I Have a Job

 Chapter 231 Jindan made a covenant

  at Xuanwu Jinghai.

  At this moment, it seemed as if even the whistling sea breeze had stopped, and the entire sea area was dead silent. Only a huge fish fin like a windmill blade was left, breaking through the sea surface and cruising rapidly around the two islands. It was the unknown Nascent Soul monster that swallowed the old turtle.

  The strong smell of blood even overwhelmed the fishy and salty taste of the sea water.

  In just half a day, thirty percent of the tens of thousands of foundation-building cultivators died. Even several Jindan warriors were killed on both sides. The number is more than double the number of cultivators that have died in the past hundred years.

  If the fighting continues, no one knows what the outcome will be.

  How could people not be shocked?

  Not afraid?

  Not afraid?

  The island was covered with mud caused by the flood, and everywhere you looked was a mess.

  The hills on the island have been flattened and half of the island has collapsed.

  The tides crashed against the rocks, but at least there was a place to stand. If you step into the water at this time, you will probably become food for aquatic creatures immediately.

  Some monks were supporting their bodies with their weapons, and their wounds were still bleeding even after taking pills. The atmosphere was very depressing, and from time to time there were occasional groans of pain.

  miserable!

  Chen Che, who was in the crowd, also felt a little sad. "Every time an opportunity arises, it will be accompanied by a fight and a major reshuffle of forces. If we are unlucky, one of the forces will even be completely wiped out." This

  has been taught many times in the classroom of Diyuanxing.

  Cold words alone cannot express the brutality of war. Only by experiencing it personally can one understand its cruelty.

  "What a pity."

  Chen Che took a look and found that Thousand Eyes was still there:

  "If Thousand Eyes was dead too, I could put my mind at ease."

  Taking advantage of the short rest time, Chen Che also swallowed a few pills to restore his depleted physical strength and true energy, while his mind couldn't help but wander. If it ends here, then this trip can be considered a success. Not only have several great cultivators been hunted down, but the troublesome Hu Haiqing has also been eliminated.

  Chen Che calculated secretly, while his consciousness swept through the storage ring to count his gains.

  "No spirit stones? Only Hu Haiqing has more than 20,000, how come there are only this few? That's right, I guess they all bought elixirs, talismans and magic tools. Unfortunately, many of their magic tools were burned by the Nine Transformations Spirit Flame Art, so they couldn't accept those."

  Chen Che felt a little regretful.

  The ancients were not deceiving me: killing people and setting fires will earn you a gold belt!

  Magical instruments and talismans are also very valuable. If you put them at an auction, you can get a large amount of spirit stones.

  Including the ones that killed Crocodile Brother Three before, there are a total of seventy-four second-grade magical weapons. Except for six that are of low quality, the rest are all of medium quality second-grade. As for elixirs, there are even more. One of the yellow gourds caught his attention.

  "This gourd? I remember that Hu Haiqing used it to store medicinal wine. It doesn't look like an ordinary magic weapon. My spiritual sense can't even see through it."

  Chen Che muttered to himself.

  but.

  There were too many monks around, so it was not easy for him to take it out and study it carefully.

  "We'll study it slowly when we get back."

  Thousands of people were stationed on the island, and Chen Che withdrew his spiritual sense.

  The Jindan of both sides still did not say anything, and the foundation-building practitioners below did not dare to act rashly, and just watched the two sides in confrontation. Although they rested for a while, everyone's minds did not calm down, but became more nervous.

  "Old rules"

  At this moment, the voice of the ancestor Hunyuan came down like the sound of heaven, "Two plus one equals five, the opportunity, Zhaixingmen and Hunyuan Sect each take fifty percent!"

  !

  For a moment, countless people looked towards the Star-Picking Gate.

  Meng Changtu broke the knife handle so hard that it made a rattling sound. The others were all swallowing their saliva, worried:

  "Will he agree?"

  Before.

  The fight broke out because something went wrong in the division of profits. If the giant sea beast had not suddenly appeared, this battle would have lasted for who knows how long.

  Although.

