Chapter 647 Return to the Clan

"Hey, why are there so few cultivators around Jiuhua?"

Rushing all the way from Zhenwu League to Jiuhua Mountain, passing by Jiuhua City at the foot of the mountain.

Looking at the cultivator city that was obviously much quieter than before, Chu Ning and Cen Zijin couldn't help but stop.

You know, when Chu Ning returned to Jiuhua Sect decades ago, Jiuhua City was still extremely prosperous.

All kinds of disciples and casual cultivators came and went, it was very lively.

But now, Jiuhua City has lost 80% of its cultivators.

When Chu Ning observed more carefully, he found that there were very few Jiuhua Sect disciples in Jiuhua City.

The scattered ones were all casual cultivators, and the number was much less than before.

As for the Jiuhua Sect cultivators, there were only some managers.

"Is there something wrong with the sect?"

Chu Ning looked at Cen Zijin with a frown, and his brows couldn't help but lift slightly.

His consciousness probed down and randomly found a place where several casual cultivators gathered to chat.

The conversations of several people also reached his ears intermittently.

"Sealed the mountain?"

From the voices of several casual cultivators talking unintentionally, he learned that Jiuhua Sect had sealed the mountain again.

And this time it seemed that the closure would last longer.

"Could it be that another fellow sect member had formed a baby?"

While Chu Ning and Cen Zijin were guessing, they flew towards the sect.

Shi Xuerong separated from the two after entering the territory of Yunxiao League and returned to Guiyuan Sect.

While Chu Ning was flying towards Jiuhua Sect, he sent out his spiritual sense to sense it.

Sure enough, he sensed that the sect's protective formation was fully opened, which was the situation of sealing the mountain.

In this case, Chu Ning was not convenient to release his aura completely for Yu Changge and others in the sect to sense.

His current cultivation was too strong, and if his aura was released directly, if someone really formed a baby, it would inevitably interfere with the other party.

So he quietly entered the formation with the help of his identity jade card.

The spiritual sense subconsciously swept through and found that there were not many active cultivators in the sect.

The bustling Jiuhua Sect was even a little quiet at this moment.

This state did not seem like a fetus, but rather like something had happened in the sect.

However, what made Chu Ning feel a little relieved was that the many cultivators sensed by his spiritual sense did not have any obvious abnormalities.

"Let's go directly to the Sect Master!"

After Chu Ning and Cen Zijin finished talking, they flew straight to Yu Changge's cave on Jiuxiao Peak.

When he arrived outside Yu Changge's cave, Chu Ning did not restrain his breath.

While letting his breath out, he directly took out a sound transmission note and shot it into the cave.

"Junior Brother Chu! Junior Sister Cen!"

As soon as the sound transmission note entered the cave, the next moment, Yu Changge's surprised voice came out.

Then, a figure flashed and disappeared, appearing outside the cave.

It was Yu Changge.

What surprised Chu Ning and Cen Zijin was that at this moment, Yu Changge not only had white hair, but his face also looked a little older.

After not seeing each other for thirty years, Yu Changge seemed to Chu Ning and the others to be several hundred years older.

You know, at the level of Nascent Soul cultivators, there is almost no change in appearance in decades.

"Brother Yu, what happened to the sect?"

Chu Ning asked with concern at the first time.

Yu Changge laughed at this moment:

"It's okay, it's okay! Everything is fine in the sect. It's great that you two are back safely!

Haha!"

While laughing, Yu Changge shouted loudly.

"The Supreme Elder is back safely! From now on, the mountain closure will end!"

Yu Changge's voice rang over the entire Jiuhua Sect.

The next moment, the Jiuhua Sect, which was originally a little quiet, suddenly became lively and noisy.

Many cultivators who were practicing before appeared from their practice rooms.

Many people even took off directly and looked at Jiuxiao Peak with curiosity.

"All Jiuhua Sect cultivators, listen up. In two quarters of an hour, gather at the sect's dojo to welcome the Grand Elder back to the sect!"

As Yu Changge said this, the cultivators became even more noisy and lively.

Many cultivators could not wait any longer and headed directly to the dojo.

Yu Changge looked at Chu Ning at this time and said:

"Junior Brother Chu, I am so happy that I made arrangements without authorization. I hope you won't mind?"

Chu Ning smiled and shook his head. He thought for a moment:

"Junior Brother Yu, is the sect closing the mountain because of me?"

Yu Changge nodded and exhaled softly:

"Thirty years ago, Junior Sister Cen and you disappeared in Youmo Mountain one after another. Although I went to Youmo Mountain, I didn't find any trace of you.

So when I returned to the sect, I closed the mountain directly."

After hearing this, Chu Ning's eyes flickered slightly.

"Why, is there any sect force trying to take advantage of the situation?"

"That's not the case!" Yu Changge shook his head.

