the chicken egg size mentioned earlier. The further he went, the harder it became."

  Chen Xuan did not choose to continue cultivating the Star Explosion, but instead began to recover his physical strength. At this point, he was powerless, and if they wanted him to hand over his cultivation method, it was a pipe dream. Even if he handed it over, would they not kill him to silence him? As a core disciple, he had the power of life and death over inner and outer door disciples. If he were killed, it would be a meaningless death, and in the end, they would just give him a false accusation, and he would still die unjustly.

  The night was slowly falling, and the entire Danxuan Gate was shrouded in darkness, but for disciples who had already reached the Lingwu realm, darkness could no longer block their line of sight. Chen Xuan did not stay in his own stone mansion, but instead came out to stand at the entrance of a large stone mountain.

  Gazing into the distance, I've been on this continent for a year now. I wonder if the Earth would still be as vibrant and colorful without me, with its neon lights flashing, red lanterns aglow, and a world full of flowers. I wonder how my family is doing now. Without strength, I couldn't even protect my own loved ones. Chen Xuan's heart was screaming in anger: I must become stronger!

  Just as Chen Xuan's thoughts drifted away, two figures landed silently behind him. "You've finally arrived," Chen Xuan said.

  The two were shocked. How did he know they came back to find her? Had someone already informed him? The two exchanged a glance, and quickly withdrew their astonished gaze.

  "Two seniors arrived at Lian Shanfeng in the middle of the night, I'm afraid it's not to appreciate the night view. What are you doing sneaking around to our Lian Shanfeng in the middle of the night?" Chen Xuan said coldly.

  "You're Chen Xuan, right? We've heard some things about you lately. I hear you've offended quite a few people. If you tell us the skills you have on your body, we'll help you smooth everything over." What do you say to that?

  "My affairs don't need both of you brothers to worry about, if there's nothing else I'm going to rest now," Chen Xuan said coldly.

  "Don't be shameless, Chen Xuan. We now have evidence against you. Last night's battle at the foot of the mountain was clearly seen by us. If we were to sell this information to the Bi family, I'm sure they would reward us handsomely. However, out of friendship as fellow disciples, we've decided not to reveal this information... for now. All you need to do is share your cultivation techniques with us, and we'll forget about this whole thing. What do you say?" Zhou Tian Ming said.

  Chen Xuan sneered coldly in his heart, these two indeed came to attack his own skills.

  "Want my kung fu? Follow me."

  After finishing speaking, Chen Xuan rushed down the mountain with a swift and fierce movement, his Shadow Nine Changes technique was displayed at an incredible speed. This was the first time Chen Xuan had ever used his footwork to such an extent. He didn't want to cause too much commotion in Danxuan Gate, or else everyone would know about it. Although he wasn't afraid of the Bi family, his family members were now a weakness for him, and he couldn't help but be on guard.

  The two also rose into the air and flew towards Chen Xuan's direction. The two of them were flying behind while exchanging words.

  "Zhou Tianming, what's going on with Chen Xuan? We were also thinking of luring him out of Danxuan Gate to deal with him. Unexpectedly, he came out first. If it was within Danxuan Gate, we really wouldn't dare make too much noise. Once some powerful people find out, we'll probably lose our chance in the future. This is better, let's just take care of him directly and not leave any future troubles," Ning Feixia said ruthlessly.

  "Ning Fei said you're as cunning as a fox, I didn't expect your heart to be so ruthless too. But I agree with what you mean," Zhou Tianming said with a loud laugh;

  Several people ran in front, two chased behind. Chen Xuan advanced swiftly on land, even he himself didn't know where he was going. Now Chen Xuan's only thought was to find a place without anyone and thoroughly resolve this matter. At the Dan Xuan Gate, he was completely at a disadvantage, not even daring to fully reveal his own strength. Once they started fighting, many disciples would come to watch, and by then his affair would be spread throughout the city.

  The trees cast their shadows in a row, Chen Xuan ran with all his might for two hours, and the distance from Dan Xuan Gate should be about 10,000 miles now. Chen Xuan saw a large open space appear in front of him, suddenly stopped, standing still waiting for the two people behind to catch up;

  After a dozen breaths or so, Zhou Tianming and his companion also slowly descended tens of meters away from Chen Xuan.

  "Kid, why aren't you running away? At Dan Xuan Gate, we still have something to consider. You actually ran out yourself, originally we were going to leave you a way out. Now there are only three of us left here, don't blame Brother for being ruthless. Who made your kung fu so overbearing? Hand over your kung fu and we'll give you a quick death, don't force us to take action. We're not those half-step True Martial artists you defeated, we're the real deal," Ning Fei said.

  "You two actually bullied your fellow disciple, disregarding the sect's rules. You want my kung fu? Let's see if you have what it takes to kill me. If you can kill me, my kung fu will naturally be yours. But my kung fu only has one set; how do you plan to divide it between the two of you?" Chen Xuan said:

  "You don't need to stir up trouble, just kill you and the two of us will naturally divide the kung fu. I advise you to take out the kung fu honestly now and avoid some suffering," Zhou Tianming said.

  "Want me to take it out myself? You can forget about that, the method is on my body, who among you wants to come and take it," Chen Xuan made his battle preparations.

  "You don't know what death is, do you? Ning Fei's aura suddenly became violent, the earth began to crack, and a whirlwind swept around me. Let's see how I'll deal with you, you ignorant little brat!"

  Ning Fei Xia's two hands reached out towards Chen Xuan, wanting to capture him alive.

  "'Want to capture me alive?' Chen Xuan sneered, and with a wave of his hand, four Chen Xuans appeared out of thin air, entwining each other as they struck out various hand seals, finally merging into a stream of energy that shot towards Ning Fei Xia."

  "How dare you resist," Ning Fei Xue shouted; Emperor Flow Broken, open for me. Ning Fei Xue struck out with his own Emperor Flow Fist, and instantly a furious gale howled, a tiger-like monster colliding with Chen Xuan's four Heavenly Energy Orbs, booming loudly.

  The ground shook and Chen Xuan was thrown out for tens of meters before he could steady himself. In the middle of the arena, a large pit appeared, tens of meters long and round. Ning Feixia stood opposite him, not moving at all. This was the power of the True Martial Realm. He had no chance of winning whatsoever, and to make matters worse, Zhou Tianming was standing beside him. It seemed that today he would be unable to escape his fate.

  With a swish, Chen Xuan drew out his own evil charm. The moment the evil charm appeared, a red glow reflected off Chen Xuan's face, making his expression dark and terrifying. This was going to be the most difficult battle he had ever faced in his life.

  Give me the kill, Chen Xuan's Shura aura was fully activated, and the air around him had a hint of Shura's breath. Ning Fei Xiang, who was facing him, suddenly appeared to be confused for a moment, invaded by Chen Xuan's scattered Shura aura into his brain, but quickly recovered his senses.

  "What is this aura," Ning Feixia and Zhou Tianming exclaimed in surprise, standing opposite Chen Xuan.

  This is the aura of Asura, Zhou Tian shouted loudly;
