After a long time, Cheng Ling stood up and recovered the true energy and injuries in his body.
Seeing that Xi Yan was still helping Xuan Wuxiang heal his injuries, he didn't bother him. After looking around, he found Xuan Zhenzi, Zhang Hu, and many disciples from the Formation Hall and Dan Hall in the hall.
He asked Zhang Hu: "Where is Su Rui?"
Su Rui has been his friend since he was a child, and he is also the only person who has been sincere to him since he was a child. It's a pity that his talent is not good, and he has been lingering in the early stage of foundation building for more than six years.
However, Cheng Ling always thought of his benefits and asked Zhang Hu to take care of him after becoming the sect leader. Now that he was no longer among his disciples, he asked about him.
Zhang Hu said: "Master, Senior Brother Su Rui went out for training a few days ago. I'm afraid he won't be able to come back in a year or so."
Cheng Ling nodded, it was better to go out so as not to get involved in the sect fight. He then said to Xuan Zhenzi: "Uncle Master, what do you think of today's events?"
Xuan Zhenzi sighed and said: "I believe that the sect master is not the murderer of Ling Xiao, and there must be a hidden secret. But now, what should we do? Have we been hiding in the hall?"
Cheng Ling smiled bitterly and said: "The two great princes are highly cultivated, plus Xiao Changtian and the masters of the Cheng family have not been dispatched. I am afraid they will have to hide in the main hall."
"But what if they forcefully attack the formation?"
Cheng Ling sneered and said: "Uncle, don't worry, let alone three of them at the Nascent Soul Stage. Even if there are thirty of them, the formation I set up will not be able to attack them."
Xuan Zhenzi felt at ease, and all the disciples were relieved. Thirty Nascent Soul monks, unless they are from Famous Sword Academy or a top sect, there are not that many at all.
Zhang Hu asked: "Master, why did Yang Taishang join forces with Xiao Taishang to deal with you?"
Cheng Ling waved his hand. They must be doing it for the thicker book, but he couldn't say much about this section. He just stood aside and waited quietly for Xuan Wuxiang and Xi Yan.
At this time, several people outside the main hall were discussing countermeasures. They did not expect that the formation of the main hall was so clever that they could not break into it.
Xiao Changtian asked: "As the supreme elders of the sect, are you still unable to enter the main hall? The matter has been exposed, and Liu Qingyan is not here, do you still have any worries?"
Yang Sen and Xiao Yan met each other and smiled bitterly, and said: "We don't know. In the past, we could enter the palace formation by spending some real energy. I guess today Xuan Zhenzi's formation level has been upgraded and it has been upgraded."
They still don't know that Cheng Ling's formation skills are much higher than Xuan Zhenzi's. However, Cheng Ling has only been back for a short time, and the formation methods can only be taught in private, and no one in the sect knows about it!
Xiao Changtian said: "Since we can't break the formation, we should use force to break it and let the Cheng family people come too. We will fight and no one can escape."
The two people's eyes lit up. If people from the Cheng family were also involved, even if Liu Qingyan turned around, there would still be room for change.
Yang Sen was about to call his disciples to invite the Cheng family when he heard a voice: "Don't bother me, I'm here!"
It was the man in black robe and Cheng Yuan and others who came.
Xiao Changtian laughed and asked, "I wonder which senior of the Cheng family you are, please enlighten me!"
The old man looked at him indifferently and said, "I'm Cheng Maogong, your identity is probably not simple!"
Xiao Changtian said: "It turns out that he is the third elder of the Cheng family. How disrespectful! How disrespectful! I am a casual cultivator, so I have no status at all!"
The old man knew in his heart that he had not told the truth, and he didn't care. He just looked at the main hall and asked, "Why, you princes can't even enter your own main hall now?"
Yang Sen and Xiao Yan were greatly embarrassed and could only smile bitterly and remain silent.
Xiao Changtian said: "The level of the formation here is quite high, I'm afraid it won't be easy to enter.
Please also ask the third elder to help! "
"If I help break the formation, then who will own Cheng Ling?"
The three of them were stunned. Just as they got to the point, they suddenly started to attack, just for Cheng Ling. If the old lion opened his mouth and monopolized the benefits, what a waste of time!
Xiao Changtian said: "The third elder's request coincides with ours. Do you think this is a good idea? Let's break the formation together. When Cheng Ling is captured, the benefits will be shared by everyone!"
The old man pondered for a while, waiting for his answer. But a slim figure rushed over and said loudly: "Third uncle, why do you want to deal with Cheng Ling? He didn't do anything to the Cheng family!"
The old man said: "It turns out to be Yan Bing. Don't get involved in this matter. I'm just following the family master's instructions!"
"Impossible, how could dad agree to hurt Cheng Ling? He clearly knows that he and I... have that!"
After all, Cheng Yanbing was a woman, and the words "engagement" were still not utterable in public.
"These are not my business. I just need to catch Cheng Ling. Cheng Yuan, take the young lady down!"
The old man suddenly felt impatient and ordered Cheng Yuan to get rid of her.
Cheng Yanbing was stubborn, stretched out his hands, and shouted angrily: "Who dares to touch me! Third uncle, I will never let you hurt Cheng Ling today. Even if you go to dad, I will make it clear!"
The old man sighed to himself, it seemed that the young lady was really fascinated by that boy. Don't let her get entangled any longer, otherwise things will change!
With a movement of his body, he was in front of Cheng Yanbing in an instant. He stretched out his finger and she fell down!
The old man supported her and said to Cheng Yuan: "Why don't you have someone take the young lady to have a rest!"
