The jade pendant given by Ye Xu is not a weapon, but a piece of fine jade.
Zhong Yan probed into his consciousness and found that there was a soul seal inside, which should be the life-saving trump card left by his ancestor.
The divine consciousness she imparted was a spell prohibition, used to activate the jade pendant.
In addition, there is a magical power called 'Qingling Seal'.
In the information collected by Huo Donglai previously, there was no mention of this technique in the information about the Maple Leaf family.
Zhong Yan guessed that it was taught by Ye Xu's ancestor who returned from traveling, possibly from the Xingyue Sect.
I spent a long time shopping in Fangshi Street and purchased some supplies.
At midnight.
Zhong Yan went to Qianliu Lake for an appointment. Before he finished his meal at Zhiweixuan yesterday, Lu Su sent a message to invite him to a party.
Passing the corner of a lower alleyway, two monks came towards him and stopped him in his tracks. They were the men and women he had met earlier in the Lingfeng Elevator.
Looking at each other, the slightly thin man slowed down and was a little surprised at such a coincidence. He smiled and said, "What a coincidence. Fellow Taoist looks familiar. Have we met somewhere?"
You are wearing a mask, who knows which one you are... Zhong Yan frowned, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Maybe he is destined to have a good face, but I had no impression of it before yesterday."
The male cultivator nodded, his consciousness swept over rudely, and pointed out: "You are very special."
After saying that, Cuoshen and the female cultivator walked away.
Zhong Yan also walked straight forward, constantly searching for similar body shapes in his mind. His voice and breath were easy to conceal, but his body shape was difficult to change.
It's just that the other party has the foundation-building Dzogchen realm and his spiritual consciousness is strong enough. He has not had much contact with this type of monk.
As for the "special" in the other party's words, it should refer to the inability to see through the realm.
Generally speaking, whether it is a method of concealing aura or a treasure that hides a realm, there are certain restrictions. If you have enough spiritual consciousness, you will still be able to see through them.
"It seems that he is more powerful than I thought."
"For me, there should be no conflict."
Zhong Yan shook his head secretly, and when he reached the city road, he flew high into the sky.
Qianliu Lake is the largest lake in Jingcheng.
The blue waves are rippling, the lake is full of colors, and the shadows of boats are like weaving.
The beautiful trees on the lakeside are lush and green, the strange rocks are scattered here and there, the silk and bamboo are melodious, and there are endless pedestrians on the arch bridges across the river.
Somewhere, a three-story dragon-headed boat docked by the river is three to four feet high, with bright lights and wonderful music.
In the spacious and luxurious cabin, a group of children from aristocratic families were chatting and laughing.
The man is handsome and graceful; the woman is beautiful, delicate and charming.
The young male cultivator holding a folding fan looked around, looked at Lu Su, the organizer of the gathering, and asked with a smile: "Fairy Su, which fellow Taoist is not here yet?"
Lu Su is wearing a snow-white dress, her pearls are spitting out the clouds, her body is slender, her skin is as good as snow, her fox eyes are full of beauty, and she naturally exudes a charming temperament.
She looked outside and said with a smile that sounded like nature: "Two fellow Taoists, An Song and Zhong Yan, are also here today."
Everyone was startled, with strange expressions on their faces. After secretly suppressing laughter, their eyes fell on the man in blue behind Lu Su.
The reason for the weirdness and suppressed laughter is that An Song and Zhong Yan have somewhat similar reputations.
Although Zhong Yan has not been in Jingcheng for a long time, he is well known to everyone because he married a direct disciple of Qifeng and has a close relationship with Dongfang Tuo.
At many gatherings after that, he got the title of "soft rice man" because he flirted with many ladies from aristocratic families in the city and showed obvious intention to cling to each other.
An Song, on the other hand, was even worse than him and was known as 'the strongest son-in-law in Jingcheng'.
"Brother Hui, if your brother-in-law doesn't take care of the children at home, how can he still have time to party?"
"When did Zhong Yan get out of seclusion?"
"..."
