Vacuum Gate, the power of the thirteen major forces in Zhongzhou, belongs to the three gates.
According to Lu Chen's understanding, this Vacuum Sect is different from other sects in that it is neither built on the mountains nor built on the mountains like the Confucian Academy, but is built in a stone forest.
This stone forest is called Huan Zhenxu!
The world is extremely vast, as far as thousands of miles away.
Lu Chen stood on the outside and at a glance, he could see the endless stone forest.
In the stone forest, the rocks stand tall and strange, with various postures, like chickens, monkeys, tigers, peaches, and sky pillars...
Under the sunlight, these rocks with different shapes bloom with strange brilliance, as if they contain life, which is amazing.
In addition, there are several stone paths in the stone forest, which are paved with gray-white granite, extending from the outside in, like vacuum doors.
It is worth mentioning that the further inside, the larger the standing rocks become, ranging from as big as a house to as big as a mountain.
The disciples of the Vacuum Sect opened houses among the huge rocks as residences;
Especially in the central area of Nahuan Zhenxu, there are huge rocks measuring thousands of feet.
Because it contains minerals, it is extremely hard, so it is not a problem to dig out a palace, let alone a house.
The mountain gate of the Vacuum Sect is located in the middle of several rocks shaped like pillars of heaven. There are dozens of disciples guarding the outside. They are all wearing armor and holding weapons. The guards seem much stricter than other sects.
After a while, Lu Chen walked up.
Seeing this mountain gate up close, he couldn't help but show surprise on his face;
Because he discovered that the entire vacuum gate was centered on the mountain gate, and a huge formation was arranged.
In other words, it seems that you can enter the vacuum door from any direction, but you can only enter through this mountain door.
Moreover, with so many guarding disciples, it would be extremely difficult for outsiders to enter.
"Who?"
While Lu Chen was still looking at the formation, the guardian disciple had already spotted him. Seeing that he was wearing a non-vacuum sect disciple, he immediately asked.
"I'm Lu Chen, a disciple of Tianjian Sect. I'm here this time to meet my friend Ning Xiaochuan."
Lu Chen took out the identity token of a disciple of the Tianjian Sect, then handed it over, and finally added: "His master is the protector of your sect, Han Shanhe."
"Ning Xiaochuan?"
A kind of disciple guarding the mountain looked at Lu Chen with a strange expression and eyes. One of them asked: "Are you really Ning Xiaochuan's friend?"
"Of course, if you don't believe it, you can ask him." Lu Chen said.
"No, come with me. I'll take you to find him. He should be competing now." A burly disciple with short hair suddenly glanced at Lu Chen, showing surprise, and then stepped forward.
said.
"Competition?" Lu Chen said in surprise.
"Well, today is the day of our annual competition for outer disciples. Although Ning Xiaochuan is a disciple of Protector Han Shanhe, he is not an inner disciple, so he still has to participate." The burly young man explained.
Lu Chen nodded slightly, and then took a look at this disciple of Shoushan. He found that he had a wide face, long body, and a cultivation level in the middle stage of the Xuantian realm.
"Friends, have you ever participated in a trip to Taixu Valley?" Lu Chen asked hesitantly.
"That's right." The man nodded and said with a smile, 'My name is Han Zhen, and my trip to Taixu Valley made me hear a lot of rumors about you, Brother Lu.'
"It's just a fluke." Lu Chen waved his hand and said.
"I heard Lord Song mentioned you." Han Zhen smiled and suddenly said seriously.
"Brother Han knows the Song clan?" Lu Chen asked in surprise.
"He and I are old friends." Han Zhen nodded and said seriously to Lu Chen, 'Brother Lu, let's compare notes if we have a chance. I also want to see the power of Jian Ao.'
Lu Chen was stunned when he heard this, and then heard Han Zhen say: "I am a gunman."
"Ahem, if there is a chance, Lu will definitely not postpone it." Lu Chen coughed twice.
