Chapter 263 Destiny
The world of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, Poison Wolf Mountain.

On the Poison Wolf Mountain where wild wolves were rampant, a figure suddenly appeared.

After more than ten years, Zhang Chu returned to the world of Liao Zhai again.

The moment he appeared at the Poison Wolf Mountain, Zhang Chu’s extremely powerful spiritual consciousness directly covered the Poison Wolf Mountain.

At this moment in the Poison Wolf Mountain, there is no demon king, not even any goblins. What there is only is a group of wolves with green eyes.

With no intention of staying here, Zhang Chu directly displayed the lightness skill that Red Queen had deduced after accumulating experience in several worlds.

Although the speed is not as fast as the flying of the Corpse King Banner, nor as fast as the faster-than-sound Immortal Steps of Emperor Shi Tian, ​​it is almost comparable to the speed of sound.

Therefore, when Zhang Chu was moving forward, he could hear sonic booms.

Even the clothes on his body would be completely torn into pieces the moment he moved forward if he did not have the protection of magic power.

At this time, Zhang Chu had no intention of staying here for long, but walked quickly.

He knew very well in his mind that ten or twenty years was just a blink of an eye in the eyes of those who were fighting the demon kings.

Even though the marks on his body had been completely erased, Zhang Chu did not dare to stay here for long.

The speed is comparable to the speed of sound, and it can travel more than a thousand kilometers in an hour.

Therefore, Zhang Chu directly identified a direction. As long as his spiritual sense did not sense the presence of any powerful demons, he galloped for more than half an hour and was nearly a thousand miles away from the Poison Wolf Mountain.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to move forward, but that he can’t move forward.

On a mountain ahead, he actually sensed an extremely powerful demonic aura, the demonic aura of the Jindan realm.

The moment he sensed the demonic energy, Zhang Chu stopped immediately and frowned: With a straight-line distance of 500 kilometers, is this the next demon king's territory?
He had no intention of releasing his spiritual consciousness just now. Instead, after practicing the longevity martial arts, his perception became countless times sharper, and he sensed it.

Therefore, as long as he did not spread his spiritual consciousness and stopped running fast and making sonic booms, he would not be discovered by the demon king on the mountain.

After standing there and thinking for a while, Zhang Chu had no intention of leaving in a hurry. Instead, he walked towards the city not far from the mountains.

But he never forgot that he came to the world of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio to look for classics.

The Demon King exists, and the human settlement is so close to the Demon King, but no danger has occurred. It goes without saying that there must be something strange in the city. Maybe there are ascetics guarding it.

Zhang Chu happened to pass by here, so he decided to take a look.

"Whoosh~"

Zhang Chu waved his sleeves, and a brown horse appeared in front of him. He moved his body and sat on the horse.

"Drive~"

He whipped his horse whip and headed straight for the nearby city.

Traveling on horseback is indeed much slower, but it is also a good camouflage for hanging out in the secular world.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. This is no joke.

In this world where most people travel by horse or donkey, the sudden appearance of a being flying on a sword would probably attract some people's attention in no time.

It’s better to keep a low profile when entering the world of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio again.

Soon, Zhang Chu arrived at the city gate.

After riding his horse and paying the entrance fee honestly, Zhang Chu led the horse into the city.

Not long after he entered the city, he saw a bamboo forest. He immediately stopped in his tracks, with a strange look in his eyes, "Demonic aura?"

In this city where many people gather, there is a faint demonic aura?
However, this evil spirit does not seem to be pure.

Although he had just arrived, Zhang Chu did not intend to care about it. Instead, he led the horse and continued to walk forward until he stopped in front of a restaurant.

After handing the horse to the waiter, Zhang Chu walked directly into the restaurant. The windows on one side of the restaurant faced the bamboo forest next to it.

Not long after he sat down, he heard a melodious flute sound. Zhang Chu subconsciously looked in the direction where the sound came from.

In the crisp bamboo forest, a handsome young man was sitting on the top of a bamboo, playing a bamboo flute in his hand.

