After practicing the Azure Dragon roar to spiritual realm, did Cheng Mucheng realize that it was already late afternoon. After going out of the palace, he asked a palace's guard for the location of the Medicine hall.

"Young master, if you want to go to medicine hall's to buy pills, you should ask your parents because you would need money to buy pills."

Hearing this, Muchen laughed. How could he tell this palace guard that he wasn't going to buy pills but herbs! Those herbs were only required for Alchemy. So he shook his head and told the guard not to worry as he already had some money.

Muchen wasn't a fool. If he told random people that he's going to buy herbs to refine pills, what would this lead to? His clansmen who were already jealous of his talent would find this opportunity to tell elders of medicine hall that he was wasting clan's money on herbs. This way, medicine hall's elders would also not tolerate because herbs were very important to them.

Right now, Muchen had just practised a martial skill and spiritual skill to Qi realm and spiritual realm respectively. So he wasn't afraid of any troubles but he still ain't sure if he can fight those elders who're at the qi refining realm. It's still better to refine pills first so when troubles follow he would have proof that he didn't waste the herbs, right?

In his previous world of Muchen, the martial skills were divided into 5 ranks: Entry stage, advanced stage, Mastery stage, qi stage and Dao stage. Spiritual skills were also divided into 5stages: Entry stage, advanced stage, mastery stage, spiritual stage and Concept stage. When someone reaches mastery stage in a martial skill, he would be able to produce 'qi'. Mastery stage is also known as false qi stage because at this stage the qi hasn't achieved it real shape and form. Mastery stage of soul is also the same, they have spiritual form and shape but doesn't take real shape and form unless it reaches the spiritual realm.

Going through the familiar roads, Muchen's memory flashed. He remembered the pathway to his thatched hut where he lived in for 3 years. The local garden was there at the side of this road. Seeing that local garden Muchen was feeling strange. He felt a ghostly aura from there.

"Hmm? Young master, it looks like there is a big conspiracy going inside your clan. There is a evil karma formation, someone must've made this formation recently."

"Indeed, the last time we were here, there was no formation. If I am not wrong, looking at the aura, it should've been put yesterday only."

"Master..so you know? Do you also know this formation? Could it be that master..it's really an reincarnation?"

"Yes, you're right but you should know, this is my greatest secret so you must not tell this secret to anyone. Also I'm not a reincarnator of this world but a different world."

"I know that Master's identity is not simple. Don't worry master, I'm your artifact spirit. And you're my master whom I submitted to. So I'll never do things that you do not want."

Seeing the determination and obedience in Hongji's eyes, Muchen also nodded while feeling the warmth in his heart.

"Mn. I know this formation is evil and corrupted, it uses the ghosts, aka dead souls of people who died to attract negative karma. Since this place is Cheng family's place, this must be the work of spies from different force."

After saying that, Muchen went towards the local garden and saw that the situation was dark. Many ghosts' wail could be heard but he shook his head.

Taking out the the immense soul power from within, he attacked the weakness of the evil karma formation.

"DUM! DUM! DUM!"

The sound of breaking came. The formation broke through in one fell swoop! The immense power of Muchen's soul illuminated the local garden. The divine power erased every evil ghosts that were used.

Somewhere, in the martial hall of the Cheng family,

Elder Ouwang was looking over the disciples who were training under him. These disciples who were training a particular Martial art seemed as if they were going to break the body. Some of them even collapsed due to over exhaustion. They were taken over by the pharmacists in charge of healing the injured disciples.

"Do you think, that I am training you all for free? It's my job to do so and moreover it's your duty to accept my job. Train until you break your body. Haha." In his mind, he thought "Hmph, I love torturing you people. After you guys die, my Zhu family will confiscate all your properties..hahaha"

Suddenly a pain came from his soul. He puked out blood at that instant shocking everyone present in the martial hall.

"Don't blame me for being ruthless when I know who broke my laid 'evil karma formation'."

"Elder Ouwang are you okay?" At this time, a lady came forward with seductive physique.

"Umm, elder Su I'm good. It's just some backlash of practicing a Martial art."

Elder Su was the elder in charge of pharmacists. She liked the style, Elder Ouwang used to train his disciples.

Cheng Muchen, after removing the evil karma formation, went on his way towards the Medicine hall.

After reaching the gate to the medicine hall, he saw the inside of the hall, and wasn't that impressed. He had seen many better buildings and designs like this in his previous life.

After entering through the gate, he saw many clansmen in it, after all this medicine hall was the property of Cheng family. He saw people buying pills from a shop in a que. He also got himself into the que.

A haughty looked man came from a side and went ahead. His arms pushed the man in the front and he took his position. In his face, disdain and arrogance was obvious.

"Excuse me, why did you push me? This is my place. I stood in the que to be here." The man who was pushed back, asked in a normal manner. But, when Muchen saw the haughty looked man signalling his servants to cripple him, Muchen became furious.

Muchen came forward and stopped those servants and turned to look at the haughty looked man. "Are you sure you want to be ignorant?"

The arrogant man only sneered and looked at the ten years old child in front of him. This infuriated him somehow as he thought, how a kid dares to call him ignorant, if these people tell about this to his followers then what will be his reputation?

"Hmm. Kid, you dare to tell me ignorant, I see you're really a kid. Hahahaha"

With his laugh, every guards and some people at the back also laughed. But Muchen remained indifferent. He said "I want you to apologize to this man, if you can't then I'll cripple you regardless of your identity."

"Hmph. You really don't know me? I am the young Master Mu, the son of elder Ouwang. Now that you know my identity, kneel before me and kowtow 3 times and say that you're kid and ignorant."

"Like I told before, if you don't apologize to this person then regardless of your identity, I'll cripple you."

"Looks like you need to be tortured kid, don't blame me then." After saying that, the arrogant man signalled the servants to beat this kid.

There were five servants in total, 2 being at the cultivation of 4th stage of quenching body realm and 3 being at the 5th stage of body quenching realm. First one to punch was at the 4th stage body quenching realm. He was easily repelled by Muchen with his fighting experience and he fall onto the ground, face smacked. After that he used palms, punches and kicks without any martial technique to handle other 4th stage and 5th stage cultivators. He was doing this in order to check his combat power and he was also shocked during this process. He found that they were no match for him.

After flying every servants with his normal punches, he looked over the arrogant man who had a face full of shock.

"So, you still won't apologize to this man?"

"Hmph. You can fight people of 5th stage of body quenching realm at your 2nd stage of Body quenching realm. Boy, I'm really excited to find your secrets." With that said, he unleashed the aura of 8th stage body quenching realm.

This aura made Muchen, feel a bit of pressure. Seeing this, Muchen became full of fighting spirit. He said "Come on."

The man, knowing the intention of Muchen was shocked. There was a fundamental difference in each realm, mostly when one reached the 7th stage of Body quenching realm, and he was at 8th stage of body quenching realm. Seeing this, the man was a little afraid. But he still had the courage and lashed at Muchen with his martial skill 'Tiger lash'. He lashed like a tiger.

Muchen was naturally unafraid. He also used the Dragon elephant Boxing. When both punches hit together, a impact was created which made a deep crater on the ground. The aura that swept out had the power to push surrounding crowd to take few steps back.

The result was, the arrogant man flied like a balloon until he was fallen on the ground with blood coming from all over his body. His whole body's meridians were damaged by Muchen's fist qi.

The man had a look of hatred as he screamed "You just wait. You dared to cripple me. My father will kill you!"

Muchen smiled "Is it? Bring it on." His eyes, full of fighting spirit looked down on him as if the arrogant man earlier, was a pool of corpses to him.