  The fish fin sank into the sea, but when he lowered his eyes, he could see the huge shadow still lingering at the bottom of the water.

  "Master, will the Star Picking Sect agree?"

  Yu Sihai's hands were shaking and his face was pale. He had been building his foundation for less than ten years, and this was the first time he participated in such a battle of tens of thousands of people. Many cultivators from the Zhaixing Sect attacked him when they saw that his realm was low.

  If it weren't for the few protective magic weapons I got from Jinyun Valley, I would have died long ago.

  "Not sure."

  Chen Che shook his head:

  "If you agree, it means a truce. If you disagree, then we will fight again."

  "If we fight again, will 30% of us be able to leave alive?"

  Lu Qinglian's eyes were full of worry. The only thing she missed in this life was Lu Ping'an.

  Not just here.

  Other major repairs are also making arrangements for their afterlife.

  Their lives and property depend on the thoughts of the founder of Zhaixingmen.

  "Okay!"

  After a long period of agony, Du Zhongyi of the Zhaixing Sect said,

  "According to the rules."

  The great masters of both sides were a little agitated when they heard this, but no one dared to make too much noise.

  Everyone's face had a look of having survived a disaster.

  Chen Che also breathed a sigh of relief.

  "Rules?"

  Looking up, Chen Che heard Du Zhongyi's question. The ancestor of the Zhaixing Sect was no longer as rebellious as he was in the beginning and wanted to make new rules. Obviously, after a fight, he found that he could not defeat the Hunyuan Sect.

  Therefore, I have to accept the condition of 50/50 chance.

  "I won't agree until we have a fight."

  Chen Che muttered to himself and shook his head secretly.

  "Three months later, we will gather here again and work together to break the formation. Once we enter the cave, we are not allowed to kill each other. All opportunities will be distributed in order. My Hunyuan Sect can have priority in choosing the first treasure--"

  The Hunyuan Patriarch spoke slowly.

  Obviously.

  In today's battle, both sides suffered heavy losses. What follows is also related to the distribution of their interests, so naturally it must be treated with extreme seriousness.

  So I need to take a break.

  As he opened his mouth, his spiritual consciousness fell like a waterfall above the void, quickly constructing a golden contract, as if a piece of gold foil was suspended in mid-air. There are a lot of rules and regulations written on it. Once a contract is signed, if it is violated,

  the soul will be destroyed.

  As for whether these Jindan Zhenren have any way to bypass the contract, it is unknown.

  Du Zhongyi was silent for a moment, but still chose to accept it.

  "Can we also enter the land of opportunity?"

  Chen Che took a look at the golden foil of the soul. The rules were naturally those mentioned by Patriarch Hunyuan. However, when he heard about working together to break the formation, his heart moved slightly. He knew in advance from Xiao Chan that the two sides fought for an underwater palace.

  But soon, Chen Che realized that he was overthinking.

  When the last Jindan signed, the gold foil trembled in the air and shattered like broken porcelain, turning into golden light and dissipating into the void.

  Whether it was the Hunyuan Sect or the Zhaixing Sect, neither of them took the foundation-building process into account from the beginning to the end.

  'The contract has been concluded. We will meet here again in three months! "

  As the heavenly sound fell, Du Zhongyi retracted his body, and many real people retracted their bodies and flew back to the flying boat.

  And at the same time.

  The members of Hunyuan Sect also flew back to the spirit boat.

  "..—It's also a good thing."

  Chen Che breathed a sigh of relief.

  According to the customs of this world, even if they were allowed to go, they would definitely not get a share of the treasures, and they might even just be cannon fodder. After all, from beginning to end, these Jindan Zhenren never revealed the name or

  location of the opportunity at all.

  Even if others wanted to look for it, they would find it nowhere to be found.

  "It's finally over."

  As soon as the contract was signed, Meng Changtu ignored the mud and sat directly on the ground.

  "I can go back alive--"

  Yu Sihai almost collapsed to the ground.

