The old gentleman was called out by Ji Chen, and couldn't help but take two steps back and look at Ji Chen again.

In a golden pill period, in front of him, he calmly revealed his identity, either because his brain was missing a string, or he hid his cultivation.

He was faintly on guard, observing the surroundings to see if there was an ambush against him, and then asked tentatively, "Your Excellency is from the Immortal Palace Holy Land?" Or Heavenly Demon Island? ”

Ji Chen heard him ask, and understood that his trip was not in vain, and this person really knew some secrets.

"Relax, I have no ill will." Ji Chen said, "You and I can communicate with each other." ”

With a wave of his hand, several large attack formations arranged around the academy were already ready to attack, but they died down in an instant.

The old gentleman was extremely frightened, just because he was ready to show his body for a battle, but the boiling True Yuan in his body instantly subsided when Ji Chen waved his hand.

At the same time, the escape talisman hidden in his sleeve was a hole card to escape when he was defeated, which had originally become hot due to his injection of a trace of true yuan, but now it has also cooled down.

He instantly understood that the true strength of this Jindan monk in front of him was so terrifying that he couldn't imagine it!

The old gentleman took a deep breath, gave up any plan to escape and resist, and asked, "What is the matter with the seniors looking for the little old man?" ”

Ji Chen didn't want to make unnecessary explanations, so he directly released the fox demon soul and the six young foxes.

"This ......" The old gentleman didn't react to what was going on when he saw so many people of the same clan.

But seeing the fox demon's soul, he angrily asked what happened to the fox demon.

After asking what happened, he sighed and wanted to express his gratitude to Ji Chen, but was pulled aside by Ji Chen.

Watching Ji Chen and the old gentleman enter the school, Senior Sister Xiaorou asked the fox demon in disbelief: "Is that old gentleman really a great demon during the Tribulation Period?" ”

"The Ancestor was cultivated during the Tribulation Period as early as four thousand years ago." The fox demon replied.

That senior brother is too bold, and he has no stage fright in front of the catastrophe demon...... Senior Sister Xiaorou was a little worried that Ji Chen's attitude would make the catastrophe demon unhappy.

But in fact, in the school, the old gentleman bowed to Ji Chen respectfully.

"Thank you seniors for your help."

"I'm just doing it easily, this time I came here mainly because there are some things I want to know from you." Ji Chen looked at him, "What do you call it?" ”

"Xiao Lao'er was originally from the Qingqiu fox clan, and he gave himself a common name called Hu Qingqiu, and it is not in the way for the seniors to call him whatever he wants."

Ji Chen nodded: "I heard that you have experienced a long time, and you have witnessed a lot of history, how much do you know about the closure of the immortal and demon passage more than three thousand years ago?" ”

Hu Qingqiu was a little surprised when he heard this, in his opinion, Ji Chen's cultivation was extremely terrifying, he must have lived longer than him, and he knew more than him, but it seemed that Ji Chen was not clear about the history more than three thousand years ago.

He couldn't help but guess in his heart the origin of Ji Chen: either he was a figure who had only risen in the last three thousand years, or he had smuggled from the fairy world or the demon world.

But no matter what the situation was, Ji Chen's strength was there, he didn't dare to slack off, paused, and replied:

"Regarding the inside story of the closure of the fairy and demon channel, Xiao Lao'er doesn't know, but what I have heard and seen for more than 4,000 years has made me have some guesses about it, if the seniors don't dislike it, I will say to listen to the seniors, whether it is true or false, right or wrong, and I can judge it with the wisdom of my predecessors."

Ji Chen nodded and motioned for him to continue.

"More than 3,000 years ago, a period of time before the closure of the immortal and demon passage, when my cultivation was barely in the middle of the tribulation, an ancestor in my clan who had completed the tribulation said to me, even if there is a trace of certainty, I should cross the tribulation and ascend as soon as possible, if I can't ascend, I will hide as soon as possible, and soon after that ancestor said this, he successfully crossed the tribulation and became an immortal and flew away."

"I wasn't very sure about my escape at the time, and I was hesitating, but soon I heard that the immortal and demon passage was closed, and the ascension was completely hopeless, so I listened to the words of the old ancestor, left the clan, went incognito, and turned into a mortal to live in the world."

"Everything that happened after that, I am extremely glad of my decision, not long after the closure of the immortal and demon passage, there will be immortal Dao powerhouses and demon Dao powerhouses searching everywhere, and all the strong people in the Tribulation Period must be registered, among which the peak of the Tribulation or the strength is extraordinarily strong, and they will soon be summoned to kill themselves, and they will be besieged and killed by a group of Tribulation Period."

"According to my observation, those strong people in the Tribulation Period are all from the Heavenly Demon Island and the Immortal Palace Holy Land, they are secretly searching for major families and sects, and even the demon beasts in our 100,000 mountains are not spared, and they are powerful, and they are expected to be wiped out successfully, and the slightly weaker Tribulation Period will also become their object of observation, and once they grow to the peak of the Tribulation, they may be poisoned by them. For so many years, I have been uprooted from my homeland and hidden from the world, so that I have not been seen by them. ”

"In fact, later, with the change of the Heavenly Tribulation, even the strong people at the peak of the Tribulation were almost hopeless if they wanted to successfully survive the Heavenly Tribulation, so the Immortal Palace Holy Land and the Heavenly Demon Island both relaxed their observation of the strong people in the Tribulation Period."

Ji Chen nodded, this was consistent with the information he had learned, when the Immortal Demon Passage was just closed, the Heavenly Tribulation was quite normal, otherwise it would be impossible for the ancestor of the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Gate three thousand years ago to succeed in the Tribulation.

But later, the Heavenly Tribulation was strengthened, and the Immortal Palace Holy Land and the Heavenly Demon Island mainly focused their prevention targets on groups such as Qiu Shanfang.

After listening to Hu Qingqiu's words, Ji Chen thought for a moment and asked, "What do you think is their purpose in doing this?" ”

Hu Qingqiu said: "The killing of the powerful tribulation period must be to prevent someone from succeeding in the tribulation and becoming an immortal. ”

"Then why don't you kill all of them? Once and for all, I believe that the Asgard Holy Land and the Heavenly Demon Island also have this strength. ”

Hu Qingqiu shook his head: "Because they still want to keep me to consume spiritual energy during the tribulation period." ”

It was the first time Ji Chen had heard such a statement, and he couldn't help but look slightly moved.

Hu Qingqiu continued: "The higher the cultivation, the more aura needs to be consumed, and with the loss of the aura infusion of the two realms of immortals and demons in the cultivation realm, the aura is getting thinner and thinner, and it cannot be replenished. ”

"Are you saying that the purpose of the Immortal Palace Holy Land and Heavenly Demon Island is to drain the spiritual energy of the Cultivation Realm?"

"According to my observation in the past three thousand years, this is true, the entire cultivation realm is like a breeding farm, and our monks are all livestock that have been raised in captivity, once a certain livestock is too strong, it may jump out of the fence, and it will naturally be slaughtered."

"Now that the fence has been heightened and reinforced, it's almost impossible for any more livestock to jump out, just wait for the animals to grow fat and wait for the harvest."
