Zheng Lei turned around and left the peak of the Cloudmist Peak. As a precaution, he disposed of Xu Shi's corpse before leaving and threw it into the bottomless abyss below the peak of the Cloudmist Peak.
It was a dangerous place for the sect to train. It was filled with countless low-level prehistoric ferocious beasts. If Xu Shi's corpse was thrown down there, it would definitely not be left behind in a short period of time. No one would notice.
Of course, Zheng Lei did not think that the Purple Spirit Sect would not be able to find out who killed Xu Shi just because he destroyed the corpse.
After all, this was the Primordial World!
In Untainted Land, Sages could even deduce the operation of the Way of Heaven. It was too easy for them to predict a mortal's past deeds with the Way of Heaven.
Taking a step back, there was no need for any divination. As long as he checked the disciples in the sect and saw who else came to the top of Yunwu Peak during the time Xu Shi came, he would definitely be able to find out about Zheng Lei.
Zheng Lei only wanted to fight for this time gap.
He would try his best to increase his cultivation level while he could hide the truth. As long as he had great strength, he would not be afraid of Earth Level Deity Zi Yao, the sect leader of the Purple Spirit Sect, let alone Xu Feng and Elder Jin.
"And this period of time probably won't be too long. At most, it'll be four or five days.”Zheng Lei had a strong premonition.
After descending from the peak of Cloudmist Peak, Zheng Lei returned to his usual cultivation abode. It was a shabby abode that was three meters tall and had a total area of no more than fifty square meters.
Due to his poor cultivation aptitude, he did not live on Violet Cloud Peak, where the Purple Spirit Sect disciples lived and where the Spirit Qi was denser.
Instead, he lived on a nameless mountain peak that was less than a hundred meters tall and had poor spiritual energy.
In fact, he had also lived on Violet Cloud Peak in the beginning. However, because his cultivation aptitude was too poor, he was jointly pushed out of Violet Cloud Peak by many disciples in the sect. Among them, the one who jumped the most fiercely was Xu Shi, who had just been accidentally killed by Zheng Lei.
After returning to the nameless cave abode, Zheng Lei had nothing to do. He laid on the stone bed where he used to cultivate in boredom.
"Ding dong! Your shadow has killed a Fire Ant in the Fantasy World. Obtained 15 EXP.”
"Ding dong! Your shadow has killed a Fire Ant in the Fantasy World. Obtained 15 EXP.”
"Ding dong! Your shadow has killed a Fire Ant in the Fantasy World. Obtained 15 EXP.”
……
Zheng Lei was almost intoxicated as he listened to the system notifications ringing in his ears from time to time.
Previously, when he was fighting Xu Shi and even on the way back, the system notification had never stopped. At the beginning, every half an hour, the system notification would ring in his mind.
But now, the time had been shortened to almost every two to three minutes, there would be such a sound.
Zheng Lei guessed that it was very likely because the shadow clone had leveled up as well, and its strength had increased, making it easier to kill the Fire Ants!
In the next few days, Zheng Lei crazily AFK Farming to increase his cultivation.
As his shadow gained experience and leveled up, the speed at which his shadow killed fire ants in the fantasy world became faster and faster.
[Ding-dong. Your shadow has killed a Fire Ant in the Fantasy World. Obtained 15 EXP.]”
"Ding-dong. Your shadow has begun to rest. After the rest, it will continue to level up!”
[Ding-dong. Your shadow has finished resting and is beginning to hack…]”
After that, Zheng Lei would hear this voice every day.
Zheng Lei had already gotten used to it and was gradually immune to the system's notifications.
On the afternoon of the third day, Zheng Lei finally broke through the bottleneck of the perfected Foundation Establishment stage.
"First stage of the Purple Mansion Realm!"
"Purple Prefecture Realm! "I actually reached the Purple Prefecture Realm. This is a realm that I didn't even dare to think about in the past. Now that I have the Shadow Hack Farming System, I can easily reach it.”
Zheng Lei felt the incomparably violent and powerful energy in his body and immediately said in satisfaction.
"With a cultivation at the first level of the Purple Prefecture Realm, although I'm still probably not a match for Xu Shi's brother, Xu Feng, I'm already not far off.”Zheng Lei estimated his and Xu Feng's strength.
"Next, I should continue AFK Farming to level up and completely close the gap between me and Xu Shi.”
After another two to three days, Zheng Lei's cultivation level increased to the fourth level of the Purple Prefecture Realm.
