The year is short in the mountains, and March passes in the blink of an eye.

During this period, the news that Jiang Daolian invited Chen Heng to fight had already spread far and wide without her intention.

It smelled that even she was miserably defeated.

The morale of the people in the family is depressed again, and their morale is even worse.

Even the usual domineering and arrogant attitude has been slightly restrained, and his behavior has become much more cautious, causing many people in the Han family to secretly celebrate with their hands on their foreheads.

And as soon as this matter spread.

Chen Heng also gradually became the leading figure among the Ji Ji sect, and became very popular.

Together with Deng Ji, Xie Su, Sima Quantong, etc. from the other three academies, he was famous among the people at that time and was collectively known as the "Crown of the Four Academies".

This reputation even spread to Xiaoming Daze. Chen Heng received another hundred thousand talismans and several bottles of elixirs, and his pocket became increasingly rich.

But no matter how much the outside world advocates and clamors.

However, Chen Heng, the person involved, still lives in seclusion and does not easily appear in front of others.

Unless it was for the necessary monthly homework exams or when the master was teaching the Dharma, it would be extremely rare to see him...

In addition to practicing meditation in her own cave.

Chen Heng, however, would go to the Shen Yuan branch of Qingluo Peak every seven days to ask her for advice on difficult matters in Taoism.

Back and forth.

This matter has gradually become a habit.

Those who were seduced by Chen Heng's current reputation and wanted to invite him to banquets, hunting trips, or travel to earn merit together, saw his behavior and gradually gave up their minds.

Even if there are some shady and underhanded tricks, it becomes even more difficult to use due to Shen Yuanzhi...



And this day.

Lingyin Peak.

In a quiet room.

Chen Heng's eyes were shining brightly, he sat cross-legged on the futon, opened his hands, and held up a mouthful of dark red blood mud about ten feet square. He secretly stirred up the spell, causing the blood mud to be wrapped in a dense cloud of light, bit by bit. wear away its form.

An hour later.

He suddenly heard a clear whistle, and a line of scarlet smoke rushed out from the top door. His eyes were completely red for a moment, as if they were stained with blood!

And with the sound of muffled thunder, the walls were shaken by rumbles and tremors.

The void is also slow.

Ninety-nine and eighty-one drops of eclipse red water emerged.

Red, miserable, cold, burning and eye-catching——

Chen Heng made a move with his hand, and the eroded red water began to swirl around him, giving off a bright brilliance.

He took a closer look and saw that the red water was full in shape and as smooth as pearls. It was obvious that the essence inside was already complete. It had reached the extreme level of Xiaocheng and there was nothing more to add. He couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

Yin-eroded red water cannot be created out of nothing.

If it is lost.

It is necessary to collect the spiritual power of Yin Eclipse and refine it again.

Chen Heng used several battles to defeat Wang Dian. The ninety-nine and eighty-one drops of Yin Erosion Red Water in his hand were reduced to less than thirty, and there was still more left after missing half.

Yin-eclipse spiritual intelligence has always been precious and rare. Although there is such a thing in Changyingyuan, it needs to be exchanged for merit.

At this time.

The golden paper deed he signed with Jiang Daolian undoubtedly solved his urgent need.

However, Jiang Daolian did not expect that the ingenuity required to eclipse the red water would be so huge.

The magical materials sent several times were only able to produce three to five drops of red water, and it was no longer sustainable.

The current dark red blood mud is called blood evil mud. According to legend, deep in the heart of the earth, after the spiritual veins decayed, a ray of spiritual energy happened to be immortal, and was contaminated with the nearby evil spirits and extremely cold soil. Over time, it accumulated It was only through the entanglement that it was able to emerge biochemically, which is quite rare and hard to find.

Chen Heng saw that after cultivating ninety-nine and eighty-one drops of Yin Erosion Red Water, this side of the Blood Demonic Mud was still full of ideas.

Apart from the slight loss of an edge, the shape has not changed much.

Then he knew that this blood evil mud was indeed a precious thing. Jiang Daolian took out the real treasure and put a lot of effort into it. He couldn't help but nodded slightly.



"It is often said that the wealth of the family is overwhelming, but today I can really see it. And what is the amount of wealth that has been accumulated since ancient times?"

He raised his hand and sent out a burst of true energy, took the blood evil mud, played with it for a while, then put it into the Qiankun bag, thinking to himself.

At this moment, a chime bell suddenly rang softly in his heart.

If the gurgling water washes over you, all distracting thoughts and dust will be swept away.

Chen Heng put away his distracting thoughts and grabbed a small golden bell that was vibrating in his sleeve.

Knowing that the time to listen to the lecture had come, he stood up from the futon and pushed the door open.

After a few breaths, there was a sound of footsteps in a hurry, from far to near, and then the figure of Tu Shange appeared, and he bowed and said:

"Congratulations to the master on his release from seclusion!"

Chen Heng nodded briefly and said with a smile:

"Today is the time to go to Master Shen's lectures. During these few days of retreat, does Jiang Daolian have anything to ask me?"

