Longevity starts with choosing Hextech enhancement

Chapter 339 You've finished killing? (4K)

"Strange, how could the defensive array here have been breached from the inside?"

Gangyuan Zhenjun stood at the bow of the ship, his divine sense sweeping over a medium-sized island more than 900 miles away.

According to the intelligence they had, this place originally had a fourth-order array as a defensive node, but now it is deserted.

Not only that, even the base of the array was dug up and exposed on the ground.

The spirit stones on top have all been pried off, making it look like an internal strife has occurred.

That's strange, it shouldn't be like that.

While everyone was still confused, the newly set-up surveillance array on the spirit ship suddenly emitted a sharp warning sound.

Immediately, everyone saw a streak of light, light blue, rapidly approaching them from a distance, skimming the surface of the sea.

Upon closer inspection, it was indeed Xiao Chen riding the waves.

As a water-based escape technique, the "Flying Cloud Stepping on Waves Technique" can effectively conserve true energy when applied to the sea surface.

At the same time, riding the waves is also a very pleasing sight to behold.

"So it's Fellow Daoist Xiao. He seems to be alright."

Seeing this, True Monarch Yunfeng felt relieved. The escape speed was so fast, but it wasn't like they were running for their lives, which most likely meant that the person was alright.

In that case, the next siege will have one more person to handle.

"Fellow Daoist Xiao, it's so good to know you're alright."

Gangyuan Zhenjun also waved to signal.

After Xiao Chen boarded the ship and stood still, he said, "You left in a hurry and missed an important piece of information."

"According to information from our informants within the Zhaokong Sect, their mountain-protecting formation can unleash the incredibly powerful Zhaokong Divine Light."

“We’ve been very worried these past two days that you might be ambushed by them.”

"Thank goodness you're back safe and sound."

At the same time, the other True Lords also came over.

Especially Thunderbolt True Lord, whose eyes were full of curiosity.

Strictly speaking, this was their second meeting.

After the last Eight Directions Arena ended, Thunder Spear returned to his sect to begin seclusion, attempting to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.

As a result, I heard a lot about Xiao Chen's major achievements, whether it was the Cangran Secret Realm or the new ruins, his reputation had soared.

It has gained considerable recognition throughout the entire ocean of compassion.

These past few days, sitting on the boat listening to the stories told by True Lord Gangyuan and others, I have been filled with surprise, curiosity, and confusion.

It's really hard to understand. We're all newly promoted to the Nascent Soul stage, so why is there such a big difference between us?

Upon seeing Xiao Chen approach, he immediately came over and quietly looked him up and down.

But how to say it?

Thunderbolt Monarch felt that Xiao Chen's speed when he arrived was indeed quite fast, but he didn't seem very fierce.

Especially when he greeted Gangyuan Zhenjun and the others in turn.

He didn't exude any murderous intent or sharp edge, nor did he display the youthful ambition and lofty spirit of someone who had achieved great things.

He seemed to be just an ordinary young monk, and he spoke quite kindly.

He was very much like a noble young master from a prominent family, and he communicated with senior figures like Gang Yuan Zhenjun, who were a small realm higher than him, with neither arrogance nor servility.

In short, she is quite different from the image that was rumored to exist.

"This is Thunderbolt True Lord, you should have met him before."

Gangyuan Zhenjun explained, "His background wasn't good. He didn't have a name since he was a child. Later, he learned the Thunderclap Breathing Technique and received this Dharma name."

"You can just call him Thunderbolt."

Generally speaking, when introducing someone, you should not emphasize that they are an orphan and have no family support.

This is somewhat like touching on someone's sore spot and can easily lead to being looked down upon.

However, for a Nascent Soul True Monarch, this has become an advantage, indicating that he has reached this point almost entirely through talent and self-reliance.

Moreover, once they reach this level, they mostly no longer need a family background.

At least in the area of ​​the Sea of ​​Compassion, the Nascent Soul True Monarch himself is the biggest background figure.

Xiao Chen replied politely, "Congratulations on your successful breakthrough, fellow Daoist. May your path to immortality be everlasting."

Thunderbolt True Lord replied with two polite words.

After everyone praised each other,

Gangyuan Zhenjun then offered, “Fellow Daoists, I have just brewed a pot of fine tea inside. Why don’t you all come in and sit down together?”

"Let's enjoy some tea and discuss what's next."

"I've been thinking about how to break the formation these past two days. I'll have to trouble Fellow Daoist Xiao to tell me about the situation at the Zhaokong Sect later."

The others had no objections and were preparing to walk inside together.

However, Xiao Chen smiled calmly: "There's no need for discussion. We arrived just in time and managed to intercept True Monarch Jianying's spirit shuttle, preventing them from escaping back to the sect."

"There shouldn't be any hostile Nascent Soul cultivators here now."

