The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Head Chef Punishment – PART I
The child stood at the edge of a cliff in the Wudang Sect Bamboo Forest.A feeling of emotion swept through his chest when he finally saw a familiar and longed-for sight again after several days of living at the bottom of the ravine."The settlement of outer court disciples and worker disciples is what I've missed the most," Eadric Rong thought happily.How could it not be? He who had thought he would die, buried forever at the bottom of the abyss, was now given the grace by Heaven to see the Wudang Sect again, even though this was the most seedy part of the Sect."Chef Aldin Dong will be angry with me if I don't work in the kitchen today. He will probably report me to the elders who specialize in disciples who are considered worker disciples, and I could be expelled from the Sect."Thinking of that, Eadric Rong immediately ran in fear towards the Sect's kitchen.Since childhood, Eadric Rong had lived in the Wudang Sect as a disciple of the workers. He didn't know the world outside of
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Head Chef Punishment – PART II
Eadric Rong was just about to blend in, helping the other workers when Kitchen Chief Aldin Dong's voice suddenly rang out. He mentioned Eadric Rong's name."Eadric Rong... Little boy, don't you want to tell me something?"While speaking, Aldin Dong's hands and face did not look away from the stir-fried vegetables.Eadric Rong's face paled.He hurriedly approached Aldin Dong, put on a guilty face, and began to explain."Kitchen Chief Aldin Dong, I'm sorry I've been unable to work these past few days. I..."Aldin Dong's hands continued to stir the ingredients in front of him. White smoke and the fragrance of garlic mixed with vegetables spread through the nose while Eadric Rong tried to resist the temptation of hunger. For a few days at the bottom of the ravine, he had only eaten what he could, with the natural ingredients he found there."What's wrong with you?" Chef Aldin Dong's face suddenly became flat and expressionless, close to Eadric Rong's."I..." "I'm sick. Due to a mistake in
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Poor Vaelan Chen – PART I.
Eadric Rong was happy to be cutting down trees for timber in the Pine Forest at the foot of Wudang Mountain. What was once difficult, he now did with ease.He made a slashing motion using a woodcutter's cleaver while flowing pure air from his Pearl Core, and the goat-sized tree instantly fell.Joyful and radiant!"Once I have cultivation at the level of a Jade Tiger Swordsman, chopping wood becomes easier!"At that time, in the middle of the forest, Eadric Rong became increasingly aware of the benefits he would get after possessing the Pearl Core."If this is the case, there's no need to wait until midnight... I can finish this job quickly!"Eadric Rong instantly split the tree trunk into two large groups, shouldered the fuel resources, and climbed to Wudang Peak.+++Vaelan Chen is a court disciple cultivated at the level of a level three (peak) Crystal Dew Swordsman. A level that will soon increase to Jade Tiger Swordsman.As we know, the Lotus Continent has seven cultivation levels
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Poor Vaelan Chen – PART II.
Wondering because he was unfamiliar with Vaelan Chen, Eadric Rong felt this haughty-looking kid was acting too far-fetched. There are thousands of disciples in the Wudang Sect. And the genius category disciples number more than 500.This Vaelan Chen doesn't stand out, so Eadric Rong had no idea who he was."Excuse me, big brother. Let me pass this way." Eadric Rong's voice sounded polite.But Vaelan Chen remained silent. Instead, he chuckled for no reason, as if he hadn't heard Eadric Rong's voice."Brother, please step aside. The head chef is waiting for me for these two bundles of firewood," Eadric Rong said, still in a low tone.The custom in the Wudang Sect is to address those of higher status as elder brothers. This moment shows that Eadric Rong is already humble by looking up to Vaelan Chen.Feeling recognized for his status by Eadric Rong, Vaelan Chen asked with his face held high, assuming Eadric Rong was an ant."So you're named Eadric Rong?" Vaelan Chen asked. He was still u
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Whirlwind Tread.
