Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated

When Hao Ren returned to East Ocean City from Fifth Heaven, it was drizzling.

Zhen Congming hurried back to his elementary school. After skipping half a day of class, he wasn’t afraid of the teacher scolding him. Instead, he worried that Wu Luoxue from the neighboring class would change her impression of him!

Xie Yujia and the Lu sisters went back to their respective dorm rooms to rest while Hao Ren returned to his dorm room.

As the Nine Dragon Palace mission with Su Han was drawing near, he would be a burden to her plan if he didn’t improve his realm. Standing on the balcony, Hao Ren saw Zhao Yanzi sitting in class, dozens of meters away.

Zhao Yanzi was still oblivious of the fact that Hao Ren’s dorm room faced her school on the other side of the wall, and he could see her sitting next to a window.

The misty drizzle made LingZhao Middle School quite beautiful and quiet.

Turning back to his room, Hao Ren climbed up to the upper berth and sat cross-legged. Zhao Jiayi and the others had gone to class, and Hao Ren was alone in the dorm room, cultivating without interruption.

The intensity of nature essence in Ethereal Summit was about four times greater than before, and Hao Ren had stored some of it in his body. However, his cultivation speed was much slower than before.

With no flowing nature essence in his body, it took lots of time and energy to convert the little amount of nature essence that he had stored.

The Sun had set, and the Moon rose. Zhao Jiayi and the others returned to the dorm room and went to sleep after some boisterous exchanges.

Hao Ren regulated his breathing while inhaling and exhaling the natural essence little by little. Suddenly, he understood Zhao Kuo’s difficulty to start cultivation again after his failure in the Heavenly Tribulation.

After cultivating for one night, he had accumulated only a little bit more of nature essence, barely reaching Kan-level.

While the guys in his dorm room were still sleeping, Hao Ren ran into the school and practiced the fundamental boxing techniques several times before going to the academic building for class.

The cultivation process was tedious, and his cultivation speed would have been slower if not for the nature essence that was stored in his necklace.

In the classroom, the Lu sisters were surprised to see that Hao Ren had reached Kan-level. After all, the Poison Pill Plan had cleansed his body and gotten rid of all the impurities and nature essence in his body.

However, after practicing the fundamental boxing techniques, Hao Ren had comprehended the Heavenly Dao once more through martial arts, which unblocked all the acupoints in his body again and accumulated some nature essence in the process.

After the side effects of the Poison Pill Plan passed, Hao Ren’s realm would return, and this process was equal to cultivating for the second time!

In other words, the nature essence that Hao Ren cultivated now would increase by multiple folds when his old realm returned, and the new nature essence was going to become his origin essence, the most precious energy for cultivators!

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili looked at each other in surprise, but they didn’t tell him anything. It was the secret of Heaven Dao, and Hao Ren was lucky to achieve this.

Feeling like his nature essence could continue to grow, Hao Ren continued to cultivate in his four morning classes.

Although he didn’t break through to Li-level, he had reached peak Kan-level, which was equivalent to mid-tier Foundation Establishment Realm.

After the morning classes were over, Hao Ren went to the club office while holding an umbrella. He walked steadily on the uneven road with no water on his shoes.

If martial art masters had seen this detail, they would have known that Hao Ren was a true master!

The Vice President of the Club, Lu Qi, was in the office, and he immediately greeted Hao Ren.

“President, the information that you told me to gather is ready.” Lu Qi put a form before Hao Ren.

He looked at Hao Ren and was surprised to sense the aura of only Kan-level on Hao Ren, but he thought Hao Ren was suppressing his realm on purpose.

Out of the building, the drizzle continued. When Hao Ren put away his umbrella, no moisture could be found on him.

On the form were the requests of hundreds of club members. Lu Qi had categorized them into over 50 kinds, most of which were dharma treasures that could assist the cultivation process.

“Ok, I got it.” Hao Ren put away the form and asked, “How is the preparation for the calligraphy exhibition?”

“It’s scheduled in the lobby of the library next Tuesday. I’ve borrowed the place from the school,” Lu Qi answered.

“Ok.” Hao Ren nodded. He organized this club activity to put on a show for the school and to unite the members at the same time.

Undoubtedly, the Calligraphy Club would become the most powerful club in the school and the first unofficial club in the Dragon Tribe.

After walking out of the club office, Hao Ren went to find Yue Zilong.

Yue Zilong signed his name without speaking after glancing at the form that Hao Ren handed to him before giving it back to Hao Ren.

These items on the form were neither valuable or ordinary; they were beneficial to cultivators around Zhen-level.

Seeing that Yue Zilong was in a bad mood, Hao Ren didn’t strike a conversation with him. With the signed form in his hand, he turned to leave the office.

“I was about to return to the Dragon God Shrine when the news came that Wang Shitong, the metal-elemental dragon cultivator who came to East Ocean City, was killed,” Yue Zilong said suddenly.

“Wang Shitong…” Hao Ren was surprised.

“This old man who was at peak Qian-level had fought with Yue Zilong, but I remembered that Yue Zilong didn’t kill him,” Hao Ren wondered how the old man had died.

“Wang Shitong was an elder in the metal-elemental dragon clan and the Zixuan Cave Master. His death will certainly be reported to the Elders Council of the metal-elemental dragon clan. You must be careful,” Yue Zilong said lightly.

