Chapter 141 Conditions for Becoming Dark Night Son

Chapter 141: Chapter 141 Conditions for Becoming Dark Night Son"Should we send someone to capture Ling Chen now?" Xia Jiuyou’s face revealed a trace of worry. Ling Chen’s cultivation speed was on par with Biluo, who possessed a Sacred Body, making him feel a hint of threat. The State Preceptor shook his head and said, "There’s no need for the moment. I’ve already had the Ghost Guard make contact with him. Your Majesty can rest assured that even with a Sacred Body, it would take some time before one could become a King of the Palace Mansion Realm." Hearing this, Xia Jiuyou slightly nodded but still admonished, "Then make sure someone keeps a close eye on Ling Chen. We must not let him grow stronger!"

Just one Dark Night Son was enough to give him a headache. If there were another Sacred Body, it could truly threaten the position of their Xia Family in the Great Xia Royal Family. "Alright!" The State Preceptor nodded gently. The appearance of such a peculiar constitution in the Great Xia Dynasty was worth his study! How could he possibly capture Ling Chen now? ... The following day. Ling Chen cultivated Divine Soul Telekinesis for an entire day. As night fell, he left the True Martial Academy alone and headed straight to the Drunken Immortal Tower. Piano Girl had been staying in the Drunken Immortal Tower for some time. She had already given instructions, so as soon as Ling Chen arrived, he was led by a maid to Piano Girl’s room. "Young Master Ling, have you made up your mind?" After taking a seat, Piano Girl looked at Ling Chen with a hint of joy in her beautiful eyes. She initially thought she would have to wait here for a while, but Ling Chen had come to find her so quickly. After all, people from Dark Night had attempted to assassinate Ling Chen twice. If she were in his place, she probably wouldn’t agree so easily. "Yes!" Ling Chen nodded firmly, looking at Piano Girl, and said, "I am willing to join Dark Night, but I hope to become a Dark Night Son." Simply joining Dark Night, becoming an ordinary assassin, wouldn’t entail protection from powerful cultivators. Only by becoming a Dark Night Son, a possible future successor, would one receive focused protection. The old woman following beside Piano Girl was likely a very strong cultivator. Even with his keen senses, he could not detect this person’s cultivation level. But he knew that this old woman was definitely a high-level cultivator of the Primordial Pill Realm! Hearing his words, Piano Girl’s smile grew even richer. "Ling Chen, Piano Girl is very pleased to welcome Young Master’s joining." Piano Girl looked at Ling Chen, then her tone shifted as she said, "While Young Master’s talent is good, becoming a Dark Night Son is not so easy." "Piano Girl, I understand what you mean. You only need to tell me explicitly how to become a Dark Night Son!" Ling Chen nodded. He wasn’t so conceited. After all, he had only shown his strength and Spirit Art talent, not his cultivation talent. For a cultivator, cultivation talent is the most important. Because talent represents future achievements. Hearing Ling Chen’s straightforward question, Piano Girl nodded in satisfaction and said, "To become a Dark Night Son, one must usually join a mission with other cultivators eligible to become a Dark Night Son. Only the one who successfully completes the mission can become a Dark Night Son." "No problem." Ling Chen nodded. The selection process for Dark Night Sons was different from that of the True Martial Academy and did not prioritize cultivation talent. This was satisfying to him. "The next selection ceremony for Dark Night Sons will be held in three months. If Young Master Ling wishes to become, then make sure not to miss it." Piano Girl smiled. "That’s fine." Ling Chen smiled. Piano Girl continued, "Of course, to obtain eligibility for the selection of Dark Night Sons, you need to meet three conditions." "The primary condition is that one’s cultivation level must be within the Spirit Sea Realm!" "Secondly, one must be below the age of thirty!" Ling Chen nodded slightly, as he met all these conditions. "The third, and the most difficult one, is