When he had just entered the concentration camp for one year, he had already broken through to level twenty and used the system's rewarded soul ring upgrade coupon to elevate his first soul ring to a five-thousand-year level.
The upgrade coupon could only raise the soul ring to the limit his body could withstand.
Afterward, he asked Long Shan for help in hunting a five-thousand-year soul beast, successfully breaking through to level twenty-one.
Later, he went out of the city alone, found a place with no people, and underwent his second heavenly tribulation.
To his slight disappointment, this tribulation gift package only contained one drop of Thunder Tribulation Liquid. After passing the tribulation, he used half of it, leaving only half a drop now.
At this moment, his attributes and level in the system had improved significantly.
[Host: Jiang Chen
Douluo level: 29
Zombie level: 2/12
Soul rings: 1st ring 5000 years, 2nd ring 5000 years
Soul skills: First soul skill: Zombie God Armor, Second soul skill: Corpse Poison Array
Items: Half drop of Thunder Tribulation Liquid]
This second skill, Corpse Poison Array, had a maximum range of ten square meters, creating a poison array filled with corpse poison.
The poison in the array was not as strong as the corpse poison inside Jiang Chen's body; it couldn't kill someone immediately, but the longer one stayed inside, the deeper the poisoning would become, sharply reducing combat power until they could only be at Jiang Chen's mercy.
Most importantly, Jiang Chen could control the size of the Corpse Poison Array's range, and he could make the poison array appear anywhere within the scope of his spiritual power.
Of course, the smaller the range of the poison array, the more concentrated and terrifying the toxins inside would be.
Over these three years, because he had been cultivating in the concentration camp, he had not returned to Holy Soul Village.
Moreover, even if he had time to go back now, he wouldn't dare.
At this time, Tang Hao might be in Notting City, secretly following behind Tang San. If he went back and Tang Hao discovered him, he would probably be killed on the spot.
Although he had already stood in opposition to Tang San and his son, he did not want to use Spirit Hall to strangle Tang San. He wanted to rely on his own efforts, ultimately making Tang San and his son despair under his overwhelming strength, so they would no longer dare harbor thoughts of revenge.
He had confidence in achieving all of this, thanks to possessing the system, thanks to his talent, thanks to reaching level twenty-nine at nine years old, while Tang San only reached level twenty-nine at twelve.
His cultivation was already three years ahead of Tang San, and he believed he would continue to stay ahead forever.
Over these years, he had written many letters to Old Jack. Although he hadn't mentioned his cultivation level, Old Jack was overjoyed upon learning that he was cultivating in Spirit Hall City, grinning from ear to ear.
...
The carriage moved quickly. After one night, it arrived at Spirit Hall City by the afternoon of the second day.
Although Spirit Hall City was not as large as Heaven Dou City or those other cities, it was definitely not small. The area near the Papal Palace was somewhat quiet, while other districts were exceptionally bustling.
Spirit Hall Academy, including the Zhao family and many other great families attached to Spirit Hall, was all located in this Spirit Hall City.
There were also some sects attached to Spirit Hall that had established branches in Spirit Hall City.
Upon returning to the foot of Pope Mountain, Commander Ji led Jiang Chen up the mountain. Although the guards found Jiang Chen somewhat unfamiliar, they didn't dare stop him.
They secretly memorized Jiang Chen's appearance to avoid any future collisions.
After all, being personally escorted up the mountain by the great commander meant his status was not something they could afford to offend.
Commander Ji brought Jiang Chen to the entrance of the Papal Palace and then left alone. Before departing, he didn't even say a word.
Jiang Chen curled his lips. This old Ji was like a wooden puppet, even though he was the Pope's disciple, old Ji hadn't given him much of a smile.
What surprised Jiang Chen was that his teacher Bibi Dong was not waiting at the entrance of the Papal Palace.
"Could it be that the teacher still doesn't know I've returned?"
He shook his head, not thinking too much about it, and headed straight toward his own residence.
He would take a proper bath first, then go pay respects to Bibi Dong.
The Papal Palace was quiet. Moments later, he arrived at the room he had lived in before.
After three years, it was still the same room, still the familiar scent. The room was still filled with that fragrance from Hu Liena's body.
Thinking back now, the time he spent here three years ago was truly a beautiful memory.
But this time, he came back; he definitely needed to change rooms. He felt that as he had grown and developed, the resistance to temptation that Hu Liena had once trained in him seemed to be declining.
If he lived with the crazy Hu Liena again, he didn't dare imagine what terrifying things might happen.
The room was empty, but on that large pink bed, there were a few more intimate garments than when he had left back then. Presumably, over these years, Hu Liena had returned here.
In the past, he hadn't felt anything, but now, looking at those small, casually discarded garments on the bed, his gaze couldn't move away.
Hu Liena's impression on him was simply too profound. Seeing these things, he couldn't help but recall how Hu Liena had seduced him back then.
"No!" He forcefully shook his head, flinging those improper thoughts out of his mind, and rushed into the bathroom. He needed a cold shower to clear his head.
The sound of rushing water rang out, accompanied by Jiang Chen's singing.
Can I dance another dance for you
I am the white fox you set free a thousand years ago.
Look at the clothes fluttering, clothes fluttering.
...
Can I dance another dance for you
Just for that one last glance you gave when parting.
Look at the clothes fluttering, clothes fluttering.
Eternal love turns into nothingness.
...
At the doorway of the room, Hu Liena, who had just returned from Bibi Dong's place, froze the moment she entered.
Listening to Jiang Chen's sorrowful singing, Hu Liena felt as if she were witnessing a poignant love story slowly unfolding before her eyes.
By the time Jiang Chen's song ended, Hu Liena could no longer hold back her tears.
Inside the bathroom, Jiang Chen's heart stirred. Earlier, he had been fully focused on singing a song he liked from his previous life and hadn't sensed anyone approaching. Now that he stopped, he finally noticed someone had entered the room.
"Could it be Senior Sister has returned?" he wondered in his heart. Apart from him and Hu Liena, no one else should come to this room.
While he was puzzled, the bathroom door was suddenly pushed open, followed by Hu Liena's excited voice.
"Little Chen, you're back... uh..." Before Hu Liena could finish speaking, she froze, her mind going blank. The handsome young man before her was that small, cute little junior brother from her memory?
The two stared at each other for several full seconds, the air seeming to solidify.
With a clatter, the soap in Jiang Chen's hand fell to the ground, instantly breaking the awkward atmosphere.
With a bang, the bathroom door was slammed shut. Hu Liena didn't say a word, her face as red as a ripe apple, and she fled the room in a rush.
It was truly mortifying. Her impression of Jiang Chen was still stuck at six years old. For a little kid, what was there to be cautious about? So in her excitement, she had barged right in, wanting to give Jiang Chen a surprise.
But she never expected that inside was a fully grown young man. He was still her junior brother, but he had already grown up.
Jiang Chen smiled bitterly as he picked up the soap, quickly rinsed off, and walked out.
He hadn't expected Hu Liena to return and to barge in without a word, giving him quite a scare.
Hu Liena's appearance hadn't changed much from before, but her figure had become even more astonishing. Jiang Chen couldn't help but compare her in his mind. At this moment, Hu Liena was not much inferior to the sexy and mature Qingqing.
