Chapter 57: Danding Dao Sect, Lanjiang Daoist (Asking for Follow-up Reading)
If there really were a 【Hidden Immortal Land】, it wouldn't be their turn.
Among them, there must be something tricky.
In Lu Chen's memory of the last Hidden Immortal Land trial, the outer sect fought until their heads were broken and blood flowed.
They were basically all disciples who had fully unlocked the three divine anomalies of the Second Heavenly Ladder Realm, and there were even elites ranked in the top one hundred of the Outer Sect among them.
It was not just a contest of strength, but also a comprehensive wrestling of connections and family background.
The competition was really too great!
These four people before him, even the strongest Feng Yuan, might be hard-pressed to have the qualifications to get involved.
Not to mention, there was Zhou Liang, whose strength was comparable to the predecessor, on the side.
After Feng Yuan learned the trial results.
His excitement was overflowing, and he left hurriedly.
Yue Qiulan also followed, and when she looked back, she cast a meaningful glance at Lu Chen.
Only Zhang Ziling had not left yet.
Zhou Liang's face was full of joy, and he sat down again, picking up a spiritual fruit.
"Puchi!"
Took a bite.
"Junior Brother Lu, I know what you are thinking?"
He saw Lu Chen's doubt.
"If this is really the 【Hidden Immortal Land】 launched by the sect, I am afraid none of the four of us would have a chance."
"However, things are unpredictable; perhaps this time, we really have a chance to enter the Hidden Immortal Land."
"May I ask Yu Shixiong to clarify?"
Lu Chen heard this, and he thought of a possibility, saying in a deep voice:
"Could it be a newly discovered 【Hidden Immortal Land】 that has not yet been opened?"
Zhou Liang nodded.
"Otherwise!"
"Otherwise, how would we have the qualifications to go for a trial."
Lu Chen stared at the jade token in his hand, deep in thought.
This Hidden Immortal Land that has not been completely cleared undoubtedly represents unknown dangers, and the mortality rate far exceeds that of the Hidden Immortal Lands that the sect has already cleared.
However!
At the same time, it also means unprecedented opportunities; a Hidden Immortal Land that no one has ever set foot in is a true treasure.
Like a real "first prize" in a lottery; if you win, you don't go home tonight!
Zhou Liang continued:
"This trial was personally explored by several teachers of Yuqing Peak; although it has not been completely cleared, it has been preliminarily evaluated as Yellow Rank Low Grade."
"Yuqing Peak decided to hand over this 【Hidden Immortal Land】 to several true disciples to explore; Senior Sister Li Qingshui is one of them."
"All gains are shared with the sect, and life and death are at one's own risk."
Especially the last sentence, Zhou Liang emphasized his tone.
Lu Chen nodded lightly after hearing this.
It is not uncommon for the eight inner sect branches to develop Hidden Immortal Lands on their own.
Everyone knows about life and death being at one's own risk.
Yellow Rank Low Grade Hidden Immortal Land.
Belongs to the lowest Hidden Immortal Land, which might be the tomb or cave dwelling of some ancient Third Heavenly Ladder cultivator.
Inner sect disciples might not look down upon it.
But!
In the outer sect, it is the truly most popular Hidden Immortal Land, with low danger and extremely likely to have opportunities for Foundation Establishment.
Lu Chen looked at the jade talisman in his hand!
Could this really be a creation!
"No!"
Lu Chen suddenly became alert.
If this were really the case.
Yuqing Peak would not need to cover it up; such things are not considered violations.
And it needs a true disciple to secretly recruit people.
Lu Chen looked at the two people at the table again.
Zhou Liang sighed leisurely.
Zhang Ziling on the side chimed in:
"Yu Shixiong Lu, you don't know."
"The first batch of outer sect disciples recruited for this trial mostly died inside, including three inner sect disciples; the news was suppressed by several true disciples responsible for this trial."
"Only one inner sect disciple escaped by luck, bringing out three items."
Lu Chen's eyes froze.
Inner sect disciples are all at the Third Heavenly Ladder, Foundation Establishment or higher cultivation.
Only one escaped!
The news was blocked; it seems the matter is of great importance, or the treasures inside are extraordinary.
