There was no one in the room, except for a few carved sandalwood chairs placed in the front.
With a creaking sound, the door slowly opened. Clear light poured in from the outside and shone in the main hall.
A figure gently closed the door, stepped into the room slowly, stopped, and there was no more movement.
The main hall did not become more angry due to the sudden appearance of one more person, it was still gloomy and depressing.
This figure suddenly noticed something and frowned slightly.
There were stains of blood scattered on the ground, drop by drop, as numerous as a lump. What kind of blood was this? The figure observed it for a long time before confirming that it was human blood.
He deduced that someone had died in this house, and more than one person had died. This was the land of immortals, why was there such a place? The man suddenly thought of something, and his eyes flickered.
This person is Chu Cheng. He was led into this room by an inner disciple just now. It was said that Elder Xia was waiting inside, but there was clearly no one here.
"There are reward and punishment halls for both the outer disciples and the inner disciples. It seems that this is the punishment hall, but why on earth do you want me to come here? And how many criminal disciples have been punished and killed by this law enforcement hall?" Chu Cheng murmured.
, and continued to think.
"It stands to reason that only disciples who commit crimes will be brought here, but I just came to Luo Yun Sect not long ago, and I haven't violated any of the sect rules, not even the one about not bathing in the stream."
"Is it because he injured Mo Ji? Do you have to be punished for fighting with people from other sects?" Chu Cheng immediately threw this aside. Ouyang Xiu didn't say anything at that time, so it must not be the case.
This is it.
Although the four immortal sects are all righteous, there will be some friction between each sect, so there are still frequent fights among the disciples of each sect.
High-level sects will also turn a blind eye, which can also temper their disciples. If the interests of the sect are involved, even high-level sects will take action to fight with other high-level sects.
Chu Cheng looked calm, stood with his hands behind his back, and waited quietly.
After lighting the incense, there was still no one in the room.
Chu Cheng's expression remained calm, and no one could tell what he was thinking at the moment. But inside, there were hundreds of thousands of ants crawling over the pot.
What on earth is going on? Why did you ask him to come to a place like this? Even though he was not frightened when he saw the blood on the ground, he couldn't show any cowardice, and he had to pretend that tens of thousands of people had died.
What? I’ve seen more!
This is the highest state of Chu Cheng's pretense in his previous life. It is inevitable that he will meet some awesome people when he goes out, but as long as he pretends to be indifferent, the other party will definitely have some scruples. For example, a second-generation official said that his father is the county magistrate.
You have to act like a county magistrate, what does that mean? You have to act like my uncle is the municipal party committee and my grandpa is the provincial party committee.
Chu Cheng was sure that someone must be watching him in the house, and he vaguely felt that there were eyes watching him in the house.
"No way? Do you know I have cigarettes on me?" Chu Cheng thought in his heart, but immediately denied it. He had never taken out a cigarette outside, and even if he took it out to others, he wouldn't know what it was, right?
Thinking this in his mind, Chu Cheng felt relieved and secretly thought that he was too surprised.
It’s not his fault. Any outer disciple would have been frightened when he came to the Punishment Hall. This is a place that is said to be a place where you will not die but also shed your skin.
"It seems that Elder Xia has something to do temporarily. I'll come back tomorrow. I guess Elder Xia will not blame me for anything given his magnanimity."
Chu Cheng thought for a while, muttered and turned around to leave.
"You...are Chu Cheng?"
At this moment, a voice finally sounded in the room.
Chu Cheng smiled inwardly, saying that he wanted to leave just to force Elder Xia out, but his face was very frightened, as if hearing this voice was like encountering a ghost.
"Urgent as the law dictates! Get rid of the demons and monsters quickly!" After saying that, he took out a broken talisman, looking like he was facing a formidable enemy.
"Haha, you little guy is quite interesting. I am Xia Feizhou." The voice was so close that it reached Chu Cheng's ears.
Chu Cheng sneered in his heart, he naturally knew that this was Elder Xia's voice.
"Elder Xia, why didn't I see you?" Chu Cheng looked around and found that he didn't see you.
"I have been watching you for a long time." Elder Xia said quietly.
