"Mr. Chen!"

Taoist Yan Cheng exclaimed.

Although he had not had much contact with Mr. Chen, as a powerful figure of that period, he could still recognize him.

He recognized him. He was horrified just now. A dead person was standing right in front of him. It was unbelievable.

"It's me, long time no see..."

Chen Sheng had a calm expression and acknowledged the fact of existence. He lived in seclusion for a hundred years and returned to the border area again.

"How is that possible? You should have passed away. The scriptures of the major immortal sects clearly record that you entered the Tao eight hundred years ago, and the lifespan of a Jindan Zhenren is eight hundred years. No matter how much you have accomplished, you cannot go against the destiny."

Taoist Yan Cheng couldn't help but speak. Chen Sheng's death was already a foregone conclusion. They had studied it and found that there was no possibility of him faking his death.

But he just pretended to be dead.

"How many days..."

In response, Mr. Chen just sighed and didn't explain anything further.

"You're going to kill me!"

There was a moment of silence around him, and then Taoist Yan Cheng thought of something. Combining the situation, he concluded that Chen Sheng's intentions were vicious.

This was intended to cause his death, which would trigger hatred between the Chiling Immortal Sect and the Jiuxiao Immortal Sect. As for the Guangxiu Immortal Sect, there were three masters in one sect, no, there was also a Chen Sheng who faked his death and lived in seclusion behind the scenes, taking advantage of the chaos to fish in trouble until he established his throne.

All the time...

The border areas are unified, and this Guangxiu ancestor who has lived like a weirdo will leave a brilliant mark in this glorious history.

"You understand."

Mr. Chen did not argue. In his opinion, Taoist Yan Cheng would not be able to escape this time. Even if he understood the truth, it would be meaningless because the news could not be brought out.

"I want to see how you are not dead? What is your combat power?"

Taoist Yan Cheng had doubts in his mind, but as he was in danger, there was no point in thinking any further.

The most important thing now is to save his life, and he has always been weighing Chen Sheng's intentions. He thought he had no chance, but after going around in circles, he was still able to take action.

"clang"

With his mind calmed, a hint of murderous intent flashed in Taoist Yan Cheng's eyes. He held an iron sword in his hand, like a nimble black sword, with claws and fangs exposed. The sword edge was cold and hard, carrying the dark silence of death.

An evil wind blew up from the void, so sharp that it crushed a layer of the outer shell of the mountains and the earth, turning it into a thin powder.

With narrowed eyes and a sharp edge hidden deep inside, he can be described as extremely ferocious.

"This is my sword. It's unwise of you to use it against me."

Chen Sheng stood firmly on the ground and shook his head at Taoist Yan Cheng. It was a bit too arrogant to use his magic sword to kill him, the sword master.

“Buzz…”

He communicated with the iron sword with his spirit, and the trajectory of the sword was clear and simple. Then the sword tip deviated and fell into the void, allowing Taoist Yan Cheng to open his mind.

Chen Sheng would not let go of this opportunity. His two fingers were like swords, suddenly pointing out. There was a buzzing sound of piercing the air, as sharp as a sword of gold and iron, piercing Taoist Yan Cheng's arm, and a bloody hole immediately appeared. The hand holding the sword loosened at once.

"Bang"

The iron sword fell in mid-air. Chen Sheng moved extremely quickly and caught it. At the same time, he poured his magic power into it and started to activate it.

In an instant, an indescribable sharpness bloomed between heaven and earth, as if a snowy mountain collapsed and a sword dragon came out to kill.

“Swish…”

Taoist Yan Cheng trembled violently, leaving a deep sword scar on his body. In the turned-out flesh and blood, the smooth bones could be vaguely seen.

"That's what you're good at."

He frowned, having learned a lot about Chen Sheng's abilities. He was so powerful that it was no wonder he could cause the death of Taoist Chongzun.

"clatter"

Chen Sheng was speechless and charged forward silently. The pitch-black iron sword in his hand was emitting a jet-black sheen, looking extremely magical.

He slashed down with his sword, and a grand and dazzling sword light spread out. It was like a galaxy falling from the sky, or like all the stars in the sky were falling together, giving rise to a terrifying power.

"boom"

Taoist Yan Cheng felt heavy in his heart and his eyes were like water. He took out his magic sword, which was as rippling as water, as if it contained a vast ocean.

He displayed the Never Returning Sword Technique, which was in perfect harmony with the spirit of the sword. The sword light was like water waves and clouds, carrying an extremely ethereal feeling.

This was an extremely powerful attack, but unfortunately it met Chen Sheng and was instantly destroyed under the brilliance of the Star-Slaying Sword.

“Boom…”

The huge sword light stagnated for a moment, then attacked again. Taoist Yan Cheng gathered his energy, and the hair crown on his head spread out, leaving his black hair standing on end. He fully stimulated the power of the magic sword, performed sword techniques, and started killing again.

