"Who are you?"

Originally, these guys who had nothing to do were still commenting on the Tianjiao List. But after Gu Dan squeezed in, they were stunned and confused.

"I am the humble Kong Zhai who you all said died unfortunately."

Gu Dan said rather unhappily.

Anyone who suddenly hears the news of his or her own death from someone else's mouth probably wouldn't be happy.

What's more, he has his own plans for managing the identity of Kong Zhai, so how could he give up halfway?

However, Gu Dan's call for an investigation only made the group more excited.

"Kong Zhai?"

"You're not dead?"

"How is it possible that you are not dead?"

Various different voices rang out at the same time, the main point of which was that he should have died long ago.

"I'm not dead, why do you seem disappointed?"

While speaking, Gu Dan glanced at the list of geniuses.

The first place is still Wang Qianjun, and the second place is naturally him.

With over 6,000 contribution points and being a cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage, he has attracted countless attention these days.

From the perspective of gaining fame alone, Gu Dan has already made a lot of money.

At least from now on, Kong Zhai is no longer an unknown person in the world of immortal cultivation, provided that people do not think that he really died accidentally.

"No, no. I'm just surprised. A living Kong Zhai? Are you really in the late stage of foundation building?"

Immediately, some monks gathered around and asked with great curiosity.

"How did you manage to get so many contribution points? If I remember correctly, you added more than 4,000 contribution points in a short period of time. It would be hard to explain if you hadn't met the Dragon King. Tell me how you did it."

"Friend Kong, I see that you haven't registered with a sect. Could it be that you are just a casual cultivator? Are you interested in joining our Dinghai Sect? I will directly treat you as my personal disciple!"

Gu Dan only had time to say a few words before he was overwhelmed by questions.

As they talked, more and more monks gathered around to watch.

"Kong Zhai is back alive? Where is he? Where is he? Let me see what he looks like."

“Wow, the second on the Tianjiao list is back alive? I thought Wang Qianjun was already rampant enough, but I never expected that there is a foundation-building cultivator who is even more ruthless than him. He explored the Dragon Emperor’s palace with a foundation-building body. I’m afraid he is another lunatic who is no less crazy than Wang Qianjun!”

"How could they come back alive? Could it be that the demon race is all blind? If I had known that gathering intelligence contribution points was so easy to earn, I would have gone to earn them too."

Various different voices rang out one after another, not only from the group of people surrounding Gu Dan, but also from further away. Even the monks passing by heard the discussion here and did not hesitate to take some time to come and see who this foundation-building monk who had recently stirred up the waves in Dingwei City was.

Gu Dan is not here and is not very clear about the discussion about the Tianjiao List.

But based on past practice, everyone had already guessed the source of his contribution - and even boldly predicted that he would earn money but not spend it.

Now that he has returned, not to mention being treated like a hero, it is inevitable that he will be surrounded by people.

Some were genuinely curious, some were just there to watch the fun, and some even just threw out an invitation. Even if Gu Dan had three heads and six arms, it would be hard for him to handle so many enthusiastic onlookers.

"Get out of my way!"

Just when Gu Dan felt his scalp tingling, a rude and overbearing shout rang out.

The people who were crowding towards Gu Dan like a tide were forcefully thrown aside.

The monk who was thrown out for watching the fun was furious. He was about to say something harsh, but when he saw the person coming, his expression changed and he lowered his head silently, not daring to argue with him.

"Hahaha, Brother Kong, that's incredible!"

Wang Qianjun pushed everyone aside forcefully and came to Gu Dan. He patted Gu Dan's shoulder with his big hand, and his eyes showed particularly obvious admiration. "With the strength of the late foundation building stage, you overwhelmed all the golden elixir cultivators. You are worthy of being my friend, Wang Qianjun."

There was an obvious sense of pride in his voice, as if he was ranked second on the list of geniuses.

Of course, he wasn't the second.

The first one is.

So it stands to reason that the first has the right to praise the second.

If the second one is so strong, how strong must the first one be?

The more praises given to Gu Dan, the more Wang Qianjun's value increases, which is beyond doubt.

Why don't other people come and grab the title of the first place in the Tianjiao Ranking? Don't they want to?

"Brother Wang is number one on the Tianjiao Ranking, and he deserves the title. I just got second place by chance, it's just luck."

Gu Dan bowed. Wang Qianjun was so enthusiastic that he would not give him the cold shoulder.

As the saying goes, a fancy sedan is carried by people, and this is exactly the truth.

"You are too polite. I have also been deep into the heart of the dragon clan, and I know very well how difficult the monsters there are. It is commendable that I dare to go in, not to mention that I can find something. This is the real ability of Brother Kong. Why should I care about the gossip of some villains?"

