Gu Chen and Miao Fugui each asked some questions, and the owner of Penglai Island knew everything, just like an amiable and respectable elder, and did not have any reservations just because the two were not his disciples.

After some exchange, Gu Chenmao suddenly opened, and felt that the ideas in his head were much clearer.

In the next few days, Gu Chen often visited the Lord of Penglai Island and asked him about the incurable diseases in his cultivation.

The Lord of Penglai Island carefully imparted knowledge and treated Gu Chen very well, only occasionally asking him about the cultivation of the "Immortal Ascension Formula".

After Gu Chen went back, he also tried to cultivate, but he always felt a little strange and did not study it in depth.

After all, in his opinion, even if the "Immortal Ascension Technique" is a very powerful exercise, it is definitely not as good as the "Tianchen Vientiane Technique" that he has cultivated.

His current energy should be on a breakthrough in cultivation, not on an exercise that does not know the depths.

Gu Chen's mentality didn't seem to him to be anything, but after the owner of Penglai Island asked him about his progress a few times, he didn't answer what he asked, and gradually his attitude changed.

Gu Chen's mind was sharp, and he obviously felt that the respectable elder was becoming more and more impatient with him.

At first, he thought that he had done something wrong, and he didn't think about the exercises, after all, the owner of Penglai Island said that he would not force them to cultivate the "Immortal Ascension Technique".

But after staying in Penglai Mountain for seven days, when he saw Miao Fugui again, he couldn't help but be vigilant.

Miao Fugui has been cultivating wholeheartedly since he got the "Immortal Ascension Technique", and when Gu Chen saw him again, he found that his temperament had faintly changed.

It turned out that he was a very honest person, but when they met again, his words and deeds became a little frivolous.

"Miao Daoyou, what's wrong with you?"

Eyes are the window of a person's soul, Gu Chen's eyes were clear when he first saw Miao Fugui, but now there is an unusual fanaticism in his eyes, which makes people feel uneasy.

"What's the matter with me? What is Brother Gu talking about?"

Facing Gu Chen's concern, Miao Fugui frowned.

"Brother Guan Miao's temperament seems to be different from before. Gu Chen pondered.

"Oh, it must be because I've made some progress in my cultivation. ”

Miao Fugui chuckled when he heard this, with a confident face. "It's not me saying, Brother Gu, you should also work hard, otherwise you will regret being kicked out of Penglai Mountain one day. ”

Gu Chen was surprised when he heard this, "Why did Brother Miao say this?"

Miao Fugui's face suddenly became a little mysterious, and he whispered.

"Don't look at the outside world and say that the island owner and his old man cherish and treat talents preferentially, but look at how many people live in Penglai Pavilion?"

Gu Chen thought about it carefully, there were only a dozen people he had met in the pavilion these days.

"The owner of the island has a long life, and the Haitian feast has been held many times, and it is said that he will invite some people he thinks are talented to enter Penglai Pavilion every time. ”

"But there are so few people here now, so it can be seen that most of them have been driven away. Do you really think that the owner of the island is just cherishing talents, and has no other purpose?"

Gu Chen's heart froze, "Brother Miao means ......"

"In my opinion, the owner of the island should be looking for a suitable person to inherit his mantle. Then "Ascending to Immortals" is a test, if anyone succeeds in learning, he can be recognized. ”

"I have no sect and no faction, and I have finally won the favor of the island owner, and I must work hard to inherit his mantle. That's all I have to say, Brother Gu, do it yourself. ”

Miao Fugui left after speaking, but Gu Chen fell into deep thought because of his words.

If things are really as Miao Fugui said, then it is understandable that the owner of Penglai Island has become cold towards him, after all, he has not cultivated the "Immortal Ascension Technique" with his heart.

It's just that Gu Chen feels that things are not so simple, if the owner of Penglai Island wants to find a suitable heir, he can directly explain that is, why hide it?

Gu Chen's brows furrowed, he thought about it for a while, and made a decision in his heart.

If the owner of Penglai Island wants to receive heirs, then he is not the right person.

He was not interested in the "Immortal Ascension Technique", and the problem of broken bones in his body had not yet been solved, so it was impossible to stay here for a long time.

Since the island owner asked them for such courtesy, Gu Chen was embarrassed to ask him for advice again, and felt that it was time to leave Penglai Mountain.

People are looking for heirs, and they have no intention of occupying a position, which is really unkind.

So Gu Chen decided to say goodbye to the owner of Penglai Island, and as for his kindness during this period of time, he will find a way to repay it in the future.

didn't think about it, when Gu Chen proposed to leave, the owner of Penglai Island rejected him.

"Little friend doesn't need to worry about anything, even if you stay in my Penglai Pavilion. ”

He still looked like he was smiling, but in fact his tone was non-negotiable.

Gu Chen tried to say something more, but the owner of Penglai Island found an excuse to leave.

In the next few days, Gu Chen felt that everything had changed.

First of all, the Lord of Penglai Island began to avoid him, and only sent people to inquire about his cultivation progress of the "Immortal Ascension Technique", as if he had to cultivate.

Secondly, Gu Chen began to perceive that there was secret surveillance on him, which made him uncomfortable.

At this point, he had already realized that something was wrong, although he was a guest of Penglai Pavilion, it was like he was in prison!

"There's something that has to be investigated. ”

In this case, Gu Chen secretly sent the white ape out to collect information.

The disciples of Penglai Pavilion just stared at him, and they didn't notice that the white ape had left for a day before returning.

"How's it going?"

After the white ape came back, Gu Chen asked for the first time.

"Squeak! squeak!"

The white ape danced and told Gu Chen all the information it had asked.

When Gu Chen heard this, his heart suddenly sank!

A few days ago, Miao Fugui said that there were too few people in Penglai Pavilion, which made Gu Chen pay a little more attention, and sent the white ape out to investigate the matter.

It turned out that the Haitian Feast had been held for so many sessions, and there were indeed many people who were invited to enter Penglai Pavilion.

These people are not disciples of big forces, and they were invited to enter Penglai Pavilion because they won the question, and they are some young loose cultivators with potential who are favored by the island owner.

The disciples of the great forces all left soon after entering the Penglai Pavilion, and some of them are now quite famous on the mainland.

But strangely, none of the young cultivators who have been invited into the house for so many years have been famous, not only are they not famous, but after they entered Penglai Pavilion, few people have seen them.

Many people say that they have been cultivating in Penglai Pavilion, but the real situation is that there are very few people in Penglai!

The characteristics of these missing people are obvious, some of them have cultivation talents, they are all casual cultivators, and they have no sects and no factions!

When Gu Chen learned this, he shuddered.

Thinking back to the kind and kind smile of the owner of Penglai Island, I only feel that there is a strong smell of conspiracy in it.

"No matter what the truth of the matter is, you must leave Penglai Mountain as soon as possible!"

Gu Chen took a deep breath, he wanted to be the master of his own destiny and would never be manipulated by others!
