Chapter 753 The best place is not peaceful! A fellow Taoist
Qingzhou and Zhongzhou are thousands of miles apart, a long journey.
Although Chu Chen was exempted from his duties as an immortal by the Immortal Court, his immortal status was not revoked. He still wore the Divine Cloud Five Thunder Ribbon on his waist, was still a serious fifth-grade Taixuan Master, and could still enjoy free rides on the Xianting Station flying boat.
.
There is no need to spend mana on the journey, it can be reached in four or five days. Along the way, you can follow the rise and fall of the flying boat, visit various cities and towns, and experience the local customs and customs.
However, after thinking about it, Chu Chen rejected this plan.
He had traveled throughout Kyushu before and had seen a lot of the local customs and customs. He was not interested in taking a stop-and-go, slow-moving post boat.
During this trip to the imperial capital, in addition to watching the enthronement ceremony, Chu Chen's main purpose was to collect the four-elephant spirit stones and sun-moon essence stones needed for the magic weapon [Laojun's Sun and Moon Four Elephants Bagua Mirror]. He did not want to waste too much time on the road.
, I just want to rush to the imperial capital as soon as possible.
In addition, the three-year term is about to expire, and the younger brother Pengju has also been transferred back to the capital in the past few days. The two brothers, who have not seen each other for many years, can just meet again.
"Drive! Dali Huzi, let's go to the imperial capital!"
As soon as he left Guangping County and was galloping high in the sky, the little ghost seemed very excited. He had been practicing in Yunshui Residence for more than half a year and had never traveled far, so he was exhausted.
The most important thing is that despite practicing so hard, there is still no breakthrough.
The realm of great supernatural powers is no small matter. Even if the Ear Report Fairy Boy achieves a breakthrough much easier than a normal cultivator, he still has to pay attention to an opportunity for breakthrough.
Without this good fortune, there is no point in being anxious.
Chu Chen was not anxious about the little ghost's breakthrough to the realm of great supernatural powers. He just went with the flow and did not force it. He was in a hurry to rush to the imperial capital.
With Hu Dali's magical power, it would take a whole day to run thousands of miles in one breath, and it would definitely be quite tiring.
Originally, Chu Chen did not intend to take Hu Dali to the imperial capital, but Hu Dali was quite conscientious and had too clear a vision of "Mr.'s mount", so he would go with him no matter what.
Chu Chen shook his head and made some magic tricks with his hands.
The next moment, seven divine seals appeared out of thin air.
Astonishingly, it is the Five Elements Spiritual Seal of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth and the Two Seals of Wind and Cloud.
In the past six months, in addition to quietly cultivating and stabilizing his cultivation, Chu Chen has also not neglected the aspect of nourishing and cultivating the [Twelve Seals of Heavenly Essence Spiritual Inscriptions].
At that time, the twelve-square lightning strike jujube wood presented by Yu Xuzi, the uncle of Guigu Shuilian Cave Master, was of excellent quality and was a fourth-grade lightning strike wood. Over the past half a year, the seven seals of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, and cloud were successively refined into magic weapons by him.
.
The three seals of the Dragon and Tiger people have not yet been refined and upgraded, and are still only fifth-grade magic weapons.
There is only one level difference between a top-level magic weapon and a magic weapon, but they are worlds apart.
Previously, Chu Chen only had to practice step by step according to the secret method of the "Twelve Seals of Heavenly Essence Spiritual Inscriptions" to practice the Twelve Spirit Seals, and then incorporate his insights into it. Over time, he was able to successfully perform the ritual.
Basically there is no difficulty, at most it takes a lot of hard work.
However, the current situation of refining magical treasures is different. It requires extremely high levels of understanding of the Dao. If the foundation is not enough and the level of enlightenment is not high enough, it will be impossible to refine the magical seals into magical treasures.
Thanks to the [Diamond Psychic Sword Technique], Chu Chen has been studying the Great Dao all year round and has a deep understanding of the Five Elements. He took the lead in deducing the rules of the Five Elements in the Five Elements Dharma Seal, deriving the magic talisman, and then deduced the power of the wind and cloud, step by step.