After his cultivation level increased to the Purple Prefecture Realm, Zheng Lei realized that the speed at which his shadow AFK Farming increased his cultivation level had slowed down. This made him wonder if the speed at which his shadow AFK Farming System increased his cultivation level would stop when his cultivation level increased to the Nascent Soul realm and the Tribulation Transcendence realm.
However, Zheng Lei did not know that the matter of him killing Xu Shi had already been discovered.
Purple Spirit Sect, Purple Glow Peak.
In the place with the densest spiritual energy, there was a spacious and luxurious cave abode with all kinds of supplies.
"Senior Brother Xu Feng, Junior Brother Xu Shi has been missing for three days. According to my investigation, Junior Brother Xu Shi went to the top of Yunwu Peak on the day he disappeared. It is said that he gave the task of refining pills and logging to Zheng Lei and Elder Jin.”
"However, in the end, the disciples only saw Zheng Lei descend the mountain and not Junior Brother Xu Shi. I suspect that it was Zheng Lei who killed Junior Brother Xu Shi.”
A young man with a gloomy face and a terrifying aura was sitting cross-legged on the stone platform in the middle of the cave dwelling. He looked 70 - 80% similar to Xu Shi.
He was Xu Shi's elder brother, Xu Feng. He was a Purple Spirit Sect disciple who looked young. He stood respectfully in front of Xu Feng and reported.
"Zheng Lei? Was it that trash who was born with narrow meridians and poor cultivation aptitude? A year after entering the sect, his cultivation was only at the first layer of the foundation establishment stage?”Xu Feng frowned.
At this time, the Primordial World was still in the middle of the Primordial World, and the spiritual energy was much richer than in the later generations.
Therefore, the cultivation from the Qi Refining Stage to the Foundation Establishment Stage could be completed in just three months by talented cultivation geniuses!
Those with ordinary cultivation aptitude could also successfully cultivate it in half a year!
The worst was those who had only completed their cultivation from the Aura Refining Stage to the Building Foundation Stage in a year!
They were born with narrow meridians, so they had no future in cultivation. Even if they tried to cultivate, they would not be able to cultivate anything. Instead, they would waste their time.
After passing the Foundation Establishment Realm and entering the Purple Prefecture Realm, the difficulty of cultivation barely increased by one realm. After that, the increase in each small realm was basically calculated in years.
"Yes, Senior Brother Xu Feng, the one who entered the sect for a year and only cultivated to the first layer of the foundation establishment stage, Zheng Lei.”The disciple nodded.
"No, I can't! It was impossible. He was in the first layer of the foundation establishment state, and my brother Xu Shi was also in the first layer of the foundation establishment state. He definitely couldn't have killed my brother.”Xu Feng thought for a moment and felt that this possibility was too unreasonable. Then, he denied the disciple's guess.
"But senior brother Xu Feng. On the day Junior Brother Xu Shi went missing, only Zheng Lei had gone to the peak of Cloudmist Peak. None of the other disciples had gone to the peak of Cloudmist Peak.”
The young disciple looked a little hesitant. It seemed that he was not too sure whether Xu Shi was killed by Zheng Lei or not.
"Could it be that someone else killed my brother and then framed Zheng Lei?”A cold light flashed in Zheng Lei's eyes.
As the most talented genius disciple of the Purple Spirit Sect, he had cultivated to the great circle of the Purple Prefecture Realm in five years. He had often offended many enemies in the sect.
"It's not impossible." The Purple Spirit Sect disciple standing below Xu Feng thought for a moment and said.
"Alright, you may leave! " Whether Zheng Lei killed my brother or not, as long as he has the slightest suspicion, I won't let him off. Even if he didn't kill my brother, he's still involved in this matter. He has to die with my brother.”
Xu Feng's eyes flashed with a trace of cold killing intent.
As for the fact that his younger brother had once humiliated Zheng Lei, he didn't care at all.
"Alright, Senior Brother Xu Feng."
This disciple who had just joined the sect not long ago turned around and left. He even felt a little pity for Zheng Lei in his heart.
Of all people, he had to offend Senior Brother Xu Feng. Now, he was probably going to die.
However, they didn't know that the seemingly impossible thing was actually the truth.
Xu Feng would rather kill the wrong person than let Zheng Lei go. Zheng Lei was the murderer of his younger brother. From this perspective, it was reasonable for him to seek revenge from Zheng Lei…
……
"Boom!"
"Zheng Lei! Come out and die!"
