The 108 Peaks Project was the top secret of the Qionghua Sect, so Chen Luo naturally couldn't tell anyone about it. He didn't stop when he passed by Chixia Peak. His current goal was the Shenhu Xianmen in the Seven Kingdoms area. He would first go back to digest the accumulation of the sea area before returning to the Qionghua Sect. The level of trouble there was too high, and going back now would not be able to help, but would put himself in danger.
He flew over Chixia Peak with a few people, and finally rented a regional teleportation array in a nearby island market, and successfully returned to the Seven Kingdoms area.
The regional teleportation array is not a particularly difficult array. There are also third-order short-distance teleportation arrays. The difficulty lies in the materials for the layout. It requires something called void stone, which Chen Luo has never seen in his cultivation. Most of the teleportation arrays preserved in the cultivation world are left by predecessors. Many people speculate that the resource of 'void stone' has been consumed by predecessors.
After entering the Seven Kingdoms area, the group slowed down. Chen Luo found a market town and took a few people on a cross-domain flying boat.
Unlike the sea, the spiritual energy in the Seven Kingdoms region is very uniform. Unlike the sea, where the water and wind spiritual veins are relatively active, it is difficult for cultivators with other spiritual root attributes to succeed there.
"Senior, aren't we going back to Qionghua Sect?"
Blood Knife couldn't help but say that he had already told Chen Luo his name on the way, and this person was really called Blood Knife. He had long since abandoned his real name, but his iconic magical power, the Blood Knife, was well-known, so he changed his name accordingly.
Those who practice robbery cultivation want to have a resounding reputation.
Chen Luo also studied his technique, and several compatible external brains have already started practicing it. The progress has surpassed the current level of Blood Knife Tribulation Cultivator, and it might be of great use in the future.
"Let's go somewhere first."
Since he was going to accept these people, Chen Luo did not hide anything from them and simply explained his relationship with the Shenhu Xianmen.
After hearing this, the few people did not ask any more questions.
It's nothing more than changing their habitat. For them, as long as they can hold on to their thighs, it doesn't matter where they stay. During this period, the three of them asked Chen Luo a lot of questions about cultivation. They found that this senior really knew everything. No matter what they asked, this person could answer it, and he understood it more clearly than them. It felt like he had practiced similar skills for a lifetime. Madam Hong felt the strongest. She found that this person even dabbled in the skills of the demon race, and his understanding of many demon race skills was more detailed than that of the Black Horn King.
It was not unfair at all that King Black Horn lost to him.
As the three of them were on their way.
The Immortal Gate of Shenhu Lake.
A few months ago, the leader of Shenhu Xianmen, Wuwei Zhenren, announced that he would go into seclusion. A deputy leader came to the sect, a Jindan ancestor that no one had ever seen. This person claimed to be Wuwei Zhenren's junior brother, named "Yu Lian", and was responsible for managing the sect during his "senior brother's" seclusion.
No one in the sect cared about this change, and it was not their turn to express their opinions on the affairs of the Jindan cultivators.
But as time went on, everyone gradually felt something was wrong. In a few months, a large number of disciples appeared in Shenhu Xianmen. The disciples of Wuwei Zhenren, such as Huang Ying and Ding Xiaoxia, were pushed to the edge of power. Master Bai Su and several peak masters also disappeared. Some people were even exiled to the edge of the country to do the kind of bitter and cold tasks that took a long time.
Such a change naturally attracted the attention of some people. Many people began to doubt whether Master Wuwei was really in seclusion, and whether this Patriarch Yulian was the sect master's junior brother.
"The Sect Master is at a critical juncture in his attempt to break through the barrier, so it is not convenient for him to see guests for the time being."
The sect leader was practicing outside the room.
Huang Ying looked at the foundation-building cultivator in front of her, and a trace of gloom flashed in her eyes. This was the third time she came to see the sect master this month, and each time the door was closed and she didn't see him. The most important thing was that this disciple guarding the gate was someone she had never seen before.
The foundation-building cultivators are still very conspicuous in the Shenhu Immortal Gate. In the past, they could be appointed as the peak masters.
"When can I leave? I have something important to report."
"I don't know about that. The sect leader is a Jindan Zhenren, and he can live for a thousand years. It is normal for him to spend more than ten years in seclusion." The foundation-building cultivator guarding the gate replied with a cold face.
"If you really have an urgent matter, you can tell me and I will pass it on to the acting sect leader. Master Yu Lian is the sect leader's junior fellow apprentice. The sect leader has entrusted all the sect's affairs to him to manage."
It’s Master Yu Lian again.
Huang Ying did not ask any more questions. Things in the Immortal Sect had been getting weirder and weirder recently. This junior brother who suddenly appeared out of nowhere issued many strange orders, and the one that puzzled Huang Ying the most was the insect cultivation.
True Man Yu Lian designated all the peaks except the main peak as "Insect Peaks" and raised a large number of poisonous insects on them. Even on the main peak, half of the disciples began to practice insect control, and all the new disciples were insect cultivators. If this continued, Shenhu Xianmen might be reduced to an insect cultivation sect.
"Recently, all the resources in the sect have been taken away by the Insect Control Peak. We disciples of the Enlightenment Peak have not received any spirit stones for three months, and the contribution points in the sect cannot be exchanged for resources. I would like to ask the sect master if it is possible to let the Insect Peak release some resources so as not to affect the normal practice of other fellow disciples."
