Chapter 312: Ill-intentioned
Xu Chen looked grateful and inexplicable, and followed the old man all the way to thank and laugh, and the old man was also very enthusiastic and talkative, and kept saying that he would definitely help Xu Chen with a few kind words later, and promised not to disappoint Xu Chen.
Lin Qiuya followed behind the two, looking at Xu Chen's back with confusion and horror.
She didn't know that Xu Chen would have so many high-grade soul beads in his hands.
Each of these grains can be sold for a lot of money in any immortal gate.
Especially the soul bead that was taken out at the end was extremely rare in the fairy world, at least Lin Qiuya had never seen such a big soul bead, and the aura emitted made her even more frightened, even if the Great Soul Cultivator saw it, he would definitely be greedy.
Although her cultivation is not high, she also knows the truth that wealth cannot be exposed.
At the same time, she could also feel that the three people of Xuanhuamen were unpredictable, obviously with ulterior motives.
But she had seen Xu Chen's strength and knew that his strength could not be taken lightly, Xu Chen must have his own plans when he acted like this.
In addition, if you want to find out about the situation of the two female cultivators of Taiyuan Gate in Xuanhua Gate, you really need to go deep into it.
It's just that the Xuanhua Gate is different from those small and medium-sized immortal gates, but there are several large immortal sects in the seat of the True Spirit Realm cultivators, and the strength is extremely strong, once trapped here, I am afraid that the consequences are a little unpredictable.
Therefore, Lin Qiuya was terrified all the way, and she felt that her heart was pounding and she couldn't control it at all.
Soon, the three of them entered the backyard, and at this time, a young monk wearing a dark Taoist robe and a majestic spirit was striding out of a large hall, and when he saw the three of them, his eyes instantly fell on Lin Qiuya, and his face showed a look of amazement.
Xu Chen also swept his eyes slightly, and retracted his gaze.
If this young monk is not mistaken, he is also the top-ranked person on the Tianjiao list, named Shen Gonghao, ranked seventeenth, and is the highest-ranked disciple of the Xuanhua Sect on the Tianjiao list, aged thirty, and cultivated in the early stage of the Danyuan Realm.
Basically, among the younger generation, monks who married before the age of thirty-five can be regarded as supreme geniuses.
Therefore, although Shen Gonghao is not ranked in the top ten, his strength is still very strong, and his qualifications are actually much stronger than those of Yi Zhen and Song Qingzhi.
The reason why it was compared to the Yuqing Hall this time was because the Taiyuan Soul Entering Pill was too rebellious.
Xu Chen now knew that the white qi he had integrated into the elixir was actually the qi of the immortal spirit, that was to say, it was something that only true immortals could touch, and there was no one in the mortal realm at all.
The Qi of the Immortal Spirit is actually a kind of heaven and earth energy that is higher than the Aura, and it is the source of the Qi of the Five Elements.
The qi of the five elements is the foundation of all things in heaven and earth.
Therefore, after the Yuqing Hall obtained Xu Chen's dozens of bottles of Taiyuan Soul Pill, the core disciples and the personal disciples were allocated the most, so the qualifications have also been significantly improved and strengthened, coupled with the huge resources of the Yuqing Palace, it suddenly broke out, and eight Yudan monks suddenly appeared like a blowout, making the strength of the sect soar.
Of course, because of this, the great name of the Taiyuan Soul Pills caused a violent shock in the Shenzhou Immortal Realm.
"Ninth Elder, where are these two fellow Daoists from, and where are you going?" The young monk asked, standing on the steps at the entrance of the main hall, in a tone that was not very respectful.
The old man didn't care, but smiled and said, "These two are Daoists from the Xuanqing Sect of Eastern Wu, and I am about to take them to visit Elder Taishang."
Shen Gonghao couldn't help frowning and said, "Xuanqing Sect, a sect that I have never heard of, how could Elder Taishang receive it, and the Ninth Elder didn't take the benefits?"
The old man choked, his face was a little ugly, but he instantly returned to normal and said with a dry smile: "What are you talking about, the two Daoists originally came to Xuanhua Gate, and the big war is imminent, and the introduction of Elder Taishang is just to make more preparations for the upcoming war, if you have something, go and get busy!"
After speaking, the old man turned to Xu Chen and smiled at the others, "Two Taoist friends, please!"
"Hmph, so sneaky, I really thought I was an idiot, Elder Taishang is not in the temple right now, you recommend a fart!"
Seeing the three of them leave and enter the apse, Shen Gonghao snorted coldly and walked away with disdain on his face.
The speaker was unintentional, listening intentionally, although Shen Gonghao's voice was not loud, but Xu Chen let go of his divine sense at this time, and was secretly searching for the whereabouts of the two senior sisters, so he naturally heard this sentence clearly, so he glanced at the old man in front of him, his eyes showed a trace of coldness, and at the same time, Lin Qiuya said:
"Lin Daoyou, this old man has a bad heart, I'm afraid there will be some trouble on this trip, don't panic no matter what happens later!"
Lin Qiuya's heart panicked for a while, but she still resisted the horror and nodded slightly.
Soon, the three of them passed through the apse and came to a very remote courtyard.
There are piles of rubble everywhere, and there are some houses that have not been repaired and look like they have been abandoned.
On top of the stone wall carved out in the northeast corner of the courtyard, there was a stone gate, which was covered with runes and lines, flickering with violent aura fluctuations, obviously a formation.
