Chapter 15: Another breakthrough in cultivation, big competition (two-in-one, seeking a harvest
"It\'s careless, I shouldn\'t have said that in a moment of emotion."
Backing to the attic, Chen Shen, who was about to make alchemy, thought for a second, is he too high-ranking?
It is true that he and Lu Changqing have a good relationship, but it is unreasonable to spend all their heart and soul after getting along with each other for a few months.
The other party brought him good wine and food every day, and Chen Shen always remembered it, but if you really want to go far, that is also a transaction.
Chen Shen did the daytime duties for him, and the other party brought some food, which was reasonable.
Lu Changqing may not have any bad intentions, but if he is used in the small secret realm when he is using the elixir spirit weapon he refined, someone with a heart will think about it, and then follow the clues, it will be troublesome.
You may be exposed.
The heart of defense is indispensable, and one\'s own strength is low, so one has to be cautious in words and deeds.
Thinking of all kinds of possibilities, Chen Shen hesitated, and finally, he was overwhelmed: "There are too many things about killing and seizing treasures, betrayal and betrayal, I can\'t take risks."
The next morning, Lu Changqing looked at each other and took a pot of wine from Chen Shen.
What about some good things?
Fortunately, he didn\'t fall asleep all night, and he still expected Chen Shen to surprise him.
The result is a jug of wine? Or the drunken flower wine that is common in restaurants?
"Congratulations to Senior Brother Lu on his triumphant return in advance!" Chen Shen smiled.
The former couldn\'t figure it out, so he could only nod his head: "I have borrowed a good word from my junior brother."
After Lu Changqing left, Chen Shen\'s life became more monotonous. Apart from listening to the bell to collect the body, he practiced at home.
Jingle Bell!
"Since Lu Changqing went to practice, more corpses have been sent every day." Chen Shen walked on the road and said to himself.
Those who died were all outer disciples, between the third and fifth floors, but not on the sixth floor.
Now these outer disciples have brought him very little income.
After the mid-level spiritual root, these incomplete and low-level spiritual roots cannot make up for it.
I have also learned supernatural powers and spells, and it is useless to increase my understanding, after all, they are only the most basic spells.
"It\'s a pity that the sect has stricter control over the life-and-death struggles of disciples above the inner sect. Even in the small secret realm, conflicts are not allowed to cause death."
He regretted, and soon, his face was serious again: "How can I have such thoughts?
This is a sign that I am about to become a demon, no, I have to be calm, and I can\'t pray for the death of the sect because of benefits, this is evil cultivation. "
In the next few days, Chen Shen recited the Mantra of Purifying Heart silently before collecting the corpse.
This is a very commonly used mantra for cultivating the mind and nature. It can clear the mind and calm the mind, preserve good and stop evil.
But as more and more corpses are sent every day, the system rewards are not much.
Chen Shen became irritable again, and the Purifying Heart Mantra couldn\'t suppress his heart.
For two days in a row, his face was pale, and he seemed to be really possessed.
Ten days later, Chen Shen was unkempt, his eyes were bloodshot, and his breath became messy.
Under the setting sun, he sat in front of the new grave with his eyes closed, and kept chanting the mantra of clearing the heart.
But the breath became more and more disordered, and there was a faint sign of reverse flow into the devil.
I don\'t know how long I\'ve been sitting on the grave, but the turmoil in Chen Shen\'s body began to subside, and gradually, it became calm.
He opened his eyes, and the dim eyes began to reflect the bright stars in the sky, becoming bright.
"It\'s not that I\'m eager for quick success, but that my thinking has entered a misunderstanding." He murmured.
"Of course I should pray that the master of the sect dies, because then I can become stronger.
But my prayer is not a spell, it has nothing to do with me, the story of the rivers and lakes is theirs, life and death are in their own hands, I just made a prayer, and the entanglement of karma is not up to me. Well, just lie flat. "
Chen Shen\'s eyes became brighter and his whole body was glowing.
"Xiu Xian asked, the essence is fighting. They are fighting for wealth and legal land. All I want is for their bodies to be buried. I have never interfered with anyone\'s life or death. Why do I have to reflect on myself?"
"What I should be most grateful for is the system. It is everything that the father of the system gave me. I have nothing to do with the prosperity of the sect. If there is no system, I would have died in the hands of Ye Shuangman or Ma Ruhai. Of course I have to pray for their death, because Only in this way can I become stronger and protect myself.
If this is an evil cultivator, then I will be the biggest evil cultivator in the world! "
Chen Shen seems to have realized that he will die soon after hearing the Tao.
The aura on his body began to become stronger, and the aura around him continued to gather here.
Enlightened Tao does not seek to brighten the world, nor to be too ruthless, Chen Shen\'s eyes shot out: "I don\'t want to be vigorous in this life, I only want to live forever!"
As the words fell, it seemed that some kind of shackles had been broken through his body, and his cultivation level gradually increased.
boom!
