Chapter 192: Preparing with the Hidden Dragon Palace

"Yes, I heard that the Three Kingdoms Great Trial, which is only held once every ten years, is about to start in half a year, and the kid really wants to take this opportunity to go to the secret realm to fight hard, and exchange it for one or two Spirit Pills. But because my own cultivation has not reached the eleventh layer, I don't know anything about the specific situation of this matter, so I thought of you. I believe that with your old skills, you must know more about this Qinglong Secret Realm trial. Lin Quan said modestly.

"Yes, this old man of the Blue Dragon Secret Realm is very clear. Because the old man had gone in person back then, and finally succeeded in obtaining a lot of treasures and walked out alive. It's just that the old man entered with the cultivation of the thirteenth layer of condensation qi back then, so the whole process was not dangerous at all. But do you think that with your current cultivation, you will be able to gain anything after entering the secret realm? I'm afraid that you will die after just a day or two of entering. Old Zhou glanced at Lin Quan very disdainfully, and spoke quite politely.

"It turns out that you still have such great deeds in those days! After all, with the qualifications of the little nephew, if you don't work hard to get one or two more Spirit Condensation Pills, it will be difficult to advance to the condensation stage. So even if this secret realm is dangerous, the kid wants to go in and break in. Old Zhou's words shocked Lin Quan's heart, and then he quickly patted the old man's ass in a burst of ecstasy.

He had long been aware of the dangers within the Blue Dragon Secret Realm, and he was deeply disturbed. Otherwise, he wouldn't have waited until this time to come to visit Zhou Lao, and now that he heard that Zhou Lao had personally entered the secret realm, of course he was overjoyed. If I can get this old man's careful explanation, then I will be more confident that I will be able to come out alive.

"Advice, hehe......" Zhou Laogan laughed twice, then stretched out his hand and stroked his snow-white long beard, while looking at Lin Quan repeatedly with a dead man's gaze for a long time, until he stared at Lin Quan in his heart, he sighed and said, "Okay." Although the old man is not optimistic about you at all, but for the sake of your firm heart to the Tao, the old man will no longer say anything to persuade you. However, the old man will only say these words once later, and they will go out of my mouth and into your ears, and they must not be passed on to others. Do you understand?"

"Yes, boy understands!"

Lin Quan suddenly perked up, and hurriedly said yes, and consciously made a secret oath in front of this old man.

Zhou Lao was still very satisfied with Lin Quan's actions, he casually offered a soundproof shield, and then explained unhurriedly. Lin Quan stood aside with his hands down with a respectful look on his face, carefully memorizing every sentence. More than an hour later, Lin Quan said goodbye to Old Zhou and silently returned to the living room in Qingfeng Valley.

Lin Quan put down everything else for the time being, concentrated on recalling all the things that Zhou Lao said, and then recorded some important contents and all the matters he wanted to pay attention to into a jade slip. When all these things were done, he breathed a sigh of relief, and began to silently calculate the arrangements for the next half year in his heart.

Zhou Lao didn't say much this time, but as a person who had personally participated in the trial and finally came out alive and became a successful person with both fame and fortune, his experience still has its merits. In addition, Zhou Lao also briefly told him the origin of the secret realm and some of the situations in the Three Kingdoms Immortal Cultivation Realm in the past hundred years, which gave him a deeper understanding of the Qinglong Secret Realm.

Thousands of years ago, the Three Kingdoms Immortal Cultivation Realm jointly discovered the information that recorded the secret realm of the Blue Dragon and the three-pole special array flag in an ancient monk's cave mansion. With the help of the map, the twelve largest sects in the Three Kingdoms Immortal Cultivation Realm discovered an ancient teleportation array somewhere at the junction of the three kingdoms of Zhou, Wu, and Zheng, and that teleportation array was the only entrance and exit to the secret realm.

It's a pity that at that time, everyone only found three intact array flags, and the most critical one was the main array flag, which was missing, and it was impossible to open this ancient teleportation array at all. Later, the high-level leaders of the Three Kingdoms who did not give up organized all the outstanding array mages and let them painstakingly crack this ancient teleportation array. After more than a hundred years of repeated research and experimentation, they finally succeeded in improving the ancient teleportation array. Every ten years, when the power of the Boundary was at its weakest, he could use the advanced mana of the twelve Condensation Stage Masters to forcibly activate that ancient teleportation array, and send the Qi Condensation Stage disciples under the sect into the secret realm.

Since this method was not set by the master of the secret realm, the maximum number of people entering the secret realm at a time could not exceed a thousand, and the time they stayed in the secret realm was only fifteen days. If you don't come out in time for more than fifteen days, you won't be able to come out again. I don't know what strange prohibitions the ancient monks have in the secret realm, since the Three Kingdoms Immortal Cultivation Realm was able to allow disciples to enter this secret realm, no disciple who has fallen has ever survived ten years and walked out alive the next time he opens the teleportation array.

