Within a day, he was defeated by Luo Shifang and Su Chen successively, and the number one seat in the star building was taken away. I don't know how many people secretly watched him make fun of him. Naturally, the monk surnamed Zhuo couldn't lose face, so he went to find Xingzong Rely on the inside and ask for help.
His real name is Zhuo Haoran, and he is a direct descendant of the Zhuo family in Biyulu of Crystal Tianyu. In fact, this Zhuo family is not ranked in the Crystal Tianyu, but a young elder in Xuandian today is They are the younger generation of the Zhuo family.
Tianxuan Hall is equivalent to the Law Enforcement Department, specializing in internal relations. This department has a pivotal position among the disciples of the sect, and can directly influence whether a reserve disciple can officially enter the sect.
No, Zhuo Haoran arrived at the palace of his uncle——Zhuo Tan.
Zhuo Tan had just mediated the conflict between a pair of inner disciples, and at a time when he was physically and mentally exhausted, the appearance of Zhuo Haoran's nephew still made him smile generously.
"Hao Ran, can you find me for anything?"
Zhuo Haoran is just capricious, jealous and narrow-minded, not really stupid, to be able to live on the top floor of the star building for a period of time, he must have something special in himself, just like treating the strong, he has always been respectful and never dared to be arrogant of.
"Uncle, my nephew has something to say to my uncle. If my uncle is fine, can we go to the bedroom to talk about it?"
There were many handymen coming and going in the Elder's Hall, Zhuo Tan agreed.
After arriving at the bedroom, Zhuo Haoran changed his appearance of keeping the etiquette just now, and complained bitterly:
"Uncle, you don't know. My nephew finally sat on the top floor of the star building. Before he had enjoyed much time, he was crushed by two new reserve disciples. You must help your nephew out." This bad breath!"
Hearing this, Zhuo Tan pondered for a moment, and said: "The sect has its rules, and it is definitely not acceptable to drive people away in an open and aboveboard manner. In this case, if people are not pleasing to the eye, then using tricks to order them to violate the rules is not a good idea. Is it done?"
"Rules, what are the rules..." Zhuo Haoran hesitated after thinking about it, "Murder a fellow disciple?"
Zhuo Tan sighed: "It's easy to get clues by doing this kind of thing, but of course it's not possible. Everything you have now is obtained only when your uncle is in the Dianxing Sect. If you implicate your uncle, don't blame your uncle." Ruthless."
The two are uncles and nephews, not father and son. Even though Zhuo Tan showed great love and care for Zhuo Haoran, if he bet on the future of himself and his family, he would not agree.
The latter felt cold all over, knowing that he had accidentally stepped on his uncle's bottom line this time, so he hurriedly said:
"Uncle, you have misunderstood me. What I said just now was questioning and worrying. I didn't really plan to let them take other people's lives. My nephew also knows that his resourcefulness is not as strong as yours. This method must not work." Yes, it's just that my nephew has just turned this idea in his mind, and the rest is...hehe~"
Zhuo Tan said quietly: "Reserve disciples need to be strictly inspected in the sect for many years. During this period, they are not allowed to enter and leave the sect privately, unless there are official documents issued by the elders, and everyone in the accompanying members has the documents. Only under certain circumstances can they go out, otherwise they will all be kicked out of the list of reserve disciples."
Zhuo Haoran rolled his eyes and said, "Do you mean..."
"You said they are new reserve disciples. Since there is no movement before, they have just entered the sect. If they don't understand the rules of the sect, you can ask someone to try it. After all, the difference between reserve disciples and reserve disciples Generally, the little things in the middle will not attract the attention of the sect, as long as no one dies."
If Zhuo Haoran still doesn't understand this point, then he is really stupid.
Fortunately, the latter is still a bit of a smart person at heart, and seeing his eyeballs roll, he has already thought of a way.
"Thank you, Uncle, for your suggestion! This disciple just happens to have a candidate, and I will let him go..."
As for why Zhuo Haoran used tricks to expel Su Chen and the others from the sect?
Naturally, it's because Su Chen and the three are really a great threat to him, as long as these three are around, then he will never have a bright future!
He didn't want to be an ordinary inner disciple, only the higher the final position, he could be favored by Xingjun, accepted as a disciple, and become the best in one fell swoop.
