Chapter 265: The Chess Player



"Whoosh"

When Qin Lin returned disappointed, the formation on Yiyuan Peak dissipated, and a golden rainbow fell down and landed at his feet.

His face lit up with joy, and he stepped on the golden rainbow and appeared in front of the Patriarch's Hall. Looking inside, he saw an unfathomable figure with his back to him. His aura seemed to be in harmony with the tablets of the ancestors, representing the highest will of the Guangxiu Immortal Sect.

“Grandmaster…”

Qin Lin bowed respectfully and felt more and more that this ancestor had the demeanor of a national master. His attitude was indifferent, and everything was at his heart, without any confusion.

"Is the training going well?"

Mr. Chen turned around, revealing a gentle face, and treated Qin Lin the same way he did Chang An and Zhou Xian, obviously approving of him.

This impoverished prince was indeed a rough diamond, with a firm will, good talent, and a close relationship with Chen Ergou. He eventually handed over Chen Ergou's inheritance, hoping that he would thrive and become a powerful figure.

"It went smoothly. I just encountered one problem that still needs the Grandmaster's decision."

Qin Lin nodded, then paused, and expressed his doubts. Everything was too coincidental.

"Are you saying someone set you up?"

Mr. Chen said calmly.

"I was a little skeptical at first, but all the way back to the mountain gate, everything was calm."

Qin Lin had this idea, but now he is not sure. For someone who can hide it from a genius and calculate everything, it seems that there is no need to hide it.

"Is it possible that you are just a trigger?"

Mr. Chen thought of the conversation he had with Taoist Chongzun of the Chiling Immortal Sect after the battle at Pengshan Lake ten years ago. It was really meaningful.

"Initiator? I am not bragging, but I am one of the top geniuses in the Immortal Sect, and I have the potential to achieve the Golden Elixir. If someone is plotting and still feels that it is not enough, then they want to plot against a powerful elder, or the headmaster, or..."

Qin Lin was suspicious at first, but after analyzing it layer by layer, a look of horror appeared on his face. Those people were indeed plotting against him, but their ultimate target was Chen Sheng.

The younger ones are beaten, and the older ones are coming. Taking this as a lead, the ancestor will most likely come and fall into danger.

"It's okay. I'm the pillar of the family and I won't fall down."

Chen Sheng had a calm aura. Even though he knew that a Jindan Zhenren had attacked him, he remained calm.

He has passed the period of weakness. Although he does not have the fighting power to dominate everyone, he is still qualified to be a free and easy person.

Moreover, the Guangxiu Immortal Sect is full of traces of his cultivation up to now, and many of his old friends are sleeping there. How can he abandon and let go?

"What should the disciple do then? Avoid danger and throw away the secret key of Lonely Mountain?"

Qin Lin realized the seriousness of the matter. He was in a dilemma as to whether to keep the little bell or throw it away.

Chen Sheng took it away and said calmly, "You stay in seclusion for a few days, and I will take care of it."

Since there are like-minded people who want to fight with him, then he will meet them and fight with them.

Langya Immortal Sect.

Taoist Xuan Jing was full of natural spirit. He sat upright on a cushion, with no trace of smoke or dust around him, looking like a hermit who had achieved immortality.

However, the thought in his eyes never stopped. He was always brooding over something and always wanted to save his face.

Now the opportunity has come.

"That old Taoist Chongming must have passed away."

Taoist Xuanjing calculated that Taoist Chongming had passed away. This was not a particularly secret matter. The reason for waiting for ten years was to allow the possibility to be thoroughly confirmed.

It's not that no one has noticed what Taoist Chongming is thinking as he has been sitting in silence at the gate of the Chiling Immortal Sect for a month. However, no one wants to provoke a Jindan Zhenren who is almost about to die.

Ten years is already the limit.

"Oath? I was forced to make it, but times are different now."

There is only one Jindan Zhenren in charge of the Guangxiu Immortal Sect now, and his dormant heart has become active again.

On that day, Taoist Chongming came to the door with the Four Guangxiu Flags, the Lisheng Bell, and the Wudao Jiehui. Chen Sheng also came together and formed an alliance by coercion.

Later, the two sects attacked Zi Xi Xian Zong, but this caused him and Taoist Yu Cheng to become enemies. He was injured but not killed, which became a major hidden danger.

Having been tricked, he desperately wanted to get back at his enemies, and now he finally had the chance.

"The oath is useful, but we need to make Mr. Chen realize the situation."

After much thought, Taoist Xuan Jing restrained himself as he did not want to break the alliance. Although he was coerced, at the critical moment, having such a relationship might be able to resolve the crisis.