"Yes, indeed there is."

Tu Shange nodded quickly and said: "She sent a legal notice to ask what kind of legal materials the master needs. Let him explain it clearly once and for all. Don't disturb her in bits and pieces..."

That's it.

Tu Shange hesitated for a moment, then bravely spoke in a low voice:

"She said that the master is very nagging, which is really annoying..."

"Explain it once and for all?"

Chen Heng smiled softly when he heard this and said lightly: "Since she has such a request, how can I fail to fulfill her wish?"

Say it.

Chen Heng thought for a moment, then returned to the room to get the letter. He picked up the pen and filled the whole paper in a moment, and handed it to Tu Shange.

"Wait, sir..."

Tu Shange reached out to take it, and after just one glance, his expression turned a little horrified.

He opened his mouth wide and hesitated to speak.

"Master Shen has summoned me. It is inconvenient for me to miss the time, so I will go ahead."

Chen Heng raised his true energy, and it turned into a white light that rose into the sky and shot directly towards Qingluo Peak.

Tu Shange was left stunned in place with a tangled face, holding the page of letter in his hand at a loss.

"It seems that today, old fox, I will have to be scolded again..."

a long time.

He finally came to his senses slowly and smiled bitterly.

And another place.

Chen Heng fell from the clouds and was led through several layers of palace palaces by the waiting maid to a side hall.

I saw lush flowers, trees and ancient trees on both sides——

The hall was filled with flames, and the gold and red colors were billowing endlessly.

From a distance, there was still a wave of heat rolling over me, making my skin feel slightly hot.

"The disciple has met the guru."

Chen Heng slapped the people in the hall.

Shen Yuanzhi turned to one side and looked out. After seeing the person coming, he nodded slightly.

She was sitting on an apricot futon. In front of her was a bottomless dark pit. A bronze cauldron about ten feet square hung in the center of the pit. There was a fierce fire rising from the bottom, fierce and fierce. The cauldron was faintly scorching red.

Chen Heng saw that the bronze cauldron was divided into three layers. Each layer was engraved with images of the sun, moon, and stars. It was very clever. Every time the cauldron vibrated, it would cause colorful lights and shadows, as if it was about to fall. Countless pieces of debris will be splashed out, and the light will flow out.

"This is the first time I've seen this evil pit and furnace."

he thought.

"You came."

Shen Yuanzhi waved his plain hand gently, and the endless flames rolling under the cauldron turned into a little golden light, which was put into her sleeves. Immediately, another cold current rose up in the pit, like a snake slithering around. Wrapped in a bronze cauldron.

In a burst of sharp and sharp sounds, the three lights of the sun, moon and stars inscribed on the tripod shone brightly, like a thousand rays of light.

At this time.

Shen Yuanzhi suddenly raised his hand and pinched it, which stopped the strange sound.

"Today I will teach you how to refine Shuiyun Pill. The first level of Zifu is also called the return to the root of all things. This pill can nourish and strengthen the soul. It can be of great use after cultivating Zifu."

She spoke slowly.

"In this case, the disciple would like to thank the master for his teachings."

Chen Heng bowed and said solemnly.





Three hours later.

As the last pill in the cauldron was completed, Shen Yuanzhi also stopped talking, closed his eyes, and expressed the intention of seeing off his guests.

Chen Heng stood up and saluted, bowed his head, and said goodbye to Shen Yuanzhi.

He then exited the palace and was led out of Qingluo Palace by a maid.

"Hu Shang Dharma Assembly...Xie Huizhai?"

Walking on the mountain road.

I remembered Shen Yuanzhi's words during the alchemy process.

Chen Heng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he couldn't help but think in his heart.

Shuiyundan just adds to the head.

What happened today was not just about Shuiyundan, but about Xie Huizhai and his wine tasting ceremony...

Xie Huizhai planned to hold a large-scale ceremony in Changying Courtyard to entertain many of his fellow disciples, enjoy flowers and talk about mysteries together, which had already spread throughout the four courtyards.

There is no need to mention it in the family, they must be happy to agree.

The so-called chanting to see the clouds is better than shooting and playing with willow trees. This is an elegant thing.

Xie Huizhai and Xie Tang were members of the same 12th generation clan as them.

Since you are invited.

Then there is absolutely no reason to refute his face or live up to his good intentions.

However, people like Chen Heng, who did not have a deep relationship with the family, or even had a grudge, did not pay much attention to Xie Huizhai's pot and wine ceremony.

The relationship between the sect and the family has been tense recently, and it is no longer as harmonious as it was a thousand years ago.

Open disputes are rare.

But there is no shortage of secret fights.

It seems that they have heard about this rumor.

but.

Listen to the meaning of Shen Yuanzhi's words...

"Xie Huizhai and Xie Tang are organizing a large pot and wine ceremony at this time. Is it to ease the atmosphere between the sect and the world, at least among the younger monks? This is not only the tacit consent of the sect, but the world is also happy to see it. Yes, I am willing to facilitate this matter..."