to complete an assassination task, which is to kill a Cultivator of the Primordial Pill Realm!" "Kill a Cultivator of the Primordial Pill Realm?" Ling Chen’s eyes couldn’t help but sharpen. For a Cultivator at the Spirit Sea Realm to kill one at the Primordial Pill Realm was not an easy feat to achieve. After all, the Spiritual Power of a Cultivator at the Primordial Pill Realm was much more robust and condensed than that of the Spirit Sea Realm. To fight someone beyond one’s level, one would generally have to rely on a more powerful Spiritual Weapon or Heavenly Spirit Technique! At the same time, one’s cultivation level cannot be too low; typically, it must be at least at the ninth layer of the Spirit Sea Realm. Only by wielding a powerful Spiritual Weapon and practicing the Heavenly Spirit Technique can one kill a mighty cultivator of the Primordial Pill Realm! A Primordial Pill Realm strong practitioner generally possesses a lower-grade Spiritual Weapon, and only with a medium-grade Spiritual Weapon would they stand a chance in battle. And, by deploying the Heavenly Spirit Technique, one may have the chance to kill a Cultivator of the Primordial Pill Realm! "Is the Heavenly Spirit Technique so easy to cultivate?" Ling Chen asked. Even the super Spiritual Body geniuses in True Martial Academy rarely managed to successfully cultivate the Heavenly Spirit Technique—could it be that the cultivators recruited by Dark Night have exceptional talents? "The Heavenly Spirit Technique, of course, is extremely difficult to cultivate." Piano Girl said with a smile. However, remembering that Ling Chen seemed to have used the Heavenly Spirit Technique, her expression became somewhat complex. She calmed herself slightly before continuing: "Most of the cultivators who are qualified to participate in the selection ceremony of Dark Night Son have been suppressing their cultivation at the Spirit Sea Realm for a long time, focusing on cultivating the Heavenly Spirit Technique!" "I see." Ling Chen nodded. If the cultivators participating in the selection of Dark Night Son could all cultivate the Heavenly Spirit Technique, the Great Xia Royal Family would have been overthrown long ago. To this approach, Ling Chen could only say it was not a wise move. It could even be said to be putting the cart before the horse. After all, a cultivator’s level is their foundation. Piano Girl paused for a moment and said: "Moreover, those strong practitioners of the Primordial Pill Realm are carefully selected, often those who have just been promoted to the Primordial Pill Realm not long ago!" "I understand." Now Ling Chen got the picture. Put simply, those candidates for Dark Night Son are only targeting the weakest Cultivators of the Primordial Pill Realm. "Piano Girl, so am I now a member of Dark Night?" Ling Chen asked. Piano Girl shook her head lightly, "Not yet. We have already verified your identity and there are no issues. However, to be cautious, you need to do one more thing before you can truly join Dark Night." "What is it?" Ling Chen asked with a smile. "Kill a Steward of Purple Cloud Commerce!" Piano Girl said with a smile. "Purple Cloud Commerce, Steward?" Ling Chen frowned. "Correct, consider it a declaration of your intentions! Although we have confirmed your identity and background, we still need to know your resolve in the struggle against the Great Xia Royal Family. Purple Cloud Commerce was established by the second princess of Great Xia, Xia Yubing. Only by killing a Steward of Purple Cloud Commerce can you sufficiently prove your antagonism towards the Great Xia Royal Family." Piano Girl explained. "What is the cultivation level of the Steward of Purple Cloud Commerce?" Ling Chen inquired. Since action was to be taken, it was natural to know the strength of the opponent. "Spirit Sea Realm ninth layer!" Piano Girl said with a smile. Ling Chen’s brow furrowed slightly. "What, do you think the opponent is too strong?" Piano Girl’s expression became serious. She had high hopes for Ling Chen and also hoped that he would join Dark Night. Furthermore, Ling Chen had once helped her. She did not want Ling Chen to give up joining Dark Night because of this.
