No matter how shocked and suspicious the monks of the Ming family were, it seemed to be of no use. The object of suspicion had already left Mingyuefang and was now missing.
In fact, the Ming family's thorough investigation into the death of the Yingyue Sect disciple was carried out extremely carefully.
Even Chen Dengming's sudden departure caused the female cultivator surnamed Li to think that Yingyue Sect disciples were looking for the casual cultivator surnamed Chen, and she began to become suspicious.
But after some investigation, I learned through Boss Hu from the Business Alliance that Chen Dengming had already thought of leaving two months ago.
It's just that some items to nourish the spirit body and cultivate spirit beasts have not been purchased, so they continue to wait and stay in Mingyuefang.
This clue proves that Chen Dengming's departure was not a sudden impromptu decision, and it seems to have nothing to do with the death of the Yingyue Sect disciple.
However, as usual, the Ming family monks entered Chen Dengming's house and conducted a careful inspection.
This entire survey process lasted for several days, and almost nothing was found.
But no matter how careful Chen Dengming was, he still overlooked some details that are normal and easy to ignore.
Through the many trees in the courtyard that looked like "plagues", the monk surnamed Li guessed that Chen Dengming might have been practicing the "Shui Yin Mu Yu Poison Technique".
The special insidious effect of this technique is clear to anyone who has come into contact with it.
The female cultivator surnamed Li immediately thought of the many abnormal behaviors that Nangong Yun had in Fangshi that night.
How could a normal person suddenly appear after missing for two days, then leave Fangshi alone at night, plunge into the monster cave, and engage in a suicidal fight with the monster?
At this point in the investigation, all the doubts about the whole matter have been solved.
It's a pity that time has been delayed so far that no one can find Chen Dengming again. This is also the result of Chen Dengming's hard work and planning.
The detailed investigation results about the cause of the incident were quickly entered into the jade slips and summoned to Yingyue Sect.
The Yingyue Sect also handles the deaths, injuries, or requests for help from disciples who have gone down the mountain for training in different levels.
When the news of Nangong Yun's death actually reached the ears of his master, foundation-building monk Yue Kun, Chen Dengming and Zhu Xun had successfully entered Juelin City together.
At this time, it was the third day since they arrived near Juelin City.
The commotion caused by the bloody battle between the Yu and Liang cultivating families lasted for two days before it ended.
In the end, except for a few beautiful female relatives with spiritual roots and beauty, the entire Yu family was almost completely wiped out.
In addition, many casual cultivators and guest officials who followed the Yu family in the past were also besieged and killed, and a few people took advantage of the chaos to escape.
This bloody battle that took place outside Juelin City was witnessed by many monks in the city.
Some people looked on with cold eyes, some people had the right to watch a good show and have fun, some people sympathized with it, but no one would care about the many mortals who had gathered outside the city gate to avoid the war.
Most of these mortals are ordinary people who once lived within the Yu family's sphere of influence.
Once the war breaks out, it can be said that everyone becomes a fish in the pond.
After all, there were only a few people who could escape to the city gate, and most of them died on the way, or the trees fell down and the hozens scattered, and they fled to more remote places, where they didn't know whether they were alive or dead.
"Take a look, take a look, pass by, don't miss it, those in the front row, if you don't buy, give way, because you are blocking the customers behind."
"Come on, come on, the mid-level magic weapon Jade Wheel Shuttle just bought from the battlefield is 90% new. This is the unique magic weapon of the Yu family. The Yu family has been destroyed. After passing this village, there is no such shop. "
Juelin City's busiest stall market street, with as many monks coming and going as crucian carp crossing the river, rubbing shoulders with each other.
The crowds are noisy, and the huge city of cultivating immortals is just like an ordinary market place.
Many monks yelled at the top of their lungs, and the vulgarity was even more cruel and bloody. Many products were just stained with blood and human lives, and were quickly transported and sold.
When a whale falls, all things come into being.
The fall of a cultivating immortal family instantly brought prosperity to the market in Juelin City.
Chen Dengming and Zhu Xun, each wearing a human skin mask, wandered around the market.
Chen Dengming even used the bone-shrinking technique, changing his height and appearance under the mask. There were two Cold Hook Iron Claw Wu Lingduo hanging on his waist.
