Chapter 210 Dangerous True Immortal Trial, Refining Gu, Refining People, Refining Heaven

The mysterious old man heard Lu Chen's words and immediately said with a smile: "You don't even know what I want you to do, and you agreed so quickly?"

"If I want you to die, what will you do?"

“Yes!”

Before Lu Chen could answer, Shangguan Yunmeng next to him finally reacted.

Although the other monks felt that the old man's tone seemed to be joking.

But they also had to admit that there was nothing wrong with what the old man said.

If the old man really asked them to die, they would not really go and die.

Thinking of this, the expressions of some monks began to become serious.

Think about what they should do if they cannot complete or are simply unable to complete what the old man said.

But unlike the nervous people around him, Lu Chen appeared to be very calm.

"If you really want us to die, you could have done it before in the bamboo forest. There's no need to waste your breath with us."

"Oh? Interesting."

The old man looked at Lu Chen and seemed to have seen something interesting.

Then he looked me up and down and said with a smile, "Did you notice me then?"

In response, Lu Chen said calmly: "I just found that there is an unusual atmosphere around me."

After these words were spoken, the old man looked at Lu Chen with a more playful look.

The others looked at Lu Chen in astonishment.

You know, when they were in the bamboo forest just now, they didn't find anything.

As for how Lu Chen discovered the 'old man', the principle was very simple.

That is Di Ting’s fate, the nine innate energies.

Although monks can hide their spiritual power, making it difficult for outsiders to discover themselves.

Spiritual power is just one of the nine kinds of qi.

Ever since Lu Chen obtained the fate of Di Ting.

The world before his eyes became more colorful.

Killing intent, hatred, anger, dead air, frustration, happiness...

All emotional fluctuations will appear in front of Lu Chen in the form of special aura and color.

For example, once someone harbors murderous intentions towards Lu Chen, even if the other party hides the murderous intent very well.

But Lu Chen could still see it through the 'Nine Innate Qi' on his body.

Relying on this ability, Lu Chen can obtain many auras that ordinary people cannot obtain.

For example, what Lu Chen saw in the old man at this moment was the symbol of friendly "goodwill".

Although there is no shortage of crazy people in this world who would show "kindness" to others while killing them.

But Lu Chen still said the same thing, if the other party wanted to attack him and others.

The other party could have taken action before in the bamboo forest.

There is no need to wait until now.

After observing Lu Chen for a while, the old man seemed to have discovered something from him.

Then he smiled and said, "Logically speaking, I shouldn't let you in, someone like you who already carries the legacy, but you are very much to my taste."

"Okay, I won't waste my time with you anymore. I think you should have guessed my identity, right?"

Lu Chen said respectfully: "I am Lu Chen, a disciple of Qingyun Sect, and I pay my respects to the Immortal Gu Yue."

Seeing this, the others nearby also saluted.

The old man waved his hand and said, "Forget it, forget it. I am essentially just a remnant of my original body left here. You can just treat me as an ordinary old man."

"You can call me Fang Yuan, there is no Fang Yuan without rules."

After saying that, the old man finally told Lu Chen and others what he wanted them to do.

"What I want you to do is very simple. You need to find my lost 'wine bug' and bring it back within three months."

"Whoever can bring back my wine bug can directly enter the second level of this Gathering Immortal Bell, and I can also pass on to him a longevity immortal method as a reward."

"Of course, if you don't want these, you can also exchange them for a reward of equal value."

"Over the years, I have collected a lot of good things. I promise you will be satisfied."

When Gu Yue Fangyuan said this, his eyes were always on Lu Chen.

The meaning is self-evident.

Because he knew that even if Lu Chen finally found the Moonlight Gu, he probably wouldn't want his inheritance.

This is not the case with others.

Most people became excited after hearing about the rewards for completing the task.

But after the excitement, their expressions gradually became serious.

Because there was only one moonlight insect, but there were more than twenty people present.

If we count those who left early, then there are more than fifty people competing for one moonlight insect.

That’s right, although some people left the bamboo forest early.

But this does not mean that they will not participate in this competition.

If their guess was correct, Gu Yue Fangyuan should have given them more than just requirements.

Requirements should also be put forward to other cultivators who participated in this True Immortal Trial.

It would be fine if there were only fifty of them fighting for the moonlight insect.

What if other monks who are not in this bamboo forest also receive this task.

They were like hundreds of people fighting for a drinking bug.

The competition is so fierce that it is beyond words.

After all, apart from Lu Chen, who is currently the most powerful person in the world.

The next tier of monks are also not comparable to ordinary monks.

Juechen, the Buddhist disciple of Xiao Leiyin Temple, Xing Li, the quasi-celestial being of Wushen Mountain, Shangguan Yunmeng, the saint girl of Yuxu Mountain, Yi Hanqing and King Meow of Qingyun Sect, etc.

