"Is Cao Wuchen personally in charge of the south?"
After hearing Xie Pengfei's words, Lei Ren frowned and asked.
"No, Cao Wuchen has gone north since he captured Qingye Island, because the north of our Qingzhu Island is very important. There are many cultivation resources there. Our Qingzhu Island has also sent the most powerful elder He Yunhai to guard it.
side."
Xie Pengfei shook his head and said: "Cao Wuchen went to the north. To the south are Su Zixing and Gong Ruofeng from Huoyun Island. These two people have bad tempers and often harass our coast. If it weren't for our strong defense, they would have taken this south.
It’s captured.”
"Su Zixing and Gong Ruofeng?"
"Well, Su Zixing is the elder of Huoyun Island, and his cultivation is in the middle stage of Yuan Dan. Gong Ruofeng is the direct disciple of Huoyun Island, and his cultivation is also in the middle stage of Yuan Dan."
Hearing this, Lei Ren smiled faintly. It turned out that these two unknown men were in Qingye Island. If I had known earlier, I should not have come back from Qingye Island and bloodbathed Qingye Island!
"What about the confrontation between Cao Wuchen and Elder He in the north?" After thinking about it, Lei Ren asked again.
Xie Pengfei said: "At present, it seems that they are just about equal. There was a round of negotiations between Huoyun Island and Qingzhu Island a while ago, and it was agreed that Sima Yan of Huoyun Island and our leader would not participate in the attack and defense of the south and north of Qingzhu Island. Therefore,
Now the leader is just anxious."
"Ah? How come there is such an agreement?"
Lei Ren felt a chill in his heart, thinking that there were many masters on Fire Cloud Island, but there was only one Nascent Soul stage master on Qingzhu Island, and that was Mu Zongnan.
If Mu Zongnan doesn't take action, then how can we fight?
Xie Pengfei said: "Brother Lei Ren, you don't understand the situation. There are three Nascent Soul stage masters from Huoyun Island, and we only have one leader. If all three Nascent Soul stage masters from Fire Cloud Island really come, our Qingzhu Island might...
It has been razed a long time ago. You don’t know the gap between Yuan Dan stage masters and Yuan Ying stage masters. Tsk tsk... Let’s put it this way. Elder He Yunhai has been in the late Yuan Dan stage for five years, and now he is half-step Yuan Dan.
Infant realm.”
"Half-step Nascent Soul?"
Lei Ren was stunned. It seemed that he had never heard of this realm.
But I heard Xie Pengfei explain: "I also heard about this cultivation process. I heard that there are several insurmountable thresholds in the journey of cultivation, and this Nascent Soul stage is the first threshold.
For ordinary people, it takes a long time to practice from the late Yuan Dan stage to the Yuan Ying stage. It can be as little as three to five years or as many as decades. Some even stay in the late Yuan Dan stage for their entire lives and find it difficult to make any progress. So later on
, slowly someone discovered that during the process of cultivation, Queen Yuan Dan
There is a state in the Nascent Soul stage that is close to breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, but has not yet broken through. It is equivalent to taking half a step out of one step, and only half a step is left to enter the Nascent Soul stage. Later people will become accustomed to this state as half-step Yuan Ying.
Baby, this is not a realm, just a state.
Of course, I heard that this state is dispensable. There are also peerless geniuses who directly break through to the Nascent Soul stage in one step without going through half a step of Nascent Soul. However, these are the few. The people I have heard of include the headmaster and the Huo
Sima Yan of Yun Dao and several other masters of the Nascent Soul stage have all passed the half-step of the Nascent Soul state."
There is still such a state. Lei Ren is deep in thought. Xie Pengfei said that it will take at least three to five years to break through from the late Yuan Dan stage to the Yuan Ying stage. This... He has only broken through to the late Yuan Dan stage for a few months. It will take until
The Nascent Soul stage, or even the half-step Nascent Soul stage, seems to still take a long time.
"Elder He has reached the half-step Nascent Soul state and still cannot defeat Cao Wuchen?" Lei Ren asked.
Xie Pengfei shook his head: "They haven't fought yet, so they are very cautious. After all, once two masters of the half-step Nascent Soul take action, in such a situation, just the impact of the true energy will spread to the surroundings for several miles. The cost is too high."
It’s too big…”
"Two half-step Nascent Soul masters? You mean..."
"Well, Cao Wuchen became a half-step Nascent Soul master half a year ago."
Hiss~
Lei Ren gritted his teeth. Cao Wuchen was indeed a genius among the geniuses of Fire Cloud Island. Unexpectedly, after the Six Islands Conference, his cultivation base was not damaged at all. Instead, he was promoted very quickly, always a little faster than himself.
!
"Haha, brother Lei Ren, you don't know that when Cao Wuchen led his people to attack Qingye Island, he released the prisoners of Qingye Island and asked that person to take a message and name you to fight him. Later he found out
You are no longer on Qingzhu Island, so I just gave up."
"Haha, this guy is quite talented!"
Lei Ren's mood was inexplicably complicated.
…
After walking out of the outpost, Lei Ren saw a group of people rushing toward him before he had even taken a few steps. Before he could see the people clearly, the leader of the group of people flashed.
It was already in front of him.
"What a powerful aura!"
Lei Ren had just reacted in his heart and had already clearly seen the person coming, the owner of Qingzhu Island, Mu Zongnan.
"Hahaha, Thunder Blade, you are finally back! Hahaha..."
Arriving in front of Lei Ren, Mu Zongnan laughed loudly and held Lei Ren's shoulders, feeling particularly happy: "Our genius from Qingzhu Island is back! Hahaha!"
"Disciple Lei Ren came back late, please punish me, the leader." Lei Ren still understood the rules of the Qingzhu Sect and bowed.
Mu Zongnan quickly supported him and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, as long as you come back safely. Once you come back, our Qingzhu Island will have eternal hope! Qingyan asked someone to tell me a few months ago, saying
You have already rushed over from the secular world, and I have been waiting and waiting. Just now Xie Pengfei sent someone to report, I was so happy that I came to greet you personally!"
Lei Ren nodded in agreement and looked into the distance. He saw that those who came out with Mu Zongnan were all young disciples. The elders who used to follow him were no longer there. He couldn't help but sigh.
Mu Zongnan saw Lei Ren's thoughts and said: "In order to defend Qingzhu Island, the elders died, were injured, haha, and the living ones all went to defend Qingzhu Island."
Lei Ren knew in his heart that in Liudao, the conditions for being promoted to elders were to be over forty years old and have a cultivation level above the early Yuan Dan stage; or in other words, to be over thirty years old and above the middle stage of the Yuan Dan stage.
Therefore, although there are more than a dozen elders on Qingzhu Island, the real combat effectiveness of some of them is not even as good as the direct disciples.
"Don't worry, Master, Lei Ren has come back just to fulfill the promise he made when he started. Qingzhu Island has trained me, and I swear to live and die with Qingzhu Island!" Lei Ren looked at Mu Zongnan and said seriously.
"Okay! That's great! With talents like you, Qingzhu Island will never die!"
Mu Zongnan held Lei Ren's hand excitedly, almost bursting into tears. He turned around and said to his followers: "Immediately summon the elders who have no defense duties on the island and all the direct disciples who are still alive. I want to announce something.
I want to grant Thunder Blade the position of elder of Qingzhu Island!"
