Chen Yuan had nothing to say about Shi Yangming's chivalrous spirit and courage.
Chen Yuan did not think that he could be like Shi Yangming, who could abandon his life for the word "xia" and disregard his own path of cultivation.
But he also doesn't think he is a heartless person.
The so-called "chivalry" in the world is nothing more than the word "do". As long as you do what you think is right and do it without hesitation, you are the "chivalry" in your heart.
Shi Yangming took the path of a "hero", and he, Chen Yuan, can also become a "little hero".
Escorting the imperial weapons back to the imperial capital was something Chen Yuan had promised the Ninth Prince. It was nothing special to promise Shi Yangming again today.
However, before actually taking action, it is still crucial to understand the cause and consequences of the matter.
The so-called knowing yourself and your enemy means that you are irresponsible to yourself if you don't understand your enemy.
"Brother Shi, you have had a lot of contact with the Ninth Prince. Can you tell me some secrets? For example, the reasons for the war in the world, the benevolence and righteousness of the Ninth Prince, and the Yinsha Sect and the Sun Moon Sect."
After Chen Yuan asked, Shi Yangming coughed twice more, and after his body relaxed a little, he said:
"Speaking of the dispute between the Nine Sons, one cannot fail to mention a dynasty murder case twenty years ago."
About twenty years ago, the Emperor of Da Qi was in his prime, surrounded by three thousand beauties, but he only fell in love with a village woman outside the palace. This village woman looked like a fairy and cooked delicious food, which made the emperor reluctant to return to the court for a long time.
Later, the village woman gave birth to a prince for the emperor, who is now the ninth prince.
For the sake of government affairs, the emperor had to return to the court, but he did not bring the village woman back to the court, nor did he give the village woman any status. He only returned to the imperial capital with the newborn ninth prince.
The appearance of the ninth prince and the emperor's love angered the eldest prince's biological mother, the queen.
So the village woman died unknowingly, becoming a murderous case that the dynasty could never solve.
Later, when the ninth prince grew up and the old emperor slowly grew older, in order to avenge his biological mother, the ninth prince colluded with his cronies and created a coup in the imperial capital against the eldest prince and the queen.
Because the old emperor was not dead yet, the coup failed. But the old emperor knew in his heart that the Ninth Prince was becoming more and more powerful, and the threat to the First Prince was also becoming greater and greater. Once he dies, the dynasty will definitely be in turmoil.
In order to stabilize the court, the old emperor pulled his two sons to his side and told them that he had hidden a piece of Nine Dragons jade seal among the people. Whoever can find the jade seal and bring it to the imperial capital smoothly will pass on the throne of the emperor. who.
Just a year ago, the Ninth Prince found the Nine Dragons Jade Seal, so the Ninth Prince found someone to escort the important treasure to the imperial capital.
As for the monks in the world, except for some powerful monks above the Dan Formation stage, almost no one below the Foundation Establishment stage can be exempted from this farce in the court.
Sects like the Yinsha Sect Sun and Moon Sect had to rely on the court for their own strength and inheritance, and became the thugs of the nine princes.
With their strength in front of the dynasty, they are like ants under the elephant's feet, they can be crushed to death at any time.
"Isn't the dynasty a mortal dynasty? As a monk who goes to heaven and earth, how can he be afraid of a mortal dynasty?" Chen Yuan asked in confusion.
"Mortal dynasty? That is what most people understand. There are immortals with excellent bones among mortals. Are there not among the royal family? Let me tell you, the real strong men are in the hands of the royal family. They protect the dynasty and at the same time rely on the dynasty. Do you think Can a monk in the late stage of Dan Formation or even the Nascent Soul Stage break through the shackles of the Great Dao with one person's strength? Without the support of hundreds of millions of people in the dynasty, no one can achieve it."
After listening to Shi Yangming's words, Chen Yuan finally understood that there was almost no difference between the so-called immortals and mortals, and they could never escape the shackles of the "earthly world" no matter when.
After learning some things about Yinsha Sect and Sun Moon Sect from Shi Yangming, Chen Yuan told the story about the twelve children.
"Brother Chen, don't worry. With my younger brother and Senior Sister Ouyang here, the twelve children will definitely be safe and sound. In three days, I will send them to the Luoxia Sect. Even if they cannot become inner disciples of the sect, they will have peace of mind in the Luoxia Sect. Settlement.”
With Shi Yangming's promise, Chen Yuan can leave and return to Yuecheng with peace of mind.
He did not appear next to the girl Xiao Ou again. He was afraid that he would be the one implicated in "love" and would not be able to leave with peace of mind.
Jumping out of the restaurant window, Chen Yuan first came to the black market in Huiyue City. Because of his experience in entering the black market in Leisure City, he found the black market in Huiyue City easily.
The black market located on the outskirts of the city is not as big as expected, and is even much smaller than the one in Leisure City.
Perhaps because Huiyue City has a relatively large population, the small black market has a lot of people, and the vendors selling magic weapons and elixirs are also close to each other.
Chen Yuan's main purpose of coming to the black market this time was for two items, Huanglong Pill and Talisman Puppet raw materials. After entering Luofeng Mountain, he didn't know what dangers he would encounter. The Qi Gathering Pill was no longer enough to support his practice. It is best to have Huanglongdan which is more effective.
