I Have A Special Cultivation Talent Novel - Chapter 166
Chapter 166: Golden Core
Chapter 164
“I have heard the elders in the branch say that the outside world is very big.”
“It’s too big to imagine, far beyond Pulao Kingdom and the Eastern Ocean.”
“According to the rules of the clan, only Golden Core cultivators have access to this information.”
“And not even the Jiang family has this kind of access.” Jiang Lin said and sat on the bow of the ship while drinking spirit wine.
At this time, the tower ship had set a course to the south, its direction towards Crescent Moon Bay.
The tower ship traveled without any issues. It was very smooth sailing and their speed was fast.
“Obviously, this is the clan deliberately blocking any kind of news.”
“Either the outside world is crazy, or the outside world is wonderful.”
Chen Jingzhai said while drinking, with a wine calabash in hand.
…
The wine calabash in his hand was the one that was exchanged from the Wine Celestial lineage.
However, there was a Grade 4 ice soul stone inside.
The spirit wine that poured out from it was ice cold. But more importantly, the stone could temper the wine calabash itself.
Inside, there was also the blood from a variety of Grade 4 sea beasts. The wine that was being made from it was mellow and fragrant.
If this brew was drunk by cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Plane, they would not be able to tolerate its potency and would be drunk immediately.
But for Chen Jingzhai at this time, it could be drunk casually as a beverage.
“Probably crazy.”
“If it is really wonderful, the clan would not have settled in Pulao Kingdom.”
“Actualy Little Master-Uncle, each branch has Golden Core disciples.”
“Above the inner disciples, there is actually something called elite disciples.”
“According to the standards of the clan, it is the realm of the Golden Core Sage.”
“If the Core Plane could be reached within a hundred years, the elite disciples may be promoted to direct disciples.”
“The direct disciples cultivated the same as us; they have also inherited the sky scriptures.”
“The difference is that we cannot get the support of the clan,”
“We have to earn everything ourselves, but direct disciples can have their pickings of the magic treasures.”
“And they can also use the clan’s power to plot for more resources.”
“Hahaha! Little Master-Uncle is a direct disciple, that’s why we are so jealous.”
Jiang Lin seemed to be drunk and seemed to be using his state of drunkenness to speak his mind.
Although he approved of Chen Jingzhai, he, like the other inner disciples, was still envious of him.
They didn’t care so much about his seniority as the Master-Uncle; the issue was the direct disciples.
Fortunately, the Master-Uncle was different.
Everything he had today was all fought for by himself, all along the way.
Otherwise, Chen Jingzhai may not be acknowledged by the rest even if he was the Number One at the battle forum.
“Where are these Golden Core disciples?” Chen Jingzhai asked without sounding even a little bit surprised.
“Yes! Where are they?”
“The Number One in the last battle forum was senior brother Jiang Liuyun.”
“Where is he?”
“Where is the eldest senior brother from Daoxuan Peak from a hundred years ago?”
“And Zeng Wangbei, where is he?”
“Where is our eldest senior brother from the Wine Celestial lineage?”
Jiang Lin stood up and shouted these questions loudly towards the ocean, as if to vent all of his dissatisfaction.
The problem for the Little Master-Uncle was also his problem. Where were those people?
He didn’t have the answer either!
Not only him, but none of the rest of the disciples knew. All they could do was speculate amongst themselves.
After a long time, it was enough to make people go mad.
Chen Jingzhai kept on drinking the spirit wine, his expression one of great indifference.
In reality, there were many things that, when they thought about carefully, they could see that something was not right.
In the branch, there were Golden Core elders and deacons, but no Golden Core disciples.
Everyone said that the disciples had gone down the mountain, but none of them could not be found in Pulao Kingdom.
Including Zeng Wangbei.
Chen Jingzhai waited three years in Donglai County, but did not see any disciples from Daoxuan Peak.
There were news from both Sun Changrong and Li Yifei, but Zeng Wangbei’s whereabouts remained unknown.
He went down the mountain earlier than everyone else, but in the end, there was no trace of him.
Chen Jingzhai once asked Sage Qing Mu, but the answer he got was vague at best.
Now that he thought about it, Sage Mo Bei probably came over on purpose. All the answers they sought were probably with Lin Hai.
Chen Jingzhai understood the clan’s way of doing things very well.
After all, he had only been in the Beginning Foundation Plane at that time. No matter how good he was, he was still just a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Plane.
Any amount of questioning was nothing more than a waste of time, not to mention would only arouse suspicion.
But it was different now. Chen Jingzhai felt that after returning to the mountain, he would be in more of a position to demand for an answer.
Jiang Lin drank too much, but did not throw a tantrum. Instead, he fell asleep directly on the floor.
And he was sound asleep. It seemed that he had been unhappy for a very long time.
Chen Jingzhai didn’t pay any attention to him now, but stood on the tower ship, watching the sunset in the distance.
Two days later.
The wind and the rain were blowing, but the tower ship was moving through the rain with unabated speed.
The speed of the tower ship could no longer keep up with Chen Jingzhai’s demand.
