Chapter 104 Trend
"Where is that Master Su now?"
What Chen Luo was concerned about was the subsequent impact. The core contradiction of this matter originated from Su Tianyao, and the third-level formation master inheritance in his hand was the fuse.
“It has disappeared.”
Huang Ying had a worried look on her face.
If such a big thing is not controlled well, it is very likely to spread to the entire sect. This is not groundless worry, but there are already signs of this.
"Missing?"
Chen Luo frowned, feeling something was wrong.
"Why is it that everyone knows about this even though the person is missing? Is there no one in the sect to deal with it?"
"It can't be suppressed! The elder of Xingdou Peak died in the secret realm, and the elder Ke, the head of the Beast Control Peak who went to support him, also disappeared. Someone saw the poisonous insects of the Nine Poison Valley and the iron corpses of the Corpse Raising Sect outside the secret realm."
After just two brief messages, Chen Luo heard the undercurrent behind it.
This matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface, there are more disputes behind it. Three major foundation-building forces, one died and two were missing. If there was no third-party force intervening behind the scenes, it would never have come to this.
Huang Ying glanced around, then leaned close to Chen Luo's ear and spoke in a low voice.
"The Nine Poison Valley and the Corpse-Raising Sect have formed an alliance. The elder of Xingdou Peak who died in the secret realm was killed by them. Elder Ke and Su Tianyao of the Beast Taming Peak have defected to the enemy. The real situation is ten times more dangerous than what is said outside."
"Where did you hear this news?"
Chen Luo looked at Huang Ying, somewhat curious about where she heard the news from.
If the situation is really like this, then he has to consider a way out.
By the way, while you are running, see if you have a chance to pick up two useful brains, preferably from a foundation-building cultivator, which are more complete.
"These are what Senior Sister Shen told me. She went down the mountain last night."
Huang Ying revealed the source of the news.
Chen Luo then remembered that Huang Ying's biggest supporter was Senior Sister Shen. She made her first fortune by selling talismans for Senior Sister Shen. When Chen Luo first learned to make talismans, the copy he copied was the one Huang Ying borrowed from Senior Sister Shen.
If Huang Ying didn't lie to him, then the news was most likely true.
Senior Sister Shen was an inner disciple of Wudao Peak and was also proficient in talismans. Her status was completely different from theirs. The information she obtained was naturally more accurate than theirs. Now that the other party had already fled in advance, it was clear that the situation was worse than they saw.
"The dragons in the Divine Lake Formation were all trained by Elder Ke himself. Now that he has joined the two sects, he will definitely help them break the formation. Without the protection of the formation, the scale of the war cannot be controlled, and even the main peak may be lost."
The betrayal of the two great foundation-building monks put the Shenhu Immortal Sect in an absolute disadvantage.
Chen Luo remembered the time when he first joined the Shenhu Immortal Sect and saw the dragon chasing the inter-domain flying boat in the lake.
I was quite shocked at that time, and it was also at that time that I heard of Elder Ke’s name.
"Brother, follow me down the mountain."
Huang Ying said solemnly.
She had been waiting here for a long time, just to pull Chen Luo along. From the time he entered the sect to now, she had watched Chen Luo grow step by step to his current state. In Huang Ying's opinion, Chen Luo's potential was definitely not inferior to that of a person with a natural spiritual root. He had a great chance of successfully building a foundation in the future. A future foundation-building cultivator was worth her risk.
"Quite a few people have applied for the mission to go down the mountain. Brother, you should apply for one as well. Let's go back to our hometown in Sheguo together. Guarding the sect does not count as defection." Huang Ying told her plan.
The two of them have only been disciples for a year and are not even inner disciples. There is absolutely no need for them to wade into this muddy water with the sect.
"The sect won't let you go."
Chen Luo shook his head.
It’s not that he is pedantic, but the people at the top of the sect will simply not agree.
Shenhu Xianmen has trained so many disciples, it is impossible to let them go when the war is about to come. Especially the inner disciples, the Senior Sister Shen mentioned by Huang Ying probably has some connections, so she can take advantage of the loopholes, but it is hard to say about the rest of the people.
As the situation changes, the sect might even cancel its "garrison mission", abandon its external forces, and shrink its front line across the board.
One more thing.
Until now, the leader of the Shenhu Immortal Sect has not made any move.
As long as that person is still there, the Immortal Sect will not perish.
Wars in the world of immortal cultivation are different from wars in the secular world. Top-level combat power is the key to victory or defeat. The reason why Shenhu Xianmen has been able to stand for so many years is that there has never been a shortage of Jindan cultivators in the sect. As long as the Jindan ancestors are still there, the sect will not perish.
"Brother, are you thinking about the Sect Master?"
Huang Ying seemed to know what Chen Luo was thinking.
What Chen Luo could think of, she had naturally thought of long ago. It can be said that the entire Shenhu Xianmen, from top to bottom, had the same idea.
"The sect master's time is coming soon. He hasn't shown up in more than 60 years. This news was also told to me by Senior Sister Shen."
Huang Ying said softly.