While Wang Qianjun praised Gu Dan, he also did not forget to scold the group of spies.

After all, there are many people here who say bad things about him. He doesn't have any other problems except that he holds grudges. He holds grudges very much.

"You look tired and exhausted, you must have just come back, right? Come on, let me invite you to Wanxianlou for a drink."

Wang Qianjun put his arm around Gu Dan's shoulders and forcefully pushed everyone away, not giving them any chance to speak.

Most people would not be able to tolerate such a strong and overbearing behavior, but who made him Wang Qianjun? They didn't even give face to the Saint of Tianji, so who were they here? When they left the crowd, Gu Dan shook his body slightly and easily broke free from Wang Qianjun's palm. He didn't like others to get too close.

"I haven't seen you for a while. Why are you so eager to see me?"

Gu Dan asked with some curiosity.

The last time they met, although Wang Qianjun seemed carefree, he was not as enthusiastic as this one.

When we met again today, he was so passionate that it was a little overwhelmed.

"Well, it's a long story, let's just talk while we drink."

Wang Qianjun waved his hand.

The two men arrived at Wanxian Tower, and Wang Qianjun asked for a private room. It was obvious that he really had something to say that was not convenient to discuss in the hall.

"Brother Kong, let me welcome you first."

Wang Qianjun poured two cups of spirit wine, which was very valuable, costing a full hundred spirit stones. Ordinary golden elixirs would not dare to drink it like this.

"Thank you for your hospitality, brother."

The guest followed the host's wishes and drank the whole cup.

"To make a long story short, I think you know how I got the first place on the Tianjiao Ranking, right?"

After drinking a glass of wine, Wang Qianjun spoke.

"Go deep into Qingzhou and kill the Dragon King."

Gu Dan naturally knew it.

"That's right. This matter can be dealt with quickly rather than later. The dragons are not fools. They will be more cautious if they know they are being targeted. Now that the first dragon is dead, the remaining dragons will inevitably be extra cautious.

If they don't come out on their own initiative, they might be ambushed if they advance too far, and they will surely die."

Wang Qianjun said cautiously.

He seems careless, but he is not stupid.

On the contrary, he is very smart.

The first genius who ventured into Qingzhou to slay the dragon clan, in addition to real ability, had to be bold and careful.

“That makes sense.”

Gu Dan nodded slightly.

"Not only that, the Dragon Clan also holds a grudge against me. They have issued a bounty on me. If I go to Qingzhou again, once my whereabouts are exposed, it will be easy to get into big trouble."

Wang Qianjun continued.

As the saying goes, the first bird to stick its head out gets shot.

The honor of the human race is the hatred of the dragon race.

He was ranked first on the Tianjiao list, but he climbed to the top by stepping on the heads of the dragon clan. Who else could he hate if not him? Undoubtedly, his name was also registered among the dragon clan.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"We are enemies to begin with. Whether we bear grudges or not, that won't change. If you have something to say, please speak directly."

After listening for a while, Gu Dan said directly.

"Okay, then I'll be frank. Brother Kong dared to go deep into the heart of the dragon clan with the strength of the foundation-building period, and even explored the Dragon King's palace. It must not be really based on luck, right?"

Wang Qianjun smiled and waved his hand gently, saying: "No matter what method you use, it is Brother Kong's real ability. I will not be jealous, and I don't want to know how you did it.

It just so happens that I am not very proficient in the detection method, and I dare not say that I can hide from the Dragon King's perception, or even be the first to discover the Dragon King."

"What does my brother mean?"

Gu Dan already understood what Wang Qianjun meant.

"Brother Kong, are you willing to join me and go to Qingzhou? You will be in charge of exploration, and I will be in charge of fighting. If we encounter an enemy, as long as you find them in advance, I will do it myself without you having to do anything. How about the contribution split of 30% and 70% afterwards?"

Wang Qianjun asked seriously, without any intention of joking.

If Gu Dan discovered an enemy, he would split the profits 30% to 70% without taking any action.

This is already quite generous treatment, but the prerequisite is that he has to have real skills, otherwise he will not be able to see the monsters or dragons discovered by Wang Qianjun himself.

When it comes to teaming up, it usually requires a close and trusting relationship.

After all, it's a battlefield where you kill enemies, and the dangers are unpredictable.

Sometimes, we need to guard against more than just our enemies.

He died there, and the stone left behind was thrown away. Who knows whether he was killed by a monster or a human? Although it is not advisable to harm others, it is also necessary to be on guard against others.

If Gu Dan was just an ordinary person with sharp spiritual power, this condition would be quite generous.

After all, with Wang Qianjun backing them up, they can find ways to fight the Dragon King. One can defeat three, and as long as they succeed in hunting him down, the 70-30 split will still be quite profitable.

