The Brilliant Fighting Master-Chapter 1632 - Hundred Spirits City

The East Ridge and the Middle River were far away from each other. In addition, there was a huge space in the middle that didn’t have a teleportation device.

Jiang Chen decided to shuttle through the Void in order to reach their destination in a short time. However, considering that Tang Fan’s stage was very limited, the tearing strength of the Void would leave him in pieces.

Thus, Jiang Chen started to impart to his apprentice his thoughts and experiences while they were traveling.

Not every master could be a good teacher. Practicing yourself and teaching others were two entirely different matters. Jiang Chen had never had an apprentice before, but he understood the importance of tailoring teaching methods to a student’s aptitude.

Although Tang Fan had been a three-star master, unfortunately, he only had two types of Qi in his constellation palace: Xuan Ming Qi and Xuan Qing Qi.

He might’ve been somewhat accomplished in the Flying Dragon Dynasty, but in the Middle River, he was merely average.

Tang Fan was aware of his weakness. He cared more about his future than his current state.

“Master, with only two Qis, is it true that my Martial Dais won’t be high enough to become a martial-grade master?” Tang Fan asked, feeling frustrated.

“Yes.” Jiang Chen was honest.

“Are the ultimate-level martial techniques and unique theurgies useless without a high level of Martial Dais?”

“Correct.”

Tang Fan’s heart sank, yet he still didn’t want to give up. It was a cruel reality that by the time a person reached the Star Venerable stage, his future achievements could almost already be predicted.

Tang Fan was dispirited. Even with three Qis and the opportunity to be exposed to a unique theurgy after becoming a martial-grade master, the power and strength he could bring into full play would still be limited.

“Nevertheless, there are boundless possibilities in the world. Nothing will remain the same forever,” Jiang Chen said.

Tang Fan was greatly inspired by Jiang Chen’s words. He said with excitement, “Yes, I will rebel against what Heaven has given me and change my own fate.”

Jiang Chen shook his head with a smile and said, “Changing your fate is fine. Yet it has nothing to do with rebelling against Heaven. Natural Law doesn’t pay any attention to us.”

Grinning, Tang Fan asked Jiang Chen, “Master, you must have a way, right?”

“Yes, but the course is incredibly difficult. It’s even more dangerous than my challenging the Heaven thunders before. It all depends on if you’re willing to do it.”

“Master, is it really dangerous, or are you only trying to make me take it seriously?” Tang Fan asked.

“I never play those kinds of tricks. Besides, things I consider dangerous are brutally terrifying to ordinary people.

Jiang Chen continued solemnly, “I can guarantee you a stable life because of your father. But if you want to become powerful, there is an unimaginable price that you will have to pay.”

Looking at Jiang Chen’s unusually somber face, Tang Fan stopped joking around and started to struggle with his thoughts and emotions.

To become Jiang Chen’s apprentice had been absolutely glorious. Everything he’d wanted could be achieved easily. But being Jiang Chen’s apprentice had also put him under a lot of pressure.

With a master as glorious as Jiang Chen, he’d be ashamed of himself if he was too mediocre.

It took him less than three days to make a decision.

Tang Fan went to Jiang Chen and stated that he wanted to become better.

“Good. I have an unnamed method. The quintessence of it is to crack before making progress. Every time you’re injured, especially under life-threatening conditions, as long as you can recover from it, you’ll be able to transform yourself gradually.

“The place we just flew by seemed to me to be Sunset Mountain, one of the forbidden lands of the former Realm of Divine Martial Arts. I want you to practice there for a year.”

“A year?” Tang Fan’s eyeballs almost fell out. A young guy from the East Ridge, he was going to stay a whole year in a forbidden land in the Middle River?

“No wonder you said it’s brutally terrifying.” Tang Fan sighed with exasperation. Already prepared for any hardship, he didn’t argue with Jiang Chen’s plan.

After passing on his method to Tang Fan, Jiang Chen took him back to Sunset Mountain.

“Go ahead. You need to finish the path you’ve chosen, even if it means you have to crawl,” Jiang Chen said.

“Okay.” Tang Fan nodded grimly.

“Here is a spiritual spell. If you really can’t hold on anymore, use it, and I’ll appear immediately. At the same time, it will mean that you have failed.”

Looking at the spiritual spell, Tang Fan felt a little more relaxed. But his face remained grave after hearing Jiang Chen’s last sentence.

“These are elixirs I usually take and some other miscellaneous stuff that should be helpful to you.”

Jiang Chen was not a sadist who would send Tang Fan up a mountain to die without any help.

Taking the spiritual spell and supplies, Tang Fan departed anxiously. He didn’t realize that Jiang Chen had shot a light into his body when he turned around.

After all, there were many dangerous situations when he wouldn’t have enough time to use that spiritual spell. Jiang Chen would never leave Tang Zhengyi without offspring.

In fact, he would rather make sure Tang Fan lived a safe and secure life with wealth and power. But Jiang Chen knew in his heart that it would destroy Tang Fan.

So he gave Tang Fan two paths so he could choose for himself.

“I hope you can accomplish remarkable achievements,” Jiang Chen thought to himself.

Soon after, he continued to fly toward the hinterlands of the Middle River.

Without Tang Fan, Jiang Chen picked up his speed and reached a major city that had a teleportation formation in a very short time.

“What a rich spiritual energy.” Jiang Chen could feel the difference as soon as he arrived at the city. The spiritual energy was coming from the city, instead of from the universe.

Glancing around the city with his holy awareness, Jiang Chen saw that the people there were mostly of the Spirit Race.

There were Spirits with all kinds of attributes, and of course, humans and other races.

It meant that the land had Spirit tribes living within it.

“Could it be that the Spirits from the Three Middle Realms settled here?”

Jiang Chen landed in the city and prepared to find out what was going on.

Soon, he’d learned that not only the Spirits from the Three Middle Realms were here, but the entire vast Spirit Realm had also merged with this place.

It inevitably made Jiang Chen worry about Ye Xue’s Icy Spirit.

The Spirit Realm tended to strongly reject races whose spiritual power had mutated.

Nonetheless, after asking around a bit, Jiang Chen realized that the Icy Spirit was one of the strongest among all Spirits nowadays.

The current Spirit races were much different than they’d been three years ago. They’d been growing at a rapid rate with numerous Venerable Sovereigns who’d brought glory to them.

Ye Xue was already almost half a Venerable Sovereign.

Whenever other races mentioned Spirits, they all thought of Ye Xue immediately.

It was mostly because of her divinely beautiful face and unapproachable demeanor.

Someone had said, “The whole world paled in color any time Ye Xue smiled.”

However, for three years now, no one had seen Ye Xue smile.

Some pursuers of Ye Xue had bet each other that whoever could make her laugh would be the winner.

Jiang Chen heard about all this in a teahouse.

“Do you know where this Ye Xue is currently?”

“Go west for 1,000 miles from the Hundred Spirits City. You will know you’ve arrived there when you see the first snow mountain,” the waiter who’d recounted the story about Ye Xue answered him right away.

“Good.” Jiang Chen stood up, obviously wanting to go visit Ye Xue.

“Another fearless yet ignorant person.” The waiter easily saw through Jiang Chen’s intentions, shaking his head lightly.

Countless people had wanted to win Ye Xue’s heart. They all returned disappointed.

The waiter definitely didn’t think the young man standing in front of him would be able to achieve anything, even though he exuded a pleasant feeling.

EHM? “Where is he?”

Suddenly, the waiter felt a breeze blew by him. Jiang Chen had disappeared.
