[Xiu Xian] The ninth generation

Although he had only been away for a short seven days, Chu Yanzhi obviously felt a big change in the atmosphere in the sect when he came back this time: even though the disciples were in the same hurry, they all had smiles on their faces, and the original guard was swept away. And empty, replaced by or expect or calm.

It can be seen that the relationship between Zongmen and Lei Luozong has eased dramatically, which should be related to the sudden advance of the competition.

While pondering in his heart, Chu Yanzhi didn't stop, went to the Foreign Affairs Office to get his holiday successfully sold, and went straight to his residence in Zixia Peak.

Outside the familiar bamboo house, as expected, there were two people standing: Chu Mengjiao and Chu Xiaowu.

Just after saying goodbye to Chu Zixuan and walking back to the sect quickly, Chu Yanzhi received Chu Xiaowu's pigeon and asked him when he would be back, and he naturally answered them one by one.Afterwards, Chu Yanzhi kept in touch with Chu Xiaowu, and was informed that he would wait outside his house with Chu Mengjiao to discuss matters related to the contest.

It is more appropriate to say "discuss", but to use "inform" - this is undoubtedly Chu Xiaowu's euphemism.

Seeing Chu Yanzhi from a distance, Chu Xiaowu heaved a sigh of relief, with obvious anxiety on his face: "Why did you just come back!"

"Senior Sister Chu" Chu Zixuan stopped in his tracks, and greeted the two of them with a slight smile, "Brother Chu." When Chu Mengjiao heard this address, the expression on his face stiffened a little, and he took a closer look. It was discovered that Chu Yanzhi, who was not as talented as himself, had already reached the eighth level of Qi Refining, which was close to Chu Xiaowu's ninth level of Qi Refining. His face stiffened even more.

Chu Xiaowu paused, bit her lips and said nothing, but after a while, Chu Mengjiao came back to her senses, glanced at Chu Xiaowu, smiled as if to make amends, and said, "Senior Brother Chu."

Chu Yanzhi pretended not to see the disappointment on the girl's face, opened the door calmly, invited the two to come in calmly, and calmly brewed spiritual tea for them.Seeing that both of them answered, he showed a little smile: "It's not a good thing, please don't take offense, senior sister and junior brother."

"Where is it, thank you, brother." I don't know if it was because he was often hit after joining the sect, Chu Mengjiao quickly corrected his mentality, took a sip of the spirit tea with a smile.

Chu Xiaowu glared at Chu Mengjiao: "Why do you still want to drink tea!"

"Uh..." The young man put down his teacup in embarrassment.

"Senior Sister Chu, don't be in a hurry." Chu Yanzhi gently persuaded, "The competition hasn't started yet, so let's talk slowly, so that my junior brother and I can have a bottom line."

I don't know if it's because Chu Xiaowu has been quite convincing since he was young, or because of Chu Yanzhi's unique aura. As soon as Chu Yanzhi's words fell, Chu Xiaowu really calmed down. The above is like this.

"This big competition is actually preparing for the secret realm." Chu Xiaowu paused, and threw out a shocking message as soon as he opened his mouth.

Chu Yanzhi stopped holding the teacup for a moment before putting down the teacup again: "Secret Realm?"

Chu Xiaowu calmed down completely at this time, took a sip of spiritual tea, and then said with a memory on her face: "The matter must start with the agreement between the Zongmen and Lei Luozong..."

The battle between Lei Luozong and Zichenzong is set in the southeast of Zichenzong near the sea.The sea area is surrounded by the sea on both sides, bordering Zichen Sect on the north and Tian Yuan Sect on the west, but it does not belong to any sect, it is an isolated place.As for why it is isolated, it is too old to test.

The competition was held as scheduled, and the two sects each had their winners and losers. When the battle was evenly matched, suddenly there was a burst of purple light not far away.The precious light suddenly appeared, either the unearthed treasure or the auspicious auspiciousness of heaven, the two sects immediately suspended the competition and groped towards the place where the purple light radiated. The secret realm was discovered unexpectedly but reasonably.

Secret realm, that is a secret realm that has not been discovered before!

The two cases reached an agreement immediately, no more competitions, and secretly explored, replacing the results of the competition with the results of exploration.In the end, after losing some people, it was discovered that this secret realm was on the verge of destruction, and only monks below the foundation establishment period were allowed to enter, and even if they were below the foundation establishment period, they could only accommodate about 90 to [-] people for more than a month.The two sects negotiated and decided to split the quota, and quickly sent disciples in, but unexpectedly, the fire could not be covered with paper, and the news leaked out at some point, and all the respectable sects in Jingyuan Continent knew about it overnight.

Hearing this, the corners of Chu Yanzhi's eyes twitched.

