Journey to Slaughter God - C32

When Shi Ling heard this, he couldn’t help but look at the emblem on his right shoulder and his expression changed slightly. It was hard to imagine that this young man in front of him was actually a lieutenant general.

All of them stared at him with unfriendly gazes. Immediately, Shi Ling lowered his head to look at his own storage ring, but in the end, he clenched his teeth and handed it over to the young man. He said, “It’s just an ordinary storage ring.”

If the other party really wanted to snatch the ring, he would not be able to keep the ring with his little strength. At that time, not only would he be beaten up, he might even be dragged into the prison and lose everything.

At this time, the young man did not pay attention to Shi Ling’s words and directly took the ring away. Then, he used a technique to look through the inner parts of the ring, and found that apart from a few small cultivation resources, he did not find anything else. He looked at Shi Ling suspiciously, and said, “Are these items worth the risk for you to sit on such a high cliff?”

Shi Ling was rendered speechless. He couldn’t help but chuckle as he said, “The lowest level of cultivators are poor in resources. They can’t bear to give up even a little of it.”

When the young man heard this, he couldn’t help but sneer and return the ring to Shi Ling. As a general of the army, he naturally didn’t think much of Shi Ling’s belongings. He placed his hands behind his back and said, “My name is Mo Chen, what about you?”

Shi Ling hurriedly cupped his fist and bowed his head, saying, “Shi Ling.”

Mo Chen nodded his head, then looked in the direction that Yue Qingcheng left in, saying, “Today, you can be considered to have rendered a great merit.”

Mo Chen laughed, “When Lady Princess is in a bad mood, no one dares to get close to her. When she was standing on the cliff just now, although I wasn’t worried about her falling down, even if she fell down, she might not be injured. But if others saw it, wouldn’t that mean that my guards were unable to protect Lady Princess?”

Shi Ling could not help but let out a dry laugh. This was all he had to do. He then said, “I dare not accept your kindness. I only wanted to retrieve what I had previously.”

When Mo Chen heard this, he laughed. At the same time, he also nodded his head and said, “Very good. I even know that I’m an unimportant person.”

With that, he walked up to Shi Ling. He was half a head taller than him, looking down at him as he said, “Since you know that you’re a nobody, how could you dare say disrespectful words about being friends with the princess?”

However, Shi Ling lightly shook his head in response and said, “Could it be that the lieutenant is still unable to see through it? If I did not think of a way to stop her and really allowed her to injure me, I, as a bystander, would have to blame it for that. Thus, in order to stabilize Lady Princess’s emotions, I could only deliberately say those disrespectful words, and I hope that Lord Lieutenant would forgive me. ”

After he finished speaking, he took a step back and bowed towards Mo Chen. When Mo Chen heard this, he could not help but snort coldly and said, “Considering that you are only thinking for the princess, I might as well not investigate your disrespect. Men, drag him down and give him a flogging of twenty years!”

After which, he saw the guards walk towards Shi Ling, and Shi Ling was also stunned. Naturally, he knew how terrifying the whip was, and upon seeing Mo Chen turn his face to the side, Shi Ling swallowed the words he wanted to beg for. It was clear that the other party had come to cause trouble for him after seeing him and Yue Qingcheng staying together, so it was useless even if he begged him.

Shi Ling yelled, “Lord Lieutenant, are you not afraid of the Spirit Sword Sect’s questions when you punish the Spirit Sword Sect disciples as you please?”

Shi Ling knew that it was impossible for him to deal with these people, and he didn’t have the strength to deal with them either, so it was even more impossible for him to beg for mercy. Therefore, he could only move out of the Spirit Sword Sect to see if he could cause some misgivings. However, who knew, Mo Chen calmly said, “So what if I killed a lowly worker? “Does the Spirit Sword Sect still dare to fall out with me?”

As he said this, he waved his hand, and the soldier pressed down on Shi Ling’s body before dragging him away. At this moment, Shi Ling tightly clenched his fists as he stared at Mo Chen’s back, and his eyes immediately turned red, while he clenched his teeth. At this moment, Shi Ling had started to have a deep desire for strength, if he was strong enough, he would definitely make that bastard kneel down and lick his shoes for him.

Shi Ling, who had been dragged to the side, stared blankly at a torture device that had been assembled by a soldier. He then cuffed his own weapon. This torture device was similar to a beheading platform. Shi Ling’s hands were cuffed, leaving only his back.