But he did not use other magic treasures, nor did he make changes to the tower ship.
Sometimes, it was a different sensation to move slowly. They still had plenty of time to spare.
“Little Master-Uncle, there is a response to the transmission!” Jiang Lin happily ran upstairs from downstairs.
“Oh?” Chen Jingzhai looked away from the window, slightly surprised. “Who is it?”
“I can’t confirm the identity for the time being, it’s too far away,” Jiang Lin replied. “But based on the direction, I’m sure it is someone in the Tempest Ocean region, and they are going back and forth at the edge of the region.”
“It seems that they might be in trouble.” Chen Jingzhai waved his sleeves and asked the boatman to divert the course.
In the wind and rain, the tower ship veered towards the east and sped towards the Tempest Ocean.
Three hours later, the tower ship reached the boundary of the Tempest Ocean region at full speed.
The Tempest Ocean was already within sight.
Unlike the calm waters of the Eastern Ocean, the Tempest Ocean was cloudy all year round.
Among the dark clouds, there was lightning and thunder, and the water was choppy.
This violent momentum alone was enough to scare anyone who came near.
Ordinary cultivators would not have the courage to enter this region.
But at this time, there were cultivators fighting at the edge of the Tempest Ocean.
Flames erupted from time to time in the air, and there was sword vapor that ripped through the dark clouds.
After a few collisions, they began chasing each other again.
Seven streamers of light were flying in the Tempest Ocean, chasing after each other with undisguised murderous intent.
“It’s Master-Uncle Meng!”
Jiang Lin, who was on the tower ship, called out instinctively.
The speed of the stream of light was too fast, and he could not tell who was who.
But the means of communication from the clan was clearly visible.
The clan tokens possessed by both him and Chen Jingzhai were flashing with light.
It was enough to prove the person’s identity.
And Master-Uncle Meng was his guardian!
A stream of light suddenly rushed in the direction of the tower ship, and in a blink of an eye, it leaped over the boundaries of the ocean.
“No!” Seeing this, Jiang Lin’s expression changed immediately.
There was a vexed look on his face; he shouldn’t have made a sound.
The only person who could chase Master-Uncle Meng had to be a Golden Core Sage. Wouldn’t that person hear him from a distance?
“Don’t panic!” Chen Jingzhai had a look of indifference, “You go in first!”
“Little Master-Uncle?” Jiang Lin’s face tightened, “What about you?”
“Just trust me!” When Chen Jingzhai finished speaking, he took a step forward.
He floated in the air and waved his hand to shrink the puppet tower ship and stored it in his hair.
After all this was done, that stream of light had already revealed its true form. It was a man with red hair, someone with a burly physique.
The man seemed to think that Chen Jingzhai was going to run, so he struck directly from the air.
Giant hands that were formed by the burning flames slammed towards Chen Jingzhai’s head like a mountain.
In the air, there was a cloud of white steam hovering over the sea.
The flaming hands were extremely hot, but also extremely fast.
Chen Jingzhai merely raised an eyebrow and ignored the flaming hands. Instead, he was looking in the other direction.
An stream of light that was being chased before also flew out.
At the moment when the giant flaming hands came down, the man appeared right in front of Chen Jingzhai.
Bang!
The flaming giant hands burst open by an invisible force. Specks of flames turned into wispy traces and fell down. After spreading, they fell into the ocean and quickly vanished.
A hint of fragrance sneaked into Chen Jingzhai’s nostrils, causing his nostrils to contract slightly.
“You shouldn’t have come here,” a cold voice pierced into his ears, without any emotion.
“You are my guardian, how could I leave you?” Chen Jingzhai smiled and said, “Senior sister!”
Standing in front of him was none other than Su Qinghuang.
She was his secret guardian, the senior sister who disappeared after he returned from the deep ocean.
“I can’t protect you!” Su Qinghuang wore a red robe and spoke the truth plainly.
The opponent had four Golden Core Sages, while they only had three Golden Core Sages on their side, including her. One of them was also injured. They were barely hanging on in the fight.
“Then it’s my turn to protect my senior sister,” Chen Jingzhai smiled lightly.
Just as Su Qinghuang was about to say something, the burly cultivator with red hair in front of them struck again.
The man opened his mouth and sprayed, as a dark red fire dragon came out with a stench. With sharp teeth and claws, it rushed towards the two of them.
This fire dragon was lifelike, even the scales and whiskers were without any flaws.
Just the aura that came out from it was enough to alarm Su Qinghuang greatly. Her visage changed drastically; she was ready to fight to the death.
But at this moment, Chen Jingzhai passed by her and rushed directly at the dark red fire dragon.
Under Su Qinghuang’s disbelieving gaze, Chen Jingzhai burst out with an aura that far surpassed the cultivation level of the Foundation Establishment Plane. This aura was even more powerful and ethereal than his opponent’s.
Calmly, Chen Jingzhai made a fist, then swung it, as a violent and concentrated power exploded from his fist.
The lifelike dark red fire dragon exploded in midair. Like a gust of wind blowing, the stench and residual flames blew in the opposite direction towards the red-haired cultivator instead.