The best herb for refining Huanglong Dan is Huanglongcao, which is an herb that looks like a dragon and has yellowing branches and leaves.
Fortunately, as soon as Chen Yuan reached the middle of the black market, he found two fifty-year-old Huanglong grass. After some bargaining, I exchanged two diamond talismans for the herbs.
After buying Huanglongcao, Chen Yuan began to look for the most important item needed to refine the talisman, Wen Yu.
Although warm jade is not a very valuable item, it is a relatively rare thing. After all, except for monks in the foundation building stage and above who use it to refine magic weapons, few people use it in the Qi refining stage.
After walking twice in the crowded market, I finally found two pieces of warm jade that were only the size of the palm of my hand in front of an old man's stall.
"Brother, I want to buy Wen Yu. The price is not expensive, two pieces together, five hundred spirit stones. If the young hero is willing to exchange it for a Qi Gathering Pill or a medium-grade magic weapon, that's fine."
The old man wore a mask, but Chen Yuan could sense that his strength was probably at the fifth level of Qi Refining.
Chen Yuan doesn't have many spiritual stones left, and he still needs to keep some to upgrade the level of magic weapons and elixirs. As for the magic weapons, although he has a lot of them, he doesn't think they are all useful, so he doesn't want to take them out.
"How many three-star Qi Gathering Pills can be exchanged for these two pieces of warm jade?" Chen Yuan asked.
"Three stars? The grade is a bit low, but if you can get two hundred of them, you can exchange them." The old man said sincerely.
To be honest, two hundred three-star Qi Gathering Pills were like a drop in the bucket to Chen Yuan, but taking out so many pills at once would definitely cause trouble.
The most taboo thing among monks is leaking money. Once someone takes a fancy to your belongings, it will inevitably lead to death.
"Two hundred, that's too much. I only have one hundred plus two five-star Qi Gathering Pills, what do you think?"
The effect of a five-star Qi Gathering Pill is dozens of times that of a three-star. Although two five-stars are not as good as a hundred three-stars, they are still as good as sixty or seventy.
After the old man thought for a while, the two reached a deal.
In order not to attract the attention of some special people, Chen Yuan quickly left the black market after buying the items.
However, his departure still could not escape the perception of one person. This person was stooped and had gray hair. He did not wear a mask like other monks. He looked like an old dead tree who was about to reach the end of his life.
Although every step this man takes is like that old tortoise crawling, people who often come and go to the black market in Moon City know that this is a being who can reach the sky. As long as he takes action, let alone returning to Moon City, even the entire Northern Territory will Trembling.
"Brother Jiu, the little guy you mentioned has appeared. He is indeed a good young man, but I don't know if he is willing to take on this mission. The reputation of Blood Sea cannot be ruined."
The old man lifted his steps gently. Others thought he was staggering, but his figure had already arrived outside the black market.
With Chen Yuan's mental strength, it is natural that he cannot sense the old man's existence. What he wants to do most now is to refine the Huanglong Pill and Fu Puppet so that he can go to Luofeng Mountain more conveniently.
Huiyue City is bustling and crowded, and even finding the quietest inn may cause trouble, so Chen Yuan planned to go to the nearby mountains to complete the preparations before leaving.
Luofengshan is not a mountain, but a range of mountains. Luofengshan is just one of the most famous mountains.
Rumor has it that a divine phoenix descended on this mountain, so it was called Luofeng Mountain.
The peak Chen Yuan chose was located on a hill with a relatively lush forest to the north of Luofeng Mountain. After some spiritual exploration, he finally chose a small cave to the east of the peak.
Chen Yuan didn't know much about the formations, but he had a set of spirit reduction formations in his hands, which he got from the Tianmo Sect.
After setting up the formation in front of the cave, Chen Yuan started refining Huanglong Pill.
"This is about refining alchemy. I really didn't expect that you are not only courageous, but also an alchemist. It would be a pity not to join that divine alchemy hall. Brother Jiu said that you have an extraordinary nature and are one of the rare geniuses. You are an old man. Since I want to use you, I need to know your true ability. Since you want to make elixirs here, I am here to tease you and see if you, little guy, are really capable."
The rickety old man not far away took a playful look at the cave where Chen Yuan was, and then disappeared from the place strangely.
After two hours of refining, Chen Yuan finally got a hundred one-star Huanglong Pills and five hundred waste pills in his hands. As long as he was promoted through the Yin-Yang Cauldron, he could get a two-star Huanglong Pill, or even a three-star and five-star Huanglong Pill.
"No, there is a ferocious beast, and it is a third-level ferocious beast that is comparable to the sixth level of Qi Refining!"
After sensing it, Chen Yuan decisively put away all his belongings and quickly came outside the cave.
At some point, a black ape about two feet tall appeared outside the cave.
At this time, the black ape roared loudly, and its arms were as strong as cattle. Every time they waved, the giant tree collapsed.
Except for killing a wolf when he first started to become a monk, Chen Yuan had never fought against other ferocious beasts.
Therefore, Chen Yuan was not willing to fight with Hei Yuan in front of him.
However, just because he didn't want to, didn't mean that Hei Yuan didn't want to. When the black ape with extremely violent temper and blood-red eyes saw Chen Yuan, he roared and rushed towards him.