Chu Cheng was shocked. Sure enough, his intuition was right. He felt that someone was staring at him, but why did he keep looking at him? Could it be that Elder Xia was as good as Long Yang and had some ideas because of his handsomeness?
When he thought of this, Chu Cheng felt a chill in his heart and thought something was wrong.
"Chu Cheng, I have always been behind this wind screen."
"Wind screen?" Chu Cheng was stunned, and he did see a wind screen. When he thought about it, the elders inside the door were all condensation monks. In the opening scene, they stood with their hands on their backs, or sat on chairs, and walked over to take a look.
I saw Elder Xia lying down somewhere.
Elder Xia walked out from behind the wind screen, glanced at Chu Cheng, and said calmly: "The fourth level of Qi gathering is not bad."
Chu Cheng was stunned, how could he still see his own cultivation level? He had never known about this before, so how could Mo Ji fail to see his own cultivation level and underestimate the enemy?
But he didn't know that Qi Gathering cultivators certainly couldn't see the same level of cultivation. Only after establishing the foundation, one could vaguely see the early, middle and late stages of Qi Gathering cultivators, and it became even clearer when reaching Condensation Liquid.
"When did you start practicing?" Xia Changzhou asked.
"Reporting to Elder Xia, this disciple started practicing three years ago." Naturally, Chu Cheng would not directly say that it had only been six months. This was too shocking. Even he himself was confused all the way to the fourth level. Is it because he has good qualifications?
No, Chu Cheng knew very well how poor his aptitude was when he opened his spirit. It was all because of that cigarette and looking at the moonlight picture at night. So once he let others know that his aptitude was extremely poor, but he cultivated so fast, he would definitely be criticized.
I suspect that I have a strange treasure.
Therefore, Chu Cheng deliberately extended it for three years.
"Three years? In a place like the Huang Kingdom, you can reach the third level of Qi gathering, and you can reach the fourth level in just a few days in the sect. It is a rare sight in a hundred years."
Xia Changzhou narrowed his eyes and said, "Then your spiritual roots must be excellent. I wonder what your spiritual roots are?"
"This..." Chu Cheng was stunned. How did he know what kind of spiritual root he had? Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth all have corresponding colors, and he was gray with black. Could it be said that he had a gray-black spiritual root?
"I happen to have a spiritual stone here. Come and test it now." Before Chu Cheng could think of what to say, Xia Changzhou had already taken out a spiritual stone.
Chu Cheng was shocked, could it really be known? Although he didn't know what kind of magic weapon this smoke was, he could tell by looking at the moonlight picture at night that it must be extraordinary. If it was taken away like this, it would definitely be a disaster.
It is unwilling to do so.
"What?" Xia Changzhou snorted coldly and pointed forward.
Chu Cheng only felt an amazing suction force pulling him away, and his hand touched the open spirit stone.
Wow, the open spirit stone suddenly burst into light!
Chu Cheng was frightened and angry at this time, like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, very powerless.
"Huh?" Xia Changzhou said softly.
The suction force dissipated with this light sigh, Chu Cheng got rid of it, took a step back, and was stunned when he saw Kai Ling.
There is a dazzling light in the Kailing Stone, and the color inside is very bright. The color is like gold and deep red. If you can name one color, it would be red gold.
Chu Cheng was stunned, how could he turn into red gold when he clearly had gray mixed spiritual roots before?
"Mutated spiritual roots? But this is the first time I have seen such a pure color. It is indeed a rare talent seen in a hundred years." Xia Changzhou praised, guessing that it should be the combination of fire spiritual roots and golden spiritual roots. The two are originally meant to attack.
I'm afraid it will be even more severe!
Xia Changzhou stared at Chu Cheng and said with a smile: "What kind of moves can Master Chu's nephew use in his battle with the disciples of the Ziyan Sect?"
Here comes the point!
"Moves?" Chu Cheng breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. It turned out that he was only here for the moves, not for his cigarettes.
"Reporting to Elder Xia, the disciple used the fireball technique, sword light and shadow, and the Seven Jumping Techniques."
"Seven Jumping to the Sky?" Xia Changzhou's eyes lit up when he heard the Seven Jumping to the Sky. Fireball and Sword Light and Shadow were just ordinary skills, but the Seven Jumping to the Sky was described by the disciple as at least a yellow-level top-level skill. It was very likely that it was a mysterious skill.
