Chapter 346 There are always unscrupulous people who want to harm me
Chen Shen had no choice but to put down his sleeves and said with an innocent face: "Ah? No, there is sand in my grandson's eyes. He is rubbing them..."
"You are so careless with me!"
Chen Zangfeng scolded him angrily, and then asked: "Why were you brought to the palace by Dean Liao? Could it be that you caused some trouble again?"
The young man immediately cast his innocent eyes on Liao Cangmang, and the old guy smiled calmly: "General Chen, I misunderstood. It was the dean who asked him to help."
Immediately afterwards, in a few words, he told everything about solving the mystery of the mutated elements.
In his words, the old man did not forget to highlight Chen Shen's great righteousness for the country, and he did not hesitate to be so generous that he would even sacrifice 10% of his soul power to help.
Hearing this, the old general's expression changed from gloomy to clear: "Humph, that's pretty much it."
Immediately, he bowed his hand to Liao Cangmang and said: "Dean Liao, I have nothing to do. I would like to observe your process of solving the puzzle of Beidou Wind, Fire and Thunder. Is it possible for me to do it conveniently?"
"No problem." The other party nodded immediately.
Beidou, wind, fire and thunder, is not a secret thing in Daxia. Moreover, in the early years, the King of Daxia also invited General Tongchen to study its secrets together, so I guess he would not avoid it.
"Then I'll be troubled a lot!"
Chen Zangfeng said politely, and then turned his interested eyes to Chen Shen, as if to say: "Bad boy, how can I hide you this time? When the puzzle is completed, I will take you home directly.
Let's settle the accounts carefully..."
At this point, Chen Shen could do nothing but smile helplessly and could only accept his fate: "Alas! After all, I can't escape the fate of being nagged by the old man..."
The three of them walked to the side hall, where a young eunuch who had been ordered to be here led them into the Locking Soul Palace.
The origin of the name of Soul Locking Palace is the meaning of locking the spirit of mutated elements "Beidou Wind, Fire and Thunder".
The palace hall is not vast, but it is still magnificently decorated, and the royal nobility is clearly displayed.
Sitting on the main seat is a middle-aged man with a lazy look, who is the current King of Great Xia: Xia Yuanlong.
Your Highness, a total of forty-two people are sitting in a circle.
When Chen Shen was in the Hundred Schools League, the five giants in the Danxia world who had met once before were now among them.
In addition, Shao Wenkai, an old enemy, is also on the list.
Shao Wenkai has a lowly character, but the alchemy skills inherited by his Shao family for nearly a thousand years are not false. At the age of sixty, he has achieved a five-star level of alchemy at the Xuan level!
Looking at the entire Great Xia, except for the five giants who were worshiped by the imperial court and the dean of the Imperial Academy, Liao Cangmang, in terms of alchemy skills alone, he, Shao Wenkai, was the most proficient.
Therefore, it was reasonable for the King of Great Xia to seek him out to discover the nature of the mutated elemental spirits for him.
As for the other people, Chen Shen couldn't recognize them at all.
"According to Dean Liao, one must be an alchemist above the Xuan realm to be qualified to solve the riddle of Beidou, Wind, Fire and Thunder for the King of Great Xia. And there were actually forty-two people present. Doesn't that mean that Great Xia is at least
There are also forty-two Xuan-level alchemists?"
"Including those who have no intention of contributing to the king of Daxia, or some idle clouds and wild cranes, the total number of Xuan-level alchemists can exceed a hundred, right? It is worthy of the beauty of Daxia Kingdom's 'Alchemy Fragrance Ten Thousand Miles'"
name."
As soon as he thought about this, Chen Shen felt that if Tianqibao Pavilion wanted to make a splash with its quadathlon, the burden on his shoulders as a Dan Hall bearer would become heavier...
While the young man in green shirt was sizing up the forty-two people, they were also sizing him up——
"Huh? Why did Dean Liao bring a young boy here?"
"You just came out of seclusion three days ago, so you don't know. This young man's name is Chen Shen, and he is the direct grandson of Chen Zangfeng. Despite his young age, he is already a genuine Xuanjing alchemist!"
"Oh? Hear what you say, he is still a rare young genius? Interesting and interesting..."
"Well! For a Xuanjing alchemist who is not yet eighteen years old, this achievement is unmatched by anyone even if we go back five hundred years."
…
Listening to the discussion of the alchemy masters, Shao Wenkai showed disdain and curled his lips and said: "Huh, this ability to solve puzzles does not matter whether it is a genius or not. In addition to the mysterious realm soul ability, the solver also has
You must have extensive knowledge and experience.”
"At Chen Shen's age, even though his alchemy skills are good, his experience and knowledge are definitely not flattering. I just ask him not to hold me back later!"
The King of Daxia was here, and Chen Shen's grandfather Chen Zangfeng also entered the palace with him, so Shao Wenkai's remarks were not considered out of bounds with etiquette.
However, the implication behind his words is still sharp. He bluntly said that Chen Shen has little experience and no knowledge and skills. Looking for him will only cause chaos for everyone...
Chen Shen was too lazy to argue with this old guy at the moment and just ignored him.
After meeting the King of Daxia, the young man stood back beside Liao Cangmang, his eyes looking straight at the incense burner in the middle of the circle.
This incense burner is gray in color and must be cast from extremely solid dragon bone stone.
On the top of the stove, there were eight openings the size of copper coins. At this time, lavender energy haloes were frequently coming out of the top. It seemed that there was a spirit creature suffering from "hyperactivity disorder" trapped there, struggling to get out of the stove.
body bondage...
"The thing in this furnace is the Beidou Wind, Fire and Thunder, right?" the young man asked quietly.
Liao Cangmang nodded slightly: "That's right. After His Majesty agrees, we will have to find out the souls one after another. It is your first time to spy on the spirit of mutated elements. Don't rush forward. It is best to proceed step by step and proceed steadily."
Chen Shen respectfully agreed.
He knew that Dean Liao was worried that he would be greedy for credit and rush forward.
If this is true, not to mention the loss of soul energy is too great, and it is even possible that the mutated element will eat away at the soul, causing serious damage to the soul, which may not recover for more than ten years, or in the worst case, the soul will be completely scattered and die...
At this time, Xia Yuanlong, who was in the main position, stood up slowly, gave a fist-cup salute to His Highness and everyone, and said: "Dear dear friends, fellow righteous men, you have traveled thousands of miles to come to help me. I am very happy. No matter what happens in the end.
Whether it succeeds or not, I will give you millions of gold as a gift to express my gratitude."
The majestic king of a country and the powerful Seven-Star Xuan King, when facing many Xuanjing alchemists, he was as humble as a friend in his words.
It can be seen that the status of the four major mysterious professions in Xuanling Continent is indeed extraordinary.
"Uh... only one million gold? The emperor is too stingy..." Chen Shen couldn't help but secretly complained after hearing this.
A month ago, one million gold coins would have been a huge sum of money to this young man, enough to keep him happy for a long time.
But now, with millions of gold, it is quite weak to even touch this young man's heartstrings slightly...
Except for Chen Shen, everyone present was a long-established Xuan-level Xuan Alchemy Master. Any one of them was worth well over ten million, and no one would look like a fool just for these one million gold.
Just when Chen Shen was faltering, he suddenly felt a malicious gaze on him...
Moreover, the aura hidden in this gaze was extremely unfamiliar, and it could never be that of Shao Wenkai.
Chen Shen suddenly became excited, and a malicious sentence flashed through his heart: "Why are there always unscrupulous people who want to harm me?"