  The rest of the great cultivators all had a sense of relaxation as if they had survived a calamity. Only one Jindan Zhenren remained in the void, and his voice came down like a heavenly sound:

  "My Hunyuan Sect has been passed down for 732 years. We rely on all

  of you to be where we are today. Our sect will always remember your kindness today—" The other party had good eloquence, and attributed all the credit for the outcome of today's negotiations to the foundation-building. He praised everyone for their hard work and talked for half a cup of tea.

  Chen Che summarized all the contents for the other party. In a nutshell, it can be summed up in one sentence:

  There will be a handsome reward in the future.

  "..—Today, in the battle of Xuanwu Jinghai, every great cultivator present can take the token of killing the cultivator and go to Hunyuan Sect to claim the reward."

  The other party paused slightly, and a group of great cultivators cheered. For them, this was the real benefit.

  "Disperse!"

  Jindan Zhenren's voice drowned out the cheers, and he added meaningfully:

  "There are more opportunities waiting for you."

  As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd became agitated again, and many great cultivators were excited. Chen Che's heart moved slightly, he heard the implication of these words: many foundation-building forces were destroyed in this battle, it was a good time to swallow up the other side.

  Chen Che glanced over and saw that many repairmen were excited.

  "This is definitely intentional—"

  Chen Che looked at the flying boat rising into the sky and murmured in his heart.

  Sure enough, none of the powerful forces that can dominate a region are easy to deal with. Just these one word caused chaos in the Sixteen States. At the same time, it also made the foundation-building cultivators who had originally complained about this even secretly look forward to it.

  At the same time, a wave of foundation-building forces were also eliminated.

  And then, Hunyuan Sect can look for opportunities with peace of mind.

  "I really want to go to that underwater palace—"

  Chen Che looked at the boundless sea in the distance and just thought about it in his mind. Without wasting any time, he sat on the chick and turned around to catch up with the main group.

  For the foundation-building forces of the Sixteen States, the negotiations ended here.

  But for the two sects, this opportunity has just begun.

  but.

  Those overhaulers who participated in the war also gained something besides spoils of war. After experiencing this battle,

  I have gained a better understanding of the skills that I only had a vague understanding of before. After returning from Hunyuan City, Meng Changtu did not even stay in Jinyun Valley, and hurried back to his tribe to go into seclusion.

  Even Rong Zhongxuan is the same.

  Lu Qinglian took a seven-day leave and stayed in Hunyuan City.

  Chen Che returned to Jinyun Valley and first summoned all the major families and ordered them to make preparations. The Hunyuan Sect had finally created the opportunity, and all forces had to fight for it on their own. Of all the proceeds from the attacks, half was handed over to Jinyun Valley, and the rest was distributed according to work.

  Then, he spent another night with Meng Qingxuan before deciding to go into seclusion.

  It has not been long since he reached the fifth level of foundation building, so he will not make much progress in a short period of time. However, he is always thinking about the yellow gourd he got from Hu Chaoxing.

  "—This gourd?"

  After taking out the gourd and studying it for a while, Chen Che was stunned:

  "I don't understand it!"

Chapter 232 Gourd Space, Sun Hao's Visit

  This yellow gourd is about a palm long, dark yellow in color, small and exquisite, without any carvings. Holding it in your hand, it gives you the illusion of simplicity from complexity.

  The inside of the gourd seems to be a world of its own.

  Starting from the gourd mouth, the spiritual consciousness can extend downwards for hundreds of feet. There were several balls of liquid floating in this space, including medicinal wine and alcohol—

  but this was not the entire space of the gourd, because at the end of the spiritual consciousness, there was also a layer of mist floating. In the swirling mist, there were faintly visible golden chains, each of which was a hundred feet long, appearing and disappearing as the mist swirled.

  It seems to have blocked the deep space.

  Obviously.

  The space inside the gourd is not limited to this -

  "Hu Haiqing uses it to store medicinal wine and treats it as a storage treasure - is it because he doesn't know the purpose of this gourd,

  or is it because of these chains?"

  After thinking about it, Chen Che felt that it might be the latter.

  He had a strong intuition that the space inside the gourd was far more vast and boundless than he had imagined. Because the open space at the gourd mouth alone is equivalent to some third-order space magic tools. After pondering for a while, Chen Che fixed his eyes and drove his spiritual consciousness slowly towards the foggy area.

