The Mountains and Rivers Sect, the geese returned to the top of the mountain, and in the Mountains and Rivers Hall, the sect master and all the elders gathered together, and everyone had obvious worries on their faces.

Tu Xinghai's eyes were full of anger, and he said in a deep voice: "The envoys sent out have all sent a message back, except for the Northern Desolation Sect and the Xuanyi Sect, the other seven major sects have rejected our request for an alliance.

Among them, the Holy Sword Sect, the Wind Thunder Sect and the Xuanwu Sect, which are the lower in strength, have shown an obviously unfriendly attitude, I am afraid that they have been co-opted by the Xuanyi Sect, it seems that this year's Wasteland Sect Competition, they don't intend to make us feel better!"

"These sects, usually have a good relationship with our sect, and they are likely to be threatened by the Northern Desolation Sect. An elder analyzed.

Tu Xinghai nodded and said, "It's not impossible. However, it doesn't matter what the reason is, since they chose to stand on the side of the Northern Desolate Sect, they will no longer take care of the past feelings, and we don't expect them to show mercy at that time, and the preparations that should be made should be done to be sufficient. ”

After a pause, he looked at Great Elder Xu Linxian and asked, "Great Elder, how is the selection of elite disciples going?"

Xu Linxian thought for a while and replied: "The sixty-five core disciples have been notified in place, and they have already begun intensive training, and the thirty-five disciples who are missing need to be selected from the inner disciples, this matter, I originally wanted to ...... during the assessment of the core disciples."

Tu Xinghai waved his hand and said, "I can't wait, we must pick them out as soon as possible, and carry out intensive training as soon as possible!" ”

In this regard, everyone has no objection, the situation faced by the sect is indeed very bad, the sect is big, and the disciples of the Shanhe Sect are likely to face the joint suppression from the Northern Desolation Sect, the Xuanyi Sect, the Holy Sword Sect, the Wind Thunder Sect and the Xuanwu Sect, and regardless of the overall quality of the disciples, in terms of quantity alone, they are already at an absolute disadvantage.

"Tang Chen, are they also called?" asked Xu Linxian.

Tu Xinghai pondered for a moment and replied, "In my opinion, there is little point for them to continue to stay in Hanyang City, and they can come back. However, in this matter, you'd better listen to Tang Chen's opinion, it's up to him to decide, anyway, whether he participates in the assessment or not, he should be a participating disciple of the sect competition. ”

......

After receiving the summons from the Great Elder, even if Tang Chen decided to return to the Mountain and River Sect, because he had basically done what he had to do, and continuing to stay would not have much effect, but would arouse the suspicion of other forces.

He explained some important things to his grandfather, and after asking the White Tiger to send away all the high-level star beasts within a radius of thousands of meters from the entrance of the secret realm, he rushed back to the Mountain and River Sect with Chen Jun and the others.

On the way back, they actually ran into Zhuge Ming and Zhuge Zhi's grandson who went to Hanyang City to inquire about the situation, Tang Chen was indeed a little surprised at first, but after thinking of the mysterious and powerful background of Wanqi Pavilion, he didn't feel strange.

Another thing that Tang Chen didn't expect was that Zhuge Ming had actually refined the Nine Tribulation Bone into the Nine Tribulation Sword, and handed it over to Tang Chen at this time.

This sword really did not disappoint Tang Chen, it had reached the peak of the royal weapon, infinitely close to the imperial weapon, if the star array integrated into it was more clever, it was very likely to become a real imperial weapon.

According to Zhuge Ming, after the Nine Tribulations Bone has been tempered by the Nine Tribulations, it already has growth, that is to say, its grade can continue to grow and improve, which made Tang Chen pleasantly surprised, and had a better understanding of Zhuge Ming's character.

You must know that the refining materials that can grow are extremely rare and precious, and every piece of the present world is likely to cause a bloody storm, and Zhuge Ming actually didn't want to be greedy for such a peerless treasure, which really surprised Tang Chen!

Zhuge Ming seemed to guess what Tang Chen was thinking, and explained with a smile: "I think that compared to Xiaoyou's growth, this Nine Tribulation Sword is not worth mentioning. ”

Tang Chen glanced at Zhuge Ming meaningfully, bowed slightly, and said, "Zhuge senior's intention, Tang Chen has written it down. ”

After Tang Chen's words, Zhuge Ming was secretly happy in his heart, and then asked Tang Chen about the situation of Hanyang City, except for some confidential things, on the surface, Tang Chen did not hide it, and told him without reservation.

After the separation, the two people went their separate ways.

It wasn't until Tang Chen and the others had already disappeared outside the scope of their soul consciousness that Zhuge Ming said to Zhuge Zhi: "This Tang Chen's growth speed is really fast, it's only been a month, and he has a domineering aura that even I am in awe, I really can't imagine it......"

Zhuge Zhi pursed his lips tightly, nodded and replied: "In him, I seem to feel the breath that only the strong people of the family Star Emperor have. ”

Zhuge Ming glanced at Zhuge Ming with satisfaction and said, "Yes, maybe, if our vein wants to return to the Holy Domain, we really have to rely on him......

Zhuge Zhi couldn't help but look back in the direction of Shanhe City, and said, "Grandpa, don't worry, grandson knows what to do." ”

......

After Tang Chen and his entourage said goodbye to Zhuge Ming's grandfather and grandson, they met the hall master of the Mountain and River Auction Hall and his entourage on the way, but Tang Chen didn't know them.

However, the hall master knew Tang Chen, because since Tang Chen was established as the first core disciple of the Mountain and River Sect, the information related to him was sent to the hall master for the first time, including his image information.

As for Su Yuyao, he had already changed his appearance and body by Tang Chen with the secret technique of "secretly contemplating", and even the fluctuation of soul power was concealed, so the hall master did not realize that this person was the consignor who escaped under him that day.

The two teams staggered along the way, not stopping too much and not paying much attention to each other.

In the eyes of the hall master, Tang Chen and the others came back from the direction of Hanyang City, it is very likely that they are going to find out the information of the vision, and now they should go to the sect to restore their lives, there is nothing strange about it, and with his detached identity, there is no need to take the initiative to befriend Tang Chen.

Tang Chen didn't want to do much, he was shocked the first time he saw the hall master, because he didn't expect that he would be able to meet a high-level star king in this wasteland so soon, according to his prediction, a high-level star king or a powerhouse above the star emperor arrived here from outside the wasteland, it should be at least three months later!

A quarter of an hour later, after they had traveled nearly fifty miles, Tang Chen used his soul sense to ask Chen Jun about the situation of the hall master and others he had encountered before, and his intuition told him that these people were most likely from within the wasteland, not from the outer realm.

However, although Chen Jun was a descendant of the nine major families of the Shanhe Sect, he didn't know the hall master of the Shanhe Auction Hall at all, so it can be seen that the hall master's actions were extremely secretive, and ordinary people definitely didn't have the opportunity to contact him.