And what he has to do is to get rid of those who may be hindering him.
Then he is still a genius who dominates the reserve disciples.
……
On that side, during the days when Su Chen and Qin Chuyang were cultivating on the top floor of the Star Tower, dozens of monks came to the door with things to curry favor and seek asylum, and among these monks, a large part of them had satirized and ridiculed Su Chen that day And Luo Shifang's.
It seems that even in the Dianxingzong, there is no lack of a group of weak-willed grasshoppers, leaning on whichever side the wind blows, it is best not to offend anyone, but in the end they become a mob.
To put it bluntly, the qualifications of these monks are mostly between the three spiritual roots and the double spiritual roots, and none of them are exceptionally qualified.
The two didn't mean to discriminate, after all, they are also dual spiritual roots, but the minds of the two are very different.
This group of monks can also enter the Dianxing Sect to become reserve disciples because they conform to the sect’s rules for recruiting disciples, that is, those who are under a thousand years old and have reached the stage of transformation into gods, but they don’t need to pass the test of the ascending ladder... I have to sigh with emotion , Health is different.
Sure enough, wherever you go, you have to look at your background.
Su Chen and Qin Chuyang went through all sorts of difficulties and dangers in order to come to the Great World of Chongxiao. They didn't know how many resources they had in hand to meet the requirements for successfully climbing the ladder.
Could it be that Cui Hongyu, Liu Yingshuang, Bing Ling, Zhao Zhen and others are not all qualified?Of course not, if they had changed their backgrounds, they would still be able to make waves. It's a pity that this is the difference between poor students and rich young masters. The former must work hard to achieve the state that the latter takes for granted, even though many of the latter do not have this kind of self-knowledge.
In the end, those genius monks in the upper spirit world who failed to ascend to the Great World of Chongxiao could only sigh "bad luck".
Facing this kind of flattery, Su Chen and Qin Chuyang actually didn't feel cold in their hearts, and even refused. These people's words are not even as powerful as the elders sent by some forces in the upper spirit world, so how can they really impress them.
However, they still warmly greeted people and accepted things. In fact, they completely recorded the actions of this group of reserve disciples and made a long list.
"Phew~ a 3000-year-old Ganoderma lucidum is a good herb, and it's more than enough to please people, but we can't accept bribes, and we still have to return them afterward, troublesome."
Su Chen curled his lips, feeling a little aggrieved when others stuffed him with things, but he couldn't accept them. It didn't meet the profiteer's rule of "defrauding people until there's nothing left in their pants".
Sure enough, talking about conscience costs money.
As soon as the two sent off a monk, the next person couldn't wait to get started.
"Two fellow Taoists, Xia Teng Changqing, came to visit with the invitation card of the Demon Slayer Conference."
Huh?Invitation to the Demon Slayer Conference?This man came up with something unique, which aroused their interest. After all, the monks who came earlier sent back and forth resources such as pills, spirit wine, medicinal materials, metal ores, etc., which were completely nothing new.
Although he didn't know what the purpose of this demon-slaying conference was, Su Chen still greeted people in with a smile.
"It turned out to be Fellow Daoist Teng, and I was disappointed. To be honest, we are newcomers, so we don't know what this demon-slaying conference is about."
The implication is that "even if you don't know what you are doing, you have to accept everything as ordered."
While talking, Su Chen motioned for the other party to sit down on the wooden chair opposite them.
Teng Changqing seemed to be accustomed to Su Chen's "greed", cupped his hands, and said in an admiring tone:
"The Demon Elimination Conference is the biggest event in the Crystal Sky Territory—the Amber Skyland, which is held every 700 years. Anyone who holds an invitation card can participate, and form a three-person team with monks of the same level. , and then fight with other teams for several rounds, compete for the top spot, and obtain treasures."
Hearing this, Su Chen's interest was high.
"Accordingly, this invitation should be very precious, so you want to invite us to be the remaining two teammates and form a three-person team with you to win prizes?"
"No, my cultivation base may be enough, but my strength is not enough. Instead of wasting time by participating in the Demon Elimination Conference, it is better to donate it to those who need it more." Teng Changqing smiled humbly, "Teng is not It is necessary for the two to share a share after winning, but they just don’t want to bury such a good thing.”