This Han Zhen is able to interact with the Song clan, and he is also a spear warrior. I am afraid that his strength will not be weaker than that of the Song clan, and he will definitely be a formidable opponent.
Han Zhen smiled noncommittally upon hearing this. After walking for several miles, he pointed in front of him and said, "This competition for the outer disciples will be held there."
Lu Chen looked in the direction of his finger and suddenly showed a look of surprise, because what Han Zhen was pointing to was a big mountain.
It is said to be a mountain, but it is actually a stone. However, this stone is too big, with a width of more than a thousand feet and a height of several hundred feet. It is not an exaggeration to call it a mountain.
And right on top of this mountain, the sound of a huge crowd of people could be heard.
Lu Chen took a closer look and saw that there were dozens of high platforms on top, shrouded in defensive light curtains, inside which there were two disciples competing fiercely.
Under each high platform, there were hundreds or thousands of Vacuum Sect disciples standing. Some were observing quietly, some were meditating, some were shouting, and some were shouting. Their expressions were so different that it is difficult to describe them all.
"Let's go."
Han Zhen seemed very satisfied with Lu Chen's shocked look, and walked ahead with a smile, closing the distance to the mountain.
It seems to be more than ten miles away, but for a warrior like Han Zhen, it only takes time to eat and drink.
However, what shocked him was that no matter how fast he was, Lu Chen could keep up with him.
He who originally had some doubts about Lu Chen's strength no longer had any doubts.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the outskirts of the mountain.
As a disciple of Shoushan, Han Zhen still has a lot of reputation in the middle stage of Xuantian realm. When many vacuum sects saw him, they all called him "senior brother Han".
However, when they saw Lu Chen, they all showed doubts;
Because Lu Chen only has the cultivation level of three-star Wuji Realm, why should he let this 'Senior Brother Han' personally lead the way?
Could it be that he is a relative or friend of Senior Brother Han?
Lu Chen understood this clearly and smiled bitterly in his heart, but on the surface he was very calm and began to look at the situation above.
At this time, Han Zhen suddenly said: "Brother Lu, come with me. Junior Brother Ning Xiaochuan is on the competition stage over there."
Lu Chen heard this and looked around, and sure enough he saw Ning Xiaochuan on a high platform not far away.
This friend is still the same as before, handsome and handsome, and his movements are extremely coquettish, which caused many female disciples in the audience to cheer and cheer him on.
And Ning Xiaochuan was also very proud, looking confident.
His cultivation level, as Lu Chen expected, has reached the level of Six-Star Infinite Realm.
Judging from the martial arts power he has displayed, I am afraid that he has entered this realm for some time, and is not far away from breaking through to the Nine-Star Infinite Realm.
Lu Chen couldn't help but admired twice when he saw this.
Han Zhen said with a smile: "Junior brother Ning Xiaochuan has a good talent and is loved by Elder Han Shanhe. Of course, he is also loved by many female disciples."
"There are indeed quite a few." Lu Chen looked at the female disciples cheering for Ning Xiaochuan. There were dozens of them. This was enough to imagine Ning Xiaochuan's popularity.
Sure enough, with Young Master Ning's temperament, he would never do badly wherever he went.
By this time, Ning Xiaochuan had already defeated his opponent.
The female disciples immediately cheered when they saw this, attracting jealous looks from many male disciples.
Ning Xiaochuan laughed heartily, fearing that the male disciples would not see him, so he chatted with the female disciples in a grand manner, showing off his playboy methods.
"Junior brother Ning."
Seeing this, Han Zhen shook his head and called out to Ning Xiaochuan.
"Senior Brother Han?"
Ning Xiaochuan looked over and immediately saw Lu Chen. His eyes suddenly lit up and he said with great joy: "Master Lu."
As he spoke, he strode over, hugged Chen Lu tightly, and laughed loudly: "I knew you would come."
Lu Chen smiled slightly, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Mr. Ning, you are getting better and better."
"Pull him down. Although it seems that your cultivation level is lower than mine, I am definitely not your opponent." Ning Xiaochuan said disapprovingly.
