Legend of the Heavenly Fruit
Eps. 60 — Green Bamboo Sect
As an escaped participant, Zhou Yuan was granted a temporary residence in the Green Bamboo Sect before the competition would later begin.
A disciple guided Zhou Yuan and Zhou Bing to his residence, both of them entering the sect even deeper.
In his travels Zhou Yuan had a chance to see around the sect. According to him, the sect was very admirable and impressed with the air and the atmosphere of silence around it.
Almost in every corner of Zhou Yuan's sect saw bamboo growing, probably the same reason why the sect's name was called the Green Bamboo Sect.
The Green Bamboo Sect was vast, having many buildings that were all made of bamboo. Around a few minutes walking finally Zhou Yuan and his grandfather arrived at his residence in this sect.
"All home appliances are complete, including the food, if there is something you need you can come to the Bamboo Villa." The disciple then bade farewell after delivering Zhou Yuan and Zhou Bing.
Zhou Yuan immediately entered the residence, it was large enough to be occupied by both, had several rooms and rooms inside.
"This sect does not play games in entertaining its guests, how much they spend on this competition..." Zhou Yuan muttered softly while looking at the surroundings.
This Moon Orchid seeking competition was utilized both by the Green Bamboo Sect as its sect promotion, they also used it as a means of introducing the sect to the martial world.
Zhou Yuan chose one of the rooms of the house while his grandfather chose the other.
"Finally arrived..." Zhou Yuan immediately threw his body on the bed, after traveling for so long he finally arrived at his final destination.
His first journey in this second life felt so long after so many events that happened.
On the other hand with him coming out Zhou Yuan so understand the situation of the martial world now, although it seems peaceful but there are some invisible turmoil and ready to erupt in the next few years.
That day, when it was still afternoon, Zhou Yuan had put his body to sleep until he woke up in the middle of the night. While waiting for the day, Zhou Yuan made use of his time to practice the Diamond Bone Technique.
Zhou Yuan's Diamond Bone Technique had now reached 90%, a little more for him to perfect the technique.
Zhou Yuan could sense how the prowess of his bone strength after reaching the Golden Realm, his physical exertion was so awesome that it was even terrifying.
Zhou Yuan did not wait anymore then started cross-legged and closed his eyes, Zhou Yuan did a bone forging exercise back.
Slowly cold sweat began to appear on Zhou Yuan's body as well as wetting his clothes as the bone forging process took place, his face looking to endure the excruciating pain.
Despite many years of doing this bone training, the pain will not become accustomed to being felt by someone.
Zhou Yuan continued to hold his sufferers until the sun rose even began to rise into the sky. Suddenly the sound of a broken bone rang out loudly, Zhou Yuan opened his eyes to find the quality of his bones had improved significantly.
Zhou Yuan had refined the Diamond Bone Technique by up to a hundred percent.
"Already I guess, perfecting this bone forging is the right step in my training..." Zhou Yuan felt enthusiastic as he felt his physical energy become strong.
Zhou Yuan made small movements, swinging a kick or hitting empty air, the result created a small air knife as his body moved quickly.
Zhou Yuan wanted to try his new strength again as the sound of knocking rang out from the outside, Zhou Bing appearing behind it.
"Yuan'er, Grandfather will go see the Patriarch of the Sect, will you come?"
Zhou Yuan remembered that Zhou Bing's main reason for going to the Green Bamboo Sect was not to register him in this competition but rather that he had a personal affair with the patriarch of the sect.
Instantly Zhou Yuan's mind came to mind about his engagement to the Patriarch's son.
Zhou Yuan's face reddened, feeling embarrassed that his Grandfather read his mind like a book.
In the end Zhou Yuan still refused his Grandfather's invitation, arguing that he still wanted to rest here longer.
"Then Grandfather will leave you here, if you get bored, you can take a walk around the sect, there are many other participants who do the same..."
Zhou Yuan nodded, "well Grandfather, Yuan will think about it."
Green Bamboo Sect is too beautiful to be a sect, if they do not use it in martial affairs, where this sect can be used as a tourist spot.
It is not surprising that there are many outside participants who are so amazed when they get here, the scenery and atmosphere support someone to relax.
After his Grandfather left, Zhou Yuan chose to cleanse himself and fill his stomach. Zhou Yuan actually wanted to train again but because last night had been doing exercises that made him mentally exhausted, he finally chose to rest first.
Zhou Yuan made use of that empty time to walk around the sect just like his grandfather had said.
There is a path that connects one place to another in this sect, on the right or left side embedded bamboo trees that lined up high enough.
Occasionally Zhou Yuan passed by a Green Bamboo Sect disciple who was still on duty serving the newly enlisted participants.
The competition will be held in two days, as long as there will also be other participants who will enter and meet the sect. Because the sect was so vast, Zhou Yuan had yet to see its barrier wall despite having walked around for a few minutes.
The Green Bamboo Sect was the largest sect in the Moon Empire, not because of its vast territory but because their strength was also very calculated in the martial world.
There are three heroes in the Green Bamboo sect who are now elders of the sect, the three heroes are warriors who are among the 10 strongest heroes in the Moon Empire such as Xiao Fan.
"Hm, hold on, where is this?"
Zhou Yuan's daydream was split when he realized his surroundings had become different and foreign as he continued to move on.
Zhou Yuan did not want to take the risk and turned around but he found three crossroads before him. Zhou Yuan scratched his head, so confused as to not know which direction he had come from earlier.
Zhou Yuan saw that he wished there was someone, but all he found was solitude and silence. This made Zhou Yuan think he was in the wrong place.
Nibbling his lips, Zhou Yuan was forced to take one direction and hope that his choice was right heading back to the inn.
Zhou Yuan's choice was in fact wrong but he found something from that direction in the form of a waterfall.
"I didn't expect that in this sect there was a waterfall..." Zhou Yuan was amazed to see the height of the waterfall is very steep seen from below.
"Who's there?"
Someone suddenly spoke to Zhou Yuan's voice, made the young man become alert and turned to the source of the voice.
Zhou Yuan's eyes widened to see that there was a woman near the waterfall, the problem was that she was currently soaking there naked. The two looked at each other with different emotions.
