Chapter 47 Eighth Grade
"Chen'er, why waste time talking to a dying person?"

The old voice rolled through the hall like thunder, and the pressure of an eighth-grade warrior came crashing down!

Chu Ning's knees sank suddenly, and the blue bricks shattered into powder under his feet.

Wang Chongshan, the third elder of the Wang family, came slowly over, leaning on a red copper crutch. The crutch was carved with a Taotie beast with lava dripping from its mouth, and wherever it passed, the stone bricks turned into a boiling pool of slurry.

"Wu Hou Mansion will protect you?" His cloudy pupils locked onto Chu Ning. "Today, I will teach you what...rules mean."

The moment the crutch was raised, Chu Ning's vision was filled with red.

Wang Chongshan stood aside with his hands behind his back, his eyes solemn: "If you are willing to submit to the Wang family, your sister will be safe."

"Wishful thinking!" Chu Ning sneered.

The Burning Sky Force instantly transformed into nine fire dragons that circled and attacked, and the Frost Lightning Shield was torn apart like thin paper.

The moment the breath of death licked my throat—

"When will it be your Wang family's turn to tear up the roster of Wuhou Mansion?!"

A heavy black iron halberd came through the air, its blade wrapped in the coldness of a northern blizzard. Nine fire dragons wailed and froze into ice sculptures.

Zhao Tianyu stepped into the hall wearing the Meteorite Armor, and every step he took made Wang Chongshan's lava field retreat three feet.

He raised his hand and threw out a golden volume, on which the two words "Zhenwu" written on the cold jade seal were as bright as the sun.

"Chu Ning's name has been included in the list of top-ranked officials in Wuhou Mansion." He glanced at Wang Chongshan, whose face was ashen. "If you touch him again, it will be like declaring war on the 300,000-strong Zhenwu Army in the northern border."

The registrar trembled as he held up the golden book. The ink on the Class A list glowed with an icy blue light.

Wang Chen's Burning Heaven Power gradually extinguished under Zhao Tianyu's pressure. He stared at Chu Ning's hand pressing on the roster, and suddenly laughed grimly: "In the Qingyun Arena, I will personally break your bones."

Chu Ning dipped his brush in ink and wrote with the last stroke like a knife: "I'll wait."

Chu Ning stepped out of the registration hall. The biting cold wind blew the fine snow into his collar, but it couldn't suppress the cold sweat oozing from his back.

When Wang Chongshan tapped the ground with his lava crutch, the horrifying scene of the floor tiles within a radius of ten feet melting into a pool of slurry still flashed before his eyes. The pressure from the eighth-grade warrior was like a branding iron, leaving a trembling mark on his spine.

"Lord Zhao, thank you for your help today." Chu Ning bowed solemnly.

Zhao Tianyu just smiled indifferently: "Forget about useless thanks. If you really want to thank me, prove your worth."

After that, he walked away.

Chu Ning took a deep breath, his eyes cold. Prove your worth?

The sound of Zhao Tianyu's heavy black iron armor rubbing against each other gradually faded away, but those words were like an ice spike piercing his heart.

Chu Ning looked at the palm of his hand, and saw three blood marks deeply embedded in the flesh. Those were the marks left by the aftermath of Wang Chen's Burning Sky Force.

After returning to the villa of Wuhou Mansion, Chu Ning was silent for a long time.

Chu Ning's eyes flickered slightly, and his elder sister's comforting voice and smile appeared in his mind.

"Sister..."

Chu Ning's fist trembled slightly.

He closed his eyes, and scenes emerged in his mind.

That night, Sister, wearing her tattered outer robe, handed him the remaining warm rice porridge. Her hands trembled slightly in the cold wind, but a gentle smile lingered on her lips: "Ning'er, eat quickly."

They were his only family, his only blood relatives.

But now, she was trapped in darkness, and he was powerless to do anything!
No! This can't go on!

Wang Chen's sinister smile was still ringing in his ears, and the candlelight reflected the shadow in Chu Ning's eyes. Chu Ning raised his head, and the struggle in his eyes turned into determination in an instant.

"No matter what the cost..."

"I want to become stronger!"

Chu Ning took a deep breath and took out the jade box with trembling fingers.

The lid of the box was opened, and a fist-sized Nine-Revolution Mysterious Yang Fruit lay quietly inside, its skin burning like the scorching sun, emitting a blazing glow.

He ran out of time.

It was impossible for him to learn the art of alchemy in such a short period of time, let alone refine the Xuanyang Fruit into a mild pill.