This time, the star-slashing sword intent was finally dispelled, but Chen Sheng did not stop. He swung his sword again, still slashing the stars. The grand light flooded the void and shook Taoist Yan Cheng's body.

"puff"

Taoist Yan Cheng suffered a severe injury, his spirit was low, and the Star-Severing Sword Intent had left his body covered with wounds.

"I can't fail here."

Feeling his life force slipping away, he became timid and used a trick to escape.

"You are too tired. You should rest."

Mr. Chen shook his head. Taoist Yan Cheng had already suffered some damage in his spirit after the battle in Qingping Valley. He did not have any valuable treasures of the Chiling Immortal Sect on him, so he could not show his power. He had miscalculated.

In such a murderous situation, a miscalculation could result in death.

“Buzz…”

Behind Chen Sheng, boundless divine light bloomed, and the entire sky was golden, as if it was made of colored glaze.

The source of everything is the exquisite precious pearl, which hangs high in the sky, showing its tremendous power.

"How can there be such a divine object that shines like the sun?"

Taoist Yan Cheng's figure seemed to be frozen, and his escape speed was slow. He turned around and saw the exquisite pearl, with surprise in his eyes.

This is a precious treasure with infinite power, which may be beyond the control of the major immortal sects.

“Boom…”

The exquisite gem vibrated, gathering all kinds of strange visions and condensing into a small, round one, emitting a strong and terrifying power, as if all the vitality was compressed into a small space.

Then, the exquisite gem flew out, as fast as light and as hot as lightning, shattering the disordered spiritual energy and killing Taoist Yan Cheng.

"Bang"

Taoist Yan Cheng suddenly felt the fear of death in his heart. He released a lot of magic power and raised his sword to fight back.

However, the power of the exquisite pearl was too strong, and it shattered all visible and invisible objects.

"puff"

In the end, Taoist Yan Cheng's brow bone was pierced, and an exquisite gem came out of his body. The divine light was restrained, the bead was round and smooth, without a trace of blood.

Looking at the whole battle, it was very short from the beginning to the end, and the area where he took place was also unknown. It was a pity for such a Jindan Zhenren to be so lonely and hasty.

However, this news will surely shock the entire border area and make countless cultivators excited. After all... that is a Jindan Zhenren.

"Taoist Ruhuan teamed up with Zhao Mang to kill Taoist Yancheng and took away Chen Sheng's inheritance."

As expected, the death of Taoist Yan Cheng caused a sensation in the border area, but part of the truth was hidden, creating a reasonable and concise logical chain.

This was naturally the result of the guidance of the Guangxiu Immortal Sect.

All of a sudden, three sects were involved, two major immortal sects and the first Taoist sect under the immortal sects, with a total of three Jindan Zhenren.

This is a great man who is aloof from the world, and also a giant occupying the border area. He should not make too much noise.

"Is this true? It has been a hundred years since a Jindan Zhenren died."

"What will the Chiling Immortal Sect do? But one of their ancestors was killed."

"Is the Jiuxiao Immortal Sect going to unify the border areas? This time the gains are huge."

…

In private, however, the situation is different. These secrets are of great interest to both the immortal sects and individual cultivators.

Every bit of information involving Jindan Zhenren is worth discussing and recording.

Jiuxiao Immortal Sect.

"I didn't. It wasn't me."

Taoist Ruhuan was confused and denied it repeatedly. He said that he had fought with Taoist Yancheng and asked Zhao Mang to help, but in the end it was Taoist Yancheng who obtained Chen Sheng's inheritance and left in a cool manner.

Afterwards, Taoist Yan Cheng died suddenly. He was as shocked as others, or even more shocked.

"You really didn't kill Taoist Yan Cheng?!"

Taoist Zhenfeng looked solemn, and even after Taoist Ruhuan denied it, he still emphasized it once more.

This matter was too reasonable and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

"Really not."

Taoist Ruhuan said sadly and angrily.

Even Taoist Zhenfeng couldn't accept it all at once. The criticism from the outside world must have been even more noisy. He was tainted with the stench for no reason and felt very aggrieved.

"Who did it? Guangxiu Xianzong? Zixi Xianzong?"

Taoist Zhenfeng fell into deep thought. Since Taoist Ruhuan did not kill him and Taoist Yancheng died again, it meant that he was framed.

But there is another problem. He is a Jindan Zhenren, and there are only a handful of people who can kill him.

He asked people outside to collect information on the movements of the Jindan Zhenren from various immortal sects, and strangely discovered that none of them went out at the same time.

"Someone is targeting my Jiuxiao Xianzong and is secretly planning something."

Taoist Ruhuan came to his senses and realized that the death of Taoist Yancheng had undoubtedly created enmity between the Jiuxiao Immortal Sect and the Chiling Immortal Sect.

Originally, this kind of hatred was nothing, but he was not the one who killed the man, so it felt bad to take the blame.