  There is no danger.

  Too.

  If there was any danger, this thing would have already become a dangerous creature. Not to mention that Hu Haiqing would not even dare to use it to store things, he might not even dare to keep it with him.

  After all, the fame of evil creatures, to some extent, is far greater than that of famous weapons.

  only.

  This thin mist, which seemed like it could be blown away by a breeze, was like an iron wall that blocked his consciousness.

  "Even my spiritual consciousness can't penetrate it. This chain seems to be broken?!"

  The spiritual consciousness reached it, but couldn't penetrate it.

  Suddenly, he glanced and saw that the chains in the mist were covered with gaps, as if left by an external force.

  One side of the lock ring had been sawed off. On the other side, there was a gap like that of a felled tree. The connection between them was even as thin as a hair, but it was still not broken.

  Chen Che was a little stunned, but soon he understood.

  "Perhaps Hu Haiqing also realized that this yellow gourd is not simple, so he planned to explore the space behind the fog, but found that this layer of fog can block spiritual consciousness, so he wanted to break these chains. Or perhaps, the previous owners of the yellow gourd have tried--."

  "It seems that if I add a little more strength, this lock ring will soon break -

  Chen Che thought, his spiritual consciousness condensed, gently wrapped around the broken lock ring, and pulled it suddenly.

  However.

  After this pull, the lock ring did not move at all.

  "Hey!?"

  Chen Che's eyes were full of surprise.

  You know, his spiritual consciousness has reached the first level of the Golden Core Realm. With a full-strength attack, he can even wipe out the souls of some foundation-building cultivators. But in the end, he was unable to tear off this piece that was thinner than a hair?

  "This restriction cannot be set by an ordinary being. Could it be the Nascent Soul?"

  Although it was strange, Chen Che did not stop his actions. Changing his previous rough approach, his consciousness was like a saw, cutting the connection of the lock ring bit by bit with meticulous precision.

  He moved slowly, keeping an eye on the movements deep in the fog. No one knows what is behind the fog. It is possible that this gourd is a storage device of some powerful being, and these seals are locks left by the other party, which contains all the other party's life's gains.

  It is also possible that this is a sealed magic weapon that imprisoned an ancient ferocious beast, or it may be some peerless evil god. No one can say for sure.

  but.

  Chen Che had already made a plan to retract his spiritual consciousness and escape as soon as possible.

  "Bang!"

  A whole day later.

  The lock ring could not bear the weight and broke on the spot.

  Boom!

  Suddenly, a huge roar sounded in the entire gourd space. Then one saw that the endless rows of giant sky-supporting chains, like exploding porcelain, turned into golden light and dissipated into the void.

  At the same time, the thin layer of mist receded like the tide.

  However, what surprised Chen Che was that there was nothing behind the fog, only a huge space.

  This space is 20,000 feet in radius, even larger than the range covered by his spiritual sense.

  and.

  The end of the spiritual consciousness is still covered by a fog. Amid the rolling fog, one can see a series of sky-high chains that look like giant dragons swimming around.

  Those huge locks are even bigger than the previous one. "There is actually another layer of sealing. What kind of treasure is this gourd?

  Chen Che couldn't help but murmured, his heart was in turmoil.

  A storage ring of a hundred square meters is already a second-level item. A thousand

  square meters of space is a third-level item. A space of ten thousand feet is at least a fourth-level item, and that is a treasure that only a Yuanying Zhenjun can possess. If the rarity of space magic tools is taken into account, even a Yuanying Zhenjun may not be able to own this thing,

  not to mention that the two ten thousand feet of space only occupies a part of the gourd.

  "Is it still fifth-level or sixth-level?"

  Thinking of this, Chen Che couldn't help but be shocked.

  If it really is a fifth-tier magical weapon, its value is even far greater than the underwater palace that the two major sects are fighting for!

  As for the sixth level, he didn't even dare to think about it.