As soon as the discussion started, everyone turned to look, and after a while, they saw someone opening the window.
Zhong Yan followed the maid in, smiled and looked around: "Zhong Yan is late, please keep everyone waiting."
Lu Su smiled and stepped forward: "Brother Yandao!"
Li Zehan: "It's not too late, it's early."
"..."
There was a brief polite exchange of pleasantries.
Zhong Yan could tell that, except for a few, the attitudes of these young masters and young ladies from aristocratic families were not as friendly to him as they were at first, and they seemed to be inferior casual cultivators who were not worthy of being associated with them.
Some even showed obvious contempt and hostility, such as the young man in blue shirt Lu Ruiqi.
As for the reason, Zhong Yan also knew that he regarded himself as a rival in love.
Lu Ruiqi comes from the Lu family. Although his surname is Lu, he is not of Lu family blood. Instead, he has shown excellent qualifications since he was a child and was brought into the family to train him. His outstanding achievements earned him the surname Lu.
Their status is equivalent to that of a guest, but their status is much higher than that of a guest. Some even have a higher status than their direct descendants.
There are many people like this in various families, and they usually marry the women in the family and become their son-in-law.
Lu Ruiqi, on the other hand, has reached the peak of the third level of foundation at a young age and is highly regarded by the Lu family.
There are rumors in the outside world that he and Lu Su are a couple. They are close to each other and often follow Lu Su. They want to marry Bai Fumei and reach the peak of life.
Zhong Yan was not surprised at all when he saw himself, who was particularly favored by Lu Su, as his opponent.
However, Zhong Yan looked down at him.
Lu Su is one of the "six beauties" of the younger generation in Jingcheng. She has many suitors, and each of her competitors has extraordinary strength.
Lu Ruiqi just felt that he, a weak outsider, was easy to handle, so as to satisfy the winner's mentality in his heart.
It's just that you are so idle that you are looking for trouble, and you have a bad mind.
Others, such as Sun Hui and Yang Fan, who were also suitors of Lu Su, would not dare to be disrespectful to them at least on the surface.
Not long after.
The window door opened again, and the maid led a man and a woman in.
Everyone stood up to greet him.
Zhong Yan looked around and saw a man in a white brocade robe. He looked so handsome and elegant, and he felt like he wanted to avoid his sharp edges.
The girl in the pink skirt is also unparalleled, with beautiful eyes, charming smile, and elegance.
It was the first time I saw him, but Zhong Yan recognized him from the portrait given by Qiu Mingyue. He was Sun Ruihan, the leader of the Six Beauties of Jingcheng.
Hearing the title, Zhong Yan suddenly realized that the man in the brocade robe was the famous 'strongest son-in-law', An Song!
This person can be called a "legend" in Jingcheng and even Yan State.
Zhong Yan heard his story at the first party three years ago.
An Song used to be a casual cultivator. When he was refining the sixth level of Qi, he met the only disciple of the first casual cultivator in the Yan Kingdom, Taoist Zhuyun. The two became Taoist couples despite the opposition of Taoist Zhuyun.
A year later, the Taoist monk died, and An Song went to Jingzhou and met the oiran of "Hua Man Lou", who convinced him to become a good man and make a private life.
However, within a few months, the two reconciled, and An Song joined a family named Zhang in the city.
As a result, the next year, An Song was attracted by a female cultivator with true spiritual roots from the Sun family, which led to the destruction of the Zhang family.
Then, An Song married into the Sun family, one of the four major families in Jingcheng, and soared into the sky.
It doesn't stop there.
Not only did he marry Na Zhenlinggen, but he also married eight female cultivators from the Sun family, including Sun Yourong, the former "one of the six beauties" of the Sun family.
It can be said that he has reached the pinnacle of manhood and is regarded as a god by many casual cultivators.
In addition to being extraordinarily handsome, An Song himself has good qualifications. Although he has three attributes of pseudo-spiritual roots, his essence is of high purity. The key is his strong bloodline, and more than half of his children born have spiritual roots.
Now in his early forties, he has cultivated to the fifth level of foundation building, the highest among the people.