Yue Zilong didn’t know about Wang Shitong’s death until the second day, and he was astonished.

This metal-elemental dragon cultivator was not only a member of the Elders Council of metal-elemental dragon clan and the Zixuan Cave Master; he was also a disciple of Taiyi Cave Master.

Being one of the five top-tier caves, the Taiyi Cave had an extraordinary background. The Taiyi Cave Master had reached peak Qian-level more than 1,000 years ago, but due to some mystic techniques, he was still alive although he hadn’t entered the Heaven Dragon Realm yet.

Since the Taiyi Cave was almost the oldest branch in the metal-elemental dragon clan, the direct disciple of the Taiyi Cave Master was highly valued by the metal-elemental dragons.

Since Xu Ke hadn’t reached Qian-level or Kun-level, he wasn’t an official disciple of the Taiyi Cave yet; that was why Yue Zilong didn’t take him seriously.

However, Wang Shitong was an established disciple of Taiyi Cave, and his death in East Ocean City was a big deal.

The problem was that after his careful investigation, Yue Zilong couldn’t find the killer who was powerful enough to instantly destroy Wang Shitong, a peak Qian-level cultivator!

This was a powerful master hiding in East Ocean, and this person was probably more powerful than ordinary Soul Formation Realm cultivator! According to the intelligence from the Dragon God Shrine, Ms. Hong, who was also Lady Zhen, had returned to the Demon Sea after her trip to the Kunlun Mountain. It meant that it wasn’t her doing.

“Even the East Ocean Dragon Palace couldn’t do it. Maybe Lu Linlin and Lu Lili could kill Wang Shitong, but they had no motive, and they couldn’t kill him so quickly…” The more Yue Zilong thought about it, the more alarmed he was. This was why he decided to remain in East Ocean City!

He told Hao Ren this news to remind him to be careful. On the other hand, he wanted to see Hao Ren’s reaction to this news.

However, Hao Ren’s reaction convinced Yue Zilong that he had nothing to do with Wang Shitong’s death.

“Ok… I got it.” Hao Ren thought for a while and backed out of the office.

He wondered how Wang Shitong had died in East Ocean City.

“Maybe he had tried to charge at the Heavenly Dragon Realm and failed…” Hao Ren thought.

After walking out of the administration building, Hao Ren realized that there were only a few students on the road due to the drizzle.

Hao Ren put up a red energy sphere with all his nature essence of Kan-level. He wanted to go to the Dragon God Shrine to take the things on the form which was signed by Yue Zilong, afraid that the latter would go back on his words.

“Little White!” Hao Ren called out.

It was quiet around him, and he wondered where Little White had gone to on such a rainy day.

The golden shield slowly came out of Hao Ren’s necklace. Although the nature essence intensity in the necklace was slightly higher than outside, it wanted to get some fresh air.

“Take me to the Dragon God Shrine!” Hao Ren said to it.

The golden shield circled Hao Ren a little, and it seemed like it was trying to understand Hao Ren.

Hum! It lowered itself slowly.

Hao Ren tried to step onto the golden shield carefully. Without injecting any nature essence, he pointed to the West, and it flew in that direction instantly.

Standing at the window, Yue Zilong was a bit surprised when he saw that Hao Ren could control this supreme spiritual treasure.

Supreme spiritual treasures would choose places with proper cultivation conditions and liked freedom; they would only submit to powerful cultivators!

In fact, Hao Ren didn’t expect the golden shield to listen to him.

Upon second thought, he guessed that it must have felt bored after staying in the necklace for so long and wanted to get some fresh air outside.

Meanwhile, Lady Zhen’s purple gold hairpin was lying quietly in his necklace, and the golden shield couldn’t escape from it. Therefore, flying around with Hao Ren was its way of relaxing.

The supreme spiritual treasure’s flight speed was much greater than Little White’s, almost the same as that of the purple gold hairpin. The only difference was that Hao Ren needed to inject metal-elemental and water-elemental nature essence to drive the purple gold hairpin, but the golden shield flew by itself, not needing Hao Ren’s nature essence.

Anyway, with Hao Ren’s current realm, he couldn’t use the supreme spiritual treasure. Not even Qian-level cultivators could use it.

After its lonely life in the past hundreds of years, the golden shield had a good time with Little White, and it allowed Hao Ren to step on it for the sake of Little White!

Boom!

The golden shield flew past the edge of the Kunlun Mountain and then shot up into the sky.

The black token by Hao Ren’s waist activated automatically, and he flew into the array formation of the Dragon God Shrine successfully!

Hum… After changing to the size of a palm, the golden shield didn’t enter Hao Ren’s necklace. Instead, it hovered around Hao Ren’s ear.

“Sir, please put away the dharma treasure,” two level 2 inspectors who were standing at the gate of the Dragon God Shrine said to Hao Ren.

Although Hao Ren showed a low realm, the token at his waist showed that he was a level 3 inspector, so the two inspectors on duty didn’t dare to scold him.

Before Hao Ren could speak, the golden shield suddenly released four blinding golden lights, and the two level 2 inspectors who tried to block Hao Ren felt weak at their knees before stumbling back three steps.

The golden shield liked the intense nature essence in the Dragon God Shrine, and no one could block it!

It was about to fly in when it saw the thick pillar in the center of the great hall, and it began to shiver.
