The younger disciple hurriedly lowered his head and bowed before leaving to attack the treasure again.
“Shen Yuan… just you wait, bastard!” Shan Bo muttered to himself while gritting his teeth as he remembered how Shen Yuan scammed him out of his storage ring.
…
Wan Ling looked back at Shen Yuan, seeing how his injuries were healing rapidly. “Good, he is nearly healed now.”
Ling Mei muttered to herself, “His healing powers are truly otherworldly.”
They felt the treasure shaking as all the girls hurriedly looked outside the window. “This treasure might not hold up any longer,” one of the younger disciples muttered to herself.
But before they could observe outside the building any longer, they felt a wave of energy pulsating from behind them, which pressed most of them down on the ground as they turned around to see Shen Yuan floating up from his meditative position.
‘What is this Qi doing inside of me?’ Shen Yuan thought inwardly.
He tried to move the Qi from around his body, but it didn’t budge. ‘What the hell is this Qi made of? It has filled all my meridians and acupoints and won’t even budge now.’
He thought in frustration, but all of a sudden, his bloodline stirred as it released pressure on the weird Qi inside Shen Yuan’s body.
Shen Yuan felt something move in his body as he saw the weird Qi leaving his acupoints and meridians and gathering inside his dantian.
‘Wait, wait! That’s my primary cultivation dantian. It will ruin my foundation if it gathers there!’ he hurriedly screamed in his mind, and the bloodline seemed to listen to him.
It pulsed again, and Shen Yuan lost consciousness due to the pressure.
[What is happening?]
Yue Lan muttered softly as she felt Shen Yuan’s consciousness blanking, but before she could check further, the bloodline abomination she saw on her first day in this world manifested inside Shen Yuan’s sea of consciousness.
[What the hell are you doing here??]
Yue Lan’s voice chilled as she shouted at the abominable entity in front of her as the bloodline avatar stood in front of Shen Yuan’s true spirit.
But it didn’t reply to her as it turned around and stared at the weird Qi inside Shen Yuan’s main dantian, which seemed to be infecting his foundation.
The avatar raised its palm and slowly closed its fingers as if crushing an ant, and all the weird Qi infecting Shen Yuan’s dantian was pushed out and gathered inside the third empty dantian.
The dantian seemed to turn into a black abyss as the weird Qi settled there, seemingly satisfied with its new home.
The bloodline avatar lowered its hand and glanced back at Shen Yuan’s true spirit before dissipating and returning to Shen Yuan’s body.
[What even is this thing? Having the avatar of a bloodline manifest inside one’s sea of consciousness is unheard of throughout all realms.]
Yue Lan muttered to herself in confusion as the existence of the avatar didn’t make sense to her.
…
Shen Yuan’s body pulsed with energy as he slowly opened his eyes to see all the disciples, including Wan Ling, Ling Mei, and Chen Yue, kneeling in front of him due to the sheer pressure his body was unconsciously releasing.
“Ah, sorry about that.” Shen Yuan spoke in a gentle tone as he took back all the pressure that was being released from his body.
The girls finally felt alive again as they released their bated breaths, slowly standing up and seeing Shen Yuan perfectly healed and standing in front of them.
Wan Ling slowly moved towards him, staring at him with watery eyes. Shen Yuan saw her, smiled, and stepped forward to hug her tightly.
“Sorry for making you worry about me,” he said softly while gently caressing her back.
Wan Ling sniffed quietly and placed her head on his chest, hugging him back tightly as she asked with rough breaths, “What… what happened inside the tunnel?”
Shen Yuan patted her head. “We will talk about that later. For now, it looks like some stupid bastards are in dire need of getting killed.”
His eyes flashed with killing intent as he saw the disciples outside attacking their treasure.
“I expected something like this to happen, but I didn’t guess they would be this persistent. Looks like they haven’t learned their lesson yet,” he muttered as he started walking toward the exit.
Chen Yue, Ling Mei, and the others followed after him. “Let us help you, Senior Brother!”
