Chương 62: Using the cultivation ground

"Also, do not worry. I told you earlier, we're friends, unless you don't think so. And even if you don't, well, you don't really have a choice. We'll stand by you no matter what. We will definitely find a way to get rid of that thing. You will live a very long life life everyone else and we'll continue aimlessly pursuing the limits of cultivation." Long Feng added with a bright smile. Li Yue'er listened to him ramble on silently and her expression tightened up a bit.

She opened her mouth to speak but no words would come out. At the end, she simply nodded slightly and remained silent. Within the palace, Lord Yi Ming squinted his eyes, deep in thought. He tried hard to remember where he had heard the name 'Limitless blood assassin. When he did remember, he shivered slightly. Limitless blood assassin was a name that instilled terror into the hearts of many within the core circle of the Yihua Continent.

The only power which the Limitless blood assassin didn't dare go against was the supreme Yihua Clan. His identity and history was a mystery to all. He suddenly appeared sixty years ago with his incomparable talent and attained the spirit realm! He embarked upon the path of slaughter, and he began to annihilate clans and powerhouses. Soon, he became among the most terrifying assassin within the continent, mainly because no one had ever seen what he looked like. Anyone who did always ended up dead.

And once he appeared, there was bound to be bloodshed in his wake. Perhaps not even he knew the number of people and clans he had exterminated. Whenever he exterminated a clan, he would inscribe his name on the corpses of the people he had killed. Other than the fact that he was mysterious, the next most terrifying thing about him was that he was a strong spirit level cultivator! Within the entire Yihua Continent, a cultivator of his level was very rare!

Few powers in this Continent could boast to have multiple cultivators of his level. Lord Yi Ming began to sweat coldly. He could no longer retain his calm. The person that Li Yue'er had sworn to slice apart was the famous or infamous Limitless blood assassin! One of the top assassins of the entire Yihua Continent! He was said to have the potential to become an Exalted Spirit Emperor! Who was the exalted Spirit emperor? He was a person who was unrivaled against all cultivators in the spirit realm!

Yet, the limitless blood assassin's talent and potential could compare to that! Lord Yi Ming's first thought was to advise Li Yue'er against her thoughts of vengeance, but he decided against that. She didn't seem to know who the limitless blood assassin was, and her determination didn't seem to be something he could shake with mere words. He calmly waited within the palace, planning his next move.

The night was dark, brightened up by the billions of stars in the sky. The surroundings was completely silent and calm. Under this carpet of silence and darkness, two figures sat quietly outside a Majestic looking palace emanating a subtle wave of soul power. These figures were naturally Long feng and Li yu'er.

"Miss Li, we should return to the Elite court." Long Feng stood up and said slowly. A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation. Li Yue'er remained seated silently for a while, before rising to her feet slowly. Her dark blue eyes avoided Long feng's gaze as much as she could. As they walked back in silence towards the Elite court, Long feng suddenly paused. His gaze twinkled as he stared Into the distance.

"Miss Li, how far are you from the fourth Yin level?" He asked suddenly.

"A little more push is all I need. Why?" Li Yue'er asked, sounding less cold and unwelcoming than usual. Long feng's lips rose in a grin.

"We are going cultivate in a sacred cultivation ground, and for free!" He chuckled softly.

"Let's go." He beckoned to Li yu'er and they changed their direction, walking slowly along a deserted path. And this was within the Core court! He carefully spread out his soul power to make sure there was no one around and was ready to rush away with Li Yue'er the minute he sensed anything wrong. Li Yue'er was curious about where they were headed to, but she wasn't the type to speak, even if it was a question. So she followed silently.

Soon, she began to sense the natural energies around them increasing at a surprising rate. She soon understood everything. A few paces before them was a river flowing gently. The river was calm and peaceful, resonating deeply with the dark silent night. The weird thing about this river though, was that what flowed within it wasn't water. Instead it was a weird mist. A clear look revealed that the mist was pure natural energy!

