Chen Mobai: "Isn't the Kingdom of Thunder the territory of Zhou Wangshen?"
Yuan Chiye: "He was taken away by Ancestor Zhou. The leader can't go to the sacred tree to ask Ancestor Zhou for someone."
Hearing this, Chen Mobai was slightly speechless.
In this case, it is really a good thing that Meng Hong abdicates early. With Zhou Wangshen's background and talent, if he continues to practice the immortal Taoism, there is really no one in the sect who can compete with him for the position of leader.
Now, with Chu Zuoshu as a buffer, maybe Chen Mobai will have a chance in a few decades.
E Yun: "When will we leave?"
Yuan Chiye: "I originally thought it would be after the sect competition, but last night the leader asked the Witchcraft Department to send relevant documents. He probably wanted me to leave as soon as possible."
Hearing this, E Yun and Chen Mobai frowned. They looked at each other and noticed the disharmony.
E Yun: "Junior brother Yuan, this matter may be a bit fishy, you should be careful."
Chen Mobai: "The leader is not such an impatient person."
After hearing this, Yuan Chiye nodded slightly. He originally felt something was wrong, but now after listening to the words of the two people, his thoughts were confirmed.
E Yun: "The guards of each country change every ten years. If I remember correctly, Senior Brother Luo should be handed over to the sect this year."
The four kingdoms under the command of Shenmu Sect will send a foundation-building monk to guard the territory every ten years. This is also one of the tasks that few people pay attention to within the sect. Although there are many contribution points and spiritual stones, there is no Giant Wood Ridge.
This spiritually charged place can be used for spiritual practice.
But precisely because few people are willing to go, but it’s impossible without sending someone, Shenmu Sect has a rule.
If every foundation-building monk wants to hold key positions in the Three Halls and Twelve Departments within the sect, he must have the experience of guarding the Four Kingdoms.
After Shan Hongyi returned to the clan, E Yun had already taken over the position of guard of the Yun Kingdom.
The Yun Kingdom is bordering Yunmengze again. He has been presiding over the opening up of the first spiritual realm in the Eastern Wasteland for a long time. As long as he does not encounter a beast tide and suffers heavy losses, he can accumulate strength and power and even spiritual stones for ten years like this.
Growth.
When the duty of guarding is over and he returns to his clan, E Yun can use the savings of the past ten years to try to break through to the middle stage of foundation building.
If it can be done, we can compete for the position of leader.
If it fails, the most he will be in the future is one of the twelve ministers, or the deputy master of the three main halls.
Before Meng Hong abdicated, he at least arranged a path for his disciples to ascend.
The Lei Kingdom also borders Yunmengze and was assigned to Zhou Wangshen. The Lingshi mine was discovered last year, and Luo Shupian's guarding period had not yet expired. Zhou Wangshen could not wait to negotiate with the local immortal cultivating family to show his
Sense of presence.
"Senior Brother Luo must know the inside story about the shortage of spiritual stones. He didn't tell the sect and he didn't come back. Either someone from the top was suppressing him or he had a problem with the Lei Kingdom."
Yuan Chiye was not completely unprepared. After receiving the order from the leader, he had already started investigating the relevant people and events.
"You mean...rebellion."
E Yun said those two words directly, and Chen Mobai remained silent.
"It is also possible that it is controlled by hostile forces. After all, Senior Brother Luo is only in the early stages of foundation building."
Yuan Chiye couldn't make a judgment like this, he was more tactful.
But no matter what, there must be something wrong with Luo Shupian, the guard of the Shenmu Sect’s Lei Kingdom, because of the shortage of spiritual stones.
"Senior Brother Luo comes from a family of immortal cultivators in the Yun Kingdom, and he happens to be under my command. After the sect competition, I also went to the Luo family to explore the reality." E Yun said, but then he remembered something and looked away again.
Chen Mobai, "The Luo family has relied on Senior Brother Luo to send many people into the sect over the years. I remember that there were two people in the same batch as Junior Brother Chen, and they were quite talented."
When Shenmu Zong Yunguo transferred spirits, although E Yun did not show up, Yuan Chiye was in charge, but he had been observing in secret, and he still had an impression of a few people with outstanding spiritual roots.
It is precisely because of this that when Chen Mobai was robbed by Nanshan bandits, he was able to come to the rescue in time.
"Both the Luo family brothers and sisters have reached the ninth level of qi training last year. Luo Yixiu has profound spiritual power and proficient spells. If he hadn't encountered the true legend, he would probably have entered the twenty-fourth level. Luo Yixuan is a little behind."
Yuan Chiye had already inquired about it clearly. When E Yun asked, Chen Mobai had already introduced everything in detail before Chen Mobai opened his mouth.
"After the sect competition, you take my warrant and invite them to come to my courtyard for tea."