Chen Shen\'s whole body was in full swing, with a pleasant smile on his face.
He had just broken through to the seventh floor before, but he did not expect to break through again, and his cultivation directly reached the middle stage of the eighth level of Qi training!
And the foundation is not unstable at all, the foundation is very strong.
Chen Shen stood up and moved his body that had not moved for a long time.
Then, go to the attic.
As a result, I saw the radiant Lu Changqing approaching.
Chen Shen greeted him with a smile all over his face: "Congratulations, brother, come back."
"Junior Brother Chen, I have made a breakthrough, and I have already practiced Qi at the fourth level. How about it? Hurry up, I\'m not a genius."
Lu Changqing patted Chen Shen on the shoulder, showing off non-stop.
"Brother, tell you, I got a lot of treasures in the small secret realm this time."
After chatting for a while, they went home. Lu Changqing needed to count the harvest, and Chen Shen also wanted to practice.
One day, Chen Shen, who was meditating in the room, suddenly frowned. He heard the mountains shake and the ground tremble.
ah~
It seems to be a woman\'s voice.
Chen Shen pulled up the curtain on the second floor, just in time to see a very charming woman with a flushed face coming out of the opposite room.
The other party seemed to have noticed him, and even winked at Chen Shen.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Changqing walked out of the room with a happy face and waved to the woman.
Um?
He noticed that someone on the second floor across the street was looking straight at him, and Lu Changqing\'s face turned red all the way up to his neck. After a long pause, he said, "The peaceful life of cultivating immortals must be exciting, Junior Brother Chen, right?"
The latter nodded, expressing understanding.
Late at night for several days in a row, Chen Shen could hear the slight groans coming from the ground from the underground palace.
It was only after drinking that I found out that Lu Changqing\'s elder brother took several of his younger brothers to the Hehuan Building once, and other fellow students had experienced it, and thought it was nothing.
But Xiao Liu is a young child, as if he has opened the door to a new world, and has been out of control ever since.
It is more expensive to go to the Hehuan Building for a night package, so he called the female monks in the outer gate who were doing private work.
The price is very favorable.
In the blink of an eye, another month passed, and Chen Shen celebrated his second Spring Festival in Cangwu Xianzong.
Many disciples of the sect who have secular ties have asked for leave to go home, including Lu Changqing.
But he went to see Guanshi Sun to ask for leave but was unsuccessful, the reason being that the Tianzhu Mountain needs to be guarded and cannot ask for leave.
In fact, Chen Shen knew in his heart that the fairy mountain was too high for mortals to walk down by themselves, and Manager Sun didn\'t want to arrange for monks to take him down the mountain.
Many mortals in Xianzong can also go home to celebrate the New Year, but only if they have a good master.
Lu Changqing was homesick and left too early to help.
Chen Shen hesitated for a long time before deciding to go back to Cang Kingdom to take a look, but was ruthlessly rejected.
"Forget it, let\'s stay in Tianzhu Mountain and practice." He turned and left.
Just like that, time passed again.
When everything recovered and Lu Changqing came back, Chen Shen\'s cultivation had already reached the late eighth level.
"Junior Brother Chen, I heard that you didn\'t go back, so I specially brought you special products from my hometown."
Lu Changqing stood in front of the attic door and shouted.
The two of them had a delicious meal, and Lu Changqing was slightly drunk and said that he would get rid of his bad habits and use all the spirit stones for cultivation.
The next night, Chen Shen heard the sound of the opposite bed shaking, from seven or eight o\'clock at night until the dawn of the next morning.
Intervals are short!
It\'s really a long drought and rain, so strong!
More than half a month later.
The annual Outer Sect Competition is in full swing, Lu Changqing leaves early and returns late, and has fewer bad habits.
And Chen Shen used the standard resources of inner disciples to successfully cultivate to the eighth level of perfection.
At the wine table, he intentionally or unintentionally asked the reason why the other party was less used to it.
Lu Changqing slapped the table: "What is a habit? How could I be such a person?"
Then he said:
"Now that brother is hitting the top three in the competition, we are trying to figure out a way to pull down the only competitor."
It turns out that there are not many outstanding figures from the outer sect this year, and the highest is only the middle stage of the sixth level of Qi training, a total of four people.
His elder brother is also at this level.
Two of them followed the grandson of the elder, and heard that they were given middle-grade spiritual weapons, so they almost pre-ordered the first two.
Brother Lu Changqing and the other can only compete for third place.
So before the finals, there was some friction between the two, and each younger brother wanted to kill the other boss.
"It\'s my life, why force it." Chen Shen doesn\'t agree with this approach.
He thinks, either don\'t do it, or do it absolutely.
The grandson of the elder is a dandy, with a bad reputation in the outside world, and he is probably a lawless and lawless person.
It\'s better to collect the evidence of the grandson\'s crime and send it to Lin Shujin.
