War God Supreme

Chapter 9

The Qi in the morning was extremely fresh, but it was also the time when spiritual QI was at its lowest. By that time, Li Lingtian had found a safe place to change out of his clothes and burned up the tattered clothes.

He then strode confidently towards the sect’s gates. Seeing that countless disciples had already started to train, a smile popped up on his face.

Within half an hour, he was back in his room and after entering it, he could finally relax. This past night had given him too many shocks.

He could not help but think about the power of a Warrior Spirit powerhouse and how pitiful he was being chased around. If he was a Warrior Spirit powerhouse, he definitely would not have been pursued like that.

However, he remembered that there were tiers even higher than Warrior Spirit. So, he set a goal in his head, swearing that he would one day dominate the world’s powerhouses and control his fate in his hands.

He sat down cross-legged. The running he did the entire night had left him empty on True Qi.

After an hour of rest, when his True Qi had returned to the maximum capacity of a Tier Four Warrior, his entire being felt rejuvenated.

“Forty-seven Inner Vitals, that should be enough to get some pills.”

Now that he was well-rested, he started to clear out his spoils from the night. In Yang Chongxiao’s storage sack, he had found ten Tier Nine Inner VItals. Adding them to the ones he found in Zhou Yun’s storage sack, it tallied up to a total of forty-seven.

In addition to that, he had also found two bottles of pills that consisted of five Spirit Binding Pills and eight Vitality Pills.

Vitality Pills were grade one pills that could be used by all Warriors. However, the Spirit Binding Pills were grade two pills in which only Warrior Spirit powerhouses could use them.

If a Warrior powerhouse used them, its potency would be extremely strong, but an average Warrior would not dare to try it unless they were a Tier Nine peak Warrior. Even then, they would only use it in hopes of breaking through their boundaries.

Other than the pills, there were more than two hundred mediocre spiritual stones and more importantly, the Ice and Fire Ring as well as a skill tome. There was also a strange jade slip.

The Ice and Fire Ring had nearly cost him his life. It had even caused countless people to fight over it and hunt it down. Yet, he had no clue what kind of treasure it really was.

[Inferior Onyx Tier: Ice VItality Divine Fist]

“It’s an inferior Onyx Tier Ice Vitality Divine Fist tome!”

“Yep, it’s worth it!”

Li Lingtian then ignored the Ice and Fire Ring and took a look at this skill tome. After realizing what it was, he was ecstatic. Without even looking at the utility of this technique, just the Tier of this tome was worth the effort.

In the Sky Cloud Sect, only the genius inner sect disciples would have a chance to come in contact with an inferior Onyx Tier skill tome. Outer sect disciples could not even dream of it.

In addition to that, this skill — the Ice Vitality Divine Fist was perfect for him. Although he had not mastered the Ice Vitality Warrior Soul and the Immemorial Ice Crystal, training this Ice Vitality Divine Fist would help enhance his Ice Vitality Warrior Soul by balancing out the Fire Dragon’s Heart.

Although it was quite a dangerous journey, it was definitely worth it. Not only did he acquire this skill tome, but he had also gotten his hands on a treasure as well as quite a few pills and spiritual stones. It was as if a golden egg had fallen into his lap, except that this golden egg had nearly crushed him in the head.

Over the next few days, Li Lingtian did not leave his room. Instead, he trained with his Heaven and Earth Reincarnation Technique in the morning and the Flaming Divine Fist and Ice Vitality Divine Fist at night.

If the other people had seen him training skills that were of the opposites, their jaws would definitely drop. However, that was reality. Not only did he manage to learn it, but he was stronger from it too.

After five days and after he had used up all eight Vitality Pills, he had become a Tier Five Warrior. That’s the advantage of training with pills.

Funnily enough, he had started to treat these pills like candy. Outer sect disciples could only get a single Vitality Pill every month, but he had used up eight of them in just five days.

“The Ice Vitality Divine Fist can only be trained up till completion… Looks like it’s time to exchange some Inner Vitals.”

Within five days, he had managed to learn the Ice Vitality Divine Fist. With a single punch, everything within a fifty-feet radius would turn into icicles. The chilling winds it emitted was not just threatening, but it could also slow the enemy down.

However, he had never unleashed it before because every time he tried to unleash the Ice Vitality Fist, he had to utilize the Immemorial Ice Crystal. The Immemorial Ice Crystal’s potency was terrifyingly powerful and he could not control it at all. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he would most likely not use the Ice Vitality Divine Fist.

Although he had run out of pills, he felt that using the Soul Binding Pills at this point would be a waste. He should wait until he was at least a Tier Seven Warrior before he used it, but he still possessed Inner Vitals and spiritual stones.

…

“Senior Brother Li, I’ve finally found you!”

As soon as Li Lingtian entered the outer sect, a sweet voice rang out and surprised Li Lingtian. In the Sky Cloud Sect, he did not have many acquaintances, much less girls.

When he turned around, a slight smile appeared on his face. It was Shangguan Linger, Cheng Yun, and Xue Da.

“Senior Brother Li, we haven’t seen you for days. You didn’t go out to hunt demonic beasts, right?”

Xue Da asked loudly. Although Xue Da was a Tier Five Warrior, calling someone a Senior Brother was a matter etiquette. No one would call someone a junior brother unless they were familiar with each other.

“I’ve spent the past couple of days training, so no, I didn’t go hunting demonic beasts.”

Li Lingtian nodded. Over the past few days, there was no way he could have easily entered the mountain range. If he was spotted by his pursuers, it would be a lot of trouble.

“These are the pills exchanged from the last time. The materials were worth fourteen Vitality Pills. We have divvied it up amongst us four, so here’s your five.” Xue Da handed five pills over to Li Lingtian, smiling sincerely as he did so.

