In the next few days, there was no movement in Jinting Mountain, and nothing strange was reported at all.
Therefore, Xiao Shan increasingly felt that the previous scene was a conspiracy directed and performed by Jin Ting Sect in order to deceive Tai Xuan Sect's sympathy and make them jump into a trap specially set by others.
Of course, Xiao Zhen felt a little uneasy deep in his heart. He didn't think that the Jinting Sect would settle down and give up. However, with their current situation, they could only order the disciples to stay in the mountains and perform their duties and not go out.
For good.
During this period, Xiao Shan taught Xiao Zhen his newly learned alchemy techniques without reservation, and he unexpectedly achieved a breakthrough to the rank of a second-level mid-level alchemist.
This happy event was something he never expected.
Xiao Zhen then experimented several times and came up with some results. For example, in addition to being able to refine the second-level middle-grade Qingya Dan, the rate of pill formation when refining the second-order low-grade Xiaohuan Dan has stabilized at 50%.
Or so, and if you are lucky, you can also get a few of medium quality.
As long as he becomes more familiar with the entire process of refining the Xiao Huan Dan in the next period of time, he can further improve it and produce more medium-quality Xiao Huan Dan in the same furnace.
Another surprise is that it took three or four years for Chen Ru, an alchemy apprentice, to finally step into the threshold of a first-level alchemist. From now on, she can help process some of the elixirs needed for alchemy, which can help Xiaoshan reduce some of his burden.
In other words, the situation of Taixuan Sect has been slowly improving in a good direction. As long as they are given another period of time, they will definitely be able to get out of this predicament.
It has only been less than half a month since Xiao Zhen handed the alchemy book to Xiao Shan, and such great progress has been made.
Seeing such results, Xiao Zhen said that his decision at that time was correct.
It also made him understand more and more that the development of a sect cannot only rely on individuals, but must gather the full strength of everyone.
On this day, while Xiao Zhen was busy helping Ru Lan and Ru Hu check the growth of the elixir seedlings, a scream suddenly sounded outside the mountain gate, and then the entire Taixuan Mountain suddenly shook violently several times.
Next, Xiao Li held a transmission note and issued a warning of an attack on the mountain gate.
Someone is attacking the mountain gate formation!
This sudden change frightened everyone!
Throughout the hundreds of years since Taixuan Sect was established, similar incidents had occurred, only two or three times.
At that time, there was an old man named Taixuan who was in charge of the mountain gate, and he was able to repel the people without spending much effort.
The most serious one was a beast tide decades ago. At that time, looking forward from the top of Taixuan Mountain, monster beasts could be seen everywhere, almost endless.
What's even more frightening is that there is a fourth-level beast king among the monster beasts. Its strength is equal to that of a human's golden elixir master, and it can barely borrow the power of heaven and earth.
At that time, Old Man Taixuan had just been promoted to the seventh level of foundation building, and he was in high spirits.
In the end, he relied on the wood fire return wind formation he set up and gathered the power of the entire sect to kill the fourth-level beast king. For this reason, the disciples of the sect lost one-third, and even the disciples he taught
Several disciples also died in this battle.
Otherwise, there will definitely be more than two foundation-building elders of Taixuan Sect.
It was also from that time on that Old Man Taixuan became more and more eager for quick success and believed that he had to break through to the golden elixir stage.
Today, in the entire sect, Xiao Shan is the only one who has experienced it. At that time, he was only a disciple in the early stage of Qi refining, and could only watch silently from a distance, without having the opportunity to participate in the battle.
After so many years, what I didn't expect was that Taixuanmen would once again face such a difficult situation.
Compared with before, Taixuan Sect at this time is like a five-year-old child, and its strength has dropped significantly.
According to the vibration of the formation just now, to be able to cause such a big movement, it must be someone with combat power above the foundation-building stage who did it himself.
This kind of strength can be regarded as an unreachable mountain for today's Taixuan Mountain. If you are not careful, you will be defeated and killed.
And these people can only have a chance of survival by relying on the big formation to fight to the death.
"Let's go, defend the formation against the enemy." Xiao Zhen waved his arms and called the two Ruhu people next to him over.
The sect is not prosperous, so they can only cobble together more people to create more strength.
Next, Xiao Zhen himself rushed to the foot of the mountain without stopping.
Currently, the only person guarding the formation is Xiao Li, who is at the third level of Qi Refining. He must rush over as soon as possible.
It is no exaggeration to say that every time the Shanmen Formation is attacked, it is a time of life and death for the sect.
Once the formation is broken, the subsequent damage will not be something Taixuan Mountain can withstand.
Moreover, Xiao Zhen wanted to see who would come to the door without even saying hello, and just bully him inexplicably?
Xiao Zhen came here first. As soon as he entered the formation control space, he saw Xiao Li struggling to move the formation flag in front of him.
At this time, he was already sweating profusely, and his face was as white as a piece of white paper.
Without saying a word, Xiao Zhen immediately took over what he was doing.
Then, he took over the formation center.
"Go and call them over. Leave this place to me first." Xiao Zhen ordered.
"Yes." Xiao Li wiped the sweat off his face with his hand, breathed a long sigh of relief, and retreated.
His cultivation level is so low that it feels like an ant is controlling the power of an elephant.
Therefore, in these short few moments, he felt as if he had been emptied of time and was completely powerless.
After Xiao Li left for a while, Xiao Zhen felt that his consciousness was accepted by the entire formation.
At this moment, he is the formation, and the formation has become his eyes and ears.
Through the formation, he saw the scene outside the mountain gate.
A group of four or five people gathered outside, and the leader was indeed in the foundation building stage.
"Fang Zhiyuan?"
Xiao Zhen was stunned when he saw the person coming.
The headmaster of Jintingmen actually came to attack the mountain?
Perhaps feeling Xiao Zhen's prying eyes, Fang Zhiyuan headed towards the mountain gate and shouted: "I am here to capture the traitor this time. My disciples saw the traitor Wang Mingfu coming towards Taixuan Gate and suspected that you were hiding something secretly.
If you find a criminal, hand him over quickly. Otherwise, I will do it myself."
In this moment, everyone on the mountain rushed over.
Xiao Zhen looked around and saw that including himself, there were only nineteen people, seven disciples and twelve servants.
Even Zhang Lexin, who was in seclusion, quickly broke out of the seclusion. At this time, his aura was unstable, as if he had just succeeded in breaking through and had not yet completely restrained his aura.
"Well done, you've reached the fourth level of Qi Refining." Looking at Le Xin who looked slightly tired, Xiao Zhen immediately praised him.
"When the sect is in trouble, it is Le Xin's duty to do so." Even though Zhang Lexin looks young, his expression is extremely firm when he speaks.