He looks like a tall, thin, cold demonic cultivator wearing black clothes with a sinister temperament.
Zhu Xun, the meat seller, has a strong body and a fierce temperament. He follows Chen Dengming step by step, like a follower. This combination makes people who pass by him become frightened and walk around in a hurry after bumping into him.
The two of them walked around and watched the excitement for a while, and finally stopped at a small market auction where many monks were crowding up to raise prices.
The goods being auctioned were none other than a group of female members of the Yu family.
Each of these women was dressed up with exquisite make-up, and wore gorgeous robes of different styles, which made their figures look sculpted. With the blessings of their past identities, they looked extremely attractive, attracting many monks to watch and comment on them. .
But it is obvious that no matter how gorgeous these women are, no matter how exquisite their makeup is, they all look sad and panic-stricken at this moment, with their eyes full of fear.
"It seems that these female cultivators are all controlled by secret techniques. Tsk tsk, the youngest one is only twelve years old. She has a medium-grade spiritual root. She is a good youngster. Maybe she will be bought by a certain family as a child bride, right?"
"It's too expensive. It costs fifty yuan of medium-grade spiritual stones. The price is outrageous. The golden figure is inlaid with crystals."
"The older one is cheap, she must be the former wife of the Yu family. Her charm is still there, and she also has a middle-grade spiritual root. Which Taoist brother is good at this?"
Some monks who were thick-skinned were talking in a frivolous and harsh way.
Chen Dengming watched for a moment, then greeted Zhu Xun, who was looking at it with great interest, to leave.
Even if he has traveled through time and lived for more than eighty years.
Seeing these women being trafficked, he still felt depressed and not in a good mood.
After all, there is still a big difference between the society we lived in before time travel and the world of immortality today.
What is happening now, in that world, at least where he lives, cannot be openly stated openly.
One day later.
The spiritual house management and leasing office in Juelin City.
Chen Denming raised his hand.
Zhu Xun, who changed his name to Benniu, immediately took out two middle-grade spiritual stones and handed them to the deacon in charge of the matter.
The deacon took it politely with a smile. After completing the corresponding procedures, he handed a spiritual house waist plate to Chen Dengming and said politely with a smile.
"Fellow Daoist Gao, if you need to renew the lease, you only need to give us a reminder three days in advance."
For these two monks who were not easy to mess with at first glance, the deacon in charge of leasing was not without a good eye and was very polite in his words.
This behavior made the monks queuing up behind to sneer at him.
On weekdays, the deacon of the spirit house is very arrogant, but he also looks at people. Sure enough, if a good person is bullied by others, a good horse can be ridden by others.
Chen Dengming took the token, nodded slightly, and said hello, maintaining his aloof persona, and then turned and left with Zhu Xun.
The decision to rent in Juelin City for one month was based on the view that the place was comfortable enough for practice, and Chen Dengming also needed to find Jiang Qiang.
Juelin City has many monks from all over the world who come and go every day, which is also suitable for him to inquire about the news about the Immortal Sect, so as to decide which sect to join in the future and make plans.
Taking advantage of Nangong Yun's experience, Chen Dengming directly used the pseudonym "Gao Hu" when he came to Juelin City this time, and Zhu Xun also used the stage name "Benniu".
The two of them were a tiger and an ox, with a slight evil aura about them. They were completely different from before. Even if the monks from the Ming family came after them, they would not dare to recognize each other and would even walk around in fear.
"Grandma's stay is only for a month, but it still costs two middle-grade spiritual stones. That's an average of seven low-grade spiritual stones a day."
After leaving the spiritual house rental office, Zhu Xunrou cursed in pain. Compared with the rent in Mingyuefang, Juelin City was too expensive.
Two middle-grade spiritual stones can be rented in the Taohuawu mansion in Mingyuefang for nearly two years.
"Every inch of land is precious. The spiritual house we rent is below the second-level spiritual veins and on the first-level spiritual veins. The water flowing in front of the door every day is spiritual spring. I think the rent is cheap."
Chen Dengming was very open-minded and said with a faint voice and a smile, "And on the way here, just by selling monster meat and dealing with the group of Liang family monks who bumped into us, we also harvested nearly six pieces of middle-grade souls." Stone. It’s more than enough to pay the rent.”
