The Portal of Wonderland - Chapter 507

Chapter 507: 507

“The Nine Revolutions Mysterious Art is one of the classics of Qinglan’s three great sacred places . The third phase would require 10,000 Xuanling points…” The protector answered Shi Mu’s questions directly before disappearing into thin air .

“10,000 points…” Shi Mu heard the words and could not help but feel stunned . The sweat on his forehead rolled down his cheeks .

Due to the protector’s voice fading as it began to disappear, and Shi Mu himself a little lost for his words, he did not clearly hear about the four phases of the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Art .

It did not make much sense to him right now .

Shi Mu shook his head and reached out to wipe the sweat off his face . He was shocked yet slightly relieved for the time being .

The third phase of the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Art required a certain amount of points . Normally, it would be impossible for a disciple of average rank to exchange . Even a thousand-year-old disciple may only be able to exchange the first three phases at most .

Shi Mu looked at the Eighteen Staves Through Heaven and his eyes flickered . Finally, he gritted his teeth and activated his spirit sense .

A white light flew out, penetrating the seal and hitting the books on Heavenly Staff Techniques .

The white light within the Xuanling Wall flew and the Xuanling points instantly reduced by 95 points .

The jade slips of the Eighteen Staves Through Heaven flashed directly out of the prohibition seal and fell into Shi Mu’s hands .

Shi Mu looked at the jade slip in his hand and sighed . His expression was a bit complicated and he did not immediately look at it . Instead, he turned around and flew toward the exit .

As he left the Holy Spirit Pavilion, he went straight toward the Xuanling Tower . As he arrived, he released Cai and rode on his Green-winged Flying Carriage back to his cave residence .

“Eh…”

His eyes flashed and the gate of the residence opened up . Several of his attendants stood outside the door with swollen faces . They seemed to have been beaten .

Shi Mu’s face sank as he flew down towards them .

Several attendants saw Shi Mu and their faces were filled with relief and joy . Among them was Qi Feng, who was shouting what was going on loudly on the top of his lungs .

“Great, young master is back and so is master Cai! A while ago, a bunch of people came by and tried to barge into the residence . ”

“Who dares barge into my residence…” Upon hearing Qi Feng’s report, Cai shouted in fury . However, as he was shouting, he sensed a sharp glare from Shi Mu and immediately quieted down .

“Tell me bit by bit . Who are those who came?” Shi Mu turned his head with his eyes narrowed into a seam and asked .

In the Holy Land, it was of great provocation for one to enter the residence of the owner without any permission .

“It was exactly that group of people who came last time to look for Cui Huan . Only this time, Zhao Shenlei had joined in personally,” Qi Feng whispered in fear .

A cold light flashed across Shi Mu’s eyes and he headed toward the main gate of the residence .

Qi Feng and others saw and looked at each other while remaining near the door .

In the hall of the residence, a tall and thin young man was sitting on one of the stone chairs .

He appeared to be in his twenties . He had a hooked nose and his deep-set eyes . From time to time, his eyes would flashed with a hint of coldness, giving off a gloomy vibe .

Beside him stood a few attendants . One of them was Zhao Sanbao . At the moment he appeared charming as he flattered his master .

“Sanbao, are you sure the information you gathered was accurate?” the gloomy man asked .

“Young master, this matter is absolutely true . I personally inquired about him from a few of the disciples who came into the Holy Land with Shi Mu . He is indeed in his first stage of cultivation and recently advanced as a disciple of Qinglan from the trials,” Zhao Sanbao reassured .

“It’s truly unbelievable for someone still in the early stages of cultivation to make it through the trials,” the gloomy man muttered to himself .

“It’s estimated that this Shi Mu lad was lucky to have passed the trials . He managed to rank 35th, barely squeezing into the ranks of the upper disciples . However, he is human and can’t compare to you, young master . ” Zhao Sanbao said praisingly .

“Ah, that’s only natural! But Sanbao, you’re in your early stages of cultivation as well, and from the leopard clan . You’re no weaker than this human peasant . Why bother me to come here and fight him instead of doing it yourself?” the gloomy man snorted and said .

“Either way, this person is an upper disciple of the Holy Land . I expressed my intentions with courtesy and yet, not only did he not accede, but he was verbally rude as well . I’m afraid that I wouldn’t stand a chance if I were to attack him . However, in your presence, wouldn’t Shi Mu just give in and hand over Cui Huan?” Zhao Sanbao eagerly looked everywhere as he spoke .

He did not tell Zhao Shenlei about the last time when Shi Mu had thrown him out when he went looking for Cui Huan in his residence . This time, since Zhao Shenlei himself was present, he would use this opportunity to seek revenge for his humiliation .

Zhao Shenlei snorted and did not speak again .

A heavy footstep came from outside .

Doom doom dooom…

The footsteps were as heavy as a mountai, and the ground shook slightly .

The man’s gloomy expression changed somewhat . However, he composed himself and showed a hint of dignity as he looked outward .

A shadowy figure appeared and it was none other than Shi Mu . His tall figure appeared outside the hall, almost blocking all the light outside from shining in . A few people in the hall momentarily had the illusion that the entire day had been covered by his figure .

The gloomy man’s expression was firm . He slowly stood up from his seat and faced Shi Mu’s direction .

“You must be Zhao Shenlei . For someone like you to barge into my residence is a great prestige!” Shi Mu said while looking straight into Zhao Shenlei’s eyes .