When it is not yet dark, the time, according to Shi Chen's period, is You—representing when chickens look for perches in the afternoon.But Eadric Rong quickly completed a task that should have taken a long time, estimating that midnight should be the time for a child of his age with no cultivation ability.But what a surprise. He completed cutting down a tree the size of a goat's body and carried it in two piles to the sect kitchen ten times.Aldin Dong's face turned into complete shock. "What's wrong with this kid?" Aldin Dong wondered. "Did someone help him? Who helped you?" asked Aldin Dong persistently.If he knew anyone was helping Eadric Rong, he would be furious. But his little heart whispered, "Isn't this kid friendless? Who would be willing to help him?" He breathed a sigh of relief. This accusation wasn't going to happen."Helping? Help what? I don't understand," Eadric Rong replied. His face was confused.Aldin Dong tried to scrutinize and read Eadric Rong's face. But ther
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Teddy Huo and His Mission – Part I.
Aldin Dong fell silent immediately afterward.He felt ashamed because he felt this Eadric Rong was not simple. He guessed that Eadric Rong would become talented and famous in the future. Wouldn't it be beneficial if he cultivated a good relationship with him? Thinking again for a moment, Aldin Dong's face turned red."I'm so shameless... I'm sorry," he whispered to himself.There was a moment of silence, and the atmosphere froze.But the silence instantly melted away when Eadric Rong said, "I do!"The cold air turned warm. Aldin Dong's tense face disappeared.The two then made an appointment for the Whirlwind Palm Art training.Eadric Rong returned to his humble abode that day with a heart full of joy.He did not yet have any other martial skills besides the basic Swordsmanship—the Nine Step Wind Sword Technique—for which Eadric Rong was endlessly grateful in his heart."The road to the top is getting wider. I'll slowly climb to the Fire Peacock Realm and Bear Bones. That's when I'll
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Teddy Huo and His Mission – Part II.
Eadric Rong then realized the cause of Millie Xiao's concern when they met."Don't worry. As you can see, I'm fine!""Thank goodness then..." Millie Xiao wiped the sweat from her forehead.Everyone in the sect knew that the gorge at the edge of the Bamboo Forest was extremely dangerous. It was said that there was a bottomless pit. Only highly skilled experts could ascend and descend to the bottom of the abyss freely, and even then, they needed tools like hemp ropes. Therefore, it was only natural for Millie Xiao to feel anxious.Then, the two walked down the trading area.Millie Xiao was a well-off girl, while Eadric Rong was a poor orphan. That afternoon, Millie Xiao paid for all the food and drinks.At first, Eadric Rong was about to refuse all the treats, but Millie Xiao glared at him. Finally, he relented and accepted the food bought by the little girl. The two laughed and ran around in the simple trading center of Wudang Sect with happy hearts.Eadric Rong and Millie Xiao intende
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Eadric Rong's plan – Part I.
On that night, the half-crescent moon hung in the dark sky. Its gloomy light seemed to infiltrate between the bamboo branches that trembled in the wind. The softly whispering night breeze carried the fresh fragrance of the leaves, as if sending out a mysterious vibration of the lonely night on Mount Wudang.Teddy Huo was seen sneaking around, sword in hand. The weapon, when reflected in the crescent light, although gloomy, occasionally seemed to glitter.He wore a black sheet to cover his face. To complete his look, Teddy Huo wore a compact, tight-fitting all-black outfit that facilitated movement and made no noise when the wind rustled between the sleeves.Quickly, his figure was already at the door of Eadric Rong's hut.The sword was raised, ready to kill Eadric Rong like a professional criminal.As is known, Eadric Rong's hut is separated from his fellow student workers. This left Teddy Huo free to finish off the boy.Standing in front of that fragile wooden door, Teddy Huo was str

The Chase Under the Full Moon – Part II.