  That was the "Heavenly Map" owned by one of the ancestors who founded the immortal sect in the entire Diyuan Star. This item even imprisoned the evil cultivator for seven days during the disaster of the sky falling!

  "It seems that this yellow gourd has not only been obtained by Hu Haiqing, but has been passed down through at least dozens of owners. Maybe, it has also been obtained by some Qi-chaining monks who are unable to leave a spiritual mark."

  After searching with his spiritual sense, Chen Che found the mark left by Hu Haiqing. In addition to his, there are dozens of marks - after careful identification, these marks are weak and strong, and even many come from Jindan Zhenren.

  Even these traces are like the search history, photos, text messages, etc. left by a mobile phone used by someone else.

  Of course you can just ignore it.

  However, conflicts may occasionally arise during use.

  As for erasing the mark, it is equivalent to formatting a second-hand mobile phone. It is easier said than done. It took Chen Che one day to cut off the connection of the thin hair, and it took him three days to erase the marks.

  "I can finally start the ritual!"

  Thanks to his previous experience in refining the sword pill, he was no longer as clueless as he was in the beginning. Chen Che couldn't wait to bite his finger and squeeze the blood onto the gourd.

  No response.

  Just as Chen Che was about to squeeze out the second drop of blood, he saw the gourd tremble quietly, and without the help of any force,

  it actually floated in the air, as if it was born to float in the air. Before he could react, a suction force suddenly burst out.

  Huh~

  It was like a hemorrhage, a fountain of blood gushed out directly from the fingertips and fell into the yellow gourd like a young swallow returning to its nest.

  Dizziness and tinnitus.

  In an instant, Chen Che felt as if he had lost a lot of blood.

  But at the same time, a feeling of blood connection also arose spontaneously.

  "Has the ritual been successful already?"

  Regardless of his weak body, Chen Che immediately held the gourd in his hands.

  From then on, this yellow gourd belonged to him. No matter how far apart we are, we can still sense it and won't lose it. If one's cultivation reaches a very high level in the future, he could even summon an object millions of miles away with a wave of his hand.

  "This is actually a magic weapon?"

  You must know.

  Magical weapons are forged after birth. And magic weapons are innate.

  Arms like sword balls, pure swords, black dragon chains, etc. Once formed, it cannot grow again unless it is reforged.

  But magic weapons are different. They can grow step by step as the cultivator's strength increases or as he is nourished by his true essence.

  "The trip to Xuanwu Jinghai is really a complete regret-

  although. It's

  a bit regrettable that Jindan Zhenren didn't take them, a group of foundation-building people, to explore the underwater palace, but this gourd alone

  may not be comparable to a hundred palaces combined.

  Even if this thing is not as good as the Mitiantu at present, but as his realm improves, the space inside will become larger and larger. It

  may even surpass the Mitiantu one day.

  "However-since it is a magic weapon, does that mean that one of its owners, or all its previous owners, continuously sacrificed and refined it to this level? And then died-so it was lost?"

  Chen Che thought to himself.

  However, there were too few clues left on the gourd, and he didn't know how many owners it had, so he simply gave up these meaningless inferences.

  Maybe even Hu Haiqing doesn't know the origin of this gourd.

  Anyway, he has the gourd in his hand, and as his realm improves, one day he will be able to access the secrets contained in it.

  In the next few days, Chen Che kept trying to figure out the purpose of the gourd. In addition to having the simplest storage function, it also has the effect of absorbing other people's magical tools. However, each intake requires the consumption of corresponding true energy.

  "In other words, as long as I have enough true energy, I can forcibly plunder other people's magic weapons?"

  Chen Che's eyes lit up.

  If you suddenly use the gourd during a fight and take away the opponent's magic weapon, it will definitely be a fatal blow.

  Before he could think of how to test this magic weapon, his consciousness suddenly moved, and a mark was rapidly approaching the Jinyun Valley.

  "This mark? Is it Sun Hao?"

  Chen Che was stunned. Up to now, he had only left a soul mark on Sun Hao's body. But this person was extremely cunning.

  He had not appeared since the exchange meeting, so he had no way to take action against him.

  I didn't expect that the other party would take the initiative to set foot in Jinyun Valley.