With a ripping sound, the clothes on Shi Ling’s back were torn apart, revealing his skinny back. Next, a leather whip appeared in the hands of the guard behind Shi Ling.

When Shi Ling heard the sound, he clenched his fists. A blue light started to seep out of his eyes, and his pupils became faintly discernible. It seemed as if they could be released at any moment.

However, at this moment, Bai Xiaosheng suddenly spoke in Shi Ling’s mind, “Shi Ling, don’t resist. Let them fight!”

Shi Ling’s eyes widened as he thought to himself, “What do you mean?”

Bai Xiaosheng continued, “Believe me, don’t resist now. Let them beat you!”

Shi Ling was stunned for a moment. However, before he could say anything in his heart, he heard a soft smack, and immediately after, Shi Ling felt a heart-wrenching pain. The next moment, he saw a bloody wound appear on Shi Ling’s back.

However, before Shi Ling could finish yelling, another series of whipping sounds could be heard, and instantly, the entire mountain was filled with Shi Ling’s screams. However, before Shi Ling could finish yelling, another series of whipping sounds could be heard, and instantly, the entire mountain was filled with Shi Ling’s screams.

Mo Chen, who saw this scene from not too far away, let out a cold snort and said, “If next time I see someone who can climb the dragon or phoenix path, it won’t be as easy as merely 20 lashes. Do you understand?”

The surrounding crowd agreed in unison. In truth, Mo Chen’s words were meant for Shi Ling to hear, as if he was telling Shi Ling that if he dared to climb the mountain, he wouldn’t only be punished with 20 lashes, but someone even more pleasurable was waiting for him behind Shi Ling.

Immediately, he heard Mo Chen say, “Let’s go.”

With that, Mo Chen led his guards and left the place, leaving the dying Shi Ling lying on the ground. After a long while, Bai Xiaosheng flew out from his storage ring and whispered into Shi Ling’s ear, “Hey, Shi Ling, how are you?”

With great difficulty, Shi Ling crawled up from the ground and said, “He won’t die.”

As he said this, he leaned behind a rock, lifted his hand with difficulty, and took out a few Star Origin Fruits from his storage ring. He stuffed them into his own mouth, and chewed them in large mouthfuls.

The Star Origin Fruit was worthy of being called the healing panacea in the cultivation world. Shi Ling just took a few and the blood in the wound behind him stopped flowing. Bai Xiaosheng then asked, “How is it now?” Can we go now? ”

With great difficulty, Shi Ling stood up from the ground and said, “No problem.”

Bai Xiaosheng said, “That’s good. Before the Star Origin Fruit completely heals your injuries, quickly return to your original room.”

Shi Ling revealed a puzzled look, but still headed back to the service department. Along the way, the effect of the Star Origin Fruit became faster and faster, and gradually, Shi Ling felt that his back was no longer hurting as much.

Immediately, Shi Ling could not help but exclaim in wonder, “Star Origin Fruits are really a good thing. It’s only been so long, but my back doesn’t hurt anymore. Unfortunately, I only have seven or eight left. If I knew earlier, I would have bought more when I went to the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.”

While Shi Ling was walking, he said to Bai Xiaosheng, “If someone could refine the Star Origin Fruit into a Star Origin Pill, then it would be considered a healing panacea.”

Shi Ling couldn’t help but let out an ‘Ah!’ before turning his head towards Bai Xiaosheng, “Can the Star Origin Fruit also be refined into a pill?”

Bai Xiaosheng said, “Any plant that has spiritual energy can basically be refined into a pill. But whether or not it can be refined into a pill depends on the alchemist’s rank.”

Shi Ling paused for a moment and said, “In my entire life, I’ve never heard of a Star Origin Fruit being able to be refined into a pill. If it’s possible, I think it would require a super alchemist, right?”

Bai Xiaosheng acknowledged and said, “At the very least, there is no one in this tiny Nine Regions Empire that can refine it. If we want to find the Star Origin Pill, I’m afraid we have to go to the Peacock Grand Ming Empire to find it.”

When Shi Ling heard this, his mouth opened wide. There was actually no one in the entire Nine Prefectures that could refine this! Then how difficult would it be to refine such a pill? Shi Ling could no longer imagine it.

While the two of them were talking, Shi Ling had already returned to his room. At this moment, all the poison gas in the room had already evaporated, so it wouldn’t affect anyone. Shi Ling sat on his bed and said, “Okay, now tell me why you want me to get beaten up, right?”

