Chapter 2278: Bad Influence

<>|TOC|Next->

Zhao Hai looked at Zhou Feng, then he smiled faintly and said, “I’m even more afraid that he won’t come. It’s better for him to come, that way I can settle the dispute quickly.”

Zhou Feng heard Zhao Hai and couldn’t help but stare. Then he shook his head and said, “Brother, you just entered the Forbidden Path Sect, so you don’t know how terrifying Long Batian is. He’s a Teleportation Stage Expert that’s in the top ten of the Inner Sect. This gap isn’t something that you can easily overcome. You’re just an Earth Monarch, you can’t go against Teleportation Stage experts.”

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “I just killed a Teleportation Stage Expert a few days ago. This time, I want to see if this Long Batian could block a few of my punches. Brother, I will remember your kindness. After this, and if I survive, I will definitely pay you back. Now, you should go back so that Long Batian won’t find trouble with you in the future.”

Hearing Zhao Hai, Zhou Feng paused, then he hesitated for a moment before he clenched his teeth and said, “Brother, there’s no need. I’ll follow you. I want to see if Long Batian dares to do anything to me.”

When Zhao Hai heard Zhou Feng’s response, he couldn’t help but ask, “It seems like Brother also has something to rely on? Although I don’t know what gave you the confidence, it’s better if you don’t get involved in my affairs. Otherwise, it won’t do good for you. Even if I defeat Long Batian, I can’t kill him. Otherwise, the sect will punish me. If you come with me, Long Batian would also hate you. This wouldn’t be good for you and the people behind you.”

Zhou Feng coldly snorted and said, “Our Zhou Family and their Long Family are already enemies. We aren’t afraid of more enmity with them. Our Zhou Family and the Long Family are about the same strength. Long Batian wouldn’t dare do anything to me.”

Zhao Hai couldn’t help but smile faintly, “That’s good, it helps to have a brother to ask for a hand. I’m from a small gang called the Blood Knife Gang. I hope you can spare a few words to my family to take care of them. Don’t let them be implicated by my actions.”

Zhou Feng smiled and said, “Minor problem, don’t worry. I feel that we’re old friends despite meeting for the first time. How about sharing a few cups? Our Forbidden Path Sect has a few good liquors.”

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “Alright. But this is my first day in the sect and I’m not very familiar with the surroundings. I’ll have to ask Brother Zhou to choose the place.”

Zhou Feng laughed and said, “Your first day and you already offended Long Batian. If I have to say, then you really like to cause trouble.”

Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Long Fei wanted to stand on my head, so I cannot be polite with him. I have my pride as a cultivator.”

Zhou Feng laughed, “Right. You are correct. You can’t just let others bully you if you have the strength. If you don’t resist, then what’s the point of cultivating?”

Zhao Hai looked at Zhou Feng and finally asked, “Brother, are you a body cultivator? I can’t see it from your body.”

Zhou Feng naturally knew that Zhao Hai was going to ask this question. Therefore, he wasn’t surprised and just laughed as he replied, “I won’t hide it from you. I also practice body cultivation, but I don’t use the Forbidden Path Sect’s Evil Buddha Lotus Body. In the past, I was able to obtain a secret manual called the Divine Elephant King Body. Its strength is no worse than the Evil Buddha Lotus Body. It’s because of this that I was able to enter the Forbidden Path Sect. I already handed the secret manual over to the sect, which allowed me to directly enter the Inner Sect. The Evil Buddha Lotus Body pays great attention to self-punishment and training while the Divine Elephant King Body does not. My Divine Elephant Divine Body requires very high blood qi. The reason why I look like this is because I’m still at the small success stage. When I progress, my body will go back to normal.”

Zhao Hai nodded, he looked at Zhou Feng and said, “Brother Zhou is still in the Earth Monarch Realm and yet you can have this much capability to join the Inner Sect. It’s not just because of your cultivation method, right? You should also be a genius to be this strong.”

Hearing Zhao Hai, Zhou Feng couldn’t help but stare. Then he laughed and said, “Fine, but I still feel embarrassed when you point it out.”

Zhao Hai stared before laughing as well. He couldn’t help but think that this fatty was quite interesting. The two of them talking were like two friends who are a bad influence to each other.

Like in Demonheart City, there were also restaurants inside the Forbidden Path Sect. These restaurants naturally weren’t cheap. They use contribution points or spirit stones as currency. Zhou Feng was clearly familiar with the restaurant as he led Zhao Hai staring inside. A waiter went over to them and cupped his fist towards Zhou Feng, “Senior Brother Zhou, what do you want to eat today?”

