Chapter 427 I Am the Great Elder

The Shadow-Eating Sect is located on a fifth-order spiritual vein.

After entering the practice room of the great elder Lu Ying, Chen Luo realized the difference between the fifth-order spiritual vein and the fourth-order spiritual vein. In the world of immortal cultivation, the fifth order corresponds to the state of transformation. Being in the fifth-order spiritual vein, Chen Luo clearly felt that his cultivation speed had increased by dozens of times compared to before. Not only that, there was also something in the spiritual energy that was not available in the lower world. This power affected every immortal cultivator and made them stronger.

"Elder, this is what you want."

A disciple of the Shadow-Eating Sect appeared outside the practice room trembling with fear.

He held a black jade slip in his hand, which was the "recent situation of the sect" that Chen Luo had asked for before.

"Put it at the door."

Chen Luo raised his eyelids and said in a cold tone.

His demeanor and behavior were exactly the same as those of the former elder Lu Ying, which made the disciple feel relieved. They were not afraid of Elder Lu Ying killing people, but they were afraid that he would be replaced by some dangerous existence. There was a precedent for this in the world of immortal cultivation. Some evil cultivators who practiced special skills would transform themselves into other people, sneak into their residences, and kill all the relatives of the other party in order to collect some special emotional power.

"Yes."

The disciple outside the door heard this and immediately put the jade slip in his hand at the door and retreated quietly. The whole process was cautious, as if he was afraid of angering the elder inside.

After the disciples left, Chen Luo spread his consciousness and made sure that there was no one else around, then he raised his hand and took the jade slip in his hand.

The Shadow Eater Sect was not weak.

There were a total of nine Yuanying-level elders in the sect. The elder Lu Ying was a strong man in the late Yuanying stage. In addition to him, there were eight others. Among these eight people, three were killed by Chen Luo in the cave gourd. Counting the elder Lu Ying, four elders of the Shadow Eater Sect had died in his hands.

If the Sect Master finds out about this after coming out of retreat, he will definitely crush him to dust.

So Chen Luo will never meet the Sect Master, let alone wait until the Sect Master comes out of retreat.

His plan is to stay in the Shiying Sect for a while and use the Shiying Sect's reputation as much as possible to gain benefits for himself.

The identity of the Great Elder Lu Ying is very useful. When the Sect Master does not show up, he can make money boldly! When the Sect Master comes out, the vest of "Elder Lu Ying" will also disappear, leaving the Shiying Sect in a mess. After coming out of retreat, the Sect Master will definitely put all the accounts on "Elder Lu Ying".

In this way, the pressure on himself can be reduced.

The jade slip lit up, and the information inside was instantly read by Chen Luo.

'The shadow stone vein is exhausted, and a new source of ore must be found within 20 years. '

'Ten days ago, Huangsha Ridge moved abnormally, and the only son of the Huangsha Sect Master died tragically. Elder Huangsha came to the sect to investigate, but was repelled by Elder Kuang. ’

‘A spatial crack appeared in the Yin Gui Gorge, suspected to be the entrance to the tomb of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor.’

There was a lot of information, and Chen Luo found some of the content that interested him.

The first point is the cultivation resources of the Shadow Eater Sect.

Different from the spirit stones and spirit marrow used by the immortal cultivators in the lower realm, the resources used by the Shadow Eater Sect’s disciples to practice are ‘shadow stones’. This ore contains the power that the ‘shadow’ can absorb, which can increase the speed of the Shadow Eater Sect’s disciples’ practice. The same is true for other sects. The resources used by each immortal cultivation sect are different.

The inheritance of the spirit transformation in the upper realm is different from what the seven ancestors of Qionghua pursued.

The upper realm has its own way of breakthrough. This method does not increase life span, but the strength is not affected after the breakthrough, far exceeding the Nascent Soul Realm.

The Shadow Eater Sect Master took this path.

The second point is other sects.

Unlike what Chen Luo had guessed before, the upper realm is indeed divided, it is like a boundary island floating in the sky.

In the ancient immortal scroll.

Thousands of islands floating in the sky, surrounded by white clouds, are a portrayal of the upper realm.

Strictly speaking, this floating island cannot be considered a world. In Chen Luo's opinion, these floating fairy islands all belong to one world. A vast and boundless world, and the Shadow Eater Sect is just one of them.

The real core of the upper world, in Chen Luo's opinion, should be the fairy palace he saw when he crossed the space channel. There were several breaths in it that left a deep impression on him.

The third point is the entrance to the tomb of the Evergreen Fairy Emperor.

In the upper world, there are a lot of news related to the tomb of the Evergreen Fairy Emperor. Almost every sect has several or even dozens of related news.

It is hard to imagine how many worlds Brother Changqing dug through when he built the tomb.

"This Huangsha Sect can be used. With such an arrogant attitude, it can be seen that they have ideas about the Shadow Eater Sect."

An idea arose in his mind.

No matter whether they had it before, since the "Great Elder" noticed it, it really had it. Afterwards, they might even rob the Shadow Eater Sect's things, and they need to find some "evidence" to prove it.

Putting the jade slip aside, Chen Luo got up and walked out of the secret room.

He didn't go to the Shadow Eater Sect to use the training room. The Shadow Eater Sect was a transit point, a springboard for him to understand the upper world.

"Take me to the Transmission Pavilion."

He glanced at the two disciples guarding the gate and his eyes fell on one of them.

"Ah?"

The gatekeeper was stunned for a moment, not understanding what the elder was going to do.

Why did he need them to lead the way to the Transmission Pavilion.

"What are you standing there for?"

