Chapter 64: Master’s Summon
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Three days after the Alchemy House won against the Beast Garden, Feng
Wensheng brought up the topic of the demon blood, saying, “Senior Brother Zhang, the senior brothers in the Alchemy House said they can provide more
Foundation Establishnt demon blood. Would you be interested?”
Zhang Chen had already anticipated this and he asked calmly, “How much
Foundation Establishnt demon blood can you provide every day?”
“Seven buckets.”
“Okay, from now on, send seven buckets of Foundation Establishnt demon blood at this ti every day.”
After the agreent was made, Feng Wensheng left excitedly, and Zhang Chen returned to his cave to continue his cultivation.
Sect missions and sect assessnts had nothing to do with him.
Ti passed quickly during cultivation.
Day after day, two years had passed.
“Senior Brother Zhang, are you there?”
Hearing the call, Zhang Chen stopped his cultivation and walked out of his cave. He saw an inner sect disciple and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“Senior Brother Zhang, Elder Blood River said that the three-year period is up.
He asked to summon you over.”
Zhang Chen was stunned for a mont, then rembered that when he beca a disciple, Elder Blood River had told him to go to Blood River Peak after three years.
“Alright, I understand.”
“I’ll take my leave.”
Watching the inner sect disciple leave, Zhang Chen sighed with emotion. “Ti flies. Three years have passed without realizing it.”
He had been very comfortable during these three years, and if he could, he would have continued like this. Unfortunately, the sect only gave them three years to stabilize their cultivation.
Then, Zhang Chen frowned. “It’s only been exactly three years, and my master is already summoning . It seems like he really cares about .”
He had considered escaping from Blood God Sect. However, although Foundation Establishnt cultivators would no longer be cursed, he needed to leave a wisp of his divine sense before leaving the sect to facilitate the sect’s search and confirm his life and death.
Unless he could evade the sect’s search, or beco powerful enough to not fear Blood God Sect’s pursuit.
In the past three years, he went to the Technique Exchange Pavilion every few months to exchange for a new spell to make himself stronger.
If he really found a way to escape, he would not have so many spells to learn after becoming an itinerant cultivator.
“I can’t avoid it. I have to go.”
Zhang Chen sighed helplessly and turned into a blood light that flew towards Blood River Peak.
Blood River Peak was actually a mountain range surrounded by a river of blood.
From far away in the sky, one could see courtyards and pavilions in the mountains.
In the place where the elders lived, there was a formation naturally existing.
Zhang Chen arrived at the corner of the mountain and bowed, saying, “Disciple
Zhang Chen seeks an audience with Master.”
A huge and ferocious bat, emitting the aura of the fifth level of Qi condensation, flew out of the mountain and transford into a rebellious young man upon landing.
The young man examined Zhang Chen. “You’re Zhang Chen? Master instructed to take you to the cave abode.”
“Thank you for leading the way, Senior Brother.” Zhang Chen was polite and calm, showing no intention of befriending him.
“Follow .” The young man turned around arrogantly and walked up the mountain.
Arriving at the huge cave abode on the mountainside, Zhang Chen saw Elder Blood River sitting cross-legged.
“Master, Zhang Chen is here.” The young man was very respectful to Elder Blood River.
Zhang Chen bowed and said. “Greetings. Master.”
“Ah Bat, you may leave.” Elder Blood River waved his hand.
“Yes.” The young man retreated.
Elder Blood River first sized up Zhang Chen before saying, “Since I’m your master, I naturally have to teach you sothing.”
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a jade slip floated in front of Zhang Chen.
“This is the ‘Blood Demon Technique’. It condenses the blood’s demonic energy, allowing you to attack while detached from your body, as well as defend by surrounding yourself with it. It is both offensive and defensive. You must practice diligently. Later, I will evaluate your progress. If you satisfy , there will be great rewards.”
“Thank you for the technique, Master. I will definitely master it as soon as possible.” Zhang Chen bowed and received the jade slip.
Elder Blood River nodded. “I’m in charge of the Beast Garden. I have disciples to help manage it. As my disciple, you are no exception.
“Your Third Senior Brother isn’t around, so you will temporarily take his place. When he returns, I will make other arrangents. For specific details, ask your senior brothers and sisters.”
“Understood,” Zhang Chen agreed.
