Volume 1 The Mortal Realm Chapter 360 The First Offering
On a deserted island somewhere in the northern waters of the Central Continent, a young monk looked up at the sky, exhaled a breath of turbidity, and said to himself, "Finally restored all your cultivation!"
The young monk was none other than Lu Chen, who was seriously injured after Fang Dahong of the Four Spirits Sect and Fan Shizhang of the Red Flame Sect blew themselves up that day.
Although Lu Chen's injuries recovered after taking the blue water spirit pulp, his cultivation showed faint signs of falling to the early stage of the god transformation realm, so he found a secluded island to meditate and cultivate.
After a year of retreat, Lu Chen's cultivation was finally fully restored.
At this time, Lu Chen had the heart to look at the spoils of the battle outside Zhongtian City a year ago.
Lu Chen took out the ancient seal first, and after checking it, Lu Chen showed a strange expression, because from the breath of this ancient seal, it was obviously a ninth-order mid-grade magic weapon, but it could only exert the power of a ninth-order low-grade magic weapon.
took out the copper lamp again, and after careful observation, Lu Chen found that it was actually a remnant.
Lu Chen fell into deep thought, a fragment of a product could exert a power comparable to that of a ninth-order lower-grade magic weapon, once it was successfully repaired, the power would inevitably exceed that of the ancient seal and his bone sword.
His own Zhenxian Pagoda can't be used in a grand manner, and now he doesn't have many hole cards in his hand, so he will inevitably be overstretched in the face of such a powerful enemy as Xuandao Sect. After thinking about it carefully, Lu Chen decided to go back to the Southern Continent first and find the Jin Ding Sect to repair these two magic weapons.
The closest place to this small island is a small city called Thousand Bird Castle, where many spirit boats go to the southern continent.
Three days later, Lu Chen arrived at Thousand Bird City.
Just when Lu Chen first appeared, an old man was thrown in front of him, and after his eyes inadvertently saw Lu Chen, a bright light flashed in this person's eyes, he hurriedly walked towards Lu Chen, his face was excited, and he arched his hand to Lu Chen and said, "May I ask who is in front of Lu Chen?"
Lu Chen looked up and saw that the gray-clothed old man who spoke seemed to be a late-stage cultivator.
Lu Chen clasped his fists and saluted, "It's Lu!
The gray-clothed old man said, "Old man Qin Yongyuan, it's a first-order casual cultivator, I don't know if I can have a discussion with a fellow Daoist?"
The gray-clothed old man was none other than Qin Yongyuan, one of the six major cultivators in the Central Continent, majoring in thunder-based magic powers.
Qin Yongyuan searched for Lu Chen in the Central Continent for a year, but he never found Lu Chen, the old man didn't expect to meet Lu Chen in this remote town.
Lu Chen's brows furrowed slightly after hearing this, if it wasn't necessary, he really didn't want to waste time.
Suddenly, a thought sprouted in Lu Chen's heart, compared with these sects in Beihai, the biggest gap between the Lingyun Star Sect and these sects in Beihai was that there were too few high-level monks, if the old man in front of him could be subdued, then the Lingyun Star Sect would be able to have one more late-stage cultivator.
"Elder Qin, I can compete with you, but there is a request below!" Lu Chen said with a smile.
"Lu Daoyou, please say?" Qin Yongyuan heard that Lu Chen was willing to agree to compete with him, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said politely.
"If you win in Xia, Elder Qin needs to join my Lingyun Star Sect as the Taishang Worshipper!" Lu Chen said with a smile.
Qin Yongyuan thought that it had been hundreds of years since he had broken through to the late stage of the Transformation of the Gods, and the young monk in front of him was only a mid-stage Transformation Cultivator, and he had no reason to lose to him at all, so he nodded in agreement.
But then the old man regretted a little in his heart, how could he forget that Lu Chen had killed the existence of the four gods of the Four Spirit Sect and the Red Flame Sect in the late stage.
Pressing the distracting thoughts in his heart, the old man and Lu Chen came to the square in the city.
Qin Yongyuan had been famous in the Central Continent for a long time, and when he heard that he was going to fight with others, thousands of monks flocked to the square at once.
"Li San, how could Senior Qin have a fight with a mid-stage cultivator of the Transformation Spirit, and this person is still so young. One of the monks in the audience said to another person beside him.
"Zhao Si, you don't even know him, he is a famous predecessor of Lu Chen. The other replied.