After all, it is the Langya Immortal Sect, and there is no second Jindan Zhenren. Although he has cultivated it with all his strength, it takes time to plant a towering tree.

All the major immortal sects have this kind of plan to a greater or lesser extent, but some have not yet implemented it, while others have already taken action.

At this time, Mr. Chen went out.

He had changed a little, practicing the Taixuan Breath-Resting Technique, suppressing his realm to the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. He wore a black robe, covering himself tightly, and had a small bell on his waist. The bell rang melodiously with every step he took, unable to conceal his graceful demeanor.

In a secret place, one or two inconspicuous monks looked puzzled at first, then saw the secret key of Gushan and locked the target at once, but did not take any action, only used the communication jade token to pass the message.

All of these fell into Chen Sheng's eyes.

"What on earth is set up in the secret realm of Lonely Mountain, which takes so much manpower and material resources?"

Mr. Chen ignored him and walked on the road, thinking about the secret realm of Gushan. He had no clue, but also no anxiety. He had the ability to control the situation.

He did not use any escape techniques, but just kept on going. Sometimes when he came across a city, he would go in to rest, and he would also stroll around in some immortal cultivation markets. Sometimes when he saw something he liked, he would discuss it with the vendors, and then gladly accept it.

There were some twists and turns in the tranquility. He showed no mercy to those short-sighted thieves who wanted to kill people and steal treasures.

After about half a month, he finally came to a beautiful mountain. It had no spiritual charm, but there were traces of a village nearby, which made it look like a paradise on earth.

"Xu Chongshan, the secret place of Lonely Mountain."

Chen Sheng murmured to himself, and without further delay, he took off the small bell from his waist and threw it casually into the air.

“Buzz…”

The little bell showed its power, and its entire body was sparkling with a bright luster, without any trace of the mundane. It pulled the hidden secret realm of Lonely Mountain out bit by bit from the depths of the void.

After two or three breaths, the secret realm of Gushan opened, and a portal stood in the sky, deep and dark, like a gaping hole.

"There is a slight smell of danger, but it is very faint."

Chen Sheng's energy and spirit were so strong that he could feel the dangerous atmosphere inside even through the door. It was very faint, but to Qin Lin, it was extremely dangerous.

"Whoosh"

He took a step forward and completely entered the Secret Realm of Lonely Mountain. With a quick glance, he saw only a desolate land without any blessing or fortune. It was more of a forbidden area than a secret realm of opportunity.

“Boom…”

Chen Sheng's toes had just touched the ground when murderous intent rose. Fiery lines spread across the earth, like the outline of an Eight Diagrams Furnace or a Flaming Mountain.

A raging divine fire ignited, sweeping across the area. All that was seen was red. The rocks were melting rapidly, flowing with the luster of gilded magma.

There was a raging fire in Chen Sheng's eyes. He knew that this place was dangerous and he didn't want the person who set up this place to be so cruel. Without saying a word, he was ready to eliminate the hidden danger.

His heart was calm, his body was flowing with the luster of colored glass, and he took a step forward, like a dragon turning over, the entire land was collapsing, the array patterns were erased, and the raging divine fire gradually died out.

"boom"

The earth was charred and in ruins.

The divine fire was extinguished, but something unexpected happened. From the cracked surface, streams of black evil spirit seeped out. It was as cold as a knife and had the ability to freeze the blood and consume the body.

These knife blades seemed to have spirits. They whistled out and formed a pair of shackles that fell towards Chen Sheng.

“Crack!”

The coldness comes to the body, and the knife energy cuts the bones.

Chen Sheng only felt an discomfort, as if a furnace was running inside his body, his blood was like fire, and his whole body burst out with terrifying power. With a slight shake, the knife shackles were covered with cracks and shattered immediately.

"Whoosh"

At the same time, dozens of mountains away, there was a large bronze bow that was pulled to perfection. The bow body was suddenly covered with cracks, but it was a disposable weapon.

The roaring of heaven and earth condensed into a huge green arrow, which broke through the air like thunder and lightning, like a world-destroying spear, with unparalleled power.

“Crack!”

Chen Sheng revived the body of Rixi Shenzhao, and his flesh and blood turned into a treasure. He actually blocked the huge blue arrow head-on, but he was unharmed, and the arrow broke into pieces inch by inch, without causing any injury.

After this time, no more killing moves were launched.

And when everything was quiet, dozens of figures around could no longer be obscured and became clear. There were young people and old practitioners. The only thing they had in common was that they all had a strong aura and were all rare masters in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

"Is this person Qin Lin? Even if he is a genius, he shouldn't be so outrageous."

Their hearts were filled with shock. There were three killing moves, all of which were powerful enough to shake the world, but they just couldn't kill Qin Lin.