"Weird, weird!"

The moment he saw the appearance of the nobleman, a strange look appeared in Zhang Chu's eyes.

The person who was sitting on the bamboo tip had a faint demonic aura about him.

Of course, the demonic energy seemed not to be pure. The most important thing was that Zhang Chu did not feel any turbid air in the demonic energy on his body.

It seemed that he had not killed many people.

"Could it be a kind demon who is kind to others?"

Suddenly, a thought popped into Zhang Chu's mind.

However, before Zhang Chu could think carefully, a voice came over.

"There's a demon~"

An old man with white hair, looking crazy and dressed like a Taoist priest, rushed directly towards the man sitting on the bamboo tip.

Before the man on the bamboo tip could react, the crazy Taoist priest started to smell the man's body.

It seemed as if it was certain that the evil spirit was emanating from that person.

"Weird, weird!"

After seeing this scene, the strange look in Zhang Chu's eyes became even deeper.

This crazy Taoist priest in front of me is really very powerful.

A Taoist priest in the Golden Core Realm is actually crazy. Isn't that weird?

Before Zhang Chu could figure out what was going on, the two of them started fighting.

The people nearby, seeing the two men fighting in the bamboo forest, had no intention of hiding, but instead watched the excitement with great interest.

I don’t know if it’s because ignorance is fearless or because they are too well protected!
These are two Jindan realm beings who are competing with each other. Even if a slight fluctuation of their power leaks out, it will be enough to destroy the city.

However, at this moment, Zhang Chu had to admire their control over their power.

It was so powerful that not a single bit of power was leaked.

The crazy old Taoist priest and the being who was suspected to be a Jindan realm demon king started fighting with the flying swords in their hands.

Two flying swords, one blue and one white, were being controlled by a young man who was suspected to be a great demon in the Jindan realm and a crazy old Taoist priest, and they were constantly entangled.

As if they were in high spirits in the fight, the two of them actually used the sword light splitting technique directly.

The green and white rays were constantly colliding with each other.

The most important thing is that during the collision, there was not a single bit of force leaked out.

After the green light collided with the white light, it was annihilated directly without causing any damage to the outside world.

This scene really shocked Zhang Chu and made him a little envious. He was shocked that the two of them had mastered their power to such an extent, and he was envious that he really couldn't split the sword light.

Not to mention anything else, just the flying sword level is impossible to pass.

He doesn’t have a flying sword!

Sometimes, it has to be said that birth is also part of strength. A demon king and a crazy old Taoist priest, just because they were born in different places, actually easily got what Zhang Chu wanted but couldn't get.

After fighting for a while, it seemed that they couldn't tell who was winning, so they just stopped.

The figure of the crazy old Taoist priest left, and the existence of the great demon in the Jindan realm seemed to have suffered a little loss, and his figure also disappeared.

As for the people who were watching the excitement around, they also dispersed.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Zhang Chu didn't know whether to say that these people were brave or ignorant.

That was a fight between two Jindan realm masters, and they actually dared to get close?
The most important thing is that Zhang Chu is also quite strange.

What's going on here?

The demon king can show up in the city, and the ascetics do not hesitate to fight with the demon king in front of the common people!

After drinking a pot of wine, Zhang Chu stood up and walked towards the place where the crazy Taoist priest had just disappeared.

Even though he is crazy, he still has some common sense and understanding of the things here.

"Tap~tap~tap~"

Zhang Chu had just walked out of the restaurant when he heard the sound of horse hooves. Subconsciously, he looked towards the direction where the sound came from.

This glance interrupted his thoughts directly, and there was a look of surprise and doubt in his eyes under the bamboo hat.

What is going on with this city?

The man who was riding his horse at full speed just now was also a cultivator in the Jindan realm.

During just a few drinks, Zhang Chu actually saw another Jindan realm cultivator.

Is the existence of the Jindan realm so worthless here?
Zhang Chu was actually feeling doubtful.

