The Invincible Corruption Manual

It was the hidden card that Joey added before he released the arrow as he knew that this very Corruption essence qi had the strong property to absorb both the darkness essence qi and the poison essence qi of the assassin. So the match between them was already decided before Joey even released his arrow.

The assassin began to wail loudly with pain as his internal energy level swiftly decreased. When only about less than 10% of his previous Essence qi remained inside his body, Joey finally made his move.

"Agni Astra, come back!" Joey ordered in a soft voice. The auburn arrow moved and came out from the back of the assassin and soon it began to return back and landed on his hand. At that time, his hand absorbed the dark spot in the arrow and it quickly moved inside his heart and soon returned back to the leaf of the black lotus in the hand of the miniature version of Joey.

And the arrow also disappeared from Joey's hand. He then looked at the currently weakened state and said, "I shall spare you this time. Ho ho ho, you can still repay me back by sending some of my words to your patriarch. Yuwen Tai " Then his expression suddenly changed and he said in an icy-cold voice, "Tell him this. Yuwen Tai, I, Joey will come to take your head soon. Go go go… You better leave quickly before I change my mind. "

The assassin stood up gingerly as he wobbled precariously on his weak and shaking legs. He then took out a paper talisman and lit it up using his essence qi.

Joey grinned at him and wiggled his fingers saying bye as if apparently, he had nothing to do with the assassin, anymore.

As soon as the talisman was burned out, a sudden beam of light fell over the assassin's head from the sky, covering his whole body. The assassin glared at him feeling dismal over the thought of him as a high and mighty expert in level 1 of Semi-Boundless realm defeated easily in the hand of a boy in the Demi-God realm. He even felt humiliated while brooding over their fight and Joey's mercy over his life a moment ago as it would be reasonable if they were in the same level of cultivation. But sadly he was 4 whole cultivation base realms above that of Joey. "Brat, don't be so happy. The next time we meet, I'll take your life for sure." He screamed loudly and disappeared along with the beam of white light.

Joey shook his head, looked toward the sky, and said, "Now I'm truly late. And before that guy comes out again I better leave this place." He then disappeared in the thin air.

The moment Joey disappeared, the space fluctuated exactly at that spot as a beggar-looking man reappeared. "Hmm, this brat escaped so fast. Haha.." It was Feng Jifeng. "Anyway I thought he might need my help against that guy but I may have even underestimated the power and means of this boy. I had worried for nothing." He muttered and also disappeared shortly.

Back inside the castle of the Sandara town, it was really a lively and busy day for everyone. It went on like usual for everyone until it got dark.

Inside a room of the palace, Joey was currently drinking tea. Suddenly a wind blew the curtain of his window once.

"Alright, come out! I know you are there." He said calmly while sipping his tea.

"Hahaha, boy, can't you just pretend that you don't sense my presence even for a while?" A youth who seemed to be in his early 20s  appeared laughing cheerfully. He wore a purple Daoist robe.

Joey wondered that he had seen this youth before but couldn't put his fingers on it.  "You are…er.. " He said finally remembering his very similar face, "Senior Jugge Huan."

"Good, good, at least, you remember me." Chief Jugge Huan said heartily.

Joey stood up and said waving his hand toward a nearby chair, "Senior Jugge Huan, please have your seat."

Chief Jugge Huan sat unceremoniously, joining the dining table. He poured a cup with the tea and gulped down at one go.

Seeing his natural easy-going attitude, Joey was all smiles and sat back on his seat gingerly as he loathed pretentious people, anyway.

"Senior Jugge, congratulations on your breakthrough!" Joey said with a friendly smile.

"Hahaha, I should thank you instead, boy. It was all because of you that I was able to reach such a realm." Chief Jugge Huan praised him instead, giving all the credit to him.

"I don't understand, senior. '' Joey replied doubtfully.

Chief Jugge Huan scratched his head and explained with a wry smile, "Oh, truth be told, it's because of your examination paper of the recent Open Alchemy Contest that I was able to become the Tier - 9 alchemists. From that day onward I studied all the wild theories of yours day and night and finally I was able to get a step into that realm. And henceforth, making it possible for me to break through to the Semi-Boundless realm."

Then both of them remained silent as they continued enjoying the tea.

After several minutes, Joey finally opened up, breaking the silence inside the room. "Senior Jugge Huan, what is your purpose for coming here?" He asked without beating around the bush.

"Boy, you have already agreed to join my Hall Of Alchemy.  I'm personally here to take you back." Chief Jugge Huan replied, with a straight face.

"Oh, about that. Don't worry. I have been planning to visit the Hall Of Alchemy after all this thing regarding those infants here is done with. I have brought them out. So I felt my obligation to take care of them until the last one of them returned to their rightful parents." Joey responded.

"Don't worry about those babies, boy? I have already prepared an arrangement for them too. But I really need you to come as soon as possible to the Hall of Alchemy. Boy, don't you know your recent actions in the Hundred Poison Valleys have already caused an uproar, shaking the same old peacefulness of the entire  Central Continent. Also, your action has led to a tailspin of reputations for some Super clans. And they will remain, leaving no stone unturned after those events. So, you need to come with me today whether you like it or not because you are already one of us." Chief Jugge Huan explained and later convinced him that he brought more than two thousand female disciples from the Hall Of Alchemy to look after those babies in the town. Joey finally agreed to go along with him.

Several hours later, a red carriage flew out of the castle and dashed forward at an extremely incredible speed leaving behind the Sandara Town in a blink of an eye.

There were three people in one of the several rooms of the carriage at the moment.

"Senior Jugge Huan, this is my wife, Chun Churan." Joey introduced and instructed her, "He is the Chief of the Hall Of Alchemy, Jugge Huan."

"Greeting Senior, Jugge Huan! And also thank you for looking after my husband." Chun Churan greeted, cupping at him.

"Hahaha, so you are called Chun Churan. What a nice name?!" The Chief Jugge Huan who was now in youth appearance still talked in his old-fashioned ways which looked really comical to both Joey and Chun Churan. "What a nice young couple?! They look really fit for each other. Both of them are adorable." He wondered in his head as he gave a friendly smile to her.

Chief Jugge Huan craned his head and asked, "Boy, what are your plans now?"

Joey kept his chin over his fist and replied after pondering for a while, "Senior I plan to enter into close door training for one year. After all the World Martial Meet will be held one and half years later."

—------------------

Inside a prosperous, beautiful, and verdant pocket realm of the Ancestral Armament World, there was a clan establishing their main family headquarter here.  It was the Great Gu Clan, one of the Six Super Families of the Ancestral Armament World.

Just before the magnificent-looking colossus gate of the Great Gu Clan which was decorated with several black snakes wrapped around the bar of it, a white thick beam of light fell down from the sky and vanished quickly, leaving only a silhouette wearing all black cloak at that spot. As soon as he materialized, his foot lost its footing, feeling weak and propped down over the ground. He was the assassin that Joey had defeated a moment ago.

Blurp! Blurp!

He vomited blood twice. Then he sat cross-legged on the ground just before the gate, took out a colorless pill from his space ring, and threw it inside his mouth.

After that, he began to make various hands seals and soon started cultivating his essence qi. As soon as he began making those series of hand seals, essence qi all around the surroundings began to concentrate, gather, and finally poured inside his body.
