Reincarnated into World of Nine Heavens and Ten Earths

Chapter 24: Chapter-22: Zifeng's Shocking Power! Shocking Awakening! The Army for the Truly Righteous Path!



Everyone was overjoyed with their progress. And though everyone felt stronger than before no one except Yue Zifeng could attract Long Chen and his comrades' attention. They all followed Long Chen's bit amused gaze as they all looked at Yue Zifeng, they felt shockingly strong Astral energy unlike their which includes the four other 'Geniuses'. After being told by Shi Feng they all stared at Yue Zifeng more focusing with using their recently unlocked Astral Energy of the Starry Sky Art allowing them to see the very faint, almost transparent, manifestation of a dark sphere, an image of void with cluster of stars at the center forging sword like image.

The energy went through a few changes till the manifestation completely settled with a now normally visible dark sphere consisting of an enormous sword formed from clusters of start bounded together by the Will of The Sword, by Yue Zifeng's Sword Intent.

Everyone stared in shock till Long Chen explained a bit more about the Starry River of Sky Art, it's true origins of being from an Ancient Sect from Immortal World and how it works. Hearing which all of them stayed shocked for a while as Long Chen also explains that this technique could evolve with the practitioners' techniques and base element/foundation making them get reasonable on the fact why Zifeng could grow so potently compared to them. Long Chen then explains them the various ways and trainings of suppressing oneself to awaken Martial/Weapon Intent which is why Zifeng, having most understanding of the path he had chosen and even understanding the basic essence of the Dao of the path of sword, was able to show most brilliant progress and that is also the reason why except Long Chen, who hadn't shown full power, all others had exceptionally visible dark spheres behind them.

Yue Zifeng slowly opened his eyes and as he did, his manifestation shone along with the Ancient Mark on his head after which he spoke, "I am the Sword, the sword is me. I call forth my force, Cut the World apart; Descension of Ancient Sword" enormous pressure fell on others as the saw Yue Zifeng only slowly wave his hand towards a direction far from life, i.e. towards air, with his Sword Intent concentrated. As nothing happened all of them looked weirdly at Yue Zifeng thinking that Zifeng had gotten stronger and so has his Sword Intent reached the pinnacle so he was showing his progress until Long Chen states them to look at the nearest cliff to whose direction Zifeng had sent his attack and as they looked a bit, a fierce wind billowed, as wind blowing in the mountains and hills is common, the top of that cliff starts sliding down slowly. At this time Long Chen explains that Yue Zifeng's Sword Intent had reached pinnacle and not only that but with his Sword-like ancestral mark and manifestation, he had awakened a technique that would grow together with him even in the future. This info shocked the wits out of everyone except Long Chen and his group as they all had already awakened such techniques.

When Long Chen explains that even others can grow exceptionally strong by following a certain Dao path and attaining perfection as well as Enlightment in it, all of them were excited and were ready to move onto a new path, either of training Martial intent of the Elemental Techniques' or Martial Arts' they practice or training for Weapon Intent Weapon Arts' that they have been practicing for a long time.

After that Qi Xin and Lei Qianshang worked with long Chen to bring Gu Yang, Song Mingyuan and Li Qi as well as their teammates and also other factions and senior brothers and sisters, whom he probed with his Spiritual Strength flowing throughout the monastery with essence of his 'Nine Star Hegemon Body Art's Will' to select for them to join the Dragon Blood Legion. Though the three initially refused but after being beaten a bit by Long Chen… ahem... trained by Long Chen, the three and the others in the group/faction also accept the order.

And yeah, Long Chen had actually used his spirit power to stop them and various others from breaking through to the Muscle Rebirth Realm so that they all could awaken as Rank-1 Celestial except the senior brothers and sisters who already had reached Muscle Rebirth Realm though Long Chen also gave enough Pills for helping them to awaken as Rank-1 Celestial.

