Moreover, the reason why the Hidden Dragon Sect secluded themselves was because of this highly poisonous true energy. Once they went into seclusion, food became the biggest problem. Therefore, they had to sneak away from Hidden Dragon Mountain to purchase supplies so that no one would discover them. They spent more than ten years like this.

No one understood the situation of the Qianlong Sect better than Qianxin. Many times he felt helpless, helpless because he had no way to deal with this poisonous true energy, helpless because he could not do anything for the Qianlong Sect, and could only stand there and watch the people of the Qianlong Sect.

Adding to his grief were the deaths of many of the members of the Hidden Dragon Cult who had just been controlled by the vampires. Those people were, in a sense, his family.

Now that he saw that Chen Zhou was able to help the people of the Hidden Dragon Sect detoxify, and even succeeded in one case, he was naturally very happy and wished he could immediately become Chen Zhou's disciple. However, Chen Zhou was only at the Enlightenment stage and was also their leader, so he could not become his disciple.

Although Qianxin had already reached the Golden Core stage, he had long since let go of the pride that belonged to the Golden Core stage by living in the Qianlong Sect for many years. Therefore, Qianxin had always been humbly learning from others, such as how to take care of others, which had been Qianxin's normal routine for many days.

Although I spend most of my time in seclusion, I use my free time to help others, as learning to take care of others is an essential skill.

No, naturally one must humbly learn from others. In the beginning, Qianxin rarely asked others for help, but gradually he realized that without asking others, his actions were flawed. So he slowly began to humbly learn from others. It was at this time that Qianxin slowly let go of the pride that belonged to the Golden Core stage.

In fact, he was no different from the others. He was just lucky and was not affected by the poisonous energy. They were only contaminated by the poisonous energy because they were covering for him. Therefore, Qianxin never underestimated anyone from the Qianlong Sect.

The reason why his body was not attacked by the poisonous true energy was largely due to the existence of his own Qianlong Sect. If it weren't for the other members of the Qianlong Sect blocking the poisonous true energy, he would probably not be in this world now.

In his generation, there were many geniuses, but his own talent was not particularly outstanding. Compared with the members of the Hidden Dragon Sect of that generation, Qianxin could only be considered above average. However, they were all corrupted by the highly poisonous true energy and ultimately did not live to this day, but died cruelly.

Because the highly toxic true energy is a nightmare for those with abundant true energy, but it doesn't have as much of an impact on those with weaker strength, as it doesn't endanger their lives.

This highly poisonous energy is designed to wait for those poisoned by it to grow stronger so that it can absorb more energy. In a sense, it is also intelligent.

“Elder Qianxin, you don’t need to thank me. Even if I don’t become your leader, I will still do my best to help you. My master emphasized to me before I left that I must help the three sects of Wolong no matter what the cost.” Chen Zhou continued to think for a moment and then said.

Perhaps it would be best to attribute the credit to Xi Xiangchen, Chen Zhou thought.

Chen Zhou never thought about making any significant contribution to the Wolong Three Sects or how he would be remembered in history. He only wanted to help as many people as possible. These people were all innocent, and they had all stepped forward to protect the people of the South and the North. If it weren't for that, they wouldn't have been infected by this deadly poisonous energy.

Moreover, they were all powerful cultivators who could have easily escaped and hidden behind the people using their true energy. However, they did not do so. Instead, they resolutely stood at the forefront, blocking the spread of the highly poisonous true energy. In the end, the highly poisonous true energy only affected them and did not cross the human wall they formed even slightly.

That was enough to make them proud.

Moreover, that battle is considered the most brutal war, because countless members of the three factions of Wolong died on the battlefield.

"No, you are now our most respected leader. We are all willing to follow you. Although your strength is still weak, we believe in your ability. In the near future, you will definitely surpass us and lead us to a new peak." Qianxin was now full of confidence in Chen Zhou and immediately cheered him on.

Moreover, after Qianxin finished speaking, all the elders began to express their loyalty to Chen Zhou and their encouragement to him.

The Wolong Three Sects are a very classical sect, so they unconditionally believe in the selection of the true dragon phantom in the divine array. Therefore, anyone selected by the true dragon phantom has led the Wolong Three Sects to the peak.

Although the strength of the three Wolong factions declined sharply after Xi Xiangchen took command, they still managed to repel the vampires and win numerous battles. However, it is now likely that the Wolong factions will be unable to withstand the vampires' next large-scale attack.

Chen Zhou was also worried about this: if war really broke out, what would he do? If he represented the three sects of Wolong in the war, there would definitely be people gossiping about his Jianyun Sect.

However, Chen Zhou was not afraid of these things, because he was the leader of the three sects of Wolong, the leader of countless people. In contrast, he was just a small disciple in the Jianyun Sect, although he now held the title of outer sect elder. The difference in responsibility between the two was obvious.

The responsibility of being the leader of the three sects of Wolong is certainly greater than that of the outer sect elder of the Jianyun Sect.
