Martial Arts are Too Involuted, and If You are Not Careful, You Can Quickly Pass the High Martial Arts

60: The fourth floor of Feitian! Advanced treasure house!“So… tell me, why is it that in this past month, more than a dozen low-Rank treasure vaults have been discovered, and even an Intermediate treasure vault has been found!”

A hoarse voice came from the Branch Leader’s mouth. In an instant, the temperature throughout the entire space dropped significantly.

Even the surrounding air seemed to freeze over with layers of frost, causing the members with four drops of blood on their chests to shiver slightly.

“Boss… we don’t know either. This guy clearly knows the locations of our treasure vaults, and you know that even we only know one or two of those locations. These more than ten locations…”

A Rank 4 Scarlet Church member said, his gaze falling on the Branch Leader.

Although the guy hadn’t finished speaking, the Branch Leader had already fallen silent.

Just as the guy said, even those Rank 4 Scarlet Church members among them at most knew the locations of a few treasure vaults.

And with more than ten treasure vaults being taken out consecutively, it could only mean that either several Rank 4 Scarlet Church members were undercover, or… the undercover agent was him, the Branch Leader.

“Am I really an undercover agent??”

Ten thousand question marks appeared in the Branch Leader’s mind.

This was truly a case of ’sitting at home, and trouble comes knocking’.

Being an undercover agent was impossible; after all, to reach the position of Branch Leader, one had to undergo many tests from the Scarlet Church, not just possess high strength.

As for several Rank 4 Scarlet Church members being undercover… the Branch Leader looked at his subordinates and fell into silence once more.

Under his command, there were only a dozen or so Rank 4 powerhouses. Including the two Rank 4 members who died this month, there weren’t many left now.

If several of them were undercover… wouldn’t he be completely stripped of power?

For a moment, this Branch Leader of Jiangnan Province didn’t know what to say.

“Hiss!”

He gasped, rubbing his temples, but he still didn’t know what to say.

What the hell was going on!

“No matter what, and no matter how the Martial Alliance discovered the Church’s strongholds, this matter absolutely cannot be overlooked!”

The Branch Leader slowly recovered, a sharp glint appearing in his eyes.

“Although my Scarlet Church doesn’t dare to openly wage war with the Martial Alliance, we are not some random cat or dog that can be easily overthrown. Find this person for me; I want to offer his Soul… to the Scarlet God!”

As he spoke, a terrifying aura instantly surged from the Branch Leader, echoing throughout the entire space.

The Rank 4 Scarlet Church members, seeing this, also grew solemn and immediately stood up.

“Yes!”

...Another week later, Ye Chen walked aimlessly through the wilderness. Beside him, a black shadow floated in mid-air, asking Ye Chen with a puzzled tone.

“Why aren’t you continuing to raid the Scarlet Church’s resources?”

Although the black shadow was once a member of the Scarlet Church, and was even on the verge of becoming a Branch Leader of the Scarlet Church in Jiangnan Province, some mishap occurred, leading to his demise in the ruins.

Therefore, the black shadow now had no strong feelings for the Scarlet Church, and even enjoyed Ye Chen’s actions against it.

However, during this time, he had told Ye Chen about some Scarlet Church strongholds, but Ye Chen showed no intention of acting.

Facing the black shadow’s question, Ye Chen looked at him as if he were looking at an idiot.

“Are you stupid? I took out so many treasure vaults in one month; the Scarlet Church must be on guard!”

The black shadow froze, then immediately reacted.

“Hahaha, I was thinking too simply.”

The black shadow scratched his head, a bit embarrassed. After all, having stayed in the ruins for so long, his mind had become a bit sluggish. Hearing Ye Chen’s words, he also came back to his senses.

“So, you’re not doing anything now? Why don’t we go back to Jiangnan Training Camp? After all, there are only three weeks left until the College Entrance Examination.”

As the black shadow spoke, he was also a bit excited.

The College Entrance Examination, ah. Back then, he had failed the College Entrance Examination, felt dejected, and ultimately chose to join the Scarlet Church, but in truth, he still had a special fondness for the College Entrance Examination.

Ye Chen shook his head and didn’t speak, his gaze simply falling on the Void Realm before him, where only Ye Chen could see the System panel slowly appearing.

[name: Ye Chen]

[cultivation: Flying Sky Martial Artist (29/100)]

[Kai Heng Devouring Heaven Art: Minor Achievement (17/100)]

[Heavenly Thunder Step: Minor Achievement (17/100)]

[Mystic Void Sword Art: Minor Achievement (17/100)]

[Sword Qi: Beginner (69/100)]

“In one month, after absorbing so many Heaven And Earth Treasures, I barely managed to advance to Flying Sky third layer, and I still have some progress to make before reaching Flying Sky fourth layer.”

