The Newly Appointed Incense Master

Chen Changming placed the Spirit Boat in the courtyard.

Then he returned to his room and quietly began practicing the Heavenly Furnace Body-Forging Art.

He has been at the fifth level of the Foundation Establishment for several years now, and he has never missed a day of practicing this body-refining Cultivation Method. Now he has a vague premonition that he will be able to break through to the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment stage soon.

Body Cultivator at the sixth level of Foundation Establishment is already quite powerful within the entire Foundation Establishment system.

Especially since Chen Changming is not an ordinary Body Cultivator, his current strength has already caught up with Body Cultivator at the sixth level of Foundation Establishment, so now ordinary people have no chance to kill him.

As his body refinement progressed, purple patterns gradually appeared on his internal organs. These patterns, like mysterious runes, shone with purple light, as if telling of immense power. If one day his internal organs turned completely purple, they would become indestructible, able to withstand powerful attacks. They would be like steel fortresses forged from Law Treasure, unbreakable.

The cultivation path of Body Cultivator is like climbing a towering mountain. The further one progresses, the more one feels their own power. But this path is also like a rugged trail full of thorns and mist, fraught with difficulties, dangers, and unknowns. Not everyone can make it through.

More than twenty days later, several figures walked in from outside. Upon seeing the Spirit Boat of the Incense Master displayed in the courtyard, Chen Hu became immediately excited and shouted, "Incense Master Liao!"

Chen Changming pushed open the door and went out.

"Incense Master Liao has unfortunately passed away."

He gazed intently at the group, his face filled with sorrow, and said...

There were four people in the courtyard, but Zhao Tailai is now gone; he is presumed dead.

After all, Zhao Tailai's cultivation level was not high.

What?

Has Incense Master Liao fallen?

Upon hearing this, the group was both surprised and delighted, and surprisingly, none of them felt any grief.

Liao Yunfang is dead. After a month of hard work slaying Demon Beast, they could have rested and recuperated properly in the second month and no longer accepted this woman's endless demands.

Chen Hu took a few steps forward and tentatively asked, "Chen Bai, you're not joking, are you sure it's true that Incense Master Liao has really fallen?"

"Yes, Incense Master Liao was surrounded and attacked by several level-three Demon Beast, and unfortunately perished."

Chen Changming maintained a sorrowful expression.

"Then how did you survive?"

Qiu Qianlang suddenly asked.

"Incense Master Liao covered for me, which gave me a chance to escape."

Chen Changming explained.

"This time, when our Black Tortoise Division launched a general offensive, the Demon Beast in the Demonic Qi, for some unknown reason, also dispersed on a large scale and engaged us in a battle. As a result, many people from various halls were killed, many Incense Master perished, and even some Flag Master were killed."

Chen Hu sighed as he spoke.

Chen Changming was shocked to hear this, never expecting it to be so tragic this time.

At this moment, Tang Mengshao raised an eyebrow slightly, a subtle glint flashing in her eyes.

Have you reported this to your superiors?

Chen Hu asked.

Chen Changming shook his head. "Not yet. I came back a little early, just waiting for you to come back so we could discuss it before I report back."

"You single-handedly killed thirty Level 2 Demonic Beast?"

Chen Hu stared wide-eyed and asked.

The others also looked at Chen Changming in disbelief.

"Yes."

Chen Changming nodded.

Qiu Qianlang frowned and asked, "How did you do that?"

A golden light shot out from between their brows, and the Geng-Gold Sword landed in front of everyone.

"This is a top-tier metal-type magic Law Artifact!"

Qiu Qianlang was shocked and looked at Chen Changming in disbelief. He had never expected that this rogue cultivator at the second level of the Foundation Establishment Realm would possess a top-tier gold-type magic sword that Foundation Establishment cultivators dreamed of!

Chen Hu sighed, patted Chen Changming on the shoulder, and said, "Brother Chen Bai, you're really something. I misjudged you."

"Let's go, we'll hand over the Spirit Boat and report to Flag Master Zheng at the same time."

Qiu Qianlang said.

The group nodded, and then Chen Hu put away the Spirit Boat and they all walked out of the courtyard.

Along the way, everyone chatted and laughed with Chen Changming, and their attitudes changed dramatically.

In their view, Chen Bai, who possessed a top-tier gold-elemental magic sword, was simply too powerful.

Since they'll be teaming up together in the future, Chen Bai will naturally need to take care of them.

Upon arriving at the Council Hall of the Tenth Flag, the group encountered the Flag Master, Zheng Xian. They handed over the Spirit Boat and the slain Demon Beast, and then Chen Changming explained the circumstances surrounding Liao Yunfang's demise.

When Zheng Xian heard that Chen Changming was a sword cultivator with a top-tier metal-type magic sword, his Zheng Xian changed, and he looked at the honest-looking rogue cultivator in front of him with newfound respect.

"Go back and rest. I'll make a note of this and arrange for a new Incense Master to go there after some time."

Zheng Xian said.

Everyone nodded their thanks and then left, returning to the courtyard of the Ninth Incense Shop.

Chen Hu strode into the courtyard, head held high. Looking at the bright sunshine and the gentle breeze, he couldn't help but click his tongue and say, "The weather's exceptionally nice today, don't you think?"

"Good!"

Everyone laughed knowingly and went back to their rooms to cultivate.

Chen Changming returned to his room and smiled silently. It seemed he had eliminated the female demon for Ninth Incense, which drew applause from everyone.

After cultivating tirelessly in the room for over twenty days, just as another operation to slay demonic beasts was about to begin, the newly appointed Ninth Incense Master appeared.

"Fellow colleagues, let me introduce myself! My name is He Changlie, from the Golden Sword Sect."

A middle-aged man in a blue robe stood in the courtyard with a faint smile on his face, introducing himself to the five remaining members of the Ninth Incense.

Golden Sword Sect?

Everyone was startled. This was a very famous sect in the Chu Kingdom. The entire sect cultivated Flying Sword and had strong combat power. In the past years, the disciples of the Golden Sword Sect had also shone brightly in the fight against the Demonized Beast, and their reputation had spread far and wide.

"Greetings, Incense Master."

Everyone clasped their hands in greeting.

"You are welcome."

He Changlie smiled, then looked at everyone and his expression turned serious. He said, "We still have a few days left. Everyone should rest well. This time, we've been assigned to slay Demon Beast in the Demonic Qi for two months, followed by a month of rest. This will be a tough battle, so everyone should prepare early. If you're short of pills, buy them promptly."

Two months?

Everyone was startled, not expecting it to last so long.

Seeing the terrified expressions on everyone's faces, He Changlie sneered inwardly and said calmly, "Within two months, each person is required to kill seventy Demon Beast. If you fail to do so, you may voluntarily extend the time. After the mission is completed, you may return to rest at any time."

"Alright, Incense Master."

Everyone nodded and dispersed.

Most people went out of the courtyard to buy some pills for combat.

"Chen Bai, come here."

Just as Chen Changming was about to go back inside, He Changlie suddenly stopped him.

He Changlie's eyes flickered, and he said thoughtfully, "I heard... you have a top-tier gold-type magic sword?"

"Yes, Incense Master."

Chen Changming nodded slightly.

He Changlie's face lit up with excitement, and he laughed, "Hmm... how about summoning it for me, the Incense Master, to take a look?"

Summon it?

Chen Changming frowned slightly, a bad possibility instantly flashing through his mind.
