Natural Is The Key

Southern Border Shang Clan

Chin Hae was up next in the arena.

He was little bit nervous as his opponent was somewhat too ferocious.

His opponent had made a huge name for himself in the arena in little time. It was a big achievement according to Chin Hae.

What did his opponent think? It was meaningless. He was just using this great Shang Clan, super influence just as a stepping stone. To him these battles were meaning less, the only thing that excited him was Eternal Life.

It was non other than Fang Yuan.

Chin Hae entered the stage. No one made a racket or cheered it was like the atmosphere was dead. The audience already knew the result of this match between the rank 3 Chin Hae and rank 3 Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan's previous opponent had admitted defeat even before the battle had started and gave up on one of his precious gu worms.

People mocked him that he was a fool with no honor and a coward. But he didn't reacted much and said that he can get the gu worm again but he will not get a second life if anyone had a problem with him admitting defeat they could go and fight that monster themselves.

This calmed down the audience as no one wanted to go against Fang Yuan. They wee just here to enjoy.

Chin Hae was expecting some cheers as he had the courage to go against Fang Yuan but the audience were quiet. They knew that Chin Hae didn't wanted to give up on his rare gu worm.

"Defeat Fang Yuan brother Hae!!!" Shang Jin shouted from the stands. Of course, he was rooting for his friend.

Fang Yuan entered the arena, people started gossiping that about his feats.

Bai Ning Bing heard a few of them and chuckled. She was also among the crowd. She wanted to observe Fang Yuan to prepare some counter measures against him in the future.

She wanted to crush Fang Yuan and feel the excitement but Fang Yuan had left no loopholes.

She could just watch and anticipate for the worse for Fang Yuan.

The battel started with Fang Yuan sending out a blood red moon blade.

Central Continent

Chin Hwa was practicing a refinement path technique. It was a fire path refinement technique.

She had failed to utilize this technique for several weeks.

After failing she would suffer a backlash and would have to wait for two days of times before coming back to top shape.

"Why do I keep failing? It is just like senior sister told me…" Chin Hwa thought.

"This time I should get it right, if I fail again I will not have enough sect contribution points to exchange for the materials I need to practice and if I don't practice and get this technique soon I am bound to fail when the Refinement Path convention will arrive…it may look I have a lot of time but it is one in a life time opportunity I have to prepare early on that will be my chance to shine!" Chin Hwa was assessing.

Refinement Path Convection was a once in a life time opportunity to mortal gu masters. Chin Hwa was a mortal gu master and her path was refinement path so it was to be expected that she was looking forward to the refinement path convection.

Participating in refinement path convection was also one of her dreams since she started her cultivation journey.

Chin Hwa prepared to give the technique a try again.

Pant pant

Kojika was running with all her might, using movement type gu worms.

She was being pursued by Dagger Fang Jaguars. There were three of them.

But each had a rank 3 battel strength.

There was no way she could over power all of them with what little primeval essence she had.

Her injuries were also fatal. If she was hurt any further she would die.

Kojika was a lone cultivator in northern planes. (lol)

She was an orphan who was adopted by a kind gu master who also happens to be a lone cultivator. The gu master raised her and took care of her since she was just an infant.

He had never let Kojika felt any need. He fulfilled her every wish and gave all she asked for.

The gu master loved Kojika with all he had.

But fate was cruel and mortals had less life span, the gu master died leaving Kojika behind.

Now it looked like she was going to join him where ever he had gone to after death.

"Father I am ashamed…you told me to live on and live the life I wanted to but heaven is cruel and it looks like I will die today without a doubt…"

A dagger fang jaguar jumped on her but she used a wind blade and severed its one leg. It was a lucky shot. The injury was fatal and blood was pouring like a stream so it backed off to recuperate.

That was all.

Kojika had used the last of her primeval essence while using the wind blade.

But there were still two dagger fang jaguars left who were releasing limitless killing intent.

They wanted to rip apart Kojika and swallow her not letting anything go t waste.

Kojika knew that if a miracle does not happen she would absolutely die.

.........

Chin Hae was about to die by Fang Yuan's hands. Chin Hwa was also about to fail in the refinement technique and will be sure to suffer a deadly injury. Kojika was about to be eaten alive.

Coincidently all of this was happening at the same time.

They were all facing a 'mountain' of their own. They were desperate.

Suddenly something awaken in their minds. It gave a yellow aura and was made up of millions of small golden specks. It was a will, Jing Sheng's will. With the will appearing also came back memories of Chin Hae, Chin Hwa, Kojika at the same time and they all called out "master!"