Zhu Xun's eyes lit up. After looking around, he sent a message, "Brother Chen Dao, the magic weapon left behind by the Liang family monk after his death has not been taken yet, so why don't we take action?"
"Um?"
Chen Dengming raised his eyebrows and stopped and said, "Don't be greedy for a small profit, or you will get into big trouble. Now the Liang family is the winner. If you use those monks' magic weapons, if you are found out, are you asking for trouble?"
Zhu Xuntan, after thinking about it for sure, gave up the idea.
Chen Dengming directly asked Zhu Xun to hand over all the magical weapons he obtained that day to prevent this guy from having any thoughts.
What goes up and what goes up is what works, that is the ideal state.
If it doesn't work up and down, it will backfire in many cases.
As a superior, you still need to put an end to guidance in a timely manner.
Juelin City is affiliated to the Spiritual Weapon Sect of the Immortal Cultivation Sect, and was handed over to the management of the Sheng Family, a family power under its command.
This city is the first city on the border of the Eastern Region. It has two first-level spiritual veins and one second-level spiritual vein. It has Feiyun Peak in the back and the vast Dongjiang Plain in the frontier.
After crossing Feiyun Peak, you will reach the water of Dongjiang River. You can go eastward along the river to reach the hinterland of the Eastern Territory.
Therefore, Juelin City also has the Immortal City Inlet built along the water in the north of the mountain. Some water mansions have even been built in the nearby river area to provide some wealthy foundation-building monks with entertainment and residence.
This city is the transportation hub from the border to the hinterland of the Eastern Region. There are many monks coming and going every day and trade is prosperous.
The spiritual house that Chen Dengming rents is on Feiyun Peak.
The price for selling a second-level spiritual house is 300 yuan of medium-grade spiritual stones and the right to live there for one hundred years.
Compared with the house in Jinxiufang, which also requires 300 pieces of medium-grade spiritual stones, Chen Dengming feels that Juelin City is much stronger.
The property in Jinxiufang is obviously very foamy and watery.
At least Juelin City is strong and stable enough, and has a good reputation, so it won't easily cause any trouble like beasts.
Moreover, the spiritual houses in Juelin City are actually built on the first-level spiritual veins, rather than being adjacent to each other.
The two soon came to the tenants of the rented spiritual house on the mountainside of the city.
If you get closer to the inside, you need to show your token, so no one else can enter.
It also prevents anyone from sneaking in to obtain spiritual energy for free.
The two rented a small two-story house, which was enough to live in.
After entering the aura control token to activate the formation, the two entered the house.
You can feel that the spiritual energy that is far more abundant than in the wild fills the house, and it seems to be like wisps of mist.
Every time I take a breath, I feel that my cultivation is about to move, as if it is about to improve.
This is of course a psychological illusion.
Chen Dengming regained the feeling of being in the Luo family in Luoshan City.
But now, the Luo family has long lost the treasured spiritual land of Luo Family Mountain.
He no longer needs to worry about the Luo family's spiritual treasure land.
Zhu Xun got busy with his hands and feet, using cleaning skills to clean up the dust and stains in the room.
Chen Dengming chose a room, put the things in, and then took out two Gu pits from the beast control bag and placed them in the courtyard.
Nowadays, the auras of the two Gu insects in the Gu pit are becoming more and more fierce and powerful, and it feels like they will be completely promoted in the next two days.
Chen Dengming greeted Zhu Xun and went out to look around at the neighboring houses.
I plan to still be familiar with each other, and distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors.
As a result, I finally met a neighbor and raised my hands to clasp my fists. The other person immediately looked nervous and alert.
Chen Dengming was surprised and realized that the character he was 'playing' now had a different temperament.
He immediately clasped his fists to show that he meant no harm, and then returned to the house. One more thing is worse than one.
A few days later.
When Chen Dengming began to practice in Juelin City, he inquired about Jiang Qiang and the Xianzong sect.
However, after several days, some news about the Immortal Sect was found, but there was no clue about Jiang Qiang's whereabouts.
"Brother Chen Dao, we have checked all the shops selling array disks in the city in the past few days, but we still can't find that fellow Daoist Jiang. He should not be in Juelin City, right?"
