Chen Taizhong was already at the peak of Level 5 and could directly reach Level 6 - he himself had never encountered any bottleneck in his cultivation.
But this time in his practice, he really encountered a bottleneck. He practiced in seclusion for three days, but he still failed to reach level six.
If others hear the word "chichi", they will probably vomit blood - the fifth-level spirit immortal rushes to the sixth level, and he has not made it for three days. Even if it is "chichi", how can it make those who have been through it for several years feel embarrassed?
The reason for his slow speed is very simple. When he was rushing from level 4 to level 5, his speed was a little too fast, and he rushed directly to the peak of level 5. During this period, he lacked accumulation, increased immortal power, and lacked tempering.
"It's time to go out for some exercise," Chen Taizhong decided.
The activity he wanted to do was not to go to the market town, but to fight wild beasts. Mr. Chen was originally a cultivator and was not very interested in dealing with people. Now that he had enough supplies, he could not enter the market. Really
Not big.
In a sense, he is a person who can tolerate loneliness quite well.
What he didn't know was that a group of outsiders came to Hutou Town at this moment, led by two ninth-level immortals, and several eighth- and seventh-level immortals.
This group of people came just for Chen Taizhong. One of the ninth-level immortals was named Liang Zhigao and the other was named Zhu Jingyun. They were the family members of the four unlearned teenagers.
As soon as the Liang family heard that the future head of the family had been killed, they immediately refused to give up, especially since the dead young man was the most promising star of hope among the direct grandsons of the ancestors of the Liang family.
The youngest fourth-level Immortal of the Liang family, a rare genius, died just like that.
Therefore, the Liang family and the Zhu family were bound to dig out Chen Taizhong. I heard that someone had seen this man in Hutou Town two days ago, so they hurried over.
The Liang family has two ninth-level immortals, and the ancestor is in charge of the family. Liang Zhigao rushed over, while the Zhu family only had one ninth-level immortal, and he also rushed over - the young man named Zhu, who was good at wood magic.
, has amazing talents, such geniuses are extremely rare.
The group came to Hutou Town and directly found the real controller of the town - the Red Arrow Alliance.
There are three leaders in the Red Arrow Alliance. The eldest leader, Lei Xiaosheng, went out a while ago and has just come back. Hearing that the Liang family and the Zhu family came to visit, he immediately received them warmly, accompanied by deputy leaders Xu Jianhong and Luo Cheng.
Boss Lei is at the peak of the ninth level of Youxian. He is only half a step away from reaching Lingxian. He is the same as the ancestor of the Liang family. However, even so, he does not dare to underestimate these two families. The reason is very simple - he is a San
build.
For casual cultivators, if they can avoid offending their sect and family, then it is best not to offend them. This is a kind of order.
Even if the opposing family is not strong, if a casual cultivator dares to be rude, it means trampling on order.
Under such circumstances, if the person concerned can tolerate it, other powerful families cannot tolerate it either, and they will inevitably interfere - there is no rule without rules.
Liang Zhigao and Zhu Jingyun were also used to it. After being slightly polite, they took out Chen Taizhong's portrait and said, "Deputy Leader Xu, please identify the person who disrupted order in Hutou Town two days ago. Is this the person?"
"It's him," Xu Jianhong nodded indifferently. This matter was an unforgettable shame for him, but unfortunately, people kept asking about it recently.
He had even heard that that person was probably Chen Taizhong, who was being hunted by the Zheng family in the Northern Territory, but the shame in his heart could not be erased.
A dignified ninth-level wandering immortal was restrained and robbed by a fifth-level wandering immortal. Once this news spreads, not only will Chen Taizhong be remembered, but his name will also spread like wildfire.
Such a reputation is not what Xu Jianhong wants.
So just like answering other people, he recounted the story he had fabricated - he chased after and restrained the casual cultivator, thinking that the other party was ignorant, and only charged the entrance fee of two low-grade spiritual stones.
"The Red Arrow League is really easy to talk to," Zhu Jingyun snorted coldly after hearing this. He felt that there was something fishy about this matter. The Red Arrow League was a group of casual cultivators. To gain a foothold in Hutou Town, thunderous tactics were indispensable.
"You don't understand the hardships of casual cultivators," Xu Jianhong rolled his eyes at him and retorted expressionlessly.
"Hey, what's your expression?" Zhu Jingyun had the urge to go berserk. He pointed at the other person and said, "When will it be your turn to show your face to us, a casual cultivator?"
"As if you are not a casual cultivator," Xu Jianhong was also angry. He glared, "Does your Qingshi Zhu family... have any immortals?"
"Asshole, do you want to die?" Zhu Jingyun was so angry that he shouted at the table. Deputy leader Xu's words hit the Zhu family's weakness - the rule of the Fenghuang world is that a family can only be called a family if there are immortals in it.
The Zhu family used to have spiritual beings and it was a real family. Later, the spiritual beings fell and they could no longer be called a family.
However, in this world, there are many families in decline. As long as the inheritance continues, there is hope for a turnaround. Such examples of revival are not uncommon - as long as a genius appears, it is possible to turn things around.
Of course, this kind of pseudo-family that rests on its laurels cannot compete with the real family.
Xu Jianhong's words were indeed a bit harsh. No wonder Zhu Jingyun couldn't sit still.