He also talked about how Huo Junrui took the lead and distributed a lot of treasures to Jiuhua Sect.

Then he continued:

"It's mainly because we thought that our sect should keep a low profile during the period when our junior brother's whereabouts are unknown.

It just so happens that we have accumulated a lot of resources in the past hundred years, so we can take advantage of this time to let many disciples practice well.

In case something unexpected happens next."

As he spoke, Yu Changge smiled at Chu Ning and said:

"Qin Changkong, the Yu brothers, and several deputy leaders such as He Yuexian have also come to show their concern.

No sect has deliberately made things difficult for us.

Junior brother must have seen that during the battle at Youmo Mountain, not only did everyone see how powerful he was, comparable to the cultivator of the Transformation of Gods.

He also directly saved all the monks, and these people were still thinking about this to some extent. "

Hearing this, Chu Ning breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Yu Changge's white hair.

"Then senior brother, why do you..."

"The sect master is worried about you, Supreme Elder." came the accompanying voice.

Several figures fell in front of the three people.

But it was Gong Yuyuan, Cheng Qinghui, Yuan Zhuo and others who came over after hearing the sound.

After all, Cheng Qinghui is a woman and is more emotional.

At this moment, he continued to say to Chu Ning and Cen Zijin:

“When the sect master learned that something happened to you in Youmo Mountain, his hair turned a lot gray.

Within a year of returning to the sect from Youmo Mountain, his hair turned completely white.

I'm afraid the Supreme Elder doesn't know that the sect master has rarely had a smile on his face in recent years. "

After Chu Ning heard this, she immediately said to Yu Changge with a hint of guilt:

"It makes senior brother and others worried."

"Junior Brother Chu, there is no need to say this. Brother Yu will be very happy that you and your wife can return safely."

Yu Changge laughed loudly at this moment.

"For this reason, Yu is willing to lose several hundred years of life, let alone being older.

By the way, Junior Brother Chu, they said you were swallowed up by the space crack. How did you find Junior Sister Cen after that? "

Chu Ning naturally had nothing to hide from Yu Changge and others, so he stayed in the void space for thirty years with the help of the Gangfeng Dy.

Then he accidentally entered a small space and briefly talked about his encounter with Cen Zijin.

After Yu Changge and others listened, they were also amazed.

Yu Changge even laughed heartily and said:

"It seems that even God is not willing to let a peerless person like you, Junior Brother, fall like this. God will never destroy our Jiuhua Sect!!

Hahaha, after this incident, I, Jiuhua Sect Changsheng, believe that there will be no more twists and turns! "

Everyone also had smiles on their faces.

Yu Changge said to Chu Ning at this time:

"Junior Brother Chu, when you came back last time, Yu wanted to hold a welcome ceremony for you.

It also allows many young disciples to have a glimpse of your grace.

But at that time, you were in a hurry to rush to Youmo Mountain, so you couldn't do it.

Although your battle with the Yu brothers thirty years ago has opened the eyes of all the monks.

However, after all, no one has had close contact with you, so it is better to choose a different day. Let’s go to the dojo now! "

Yu Changge had arranged everything, but Chu Ning did not refuse.

Dang even came to the dojo with Chu Ning.

At this moment, in the dojo, Ge Liuyang and other Jindan elders have led many disciples among them.

Seeing Chu Ning, Yu Changge and others coming, everyone's eyes involuntarily fell on Chu Ning.

There is admiration, awe, and curiosity in the eyes...

"Dear Jiuhua Sect disciples, Supreme Elder Chu Ning became the deacon of our Alchemy Pavilion two hundred years ago.

With his alchemy skills, he became the leader among the deacons. Many of the alchemy skills in this sect were compiled and perfected by the Supreme Elder.

Later, the Great Luo Sect came to challenge, and the Supreme Elder turned the tide and helped our sect gain the qualification to enter Wolong Mountain, and brought back many of our sect's inheritance..."

Yu Changge's voice was loud and clear as he recounted Chu Ning's deeds.

Starting from joining the Jiuhua Sect, he went to Wolong Mountain to bring back the sect's inheritance.

He went to Honghukou and led the Jiuhua Sect monks to cooperate with the Tianyin Sect to repel the Demonic Alliance monks, helped the Yunxiao Alliance defend its territory, and gained the qualification to enter the Golden Spirit Seed Spiritual Realm.

From Chu Ning forming an elixir in a short period of time, which surprised many monks, to being swept away by a space storm from the Golden Spirit Realm, he came back to the late stage of the golden elixir.

He even won the title of No. 1 Golden elixir monk in the internal competition of Yunxiao League, which shocked everyone and made Jiuhua Sect's prestige great.

It tells the story of Chu Ning's success in conceiving a baby, and the Jiuhua Sect once again has three Nascent Soul monks at the same time after a thousand years.