In the tea shop, Zhu Xun shook his head and spoke while drinking tea.
The two of them had made an agreement that no matter what they communicated when they were away from home, they would resolve it via voicemail.
Chen Dengming frowned when he heard this, with a look of thought in his eyes, and said, "Friend Zhu, in the next few days, I will trouble you to walk around the city more. It is best to find some local snakes. Let these people help find people. It will be more convenient." ”
"Okay, Brother Dao, you're too polite. There's no need to worry about anything." Zhu Xun responded with a smile.
Chen Dengming patted the storage bag casually, took out the flying sword and other items of the Jinxiufang monk that he had destroyed in the past, and handed them to Zhu Xun to handle, giving him 30% of the profit.
Zhu Xun hurriedly declined, but in the end he couldn't accept it, and he felt even more motivated.
Brother Chen Dao, I can definitely follow him. He is generous, powerful, and cautious and low-key. Such a boss cannot be found on his knees in Jue Lin City.
After sending Zhu Xun to run errands, Chen Dengming took a sip of tea and looked at the bustling crowd on the street outside, feeling that he might not be able to find Jiang Qiang.
Both he and Jiang Qiang miscalculated.
Juelin City is not too big.
The overall area is equivalent to a small county town in the previous life.
But if you compare it to Jinxiufang, this city is too big, and it handles a lot of people every day.
It is not easy to find Jiang Qiang in such a city.
And there is another important issue. The cost of living in Juelin City is very expensive. Even an ordinary house will cost a lot.
Although Jiang Qiang had a lot of savings, it was obviously not enough to live in the house for half a year.
"Even if Qiangzi comes to Juelin City, he is not stupid. If he can't find me after living here for a month, he may leave and go to other places."
Chen Dengming felt relieved when he thought of this.
Jiang Qiang is smart enough and has strong adaptability. He is not stubborn and will naturally find another way out if he can't be found.
With the other party's skills in making formation disks, he could still find a living even in Juelin City.
If you leave the city and stay in a mortal town, you can survive for a long time.
He has arranged for Zhu Xun to do what he can do now, so it is useless to continue to worry about it.
Chen Dengming then went to the Merchant Alliance and other stores in the city to purchase methods for concealing or changing bone age. Corresponding detection methods were also needed.
After asking around the city in the past few days, he had basically locked in a few sects in the Eastern Region.
Immortal sects in the Eastern Region such as Shu Jiange, Changshou Sect, Qijue Sect, Wucai Sect, Tiandao Sect, etc. are all famous sects of cultivating immortals and have a very good reputation.
Once you join these sects, you can be said to have joined the establishment and become a civil servant cultivating immortals. You are completely different from the casual cultivators.
However, these prestigious sects are just like famous universities in previous lives. The threshold for joining is very high, and they almost do not accept casual cultivators who join halfway, which may cause confusion among the disciples and problems with their character.
Of course, if you are a casual cultivator with high-grade spiritual roots, or a tenth-level Qi training casual cultivator who has great potential and is about to break through the foundation building, there is a high chance that such a cultivator will join the sect.
Among casual cultivators, there are almost no people with high-grade spiritual roots.
If such a good fairy seedling really existed, it would have been collected by the sect many years ago.
Even monks who have reached the tenth level of Qi training are extremely rare.
After all, there are almost no casual cultivators who can reach the tenth level of Qi training with their own resources, and their qualifications cannot be bad.
Therefore, even if such casual cultivators appear, they all appear strange and suspicious. If you want to join the Immortal Cultivation Sect, your own conditions are sufficient, but you will definitely be interrogated.
Chen Dengming has been worried about this recently.
He is an old cypress hundreds of feet tall, still green despite all the weather. He looks young, but is actually quite old.
Yes, his condition is tough enough, but his bone age is definitely very high.
Once you join one of these large immortal cultivating sects, you will be easily traced, which will cause trouble.
But Chen Dengming was unwilling to enter the Taoist sect of the Immortal Sect.
He urgently needed to change to a better practice method.
The "Three Yuan Spirit Gathering Technique" is really too low-level, which has limited his cultivation speed.
Now, even if the cultivation environment has improved, his cultivation speed is limited by his skills and cannot increase much. This is a waste of resources and time.
