Chapter 239 Cangwu Realm

The two chatted for a short while before continuing to draw talismans.

Until a loud bell sounded.

Jiang He followed Sun Li to the martial arts training ground in Yunxi Sect.

Except for a group of outer disciples, in the center of the martial arts field.

There are also hundreds of inner disciples and true disciples of the Yunxi Sect.

"Hey, weren't we supposed to go and observe the maintenance of the sacred tree this time? Why are there still true disciples?"

Jiang He couldn't help but ask Xiang Sun Li.

Sun Li raised his eyebrows, as if he didn't expect Jiang He didn't even know this.

Considering that he came from Zezhou, I understood.

He explained: "There is a secret realm inside the sacred tree, called the Cangwu Realm. Once the secret realm is opened, it is very expensive. It requires thousands of top-grade spirit stones alone. It is usually opened once every two years for disciples to practice."

"We will take this opportunity to follow them into the sacred tree. But don't worry, we will only be active on the periphery and there will be no danger."

Jiang He suddenly realized that this was the secret trial that was common in novels.

It is actually mentioned in the original text.

However, he did not connect the disciple trials with the maintenance of the secret realm.

Thinking of this, Jiang He couldn't help but remember that Xiao An had said before that he would enter the secret realm a few days ago, and even invited Yuan Xia.

The secret realm consumes a lot of energy to open, so it was opened twice.

Just the spirit stones alone, wouldn’t it be at least two thousand top-grade spirit stones?

Yunxi Sect was really willing to do anything to please Yuan Xia.

After thinking about it, Jiang He carefully looked at the true disciples of Yunxi Sect.

There are seven of them whose cultivation is in the foundation-building stage, and most of them are in the early stage of foundation-building.

With the cultivation level at the foundation-building stage, one can already become an elder in Wuya Sect.

This is the strength of the disciples of Yunxi Sect after a round of purge.

But speaking of it, the Yunxi Sect is already one of the top three forces in Zhuming Domain.

It is much stronger than the Xuanming Sect.

Otherwise, the sacred tree cannot be protected.

These disciples looked young, and three of them had green hair.

All of them are from the Chu family.

The most eye-catching one is the girl with green hair.

Born with a beautiful and fair complexion, elegant and dignified.

But between her thin eyebrows and bright eyes, there was a pent-up anger.

He was talking softly to the Bifa Zhenchuan beside him.

"This is the daughter of the previous sect master, Chu Ke. Coincidentally, she was given to the Son of Good Law by the sect master."

Sun Li's words were tinged with a hint of sneer, and it was obvious that he was disgusted by the sect leader's mean behavior, betraying his mentor who adopted him and giving his mentor's offspring to his enemies.

He had been paying attention to Jiang He's expression, and whispered,

"Fortunately, the Saint was kindhearted and released Chu Ke, and asked the Sect Master to take good care of her. As for her brother, it is said that he died on the first day he was given to Saint Yuehua."

Jiang He nodded with relief:
"That's true. She is kind-hearted and would never kill people indiscriminately. Naturally, she would not be merciful."

He felt a little uneasy in his heart, as there must be some hidden reason behind Chu Ke's appearance here.

In the original text, the old sect leader's junior brother was originally using secret means.

Chu Ke's brother and sister were rescued by Li Dai Tao.

But unexpectedly, Feng Yi quietly replaced Chu Lu and cut off contact midway, leaving the junior brother with only Brother Chu Lu.

Afterwards, Yuan Xia probably did not kill to silence the witness.

Chu Ke, who was imprisoned by Feng Yi, was released and returned.

But it also resulted in Chu Ke still being imprisoned.

"quiet!"

The red-robed old man came late and snorted coldly at the disciples.

"Four years ago, our sect closed the Cangwu Realm due to unrest, which delayed the disciples' cultivation. Now that order has been restored within the sect, it is time to reopen the Cangwu Realm. This competition will also decide the long-vacant position of the chief."

"In addition, the Holy Son of the Supreme Sect will personally supervise your trials. If you excel, you will have the opportunity to join the Divine Teachings."

As soon as these words were spoken, all the disciples were shocked.

Some people had hidden disgust in their eyes, while more people had fanaticism in their eyes.

If one can enroll in the Divine Inspiration Sect, he can escape from the status of a disciple of a defeated sect.

What's more, the power of the Shengan Sect is far greater than that of the Yunxi Sect.

The Shanfa Hall alone was superior to the Yunxi Sect in its heyday.

"Well, Junior Sister Chu, you have to be more attentive in this Cangwu Realm competition. The Holy Son values ​​you."

The red-robed old man spoke to the green-haired girl in a friendly tone.

An old man calls a young girl "Junior Sister".

This is because cultivators have a long lifespan. Chu Ke’s father was the former leader of the Yunxi Sect, and he had reached the Jindan stage of cultivation.

He lived for more than four hundred years before his death.

When he was 200 years old, he adopted the old man in red robe.

Chu Ke’s face turned slightly pale, and he responded in a low voice.

The red-robed old man nodded with satisfaction, hiding the viciousness in his eyes, and finally flicked his sleeves and said:

"Dear disciples, why don't you follow our sect master to worship the sacred tree!"