As for why this secret realm was named "Green Dragon", and which powerful monk opened it up, there are different opinions, and no one can give a single accurate confirmation. However, after more than a thousand years of exploration, only one guess may be the closest to the truth.

Legend has it that this Qinglong Secret Realm was personally opened up by the 'Confucian Zun' who came down from the upper realm, in order to find a destined person as the inheritor, and at the same time, it may have suppressed some demons and monsters. The strongest evidence for this speculation is:

The entire Four Phases Continent is not only the 'Blue Dragon Secret Realm', I heard that there is also a famous 'White Tiger Secret Realm' in the Dongyun Kingdom, and the Northern Three Kingdoms also have the 'Vermilion Bird Secret Realm', these two secret realms are roughly similar to the Qinglong Secret Realm in every aspect, and it can be determined that they are from the same person's handwriting. In addition, tens of thousands of years ago, the Yin Ghost Realm sent a powerful ghost creature whose strength had reached the 'Yuan Void Period' to invade the Four Phases Continent, and was finally suppressed by the Confucian Sect Soul of the Upper Realm himself. And in order to protect the Four-Phase Continent, Confucian Zun did not hesitate to use his four treasures of the study to set up a super array called the "Four-Phase Locked Soul Array". And this 'Four-Phase Locked Soul Array' is composed of the Green Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird and the Xuanwu Four Spirits.

From the day when the Three Kingdoms Immortal Cultivation Realm successfully opened the secret realm, this secret realm has always been firmly controlled by the twelve major sects with the strongest strength in the Three Kingdoms, and the three key array flags are kept by the Three Kingdoms Immortal Cultivation Realm itself. Every ten years, the twelve major sects will be led by a Ning Dan period master ancestor.

Lin Quan also knew the rest for a long time, all the disciples would go all out to search for all kinds of valuable treasures when they entered the secret realm, they could obtain treasures by defeating the guardian demon beasts, or they could sneak attack other trial disciples to snatch them by any means. However, all their gains in the secret realm must be handed over to the sect without missing a piece, and then the steward of the sect will give a reasonable point according to the value of the treasure brought out.

..................

In the next few days, Lin Quan was kept busy. He had to hurry up and get everything he could think of, and it was directly related to his life.

Seven days later, a sudden blue-gray transmission note interrupted Lin Quan's plan, and after a little thought, he immediately put down the unfinished business in his hand and flew out of Qingfeng Valley.

Purple Void Gate, Qianlong Mountain.

This is a forbidden place in the Purple Void Gate, and Lin Quan is now standing quietly in the middle of this "Hidden Dragon Mountain" and waiting patiently. At the end of this huge artificial platform is a blue-gray palace. This hall is the destination of Lin Quan's trip - "Qianlong Palace".

He had just sent a note inside, but there had been no response. As a last resort, he could only wait patiently.

The blue-gray transmission note with dragon patterns that Lin Quan received three days ago was the notice issued by the "Hidden Dragon Palace". The content of the notice was to inform Lin Quan that the cultivation retreat room he had booked more than five months ago was already usable, and if he didn't want to give up this hard-won opportunity, he had to enter the retreat room in the "Hidden Dragon Palace" to practice within three days from the date of receiving the transmission note, otherwise it would expire.

There are too many disciples who want to come to the Hidden Dragon Hall to practice, and the relatively few quiet rooms in the Hidden Dragon Hall have always been in short supply. Therefore, all disciples who want to enter the Hidden Dragon Hall to practice must make a reservation a few months in advance, and once the Silent Room is vacated, the law enforcement monks of the Hidden Dragon Hall will send transmission notes to all the disciples who have booked the Silent Room in turn in order of first come, first served.

Speaking of this famous Hidden Dragon Hall in the Purple Void Gate, we have to mention the benefits that the good spiritual veins give to the monks when they break through the bottleneck.

There is a spiritual vein that is not too small at the foot of this Qianlong Mountain, and the quality of this spiritual vein is still quite good, between the lower grade and the middle grade. Although this quality of spiritual veins is not of great use to cultivators who have cultivated at the condensation stage or above, it is more valuable than any elixir for those disciples in the condensation stage who are eager to break through the bottleneck.

Therefore, the disciples of the entire Purple Void Sect's Qi Condensation Period would try their best to come here to rent a quiet room whenever they encountered a bottleneck that was difficult to break through or were about to impact the condensation stage. Even if you have to wait in line for a long time, you are willing. As for the effect, it is also extremely obvious, as long as the low-level disciples who have no chance to enjoy this quality spiritual vein at all are not qualified or unlucky, then at least half of the disciples can succeed.

After waiting for about a cup of hot tea, Lin Quan only felt a faint fluctuation of spiritual power suddenly flash in the shield in front of him, and then saw two middle-aged men dressed in purple appear at the door of the main hall out of thin air.

"Boy, is that the transmission note you sent just now?" one of the white-faced short-bearded monks glanced at Lin Quan casually and asked a little angrily.
