In a luxurious cave mansion on the top of the Sword Peak of the Ziwei Sect, a young monk's face was cloudy at the moment.

This person is none other than Han Yushu, the master of Sword Peak Shaofeng.

I saw him bow his head and say to himself, "Deng Ming is dead, but it can't involve me, it's just that Lu Chen is dead or alive!"

Two months ago, not long after Lu Chen set off for the Dongqi Mountains, Deng Ming, the elder of the outer gate, also disappeared.

At the beginning, everyone in the Ziwei Sect thought that Deng Ming had gone out to travel, but it wasn't until the soul lamp he stayed in the sect went out that everyone knew that he was dead.

The high-level of the Ziwei Sect ordered the disciples in the sect to strictly investigate the cause of this person's death, but no one knew where Deng Ming went before he died, and who killed him.

As a result, the matter became an unsolved case, although it was not resolved in the end, the high-level leaders of the sect still ordered the outgoing disciples to return to the sect as soon as possible, just in case.

Gu Qingfeng, one of the three great ancestors of the Ziwei Sect, was also very anxious at the moment, Lu Chen had been to the Dongqi Mountain Range for two months, and he had not returned to the sect until now.

The old man had secretly investigated, and finally found out that it was Deng Ming, the elder of the outer gate, who asked Lu Chen to go to the Dongqi Mountain Range to complete the task of the sect, but now Deng Ming, the only one who knew the inside story, was dead.

The old man sighed, if Lu Chen really had an accident, then how could he explain to his dead senior brother.

Tomorrow will be the big competition of the sect, and Lu Chen still has no news, and the disciples of the Ziwei Sect all feel that Lu Chen is more auspicious.

Early the next morning, this year's Zongmen competition officially kicked off.

As usual, Dabi was held at the Zongmen Square at the summit of Guiyuan Peak.

This square is large enough to accommodate nearly 100,000 people, and in the middle of the square is a test bench thousands of zhang in size.

At this moment, the square was full of people, as a grand event once in the thirtieth year of the Ziwei Sect, except for the disciples who were in retreat, almost all the disciples rushed here, and this time, even the outer disciples were allowed to come to watch the battle.

On the east side of the square is a huge viewing platform, which is used by the high-level monks and elite disciples of the sect and the main peaks to watch the battle.

At this moment, there was a lot of discussion in the square, and the topic was all about which disciple of the main peak of the big competition could win the first place.

Han Yushu and the disciples of Jian Feng also came to the square at this moment, this person is in a good mood now, in his opinion, Lu Chen has not shown up until now, and he has fallen in the Dongqi Mountain Range.

The boys and girls in the mortal realm were also in the crowd under the stage, they were all in low spirits, looking sad, they learned from the outer deacon Luo Haikou that Lu Chen went to the Dongqi Mountains two months ago, but until now, there is still no news, most of them have encountered an accident.

At this time, a young girl with red eyes said, "Today is the day of Dabi, Lu Chen's predecessors will definitely not forget, why hasn't he come back, will something happen?"

When the others heard this, the sadness on their faces was even stronger.

Only the young man named Li Kun clenched his fists and said, "I believe that Lu Chen's predecessors will definitely turn evil into good fortune!"

Half an hour later, I saw more than a dozen long rainbows flying from the sky and landing steadily on the viewing platform, it was none other than the three ancestors of the Ziwei Sect, Min Chengzhou, the sect master of the Ziwei Sect, the peak master of the eight main peaks, and several other elders in the sect.

Everyone in the square saluted respectfully in the direction of the viewing platform, "Meet the Ancestor!"

The three ancestors nodded slightly, and then sat down with the other high-ranking members of the sect.

Gu Qingfeng's face was calm, but he was secretly sighing for Lu Chen in his heart.

At this time, an elder in the sect flew down to the square from the viewing platform, the old man's name was Qi Shuwen, and he presided over the previous sect competitions.

The old man said loudly:

"In this sect competition, in the first round, each main peak will first determine their strongest disciples, and in the second round, the first place will be determined among these eight disciples. ”

"Originally, Lu Chen, an outer disciple, could directly participate in the second round of the competition, but because he went to the Dongqi Mountains two months ago, his life and death were uncertain, so the old man announced that he was ......"

At the moment when the old man was about to announce that Lu Chen would not be able to participate in this sect competition, two Changhong flew from a distance and landed on the high platform, it was Lu Chen and Jiang Yan.

Lu Chen's appearance caused an uproar, and tens of thousands of eyes fell on Lu Chen and Jiang Yan.

