Chapter 68 The Secret That Cannot Be Told

Los Angeles No. 1 Middle School, October 15th.

"Hey Uncle Tian, ​​what's wrong?"

After listening to what Yu Tianqi said on the phone, Lu Chen felt very good.

Because on the phone, Yu Tianqi told him that the guy who lurked in his house with the intention of doing something bad had been arrested three days ago, so Lu Chen could rest assured.

After that, Yu Tianqi suddenly started talking about what happened to Lu Chen ten years ago.

Ask him if he saw anything special when the Black Lotus Cult performed the 'Nine-Day Blood Lotus Formation' in the southern part of the city ten years ago.

The reason why Yu Tianqi asked him was very simple.

That is, Lu Chen was one of the few survivors of the great changes in the southern part of Luo City.

Although Lu Chen was only eight years old at the time, Yu Tianqi still wanted to see if he could get some clues from Lu Chen.

After all, after so many years of investigation, Yu Tianqi roughly understood the purpose of the Black Lotus Cult setting up the Nine Heavens Blood Lotus Formation in Luo City.

The so-called Nine Heavens Blood Lotus Formation is essentially a sacrificial formation.

The effect is that the people in the formation can be used as sacrifices to please the ancient deity they believe in... the compassionate Black Lotus Buddha Mother.

In exchange for some special rewards from that ancient being.

However, the Nine Heavens Blood Lotus Formation was accidentally broken by a passing Nascent Soul cultivator from the Immortal Alliance, so the formation did not achieve its full effect.

It also allowed a group of lucky people, including Lu Chen, to survive.

Although the formation was destroyed midway, more than 100,000 people in the formation were actually used as sacrifices.

Therefore, the evil sect of the Black Lotus Sect finally got what they wanted from the ancient being, the Great Black Buddha Mother.

But it was also because the Nascent Soul cultivator who suddenly appeared at that time was too powerful.

As a result, the several Black Lotus Sect demons who were in charge of the formation had no time to take the gift away, and could only let it disappear into the ruins in the south of the city.

This is also one of the key reasons why the southern suburbs of the city have not yet been restored and rebuilt after ten years.

After all, over the past ten years, the Immortal Alliance has sent many people to turn the ruins in the south of the city upside down, trying to find that thing.

Yu Tianqi is one of them.

But to this day, no one, including Yu Tianqi, has found the mysterious gift that was left in the ruins in the south of the city.

But after so many years of investigation, the Immortal Alliance has basically confirmed one thing.

That was the mysterious gift that was lost that year. It was either secretly taken away by the Black Lotus followers, or it fell into the hands of some lucky person in the formation at that time.

Because if that thing was really buried in the ruins in the south of the city, there is no reason why a large number of Immortal Alliance monks could not find it after searching for ten years.

However, after a detailed investigation of the more than 5,000 survivors in the formation, the Immortal Alliance finally gave up the idea of ​​continuing the investigation.

Because they didn't find anything unusual in the survivors of that year.

But with the reappearance of the Black Lotus Sect, Yu Tianqi felt that perhaps that thing was hidden somewhere in Luo City, or on someone.

Otherwise, there would be no reason for these Black Lotus guys to be obsessed with Luocheng.

Therefore, after recalling Lu Chen's identity as a survivor, he asked out of curiosity.

But faced with this question, Lu Chen was really a little embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.

Because if you really want to say it, he is actually quite special.

Because it was during that great battle... that he traveled to this world.

But the matter of time travel was a secret that Lu Chen would rather take to his grave than tell, so he would certainly not tell it to Yu Tian.

So when faced with Yu Tianqi's question, Lu Chen gave a similar answer as he did back then.

"I'm sorry Uncle Tian, ​​I was too young back then, and the whole thing was over when I woke up, so I really can't remember too many special circumstances."

Yu Tianqi was not surprised by this answer and said with a smile: "It's okay, Xiao Lu, I just asked casually, you don't have to take it to heart."

"You should practice well recently and don't think too much."

"The current Luo City is no longer the Luo City of ten years ago. Those bastards from the Black Lotus Sect can no longer easily drag Luo City into chaos like they did ten years ago."

"When you have your winter vacation, I, your uncle Tian, ​​will take you and Xiao Ye to a nice place."

"After you come back from there, I won't say that I can make you and Xiao Ye build your foundation 100%, but I will definitely have no problem letting you shine in the Immortal Sect College Entrance Examination."

Hearing this, Lu Chen's curiosity was immediately aroused.

"Uncle Tian, ​​what is so amazing?"

"Hahaha! Keep it a secret for now, and you'll know when the time comes."

"Okay, your uncle Tian has a lot of things to do recently, so let's not talk about it for now. When I'm done, I'll invite you and Xiao Ye to taste the new cooking skills I've learned recently."

"Okay, Uncle Tian, ​​go ahead and get busy."

Lu Chen hung up the phone and secretly analyzed the information contained in these words.

Although Yu Tianqi had never told him what the Black Lotus Cult members were trying to do in Luo City.

But through the information collected during this period, Lu Chen has almost figured out the cause and effect of the matter.

"The thing they're looking for...could it be the mysterious fruit that I accidentally ate when I first traveled through time?"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

You have to know that when Lu Chen first traveled through time, his physical condition was actually not very good.

Not only were his meridians severed, but the spiritual roots in his body were also absorbed by the Nine Heavens Blood Lotus Formation.

It can be said that Lu Chen had one foot in the gate of hell at that time and was not far from death.

But then he inexplicably saw a blood-red fruit falling in front of him.

For some unknown reason, Lu Chen swallowed it directly.

After that, not only did he condense new spiritual roots in his body, but his originally depleted body also improved.

Therefore, from the perspective of outsiders, Lu Chen was lucky enough to survive the formation, but his foundation was damaged.

But only Lu Chen knew that, in every sense, he was already dead at that time.

It was only because his soul was replaced and his body was repaired by the fruit that he miraculously came back to life.

Thinking of this, Lu Chen couldn't help but touch his chest.

Ten years have passed, and Lu Chen no longer cares about what happened back then.

Because he didn't feel that there was anything special about his body.

They only regarded the blood-red fruit of that year as a rare treasure that could bring the dead back to life.

But judging from the recent actions of the Black Lotus Sect and the importance Yu Tianqi attaches to this matter.

Lu Chen suddenly felt that the fruit might be more special than he thought.

But if that were the case, why hadn't he noticed anything unusual about his body over the years?

"Forget it, thinking about these things now is just a waste of time."

"Besides, I've already eaten the fruit, and I've digested it after all these years."

"Even if they are really looking for it, as long as I don't tell you... who would know?"

Thinking of this, Lu Chen immediately stopped thinking about these messy things.

Instead, he focused on his own little game.

After all, it was after so many days of accumulation and the reward he got after completing the copy of Ancient Sword Tomb.

He can also continue to improve the skill level of Qinglian Huatong.

Only by improving his cultivation will he have the confidence to deal with any problems he may encounter.