Cheng Yuan waved his hand, and several female disciples helped Cheng Yanbing leave.
Xiao Changtian laughed and praised: "The third elder is decisive in killing, Xiao Mou admires him!"
The old man said calmly: "That's all, just do what you said. After capturing Cheng Ling, everyone can share the treasure!"
"Okay, then let's attack together!"
Everyone agreed and started attacking the main hall.
In the hall, bursts of loud rumbling noises were heard. Despite Cheng Ling's assurance, Xuan Zhenzi and others were still uneasy. They couldn't help but walk to the palace door and look outside.
Cheng Ling felt it and found that the attacks were concentrated at one point and were destroying the foundation of the formation. He was shocked. It seemed that there were experts among them!
As a result, the formation's persistence time will be shortened. If the base of the formation is broken, the defense of the entire formation will be greatly reduced, and people from outside will not be able to stop them from entering.
He came to Xuan Zhenzi and said: "Uncle Xuan, it seems that there are experts outside who can deduce the nodes of the formation. You lead the disciples to stabilize the formation. You must keep repairing it and never let the formation energy leak out. !”
Xuan Zhenzi nodded cautiously. He also knew that Cheng Ling really gave him the opportunity to learn the formation. With his level, he didn't need a fake hand at all.
He followed Cheng Ling's instructions and led the disciples in the hall to constantly repair the formation.
As a result, the two sides reached a stalemate. Those on the outside are breaking, but those on the inside are repairing. Fortunately, Cheng Ling upgraded to level six, otherwise he really wouldn't have been able to hold on.
He kept teaching Xuan Zhen the location of the child node and how to repair it. Xuan Zhenzi studied hard and put it into practice, and his formation cultivation improved very quickly!
In this way, after three days, Xuan Wuxiang finally recovered. Xi Yan also breathed a sigh of relief. She had been helping him heal his wounds these past few days. Zhen Yuan did not dare to stop at all, but she was exhausted.
Now that Xuan Wuxiang was finally rescued, he quickly began to recover the consumed real energy.
.
Xuan Wuxiang opened his eyes and smiled bitterly in his heart when he heard the sound of bombardment formations outside. The sect has finally made new progress, and such a change is really unexpected.
He looked at Cheng Ling and asked, "Did you kill Ling Xiao?"
"no!"
Xuan Wuxiang breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Okay, if you say no, I will believe you! But why do Yang Sen and Xiao Yan join forces to deal with you?"
Cheng Ling sighed softly, sat cross-legged in front of him, and put some sound insulation and concealment restrictions around him before asking: "Mrs. Xuan, before I answer your question, I have a few more questions to ask!"
Xuan Wuxiang nodded and said, "Okay, you ask!"
"Six years ago, I left the sect and returned to the Chen family. Did you set an ambush on our way back?"
Xuan Wuxiang pondered for a while and said, "I didn't ask anyone to ambush him, but I know it was the Xiao brothers who did it."
Cheng Ling's eyes flashed coldly and asked, "Aren't they taking orders from you?"
"No, what they really listened to was Xiao Yan!"
"Is this true?"
"Seriously, I am willing to swear an oath of heaven!"
"Then why didn't you stop it? Do you know that my master died in their hands!"
Xuan Wuxiang said with shame: "I didn't know about that at first, but I found out later when I heard their brothers' conversation. I also always thought that both you and Uncle Xuan were dead!"
"Do you know now why they are against me?"
Xuan Wuxiang sighed: "I understand, they are all for the secrets in the secret book, but the secret book has been in my hands for hundreds of years, so there is no secret!"
Cheng Ling's heart moved and he asked, "Do you have the secret book in your hands?"
"Yes, Senior Sister Liu put it in the library back then. I also wanted to explore the secrets in it, so I took it over, but after hundreds of years of research, there is nothing mysterious about it!"
"Then where are you now?"
Xuan Wuxiang glanced at him and said: "You are all here for the secret book. I knew it when Cheng Xueyao came to the sect!"
"You were originally a handyman disciple with extremely poor qualifications. You suddenly had an enlightenment more than ten years ago and your cultivation has been advancing rapidly. Could it be that you really cracked the secret of the secret book?"
Cheng Ling said: "My qualifications are not bad. When the Supreme Master Xuan was the sect master, I never observed him carefully. Only my master, who has been teaching me carefully, has allowed me to achieve what I have today!"
Naturally, he couldn't tell Xuan Wuxiang about Jin Ye. The relationship between them was far from reaching the same level as Xuan Lingzi!
Xuan Wuxiang was silent. He didn't believe that Cheng Ling could crack it. How many sect elders could not crack it after hundreds of years of poverty? How could Cheng Ling, a young man in his twenties, be able to crack it!
Cheng Ling asked again: "Where is that thick book now?"
Xuan Wuxiang said: "In this sect master's hall, if you succeed as sect master, the books will naturally belong to you!"
Cheng Ling was secretly happy, she didn't expect to get it so easily.
Xuan Wuxiang walked to the sect leader's chair and patted it on the chair. A dark layer was revealed on the wall behind him, and a thick book was placed inside!
Cheng Ling took two steps forward, took out the thick book and put it into the storage ring.
Xuan Wuxiang said: "I advise you not to hope to crack the secrets. No one has cracked it for hundreds of years. It is better to just hand over the book to them, and the sect's crisis will naturally be resolved."
Cheng Ling said: "Even if no one can crack it for hundreds of years, I will not give the book away. If you want to get it, it depends on whether they have the ability to break the formation!"
