Lu Chen heard these words on the side, and the light in his eyes flashed a few times.
Suddenly, he heard a cold snort, followed the sound, and saw several handsome young men and women, all dressed extremely cleanly and neatly, with a rather bookish air.
Among them, there was a tall and handsome young man who looked at Lu Chen with disgust and snorted coldly.
When Lu Chen looked at this person, he showed a strange expression, because this person was clearly Zhou Yuan from the Confucian Academy.
The well-groomed and square-faced Fang Daocheng stood beside him.
He looked at Lu Chen, whose face was pockmarked, frowned slightly, and said, "Junior brother Zhou, let's go."
Zhou Yuan withdrew his gaze from Lu Chen in disgust, as if looking at him one more time would pollute his own eyes, and followed Fang Daocheng's footsteps and left.
As for several other Confucian Academy disciples, they also followed behind them.
Looking at the two of them leaving, a trace of murderous intent flashed in Lu Chen's eyes.
Both Fang Daocheng and Zhou Yuan wanted to kill him, so Lu Chen would never let them go if given the chance.
However, they were not the only ones here, there were also children from other forces, so Lu Chen could only let go of this idea.
Suddenly, something moved in his mind, and he no longer returned to Tianjian Sect, but followed Fang Daocheng and others to Lingxu Valley.
…
There are many mountains in Zhongzhou, and the Lingkun Mountains is one of them.
This mountain range is located in the southeast of Zhongzhou and stretches for tens of thousands of miles. It has many peaks, countless spiritual peaks, and countless exotic flowers and plants in the mountains. Under the bright sunshine, they bloom from time to time.
Seen from above, the entire Lingkun Mountains look like a giant glowing dragon, showing a majestic atmosphere.
Almost everyone who comes can't help but make a sound of admiration.
According to rumors, in ancient times, a super power stood in this mountain range.
As for the name of that force, it is impossible to find out, but all Zhongzhou warriors know that now, there is a super force established in this mountain range, and that is Lingxu Valley.
Lingxu Valley is a force that ranks at the forefront of the fourteen major sects in Zhongzhou. In addition, this force mainly focuses on alchemy. Eighty percent of the alchemists in Zhongzhou come from this force;
Therefore, no warrior dares to act recklessly here.
Today is the day when Lingxu Valley holds an alchemy competition for outer disciples. The mountain gate is wide open, and dozens or hundreds of disciples stand outside the spectacular mountain gate to welcome people from all forces.
Among them, there are not only the leaders of various sects and sects, but also some well-known strong casual cultivators.
However, when they came to the mountain gate of Lingxu Valley and faced the protectors and deacons of Lingxu Valley, they did not feel proud at all, even for those who were lower in cultivation and weaker than them.
Be polite.
There is no way around this. Who said Lingxu Valley is one of the top forces in Zhongzhou?
Of course, the key reason is that there are too many alchemists in Lingxu Valley. When they need some kind of elixir, they will most likely seek help from these alchemists.
Especially the elders in Lingxu Valley, those who are seventh-level alchemists and above, even those who are powerful in the Heaven-Tongtian Realm do not dare to put on airs in front of them.
Of course, the people in Lingxu Valley would not deliberately show an arrogant attitude, because these people came here at the invitation of Lingxu Valley to conduct an alchemy competition with the outer disciples of Lingxu Valley.
This is also an opportunity for Lingxu Valley to forge good relationships with major forces and families.
After all, even as the top force in Zhongzhou, Lingxu Valley still does not dare to antagonize other major forces.
Because they know very well that there are too many forces in Zhongzhou that are jealous of Lingxu Valley, including many of the top forces.
Therefore, under such circumstances, they will not leave the image of Lingxu Valley as domineering and unscrupulous to these people.
If Lu Chen hadn't known about the virtues of Ling Xudu, the great elder of Lingxu Valley, his disciple Qianyuan, and the so-called inner sect disciple Long Xiao, Lu Chen would have been deceived by what Lingxu Valley showed.
.
He sneered twice in his heart, and after Fang Daocheng and others entered for a while, he swaggered up.
When the people around him saw Lu Chen with a pockmarked face, they showed more or less disgust, especially those young and beautiful women who looked at Lu Chen like flies and were afraid to avoid him.
Regarding this, Lu Chen pretended not to see it and walked into the Qianlingxu Valley to receive the disciples.
One of the receiving disciples came forward and said: "I'm sorry, today is the day when our Lingxu Valley holds an alchemy competition for outer disciples. If you don't have an invitation, you can't go in. Please invite your friends back."
"Take it."
If Lu Chen hadn't seen the look of disgust in his eyes, he might have been deceived by this person, so he deliberately picked his nose with his fingers, then took out a purple-gold invitation card from his arms and placed it on the
This person has it in his hands.
This Lingxu Valley disciple didn't expect Lu Chen to actually have an invitation, and was stunned.
Lu Chen said angrily: "What are you doing standing still? Is this invitation a fake?"
"No, no, please, please." The Lingxu Valley disciple woke up after hearing this, hurriedly stepped out of the way, and invited Lu Chen to come in.
"Haha, Lingxu Valley is better. They didn't kick me out because I was ugly." Lu Chen patted the Lingxu Valley disciple's shoulder with his hand and said with a smile.
"What did my friend say? We, Lingxu Valley, are hospitable and welcome friends from all over the world. How can we judge people by their appearance?" After this Lingxu Valley disciple said this, he saw that Lu Chen had already walked in with a swagger.