While being surprised that Lu Chen could return safely, everyone's eyes

was immediately attracted by Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan looks like she is in her twenties, her face is exquisite, like the most perfect jade in the world, her skin is snow-white, and her beautiful eyes are as bright as stars.

In the eyes of everyone, Jiang Yan is one of the two most beautiful women they have ever seen in their lives, and the other is Xi Wanyi of the Absolute Affection Sect.

Even Han Yushu on the viewing platform was stunned all of a sudden.

Vaguely felt the hot gaze, on weekdays, Jiang Yan stayed with spirit beasts, where had she ever endured such a gaze, and she was so frightened that she hid behind Lu Chen.

At this moment, everyone in the square was talking.

"It's Lu Chen's back!"

"Hey, Lu Chen has broken through to the realm of the Great Perfection of Integration!"

"So what, no matter how powerful he is, he can't be more powerful than those early stage brothers of the Eight Main Peaks!"

"This girl next to Lu Chen is so beautiful!"

"Yes, I've been cultivating for more than a thousand years, and I've never seen such a beautiful woman. ”

"Who is this girl, is she a newly recruited disciple of our Ziwei Sect?"

"I don't know!"

"What is the relationship between this girl and Lu Chen, it looks very close!"

......

In the crowd, Ding Ye and Luo Hai were secretly happy for Lu Chen after seeing him return safely.

Those young girls from the mortal realm cried with joy, Lu Chen was the hero in their minds, and he would not fall so easily.

On the viewing platform, Gu Qingfeng, who was sitting at the front, was completely relieved in his heart, although his face was unwavering.

After the old man found out that Lu Chen's cultivation had broken through, his eyes showed relief, Lu Chen must have had an adventure in the Dongqi Mountains this time.

And Han Yushu, who was sitting in the back, flashed a hideous look in his eyes, but in such a public occasion, this person quickly regained his composure.

Han Yushu secretly clenched his fists, the unwillingness in his heart reached the extreme, he couldn't figure it out anyway, Deng Ming in the early stage of the tribulation went to hunt down Lu Chen, but Deng Ming died, but Lu Chen was fine.

What shocked this person the most was that Lu Chen had actually broken through to the realm of the Great Perfection of Integration.

Originally, Lu Chen would not bring Jiang Yan into the mountain gate so easily.

The disciple who guarded the mountain thought that Jiang Yan was a new disciple of the high-level of the sect, so he didn't interrogate it carefully, so he let the girl in.

At this time, Qi Shuwen, the elder who presided over the sect's big competition, reacted that the young monk standing in front of him was none other than Lu Chen, an outer disciple who had emerged some time ago.

The old man smiled and said, "You are Lu Chen, just come back!"

Lu Chen arched his hand to the old man and said, "Elder, this is Jiang Yan, this time the disciple encountered danger in the Dongqi Mountain Range, thanks to her rescue, he was able to return to the sect safely." ”

The old man's gaze fell on Jiang Yan, with a gentle smile on his face, and asked, "Little girl, which sect are you a disciple of?"

Jiang Yan said obediently, "Qi senior, junior is a casual cultivator. ”

Jiang Yan restrained her breath at the moment, so Qi Shuwen didn't see her true cultivation.

At this time, Lu Chen said, "Elder, the disciple brought Jiang Yan back to implore the sect to take her in. ”

The old man continued to ask, "Little girl, how long have you been cultivating now, and what kind of cultivation are you doing now?"

Jiang Yan thought for a while and said, "The junior has been cultivating for more than two hundred years, and the cultivation should be in the early stage of the tribulation!"

After speaking, Jiang Yan's internal cultivation was running, and gradually a wave of spiritual power spread out from her body.

More than a dozen high-ranking members of the Ziwei Sect sitting on the viewing platform stood up in unison, and their eyes were full of fire when they looked at Jiang Yan.

It only took more than two hundred years to cultivate to the early stage of the Tribulation, and this kind of talent is enough to be compared to Xi Wanyi of the Ruthless Sect.

It is foreseeable that as long as Jiang Yan does not fall unexpectedly, she is destined to grow into a spirit venerable.

You must know that the Ziwei Sect has not had a Spirit Venerable for thousands of years.

If this continues, the Ziwei Sect will inevitably be squeezed out of the five major sects by other sects.

I saw that the figures of Gu Qingfeng and the other three ancestors flashed, and they appeared on the competition table almost at the same time.

Sect Master Min Chengzhou and other high-ranking members of the sect looked at each other, showing helplessness, although they also wanted to accept Jiang Yan as a disciple,

But Gu Qingfeng and the three of them were their elders, so they didn't dare to compete with the three ancestors for disciples no matter what.