This river was the same river Long Feng had run into previously and met several Core disciples cultivating within it. It was obviously created for the Core disciples using a massive amount of resources and probably even Yang crystals! Li Yue'er's eyes flickered as she stared at Long feng in shock. She was already aware that this was the Core court. They were already roaming around within the core Court which was a crime in and of it's own. And now, Long Feng was actually so daring!

He was planning to cultivate in the cultivation ground reserved for the Core disciples! That was the utmost challenge and disrespect to the core disciples! If he was caught, then not even Lord Yi Ming would be able to bring him away as easily as last time. Long feng stood there silently, his soul power spread out. He wanted to be sure that there was no core disciples around. Since the first time he stumbled upon this river, he could tell that it was an amazing place.

Such a priceless chance, he definitely wouldn't let such an amazing cultivation ground to pass by him. This could be called his first revenge against the Core disciples, especially Han Man. Long feng definitely wouldn't forget about Han Man's humiliation so soon. It was merely buried in his heart untill he was strong enough to seek his revenge.

"Miss Li, we have a short time, to cultivate here, but I'm not very sure how long. Absorb the energy as fast as you can." he whispered as he walked into the river. The mist was only able to reach his waist. Warm energy flowed against his skin, comforting him. The energy was so dense that he didn't even need to absorb it. The energy flowed into his dantian on its own accord. Li Yue'er was shocked, but she was also a decisive person.

She walked into the river and began to cultivate immediately, bit wasting any time overthinking. That would cause her to miss this opportunity. All the while, Long feng's soul power remained spread out to the limit, monitoring for the slightest movement. His mind was on high alert for any company. At the same time, he silently apologized to Yan jian in his mind. If he was here, then they would all cultivate together. Unfortunately, he was not fortunate enough for this golden opportunity.

He silently took out a green Jade from his void ring. This jade was the gift he had gotten for getting the first place in the Elite competition. It could absorb and store a huge amount of natural energy within it, though it could only be used twice. Long feng had already used it once, and it was taking a very long time to reabsorb the natural energy. This river was the best place for him to refill the Heaven absorbing jade! The jade began to automatically absorb the energies from the river.

Judging from the speed of its absorption, the jade would refill itself within a short hour. What he didn't know was that even the Core disciples only cultivated within this sacred cultivation ground for an hour every few days! It was otherwise a sealed ground even for them and it was already a known rule so no one would break it. That was because the energy within the river was temporary. It was man-made, which made it limited. The Mortal heaven sect didn't have enough resources to constantly strengthen the river.

Now, two youths, Long feng and Li yu'er ignorantly cultivated within the river for a good four long hours! They only left the river when the dark night began to recede, replaced by the shimmer of dawn. When they exited the river, they both noticed that the mist had reduced by a bit more than half and lost most of it's soft glow. He scratched his head at this anomaly and shrugged.

"It'll heal." If any core disciple heard this, they would probably skin him alive out of rage. When they left, the energy remaining within the river was less than fourty percent of how it was when they had arrived. That was mainly thanks to Long feng's insane speed of absorption. He absorbed the natural energies at twice Li yu'er's speed, yet he didn't make a breakthrough! This greatly baffled Li yu'er.

"Let's leave!" Long feng yawned tiredly. His dantian had been compressed to the limit by him. He felt totally refreshed and filled with energy. The good news was that Li yu'er broke through to the rank four Yin level, and Long feng's heaven absorbing jade was filled to the brim. Long feng had profited unexpectedly once again. He and Li yu'er silently left the Core court and returned to their pavilions respectively.

A long while later, an old man appeared by the river bank and stared at the depleted river before shaking his head in shock and staring in the direction of Long Feng and Li Yue'er.

"This kid. You couldn't just leave in peace. Ah, the Core court is going to get quite chaotic soon. That kid is nothing but trouble!" The old man turned out to be Lord Yi Ming! He shook his head again with an amused smile and vanished, leaving as though he never appeared. Unbeknownst to the duo, a silent storm began to brew up throughout the entire Mortal Heaven Sect after they left the Core court.