The people around seemed to know the man riding the horse.

"Layman,"

Therefore, Zhang Chu's heart moved, and he walked to the side, looking at the rather wealthy man standing there, "I wonder who that person who was riding a horse just now was?"

"That's Master Zhong!"

The wealthy man looked at Zhang Chu with confusion, as if he was a little surprised by Zhang Chu's question.

There are only a few well-known gentry in this city. How could the Taoist priest in front of him not know them?
"It seems that this Taoist priest is here for the first time?"

Looking at Zhang Chu's attire, the wealthy man also reacted and said a few more words to Zhang Chu.

"Thank you for clearing up my doubts!"

Zhang Chu bowed slightly, turned around and went back to the restaurant.

He sat in the guest room and narrowed his eyes, his mind full of doubts: A cultivator in the Golden Core Realm is actually in the city, pretending to be a gentleman and a wealthy man?

Could it be that there is something in this city that even Jindan realm cultivators covet?

Otherwise, how could Jindan realm cultivators gather in a city?
Is it even possible to live in peace with the Golden Core Realm Demon King?
Zhang Chu, sitting in the guest room, thought for a while and decided not to rush to find the crazy Taoist priest.

He needs to figure out the situation here before making any plans.

Although his strength is basically invincible in the Jindan realm, with so many Jindan realms gathered here, it would be troublesome if there were any cultivators with high cultivation levels plotting behind the scenes.

He came here to collect resources and improve his strength, not to run around.

Even if you want to run, you have to gain the advantage first!
So, after asking the waiter at the restaurant, he directly found a broker, bought a house in the city, and lived there temporarily.

As for the cost of buying a house?

Zhang Chu didn't care at all.

He may not have much other things, but his gold and silver are truly innumerable.

Zhang Chu bought a house in the south of the city directly and hired a few servants from a middleman, mainly to clean the house.

For the next three to five days, Zhang Chu wandered around the city and bought some books in the bookstores in the city, mainly the local chronicles.

These things are the best way to understand this place.

In the local chronicles, Zhang Chu also vaguely discovered some abnormalities, even some signs of demons, but they were not obvious.

Whenever a demon-like creature appears, a Taoist priest will appear, and then the demon will disappear.

However, there is no such record in the local chronicles of the past two or three decades, as if those Taoists have disappeared and the demons have also vanished.

As Zhang Chu kept wandering around the city, it didn't take too long for him to finally figure out the name of the crazy Taoist priest he met when he first came here, and also the name of the demon who was suspected to be in the Jindan realm who had fought with him.

"Dian Daoist! Tao Zui! Zhong Yunshan! Zhong Suqiu, An Youyu, Hua Guzi"

A lot of information continued to gather in Zhang Chu's mind, and his eyes also flickered, "Xuanzhen Treasure Mirror! Samadhi True Fire!"

"I didn't expect it, it really is fate!"

The so-called Dian Daoist and Zhong Yunshan, two masters of the Jindan realm, were all disciples of the Xuanzhen sect.

However, Zhang Chu obtained a part of the Xuanzhen Treasure Mirror.

I didn’t expect that I would run into them directly when I went to Liao Zhai this time.

Is this the cause and effect?

However, Zhang Chu just thought about these things and didn't care much about them.

What does love and grudges within the sect have to do with him?

What he cared about was the supreme treasure cultivated by the Xuanzhen Sect near this city, a brush similar to the magic brush in the hand of Ma Liang, and another treasure that could reverse life and death.

Now that he knows about this, it’s time for him to take action.

Other things are hard to obtain, but the magic pen is very easy to obtain.

After all, the magic pen is in the hands of a scholar who knows no magic and is even a little stupid.

As for the treasure that can reverse life and death, as long as Zhang Chu looks for it carefully, he will definitely find it.

That place is near the city. Zhang Chu searched it inch by inch with his spiritual sense. He really didn't believe that he wouldn't be able to find it!

The plan was made, and Zhang Chu stood up and walked towards where An Youyu was.
