late at night.
The silver moon is like a disk, hanging high in the sky, and the moonlight covers the entire royal city like a gauze tent.
Many people have fallen asleep, but there is still a faint light in a courtyard of the Yushi Mansion.
This is Chu Feng's courtyard. Chu Feng has not yet fallen asleep and is still practicing hard for the uncertain future.
call.
After a while, Chu Feng let out a breath of turbid air, slowly opened his eyes, and woke up from his practice.
"I feel like my strength is still not enough."
"If you want to open the mysterious black box left by the Evil Dragon, the former leader of the Evil Cult, you must use a ray of soul from the current leader of the Evil Cult, Xie Sanxiao, and this Xie Sanxiao is a powerful reincarnation. If you want to obtain A ray of his soul will have a life-and-death fight."
"In addition to the leader of the Evil Sect, there is also the mysterious leader of the Heavenly Demon Alliance. I took his soul-suppressing bell. One day, he will definitely come to settle accounts with me. This person has immortal eyes, and he is not a good person."
"Leave aside the people on this continent, I still have unknown enemies in the Immortal Meteor Continent."
"The Immortal-killing Broken Sword that the Master of the Sun-Moon Mansion obtained after nearly nine deaths is in my hand. This is a time bomb. When the people of the Sun-Moon Mansion can cross the vast sea and come here, they will probably cause trouble for me."
"Although I have placed the Immortal Killing Broken Sword in the system storage room and it is almost impossible for anyone to discover it, we must not forget that the Sun and Moon Mansion is one of the top ten transcendent forces in the Immortal Meteor Continent. With their Using this method, it won’t be particularly difficult to find the location of the Immortal Killing Broken Sword.”
Chu Feng suddenly discovered that although he was low-key, he had many opponents unknowingly.
If these opponents were of average strength, then forget it, but each of these opponents was stronger than the last.
Life is hard!
"Sure enough, low-key development is the way to go. My strength is still a bit weak."
Chu Feng secretly warned himself not to provoke too powerful opponents in the future.
While Chu Feng was sighing, the jade slip around his waist shook slightly.
Chu Feng used the seal method and opened the jade slip. After a while, the tall silhouette of the steward of the Yuheng Palace of the Shushan Sword Sect appeared above the jade slip.
"Manager Wang?"
Chu Feng didn't expect that Manager Wang was looking for him, so he felt a little surprised.
"Manager Wang, are you looking for me? Could it be that there is news about Diyanguo?"
Last time, Chu Feng asked Manager Wang of Yuheng Palace to help him keep an eye on the news about Di Yanguo.
Manager Wang stared at Chu Feng with his hooked autumn eyes for a long time, and then said slowly: "Elder Chu, there is no news about the Earth Flame Fruit, but we have discovered several places with underground magma. I believe There will be news soon."
Although it was not news about Earth Flame Fruit, Chu Feng still nodded with satisfaction when he heard the news.
Earth Flame Fruit grows in magma, so finding several underground magma is also good news.
"Then please ask Manager Wang to contact me after you have the news about Di Yanguo."
Chu Feng smiled slightly.
"Um."
Manager Wang nodded in response.
Suddenly he remembered something and said, "Elder Chu, I wonder when you will join the Shushan Sword Sect?"
"It will still take some time. What's wrong? Has anything happened to the Shushan Sword Sect?"
Chu Feng asked.
"To be honest with Elder Chu, the spiritual energy of the Shushan Sword Sect has become much stronger recently than before, which is very beneficial to cultivation."
"I don't know if it's my imagination, but the aura over there at the Demon Locking Tower seems to be particularly strong."
Manager Wang said thoughtfully.
Um?
Is the spiritual energy at the Demon Locking Tower particularly strong?
Could it be that something happened over there?
Thinking of this, Chu Feng immediately asked: "Manager Wang, what happened at the Demon Locking Tower?"
"This doesn't seem to exist."
"Elder Chu, your apprentice, Elder Feng Qingchen, is not here. You can ask Elder Feng Qingchen about the situation in the Demon Locking Tower."
Manager Wang said.
"Okay, then Manager Wang, let's talk about this first today."
"Well, I will inform Elder Chu about the news about the Earth Flame Fruit."
Soon, Chu Feng ended his contact with Manager Wang, and then used his seal method to contact Feng Qingchen.
Not to mention, after not seeing Feng Qingchen for a while, Chu Feng still missed Feng Qingchen a little. Of course, this was a pure caring relationship between master and disciple, not mixed with other emotions.
Three breaths later, Feng Qingchen's figure appeared in the jade slip.
When she saw Chu Feng, she was slightly startled, and then shouted sweetly, "Master."
"Well, Qingchen, have you been lazy during the days when I was away?"
Chu Feng asked.
"Master, I don't dare to delay my cultivation for a day. Just now, I successfully broke through the peak of the middle stage of Yuanying and reached the late stage of Yuanying. I wanted to share the joy of breakthrough with Master right away, but I didn't know that Master would immediately share it with Master. I got in touch.”
Feng Qingchen smiled.
"It has broken through to the late Nascent Soul stage, not bad."
"It seems that you were not lazy during the days when I was away from the Demon Locking Tower."
Chu Feng also nodded with relief.
Feng Qingchen is his apprentice. If his apprentice makes a breakthrough, he, as a master, will naturally be happy.
"By the way, Master, when will you return to Shushan Sword Sect?"
Feng Qingchen asked curiously.
"I'm afraid this will take some time."
Chu Feng has no plans to return to the Shushan Sword Sect yet. Of course, if something happens to the Shushan Sword Sect or there is any crisis, Chu Feng will definitely shrink to an inch and rush back to Shushan for rescue.
