"Finally, the errand came."
In the clean room of the practice, Chu Chen played with the [Human Letter Seal] with a faint smile on his face. He has been at home these past few days, and he has not been idle. He planned to use [Thunder Essence] to warm up various magic weapon-level divine seals.
Who would have thought that while meditating on the [Heavenly Essence Spiritual Weapon Art] while distracted, I would gain something unexpected. While he was deducing the art of war and comprehending the power of arranging troops and summoning the heaven and earth, he occasionally had an enlightenment and realized some of the essence of "humanity" among the three talents of "heaven, earth and man", and then he sacrificed and refined the fifth-grade [Human Faith Seal] in one fell swoop. It becomes a magic weapon-level "Dharma Seal".
Among the "Twelve Seals of Heavenly Essence Spiritual Inscriptions", the three seals of "Heaven, Earth and Man" are the most important and are the core of the twelve divine seals.
[Human Letter Seal] has group "finger transformation", group invisibility, group change, group disguise and other magical powers, which make the military formation ever-changing and unpredictable, adding wings to a tiger, which is extremely important.
Because of this, he immediately used all the remaining [Thunder Essence] to warm and nourish the [Human Letter Seal] that had just been upgraded to a magic weapon.
In just one or two days, the spiritual power of [Human Letter Seal] is equivalent to two years of normal nourishment of Divine Seal. This made him quite satisfied and saved him a lot of hard work.
"No wonder Frog God Jin Lan is so obsessed with [Thunder Essence], he is indeed a good treasure."
Chu Chen is looking forward to the next invitation from the frog god Jin Lan.
In addition to the unexpected gains from the [Human Letter Seal], Chu Chen also did not forget to help his three ghost generals refine the [Innate Shape Transformation Qi] to break through to the fourth-level divine generals.
After a few days, the results came out.
Two ghost generals successfully gave birth to "primordial spirits", summoned the original Dao Qi of the flying god generals, broke through to the fourth level of god generals, and gained the cultivation level of a great god channel.
As for the other ghost general, he failed and failed to break through successfully.
After the failure, the ghost general felt quite ashamed and immediately apologized to Chu Chen for letting him down.
Chu Chen didn't have much opinion on this.
It was normal for the breakthrough to fail. He had expected it and was not too disappointed. On the contrary, I am happy that two ghost generals have broken through to the fourth level of divine generals.
Two more fourth-grade flying generals were added.
His military and horse powers have reached a new level.
"Senior brother, are you okay? You're alive now. I'm exhausted from staying at home every day."
"coming."
Chu Chen put the [Human Letter Seal] in his sleeve and stood up to go out. He didn't feel excited at all, his expression was as usual.
In fact, after Han Chen learned about Li Bu's situation a few days ago, he contacted him immediately and said that he could help him transfer to a department to prevent him from being unhappy with his stay in Li Bu.
However, Chu Chen didn't think much about it and declined.
Taoist Feilong, the deputy minister, has not shown any hostility at the moment. Although the proposal at the high-level retreat meeting is suspected of "seeking personal gain," it is generally reasonable and reasonable, and Chu Chen can't find anything wrong with it.
If he were Master Huixin, he would probably agree to the proposal.
To take a step back, even if Taoist Feilong targets him, he will not just transfer him away.
Taoist Feilong is only the second-in-command. There is Master Huixin, the top-ranking one, and there is also a deputy minister, Konggu Shanren, who cannot cover the sky with one hand.
For example, when it comes to errand arrangements, Master Huixin has the main decision-making power.
Even if part of the decision-making power is delegated, it will be to the two deputy ministers, rather than to Taoist Feilong having the final say.
Today, the person who summoned Chu Chen was the deputy minister of Libu, a native of Konggushan.
Libu left courtyard, study room.
"Fellow Daoist Chu, please sit down!"
The figure of the Konggu Mountain Man is similar to that of the Jiuqiu Mountain Man, with a heavy back and muscular body, no hair on the top of his head, and a shiny bald head, which makes him look even more powerful. The whole person is like a ferocious humanoid beast, which is intimidating.
