Lu Chen opened his eyes, his eyes were dull, without revealing anything.
This means that he has completely stabilized the seventh level of Tuoyue.
If there is a flash of light in your eyes, it means your realm is unstable and elements are surging outside your body.
"Finally we have reached the seventh level of Tuoyue again."
Lu Chen laughed and stood up.
The elements shook, the clothes whirred outward, and the dust dispersed.
"There are two left, and I will take them when I reach the peak of the small realm. Just one bottle for the seventh-level peak, and one bottle for the ninth-level peak."
Lu Chen thought silently in his mind and put the potion back into the space ring.
Ten Qi-boosting potions, although he wasted two of them because of Xu Ruoyang.
But for now, it seems that everything is being put to good use.
I still want to thank Elder Wei Tian for his love for me, which at least relieved me of my urgent need.
From the fourth level of Tuoyue to the current seventh level, one night has not been used up, and the survivability has been greatly improved.
However, when he thought that Tian An actually let Xu Ruoyang deal with him, Lu Chen immediately felt that there was a lot of crisis.
I can't stay in this outer courtyard anymore.
So, he and Wang Kaiding adjusted their breath for a while, adjusted their condition to its peak, and then quietly left Xu Ruoyang's room.
The two people ran towards the mountain gate of the outer courtyard.
There are thousands of disciples in the outer courtyard, and each disciple has a small courtyard, which shows how big the outer courtyard is.
Fortunately, it occupies a huge hilltop, otherwise there really wouldn't be room for so many people.
Lu Chen and Wang Kaiding's legs were not weak, but it took them half an hour to reach the gate of the outer courtyard.
The two of them looked over in the darkness and saw the light of fire flashing at the entrance to the outer courtyard.
This is a guard post.
The so-called one sentry at five steps and one post at ten steps.
The mountain gate of the outer courtyard is the only place to enter the outer courtyard, so there are many guards arranged.
Lu Chen said: "Xiao Kai, we can't leave together, I guess there are people from Yutianmen under Mulin here.
If I go out first, I will definitely be stared at.
So, you go first.
Although they know that we have a close relationship, they won't be overly suspicious if you go out."
"Okay, Brother Chen, I'm leaving then.
They may not have received a message from the inner sect about your repair work in the Zi Mansion, so they won't be keeping an eye on it too closely.
After I leave successfully, Brother Chen must also take care of himself!"
Wang Kaiding hugged Lu Chen hard, and then strode towards the sentry post.
"Who!"
A man holding a torch stopped Wang Kaiding and shouted: "What are you doing at night!"
"Go out and practice."
Wang Kaiding's expression was calm.
It’s not like he has no experience, he understands the process and is not afraid.
"You're going out to practice so late at night. If you're in such a hurry, why don't you wait until dawn tomorrow?"
The man guarding the post looked at Wang Kaiding with burning eyes.
He is quite old, in his thirties, but he has only reached the ninth level. This has been the case for the rest of his life, and he can only make a living by working as a guard in the outer courtyard.
However, he was doing his duty faithfully. He looked at Wang Kaiding and insisted on an answer.
Wang Kaiding calmly took out his outer disciple token and said: "Brother, this is my disciple token.
The reason why I'm so anxious to go out is that I didn't finish things during the previous training.
Because I had to rush back to participate in the foreign sect competition, I asked for leave from my client.
Now that the competition is over and my strength has improved a little, I have to rush back to finish the matter.
After all, people are still waiting.
If I delay for too long, it will affect the client's evaluation of our Yanyue College."
The middle-aged guard nodded when he heard this and said: "Then you should leave quickly, don't let our Yanyue College lose its reputation!"
He returned the identity card to Wang Kaiding, then took a defensive stance against the sentry guards behind him, letting everyone pass.
Wang Kaiding bowed his hand to him and strode away.
Lu Chen looked at Wang Kaiding's back and silently breathed a sigh of relief.
Now, he only needs to wait for an hour and a half before he can leave.
Rushing to a big tree with leafy branches, Lu Chen took advantage of the waiting time to practice the Ping Yixin method.
Before I knew it, two hours had passed.
Lu Chen calculated the time and felt that it was almost done. He was afraid that it would be dawn in another hour and there would be more trouble.
So he jumped down and walked to the sentry post.
"Who!"
The middle-aged guard from before shouted again.
Lu Chen took out his identity card and said: "Lu Chen, a disciple of the Chunyang Outer Sect, wants to go out for training. Please let me go, brother guard."
"Lu Chen?"
The guard came over, looked at Lu Chen's face carefully, and said in surprise: "Are you really Lu Chen? I haven't seen you in three years.
I remember you haven’t been out since you came back from injury three years ago. Why are you interested in going out to practice today?
Hey, no, has your Zi Mansion been repaired?"
The guard was suddenly pleasantly surprised: "I heard some words today, saying that you were first in the competition and got a recovery potion as a reward. I still don't believe it.
But now it seems that you have really restored Zi Mansion.
Great, I can see you going out to practice often."
"You know me?"
Lu Chen said in surprise.
The middle-aged guard explained: "Back then, you were extremely talented and worked hard, so you would go out to practice every once in a while.
I often use you as a role model for my son.
I have brought my son over to see you several times, and he admires you the most.
Of course, a genius like you will not remember little people like us."
Lu Chen said: "In three years, I have forgotten many people. But the guard brother looks familiar, but he has never spoken to him."
"Yes, today is the first time we have spoken. My name is Che Yongan.
My son’s name is Che Zhiyun, and he is already an inner disciple.