"I know about your situation. I will report it to Master Yu Lian truthfully."
The Foundation Establishment Monk guarding the gate said perfunctorily with an expressionless face, and then stopped talking.
Huang Ying didn't say anything more when she saw this, but left the main hall worriedly. The monk guarding the gate looked at her leaving, his eyes turned khaki, and a faint demonic aura emanated from him.
"Not killing her?"
"This person cannot be killed. Among the conditions that Wuwei promised to the National Master, there are several names that we cannot touch no matter what. This woman is one of them." A voice sounded out of nowhere. It was the acting sect leader Yu Lian Zhenren. This Jindan ancestor had been here for a long time, but Huang Ying did not find him.
"trouble."
"Just give her a little warning, so she can behave herself."
A trace of impatience flashed across the face of the gatekeeper Zhuji. Not only was this shabby place barren, but even if he used some resources, there would be people coming here every day to talk nonsense. If it weren't for the order from the state teacher, he would have devoured all the people in this sect long ago.
A few days later.
The huge flying boat cut through the sky.
Chen Luo, exhausted, returned to the Shenhu Immortal Gate with four people.
The flying boat stopped at the market town at the foot of the mountain.
Several people flew down from above. The Immortal Gate was still bustling. The market at the foot of the mountain was more prosperous than before, and its scale had expanded several times. As the only immortal sect preserved in the Seven Kingdoms area, the Shenhu Immortal Gate brought together all the resources of the Seven Kingdoms, which also meant that the scattered cultivators in this land could only come here.
To practice and build a foundation, every step is inseparable from the Shenhu Xianmen.
"Is this the Shenhu Xianmen? It is indeed very large."
Madam Hong, Blood Knife and the other two looked around curiously. It was indeed more prosperous than the island controlled by the Black Horn King. There were countless Qi Refining Realm cultivators. Ao Ye was also looking around. He had never been to the inland and it was the first time he saw such a large market. He was inevitably curious.
"It's just that people are too weak."
Madam Red commented.
She had just used her spiritual sense to observe and found that there were no powerful cultivators in this place. Not to mention those who had established their foundation, there were very few even in the middle stage of Qi Refining. Those in the late stage of Qi Refining and those who had reached the perfection of Qi Refining were even rarer. Any one who appeared would attract awe-inspiring glances from the people around.
Chen Luo was walking in the front. He originally planned to fly back to the mountain directly, but when he was about to get off the flying boat, he saw a familiar figure in the market, it was his junior sister Huang Ying. He found something interesting on Huang Ying, and it was this thing that changed his mind.
'Parasitic insects.'
In the external brain, Wang Mingde's brain reminded Chen Luo.
“Senior Brother!”
Huang Ying over there also discovered Chen Luo. She was happy at first, then showed a worried expression, and then turned into expressionless indifference.
"Why did you come back? You have been expelled from the sect by our master."
Chen Luo's eyes fluctuated, and Madam Hong and others who followed him were also stunned.
'Who is this woman? How dare she speak to a senior like that?'
Chen Luo walked forward and suddenly stretched out his hand to pinch Huang Ying's hair. A wisp of spiritual power wrapped around his fingers, twisting out a struggling white centipede.
"This bug can't move! Brother, please leave!"
Seeing this scene, Huang Ying's face changed drastically.
This poisonous insect was left on her by Master Yu Lian. Once it was taken away, the other party would immediately notice it. The enemy who could take Master Wu Wei away silently must not be an ordinary strong man. Judging from the changes in Shenhu Xianmen during this period of time, the other party must be an extremely terrifying force.
If there really was a possibility of resistance, Master Wuwei would not disappear for no reason.
"Something happened on the mountain? Where's Master?"
Chen Luo caught the bug in his hand, but did not crush it to death. Under his control, the soul-parasitic insect came out from his sleeves and easily controlled the little bug.
A layer of light grey power emerged around Chen Luo, blocking the prying eyes of other people around the market. Regardless of whether there was tracking or not, it was always better to be cautious, which was why he did not directly crush the little white centipede to death.
"Master has disappeared. Now Master's junior fellow Master Yu Lian is in charge of the mountain."
"Junior brother? Master can't have a junior brother."
Chen Luo felt as if he had heard a joke. He knew the origin of Wuwei Zhenren very well. Before coming to the Seven Kingdoms, Wuwei Zhenren was a cultivator from the evil cultivation land, and his master was the remains of the Heart Demon Ancestor. It was impossible for such a person to have other disciples. The so-called "junior brother" was obviously an imposter.
"How are the others on the mountain?"
"In recent months, there have been many new disciples on the mountain. They seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, and they are all insect cultivators. All the resources in the sect have been divided up by them. Most of us original disciples have been sent out, and the remaining ones have been pushed to the margins."
Huang Ying told Chen Luo in brief words what happened on the mountain.
"Seeking immortality?"
Chen Luo suddenly thought of his senior brother Du De’s son. When someone entrusts someone to him, he must not kill him.
"He was taken away by Uncle Chengfeng. Uncle Chengfeng also accepted a mission from the sect some time ago." Huang Ying slowed down her tone when talking about this.
Even Xianhe Chengfeng felt something was wrong. It seemed that something serious had really happened in the sect. She was the last one to know about it. (End of this chapter)
