The Secret of The Demonic Artifact The End of a Play
That afternoon, there was a crowd at the top of Wudang Mountain. A young boy stood on the sect's podium, looking awkward in the crowd of other children. The boy was Eadric Rong, who was asked to explain how he could cultivate Pure Eve energy.Eadric Rong began to clarify, followed by scornful looks from the crowd of new kids."I hereby confirm that I have never used any underhanded tactics or cheated in my actions in the Energy Meter trials." Eadric Rong stopped and sighed, trying to muffle his heartbeat.Although his voice did not project using pure air, because it was so quiet, every word he spoke was clearly heard and immediately understood by his listeners.Eadric Rong continued, "On that day, while I was traveling for resources in the middle of the Cloud Pine Forest, I accidentally came across a very strange tree.The tree had red leaves and fruit. Surprisingly, the fruit was also red and was the only fruit growing on the tree!"At this point, everyone listening to the story from

As a gust of cold wind slapped Edmon Ouwyang's face, he wiped away a drop of tear that fell on his cheek. In the depths of his heart, he vowed to take revenge and make the boy named Eadric Rong regret having stolen the show during the Wudang Sect's recruitment.Until the sun appeared to be leaning over the western horizon, and when the sky had turned a blood-red color, Edmon Ouwyang's anger towards Eadric Rong still had not subsided.Finally, when the Lorien Priest announced that just over half of the candidates had made the cut, Eadric Rong walked back to his hut at the edge of the Bamboo Grove.In the old and humble hut, Rongkuo was lost in deep reverie. He wondered what techniques he should borrow from the library tomorrow.As a disciple, everyone in the outer courtyard was given permission to have one copy of the first-level sword skill and one copy of the zero-level empty-handed palm martial arts skill.The happiness Eadric Rong felt at that moment was overwhelming. His face was

He gazed up at the star-filled sky, feeling excited for the future to come.Standing on a cliff that was about two meters high from the narrow street, Eadric Rong jumped lightly.There is a flat section on the cliff, a perfect place for an expert to sit to cultivate while absorbing the gentle Moon's energy."Didn't anyone see me?" muttered Eadric Rong in a low voice.He checked left and right, alert to the possibility of any sect disciples or sect guards who might pass by and see him.His face changed into relief, so he carefully spread his special mat on the flat part of the cliff rock."This is the perfect night to absorb all the moon's energy," he murmured as he looked up at the dark sky. "According to Senior Kyron Mo, it is precisely on a dead moon night like this that the energy I will absorb will be of higher quality!"After that, he sat quietly in the lotus position, and began to meditate with full concentration.As the gloomy and cold moonlight seeped into his body, Eadric Ron

The clock is set according to Chen Shi's time in the Shichen system, meaning the current time is between 7:00 am and 9:00 am, when the sun has risen and is in the sky. The bright light cast on the Bamboo Forest is mesmerizing.In a decrepit-looking hut, sunlight streamed through the cracks in the window, which was covered with old paper torn in several places. The bright rays exposed Fenn Zhao's eyes to blinding light, making him squint."Where am I?" Fenn Zhao wondered inwardly. He had just woken up from a stupor and tried to get up immediately.However, as soon as he moved, an excruciating pain attacked his chest."Ouch!" he screamed.The pain was so intense that tears fell from his eyes."What happened to me? Did I break my sternum?" Fenn Zhao thought in panic.Then, he began to remember. In the middle of the night, before dawn, he had come to a remote hut at the edge of the Bamboo Forest, where Eadric Rong lived.His intention was to break the boy's dantian. However, unexpectedly,

"Now, quickly leave here. Before my anger peaks and I decide to slit your throat and take your life. As luck would have it, I only retaliated by breaking your dantian, just like what you were about to do to me last night. Isn't it even?" said Eadric Rong mercilessly. He'd had enough of these cruel kids like Fenn Zhao.At that moment, the sun was directly overhead. The wind blowing in the Bamboo Forest continued to rustle, swaying the bamboo stalks as if they were graceful dancers.The rustling sound of the long leaves created a melody that resembled the strains of a flute, bringing a strange feeling to the heart.Fenn Zhao hobbled along, holding his staff tightly. A stabbing pain coursed through his body, making every step feel like torture.He had suffered two devastating blows. The first blow was his broken sternum, a painful physical injury.However, the second blow was far more severe: damage to his dantian, the spiritual energy center in his body. As a result of that damage, he w

Millie Xiao's status was quite high in the Wudang Sect as a senior Inner Court disciple, as well as the niece of Elder Juric Teng.Moreover, as a senior disciple at a young age, Millie Xiao's cultivation level was already at the Jade Tiger Swordsman Quasi realm. This was a high tier for a child of her age.So, in Millie Xiao's eyes, the children of that rich man Edmon Ouwyang were like insignificant dust in the face of her high status.With a dissatisfied look on her face, she asked,"Do you want me to drag those four kids along, then have them apologize to you?" asked Millie Xiao, trying to hide her angry expression."No need," Eadric Rong replied, looking calm."I will not be swayed by their provocations. After all, aren't they only briefly able to show off their beautiful and expensive clothes?”“This afternoon, all the new kids have to pick up their sect uniforms and wear them in their daily activities," Eadric Rong replied calmly."Alright then," Millie Xiao replied.