None of these guys are simple.

Thinking of this, a cultivator couldn't help but ask Gu Yue Fang Yuan: "Fang Yuan, Immortal, is there only one wine bug?"

Hearing this, Gu Yue Fang Yuan showed a joking expression: "Did I say there is only one alcohol bug?"

"Also, I want to remind you that not all bugs can be called alcohol bugs."

Just when everyone wanted to get more information, a fog appeared around the hut.

A white mist covered the whole area, and visibility was less than half a meter.

When the fog cleared, not only Gu Yue Fangyuan disappeared in front of everyone.

Even the thatched hut in front of everyone disappeared.

Looking at the empty bamboo forest.

If everyone didn't remember what had just happened, they would even doubt whether they had just experienced a dream.

And at the same time Gu Yue Fangyuan disappeared.

A special task panel appeared in front of Lu Chen.

[Special Mission: Special 'Wine Bug' in the Ordinary Ancient Moon Cave (Juxian Bell)]

[Task initiator: Gu Yue Zhenxian]

[Quest Reward: Immortal Immortality Technique*1, Direct Access to the Second Floor of the Ancient Moon Cave (Gathering Immortal Bell), 500,000 Experience Points]

[Note: The task reward depends on the quality of the wine worm]

Lu Chen looked at the task panel that suddenly appeared in front of him.

I immediately understood the specific content of this mission.

The so-called wine worm should not refer to a single type of poisonous worm, but a class of poisonous worms.

Otherwise, there would be no mention of the quality of the wine bug in the task prompt.

In addition, Lu Chen also obtained another piece of information from this task panel.

That is the 'Gu Yue Zhen Xian' that everyone has always believed, or the real name should be 'Gu Yue Zhen Xian'.

Its name is not Gu Yue Fang Yuan, but Gu Yue Fang Yuan.

In fact, there are not many records about the Immortal Gu Yue in the world of immortal cultivation.

All I know is that the other party suddenly appeared at a certain period of time.

Moreover, the other party obviously has extensive friends in the world of immortal cultivation, and many famous immortals are his friends.

But for some reason, there is not much information about the Immortal Gu Yue.

This is either because Gu Yue Zhenxian is a low-key person.

Or the other party did it intentionally.

Lu Chen personally prefers the latter.

After all, a person who can leave a true immortal legacy in the mortal world should be a person who cares about the world.

Logically speaking, he should have left traces in many legends and allusions.

However, these are just Lu Chen's guesses, and he can't jump to conclusions.

Everything will be decided after he passes this True Immortal Trial.

"Friend Lu, what do you think we should do now?"

Shangguan Yunmeng looked at Lu Chen and asked curiously.

Knowing that there was more than one alcoholic, everyone was no longer anxious.

After all, only the first person who brings the wine worm to Gu Yue Zhenxian can get the reward.

And not everyone can be the first.

Especially when they are with Lu Chen, who is recognized as the strongest cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Facing everyone's questions, Lu Chen thought for a moment and said, "No hurry, let's investigate the surroundings first."

"I always feel that this place...is not simple."

Seeing Lu Chen being so cautious, although everyone had different thoughts, in the end no one objected.

There is no other reason, it’s just that Lu Chen is the strongest.

At the same time, Lu Chen and others appeared at the outskirts of the bamboo forest.

The three monks who had not chosen to follow Lu Chen at the beginning were now about to walk out of the bamboo forest.

And just now, the words of Immortal Gu Yue appeared in their minds.

The meaning it conveyed was also very simple, which was to let them find a way to find the 'wine bug' and bring it to the Immortal Gu Yue.

After hearing the content of the mission, Sui Shaobao, a disciple of Donghai Sect, one of the ten major sects in Zhongzhou, said with relief: "Fortunately, we did not choose to act together with Lu Chen from Qingyun Sect."

"Otherwise, even if we find the wine bug, it will most likely not fall into our hands."

The two disciples from the Donghai Sect nearby nodded and said, "Brother, what you said is absolutely right. This True Immortal Trial is a great opportunity for us to change our fate."

"If you still hesitate at this point, you will undoubtedly be giving this opportunity to others for nothing."

"Besides, I don't think this True Immortal Trial will be too dangerous. After all, beings like Gu Yue True Immortal would not design inheritance trials that are too dangerous."

"If the three of us join forces, even if we can't defeat Lu Chen, we can still fight against the geniuses from other sects."

"Therefore, it is the best option for the three of us fellow disciples to break away from the main group and act together."

Hearing what his fellow disciple said, Sui Shaobao immediately smiled.

"You're right. If the three of us join forces, as long as we don't provoke monsters like Lu Chen and Xing Li, there should be few who can threaten us in this True Immortal Trial."

"This is just a trial after all."

After saying that, Sui Shaobao raised his head and looked into the distance.