  "Valley Master..."

  Chen Che stood up and came out of retreat.

  Chen Che happened to meet Hu Yao who came to report the news. He nodded:

  "I already know."

  Then he stepped into the meeting room, only to see Sun Hao leaning against a giant dragon-like beast, with his hands behind his back, looking around the hall. When he saw Chen Che coming, he grinned:

  "Master Chen, long time no see."

  "Today, I'm ordered by the Thousand-Eyed Immortal to ask you to go to Hunzhou. Remember to bring the sacrificial furnace."

  Hunzhou?

  Chen Che's eyes were focused.

Chapter 233 Entering Hunzhou and Knowing the Statue of God

  Hunzhou is located on the edge of the Sixteen States and is a low-lying area with spiritual energy.

  [Remember the domain name of this site, Taiwan Novel Network → 𝖙𝖜𝖐𝖆𝖓.𝖈𝖔𝖒]

  Therefore, few cultivators set foot in that area.

  Chen Che didn't expect that the cave of Thousand-Eyed Immortal was actually located there. But on second thought, it's normal. The lack of spiritual energy means that mortals are unable to practice and are ignorant and foolish, so it is easier to gather faith.

  Under the leadership of Sun Hao, Chen Che came all the way to Kyoto.

  What caught his eye was a huge statue a hundred feet high.

  "The statue has been found? No, that's not right - the stone statue is still new and hasn't gathered much power of faith. Could it be that the statue was just carved and put up not long ago?"

  Chen Che saw the clue with his spiritual sense:

  "It turns out that the statue is located here. Because it is provided for mortals to worship, it is not defended at all. No wonder a few people who have established their foundation were able to abduct it. Yes, Thousand Eyes True Man was two days late, probably to track down the whereabouts of the statue."

  After thinking about it, he immediately guessed the cause and effect. Chen Che was relieved a little, but he was still worried.

  Where are the group of people who stole the image now?

  Dead or alive? Also, where is the statue hidden?

  "We're here."

  Sun Hao turned around and reminded, his gaze pausing slightly on the little chick.

  "The evil man has not yet given up!"

  Noticing the other party's extremely obscure gaze, Chen Che remained calm. If the other party had not been mixed up with the Thousand-Eyed Immortal, he would never let him leave Jinyun Valley alive.

  He collected his thoughts and glanced ahead curiously.

  The cave of Thousand-Eyed Immortal was located in the Great Morning Imperial Mausoleum. From a distance, it looked like a temple, but when he got closer, it looked more like a mausoleum. On both sides of the entrance there are two tomb guardian beasts that look like tigers but are not tigers and have domineering shapes. A quick glance with spiritual consciousness revealed that it was not a puppet, but just a statue.

  Moreover, it also gathered some power of faith.

  The temple was empty, dim and with almost no decorations.

  However, the most shocking thing is a two-meter-high statue at the top of the temple.

  The statue has kind eyes, a thousand eyes and a thousand hands, and is dressed in a white robe. Although it looks extremely celestial at first glance, it gives people a creepy illusion. Standing under the statue, it feels like being stared at by a thousand eyes.

  "This is also a fourth-rank statue. Did he place the statue here because he was afraid of being stolen?"

  Chen Che's heart moved slightly.

  At this time, the Thousand-Eyed Immortal was sitting under the statue. He was sitting on a cushion with his five hearts facing the sky, and in front of him was a black and ancient pottery jar. Wisps of black mist were pouring out of the pottery jar, penetrating through the mask, and flowing into the eyes, ears, mouth and nose.

  "Master, Valley Master Chen is here."

  Sun Hao bowed and was quite respectful in his words.

  "Yeah."

  The black fog broke off, and fire appeared in the eyes behind the mask. The Thousand-Eyed Immortal nodded slightly:

  "You go down."

  Sun Hao bowed and retreated.

  During the spiritual sense investigation, he could still feel that when the other party's eyes passed over the little chick on his shoulder, he paused slightly and said, "The genius beastmaster, Sun Hao, is as famous as you. I heard that you were once members of a small association. You were hunted down because of the Red Dragon True Man's cave, and I saw that he was a talented person, so I recruited him to serve me. In the future, you two should get closer to each other."