The man who had just spoken looked at Lu Chen's gaze, and he was suddenly filled with endless worship
of color.
The conversation between the two was just a microcosm, and all the monks who recognized Lu Chen showed fanatical reverence in their eyes.
On the square, Qin Yongyuan bowed to Lu Chen.
Then the old man pinched his hands, and a dazzling thunder light appeared in his palm, this person was a Lei Xiu, and his magic power was to use the power of the thunder and lightning law in his Yuan Shen in the most direct way.
I only heard a boom, and a thunderbolt flashed out in the palm of the old man's right hand, heading straight for Lu Chen.
To the old man's surprise, Lu Chen did not offer any defense, and chose to resist his own palm thunder power with his body.
Not only the old man, but also the monks watching the battle in the audience were also worried that Lu Chen would be injured because of this.
This thunderbolt slammed down on Lu Chen's body, and Lu Chen's whole body suddenly swam away with lightning, making a crackling sound.
After a few breaths, the lightning vanished.
Everyone, including Qin Yongyuan, was dumbfounded, the thunder and lightning he had just sent out was comparable to the full force of a mid-stage cultivator, how could it be so easily dissolved?
However, the old man surnamed Qin immediately reacted, if Lu Chen did not have a thunder treasure on his body, then it could only mean that Lu Chen's comprehension of the power of the law of thunder and lightning was still above him.
Taking a deep breath, a lightning strike condensed from the old man's palm again, but this time the power had reached the late stage of the transformation of the gods.
Lu Chen was still physically attacked by the old man, and he was unscathed.
In the shocked gaze of the old man and the monk watching the battle, the old man's thunderbolt was grabbed by Lu Chen in his hand, and it continued to condense and contract, forming a thunderball the size of a fist.
Lu Chen pointed forward, and the thunderball flew out directly, rushing towards the old man like lightning.
The old man hurriedly condensed a spiritual power shield in front of him.
The thunderball smashed down on the shield with an earth-shattering bang, and after a few breaths, the shield shattered, and the thunderball turned into thin lightning and disappeared.
The old man surnamed Qin now knew that Lu Chen was also Lei Xiu, and Lu Chen's comprehension of the power of the law of thunder and lightning was still above him.
Lu Chen let out a light breath in his mouth, "Spiritual power transformation!"
I saw Lu Chen's hands pinching, and in an instant, a purple thunder beast with thunder light all over his body conjured up in front of him, and after the thunder beast appeared, it roared, turned into a thunderbolt, and went straight to the old man surnamed Qin.
Although Lu Chen only has a mid-stage cultivation of the gods, he has a complete origin of thunder, although he is still in the growth stage, but it is not comparable to ordinary thunder cultivation, and the strength of the thunder beasts he has condensed at the moment has reached the realm of the late stage of the gods.
After doing all this, Lu Chen's face became a little pale, and at this moment, with his cultivation, he could only condense a thunder beast.
The old man surnamed Qin was overjoyed when he saw Lu Chen's weak appearance of spiritual power, and he controlled the magic weapon to quickly fight with the thunder beast.
A moment later, the thunderbeast's energy ran out, and it dissipated into the air as tiny thunderbolts.
At the moment when the old man surnamed Qin wanted to control the magic weapon to attack Lu Chen, he saw Lu Chen take something out of the storage ring and take it, and then his face was ruddy, and he looked full of spiritual power.
Then Lu Chen once again mobilized the origin power of the thunder in the primordial god, condensing the spiritual power in his body into a thunder beast with the strength of the late stage of the god.
The thunder beast roared and pounced towards the old man surnamed Qin.
The old man had no choice but to let go of the idea of attacking Lu Chen, and instead dealt with the roaring thunder beast.
A moment later, the thunder beast's energy that was fighting against the old man was exhausted again and disappeared unchanged.
Before the thunder beast disappeared, Lu Chen took out a few drops of blue water spirit pulp and swallowed it, and his body instantly returned to its peak state.
Then, Lu Chen once again condensed a thunder beast and bit towards the old man surnamed Qin.
The monks around the square were already numb at the moment, except for the old man who took the initiative to attack at the beginning, and most of the time after that, the old man had been tired of defense, in their opinion, the old man's defeat was only a matter of time.
Sure enough, after a few hours, the spiritual power in the old man's body was basically exhausted.