Uh huh~ There must be a demon if things go wrong.
Su Chen narrowed his eyes, and casually raised the corners of his lips: "I originally thought that you took a fancy to my beauty and wanted to recommend yourself as a pillow, so it didn't."
"No, no, my appearance is rough, how can I be worthy of recommending a pillow mat, and dirty the eyes of two fellow Taoists." Teng Changqing quickly waved his hands, looking very embarrassed.
However, immediately afterwards Teng Changqing talked all over the place, probably introducing the excellent performance of the monks in the previous demon-slaying conference, but whenever he was asked about some key points, he would talk about him from left to right.
Su Chen propped his chin on the back of his hand, looked at the other party from top to bottom, and said impatiently: "So what do you want from us? Don't you think that we will accept gifts from others in a muddle-headed way? But don’t ask the reason, right? We don’t have the patience to play word games with you, and we don’t have the patience to consider your thoughts. If you have something to say, just let it go. You might as well recommend yourself as a pillow.”
If it is a self-recommended pillow mat, it is very simple, just pack it up and throw it out.
The time Teng Changqing spent here was longer than the previous few people put together. Either the monks in front were not asking for forgiveness, or willing to be younger brothers, or some female nuns who were somewhat confident in their appearance recommended themselves as pillows, even if the purpose was not It's the same, but the process is simple and clear, and there are few muddled things. If you have something to say, let it go quickly.
It's not like the other party, who occupies the latrine and doesn't shit, doesn't know that the people behind are already suffocated?
Seeing Su Chen's displeasure, Teng Changqing immediately shut up, and quickly said:
"If the two fellow daoists are interested, then go and invite fellow daoist Luo that day to form a three-person team together. If they don't, then forget it, and pretend that Teng has never been here before."
Qin Chuyang carefully scanned the date of the demon slaying conference with his spiritual sense, and found that it was a year later.
From Dian Xingzong to Amber Tianlu, according to the speed of the monks of Huashen Dzogchen, it will take almost half a year.
Su Chen and Qin Chuyang almost understood Teng Changqing's behavior of wanting to send out "immediate products" to earn a wave of goodwill.
only……
"I remember that reserve disciples are not allowed to go out casually, right?" Qin Chuyang asked immediately.
"That's right, but I just happened to get a document from an elder, and my name was written on it..."
Su Chen said expressionlessly: "If I remember correctly, every disciple must have a document in his hand, otherwise he will be expelled from the sect. I am very suspicious of your purpose now."
"That's right, the door rules are like this. So I also have your documents here. It's not a problem for us to go out. It's fine to show them when we come back."
Teng Changqing immediately took out three documents, and the names on them were Su Chen, Qin Chuyang and Luo Shifang.
The paperwork does not appear to have been fabricated, and all specifications are correct.
Su Chen twisted the document with his hands, felt the delicate texture of warm jade, and smiled:
"You registered for the three of us in advance, what if we don't want to participate?"
"Since the three of you are unwilling to participate, Teng definitely has no intention of forcing it, and this document is not mandatory. But since Teng hopes to be taken care of by the two in the future, he should naturally do more."
Teng Changqing may have a flattering personality, and that flattering face should not be too vivid, even Su Chen couldn't find the slightest clue from his expression.
Su Chen: "Okay, then what's the use of your documents?"
"This... To be honest, my biological mother's time is short, and I plan to go home. Even though this invitation to the demon slaying conference is precious, it is not one-tenth of my biological mother's."
Teng Changqing squeezed his fist, and his tone was extremely painful, which made it easy for people to feel his sadness.
—Look!There's drama here!
Maybe Teng Changqing has the power to move people deeply, but that side Su Chen doesn't believe a word of the other party.
Want to ask why?It's the feeling.
It just feels unbelievable.
Teng Changqing said a few more short inspirational essays, then hid his face and left in tears. He was still happy when he first entered the door, but after he left, he became like this, and he didn’t know what kind of unfair treatment he had encountered. .
Su Chen and Qin Chuyang received a few more waves of visiting monks, and after taking off the list, they went to the top floor of another star building to look for Luo Shifang, and the other party readily attended the appointment as expected.
But, where they didn't know, Teng Changqing changed his pitiful expression just now, and smiled at Zhuo Haoran.