The old man stood still in front of the stone gate, put his hands on the stone gate, activated the formation, and then shouted loudly at the stone gate, "Elder Tianhong, the disciple brought two Taoist friends from the Eastern Wu Xuanqing Sect to visit!"
After speaking, the old man pretended to listen attentively, and for a moment he seemed to receive the transmission of divine consciousness, so he said to Xu Cheng and the others with a happy face: "Xu Daoyou, Elder Tianhong has agreed to meet the two, please."
With a few clicks, the stone door slowly opened, revealing a dark cave.
Xu Chen's divine sense looked inside and found that it was empty, so he pretended to be surprised and said, "Ninth Elder, there seems to be no one inside!"
"Haha, how could it be, Elder Tianhong is inside, let's go in!"
After the old man finished speaking, he raised his hand and threw out a black array disk, which suddenly enlarged the size of more than ten zhang, and the light and shadow of the formation flashed, and it disappeared from the courtyard wrapped around Xu Chen and Lin Qiuya.
When the light and shadow dissipated, the two found that they had been imprisoned in a damp and dark grotto, with several illusory spiritual chains wrapped around their bodies.
"Ninth Elder, what do you mean by that?" Xu Chen pretended to be surprised and shouted loudly.
"Hahahaha......"
The old man walked out of the darkness with his hands in his hands, looked at the two who were tied up, and laughed.
"Two mountain cultivators who don't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth, dare to run around with so many high-grade soul beads, they deserve to make a fortune today."
After speaking, the old man walked up to Xu Chen, stretched out his hand and rolled up his sleeve, and was slightly stunned when he saw a dark gold bracelet on his arm, but then smiled even more happily.
"I can't imagine that in the realm of Dongwu, there are still immortals who can afford such a high-level storage magic weapon, and today's wealth is far beyond the phenomenon......
After the old man finished speaking, he took off the bracelet from Xu Chen's arm, and his divine sense probed into it for a while, and found that he couldn't open the soul lock formation, so he looked at Xu Chen and said, "If you know each other, hand over the secret method of opening the soul lock, and when the Immortal Alliance Conference is over, I will naturally let you live, otherwise ......."
"How else?" Xu Chen said with a frightened face.
"Otherwise, it's a dead end, wait until I kill you, and then find the answer from your young and beautiful junior sister!" The old man sneered.
"You...... I warn you, don't mess around, if you dare to touch my junior sister, I will definitely kill you!" Xu Chen struggled in shock and anger.
"Hahahaha, if you know each other, the old man will naturally not touch her, to be honest, the old man is not interested in women, only interested in your bracelet and the things inside, as long as you say how to open the soul lock, I promise not to hurt the two of you a single hair." The old man laughed.
"You...... If you really open the bracelet, you won't kill us?" Xu Chen stammered in horror.
"Naturally, the old man is also a decent monk, it is easy to kill you, so why bother to act up."
Xu Chen hesitated for a long time and gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, then I'll tell you, but the secret method of this soul lock is a bit special, not just formulas and exercises, it also needs to be combined with a soul spell, you can temporarily let go of my ban, otherwise I won't be able to cast it!"
The old man hesitated and nodded, "Yes, but I warn you, don't escape or resist by chance, this is a dungeon used to detain monks in this sect, and it is a killing array set up by the great monk himself, even if you break free from the ban, too."
There is absolutely no way to escape, once the formation is activated, you will be directly strangled to ashes, so don't die to blame the old man for not reminding you."
Xu Chen's face turned pale and he quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, as long as the elder doesn't kill me and my junior sister, I will definitely not run!"
"Well, there is no harm in cooperating with you, the Immortal Alliance Conference will be held in two days, and then all the monks will be withdrawn, and this big array will be abandoned, so you will naturally be able to leave alive......
As the old man spoke, he clicked a few times out of thin air on the magic trick in his hand, and the spiritual light chains tied to Xu Chen's body suddenly loosened a few copies, and Xu Chen felt that most of the power pressed on the divine soul disappeared in an instant.
In fact, this array ban can't trap him at all, but forcibly breaking free will inevitably cause a lot of movement, once it alarms the entire Xuanhua Sect and provokes a large number of monks from the Danyuan Realm and even the Transformation Spirit Realm, it is still a question whether they can escape smoothly, even if the Ghost Spirit Divine Monarch rescues him in time, he does not dare to guarantee that Lin Qiuya can survive.
What's more, Xu Chen's purpose was not to make trouble, but to lay a few shadows in the Xuanhua Gate, so that he could more accurately find out the whereabouts of the two senior sisters and protect them secretly.
What he didn't expect was that this matter had gone so far and was a bit unbelievable.
It can be seen from this that the so-called famous factions, bullying the weak, abducting, cheating, killing, bullying men and women have become a norm, and behind the sanctimoniousness, there are dirty and shameless deeds.
Although Xu Chen believed that it was a bit too much to kill them all with one stick, and there was no shortage of decent immortal sects like Yuqing Hall in the Immortal Gate, but a sect like Xuanhuamen, which could capture the two senior sisters and imprison Xuanchen Zhenjun and force him to hand over the Taiyuan Soul Pill, was definitely the scum and garbage of the Immortal Realm, and this sect should not have anything good from top to bottom.
Just now he tried to leak a little treasure, and it immediately aroused their greed.
Now, it's time for him to reap the fruits.
