Chapter 248: Chapter 248, Meeting the Sect Leader"Hmm?" Chu Ming slightly frowned, his gaze shifted. To confirm his suspicions, he faced the surrounding poisonous snakes without launching any attack. Crunch! Crunch! The sound of teeth shattering rang out, blood streamed everywhere, yet Chu Ming’s face lit up with joy because, in his perception, the power of Fire Essence within his body started to show signs of merging due to the stimulation from the attacks. He had long cultivated the "Fire Element Body Refining Technique" to its peak. The last time at the relics of the Transformations Sect, a hundred strands of Fire Essence nearly fused into a single Fire Essence but ultimately fell short. Without any hesitation, Chu Ming sat cross-legged in the cave of ten thousand snakes, golden light surged on the surface of his body, appearing akin to a Buddha. The power of Fire Essence within his body surged, instantly converging together under Chu Ming’s focus. This golden light, for the wandering poisonous snakes around, seemed to have a fatal attraction, causing them to abandon their targets and slither towards Chu Ming. "What’s this..." Lin Yuan was stunned. This marked the third year he had presided over the third stage of assessment, but he had never encountered a scenario like this before. The poisonous snakes in the cave of ten thousand snakes completely deserted their surroundings, all converging around Chu Ming, furiously biting his body. This scenario allowed other participating geniuses to reap unexpected benefits. The young talents who had been struggling all along suddenly felt their pressure ease dramatically due to Chu Ming’s intervention. "Elder, if Chu Ming encounters any mishap..." The recording Steward looked at the barely visible figure within the cave, hesitating to speak. Chu Ming’s situation had drawn significant attention from the most powerful ancestors, even sparking some alternative thoughts. If any accidents occurred during this third stage assessment, none of them could escape the consequences. "There shouldn’t be an issue..." Lin Yuan said uncertainly, his heart also drumming furiously. He had never encountered such circumstances. Boom! The golden light on Chu Ming’s body grew increasingly intense, resembling a rising sun illuminating all directions. Half of the cave of ten thousand snakes bathed in a golden hue. At this moment, the power of Fire Essence within Chu Ming was rapidly merging, wisps of golden light gradually converging into a single golden liquid, emitting scorching heat. Seventy percent! Eighty percent! Ninety percent! One hundred percent! Boom! A hundred strands of Fire Essence completely merged into a single entity of Fire Essence. At this moment, Chu Ming felt his body brimming with power. A casual punch now compared to his previous full-force strikes. Swish! Swish! As Chu Ming flexed his arms, the surrounding poisonous snakes were instantly shattered into a rain of blood, brutally killed. At the moment of Fire Essence formation, Chu Ming’s physical power reached three thousand Tiger Powers, with Qi capable of moving mountains and blood as potent as a dragon. Hoo! Chu Ming slowly opened his eyes, two faint golden beams flickered and vanished from his eyes, radiating authority. At this point, he had already cultivated the "Fire Element Body Forging Chapter" to the Realm of Perfection. "Time is up!" Lin Yuan withdrew from his state of shock, took a deep breath to compose himself, and said calmly. Simultaneously, a trace of bitter smile appeared on his face. Due to Chu Ming’s unforeseen circumstances, all poisonous snakes were attracted to him alone, significantly reducing the pressure on others, resulting in over ninety participants achieving full marks—an absurd outcome. "Elder, regarding the results of this assessment..." The recording Steward also wore a bitter smile, unsure of what to do. "Valid. Sometimes, luck is also a form of strength!" Lin Yuan said indifferently. Chu Ming walked out from the cave of ten thousand snakes, feeling unprecedentedly good, his body overflowing with a sense of power. As he moved, a faint membrane appeared on the surface of his skin, the embryonic form of a Power Rule Force Field. "What happened just now?" Just back with the Black Dragon City team, Zhu Hongxue asked concernedly, Zhu Qianqiu also turned his head, eyes filled with concern. "Nothing much, just a breakthrough in Body Refining Technique!" Chu Ming smiled and said calmly. The breakthrough in Body Refining Technique brought a slight sense of relief. "Monstrous!" Zhu Hongxue said. Although he had vaguely guessed it, Chu Ming’s confirmation brought an entirely different feeling. Time passed bit by bit, the sun moved across the sky, and the third stage of assessment was nearing its end. Only about five thousand geniuses could truly enter the Celestial Travel Sect. "Alright, the assessment is over. Next, those whose names are called will officially become Inner Sect Disciples of the Celestial Travel Sect. Others may leave immediately or tomorrow!" After the assessment, Lin Yuan said solemnly. The recording Steward beside him then began to call out names one by one. Those whose names were called were overjoyed. Entering the Celestial Travel Sect was akin to a fish leaping over the dragon gate for them. Meanwhile, teenagers who didn’t make it showed forlorn expressions. Without joining the Celestial Travel Sect, although they could still become powerful, the effort required would increase exponentially. "Zhao Tianlei, total score 263 points, becomes an Inner Sect Disciple of the Celestial Travel Sect!" "Wang Hao, total score 259 points, becomes an Inner Sect Disciple of the Celestial Travel Sect!" "Chu Ming, total score 300 points, becomes an Inner Sect Disciple of the Celestial Travel Sect!" Upon reading Chu Ming’s name, Lin Yuan’s eyelids twitched involuntarily. Chu Ming was the first genius to enter the Celestial Travel Sect with a perfect score since its founding. Even the Sword Demon of Ancient Sword Peak fell short in comparison. The gap in enlightenment could hardly be bridged effortlessly. Lin Yuan took a full half-hour to finish reading the names of all Inner Sect Disciples of the Celestial Travel Sect, his face solemn. "Zhang Hong, guide them to collect their Inner Sect Disciple clothing. Chu Ming, come with me!" Lin Yuan scanned the geniuses on the ground, finally fixing his gaze on Chu Ming, speaking calmly. "Yes, Elder!" Everyone’s gaze settled on Chu Ming, a hint of jealousy surfaced. An old man in white flew over from afar, landing steadily before the crowd. "Elder Lin!" "Elder Zhang!" Lin Yuan waved his hand lightly, a powerful Qi instantly erupted from his hand, sweeping Chu Ming off the ground towards him. "I’ll leave this to you, I am taking him to meet the Sect Leader!" Lin Yuan said. "Alright!" Zhang Hong glanced at Chu Ming and replied. Swoosh! Lin Yuan took Chu Ming, flying directly towards the depths of the Celestial Travel Sect, the wind blowing through his black hair. Meanwhile, his eyes curiously scanned the ground below. "When you meet the Sect Leader, speak carefully!" In mid-air, Lin Yuan cautioned Chu Ming. "Understood!" Chu Ming responded respectfully, his heart slightly agitated. The Sect Leader of Celestial Travel Sect stood at the peak both in martial prowess and authority within the sect.