"You are really ruthless. Taking advantage of the stinky east wind of the Demon Elimination Conference, you want to wipe out your enemies? It is perfect. If you want me to say, isn't he really defeated you? They are the pitiful people who hold such a grudge against you."
Zhuo Haoran responded with a sneer: "Yeah, I'm not a good person. My enemy, what's wrong with wanting to catch them all in one go? But you, you should be more grateful than talking about me here. I will lend you the real document and ask you to issue four fake documents. Otherwise, if you were found out about destroying four competitors in order to enter the sect, you would not be as simple as getting out of the sect Yes. I remember... There is a young genius whom the elders are quite optimistic about?"
Teng Changqing's complexion was dark.
That's right, they are not good birds anyway, so why use these false things.
"I will change my face, hide my name, and delete this memory. In contrast, are my things ready?"
"Here, take it, I don't know this kind of rags, but it's worth your pursuit."
Zhuo Haoran casually threw a certain cloudy ball out.
Teng Changqing's eyes suddenly burst out with a frightening joy, but he quickly suppressed the joy, raised the corners of his mouth, and left the sect without looking back. Never coming back again.
……
half year later.
Su Chen's spirit boat slowly landed in Amber City.
This is a huge city built on the side of a cliff, with numerous pavilions and pavilions, and next to it is an abyss with jagged rocks, which is magnificent and gorgeous. The monks walking on the streets are full of fairy style.
However, when they came to Amber City, the atmosphere here was a little weird.
However, seeing the passing monks covering their faces and walking back and forth in a hurry, it seemed that they were afraid of getting in trouble, even the inns and snack bars on the street announced their suspension of business.
This scene is very different from what Su Chen and Qin Chuyang knew, when a large party is about to be held, there will be a sea of people and it will be very lively.
"This fellow Daoist..."
Su Chen was about to stop a monk to ask about the situation, but the other party avoided him. Before he had time to greet him a second time, the other party disappeared into the corner of the street like flying.
Well, I can't ask anything.
The three of them looked at each other in blank dismay, all very puzzled, and only then did a kind female cultivator come up to remind them.
The other party was covered with a veil, and her figure was shrouded in a robe, making it impossible for people to see her true appearance.
"Three fellow daoists, the demon slaying conference is about to be held in half a year, why are you still parked on the street? Hurry up and find a cave to retreat early, or it will be too late."
Su Chen cupped his hands, wondering: "I hope fellow Taoist will remind you one or two things. The three of us have invitations in our hands. The purpose of coming to Amber City is to participate in the Demon Elimination Conference... It is obvious that demon elimination is a good thing. Dodging like a tiger descending a mountain?"
"Do you have an invitation card in your hand?" The female cultivator's voice rose slightly, "You must have been deceived! Do you know what kind of demon is being eliminated in the Demon Elimination Conference? Of course it is the Demon Cultivator from the Ten Thousand Demon League! This Demon Elimination Conference Once in battle, it is life and death."
Su Chen: "Isn't it very common to live or die?"
Zongmen Dabi doesn't care about life or death, who said anything?Furthermore, it is not the evil demon cultivators who fight in the Zongmen Dabi, but the righteous demon cultivators and disciples of the righteous way.
"It seems that you really don't know anything."
The female cultivator patiently explained to the three of them: "The Demon Elimination Conference, also known as the 'Demon Sacrifice Conference', is usually dominated by the evil cultivators from the Ten Thousand Demons League. The reason is that when participating in the conference , the monks must enter the secret realm and carry out a massacre. However, this conference is held by the monks of the Ten Thousand Demon League. Every time our righteous disciples suffer heavy casualties. Therefore, this invitation is usually issued to the guilty People, let them confront the evil cultivators, if they win, their crimes will be offset, and if they lose, their souls will be scattered, and even worse, they will be tortured for thousands of years."
"That's not right, isn't the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance stationed in Daheitian? How could they come to my crystal sky to do anything wrong?" Su Chen frowned.
"This is something you don't know, fellow Taoist." The female cultivator said: "There are four major celestial lands in each celestial domain, but in fact, the three major celestial lands are not my own territory, but are controlled by other celestial domains. The most powerful sect is occupied by the three great immortal sects and one large demon sect. Among them, the Wanmo League is extremely powerful despite its chaos. The city is the territory of the Ten Thousand Devils, and now, Amber City is only allowed to enter and not to exit."