As he spoke, he deliberately raised his hand to show off the storage ring he had seized.

what?
Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

No, we haven't even arrived yet, and you've already killed them all?

Apart from True Monarch Liekong, everyone present had fought the two from Zhaokong Sect head-on and had already recognized the style of the two storage rings.

Storage rings are practically a cultivator's lifeline.

Holding the enemy's storage ring and claiming they had been eliminated was irrefutable evidence.

Especially Thunderbolt True Lord, whose eyelids twitched immediately.

For the past two years, he had spent almost every day in the formation confronting the Shadow Mirror True Lord and the others.

Even with the help of the formation, the pressure is still considerable.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen managed to defeat two opponents head-on and wipe them out.

He's only been at the Nascent Soul stage for a year, yet he's already two combat power levels higher than me. Is that even reasonable?
Previously, when Thunderbolt True Lord heard those rumors or heard about the battles, he didn't have a very clear understanding of them.

After all, he didn't see it with his own eyes, so it's hard for him to truly empathize.

But at this moment, he suddenly felt that Xiao Chen's aura had changed, and the overflowing killing intent was so sharp that it was almost blinding.

Everyone was just greeting each other warmly, chatting and laughing, creating a peaceful atmosphere.

Then you told me you just killed two Nascent Soul cultivators yesterday.

This undoubtedly sent a shiver down the spine of Thunderbolt True Lord, leaving him feeling utterly shocked.

The key point is that even after such a big incident, Xiao Chen still seems so calm.

He spoke in a very calm tone, without any fluctuation, as if he had only done a trivial little thing.

Thinking of this, Thunderbolt True Lord's gaze sharpened.

That's a wolf in sheep's clothing!

He retracted his previous mistaken idea; the person in front of him was extremely dangerous.

That seemingly harmless appearance is nothing but a disguise.

As for his composure and humility, it wasn't because of his background, but because of his own strength.

It should be noted that True Monarch Jianying is also a mid-Nascent Soul cultivator!

The group fell silent as they looked at the storage ring.

Xiao Chen continued, "As for that Fusion Spirit Divine Light Array, it is indeed quite powerful, but it's actually not that bad if there's no Nascent Soul cultivator in charge of the array."

"Killing the person carrying the main battle flag will allow us to avoid the divine light."

"They're not that difficult to deal with."

"I've already dismantled that formation, so there shouldn't be many people left on the Three Leaf Islands now."

what?
Hearing that the mountain-protecting formation had also been dealt with, everyone was once again taken aback. Wasn't the mountain-protecting formation difficult to deal with?

If anyone else had said that, they would probably have thought this person was crazy.

Since the sea race's invasion two years ago, all major sects have become extremely reliant on defensive formations, especially mountain-protecting formations.

Even the lower-level cultivators have realized the importance of having formations.

As a result, Xiao Chen actually dismantled the mountain-protecting formation in less than a day, which is simply outrageous!
Especially Gangyuan Zhenjun and Hanchuan Zhenjun.

They were both quite knowledgeable about formations, which made it even more unbelievable.

Meanwhile, True Monarch Yunfeng's pupils constricted, a terrifying thought rising in his mind: "Fellow Daoist Xiao, I've heard that you possess a talisman that can pull enemies closer."

"Could it be possible to capture a cultivator holding the main formation flag even within the mountain-protecting formation?"

He had personally witnessed the mechanical grappling hook piercing through the defensive array, as recorded on a photographic stone.

But the mountain-protecting formation is different.

First of all, this is the most complex formation. Not only does it cost a fortune to set up, but it also consumes an absurd amount of resources.

Secondly, the mountain-protecting formation is one of the greatest reliance of all major sects.

In the face of a major crisis, it is often the most reliable and last resort means of resistance.

If the protective mountain formation fails, then there will be virtually no safe place to stay.

What worries Yunfeng Zhenjun even more is that the formation used by their Mozhang Sect is almost identical.

Without him in the formation, they really would have to rely on the main formation flag to guide the formation's counterattack.

In other words, the same outrageous loophole exists.

“That’s right, my talisman is quite special and not affected by this aspect.”

Xiao Chen nodded, agreeing with Yunfeng Zhenjun's guess.

The other party was quite clever; they immediately connected the dots to his method of breaking the formation.

After receiving his affirmation, everyone gasped in surprise.

Both True Monarch Rift Sky and True Monarch Thunderbolt were somewhat envious, as they also wished to possess such useful talismans, but unfortunately, their sects could hardly provide them.

Both Gangyuan Zhenjun and Yunfeng Zhenjun firmly memorized this message.

They unanimously decided that upon returning, they must record this matter in the sect's records to warn future generations to be careful and take precautions.

Because they didn't know it was a Hextech effect.

So they immediately realized that since Xiao Chen possessed such methods, others were likely to have them as well.