The old man in gray was none other than Lu Chen's uncle, Gu Qingfeng, who was a well-known rune master in the spirit world.

The old man in green clothes is called Bai Qiuyang, he is the oldest monk in the Ziwei Sect, he is from the Sword Peak, and he has mastered a very powerful sword technique, and he once relied on this sword technique and a unique sword formation to fight with a certain Spirit Venerable in a hundred moves.

The old woman in white is called Zhao Huixin, from Danfeng, and is the only Dan Dao Grandmaster in Donglingzhou, and this time the six-turn replenishment elixir as a reward for the sect is refined by her.

Bai Qiuyang was the first to speak, "Little girl, the old man can pass on your very powerful sword skills." ”

Zhao Huixin said, "Girl, the old body can give you the pills that often refine and taste good, and you don't have to work so hard to cultivate, you can still successfully break through your cultivation." ”

Gu Qingfeng said, "Little girl, why don't you learn to draw talismans from the old man, it's interesting." ”

After Jiang Yan listened, she turned her head to Lu Chen and said, "Lu Chen, which senior do you say I should worship as a teacher?"

As soon as these words came out, not only these ancestors, but everyone's eyes once again focused on Lu Chen.

Lu Chen really wanted Jiang Yan to worship Fu Feng, but in this way, he would definitely offend the other two ancestors, after thinking about it, Lu Chen still gave up this idea, and he said to Jiang Yan, "Several ancestors have cultivated to the sky, and I can't say, who should you worship as a teacher." ”

Don't look at Jiang Yan is more than two hundred years old, but in fact, she has only been transformed for more than ten years, and for spirit beasts, more than two hundred years old is equivalent to a child, so Jiang Yan still has a little childlike spirit at this moment.

Jiang Yan thought for a while and said, "I'd better worship this mother-in-law as a teacher, and I will have delicious pills as snacks in the future." ”

After speaking, Jiang Yan knelt on the ground respectfully, kowtowed to the old woman and bowed to the master, "Disciple to meet the master!"

When Zhao Hui heard this, her excited body trembled slightly, she felt that she was hundreds of years younger all of a sudden, if she could teach a Spirit Venerable, then she would have no regrets in this life.

Zhao Huixin hurriedly helped Jiang Yan up, with kindness in her eyes, and said, "Good apprentice, get up, this is a meeting gift for you!"

As she spoke, the old woman took out a Soul Fixing Pill and a bracelet, handed them to Jiang Yan, and said to the girl, "Apprentice, taking this Pill can make you calm down when you are cultivating and increase your cultivation speed by several times." In addition, this storage bracelet is convenient for you to store your belongings, and it will be given to you at the same time. ”

"Thank you, Master!" Jiang Yan happily took the pill and bracelet.

Bai Qiuyang and Gu Qingfeng showed regret on their faces, but they immediately returned to normal, as the ancestor of the sect, they must not lose their demeanor in front of the juniors in the sect.

I saw a purple light flash from Bai Qiuyang's hand, and it turned out to be a fifth-order high-grade spirit sword.

The old man handed the spirit sword to Jiang Yan and said, "Little girl, this sword will be given to you." ”

Jiang Yan took the spirit sword and said, "Thank you Uncle Shi for giving me the sword." ”

Everyone in the audience cast envious glances, the fifth-order high-grade spirit sword, even the mid-tribulation cultivators in the sect may not have it.

Gu Qingfeng took out a spirit talisman and handed it to Jiang Yan, saying, "Little girl, this talisman can resist the full force of the monk in the late stage of the tribulation for you, send you to defend yourself!"

Jiang Yan respectfully took the talisman and put it away.

At this time, Jiang Yan said to Zhao Huixin, "Master, the disciple has a request. ”

Zhao Huixin was in a very good mood at the moment, and said, "As long as it is within the scope of the master's ability, I will definitely help you achieve your wish!"

Jiang Yan said, "Thank you, Master, the disciple wants to cultivate with Lu Chen!"

As soon as these words came out, not only Zhao Huixin, but everyone was stunned.

Zhao Huixin looked at Lu Chen, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, could it be that this disciple of her was interested in Lu Chen?

Everyone in the audience looked at Lu Chen with envy.

Lu Chen knew that everyone had misunderstood, but he was embarrassed and didn't know what to do.

Fortunately, Zhao Huixin relieved the siege and said, "Disciple, Lu Chen is about to participate in the sect competition, and this matter will be discussed after the competition?"

Jiang Yan nodded obediently.

Immediately, the three old men and Jiang Yan flew up to the viewing platform, while Lu Chen walked under the stage and watched the battle with the ordinary disciples.