The young girl Sun Ruihan smiled and said: "Sister Su, I heard from my brother-in-law that we are coming to the party. Ruihan also joined in the fun and took the liberty of coming uninvited. Don't interrupt?"
On the side, his brother Sun Hui rolled his eyes and felt disgusted: An Song, this bitch, started to have ideas for Han Mei again...
Lu Su said with a smile: "Sister Ruihan, what are you talking about? I'm afraid you won't come even if I invite you!"
After greeting each other, Lu Su briefly introduced the monks who did not know each other.
An Song took a look, nodded with a gentle smile, and Zhong Yan smiled back.
The boat was roaming around and everyone took their seats.
A maid came in carrying dishes and drinks, and six graceful dancing girls came in through the door directly in front, dancing gracefully as the music played.
This kind of gathering is said to be about exchanging cultivation experiences, but most of the time they are drinking and having fun, listening to music and dancing, and reciting poems and writing poems.
Although on the surface a group of people are pleasant and chatting and laughing, secretly there is also competition and intrigue among the children within and outside the clan.
Drinking wine and drinking wine alternately, pushing cups and changing cups.
After three drinks.
Lu Su took the guqin and played a song.
The melodious and melodious movements of the bare hands cleanse the soul, and the graceful dancing on the stage makes people mesmerized, and everyone starts shaking their heads.
Afterwards, everyone talked about current events in the spiritual world.
"It's been more than three months, and the Cangxing Sect still hasn't been breached."
"After all, it is a large force of ten thousand people. With the golden elixir in charge and the mountain-protecting formation, it can be broken easily."
"It's just a stubborn resistance. Once all the countries carve up their families and attack together, they won't be able to capture them."
"That's not necessarily true. The situation is changing rapidly, and the five countries may have already attacked each other by then."
"Our Yan country has suffered a lot. Even core disciples like Li Shi'an have begun to fall."
"..."
Zhong Yan listened quietly, talking to people around him from time to time, or transmitting messages to other places. He learned a lot of news from Bai Feifei.
unconsciously.
When the conversation turned to him, Li Zehan looked up and asked with a smile: "Zhong Daoyou has been in seclusion for more than three years. He should have made great progress in cultivation and successfully built the foundation, right?"
Eyes gathered one after another.
Yan Yujing blinked her beautiful eyes and said, "Yes, Brother Tao, your secret method is really mysterious, it can hide the realm so completely without revealing any fluctuations."
Zhong Yan said with a face of shame: "I'll make you laugh. Zhong's qualifications are poor. In the past few years, he pursued the realm and took a lot of pills to catch up. As a result, the foundation was not solid. He even used three foundation-building pills in seclusion to break it. Barrier, don’t leave the barrier to get some fresh air and relax your mind.”
Sun Ruihan glanced at him and seemed to have noticed him, and sent a message to Ansong: Brother-in-law, who is that person? He looks as good-looking as you...
Lu Su comforted him: "Brother Taoist, don't worry too much. Foundation building is not as difficult as forming a pill. If you fail once, try a second time to solidify the foundation. Next time, you can break through with a higher grade Foundation pill. There is still a lot to be done." hope."
Everyone agreed, probably secretly despising the ridicule and gloating.
There are also people who have no scruples and disdain to hide. Yang Fansi, a disciple of the Ba Yuan Sect, kindly advised: "It's important for people to be self-aware, and their qualifications are there. If you can't break through, you can't force yourself. Mediocrity is also a way of life. You have a Taoist friend in purple to protect you." , glory and wealth are indispensable.”
Some people smiled and said nothing, while others laughed.
Lu Ruiqi said: "loyalty may be offensive, but these words are reasonable."
Okay, give your sweetheart to Huo Huo tonight... Zhong Yan thought to himself, but smiled on his face and said: "That's what the two fellow Taoists said."
Lu Su tried to smooth things over and changed the subject: "There are five years until the vassal competition. I wonder if this competition will be cancelled?"
Sun Hui: "I can't tell, I feel like this battlefield will last for a long time."
