"Correct, the Octane Punch is perfect for dealing internal injuries to cultivators," Elder Jing said as she started laughing evilly.
Yang Wei shuddered slightly when he saw Elder Jing's evil expression, almost like she had used the Octane Punch on multiple people already.
"J-Jing Feng… how many people have you killed with Octane Punch?" Yang Wei decided to ask her for confirmation.
Instead of second-guessing, it was better off asking Elder Jing.
Meanwhile, Elder Jing curved her lips upward as she said, "Around a thousand people if not even more… I can't really remember since there are so many people seeking death and I was glad to send them on their journey of death."
Yang Wei laughed awkwardly as he regretted asking since Elder Jing's attitude started changing to a psychopath personality.
"A-Anyway, Jing Feng, should I follow this martial technique with this sandbag?" Yang Wei changed the topic.
He wasn't going to allow Elder Jing to continue to act weird nor asked who were the people that were seeking death.
After all, Yang Wei knows how much of a beauty Elder Jing is and only idiots would not covet her beauty or try to obtain her love through a disgusting and shrewd manner.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThus, Yang Wei would not dig a hole for himself and simply minded his own business.
Elder Jing pondered for a moment before shaking her head, "No, the sandbag is not good enough to test the beginner level of Octane Punch."
Afterward, Elder Jing walked toward a large tree and placed her hand in it.
She closed her eyes to sense the inside of the large tree before nodding her head in approval.
"You will use the beginner level of Octane Punch in this large tree and to succeed, I want you to be able to burst the tree open from the inside." Elder Jing then said.
Yang Wei stared at the large tree and wondered if he could even damage it from the inside.
"Be confident Yang Wei, and to make things spicier, you would swallow a Stomach Killer if you fail to do so by the end of the day," Elder Jing smiled evilly as she waved around the Stomach Killer in her hand.
Yang Wei paled when he saw the deadly Stomach Killer in Elder Jing's hand and wished that she had never succeeded in refining the pill ever.
'That Stomach Killer is going to be a bane in my cultivation path,' Yang Wei cried inwardly as he started walking toward the large tree.
Afterward, he took a deep breath before following the instruction from the marital technique.
Slowly but surely, Yang Wei managed to inject some of his true qi into his fist, causing a small gust of wind to pass by.
Elder Jing smiled briefly when Yang Wei had no problem completing the initial steps for Octane Punch.
'Yang Wei's improvement is really astronomical. If only he was born into a cultivator's family and not a mortal family then his achievement would have been insane,' Elder Jing exclaimed inwardly as she was shocked by the learning skills of Yang Wei.
She has never seen someone learning Octane Punch in such a swift and smooth manner.
Even though Yang Wei had to endure an unimaginable amount of pain and complains most of the time, he had never given up once.
His mouth may be complaining but his body has never moved an inch away after the first day of the whipping.
"Yang Wei, keep on practicing hard and try to burst the tree open from the inside. I will do some scouting in the meantime," Elder Jing then said as she left the area.
Yang Wei didn't turn around to face her as he continued to concentrate on his fist to circulate the true qi to produce the same effect that Elder Jing did previously.
While Yang Wei tried to figure out the process in the Octane Punch, Elder Jing had left far away from the area to meet up with Elder Pao Haung.
"Elder Pao Haung, have there been any changes to the disciples?" Elder Jing asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Replying to Elder Jing, although the disciples were a bit dissatisfied to not be allowed to enter the Pagoda, they still accepted it in the end," Elder Pao Huang replied respectfully with his hand cupped into a fist.
Elder Jing nodded.
"It's good that they listened to my instructions and didn't follow inside the Pagoda." Elder Jing then said in relief, shocking Elder Pao Huang as he wondered what would have happened if they actually entered.
Thus, with a bit of courage, Elder Pao Haung asked stutteringly, "E-Elder Jing, what was happening inside the Pagoda? This year, the mysterious realm has been acting really weird, especially the entrance to the Pagoda, which has become insanely difficult to open."
"I don't know much either but all I can tell you is that more than 70% of people that entered the Pagoda would die." Elder Jing shrugged her shoulders and said calmly.
Given the fact that the trial's difficulty has increased completely, Elder Jing was sure that not many disciples are able to survive in such an environment.
Although the trials for them may vary, it wouldn't stray much from what she and Yang Wei had to deal with.
"I see… then what instruction does Elder Jing have for me?" Elder Pao Huang nodded and asked for the reason for their meeting.
He was busy exploring the other areas with the disciples but Elder Jing had said to meet up through the communication device that they get for being an elder.
"I want you to gather the disciples back to the cave and stay there for a while. I suspect there is something dangerous lurking around the mysterious realm so you shall wait there until the end of the mysterious realm."
Afterward, Elder Jing kicked the ground slightly to leap up to a tree branch and started leaving Elder Pao Huang alone.
Before she disappeared, Elder Jing said, "I will be there soon with Yang Wei so that we can all leave safely."
