After Chu Nan settled the snakes down, he stood up and was about to walk back when he realized that there were already more than ten figures chasing after him.
Chu Nan smiled as he walked over. This group of people was none other than the Chen Residence disciples that Chu Nan had saved earlier.
The one running at the front was Chen Tao, who had an anxious look on his face. He was drenched in sweat at this moment, and there were more than ten disciples following closely behind him. At this moment, they had already changed into new disciple uniforms. Each of them looked radiant and full of combat strength.
"Where are those datura snakes? Damn it, just now we brothers were put in such a sorry state by them. Now that we've recovered our essence force, we must accompany them to have a good game. Brother, your cultivation base is only third rank Spirit Warrior, so don't put yourself in danger. We'll handle the matter of killing these snakes below.”
Chen Lan and a dozen other Chen Residence disciples who were standing behind Chen Tao were also grinding their fists.
Chu Nan did not pay much attention to them earlier, but now that he had taken a closer look at the disciples, he realized that some of them had fainted from the snake venom and had fully recovered.
"Brother Chu Nan, on behalf of our Chen Residence, I really want to thank you.”Chen Tao's tone was filled with excitement, and he was actually a little incoherent.
"Brother, your supreme-grade medicinal pill has not only allowed our cultivation base to recover to the peak of our Yuan Power, but also"
"And what? Brother, tell me slowly." Chu Nan was baffled by Chen Tao's excitement.
"Brother's pill is too effective. "Among the seventeen of us, except for two disciples who had already been devoured by the snakes and died, the other disciples who were originally on the verge of death were actually pulled out of death after taking your Essence Cultivating Pill and Poison Dispelling Pill. Not only did these disciples who were poisoned by the datura snake venom survive, but their cultivation realms also increased by one level! My sister Lan 'er was previously stuck at Stage Six Soul Master and was unable to break through. Now, she has actually broken through to Stage Seven and advanced to the late-stage Soul Master!”
"As for my cultivation base, I was originally a Stage Eight Soul Master. This time, I've actually advanced to Stage Nine. I'm already on the same level as Zheng Yu of the Zheng Clan. Moreover, I haven't completely absorbed the Essence Cultivating Pill in my body yet. If I completely absorb it, I should be able to break through to a major realm and advance to a Soul Grandmaster!”
"What did you say? Everyone's realm had increased by one level!”Chu Nan was also shocked.
No wonder top-grade medicinal pills were all priceless. Chu Nan had not expected that a single pill could forcefully raise the cultivation of these disciples by one level.
" I didn't expect the effects of the supreme-grade medicinal pill refined by Luo Jinbao to be so great."
Then, Chen Tao looked around and asked,"Where are the snakes?" I'm now full of energy and I must fight them. Brother Chu Nan, you can rest while I deal with them and witness the glory of our Chen brothers.”
" Uh…" Chu Nan was instantly speechless. He looked at the group of Chen Residence disciples who seemed to have been injected with chicken blood and felt that he could not explain himself to them.
Hence, Chu Nan said,"For some reason, these snakes suddenly retreated."”
"What is it? Retreat? Alright, then the next time we meet them, we must destroy their nest and take revenge for today!”Chen Tao said.
Chen Lan walked to Chu Nan's side and said,"This time, it was all thanks to Brother Chu Nan's help. Otherwise, not only would we not be able to complete the academy's mission, we would have died tragically here and brought shame to our clan.”
Then, the dozen or so disciples of the Chen family walked over and thanked Chu Nan. Chu Nan politely replied to them. In fact, he did not want to have too many entanglements with the Chen family. Before his strength had grown, the more people knew about him, the more troublesome it would be.
In the end, Chen Tao walked over and hugged Chu Nan's shoulders. He said affectionately,"Ping Yang Town, where Brother Chu Nan is located, is a territory of my Chen Residence. Speaking of which, we are also a family." In the future, if you need any help, just come to the Chen Residence and look for me.”
Chen Tao was a forthright man.
Looking at the group of Chen Residence disciples, Chu Nan could not help but exclaim in his heart about the vast heritage of a large clan.
The Chen Residence was one of the three great clans in Heavenly Fate City. Not only did the clan have many profound Yuan Arts and martial techniques, but the Tianyun Soul Academy would also give the Chen Residence a certain number of enrollment slots every year. Every year, many disciples would enter the Tianyun Soul Academy to cultivate. Usually, they would travel together with a dozen or so clansmen. After all, the people from their own clan were the most trustworthy. Traveling together in the great forest would greatly increase their safety. In his Chu Clan, the only person who could enter the Tianyun Soul Academy in recent years was his clan brother, Chu Chen.
At this time, the sky was getting dark and the moon was hanging in the sky. They found a safe place, made a bonfire, and set up a temporary tent. As one of the three great clans of Heavenly Fate City, the Chen Residence was extremely wealthy. They took out a lot of food and wine that they had brought along the way.
Beside the bonfire, Chu Nan and the rest of the Chen family were sitting around, drinking and chatting to their hearts 'content. At this moment, Chen Lan had already changed into an emerald green dress and was dancing beside the bonfire. Her graceful figure attracted the attention and cheers of the Chen family's disciples. Chu Nan did not expect that Chen Lan, who was so valiant in battle, would actually have such a graceful side to her.
