Chapter 523: The Western Expedition
Chen Lifeng recalled for a moment and said, "I got this jade slip seven years ago, and I remember that I got it when I participated in the urgent mission of 'Rushing to Aid the Qingyun Sect' issued by the sect. www.biquge.info At that time, the Qingyun Sect was besieged by the Demon Sect, and the situation was critical, and many sects sent elder disciples to rescue, but we went too late, and in the end, the Qingyun Sect was still destroyed by the Corpse Soul Sect, the sect master and the main elders were killed, and the wealth in the sect was also washed away by the Demon Cultivator. When we arrived, the main force of the Demon Sect had already retreated, but there were still remnants of the Demon Cultivator entrenched near the Qingyun Sect. And this jade slip was found by me from a demon cultivator at that time, and it must be the relic of the Qingyun Sect. ”
Zhan Chen suddenly realized and nodded, finally understanding why Chen Lifeng sold the jade slip to himself so easily, just because it was also a windfall.
This is Chen Lifeng sighed again: "My adventure is nothing, many people who are with me have obtained great adventures, like the elite disciples born in this big competition, three of them are on the expedition with me, one of them is still my friend, and their strength was weaker than me at that time, but they completely left me behind in just a few years, I am really unwilling!"
"Indeed, war is also a good way to make a quick fortune, and besides, the opponent is a demon cultivator, so you don't have to keep your hands. Maybe I should try my luck in the west, and maybe I'll win the lottery too. Zhan Chen suddenly thought.
After separating from Chen Lifeng, he returned to Bijian Peak, and couldn't wait to take out the "Retreat" for research, and after reading the jade slip in detail, Zhan Chen fell into deep thought, the cultivation conditions of this Taoist technique are very strict, and the mystery of the earth needs to reach seventy percent of the human level, I am afraid that only immortals who specialize in cultivating the mystery of the earth can quickly master it, and it is even more difficult to practice it if he is a halfway monk like himself.
"No matter what, I'm going to give it a try!" Zhan Chen's eyes flashed with determination, and he began to try to comprehend the meaning of the earth.
Spring went to winter, and three years passed in the blink of an eye, but Zhan Chen's comprehension progressed slowly, and the mysteries of the earth he comprehended had only reached three percent of the human level, and such a low value was really beyond his expectations, so that he began to wonder if his comprehension ability had weakened.
However, the fact is that his comprehension ability has been improving, but now his cultivation realm is not enough, and he is destined to be unable to grasp too many mysteries.
The progress of the mystery of the earth was slow, making Zhan Chen's days like a year, but at this moment, he received a summons from Mei Qing, so he rushed to Ningcui Palace and found that Li Qiong, Zhuang Xiaodie and others were there.
Mei Qing sat at the top, and when she saw that everyone was here, she said: "I called everyone here today because I have something to say, I will set off with the sect's Western Expeditionary Army in the near future to stop the Corpse Soul Sect in the Taicang Mountain Range. ”
As soon as Zhuang Xiaodie heard that he was going to stop the demon cultivator, he was eager to try and asked, "Teacher, how is the recent war in the west?"
Mei Qing frowned and replied: "The situation is not optimistic, our righteous path alliance has suffered a lot of casualties recently, although the number of corpse soul sects is not as large as ours, but they attacked everywhere, plundered a large number of people, carried out inhumane corpse and corpse demon refining, and fought with these evil things, we killed and injured a lot of people, so the righteous path alliance decided to gather the strength of each sect to wipe out the demon sect!"
Zhuang Xiaodie was filled with righteous indignation when she heard this, and shouted: "Demon cultivation is really hateful, teacher, I want to go with you!"
Mei Qing was stunned for a moment and said, "Xiaodie, haven't you already participated in the Western Expedition twice, and it's no problem for you to participate all the time?" You have just been promoted to an elite disciple and the daughter of the sect master, so you don't need to risk your life at all. ”
Zhuang Xiaodie shook her head and said, "Master, I'm fine, it is precisely because I participated in two missions to conquer the Corpse Soul Sect that I was able to grow up quickly, and every time I come to the town that has been washed by the Corpse Soul Sect, looking at those people who have died, I feel that the burden on my body is very heavy, so master, please let me participate again!"
Mei Qing listened to her words and shook her head helplessly, Zhuang Xiaodie is a stubborn master, once she decides, she will definitely do it.
At this time, Li Qiong also said on the side: "Master, I also want to go with you, this big competition lost to Senior Brother Zhan, which makes me feel that I need to hone my training." ”
Mei Qing nodded and said, "Well, Li Qiong, you have been staying in the Great Perfection Realm for a long time, if you can use this opportunity to find an opportunity to break through the Immortal Yuan Realm, it will naturally be great." ”
Zhan Chen looked at the two of them, thinking that his progress in comprehending the mystery of the earth was slow, why not participate in this western expedition like Chen Lifeng, on the one hand, he could consolidate his cultivation, and on the other hand, if he was lucky, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing to get the adventure?
Mei Qing was stunned and said, "Do you all want to go?"
Chen Junlan and Li Junchen shook their heads, and Chen Junlan stood up and said, "Teacher, I won't go, because I feel that my bottleneck has been loosened, maybe this retreat will be able to break through the realm of the Great Perfection of the Yuan." ”
Li Junchen also said: "I also want to retreat and try to break through the high level of Peep Yuan!"