E Yun nodded and gave instructions to Yuan Chiye.
Chen Mobai's face moved slightly after hearing this, but he didn't say anything more.
"By the way, Senior Brother E got a demonic beast inner elixir in Yunmengze last year. Does it mean that the sect will start refining the demonic beast foundation-building elixir again?"
Chen Mobai asked about another thing. Last year, the Shenmu Sect made huge gains in Yunmengze, especially when Eyun and Honghe teamed up with the sect's foundation-building monks to hunt down a second-level peak Pig Po Dragon.
"Yes, the boss has ordered Minister Zeng to put aside the rest of the alchemy tasks and focus on refining the Foundation Establishment Pill first."
"It seems that the leader wants to pave the way for your junior brother Mu Yuan before abdicating."
Yuan Chiye said jokingly.
After Chen Mobai established the foundation, Mu Yuan has occupied the position of the number one true legend for two consecutive years. If there are no accidents this year, he will probably still be the one.
No matter how many pills are produced after the Demonic Beast Foundation Establishment Pill is made, Mu Yuan will definitely have one.
In response, E Yun just smiled and did not express any opinion.
The three of them talked for a while about how the situation would change after Meng Hong abdicated. It wasn't until the sky turned dark and Liu Wenbai returned from attending the sect competition that E Yun and Yuan Chiye said goodbye and left.
"Master, senior brother won easily today?"
Zhuo Ming happily reported the results for Liu Wenbai first. The two senior brothers and sisters went out early this morning. Although she did not sign up, she really liked watching others fight.
"That's right, remember to remind me to check it out before you pass it on."
When he first established the foundation, Chen Mobai was still interested in watching the sect competition, but now, the fighting skills of the qi training disciples were completely unable to attract him.
If it weren't for the fact that the real inheritance was so important, and if his disciples and a few friends were participating, Chen Mobai might not even have watched the last few rounds of competitions between the real inheritance.
"Master, do you want to go out so late?"
Zhuo Ming was just about to make some spiritual meals and heat a pot of wine when he saw Chen Mobai walking towards the door.
"I have an old friend I want to meet."
Before Chen Mobai went out, he also sent out a messenger talisman. Liu Wenbai and Zhuo Ming did not dare to ask him who he was going to see, and watched him leave.
About half an hour later.
On a hillside outside Shenmu City, Chen Mobai stood here, blowing the breeze and enjoying himself.
He saw a stern young man in black flying from a distance, and soon he was at the foot of the hillside. After seeing Chen Mobai, he jumped up and landed directly next to him.
"Uncle Chen, why are you calling me out so late?"
Yu Lian asked with a strange look on his face.
That is to say, this is within the Shenmu Sect. If it were anywhere outside Jumu Ridge, he would not come here alone.
"With your talent and cultivation, becoming a true successor should be a piece of cake."
Chen Mobai asked a question, but Yu Lian didn't understand what he meant. The two of them had a brief conversation last time.
"The purpose of becoming a true successor is to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill, and it will take another four years for the next batch of Chalcedony Golden Zhi to mature. Becoming a true successor before then will only expose your own spells and magic weapons, and I don't want to." p>
Yu Lian gave a reason that Chen Mobai agreed with.
Indeed, even if he becomes a true successor, the sect's spiritual stone salary will be larger every year, and he can also get good spiritual practice.
But for Yu Lian, who has already become a disciple of Shan Hongyi, practiced Qi in the third-level spiritual vein land, and had accumulated a lot of spiritual stones before joining the Shenmu Sect, these benefits of true inheritance are not very important.<
/p>
The only thing that can attract him to become a true successor is the Foundation Establishment Pill.
And in order to ensure that in the year when Chalcedony Golden Zhi matures, which is the most fiercely competitive sect competition, it will be a blockbuster and stand out, now it is indeed the best to be immovable.
"What if I said that the sect is already preparing to refine a furnace of foundation-building pills."
Chen Mobai said something that made Yulian's eyes widen.
"This is true."
Without Chen Mobai's reminder, Yu Lian had already thought of the Demonic Beast Foundation Building Pill. After all, the most amazing and talented chief of the Shenmu Sect in a hundred years used this to build his foundation.
Such a successful example has caused other true disciples who were originally doubtful about the Monster Foundation Establishment Pill to now confuse it with the orthodox Foundation Establishment Pill.
If there is a chance to obtain the Monster Foundation Building Pill, Yulian feels that there is no need to hide it anymore.
"It's a pity that this year's sect competition has already begun, and you don't seem to have signed up."
Chen Mobai shook his head again and sighed.
"After the true inheritance is confirmed, the disciples of the sect who have not signed up have the right to challenge the twenty-four true inheritances."
Yu Lian said coldly that although he was not interested in the true inheritance, he knew the rules of the sect clearly.
"But Zhenzhuan also has the right to refuse challenges."