Suddenly, he found several handprints on his shoulders, and then he remembered that Lu Chen had slapped his shoulders with the hand that had just picked his nostrils, which immediately made the Lingxu Valley disciple feel like vomiting.
Feel.
He said extremely disgustingly: "How can this person have an invitation? Couldn't the sect send it by mistake?"
"Who knows, maybe this person is the disciple of the senior casual cultivator. After all, most of these people are bold and unrestrained and don't care about cleanliness." One of the receiving disciples said.
"Forget it, since he has an invitation, can we not let him in?" The receptionist who said this glanced at Lu Chen's back and felt that something was about to happen.
"Hey, luckily I was prepared and grabbed an invitation from someone else, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to get in."
Looking at the spiritual trees, spiritual flowers, pavilions and pavilions in Lingxu Valley, Lu Chen couldn't help but think happily.
Along the way, he also saw people from various forces and families.
Among them, there are also many elders, protectors, and disciples from the fourteen major forces in Zhongzhou.
From this we can see how high the reputation of Lingxu Valley is in Zhongzhou.
It is no exaggeration to say that even the Tianjian Sect cannot match this.
In addition, Lu Chen also saw many elders, protectors, and disciples of Lingxu Valley. Each of them was wearing clothes with a tripod embroidered on the chest. Different colors represented different identities.
This is similar to the rules of various sects in Zhongzhou.
After walking for half an hour, Lu Chen finally finished walking along the stone path.
At the end of the stone path, there are two magnificent and tall peaks, thousands of feet high, reaching into the sky.
Between these two peaks, there is a gateway.
Lu Chen walked in, and after a while, his eyes lit up, and a huge basin-shaped valley appeared in front of him.
In the center of the valley is a square with a radius of ten thousand feet. The ground is paved with hard gray glazed stones. It has been swept clean and spotless.
The square was surrounded by rows of stone benches. From bottom to top, Lu Chen estimated that it could accommodate 100,000 people. The scene was extremely grand.
It is indeed the Lingxu Valley!
Although Lu Chen had no good impression of Lingxu Valley at all, he couldn't help but admire it at this moment.
"Hey, I didn't expect them to come too."
Looking around, what Lu Chen didn't expect was that he saw many familiar people;
In addition to Fang Daocheng and Zhou Yuan who were seen outside, Zhao Zichuan and Feng Shenyu from the Five Poison Sect; Song Clan from the Kaiyang Sect; Tuo Bazhen from the Juling Sect; and Sha Xingtian from the Three God Sect also came.
What was most beyond Lu Chen's expectations was that he also met Zhu Daoji, the elder of Dan Pavilion of Tianjian Sect, and Qin Zong, the top disciple of the inner sect.
Seeing this, Lu Chen's heart moved. His cheap master Wu Lengchan and Ling Xudu are enemies. I wonder if they are here?
Unfortunately, he searched several times but could not see Wu Lengchan, which made Lu Chen a little disappointed.
After thinking about it, he stopped looking because he was worried that his other actions would attract the attention of interested people. After all, this was the territory of Lingxu Valley.
Moreover, Lingxu Valley takes this matter very seriously. Just look at the Lingxu Valley disciples standing around and you will know that if someone causes trouble, they will take action without hesitation.
Therefore, Lu Chen calmly found a place to sit down.
I don’t know whether he did it intentionally or not, but he found a seat near the front and sat down.
In fact, Lu Chen wanted to sit in the first three rows, because here he could watch up close the scene where the disciples from the outer sect of Lingxu Valley would be refining alchemy later.
However, the first three rows are occupied by well-known sects and families from all sides. A non-sectarian cultivator like him would not be able to get in without an invitation.
I don't know what happened, but after sitting down for a while, Lu Chen found that no one wanted to sit next to him. Even if there were a few people who came, they all sat in the back after seeing his appearance.
This made Lu Chen extremely depressed. If he had known that people nowadays judge people by their appearance, he would have been more handsome.
Two hours passed.
Suddenly, a group of people came out of Lingxu Valley in a mighty manner, and he was still familiar with the first few people.
The one in the middle is the owner of Lingxu Valley, Bu Tianhong;
Qianyuan's master, Ling Xudu, the great elder of Lingxu Valley, and Wu Huaian, who was chased away by cheap master Wu Lengchan in Taixu Valley, were standing on the left and right of Bu Tianhong.
"The sect leader has arrived, the great elder has arrived!"
The moment they walked out, a deacon from Lingxu Valley shouted in each direction, and the sound waves rolled and spread throughout the valley.
Everyone suddenly became quiet.
Lu Chen also watched quietly, and saw Tianhong walking out, with a kind smile on his face, like a benevolent elder, looking around, nodding to the consuls of various sects, sects, and major families.
Then, he said: "Everyone, thank you for coming to my Lingxu Valley to watch this sect's outer disciples' alchemy competition. I would like to thank you all on behalf of Lingxu Valley."
After saying this, he bowed to everyone, which immediately received warm applause from everyone.
Bu Tianhong waved his hands slightly, and everyone stopped applauding immediately, and then heard him say: "This time for the outer disciples' alchemy competition, Wu Huaian, the elder of our sect, will serve as the main judge, and the other twelve elders will serve as the judging panel.
Select the disciple who is the best in alchemy from the outer sect."
Everyone applauded again, very enthusiastically, which gave Lingxu Valley a great deal of face.
This also made Bu Tianhong, as the sect leader, very happy.
He firmly believed that after this round of alchemy competition among outer disciples, the reputation of Lingxu Valley in Zhongzhou would be even higher, reaching a level of importance that would surpass that of Tianhuang Palace.
