He immediately gave an order, asking the trial disciple to take out a severed arm from the pile of debris.

The broken arm was deep red in color, gleaming with a metallic luster. It was very heavy, and exuded a sinister evil aura.

“The quality is very high, definitely a Jindan-grade material. And it’s not just a single material, but a brand new mixed material made using the alchemy method.” Zhu Xuanji exclaimed in his heart.

"Is this also a mechanism in the Lava Fairy Palace?"

"What level of organization would use such material?"

Zhu Xuanji instantly thought of the three major mechanical creations of the Lava Fairy Palace - the Taoist Master, the Buddhist Doctor, and the Demon General.

"Could this be the demon general's arm?" Zhu Xuanji naturally came up with such a guess.

He was very interested and ordered his disciples to take out the red iron broken arm.

But without success.

The trial disciple looked bitter: "Master Zhu, I can't do it. My contribution is too low."

Zhu Xuanji smiled and said, "It's okay. The Lava Immortal Palace is not peaceful, and there are still continuous attacks by the Red Flame Monster. You can take this opportunity to accumulate a large number of contributions."

After the trial disciples did as they were told, Zhu Xuanji discovered that for killing the same red-flame monster, the contribution obtained by the trial disciples was far greater than that of others.

Zhu Xuanji also discovered that the disciples on trial could receive key information from time to time and had more ways to earn contributions.

It is basically impossible for them to receive any information from the Immortal Palace actively, and there are very few ways to obtain contributions from the Immortal Palace. The most important thing is to kill the red flame monster.

However, given the dangers of war, this approach is extremely risky.

On the other hand, the trial disciples had a wider range of choices, such as obtaining mechanical parts from abandoned houses and repairing and assembling them.

After observing their actual income, Zhu Xuanji was surprised to find that the income from this kind of maintenance work was even better, completely comparable to the income they earned from killing the red flame monster.

"Is this the treatment you get from practicing the techniques provided by the Three Sect Masters?"

"In comparison, we are obviously treated differently..."

Zhu Xuanji was filled with emotion.

For a moment, Zhu Xuanji had a fantasy of reform.

But it's only a glimmer of fantasy.

He is already a golden elixir. If he is at the foundation-building stage, there is still a slight possibility of regretting and starting over.

Once the golden elixir is forged, the foundation is completely established and can no longer be rebuilt in this life.

As the saying goes, there is no regret in making the golden elixir, this is the truth.

The speed at which the trial disciples accumulated contributions was very rapid, and soon someone had accumulated enough to exchange for the red iron broken arm from the abandoned room.

Zhu Xuanji came into contact with the severed arm, and at the same time used his golden eye talent and the tracing technique to detect it.

He saw an underground molten cave.

The cave is huge, with countless pillars, some thick and some thin, supporting the cave walls.

A gigantic demon ape, emitting a golden elixir-level aura, was sleeping with its eyes closed.

There was a hole in the stone pillar where it slept, which stored the magic ape's various spoils, including a dilapidated mechanical puppet.

"Mechanical Demon General!" Zhu Xuanji's eyes suddenly lit up.

"From the looks of it, this underground cave should be the lair of the demon ape, similar to where the king's court is."

"The Mechanical Demon General fell here, but if I can find him back, I will definitely be able to gain a lot of contribution."

"If we can repair it and return it, the contribution will be even greater!"

Zhu Xuanji could easily guess that the contribution of finding the Mechanical Demon General would far exceed the sum of his previous free contribution of three Quasi-Golden Core Mechanical Beasts. This was because the Mechanical Demon General was a Golden Core combat force, and was an original mechanical device that perfectly matched the Lava Fairy Palace.

The king's order to recruit talented people made Meng Kui lift the blockade of the mountain top and the fairy palace.

Countless people flocked to the Lava Fairy Palace, and most of them were excluded from the palace, but a small number of people met the standards and were able to enter the palace.

The Lava Fairy Palace has become even more lively than before the blockade.

Zhu Xuanji also felt the pressure of competition.

At the moment, he urgently needs to make huge contributions to widen the gap with the pursuers behind him and establish his own advantages.

The three golden elixir ancestors of Huoshi Xiancheng are Zhu Xuanji's helpers.

The three major families all invested in two ways.

The second way is to train your own repair team and continuously break through the levels of the Lava Fairy Palace.

This is the style of the cultivation family. They don't put all their eggs in one basket.

Therefore, the real great cultivation clans have high-level cultivators who serve in different countries, even hostile countries.

…

Bang! Ning Xiaoren slammed his palm on the table in anger and growled, "Did he really do that?!"

"Okay, okay."

"I originally thought that the Zhou family and the Zheng family had discovered the arrangement one after another and found out the marks of the trial disciples."

"I didn't expect it to be Ning Zhuo!"

"For just a thousand spirit stones, he sold such important information to Zheng Jian and Zhou Zeshen!"

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

"Does he know that our Ning family can take advantage of this opportunity to narrow the gap between us and the Zhou and Zheng families?"

"He actually disregarded the overall interests of the family for his own selfish reasons!"

"This Ning Zhuo is too short-sighted, too narrow-minded, and too selfish."

"But if we didn't agree to give him Ice Jade Wine, he would immediately sell the information to foreign tribes."

"Eat in your own mouth and betray your own people!"

"Is he still a member of the Ning family? He has been in school for so many years, what did he learn?!"

"It seems that he must be taught a lesson to let him know that he has done a terrible job and made a huge mistake."

Ning Xiaoren paced back and forth in the study. After a moment, he ordered to freeze the supply of resources to Ning Zhuo from the renovation team.

But then he thought that Ning Zhuo's resources for cultivation were far more than this, and he also had many other channels of income, which was very generous.

Ning Xiaoren thought of Ning Xiaohui again. She gathered the main members but only got to room two, while Ning Zhuo broke through to room eight.

"Ning Xiaohui is not doing well."

"If he can suppress Ning Zhuo, this kid can still make waves. Is he so ambitious?!"

Ning Xiaoren paced for a while and then gave the second order.

Ning Zhuo joined the renovation team, and he had the power to command Ning Zhuo and tell him what to do.

"Aren't you devoted to studying mechanical creation?"

"Very good, Ning Zhuo."

"Now, you can't even spare half an hour to study your mechanism." Ning Xiaoren sneered in his heart.

Ning Zhuo refused the order.

Ning Zhuo withdrew from the renovation team.

"What?!" Ning Xiaoren was dumbfounded when he learned about this.

After he realized what was happening, he was filled with anger and hatred.

"How audacious! How audacious!"

"How dare he, how dare he!"

"How dare he refuse the family's appointment and unilaterally withdraw from the renovation team?!"

“Ahhhhhh!”

Ning Xiaoren was so angry that he picked up the inkstone on the table and smashed it to the ground.

After smashing it, he suddenly felt like something was missing.

So he went to the private prison and met Ning Ze.

"What a good nephew you have!" Ning Xiaoren raised a long whip and kept beating Ning Ze to vent his anger.

Ning Ze: "Ah——!"