The Door Dharma Seal Sacrifice was used to refine a set of magic weapons.
After nearly a year of silent cultivation, Chu Chen's Taoist and magical powers have initially taken shape, and his strength is now much better than before. If he meets Gu Xuanming from the Qingyang Marquis Mansion again, he is confident that he can easily defeat him.
The three seals of the dragon and tiger man, he did not have enough fire, so he was unable to successfully refine them.
The [Tian Xin Seal] also appeared in the Heart Temple before. After Chu Chen broke through the realm of great supernatural powers, he was qualified to understand this magical seal.
It's a pity that this [Tian Xin Seal] is extremely profound and obscure. His practice is too shallow and his foundation is not enough, so he has not succeeded in practicing it.
However, even so, the set of magic weapons composed of the seven divine seals is extremely powerful, has endless magical uses, and possesses great magical powers.
The two seals of Fengyun are the main ones, and the Five Elements Spirit Seals are the supplementary ones. It is an amazing escape technique.
The seven great seals all appeared together to show their power. The wind and clouds under Hu Dali's feet suddenly accelerated violently, as if they were stepping on hot wheels. His four legs moved "swishingly" like thunder. Hu Dali felt a terrifying force.
Pushing him, he suddenly turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the sky.
"Sir, what happened, I can't stop"
Hu Dali was a little uncomfortable with the explosion of escape skills, and was terrified.
But the little kid was very happy and shouted: "Brother, I like it so much, drive faster!!!"
Hu Dali had the help of the "Five-Colored Cloud Dou", and it was really a fierce wind with lightning, and the speed was terrifying. It was thousands of miles away and it took half a day to reach Zhongzhou.
This is because he was saving mana and did not use his full force to escape. If he had used his full force to escape, his escape speed would be 20 to 30% faster.
A year ago, Chu Chen came to Zhongzhou, but at that time he was just like an ordinary person traveling aimlessly, and he did not specifically inquire about the local cultivation world.
It is precisely because of this that after arriving at the border of Zhongzhou, the group stopped in the wilderness and lost their goal. They had no idea what kind of market or ghost market they were, and they didn't know which direction they were going.
Chu Chen only knew about the markets near the imperial capital, but Zhongzhou was so big, and the enthronement ceremony would only start in a month. Naturally, he wanted to visit various markets and ghost markets in Zhongzhou to try his luck and see if he could meet the four.
Elephant spirit stone, sun and moon spirit stone.
It's easy to find serious markets that are open for business, but it's hard to find the hidden ghost markets in various places.
"Sir, should we go to the nearby city of Immortal Garden, or should we find a nearby landscape god to ask for directions?"
After driving for most of the day, Hu Dali showed no sign of fatigue on his face. He was very relaxed and energetic.
"The treasures I want to collect may not be understood by ordinary monks, but by the gods of mountains, rivers and land."
Chu Chen shook his head.
Both the Four Elephant Spirit Stones and the Sun and Moon Spirit Stones are extremely precious and rare treasures. They are rare treasures in the eyes of monks with great supernatural powers, and ordinary people cannot show him the way.
Thinking of this, Chu Chen took something out of his sleeve, and a token appeared in his hand.
It is the order of the elders of the Nine Nether Alliance.
After breaking through the realm of great supernatural powers, Lord Long absorbed Chu Chen as the elder of the Nine Nether Alliance and gave him a token.
The Jiuyou League is a loose alliance of monks. There is one pavilion elder in each state in the nine states of China. Among them, the Qingzhou Jiuyou League is the strongest, followed by the Zhongzhou Jiuyou League.
To be able to thrive in the capital city, one can imagine his strength.
The order of the elders of Jiuyou was quite effective. After communicating with the Jiuyou Alliance of Zhongzhou, he was quickly entertained by the Jiuyou Taoist friends of Zhongzhou.
As a result, Chu Chen did not delay, and took Hu Dali and Xiao Guizai on their way to meet up with the other party.
Not long after, a burly man wearing powerful clothes, dressed as a mortal Orion, stood on the edge of the wind and strode out to greet him.
"Senior Chu has come a long way, and I have missed my welcome. Please forgive me!"
