Cultivation in the city

Sitting in Zeng Fan's office, Chen Yan had already drank half a cup of tea, and he understood almost everything he should know.

"So, it's a bit like a secret realm." Chen Yan said in a low voice.

"Huh?" Zeng Fan didn't hear what Chen Yan said, and asked with some doubts.

"I mean the place you just mentioned is a bit similar to the secret place in the novel." Chen Yan laughed.

Hearing what Chen Yan said, Zeng Fan couldn't help laughing.

"When you say that, it really seems to be the case. How about saying that art comes from life?" After joking a few words, Zeng Fan said seriously, "Even if this place was opened before, I rarely let the team members in. After all, opportunities and dangers coexist. We know very little about the world inside, and the unknown is an extremely scary thing. In addition, the time inside is also different from the outside. Someone once went in for ten days, and after coming out, he was much older. It was later known that the flow of time inside is much faster than outside, but the flow inside does not seem to be constant, so until now we have not been able to figure out the law of time inside. It can only be said that the longer you stay inside, the better you will be. good."

Chen Yan nodded in understanding.

Even in the Luoxian Continent, the secret realm is definitely not a good place to go, not to mention that in this world, it is naturally more dangerous for this group of relatively weaker humans.

In Luoxian Continent, there are still sects who use human lives to fill a road to the sky, but it is impossible for the power group to do this. Even if someone is so cruel that they take the entire power group into it, it may not be possible. How effective it can be.

"It's not impossible to let me lead the team in, but I have a request." Chen Yan said.

Zeng Fan put on a posture to mention it anyway, anyway, he was used to being asked all kinds of demands when talking with Chen Yan, so he was ready to bleed heavily.

"Leading the team this time, I alone is enough. Don't let Xiaolou go too, and help me hide it from him." Chen Yan said.

If it was only in this world, he would have the confidence to protect Duan Xiaolou, but if he went to an unknown secret place, it would be difficult for him to guarantee Duan Xiaolou's safety.He himself doesn't care, anyway, even if his body is gone, his body is still there, at most he will be trapped for a period of time, and he can still break free when he recovers.

Zeng Fan didn't expect Chen Yan to make such a request, but it was not difficult, so he agreed without hesitation.

"In addition, I have to choose the people I bring. If you recommend five hundred people to me, I will bring ten people in, but I don't guarantee that I can bring them out." Chen Yan said.

"Okay, but Deng Feng is not on the list of ten people." Zeng Fan said, "She went to the secret realm this time to find a medicinal herb."

Zeng Fan briefly explained.

Chen Yan nodded and agreed with Deng Feng to go in together.After all, Deng Feng's strength lies there, and he is relatively experienced, so it is not a burden.

The two agreed, and the follow-up work will be carried out soon.So when Duan Xiaolou learned that Chen Yan was going on another mission and was still going to a place he couldn't reach, it was only the afternoon of the third day.

Duan Xiaolou was a little unhappy, and this emotion was almost displayed on his face.

"So, that's what you talked about when you met Zeng Fan last time?" Duan Xiaolou asked.

Chen Yan was usually with him, except that day he received a call from Zeng Fan and left for a while.

Chen Yan nodded, and said softly: "It's only a few days, not too long, you remember to eat well during the few days I'm not here, don't be picky eaters, and be obedient, you know?"

Duan Xiaolou nodded reluctantly, and said, "Then remember to come back early after the task is completed."

Chen Yan agreed naturally.

Probably the mood was still not calmed down. After a while, Duan Xiaolou complained again: "You said why we can't do the task together? The teaching is not in a hurry. Besides, you don't know whether the task is dangerous or not. I am Shouldn't I prepare more things for you in case of emergencies?"

"Okay, there's no harm in being more prepared." Chen Yan agreed.

In fact, he didn't care about the preparations, the purpose of Duan Xiaolou's help in the preparation was to allow Duan Xiaolou to focus on other places, or to have a channel to vent.

Duan Xiaolou spent a day sorting out a pack of things that Chen Yan might need and put them into a backpack. This backpack was made by Duan Xiaolou later, with a love heart pattern drawn on the black background. At first glance, it looks like the previous one. The pink schoolbag is quite a couple style.

"The most of them are healing pills, and there are some weapons I have improved. You can use them yourself or share them with others." Duan Xiaolou handed the backpack to Chen Yan and explained.

Chen Yan took the backpack and put it on his back very honestly, looking very docile.

Therefore, when Chen Yan arrived at the meeting point, he seemed a bit out of place with the others.

Most of the others were dressed in black and sporty attire, but Chen Yan was the only one who wore casual attire and carried a childish schoolbag on his back.

"Hey, where is this student from? Did he go to the wrong set?" Someone in the crowd said.

"Look at that schoolbag, it looks like it hasn't been weaned..."

However, before the man finished speaking, he flew out.

It took a while for the people around to come back to their senses. This person was probably sent flying by Chen Yan.Although everyone thought so, no one could clearly see how Chen Yan moved.