Intentionally, as if caught by the patrolling Zhonglu Sect troops, he made those with high body lightening skills jump onto the ridge and performed a chase action on top of the Zhonglu Sect's ridge.Teng-teng!A clanging sound rang out, creating a stir in the Zhonglu Sect."After him, book thief!" "He just came out of the library, breaking into our sect's martial arts!"Noisy voices could be heard behind the Black Bat King; he just sneered the whole time. Finally, when the Black Bat King arrived at one of the ridges of an enormous building, he left his pursuers far behind.But at that moment, a deadly sword aura suddenly filled the atmosphere."Enough of your cat-and-mouse games, Black Bat King!"A middle-aged man stood upright like a needle in the corner of the building's vast ridge.In his hand was a sword that glinted in the moonlight, giving off a majestic yet terrifying impression. In a low but firm voice, the figure spoke."Return our Zhonglu Sect's martial arts book that you st
The Chase Under the Full Moon – Part I.
After the incident at Yinyue Mountain Peak, the martial world was in an uproar. This event created a huge wave in society, causing whispers and discussions everywhere.Stories of the Black Bat King breaking into the library at Yinyue Peak were increasingly being told.Through word of mouth, the story continued to evolve, adding color and detail that fascinated listeners.In restaurants, tea houses, and various entertainment venues throughout the Wriston Empire, storytellers and traveling artists even openly performed operas about the Black Bat King's magic, vividly portraying how foolish the Silver Moon Sect was that he defeated.When the opera was presented on stage, the melodious voices of the singers and the agile movements of the dancers depicted all the scenes perfectly, showcasing the extraordinary ability of the Black Bat King.The Black Bat King was finally portrayed as a superhero, captivating many.Consequently, the White Stream side became even angrier.They continued to se
Morning on Yin Yue Mountain – Part II.
The Black Bat King's hand stretched out, pushing the window with a smooth motion that made no sound. The wooden latticed window covered in Hanzi paper suddenly turned to dust, as if touched by a supernatural force.Inside the Silver Moon Sect's library, an atmosphere of silence prevailed. The Black Bat King climbed the stairs with light steps, heading toward an old bookcase labeled "Secrets." The scent of dusty old books and weathered wood filled the air, creating a mysterious aura.He lit the lighter and began to scrutinize title after title of the Silver Moon Sect's copy of the Book of Knowledge. The small light from the lighter cast shadows on the wall, adding to the dramatic feel."Where is this Silver Shadow Sword Dance Style, one of the Silver Moon Sect's most deadly techniques, hidden?" he murmured, his sharp eyes scanning each book carefully.He searched for a long time but had yet to find the sword technique he wanted. The Black Bat King was nearly desperate.Just then, a par
Morning on Yin Yue Mountain.
Although confused, Manager Su nodded quickly. "Yes, Protector Guo. In the next two days at the latest, I will deliver copies of the maps directly to Sanqing Temple."In the back of his mind, Manager Su wondered: What was Protector Guo's purpose in collecting the maps of these two white sects?>>>> The night at the top of Mount Yinyue, the headquarters of the Silver Moon Sect, was very quiet when the first drum sounded.Only the sound of the night breeze blowing softly caused the pine tree leaves to rustle, adding to the silence.Unfortunately, thick dew began to cover the leaves and freeze, so the fresh aroma of the Pine Forest seemed to be drowned out by the winter chill.A figure flashed quickly, jumping nimbly from one tree to another. Its wide cloak spread out like the wings of a large bat, giving it a frightening impression.When the gloomy moonlight fell on his face, there was only a cold look behind the black jade mask.He was Bianfu Wang, otherwise known as the Black Bat King
Tangye City Branch Office – Part II.
