Chapter 259 Breakthrough Failed
"Ning Baibai, why don't you go to Xianmiao Mountain to practice?" Fu Liyang asked Ning Ruoxi.

Ning Ruoxi also knew that her staying in the cave to practice would make Fu Liyang suspicious, so she had already thought of an excuse.

"Palace Master, Senior Brother Ji came to see me a few days ago."

Fu Liyang raised his eyebrows and roughly guessed the reason.

Ning Ruoxi continued, "Senior Brother Ji wants me to join him and Senior Sister Yao in an alliance to deal with Senior Brother Lu."

"I refused. I haven't dared to go out to practice recently, so as not to get into trouble."

Fu Liyang nodded and said, "I see. Recently, Lu Chenyi is going to break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm by merging his body with the Dao. I guess the two of them want to deal with Lu Chenyi during that time."

"Palace Master, are you going to stop them?"

"Why should we stop them?" Fu Liyang asked Ning Ruoxi.

“How can a genius who cannot grow up be called a genius?”

"Did you know that there were dozens of seed disciples before Lu Chenyi? All of them were lost in the assessment of the Grand Hall Master. Either they died or they failed the assessment and took up other positions."

"Don't be afraid. They don't dare to do anything in public. Otherwise, I will definitely seek justice for you."

"Yes, Hall Master!"

Since Fu Liyang said so, it is impossible for Ning Ruoxi to continue staying in the cave to practice the Taiyin Dao.

But from what Fu Liyang said, he doesn't really care about Lu Chenyi's life or death?

Even coming to say these things to me, Fu Liyang values ​​me more? Is there any conspiracy behind this?

This is the Temple of Immortals and Gods, so Ning Ruoxi has to be extremely alert to deal with it.

After Fu Liyang left, Ning Ruoxi walked out of the cave and went to Xianmiao Mountain. The spiritual energy and fairy air of Xianmiao Mountain were very rich. It was said that the whole mountain was made of top-grade fairy stones.

Then he used the formation to extract the immortal energy from the top-grade immortal stone for the cultivators on the mountain to practice.

Ning Ruoxi found a place to sit down and began to absorb the immortal energy. A seed disciple could practice in Xianmiao Mountain for twenty days a month.

After Ning Ruoxi had practiced for the time a seed disciple could use, she planned to go down the mountain and return to her cave. Unexpectedly, the person who came to find her first was Huo Haotian instead of Ji Junrui.

Huo Haotian bowed to Ning Ruoxi and said, "Junior Sister Ning."

"Senior Brother Huo!" Ning Ruoxi also returned the greeting.

"I have been helping to assess the newly recruited disciples for some time, so I have not had time to visit Junior Sister Ning. Now that the assessment for recruiting disciples is over, I heard that Junior Sister Ning is training in Xianmiao Mountain, so I came to chat with Junior Sister Ning."

"I wonder if Junior Sister Ning would be so kind as to fight me again?"

Ning Ruoxi refused and said, "Senior Brother Huo is very strong, so I am naturally not as good as him. Let's not fight again! If Senior Brother Huo has nothing else to do, I will leave first."

"Don't worry, Junior Sister Ning. I can lower my cultivation level and fight with you at the same level as Junior Sister Ning."

"Brother Huo has the Holy Star Body. How can the Holy Star Body suppress him? Brother Huo, you should focus on the seed disciples of your Third Hall! They are your competitors."

Huo Haotian was stunned for a moment, then said: "Junior Sister Ning, don't you know? I am the only seed disciple in the Third Hall."

"This recruitment assessment allows me to verify the strength of the disciples in the Xuanxian Realm, which is to give us in the Third Hall the power to give priority in selecting disciples." Ning Ruoxi understood. No wonder Huo Haotian had nothing to do and asked her to fight. It turned out that the Third Hall had no other seed disciples to compete with him. He was really free.

"Then Senior Brother Huo should not bother me. We have four seed disciples in the Seventh Palace, including me. The competition in the Seventh Palace is quite fierce."

"If Senior Brother Huo is really eager to show off his skills, you can fight with Senior Brother Ji Junrui from the Seventh Hall. Senior Brother Ji and Senior Brother Huo are both cultivators of the same realm."

Huo Haotian frowned. What Ning Ruoxi said made sense. On normal days, the various halls had little contact with each other. He was fighting against the seed disciples of another hall, which seemed like he was trying to ruin the show.

Ning Ruoxi would not bring trouble upon herself. If she got into trouble in the battle with Huo Haotian again, she would not be able to practice in a low profile.

"Senior Brother Huo, goodbye!" Ning Ruoxi said goodbye to Huo Haotian and then left quickly.

As soon as Ning Ruoxi returned to the management area of ​​the Seventh Palace, she saw the disciples in the palace rushing towards the Seventh Palace in a hurry.

"Senior brother, what happened?" Ning Ruoxi stopped a man who was about to go into the hall.

The man seemed to recognize Ning Ruoxi's identity as a seed disciple. He stopped and explained, "Junior Sister Ning, Senior Brother Lu had an accident. Yesterday, he was in his cave preparing to break through, but someone destroyed the formation in Senior Brother Lu's cave. As a result, Senior Brother Lu did not have enough immortal power to break through this time, and failed to break through."

In the Temple of Immortals, the most reassuring place is one’s own cave, so most cultivators will break through in the cave.

When a seed disciple breaks through, he can apply to the hall master for a magic array to gather spiritual energy so that there is enough spiritual energy supply for the breakthrough.

But this time when Lu Chenyi broke through, the formation was tampered with by someone.

Ning Ruoxi entered the Seventh Hall, where Fu Liyang, Lu Chenyi and others were.

Lu Chenyi was weak because he suffered backlash for his failed breakthrough. It would take him a long time to recover. It was unknown whether he would have a chance to break through to the Immortal Emperor realm again.

Fu Liyang was furious and spoke in defense of Lu Chenyi, "Last night, when Lu Chenyi was breaking through, someone tampered with the formation that gathered the immortal energy. Don't let me know who dared to tamper with it in secret, otherwise I will make you pay."

"Okay, Chen Yi, go back and rest first!"

"Yes, Hall Master."

Ning Ruoxi watched quietly. She didn't believe that Fu Liyang didn't know who the murderer was. She guessed that Lu Chenyi himself knew, but he just didn't have the evidence to find the murderer!

Fu Liyang glanced and saw Ning Ruoxi, then said to the disciples, "Okay, let's all go!"

Ning Ruoxi heard Fu Liyang's voice, "Come here."

Ning Ruoxi and Fu Liyang were the only ones left in the hall. Fu Liyang raised his hand and motioned Ning Ruoxi to sit down. "Have you just returned from Xianmiao Mountain?"

"Yeah!" Ning Ruoxi nodded slightly.

"You saw what happened just now. Lu Chenyi failed to break through."

"Did they do it?" Ning Ruoxi asked. Both of them knew who "they" were.

"Yes, when Lu Chenyi was about to break through, he applied to me for the installation of a formation to gather immortal energy. I had to go to the Formation Pavilion to apply for this formation. After I applied, the Formation Pavilion sent someone to install the formation in Lu Chenyi's cave."

"And this person is a cousin of Ji Junrui, and Lu Chenyi doesn't know about it." Fu Liyang explained.

"Since Palace Master knows all this, why doesn't he point it out?"