It’s all thanks to you being his role model that he works so hard.”
The middle-aged guard smiled.
All this time, he had been watching this talented boy silently.
Today he finally spoke to this genius and told him his name. He was vaguely excited.
When his son comes to visit him in the future, he can show it to him: I am talking to your idol.
hey-hey.
Lu Chen saw Che Yongan's expression, smiled, and said, "Brother Che Yongan, I remember your name. Thank you for supporting me silently."
Che Yong'an smiled naively: "Many people support you. After all, everyone can see your character."
Lu Chen nodded and smiled, but said nothing.
Can everyone really see it?
I'm afraid only adults like you can still have some sense. Most young people are fools who have been deceived by others.
"Brother Lu Chen, you see, I wasted a lot of time just talking to you.
I’ll give you the token, go out and practice.
It’s still a little dark, so we’ll wait until daybreak before leaving our town at the foot of the mountain.”
Che Yongan kindly reminded me.
Lu Chen nodded and said, "Thank you, brother Che Yong'an. See you later."
After saying that, he left quickly.
Along the way, many sentry guards cast surprised looks, including a few cryptic looks, with a hint of surprise and restlessness.
Lu Chen didn't need to look at it to know that this must be Mulin's lackey from the Yutian Clan.
I really want to leave at night, I can't waste time in the town at the foot of the mountain, otherwise things will change if I am too late!
Rub rub rub.
Lu Chen's footsteps were like the wind, and he jumped down the Waizong Mountain at an extremely fast speed.
When he came to the town, he spent a little money to buy a strong horse, and then drove away quickly.
At noon, we arrived at Bailong Town.
Bailong Town is named because there are often dark clouds in the sky here.
But that was a long time ago. There are not even dark clouds to be seen in Bailong Town now, let alone dark clouds.
The sky is bright and the sun is shining brightly.
Lu Chen changed his clothes and dressed up again. He also had a scar on his face, a straw hat on his head, and a newly bought long knife hanging on his waist.
In this disguise, unless someone is very close to him, such as Wang Kaiding, he will only notice him if he gets close.
Others, don't think of seeing through him easily.
He is now pretending to be an unknown swordsman wandering around the world, living a life of licking blood from the tip of his sword, and no one dares to approach him.
When Lu Chen came to the inn dressed like this, the waiter became nervous.
"Bring a pot of wine and a pound of beef."
Lu Chen said with a loud voice and his eyes were as sharp as knives. The waiter only dared to cowardly agree and did not dare to look directly.
While he was drinking and eating meat, he carefully listened to the conversations around him.
This is his past experience.
Instead of wandering into some forest or mountain range, let’s eavesdrop on people’s conversations in the inn.
Maybe someone from all walks of life will come out and say something interesting.
For example, three years ago, he and Mu Lin went to the Xuanming Mountains because they heard someone saying that the Xuanming Mountains had the inheritance of the Sword Sect.
If it hadn't been for this news, they wouldn't have gone to the Xuanming Mountains, let alone gotten the Juxi Sword Manual.
The charlatans in the inn are not that powerful, but with some gossip, it's worth trying your luck.
Moreover, Lu Chen was born with sharp ears and eyes, and could hear other people's conversations even from a great distance.
He was able to do this before, but now his subtle control and internal spiritual power allow him to hear more clearly and understandably.
At this time, Lu Chen heard some interesting news.
A man said mysteriously: "Thirty years ago, black clouds were billowing in Bailong Town, but now there is not even a trace of black clouds visible in Bailong Town.
Moreover, throughout the year, Bailong Town has many sunny days and few rainy days, and has never even seen snowy days.
This climate is completely different from before, do you know why?"
"I don't know, and I don't need to know. It's just a natural phenomenon."
One person said disdainfully: "In our eastern region, many places will experience sudden changes in weather and abnormal climate.
It's just some martial arts masters who broke through the realm and affected climate change."
"Hey!"
The person in front was unhappy and cursed: "You know nothing!
What kind of strong people are there? The only strong ones near our Bailong Town are the Yanyue Academy and the Blood Knife Sect. How come they don’t affect their own sects, but instead affect our Bailong Town?
Let me tell you, the problem in Bailong Town lies in the Black Cloud Mountains!"
Lu Chen pricked up his ears, stopped drinking, and listened carefully.
The old man lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "Thirty years ago, a divine object descended from the sky and happened to fall into the Black Cloud Mountains.
This magical object is called the Black Cloud Bead, which can absorb the black energy of heaven and earth..."
"ha!"
The sloppy man sneered again and said: "It can absorb the black energy of the world, why is it not called a black energy bead, but a black cloud bead?"
The old man took a sip and cursed: "You are so fucking mentally ill, you don't even understand shit and you still love ****.
Clouds are the condensation of Qi, and black clouds are the condensation of black Qi, which is more intense than black Qi.
If you don't believe that this black cloud bead can absorb the black energy of heaven and earth, you can go out and have a look.
In the sky, if you look carefully, you will find thin lines of black air drilling into the Black Cloud Mountains.
I'm definitely not talking nonsense, people from Yanyue Academy and Blood Blade Sect even came here to check it out."
When everyone heard this, they immediately ran out and looked at the sky.
As a result, nothing can be seen.
Everyone laughed loudly, thinking that the old man was talking nonsense, and dispersed.
The old man shook his head and sighed.
Suddenly a pot of wine was placed in front of him. A hoarse and deep voice sounded: "What you said is interesting. Tell me, after checking Yanyue Academy and Blood Knife Sect, what results did you get?"