  The Thousand Eyes True Man exhaled a black gas, and a face was vaguely visible in the black gas. It was obvious that what he had just absorbed was a soul, not ordinary black fog.

  So that's how it is, Chen Che suddenly realized.

  The incident of the Red Dragon Cave caused a huge stir, and many people believed that Sun Hao had obtained the treasure. There were quite a few robber cultivators and independent cultivators chasing after him, but he didn't expect that the other party had surrendered to the Thousand-Eyed Immortal.

  "I asked you to come here to make pills for me—"

  Qianyan lowered his head and looked over: "Although Hunyuan Sect has a third-level alchemist, it is not my turn yet."

  Chen Che nodded.

  Even family members have closeness and distance among them, let alone a sect? Qianyan Zhenren was only offering sacrifices, so the alchemist would naturally use his own family first:

  "What kind of elixir does Zhenren need you to refine?"

  "Don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you———"

  Qianyan stood up.

  Chen Che raised his eyes and discovered that there was a crack on his mask.

  Obviously, that was the result of the battle in Xuanwu Jinghai.

  Seeing him go out, Chen Che followed.

  The temple is in a special location and its surroundings are very quiet and elegant. No mortals have ever set foot there, but there are dark shadows in cloaks floating by. At a glance, these black shadows were all surrounded by evil aura. They did not look like cultivators, but more like the Thousand-Eyed Immortal in terms of aura.

  Shinto monk!

  Chen Che understood.

  "They are the royal family of the Great Morning Empire. They chose to become gods because of their short lifespan. One day, when your lifespan is about to end, I can help you live a second life."

  Qianyan looked at the curious Master Chen.

  "Thank you, sir."

  Chen Che's mouth twitched slightly.

  Forget about converting to Shintoism, he doesn't want to live a life like a half-human, half-ghost.

  "Hehe."

  Thousand-Eyed Immortal chuckled, as if he had guessed what Chen Che was thinking, and said casually:

  "When I was alive, I also thought that I could break the cycle of reincarnation and live forever. But it turned out that even if I became a cultivator, I still couldn't escape the simplest constraints of birth, old age, sickness and death. "

  Chen Che didn't know how to respond to this, so he simply shut up.

  It is best not to try to guess the thoughts of a thousand-year-old monster, especially a Shinto monk, who can change his attitude very quickly.

  "This is your worship house. When you come again in the future, you can come here directly with my token."

  Stepping into a side hall, Thousand Eyes Immortal said casually with his hands behind his back:

  "This is where you will make pills in the future."

  "I have to stay here in the future?"

  Chen Che pondered the meaning behind the other party's words. Could it be that the other party wanted to put him under house arrest here?

  "I am not like Master Wanbao, who would cut off the arms of others just because they refused his recruitment. This place is just one of your future places to stay. Whether you are willing to stay in Jinyun Valley or stay with me,

  I will not interfere."

  Master Qianyan glanced at Chen Che. Imprisoning people is certainly a way, but how can others be loyal and dedicated to him in that way?

  As long as you give the other party enough benefits, someone will naturally work hard for you.

  "If you don't confine me, I should thank you?"

  Chen Che breathed a sigh of relief.

  However, the other party's mention of cutting off his arms reminded him of Jia Chaoyuan.

  Master Duobao, he secretly memorized this name.

  The worship palace is not small, and it has everything, including a quiet room, an alchemy room, etc.

  The only drawback is the lack of spiritual energy. Even if spirit gathering arrays are set up all around, the spiritual energy is still not as good as that of Jinyun Valley.

  "Take a look at the recipe."

  Finally, he stopped in the alchemy room. Thousand-Eyed Immortal raised his hand and the recipe floated out.

  "I have never refined the third level, so the success rate should not be high."

  Chen Che only told half the truth.

  After all, he is only a freshman, and the current courses in Zhurong Taoist Academy are still at the middle level of the second grade. Even if his progress is slightly faster, he has only reached the upper level.

