Feng Shui Han was slightly stunned, looked at Lu Chen, and said with a heavy expression: "You have only been in the sect for a long time, and you still don't know the current situation of the sect. "Feng Shui Han entered the Red Fire Gate when he was ten years old, and it has been more than ten years, and Lu Chen has entered the Red Fire Gate for less than a year, Feng Shui Han said that Lu Chen has not been in the sect for a long time, and it is really not an exaggeration.

Lu Chen's brows furrowed, he usually only focused on cultivation matters, but he didn't know too much about the sect. Although Feng Shui Han did not clearly say the current situation of the sect, listening to the meaning of Feng Shui Han's words, the current situation of the sect does not seem to be optimistic.

After pondering for a while, Feng Shui Han suddenly looked right, "Senior Brother Chen, the sect is about to be, you only have the Nine Heavens of the Qi Sea, you need to put more time and energy into your own cultivation, if I say more, it will not be beneficial to you." You just need to know that although Xia Yangtian is an inner disciple of Dantang, he is different from you and me, he has always been the son of the marquis of Xiayang County, and he is not a real sect person. ”

Feng Shui Han said this, affirming that Lu Chen is a member of the sect. He was so sure, not for nothing. First, Lu Chen was the only inner disciple of the mine hall who was promoted by Fan Sheng. Second, although the rescue of the Bone Devouring Forest this time was proposed by Younuo, Fei Ying of Dantang, Yan Qianzhi of Jingtang, and Feng Shui Han's own master Qiu Zhenchuan, these three elders all agreed.

Seeing that Feng Shui Han refused to say more, Lu Chen could only press his thoughts. But in his heart, he inexplicably remembered what Jiang Li had said to him when he was in the medicine hall - Jiang Li himself, as well as Bai Murong and Xia Hantian, were just chess pieces! At this moment, Lu Chen secretly felt that behind Jiang Li and the others, there were still people who he couldn't reach and was secretly manipulating Jiang Li and the others, stirring up the situation in the sect.

Jiang Li, Bai Murong and Xia Hantian are all sons of the county marquis, and Xia Yangtian and Younuo are also the sons of the county marquis. Xia Yangtian and Younuo are probably the same as Jiang Li and the others, and they are also chess pieces that have been put into the sect. As soon as he thought of this, Lu Chen's heart was slightly cold, what was the identity of the person in the secret, and why did he manipulate so many sons of the county marquis to gather in the sect.

On the way back to Dongfu Peak, Lu Chen kept thinking about this problem, but he had no clue. Finally returning to Dongfu Peak, he cleared his mind and continued to refine the Nine Treasure Quenching Bone Pill. Feng Shui Han was reluctant to explain everything to himself, just because he considered that his strength was too low now.

Then let's go crazy and cultivate!

In addition to going to the medicine hall every day, practicing with feng shui and cold, and devouring the sword rhyme. The rest of the time, Lu Chen was refining the Nine Treasure Quenching Bone Pill, although as time went by, his alchemy techniques became more and more skilled, but this time without the assistance of the Fire Spirit Mink, the speed of refining the Nine Treasure Quenching Bone Pill was much slower than the last time. Until the end of the sparring with Feng Shui Han, there was still a part of the 1,900 medicinal herbs that had not been refined.

And the tip of the Excalibur Fragment doesn't seem to have swallowed enough sword rhyme, but the sparring has ended, and Lu Chen is naturally not easy to say.

At this time, there were still seven days before the Zongmen Dabi, and Gu Linglong had not yet returned from the Bone Devouring Forest, although Lu Chen was worried, he was helpless. He stayed in the cave all day long, except for alchemy, which was cultivation. Finally, before the arrival of the sect, all the medicinal materials were refined.

The medicinal materials in the storage bracelet had been depleted, and in their place was a small pile of emerald green pills, with a total of more than five hundred and seventy Nine Treasure Quenching Bone Pills. Although it was twice as much as the Nine Treasure Quenching Bone Pill refined last time, the base number of medicinal materials for alchemy this time was also nearly five times more than that of the previous time. In other words, last time it was 60% of the Chengdan rate, and this time it was only 30% of the Chengdan rate. Moreover, the vast majority of the more than five hundred and seventy Nine Treasure Quenching Bone Pills were low-grade pills, and the quality was completely incomparable to the previous one.

In the early morning of this day, Lu Chen was cultivating, and the identity stone tablet tied to his waist suddenly vibrate, which was a message of feng shui cold. Calculate the time, today is exactly the time when the sect competition begins. checked Feng Shui Han's message, and sure enough, Feng Shui Han told him that the sect competition had begun, and he wanted to go to Dantang as soon as possible. After Lu Chen immediately cleaned up, he left the cave mansion and hurried to Dantang.

In the past, every session of the sect was held in the Dan Hall of the four halls, and this year was no exception. And during the Great Competition of the Sect, even the miscellaneous disciples were allowed to enter and leave the Dan Hall freely. When Lu Chen came to Dantang, Dantang was already overcrowded and lively. However, there was no battle between disciples in the ring, and the big competition between the sects had not really started, at least the competition between disciples had not yet begun.

He looked at it, and although the disciples in the Dan Hall were bustling at the moment, they were divided into four obvious groups. Three of them have a relatively large number of people and the strongest momentum. There are Bai Murong, Wei Wenyan and Xia Hantian in one piece, and the relationship between these people and Lu Chen is not harmonious. Of course, in this group of people, in addition to Xia Hantian and others, there is also a person Lu Chen is familiar with, a woman with bright eyes like fire, it is Jiang Feiyun, who has been promoted from a miscellaneous disciple of the Mine Hall to a disciple of the outer sect of the Dan Hall.