Let that jealous Lin Shujin kill the grandson of the elder, and then unite with his opponents to pull down the top two. In the end, they each occupy a seat, and then let their younger brother fight for the third seat.
Chen Shen conveyed his thoughts cryptically, but unexpectedly, Lu Changqing was surprised: "Junior Brother Chen, I can\'t see it!"
The other party looked at Chen Shen from beginning to end several times: "I usually look like a gentle little brother, but I didn\'t expect him to be so vicious."
"I was just joking, how could you offend that elder\'s grandson? Last time, Lin Shujin stood up for his maidservant. This time, there is no interest involved, so he will definitely not make a move. Don\'t take it seriously."
Chen Shen defended himself, he is a good boy with good roots.
"How come, we are not fools, why provoke the elder\'s grandson, Jin Ao, are you courting death?" Lu Changqing shook his head.
A few days later, he was injured and returned to Tianzhu Mountain.
"Brother Lu, are you fighting?" Chen Shen asked in surprise.
You are really young and energetic, just do what you say.
Although the corner of Lu Changqing\'s mouth was bloody, he was in a good mood: "Someone has already implemented your idea."
"What? I just said it casually, you really do it." Chen Shen was surprised.
His idea was a big gamble, not to mention how risky it is to collect Luo Jinao\'s evidence, the most critical part lies in Lin Shujin.
That Tianjiao didn\'t know if he was really jealous or just standing up for the maidservant. If the other party ignored him, everything would be in vain.
Lu Changqing smiled and shook his head: "It wasn\'t our people who did it. I deliberately disclosed this idea to the hostile gang, and it turned out that there really were a few idiots who wanted to do this."
Another five days passed, and this time Lu Changqing was injured more seriously than last time, with blood all over his body.
He said with an ugly face: "Careless, those **** didn\'t dare to deal with Jin Ao at all, everything is to make us vigilant."
"How many died?" Chen Shen knew from his posture that it was another shopping spree.
"One, those people are a bunch of mad dogs, desperately trying to kill our elder brother. We resisted desperately. A fellow with a good relationship was blocked by a sword in order to block the knife for elder brother."
Lu Changqing gritted his teeth, murderous.
"If the law enforcement disciples hadn\'t come, I would have let the culprit stay there too."
After Fobo came, they had no choice but to disperse, otherwise they would be in trouble if they were caught.
Chen Shen looked at the seriously injured Lu Changqing, and said to himself that if there were no law enforcement disciples, you would stay there.
"Let\'s recuperate first, and leave other things alone." He helped the other party into the house and comforted him.
As a result, the next night, Lu Changqing left the Tianzhu Mountain.
The reason is that the finals are coming soon. In order to prevent that senior brother from being assassinated or injured, all the followers will watch every day and night.
Chen Shen couldn\'t persuade him, so he could only watch the situation from the sidelines.
Fortunately, everything went well, and the elder brothers of both sides were not robbed before the game.
On the afternoon of the final day, Lu Changqing returned to Tianzhu Mountain to announce the good news, and brought Chen Shen a lot of delicious food: "My eldest brother has entered the inner sect. From now on, your brother and I have the support of inner sect disciples."
"Congratulations, brother!" Chen Shen congratulated sincerely.
Back then, in order to send that eldest brother into the inner gate, a horse boy was killed.
But it seems that the eldest brother has two brushes, and he actually won the top three.
"I won\'t come back tonight, your sixth brother. My senior brother went to the inner door to report. We made an appointment to meet at the outer door in the evening, and we will have a drink with you next time."
He is really a very sincere person. He was the first to announce the good news to Chen Shen and brought food.
As a result, not long after night fell, Chen Shen, who was practicing in the underground palace, heard footsteps coming from the ground.
"Lu Changqing?" He hid in the house and peeped at the figure outside, frowning.
Then, he pretended not to fall asleep and walked out of the attic.
"Huh? Brother Lu, didn\'t you go to celebrate?" Chen Shen asked in surprise.
On the opposite side, Lu Changqing walked over with dim eyes, as if he had lost his soul.
It wasn\'t until Chen Shen called out three times that he was distracted and pulled back.
"Oh, Brother Chen, haven\'t you slept yet? Go to bed early, and you have to work tomorrow." Lu Changqing smiled.
He was about to leave and return to his attic, but found that Chen Shen hadn\'t left, but was standing there looking at him.
Sighed in his heart, he said: "Then Junior Brother Chen, would you like to have a drink with me?"
"I\'m so happy." Chen Shen nodded with a smile.
After the two drank a few cups, Lu Changqing suddenly burst into tears:
"That **** Han Jun is a white-eyed wolf. He never thought of avenging Xiao Ma. He abandoned all of our partners who were born and died for him."
Han Jun is the eldest brother he has been following, and Xiao Ma is the disciple who blocked the knife for Han Jun.