Lu Chen could not help but ask:
"What was brought out?"
Zhou Liang took over the topic, his tone leisurely revealing:
"An alchemy furnace, in which there was a broken ancient Martial Pulse Pill."
As soon as these words came out, Lu Chen was shocked.
Martial Pulse Pill!
Legend has it that after taking this pill, one can inherit the martial arts inheritance left by predecessors, greatly improving martial arts realm, and even have the opportunity to directly reach Martial Arts Foundation Establishment.
A Hidden Immortal Land actually has a Martial Pulse Pill!
The attraction to outer sect disciples is really too great.
Martial Arts Foundation Establishment is the best Foundation Establishment method among superior Foundation Establishments.
"Besides that, there was also a Daoist robe and a volume of alchemy books," Zhou Liang added, "The teachers of Yuqing Peak have confirmed that this was the place where a disciple of Lanjiang Daoist sat and transformed."
Lu Chen frowned after hearing this.
Lanjiang Daoist!
There is no one related to this person in his memory.
Seeing Lu Chen's doubt, Zhang Ziling continued to explain:
"Yu Shixiong Lu, you might not have heard of Lanjiang Daoist, but you must know the Danding Dao Sect? That is a great sect as famous as our Shenxiao Sect, famous for alchemy."
Lu Chen nodded; he naturally knew the Danding Dao Sect.
Zhou Liang continued:
"Lanjiang Daoist was a legendary figure of the Danding Dao Sect ten thousand years ago. He was originally just an ordinary spiritual planter in the sect, similar to our Shenxiao Sect's servant disciples, responsible for planting spiritual herbs, with mediocre aptitude."
"However, what is unexpected is that his cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds within a short hundred years, and he broke through the Great True Person realm before the age of two hundred, which was a sensation at the time."
"However, what is even more legendary is that after this Lanjiang Daoist reached the peak, he mysteriously betrayed the sect."
"In order to maintain the dignity of the sect, the Danding Dao Sect dispatched four masters of the Great True Person realm to pursue and kill him, and finally beheaded him."
Zhou Liang's tone was full of regret for this legendary figure.
After hearing this, Lu Chen finally sorted out all the contents of this trial.
Hidden Immortal Land—Disciple of Lanjiang Daoist (suspected).
Difficulty—Yellow Rank Low Grade (danger might double).
Harvest—Martial Pulse Pill. (Might scratch a big prize.)
For the true disciples' practice of suppressing the news, Lu Chen also expressed understanding.
After all, this involves the inheritance of a Great True Person; once the news leaks, I am afraid it will lead to countless disputes and troubles.
True disciples might not care about the Yellow Rank Low Grade Hidden Immortal Land itself, but the inheritance of a Great True Person is heavy enough to make them treat it cautiously.
Quick battle, quick decision, taking away the treasures inside is undoubtedly the wisest choice.
Most Hidden Immortal Lands are extremely vast, and a few people cannot explore them completely.
Therefore, there is.
Several true disciples of Yuqing Peak chose to secretly recruit people to explore together, and the treasures obtained can be shared fifty-fifty; this is undoubtedly an efficient and wise approach.
Lu Chen looked at Zhou Liang and sized him up.
Could not help but be curious!
This Yu Shixiong Zhou, who advocates enjoying life, with cultivation only as an embellishment of life.
How could!
Spend so much effort for a 【Hidden Immortal Land】, and not hesitate to take risks.
Zhou Liang seemed to be uncomfortable being looked at by Lu Chen; he cleared his throat and said earnestly:
"Junior Brother Lu, I do this, not for myself."
"Only for Qingshui."
"She is leading the team into the Hidden Immortal Land alone this time; I am really worried."
Especially the last sentence, he elongated his tone.
Lu Chen heard this and secretly slandered.
Senior Sister Li Qingshui, with her deep cultivation, can beat ten of you, Zhou Liang, with one hand.
Tsk tsk—
Playing the pure love war god, right!
"Tsk tsk... tsk."
Zhou Liang looked at Lu Chen's increasingly outrageous eyes and finally could not help but say:
"Lu Chen, what kind of eyes are those!"