The other piece is headed by Feng Shui Han. In the third group of people, Lu Chen saw Qin Qi, Hu Meidie and others. These three groups of people are obviously the inner and outer disciples of the three halls of Dan, Medicine, and Sutra, as well as many miscellaneous disciples.

In the end, there was a group of people, not to mention the least number of people, there was not a single inner and outer disciple, compared to the other three groups of people, the momentum was also weak to the trough, Ning Yu, Wu Tao and Qiu Feng were in this group of people.

Although the battle had not yet begun, many of the disciples of the four halls had already arrived. Of course, not all of them will come, such as Jiang Ye of the Medicine Pavilion in the West City of Red Fire City, and some other sect disciples who must stick to their duties during the sect competition. Feng Shui Han saw that there was no Lu Chen among the disciples of the mine hall, so he summoned Lu Chen.

At this moment, except for the elders of each hall who have not yet arrived, only a few people in the four halls have not yet arrived, such as Younuo of the Dan Hall and Ling Qing'er of the Jing Hall. When Yi Luchen walked from the statue of the ancestor of the Red Fire Gate to Dantang Square, he immediately attracted the attention of many people.

"Who does this guy think he is, and he came so late!"

"You don't even know him, he is Chen Lu who joined the mine hall as a new initiation disciple this year, and now he is the only inner disciple of the mine hall. ”

"You don't need to participate in the evaluation of the inner disciple, you were directly promoted to an inner disciple by Elder Fan using the elder token, it turned out to be him!"

“......”

Everyone talked endlessly, and couldn't help but look at Lu Chen more, their eyes full of envy.

Seeing this, Lu Chen laughed in his heart, he didn't come late on purpose, he wanted to attract people's attention with this, but he just indulged in cultivation and forgot about the big competition of the sect. Without thinking too much, Lu Chen walked straight to the front of the crowd with the weakest momentum. He is the only inner disciple of the mine hall, and he should be like this at this moment. However, the arrival of Lu Chen did not change the overall momentum of the mine.

"Senior Brother Chen. Just as Lu Chen came to the people in the mine, several shouts suddenly came from behind him. When he looked back, he saw Ning Yu, Wu Tao, and Qiu Feng squeezing out of the many miscellaneous disciples of the mine hall and rushing towards him. Immediately, he saw a few acquaintances among the people in the mine, who were Fan Shangzhi, Feng Jian, Liu Han and others.

Seeing Lu Chen's gaze sweeping, Fan Shangzhi and the others looked frightened and dodged towards the crowd. Unlike the other Mine Hall disciples, they didn't know anything about what was happening in the other three halls. On the contrary, they liked to inquire about the affairs of the other three halls, and after Lu Chen was promoted to the inner disciple by solving the death of the medicinal materials in the medicine hall, Fan Shangzhi and the others also had this luxury, and in addition to mining spirit stones, the most they did was to work hard to find out the news of the other three halls.

It's just that after a few months, Fan Shangzhi and the others didn't have any good gains, but they also heard that Lu Chen was in the cultivation ground of the medicine hall, scaring away Guo Song of the Nine Heavens of the Qi Sea and Ji Hong of the Ten Heavens of the Qi Sea with one finger. When Fan Shangzhi and the others saw Lu Chen, they were like mice seeing cats, so naturally they couldn't hide from Lu Chen.

Soon, Ning Yu and the three of them stepped forward. For some reason, although Lu Chen never appeared, Ning Yu and the three of them did not summon Lu Chen, and in the end, Lu Chen rushed over after receiving a summons from Feng Shui Han. Lu Chen glanced at them, and the realm of the three of them who hadn't seen them for a few months had actually broken through one layer.

The realm breakthrough was a big event, although it was a little late, but Lu Chen still solemnly congratulated the three of them. Ning Yu and the three of them had joy in their eyes, and they all explained to Lu Chen that the three of them were able to break through thanks to Jiang Feiyun. Lu Chen nodded slightly, Ning Yu and the three of them pressed the treasure on Jiang Feiyun, and now they finally had a harvest.

At this moment, Lu Chen's identity stone card shook again, and after some investigation, it was still from Feng Shui Han's message. Seeing this, Ning Yu and the three of them all took a step back and stood behind Lu Chen.

"I have good news and bad news, which one are you going to hear?"

"Let's start with the good news. Lu Chen responded.

"The good news is that in this sect competition, the elders jointly decided that disciples who are already in the True Gang Realm are not allowed to participate in the sect competition. In addition, disciples over the age of 20 are not allowed to participate in the sect competition. As soon as these two restrictions came out, Xia Yangtian, Younuo, Senior Sister Ling, and I didn't have to participate in the sect competition. In my opinion, the first place in this sect competition is already in your pocket. Feng Shui Han said.

"Senior Brother Feng, you think too highly of me. Lu Chen shook his head and smiled, "Tell me the bad news." ”

"Senior Sister Ling's failure to break through the realm also caused damage to the meridians. Feng Shui Han looked solemn.

Lu Chen frowned, no wonder he didn't find Ling Qing'er in the crowd in the scripture hall, and thought that she was at the critical juncture of breaking through the realm, but he didn't expect that the breakthrough realm was over. It just didn't succeed, but he was injured. Through this incident, Lu Chen suddenly realized that the cultivation of the True Gang Realm was probably much more difficult than that of the Qi Sea Realm. Perhaps, this is also the defect left by the Qi Sea Realm, which is reflected in the True Gang Realm. As soon as he thought of this, Lu Chen's mood became a little heavier, he was confident that he would also step into the Zhengang realm in the future, Ling Qing'er's failure to break through the realm was not good news for the sect, and it was also not good news for him!

"This time, there will be elders and disciples from other sects coming to watch. Feng Shui Han said.

"Which sect?" Lu Chen's heart moved, holding the identity stone tablet in his hand, and asked back.