"Lu Daoyou, the old man admits defeat!" surnamed Qin's expression was bitter, and he smiled bitterly at Lu Chen and hugged his fist.
"Elder Qin, the bet we made just now is still valid?" Lu Chen asked with a smile.
"Lu Daoyou, the old man's words always count!" Then the old man surnamed Qin turned his eyes to the monks around him, and said loudly, "Please be a witness, the old man will be the supreme worship of the Lingyun Star Sect from today onwards!"
At the level of the God Monarch, even if he doesn't make a demon oath, he will generally fulfill the promise he made.
"Old Qin, are you drinking, how about I invite you to have a drink?" Lu Chen said.
"Lu Daoyou, although the old man is not a wine connoisseur, I don't drink ordinary wine. The old man surnamed Qin said with a smile.
"Old Qin, I won't let you down!" Lu Chen smiled mysteriously.
Then the two walked into the largest restaurant in Thousand Bird City.
When the shopkeeper of the restaurant saw the arrival of the two gods, he hurriedly asked Xiao Er to wait carefully, and after a while, Xiao Er brought several of the store's best signature dishes and a pot of spirit wine.
Lu Chen took out a small pot of spirit wine from the storage ring and poured a glass for Qin Yongyuan and himself.
Lu Chen said from the bottom of his heart, "Old Qin, I didn't mean to design with you, please forgive me!"
Qin Yongyuan could hear the sincerity in Lu Chen's words, waved his hand and said, "The old man is willing to gamble and lose!"
After speaking, Qin Yongyuan raised his wine glass and drank it.
This taste......
In an instant, the old man's eyes lit up and he asked, "Lu Daoyou, could this be the Hundred Flowers Immortal Brew?"
Lu Chen nodded and asked, "Does Old Qin know about this wine?"
The old man surnamed Qin said, "All people who are good at wine will rate this wine as the number one spirit wine in the mortal realm!"
Qin Yongyuan was aroused by alcohol addiction this time, and asked a little embarrassedly, "Lu Daoyou, I don't know if you still have this Hundred Flowers Immortal Brew, can you give me a small pot?"
Without the slightest hesitation, Lu Chen took out a large pot from the storage ring and handed it to Qin Yongyuan.
"The whole big pot was given to me?" Qin Yongyuan asked in disbelief.
Lu Chen nodded, at the beginning, Peng Lao gave him ten pots, he gave Wu Lisheng, the elder of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance, a pot, plus the ones that have been drunk one after another in the past few years, after giving away this pot at this moment, there are still seven pots in his storage ring.
Qin Yongyuan hurriedly carefully put the spirit wine into the storage ring, but he was faintly curious in his heart, what was the relationship between Lu Chen and Peng Lao, the owner of the Hundred Flowers Residence, it was impossible for the Hundred Flowers Residence to buy such a large pot of Hundred Flowers Immortal Brew at one time.
Since they have a common hobby, the two quickly became acquainted.
After Qin Yongyuan learned Lu Chen's true identity, he began to commensurate with Lu Chen's sect master.
"Sect Master, maybe you don't know, there are five other Daoists who want to challenge you, thanks to the love of Daoists on the mainland, we are called the six major scattered cultivators in the Middle Continent. Qin Yongyuan said.
When Lu Chen heard this, his eyes suddenly showed a fiery color.
Seeing Lu Chen's expression, Qin Yongyuan instantly guessed Lu Chen's thoughts, and said, "Sect Master, you don't want to recruit those five people into your command, do you?"
Lu Chen's expression instantly became extremely serious, and he arched his hand to the old man and said, "I do have this idea, and I ask Old Qin to help me!"
Qin Yongyuan said, "Although I am very familiar with them, they are all people who are obsessed with cultivation, if the sect master does not have a strong strength to convince them, it is impossible for them to join the Lingyun Star Sect!"
Lu Chen said with great confidence, "Elder Qin only needs to help me make an appointment with them to the Scattered Cultivation Alliance, I will go to the Southern Continent first, and I will come back in about a year." ”
Qin Yongyuan nodded, he knew that his five old friends were also looking for Lu Chen to compete, as long as the news that Lu Chen would appear in the Scattered Cultivation Alliance a year later spread, these five people would definitely appear one by one.
After chatting for a while, Lu Chen got up and left, and after leaving the city, he went straight to the dock, and found a spirit boat on the dock to go to the Southern Continent.
