Chapter: 5146

He could clearly feel his abilities advancing forward by a huge leap, even his control over his own body's dan tian and meridians had achieved an enormous boost.

Before this, he was like someone with severely impaired vision, able to only vaguely perceive the state of his own body. But now, he felt as if he had grown a new pair of healthy eyes, effortlessly perceiving the situation within himself.

This all-around enhancement left him stunned and moved to tears.

He couldn't help but think in his heart: "It turns out that this is the feeling of being in the dark realm... Everything has become stronger and more clear, an upgrade compared to before!"

"If one doesn't enter the gate of the dark realm, they can never experience such a wonderful feeling! I've waited for thirty years, and now everything is worth it!"

Thinking about this, Cliff Distant opened his eyes, tears glistening as he looked at Leaf Zhen's face once more, bowed down again, overcome with emotion: "Leaf Master... Thank you for granting your subordinate the opportunity! My subordinate has finally broken through to the dark realm!"

"He faintly smiled, speaking seriously: 'The dark realm is just a new beginning, and from now on, the road ahead will be even more arduous and distant compared to the past thirty years. If one can enter the dark realm before age hundred, it won't be an overambitious goal to live up to age 145; with that, there's a chance to advance to a state of transformation, or perhaps extend lifespan by another fifty years.'"

"As he said this, Leaf Zhen suddenly changed tone and spoke sternly: 'However, the longer one lives, the more effort is required. Ordinary people can retire at sixty, but martial artists will still have to struggle for cultivation even at age 160; one's whole life cannot be easygoing. From now on, you and Broken Army must prepare yourselves mentally for a long and arduous road, with no room for relaxation. This is an absolute pain that ordinary people can't understand.'"

"Cliff Distant spoke respectfully: 'Master Leaf, rest assured, I've already made up my mind since the day I entered the martial arts path; as a warrior, one must seek truth above and below!'"

"Leaf Zhen nodded slightly, speaking calmly: 'From today on, teach these dead soldiers well and cavalry guards. In the future, there will be a battle with Broken Clear, and the likelihood of surviving is very high, depending on how well you can train them.'"

"Cliff Distant spoke respectfully once more: 'I understand! Please rest assured, Master Leaf, I will devote myself to teaching them wholeheartedly from today on, without any reservations!'"

"Leaf Zhen relaxed slightly, speaking: 'Alright, go get that person to bring him in. He's a high-ranking expert in the dark realm and can't be wasted.'"

"Subordinate, yes!'"

"Subordinate, yes!'"

He looked at him with interest and asked: "What's your name?"

The person immediately replied respectfully, "I am called Ni Zhenyu, sir."

He then asked: "How did you become the magistrate of this region?"

Ni Zhenyu replied: "I am a descendant of the Tiger Guard Camp, and after leaving the camp, I traveled to various regions before being assigned to this position as magistrate."

He curiously asked: "How can the Blue Cliff Organization be so strict in its management and allow you to travel all over?"

Ni Zhenyu hurriedly replied: "Sir, traveling is a necessary process for everyone who leaves the Tiger Guard Camp. The organization lets us travel to find and recruit people with exceptional martial arts talents and persuade them to join the Blue Cliff Organization."

He coldly laughed: "So you're basically recruiting people all over, looking like the Blue Cliff Organization is really short-handed."

Ni Zhenyu nodded: "Yes, sir. Over the past few years, the number of Tiger Guard Camp members has decreased significantly, and people with potential to enter the dark realm have also become fewer. That's why the organization lets us travel to find suitable talent."

Master Leaf nodded and pointed at Cliff Distant, commanding: "Ni Zhenyu, from today on, I want you to stay by this copper mine, always following his instructions. Whatever he tells you to do, you must do it. If anyone wants to harm him, you must defend him with your life at the first opportunity, no matter what the cost. Do you understand?" JrNovels.com