They shouted in unison as Shen Yuan just smiled and continued walking forward while checking his internal situation.
‘Fuck! My cultivation dropped to the 7th level Foundation Establishment Realm due to the outbreak of that eerie Qi,’ he thought in frustration while checking the rest of his body.
‘Wait—the eerie Qi wasn’t expelled but instead stored into one of the other dantians?’ He felt his heart stop as he observed that abyssal dantian, which seemed unlike any of his other dantians.
He tried to move the Qi to utilize it, but the Qi didn’t budge even a little. ‘Fuck! Does this mean one of my dantians will be occupied with this Qi?’
He thought deeply about it but sighed in the end, thinking with a smile, ‘To hell with it, I have more than enough to lose out on a few of them.’
Shen Yuan kicked open the door as he saw the disciples outside preparing for another barrage of attacks on his treasure.
“What the fuck do you shitheads think you are doing?” Shen Yuan shouted as he looked toward the Ironwood Mountain Clan’s members. Stay connected through
All the clan members paused in their attacks as they saw Shen Yuan, but they soon laughed as they saw his tattered clothes.
“Hahaha, did you get stomped down by some beasts? Why are you in such tattered clothes?” Shan Bo laughed wildly as he saw Shen Yuan, but his smile soon froze as he saw the beautiful disciples coming out from the same treasure as Shen Yuan.
He pointed his finger at Shen Yuan, his hand trembling, “Wh-what were you doing inside the room all alone with these female disciples that you are all tattered now?”
All the female disciples blushed as they heard his comment, while Shen Yuan felt his eye twitching. He put away the sword he was still holding and looked straight at Shan Bo.
“You ungrateful fuck! You forgot how I saved your life, and now you want to attack my fellow disciples as soon as you saw me go missing?” he asked in a cold tone, not minding his tattered clothes, as only he knew what he had survived with them.
Shan Bo laughed out of rage, “I have not seen anyone as shameless and audacious as you, Shen Yuan! Robbing us in broad daylight yet claiming to have saved our lives!”
Shen Yuan raised an eyebrow, “Hoh? Then would you guys have survived if I hadn’t intervened and given you all the detoxification pills? I even left weapons for you guys.”
Shan Bo felt his chest burning with rage as he shouted at the top of his lungs, “MOTHERFUCKER! Even children don’t use them in our sect, and you expect us to fight the beasts in this Mystique Realm with them??”
Shen Yuan shrugged his shoulders, “It’s better to fight with a weapon than without a weapon, no?”
Shan Bo erupted, “ENOUGH! ATTACK THIS BASTARD!”
All the clan members took out their weapons as a few of them pulled their bowstrings and took aim at Shen Yuan before shooting at him. freewebnvel.com
Shen Yuan smiled as he felt his body much lighter than before despite his cultivation having dropped. He moved like the wind and dodged all the arrows.
“That’s all? Even I did better with the training weapons than you guys.” He teased them while dodging the arrows, which they continued shooting.
Shan Bo gritted his teeth seeing this as he took out two axes from his back and charged at Shen Yuan. “Attack at close range!” he shouted to his men as all the close-range fighters took out their weapons and headed toward Shen Yuan.
“Good, good. You guys truly helped me by coming over yourselves.” He chuckled as he stomped down on the ground, took out a spear, and jumped forward to meet with Shan Bo head-on.
“Let’s see how strong you are.” Shen Yuan shouted as he lifted the spear above his head before smashing it down on the ground.
BOOM!!
A shockwave was created as it knocked back most of the Ironwood Mountain disciples, while Shan Bo placed the two axes in front of him to withstand the pressure.
“HAHA, the fun is just starting.” Shen Yuan said as he jumped toward the archers in the back, once again smashing his spear on the ground and sending the archers flying back. They spat out a mouthful of blood as well.
Wan Ling and the others watched in awe as Shen Yuan dominated all the clan disciples alone.