This kind of invincible power has already exceeded the limits of genius.

"Qin Lin!"

Someone shouted, wanting to confirm something. The man's figure was shrouded in a black robe, but a young man's figure could be vaguely seen. He came with the secret key of Gushan, so it should be Qin Lin.

However, this was not right. Even though Qin Lin was a genius of his generation, he could not deal with three killing moves so easily.

“Boom…”

Chen Sheng raised his head slightly, and two divine lights bloomed from under his hood. The aura he generated was not strong or powerful, but the entire Solitary Mountain Secret Realm was filled with howling winds and clouds.

He didn't make many movements. He just pushed forward with one hand, and the inspiration in the void suddenly became turbulent, like a boiling sea, with waves of terrifying power flooding in all directions.

"puff……"

As the might of heaven came, the faces of the strong men changed drastically. They cast magic, trying to break up the overwhelming force that was crushing them, but they were powerless and fell down one after another like scarecrows.

"Who are you?"

The old man with the highest magical power among the ten people had a pale face, his beard was bloody, he opened a pair of frightened eyes, and let out a fierce roar.

This person is definitely not Qin Lin.

This is not the power that the younger generation can possess. When they set up a trap, what they caught was not a young unicorn, but a real dragon that had crossed the Dragon Gate.

"Guangxiu Immortal Sect, Chen Sheng."

Mr. Chen lowered his hood, revealing a young face. It seemed that time had not left any trace on it, but those dark eyes hid too many things.

"The Golden Core Ancestor of the Guangxiu Immortal Sect."

After learning the truth, he felt dizzy, like a mindless ant, and murmured, "This is not right..."

He was so frightened that he ran to the cliff, jumped off, and fell to his death at the foot of the mountain.

Everything is beyond the scope.

They were only responsible for attacking and killing Qin Lin. Although they would have some intersections with the Guangxiu Immortal Sect, at most they would be hunted down. Once Chen Sheng arrived, all problems would be over.

From the beginning to the end, Chen Sheng paid no attention to the people lying on the ground. Instead, he showed his true face, in a gray robe and plain face, and said frankly, "Who are you, Taoist friend? I invite you wholeheartedly."

The clear and melodious sound was deafening, sweeping across the mountain peaks, dispersing the clouds, and was extremely majestic.

"You figured it out."

An old voice sounded.

This was an old man, a very old man, with an aura of decay about him. He was about to die, but very dangerous. His eyes were dull on his honest and sorrowful face, but sometimes the light that flashed across them was extremely sharp.

"Jiuxiao Immortal Sect, Jia Sidao."

Mr. Chen said a name for no reason.

"Hmm? It seems like you know everything."

Jia Sidao narrowed his eyes slightly, and all his inconspicuous characteristics disappeared. He looked like an old dragon emerging from a cold pond, extremely terrifying.

His mind raced as he pondered Mr. Chen's trump card and possible accidents.

"Sixty years ago, during the battle at Pengshan Lake, Taoist Chongzun of the Chiling Immortal Sect asked me to be on guard against you."

Mr. Chen had no psychological burden and sold out Taoist Chongzun casually. Anyway, this old fox had ulterior motives and it would be best if he died.

"I see."

Jia Sidao was relieved. What he feared most was that all the means would be carried out under Chen Sheng's nose. If that happened, he would be completely defeated.

Even so, he thought that Mr. Chen was quite courageous. He knew the danger but still dared to come and take a look.

Perhaps it was this mentality that made him think of something, and he sighed, "Many years ago, I set up a trap to kill Chen Ergou, and I had already seen the decline of Guangxiu Xianzong. I didn't expect you to suddenly appear and disrupt all the plans."

That time, he hit the weak spot of Guangxiu Xianzong. Although Chen Ergou resisted it, he was successful in the end.

Unexpectedly, two hundred and sixty years later, Chen Sheng suddenly appeared and stabilized the shaky fortune of the Guangxiu Immortal Sect.

"You are also a man of your time."

Upon hearing this, Chen Sheng felt murderous intent in his heart. Ergou's injury to his foundation was actually caused by this old guy. But on the other hand, he had to admit that Jia Sidao was extremely terrifying and had the ability to dominate the overall situation.

"It's just a life of hard work. After taking you away, I will have no worries and find a place to rest in peace."

Jia Sidao was very tired. He had worked hard for the Jiuxiao Immortal Sect and had shouldered too much in his 800-year career as an elixir cultivator.

He had changed the overall situation in the border area, but he had never been proud. Now he only wanted to kill Chen Sheng and start a new era.

After that, everything will no longer be his business, and the task of unifying the border areas will fall on the shoulders of the younger generations of the Jiuxiao Immortal Sect.