Celestials were divided into 'Nine-Ranks' from 'Rank-1 Celestial' to 'Rank-9 Celestial' and as those beyond were awakened, chosen ones.

Currently Long Chen's Dragon Blood Legion had a total of 30,000 People including himself and his group though for time being till they are within the Monastery; they will still be divided in different factions.

After that a few days later the faction war begun. Though almost all the factions were of Dragon Blood Legion, the faction war was only for them to test their abilities and divide themselves in ranks for the Dragon Blood Legion. And for that, they all decided to do duel in name of faction war.

Though Long Chen, Meng Qi, Lu Fang'er, and healing faculty, Guo Ran, Yue Zifeng as well as other Long Chen's brothers from Phoenix Cry Empire as except Guo Ran and Healing Faculty members they overpowered while Healing Faculty focused on healing others and Guo Ran was a Blacksmith, the faction war was indeed went very brilliant as everyone else had to fight solely with their cultivation suppressed to same Realm; 1st-Heaventhstage of Muscle Rebirth Realm.

The battles were bloody and intense with everyone fighting with Intent to kill the opponent though Long Chen and Meng Qi prevented incidents of death while no one held each other accountable for the fact and not because of just the Soul-Oath they had taken but because the fact that they all successfully learned the Starry River of the Sky Art causing their Mind and Heart to merge with Soul and get cleansed with purity causing them to be affected in a proper and brilliant way.

As the battles ended and winner was determined all of them waited excitedly for the result. Finally after a few hours later the rankings were released in terms of power and capability; the rankings (though it didn't matter much as they all were sworn brothers or sisters or few having lovers within the legion) were:

Boss (Lord of Legion): Long Chen

Grand Marshall (Commands all Members except Inquisitors): Shi Feng, Guo Ran

Inquisitors (Highest After the Lord): Wilde, Yu Yong, Su Heng, Chen Hong, Song Ming, Yan Qi, Yue Zifeng, Chu Feng

Legion Commanders (For females only): Meng Qi, Lu Fang'er, Tang Wan'er, Ye Zhiqiu

Legion Commanders (For males only): Gu Yang, Guan Wennan, Song Mingyuan, Lei Qianshang, Qi Xin

Legion Captains: Luo Cang, Jiang Yifan, Qi Yue(For Medical hall experts), Qing Yu, Ling Hao, Qin Feng, etc... up to total of 300.

Dragon Blood Warriors: About 30,000.

(Up to 300 Legion Captains for 30000 Dragon Blood Warriors)

After that Long Chen and his Dragon Blood Legion was all ready. Now according to Long Chen they all started to train in their martial perspective or weapon perspective to awaken their Wills and reach the stage of awakening their own Martial/Weapon Intent.

While so, Long Chen studied about various techniques within the Monastery elevating his own ideas in basis of various techniques and helping his friends (sworn brothers and sisters) while also guiding them all through the Starry River of the Sky Art.

--Time Skip : Three Months--

Three months had passed by as Sect Master Ling Yunzi came out of his seclusion not only completely healed but also having reached to Mid-Stages of Xuantian Realm with his Aura and strength more consolidated and sharp compared to before and not only that almost half of the Sect Elders among whom there were given pills by Long Chen, had broken through to the Xuantian Realm.

And as it goes by, all members of Dragon Blood Legion had also grown stronger and more powerful having all reached the Peak of 6th-Heaventhstage of Muscle Rebirth Realm(Tendon Transformation Realm) with everyone having awakened their Martial/Weapon Will as well as sharpening it to peak all thanks to Long Chen's guidance and his pills.

