Although Wu Luo made it clear that he had written off the killing of Wu Jing and would not trouble Lin Shen again for this matter, Lin Shen still had no intention of entering Xiyan Daze again. After separating from Red Hu, he immediately returned to Linlong City.
Before parting, Red Fox gave Lin Shen a talisman for communication purposes.
As long as she enters the Longyuan Mountains, holds the talisman and injects her true energy, she will be able to sense the location of the talisman and come to meet Lin Shen.
Lin Shen also later learned the name of the red fox—Qiu Li!
The Haoshan Fox clan all have the surname Qiu.
Back at Jiuyang Taoist Temple, Lin Shen didn't bother to take a breath, and went straight to Yang Zhongyi and got straight to the point.
"Is there any way for me to meet Senior Brother Xie Jingsheng?"
Yang Zhongyi was startled for a moment, then he reacted and said in surprise: "Why are you looking for Senior Brother Xie? You want to ask about challenging the disciples of the Upper Academy?"
"It has nothing to do with this. I have other things to do with him." Lin Shen said vaguely.
After all, this matter is of great importance, and the fewer people know about it, the better.
Seeing that Lin Shen didn't want to say more, Yang Zhongyi didn't ask any more questions and responded patting his chest.
"It's a small matter, wait for my news!"
Yang Zhongyi's action efficiency is still very fast.
In the evening, Lin Shen met Xie Jingsheng as he wished.
Although the Upper Court and the Lower Court are in the same Jiuyang Taoist Temple, they are separated in different areas.
Except for the disciples of the upper courtyard who hold corresponding talismans, the disciples of the lower courtyard cannot enter at all.
The aura concentration in the residence of the disciples in the upper courtyard is also far higher than that in the residence of the disciples in the lower courtyard.
Even the Grade A monastery where heaven-level disciples live is far inferior.
As soon as he stepped into the wooden building, Lin Shen immediately felt the aura permeating the air.
Under the wash of spiritual energy, he suddenly felt a sense of comfort that was transparent both internally and externally.
"What a rich spiritual energy!" Lin Shen exclaimed in praise.
He estimated that this residence had most likely reached Xuanlu level.
If you practice in such a spiritually rich place, your cultivation progress will not be slowed down at all!
Xie Jingsheng, who was walking side by side, laughed when he heard this and said: "With Junior Brother Lin's ability, it won't be long before he can have a place here."
Xie Jingsheng said these words sincerely, with a bit of exclamation.
Lin Shen's cultivation progressed so fast that it could be said that he had never seen it before.
Less than a year after entering the Taoist Temple, he has already reached the level of Mingqiao Realm!
And I heard that he has already reported to challenge Yan Jingren.
If it really succeeds, then Lin Shen will undoubtedly be the fastest-promoted disciple of the Upper Academy since the establishment of Jiuyang Taoist Academy!
The outstanding qualifications are simply breathtaking!
only
Xie Jingsheng suddenly thought of something and reminded:
"Junior Brother Lin, I met Junior Brother Yan a few days ago. He seems to have improved a lot in his cultivation during this period. You must be more careful when it comes to the disciple level challenge in three months!"
I’m afraid I won’t be able to wait until that time!
Lin Shen thought to himself, his expression turned solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "I happen to have something related to the Yan family, and I want to talk to Senior Brother Xie!"
The two happened to walk into the living room. Seeing Lin Shen's extremely serious expression, Xie Jingsheng was slightly startled, but he quickly came to his senses and pointed to the coffee table in front of him.
"Junior brother Lin, sit down and talk."
Lin Shen followed the good example and immediately talked about the underground spiritual cave after sitting down.
He did not conceal the source of the information, and truthfully told him that it came from Qiu Lichu.
Of course, there is no need to talk about Uro.
After hearing this, Xie Jingsheng was shocked and could not speak for a long time.
The Yan family intends to monopolize the underground spiritual cave without telling the sect. This is undoubtedly a major event.
Once word spreads, it will definitely cause huge turmoil in the sect!
Xie Jingsheng was so perceptive that he immediately understood the purpose of Lin Shen telling him this matter, and immediately nodded solemnly.
"I understand what Junior Brother Lin means. I will go and see the teacher now. Before that, I ask Junior Brother not to make any noise!"
"I see!"
Lin Shen also nodded solemnly, took out the Soul Forbidden Pearl and handed it to Xie Jingsheng.
The matter was so important that Xie Jingsheng did not dare to delay, so he stood up immediately after receiving the Soul Forbidden Bead.
"Junior Brother Lin, do it yourself!"