Qin Chuyang: "Why don't fellow Taoists leave here, but stay here instead?"
"I want to leave, but I am a citizen of Amber City. If I leave Amber City at this time, I will no longer be able to enjoy the benefits of the city. Even though Amber City is the best city to join, but for It is really difficult for us casual cultivators. The days of casual cultivators are too difficult, and the environment in Amber City is still good on weekdays. Although it is a bit noisy, as long as you protect yourself, it is better than wandering outside. "
The female cultivator sighed with emotion, and then told Su Chen and the three to be careful. Once someone came to Amber City in a team and one of them brought an invitation card, the three of them would be automatically bound as a team, and they could no longer be combined into a team. Send invitations to others.At present, many monks from the Ten Thousand Demon League have come in teams. Even if the three of them did nothing, good looks are the original sin.
So the best way is to hide so that no one can see it.
No matter how difficult and domineering the monks of the Wanmomeng, they must abide by the bottom line of Amber City, and must not break into other monks' private caves, mansions or small courtyards without permission.
As for the rules of fighting on the street, they have been relaxed. As long as you don't do it too obviously and ostentatiously, then it is still within the scope of the rules.
"Please wait a moment, fellow Taoist." Su Chen asked, "The minimum fairness should be there, right? Cultivators of different realms will be assigned to different secret realms."
Female nun: "Well, the rules are like this."
"That's really thankful, fellow daoist." Su Chen cupped his hands.
The female cultivator hurried away, leaving Su Chen and the three of them speechless.
——Well, it looks like you were cheated?
Oh, I was really cheated.
"However, it's quite a challenge." Su Chen snorted and didn't think he was afraid, "It seems that Fellow Daoist Teng really didn't intend to hang out in the sect, so he made this move. As for him It is not difficult to guess who is behind him, a wave of petty vendettas has been remembered, and he will not be able to eat and walk around when the time comes."
Luo Shifang clashed his fists, and a burst of silver light suddenly burst out, with a fierce aura: "Oh, it must be the one who broke the clock by me."
"Ah Chen, Fellow Daoist Luo, there is still half a year before the Demon Slayer Conference is held, we can't stay on the street all the time, we might as well rent two caves." Qin Chuyang suggested.
This suggestion was quickly endorsed by the other two.
……
On the other hand, Teng Changqing who left the sect did undergo a new look, but the place he went to was also Amber City.
It's just that he didn't come to participate in the Demon Elimination Conference, but a spy placed by the Ten Thousand Demon League in the Star Sect.
His real name is Zhuo Haoran, and he is a direct descendant of the Zhuo family in Biyulu of Crystal Tianyu. In fact, this Zhuo family is not ranked in the Crystal Tianyu, but a young elder in Xuandian today is They are the younger generation of the Zhuo family.

It's not like the other party, who occupies the latrine and doesn't shit, doesn't know that the people behind are already suffocated?
Seeing Su Chen's displeasure, Teng Changqing immediately shut up, and quickly said:
"If the two fellow daoists are interested, then go and invite fellow daoist Luo that day to form a three-person team together. If they don't, then forget it, and pretend that Teng has never been here before."
Qin Chuyang carefully scanned the date of the demon slaying conference with his spiritual sense, and found that it was a year later.
From Dian Xingzong to Amber Tianlu, according to the speed of the monks of Huashen Dzogchen, it will take almost half a year.
Su Chen and Qin Chuyang almost understood Teng Changqing's behavior of wanting to send out "immediate products" to earn a wave of goodwill.
only……
"I remember that reserve disciples are not allowed to go out casually, right?" Qin Chuyang asked immediately.
"That's right, but I just happened to get a document from an elder, and my name was written on it..."
Su Chen said expressionlessly: "If I remember correctly, every disciple must have a document in his hand, otherwise he will be expelled from the sect. I am very suspicious of your purpose now."
"That's right, the door rules are like this. So I also have your documents here. It's not a problem for us to go out. It's fine to show them when we come back."
Teng Changqing immediately took out three documents, and the names on them were Su Chen, Qin Chuyang and Luo Shifang.
