Chapter 83: The Shocked Three-Eyed Tiger

Although he held back from boasting about his glorious battle achievements, there were other aspects he could show off. Brother Cheng couldn’t resist his restless heart and performed the Five Elements Martial Dao once again. The effect was extraordinary, leaving everyone present in shock. Using spiritual power to form streams of fire lotus and ice lotus, this was something achievable in the Soul Splitting Realm. The main difference lay in the skill of control and the level of power. But what Jiang Cheng demonstrated was a seamless transition between the Five Elements, a level of skill they had never heard of before. In the eyes of the disciples, this was surely some sort of Immortal Technique. For a moment, exclamations of surprise and admiration filled the hall. Not just them, even the Three-Eyed Tiger suddenly appeared within the hall. Its eyes widened in utter disbelief. "Kid, how did you do that?" The disciples were baffled, unable to discern much, but it was different. Even though it was a demon king living idly, it was still a Saint Tier existence. It could clearly sense that Jiang Cheng was still using Martial Dao, not Immortal Arts. But the level of that Martial Dao was so high, it surpassed not just the normal King Level of the Celestial Fate Realm, but even the Saint Level. "Just did it, really, that’s just my power, you know." Jiang Cheng shrugged, with a look of "I just did a trivial little thing." "I understand you damn well!" "With your little bit of power?" The Three-Eyed Tiger cursed out loud. Jiang Cheng was currently at Celestial Fate Fourth Layer, which it could see at a glance. If a standard Celestial Fate Fourth Layer could do such a thing, then it had wasted its time as a demon king. Although that performance just now wasn’t powerful, it wouldn’t be useful in battle, the significance behind it couldn’t be ignored. "Yeah, just with me." Seeing how even the mighty demon king was stunned, Jiang Cheng felt extremely satisfied inside. Not easy at all. "The strength of this sect leader is something a mere little demon like you cannot fathom." "It must be some trickery, no way I’d buy into it!" The Three-Eyed Tiger’s mouth was unyielding; it would never submit to Jiang Cheng. Could it be an illusion technique? Impossible, my eyes are fine. Or perhaps achieved through some peculiar array or rune? No, that wouldn’t bypass me either. Honestly, its thoughts were indeed somewhat shaken. From the start, it had never taken Jiang Cheng seriously, but during this time at Feixian Sect, it repeatedly encountered things that defied its understanding. Like Jiang Cheng’s extraordinary breakthrough speed. When they first met, he was only Soul Splitting Fourth Layer, now he was Celestial Fate Fourth Layer. Like the ability to forcibly increase a disciple’s great realm, even if it were just Yin Xuer, it would pass, but even Shan Tai was promoted. That couldn’t be explained as mere coincidence. And now today... Could it be, this kid actually knows some Immortal Technique? It felt somewhat bewildered. After it left, everyone started talking. "Even Lord Tiger Demon can’t see through Sect Leader’s Immortal Technique?" "Seems like Sect Leader’s realm is much higher than it!" "Wasn’t that known from the start? Why are you all acting so surprised?" "Little Brain Axe often badmouths the Sect Leader, turns out it’s just jealous that the Sect Leader is stronger." "Jealousy won’t help; some people are just meant to look up to them!" The Three-Eyed Tiger flying far away could still hear the discussions, almost making it fall from the sky out of anger. Even Brother Cheng rarefied slightly blushed. Enough, enough, everyone really overpraised. The Three-Eyed Tiger is a demon king, several planes higher than him. However, there’s still some hidden delight in his heart. "By the way, Xiaohan, you’ve improved greatly in Xuanji Dojo last time; it’s worth rewarding." This was said from the bottom of his heart. Rewarding the disciples who advance quickly can motivate others to work harder in cultivation. A qualified sect should have a system of rewards and punishments. Brother Cheng was keen for them to advance quickly and earn him more points. Saying this, he took out a Tier Eight Spirit Sword from his ring. With the sword scabbard, everyone couldn’t see much, but they knew anything released by the Sect Leader should be at least Level 6. They couldn’t help feeling extremely envious. Luckily, Lin Ning was still in the Xuanji Map for ascetic cultivation, otherwise, even he might have turned green with envy. Ji Linghan gazed at the spirit sword, her heart pounding like a little deer on the run. Her focus wasn’t on the spirit sword, but entirely on the address. What did Sect Leader just call her? Xiaohan? Such an intimate address, could it be... Thinking to this point, her gentle cheeks flushed with two shades of red, a shy look that left Jiang Cheng a bit dazed. What happened? Why is this girl blushing over a sword? Could it be that my handsome face is less appealing than a shabby sword? "Ahem, here, take it." After saying this, he somewhat dejectedly placed the sword in her hand. "Thank you, Sect Leader!" Happily accepting the sword, Ji Linghan bowed gracefully. Later, under the envious eyes of other disciples, she drew the sword. Spiritual power entered, and she was instantly stunned. This sword... is a bit too strong. Stronger than she could imagine. She had used a Tier Five Spirit Sword before, and compared to this sword, it was like garbage among garbage. This was definitely more than Tier Six! "Sect... Sect Leader, this sword..." Seeing her look of shock mixed with bewilderment, Brother Cheng’s pretense facade reached a new height. He intentionally said with a calm expression: "Oh, it’s just a Tier Eight Spirit Sword, nothing worth mentioning." Wha, what? Tier Eight Spirit Sword? Ji Linghan almost trembled, finding it hard to handle. Soon after came an unprecedented sense of satisfaction and sweetness. When others received a maximum of Tier Six Spiritual Artifacts, she first got a Tier Nine Mist Jade Light Immortal Robe, and now a Tier Eight Spirit Sword! This was clearly a different treatment. It clearly showed how much more she meant to him. The other disciples went wild, the hall filled with strange cries and wails. "Oh my god, it’s actually Tier Eight!" "So envious, I can’t live like this." "How many treasures does the Sect Leader have?" "When I was bestowed a Tier Four Spiritual Artifact, I thought it was top-notch; now there’s nothing left of that." "I’m not convinced! Sect Leader is being excessively good to Senior Sister Ji!" "You have to hold it in, was Senior Sister Ji the first to meet the Sect Leader." These reactions greatly pleased Brother Cheng. No envy or jealousy, where’s the motivation? "Alright, alright, don’t be jealous." "As I said, these are rewards." "From now on, I will periodically reward the fastest cultivating disciples!" The other few Tier Eight Spiritual Artifacts and dozens of Tier Seven Spiritual Artifacts, he initially planned to give them out directly. Now it seemed, wasn’t it better to use them as prizes? Upon hearing this news, everyone cheered, gearing up with enthusiasm. But soon someone timidly said: "However, everyone has different talents, no matter how hard we try, our cultivation speed can never match Elder Ji and Lin Ning." Jiang Cheng waved his hand: "No worries, I’ll set standards according to each of your talents." "Alright, disperse now, everyone go back to cultivating hard." After the Xuanji Map’s synthesis this time, there were five more slots available; currently, besides Ji Linghan and Yin Xuer from last time, no other Split Soul Disciples could enter. In his view, this was a sheer waste of space.
