Unlike Chen Luo's smooth sailing, Fang Jing encountered a big trouble. After he entered the dungeon, he met an old enemy. The teacher who was supposed to be in the Imperial College appeared in the dungeon for some unknown reason. When Fang Jing sneaked in, the teacher was chatting with a death row prisoner in the dungeon.
"Alien Fang Jing, you actually dared to trespass into the prison without permission, why don't you surrender immediately!"
boom!
Fang Jing didn't say a word and just drew his sword.
Two forces exploded in the dungeon, immediately attracting the attention of a large number of powerful people. One of them quickly flew from the palace to the dungeon.
“Damn it!”
Fang Jing cursed inwardly, circulated the sword energy in his hand, and after slashing out with the sword again, he used the force to quickly escape outside.
In this situation, they absolutely cannot go back to meet him, otherwise Chen Luo and Qi Fei will also be dragged into the water by him. The only way is to escape first, and then find a way to sneak back after getting rid of these people.
"Don't even think about escaping!"
The Master flew up, and a black brush appeared in his hand. He was seen sketching in the air quickly, one black word after another, killing Fang Jing who was fleeing. Fang Jing in the air was fighting and fleeing. More and more tree people were besieging him, and the tree people who could fly into the air flew into the sky, forming a net.
"Taiyuan Sword Technique."
The sword energy in Fang Jing's hand reached its limit, and he slashed into the air. The energy of the surrounding heaven and earth was mobilized by him like a tide, and the huge sword energy slashed down vertically, killing all the tree people in front of him. Taking this opportunity, Fang Jing's figure turned into a sword and flew away through the air.
The black shadow chasing from behind raised his hand, and the vital energy of the surrounding heaven and earth surged, and was mobilized by this person to form a huge handprint of capturing the sky, which pressed hard on the vest of the escaping Fang Jing.
A muffled groan.
Fang Jing escaped even faster and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
This is sword escape. Fang Jing and Qi Fei have used this escape method to escape several times.
“You run so fast!”
The man had a deep voice, and he wore a small hat made of black silk on his head, a black brocade robe, and a golden python embroidered on his chest. He had the same color as the Master, and this man was the old eunuch that Fang Jing and Qi Fei feared the most.
"Never mind. It's just a mouse. If it runs away, it will run away. It won't be able to jump around for much longer."
"Is it really okay to just leave it alone?"
"Don't worry."
After the old eunuch and the teacher chatted for a while, they went back. The crowd that had previously besieged Fang Jing gradually dispersed, and the dead people took root again in the palace and the Imperial College, and walked out slowly.
These are the tree people, and as long as their roots remain, they can regenerate infinitely.
Cuihonglou.
Chen Luo's index finger traced out a complex array pattern on a dark stone. The moment the array pattern was completed, a bright black color spread across the entire ground vein, and this layer of color continued to spread like a stream of water.
"My Lord, the old eunuch sent me a message saying that 'Yuan Jun' is coming back."
Yu Yuan stood below and respectfully reported the situation to Chen Luo. Yu Yuan was the middle-aged man who was "resurrected" by Chen Luo. During the time when Chen Luo was transforming the earth veins, Yu Yuan had been outside to get information. With the identity of the owner of Cuihong Building, Yu Yuan got a lot of useful information, and the old eunuch and the teacher did not doubt it.
They were all at the Jindan realm, and they didn't think anyone could kill Yu Yuan without making any noise. In the capital, any fluctuations could not escape the old eunuch's perception. Just like Fang Jing before, as long as he used the power above the Jindan realm, the old eunuch would be able to detect it immediately.
"Yuan Jun?"
Chen Luo stopped what he was doing. He had been transforming the earth veins during this period. Apart from the failed Fang Jing, Qi Fei's progress was very smooth. Chen Luo had already transformed three of the thirteen nodes. The tree people in these three areas were now Chen Luo's subordinates. With the power of these people, he could already steal part of the earth vein spiritual power of the Dongtian Gourd.
"Yuan Jun is the boss of the three of us, and he is suspected to be in the Nascent Soul stage. They usually practice in the sect and dislike the turbid spiritual energy in the lower world."
Yu Yuan told all the information he had learned during this period.
The person behind "Mo Mo" was not the centipede monster as Fang Jing guessed, but a sect. A sect from the upper realm called "Shadow Eater Sect". They came to this world together with the Ten Thousand Monsters Mountain and the Heart Demon Ancestor. Because of the special skills they practiced, no one noticed them at the time.
After the people from the Shadow-Eating Sect descended to the mortal world, they did not have any contact with the cultivators from the Tiannan Region. They were aiming for the Dongtian Gourd from the very beginning.
When Fang Jing and Qi Fei came in, the Shiying Sect had already been working here for thousands of years.
Three hundred years ago, when the Dongtian Gourd entered the late stage of refining, its vitality accidentally leaked out, which attracted the attention of the centipede demon and the Qionghua Sect. Fang Jing and Qi Fei came in at that time, and the centipede demon and the Tailing Patriarch also had contact with the people of the Shadow Eater Sect at that time. No one knows the specific process, but it is known that later, both the centipede demon and the Tailing Patriarch gave up this place, allowing the Shadow Eater Sect to refine the Dongtian Gourd, and sold the Eternal Night Kingdom to them as a bargaining chip.
"When will it arrive?"
Chen Luo looked at the energy flowing under the earth veins and calculated the time required to set up the base points of the formation.
