The God of Wealth Arrives!

Ethereal Immortal Sect

Several days have passed since Chen Wang returned.

Over the past few days, he has been familiarizing himself with the various Spirit Artifact in his hands.

The burly man's judgment was indeed excellent. This set of Spirit Artifact would definitely elevate Chen Wang's combat power to a higher level and greatly enhance his defensive capabilities.

"Did Huo Yun Dao Zhen not go in person that day, but only invited those few people?"

However, after thinking about it, Chen Wang realized that if that were really the case, it would be understandable.

Those guys were incredibly skilled, and damn it, there was one old fox who could hide his true abilities; even if they were standing right in front of you, it would be hard to tell what was going on.

In a four-on-one situation—no, wait, with that beast added to the mix, it's five against one—they could very well take us down.

This is true even with the Immortal Slaughtering Bow.

Under these circumstances, would Huo Yun still need to get involved in this matter personally?

Although the soul search was unsuccessful, Chen Wang was convinced that Huo Yun was responsible, and that no one else would have gone to such lengths to deal with him.

Chen Wang learned that Huo Yun had been under investigation by the sect all this time.

The message that came back from Feng Lin indicated that Huo Yun was being investigated recently because of the intelligence he provided.

That senior sister, Meng Lingyu, did indeed approach me with ulterior motives.

This matter involves many elders, as well as some deacons of the Ethereal Immortal Sect.

Therefore, Huo Yun stayed here to deal with the questioning, as the Ethereal Immortal Sect had some methods of questioning the heart.

"So intense, it seems that the Ethereal Immortal Sect is not an impenetrable fortress, nor is it a completely rotten sect."

Chen Wang stroked his chin, deep in thought.

If the entire sect is rotten to the core and everyone is corrupt, no one will care about such things.

Of course, there is another possibility: the struggle between different forces led to this conflict.

"I originally thought that even if this issue were to be addressed, it wouldn't have much of an effect, but now it seems that might not be the case," Chen Wang thought to himself.

This matter caused a stir for half a month, becoming known to everyone in the Ethereal Immortal Sect, and Huo Yun was also imprisoned.

When Chen Wang saw the message Feng Lin sent him, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. "Didn't they say this guy has someone backing him?"

"He's just been imprisoned like this?"

Chen Wang's fingers quickly traced across the Communication Magical Artifact.

Feng Lin said, "It is said that two Golden Core Stage Old Ancestor expressed their opinions on this matter. The sect leader was furious and finally made the decision to imprison Huo Yun in Black Mountain."

Black Mountain is a mountain peak where the Ethereal Immortal Sect imprisons offending disciples. Once imprisoned in Black Mountain, there is an 80% chance they will never come out.

Because there are layers upon layers of magic formations in Black Mountain, and there are many skilled people inside, including a Golden Core Stage cultivator.

Chen Wang was somewhat taken aback.

He had originally prepared those Spirit Artifact to deal with Huo Yun, but he never expected that the guy would be imprisoned.

It feels like you were supposed to have a showdown with him in a fantasy world, but he got into trouble, got into legal trouble, and got locked up.

"If Teacher Zhang San came here, would he thrive and eventually become a giant in the Cultivation World?"

Chen Wang couldn't help but smile slightly when he thought of this.

Chen Wang was cultivating the Dragon Tiger Golden Core Secret Method in his own residence.

Although this Secret Method only has one part, the content it contains is already quite profound.

Chen Wang's progress has been very slow during this period. He has already reached the Great Perfection realm, and with the help of spirit medicine, he has further improved the strength of his soul.

At this point, it would be difficult to make any further progress through cultivation, so he continued to cultivate the Dragon Tiger Golden Core Secret Method.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and Huo Yun's matter seemed to have calmed down.

Some of the people associated with him were also dealt with and punished.

The Old Ancestor Dao Yuan didn't offer much of an opinion either.

Perhaps in the eyes of Golden Core Stage cultivator, these struggles among the people below are nothing but fleeting clouds.

Chen Wang was not reassured about this, and two more months passed, but there was still no change in the situation.

"Huo Yun was really locked up like that?"

Chen Wang was somewhat taken aback, but he was also finally a little relieved.

His talent could only be described as above average. After cultivating the Dragon Tiger Golden Core Secret Method for several days, he had not felt anything and had not even entered the door. Chen Wang felt frustrated.

Forming the Golden Foundation Establishment, a level that has kept countless people stuck for centuries.

The few months that Chen Wang spent cultivating were insignificant.

He constantly reminded himself to relax and not to rush into cultivation, lest he fall into demonic ways.

"No matter how powerful a magical Law Artifact, it's still just external force. I still need to improve my own cultivation. But... how can I improve my cultivation now?"