Moreover, this kind of thing must be guarded against, and we must pay more attention to it.

Seeing that everyone remained silent, seemingly unsure of how to begin, he noticed...

After waiting for a while, Xiao Chen took the initiative to ask, "Speaking of which, there is something I would like to trouble Fellow Daoist Yunfeng with."

"I've been gathering clues about ancient magical artifacts lately."

"I wonder if there are any relevant records within your sect? If it's convenient, may I go and take a look?"

Upon hearing this, True Monarch Yunfeng immediately came to his senses.

He immediately agreed, "No problem at all. Fellow Daoist Xiao is welcome to visit my Mozhang Sect anytime."

As he spoke, he took out a token from his storage ring and handed it over directly: "Fellow Daoist, please take my token. You can read any ancient book you wish to read."

"This sword is engraved with secret runes. As long as you carry it with you, you can directly enter the top level."

"When Fellow Daoist Xiao is reading on the top floor, he can keep the book in his bosom or sleeve, but he should not put it into his storage ring."

Without hesitation, True Lord Yunfeng gave away his exclusive token.

There's nothing to consider about this.

Not to mention that it is perfectly normal for Nascent Soul cultivators to borrow ancient books.

Given Xiao Chen's current strength and immeasurable future potential, there's absolutely no reason for him to refuse such a request.

Yunfeng Zhenjun even sincerely hoped that Xiao Chen could frequently visit their sect.

To build a closer relationship, you first need to be able to meet the person in question.

Those ancient books are just sitting there; they won't break if you take a look.

Since it is a reusable resource, it should naturally be offered up for exchange or given away to suitable partners.

There is no more suitable partner than now.

"Thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Yunfeng!"

Xiao Chen thanked him graciously, accepted the token, and then said, "Now that the battle on the west side is over, I will not be going there."

"I plan to go to Mozhang Peak first, and then I have some personal matters to take care of."

"See you again in a while."

He had already looted the entire area, so naturally he wouldn't go back a second time.

Perhaps we should first investigate the clues about the Star Sand Wave Shield and carefully study the next action plan.

"Fellow Daoist Xiao, please wait a moment. Would you like a cup of spiritual tea before you leave?"

Gangyuan Zhenjun spoke up to persuade him to stay: "It just so happens that Fellow Daoist Iron Fan from the Cangming Immortal Sect has sent a young friend over to pay his respects to you. He is currently on the ship."

"I heard that he also brought a gift for you, fellow Daoist."

"If Fellow Daoist Xiao isn't in a hurry to leave, should I call him over now?"

Iron Fan True Lord also wrote a letter to Gang Yuan True Lord, entrusting him to help take care of him.

They've known each other for a long time, so they'll try to help each other if they can.

"Fellow Daoist Iron Fan? You even brought a gift?"

Xiao Chen was somewhat surprised: "I'm not in such a hurry. I'll borrow your spiritual tea for a while before I leave."

Upon hearing his agreement, True Lord Gangyuan also voluntarily gave up the pavilion and the spirit tea.

Then they sent someone to call for Master Yunya, who had been running away from the Shallow Sky Sea for more than a month and finally caught up with him the day before yesterday.

That's why it took so long to arrive.

The main reason is that his speed as a Golden Core cultivator is quite limited, much slower than Xiao Chen's, so he naturally needs to spend more time.

In fact, True Lord Gangyuan and the others had already asked True Person Yunya about their purpose in coming.

Therefore, they did not follow them in at this moment, leaving the space to the two of them.

"This junior pays respects to the True Lord!"

Master Yunya bowed deeply as soon as he arrived, his head almost touching his feet.

"Fellow Daoist Yunya, it's actually you who has come."

The moment Xiao Chen saw the person who had arrived, he immediately reached out and helped him up, saying, "There's no need for such formalities. Come and sit down."

"We also have the spiritual tea of ​​the Tiangang Sect here. I don't know if you've ever tried it. You should try it."

He was very grateful for the sea chart the other party provided; otherwise, he might still be searching for evil energy in the southwest right now.

Although the other party was unaware of the evil aura, Xiao Chen still remembered his kindness.

Although he has now become a Nascent Soul True Lord.

However, they wouldn't look down on the other person because of this; on the contrary, they would be very happy to have the opportunity to repay the other person.

"Fellow Daoist Yunya, your timing is perfect."

"guess what?"

"I just found a Spirit-Storing Grass in the Zhaokong Sect's warehouse."

"You'll definitely need this, so put it away quickly."

The Yuan-Storing and Spirit-Gathering Grass is an essential ingredient for refining the Breakthrough Spirit Pill, the Nascent Soul-Storing and Yuan-Storing Pill.

The other party helped him with a breakthrough opportunity, so he could reciprocate by giving one in return.
