Xuanjian Cliff is located on the top of a tall and dangerous mountain. It is cold all year round, with ice and snow blocking the mountain, and strong winds blowing. Zhan Chen estimated that the wind force was at least a dozen levels.
Moreover, the wind seemed strange. Originally, the immortal body of a cultivator would not be afraid of the ordinary cold wind, but somehow, being blown by this sinister wind made people feel like they were trembling all over.
Zhan Chen's heart sank to the bottom when he thought that Zhuang Xiaodie would stay on this mountain for fifty years. He, a big man with rough skin and thick flesh, found this kind of cold wind unbearable, not to mention that Zhuang Xiaodie was a thin-skinned man.
Where is the tender woman?
Hanging Sword Cliff is a high cliff standing on the top of a dangerous mountain. It is hundreds of meters high. The peak is as sharp as a spear. From a distance, it looks like a sharp sword. That’s why the Hanging Sword Cliff got its name. The person who was punished
Disciples must stay on the cliff and are not allowed to come down at will.
The elders in charge of the criminal law would quietly come to the Xuanjian Cliff every now and then to spy on the punished disciples. If the punished disciple did not stay at the top of the Xuanjian Cliff and went down the mountain at will, he would incur a more severe punishment.
At this time, Zhuang Xiaodie was the only one receiving punishment on the cliff, and there was no other person to accompany her.
When the four of them reached the top of the cliff, they saw Zhuang Xiaodie standing proudly on the top of the cliff, facing the strong wind and looking into the distance, standing alone and even more lonely. Seeing this scene, Zhan Chen and others felt uncomfortable.
Zhuang Xiaodie naturally felt the arrival of several people. She turned around, forced a smile on her face, and said with pretending joy: Senior Sister Li, why are you coming to see me?
Li Qiong glared at her and said reproachfully: Look, you didn't listen to me. You will suffer a big loss this time.
Zhuang Xiaodie couldn't help but lower her head after hearing her words.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Li Junchen deliberately smiled and said: Senior Sister Li, look at you, you are talking about unhappy things again. Aren't we here to see Senior Sister Zhuang today? By the way, Senior Sister Zhuang, where do you live and you don't take us with you?
Go and have a look
Okay, Zhuang Xiaodie replied with a smile.
Then she led the four of them down the cliff to a point slightly lower, pointed to a cave and said: Live here, come in with me. After that, she walked into the cave.
Zhan Chen and others also followed in and found that there was only more than fifty square meters in it. Not only was there nothing, but it was also very cold, as if the stone walls here were ventilated.
Li Junchen called: Senior Sister Zhuang, the conditions for you to live here are too bad, right?
Zhuang Xiaodie smiled and said: Otherwise, you think I am being punished. Where are the good conditions? Just make do with it. In fifty years, I will only be in seclusion once.
When Zhan Chen heard what she said, he felt even more heartbroken for some reason. He thought to himself: Zhuang Xiaodie is my savior, and what she did was a just thing. How could she be treated like this? This world is so unfair. I
We must find a way to make her feel better
After a few words of greeting, Li Qiong and others left some cultivation elixirs and warm things for Zhuang Xiaodie and left. They could only do this for her.
After returning from Xuanjian Cliff, Zhan Chen rested at home for two days before going to Yanxia Peak to perform his duties, and Yanxia Peak is the dojo of Elder Yan Yan. This elder can be said to be a highly respected person in the sect, and not only possesses Immortal Yuan
High-level powerful cultivation is still a sect
He is the only alchemy master who can refine immortal-level elixirs. Even Zhuang Weiye usually gives him three points. In addition, Elder Yan is withdrawn and unsmiling. Therefore, his Yanxia Peak is also a forbidden place in the sect, and ordinary disciples are not allowed to do so.
Dare to approach easily.
After Zhan Chen learned about the weirdness of Elder Yan Yan from outsiders before, he was very cautious. He was still doing his homework along the way, thinking about how to deal with the various difficulties caused by the great elder later.
Arriving at the foot of Yanxia Peak, Zhan Chen looked up and saw that compared to other elders' caves, Yanxia Peak was short, only a few thousand meters high. There was a faint purple smoke lingering on the top of the mountain, and he saw it from a long distance away.
You can feel the breath of elixir from it, which only those who have studied elixir for a long time will realize.
Zhan Chen felt a trace of excitement surge in his blood and hurriedly walked towards the top of the mountain. He was not allowed to fly or ride a spiritual beast to enter the elder's dojo. This was a kind of etiquette and respect.
When you reach the top of the mountain, what appears in front of you is a courtyard with a simple shape and a mysterious layout. Every building here is made of bluestone. There are a total of 7749 buildings, but they are evenly divided into hexagons.
It's like some kind of formation.
Zhan Chen could clearly feel that there seemed to be some special connection between the buildings here, as if there was an invisible tie connecting them. This feeling also appeared when he first arrived at Tianjian Mountain.
It's just that the scope of Tianjian Mountain is too large, and he can't get a glimpse of the entire sect's layout, so the feeling is not strong enough. But today on the Yanxia Peak, he can more clearly feel the wonderful layout of the Xianzong's buildings.
Abandoning the flashy appearance, pursuing the most essential things of the building, as if it can be integrated with nature.