“Moreover, after the Breathing Technique and Martial Arts reached Minor Achievement, the speed of cultivation became even slower. I had already reached Minor Achievement half a month ago, and in this half-month, even with the Scarlet Church’s resources, I only increased my proficiency by seventeen points.”

“As for Sword Qi… it hasn’t even reached the Minor Achievement Realm.”

Ye Chen looked at the panel and couldn’t help but shake his head, muttering to himself.

“It should also be related to the low Rank of the resources. Although I took out more than a dozen Scarlet Church treasure vaults, there were only a few Rank 4 cultivation resources among them. Most were Rank 2 and Rank 3 cultivation resources, which are already insufficient for me now.”

“To improve quickly, I need more Rank 4 resources. It’s just a pity that Rank 4 resources are extremely precious. Even in the Jiangnan Training Camp, while they can be exchanged, they are limited.”

“To become stronger before the College Entrance Examination, I either need to find a newly opened Rank 4 Another Dimension, which would have many Rank 4 resources.”

“Or… I go for a big score!”

A glint flashed in Ye Chen’s eyes.

He looked at the black shadow beside him and asked, “If I remember correctly, you said that the Scarlet Church in Jiangnan Province only has one Advanced treasure vault, right?”

The Scarlet Church’s treasure vaults were divided into Low-Rank, Intermediate, and Advanced!

The higher the Rank of the treasure vault, the stronger the guarding forces, and the more concealed it was, but the more precious the resources inside.

The dozen or so treasure vaults Ye Chen had previously taken out were mostly Low-Rank, with only one or two Intermediate ones.

Therefore, Ye Chen set his sights on the Scarlet Church’s Advanced treasure vault.

The black shadow was stunned, then said excitedly, “You still want to target the Advanced treasure vault? I must tell you, the Advanced treasure vault is the center of the Jiangnan Branch. Although the Branch Leader won’t personally guard it, there are many Rank 4 Scarlet Church members inside, and even some Rank 4 powerhouses who are at the seventh or even eighth layer.”

“You haven’t even Broken Through to Flying Sky fourth layer yet, so you shouldn’t aim for the Advanced treasure vault!”

The black shadow was trying to persuade Ye Chen.

He was now in a situation where if Ye Chen prospered, he prospered; if Ye Chen suffered, he suffered.

He didn’t want to see Ye Chen captured by the Scarlet Church. If that happened, he would be in big trouble. Not only would he lose hope of resurrection, but he might even see the person he least wanted to see.

Therefore, he began to frantically advise Ye Chen, hoping he wouldn’t take risks.

Ye Chen didn’t speak, merely looking at the location of the Advanced treasure vault that the black shadow had told him about earlier, a hint of madness in his eyes.

“You say… those people from the Scarlet Church must hate me to the bone by now, right?”

The black shadow’s mouth twitched slightly. It wasn’t just hatred to the bone; they probably wanted to pull out his tendons!

“Then, since I’ve always targeted Low-Rank treasure vaults, would they focus all their attention on the Low-Rank treasure vaults?”

“Also, you said that only the Branch Leader, or the next Branch Leader, knows the location of the Advanced treasure vault, and no one else, except those guarding it, knows.”

“Would they think that I know the location of the Advanced treasure vault?”

A faint glint flickered in Ye Chen’s eyes.

At these words, the black shadow was stunned. He hadn’t expected Ye Chen to analyze so much, even figuring out the Scarlet Church’s thoughts.

After pondering for a while, a light also appeared in the black shadow’s eyes.

“It seems… it really is like that!”

“Now the Scarlet Church must be heavily guarding those Low-Rank and even Intermediate treasure vaults, hoping to catch you, but they definitely won’t expect us to go to the Advanced treasure vault!”

“If that’s the case…”

The black shadow was too excited, even his body trembled slightly.

“Inside the Advanced treasure vault, there are not only Rank 4 resources, but even Rank 5 resources!!”

“Let’s do it!!”

A hint of madness gradually appeared in the black shadow’s eyes as well.

Ye Chen smiled slightly and slowly walked towards the location of the Advanced treasure vault.

“As for strength… haven’t I already Broken Through!”

As Ye Chen’s voice fell, a powerful aura instantly surged from his body. At this moment, Ye Chen’s cultivation also directly reached Flying Sky fourth layer!

The black shadow behind him, his pupils slightly constricted, finally shook his head with a wry smile: “This monster!”

“Who knows what level this guy will eventually grow to… Perhaps… he can become one of the top tier existences in Great Xia. By then… those people from the Scarlet Church will really have a headache!”

The black shadow said, then quickly followed Ye Chen’s figure. The two swiftly headed towards the Scarlet Church’s Advanced treasure vault… In an Intermediate treasure vault of the Scarlet Church, a Rank 4 Scarlet Church member smiled and said to the Branch Leader.

“Don’t worry, Branch Leader, this time we will definitely catch this guy!”
