The secret realm of Su Xin.
Ever since Yun Shu and her group fell on Ten Thousand Immortals Island nine years ago, the senior elders of Suxin Palace have not been able to spend a single day of peace of mind.
These people all thought that Yun Shu and others had offended some powerful person and were killed outside in one breath.
As a result, even though they were staying in the secret realm, these elders were always on guard, fearing that the most powerful man would follow them into the secret realm.
Until today, these elders secretly breathed a sigh of relief after waiting for the 'most powerful person' who had been waiting for a long time. They felt that the man might not have found the entrance to the secret realm, so they escaped.
So, under the chairmanship of the second elder Yun Lan, the remaining eight elders held an elders meeting.
Speaking of which, this Su Xin Palace is really powerful. Seven powerful fusion warriors died in Ten Thousand Immortals Island at one time, and two more were killed in Fire Phoenix Tomb. At this time, there are actually eight of them.
Although the one with the highest cultivation level is only the second elder Yun Lan, whose cultivation level is the bottleneck in the middle stage of the integration, but in terms of quantity, it is quite terrifying.
At least in terms of quantity, Mingxin Sword Palace is not as good as Suxin Palace. Because there are only ten elders in the Mingxin Sword Palace.
After a period of discussion among the remaining eight elders of Suxin Palace, as expected, the former second elder took over the position of palace master.
As for the remaining seven elders, they were pushed forward one by one to form a new group of elders, but their overall strength was more than one and a half points worse than before.
"Palace Master, now that all the disciples' soul cards have been destroyed, in my opinion, we still need to rebuild the soul chamber as soon as possible." At this time, the new great elder suddenly looked at Yun Lan and said.
Hearing this, many people nodded secretly.
Yun Lan shook her head and said: "This matter is not urgent. Our Suxin Palace is different from the sects outside. Even without the soul card, these disciples cannot defect."
"What's more, making a soul card is very complicated. No one here can make it. We can only ask fellow Taoists from Yunwu Valley to do it. Judging from the current situation, it is still not suitable for us to leave the secret realm, in case we are targeted by someone. , but it’s troublesome..."
"Indeed, although it has been nine years now, we still don't know what is going on outside. I also think it would be more appropriate to wait for a few more years and wait until the news has passed before going out." The second elder immediately agreed.
"The palace master is still thoughtful, but I am negligent."
"Yeah yeah."
Hearing this, everyone agreed.
At this time, the silent new seventh elder suddenly said: "Palace Master, regarding the changes in my Suxin Palace, I think it is better to ask heaven to hear it as soon as possible. The best way is to report it to Patriarch Tong Suqing."
This seventh elder is actually the original thirteenth elder Yunzhen, the master of Jingxiu.
Because he returned to Suxin Palace early, he was lucky enough to escape the disaster.
As soon as this was said, except for the Sixth Elder who agreed, everyone else was speechless.
Yun Lan shook her head and sighed, and explained: "Elder Liu Qi, you were ranked outside the Nine Numbers before, and you don't know much about the matter of asking Heaven to listen."
"Let me tell you now, asking Tianting to do it is not as simple as you think. The most basic point is that nine strong men are needed to jointly activate the Tianshuo Jian."
"Now, even if you include me, there are only eight people. How can we ask God to listen?"
So that's it.
After hearing Yun Lan's explanation, Yun Zhen and the sixth elder realized that it was not that Yun Lan was unwilling to report the matter to the Immortal City, but that there was simply no way around it.
...
Vientiane Island.
After Jianpi and Mingyue got the elixir, they began to retreat for digestion. Chan Bao became bored again, and finally returned to the medicine garden and began to absorb the Ancestral Dragon Demon Pill.
The energy of the demon pill is really rich enough. It has raised Chan Bao's strength to the mid-stage integration level, and it doesn't even seem to consume much.
I really don’t know how far Chan Bao can grow after refining the entire inner elixir.
Of course, others cannot envy this kind of thing, because other people simply cannot absorb the Tao aggregates and energy above. Lu Li also tried it. After taking a lick, the effect was not unsatisfactory for a long time, and it made him vomit for a day and a night.
From then on, Lu Li had no idea about this demon pill.
Lu Li did not go to Tang Fei. He spent all day practicing the Way of Wood in the jungle at the back of the mountain. In addition to meditating, he sometimes made some strange movements.
For example, holding a wooden branch in a daze and staring at it for most of the day; or staring at a piece of grass and being unable to move your eyes away for a long time...etc.
Although the results were minimal, Lu Li discovered that doing so was not ineffective. After a few days, he found that he had some special understanding of the way of wood.
I don't know if he happened to realize it, but one of the avenue chains on his Wooden Dao Seed showed some signs of loosening, which made Lu Li secretly happy.
I became more and more obsessed with this way of understanding.
It seems that in addition to the assistance of innate rare treasures, this side way of enlightenment can also deepen the understanding of the great road and help people break through bottlenecks faster.
"Master, what are you...doing?"
On this day, Lu Li was holding a branch and chewing on it, when a startled voice suddenly came from behind him.
Upon hearing this, Lu Li threw the branch to the ground and slowly stood up: "It's Ah Fei, why are you here."
The person who came was a cold and resolute young man with waterfall-like black hair, none other than Tang Fei.
Hearing this, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Uncle Master came to see me yesterday, and I knew that Master you were back, so I came here to see you."
Lu Li patted the dust on his hands, walked to the fallen dead tree next to him, sat down, and looked at Tang Fei: "Not bad, this is the middle stage of distraction."
Then he pointed to the branch next to him: "Sit down."
"Yes, master."
Tang Fei bowed respectfully and sat down on the branch upright.
Lu Li smiled hoarsely: "You're not an outsider, why are you so reserved?"
Tang Fei scratched his head and laughed dryly: "The aura on the master's body is getting more and more terrifying, and the apprentice feels extremely nervous..."
"Oh, I forgot about it."
Lu Li nodded suddenly, then his breath calmed down and he became as ordinary as a mortal. He asked casually: "How are you doing in Shadow Tower recently? Did you encounter any difficulties?"
"It's pretty good, there's no difficulty. A few years ago, the Three Soul Chasing Buildings in the North suddenly disappeared. We took advantage of the situation and set up three branches in the north. The current profits are good, and the overall comprehensive strength is also steadily improving... "
As Tang Fei spoke, he suddenly thought of something: "By the way, master, do you know about the Jinghong Sword Sect?"
"Jinghong Sword Sect? What's going on?" Lu Li asked confused.
"That's right. After our investigation, we learned that the reason why you leaked the news was entirely because Fu Qingchuan and his son leaked the news to Qu Xinghe. In addition, the cause of Yue Chenfeng's death was actually suicide..." Tang Fei truthfully told Lu Li the results of his investigations over the years.
"Suicide?" Lu Li was greatly surprised. He thought about countless possibilities, but never thought it would be suicide.
"Yes, suicide. Two Tianjian Pavilion elders survived at that time. Later we found one of them. Under coercion and inducement, he finally told the true story..."
After Tang Fei finished speaking, he looked at Lu Li who was thoughtful and asked tentatively: "Master, what do you think is a more appropriate way to deal with the Jinghong Sword Sect?"