“Why do I get five?” Li Lingtian was shocked.

“You were the one who did the most work. Anyway, you’ll need more Vitality Pills to raise your cultivation level. Your cultivation level…”

“You’re already a Tier Five Warrior? How?”

“Are you a prodigy? How did you do it?”

Xue Da handed the pills over to Li Lingtian. Li Lingtian did the most work on their last expedition. Besides, he had also offered to take responsibility for the incident with Lan Luo by himself. Xue Da was utterly impressed with this Senior Brother.

When the topic of Li Lingtian’s cultivation level was brought up, Xue Da suddenly realized that he could no longer see the boundary of Li Lingtian’s cultivation. Just a few days ago, Li Lingtian was a Tier Three Warrior — that, he could clearly make out. However, at this point in time, he could no longer see it. The only thing he could tell was that Li Lingtian’s cultivation level was higher than his, or at the very least, equal to him.

Even if it was equal to his cultivation level, that would mean that Li Lingtian had gone up two Tiers within the past few days.

“Isn’t it just going up two Tiers?”

Li Lingtian calmly said, not knowing that this line sent shockwaves down these people’s minds. After becoming a Warrior, disciples would usually take a couple of years on average to go up a single Tier, where some even stagnate for years. However, Li Lingtian seemed to make it sound like it was easy.

“Isn’t it just two Tiers? Are you trolling us? How many days has it been since we last met and you’ve already gone up two Tiers? Going from a Tier Three Warrior to a Tier Five Warrior took me two whole years!”

Xue Da looked like his mind was blown. Going up two Tiers by training for two days truly frustrated him to no end when he compared that to himself.

Cheng Yun and Shangguan Linger were also speechless. How could those so-called geniuses continue to survive after hearing this?

“I still have some Inner Vitals so I’m going to exchange it with some pills, what about you guys?” Li Lingtian smiled as he asked the three of them.

“We just came from there, so you go ahead. We’ll wait for you here.”

Xue Da helplessly shook his head. Then, Li Lingtian turned around and headed towards the Welfare Chamber.

Welfare Chamber.

The Welfare Chamber was a place for the sect’s disciples to receive welfare, and it was also the place to take up quests. The average disciples would come here with the herbs and Inner VItals that they had obtained and trade them in exchange for spiritual stones or pills.

When Li Lintian arrived, there were barely any people there. So, within five minutes, it was already his turn.

“Herbs or Inner Vitals?”

The Tier Seven Warrior inside the Welfare Chamber calmly said without looking at Li Lingtian. In fact, he was minding his own stuff. For a Tier Five Warrior disciple to come here alone, they definitely would not have brought in any good Inner Vitals and herbs.

“Trading in Inner Vitals and materials for spiritual stones and pills.”

Li Lingtian smiled as he pulled out his storage sack and tossed it over to the Warrior who was working.

“Huh?”

The Warrior looked arrogantly at Li Lingtian’s storage sack. As his Divine Mindfulness scanned the storage sack, his facial expressions changed instantly.

“There are so many superior Inner Vitals and materials!”

The Warrior took a big gulp of air, looking extremely surprised. This Tier Five Warrior disciple had somehow managed to get his hands on so many materials and Inner Vitals in which all of them were of superior quality.

“I’ll take fifty Vitality Pills and have the remaining in spiritual stones.”

Li Lingtian calmly said. He knew perfectly well how many materials and Inner Vitals were in his storage sack. Furthermore, he had a card with him that listed the conversion rates for the various Levels of Inner Vitals. Naturally, he was not afraid that he would be scammed out of his goods.

“Here’s fifty Vitality Pills and five hundred and sixty spiritual stones.”

The Warrior’s gaze towards Li Lingtian was now much softer. It did not matter how these Inner Vitals had come about, he was not someone to be trifled with.

Soon, the Inner Vitals and materials were cleared out as fifty Vitality Pills and five hundred and sixty spiritual stones were placed in front of Li Lingtian.

After exchanging the pills, Li Lingtian walked straight out. However, by the time he saw Xue Da and company, a cold expression showed on his face. His gaze was extremely cold.

“Today, the three of your lives shall become a sacrifice to Lan Luo!”

Lan Hai’s icy cold stare was locked onto the three of them and his body was emitting an immense Qi.

“Hmph! Lan Luo had a death wish, you can’t blame us for anything.”

“We’re still in the Sky Cloud Sect, you better not forget the rules of our sect.”

Staring at this youth in front of them, Xue Da and Shangguang Ling’er put on a serious expression. This was the genius Tier Nine peak Warrior. In the outer sect, he was an existence that ranked ninth.

“Unless you don’t plan on leaving the Sky Cloud Sect. In fact, even if I don’t kill you, I can just cripple all the three of your cultivations. Do you think the Sky Cloud Guild would punish me for that? Idiots!”

Lan Hai glared at the three of them. The Sky Cloud Sect’s rules strictly prohibited disciples from fighting with each other. However, for a Tier Nine peak Warrior to cripple three average disciples’ cultivation, the sect would most likely turn a blind eye to it. This was a world where the strong ruled and fairness did not apply.

“Pshh.”

As soon as he finished, Lan Hai unsheathed the long sword in his hands and he pointed it right at Xue Da. He was a Tier Nine peak Warrior, so crippling a Tier Five Warrior disciple was easier than killing an ant.

With a long sword pointed at him, Xue Da was frozen still. There was nowhere he could hide. In a situation like this, the fear he felt was enough to kill him.

“Kya!”

Shangguang Ling’er screamed out. Once this Tier Nine peak Warrior made a move, Xue Da’s cultivation would be crippled. She could not help but scream out in panic and fear as her face turned pale white.