Even when he smiles, he feels "strong and domineering".
"I've met fellow Taoist Kong Gu."
Chu Chen was not polite and sat down next to Konggu Shanren, appearing very skillful.
In fact, in the past few days, he did not stay in the cave all day long to cultivate. He would go to Libu Dianmao every day. He only returned to his cave after learning that there was no errand.
At this
During the process, he did not forget to move.
Speaking of it, it can be regarded as fate. Konggu Shanren is the direct lineage master uncle of Jiuqiu Shanren.
After Chu Chen mentioned the past, the relationship between the two suddenly became closer.
This can also be regarded as "running in both directions."
Even if Feilong Taoist and the two deputy ministers of the Li Department were not targeting him, they would not think of him differently. He didn't need to think too much. They must be close to the Konggu Mountain people.
As a weak deputy minister, Konggushan people saw that Chu Chen took the initiative to visit him, so he naturally wanted it.
Especially when Konggu Shanren read Chu Chen's resume, he was pleasantly surprised and shocked. Chu Chen's resume is extremely rich. He started as a nine-level candidate for immortal officials, from the grassroots county ghosts and gods secretary to the county governor, the director of the county ghosts and gods department, the county governor, and the prefecture governor. He also served as the mountain chief of the Taoist Academy and the county supervisor. , Zhou Zuo Deputy Supervisor...
The performance evaluation of each term was excellent, many of which were top-notch. During his tenure, he made countless meritorious services, including state notification awards, eight state awards and other major achievements.
From his resume, it is not difficult to see that this is an immortal official with extremely outstanding abilities.
Of course, what surprised him even more was that Chu Chen was so young that he envied him and had terrifying cultivation talent.
It only took ten years to go from being a Taoist boy to becoming a great supernatural power. Four years after reaching the realm of great supernatural powers, his Taoist cultivation reached the middle stage of the fourth level, and he had a strong record of killing monsters with great supernatural powers. His talent for cultivation is so high and his Taoist and supernatural powers are so powerful that it is jaw-dropping.
The people of Konggu Mountain are used to seeing the so-called geniuses. He himself was also a sensational genius in the past. However, he has only seen such an extremely talented person like Chu Chen in immortal biographies, and this is the first time he has witnessed it with his own eyes. , get acquainted.
Because of this, the people of Konggu Mountain welcomed Chu Chen's approach and tried their best to win over him. After a few pleasantries, Konggushanren got straight to the point and responded to Chu Chen's offer of refuge, saying: "Fellow Daoist Chu, I invite you to come over today. There is something I need you to go to. I wonder if you are free right now?"
Chu Chen was happy, of course he was free.
"Fellow Taoist Konggu, if you have anything to do, just ask."
The Konggu Mountain man nodded slightly and said:
"There is a Sanxiu family named Li in Yuezhou who cares deeply about the Celestial Empire. He has taken refuge in our Celestial Court in the early years. He has been working for the Celestial Empire privately, providing information, and has made a lot of contributions, which is quite rare." Chu Chen nodded, It is indeed quite rare.
Among the eight southwest states, Yunzhou, Cangzhou, Lanzhou, and Muzhou are close to the Great Nine States, and the Celestial Dynasty is relatively powerful. With its operations over the years, it has gradually taken a dominant position in the local area.
The other four more remote states, such as Yuezhou, are relatively weak and can barely defend themselves in the city. The situation is similar to the situation in Yunzhou six or seven years ago.
The Sanxiu family surnamed Li had already taken refuge in the Celestial Court, not because of circumstances, but sincerely. They were true compatriots of the Celestial Court and comrades in the Celestial Court.
Chu Chen frowned slightly:
"But the Li family is in trouble?"
"good!"
Konggushanren nodded and said: "Last night, the Li family sent a message to the Celestial Empire as usual, but the [Yin Book] and [Yin Talisman] were wrong and completely inconsistent. The Immortal Court suspected that the Li family was in trouble."