I saw a human town not far away outside the bamboo forest.

Looking at the town, the three of them immediately prepared to walk into the town to find out some information about the "wine bug".

And these three people are not fools.

Although they were not clear about the situation in this town of True Immortal Trial, they followed the principle of being cautious.

They all chose to disguise themselves before entering the town.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The first place they went to was the inn in the town.

After all, only in places like inns where there is a large flow of people can you be the most well-informed.

Soon, the three of them arrived outside the town.

The name of the town is...Yuzhu Town.

What made Sui Shaobao and the other two feel strange was that they had obviously changed their clothes to be similar to those of the people around them, and their behavior was not too outstanding.

But as soon as they entered the town, they felt something was secretly watching them.

Although they tried several times to find out the person who was spying on them.

But they never found it.

Finally they had no choice but to give up and came to an inn in Yuzhu Town.

"Objective, are you three staying at the hotel, or are you having a drink?"

Sui Shaobao said in a calm voice: "Drink some wine."

"Okay!"

The waiter called out enthusiastically, then led the three of them to an empty table on the third floor.

For some reason, the originally noisy inn suddenly became quiet for a moment after seeing the three people.

They even noticed that some people showed excited expressions when they saw them appear.

This gave Sui Shaobao an inexplicable feeling of foreboding.

But right now, they have been overwhelmed by the 'True Immortal Heritage'.

All I could think about was how to be the first person to find the alcohol bug.

So even if they found something wrong, they did not choose to leave.

After all, in their perception, they didn’t find anyone with cultivation in this inn, let alone one in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

They are just a bunch of mortals, let them watch.

It can't have any impact on them at all.

After sitting down on the third floor, the three of them casually ordered some home-cooked dishes, took out a gold ingot and placed it in front of the waiter.

"Have you ever heard of the wine bug?"

The waiter's eyes suddenly lit up when he looked at the gold in front of him.

Then he put away the gold and whispered, "Are you asking about the kind of 'insect' that can make wine?"

Sui Shaobao and the other two looked at each other and told them directly that the poisonous insect the waiter was talking about was what they were looking for.

Without any hesitation, Sui Shaobao took out another ingot of gold and said, "Tell me where I can find the poisonous insect, and this ingot of gold will be yours."

Without any hesitation, the waiter said, "In our Yuzhu Town, there are only two families that are capable of brewing 'spiritual wine', the Luo family in the east of the city, and the Chen family in the west of the city."

"If you three want to find the drinking bug, then it's absolutely right to go to them."

"Do you have any other questions, objective people?"

Sui Shaobao thought for a moment and said, "Do the Luo family and Chen family you mentioned have any special abilities?"

The waiter seemed to have guessed that Sui Shaobao would ask this question, and replied with a smile: "Both of their families were canonized by the imperial court, so they naturally have some abilities."

"But you three are obviously not ordinary people. If you come to ask, you should have a chance to get some wine from them."

Hearing this, Sui Shaobao and the other two suppressed their inner excitement and said calmly, "Okay, you go down first."

"Okay, everyone, take a good rest. We will bring your order up in a moment."

After the waiter left, Sui Shaobao immediately stuck a talisman just below the table in front of him.

With the help of the 'soundproofing', Sui Shaobao ensured that other guests nearby could not hear their voices.

After doing all this, Sui Shaobao tried his best to restrain himself, but still lowered his voice and said in a slightly excited tone: "Junior Brother Huang, Junior Brother Dong, you all heard what he said, right? Do you two think we should visit directly or sneak in at night?"

Huang Haiming replied: "Let's investigate further. I always feel that something is wrong with Yuzhu Town. I have a bad feeling."

Dong Jieshou, who was standing by, looked at him with disdain and said sarcastically, "You were frightened by just some mortals. You are a disciple of our Donghai Sect."

"If you ask me, we should hurry up and find the wine worm as soon as possible and send it to Immortal Gu Yue."

"After all, we are not the only three people looking for this wine bug. There must be others who have already come into contact with this information just like us."

"If we can't get ahead of them, this great opportunity will be lost to others."

"Let's just go to your house, Brother Sui."

"With your perfect foundation-building cultivation, plus the support of the Dao-entering spear intent, even if we encounter a Jindan-stage cultivator, we can run away if we can't defeat him."

"I don't believe that the Luo family and the Chen family are so powerful that they can keep the three of us here."

"Didn't you hear what the waiter said just now? The Luo family and the Chen family are just ordinary families canonized by the imperial court."

"How many true monk families would be willing to obey the mortal dynasty?"

"If I'm not mistaken, they are probably just some martial arts families similar to those in the mortal world of Zhongzhou."

"Those martial arts families may be able to bully ordinary people, but when it comes to us, they are no different from ants."

"If they are willing to give up their alcohol bugs, that's fine. If not, then find a reason to kill them."

