Lock the Cloud Peak.

A main peak deep in the Tianluo Mountains is thousands of feet high and very steep.

The clouds and mist are shrouded in half of the waist, and it is difficult to see the sun all year round. No matter the weather is sunny all year round, the layers of clouds and mists are never dissipated, as if they are locked, so it is called Suyun Peak.

The mountains are full of trees and the rocks are rugged. Under the haze, it looks even more gloomy. The occasional harsh roar is enough to scare the timid and dare not go further.

Generally, a few warriors dare not enter at will. This is the territory of the monster.

Although the magic core is valuable, it is not as precious as your own life.

Unless there are occasionally strong mercenaries who come to hunt third and fourth level monsters, they will seize the opportunity to fight quickly and will never dare to stay for a long time.

Therefore, this area is rarely visited by people most of the time, and monsters are rampant.

However, in the past few days, the bustling under Suoyun Peak suddenly became lively, and the road was bustling with people.

"Wuhu, are we here too late? Look at the black and thin film in front of us, with thousands of people, and there seem to be handsome masters."

A middle-aged man with a dark face said to his companion: "What treasures are there in this tomb that attract so many masters."

"Lao Jiao, the imperial tomb will be opened for two days, and it's not too late. But with our war supervision level cultivation level, it may be just to be here to get busy. It's rare that there is such a big thing, so you must always see it." Wu Hu said lightly.

"I said you two are too unpromising, what's wrong with the handsome level? I heard that after the tomb is opened, there will be barriers inside to suppress cultivation. The higher the cultivation level, the stronger the suppression, so we have more opportunities."

The other man ignored him and turned his head and said to the old man with a little hunchback behind him, "Old Gong, what do you think?"

"Ba San, don't be impatient. Let's follow others to find opportunities first. No matter which master's tomb is the tomb of a previous life, good things are indispensable. Be sure to be safe first and then act at the opportunity."

The oldest of the four people was named Gong Lao, and looked confident.

"Look, the people from Xuantian Sect are here too. The young man in white robe is Gu Yun, an inner disciple of Xuantian Sect. It is said that he is already a fourth-level War Supervisor at the age of twenty-five. The two elders behind him are both war general-level masters, and the elder Xuanqing is even a ninth-level general-level, only one step away from the general-level commander."

Lao Jiao was the one who was most impatient, and pointed to the three people wearing white robe just now and said.

"Get out of the way, don't block the way of Mr. Chen in Tianyun City..." With a shout, Lao Jiao and the other four hurriedly leaned against each other, and the group of four hurriedly passed by them in strong outfits.

These five people did not hide their cultivation, which made Lao Jiao and the other two feel depressed.

"There will be a good show later. When Chen Zitai and Gu Yun meet each other, something will definitely happen." When the five members of the Chen family walked away, Lao Jiao swept away the depression and dullness, and there was a bit of gloating.

"Say less, the Chen family in Tianyun City is not something we can afford to be provoked by the four sluts." Old Gong quickly stopped Lao Jiao.

The Chen family and the Gu family are both big families in Tianyun City, and have been fighting openly and secretly for their own interests for many years.

After thousands of years of equality, it is difficult to separate Xuanyuan. In addition, the Yuli family and the Carter family mediated from it. There was no major conflict in the four major families in Tianyun City.

However, the situation has changed dramatically in the past twenty years. First, Gu Fantian, the ancestor of the Gu family, disappeared unexpectedly, and the Gu family lacked a war commander-level strong man.

Later, the Chen family married the Winter family, the capital of the Tianluo Kingdom, and the Winter family came forward to recruit two powerful warriors from the Xize Empire, Beta and Sigma, as the Chen family's guest ministers.

The rise and fall of the other broke the original relative balance, making the Chen family the dominant one, but the Gu family gradually declined, not only could it not compete with the Chen family, but it was even left far behind by the other two major families.

Four years ago, Xuantian Sect went to Tianyun City to select disciples. Gu Yun defeated Chen Zitai and won a place, and Chen Zitai was eliminated.

Xuantian Sect ranks among the top five in the Tianluo Continent, and the conditions for recruiting disciples are very strict. It requires that it be under 22 years old, with at least the level of war in the Battle Supervisor level, and is selected within the Tianluo Continent every five years.

All major families hope to send their children to Xuantian Sect and take pride in this, but the competition for more monks and less porridge is very fierce.

Taking Tianyun City as an example, it takes three days and six rounds of competition before the top eight can enter Xuantian Sect.

In the last round of the 16-to-8 match, Chen Zitai lost to Gu Yun and was eliminated.

For Chen Zitai, that was his last chance. He and Gu Yun were both twenty years old, and he would be over the age of the next session.

So this failure, especially in Gu Yun's hands, was a very shame and humiliation. Chen Zitai has listed Gu Yun as his biggest enemy.

At this moment, outside a small cave a hundred miles away from Suoyun Peak, Yichen was sitting cross-legged in a space surrounded by dozens of towering trees. The trees were lush with branches and leaves, covering the sky and the sun, as if isolated from the outside world, becoming an independent small space.

Yi Chen in the space is like an old monk entering into meditation, greedily absorbing the rich essence of wood in this primeval forest.

"... Wood is the essence of plants, which is born from the earth, moistened by the sun, moon, wind and rain... The essence of the absorbed body enters the liver, gallbladder and opens the orifices to the eyes. Wood belongs to the east, and purple qi comes from the east to transform from wood to the essence of the five elements of wood, and combines with the spiritual energy of the earth."

"Because wood needs to be rooted in the soil and consumes the earth's energy, it is mutual restraint, so it is difficult to blend without the innate five elements... It is a good idea to attract wood to collect the essence of the dantian to protect the liver, improve eyes, relax muscles and moisten the gallbladder, strengthen the liver and strengthen the body and resist poisoning..."