"Fellow Taoist Baishi, I'm in trouble."
Chu Chen smiled faintly.
The person who came was none other than the Taoist friend who was entertained by the Zhongzhou Jiuyou League. His Taoist name was Baishi Shanren. He was a spirit refined from the stone in the mountain. He had achieved great success in cultivation. He was a fifth-grade Dzogchen Taoist. It is said that he had refined the super-grade Dharma, Tao Xing.
The magical power is quite impressive.
This person from Baishi Mountain is not a casual cultivator in the mountain, but a person from the Immortal Court. The heavenly dynasty is enshrining the fifth-grade mountain god.
Speaking of which, this man from Baishi Mountain has a lifespan of several hundred yuan and is dozens of rounds older than Chu Chen. However, when he met Chu Chen, he called him "senior".
Chu Chen was too lazy to explain and accepted the honorific title of "Senior" with peace of mind.
On the side, the little kid was shocked when he saw this scene, and the ambition in his heart grew like weeds - one day, I will let my master
"No trouble, no trouble."
Seeing that Chu Chen was very accommodating and polite, the Baishishan people showed a smile on their faces, took out a picture scroll from the backpack on their waist, and presented it:
"Senior Chu, this is the map you want. There are many ghost markets in it that are frequented by monks with great supernatural powers. There are many good treasures in it."
After a short while, the other party had prepared everything. Chu Chen was quite satisfied and immediately took the scroll. After browsing it, he nodded repeatedly:
"Thank you, fellow Taoist Baishi!"
"Senior, your words are serious, this is a trivial matter."
"."
After some pleasantries, the two had a pleasant chat.
However, Chu Chen soon remembered something and asked:
"Fellow Taoist Baishi, Zhongzhou is the best place in the world and the most peaceful. What happened recently?"
On the way to meet him just now, although Chu Chen didn't encounter any evil spirits, he did encounter a lot of evil spirits.
Seeing this scene, Chu Chen was quite surprised. Zhongzhou is the headquarters of the Immortal Court of the Celestial Dynasty. There are crouching tigers, hidden dragons, and countless strong men. Demons and demons dare to be lawless and domineering in the backcountry, but few demons dare to come to Zhongzhou.
presumptuous.
Chu Chen traveled hundreds of miles and encountered several waves of evil spirits. This abnormal scene surprised him, and he immediately felt that something big might have happened in Zhongzhou.
The people from Baishi Mountain smiled when they heard this:
"Senior Chu, I'm afraid you don't come to Zhongzhou much. This year is the year of Yi Ding. When the divine weapons of the country are replaced, there are some unworthy monsters and monsters that are bewitched and driven to cause harm every time."
After saying that, the Baishi Mountain man added: "In Zhongzhou, even the demons who have become Huohou dare not mess around."
Chu Chen nodded slightly.
There are crouching tigers and hidden dragons in Zhongzhou, with strong men like clouds, large sects of immortals, and wealthy families gathered together. If demons dare to come out to cause trouble, in many cases the demons will be killed without the immortal sect taking action.
After taking the map, Chu Chen didn't stay long.
After some pleasantries, he left and headed straight to the nearest ghost market.
Chu Chen followed the directions on the map and went to the larger square and ghost markets without leaving the ground, collecting Vermillion Bird Spirit Stones, Basalt Spirit Stones and Sun and Moon Spirit Stones.
In the next few days, I visited two or three small and large markets and ghost markets.
Unfortunately, nothing was found.
There are no Four Elephant Spiritual Stones or Sun and Moon Spiritual Stones on the market.
Obviously, this kind of treasure is usually not taken out, and it is very likely that some big families keep it in their home treasury and are unwilling to sell it.
On the way, a three-inch carrot head fell on Hu Dali's round head, and he shook his head and looked at the sky.
"Brother, I always feel something is wrong."
Chu Chen was worried about not being able to collect the treasures. He was very surprised when he heard the little ghost boy's abrupt words:
"Little devil, what's wrong?"
"Brother, look at the rain."
Hu Dali swept his consciousness and found nothing in the rain: "What's so special about this rain? Why didn't I see any clues?"
