Chapter 150: Ruthless

Xiao Chen bowed slightly and walked away alone. Before he walked far, the red-robed elder suddenly called him, "Le Wuchen, wait a moment."

Xiao Chen stopped and turned around, "What do you want, elder?"

The red-robed elder looked at him, stroked his white beard, and said slowly, "Among the new disciples this time, you have the highest level of Taoism. Are you willing to be the senior brother of the new disciples this time?"

When these words came out, many newcomers in the distance were surprised. They naturally knew before they came that Tianji Tower was not the same as some other sects. The competition here was very fierce, especially between old and new disciples. For the cultivation resources, there were constant conflicts, which was also a kind of tempering.

And letting Le Wuchen be their senior brother, it was obvious that the two elders valued him very much, so they let him be the senior brother of the newcomers. While leading the newcomers to practice, he also had to protect his junior brothers and sisters. ✪

Of course, no one here is dissatisfied. After all, they have seen the strength that Xiao Chen has just shown. At this moment, many people showed envious eyes. Being able to become a senior brother "appointed" by the trial elders means that he will achieve higher achievements in the future and can more easily get the guidance of the "four elders" of Tianji Tower.

At this moment, the two elders looked at Xiao Chen, and originally thought that he would nod happily, but unexpectedly he arched his hands and said, "Sorry, I think I don't have this ability yet."

Hearing this, everyone in the distance was even more stunned. Why did he refuse? Such a good opportunity, others can't even beg for it. In the past, the disciples of those classes wanted to be senior brothers and fought hard to decide. Now the elders have appointed him to be this senior brother, why should he refuse?

Everyone felt very incredible. The girl named Lingluan also ran over quickly and shouted with surprise on her face, "Hey! Le Wuchen, what are you doing?"

"Sorry."

Xiao Chen arched his hands to the two trial elders again and turned away.

He would not be this senior brother, even if he knew that being this senior brother would make it easier for him to find the senior Gu Deng in the future, but he would not do it.

Now, every time he thought of Qian Yu Nishang, his heart still felt a moment of pain, so he would not have any more ties, and would not have any more ties with anyone.

Besides, he came here not for cultivation like others, for unlimited achievements in the future, but just to find someone.

The two trial elders looked at his figure leaving alone at this moment, nodded slightly, everyone has their own ambitions, since he didn't want to be this senior brother, then they would not force him.

…

A crescent moon hung obliquely at night. Xiao Chen had a separate courtyard because of his best performance in the trial. At this moment, he sat by the window sill of the attic, staring at the crescent moon in the sky in a daze.

My mind was confused, and I thought of Wei Yang from time to time. Where is Wei Yang now?

Sometimes he thought of the bloody river in the ancient village more than 20 years ago. Who did it and why? Who was he...

He took out the blood jade given by his master and saw a faint red light flowing on it. Until now, he could still feel a sense of blood connection from this blood jade, especially after he picked up the mysterious black plate in the ruins under the desert. This feeling of blood connection became more obvious.

Why did the blood jade given by his master have a sense of blood connection with him?

He held the blood jade in his hand and thought about it again and again, but he couldn't figure it out. He took a deep breath and had to put the blood jade back. For some reason, he felt that he was full of secrets, whether it was the heavenly book technique, this blood jade, or the mysterious black plate.

After an unknown period of time, the night was getting deeper and deeper, and the cold wind was blowing, rolling up the dead leaves on the ground.

Suddenly, he remembered something. When he passed by Kuangsha Castle, he heard from Granny Meng that the man who was seriously injured three hundred years ago, although his injury was healed by Nianxiangqin, his skills could not be restored. Where did that man go? Could it be that... he also came here?

Xiao Chen's eyebrows were getting more and more furrowed, and he always felt that something was very unusual. Who was that person? More than three hundred years ago, more than three hundred years ago, what happened in the ancient land of Xianyuan? Xuanqingmen...

Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, but at this moment, he suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, and a wisp of black air suddenly appeared between his eyebrows and palms.

"It's this dead air again..."

Xiao Chen's face was pale, looking at the faint dead air in his palm, and a few drops of cold sweat gradually seeped out of his forehead.

Today, when he used his power to resist the two attacks of the purple-robed elder, he faintly moved the death energy in his body. Now he didn't know what was going on, because practicing the heavenly book, now it seemed that a seed of death had been planted in his body.

This seed of death gave him the ability to control life and death, and he could control the life and death of all things at will, which greatly increased his cultivation and made him far more capable than his peers.

But at the same time, this seed of death seemed to be eating away at him bit by bit, and even made his mind change unconsciously, becoming ruthless, cold, and indifferent to life and death.

Now he can still suppress this backlash with his profound Taoism, but he doesn't know what will happen in the future.

