The woman outside the room secretly looked at Zhao Chun. Seeing that the aura around her body was harmonious, it was obvious that she had reached the realm of Fenxuan Dzogchen. The purpose of coming to Yingluo City should be the same as other monks. Thinking of this, she became a little kinder and said : "Seeing that my fellow Taoist has extraordinary cultivation and is only one step away from the real person Guihe, I must have come to Yingluo City for the energy of the earth veins."
While speaking, Zhao Chun was also looking at this person. He seemed heroic and straightforward, but he didn't look like a person without any calculation. He looked more like a person who had been traveling for many years and had a plan in mind. His cultivation level was not bad at all. , the breath is condensed, presumably because it has been in Fenxuan Dzogchen for a few years and the foundation has been polished from time to time.
"If you haven't obtained one of the five qi, how can you talk about achieving the combination? Friend Taoist is ridiculous," Zhao Chun shook his head slightly and said, "But I really came here for the qi of the earth veins. I don't know what my friend can give me."
When the woman heard this, she felt even more amused. Her eyes lit up and she said, "I can't give you advice, but there are some things I would like to discuss with my fellow Taoist." She took a step back, stretched out her hand to lead downstairs, and could see along the corridor of the hotel corridor. The hall was almost full of monks. Three, five, or seven or eight people gathered around a table, and there was a buzz of people.
"please!"
Zhao Shun stepped out and followed the well-dressed woman downstairs. At this time, the two exchanged names and found out that the other person's surname was Lu, with the same character as Xiu.
When Lu Xiu heard Zhao Chun's name, he smiled happily and joked: "If we hadn't met him in the inn, he would have thought that Taoist friend was from the Zhao family in Yingluo City."
"Pindao is not a member of the family." Zhao Shun smiled slightly and shook his head, and immediately saw Lu Xiu's expression becoming even more happy.
"Looking at fellow Taoist, you don't look like a casual cultivator. You are not from a cultivation family, but you are just a disciple of the sect who went out to practice." She clenched her fists and pounded her palms, and said with a smile, "We are also from the sect. Coming out to practice is exactly the same as fellow Taoists."
Zhao Chun knew from this that Lu Xiu was not alone. After questioning, he found out that she had visited Yingluo City twice because of the earth energy in Anhe River, and this was her third visit. , if you can't get the energy of the earth veins anymore, you have to wait for another three years.
"The underground rivers in the rest of the world are controlled by sect forces. If foreign monks want to enter them, it is not as easy as in Yingluo City." Lu Xiu sighed deeply and frowned, "But Yingluo City can only enter It's simple among them, it's said that two hundred places were sold to outsiders, but the two times I went there before, the number of monks who came in was twice that number."
She then asked again: "Is this the first time that Fellow Daoist Zhao has come back to Yingluo City?"
Zhao Chun nodded in response, and saw Lu Xiu purse her lips and smile without surprise: "That's no wonder, only people like Zhao Daoyou who are here for the first time can sit down in the room with peace of mind. The five major families are powerful, but we are not I don’t dare to wait until the underground river opens and enter it alone.”
It turns out that what Zhao Chun thought was true, the five major families in Yingluo City would not sit back and watch the outside monks harvest the energy of the earth. They would also send their family members to come together to compete with the outside monks for the spiritual objects, and the children of each family would They naturally unite in one place and exclude outsiders, resulting in many people dying in the underground river every time they search for energy. Over time, because foreign monks did not want to fall into single combat, it became an established rule to form groups with each other.
"I'm afraid you don't know, fellow Taoist Zhao, that a disciple of the sect who has no experience like you and is coming here for the first time is no different from a lamb in the eyes of others." When Lu Xiu said this, his expression was slightly embarrassed, which showed that he was also Among them, those who have suffered a loss are: "The five major families only sold quotas, but did not tell me and other outsiders that many potholes had collapsed in the underground river. The terrain was very complicated, and there were even monsters sneaking into the river. Newcomers, not to mention fighting for it, The energy of the earth's veins, I'm afraid I can't even find this thing!
"This is why I'm here to find Taoist friends to form a team. I just hope that when the time comes, I can join them and be able to help each other."
It was only after this conversation that Zhao Chun realized that there were hidden secrets in it. In terms of strength, she was naturally not afraid of others. However, the terrain in the Dark River was complicated, so it would be best if someone could guide her.
There were many monks in the lobby of the inn, but the appearance of Zhao Chun did not attract anyone's attention. Lu Xiu walked with her to the southeast table, only to see three people already sitting at the table.
On the left is a handsome young man, with a white robe and a jade crown, and handsome features. He seems to have a good relationship with Lu Xiu. When he sees him approaching, he immediately smiles: "Senior sister is back, who is this?"
Lu Xiu then led Zhao Chun to him and introduced him: "This is Zhao Chun, fellow Taoist Zhao, who, like us, is also someone who is preparing to explore the underground river outside the city.
"Fellow Daoist Zhao, this is my junior fellow apprentice in the lower sect. His name is Lin Zhibei."
The young man quickly handed over his hands and said very kindly, "Fellow Taoist, you are polite!"
Zhao Chun also saluted back and turned sideways to see the other two monks at the table standing up at this moment. A man and a woman were wearing a beautiful pair.
"These two are Fellow Daoist Dong Qingshan and Fellow Daoist Lu Xiaoran. I believe Fellow Daoist Zhao can also see that the two have a deep love and are a Taoist couple.
Hearing Lu Xiu's joke, both of them couldn't help but blush, and muttered: "Fellow Taoist, you are polite."
After some introductions, everyone sat down together. Except for Dong and Lu, who were both casual cultivators, Lu Xiu and Zhao Chun were both disciples of the sect. The first two were disciples of Bixin Palace, a human-level sect. disciple. According to the rules of the ten or less righteous sects of the Great Thousand World, their sects are divided into three levels of heaven, earth, and human beings. The Bixin Palace is located at the human level, which means that the highest combat power of the sect is the Venerable External Transformation.
Therefore, when several people in the audience heard that Zhao Shun was born in Zhaoyan, they were all shocked and said: "It turns out that fellow Taoist is a high disciple of the Immortal Sect. How disrespectful and disrespectful!"
However, they had already heard that the major sects of the Immortal Sect all had profound foundations, and only Zhenren Guihe could officially enter. They thought that Zhao Chun was still a preparatory disciple, looking for the energy of the earth veins in order to break through Guihe and enter as soon as possible. inner door. But even so, having the name Zhaoyan is already much better than others. Therefore, Lu Xiu and others did not dare to look down upon Zhao Chun, and even looked up to him.
"It's easy to take a picture of the place in the Underwater River. Since we are sitting here, we must have prepared enough money to come, so I won't say more here."
Lu Xiu nodded slightly and said: "Among us, fellow Taoist friends Zhibei and Zhao are coming to Yingluo City for the first time. Fellow Taoist friends Dong and Lu have been here once before, and I have experienced it twice more. Ask yourself what's right We have some understanding of the Underwater River area, so we have agreed in advance that I will guide you all when we enter. There will be a lot of fighting in the Underground River, so if it is not necessary, we should stay together and not separate."
When everyone heard this, they had no objection and nodded in agreement.
