Chapter 289 When We First Met at Xiyue Mountain Gate, We Missed Chu Ning for the Rest of Our Lives.
Desolate land.
Zenyi looked at the puppet in his hand, and then at the empty earth.
That's really his style.
The passing of people leaves traces, and the passing of geese plucking their hair.
This man never leaves for nothing.
If the soul had not been tempted by his own interests when he was building the tomb, he would not have stepped into the tomb at all.
"Holy Son, does anyone you know come here?"
An old monk saw his holy son's changing expression and couldn't help but ask.
"Um."
Zen nodded, and his words made the two old monks look shocked.
The identity of his own Holy Son is extraordinary. He could be an acquaintance of the Holy Son. Could he be a certain senior?
Zenyi knew that his protector was thinking wrongly, but he did not explain that his trip to Chengshan Domain was related to the secret of his body's cultivation.
"Holy Son, where is this place?"
The two old monks scanned the land. Although their souls were gone, they could feel that a war had happened here.
"This place should be a certain ancient realm of destruction."
Zenyi's words moved the two old men again, but they did not ask any more questions. Regarding the ancient realm, it is a taboo and cannot be touched until a certain level is reached.
"Thank you, Holy Son, for clearing up the confusion."
The two old monks saluted and expressed gratitude, but Chan looked towards the direction Chu Ning came in. But in just a moment, Chan's pupils shrank, and there was a red dot in his pupils.
"Are there any strong men left here?"
Zen closed his eyes, then opened them again and regained his clarity.
…
…
Chu Ning stepped out of the stone door and heard a crisp clicking sound behind him. When he turned back, the stone door suddenly shattered and turned into a pile of rubble piled on the ground.
Looking at the rubble on the ground, Chu Ning sighed inwardly, so when these souls disappear, the world in the secret realm will lose its meaning of existence.
After coming out of the valley, Chu Ning did not go to Liang Chaoji's house again.
For such a grand event as the Domain Son Competition, if my cheap apprentice Ji was still alive and still in Chengshan Domain for half a year, he should know the news, so there are only two places to go to find him.
One is to return to the Ji family, and the other is to go to Xiyue Sect.
Chu Ning went to Ji's house and didn't find that Ji had come back in half a year. Then he went to Xiyue Sect and learned from Yao Xin that there were many people who wanted to see him, but not Ji half a year.
For those monks who wanted to see him, in Yao Xin's words, his deeds gave them courage. When he asked Huang Zhongtai for a letter to enter the church, these monks also wanted to ask him to give them a chance.
Most of these people are alchemists, and what they want is that they can recommend them to the alchemy realm.
In their opinion, they were able to change their destiny in the first place only because they found Huang Zhongtai and entered the school.
They want to imitate themselves and seek a chance to enter the alchemy realm.
“Everyone wants to be like you, and they think you won’t say no to them.”
Yao Xin looked at Chu Ning with a smile. In the hearts of these alchemists, this is how Chu Ning came through, so they would be more willing to give them a chance.
"I don't have time to see them. If you think there are really talented alchemists, you can give them a jade slip."
Chu Ning left two jade slips for Yao Xin.
One is the jade slip for the assessment of the Dan Realm. Just like the jade slip he used back then, it can be seen by the Xinhuo Palace as long as the alchemy is made by crushing it.
He also learned some about the situation at the Xinhuo Palace from his master. Because of his own affairs, the Danta Society had punished several people. Now Senior Sun is the latest person in charge of the Xinhuo Palace.
If you don't look at the monk's face and look at the Buddha's face, as long as it's not too bad, Senior Sun will give it a D grade at worst. This is a bit of a worldly thing, and the Danta Club will not investigate it strictly.
What the Alchemy Pagoda would care about is that it misjudged an outstanding genius alchemist. As for giving a higher rating, one or two foreign monks in the Alchemy Domain would have no impact on the entire Alchemy Domain.
"This jade slip is recommended by Danshan Sect. With this jade slip, you can enter Danshan Sect and directly participate in Danshan Sect's entrance examination."
Chu Ning explained to Yao Xin the use of the second jade slip. It was given to him by his master before he came out. Disciples outside the Danshan Sect will all carry this kind of jade slip with them. If they find any good seedlings, they can be sent there. The sect conducts assessment.
"I thank you on behalf of the alchemist in the mountain area."
Yao Xin put away the two jade slips. Chu Ning gave these jade slips to her, which was also an opportunity for Xiyue Sect to increase its reputation and favor.
No matter who gets these two jade slips in the end, both of them will cherish the love of Xiyue Sect.
"Are you with Junior Sister Tang now?"
Seeing Chu Ning getting ready to leave, Yao Xin asked curiously.
For so many years, no news has come back from Junior Sister Tang.