Chen Heng frowned:

"As for me, who is the 'Crown of the Four Courts', if I don't go forward and am noticed by interested people and used to make a fuss, there is no guarantee that other suspicions will not arise? The meaning behind Master Shen's words is that he is also trying to persuade me to attend the banquet. …

But it's funny to think about it like this. "

Now that they have signed a legal contract with Jiang Daolian, the two of them are barely in the same boat.

Or maybe she guessed Chen Heng's purpose of becoming famous in order to protect himself from the invitation to the war.

Jiang Daolian, with a lot of momentum behind his back, inexplicably gave Chen Heng the title of "Crown of the Four Academies", putting him on the same level as Deng Ji, Xie Su, and Sima Quantong from the other three academies.

After this matter spread.

Chen Heng was surprised at first, but also felt slightly amused.

But with such a prominent name, there are also troubles that follow.

For example, today’s so-called Hushang Dharma Assembly.

Chen Heng really didn't expect it.

Whether he attends it or not, does it matter to the faction?

Recalling the embarrassing situation he was in when Hou Wen first brought him to Xiaoming Daze.

Take another look at today.

Even with his Qi-nurturing skills, he was filled with emotions and thoughts.

He shook his head slightly, and just as he was about to leave with the light, he caught a glimpse of a turbid light from the corner of his eye, rushing towards him from the sky.

In that turbid light, there was a vaguely familiar figure.

Chen Heng simply stopped where he was. After a few breaths, the turbid light descended from the clouds and stopped beside him. Only then did Tu Shange's figure slowly appear in it.

"Is it possible that fellow Taoist Tushan was rejected and returned without success?"

Chen Heng was not surprised and smiled.

"Sir, the person who wants to invite you to Chaoyuan Peak where she lives tells you that she has important matters to discuss with you."

Tu Shange smiled awkwardly and whispered.

"Now?"

"Exactly, exactly."

Tushange responded one after another.

Chen Heng made some calculations in his mind. After a few breaths, he nodded to Tushange, waved his sleeves, and rushed straight to the sky. In an instant, he disappeared into the mist and clouds.

Not long after, he caught the light at Lingyin Peak, entered the quiet room where he practiced in seclusion, raised his finger to a point on the wall on the left, and recited a spell in his mouth.

Then a brilliant light suddenly appeared, like mist or clouds, and Chen Heng was instantly involved in it.

This wall is not a special object. It is called "Yifangzhangtu" and is a secret weapon hidden by the Jiang family.

"Shifting Chapter Diagram" is divided into two scrolls, Yin and Yang. If it is refined, anyone holding the Yang scroll can use this scroll to move to the side of the holder of the Yin scroll as long as it is within the range of a thousand miles. , in an instant, he was thousands of miles away.

And vice versa.

Those who hold the Yin Scroll can also do this.

It’s amazing and extremely convenient!

After being caught up in that ray of light, Chen Heng's vision became dim for a moment, and he couldn't distinguish anything, nor could he distinguish between north, south, west, and east.

But not for long.

His vision suddenly lit up, and he was already in an exquisite cottage.

A picture of a dragon eating an elephant hangs impressively on the screen behind it.

Both the dragon and the elephant are in black and white, flowing freely and uninhibitedly. The ferocious and vicious energy in them comes out through the paper, as if it wants to choose people and devour them!

"I've met Chen Langjun."

When the maid in colorful clothes who was guarding outside the hut saw Chen Heng's appearance, she quickly bowed and saluted with a very respectful expression.

"Why is it here?"

Chen Heng looked around and said.

This "Shifting Chapter Diagram" is not an immovable, rigid and dead thing, but can be combined with other things at will.

For example, Chen Heng refined the Yang Scroll into the white wall of the quiet room.

If you want to use it, you only need to pinch a spell to move your body.

And Jiang Daolian also refined the Yin Scroll into the wall.

In the past, Chen Heng always appeared in her inner palace.

This time it was actually a different realm, which made him slightly curious, so he asked casually.

"My girl said that men and women should not be intimate with each other. They should be placed in the inner hall, such as the boudoir, so that you can come and go as you please. I'm afraid it won't sound good."

The maid in colorful clothes couldn't help covering her lips when she heard this, and smiled softly:

"So, my girl moved her penis somewhere and placed it here..."

"It's understandable."

Chen Heng smiled and said:

"Take me to see her."

"Wait a minute, Mr. Chen, please wait a moment. My girl is meeting a foreigner. If Mr. Chen comes forward, I'm afraid the foreigner will break the relationship between you and my girl."

The maid said: "My girl specially asked me to apologize to my husband. Today, the foreigner suddenly came to visit after Tu Shange left. She did not expect it."

"A foreigner? Who is he?"

Chen Heng stopped and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"That foreigner is a member of the Qiao family in Mishan, Xiao Qiao and Qiao Rui."

The waitress explained:

"Xiao Qiao is also a disciple of Yuchen, and is currently practicing in Baishang lower courtyard. It seems that she and Lang Jun are the same disciples."