"Don't grin at me," Xu Jianhong stood up and glared at him, "You made me angry. Believe it or not, your Zhu family will never get ahead?"
This is not a threat. Although he is a casual cultivator, he is also a ninth-level wandering immortal. He is only one step away from being promoted to a spiritual immortal.
Even if we don't talk about future development, just talk about the current situation, the strongest combat power of the Zhu family is only the ninth level wandering immortal - and there is only one, deputy leader Xu, who may overthrow the entire Zhu family.
"Jianhong, do you think I am the first boss in your eyes?" Lei Xiaosheng saw this and hurriedly scolded him. In his heart, he actually supported the second boss' statement, but these days, you can't slap someone in the face, and you can't expose someone's shortcomings by scolding them.
Then he smiled at Liang Zhigao again, "Jianhong is just a rough guy with very poor quality... Elder Liang, please continue."
"The spirit immortal of the Zhu family fell in the battle of sealing the world." Liang Zhigao couldn't understand what the other party said. He narrowed his eyes and spoke grimly, "That is the pride of the Fenghuang world. You surnamed Xu are here
Who are you making fun of?"
The Sealing War is a war involving the safety of the entire Fenghuang Realm, and those who have fallen are respected.
Xu Jianhong curled his lips and said to himself, "My ancestors were also rich, so what's the point of talking about our ancestors?"
"Jianhong regrets not getting the bounty of the Thousand Spirits," Lei Xiaosheng said with a smile to smooth things over.
Liang Zhigao didn't want to pursue the matter anymore. After all, he was afraid of Alliance Leader Lei, so he asked in a deep voice, "Is Chen Taizhong really already at the fifth level of the Immortal?"
Damn, what do you mean by "already" the fifth level of Youxian? Xu Jianhong wanted to run away again after hearing this. For a mere fifth level of Youxian, labor and management have already suffered a lot. He nodded lightly, "Yes, Lei Fang can testify."
"Can you tell me how you subdued him?" Liang Zhigao asked calmly.
"It's related to the secrets of magic weapons and exercises, so I can't accept my order," Xu Jianhong flatly refused, and then he sneered again, "You don't think he can escape from my hands, do you?"
It is not necessarily difficult for him to run away from you. Liang Zhigao knows very well that when Chen Taizhong was at the fourth level of Youxian, he killed the seventh-level Youxian of the Liang family.
The seventh-level immortal was not dead at the time, but he was forced to call the police with his essence and blood, and finally died. What was particularly shocking was that there were four third- and fourth-level immortals present at the time, and they all also died.
.
It was precisely because of this that the Liang family paid special attention to the man named Chen, and even arranged a luxurious lineup led by two ninth-level immortals. Now that he heard that the guy had actually advanced to the fifth level, he became more and more wary.
However, the Liang family secretly cultivates high-end combat power in order to wait for the ancestors of the Liang family to attack the spirit immortals and provide military support for the entire Liang family to advance to the next level. Such a secret cannot be known to anyone.
So he just snorted coldly, "According to Lei Fang, Chen Taizhong can give him a fight."
"This man's cultivation level is indeed slightly higher than that of an average fifth-level wandering immortal," Xu Jianhong rarely nodded and agreed solemnly.
He refused to tell his embarrassing story, so others would inevitably misjudge Chen Taizhong's strength.
The Liang family and the Zhu family already attach great importance to Chen Taizhong, especially Liang Zhigao. He will never underestimate this person, but in the end... Hutou Town sent a total of four search teams, and the leaders of the teams were only eight.
Level travel immortal.
Level 4 Chen Taizhong can kill level 7 Youxian, but level 5 Chen Taizhong may not be able to kill level 8 Youxian - everyone has enough understanding of this person and will not make those low-level mistakes of contempt.
In particular, the seventh-level immortals at that time were only surrounded by some third- and fourth-level immortals, but now the eighth-level immortals leading the team were surrounded by at least two seventh-level immortals.
Chen Taizhong didn't know this. He planned to take action, so he collected the spirit gathering array and walked out of the cave.
The location he is currently in is almost two hundred miles away from Qingshi City and seventy or eighty miles away from Hutou Town. This is an area with no control, and the level of the surrounding wild beasts is almost at the level of three to five.
Not long after he left, he beheaded a sword eagle. This desolate beast was at level five, but it could fly and was strong in attack and defense. It could also cause great damage to level six desolate beasts.
threaten.
But the sword eagle made a big mistake in targeting Chen Taizhong. The moment it rushed down to attack, Chen Taizhong pulled out his long knife and chopped off its head with one blow.
"It seems that I can kill the seventh-level Immortal with one hit," he nodded with satisfaction.
However, the next moment, he turned around, looked towards the woods not far away, and said coldly, "If you don't want to die, get out!"
He was only paying attention to the sword sculpture just now and didn't notice anything unusual nearby. After calming down, he noticed two auras appearing in the woods. One of them was also a fifth-level Immortal, and the other was a higher level.
As for how high this level was, Chen Taizhong was not very clear, but the guy's spiritual consciousness was not strong, that is, he was about level seven. He asked himself that if he attacked with all his strength, there would be no problem in leaving these two behind.
After hearing this, the two people in the forest left quickly - yes, one of them was a seventh-level wandering immortal.
