When Lu Chen heard these words, his eyes flashed a few times.

Suddenly, he heard a cold snort, followed the sound, and saw a few heroic young men and women, all dressed in extremely clean and tidy, quite book-like.

Among them, there was a well-looking, tall young man who looked at Lu Chen in disgust and snorted coldly.

Lu Chen looked at this person with a strange look, because this person was Zhou Yuan from the Confucian Academy.

Fang Daocheng with good appearance and square face was impressively by his side.

He looked at Lu Chen with his pocky face, frowned slightly, and said, "Junior Brother Zhou, let's go."

Zhou Yuan withdrew his gaze from Lu Chen in disgust, as if looking at him more would pollute his own eyes, and followed Fang Daocheng's footsteps.

As for the other disciples of the Confucian Academy, they also followed him.

Seeing his two leaving behind, a trace of killing intent flashed in Lu Chen's eyes.

Both Fang Daocheng and Zhou Yuan wanted to kill him, so Lu Chen would never let them go if he had the opportunity.

However, there are more than them here, there are children of other forces, Lu Chen can only let go of this idea.

Suddenly, his heart moved, and he no longer returned to the Heavenly Sword Sect, but followed Fang Daocheng and others to the Lingxu Valley.

...

In Zhongzhou, there are many mountains, and Lingkun Mountain is one of them.

Located in the southeastern part of Zhongzhou, this mountain range stretches for thousands of miles. There are many peaks, countless spiritual peaks, and countless strange flowers and grasses in the mountains. Under the bright sunshine, it will bloom from time to time.

From the sky above, the entire Lingkun Mountain Range looks like a luminous dragon, showing a grand atmosphere.

Almost everyone who arrives can't help but utter admiration.

According to rumors, in ancient times, a super power stood in this mountain range.

As for the name of that power, there is no way to study it, but all Zhongzhou warriors know that nowadays, there is a super power established in this mountain range, that is, Lingxu Valley.

Lingxu Valley, that is the force that ranks in the forefront of the fourteen major sects in Zhongzhou, plus this force is mainly alchemy, and 80% of the alchemists in Zhongzhou are from this force;

Therefore, no warrior dare to run wild here.

Today is the day when Lingxu Valley held an alchemy competition among the outer disciples. The mountain gate opened wide, and dozens of disciples stood outside the spectacular mountain gate to welcome people from all sides.

Among them, there are not only the head teachers of various sects, but also some well-known casual practitioners.

However, when they came to the mountain gate of Lingxu Valley and faced the protectors and deacons of Lingxu Valley, there was no arrogance, even for those whose cultivation level was lower than theirs and their strength was weaker. You are polite.

There is no way to do this. Who calls Lingxu Valley one of the top forces in Zhongzhou?

Of course, the key reason is that there are too many alchemists in Lingxu Valley. When they need a certain kind of medicine, they will seek the help of these alchemists out of ten.

Especially those elders in Lingxu Valley, the existence of seventh-rank alchemy masters and above, even those who are strong in the sky-passing realm, dare not put on airs in front of them.

Of course, the people in Lingxu Valley will naturally not deliberately put on an arrogant attitude, because these people are all invited by Lingxu Valley to conduct alchemy trials and rituals to the outer disciples of Lingxu Valley.

This is also an opportunity for Lingxu Valley to forge good ties with major forces and families.

After all, even as the top power in Zhongzhou, Lingxu Valley still did not dare to engage in evil with the major powers.

Because they know very well that there are too many forces in Zhongzhou that are jealous of Lingxu Valley, and many of them are top forces.

Therefore, under such circumstances, they would not leave these people with the image of Lingxu Valley's domineering and unscrupulous.

Had Lu Chen not known the virtues of Ling Xudu, the Great Elder Lingxugu, his disciple Qian Yuan, and the so-called Inner Sect disciple Long Xiao, Lu Chen would have been deceived by all that Lingxugu showed. .

He sneered twice in his heart, and after Fang Daocheng waited for someone to enter for a while, he swaggered forward.

The people next to him saw Lu Chen with a pocky face, and they were more or less disgusted, especially those young and beautiful women who looked at Lu Chen as if they were watching a fly, for fear of avoiding it.

Lu Chen directly pretended not to see this, and walked into that dry Lingxu Valley to receive his disciples.

One of the reception disciples stepped forward and said, "Sorry, today is the day when our outer disciples in Lingxu Valley hold a pill refining test. If there is no invitation, we can't go in. Please also invite friends to come back."

"Take it."

If Lu Chen had not seen the disgust in his eyes, he might have been deceived by this person, so he deliberately dug his nose with his fingers, then took out a purple-gold invitation from his arms and placed it This person has it.

This Lingxugu disciple didn't expect that Lu Chen would actually have an invitation, so he was stunned.

Lu Chen said angrily: "What are you doing in a daze, is my invitation fake?"

"No, no, please, please." The Lingxugu disciple woke up upon hearing this, and hurriedly let Lu Chen go in.

"Hehe, it's better for Lingxu Valley. I didn't drive me out because of my ugly appearance." Lu Chen patted the Lingxugu disciple on the shoulder with his hand and said with a smile.

"Whatever my friend said, I am hospitable in Lingxu Valley. I welcome friends from all over the world. How can I judge people by their appearance." After the Lingxugu disciple said this, he saw that Lu Chen had already walked in with a big deal.