The paperwork does not appear to have been fabricated, and all specifications are correct.
Su Chen twisted the document with his hands, felt the delicate texture of warm jade, and smiled:
"You registered for the three of us in advance, what if we don't want to participate?"
"Since the three of you are unwilling to participate, Teng definitely has no intention of forcing it, and this document is not mandatory. But since Teng hopes to be taken care of by the two in the future, he should naturally do more."
Teng Changqing may have a flattering personality, and that flattering face should not be too vivid, even Su Chen couldn't find the slightest clue from his expression.
Su Chen: "Okay, then what's the use of your documents?"
"This... To be honest, my biological mother's time is short, and I plan to go home. Even though this invitation to the demon slaying conference is precious, it is not one-tenth of my biological mother's."
Teng Changqing squeezed his fist, and his tone was extremely painful, which made it easy for people to feel his sadness.
—Look!There's drama here!
Maybe Teng Changqing has the power to move people deeply, but that side Su Chen doesn't believe a word of the other party.
Want to ask why?It's the feeling.
It just feels unbelievable.
Teng Changqing said a few more short inspirational essays, then hid his face and left in tears. He was still happy when he first entered the door, but after he left, he became like this, and he didn’t know what kind of unfair treatment he had encountered. .
Su Chen and Qin Chuyang received a few more waves of visiting monks, and after taking off the list, they went to the top floor of another star building to look for Luo Shifang, and the other party readily attended the appointment as expected.
But, where they didn't know, Teng Changqing changed his pitiful expression just now, and smiled at Zhuo Haoran.
"You are really ruthless. Taking advantage of the stinky east wind of the Demon Elimination Conference, you want to wipe out your enemies? It is perfect. If you want me to say, isn't he really defeated you? They are the pitiful people who hold such a grudge against you."
Zhuo Haoran responded with a sneer: "Yeah, I'm not a good person. My enemy, what's wrong with wanting to catch them all in one go? But you, you should be more grateful than talking about me here. I will lend you the real document and ask you to issue four fake documents. Otherwise, if you were found out about destroying four competitors in order to enter the sect, you would not be as simple as getting out of the sect Yes. I remember... There is a young genius whom the elders are quite optimistic about?"
Teng Changqing's complexion was dark.
That's right, they are not good birds anyway, so why use these false things.
"I will change my face, hide my name, and delete this memory. In contrast, are my things ready?"
"Here, take it, I don't know this kind of rags, but it's worth your pursuit."
Zhuo Haoran casually threw a certain cloudy ball out.
Teng Changqing's eyes suddenly burst out with a frightening joy, but he quickly suppressed the joy, raised the corners of his mouth, and left the sect without looking back. Never coming back again.
……
half year later.
Su Chen's spirit boat slowly landed in Amber City.
This is a huge city built on the side of a cliff, with numerous pavilions and pavilions, and next to it is an abyss with jagged rocks, which is magnificent and gorgeous. The monks walking on the streets are full of fairy style.
However, when they came to Amber City, the atmosphere here was a little weird.
However, seeing the passing monks covering their faces and walking back and forth in a hurry, it seemed that they were afraid of getting in trouble, even the inns and snack bars on the street announced their suspension of business.
This scene is very different from what Su Chen and Qin Chuyang knew, when a large party is about to be held, there will be a sea of people and it will be very lively.
"This fellow Daoist..."
Su Chen was about to stop a monk to ask about the situation, but the other party avoided him. Before he had time to greet him a second time, the other party disappeared into the corner of the street like flying.
Well, I can't ask anything.
The three of them looked at each other in blank dismay, all very puzzled, and only then did a kind female cultivator come up to remind them.
The other party was covered with a veil, and her figure was shrouded in a robe, making it impossible for people to see her true appearance.
"Three fellow daoists, the demon slaying conference is about to be held in half a year, why are you still parked on the street? Hurry up and find a cave to retreat early, or it will be too late."
Su Chen cupped his hands, wondering: "I hope fellow Taoist will remind you one or two things. The three of us have invitations in our hands. The purpose of coming to Amber City is to participate in the Demon Elimination Conference... It is obvious that demon elimination is a good thing. Dodging like a tiger descending a mountain?"