As soon as the voice fell, Xie Jingsheng rushed out vigorously.
Watching Xie Jingsheng disappear outside the door, Lin Shen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
If you want to expose the Yan family's conspiracy, someone with enough weight must come forward.
One of his disciples in the lower court certainly does not have this weight.
Although Xie Jingsheng is a disciple of the Upper Academy, he is also of insufficient weight.
Among the people Lin Shen knew well, only Si Yuanpei had this weight.
Si Yuanpei is a monk and one of the deans of the Lower Court of Jiuyang Taoist Academy, so he has a high status even within the Jiuyang Sect.
What's more important is that this dean is not from a noble family, and is even on the opposite side of the family.
If he knew what the Yan family was doing in private, he would never protect the Yan family, let alone miss this great opportunity to weaken the family's power!
As a result, the Yan family will most likely not escape disaster!
What's more important is that he can hide this matter behind the stage without having to stand in front of the stage and endure the strong wind and waves!
"The next step will be to see what the senior leaders of the sect do."
After handing over the Soul Forbidden Pearl, Lin Shen had no way to interfere with what happened next.
He didn't want to worry in vain, so he simply put the matter behind him completely.
After coming out of the Upper Court, Lin Shen went straight to the Court of Merit.
After turning in all the black iron bones obtained during the trip in the mission hall, a total of eighteen middle skills were obtained.
After that, Lin Shen went to the exchange hall and exchanged all the middle merit into spiritual nourishing pills.
"These nourishing pills should be enough for me to break through to the fifth level of Mingqiao!"
Lin Shen felt a little hot in his heart after taking a look at the fifteen extra bottles of spirit nourishing pills in the storage ring.
After experiencing the feeling of powerlessness facing the incarnation of Uro, he became more and more eager and eager for power.
Only by being promoted to a monk as soon as possible can he have the power to protect himself in this world.
He is no longer just a pawn on the chessboard, but has the qualifications to dominate the chess game and look down on everyone!
Back at the wooden building, Lin Shen went straight to the practice room.
Instead of starting to practice immediately, Lin Shen called up the panel and looked at the last column.
‘Number of clones 6 (100%)’
A full two hundred days have passed since the sixth clone was condensed.
Today, the seventh clone is finally condensed and completed!
Taking a deep breath, Lin Shen calmed down and immediately summoned the seventh clone.
The phantoms are separated and the phantom is transformed into reality.
In the blink of an eye, the seventh clone appeared in front of Lin Shen.
【Clone No. 7】
[Talent: blockbuster]
[Realm: Mingqiao third level 85%]
[Currently practicing: None]
"A blockbuster? What kind of talent is this?"
Lin Shen suddenly became curious and quickly looked at it.
At first glance, his expression suddenly seemed strange.
[Blockbuster: Use the body to nourish Qi, use the mind to store Qi, and store and accumulate the essence, Qi and spirit into the next attack. The longer the accumulation time, the greater the power of the attack]
Lin Shen looked stunned.
This talent is somewhat similar to a martial art he has heard of called knife-raising skills.
This martial art emphasizes nourishing the sword with your mind, nourishing the sword with Qi, and keeping the sword extremely sharp.
He rarely takes action on weekdays, and he keeps cultivating his sword's intention and power.
It will not be until the moment of taking action that earth-shattering power will explode!
It is a very strange martial skill.
The talent of making a blockbuster seems to be similar to the skill of raising swords.
The longer the accumulation of accumulation takes, the stronger the attack power will be when you take action, making it a blockbuster!
Lin Shen suddenly hesitated.
How should I put it, this talent is a bit subtle.
Not to mention that being a blockbuster is not helpful in cultivation. Whether it is practicing martial arts or the Nine-Yang Heart Sutra, it will not have any positive effect.
Just because he has to go out to practice and hunt monsters from time to time, it is not suitable for him to wear this talent.
But on the other hand, this talent is very suitable for use as a trump card.
He can completely let the seventh clone focus on cultivation, not participate in the battle, and continue to accumulate energy and spirit.
Wait until the critical moment and then summon it, it will have the final say and reverse the situation!
The seventh clone with a blockbuster talent can definitely serve as his ultimate killing move!
Thinking of the scene where he was chased by the incarnation of Uro not long ago, Lin Shen's eyes flashed slightly and he finally made up his mind.
It’s time for me to have a real trump card!
After making the decision, Lin Shen no longer hesitated and took back the seventh clone.
From now on, unless you encounter a very difficult and powerful enemy, you can just keep the seventh clone in your mind and practice peacefully.