[Yin Shu Yin Fu] comes from the Military Book [Tai Gong's Six Tao]. Among them, "Dragon Tao - Yin Shu" and "Dragon Tao - Yin Fu" describe how kings and generals kept secret communications during war.
On the basis of "Tai Gong's Six Tao", the Celestial Dynasty established the "Yin Shu Yin Fu" system.
[Yin Shu] is a confidential communication document, and [Yin Talisman] is a password.
The Immortal Court of Heaven is very good at using the magical power of [Yin Shu Yin Talisman]. Under normal circumstances, there will be no mistakes.
If something goes wrong, the most likely source of the document is something happened to the Li family in Yuezhou.
"Fellow Taoist Konggu, do you mean to let me go to the Li family?"
"good!"
Taoist Konggu nodded and said: "The Li family has five masters of fifth-grade Taoist cultivation. Two of them are in the late fifth-grade. They have thousands of clansmen. They can be regarded as a medium-level cultivating force with quite good strength. Once they encounter trouble, things will definitely happen." It’s not small, and it’s very likely that it involves the level of a powerful person with great supernatural powers.”
"It's not convenient for Yuezhou to take action, Chu
Fellow Taoist, I heard that you are good at escaping. You might as well take a trip and see what happened to the Li family? "
The Li family is in the west of Yuezhou, three thousand miles away from Cangzhou.
Chu Chen did not call for the powerful tiger king to take his place, but only took the little devil and galloped away in the clouds and mist. In just over an hour, one person and one ghost arrived at Xiangfan Mountain.
Chu Chen used his escape technique and transformed into an old man, wearing a crane-feather cloak and a bamboo hat on his head. His face was full of the vicissitudes of time, and he had attained the fifth level of Dzogchen Taoism and cultivation. His eyes were half determined and half gloomy. Unwilling.
The realm of great supernatural powers is a natural chasm. Countless practitioners are trapped in this bottleneck. They waste two years and are ultimately doomed. Their Taoist cultivation will not advance but retreat, and the path to immortality will eventually be extinct. The "old man" transformed by Chu Chen who cultivates immortality is very common in the world of spiritual practice.
"Senior brother, Xiangfan Mountain has arrived. Where is the Li family?"
The little ghost boy held the map of Yuezhou and conveyed his voice with his spiritual consciousness.
"The Rogue Cultivator family, which is crawling around in the wilderness, has always been cunning, and the Celestial Empire does not know the specific location of the Li family."
"what is it now?"
Chu Chen smiled. Although the Celestial Empire did not know the specific location of the Li family, it did know the peripheral forces of the Li family.
Immediately, Chu Chen took the map of Yuezhou from the little ghost boy and pointed at the location marked "Jinchan Xiangfanfang City" in Xiangfan Mountain. Clouds formed under his feet and he rushed over.
As a casual cultivating force of the human race, the Li family, in addition to practicing Immortal Cultivation Techniques, is also very good at alchemy. They opened a shop in the market opened by Jinchan Palace and started a business of selling elixirs and refining elixirs on their behalf. Alchemists are very popular in the cultivation world, especially powerful alchemists.
This is even more true in the wilderness.
The Li family's alchemy skills were already good. After joining the Celestial Empire, they received various financial aids and their alchemy skills improved to a higher level.
Relying on their superb alchemy skills, the Li family has prospered in the Xiangfan Mountain area of Yuezhou in recent years and made a lot of money.
Of course, this is only one of the benefits of the Li family joining the Celestial Empire. There are countless other magical powers and so on.
Jinchanxiangfangui City, Guixiangdan Pavilion.
Chu Chen stood at the door of "Guixiangdan Pavilion" and secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw people coming and going in the shop.
Before coming, he and Konggu Shanren prepared for the worst case that the Li family would be killed.
"Guixiangdan Pavilion" is not closed now, which proves that the Li family's situation is not that bad. "I don't know what's going on with the Li family!"
Chu Chen couldn't help but feel curious, and immediately stepped into the Dan Pavilion.