She was afraid that something would happen between Chu Ning and Junior Sister Tang, although this possibility was very small.
"She is in the East China Sea. There has been a sea storm in the East China Sea recently. Even the powerful ones who transform themselves into gods dare not move around easily."
Chu Ning explained, and Yao Xin was completely relieved.
"I haven't seen Junior Sister Tang for a long time. I thought it would be no regrets if I could see Junior Sister Tang again before I leave."
"There will be a chance."
Chu Ning comforted Yao Xin. Yao Xin still had one or two hundred years to live. The sea storm in the East China Sea was almost over, and Tang Xiaoniu should return to Chengshan.
"In all these years, you haven't thought about finding a Taoist companion?"
"I'm a long time old. I'm looking for a Taoist companion. Don't make such jokes with me."
Chu Ning did not continue this topic. Everyone has their own choice. Maybe for Yao Xin, being a Taoist companion is not what she pursues.
"Take care of yourself."
"you too."
Yao Xin watched Chu Ning leave at the head of Yuefeng Mountain of Xiyue Sect, but Chu Ning's previous question came to mind.
Why haven't you found a Taoist companion after all these years?
Once upon a time, she seemed to have thought about finding a Taoist companion, but every time she met the male cultivators introduced by her senior sisters, Chu Ning would appear in her mind, and she would compare this male cultivator with Chu Ning, and then I just lost my mind.
When we first met at Xiyue Mountain Gate, we missed Chu Ning for the rest of our lives.
The senior sisters in the sect have Chu Ning in their hearts, but why doesn’t she herself?
If it weren't for Chu Ning, she would have been just a foundation-building cultivator, unable to even avenge her family, let alone later step into the Golden Core and become the Nascent Soul now.
Compared to those senior sisters, she is the most emotional.
It's just that she suppressed this feeling deep in her heart.
"Not only me, but also the eldest lady of the Xu family, I'm afraid she is also secretly interested in it, but she is stronger than me. She went to the Central Territory, and there will be a chance to meet Chu Ning in the future."
Yao Xin laughed to herself. She didn't have the courage, so she could only stay in Xiyue Sect and guard the cave where Chu Ning once lived.
…
…
Heavenly fire domain.
Ranked 22nd among the sixty-four lower domains.
A flying boat appeared from the crack in the sky and headed towards a certain palace.
When the flying boat stopped above the palace, everyone below immediately stopped what they were doing and looked at the flying boat. The next moment they saw a handsome young man walking out of the flying boat.
The people below looked at the young man with respectful expressions on their faces. The strong man in the late Nascent Soul stage must be a strong man from the Danshan Sect in the Dan Realm.
"Junior Brother Chu, please come in quickly."
In the main hall, an old man looked at Chu Ning who walked in with a smile and said: "I have been notified by the sect for a long time, and I have been looking forward to the arrival of Junior Brother Chu."
Liu Daohui felt Chu Ning's realm, and there was surprise in his eyes. When he got the notice from the sect, he had inquired about it. Junior Brother Chu was still in the middle stage of Nascent Soul at that time, but now Junior Brother Chu is already in the later stage.
It seems that Junior Brother Chu has made a breakthrough in the late Nascent Soul stage in the past few decades.
Liu Daohui asked for information because he didn't understand why Chu Ning came here to take over for him.
With Junior Brother Chu's alchemy talent, Elder Qi's training and the sect's attention, there is no shortage of resources.
"Congratulations to Junior Brother Chu for breaking through to the late Nascent Soul stage."
Regarding Chu Ning, Liu Daohui didn't dare to put too much pressure on him at all. Although everyone was in the late Yuan Ying stage, there was still a gap between the disciples in the late Yuan Ying stage.
A person like him who went to the lower realm to complete the sect's mission has no backing or background. It is not easy to reach this point, and for Junior Brother Chu, the later stage of Yuanying is nothing. With Chu The sect will definitely find a way to transform the junior brother's alchemy talent into a god.
I came to the Heavenly Fire Realm to earn contribution points, and others just came to gain experience and gain gold.
"Senior Brother Liu, you're welcome. Master told me before coming here that Senior Brother Liu has made many contributions to the sect and is a meritorious official of the sect."
Liu Daohui blushed after listening to Chu Ning's words. If it weren't for the lack of resources, who would be willing to work so hard to contribute points.
The more contribution points someone has, the more powerful the player is.
This is a point recognized by the disciples of the sect, and he is the famous cow horse.
As for Junior Brother Chu saying that his master would mention him, Liu Daohui knew that this was a polite comment from Junior Brother Chu. Who is Junior Brother Chu's master? It was Elder Qi.