"They are just some mortals in the True Immortal Trial. What can they do to us?"

"Besides, don't forget, Senior Brother, this place is not far from the bamboo forest. If we really encounter an existence that we cannot resist, the worst that can happen is that we can just run directly to the bamboo forest and seek help from other cultivators."

"Let's get started, Senior Brother. If we are a step slower, others will be a step faster. This is the inheritance of the True Immortal."

"Do you want to watch it fall into the hands of others?"

After hearing this, Sui Shaobao seemed to have made a decision.

He immediately stood up and said resolutely: "Okay, then let's go to the Luo family and ask first."

"If they really have a drinking bug, then we won't take it for nothing. At worst, we can just exchange some treasures in our storage bag with them."

Upon hearing this, Dong Jieshou next to him immediately became excited.

"That's it. There's no time to lose. Brother, let's stop trying to find out any information. Let's just take action."

"I haven't met a single cultivator along the way. I guess this is just an ordinary town. There's no danger here."

"OK."

Huang Haiming, one of the three, felt that the two's decision was still too rash.

But his influence was insignificant, so he had no choice but to obey the decision of the two.

After finding out the location of the Luo family, the three of them immediately walked towards the Luo family.

What the two of them didn't notice was that the waiter was standing next to the table they had just left, with a mysterious smile on his face.

"Since ancient times, those with a short life have always been those who have lofty ambitions..."

As he spoke, the waiter's figure gradually became illusory.

Soon, he turned into the old man of Gu Yue Zhenxian.

The other diners around seemed to be completely oblivious to this.

As Gu Yue Zhenxian walked out of the inn, he recited an ancient poem: "I knew at an early age that the world was difficult, but I still wanted to fly high in the world. One day, I will point my sword to the clouds, refine people, refine Gu... and refine the sky."

As for the direction that Gu Yue Zhenxian was heading, it was exactly the direction of the Luo family in Yu Clan Town.

At the same time, somewhere in the Jade Clan Forest.

"Friend Lu, why have you been looking at the sky since just now? Is there something strange in the sky?"

Shangguan Yunmeng looked at Lu Chen, who had been meditating and looking at the sky ever since Immortal Gu Yue left, with a very strange expression on his face.

Also not understanding what Lu Chen was doing was King Meow not far away.

You should know that after Lu Chen asked everyone to go and find out what was going on around him, he sat alone in an open space in the bamboo forest, staring blankly at the sky above his head, and has been sitting there until now.

In response to Shangguan Yunmeng's words, Lu Chen said in an inexplicable tone: "Fellow Daoist Shangguan, do you think this Juxian Bell... is really a bell?"

"Or do you think this 'clock' is the same as the 'clock' we know?"

"ah?!"

Shangguan Yunmeng's face was confused, with question marks all over her forehead.

Although she was unwilling to admit it, Shangguan Yunmeng always felt that Lu Chen had a deep misunderstanding of her!

Does she look like a smart person?

Otherwise, why would Lu Chen like to say some confusing things to me again and again?

She understood every word of these words, but when they were put together, she couldn't understand a single word! What is this Juxian Bell? Is it really a bell? It's called Juxian Bell, what else can it be if not a bell? Although Shangguan Yunmeng didn't understand what Lu Chen was saying, she didn't show it at this time.

Because she didn't want Lu Chen to think she was a fool who couldn't even understand what he was saying.

So Shangguan Yunmeng said with a straight face: "Daoyou Lu is right."

The best way to act smart is to just believe and not question.

Shangguan Yunmeng has used this trick time and again, and it works great! Because doubts require explanations, but belief doesn't! And Lu Chen didn't seem to think about getting an answer from Shangguan Yunmeng.

Or maybe he just wanted to find someone to talk to.

Lu Chen looked at the sky above his head and suddenly sighed: "Gathering Immortal Bell, Gathering Immortal Bell, if you think about it from another angle, this Gathering Immortal Bell...why can't it be a Gu Bell?"

"It attracted us here in order to select the strongest among them, just like refining a Gu."

"From ancient times to the present, no insect in the Gu Bell has been able to remain unscathed."

"Perhaps this True Immortal Trial is a hundred times more dangerous than we imagined..."

After saying that, Lu Chen stood up.

"Let's go. Several fellow Taoists have already returned. I think they also brought the news I want."

"I hope I'm wrong. Otherwise, from the moment we step into this True Immortal Trial, it won't be easy to escape."

Although she didn't understand what Lu Chen was saying, Shangguan Yunmeng still nodded seriously.

"Friend Lu is right."

On the other side, King Meow looked at the two people, one was really smart and the other was pretending to be smart, and shook his head speechlessly.

Perhaps only two people like this can get along harmoniously with each other.

At least King Meow hates the Riddler the most. Riddler, get out!