"Okay, Zhan Chen, Li Qiong and Zhuang Xiaodie, I will report your application, and you will wait quietly in your own home, maybe in another ten days and half a month, the notice will come down!"
"Yes!" Zhan Chen and the other three replied in unison.
After the disbandment, everyone went back to rest and prepare, not wanting to come down after only a week of the order to assemble, Zhan Chen seemed to smell something unusual from this hasty order.
Early the next morning, he rushed to the meeting place, the foothills of the Tianjian Mountain, and found that there were already many people waiting, and the number of people was still increasing. At this time, he heard Li Qiong's voice behind him: "Zhan Chen, we are here!" He turned around and looked, only to see Li Qiong and Zhuang Xiaodie, a pair of pretty people, standing behind him, so he also smiled and stepped forward to say hello: "Senior Sister Li, Senior Sister Zhuang, you are here!"
"It's early, I'm waiting for you. Li Qiong smiled.
"Senior Brother Zhan - good!" Zhuang Xiaodie also greeted with a smile, but Zhan Chen noticed that her eyes were still a little flickering when she looked at herself, as if she didn't dare to look directly at herself, her heartbeat began to speed up inexplicably, and she felt a little embarrassed, thinking: "Damn! Why do I still have strange feelings for Senior Sister Zhuang, is it not a lingering feeling?"
"There are a lot of people here this time!" Zhuang Xiaodie said suddenly, as if she wanted to hide her uneasiness.
Zhan Chen was also very cooperative, and when he got off the donkey down the slope, he asked, "Senior Sister Zhuang, is it too much?"
"It's quite a lot, I have participated in two expeditions to the west, each time the number of people is three hundred, and the three elders lead the team, but this time there are now more than three hundred people gathered here, and I am afraid that there will be more people who will come later. ”
Li Qiong's expression also became serious, and said, "Xiaodie, listening to what you said, then the challenge facing our Righteous Dao Sect this time is probably very severe, otherwise how could the sect send more people?"
Their suspicions were immediately confirmed. In a short time, there were a full five hundred people concentrated at the assembly point! Most of them had a high-level cultivation of the Yuan Yuan and above, and there was even no shortage of elite disciples like Zhuang Xiaodie.
At this moment, the elders who led the team also arrived, there were eight of them, four of them were new elders, and they were also the elite disciples of the previous session, they were all veteran warriors who were fighting on the front line of the Corpse Soul Sect and had rich experience in fighting demons. Zhan Chen also saw Mei Qing in it, she was dressed in a snow-white palace dress, looking slim and elegant, which was particularly eye-catching.
At this time, a powerful old man stood up and climbed to a high place. Zhan Chen immediately recognized that he was Elder Xu Chang in the sect, and he cultivated the mysteries of gold like himself, and he had the strong cultivation of the high level of Xianyuan, and he was also the highest cultivation among the elders in this trip.
Let's say that Xu Chang stood on the high platform and swept all the people below, and said: "Everyone, I am Xu Chang, and I am also the general person in charge of this western expedition. As you may have noticed, the gathering time for this expedition to the west is earlier than before, and the number of people gathered has increased compared to the previous one, and there are even eight of us elders who participated. I think you must have some guesses in your hearts, if the war in the west is tight, you guessed right, just a month ago, the Corpse Soul Sect occupied Changxin City, which was under the jurisdiction of our ally Hua Yingzong, and carried out a massacre, killing millions of people, this incident shocked all the sects in our Righteous Path Alliance. ”
"What Corpse Soul Sect has already hit Huaying Sect, isn't that close to our sect?"
Listening to Xu Chang's deep voice again: "Yes, everyone must know that Huaying Sect is not far from the jurisdiction of our Spirit Crane Sect. The actions of the Corpse Soul Sect are very strange, and all indications show that they do not seem to be in a hurry to expand their territory, but blindly advance to the east and eliminate the sects along the route, according to the direction of their aggression, our Spirit Crane Sect will become their target sooner or later. Therefore, this time, the Jade Xiao Hall of our Righteous Path Alliance personally stepped forward to concentrate the strength of all sects to prepare to deal a head-on blow to the arrogant Earth Corpse Soul Sect, and we are honored to participate in this glorious and great mission. ”
"Yuxiao Palace?" Zhan Chen seemed to have figured out something, the reason why the Jade Xiao Hall would take the initiative to jump out this time was also because the sword blade of the Corpse Soul Sect was directly aimed at the core area of their domination, the Conch Corner, and the location of the Spirit Crane Sect was unfortunately the gateway to the Conch Corner in the Cangheng Mountain Range, if the Spirit Crane Sect was destroyed, the Corpse Soul Sect would be able to directly threaten the core area of the Jade Xiao Palace's rule.
Listening to Xu Chang continue to say: "So everyone must be aware of the arduousness of this mission, we must go all out to smash the conspiracy of the Corpse Demon Sect, and give them a heavy blow, and even completely annihilate them, do you have confidence?!"
"Yes!" shouted everyone.
"Very good, then let's go!" Xu Chang finally gave the order to attack.
A moment later, everyone released their spirit cranes, and Zhan Chen also released the night and rode it into the sky, flying towards the far west with the large army, and disappeared into the sky a moment later.
On this day, the sky was overcast, which seemed to indicate that a storm was coming!