"Brother Wang, I am very grateful for your kindness."

Gu Dan clasped his fists first, then said: "However, I am exhausted both physically and mentally after going to Qingzhou. I still have some contribution points that I can't use, so I need to take a good rest and improve my cultivation.

In the entire battlefield, the strength of the late foundation building stage is actually not enough. Various situations are inevitable during the war, and I am afraid that I will not be able to move in the short term. "

This is a tactful refusal.

Wang Qianjun nodded gently, but did not scold Gu Dan for not knowing what was good for him. He said, "That's true. But building a foundation and advancing to the Golden Core stage is not something that can be achieved in a short period of time. You have to think it over carefully."

"It's better to prepare early than to sharpen your sword at the last minute, right? The more difficult it is to make a golden elixir, the more you should plan ahead."

Gu Dan said affirmatively.

"That makes sense. I think Brother Kong is taking such a big risk, I'm afraid he doesn't think highly of the ordinary method of forming a golden elixir. However, the golden elixir is not an ordinary breakthrough after all. Before the golden elixir, if Brother Kong really has this idea, it's better to choose a sect to join."

Wang Qianjun said: "In a proper sect, if a disciple breaks through the Jindan level, they will definitely provide some financial support. It is not impossible that they can even get a huge boost and be promoted to the next level."

"Could it be that Brother Wang is going to recommend the Chongyue Sect?"

Gu Dan smiled.

"That's not the case. No matter how much support the Zhongyue Sect provides, it can only provide ordinary golden elixirs at most. I'm afraid Brother Kong would not look down on it."

Wang Qianjun shook his head slightly. Not everyone in the Chongyue Sect could be treated like his own son. How could a cultivator who joined halfway and did not make enough contributions get so much attention? It was true that he was the second on the Tianjiao list and shone for a while, but the time was short after all, and Gu Dan had not done anything more eye-catching. If he wanted to turn his fame into profit now, it would be a bit too much.

There has never been a shortage of geniuses in the world of cultivating immortals, but this is only one consideration. Unless someone is truly exceptionally talented, not everyone will scramble for him.

"Please tell me in detail, brother."

Gu Dan was serious. Since this was about a breakthrough, he naturally had to be cautious.

"Unlike Qi training and foundation building, there is not much difference between them after promotion. When it comes to the Golden Core, there is a huge watershed, and there are also differences between the Golden Cores. Ordinary people who break through the Golden Core are nothing more than Qi Hai Condensed Pills. Such ordinary products will hardly be promoted to Yuanying in this lifetime.

Those with extraordinary talents will use their great magical powers to refine themselves. Their golden elixir will be flawless, and elixir patterns will appear naturally when the elixir is formed. They are considered to be the best among golden elixir cultivators, and have a promising future. "

Wang Qianjun said.

"And further up?"

Gu Dan heard the unfinished meaning in his words, and it seemed that there was more.

"If you go higher, it will be incredible. Have you heard of the Dao Yun Dan? It will melt your body into the Dao of your life! The formation maniac of Tianyan Sect is known as the best person under Yuanying. He is the Dao Yun Jindan, and his combat power overwhelms his peers."

Wang Qianjun shrugged his shoulders and said, "However, there are gains and losses. The golden elixir is the path to one's own body. How can one break the elixir and condense the infant in the future? If one is not careful, one's path will be damaged and all previous efforts will be wasted.

Being the first person below the Nascent Soul stage is both praise and regret. Zhen Chi is very brave and dares to choose this path, but he has not been able to break the pill and condense the Nascent Soul stage, which worries him to death! "

"Since the golden elixir has melted all my spiritual path, how can I break the elixir and condense the infant?"

Gu Dan was also a little curious.

"Destroy and then build."

Wang Qianjun said: "If there is no major breakthrough, then die. Zhen Chi was delusional, wanting to take a path that no one else had taken, surpass himself, condense the infant once, and be reborn twice.

But if it were that easy, why would it be shelved? Even if this path can be taken, most of the time it can only be a temporary success, and you will never be able to break the elixir and condense the infant in your lifetime."

Hearing this, Gu Dan suddenly had a sense of déjà vu.

It seems like I had a similar feeling a long, long time ago.

Soon, he recalled.

innate.

Innate in martial arts!

Wasn't it the same when he was a grandmaster and exploring the innate path of martial arts?

In the end, he still had to rely on the Qi-refining methods to forge the innate with blood Qi.

The so-called Dao Yun Dan is probably the broken road of the former [Golden Dan] cultivation path.

Now that this road is blocked, you can imagine how difficult it would be to get there again.

Zhen Chi is walking on a broken road.

And he has walked this path once. (End of this chapter)