During this period of time, the nodes of the formation must not be discovered, otherwise all previous efforts will be in vain.
"Three days later."
"Three days?"
Chen Luo frowned. The time was too tight. The aura of the earth veins could not even circulate once. With such obvious features, as long as the Yuan Lord was not blind, he would find the problem immediately. The best way was to let the Yuan Lord not come.
Block risks in advance.
"The old eunuch forced the weapon spirit out, and Yuanjun came here to collect the weapon spirit."
"Spirit of the weapon."
Chen Luo's eyes flickered and an idea came to his mind.
However, the premise of all this is that his cultivation level must be further improved. The late stage of Jindan is not enough, and he must at least reach the perfect stage.
“Although it’s a bit wasteful, it’s a method after all.”
In the external brain, sensing Chen Luo's thoughts, Brother Changqing gave a suggestion.
'Thirsty for the earth's energy, take advantage of it to break through.'
Use first!
Chen Luo made up his mind. His eyes fell on the ground veins next to him. He pressed his palms on the big stone, and wisps of earth energy flowed into his palms. The aura in his body continued to increase during this process. The ground veins were more useful than ink.
A large amount of earth energy poured in, and Chen Luo clearly felt the spiritual power in his body rising in an exaggerated manner.
These powers are all accumulated in the cave.
His current method was to dig the foundation of the cave heaven, which was a waste in the eyes of the Nascent Soul cultivators. The best way to use the resources of the cave heaven was to impact the spirit transformation, but at this moment Chen Luo could not care so much. If he didn't use it now, he would be useless when Yuanjun came.
The breath poured in one after another.
The strange phenomenon appeared again around the body. The long river of spiritual power around the body seemed to be connected to a river, and the river surface continued to widen.
The circulating spiritual power became stronger and stronger, and the void meridians around the body also emerged. The two forces inside and outside merged together to form a spiritual power sea like an ocean. From the beginning, it was like nothingness and air, and slowly turned into a sea. The "spiritual power sea" around the golden elixir became more and more obvious.
There was a crisp sound of "click".
The Dan is complete!
The barrier around the long river of spiritual power seemed to be broken, and the spiritual power pouring into the body was no longer restrained and began to expand wildly. The body also felt the changes at this moment. Unlike the previous three small realms, at this moment Chen Luo only felt that there seemed to be two more flames in his body.
The two flames were one up and one down, one cold and one hot.
It circled around the golden elixir again and again, and with each circle, Chen Luo's aura became stronger. The previous golden elixir jade liquid was further purified in this process, changing from jade color to pure white. The golden elixir was suspended above this ocean of spiritual power, like a scorching sun.
"The Heart Demon Art has reached this stage, and it is completely different from the Heart Demon Ancestor's skills."
Chen Luo has the brain of the Heart Demon Ancestor, so he naturally knows the difference between the two. The Heart Demon Art he is practicing now was modified by Brother Changqing, and his foundation is extremely solid.
Three days passed in a flash.
The black and white palace was silent, without a sound. The stiff tree-man palace maids knelt on both sides, and the emperor and empress in the middle also knelt beside them like the servants. They were originally toys made by the old eunuch.
In the huge back garden, there were only five people standing.
The leader was wearing a emerald green robe with a jade pendant hanging from his waist. He held a paper fan in one hand and played with a black jade bead in the other.
"Yes, I like this gift very much. After this time, I will nominate you in the sect and promote you to become formal disciples."
The young man put away the jade beads and said something to the three people.
The old eunuch and the teacher showed surprise when they heard the young man's answer. Yu Yuan, who had lost his memory and didn't understand the whole story, was also surprised.
"No matter how many times I come to this kind of place, it always feels dirty."
The woman next to the young man looked at the fine wine and spiritual fruits beside him with disdain. In a place like the cave that was soaked in ink, the old eunuch and his three companions actually managed to prepare so many normal spiritual fruits.
These spiritual fruits are brightly colored, which is out of tune with this black and white world.
"This world was once glorious. Before the death of the Immortal Emperor Changqing, this place was the True Immortal Realm that everyone longed for."
The young man knew a lot of secrets, and also knew the purpose of why the sect members had gone through so much trouble to come to this place.
Evergreen Immortal Emperor.
Even in today's world of immortal cultivation, the name of the Immortal Emperor Changqing is still well-known. In the upper realm, countless people are searching for the inheritance of the Immortal Emperor Changqing. Any secrets related to the Immortal Emperor Changqing can be sold at a sky-high price in the upper realm. They, the Shadow Eater Sect, also spent a lot of money to buy this clue about the Cave Heaven Gourd.
"What does the past have to do with the present? Go and collect the weapon spirit quickly. I still have to go back to make the elixir."
The woman stood up impatiently. She did not even touch the spiritual fruit that the old eunuch and the other two had carefully prepared. Her eyes were full of disgust.
"Then let's go."
The young man also stood up.
Just as he was about to leave, the young man's expression froze and he glanced sideways towards the side hall next to him.
"Liu Jin, where is the weapon spirit you mentioned before?"
"In the Taiji Hall, I set up a formation outside." The old eunuch didn't know the reason, but still hurriedly responded.
"Your formation level is not good enough, the prey has escaped."
Hearing the sound, several people subconsciously turned their heads to look.
In the garden pond next to it, a figure floated out at some point. This figure looked about the size of a three-year-old child, with red lips and white teeth, a small tuft of hair on his head, and a red bellyband on his chest, just like the dolls in the New Year pictures. (End of this chapter)
