Chapter 254 No, how come you are about to become my fellow Taoist without knowing it?

Zhongzhou, Qingyun Sect.

At this time, a month has passed since the end of the True Immortal Trial.

When I went to the True Immortal Trial before, because the True Immortal Trial had not yet started, I had to stop and go along the way. It took me nearly half a year to reach Zuiyun Sea where the True Immortal Trial was located.

But it won’t be so troublesome when you come back.

After several teleportation arrays, the journey that would have taken half a year to complete was now completed in about a month.

When the immortal boat arrived at Qingyun Sect, Lu Chen got off the boat immediately and flew towards Danyang Peak.

Now he has met all the conditions for breaking through the Jindan stage.

Naturally, he would not continue to waste time on other places and directly began to prepare for the breakthrough to the Jindan stage.

Besides, he has not forgotten his real self and is still facing the threat of the Black Lotus Sect.

Although the Black Lotus in reality is not as powerful as the Black Lotus in the game.

But as an organization that has been able to operate under the nose of the Immortal Alliance for so long in reality.

I think there are some tricks inside.

Even though Lu Chen had already found a few Nascent Soul stage masters to help.

But as the saying goes, it is better to rely on yourself than on others.

As long as his cultivation reaches the Golden Core Stage, even if he cannot defeat an ordinary Yuanying Stage cultivator, he will definitely have no problem protecting himself.

Therefore, whether it is for one's own safety or to improve one's strength as quickly as possible before the catastrophe comes.

Lu Chen’s top priority now is to find a way to break through the Jindan stage first.

Danyang Peak, outside Jinggong Cave.

"Master, disciple Lu Chen requests to see you."

As soon as Lu Chen finished speaking outside the cave, the door of Jing Gong's cave opened.

"Come in."

Lu Chen stood up and entered the cave, and soon saw Jing Gong tinkering with the alchemy furnace.

I saw that half of Jing Gong's fat body had been stuffed into the furnace, leaving only the other half outside.

Lu Chen looked at this scene with a lot of question marks on his head.

Because he didn't understand what Jing Gong was doing.

Seeing that Lu Chen had no eyesight at all, Jing Gong, who was trapped in the furnace, couldn't help but said, "Don't, don't watch it, come over and give me a hand."

Hearing this, Lu Chen stepped forward and "rescued" Jing Gong from the alchemy furnace.

Bang! As soon as Jing Gong came out, he sat down on the ground.

The 200-pound weight immediately caused the entire ground to vibrate noticeably.

Looking at the dusty Jing Gong, Lu Chen couldn't help but ask, "Master, what are you doing?"

Jing Gong stood up, dusted himself off, and said calmly, "Cleaning the furnace, can't you see that?"

“…”

I saw that they were cleaning the alchemy furnace, but this was the first time I saw someone cleaning the furnace to the point of getting himself stuck in it.

Master, it turns out that not only are you an expert at alchemy, but you are also an expert at making things happen.

Of course, Lu Chen only thought about these words in his mind and did not say them directly.

Lu Chen was still clear about the principle of not hitting someone in the face.

Perhaps Jing Gong also felt that it was a bit stupid for him to clean the alchemy furnace until he got stuck, so he immediately changed the subject and said, "By the way, I heard that you did a lot of things in this True Immortal Trial, but I only heard about these things, and I don't know how much of them are true or false. Tell me about it."

Hearing this, Lu Chen immediately briefly talked about his experience in this True Immortal Trial.

By the way, he also told Jing Gong about his experience that the True Immortal Trial was just a dream.

Jing Gong didn't seem surprised by this, and his expression didn't change at all.

"So, you have gained a lot from this True Immortal Trial?"

Lu Chen said modestly: "It's just a small gain, not a big one."

Jing Gong said unhappily, "Alright, alright, don't I know what kind of personality you have? Others always do one thing and say ten things, and try to exaggerate themselves as much as possible."

"But you are different. You only do one thing and only say one thing. You are afraid that others will look down on you. I don't know what you have been through to be so cautious."

In response to Jing Gong's teasing, Lu Chen just smiled and did not respond.

Seeing this, Jing Gong also started laughing.

After laughing, Jing Gong's expression suddenly became serious.

Then he closed his cave, looking like he had something important to say to Lu Chen.