Later, when there were battles with Tianji League and Demon League, Chu Ning not only shined on the front line.

He even rushed thousands of miles to help return to the sect, and saved the sect from danger when Daluo Sect colluded with the Demonic Alliance, and even demons from outside the territory joined in.

Later, in the early stage of Yuanying, he became the first person among the great monks in the late stage of Yuanying.

Talking about Jiuhua Sect's reputation in Chu Ning, it continues to rise again and again.

In the middle and late stages of Yuanying, Chu Ning's cultivation speed exceeded everyone's imagination time and time again.

When Chu Ning appeared again as a late-stage Yuanying, he single-handedly defeated the combined efforts of two late-stage Yuanying brothers, the Yu brothers.

In the Youmo Mountain, one man fought alone against the god-level extraterrestrial demons and rescued all the late Nascent Soul monks from the Western Alliance Continent.

And he was swallowed by the crack in space.

Until today, come back safely!

As Yu Changge narrated, the hearts of the Jiuhua Sect monks in the entire dojo also fluctuated.

The monks who had experienced it together had memories on their faces.

As for the many young monks, they looked at Chu Ning with even more awe.

More people had fanatical admiration on their faces.

"Fellow disciples!"

"Chu was born in a small sect in the Eastern Saint Continent."

Facing everyone's looks, Chu Ning slowly spoke.

And his first words aroused great curiosity among many monks.

In fact, many monks in the sect already knew about Chu Ning's origin after Cen Zijin, Cheng Qinghui and others joined.

But it is mainly some golden elixir and foundation-building monks. Most of the monks are not clear about it.

So at this moment, there was a bit of surprise on his face.

Chu Ning continued at this moment:

“After coming to the Ximeng Continent, he joined the Jiuhua Sect, and then went to the Northern Cold Land and the Tianmu Continent.

Jiuhua Sect is the most ideal sect Chu has ever stayed in and seen.

If you are pursuing the great road, this is definitely the best choice.

Of course, all of you are also the hope for our sect to become more prosperous in the future. "

Speaking of this, Chu Ning paused slightly.

Then he continued:

"There are too many words to say. I just want to say that this world is in chaos.

In the future, many sects and monks may disappear.

I hope all of you will practice hard.

At the same time, everyone, please relax. If there is chaos in this world, our Jiuhua Sect will definitely be the safest place. "

Chu Ning's words not only made many Qi-training and foundation-building monks in the dojo look greatly moved.

Even Yu Changge and others' expressions changed somewhat.

Chu Ning didn't say anything more at this moment, and said some words of encouragement.

Finally, at Yu Changge's suggestion, Chu Ning opened the door and the entire sect rewarded him with training resources.

Naturally, the entire dojo cheered.

Afterwards, many of the monks dispersed, and only the monks of the Golden Core level or above remained.

Chu Ning also finally met Su Yuqing, Yuan Rongzhang and others. He was filled with emotion when he saw that several of them were already in the middle or late stages of Golden Elixir.

Even the little girl Su Keke successfully formed a pill in the past thirty years, which surprised Chu Ning.

It took more than a hundred years to become a golden elixir monk, and her cultivation progress was not too slow.

After waiting for Chu Ning to talk to everyone, Yu Changge brought the topic back to what Chu Ning had just said.

At this time, Chu Ning also told the story about encountering another god-level extraterritorial demon in Youmo Mountain.

"The Immortal Seed appears in the world, and the sealed extraterrestrial demon in Youmo Mountain is still thinking about it.

There are even more and more signs that extraterritorial demons in the realm of demigods have appeared in Jiuyanling Mountain.

Perhaps it won't be too long before this world is likely to be in chaos again. "

After Yu Changge and others listened, their expressions suddenly became more serious.

"If so many powerful extraterrestrial demons really appear, monks above the Nascent Soul level will still be able to protect themselves.

Monks below the Nascent Soul level..."

A look of worry appeared on Yu Changge's face.

“Of course, I need to further confirm all this.

This time I captured the demonic soul of an extraterrestrial demon, and I'm going to see if I can find out anything to confirm the authenticity of some of the information I got before.

In addition, I have already made plans for the safety of the monks in the sect. "

With that said, Chu Ning told Yu Changge about refining the ethereal key.

Yu Changge was naturally overjoyed that he had such a secret skill.

After hearing that Chu Ning was missing two refining materials, he immediately took out a storage bag and said:

"When we came out of Youmo Mountain, many monks led by Fellow Daoist Huo gave many heavenly materials and earthly treasures to our sect.

As a thank you to my junior brother for saving my life.

We have also used some available materials in recent years.

However, there are a lot of materials that even Brother Yu doesn’t quite recognize. Junior brother, you might as well take a look and see if there are any of these materials. "

As he spoke, Yu Changge poured out the materials from the storage bag.