"Senior, please invite me to the private room upstairs!"
The waiter in the shop had a very sharp eye and saw Chu Chen's "Fifth Grade Taoist Cultivation" at a glance, so he respectfully invited him upstairs.
Not long after, a middle-aged monk with a fifth-level Taoist training and dressed like the owner of the Dan Pavilion came to the private room, smiled and held his hand to Chu Chen:
"Welcome, fellow Taoist, my surname is Li, Shuangyao, as I am polite."
Chu Chen was overjoyed when he heard this. This Li Shuangyao was one of the five masters of the Li family.
Immediately, he stood up quickly, returned the gift with his hands, and an old voice rang out: "I heard that your Guixiang Dan Pavilion has superb alchemy skills, fair business, and is an innocent child. I came here because of your reputation. I want to ask your pavilion to help me refine [Guicang Dan". ], I wonder if that’s okay?”
Li Shuangyao was stunned when he heard this. [Guicang Dan] was not a real panacea, but a code word. "Guicang" is homophonic to "Guichang", which means returning to Dachang.
Li Shuangyao was overjoyed and said with a smile:
"This is a big deal, fellow Taoist. Let's discuss it in detail in the backyard."
Moving to change the scenery, not long after, the two of them came to the backyard side hall with dense restrictions.
Arriving at the secret place, Li Shuangyao stopped pretending. He was quite familiar with Chu Chen, whom he had never met before, and smiled loudly:
"Messenger, do you have something to say to the Immortal Court of Heaven?"
"There is nothing wrong with the Heavenly Court."
Chu Chen shook his head, feeling quite puzzled. Looking at Li Shuangyao's appearance, it didn't look like the Li family was in trouble.
As soon as he thought about this, Chu Chen's consciousness fell on Li Shuangyao. After some snooping, he saw that his eyes were clear and his aura was pure, with no evil spirit at all, and he felt calm.
His clone【五色
Menglong] seizes the body of the demon, and has the magical power to incarnate as the "Red Dragon Demon King". He is extremely sensitive to the demon seizing the body and the upper body of evil spirits.
Li Shuangyao's mere fifth-grade Taoist cultivation level could not escape his discernment at all.
Seeing that there was no problem with the Li family in front of him, he asked:
"Fellow Taoist Shuangyao, are your Li family in trouble?"
"Messenger, how did you know that our Li family is in trouble?"
Hearing this, Li Shuangyao looked shocked and explained in surprise:
"We did encounter a little trouble last night. The patriarch's practice went awry and he fell into the devil's trap. But everything is fine now. Messenger, what's wrong?"
"It doesn't matter! It's okay now."
When Chu Chen heard this, he looked suddenly enlightened.
If the head of the Li family encountered a demonic obstacle, then it would make sense.
Encountering a demonic obstacle and being contaminated by the evil spirit, the [Yin Shu Yin Talisman] will self-destruct and become disorganized in order to keep it secret.
Good guy, I unexpectedly encountered something wrong and my trip was in vain.
For a moment, Chu Chen had complicated thoughts, but overall he was still happy.
In Yuezhou, where the Celestial Dynasty does not have an absolute advantage, it is extremely rare for the Li family to have their hearts set on the Celestial Empire. It is good news that the Li family is fine.
After some pleasantries with Li Shuangyao, Chu Chen didn't stay long and went straight out of Guixiang Dan Pavilion. He can go back to the Demonic Academy for business.
"Senior brother, are we going back to the Demon Academy?"
On the streets of Fangshi, the little devil asked via voice transmission: "Don't you want to go to the Li family residence?"
"The Rogue Cultivator family is extremely taboo about where they are stationed, and they don't want others to inquire about it. Since things are right, we naturally don't want to offend others."
The kid nodded slightly, thoughtfully, with a look of hesitation in his eyes:
"Senior brother, I seem to see the aura of disaster in Li Shuangyao, but I can't see clearly. It's a bit weird."
Chu Chen's expression changed slightly when he heard this:
"Little devil, are you serious about this?"