"Brother Chen Tao, why did you come here this time? Why was he surrounded by snakes? The nest of the datura snakes should be deep in the forest.”Chu Nan voiced out his doubts.
"I don't know the details. This time, the academy gave us a mission to go to the forest to find the Ten Thousand Year Jade Lingzhi. We siblings led a group of brothers from the Chen Residence to carry out the orders. We were almost eaten by the Meta Beasts many times. After a narrow escape, we finally completed the mission and obtained the Ten Thousand Year Jade Lingzhi. However, for some reason, when we were about to return to the academy to exchange for contribution points, we suddenly discovered that we were surrounded by a group of snakes. Then, these snakes attacked us desperately as if they were waiting for us.”
"If it's like what you said, could there be someone who found out your route and deliberately framed you?”Chu Nan asked.
"I won't hide it from you, brother." Chen Tao pondered for a moment and said,"In the Heavenly Fate Academy, there are indeed cliques and infighting. Most of the people in the Soul Institute were talented disciples of the major clans in Heavenly Fate City. Because of the conflicts between clans due to interests, the disciples of these clans often schemed against each other. It was not uncommon for them to stab each other in the back.”
Chen Lan added," It's not just the disciples of the Soul Academy who are at loggerheads with each other. Even the teachers, deacons, and vice deans of the academy are not harmonious."”
"There are also conflicts of interest between the vice principals?”Chu Nan increasingly felt that the relationships in the Tianyunshen Soul Academy were complicated.
"Of course. The Tianyun Soul Academy had a dean and three vice deans. The dean is always in seclusion. I've been cultivating here for almost ten years, but I've never seen him. Usually, the three vice principals were in charge of the academy's affairs. Among them, Vice Principal Tan Guangqiang supports our Chen Clan, Vice Principal Zhang Guangtai supports the Zheng Clan, and Vice Principal Hu Fang, who is the best at alchemy, comes from the Hu Clan, so of course he supports the Hu Clan. In Heavenly Fate City, the Zheng Clan, Chen Clan, and Hu Clan often fought openly and covertly. Therefore, the three vice principals were also scheming against each other for their own interests.”Chen Tao said. As Chen Tao was also a core disciple, he had a very detailed understanding of some things in the academy.
Chen Tao was a forthright and honest person. Even though Chu Nan was only in Ping Yang Town, which belonged to the Chen family, the siblings did not treat Chu Nan as a subordinate. Instead, they treated their savior with special courtesy.
Currently, this group of Chen Residence disciples were all very excited. This was because they had already completed the mission assigned by the academy and obtained the Ten Thousand Year Jade Lingzhi. When they returned to the academy, each of them would be able to obtain a lot of academy contribution points. If they wanted to exchange for good origin techniques, martial arts, medicinal pills, and weapons in the academy, there was only one way, and that was to use contribution points to exchange.
Of course, this was not the most important thing. What made them the most excited was that after they swallowed the supreme-grade medicinal pills that Chu Nan gave them, their cultivation levels broke through their bottlenecks and rose by one level. Chen Tao, who had been stuck at the eighth rank Spirit Master for a long time, now smoothly advanced to the ninth rank, no longer having to be suppressed by the other genius Zheng Clan young master Zheng Yu. And his sister Chen Lan had also broken through to become a Stage Seven Spirit Master in one fell swoop, advancing to the Advanced Stage.
On this sleepless night with the bright bonfire, they were ecstatic, drinking, and chatting. They did not see that at the place where they were fighting with the snakes, there was a young man holding a piece of snake skin in his hand. If Chu Nan was here, he would definitely be able to recognize that this person was Zheng Ying from the Zheng family, who had attempted to kill Chu Nan at the Tianyun River.
He looked at the snake skin that had been sucked dry in his hand and said,"It seems that the datura snakes didn't kill them this time."”
Then, a Heavenly Phantom Long-tailed Eagle flew out from his body and flew a few hundred meters into the sky. Its eagle eyes then shot out two purple-black rays of light in the dark night sky, and the scene of Chu Nan and the Chen family gathering and chatting was completely visible.
This was the characteristic of his spirit soul, the Heavenly Phantom Long-tailed Eagle, and not a soul art. Other than awakening soul techniques, every spirit soul also possessed certain attributes. For example, Chu Nan's spirit soul, the Nine Yang Gourd, had attributes of immunity to poison and elemental energy recovery. Different from innate talent, this kind of attribute skill was innate. Moreover, it would increase with the increase of one's realm. It did not require the consumption of elemental energy and soul power. And soul techniques needed to be raised in cultivation level to be awakened. Activating them consumed extremely much essence energy and soul power.
Zheng Ying's cultivation base had already broken through to the fifth stage of the Soul Warrior realm. He could now use the Eagle Eye Technique with greater ease, and his leaping movements were as fast and vigorous as an eagle's.
He casually opened a small black cloth bag in his hand and sprinkled the white powder on the ground. Then, he smiled evilly and said," These scumbags of the Chen family, I'll let you live for a while. Wait until three o'clock in the middle of the night. Humph!”
He ran back and forth between the trees like an eagle, running deep into the forest.