Suddenly, he noticed that there were a few hand prints on his shoulders. Only then did he remember that Lu Chen patted his shoulder with the hand that had just dug out his nostrils, and suddenly made this Lingxugu disciple want to vomit. feel.

He said disgustingly: "Why does this person have an invitation? Zongmen can't send it wrong, right?"

"Who knows, maybe this person is the apprentice of the senior casual cultivator, after all, most of these people are bold and unrestrained, and don't care about cleanliness." Said a reception disciple.

"Forget it, since he has an invitation, can we still prevent him from entering?" The reception disciple who said this glanced at Lu Chen's back, always feeling that something was going to happen.

"Hey, fortunately, I am prepared to grab an invitation from someone else, otherwise I really can't get in."

Looking at the Lingxu Linghua and the pavilions in the Lingxu Valley, Lu Chen couldn't help but think with joy.

Along the way, he also saw people from various forces and families.

Among them, there are many elders, guardians, and disciples from the fourteen major forces in Zhongzhou.

From this, we can see how prestigious Lingxu Valley is in Zhongzhou.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Heavenly Sword Sect cannot match this.

In addition, Lu Chen also saw a lot of elders, protectors, and disciples in Lingxu Valley. Each of them was wearing costumes with a tripod embroidered on his chest. Different colors represented different identities.

This point is similar to the rules of the big sects in Zhongzhou.

It took a full half an hour before Lu Chen walked the stone path.

At the end of the stone path, there are two magnificent and tall peaks, reaching thousands of feet high, straight into the sky.

Between these two peaks, there is a gateway.

Lu Chen walked in, and after a while, he felt his eyes light up, and a huge basin-shaped valley appeared in front of him.

In the middle of the valley, there is a square with a radius of ten thousand feet. The ground is paved with hard gray glazed stone, which is cleaned and spotless.

The square was surrounded by rows of stone benches. From bottom to top, Lu Chen estimated that it would be enough to hold a hundred thousand people. The scene was extremely vast.

As expected of Lingxu Valley!

Although Lu Chen didn't like Lingxu Valley at all, he couldn't help but exclaimed at this moment.

"Hey, I didn't expect them to come too."

Looking around, what Lu Chen didn't expect was that he saw many acquaintances;

In addition to Fang Daocheng and Zhou Yuan that he saw outside, there were Zhao Zichuan and Fengshenyu of the Five Poison Sect; Song Clan of Kaiyang Sect; Tuobazhen of Julingmen; and Xingxingtian of the Three Gods Sect also came.

What was most unexpected by Lu Chen was that he also met Zhu Daoji, the elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect Pill Pavilion, and Qin Zong, the major disciple of the inner door.

Seeing this, Lu Chen's heart moved, his cheap master Wu Lengchan and Ling Xudu were opposite each other, don't know if they came?

It was a pity that he searched it several times, but he didn't see Wu Lengchan's figure, which made Lu Chen a little disappointed.

After thinking about it, he didn't look for it anymore, because he was worried that his other behavior would attract the attention of interested people, after all, this was the territory of Lingxu Valley.

And Lingxu Valley attaches great importance to this matter, look at the Lingxu Valley disciples standing around you know that if someone makes trouble, they will take action without hesitation.

Therefore, Lu Chen properly found a place to sit down.

I don't know if he was intentional or unintentional, but he found a forward position to sit down.

In fact, Lu Chen wanted to sit in the first three rows, because here you can see the scene of the disciples from the outer door of Lingxu Valley doing alchemy later.

However, the first three rows are the positions of well-known sectarian families from all sides, and a casual cultivator like him, if there is an invitation, would not even be able to enter.

He didn't know what was going on. After sitting down for a while, Lu Chen found that no one was willing to sit next to him. Even if a few people came, they all sat behind when they saw his appearance.

This made Lu Chen extremely depressed. He had long known that people judged people by their appearance, and he became a little more handsome.

Two hours passed.

Suddenly a group of people came out of the Lingxu Valley in a mighty force, and he was still very familiar with the first few people.

The one in the center is the valley master of Lingxu Valley, Bu Tianhong;

Qianyuan's master, Ling Xudu, the Great Elder of Lingxu Valley, and Wu Huaian, who was drunk by the cheap master Wu Lengchan in Taixu Valley, were on both sides of Bu Tianhong.

"The Sect Master is here, the Great Elder is here!"

At the moment they walked out, a deacon from Lingxu Valley shouted in all directions, and the sound wave rolled and spread throughout the valley.

Everyone suddenly became quiet.

Lu Chen also watched quietly, only to see Tianhong walk out that step, with a kindly smile on his face, like a benevolent elder, looking around, nodding to the consuls of various sects and major families.

Then he said: "Everyone, thank you for being able to come to my Lingxu Valley to watch this sect's outer disciple alchemy competition. I would like to thank you on behalf of Lingxu Valley."

After saying this, he bowed to everyone, which immediately greeted everyone's warm applause.

Bu Tianhong waved his hands slightly, and everyone immediately stopped applauding, and then heard him say: "In this outer disciple alchemy competition, Wu Huaian, the elder of this sect, is the main judge, and the other twelve elders serve as the judging panel. Elect the disciples who have the most outstanding alchemy from outside."

Everyone applauded again, very enthusiastically, giving Lingxugu a lot of face.

This also made Bu Tianhong as the suzerain very happy.

He is convinced that after this session of the outer disciple alchemy competition is over, the reputation of Lingxu Valley in Zhongzhou will be even higher, reaching the point where it is pivotal and overshadowing the Heavenly Desolate Palace.