"The Chiling Immortal Sect will definitely not let this go."

Taoist Zhenfeng was in great trouble. This was a huge unsolved case, and the situation in the border area suddenly became confusing.

and……

The dead was a Jindan Zhenren. No matter which force it was, they would investigate it to the end and would not let it go easily.

…

"This great vengeance must be avenged."

An excited voice rang out in the vast world. In the Chiling Immortal Sect, two young Jindan Zhenren felt that a storm was coming, and they were filled with resentment and murderous intent.

When will their Chiling Xianzong be bullied?

"The Jiuxiao Immortal Sect is powerful after all. If you and I want to fight against Taoist Zhenfeng and others, we still need some time to improve."

Shi Shujing calmed down. He was older and the heavy responsibility of steering the Chiling Immortal Sect fell on his shoulders. There were too many things to consider and he must not act on impulse.

"Then kill the people of Qing Ping Valley, and then wait for an opportunity to attack Jiu Xiao Xian Zong."

Jiang Xianqing gritted his teeth and accepted it, agreeing to adopt a temporary suspension strategy towards the Jiuxiao Immortal Sect, but the death of Taoist Yan Cheng required an explanation.

Give an explanation to the people of the world, give an explanation to the Chiling Immortal Sect, and give an explanation to him.

Qingping Valley is a good venting point. There is a Jindan Zhenren, but his foundation is shallow. If the two of them join forces and then use the foundation of the Immortal Sect to kill him, he can be easily destroyed.

"good……"

Shi Shujing nodded. This was indeed a good suggestion, but it required careful planning. If it failed, it would deal another blow to the power of the Chiling Immortal Sect.

…

Qingping Valley.

"Grandmaster, how come you changed so suddenly?"

Zhao Yunting felt that the world was like a dream. Even a strong Taoist like Yan Cheng was defeated in an instant, and the final result was inconsistent with what he knew.

"This is Jia Sidao's inheritance. It contains the secret of advancing to the Golden Elixir stage. You should comprehend it carefully."

Zhao Mang didn't explain much. He probably knew it in his heart, but it was enough for him to know it. It would not be good to leak too much.

He had great expectations for Zhao Yunting, and passed on Jia Sidao's teachings, allowing this young man to practice well and be promoted to a Golden Elixir True Person as soon as possible.

"I will reach the Golden Core Realm as soon as possible and share the burden with the Grandmaster."

Somehow, Zhao Yunting felt a sense of urgency in his heart. The situation in the border area was volatile and uncertain. Taoist Yan Cheng said he would die, so he would die. Fortunately, the Chi Lingxian Sect was a big family and could still hold on.

If this happened in their Qingping Valley, the foundation they had worked so hard to build would be lost in an instant.

"I'm waiting for you."

Zhao Mang smiled with relief. He was already old and could not look after the younger generation for too long, nor could he bring shelter to Qingping Valley.

The future belongs to the young. Even if Zhao Yunting is promoted to Jindan Zhenren, he would be willing to die instantly.

Zhao Yunting left to practice diligently. The place was quiet with only Zhao Mang there.

“Only when you enter the game will you realize how dangerous it is.”

At this moment, he showed a trace of fear. A powerful Jindan Zhenren like Taoist Yan Cheng was involved in the situation and was like a swimmer who was good at water and was drowned in an instant.

He felt deeply that the border areas were full of dangers, so after achieving the Golden Elixir Real Man status, he lived in seclusion, which was indeed a brilliant move.

Now that he had stepped out, he plunged headfirst into the situation. Even though there was a Mr. Chen standing behind him, he still had a sense of being on the edge of an abyss, and was trembling as if he were walking on thin ice.

"The Jiuxiao Immortal Sect suffered a loss this time, but they are not going crazy. But the Chiling Immortal Sect, after losing Taoist Yan Cheng, will definitely initiate a reckoning."

"If you pick on the weak, will the war spread to Qingping Valley?"

"Is this also part of Senior Chen's plan?"

The situation is dangerous, and Zhao Mang needs to think about more things, but in the final analysis, it is still a game between Guangxiu, Jiuxiao and Chiling. If he can understand their thoughts, he can avoid disaster.

"What should I do?"

He calculated all the mysteries of heaven and human nature, sorted out all the clues, and got back to the final point. However, he was ultimately lacking in strength and foundation, so he could only be an errand boy and help out in the game of the Immortal Sect.

He didn't know what others were thinking, but as it concerned the future of the sect and the deaths of countless disciples, he had to make the most favorable choice.

"Whoosh"

The golden sword carried a letter and flew out from Qingping Valley, but it was not heading towards Guangxiu Immortal Sect, but to seek help from Jiuxiao Immortal Sect.

In his mind, with Chen Sheng in charge of the Guangxiu Immortal Sect, there is great potential in planning affairs in the border areas. Therefore, it is correct to provoke a fight between the Chiling and Jiuxiao sects and weaken their fighting power.