  However, since the foundation is good enough, refining third-level pills should not be as difficult as imagined.

  "No matter what, it must be refined within three months!"

  Thousand-Eyed Immortal glanced at Chen Che, whose heart skipped a beat. He continued,

  "I will do everything I can to help you."

  Then, he waved his hand,

  "With my token, you will be above ten thousand people in Hunzhou and can command all the personnel. The materials will be delivered later."

  "Yes."

  Chen Che nodded.

  There is a high probability that the other party will go to Xuanwu Jinghai in three months. Although the two sects have joined forces, no one knows whether a dispute will arise, so third-level elixirs are needed at this time.

  "Three months?"

  Chen Che pursed his lips.

  "The aura of that Xuanpeng is getting stronger and stronger. I estimate that it has reached the fifth level of foundation building—"

  After leaving the temple, Sun Hao looked back.

  A fourth-level monster!

  He heard that in the battle in Hunyuan City, Jingfeng knocked Hu Haiqing to the ground after just one encounter. If he reaches the golden elixir stage and develops supernatural powers, his strength will probably double.

  "Don't worry. We will get it sooner or later. You have a Jindan Zhenren to assist you in your practice. It's impossible for you to be inferior to him."

  The remnant soul of the red dragon transmitted the message from the jade pendant.

  The beast egg was hidden in an ancient mortal house and sealed in a safe box. He asked himself that even if an outsider got it, he would not be able to open it,

  so he still couldn't figure out how Chen Che hatched Xuan Peng.

  "If I keep raising it any longer, it will become tamed. Even if I succeed, how can it be loyal to me relying on the soul contract?"

  Sun Hao was extremely anxious.

  After practicing with the remnant soul of the red dragon for so long, he also knew a lot of knowledge about taming beasts. If Xuan Peng is manipulated by force, the first thing he will do when he becomes powerful in the future is to devour his master.

  "In three months at most, Qianyan will have to go to Xuanwu Jinghai. The journey may take three to five months at the shortest, or several decades at the longest. With such a long time, are you still worried that you won't have the opportunity to take action?"

  The remnant soul of the red dragon sneered.

  Sun Hao nodded.

  At this moment, several dark shadows floated over, looking anxious and holding several pieces of broken wooden armor in their hands.

  "What is that?"

  Sun Hao took a look and narrowed his eyes slightly.

  Sure enough, he heard a black shadow floating in front of him:

  "Master Sun, we found a piece of the flying boat. We wonder if it was left by the group of thieves who stole the statue that day."

  "Master Chen!"

  Just after walking around the worship hall, Chen Che heard a commotion, as if a lot of people broke in.

  "This is a Yin coffin. The Immortal asked us to bring it to you for use in refining the elixir."

  Following the sound, I saw a royal family member in a black robe directing monks to transport the wood. Dark gazes soon filled a corner of the alchemy room.

  besides.

  There are also some strange pottery jars, some of which contain the pupils of unknown monsters. He opened one of the jars and saw a pile of crushed powder. When he was about to pick it up to taste what it was, the black-robed royal family reminded him,

  "Master Chen, those are the ashes of the Foundation Establishment Master."

  Chen Che twitched the corner of his mouth and put the cover back on the jar. He immediately lost the intention to check the jars and let the other party fill the room with materials. Then he asked, "Are they all ready?"

  "We are still missing a few main ingredients. I estimate they will be delivered in the next few days."

  The other party was very polite.

  Nodding slightly, Chen Che looked at the materials that had been sent to him.

  As expected of a Jindan Zhenren's savings, he was extremely generous in his spending. The Yin coffin is a spiritual tree that grows in cemeteries. It only grows three feet tall in a hundred years. When burned, it can produce Yin fire, which is used to refine some Yin elixirs to avoid being mixed with too much worldly air.

  The ashes used to build the foundation are used to purify Yin Fire.

  There are also several skull-shaped jars, which are used to store pills.

  At this time.

  The commotion outside the worship hall made him raise his brows:

  "Have you found the flying boat of the thief who stole the statue?"