Eadric Rong's demeanor and way of speaking were much different now than before.He appeared meaner, more stern, and merciless. The two guards visibly trembled, their faces turning deathly pale.Hearing the young priest's words, the two guards immediately fell to their knees, tears streaming down their weathered faces. Their cries erupted, their voices hoarse and filled with fear."Forgive my blindness, Protector Guo," one of them wailed, his voice faltering."Please don't kill me. I still have a wife and child at home whom I need to support. Who will provide for them if I die?" added the other guard, his voice full of panic and desperation.Satisfied with scaring the two arrogant guards, Eadric Rong strode past them as they knelt fearfully, then directly into the hall. The sound of his footsteps echoed on the magnificent marble floor.Inside the hall, a beautiful woman sat behind the counter with a graceful posture and a cold gaze.The soft light from the chandeliers on the ceiling re
Tangye City Branch Office.
On this cold morning, Eadric Rong quickly cleaned the courtyard of Sanqing Temple. The air felt piercing against his skin, making his breath appear as thin vapor in the air.Although it was already mid-winter, snow had not yet fallen, and the leaves of the maple trees planted on the shrine grounds had already fallen. They looked dry without leaves, giving an impression of desolation and frost.Eadric Rong continued to sweep and organize the temple grounds to ensure they looked neat and clean for the pilgrims who came to pray.The sound of the broom scraping the ground echoed softly, mingling with the gentle breeze. The smell of wet soil and dry leaves filled the air, adding to the silence of the morning.Eadric Rong even lit a sandalwood-scented incense stick in the prayer hall. The thin smoke from the incense swirled around, spreading a soothing aroma that blended with the fragrance of the temple's old wood. After making sure everything was in order, he left.His face was smiling, as
Tangye City – Part II.
Although it was cramped, it provided the peace and quiet that Eadric Rong needed.Right now, the moon hangs over the horizon, and the air feels very cold.Winter is here, and although snow has not yet covered the ground, the air is already cold enough to make many people choose to stay indoors, reducing their outdoor activities.So, don't be surprised when it's the Hai Shi period, or 21:00 - 23:00, the streets of Tangye City are very quiet. No one is wandering around. Even traveling food vendors who usually use carts or carrying poles are nowhere to be seen on the streets.However, on that dark night, a shadowy figure seemed to dart from within the temple. It leapt from the railing of the Sanqing Temple wall, its movements quick and agile, like an eagle flying high in the sky.The figure moved powerfully, not making the slightest sound as his feet hit the ground. If you look closely, he is our hero - Eadric Rong.Eadric Rong, with his keen eyes and trained sensibilities, felt every gu
Tangye City.
Tangye City is a small city compared to Daqi City.Eadric Rong entered the city gates with small steps. His eyes wandered, observing the buildings and life around him.The hustle and bustle of these simple townspeople's activities made him feel relieved.Inwardly, he concluded:"Good. This place is perfect for me to hide from the surveillance of the white sect's spies, as well as from the pursuit of the sect's two greatest figures. Here, I can also practice all the sword arts and empty-handed arts!"Eadric Rong had repeatedly reflected on his proficiency in the sword arts and empty-handed arts that he practiced based on the copy in the Khongjian belt.He felt that his understanding was still limited to the surface, only mastering the outer shell of the core of these sciences. If he wanted to deal with the two white sect monsters from Wudang and the Silver Lotus Temple? Hmm, it felt like his abilities were still far from matching those two white sect monsters."Maybe being alone in a s
Plan for Tangye City.
"This is just the beginning," he said in a trembling but determined voice. "Let me alone swallow this shame.""But you'll see, the leader of the martial world himself will teach you, along with the priest of the Silver Lotus Temple!"Caleb Yan's threats echoed through the silent forest, creating palpable tension.Everyone knew that the highest cultivators and martial artists in the martial world today were the leader of the Wudang Sect, Priest Isaac Zhang, and the Horned Monk of the Silver Lotus Temple. These two figures were both respected and feared by many.Yan Huansheng and Xie Wuming watched the group leave with a sense of unwillingness and worry.Their faces showed anxiety that could not be hidden. Caleb Yan's threat made them realize the danger that might be coming soon.When the figures of the white sect disappeared, the two began to give their opinions."My Lord Black Bat King," Yan Huansheng said in a serious tone, his gaze full of concern."Why don't you take the lives of t