Zhou Feng waved his hand and said, “Junior Brother Yu, get me a table of your best sellers. I want to have a good drink with Junior Brother Zhao.”

The waiter nodded and said, “Alright, Brother Zhou. Please wait for a moment, I’ll prepare everything immediately.” Zhou Feng only waved his hand, allowing the waiter to leave.

When they were once again alone, Zhou Feng looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Brother, are you also a Body Cultivator? Your body doesn’t look like it. Since you treat me as a Senior Brother, can you tell me your cultivation method?”

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “There’s nothing to hide. When I was younger, I obtained a manual called the Demon Subjugation Method. It’s a Buddhist technique.”

Hearing Zhao Hai, Zhou Feng couldn’t help but stare. His depression changed as his eyes lit up, “Brother, did you really learn a Buddhist Body Cultivation Method?”

Zhao Hai nodded, then he looked at Zhou Feng and asked, “Is there a problem with using a Buddhist Body Cultivation Method?”

Zhou Feng laughed and said, “There’s no problem at all. Instead, I must congratulate you. You should know that the Forbidden Path Sect’s technique is the Evil Buddha Lotus Body. It’s also a buddhist technique. This means that ordinary cultivation methods will find it very hard to switch to it. There are extremely few body cultivation techniques that could smoothly transition to the Evil Buddha Lotus Body. But the most suitable body cultivation methods are Buddhist body cultivation methods.”

Zhao Hai raised his brows and asked, “Does that also mean that if I cultivate the Evil Buddha Lotus Body, my progress will be faster than others, right?”

Zhou Feng laughed, “Naturally. You will surpass most of them!”

Zhao Hai nodded. He now understood why the elders were very enthusiastic to call him their disciple. It wasn’t only because of his inner talent, but also his cultivation method.

The Evil Buddha Lotus Body was originally a buddhist body cultivation technique. It began as a pure buddhist technique and was transformed into a demonic technique later on. Ordinary body cultivation methods would have a hard time transitioning to the technique due to its origins. Most would choose to start from the very beginning since that would be much easier.

Ordinary body cultivation methods are very different to Buddhist Cultivation methods. Therefore, it wasn’t easy for others to just replace their body cultivation technique with the Evil Buddha Lotus Body. Moreover, since they were used to practicing conventional body cultivation techniques, body cultivators would need time to adjust to the buddhist technique. Those lacking in talent would have slow to zero progress with the technique. This meant that the Forbidden Path Sect placed great importance to those who could progress with the technique.

Zhao Hai practices a Buddhist Body Cultivation Technique. Adding to that his great innate talent, these elders would be foolish to let Zhao Hai go without asking him first to become their disciple.

But at the same time, the elders also knew that they lacked the strength to compete with the true powerhouses of the sect. They would only waste Zhao Hai’s future if they insisted on becoming his master. In the end, they all gave up on Zhao Hai and planned to pass him off to the big shots of the sect.

Zhou Feng’s Zhou Clan has a huge influence in the Forbidden Path Sect. Because of this, Zhou Feng knew inside information about the sect. He knew that Zhao Hai was a prime candidate for the sect to accept as a disciple. Therefore, upon hearing that Zhao Hai was practicing a buddhist cultivation method, Zhou Feng was ecstatic. He knew that although Zhao Hai had yet to join the sect, as long as the sect’s decision-makers heard of him, they wouldn’t allow anything to happen to him. At the very least, nothing should happen to Zhao Hai before he took the Heart Refining Road.

After the Heart Refining Road, there was also nothing to worry about. There were only two results of the test. First was the Forbidden Path Sect discovering that Zhao Hai was a spy, which would mean that he would be killed. And second would be the sect will see that he’s a genius and would spend  resources to train him. By that time, the Long Family wouldn’t dare do anything to him. After all, although the Long Family was a powerful family in the sect, they wouldn’t dare affect the sect’s future plans. When the time comes, Zhao Hai will be safe.

Naturally, Zhou Feng had other plans in mind. The Zhou Family and the Long Family don’t see eye to eye. Their strengths were also evenly matched. Neither can do anything to the other. But now, Zhou Feng got to know Zhao Hai while Long Fei offended him. As long as Zhao Hai succeeds in the Heart Refining Road, he would become an inner disciple at least and might even be accepted to become a Core Disciple. When the time comes, Zhao Hai would become a huge boost to the Zhou Family. If Zhao Hai continues to improve later on, the Zhou Family would definitely have a card to press against the Long Family.