Seeing how deep the brotherhood between Lu Chen and Ning Xiaochuan was, Han Zhen was quite envious, and then said: "Brother Lu, since you brothers have gotten together, I will leave first."
"Thank you." Lu Chen said.
Han Zhen nodded indifferently, left here, and went to guard the mountain gate again.
"Senior Brother Han brought you here?" Ning Xiaochuan asked in surprise.
"Brother Han is very enthusiastic." Lu Chen replied.
"Enthusiasm? I'm afraid only Mr. Lu can say that." Ning Xiaochuan looked strange. Seeing Lu Chen's confusion, he explained, "Senior Brother Han is a disciple of Shoushan. He has a serious personality and always puts on a different face when meeting everyone."
Many people don't want to get close to him.'
"Master Lu, if Senior Brother Han treats you like this, could it be that your strength has reached the middle stage of Xuantian Realm?" Ning Xiaochuan said with a shocked look on his face.
"Not even close." Lu Chen shook his head, looked around, and asked, 'How about it, are you confident in the comparison test?'
When Ning Xiaochuan heard this, he said with a smile: "Of course I am confident, but I don't have much chance of winning against those brothers in the Nine-Star Infinite Realm. Fortunately, Master also knows this, so he asked me to treat this competition as a test.
Do a trial to enhance your basic strength so that you can break through the Nine-Star Infinite Realm quickly."
"Your master is right." Lu Chen said with deep feeling, 'If you want to do well in Zhongzhou, you can't do it without strength.'
"By the way, Mr. Lu, my competition will start soon. After it's over, we brothers will have a good chat," Ning Xiaochuan said.
"Okay." Lu Chen nodded.
After a while, Ning Xiaochuan came on stage again.
After two competitions, he encountered an opponent with the Nine-Star Infinite Realm and ended in failure.
In the afternoon, he took Lu Chen to a rock outside the mountain, which was also a hundred feet high. Several stone houses were carved on it, and the walls were inlaid with lighting stones, making the light in the stone houses very soft.
Inside the house, there are stone tables and chairs, all of which are very clean and spotless.
Ning Xiaochuan brought a pot of tea, poured a cup for Lu Chen, and said with a smile: "Lu Chen, tell me how your life is in Tianjian Sect?"
“Not bad.”
Lu Chen thought of his Nian Xu life in Tianjian Sect, and did not hide it from Ning Xiaochuan, and told him one by one.
Then, he also told Ning Xiaochuan about meeting Ming Aoyao and Gu Sisi.
"Young Master Ming hopes to reach the Xuantian realm as soon as possible and then bring Guo Min to Zhongzhou."
Ning Xiaochuan said this after hearing what happened to Ming Aoyou.
When he heard about Gu Sisi, especially after her master Murong Qiu prevented Lu Chen from meeting her, Ning Xiaochuan was filled with righteous indignation and gritted his teeth and said: "This old woman is really hateful. I think she is 90% innocent."
Have been in love."
These words made Lu Chen smile, but he agreed, and then said seriously: "No matter what, I will step into the Confucian Academy openly."
"Brother, I will go with you then." Ning Xiaochuan nodded and said.
"By the way, I have one more thing to do this time." Lu Chen said, took out the medicine bottle containing Tian Nie Dan, handed it to Ning Xiaochuan, and said with a smile, 'Open it and take a look.'
"Master Lu, what kind of tricks are you playing?"
Ning Xiaochuan laughed and cursed, opened the bottle, took out the golden Tian Nie Dan and took a look. Feeling the pure medicinal power, his eyes suddenly lit up and he said: "Young Master Lu, what kind of medicine is this? It looks like it is not of high quality."
It’s low.”
"This is Tian Nie Dan." Lu Chen explained, 'I refined a batch of Tian Nie Dan this time, so I brought you one.'
"Is this the Tian Nie Dan?" Ning Xiaochuan's eyes suddenly widened. After looking at it for a long time with a shocked expression, he said happily, "So Mr. Lu, you have become a seventh-level alchemist?"