Bai Xiaosheng said, “Alright, now look carefully.”

Bai Xiaosheng spat out a cloud of red air and attached it to Shi Ling’s ring. Then, a scarlet flame rose up from Shi Ling’s ring and instantly wrapped around his hand.

He immediately heard the ‘All Knowing Scholar’ say, “Now get off the bed and sit on the ground. The power of the yang fire is extremely strong and cannot be compared to the yin fire. It can burn anything that comes into existence.”

Upon hearing these words, Shi Ling hurriedly sat down on the ground. Looking at the flame in his hand, he asked, “What should we do now?”

Bai Xiaosheng said, “If you inject mana into it, the yang fire will instantly boil and envelop you. When that time comes, do not stop it, just like when you use yin fire to temper your body. Just use it to refine your body.”

Shi Ling’s eyelids twitched when he heard this. He had experienced the taste of Yin Fire when it was tempering his body. Now that it was Yang Fire, which was even more powerful, he did not know if he could withstand it. However, he clenched his teeth and poured his mana into it.

After Shi Ling let out a muffled grunt, he closed his eyes and endured the pain, allowing the yang flames to temper his body. He then saw that the clothes on Shi Ling’s body were being burned down at a speed visible to the naked eye. At the same time, the temperature of the entire room rose abruptly, and cracks began to appear on some of the wooden furniture.

At this moment, Bai Xiaosheng spat out a mouthful of white air and turned into a protective barrier, isolating Shi Ling from the room. The protective barrier was transparent, and one could see Shi Ling from the outside.

“Yin Yang Blood Spirit Fire, Yin Fire can incinerate one’s soul, will, and even sound waves and all other formless objects. Yang Fire, on the other hand, can burn away all metals, wood, water, fire, and earth, and other tangible items, and only by achieving a yin and yang equilibrium can one achieve the greatest power of this flame. Unfortunately, based on the current strength of Shi Ling, to reach such a level is a bit unrealistic.”

Bai Xiaosheng sighed and said to himself, “Forget it, haste makes waste. Let’s wait for his strength to increase before we speak about it.”

Time passed by quickly. Very soon, two hours had passed when Shi Ling’s eyes snapped open. After which, he stood up and let out a hearty laugh towards the sky.

At this moment, the muscles all over Shi Ling’s body stood out, giving off an explosive feeling. If there were any young girls here, they would definitely scream, because the current Shi Ling’s figure ratio was simply too great. He was the type of person who appeared to be thin while taking off his clothes.

At this time, Bai Xiaosheng flew over and said, “You’ve reached the strength of three raging bulls?”

Shi Ling nodded, looking excitedly at his hands, and clenched them tightly. This feeling of power made him want to find someone to have a good fight with. He then heard Bai Xiaosheng say, “Now do you know why I let you get beaten up by those bastards?”

“Yes.” Shi Ling nodded. “By whipping your body, you can toughen it. By tempering your body with yang fire, you won’t have excessive muscles, and at the same time, you can increase your strength.”

When Shi Ling heard this, he smiled and said, “It seems that I’ll have to go out more in the future?”

Bai Xiaosheng shook his head and said, “No need for that. Just think of a way to get yourself a Dragon Breaking Whip.”

Upon hearing this, Shi Ling only nodded his head before hearing Bai Xiaosheng’s words, “Let’s go.”

“Where are you going now?” Shi Ling asked.

Bai Xiaosheng flew outside, and said, “Didn’t that Zhang kid come to look for trouble with you last time? I don’t think it’s safe in the Spirit Sword Sect anymore. ”

Shi Ling said, “Do you want me to hide outside?” However, the Spirit Sword Sect rules state that disciples cannot go out as they please. ”

Bai Xiaosheng said, “Then you wouldn’t have gone to the pavilion to take a mission. That way, you could reasonably leave. Moreover, after completing the mission, you would even receive a gold coin. Why wouldn’t you do that?”

At this moment, Shi Ling slapped his own head and said, “That’s right, why didn’t I think of that?”

Bai Xiaosheng said, “Didn’t you always want to learn the rank 2 martial art, Shadow Killer, in the brick wall? Furthermore, when I am teaching you how to use the Ying Hua Pupil, you don’t need to worry about being disturbed. ”

Shi Ling immediately became excited. He first took out a set of clothes from his locker and put them on, then rushed to Bai Xiaosheng. He grabbed him and said, “Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go now!”

With that, Shi Ling ran towards the pavilion.
