A third-level monster is equivalent to a human’s golden elixir.
Moreover, due to their strong bodies and many innate magical powers, they are generally stronger than monks of the same level.
Being targeted by such a being, can Zhen Zong really be able to stop it?
Unless...the ancestor comes out of seclusion.
Chen Li was worried. If he hadn't been worried about being hit by the third-level monster, he would have wanted to escape from the mountain gate right now, or at worst, go to Stanley City of the Fire Cloud Sect to make a living.
The Fire Cloud Sect is a major sect of the Nascent Soul, so it is safe and sound. With its superb talisman-making skills, no matter how expensive the prices are, it can still have "no worries about food and clothing".
Xia Hongyi, the head of the general affairs department, quickly came over in a hurry.
"Head of General Affairs, you have to make an idea!"
"Yeah, I'll do whatever you say!"
"I don't have any good ideas. Didn't I ask you to come over and discuss it?" Xia Hongyi sighed.
After all, he is not the ancestor of Jindan. As the chief steward of the sect, the head of the general affairs does not have the majesty to make decisions, and he even shows himself as a good old man.
"How about hiring foreign help? When I was traveling, I once met an ancestor who practiced Jindan. He can do things for a fee, but the price is very high."
"I'm afraid it won't lead the wolf into the house, no, no, no."
Before Xia Hongyi could open his mouth, he was immediately rejected.
…
Everyone discussed and discussed until it was almost dark, and finally decided to close the door tightly and guard the mountain gate.
A group of foundation builders filed out of the hall.
Just when they reached the open space in front of the hall, a Qi-training disciple hurried over and said sadly: "Master of the general affairs, all uncles, Uncle Luo Shenluo is gone!"
Xia Hongyi was startled when he heard this. He couldn't believe the bad news and muttered to himself: "How could it be?"
"It's so sudden. I had a chat with fellow Taoist Luo a few days ago." Zhou Yuanpeng said sadly.
Chen Li looked silent when he heard this. Luo Shen was one of the five middle-stage foundation builders of the Huanzhen Sect. He was usually responsible for the general affairs of the Shigong Hall. He was also the oldest among them. This was the person who accompanied him in the initiation ceremony.
Many of the foundation builders had sad expressions on their faces. They undoubtedly had a deeper relationship with Luo Shen, and some had even known each other for most of their lives, which was certainly not comparable to Chen Li.
"Reporting to the head of the general affairs department, when he heard the bell, it was said that Uncle Luo was very excited and wanted to rush over. Several disciples who were serving him finally persuaded him, but in the end, it was just a cup of tea. Uncle Luo was very excited.
His energy level was not good, he had been sitting on a chair and taking a nap, and he had already passed away by the time he found out." said the qi training disciple.
"Lao Luo can be regarded as having passed away. This is a happy death!" Xia Hongyi sighed, feeling in his heart that good fortune and misfortune never come alone. Although birth, old age, illness and death are human nature, dying at this critical moment is really not a good sign.
When something like this happens, it's naturally not easy to go back to each other's houses and go back home.
A group of people rushed to the Luo Mansion located inside the sect.
A 240-year-old Zhu Ji is often followed by a large family, with several generations living in the sect.
There was a loud cry inside, as if the sky was falling. When Xia Hongyi came in with a group of foundation builders, several old people from the Luo family wearing sackcloth and mourning quickly surrounded them.
"Head of the General Affairs Bureau, our ancestor has passed away, what will we do in the future?"
"For the sake of our ancestors, can we, the Luo family, continue to live in the sect?"
…
The Luo family members were all talking about it.
Dealing with the posthumous affairs of Zhuji has always been the most troublesome, especially for some older Zhujis. Not only do they have many wives and concubines, but they also have many children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. In the end, they can have hundreds of people. Although the principle
There is a limit on the number of relatives that can be brought into the foundation building inside the gate.
But principles are principles, and besides principles there are also human feelings and sophistication.
If Zhuji wants to have more concubines, should he still care about them?
If you have more children, can you bear to be separated and live in two places?
It is human nature to want your grandson to live with you and enjoy family happiness!
…
All these things can only turn a blind eye in the end, which is also a chronic disease in the family.
Fortunately, Foundation Builder will always die!
The pension that deserves the pension.
The preferential treatment.
It makes no sense that the foundation building is dead and hundreds of people from a large family are still staying inside the mountain gate.
However, Xia Hongyi was so anxious at the moment that he was not in the mood to deal with such a matter. He could only cheer up and comfort him, promising to let the Luo family stay for a while, and then move out of the mountain gate when he was ready.
…
Chen Li paid homage and then walked out of Luo Mansion with Xiao Yuan.
"I think Ji Kai is getting closer!" Xiao Yuan exclaimed: "The last time I saw him, I found that Fang Yintang's dark energy was already looming, which is obviously a sign that the end is approaching."
"It's such a troubled time! It's hard to say whether we can get through this safely," Chen Li said.
The two looked at each other and sighed.
…
night.
afterwards!
"I have been able to accompany you for so many years. Even if I die now, my life will still be worth it."
After the joy, Zhou Hong snuggled into Chen Li's arms and murmured.
"Don't talk about being immortal and nothing will happen. Besides, the level of Zhenzong's mountain-protecting formation is not low. Generally, the golden elixir cannot be broken in a short period of time. Maybe the monster will retreat in due course." Chen
Li hugged Zhou Hong, stroked her gently, and comforted her softly.
"Don't make trouble!" Zhou Hong grabbed Chen Li's strange hand angrily: "I just want to express my feelings. Okay, you can go!"
"Ah!?" Chen Li couldn't react.
"Stupid, go and comfort Lady Shu." Zhou Hong looked at his stupid look and laughed "Pfft".
Chen Li thought of Zhang Shuniang's dream, a dimly lit cabin, a lonely young figure, always alert to the disturbance outside like a deer. Perhaps she had always lacked a sense of security, and she really needed more company at this time.
Oh, why did you make it so troublesome? If I had known, I would have pulled them onto the same bed.
Chen Li had no choice but to get up, get dressed, and go to Zhang Shuniang's room.
…
The next day during the day.
Chen Li finally saw the figure of the third-level monster.
This is a big bird.
The feathers are pure white, shaped like a white crane, and the red beak is as sharp as a thorn.
Under the dazzling summer sunshine, it was covered with a layer of light, looking holy and elegant. It wandered around in circles in the sky, sometimes flying lower, sometimes making a sharp cry, but
Stop probing and provoking!
This is a cautious bird.
Perhaps its past encounters taught it a lesson, and it was quite patient. It lingered for more than several hours without launching an attack. Just like yesterday, it pooped a puddle of bird droppings in the air and then quickly disappeared.
For the next few days, it would wander here for a while every day and deflate a few pieces of bird droppings.
It flew lower and lower, and its screams became more ferocious, and finally it even gave the mountain guard a claw. Although it quickly disappeared into the distance as if it was escaping.
But Chen Li knew that this might be the final test.