"By the way, Qing Chen, this is how I'm looking for you this time..."
Chu Feng repeated what Manager Wang just said.
"Qing Chen, is the spiritual energy near the Demon Locking Tower really richer than the spiritual energy in other places of the Shushan Sword Sect?"
Chu Feng asked.
"Master, it seems like this."
Feng Qingchen nodded thoughtfully.
"Qing Chen, did something happen near the Demon Locking Tower?"
"Otherwise, why would the spiritual energy be richer than other places in the Shushan Sword Sect?"
Logically speaking, the aura of the Demon Locking Tower is stronger than that of other places in the Shushan Sword Sect, which should be considered a happy thing. After all, the Demon Locking Tower is where Chu Feng and Feng Qingchen live.
The spiritual energy is rich, which is naturally good for their future cultivation.
But Chu Feng vaguely felt that this was not a good thing.
He believes that there is never a free lunch in the world.
Gaining something means losing something else.
Of course, this is just Chu Feng's guess, and he may not really lose anything.
"misfortune?"
Feng Qingchen was stunned for a moment, and then looked thoughtful.
After a while, she said slowly: "Master, there seems to be nothing happening near the Demon Locking Tower... except for a strange tree growing on the mountain behind the Demon Locking Tower."
"A strange tree?"
Chu Feng was stunned for a moment, and then became thoughtful.
After a while, Chu Feng remembered that he had seen a gray bud in the dense jungle behind the Demon Locking Tower. The gray bud was surrounded by gray light, which was quite extraordinary.
Could it be that gray bud that grew into a big tree?
"Qing Chen, is that strange tree you mentioned gray and surrounded by gray light?"
Chu Feng probed.
"Um?"
"Master, if you are not on the mountain behind the Demon Locking Tower, how do you know that the tree is gray and that there is gray light surrounding the tree?"
Feng Qingchen blinked her beautiful eyes and said curiously.
"Before I went down the mountain, I saw a strange gray bud on the mountain behind the Demon Locking Tower. The bud was surrounded by gray light, so I guess that the strange tree you mentioned was grown from that gray bud. .”
Chu Feng explained.
He remembered that when he was practicing, the mysterious leader of the Heavenly Demon Alliance called him from a distance. In his words, he mentioned fairy seeds and demon seeds. Out of curiosity, Chu Feng buried one of the seeds in the back mountain. , but after a few days, the seed did not germinate, but a gray bud grew not far from the seed.
"So that's it."
Feng Qingchen suddenly realized.
"Qing Chen, show me that strange gray tree."
"good."
Feng Qingchen took the jade slip and entered the mountain behind the Demon Locking Tower. After a while, Chu Feng saw the gray tree.
This gray tree is not very huge, only two feet high, but there are gray lights surrounding the gray tree. Through the moonlight, Chu Feng can see some patterns on the gray tree.
The designs include a scaly body, a thick tail, and furry arms...
Although the patterns are different, they all have one thing in common, that is, they are incomplete.
There are many patterns on the ash tree, but no pattern is complete.
"What kind of tree is this?"
Chu Feng looked confused.
At this moment, Feng Qingchen suddenly let out a sigh, "Why is there a pattern on this ash tree? It wasn't there two days ago."
"Qing Chen, is the aura around this gray tree the richest in the entire Demon Locking Tower?"
Chu Feng asked.
"Master, this is not very clear. I am of low strength and cannot detect the difference between the aura around this gray tree and the aura in other parts of the Demon Locking Tower. Maybe if Master is here, I can tell the difference."
Feng Qingchen shook his head and said.
Although Feng Qingchen is now a monk in the late Nascent Soul stage and is very strong in the eyes of ordinary people, she is not strong enough to distinguish such subtle differences in spiritual energy.
"Too."
Chu Feng nodded.
Compared with himself, Feng Qingchen's strength is indeed weaker, and it is normal to be unable to distinguish subtle differences in spiritual energy.
"Qing Chen, have you told the headmaster about this gray tree?"
"not yet."
"Then tell the master about this gray tree tomorrow. The master is well-informed and may know the origin of this gray tree."
"Um."
Next, Chu Feng chatted with Feng Qingchen for a few words, and by the way, he gave some guidance on the problems Feng Qingchen encountered in his recent cultivation, and then ended the contact.
After ending the contact, Chu Feng did not take a rest immediately. Instead, he sat on a mahogany chair and looked at the stars outside the window with a thoughtful expression.
He was thinking about why the spiritual energy of this world suddenly became stronger than before.
Could it be because of that gray tree?
For some reason, Chu Feng connected the reason why the spiritual energy of this area became so rich with that gray tree.
Although Chu Feng has no evidence to prove that there is a direct relationship between the two, Chu Feng feels that it is very likely.
Although women’s sixth sense is very keen, men’s is not bad either.
…
And at this time.
Heavenly Demon Alliance.
After the Sky Demon Emperor led the demons of the Sky Demon Alliance to attack the Shushan Sword Sect and were killed, the remaining demons of the Sky Demon Alliance scattered and left this force that had been with them for a long time.
Because no one paid attention to the Sky Demon League, the originally clean and tidy gate of the Sky Demon League had long been covered with weeds and a few scattered gravels. As for the plaque with the words Sky Demon League engraved on it, it was also full of grass. Dust, and cobwebs.
Falling yellow leaves filled the entire front hall of the Sky Demon Alliance.
Here, it can be said to be lifeless.
boom!
But at this moment, a powerful wave of spiritual energy rushed out from the secret room of the Sky Demon Alliance. Wherever the powerful spiritual energy passed, whether it was withered leaves or dusty tables and chairs, they were all crushed into pieces. ...