“Bold of you! Who are you to address our young master this way!” Zhao Sanbao roared in anger .

A cold spark flashed in Shi Mu’s eyes as he looked straight at Zhao Sanbao .

Zhao Sanbao’s expression immediately changed, as if a knife had stabbed him right in the heart . His initial anger faded and he could not help but take a few steps back, hiding behind Zhao Shenlei .

“My attendant here lacks manners . Funny that brother Shi Mu had to witness such a scene,” Zhao Shenlei said laughingly .

“You’re in my territory, my residence, you should obey the rules . You of all people should be aware of this, yet you bring in your people here today . You not only barge into my residence but also injured my fellow attendants . I will not take this!” Shi Mu’s expression did not change at all as he spoke .

“Hehe . Oh dear brother Shi Mu, there is no need for you to be angry . We originally planned to come here just to pay you a visit . Sadly, after waiting outside for a long time without sight of you, I took the liberty of coming in without your permission . My fellow attendants here are ill-mannered and violent so an altercation took place between your attendants and mine . I take full responsibility for this . I apologize sincerely,” Zhao Shenlei said in a casual manner but turned around and scoffed at his attendants, including Zhao Sanbao .

Sanbao’s face changed a few times, as if he did not anticipate Zhao Shenlei would say such words . He could not help but hesitate a little .

Zhao Shenlei’s eyes were cold as he glanced at the attendants beside him .

A few of them had a change in their expression, as if they were falling through thin ice . They quickly hurried in front of Shi Mu and bowed apologetically, then slapped themselves across the cheeks until the corner of their mouths bled .

“Young master Shi Mu, it was our fault for offending you . Please forgive us,” Zhao Sanbao and the other attendants said .

Shi Mu furrowed his brow as he had not expected Zhao Shenlei would use such a demeaning method in public . If he were to continue pursuing this issue, it seemed things would get out of hand .

“Since you have all admitted your mistake, go outside and face those who you assaulted . Apologize to them and ask for forgiveness,” Shi Mu said and waved his hand .

Zhao Sanbao’s body was stiff and his eyes flashed as he lowered his head .

Shi Mu’s strength was formidable and he did not bow . Shi Mu’s attendants outside did not looked them in the eyes as well, regardless of position . To bow to someone and apologize was a shameful act . It reinforced someone as a weakling .

“What are you doing? Don’t you understand young master Shi Mu’s words? Go now!” Zhao Shenlei shouted .

Thoughts rolled in Zhao Sanbao’s mind and he was furious to the point that his eyes were blood red . However, in fear of Zhao Shenlei, he gave in and walked outside to face Shi Mu’s attendants that he had previously beaten up .

Seeing Zhao Sanbao walking out, the others followed behind .

After a while, several of them walked out in frustration .

Shi Mu released his spirit sense to make sure that they really followed his command to apologize to his attendants that had been beaten . Among the beaten attendants was the right-hand man in the management of the residence, Qi Feng .

“In that case, this untoward incident has been resolved,” Shi Mu nodded his head and said .

“Haha! Thank you brother Shi Mu for being such a forgiving person . ” Zhao Shenlei’s pupils shrank slightly before laughing .

“So, brother Zhao, what is it that brings you to come visit me today?” Shi Mu sat down and asked .

“Oh, it’s not actually a big deal . It’s regarding one of your attendants, Cui Huan . I presume brother Shi Mu knows about the large debt this woman owes me, and she’s been hiding here in your residence . She had no intention of repaying the debts, which resulted in us coming here to get it ourselves . ”

Shi Mu’s eyes flashed and he remained silent for a moment .

“I told Zhao Sanbao the last time he came here . Cui Huan has now been assigned to my residence by the Holy Land of Qinglan . If you want to settle your issues with her, please wait till the day she leaves this place . ”

Zhao Shenlei heard the words and his eyes slightly twitched .

“There’s a saying that money owed should be repaid . This is only natural justice on my side . How can brother Shi Mu not care about the bond between disciples and the importance of repaying solely for a girl like Cui Huan?”

Zhao Shenlei spoke calmly but it was obvious that he was extremely furious .

“I would never dare to take lightly the bond disciples share, or the importance of fulfilling an agreement . However, Cui Huan belongs to my residence . I can’t sit back and watch things go south for her . ”

Zhao Shenlei’s face was dull and his eyes narrowed . Suddenly, his eyes lit up with two glaring silver lights, stabbing toward Shi Mu .

Shi Mu was not surprised at all . The golden light in his eyes had also released . Both the golden light in Shi Mu’s eyes and the silver light in Zhao Shenlei’s eyes collided with one another .

A crisp bursting sound echoed through the room!

The gold and silver lights collided and cancelled each other out . There was a ripple in the space between them, and a circle of invisible fluctuations began to sweep away .

The red awn of Shi Mu’s body flashed off the invisible fluctuations .

The layer of silver light glowing around Zhao Shenlei’s body shook a little as it blocked off the invisible fluctuations .

However, Zhao Sanbao and the others were caught in between the invisible fluctuations . Their bodies shook violently and they could not help but back away a few steps as their faces began to bleed .

Fortunately, this invisible wave had only one wave so several of them quickly recovered .

Zhao Shenlei’s expression changed slightly . Although it was merely a test for Zhao Shenlei to see how strong Shi Mu was, Shi Mu’s strength was far beyond his expectations .