Although Jing Gong hadn't spoken yet, Lu Chen guessed what Jing Gong wanted to say to him at the first moment.

As expected, what Jing Gong wanted to tell him was that before he went to the True Immortal Trial, the head of the sect, Gu Liqing, secretly investigated the evil immortals of the Giant Spirit Sect in East Shenzhou.

At that time, Lu Chen had used the incident of the evil in the Great Yan Dynasty to make the head of the sect, Gu Liqing, pay attention to the issue of evil.

But the evil ones at that time did not show any great danger, and those guys were also hiding very well.

As a result, Gu Liqing would not take the evil matter seriously just because of Lu Chen's words.

After all, Qingyun Sect is such a big company, there are so many things to consider.

To a group of little mice that suddenly emerged from the gutter.

The fact that Gu Liqing was able to arrange this matter personally showed that he valued Lu Chen very much.

After all, that was the reason why Gu Liqing was willing to investigate the evil at that time.

Besides, he suspected that there might be a connection between Xie Nie and the sudden extermination of those small sects in Zhongzhou.

Another reason was that he thought there might be some unsolvable hatred between Lu Chen and He Nie.

Unlike other sects, Qingyun Sect not only values ​​the cultivation aptitude of its disciples, but also pays attention to their character.

And Lu Chen has fully proved that not only does he have amazing aptitude for cultivation, but his character is also excellent.

Therefore, Gu Liqing didn't want Lu Chen to develop some kind of obsession and affect his mood because of this kind of thing, so he decided to personally intervene in this evil matter.

Calculating the time, almost half a year has passed since he returned from the True Immortal Trial.

After the past six months, I think there have been some results.

"Master, what you want to say should be related to the headmaster, right?"

Jing Gong nodded, and then said seriously: "The Juling Sect you mentioned before, the head brother took several senior cultivators from the sect to go there in person."

"I thought that with the help of the head brother and several senior cultivators, it shouldn't be difficult to subdue a mere foreign demon."

"But the outcome was unexpected. The leader of the Giant Spirit Sect used some secret method at the last moment and was rescued by someone by chance. Only a few cats and dogs were left."

"I underestimated the methods of those guys."

Hearing this, Lu Chen was silent for a moment and then said, "But after this incident, the leader should also understand the danger of evil, right?"

"Yes, he was able to escape from the hands of our sect leader and several high-ranking practitioners. That guy is indeed quite capable."

"If it's just like this, it's fine. After all, a Yuanying stage person can't cause any trouble."

"But the bad thing is that he is obviously not alone. If the sect behind him has multiple experts like him, or there are people above the Nascent Soul stage, then for us, it is indeed a big threat and worth our serious treatment."

At this point, Jing Gong didn't know what he was thinking about, and said speechlessly: "In fact, after seeing the other party escape, the head brother once thought of directly investigating all the sects in the entire East Shenzhou and uprooting all the rats hiding here."

"At first, things went smoothly. The head brother found several sects that were similar to the Juling Sect, which had been usurped by the enemy."

"But just after our head brother dealt with a few small sects, high-ranking cultivators from other sects came to us and told us not to continue."

"Among them... there are even some who are not weaker than the head brother. Xiao Lu, you should know what this means."

Although I knew it would not be easy to solve the problem.

But Lu Chen didn't expect that this matter had just begun, and a cultivator from Zhongzhou had already appeared to act as a peacemaker.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The depth of the water was a little beyond my expectations.

Lu Chen looked at Jing Gong and replied, "Master, what you mean is that the reason these evildoers have been able to develop to their current level is that perhaps some Zhongzhou sects are secretly supporting them?"

"Yeah, that's what I mean."

At this point, Jing Gong said indignantly: "I don't know what these guys are thinking. They actually use the reason of Yin and Yang to persuade us, saying that the stability of Zhongzhou now is because these evil demons occupy the Yin, so that we, the upright cultivators, can not occupy the Yang and not fight each other."

"If we want to eliminate all these evil demons that symbolize 'Yin', then what we have to deal with next is a group of former righteous sects that are passively called 'Yin'."

"In this way, the originally stable situation in Zhongzhou will not only be broken in an instant, but will even fall into an endless struggle."