The candlelight suddenly went out the moment the jade box was opened, and the core of the Nine-Transformation Mysterious Yang Fruit, as red as lava, illuminated the walls.

Chu Ning's fingertips hovered above the peel, the blue-eyed snow fox's warning and Wang Chen's sneer intertwined and torn apart in his mind:

"A mortal who swallows this fruit will have his meridians completely destroyed!" "On the Qingyun Arena, I will crush your bones inch by inch!"

He can't wait.

At this moment, he could only place his hope on the Hunyuan Divine Order again.

"If I swallow the Xuanyang Fruit and can't withstand the violent energy, will the Hunyuan Divine Order be triggered again and match the corresponding skills?"

he does not know.

But this was his only chance.

"Even if it means...consuming my lifespan!"

He has no choice.

"Fight."

"Click——"

The sound of the fruit shell breaking was particularly clear in the dead silence. Chu Ning's pupils suddenly shrank, and he stuffed the fruit into his mouth.

The moment the fruit flesh touched the back of his tongue, his throat felt like it was being poured down by lava. Chu Ning stumbled and bumped into the bronze medicine cauldron, causing it to cave in with a thud. A violent current of heat blasted from his internal organs to his limbs. His skin cracked, and golden-red blood oozed out and ignited, burning black holes in the chamber floor.

"Is this... the pain of burning body?" Chu Ning roared, his vocal cords had been burned, and the sound exploded directly from his chest.

The severe pain came like a tide.

A terrible heat wave burst out from inside and outside the body, the ground cracked instantly, and the air was ignited with tiny sparks.

"what--!"

Chu Ning couldn't help but roar, his eyes were red, his consciousness was almost swallowed by this violent energy, and his sanity began to collapse.

When he was on the verge of death, Chu Ning's sea of ​​consciousness suddenly became silent.

A ray of ice-blue light shone from the heart, and the shadow of the Hunyuan Divine Order was suspended in it. The shadow raised its hand and pointed at Chu Ning's eyebrows. A vast stream of information poured in, carrying ancient maxims:

"Exchange life for life, and use disaster to prove the truth."

[Hunyuan Divine Order, advance payment in case of emergency detected, matching...]

[Matching completed, "Hunyuan Body Refining Method"]

[Advance payment cost: Consume three years of lifespan]

[Repayment Price: After advance payment, you will need to undergo the baptism of the Hunyuan Tribulation. After repayment, the next advance payment effect will be unlocked!]

[Currently available advance skills, martial arts: zero]

"bring it on!"

"Ugh—!"

Chu Ning's left hand carbonized in the Xuanyang flames, the charred skin peeling off with a crisp sound like shattering porcelain. The newly formed finger bones weren't white jade, but dark gold bones covered in blood-red lightning patterns.

Nine blood-red chains pierced into Chu Ning's body from the void, nailing into vital points such as the center of the eyebrows, heart, and dantian.

Before Chu Ning had time to think about what the "Hunyuan Tribulation" was, the shrill cry of the Hunyuan Divine Order pierced through his sea of ​​consciousness, and countless chains stretched out from the void, but they did not restrain Xuan Yang's power, but instead led the runaway energy into the black hole deep in his dantian.

[Hunyuan Body Refining Method: Use the body as a furnace and refine the stars into bones]

When the golden light of the "Hunyuan Body Refining Method" pierced into his soul, Chu Ning felt like he was thrown into a star-forging furnace.

The power of Xuan Yang is no longer a tyrant, but a tempered iron hammer.

The first blow, the spine "cracked" and broke, the new vertebrae glowing with the cold light of meteorite iron;

The second blow, the heart exploded into a bloody mist, then beat like a drum as it reassembled;

The third hammer turned his eyes into ashes, and when he opened his eyes again, his pupils were branded with golden patterns of the sun.

As Chu Ning screamed, the chains turned into blood-red lightning patterns, permanently engraved on his shoulder blade.

He "saw" his spine transforming into the spine of a meteorite dragon, the blood pumped by his heart carrying star sand, and a vast prison of thunder emerging in his double pupils.

He raised his hand and squeezed it lightly, and the air made a crisp sound like shattering glass.

His body seemed to be made of diamond, and the hot energy flowed along his tendons and veins, completely burning the impurities in his bones. His blood became extremely pure, and every beat of his heart was like a roar of thunder, carrying astonishing power.

The original ninth-grade medium barrier was broken through in an instant!
Eighth grade, lower grade!