After gathering his composure, Lin Shen then summoned a clone with superb martial arts skills, took out the heavenly materials and earthly treasures traded from Tao Zongbao from the storage ring, and handed them all to him for consumption.
After Tian Jie Yingcai's talent disappeared, this important task could only fall on the clone with superior martial arts skills.
As for Hui Ji's inevitable injury to his clone, it's better not to waste his short remaining life.
Taking out the nourishing pill, Lin Shen stopped his distracting thoughts and started practicing.
In the following time, in addition to breaking through to the fifth level of Mingqiao, he is also preparing to break through the Weapon Melting Hand.
Lin Shen has been looking forward to the realm of martial arts after entering the Taoist realm for a long time.
As long as you master the seven perfection realm palm skills and claw skills, Melting Soldiers can break through to a higher realm!
Deep in the Longyuan Mountains.
In an inconspicuous mountain.
With a chirping sound, a flying crane descended from the sky and landed in front of a huge cave entrance at the heart of the mountain.
Yan Jingren jumped down from the crane's back, waved his sleeves and put away the flying crane, and stepped into the cave entrance with meteoric strides.
Behind the cave entrance is a spacious passage, enough to accommodate more than ten people at the same time.
A pearl is inlaid every four or five meters on both sides of the passage, emitting soft light and illuminating the entire passage like daylight.
There were two people guarding the position near the entrance of the cave.
Seeing Yan Jingren come in, the two of them immediately bowed to greet him.
"Master!"
Yan Jingren nodded calmly and asked casually: "Is the second uncle here?"
"Elder Yan has been here for a while."
Upon hearing this, Yan Jingren immediately quickened his pace and walked inside.
After passing through the long passage, it didn't take long before Yan Jingren's eyes suddenly opened up and he had arrived at a brightly lit cave.
The cave is extremely wide and has an inverted bowl shape as a whole. There are traces of manual excavation everywhere, and many places around the edges are slightly rough. It is obvious that it has just been excavated and expanded not long ago.
After entering the cave, Yan Jingren's eyes immediately fell on the middle cave.
The cave is about 20 to 30 meters long, and the inside is extremely dark and deep. It also emits faint howling sounds like a strong wind, which is extremely frightening.
From a distance, it looks like a beast's mouth eager to devour people, waiting for uninvited guests to break in.
Around the cave, a layer of enclosures was built with white jade, which looked like a well railing.
Yan Jingren glanced around and quickly spotted Yan Jinting standing near the fence.
"Second uncle!"
Yan Jinting had long been aware of Yan Jingren's arrival. When he looked back, his spiritual consciousness swept over him, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Jingren, have you made a breakthrough again?"
Although it was a question, his tone was very firm.
Yan Jingren also had a smile on his face, nodded and said: "I just broke through to the fourth level of Mingqiao three days ago."
He turned his head to look at the cave, his eyes flashing with burning light.
"This spiritual acupoint is indeed as amazing as the rumors say. I only practiced in it for one month, and it was already worth the three or four months of hard training in the past. If I could practice in it for two or three years, I would have seven
Success makes you a monk!"
How difficult it is to become a monk.
Many practitioners cannot break through this barrier in their entire lives!
Being 70% sure of becoming a monk is already an extremely high probability!
Not to mention it only takes two or three years.
Hearing this, Yan Jinting had a huge smile on his face.
After looking through the entire family, the descendant he admires most is Yan Jingren.
This nephew is extremely talented and has a calm temperament. He is a person who will achieve great things, and his future will be limitless!
If nothing else goes wrong, the position of the next generation head of the Yan family will most likely fall to Yan Jingren.
In comparison, another nephew, Yan Xing, was much worse.
A direct descendant of a famous family, the family has poured so many resources into him, but he has been defeated by a commoner kid one after another. It is really disappointing!
Shaking his head secretly, Yan Jinting restrained his thoughts and returned his gaze to the cave.
"The spiritual acupoint has not yet been fully opened, and the qi movement has not yet completely calmed down. It is already the limit to accommodate four or five people, and they must stay for up to a month before they can come out. Otherwise, the qi movement will be disordered, and the consequences will be disastrous!"
After a reminder, Yan Jinting changed the topic and reassured:
"But this situation will not last long. The captives of the Haoshan Fox Clan have been moved to the heart of the mountain. Blood sacrifices can be performed one after another starting tomorrow. It will take up to three months for the spiritual cave to be fully opened!"
At the end of the sentence, even with monk Yan Jinting's temperament and cultivation, there was a touch of excitement in his words.