There is no wall to protect the courtyard, so Zhan Chen can enter at will. However, what bothers him is that he does not know where Yan Yan is now. At this moment, a man wearing the clothes of an outer disciple and possessing martial arts walks towards him.
A person who cultivates the Holy Dzogchen Perfection still holds a broom in his hand.
Zhan Chen seemed to have met his savior. He hurriedly stepped forward to salute and asked: Where is Elder Yan Yan now?
The man turned around and gestured to the tall tower in the center with his hand and said: It must be in Lingyan Pavilion, and it is on the top floor. If he did not retreat or go on a trip, he would stay there most of the year.
There.
Zhan Chen was stunned and said: You seem to know Elder Yan very well.
It's not that he understands, but that Elder Yan is an alchemy fanatic and studies the art of alchemy all day long, and the best place for alchemy here is the top floor of Lingyan Pavilion.
So that's it, thank you very much.
Senior brother, please don't be so polite. I'm just a handyman now. The disciple shook his head and sighed.
A trace of pity flashed in Zhan Chen's eyes, and somehow the lonely and stubborn figure carrying the barbell appeared in front of him again, and he thought silently: Nie Zhenkun, what on earth are you doing now?
However, he quickly returned to reality from his memories and walked towards Lingyan Pavilion. Lingyan Pavilion is located in the center of the entire courtyard. It is majestic and has nine floors, pointing straight into the sky, and the surrounding buildings are like stars.
The moon generally surrounds it.
As soon as he stepped into Lingyan Pavilion, Zhan Chen felt something strange, as if there was an indescribable aura gathering towards this high tower. It was not the same aura, but it had a unique and wonderful feeling.
Zhan Chen can't understand what this kind of breath is and what its usefulness is, but it must be of some benefit to alchemy. This is unmistakable. The eight floors in front of Lingyan Pavilion are mostly empty rooms with few people living in them. Zhan Chen
Chen just snooped around and ignored them, and went directly to the ninth floor.
As soon as I arrived on the ninth floor, I was greeted by a familiar strong scent of medicine, and it was also accompanied by a heavy scolding, which sounded like thunder and made people shudder: What did you do, you are lazy again?
I said that the transportation of immortal energy cannot be stopped.
Zhan Chen paused and saw an old man with half-white hair and beard pointing at an inner disciple and scolding him.
Elder Yan, please let me rest for a while. It has been five hours in a row and my immortal energy is almost exhausted. The disciple begged.
The old man was embarrassed and said: It's only been five hours. Sometimes I have to sit for several months to make elixirs. How can you refine a good elixir for me if you don't know how to endure hardship?
He raised his big foot and kicked the inner disciple hard, and then cursed: "Sit back and continue. It's just one step away. Don't let me lose the chain. I have to take care of other alchemy furnaces."
The shocking scene he saw as soon as he came up made Zhan Chen secretly speechless. It seemed that Elder Yan really lived up to his reputation.
At this time, Yan Yan turned around and saw Zhan Chen, pointed at him and said: You, come here quickly
Zhan Chen was slightly startled, but still stepped forward.
Yan Yan pointed to a seat next to him and said: Sit here
Zhan Chen sat down obediently.
Did you see the alchemy furnace in front?
Zhan Chen raised his head and took a look, only to see a huge alchemy furnace nearly as tall as a person right in front of him, and like him, there were a total of sixteen people sitting around the alchemy furnace, feeding immortal essence into the alchemy furnace.
He didn't understand what kind of elixir they were refining and why such a large alchemy furnace was used to refine it. It also required the cooperation of more than a dozen people to complete it.
But it didn't matter now. He could only obediently raise his hand to transfer the immortal essence into the alchemy furnace, keeping the fire in the furnace burning vigorously.
Yan Yan then left this alchemy furnace and turned to take care of other alchemy furnaces. In this hall, there were three more alchemy furnaces the same size as the one in front of Zhan Chen, with a total of more than seventy people.
Around these alchemy furnaces, the immortal essence was transported desperately.
In addition, there was actually a senior brother dressed in the attire of an elite disciple, sitting alone in a hall, holding an alchemy furnace the size of a football, performing various alchemy techniques, which attracted special attention.
At this time, Yan Yan came to him and said to him: Zhou Xiaobin, you can get up and let me do it.
Yes, Elder Yan's elite disciple named Zhou Xiaobin replied respectfully, stood up and sat aside.
Yan Yan immediately took over the alchemy furnace and used various seal techniques to continue refining the elixir.
Witnessing the busy alchemy scene in the hall, Zhan Chen felt deeply in his heart. He turned around and asked another senior brother beside him who was controlling the fire with him: "This dear brother, I just came here and I don't understand anything. I want to ask you
Ask some questions.
The young man smiled and asked: What is your name?
My name is Zhan Chen.
The name Zhan Chen seems familiar. I seem to have heard it somewhere. My name is Wang Xia. If you want anything, just ask.
What I want to ask is what kind of elixir is being refined in this elixir furnace?
This one is refining Hong Yuan Dan in batches.
Hong Yuan Dan, isn't that a ninth-grade primary elixir? It can also be refined in batches. Zhan Chen was very curious.
Of course you can. The medicinal materials here are enough to refine a hundred pieces.