The little devil put his hands on his hips and said: "Dili Huzi, of course you can't see it. There is disaster energy in this rainwater. It's very weak. Only those with profound Taoism and wise eyes can see it. Senior brother, do you think it is?"
no!"
Chu Chen was stunned. Could he say that he didn't see it either?
"Ahem, little devil, what else did you see?"
Chu Chen was very convinced of the little devil's ability to foretell bad omens. He had no doubts at all, and his expression immediately became serious.
At the time of the enthronement ceremony and the transition of the celestial dynasty and the country, if a disaster occurs in Zhongzhou, things will be very serious.
"Senior brother, I can't see anything right now. The energy of disaster is very weak. I'm afraid it can only threaten mortals."
Chu Chen nodded slightly and breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he still planned to report the situation to Xianting later to prevent any mishaps.
"No. Senior brother, I 'saw' a small group of Jie Qi. Someone in front of me is unlucky."
The little ghost pointed into the distance, looking quite surprised.
Chu Chen's spiritual consciousness immediately "saw" it, with a look of surprise on his face.
"I unexpectedly met an old friend."
Immediately, without thinking much, the Qinglong Sword in the sword box behind him let out a dragon roar.
"call out!"
The fairy sword was unsheathed and soared straight into the sky.
Ten miles away, in the vast wilderness.
A giant spaceship crashed to the ground, its hull in pieces, and it was a terrible sight.
What is even more shocking is that inside and outside the flying boat, a group of monsters with animal bodies and human faces, green faces and fangs, and muscles all over their bodies roared at the top of their lungs and attacked the people around them.
These monsters range in size from big to small.
The larger monsters are one or two feet tall, as tall as a small giant, while the smaller ones are similar to ordinary adult men, but they are muscular, extremely powerful, and look extremely ferocious.
Those two-foot-tall monsters have extraordinary magical powers. They are illuminated by black and blue body-protecting divine weapons, and the sharp claws in their hands are as sharp as divine weapons.
These monsters were quite ferocious, and after a while, only three people were left alive on the flying boat.
The reason why these three people survived was thanks to a young Taoist priest who looked young and had a zombie-like expression.
He holds a sword secret in his hand and fights with a group of monsters with a white-haired divine sword. His sword skills are quite good. The sword box behind his back continuously shoots out sword energy, which is extremely powerful against monsters. Monsters less than one foot tall can be killed with one sword.
Killing a demon is extremely powerful, helping him fight off waves of sieges, just like a killing god.
However, as the other two peers beside him were severely injured by monsters and fell to the ground, the zombie-faced man lost the support of his teammates and was suddenly surrounded.
When the zombie-faced Taoist priest saw this, he cried out that something was wrong, and without saying a word, he wanted to use his sword to escape to save his life.
However, these monsters are not just physically powerful, they also possess quite a lot of magical powers. Seeing the zombie-faced Taoist priest trying to escape, all the monsters spit out black mist, filling the surroundings of the broken craft with black mist.
As soon as the sword light escape touched the black mist, the escape method was forced, and the human form was forcibly revealed immediately.
When the zombie-faced Taoist priest saw this, even though he was usually cold-tempered, he became nervous now.
Just when the zombie-faced Taoist priest was trying to deal with the monsters and crying in his heart, the sky suddenly erupted with a whistling sound of sword energy.
A blue-gold fairy sword came galloping towards me.
The next moment, sword energy shot out from the green gold fairy sword.
Vaguely, a blue dragon appeared, spitting out sword energy and laying down a terrifying sword rain.
"咻咻咻~"
There are hundreds of gold and cyan sword lights that seem to make the sound of dragons roaring.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Under the green and gold sword energy, whether they were short monsters or monsters one or two feet tall, they all "thumped" under the baptism of sword rain and fell to their knees on the ground, dying.
Just a breath or two.
The lively fighting scene came to an abrupt end.
The zombie-faced Taoist priest saw this scene. There was no emotion on the zombie's face, but his eyes were full of shock. He swallowed and murmured:
"This is the Rokko Yagami Blue Dragon Sword."
It was at this point that a clear laughter came from the distance.