……

The Yunxi Sacred Tree comes from the ancient sect Cangwu Sect, originally named Cangwu.

There is a small world inside the sacred tree. Because the sacred tree devours the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth, the small world inside the tree has the effect of banishing spirits.

Isolate the spiritual energy of heaven and earth outside the tree.

Even if a Jindan Zhenren falls into the Cangwu Realm, he cannot connect with heaven and earth and obtain spiritual energy.

Greatly suppress combat power.

Not to mention ordinary foundation-building cultivators, their cultivation will be directly suppressed to the perfection of Qi training.

Even though the cultivation level was suppressed, the area of ​​the Cangwu Realm was extremely vast.

There are still many relics left by the Cangwu Sect.

The ancestors of the Yunxi Sect once had a headache about exploring the Cangwu Realm.

After all, it is a small world of an ancient sect, so it must be extremely dangerous.

After practicing hard to reach the Golden Core Stage, if he died in the Cangwu Realm because of suppressing his cultivation, wouldn’t that be a huge loss?

So he thought, since it would suppress cultivation, why not let the disciples practice in the Cangwu Realm.

Anyway
There are many disciples, and if one batch dies, another batch will emerge.

Even if you are lucky enough to obtain a precious treasure from the Cangwu Realm, it is impossible for you to keep it for yourself when you come out in public.

"It's strange."

After Sun Li finished speaking, he looked puzzled.
"In the past, the ancestors of the Yunxi Sect once said that in order to avoid a single family dominating, they would not snatch the resources of the disciples. They would not allow the descendants of the Chu family to participate in the Cangwu Trial. However, this year, they broke the precedent."

They, a group of outer disciples, did not follow the true disciples and directly entered the Cangwu Realm.

Instead, they observe and maintain the sacred tree from outside.

After that, it will take two days before you can enter the Cangwu Realm, but you are only limited to the outer periphery of the Cangwu Realm.

Jiang He raised his eyes and was shocked.

It is worthy of being called a sacred tree. Its canopy covers the sky and the clouds, and can be described as a blue ocean rippling in the sky.

Judging from the trunk, it would take a hundred people to hug it.

The moment the Cangwu Realm was opened, hundreds of formations around it roared at the same time.

The dense runes almost filled the sky and earth.

No wonder such a complicated formation requires a large number of monks to maintain it.

The old man in red robe was leading his disciples through a curtain of light and into the interior of the sacred tree.

As for the other outer disciples, there are more than a thousand of them.

They are divided into array masters, talisman masters, spirit plant masters, etc. Each follows the corresponding deacon and goes to the corresponding realm.

Jiang He withdrew his gaze and glanced at the sky.

I heard that Yuan Xia's palace was nearby, and the old man in red robes also said that she would be there to supervise today.

Why can't I see her?

After not seeing each other for a few days, Jiang He felt a little bit nostalgic and replied:
"After all, the head of the family has changed. Although the leader of the Yunxi Sect is surnamed Chu, he is not a member of the Chu family. The previous rules are no longer valid."

"Humph, this Cangwu Realm is not a blessed place."

Suddenly, someone said coldly at the side.

The young man had an ordinary face, a slightly pale complexion and a weak voice.

He was smiling with disdain.

Sun Li's expression changed, and he hurriedly whispered:
"Fellow Daoist, be careful with your words. There are deacons everywhere now. How dare you slander them in front of them?"

The young man said calmly:
"With all this noise, no one can discover our private conversation."

He suddenly turned his gaze to Jiang He, frowned and asked:
"Are you the disciple who saved the Holy Son's beloved pet?"

This person was actually coming for me?

The previous incident happened in public, Jiang He did not intend to veto it, and nodded in response:

"That's right, but I didn't communicate with the Holy Son afterwards. If you have any plans, you've found the wrong person."

Sun Li on the side also echoed:
"What kind of person is the Holy Son? How could he remember the kindness of a small person like me?"

The young man's eyes were full of brilliance, and he said confidently:

"Oh, there's no need to hide it. I know that you think the Holy Son is a demonic witch who will not remember favors and does whatever she wants."

Oh?
Is this a meeting with Yuan Xia’s fanboy, and is he going to speak for her?

Jiang He paused slightly and couldn't help feeling a little happy.

But the young man added:

"That is indeed the case, but the Holy Son has almost no friends or acquaintances. The only one, Xiao An, has a mediocre attitude. So, the only beloved pet who can speak to him must be of a very high status."

"No matter how vicious she is, she will definitely remember you in her heart."

The young man was confident and completed the task in one go.

Jiang He and the old Taoist looked at each other.

Just at this time, the true disciples and inner disciples entered the Cangwu Realm.

The old man in red robe was still waiting respectfully there, welcoming the black-haired girl who arrived last.

After not seeing each other for a few days, Yuan Xia, who was always gentle and graceful, inexplicably had a cold and stern aura about her.

Her jade-like face is covered with frost, and her eyes are clear and calm.

As soon as one of the disciples appeared, nearly a thousand disciples around her couldn't help but secretly look at her.

