Chapter 159: The Vault Dweller's Crisis

Xu Ling came to Ji Chen's place on time the next day, and he didn't do much on the day he went out, not just to see his son.

In just a few years, he was promoted from a sixth-rank formation master to a seventh-rank formation grandmaster, shocking the entire Holy Land Alliance.

You must know that there is a big hurdle between the sixth and seventh grades, and many formation masters have been trapped in this step all their lives.

This kind of promotion speed is unprecedented, it is no longer a genius to describe, it is definitely an earth-shattering adventure.

Liu Yi, the peak master of Zaidao Peak, is now in charge of the formation management of the entire Holy Land Alliance, and he doesn't have much energy to deal with the internal affairs of Zaidao Peak, so he immediately promoted Xu Ling to the deputy peak master, but let him do what the peak master should do.

This is to cultivate Xu Ling as the next peak master, that is, Xu Ling's cultivation is still a little behind, otherwise Liu Yi may give way now.

After Xu Ling was promoted to the deputy peak master, he immediately went to show off in front of his father Xu Delong, and put on a wave of deputy peak master's shelf, he is now higher than his father.

As a result, he was slapped by Xu Delong.

"You just became the sect master, Lao Tzu is still your Lao Tzu!"

Xu Ling felt that it made sense, his status was rising now, and he should really take care of his old father.

So he didn't shy away from suspicion, employs nepotism, and says that he wants to retreat and impact the eight-rank formation grandmaster, and has no time to be distracted, so he lets his father manage the Dao Peak on his behalf.

Xu Delong, who is already semi-retired, was forced to re-emerge from the rivers and lakes within a few years of teasing his grandson, worrying about carrying Daofeng.

The news of Xu Ling's promotion to Formation Grandmaster soon reached Lan Qingxue's ears.

In just over ten years, Xu Ling has risen from a fourth-grade array mage to a seventh-grade array master, and there is definitely a big problem in this, and it can't be done without a big chance.

She thought of Ji Chen for the first time, because she knew that Ji Chen had obtained the inheritance of the Luo Chen Immortal Venerable Formation, and Ji Chen and Xu Ling had a good relationship.

It is very likely that Xu Ling obtained some inheritance from Luo Chen's Immortal Venerable formation through Ji Chen.

The key is that Xu Lingdu has become a formation master, what about Ji Chen? And what level? It's not worse than Xu Ling, right?

Lan Qingxue found that she still underestimated the heir of this senior brother Luo Chen.

So, she immediately sent someone to summon Xu Ling, but learned that Xu Ling had already retreated and was preparing to attack the eighth grade, and no one knew the place of retreat.

At this time, Xu Ling had re-entered the formation tower that Ji Chen had tailored for him.

When he comes out again, he will be an eight-rank array mage.

Unable to find Xu Ling, Lan Qingxue pondered for a moment and decided to talk to Ji Chen, saying that she had never spoken to Ji Chen alone.

But when she sent someone to find Ji Chen's cave mansion, it was Senior Sister Xiaorou who walked out of it, and Senior Sister Xiaorou informed the person who came that Senior Brother Ji Chen had gone out to travel.

One goes out for retreat, the other goes out for travel, so coincidentally?

Lan Qingxue frowned, and said in her heart that she wouldn't be avoiding me, right?

But she is not in a hurry, because in two months, it will be the day of the Holy Land Competition, and she knows that Xu Ling and Ji Chen will appear in the Holy Land Competition, the two have been losing in the ring for many years, and every time the Holy Land Competition will participate.

"Senior brother has been defeated for four hundred years in a row, if it weren't for the birth of the Demon Lord, I'm afraid he wouldn't have exposed his strength, Ji Chen has won the inheritance of his senior brother, and he has been defeated for more than three hundred years."

"Now Xu Ling is suspected of getting the formation inheritance of his senior brother from Ji Chen, and he has also started to lose in the big competition in the past few years, what is the connection between the inheritance of the senior brother and the defeat in the big competition? The more you lose, the stronger you get? ”

Lan Qingxue only felt that this matter was a bit incredible, but she couldn't think of a better explanation.

"I'll ask Ji Chen when the time comes."

……

Ji Chen was indeed deliberately avoiding Lan Qingxue.

After all, there are flaws in lies, and it is better to say more and not tell them if you don't see them.

It's not time to reveal your identity yet.

Ji Chen continued to refine his clones in the small world.

Two months later, in the Holy Land Dabi, he went out to fight three consecutive defeats, and immediately returned to the small world.

As soon as the Holy Land Dabi ended, Lan Qingxue sent people to find him and Xu Ling again, but they were still empty.

"I made a special trip back to participate in the big competition, and I left as soon as the game was over?"

This made Lan Qingxue more and more suspicious, Ji Chen was avoiding her, and she began to doubt Ji Chen's strength in her heart.

Before, she thought that Ji Chen was the strength of the Transformation Period, and she also tried it, but now it seems that there is a high probability that it will be more than that.