The next process can be guessed with the back of the head, nothing more than the sects united to persecute the two sects, demanding a share of the pie.In desperation, the two cases had no choice but to compromise and split the quota equally.But at any rate, it was discovered first, and manpower and material resources were used to explore, so after arguing hard, the two cases were assigned fifteen places, and the other five cases each occupied ten places. It was agreed that after ten days, all The Zongmen gathered at the same place again and worked together to mine.

Now that this secret operation has been leaked, Zi Chenzong will not stop doing it, and simply make the matter bigger, referring to the big competition after March, issuing a summoning order to all disciples, and formulating new rules: select ten Five people participate in the secret realm, and the top ten are selected as inner disciples according to the income of the secret realm, and the outstanding ones can even break the rules and directly become true disciples.Of course, if you fall into the favor of a certain uncle, then it's a different matter.

"I see." Chu Yanzhi nodded thoughtfully.

After Chu Xiaowu said so much, his mouth was dry for a while, and he picked up the teacup and drank half of it in one go.Putting down the teacup, she looked at Chu Yanzhi expectantly: "Will you sign up?"

This competition, as usual, requires disciples to sign up to participate.Otherwise, with so many disciples of the Zichen Sect, they would not be able to win the year of the monkey after the one-by-one competition.Moreover, this time it is limited to below the foundation building period... Well, according to the limit, all three of them can sign up.Chu Yanzhi glanced at the two people opposite, one innocent and the other complicated, just nodded with a smile: "Of course."

"Yeah, Yan..." Chu Xiaowu seemed to think of something, glanced at Chu Yan, and swallowed the unfinished words, "Junior Brother Chu must work hard."

Chu Yanzhi didn't seem to see the forced smile on the girl's face, and responded kindly: "Okay, so does the senior sister."

Like last time, the scene quickly cooled down.

Chu Xiaowu offered to leave, but Chu Mengjiao naturally had no objection, so Chu Yanzhi sent them to the door.

"Senior Sister Chu." Seeing that Chu Xiaowu and the others were about to turn around and leave, Chu Yanzhi stopped the girl, "Just wait."

Chu Xiaowu looked at him, and the gloomy face suddenly glowed with hope. It was so bright that Chu Yanzhi dared not look directly at it.Chu Yanzhi lowered his eyebrows, reached into his arms, and was about to take out the storage bag, when suddenly his expression changed, and he was stunned on the spot.

As if he couldn't bear to see the uneasy expression on Chu Xiaowu's face, Chu Mengjiao, who hadn't said a word, called out, "...Senior Brother Chu?"

"Ah, sorry." Chu Yanzhi smiled apologetically, took out the storage bag from his bosom, and took out a jade bottle.

"Well, Senior Sister Chu, I'll wait for you up front." Chu Mengjiao hesitated for a moment, thinking it would be wiser to propose to leave first.

"It's the return gift from senior sister Gu Yuandan last time." Chu Yanzhi stopped Chu Mengjiao with a smile, "The living pills I bought in Qingzhou are said to be effective in enhancing the absorption capacity of monks when taken with Zhujidan. I think Seeing that the senior sister is about to build the foundation, I bought it, and I ask the senior sister not to dislike it."

Chu Xiaowu took it over, and reluctantly said: "How come, thank you, junior brother. So the senior sister will leave, and the junior brother will cheer."

Saying that, the girl turned and left.Chu Mengjiao looked at Chu Xiaowu who was leaving in a hurry, and then at Chu Yanzhi who was smiling calmly, struggled for a while, and then said "Brother, come on", and chased the girl away up.

Chu Yanzhi watched the two leave with a calm face, not knowing what he was thinking.

Turning around and closing the door tightly, the smile on his face faded little by little, and he took out a jade bottle-shaped object from his arms.

The jade bottle is an ordinary jade bottle.

After pulling out the cork, Chu Yanzhi's expression changed due to the contents inside: two black elixir with a cold luster, being quietly sealed in the bottle. ——This is clearly the Black Soul Pill!When did Chu Zixuan stuff the pill into his arms without anyone noticing?Even after being bullied into the body and putting things in it, I didn't realize it until after the fact. Does that mean that something else happened, and I didn't notice it at all?

Chu Yanzhi's face was unpredictable. After studying the bottle carefully for a while, a transparent and extremely difficult to detect "seal" word was printed in his eyes.He clearly recognized that the word "Feng" was Tiansheng Chu's "Feng Zi Jue", which was used to prevent the leakage of breath and the perception of weight. No wonder he couldn't feel that there was something extra in his arms!

Staring at "Feng" for a while, Chu Yanzhi sighed, and then put down the bottle, with mixed feelings in his heart, and he didn't know whether it was good or bad that the pill fell on him in the end.

...Chu Zixuan.