Chen Wang's eyes hardened, and he decided to go to the third world to learn more.

Chen Wang was somewhat wary of the power of this unfamiliar world.

Because every time he went there, he would feel that inexplicable power.

Moreover, Chen Wang previously discovered some strange beings in this world, which were called demons.

The so-called Essence Blood of demons can cause people to undergo strange changes.

Therefore, Chen Wang has always been very wary of this world.

However, now that he wants to improve, he also needs to learn about this third world.

In the Chu Dynasty, in Tiankang County, Welcome Teahouse.

At this moment, a young man was sitting in the corner of the teahouse. His sword had a brass hilt and a fish-skin sheath, giving it a very antique look.

He sat on one side of the teahouse, listening with a smile to the sounds coming from inside.

Soon, a waiter brought over a pot of tea. "Young Master Chen, this is your chrysanthemum tea."

The young man then tossed a piece of silver to the waiter.

The waiter accepted the gift, flattered, and said, "Thank you, Young Master Chen."

The young man smiled, took a sip of the chrysanthemum tea, a specialty of Tiankang County, and found it indeed refreshing and good for the eyes.

He casually asked, "Has anything happened in town these past few days?"

The young man shook his head. "A few months ago, some officials from the imperial court sealed off the surrounding towns and counties, seemingly looking for something, but in the end, nothing came of it. There hasn't been any trouble in the city during this time."

The young man nodded. "Okay, you can go now."

The guy smiled and said, "Okay."

But he stopped in his tracks, leaned closer and said, "Young Master Chen, Xu Family has asked me about you several times, asking me to thank you when I see you and invite you to my residence so that she and her daughter can express their gratitude."

The young man waved his hand dismissively and said, "No need. If you see her, just tell her for me."

The waiter didn't say anything more, just said, "Okay."

He immediately bowed and retreated.

The young man standing here is Chen Wang.

He has been in this world for several days and has learned about its information through various means.

He possessed the Soul Searching Technique, and the target of his soul-searching was a group of mountain bandits who were preparing to kill and rob, but were killed by Chen Wang.

Through the memories of those bandits, Chen Wang learned that the dynasty he lived in was called the Chu Dynasty, and that demons and monsters roamed the world.

The demons of this world are different from the demons of the Cultivation World Chen Wang lived in; they are a special kind of being.

Some resembled the Demon Beast he knew, while others were like ghosts, possessing very special abilities that ordinary people didn't know much about.

From the memories of those bandits, he learned that extraordinary powers do exist in this world, known as martial artists, just as he had previously learned.

The initial stage of martial arts is called Body Tempering, and the next stage is meridian opening, which involves opening up all the meridians in the body so that True Qi can be generated naturally.

The area above the Tongmai (通脉) is called the Xiantian (先天), but these bandits did not understand the specific divisions.

The leader was merely a martial artist at the Body Tempering Realm.

The Cultivation Method he practiced was called the Savage Bull Force, a type of hard martial art. In terms of strengthening the skin, muscles, and bones, it was somewhat similar to the Body Refining Cultivation Method that Chen Wang had mastered. However, body-refining emphasizes strengthening the Qi and Blood, and building a powerful physique, making the body itself like a weapon.

However, according to some of his memories, martial artists at this level seem to value True Qi more.

One sign of reaching the Meridian Opening Realm is mastering True Qi.

However, even ordinary martial artists at the Body Tempering Realm are already extremely powerful, capable of splitting stone tablets and possessing the strength of tigers and wolves.

This man was originally a soldier, and he learned his Savage Bull Force in the army. Later, he became an outlaw and led a group of people to fight and rob.

Chen Wang was watching the storyteller recount a tragic incident that had occurred in Shangzhuang Village with great interest.

These demons wreak havoc everywhere, and now many places in the entire Chu Dynasty have become forbidden areas.

Once a demonic disturbance breaks out, it is common for a city to become a ghost town.

However, such incidents are relatively rare nowadays, and Tiankang County is relatively stable.

The imperial court established One Prefecture, Three Divisions. The prefecture was Yellow Court Prefecture, and the three departments were Demon Slayer, Demon Suppression Division, and Xu Anjing Division.

Chen Wang has come to understand this world in the past few days.

The person he had encountered earlier claimed to be from the Yellow Court Prefecture.

The system consisted of One Prefecture, Three Divisions, with the prefecture holding the highest position and the three departments holding equal positions.

In addition, some martial arts sects also have powerful warriors who can fight against demons.

The strongest person in Tiankang County was Meridian Opening Martial Warrior who had Demon Slaying Division, surnamed Meng.

In addition, there is a Luo River Martial Hall, whose headmaster, Fang Dongchen, is also a martial artist at the Meridian Opening Realm.