Chen Luo's tone was a little impatient. The incomplete memory of Elder Lu Ying that he read did not contain any memory of the Shadow-Eating Sect. He did not know where the Transmission Pavilion was, but this trouble was naturally not difficult for him. He could just grab a strong man to lead the way. As the elder, he would not explain to these disciples.

The Sect Master had not come out of retreat, so the elder was the boss!

Does the boss need to explain what he did?

"Yes."

The disciple who was named quickly came to his senses, turned around and walked to the front, and began to lead the way.

In just a moment, the two arrived at the entrance of the Transmission Pavilion.

The style of the Shadow-Eating Sect was obviously not a decent sect. The Transmission Pavilion was actually a dark cave. When Chen Luo and the leading disciple walked to the entrance of the cave, a white-haired old man was standing at the door. It looked like he was waiting for him here.

This person's cultivation was not weak. Chen Luo sensed it a little and sensed the same realm fluctuation from him.

Yuanying cultivator!

Or the middle stage of Yuanying.

"Second elder."

The leading disciple bowed his head and greeted the man in front of him respectfully when he saw him.

The second elder ignored the disciple beside him. His eyes fell on Chen Luo, and he scanned him up and down. After a long while, he spoke.

"I heard that you went to the lower world. How come you came back so soon?"

Second elder?

What's the name of this old man?

Chen Luo thought for a moment, but he didn't find the name of this person in the fragments of Lu Ying's obsession.

There is no name at all, and it's just a small fish at first glance.

Chen Luo was too lazy to try to recall again, and directly called Lu Ying's brain. The bad temper in his memory suddenly came to his mind.

"When will it be your turn to point fingers at me when I do things?"

"Before, I suspected that you were replaced by someone, but now it seems that there will be no one else with this bad temper except you." The second elder's face was gloomy, and the consciousness attached to Chen Luo was withdrawn.

Chen Luo stood in place, and the expression on his face turned cold, as if he was angered by the other party's behavior.

This man is very powerful. With Chen Luo's current strength, it is difficult to kill him without relying on the formation. And even if he can be defeated, he can't do it. This is the hinterland of the Shadow Eater Sect. In addition to the four elders who were killed by him, there are five Nascent Soul cultivators, not to mention that there is an unfathomable Sect Master in secret.

"Don't forget the Dharma Assembly on Wanxian Island in three days. This is a task assigned by the Sect Master."

After confirming the identity, the second elder began to talk about things.

He and Lu Ying didn't get along. In order to compete for the position of the Great Elder, the two fought several times, but Lu Ying was always better every time. He has been the second elder for these years. In the allocation of resources of the Shadow Eater Sect, he can only rank third.

The Dharma Assembly on Wanxian Island?

It was still assigned by the Sect Master.

Chen Luo called Elder Lu Ying's brain again.

Still didn't find any information. The obsession that Chen Luo read from Elder Lu Ying's brain was a woman. A woman he could never forget the most. Until the last moment before his death, the face of that woman flashed before his eyes.

This picture remained until the end and became his obsession.

"I will naturally not forget what the sect master told me, but when will it be your turn to point fingers at my affairs? Or do you think that now that your cultivation has improved, you can challenge my position?" Chen Luo narrowed his eyes, and the shadow under him became active.

A real fight is impossible, but the momentum cannot be weak.

"I am afraid that you will delay the sect master's important matters"

A trace of fear flashed in the eyes of the second elder. Recalling the experience of fighting with Lu Ying before, he finally did not dare to say anything, left a word and turned away.

The disciple leading the way swallowed his saliva and dared not speak the whole time.

In the Shadow-Eating Sect, disciples have no status. Only by condensing the golden elixir and becoming an elder of external affairs can they have a little say, but in front of the Yuanying elder, the elder of external affairs is just a servant.

Strength is respected, this sentence is vividly expressed in the Shadow-Eating Sect.

The sect master has the highest status, and no one dares to disobey. Lu Ying hurried down to the world to deal with Chen Luo because he was afraid that the matter would be exposed and make the sect master unhappy. In front of other elders and disciples, the great elder Lu Ying was also a privileged person.

Chen Luo ignored the disciple who led the way and turned to walk into the Transmission Pavilion next to him.

If he wanted to comprehend his own 'method', he had to master enough inheritance. The Shiying Sect just met this requirement, which was also the main purpose of Chen Luo pretending to be Elder Lu Ying.

The Transmission Pavilion was brightly lit.

The flames painted on the wall were emitting light like real lights.

A skinny weirdo was sitting on an animal skin mat in the corner. When Chen Luo came in, he raised his eyelids. After confirming the breath of 'Elder Lu Ying', he returned to his previous appearance. This person was the elder of the Transmission Pavilion of the Shiying Sect. His cultivation was a little worse than that of the second elder, but he was also in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.

Chen Luo ignored him and went upstairs.

The first floor was all the cultivation methods for disciples in the Foundation Establishment Realm, and the second and third floors were the cultivation methods for the elders like them. In the Shadow-Eating Sect, ordinary disciples who want to borrow the skills from the Transmission Pavilion need to spend a lot of merits, and they have to pay contribution points for each book they read.

But at the elder level, this rule does not exist.

Not to mention the Yuanying Realm elders, they are the makers of the rules themselves. All the rules in the sect are to serve them.

Chen Luo walked to the first bookshelf, reached out and took out a skill book and started reading it.

The external brain became active and began to help Chen Luo "learn" these techniques. No matter what type or characteristics of the technique, he could always find someone who was "good at it". With the help of these brains, Chen Luo was able to read through the techniques very quickly. In just half a day, he had read through all the techniques on the second level. (End of this chapter)