This time in the Holy Land Competition, Ji Chen also released a task before the game as before, which made his losing streak go smoothly.

However, the use of this trick many times in a row has also made more and more people pay attention to the dust, and the number of dust-breaking organizations has increased rapidly.

In addition, he once again used Fan Xiuqi's identity to fight consecutive defeats, which also made many people feel that something was wrong, once or twice before, Fan Xiuqi was defeated and could be said to be in bad condition or bad luck, but this time his opponent was a person who was obviously inferior to him, but he was still defeated.

There are already many people who suspect that Fan Xiuqi lost the game on purpose.

"The one who is close to Zhu is red, the one who is close to ink is black, Senior Brother Fan always plays with Senior Brother Ji and Senior Brother Xu, and he was finally taken away."

"It seems that losing streaks is addictive, and it can be contagious."

"But I have to say that Senior Brother Xu and Senior Brother Fan have been getting stronger and stronger since they played match-fixing with Senior Brother Ji, Senior Brother Xu has become a formation master, and Senior Brother Fan has also broken through to the stage of transforming into a god."

"Only Senior Brother Ji is standing still, or Jin Dan is cultivating, I don't know if he has hidden his strength."

"Senior Brother Ji is not conspicuous on weekdays, except for Dabi, no one has ever seen him make a move."

This was the topic that everyone discussed after the game, Ji Chen just didn't hear it, and returned to the small world to continue refining the clone.

By the time of the next Holy Land Competition, his clone should have been refined.

……

A few months later, before Ji Chen's clone was refined, there was good news from the Demon Realm.

The clone of the Season Dust Demon Realm has been in contact with the Vault Dweller Jian Ping's family, and now it can be regarded as having established some meager trust.

Ji Chen has been trying to get Jian Ping to help him contact the remnants of the sword master, but there has been no progress, and Ji Chen doesn't know if the remnants of the sword master are really difficult to find, or if Jian Ping is unwilling to help at all.

But this time, Jian Ping told Ji Chen that in a few days, the Vault Dweller would hold a gathering in the void, and their Jian family would also go over to visit, and they might encounter the remnants of the Sword Master at that time.

The Vault Dwellers are short of resources, so they hold regular gatherings every once in a while, mainly to facilitate the exchange of resources and take what they need.

The time of each meeting is very different, but the location is rescheduled, and the location will be notified in a special way a week before the meeting starts.

Vault Dwellers who wish to attend the rally should keep an eye out for news a week before the rally begins.

It was said that Ji Chen was quite interested in the Vault Dweller's gathering, but Jian Ping didn't trust him that much, and it was impossible to tell him the location of the event.

"It's hard to find a way out in the void, how can you make sure everyone can find a place to hold a meeting?" Ji Chen asked.

An hour later, he received a reply from Jian Ping: "We have lived in the void for so many years, and we have summed up a lot of experience, but in fact, we can barely discern the direction, but we are easily misled by some accidents and occasionally make mistakes." ”

"And the place where the rally is held has never been too far from the Tay River, almost all of them are held near the Tay River, and the difference is which section of the river is chosen."

The River Tay connects to the Void, emitting a faint light in the midst of darkness, like a lighthouse in the Void, where every Vault Dweller can find it.

It's just that the Tai River surrounds most of the Demon Realm, and if you don't know which section of the river it is, it's almost impossible to find a meeting place.

"In previous years, the sword guards would send people to participate in the rally, and this time should be no exception, I will give them a copy of the sound transmission jade slip you left behind according to your request, as for whether they will accept it or not, and whether they will contact you after receiving it, it is not for me to decide." Jian Ping said.

The Sword Guard is exactly what the remnants of the Sword Lord call themselves.

Ji Chen responded: "That's natural, in exchange, I will inquire about the news of the cultivation realm for you." ”

Ji Chen didn't expect that the Vault Dwellers would be very interested in the news of the cultivation realm.

If you want to say that who in this entire demon realm knows the current situation of the cultivation realm best, it is none other than Ji Chen.

"Can I ask you why you want to know about the situation in the Cultivation Realm?" Ji Chen asked.

After a while, Jian Ping replied: "It's not impossible to tell you, but this is a piece of information, what are you going to exchange it for?" ”

"Don't worry, the news I found out about the cultivation realm is definitely beyond your imagination, and it won't make you suffer."

"How can I believe empty words? Well, since you don't want to reveal your identity, you don't even want to say your name, then tell me your last name, it's always okay, right? ”

"Season." Ji Chen disdained to lie on such an issue.

After another half an hour, Jian Ping answered Ji Chen's question: "Actually, it is too difficult for us Vault Dwellers to survive in the Demon Realm, we can only survive in the void, we have always wanted to leave the Demon Realm, and the Cultivation Realm is the best place for us, there are no immortals and demons to chase and kill." ”

"But there are rules in the cultivation realm to suppress it, and it is difficult for the strong to stay in the cultivation realm." Ji Chendao.