Along that Long Chen had also potentially grown enough to have reached the 10th-Heaventhstage of Blood condensation realm and awakening a new ability 'Eternal Star Body' as the result of the 'Seventh Star Transformation'. This ability was surprisingly amusing as it was more of a passive defense technique that blocked moves which could affect Long Chen seriously. And when Long Chen asked Yue Zifeng to strike him with what ever he had anywhere at Long Chen, everyone including Zifeng in Dragon Blood Legion yelled at Long Chen in worry but Long Chen asked to trust him. And so, Inquisitor Yue Zifeng, the one with strongest cutting force in all of Dragon Blood Legion, wielded his sword and unsheathing it, he released 'Descension of Ancient Sword' his strongest move. Though everyone was worried including Long Chen as the chill felt by the sword's force, but when it actually struck Long Chen, the sword's blade actually didn't cut even a single layer of his skin, though he felt the extreme pain and grunted a bit nothing else happened. Everyone was shocked yet again recognized the terrifying force of Long Chen. Not only that but his Starry Sky Chart consisted of more Star Clusters of Astral Energy and his Soul Root in his Sea of Consciousness had reached the stage of Heaven Grade with some unusual Ancient Runes, almost invisible and transparent, arranged in a certain pattern originating from some unknown yet known force though it didn't belong the Pill God but Long Chen didn't thought of that as his concern. 

Not only him but all the Legion commanders (Male and Female both), Inquisitors and Generals had their Weapon/Martial Intent awakened with Guo Ran and surprisingly a few joined with excitement as Blacksmith members awakening the Forging Intent allowing them to create strong weapons and armor for the upcoming battles while matching the true capabilities and strength of the current Dragon Blood Legion. Of course, Guo Ran was amazing as within the three months not only did he awaken the Forging Will but also but also directly had a breakthrough to Forging Intent and reached the peak of [Mastery Stage] allowing him to reach Half-Step to the [True Intent Stage]. Guo Ran's case was indeed the most shocking and outstanding one.

While Meng Qi followed the Dao of Soul awakening Martial Soul Intent, Ye Zhiqiu reached the Mastery Stage of Ice Element Sword Intent and Tang Wan'er awakened the Intent of Wind. Qing Yu and Lu Fang'er with few disciples from Healing group developed the wills of Weaving Intent and Thread Intent along with their original path so that they could prosper in other fields not limited to their single field.

Forging Intent (锻意, Duàn Yì): The martial artist channels mastery of metal and blacksmithing, imbuing weapons or armor with powerful energy, shaping and tempering them with precision to enhance their strength in battle.

Thread Intent (线意, Xiàn Yì): This intent could allow the martial artist to control threads or manipulate fabrics with precision and power. It could be used for both defensive techniques (like creating impenetrable cloth shields) and offensive ones (such as using threads to bind or cut opponents).

Weaving Intent (织意, Zhī Yì): This could emphasize the martial artist's ability to "weave" fabrics and threads in battle, symbolizing their control over the structure and flow of cloth, even using the threads like weapons or tools in battle.

Except for Wilde, who was taken under by Senior Cang Ming, everyone had atleast reached the stage of Awakening of their respective Martial/Weapon intent whereas a few such as: Gu Yang, Guan Wennan, Song Mingyuan, Lei Qianshang, Qi Xin, Luo Cang, Jiang Yifan, Qi Yue had reached the Initial of Mastery Stage. 

With this Long Chen's initial preparations ended with him preparing more than enough for the upcoming war between the Righteous Path disciple and Corrupt Path disciples and in such a way that one can never forget the true meaning of the righteous path as the weakest were now 'Rank-1 Celestials' and Strongest were 'Rank-4 Celestial' also there is Long Chen, the most terrifying of all.

The preparations was also enough for the upcoming entry for the 'Jiuli Secret Realm'.

All were now overpowered and not only that, but that fact that they far surpassed even Long Chen from the Novel series according to Long Chen's memory makes him think of his and their (All his family, lovers, sworn brothers and sisters) potential to overpower the upcoming hazards. So, on with setting sun behind him at evening, Long Chen says proudly and arrogantly looking to his lovers, fellow comrades; homies, sworn bothers and sisters: "With the dragons roaring and the phoenixes singing, the nine realms shall bow before us."

To Be Continued...