This time, the Yan family can be said to have made a desperate move, almost risking the fate of the entire family, just for the spiritual cave in front of them.
As long as the spiritual acupoints can be completely controlled, the revitalization of the family is just around the corner!
In a dozen years at most, the Yan family can regain its prosperity a hundred years ago!
It is not impossible to even keep pace with the three major surnames!
Given time, the Yan family will surely become the most powerful family in Linlong City!
Thinking of this, Yan Jinting couldn't help but feel excited.
The light in Yan Jingren's eyes became increasingly fiery.
At this moment, a burst of rapid footsteps suddenly sounded, interrupting the conversation between the two.
Yan Jingren looked back at the sound and saw Yan Xing walking out of the passage in a hurry.
"Brother."
As soon as Yan Xing shouted, he saw Yan Jinting standing next to Yan Jingren, his voice suddenly weakened, and he subconsciously shrank his head.
"Second uncle, you are here too."
Yan Jinting glanced at him with a faint expression, and frowned slightly.
Yan Jingren knew that his second uncle was dissatisfied with Yan Xing, and was worried that he would scold him, so he quickly asked: "What happened? Why do you look like you are in a hurry?"
Yan Xing then remembered the business and said quickly:
"Brother, I just came back from Jiuyang Taoist Academy. I heard that Lin Shen has reported to the higher academy and is preparing to challenge you for the disciple level challenge in three months. This is simply too much!"
Looking at Yan Xing's angry look, Yan Jingren couldn't help but frown.
"Lin Shen is a heaven-level disciple of the Lower Court and has already broken through to the Mingqiao Realm. Isn't it normal to challenge a disciple of the Upper Court?"
"this"
Yan Xing's expression froze for a moment, and then he said:
"But brother, aren't you angry that Lin Shen challenged you when he left the other disciples of the Upper House to challenge you? It's clear that he came for our Yan family?"
Yan Jingren stared at Yan Xing steadily and couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart.
It has only been three months since he was promoted to a disciple of the Upper Court. On the surface, he is the weakest among the disciples of the Upper Court. Anyone who wants to challenge a disciple of the Upper Court will most likely choose him as their first choice. This is normal.
To take a step back, even if Lin Shen really came for him, what does it matter?
Just defeat him with dignity and dignity!
What's there to be anxious and angry about?
Right now, the entire family is busy trying to open the spiritual cave, fighting for the future of the family.
However, as a direct descendant of the family, Yan Xing focused on Lin Shen, an unrelated person, and held on to some grudges from the past.
At best, it can be said that they don't distinguish between the important and the important, and they don't know the general picture.
To put it harshly, it is short-sighted and has no overall perspective!
"snort!"
Yan Jinting on the side couldn't stand it anymore, snorted coldly, rolled up his sleeves and left.
"Big brother, second uncle."
Yan Xing hadn't realized his mistake yet, and when he saw Yan Jinting getting angry and leaving, he was immediately at a loss.
Yan Jingren sighed secretly in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, but said lightly:
"You don't have to worry about Lin Shen's affairs anymore. I have my own sense of discretion."
"In addition, you should also focus more on your cultivation. I have helped you win one of the next batch of places to enter the spiritual cave cultivation. One month will be enough for your cultivation to improve by one or two levels.
Be sure to cherish this opportunity.”
After hearing this, Yan Xing suddenly became happy and nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, brother, I will definitely practice hard in the spiritual cave!"
He is now at the fifth level of Long Breath cultivation. If he can enter the spirit cave to practice for a month, his promotion to the sixth level of Long Breath is a sure thing.
If everything goes well, it is not impossible to break through to the seventh level of long-breathing.
In this way, when it comes to the disciple level challenge three months later, he will be almost guaranteed to be promoted to an earth-level disciple!
After hearing Yan Xing's assurance, Yan Jingren's expression softened slightly.
"Okay, let's practice hard and stop focusing on unimportant things."
"After three months, you and I will go back to Jiuyang Taoist Temple."
The more times like this, the more important it is to act as usual and not to reveal the slightest clue.
Therefore, on the disciple level challenge day, they still have to return to Jiuyang Taoist Academy.
As for Lin Shen's challenge, Yan Jingren didn't take it to heart at all.
With the spiritual point, he had already broken through to the fifth level of Mingqiao after three months.
By then, even Jiang Hao, Mu Chuanhua and others would not be his opponents, let alone Lin Shen, who had just been promoted to the Mingqiao Realm.
The most important thing right now is to fully open the spiritual acupoint as soon as possible!