“In half a year, I will test the progress of your Blood Devouring Demon
Technique. You can go back now.”
“Yes, I’ll take my leave.”
Looking at Zhang Chen’s departing figure, Elder Blood River had an inexplicable expression.
During the inner sect competition, he could tell that Zhang Chen was not affected by the crazy atmosphere of the Mad Blood Saber Technique. He guessed that he had a special physique or a treasure that could resist madness.
But he didn’t think too much about it at the ti, and it wasn’t until two years later when Zhang Chen reached Foundation Establishnt that he caught his attention once again.
His cultivation improved so quickly, and coupled with his immunity to the effects of the madness atmosphere, Elder Blood River had so ideas and took Zhang Chen as his disciple.
The ‘Blood Devouring Demon Technique’ given this ti would severely affect Zhang Chen’s ntal state after cultivation, but Elder Blood River didn’t say anything and urged him to cultivate it to verify his speculation.
Zhang Chen left Blood River Peak and went straight to the Beast Garden.
Most of the demon blood in Blood God Sect ca from the Beast Garden. Whoever controlled the Beast Garden controlled the source of demon blood.
By sharing the affairs of the Beast Garden, he could naturally gain benefits from it.
Perhaps in the future, he would no longer have to exchange demon blood with others.
“Senior Brother, do you have any instructions?”
Arriving at the Beast Garden, Zhang Chen found that the registration disciple was not the usual person. “Where is Wang Zhengang?”
“Senior Brother Wang has been promoted to the inner sect. You can tell if you need anything.” The registration disciple had a fawning expression.
Three years ago, Wang Zhengang was already at the seventh level of Qi Refinent. It was normal for him to advance to the inner sect.
Zhang Chen continued to ask, “Who is the senior brother in charge of the Beast
Garden now?”
“It’s Zhou Xuewu, Senior Brother Zhou.”
It was Fifth Senior Brother.
Zhang Chen nodded slightly. “Go and inform Senior Brother Zhou that Seventh
Junior Brother Zhang Chen is here to visit.”
“Senior Brother Zhang, wait a mont. I’ll get soone to report it now.” The registration disciple imdiately turned around and instructed a guard disciple.
Not long after, a blood light flew over from the beast mountain.
It was Zhou Xuewu. “Seventh Junior Brother, is there sothing you need?”
“What are the affairs and benefits for us senior brothers in the Beast Garden?” Zhang Chen asked in response.
The cake of the Beast Garden was only so big, and his joining would inevitably dilute his senior brothers’ interests.
Therefore, he did not ntion taking over. Instead, he was prepared to ask about the allocation of affairs and benefits before he joined.
Although Zhou Xuewu was suspicious, he still answered, “Our affairs are the sa, taking turns to guard the Beast Garden to prevent any monsters from escaping, and checking and maintaining the formation. The other small matters are handled by the disciples below.”
“What benefits can we get?” Zhang Chen continued to inquire.
Zhou Xuewu frowned slightly, feeling that Zhang Chen seed to want to intervene in the Beast Garden’s tasks.
This was inevitable, but they wouldn’t let Zhang Chen participate until the Master spoke.
However, there was nothing that could not be said.
“The cost of taking care of the demon beasts, unowned demon beasts, and the commission deducted when taking blood for the sect’s tasks.”
“How do we split these benefits?”
“First Senior Brother gets 30%, Second Senior Sister gets 20%, Third Senior
Brother gets 20%, Fourth Senior Brother gets 15%, I get 10%, and Sixth Junior Brother gets 5%. If you join, the benefits will be redistributed, but no more than 50%.”
“I just ca from the Master’s place. He said that Third Senior Brother is not in the sect and asked to take over his affairs first.” Zhang Chen finally explained his purpose..
Zhou Xuewu’s expression changed slightly. He did not understand Elder Blood River’s arrangent.
Previously, when he participated in the Beast Garden’s affairs, his master said that he would look for Eldest Senior Brother to make arrangents, but he said to Zhang Chen that he would replace Third Senior Brother. Did that an that Third Senior Brother’s benefits were also given to Zhang Chen?
Zhou Xuewu could not guess what Elder Blood River was thinking. He hesitated for a mont and said, “Since Master ordered it, I’ll leave Third Senior Brother’s matters to you. The order of the mission and the distribution of benefits still need to be discussed with Eldest Senior Brother and the others..”
