At the same time, in a cave somewhere in the city, Song He asked in a deep voice:

"That Qiu Changtian actually went out to gain experience?"

Song He looks like he is in his forties, with a white face and short beard, and he looks quite honest. His realm has now reached the great perfection of the Huafu stage, and his strength ranks second among the chief foundation-building stage disciples of Master Ziwei, second only to the chief Xu Changqing.

Normally, when he was giving lectures, he would sit on the second cushion behind Xu Changqing. But last time, he was forced to give up his seat to Qiu Changtian, who had just formally joined the sect. It was so humiliating that it almost ruined his qi-cultivation skills.

"That's right." Zhao Wencheng replied with a smile, "Senior Brother Song He, after all, he is just a young man at the Qi Refining Stage. Why worry too much?"

This man is Song He's junior fellow apprentice and confidant. He looks younger, less than 30 years old, and the movement of his eyes reveals that he is quite scheming.

"That's right." His junior fellow student Qiu Yuan also echoed, "It will be no more than twenty years before the day when Chief Xu Changqing will achieve his elixir formation and transcend the tribulation."

"That person has a clear mind and extraordinary talent. When Xu Changqing formed his elixir, he had at most completed his Qi training and started his marrow cleansing."

"He was lucky enough to climb the ladder to heaven. He was lucky enough to complete the marrow cleansing, but he could only barely enter the transformation stage."

"How can I compete with you, my brother who has reached the Great Perfection of the Huafu Stage, for the position of the Grand Chief?"

The two men spoke with certainty, and neither was optimistic that Qiu Changtian would be able to jump two levels and reach the great perfection of the Huafu stage before the great chief Xu Changqing succeeded in achieving elixir.

But Song He still frowned, and said after a while:

"I heard that the palace is about to open."

"What palace do you mean?" Zhao Wencheng asked in surprise.

"Could it be the East China Sea Palace?" Qiu Yuan was also surprised.

"Other than that one, which other palace could it be?" Song He sighed softly.

"If it is really the palace in the East China Sea, could it be!" Zhao Wencheng suddenly thought of something and said in surprise, "Master must have planned for him to go to the palace in the East China Sea so that he can gain a lot of true energy and directly skip the Qi Refining Stage, which would have taken at least twenty years of hard work."

"Then we will use the bone-refining and marrow-refining method to help him speed up the marrow cleansing period, transform his qi into true essence, and build a purple palace."

"He jumped two levels in a row, and finally invested resources regardless of the cost. Before Xu Changqing formed his elixir, he rushed to the Great Perfection of the Huafu Level in one go and inherited the position of the Great Chief!"

Qiu Yuan's face also darkened, and he echoed:

"It's very likely! If not, why did Master let him sit on the second cushion that day?"

Song He was silent for a while, then sighed:

"The road is too narrow for two people to walk together, so we can only fight to be the first."

Zhao Wencheng and Qiu Yuan's expressions suddenly became serious.

The position of the chief in the Foundation Establishment Stage was extremely important to their chief senior brother.

The source of the trouble lies with Master Ziwei. This aloof master has many daily affairs to attend to, and he also has to practice. He only lectures to the chief disciples once every ten days, and he would occasionally mutter for various reasons.

As for private answers to your questions, don’t even think about it. Just dream on.

If you encounter any difficult problems during your cultivation, you can only ask the Grand Chief to answer them.

In order to ensure that the Grand Chief has this ability, Master Ziwei would take time out to give him special lessons and answer his questions in person.

"The True Words for Entering the Pure Land of the Nine Heavens" is a true method of the immortals, and is notoriously obscure and difficult to understand. It is no exaggeration to say that "every word contains a pearl, and every sentence contains a secret."

There is a huge difference between the effect of Master Ziwei answering questions in person and the effect of the Grand Chief answering questions on behalf of the Master.

Being able to become the chief means being able to receive guidance from the head of Ziwei Sect, and your understanding and comprehension of the Qingwei Mantra will be more perfect, and the quality of the pills you will create in the future will naturally be higher.

Apart from anything else, the quality of the pills made by the great chiefs of all generations were never lower than the third grade.

As for the disciples who are not the chief disciples, the worst is said to be of the fifth rank, and there are many of the fourth rank in each class.

It can be seen that the interests behind this chief position are so huge that everyone has to fight for it.

Song He said, "Two people cannot walk together, so we can only strive to be the first." The meaning is also very simple:

That means to use any means necessary to snipe Qiu Changtian!

"The Dao Heart is clear, and the consequences are too great." Qiu Yuan said solemnly, "There are countless eyes watching from Kunlun. It is almost impossible to get rid of it secretly without people suspecting us."

"Don't forget, even if he goes out for training, Master will give him the Taiyi Fenguang Sword to protect him!"

"We won't take direct action." Zhao Wencheng narrowed his eyes. "With such a clear mind and such a rare talent, how can we not be envied? Why not kill someone with a borrowed knife..."

"Can you completely clear yourself of any responsibility by killing someone with a borrowed knife?" Song He sighed softly.

"Even if we do nothing, Qiu Changtian choked to death while drinking water, fell to death while walking, or was assassinated by a traitor from the Demon Sect... Considering that whoever benefits is suspicious, won't he be suspected of me?"

The two fellow apprentices were speechless.

"The key is evidence." Song He shook his head. "As long as he dies, all stakeholders will be suspected. It's just a matter of who has more and who has less."

"But we are a reputable and upright sect in Kunlun! We must use evidence when doing things and make people convinced. We can't be like the Demon Sect, who captures people and extracts their souls and reads their minds just because they are suspicious."

He slapped his head for the last time and made up his mind:

“As long as your hands and feet are clean, you can do it!”

Zhao Wencheng and Qiu Yuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly.

Song He is the chief senior brother of their generation. Although the two of them are disciples of Master Ziwei, they are not qualified to go to the scripture listening room. They can only wait for Song He to come back after listening to the scriptures and answer their questions.

The vital interests of both of them have long been tied to Song He.

"In that case, how do you plan to attack, Senior Brother?" Qiu Yuan analyzed cautiously, "Qiu Changtian usually stays at Jinling Cave, and it's rare for him to leave Kunlun for training. He also has the Taiyi Fenguang Sword given to him by the headmaster for protection. Even if he doesn't consider secrecy, there's no chance for him to attack."

"This is easy." Zhao Wencheng suddenly came up with a plan, "In fact, there is a place where Qiu Changtian will definitely go in the future, and it is impossible for him to bring the Taiyi Fenguang Sword with him."

"You mean..." Song He pondered for a moment and then narrowed his eyes.

"The East Sea Palace?"

While the three were discussing strategies in the secret room, Qiu Changtian had already handed the spirit stone to the Kunlun Mirror and asked it to teleport to the location where Ling Yunpo was.

"I didn't expect that after eliminating that evil cultivator, the sect would actually reward me with so many spirit stones." He said with emotion.

"A lot?" Kunlun Jing asked curiously, "Every time I teleport you to reload the game, the spiritual energy consumed is tens of thousands times the amount of these spiritual stones."

"That's different." Qiu Changtian said casually, "You are an innate spiritual treasure. Even your own spiritual energy content is a rich woman-level existence in the magic treasure world. Don't compare yourself with me."