"Therefore, maintaining the current situation and even allowing these evil demons to show some threat is not only not a bad thing for our righteous sects, but a good thing."

"Because only when we face a common enemy can we, the righteous sects, avoid fighting each other."

After hearing this, Lu Chen fell silent.

Because if you look at this issue from a pure and objective perspective without any emotion.

Then allowing some evil spirits to survive in Zhongzhou will indeed bring more benefits than disadvantages to the overall situation.

Once these evil sects are gone as obvious "demonic sects", most of the righteous sects will lose their goals and it will be difficult for them to unite against the common enemy.

There is no "morality" as a constraint, and no "magic" as a benchmark for the enemy.

The relationship between the various sects in Zhongzhou will return to the original situation.

That is the struggle for resources, territories, adventures, etc. It is real and cruel.

Therefore, even Lu Chen had to admit that there was some truth in what he said.

But that’s all.

Because he understood that He Nie was not a small character that they could control.

Rather, it is a wild beast lurking in the shadows with huge ambitions.

Its appetite is so big that it can even swallow the entire Qingyun Realm.

If you try to get the skin of a tiger, you may end up getting burned.

But Lu Chen also knew that it was because of his experiences in several copies that he finally understood the danger of evil.

Others don’t have the mini-game called “Real Cultivation of Immortality”.

They had no idea what the evil and the ancient evil behind the evil represented.

Therefore, Lu Chen had already guessed what Jing Gong was going to say next.

He still asked, "In that case, is this how the Sect Master decided to resolve the matter?"

Jing Gong looked at Lu Chen seriously for a moment, then said, "The headmaster said that he will not stop, but because of the attitudes of other sects, the investigation can only be carried out in secret."

"Because this is a transition from open to covert, the intensity and progress of the investigation will definitely be much worse than originally thought."

"So the head brother asked me to tell you that the current situation is very complicated. He knows that you have some kind of obsession with these guys, but for your safety, he suggests that you don't interfere in this matter for a short time. When he has almost finished investigating, he will let you settle the cause and effect with them with your own hands. What do you think, Xiao Lu?"

Hearing this, Lu Chen was silent for a moment and then said, "Then let's do as the Sect Leader says."

After getting this answer, Jing Gong was obviously relieved.

"That's good. I was really worried that you would get stuck in a rut."

"It would have been fine if I didn't know those guys had the strength of the Nascent Soul Stage before, but now that I know this, I personally hope you don't take risks. Fortunately, you didn't let me down."

Lu Chen said calmly: "Master, although I am still a beginner, I never do anything without confidence, so I will not take risks."

Jing Gong smiled and responded, "That's true. Among the entire young generation of disciples, if we only talk about the degree of caution, you are the best and no one can be second."

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. You came to me as soon as you got back. There must be something wrong, right?"

"Don't say you came to see me. You are the kind of person who never comes to visit me for no reason. Every time you come, there must be something wrong."

"Tell me, what do you want me to do for you?"

Looking at Jing Gong’s painful expression as if his gold coins were about to explode.

Even someone like Lu Chen, who had a flexible moral bottom line, couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed at this moment.

If he thought about it carefully, every time he came to Jing Gong, he really had something to ask for.

It looked like he was treating the Jing Palace as a piggy bank.

However, Lu Chen's embarrassment only lasted for a moment.

Then he showed his current level of cultivation without any concealment.

As the majestic cultivation spread, Jing Gong, who was originally sitting, could no longer sit still.

He looked at Lu Chen in shock. After looking him up and down, he said in shock, "No, what happened to you? How did you achieve such a high level of cultivation without realizing it?"

"Don't tell me that the reason you came to me was to try to break through to the Golden Core Stage. How long have you been practicing?"

"Even if he is the reincarnation of my Qingyun Sect's founder, his cultivation is not as exaggerated as yours."

Facing Jing Gong's shock, Lu Chen replied, "Master, you misunderstood. A large part of the reason why I was able to achieve this level of cultivation is because of the small gains I made in this True Immortal Trial."

Jing Gong narrowed his eyes and said in a strange tone: "Are you sure it's just a small gain?"

"Sure."

Good, good, good, a small gain

With this small achievement, you can progress from the Qi training stage to the foundation building stage in less than ten years.

If this brings you great benefits, you might as well ascend to heaven right away!
