Chapter 6

It had been a long time since the figure that made the sound disappeared, and Shen Fei's soul, which was in the red light space, stared blankly at the place where the figure had vanished, not uttering a word for a long time.

"Was that really my mother?"

From the self-claim of the voice just now, it seemed that the person was indeed his mother. Shen Fei slowly calmed down, his mind racing. He immediately thought that since his mother could make a sound in this space, it must be related to the pendant on his arm. It seemed that this pendant, which he had worn around his neck since childhood, also concealed some extremely secret matters.

The Heavenly Residual Demon Art, the message left by his mother.

These two bizarre events made Shen Fei realize that the arm-shaped pendant must be a very crucial item. However, now that he had just broken through to the first level of the Dan Qi realm, he did not yet have the ability to unravel these secrets. All he could do now was to work hard to improve his strength.

Finally, he gathered his thoughts and focused his gaze. He discovered that after the general outline of the Heavenly Residual Demon Art, there was another section of densely packed small characters, with the first three large characters particularly clear.

"Right Arm Chapter?"

Murmuring these three words softly, Shen Fei directly turned to the content of the Right Arm Chapter. After reading the newly appeared Right Arm Chapter, he was filled with shock.

On the continent, the main focus of cultivation was Dan Qi, and as humans, physical strength was the only weakness. Compared to spirit beasts or Dan Devils, humans had the weakest physical strength.

The Right Arm Chapter of the Heavenly Residual Demon Art, however, was a technique to strengthen the physical body. Although it only included the cultivation method for the right arm's physical strength, it was like a tailor-made solution for Shen Fei, who only had one right arm left.

The Right Arm Chapter described how to unblock the meridians in the right arm, making the entire right arm absorb the energy of heaven and earth faster. Once the meridians were unblocked, the right arm could store more energy, and during combat, the burst of power would be greater.

The Heavenly Residual Demon Art originally allowed the flesh and skin to absorb the energy of heaven and earth, which was very different from the general Dan Qi cultivation methods. Therefore, although Shen Fei was shocked when he saw the Right Arm Chapter, he was more pleased than surprised.

"The Right Arm Chapter of the Heavenly Residual Demon Art can be cultivated after breaking through to the first level of the Ordinary Body Realm. Each level can unblock three meridians, and when the right arm is fully developed, it can split mountains!"

At the end of the Right Arm Chapter, there was such a passage.

Shen Fei knew that the human body had countless meridians, and the method of opening meridians by soul physicians was to open more meridians in the human body, making the cultivation process faster. Now, the Heavenly Residual Demon Art stated that three meridians could be unblocked at each level, which was similar to the soul physicians' method of opening meridians, but...

"Ordinary Body Realm?"

These three words made Shen Fei somewhat puzzled, as the cultivation methods he had encountered were all Dan Qi cultivation, divided into three major realms: Dan Qi, Lesser Dan, and Greater Dan, each realm divided into ten levels. According to Shen Fei's feeling, he was currently at the first level of the Dan Qi realm, but what was this Ordinary Body Realm?

"Who cares? Let's try to unblock the meridians in the right arm first!"

Shen Fei instantly dismissed these useless terms from his mind. What he was interested in now was how strong his right arm would become after unblocking these three meridians.

The night passed without incident, and the east was just beginning to brighten.

Shen Fei's first night at Changning Sect quietly ended in cultivation. After a night of cultivation, the results were undoubtedly gratifying.

The three meridians in his right arm had been completely unblocked, and Shen Fei, who clearly felt the changes in his right arm, was filled with surprise. This bizarre Heavenly Residual Demon Art indeed did not disappoint him.

Opening his eyes, a faint trace of blood-red light flashed in Shen Fei's eyes, but even he did not notice this. Gently touching the arm pendant on his chest, after the events of the previous night, this arm pendant had taken on a deeper meaning, as it contained messages from his mother.

"Senior Brother Shen Fei, are you up?"

Just as Shen Fei was deep in thought, a voice suddenly came from outside the room, followed by the sound of knocking. Shen Fei leaped out of bed, opened the door, and saw his junior brother, the chubby Erhu.

"Erhu, good morning!"

Shen Fei had a good impression of the honest Erhu, and with his mood pleasant, he greeted him with a smile. Erhu, however, scratched his head and said, "Senior Brother Shen Fei, Elder Li Mu instructed me to take you directly to the training ground. All the senior brothers are already there for morning practice."

Shen Fei recalled Li Mu's words from yesterday, nodded, and gently closed the door, then followed Erhu out of the courtyard. On the way, Erhu kept introducing the situation at Changning Sect, giving Shen Fei a basic understanding of the sect.

Although Changning Sect's strength was far inferior to Lieryun Palace, the area of the sect was almost the same. Perhaps the land prices in Ningcheng could not compare to the capital city, but Shen Fei followed Erhu for a long time before a spacious square appeared ahead, which was likely the training ground mentioned by Li Mu and Erhu.