Something's wrong with the clan leader? Chen Luo suddenly understood.
No wonder the temptations from the Nine Poison Valley and the Corpse Raising Sect became more and more obvious. The last time he was on a joint mission, he encountered temptations from the two sects. He didn't know how the upper echelons solved it that time, but it was obvious that the two sects felt weak, which led to this action.
Huang Ying's news made Chen Luo determined to leave the sect.
Sect-level wars were still too dangerous for him. If he was caught up in the aftermath of a high-level cultivator's battle, he might die.
"I see."
Chen Luo took a deep breath and nodded in response.
"I will leave tonight. I have already accepted the mission to garrison in Lizong. My mission is to assist Senior Sister Shen. If you fail to get the mission, please come to Lanyu Tower to find me. I will add your name to the list and we will leave together." Huang Ying packed up her stall and stood up. She came here just to wait for Chen Luo.
Now that the news has been announced, she has to prepare for her departure.
After leaving the Transmission Platform, Chen Luo went to the main hall where his master, Wuwei Zhenren, practiced.
If there is anyone on Wudao Peak who can grasp the most accurate information, it must be the immortal cultivator Wuwei who has established his foundation.
"Huh? I didn't expect that Junior Brother's cultivation has made another breakthrough. This is really cause for celebration."
When he arrived at the main hall, Chen Luo met someone he had never expected. Bai Su, the first disciple of Wudao Peak! This woman was the same as the last time he saw her. She was still dressed in white, and the silver bell on her arm rang softly, emitting a pleasant sound.
"Meet Senior Sister Bai Su."
Chen Luo took a step back.
This woman is dangerous.
He had seen it the last time he came here with Fang Shan. At that time, they thought that this senior sister came back to prepare for foundation building, but now it seems that there should be other things.
The other person's aura was still that of perfect Qi training.
Half a year has passed, and I don’t know whether she failed to build her foundation or was waiting for something.
"Junior brother seems to be afraid of me?"
Bai Su suddenly walked up to Chen Luo and whispered something in his ear.
The hot air made his ears itchy, his pupils shrank slightly, and he subconsciously took a step back.
He didn't see clearly how the woman came over.
"Go in, I hope I can meet you again in the future."
Bai Su chuckled, and her figure flew away like the breeze. A white veil floated past her eyes, and when the veil disappeared, the figure also disappeared.
Looking at the direction where Bai Su disappeared, Chen Luo paused for a moment.
This senior sister seemed to be very interested in him.
"I don't care what her purpose is, as long as she doesn't provoke me."
Open the door.
Chen Luo looked towards the inner hall.
Master Wuwei Zhenren was still sitting in the hall, and the scene was exactly the same as the one he saw when he first went up the mountain. The difference was that this time, more than half of the paintings on the walls were gone, with only a few scattered paintings hanging on the walls. Wuwei Zhenren did not practice, but sat there reading a book.
"Master."
Chen Luo bowed.
Taoist Wuwei put down the book in his hand and looked Chen Luo up and down.
When he saw Chen Luo's strength at the ninth level of Qi Refining, even a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He reached the ninth level of Qi training in just one year. This speed of practice has already reached the level of heavenly spiritual roots.
'What a pity.'
A trace of regret flashed across Master Wuwei's eyes.
"I remember your name is Chen Luo?"
"yes."
"Do you also want to take on the garrison mission down the mountain?"
Taoist Wuwei put the book aside and looked at Chen Luo, as if he was examining him.
Chen Luo didn't expect that Master Wuwei would be so direct, but since the other party asked so, he took the opportunity to ask for some real information.
"Disciple, listen."
“It’s all true.”
Master Wuwei interrupted Chen Luo's question.
"The rumors outside are all true. Su Tianyao and Ke Jiushe betrayed the sect. I can also tell you that the masters of Tianming Peak and Tianlu Peak have already left the sect. It's hard to say how many of the remaining seven of us are loyal to the sect."
Chen Luo was stunned after hearing this.
He didn't expect the situation of Shenhu Xianmen to have reached this point. No wonder Huang Ying's Senior Sister Shen ran away without saying a word.
Zhenren Wuwei was very open and frank. He did not hide anything and directly told Chen Luo the actual situation of the sect.
"When the ancestor founded the sect, he emphasized profit first, and everything in the sect could be measured in spirit stones. This system allowed Shenhu Xianmen to quickly accumulate resources and successfully rise from a weak position, but it also left a huge hidden danger."
"We don't have any feelings for the sect. When the sect is strong, we gather around it to enjoy its resources. If the sect declines, we will not die with it."
"Everything has its pros and cons, it all depends on your choice."
After saying this, Master Wuwei waved his hand.
He saw a scroll on the wall next to him automatically roll up and fall into his hands.
"I'm not talking to you about this just to chat, but because I want to ask you for a favor."
"Teacher, please tell me. As long as I can do it, I will not refuse."
Chen Luo hurriedly replied that he didn't know what the Immortal Wuwei, the Foundation Establishment Cultivator, wanted to ask of him, a Qi Refining disciple.