"Do you have an invitation card in your hand?" The female cultivator's voice rose slightly, "You must have been deceived! Do you know what kind of demon is being eliminated in the Demon Elimination Conference? Of course it is the Demon Cultivator from the Ten Thousand Demon League! This Demon Elimination Conference Once in battle, it is life and death."
Su Chen: "Isn't it very common to live or die?"
Zongmen Dabi doesn't care about life or death, who said anything?Furthermore, it is not the evil demon cultivators who fight in the Zongmen Dabi, but the righteous demon cultivators and disciples of the righteous way.
"It seems that you really don't know anything."
The female cultivator patiently explained to the three of them: "The Demon Elimination Conference, also known as the 'Demon Sacrifice Conference', is usually dominated by the evil cultivators from the Ten Thousand Demons League. The reason is that when participating in the conference , the monks must enter the secret realm and carry out a massacre. However, this conference is held by the monks of the Ten Thousand Demon League. Every time our righteous disciples suffer heavy casualties. Therefore, this invitation is usually issued to the guilty People, let them confront the evil cultivators, if they win, their crimes will be offset, and if they lose, their souls will be scattered, and even worse, they will be tortured for thousands of years."
"That's not right, isn't the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance stationed in Daheitian? How could they come to my crystal sky to do anything wrong?" Su Chen frowned.
"This is something you don't know, fellow Taoist." The female cultivator said: "There are four major celestial lands in each celestial domain, but in fact, the three major celestial lands are not my own territory, but are controlled by other celestial domains. The most powerful sect is occupied by the three great immortal sects and one large demon sect. Among them, the Wanmo League is extremely powerful despite its chaos. The city is the territory of the Ten Thousand Devils, and now, Amber City is only allowed to enter and not to exit."
Qin Chuyang: "Why don't fellow Taoists leave here, but stay here instead?"
"I want to leave, but I am a citizen of Amber City. If I leave Amber City at this time, I will no longer be able to enjoy the benefits of the city. Even though Amber City is the best city to join, but for It is really difficult for us casual cultivators. The days of casual cultivators are too difficult, and the environment in Amber City is still good on weekdays. Although it is a bit noisy, as long as you protect yourself, it is better than wandering outside. "
The female cultivator sighed with emotion, and then told Su Chen and the three to be careful. Once someone came to Amber City in a team and one of them brought an invitation card, the three of them would be automatically bound as a team, and they could no longer be combined into a team. Send invitations to others.At present, many monks from the Ten Thousand Demon League have come in teams. Even if the three of them did nothing, good looks are the original sin.
So the best way is to hide so that no one can see it.
No matter how difficult and domineering the monks of the Wanmomeng, they must abide by the bottom line of Amber City, and must not break into other monks' private caves, mansions or small courtyards without permission.
As for the rules of fighting on the street, they have been relaxed. As long as you don't do it too obviously and ostentatiously, then it is still within the scope of the rules.
"Please wait a moment, fellow Taoist." Su Chen asked, "The minimum fairness should be there, right? Cultivators of different realms will be assigned to different secret realms."
Female nun: "Well, the rules are like this."
"That's really thankful, fellow daoist." Su Chen cupped his hands.
The female cultivator hurried away, leaving Su Chen and the three of them speechless.
——Well, it looks like you were cheated?
Oh, I was really cheated.
"However, it's quite a challenge." Su Chen snorted and didn't think he was afraid, "It seems that Fellow Daoist Teng really didn't intend to hang out in the sect, so he made this move. As for him It is not difficult to guess who is behind him, a wave of petty vendettas has been remembered, and he will not be able to eat and walk around when the time comes."
Luo Shifang clashed his fists, and a burst of silver light suddenly burst out, with a fierce aura: "Oh, it must be the one who broke the clock by me."
"Ah Chen, Fellow Daoist Luo, there is still half a year before the Demon Slayer Conference is held, we can't stay on the street all the time, we might as well rent two caves." Qin Chuyang suggested.
This suggestion was quickly endorsed by the other two.
……
On the other hand, Teng Changqing who left the sect did undergo a new look, but the place he went to was also Amber City.
It's just that he didn't come to participate in the Demon Elimination Conference, but a spy placed by the Ten Thousand Demon League in the Star Sect.