Level! He also asked Xie Feng to ask about it, and it was indeed the case.
That’s why Chu Cheng was called over to take away this skill!
Xuan-level skills are treasures of the Luoyun Sect. Apart from the Supreme Elder, only the previous sect masters can read them. If you get this skill, your strength will definitely increase greatly!
Xia Changzhou chuckled, waiting for Chu Cheng to go out on a mission, secretly intercept him and seize the skill. No one would notice an outer disciple if he died, and even his sworn brother Ouyang Xiu would definitely not think of him.
.
Even if he guessed it, Ouyang Xiu couldn't say anything without any evidence. Besides, with his peak cultivation level in the early stage of liquid condensation, he was not afraid of a small core disciple.
If it were Ouyang Xiu back then, how much more scruples would he still have?
Just as Xia Changzhou was about to speak, he suddenly saw the broken talisman in Chu Cheng's hand.
"Yellow level talisman!" Xia Changzhou was stunned and stared at Chu Cheng's hand. After a while, he asked: "Master Chu, what's your talisman?"
"Oh, the talisman was damaged because during the duel with the ink mark, I took it back in order to achieve a surprise effect. It should be able to be used again." Chu Cheng wondered why Elder Xia was interested in this low-level talisman.
Xia Changzhou's lips twitched, and he secretly thought that this kid was wasting his treasures. A low-grade yellow-level talisman can withstand a full blow from a foundation-building cultivator, and a mid-grade talisman can withstand a full blow from a foundation-building cultivator. What's more, this is a high-grade yellow-level talisman! And the current four immortals
Only the Great Elder in the Talisman Array Gate refines yellow-level high-quality talismans.
At this moment, Xia Changzhou seemed to have seen a ghost and heard Chu Cheng say something.
"Elder Xia? Are you interested in this talisman? I can give you one." Chu Cheng took out a talisman from his arms.
Xia Changzhou took the talisman and looked at it carefully for a moment. Sure enough, it was a top-grade yellow-level one!
"Master Nephew Chu, where did your talisman come from?" Elder Xia put the talisman into the storage bag and saw that Chu Cheng's face was calm and he didn't care at all.
"This talisman was given to me by a senior." Chu Cheng thought for a moment and then said, "If Elder Xia wants it, I can ask for more when the disciple has time."
"..." Xia Changzhou's eyes widened. How come yellow-level high-grade talismans are like giving away fruits to the boy, giving them in piles? Could it be...
Before Xia Changzhou could finish thinking about it, Chu Cheng said again: "By the way, Elder Xia! The seven sky-jumping postures were also learned by that senior."
"Pfft!"
Xia Changzhou asked hurriedly: "Master Nephew Chu, what is the cultivation level of the person you are talking about?"
At this time, Chu Cheng thought that at the beginning, Elder Xia treated him like a little lamb that could be pinched easily, and his pretentious attitude rose again.
"Reporting to Elder Xia, I don't know what kind of cultivation my senior has."
Xia Changzhou just started to think about it in his mind, but when he heard the next sentence, he almost spit out a mouthful of blood.
"The disciple only remembers that the day before leaving for Luoyun Sect, the senior turned into a soul and came out to find me, saying that he would accept me as his direct disciple after I learned the first five of the Seven Jumping Moves."
Chu Cheng added: "What the disciple said is wrong. It should not be that the soul left the body, but a baby similar to the body of the senior."
"Pfft!" Xia Changzhou almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. He was just thinking about how to find that person to perform the seizing technique. If he went there, even if he were a hundred, he wouldn't be able to come back! Nascent Soul...that person must be
It's the Nascent Soul cultivator! Even if all the Golden Pill cultivators and Liquid Condensation cultivators in the four immortal sects take action at the same time, they will still be destroyed by the Nascent Soul cultivator!
There is a legendary Yuanying old monster in Qingzhou! But it has not been born for at least eight hundred years, and he actually has his mind set on the powerful Yuanying! This is really asking for death!
Xia Changzhou was secretly glad that he asked Chu Cheng more questions today.
