Demon Sect Cultivation: I Can Disable Debuffs

Chapter 39 - Stalking



Chapter 39 Stalking

However, he did not know that Zhou Wenting and the other two were also secretly sizing him up.

“That’s Zhang Chen?”

“Yes.”

“He’s only at the seventh level of Qi Refinement. Are you sure Sun Jian died at his hands?”

“Maybe Li Mumin gave him something to protect himself.”

Soon, the inner sect disciples arrived at the Internal Affairs Hall.

Zhang Chen stood in front of the window and handed over his identity token. “I’m here to receive my assigned location.”

“Senior brother, please wait a moment.” After confirming his identity, the Internal Affairs disciple began to flip through a book. “Senior brother Zhang, your assigned location is Ling’an City, and here’s the map.’ “Thank you, Junior Brother.” Zhang Chen took the map and turned to leave.

There were still people waiting in line behind him, and he didn’t want to delay too long. Only after leaving the Internal Affairs Hall did he open the map to check.

This map was much larger than the previous one. It even included three surrounding mortal kingdoms.

Soon, he found Ling’an City on the map.

Ling’an City was 1,200 miles away from the Blood God Sect. At an ordinary person’s speed, the round trip alone would take over two months.

Meanwhile, outside the Internal Affairs Hall, many inner disciples were loudly shouting, “Elk City, Elk City, who’s going to Elk City?”

“Jinhua City, Jinhua City, who’s going to Jinhua City?”

Zhang Chen had a feeling that he had just stepped out of the train station in his past life.

He heard someone shout Ling’an City, but instead of going there, he looked for the figures of Zhou Wenting and the other two in the crowd.

“Nothing?”

Zhang Chen canned the crowd but didn’t see the three of them.

When he entered the Internal Affairs Hall to check again, he still didn’t see them. They had probably already left.

Suddenly, an outer sect disciple came to him and asked, “Are you Senior Brother Zhang Chen?”

“Yes.” Zhang Chen replied with a nod.

“Someone asked me to give this to you,” the outer disciple said, handing him a note.

Zhang Chen already had a guess as to what it might be.

He took the note and opened it. Sure enough, it was the location Zhou Wenting and the other two were assigned to.

A small smile appeared on Zhang Chen’s face. He put away the note and took out a water bag containing 10 bowls of blood essence that he had prepared earlier.

“Junior Brother, can you please give this water bag to Wang Zhengang in the beast garden?” Zhang Chen asked the outer sect disciple.

“I’ll make sure to deliver it,” the outer sect disciple replied respectfully.

After the outer sect disciple left, Zhang Chen opened the map and looked for the names of the cities where Zhou Wenting and the other two were assigned.

The three of them were not assigned to the same city and were a bit far apart.

Jiang Xianghong was the closest to the Blood God Sect, only 400 miles away.

“I’ll go and kill Jiang Xianghong first.” After making up his mind, Zhang Chen walked towards the sect’s exit.

With the horse demon as his mount, his speed was faster than most people. Even if he rushed to three different places, he wouldn’t be much slower than others.

Instead, he was worried that Zhou Wenting and the other two would delay him if they took too long on the road.

At the entrance of the sect’s gate, the 10 direct disciples under Patriarch Black Blood were busy, constantly making hand gestures and cursing the inner disciples who were going out on missions.

Zhang Chen quietly walked past them and stood at the back of the line.

Meanwhile, outside of the Blood God Sect, two figures were closely watching the exit of the illusion array.

“Senior Brother Zhou, are we really giving up on this mission?”

“Li Mumin might use this opportunity to attack us, so we absolutely cannot go to the location assigned by the sect.”

“What about our mission then?”

“With our connections and reputation, it shouldn’t be difficult for us to ask for a few talented mortals with spiritual roots to fill the quota. At most, we’ll use demon blood to trade.”

“Then, should we wait for Zhang Chen to come out and follow him to a deserted place to capture him?”

“Right, once we capture him, we’ll try to interrogate him to find out the source of his blood essence. If we can find out where Li Mumin’s blood essence comes from, maybe we won’t have to support Xu Yixian to reach the Foundation Establishment realm.”

The two people talking were Zhou Wenting and Jiang Xianghong.

They were unwilling to sacrifice their blood essence to help Xu Yixian build his foundation, so they pretended to separate from him and secretly came to ambush Zhang Chen, hoping to obtain the secret source of his blood essence. Unlike Zhang Chen who asked for information from someone else, their choice was to wait for him to come out and ambush him. After all, no matter where they were assigned, they would all come out from the sect’s exit. They just needed to keep an eye on the exit and quietly follow him.

From their conversation, it was clear that they were afraid of Li Mumin’s retaliation and dared not go to the place where the sect’s allocation was made.

If Zhang Chen were to head over, they would definitely fail.

However, by chance, they had a chance to meet again.

“Hide, Zhang Chen is coming out!”

At the exit of the Illusory Formation, Zhang Chen looked around.

Previously, the illusion formation was flawless and very realistic, but now it looked like an ink painting with many flaws and some distortion. His Spiritual Eye Technique was already showing results. Although he could not directly see through the illusion array, he could tell that it was an illusion and distinguish whether the scene in front of him was real or not. Zhang Chen was very satisfied with this and believed that when his eyes were completely transformed into spiritual eyes, he would definitely be able to see through the illusion formation.

After taking out the map and confirming the direction, Zhang Chen used the Light Body Technique and walked towards the city assigned to Jiang Xianghong. Now, people were coming out of the Blood God Sect exit one after another, and there were many disciples heading in the same direction. It was not convenient to ride a horse demon to hurry. After Zhang Chen had walked a distance, Zhou Wenting and Jiang Xianghong came out of their hiding place.

“Great. He’s alone. Let’s follow him.” Both of them were at the ninth level of Qi Refinement and were very confident in themselves.

With the Light Body Technique, he could travel much faster than before and without much effort.

His body was as light as a feather. With a light tap of his feet, he had a feeling of floating up in the air.

It was as if he was on the moon, where gravity was not strong, and he could easily hop and jump forward.

Unconsciously, he had walked 50 miles. As he got further and further away from the Blood God Sect, he saw fewer and fewer disciples of the sect around him. However, Zhang Chen frowned. After cultivating the Divine Forging Technique, although he was at the seventh level of Qi Refinement, he had the willpower of the ninth level of Qi Refinement.

Since leaving the sect, he had felt as though someone was watching him.

At first, there were other disciples from the same sect around him. He thought that they were observing each other, so he did not pay much attention.

He had already walked so far, but the feeling of being spied on had not gone away. “Is someone targeting me?” Zhang Chen’s eyes narrowed, but he pretended not to notice and continued on his way. Even cultivators with spiritual power needed to rest.

After walking for another ten miles and seeing that it was getting late, Zhang Chen found a sheltered place to meditate and rest.

In fact, he had been vigilant of his surroundings the entire time.

A mile away was also the limit of the perception of the ninth level of Qi Refinement. Zhou Wenting stopped in his tracks. “He stopped. He’s probably planning to rest for the night.”

“Then what should we do?” Jiang Xianghong asked.

Zhou Wenting thought for a moment. “Let’s go around him and ambush him from the front.”

“Great!”

The two of them walked in the other direction.

The bright moon was high in the sky, and Zhang Chen hadn’t slept all night. He was feeling a little disappointed. “Aren’t they going to attack me while I’m resting at night?”
