Chapter 1283 Lingxi Mountain
Chapter 1283 Lingxi Mountain
When Lu Chen heard the familiar voices of the two, the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose slightly, revealing a confident smile.
"But..." Xingyao's voice was filled with anxiety, "If we don't notify him in time and miss the Immortal Emperor Exchange Conference, it will definitely be a huge loss for Lu Chen!"
"I know." Ye Ying nodded, his eyes firm. "But do we have any other options besides waiting?"
The two fell into silence, the entanglement in their hearts like a heavy stone pressing on their hearts.
Just as they were hesitating, they suddenly heard a slight sound of a door opening.
The two of them suddenly raised their heads and saw Lu Chen's door slowly open, and a familiar figure appeared at the door.
Lu Chen stood there, as if he had become a different person, emitting an indescribable aura.
It was a deep and powerful fluctuation of power that made people look sideways.
Yeying and Xingyao looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
"Why are you here?" Lu Chen asked calmly, looking at his two friends gently.
"Lu Chen!" Xingyao couldn't help but take a step forward and asked excitedly, "Your aura... seems to have changed?"
Lu Chen smiled slightly and said softly: "I have made some progress in my cultivation during this retreat and have reached the late stage of Taiyi Xuanxian realm."
After knowing that the Haoyue Emperor Sect had no ill will towards him, Lu Chen did not intend to hide it. This would actually be beneficial to him.
"What?" Ye Ying's eyes widened, looking at Lu Chen in disbelief. "So fast? Breakthrough just like that? How is that possible?"
"Nothing is impossible." Lu Chen said lightly, "As long as you work hard enough, everything is possible."
Ye Ying and Xing Yao curled their lips upon hearing this, thinking, "If hard work is useful, why haven't we, the two of us, been able to break through to the late Taiyi Xuanxian realm after thousands of years of hard work?"
Thinking of this, Xingyao and Yeying smiled at each other, understanding each other's thoughts.
However, they are not the kind of people who are petty and calculative. On the contrary, they are people who value friendship and loyalty.
So, Xingyao smiled brightly and said to Lu Chen, "Lu Chen, since you have completed the breakthrough, how about the three of us go to the Immortal Emperor Exchange Conference together?"
Lu Chen nodded in agreement: "Then I'll follow your arrangements."
So, Xingyao summoned a flying shuttle - this treasure looked like a phoenix spreading its wings and flying high, emitting a soft light all over.
Driven by the starlight, the shuttle took off quickly, carrying the three people through the clouds and rushing towards the distant Lingxi Mountain.
Lingxi Mountain is located to the east of Haoyue Emperor Sect, shrouded in clouds and mist thousands of miles away. It is said that this is the place where ancient immortals practiced and attained enlightenment, and the power of the laws here is very special.
This is why every Immortal Emperor Exchange Conference is held in Lingxi Mountain.
After flying for several hours, the shuttle finally landed slowly in a dense forest. This was Lingxi Mountain.
Looking down from the air, Lingxi Mountain looks like a winding dragon, coiled above the earth.
It is surrounded by rolling mountains, which are of different heights and shapes. Some are like sharp swords piercing the sky, some are like camels lying on the ground, and some are like fairies dancing.
The top of the mountain is hidden in the mist, appearing and disappearing, as if connected to the sky, giving people a mysterious and spectacular feeling.
When the shuttle landed, a fresh air blew in, mixed with the faint scent of flowers and grass.
This breath makes people feel relaxed and happy, as if all the fatigue and stress are released in an instant.
At this time, Lu Chen jumped off the shuttle and saw that there was no one around. It did not look like a place for practicing Taoism, so he asked doubtfully:
"This doesn't seem like a good place for preaching. Did we come to the wrong place?"
Ye Ying heard this and explained: "Lu Chen, you don't know that in order to show respect to the Immortal Emperor, there is an unwritten rule.
That is, all monks participating in the exchange meeting cannot use any magic weapons or flying means to go to the Taoist temple, and must walk one kilometer away from the Taoist temple.
This is also a test for us practitioners, to see if we can maintain humility and awe, of course, with the exception of Immortal Emperor-level masters."
Lu Chen was stunned for a moment after hearing this. He didn't expect that there would be such a crappy rule.
In his impression, although the fairy world had many etiquettes, he was surprised by such strict restrictions.
Lu Chen frowned slightly, muttering to himself that this seemed a bit pedantic, but then he thought that this might also be a way to cultivate his mentality.
Xingyao saw that Lu Chen's face was not right, and smiled and comforted him: "In fact, this rule has its reasons. Hiking not only allows us to better experience the surrounding natural environment, but also exercises our willpower.
Besides, the distance is not very far, it is just a piece of cake for you and me."
Hearing this, Lu Chen nodded, and the dissatisfaction in his heart dissipated a lot.
So, the three of them each used their own skills and headed towards the foot of Lingxi Mountain.
Their figures flashed through the woods like lightning, leaving only blurry afterimages.
As they approached their destination, the surrounding scenery gradually changed. The originally dense forest became sparse, replaced by an open grassland.
The grass is dotted with a few unknown wild flowers, swaying gently in the wind and emitting a faint fragrance.
The outlines of the mountains in the distance are clearer, like a sleeping dragon lying between heaven and earth, majestic and imposing.
The three of them quickened their pace and soon arrived at the foot of the mountain.
At this moment, quite a few monks have gathered here, some standing, some sitting, talking in groups of three or five.
Occasionally, you can hear a few words about cultivation experiences or anticipation for the upcoming exchange conference.
There was a faint spiritual aura in the air, which was the natural aura formed by many cultivators gathering together.
Just as Lu Chen and others were preparing to find a suitable location to wait for the meeting to begin,
An inopportune voice suddenly rang out from the crowd: "Hey, isn't that Ye Ying? I heard that you were beaten badly not long ago. Now you dare to come to the Immortal Emperor's exchange meeting? Are you trying to teach me a lesson again?"
The speaker was a young man wearing a gorgeous robe and a proud smile.
He was surrounded by several companions, who were obviously practitioners who came to participate in the exchange conference.
The young man's words were full of disdain and ridicule. He glanced at Ye Ying provocatively, as if he wanted to see an expression of anger or embarrassment on the other's face.
Hearing this, the atmosphere around them suddenly became a little tense.
Many monks who were originally talking in low voices stopped talking and turned their eyes over here. It was obvious that people who like to watch the show and stir up trouble were everywhere.
Upon hearing this, Ye Ying's expression changed slightly, and he immediately scolded in a low voice: "Ye Lingfeng...you..."
But before he could finish his words, Xingyao pulled him back and shook his head slightly, signaling him not to be impulsive...