And only after joining a large sect can he learn more advanced Taoism without any obstacles and continue to extend his life.
Instead of being like now, he has already reached the ninth level of Qi training and has not been able to learn even one of the first-level, eighth-level and ninth-level Taoist techniques.
…
"Fellow Taoist Gao, I'm really sorry. We don't have this kind of technique in our store, but we still have the magic weapon for testing. Do you need to buy the magic weapon directly, or do you need to test it on site?"
In a shop, Chen Dengming, who was personally received by a shopkeeper, looked at Chen Dengming secretly and said politely with a smile.
Chen Dengming refused expressionlessly, "No! Thank you shopkeeper! I want to buy a magic weapon directly."
The shopkeeper smiled to express his understanding, and immediately sent a waiter to deliver a magical instrument that looked like a syringe, and handed over a black invitation with a smile.
"Since Fellow Taoist Gao is the holder of the VIP badge of our Merchant Alliance, I will treat you well, little old man, and I hope you will support me more in the future.
This is the admission ticket to the secret shop of Qile Auction House. The secret shop will be opened in a few days, and there may be something that fellow Taoist Gao wants to buy. "
Chen Dengming's eyes lit up, he accepted the invitation with a calm demeanor, and with a smile on his lips, he said, "Thank you, shopkeeper!"
"No need to be polite, Taoist friend Gao."
"Tao, Taoist friend, there is no one around, you can start."
After a cup of tea.
In a deserted alley, the little formation spirit stuttered to remind Chen Dengming.
Chen Dengming nodded slightly, activated the syringe-shaped bone age measuring instrument, put the instrument slightly nervously close to his arm, and then anxiously observed the changes in light on the surface of the instrument.
This bone age measuring instrument can measure the bone age up to four hundred years old, and it is distinguished by the order of seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue and purple.
Red is the youngest, and is the age zone under fifty years old, and the older the age, the older.
The light of the magic weapon fluctuated quickly, and finally stayed in the green area. Although it was light green, it also represented that it was two hundred years old.
Chen Dengming suddenly looked ugly.
He glanced at the panel.
"Life: 83/238/397"
“I look like I’m eighty-three or almost eighty-four years old, but practicing the art of destroying life and uprooting seedlings has seriously depleted my energy and energy.
The actual bone age loss, even though it appears younger because of my long lifespan, is still two hundred years old. In this state, I will definitely not be able to join those large sects that want to measure bone age. "
Chen Dengming frowned and took off the syringe weapon, his eyes flashing with a cold light.
"If it really can't be solved, I can't say, I can only practice to the tenth level of Qi training and try to break through the foundation building. After becoming the foundation building, I can buy or join some small sects, and I can easily get better skills. Law."
It is impossible for Qi training monks, even if they have tenth level of Qi training, to easily join some small sects and directly obtain better skills.
But the foundation-building monks are different.
When some small sects face those who actively ask to join in foundation building, most of them will happily welcome them.
As for some non-core skills, they will definitely be given out as welfare gifts. Even if they are interrogated, they will not be carried out too much. They will mostly be circumstantial testing and observation.
However, whether he can get all these preferential treatment depends on whether Chen Dengming can break through to the foundation building stage with the power of a casual cultivator.
Disaster! too difficult!
It’s not easy for casual cultivators to get everything!
Building a foundation is even more difficult than reaching the sky!
Chen Dengming also didn't know whether he had no bottlenecks in his usual cultivation and would also have no bottlenecks when it came time to break through the foundation building.
After all, he was not born with innate abilities, so there are still some risks involved in making breakthroughs from innate abilities to Qi training.
If there are risks in breaking through the Foundation Establishment, no matter how small the risk is, Chen Dengming is not willing to take risks by joking about his future. When it is time to prepare the Foundation Establishment Pill, he still has to prepare...
(A big chapter of 6,000 words has been distributed. If the monthly ticket reaches 60, there will be another big chapter in the afternoon or evening! Scroll it up)
The old cypress trees stand hundreds of feet tall, still green after being weathered by wind and frost.
When will I build the foundation and transform into a dragon, will I hear the wonderful sound of the Immortal Sect.
(End of chapter)