What Yi Chen is practicing is the "Tree of Wood" in "The Great Five Elements".

Compared with the "Secret of Earth", the earth energy in the body is full, and the essence of wood is difficult to blend after entering the dantian. He travels east and west and runs left and right, making him do not have much effect even though he does his best.

Since the breakthrough is shortly after, it is necessary to consolidate the cultivation level and absorb more of the five elements.

Jin Jia saw it and signaled Yichen to stop practicing the "Tooth Skill".

After Yichen rested for a while, under the guidance of Jinjia, he began to practice gathering qi to form a ball. He first collected the earth's energy in his dantian, and slowly concentrated the earth's energy according to the "Big Five Elements Skills".

Then more earth energy is introduced, and then concentrated, and the cycle is repeated...

Three days later, the earth energy in Yichen Dantian had been slightly concentrated and no longer in disorder...

After another five days, Yichen felt that the earth energy in the dantian could merge with each other according to certain rules, gradually turning into invisible entities, running around the dantian in circles.

After a long time, a spherical air mass appeared in Yichen's dantian, about the size of an egg.

The wood essence that was difficult to blend before no longer runs left and right, but is circulating in an orderly manner in the Dantian, liver, gallbladder, tendons and veins, and then opens to the eyes.

Seeing that Yichen had gained something, Jinjia was also very happy.

"Master, it takes at least two to three years for those who are just starting to achieve your current achievements. However, it takes less than two months for you. At this speed, within a hundred years, you will reach the state of Great Perfection."

"Is this the qi gathering into a ball? What is its purpose?" Yichen didn't know what this achievement meant: "How long will it take for me to break through to the level of general?"

"Master, gathering qi into a ball means that you are able to master the use of the five elements of qi. This qi ball is the crystallization of the earth qi in your body. Some people also call it inner alchemy, which does not occupy the space in the dantian."

"When you fight against the enemy, you can know the consumption of the five elements of energy at any time, and even at critical moments it can be pulled out of the body to fight against the enemy. At this time, the enemy will not see you. Even if the earth energy in your body is consumed, it will not hurt your life, because your own vitality is still there, it is enough to save your life."

Jin Jia replied: "Practicing the "Big Five Elements Art" is not divided according to the level you mentioned. You can reach the level equivalent to the level of general in a year at most. You will go to Suoyun Peak tomorrow. I will wait for you twenty miles away from the tomb of the emperor. You must act carefully and try to lower your cultivation."

The next day, Jin Jia sent Yichen to the valley below Suoyun Peak, and reminded him of some precautions, and then asked Yichen to go to the imperial tomb alone...

"Gu Yun, you, a boy from a broken family, dares to covet the imperial tomb. You are simply overestimating your ability, so you should go back as soon as possible." Chen Zitai spoke provocatively as soon as he saw Gu Yun.

"Aren't the monsters here scared us to hide? Where did a talking wind demon dog come? Is it the sixth level?" Gu Yun said coldly.

Ordinary Wind Demon Dogs are low-level monsters of first and second level and can't speak. Only monsters of the sixth level can turn into human form and speak human words.

"Gu Yun, you dare to call me a monster. Have you ever seen the wind demon dog talk? "Come here if you want to die, you bastard!"

"Who are you scolding?" Gu Yun's cold face seemed to hide a hint of sadness, and the corners of his mouth were raised, and he looked mocking.

"The bastard is scolding you..." Chen Zitai suddenly stopped talking, and his chest was so angry that he kept undulating. He heard a burst of laughter around him, and he couldn't help but become angry.

His hands shook, and in a blink of an eye, an iron spear about meter long appeared. He held the gun in both hands and roared at Gu Yun.

This shot used Chen Zitai's nine success powers, and with the pressure caused by the release of vitality, it rushed straight to Gu Yun's chest like a giant snake. The chills gushed wherever the gun wind passed, which made the warrior-level martial artist feel a little suffocated.

"Although Mr. Chen is a fool, his cultivation is very strong, at least he is at the third level of the Super League. He also uses a long spear. As the saying goes, one inch long and one inch stronger. This gun is enough for Gu Yun to drink a pot."

"That's not necessarily the case. Chen Zitai lost to Gu Yun four years ago. Moreover, Gu Yun has become an inner disciple of Xuantian Sect, and his strength will definitely not be weak."

"This kid is not a good man, but this gun is good. If it weren't for the three old guys around him, I would have found a way to get it."

"You are looking for death. Look at that red-haired guy, he can destroy the three of us alone."

Gu Yun had no time to listen to other people's comments. He deliberately angered Chen Zitai just now and asked him to make a fool of himself in front of everyone.

But when he saw the iron spear that was stabbing at him quickly, he didn't dare to neglect it and pulled out the sword.

He dodged the tip of the gun, and took a sword flower. Following the opponent's lost spear, he wiped his backhand. It seemed careless, but it was actually extremely strange. He quickly wiped Chen Zitai's hand holding the gun.

"Good sword technique!" Lao Jiao was always shocked: "Wuhu, Gu Yun's sword is much faster than when you were in your twenties."

"Shut up!" Wu Hu was so shocked that he was interrupted by Lao Jiao and shouted impatiently.

Chen Zitai shot him with a shot, quickly stopped, then thrust his gun to the left, preparing to use the advantage of the iron spear to shake off Gu Yun's sword.

However, Gu Yun had already made accurate predictions, and instead of retreating, he bullied himself forward, and raised his hand and stabbed his opponent's throat with a sword.

The two of them fought back and forth, fighting together. The elders behind them were also watching the development of the battle situation, ready to join the battle at any time.