The girl's expression became even colder and she slightly turned sideways to avoid everyone's gaze.

"Tsk, this Saint Son is just as aloof as always, not even looking at his disciples. He's clearly here to urge us, so we should at least say a few nice words."

The young man whispered,
"He is just pretending to be pure and innocent, but in fact he is just a bitch. Who knows how many concubines he has, such as Xiao An. If he is not given some benefits, how can he be so humble as to be his mistress?"

Jiang He knew that Yuan Xia was only nervous because there were too many people.

Hearing this, he said coldly:

"Be careful with your words! As a man, why do you have to gossip about others? You come to talk about others for no reason, so get out of here right now."

"you!"

The young man's expression changed slightly, and a hint of anger flashed across his eyes.

Since he was a child, Chen Ge has always been a mortal who kneels on the ground to show his honor whenever he wants to get close to someone.

He clenched his palms and tried to suppress his laughter:
"I'm sorry. I thought you were casual cultivators, so we should have something in common. After all, who among the casual cultivators in Zhu Mingyu doesn't hate the Divine Sense Religion? In private, there are many who say more foul things than me."

Sun Li said suspiciously:
"Even so, you are too brave, fellow Taoist?"

Chen Ge smiled slightly and said nonchalantly:

"I was young and hot-tempered, and I spoke my mind. Even if I was framed for it, I deserved it."

Jiang He was too lazy to pay attention to him.

He continued to look at the black-haired girl in the distance and sighed secretly.

Once the secret realm is opened, we won't be able to see each other for several days.
Then he set his eyes on the young man in front of him.

Quietly checking his breath.

This person is obviously hostile to Yuan Xia, and feels fearless.

But no matter how hard Jiang He tried, he couldn't find any flaws.

Instead, the young man raised his eyebrows and said with a smile:
"What are you doing, fellow Daoist? Don't you know that spying on others in the cultivation world is a taboo? Since your ability is limited, don't bother with it. I won't bother with you."

Jiang He remained calm and said calmly:

"It's inevitable that people will be suspicious and worry that you are a member of the Qingyang Immortal Sect. Let me, a casual cultivator, be involved in your dispute."

"You're kidding. Wasn't the Saint busy clearing out the Immortal Sect's people a few days ago? He hunted them all down, especially the cultivator who took away the formation openly. He was killed on the spot. The rest of them were running for their lives, and they didn't even have time to escape."

The young man spread his hands and laughed out loud as if he had heard a joke.

"What are you laughing at? Why don't you go to work?"

An obese butler saw a few people chatting.

shouted angrily.

He slapped the young man on the back of his head with his backhand.

The blow caused his head to tilt, and the smile on his face froze.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

His face twitched constantly as he tried to suppress his anger.

He looked at the fat deacon deeply and memorized his face.

"Hey, you're still staring at your grandfather? How come you, the casual disciples, can't remember your own identities?"

The fat deacon felt a surge of anger in his heart and slapped Chen Ge again.

Chen Ge stiffened his neck and took it forcefully, with a red and swollen slap mark immediately appearing on his face.

Seeing this, the fat deacon was willing to let him go.

After giving a few instructions, he left.

But those eyes would glance at Chen Ge from time to time.

Chen Ge no longer dared to come forward and went back to where he should go.

Jiang He took a look. He was a formation master and was repairing the formation. His technique was very skillful and there was no flaw to be found.

……

"This person is a little strange."

Seeing the deacon heading towards the formation master's territory and staring at Chen Ge, Sun Li dared to speak in a low voice.

"Um"

Jiang He's hands kept moving, adding talismans that were easier to match to the talisman formation.

Thinking secretly.

In the original text, there was indeed a twist in this trial.

The incident may have been caused by Lin Chi.

After he entered the Cangwu Realm, although he suppressed his cultivation, he was like a fish in water because of his strong physique.

Coincidentally, I also learned a lot of secrets of the Cangwu world from the old man who guards the Sutra Repository.

In the Cangwu Realm, many treasures were taken away, even causing turmoil in the small world.

Until finally, the restrictions left by the Cangwu Sect were triggered, causing the formation around the sacred tree to collapse.

The sacred tree was already old and dilapidated. After this incident, the Cangwu world was destroyed and the sacred tree collapsed.

Lin Chi took advantage of the chaos to seize the tree heart, causing the Yunxi Sect to fall into chaos and eventually decline and perish.

but
Now that Lin Chi is dead, this kind of thing shouldn't happen again, right?
Jiang He's brows were solemn. According to his plan, he wanted to enter the sacred tree in some time, avoid the disciples of Yunxi Sect, find a chance to escape, and follow the path that Lin Chi had taken to seize the heart of the tree.

"That person seems to have a kind of arrogance in his bones. If I didn't know it was impossible, I would really suspect that he was a member of the Qingyang Immortal Sect."

Sun Li shook his head and said,
"The remaining elders of Yunxi Sect should have united with Qingyang Immortal Sect. Otherwise, the disciples of Qingyang Immortal Sect would never have been able to master the mountain protection formation some time ago."

It was as if a bolt from the blue struck Jiang He's mind.

Yuan Xia is in danger!