"Hey! Ha! Huh!"

On the vast training ground, hundreds of young disciples of Changning Sect were training their bodies, a scene Shen Fei had also seen at Lieryun Palace.

On the continent, humans mainly cultivated Dan Qi, but they would never abandon the cultivation of their physical strength. The earlier the cultivation of the physical body, the better. Therefore, these young disciples spent one or two hours each day training their physical strength, just like the current training ground of Changning Sect.

"Shen Fei, Erhu, you're here!"

As Shen Fei and Erhu stepped into the training ground, Elder Li Mu quickly walked over. Hearing his greeting, Shen Fei also respectfully responded. On the way, Erhu had already introduced Elder Li Mu, who was responsible for the cultivation supervision of the young generation in the sect. Seeing him on the training ground was not unexpected.

"Alright, everyone, stop for a moment!"

After greeting Shen Fei, Li Mu clapped his hands and shouted loudly. Hearing Li Mu's shout, the hundreds of people on the square stopped their actions. When they saw Shen Fei beside Li Mu, a look of realization flashed in their eyes.

For these young disciples, some full of interest and others full of disdain, Li Mu did not pay much attention, and said, "This is Shen Fei from Lieryun Palace. From now on, we are all fellow disciples and should help and love each other!"

After Li Mu's words, Shen Fei responded loudly, "I am new here, please take care of me, senior brothers!"

A year of low ebb had indeed made Shen Fei's personality exceptionally low-key. If it were a year ago, even under someone else's roof, he would never have said such words. Hearing Shen Fei's words, Li Mu slowly nodded, thinking that this young man from Lieryun Palace seemed to know his place.

However, Shen Fei's low-key attitude did not gain the approval of everyone in Changning Sect. As soon as he finished speaking, a somewhat inappropriate voice coldly said, "Junior Brother Shen Fei, why don't you tell us why you were expelled from Lieryun Palace? Our Changning Sect is not a place for just anyone to enter."

These words hit a sore spot for Shen Fei. Being expelled from Lieryun Palace had already been widely discussed in Changning Sect. Even though he had not arrived, the young generation of Changning Sect already knew his story. Being directly confronted with this was clearly meant to give him a hard time.

Seeing Shen Fei's expression change, Erhu immediately shouted, "Senior Brother Yuan An, how can you..."

However, Erhu's words were cut off by the voice, "Erhu, when did it become your turn to speak? I am asking this... Junior Brother Shen Fei."

This time, Shen Fei finally saw the person speaking. The tall young man at the front of the young disciples was Senior Brother Yuan An, as Erhu had mentioned. Seeing the disdain and cold smile on his face, Shen Fei knew that this guy had been planning this for a long time.

It seemed that Erhu's status in the sect was indeed not high. Being shouted at by Yuan An, he immediately turned red and dared not speak again. However, Shen Fei calmly responded, "Decline in cultivation and disability, these two reasons, are they satisfactory, Senior Brother Yuan An?"

Seeing Shen Fei say these reasons that would be extremely embarrassing for most people with a blank expression, Li Mu actually thought a bit more highly of this young man. Li Mu did not know that a year had made Shen Fei see through the warmth and coldness of human relationships, and he would not do things that would make him suffer for the sake of face.

Hearing this, Yuan An was stunned for a moment, but then his cold smile deepened, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, the former top genius of Lieryun Palace, to fall to such a state, truly pitiful and lamentable!"

Just as Shen Fei was about to speak, a female voice said sternly, "Yuan An, we are all fellow disciples now, so please be quiet."

Shen Fei was surprised and looked up to see a young woman standing at the front of the young disciples. She wore a green dress, was tall, and though not stunningly beautiful, her slightly furrowed brows added a unique charm.

Seeing Shen Fei's confusion, Erhu leaned in and whispered, "This is Senior Sister Lan Bing, the only one in the sect who can keep Senior Brother Yuan An in check."

Shen Fei nodded, but Yuan An quickly changed his expression and said, "Since Senior Sister Lan Bing has spoken, I will be quiet." Then he turned and stared at Shen Fei with a look of amazement, "I've heard that Junior Brother Shen Fei has quite a good relationship with women. I wonder why the daughter of the Lieryun Palace Master didn't come with you to Changning Sect?"

This sudden question made Shen Fei's calm expression instantly turn extremely dark. If the humiliation and oppression from Tang Ning and others of Lieryun Palace could be ignored, the only thing that could make him angry was Shangguan Yu's betrayal. This Yuan An was truly detestable.

Yuan An probably knew about this matter beforehand. Seeing Shen Fei's expression change, he felt a great sense of satisfaction. The person next to him immediately chimed in, "Senior Brother Yuan An is overthinking. With the status of the Lieryun Palace Master, how could he let his daughter follow a disabled person who has lost all his cultivation?"

"