"I didn't expect you to know a lot, and you even know the rules of suppression, but the rules of the cultivation realm are mainly for immortal emperor-level powerhouses, and other even immortal-level powerhouses are only difficult to enter, and once they enter the cultivation realm, the suppressive power will disappear."

Jian Ping continued: "And even if the cultivation realm can't survive, then we can still enter the immortal realm, the demon realm and the immortal realm are not connected, there is a cultivation realm in between, the survival environment of the immortal realm is much better than the demon realm, there is no need to hide in the void all year round, there are some ancient forces hostile to the primeval immortal emperor will protect us." ”

Ji Chen also understood their plan when he heard this.

They regard the cultivation realm as the first choice, and the immortal realm as the second choice, but even if they go to the immortal realm, they still need to go through the cultivation realm.

Moreover, the strength of the Vault Dweller is not weak, and there are also several emperor-level powerhouses in charge, otherwise they would have been eradicated by the Demon Realm.

Once you reach the fairy world, you can easily gain a foothold.

However, now that the Xiuzhen Realm has become Ji Chen's territory, before the relationship between the two parties is clarified, Ji Chen is not willing to let these Wanderers enter the Xiuzhen Realm.

A group of immortal and demon powerhouses, including the Immortal Emperor and Demon Emperor, are completely out of control, and they don't know what kind of waves they will set off when they break into the cultivation realm.

Ji Chen couldn't expect them to surrender to him, and he wouldn't let them enter the cultivation realm until his strength was unable to suppress these Vault Dwellers.

After finishing the chat with Jian Ping, Ji Chen chatted with the Xiujie Demon King for a few more words.

Since Ji Chen came back from the Taihe Demon Domain, he has been in contact with the Xiujie Demon King, and the two chatted from time to time.

Sometimes it is to discuss the formation, and Ji Chen's occasional "whims" can make the Xiujie Demon King suddenly open, and every time he talks to Ji Chen, he feels that he has gained something.

Ji Chen was already a well-deserved formation wizard in the heart of the Xiujie Demon King, and he also knew that Ji Chen would soon be promoted, so he had even more thoughts on making friends.

Occasionally, the Demon King Xiujie would also look forward to the witch in the Witch Building with Ji Chen, and recall his glorious achievements when he was young.

At that time, he was young and high-spirited, and he carried a gun on his horse, killing seven in and seven out, and even the horse ran weakly, and he changed ten horses in one night......

Every time at this time, Ji Chen would listen silently, and ended up shouting 666, so that the Demon King of Xiujie was extremely useful, and he felt that the Demon Lord of Guanglan felt that this brother could be friended.

No, today he is boasting again.

"Brother Guanglan, today my brother and I have come to the Jinglong Demon Domain, although the witches here are not as good as the Yuan Chu Demon Domain, but they are not far behind, I will definitely take you to see and understand another day."

"Brother Xiujie is at ease, so envious."

"Haha, I also accompanied the Demon Emperor to run errands, but I just stole half a day's leisure."

"Oh? What happened to Lord Laotai River Demon Emperor himself? ”

"This ...... Haha, a little thing, don't mention it. I'll still tell you about the witch of this Jinglong Demon Domain, that taste is really ...... Twists and turns! ”

finally ended the conversation with the Xiujie Demon King, and Ji Chen fell into thought.

The Demon King Xiujie never mentioned the task, explaining that it was by no means a trivial matter, and it was really a trivial matter, how could it be possible for the Taihe Demon Emperor to leave the Taihe Demon Domain and go to the Jinglong Demon Domain?

Jinglong Demon Domain, that is the territory of the Jinglong Demon Emperor, with the Jinglong Demon Emperor in charge, what is it that requires more than two Demon Emperor powerhouses?

Jinglong Demon Domain is also located in the Tai River Basin, bordering the Tai River Demon Domain, not far from the Tai River Demon Domain, but it is by no means close.

Ji Chen frowned, and there was a little guess in his heart, but there was no way to verify it.

The next day, he took the initiative to send a message to the Xiujie Demon King, but the Xiujie Demon King, who had always been back and forth in seconds, did not reply to him until late at night.

"Brother Guanglan, there are some things in the past few days, and I can't get rid of them, and I'll talk to you about them when the matter is over in a few days."

When Ji Chen went back to the past, there was no news.

This situation is similar to when Ji Chen chatted with Jian Ping, as soon as Jian Ping entered the void, she couldn't receive the message, and the next reply may not be long.

"Could it be that the Demon King of Xiujie is also in the void?"

Ji Chentong's hole shrank, what task could he perform in the void? Even need to dispatch more than two Demon Emperors?

The only enemy in the void is the Vault Dweller.

In two days, the Vault Dwellers will hold a rally in the Void near the River Tay.

It seems that everything is on the right track.

Ji Chen immediately transmitted a message to Jian Ping: "Is the location of your assembly close to the Jinglong Demon Domain?" ”