Elder Qi is not only a genius in alchemy, but also a genius in cultivation. He has created the shortest breakthrough record in the history of the sect from Yuan Ying to the realm of god transformation.
Let alone mentioning himself, it is not certain whether Elder Qi knows that the sect has a disciple like himself.
"I'm ashamed, but I can't afford Elder Qi to say that."
…
The two complimented each other a few words, and then Liu Daohui introduced the situation to Chu Ning.
The Tianhuo Domain is almost as big as three Chengshan Domains and has many sects, among which there are three strongest sects. Each sect has a god-transforming monk in charge.
These three sects are also related to Danshan Sect. All three sects have disciples who joined Danshan Sect many years ago.
However, for Chu Ning and Liu Daohui, the sect power in the Skyfire Domain has little to do with them. Danshan Sect arranged for disciples to settle in this domain mainly to obtain the Skyfire Mine.
The name of Skyfire Domain comes from Skyfire.
There is a thunder area in the Sky Fire Domain. Every hundred years, these thunders will form Sky Fire. After a hundred years, the flames will extinguish, and those things burned by the Sky Fire will turn into Sky Fire Mines.
Tianhuo Mine is a precious material for alchemy and weapon refining, and is also one of the financial resources of Danshan Sect.
Danshan Sect, as a Central Domain sect, is able to control the Heavenly Fire Domain. Other Central Domain sects will not object because there will be riots in that thunder area.
Back then, these thunders almost destroyed the entire Heavenly Fire Domain, but in the end, the strong men of Danshan Sect took action to suppress them.
The responsibility of Danshan Sect is to guard the Heavenly Fire Domain and not allow the Heavenly Fire to go wild.
The task that falls on Chu Ning is to monitor the situation of Tianhuo and report to the sect immediately if there is any sign that something is wrong.
"Junior brother Chu, that's about it. Some of the more detailed details are recorded in the jade slips for you. Junior brother will understand after reading the jade slips."
Liu Daohui couldn't wait to leave after talking to Chu Ning. The spiritual energy in the Heavenly Fire Realm was only one-tenth of that in the Dan Realm. Now he had to prepare for the transformation into a god, so he couldn't waste any time.
Chu Ning sent Liu Daohui away. As soon as he finished reading the contents of the jade slip, a middle-aged man walked into the hall.
"Palace Master, the Xuandu Sect, the Sun Sword Sect, and the Jinyu Sect have sent us messages. Upon learning of your arrival, we have already prepared a banquet to welcome you."
As for the man calling himself the master of the palace, Chu Ning already knew the answer from the jade slip.
Every disciple of the Danshan Sect who comes to the Tianhuo Territory is the new hall master of the Danshan Palace. The other people in the Danshan Palace do not belong to the Danshan Sect, but are transferred from various sects in the Tianhuo Territory to serve the hall master.
Don't underestimate this service quota. For these quotas, the competition between various factions is extremely fierce, because to a certain extent, he represents the Danshan Sect, a bit like an imperial envoy.
"Turn it down for me. Just say that the Lord of the Palace has just arrived and needs to know the situation."
Chu Ning flatly refused. The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, but did not respond immediately. Instead, he hesitated and said: "Palace Master, in the past, every new palace master would attend the banquet. The sincerity of the three sects is very high."
Qian Cheng said this because he was afraid that the new palace master wouldn't know the trick and thought it was just a simple matter.
Every time a new palace master arrives, the three factions of the Xuandu Sect will prepare a generous gift.
"No need."
Chu Ning glanced at Qian Cheng indifferently. This glance made Qian Cheng's heart tremble. He did not dare to say anything more, lowered his head and walked out of the hall.
"These three factions are a bit confused."
Watching Qian Cheng's leaving figure, Chu Ning narrowed his eyes slightly. The three sects were so eager to entertain him and even prepared generous gifts. Even if Senior Brother Liu didn't mention it, he already knew the trick.
The mining of Tianhuo Mine is carried out by these three factions, and it is certain that some of them may have hidden secrets.
I prepare generous gifts for myself because I am afraid that the newcomer will discover these tricks and prepare to silence myself with generous gifts.
Chu Ning didn't come here to clean up. If they were investigated, wouldn't the previous palace masters also have to be punished by the sect?
If the water is clear, there will be no fish.
For ordinary disciples like Senior Brother Liu who are not particularly valued by the elders, it is not easy to obtain resources for a breakthrough.
If he really investigates thoroughly, it will be tantamount to offending all the ordinary disciples of Danshan Sect, which is not in line with his style of life.
For his own mountain soul nurturing plan, he had to give the three factions a blow first so that they would not dare to be too unscrupulous, at least during his term of office, they had to stay the same.
He didn't have time to stare all the time. The main purpose of coming to the Sky Fire Territory was to cultivate the mountain soul.