"Wind Sword Slash!" exclaimed an 8-year-old boy, encouraging himself amid sword practice.He trains in a mini bamboo forest behind the Wudang Sect.The little boy was named Eadric Rong.The mini bamboo forest is part of the territory of the Wudang Sect, one of the strongest sects in the Wriston Kingdom.Since this morning, Eadric Rong had been engrossed in practicing the sword technique known as the Nine Steps of the Wind Sword, a basic technique that all disciples in the Wudang Sect must master. However, Eadric Rong's physical condition was pitiful.Since childhood, he never had any power in his body. Eadric Rong was born without the Pearl Core, the energy-gathering source at the center of the human body that is necessary for anyone who wants to pursue the path of cultivation and martial arts.Without the Pearl Core, even if he had practiced the sword for a thousand years, all those moves would only have looked beautiful but would have been powerless.Eadric Rong can be said to have

After rolling for six rounds, Malakai Yan stopped as his body hit a rock. He tried to stand up, but his head felt dizzy, and everything in front of his eyes appeared as mere shadows.Although there was no pain from the stab in his chest, the attack left a shocking mark. What's more, he felt incredibly embarrassed. It had never occurred to him that Eadric Rong, who had always been the victim of bullies, had enough sword skills to take him down.With his two best friends, who had always faithfully followed his orders, standing by and witnessing his defeat, Malakai Yan's mind was worried about his reputation being ruined if word got out.In his rage, Malakai Yan pulled out a sword. Unlike the wooden sword Eadric Rong was using, this was a real sword and looked dangerous. The sword's light glittered in the sunlight as Malakai Yan pointed it at Eadric Rong with a trembling voice."It turns out you have a little ability," Malakai Yan said, shivering angrily. His voice rose even higher. "You

Followed by the sound of shouts from the senior disciples in various directions. They seemed to be demanding an explanation from Eadric Rong about the ongoing situation, which had caused the uproar."We need an explanation. How is it possible that someone who doesn't have a pearl core can suddenly utilize pure air by dealing eleven points of damage?""Eadric Rong! You must explain. Otherwise, we'll consider this an act of cheating!" Fenn Zhao, as if encouraged by the questions most of the senior disciples asked, was not to be outdone and demanded an explanation.Meanwhile, the new disciples under the stage had already started whispering. They looked at Eadric Rong contemptuously as if he had committed an unforgivable crime."He turned out to be a cheater!" said a prospective student who seemed to be dressed in fancy clothes. Since the beginning of his arrival, he had always been in a group of four with his friends. With their beautiful outfits, these four prospective students looked v

At that moment, the Lorien Priest's gaze on Eadric Rong looked complicated. His face was filled with sympathy and curiosity."Take it easy, Eadric Rong," said the Lorien Priest in a low, soothing voice. "Don't listen to those kids' scorn. If you fail this time, there's still next year. You are still very young, and there will be many opportunities for success in the future."Priest Lorien's voice was soft in Eadric Rong's ears as if a soothing gust of spring wind. This created a sense of warmth in his heart, giving him the strength to continue with the test.After Eadric Rong had calmed down and was no longer overwhelmed with nerves, it wasn't long before the Lorien Priest's voice could be heard echoing deafeningly."Eadric Rong, new disciple candidate of the Wudang Sect. Are you ready to undergo the energy test?" asked Priest Lorien.On stage, Eadric Rong nodded in agreement."Please grab hold of that Energy Meter pole!" ordered the Lorien Priest with his resounding voice, complete i

"That kid never gives up. I'm always amazed by people who are persistent and full of spirit like him. However, when it comes to Eadric Rong, I can't say much. He'll probably feel embarrassed for the umpteenth time!" another disciple said sarcastically.The habit of watching the crowd, let alone seeing such an event when the new disciples were awkward, made the senior-level disciples want to witness it.This was pleasant entertainment for them. Eadric Rong noted inwardly that the three core disciples, Ferrin Teng, Torrek Da, and Faelin Fen, were seen watching along from another corner and separated themselves from the group of ordinary disciples."Wretched. Even the three core disciples witnessed this incident. I'm getting more and more confused. Should I display my true abilities, keep a low profile, and lay flat on the ground?" Eadric Rong's heart was filled with indecision.Hearing his name being called, Eadric Rong walked slowly and cautiously to the podium at the front, where the