Chen Wang plans to pay a visit today to learn about the cultivation system of this world.

After sitting in the teahouse for a while, he paid his money and left.

As I was going downstairs, I saw a beautiful young woman arriving, protected by several guards.

These guards Blood Qi, burly and strong, and carried Goose Feather Saber.

This beautiful young girl, adorned with jewels, looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old. Her face was rosy and delicate, her long eyelashes fluttered, and her large, Water Sprite eyes were captivating.

Upon seeing Chen Wang, the young woman smiled and said, "Young Master Chen, I'm so glad I found you! I've been looking for you for so long!"

In this world, the practice of martial arts is not bound by Confucian ethics and etiquette. Women are not confined to their homes; in fact, there is a culture of women practicing martial arts, making the society relatively open.

The girl's name was Xu Miaoyin. She and her mother were temporarily staying in Tiankang County under the protection of a merchant caravan.

Chen Wang didn't know much about their family's specific situation.

However, the last time Chen Wang captured those bandits and searched their souls, he happened to save the mother and daughter, and the two of them were very grateful to him.

Today, Chen Wang had the waiter decline Xu Miaoyin's invitation as well.

Chen Wang said, "Don't worry about it, it's just a small favor."

Xu Miaoyin said softly, "It's just a small favor for Young Master Chen, but it's a life-saving grace for my daughter and me. Please come to my residence for a chat."

Such a beautiful young woman, a wealthy heiress, speaking softly and gently, would be irresistible to many men if she invited them out on the street.

However, Chen Wang was preoccupied with the martial arts school's unique skills, so he kindly declined.

Xu Miaoyin kept inviting Chen Wang be her guest. Chen Wang was somewhat exasperated by her persistence and could only say, "Another day, another day."

Xu Miaoyin then thanked her and left.

Chen Wang finally arrived at the Luo River Martial Hall.

The martial arts school was filled with sandbags, stone weights, bronze figures, wooden stakes, and weapons such as swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks, and forks; it truly resembled a martial arts school.

There was a middle-aged man who looked very energetic, dressed in a short-sleeved shirt, looking very clean and neat.

Seeing Chen Wang's imposing presence and handsome appearance, and noting that his clothes were not something an ordinary person could afford, they politely asked, "Young master, what brings you to the Luo River Martial Hall?"

Chen Wang said, "I came here to learn martial arts."

The middle-aged man said, "My name is Hong Tao, and I am the instructor of this martial arts school. To become a student of the Luo River Martial Hall, the tuition fee is five taels of silver per month."

Five taels of silver was a considerable sum in the Chu Dynasty; it represented a year's income for an average family.

Therefore, the saying "the poor are scholars, the rich are warriors" has been true since ancient times.

Chen Wang had long known that the Luo River Martial Hall had a unique skill called the Great Stele Shattering Thirteen Forms.

Chen Wang then got straight to the point and stated his purpose.

The instructor surnamed Hong was taken aback for a moment. "You want to learn the Great Stele Shattering Thirteen Forms?"

Chen Wang nodded.

The instructor said, "If you want to learn the Great Stele Shattering Thirteen Forms, you must first build a strong physique. Do you see those Wooden Puppet stakes and stone locks? Those are for training your muscles and bones first. Then you must gradually practice the Black Tiger Golden Fist."

"Only after mastering the Great Stele Shattering Thirteen Forms can one attempt to cultivate it; otherwise, it is impossible to cultivate it at all."

Instructor Hong shook his head with a wry smile.

If this young master hadn't been so distinguished by his appearance and demeanor, he wouldn't have said so much to him.

This rich young master, who doesn't want to endure hardship but wants to immediately master Higher Vehicle martial arts, is simply delusional.

Chen Wang laughed and said, "I've also practiced some martial arts, and I've already experienced all of what you're talking about."

Instructor Hong looked at the young master with some suspicion; he didn't seem to be a martial artist.

"Young master, I wasn't joking or refusing you just now. I was just kindly reminding you that martial arts are not like other things. If you're not good at studying, you can learn slowly. But if you don't use the right methods in martial arts, it can harm your body."

Chen Wang smiled and nodded, "Of course I know, and I'm not joking. Please take me to see the master."

Chen Wang said.

He then handed over ten taels of silver without any fanfare.

Instructor Hong was stunned, shocked by Chen Wang's grand gesture.

This young master is incredibly generous! "Please follow me," Instructor Hong said.

He was a little careless just now.

What arrived was not a fancy-looking young master, but a god of wealth!

How could they turn away the God of Wealth? Earning ten taels of silver just for leading the way made Instructor Hong's eyes crinkle with amusement. He found Chen Wang Chen Wang pleasing to the eye and led him into the inner hall.