He just stood there with a calm expression on his face, as if he had never moved, but the person who spoke rudely was lying on the ground unable to move, no matter how he looked at it, he looked like he had been severely injured.

The other teams around immediately backed away and looked at Chen Yan cautiously.

This trip to the secret place, the ability group is only a part of it, and there are many other forces, so the personnel are complicated and the quality is uneven.And because the members of the ability group come from different regions, although they seem to be one, they also have their own thoughts.That's why some people saw that Chen Yan was out of place and spoke rudely. It was suppression and temptation.

But I didn't expect Chen Yan to be so stubborn, making the other party lose his ability to move if he disagreed with each other. Only then did everyone face up to this "little team leader".

After seeing Deng Feng, who has been famous for a long time, unconsciously showing respect to him, this group of people felt more and more that they had misjudged - what kind of fresh rookie is this? wack!

Chen Yan counted the number of people, and asked Deng Feng to give him a brief introduction to the assembled people. Time passed by, and soon it was time for the mysterious space to open.

"Let's go." Chen Yan closed his eyes and felt for a moment, making sure that the space at the entrance was still stable, and then waved to his team members.

Only then did a group of people file in.

……

Duan Xiaolou didn't have Chen Yan here, and he wasn't as unaccustomed to it as last time, but he always felt a little uneasy in his heart, and this feeling of uneasiness was gradually expanding and increasing day by day.

On the third day, Duan Xiaolou realized something was wrong.

If he was just not used to Chen Yan's departure like last time, it could be said that he missed him, but this kind of lingering fear is more appropriate to say it is a premonition rather than pure worry.

Duan Xiaolou immediately called Li Shu and asked about Chen Yan's situation.

At first, Li Shu also concealed that Chen Yan was on a secret mission and it was inconvenient to contact him.After Duan Xiaolou said that he had a premonition that something was wrong with Chen Yan and the others, and threatened to refuse to continue teaching without informing Chen Yan of the specific situation, Li Shu told Duan Xiaolou that Chen Yan had indeed gone to a more dangerous place, but that The place is now inaccessible.

"It's not that I don't want to tell you. The main reason is that Chen Yan told us not to let you know." Li Shu explained while taking Duan Xiaolou to the entrance of the secret realm.

Because Chen Yan said that the place was somewhat similar to the secret place in the novel, everyone felt it was very reasonable after comparison, and the word "secret place" spread.

Duan Xiaolou knew that this must be Chen Yan's intention. Perhaps it was because he felt that the trip would not be too smooth and even dangerous from the very beginning, so the other party didn't want him to participate even more.

"Don't talk about whether these are useful or not, have all my students arrived?" Duan Xiaolou knew that Li Shu was not to blame for this, but he still couldn't take a good look at him.Who let these people and Chen Yan hide it from him?

"It's coming, it's all here." Li Shu said, "But can they really help you open the entrance to the secret realm?"

Li Shu didn't quite believe it.

Not to mention how many skills this group of people have learned from Duan Xiaolou, even Duan Xiaolou himself may not have the ability to open the entrance to the secret realm.

You must know that the secret realm has been around for so many years, but no one has ever been able to enter and exit the secret realm when the entrance is blocked.

And even if there is an entrance, it may not be possible to enter it smoothly.

According to the "predecessors", the entrance to the secret realm is very unstable, like a space channel that collapses at any time. prop it open.

Duan Xiaolou didn't pay attention to these.

To be honest, he has never tried to open the passage of the secret realm before.

It's not that I don't want to, but I don't know where to start.

The secret realm is originally a separate space. After the passage is closed, this space becomes a whole by itself, so how can we talk about opening it?

However, under the influence of modern thinking, Duan Xiaolou felt that he could start from the passage itself, and regard this passage as a gate controlled by some kind of "intelligent system", and what he needs to do is to release or control this "intelligent system". system".

For monks like them, the "intelligent system" of the secret realm is all kinds of superimposed formations. As long as he solves the corresponding formations, he can grasp the key key to open the door.

But this job sounds easy, but it is a huge project to do.

Since the space is self-contained, how could it be so easy for him to find the formation to control the entrance?

Even if those formations were found, how could that huge number be easily controlled by him?

Fortunately, Duan Xiaolou still has a group of students. Although these students are not extremely talented, they have at least mastered a certain amount of formation knowledge, which is enough for a strike.

Just like that, a group of people were gesticulating in the flag array of Duan Xiaolou, and sometimes recorded something with paper and pens, seemingly talking about it.

However, a day passed, and this group of people didn't gain anything, as if they just came for a cutscene and left as soon as the time came.

Even Li Shu, who had high hopes for Duan Xiaolou at the beginning, calmed down and stopped expecting him to perform miracles, Duan Xiaolou suddenly raised his head and looked diagonally behind him, and said, "It's done!"

The author has something to say: I don’t know why, but I’ve been prone to headaches in recent years... hey...