Chen Mobai asked again. After all, if a sect competition encounters a strong enemy, even the true successor will be injured. In order to avoid being taken advantage of, the Shenmu Sect also gives the true successor the right not to accept challenges.
"I will challenge those true successors who win easily and are in good condition. If they don't want to be laughed at by the people of the sect, they will definitely accept it."
However, Yulian thought about it the moment he heard about the Monster Foundation Establishment Pill.
"Well, one furnace of the Monster Foundation Establishment Pill will only produce two or three pills. If you want to get it, you have to work hard."
After Chen Mobai said this, he turned around and left with a smile.
"Why did Uncle Chen tell me this?"
Yu Lian immediately asked. Although he and Chen Mobai were from the same hometown, they had no communication at all when they were in Xinya Hall. The only communication was about buying Chiyang firewood, and his attitude was very ordinary.<
/p>
For Yu Lian, who was born as a casual cultivator and had experienced many killings before joining the sect, Chen Mobai's inexplicable show of kindness made him a little uneasy.
"I am a person who still values local feelings. You are good, so I will tell you by the way."
"What orders does Uncle Chen have in the future? As long as I can fulfill them, I will definitely not refuse them?"
Facing the foundation-building monks, Yulian could only make this kind of promise first.
"Let's wait until you can build the foundation."
When he said this, Chen Mobai was already standing on the haze and flying away from the hillside.
Seeing this scene, Yulian clenched his fists.
To build the foundation, he must build the foundation.
Only by building the foundation can we avenge the sect’s destruction.
The sect competition soon reached the crucial battle of true inheritance.
On the ring, Luo Yixiu shot down a true successor from last year with an arrogant look on his face, raising his head and chest to show his "powerful" cultivation.
And in the teahouse next door, in the private room on the second floor.
Luo Yixuan, who was wearing white palace attire, had a virtuous temperament and a pale complexion, knelt down in front of the two sect foundation-building elders with a sad look on her face.
"In order to avoid affecting your mood in the sect competition, I didn't notify you brothers and sisters immediately. It just so happened that you were eliminated this round, so I told you first."
Opposite Luo Yixuan, Yuan Chiye was drinking tea while informing her about the accident at the Lingshi Mine in Lei Kingdom and the possible accident to Luo Shupian.
"Please ask the two master uncles to tell you clearly. My uncle will never betray the sect."
Luo Yixuan could only say this. The reason why the Luo family was able to establish a firm foothold in the Yun Kingdom was, in addition to the family's foundation-building ancestor, because of Luo Shupian in the Shenmu Sect.
In any case, once the charge of betrayal is proven, I am afraid that not only the Luo family children of Shenmu Sect, but also the entire Luo family in Yun Kingdom may be implicated.
After all, although these major factions in the Eastern Wasteland have been peaceful and stable for decades, every time they started, they were filled with bloody history books.
There aren’t many ways to make the Xiuxian family and small sects disappear.
"It is precisely because we believe in Senior Brother Luo that the sect sent people to find out the truth."
Yuan Chiye said this, then took out E Yun's handwriting and handed it to Luo Yixuan.
"After the sect competition, Senior Brother E invited you two brothers and sisters to drink tea and tell you everything you have seen and heard in Lei Country in the past few years. I informed you in advance to let you remember it well. When the time comes,
Don’t miss anything.”
After saying this, Yuan Chiye waved his hand, indicating that Luo Yixuan could go out.
Chen Mobai has been sitting aside drinking tea without saying a word.
Before Luo Yixuan left, she saw him opening his mouth, but hesitated to speak, but finally bowed his head and resigned under the silent pressure of the two foundation-building elders.
"Oh, Luo Yixiu has become the true successor."
At this time, Yuan Chiye opened the window and saw Luo Yixiu walking down the ring.
"His talent was among the top five among our batch. It is normal to have such results."
Chen Mobai said something that puzzled Yuan Chiye.
"Top five? Apart from you, he is the second person to become a true successor. How did you rank in the top five?"
Facing Yuan Chiye's doubts, Chen Mobai pointed at himself.
He ranked first, and Yuan Chiye had no objection.
"Yu Lian, Luo Yixuan, my apprentice, and then Luo Yixiu, he happens to be ranked fifth."
"I agree with Yulian. If Luo Yixuan said it, wouldn't he be eliminated earlier than him?"
Yuan Chiye is still puzzled.
"She has practiced a magic technique that hides her cultivation and spiritual consciousness, but she can't hide it from my eyes."
Chen Mobai spoke softly.
After hearing this, Yuan Chiye looked with surprise as he looked at Luo Yixuan, who had just walked out of the teahouse and greeted Luo Yixiu with a proud look on his face. With Chen Mobai's reminder, he observed carefully, and with his level of foundation building, he really saw that