After a long time, he finally suppressed the death energy again with the Yaoguang Heart Method, but he didn't know when it would break out next time, or if it would suddenly break out when he was exerting his power.

…

Early the next morning, Xiao Chen and twenty-three other newcomers went to the Cultivation Peak. The Cultivation Peak is the place where disciples practice on weekdays. There are many cultivation valleys, and each cultivation valley has a different aura.

The newcomers were very lucky this time. The elders assigned them a cultivation valley with abundant spiritual energy. However, as a result, the old disciples who had practiced in this valley had to withdraw. I thought there would be a conflict in the future.

But these are not important to Xiao Chen. On the third day, he stopped going to the Cultivation Valley. Others came to Tianji Tower to practice, but he came here just to find Senior Gudeng. When he found Gudeng After becoming a senior, he will leave Tianji Tower to find Weiyang.

Senior Gudeng is actually one of the "Four Elders" of Tianji Tower. If newcomers want to meet the four elders, they can only go through the tower called "Tianji".

"Tianji" Tower is also the top priority for disciples' cultivation. Every disciple must enter "Tianji" to practice. "Tianji" has ninety-nine and eighty-one levels. Disciples have the opportunity to enter the tower once a year. Trial, after passing the many tests at each level, which level you can finally reach, you can practice at that level in the next year.

If new people want to meet the four elders, they must reach at least the "36th floor".

Three months later, it will be time to enter the tower for trial, so now, Xiao Chen only needs to wait quietly for three months.

Unconsciously, a month has passed, and it has already entered the cold winter, but there is no heavy snow falling on Tianji Peak, and there is only a deep cold.

This month, Xiao Chen has not been to the Cultivation Valley again, and has always practiced in his courtyard attic. Just after noon that day, there was suddenly a rush of footsteps outside, followed by a girl's anxious voice: "Nothing." Chen! Are you in there? "

Xiao Chen ignored the girl outside. No matter how she shouted, she never opened her eyes. In the end, the girl suddenly ran up to the pavilion, opened the door and walked in. It was the girl named Ling Luan from before.

"go out."

Xiao Chen still closed his eyes and said coldly.

Lingluan came over and looked at him with sincere eyes: "Liao Wuchen, please help us. We can't defeat them. Now the senior sisters and junior brothers have been driven away by them. We have no place to practice. If this continues , unable to gather the spiritual energy of the cultivation valley, two months later, we will not be able to enter the Tianji Tower at all. In that case, we will not be able to enter the Tianji Tower for the next year..."

Xiao Chen finally opened his eyes. When Lingluan saw him opening his eyes, he quickly brought a cup of tea from the table next to him and looked at him earnestly, "Liao Wuchen, can you help us..."

Xiao Chen did not go to take the tea she brought over, but simply said, "You should go to the elders for this kind of thing."

Lingluan shook his head after hearing this, "No, no, no, the elders won't care about this kind of thing. Only you can help us. Three days later, Feng Gufei's people will have a duel with us, but we can't beat them at all. If we fail, , we will have no place to practice..."

Xiao Chen took a deep breath, stood up slowly, walked to the window, looked at the fallen leaves covering the yard, and said calmly, "I won't help you."

"Why?"

Lingluan looked at him in great surprise. Along the way, she thought to herself that no matter how cold this person was, he would never be so heartless that he wouldn't save him until death, but now...

She walked over slowly and asked in a low voice, "Why don't you help us..."

"There are so many reasons why."

Xiao Chen's voice was cold, and he turned around and walked back. Lingluan stayed behind for a long time and said, "But...but, aren't we together?"

"Together?"

Xiao Chen sat back slowly and said calmly, "When did I say I was with you? Go back, I won't help you." At the end of the sentence, he closed his eyes and ignored her.

After a while, Ling Luan came up again. After thinking for a long time, he said, "Then...how about I give you spirit stones? I have many, many spirit stones that I can give to you."

As she spoke, she dug into her sleeves and finally took out a light purple spirit stone and handed it to him, "Here! Look!"

Xiao Chen still didn't open his eyes. Lingluan looked at the small spirit stone in his hand, slowly lowered his head, scratched his head and said, "I, I only have this one now..." The words ended here. , suddenly raised his head again and said seriously, "But I, I can give you a lot of spiritual stones in the future! I have spiritual stones as high as a mountain!"

"I said I wouldn't help you, but I just can't. It's useless to talk more. Don't disturb my practice." Xiao Chen's voice was cold. At the end of his words, he flicked his sleeves and sent Ling Luan away with a blast of palm wind.

Ling Luan was sent out of the door by the wind in the palm of his hand. He staggered back a few steps before he could stand still. Just as he was about to say something, he heard a "bang" and the door was closed.
