#1001 - Being stopped
After Dou broke through to the sixth level, there were still ten Life-Storing Thunder Talismans left.
After thinking about it, Chen Mo decided to leave these talismans to Nie Yuanzhi who was still in Zhongzhou.
Although he is protected by the green and red snake demon, in the face of crisis, his own strength is the most reliable.
For him, after Ouyang Dongqing developed this talisman, he could not only help the elders of the immortal sect to break through the realm of refining emptiness more effectively, but also arrange the order of priority so that those who need it more can break through first!
The matter of attracting lightning has come to an end.
There are only two days left until the Five Elements Commercial Bank’s press conference.
Gu Fan and Qin Xi followed Chen Mo's request and set foot on the land of Zhongzhou. On their shoulders sat a yellow-spotted poisonous insect, which was not big, only the size of a thumb, and was almost noticeable.
Coupled with the breath-concealing technique taught by Chen Mo, even if one has fifth-level strength, it would be difficult for others to sense it.
Now, this yellow-spotted poisonous insect not only serves as Chen Mo's eyes and ears, but the venom it secretes alone can cause a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Realm to temporarily lose his cultivation.
It can be said that this is the most inconspicuous beast, but it cannot be ignored at all.
"Senior Brother, Kyoto is ahead." Qin Xi pointed ahead.
"Well, it's my first time here, so I'm still a little unfamiliar."
This was not the first time that Gu Fan had set foot in Zhongzhou. He had been here long before he set an ambush and captured Wu Meng, but at that time he did not enter the city in order not to attract too much attention.
As the two approached, Kyoto City Guards appeared and blocked their way.
However, when Qin Xi revealed their identities, the city guards of Kyoto City immediately invited them into the city. Not even half a cup of tea later, the Lord of Kyoto, Xiong Ziyang, the Pavilion Master of Tianbao Zhenlong Pavilion, appeared in front of the two.
"Friends Gu and Qin, long time no see!"
"City Lord Xiong, you can just call us by our names. You and Master are of the same generation. It would be a bit inappropriate for us to call us fellow Taoists." Qin Xi said.
"No! We can discuss our own issues separately."
Xiong Ziyang hurriedly asked, what a joke?
It would probably be fine to call Qin Xi "young friend", but there is a Void Refining cultivator standing in front of him, so how could he be asked to call him "young friend"?
"It's up to the city lord to do as he pleases. Don't be too humble on this matter." Gu Fan also spoke up.
Master Zhang Liang taught him to be gentle, respectful, frugal and modest, but also told him not to be pedantic, which made him appear more open-minded.
Before coming, Chen Mo had specifically instructed not to tell the people in Zhenlong Pavilion about the tribulation for the time being.
There is a cooperative relationship between them.
Now, only the people within the immortal sect know about the calamity thunder.
Not only Zhenlong Pavilion, he didn't reveal a single detail even about Linglong City and Mengying City in Beizhou.
The master had given instructions, so naturally they couldn't tell.
After all, there was a poisonous insect hiding on Gu Fan’s shoulder, and the master could see clearly everything they saw and heard, and every move they made.
"Fellow Daoist Gu and Fellow Daoist Qin are indeed young talents, outstanding talents among men! Brother Chen is blessed to have two of you as his disciples."
However, as soon as these words came out, Qin Xi's face suddenly changed.
"City Lord Xiong, you can't say that. I, Qin Xi, can achieve what I have today because of Master's care. If it weren't for Master, I would have died in the lower world long ago. So I have cultivated virtues for several lifetimes, and only in this life can I have the opportunity to become Master's disciple!"
Xiong Ziyang was speechless. He didn't expect that his flattery would hit the horse's leg.
He picked up the wine glass and apologized repeatedly, then laughed and drank it all in one gulp.
This also made him realize the situation inside Motai Mountain. Whether it was Nie Yuanzhi who was in charge of Zhenlong Pavilion or the two disciples in front of him, they all had an almost crazy worship of the founder of the Immortal Sect.
It seems that only by following him can I have a future.
But when Xiong Ziyang thought about it, it was indeed the case!
…
The next day, under Xiong Ziyang's arrangement, they successfully arrived at Longting Cave, a paradise rented by the Five Elements Commercial Bank.
This was originally a paradise purchased by a great elder of the Shennong Sect.
It is also the closest one to Kyoto.
Although for cultivators, there is not much difference between a few hundred miles and a few thousand miles, this also demonstrates the confidence of the Five Elements Trading Company.
The two brothers arrived at Longting Cave Heaven.
What comes into view is the beautiful scenery of clear water and beautiful mountains and rich spiritual energy.
Even if you just stand outside the cave, you can feel the elegance and rarity inside.
"Zhongzhou still has a profound heritage!" Gu Fan couldn't help but sigh.
Pingduzhou has undergone great changes in recent years due to the reversal of the Qiankun Formation, and along with it, a rudiment of a paradise has appeared. However, compared with the Longting Cave Heaven in front of it, it is still far behind.
At this moment, the yellow-spotted poisonous insect on his shoulder flapped its wings slightly, as if expressing its thoughts.
"Brother, with Master here, it won't be long before Pingduzhou will also have..."
"Do you two Taoist friends have an invitation?"
Outside the cave, a beautiful girl in a green gauze dress spoke.
In order to show its importance, the Five Elements Bank has arranged handsome men and beautiful women to specifically receive distinguished guests coming from all directions so that they can experience the bank's heritage.
"have."
Gu Fan handed over the bamboo slips given to them by their master.
After the other party took it, he smiled and asked, "Are you Master Chen of Motai Mountain?"
Gu Fan was stunned for a moment, then said, "That's my master. My name is Gu Fan, and this is my senior brother Qin Xi."
At this moment, the girl's expression changed slightly, but she still had a smile on her face. She said, "Excuse me, we invited Master Chen. Is your master not here?"
"He has something to do, so he sent us here."
"This..." The other party hesitated for a moment before speaking, "I'm really sorry, you two can't come in."
Gu Fan frowned.
They also knew that the person invited by the Five Elements Trading Company was the headmaster, but they didn't take it seriously at all.
The weight of two direct disciples is enough!
What's more, Gu Fan is a cultivator at the third level of the Refinement Void Realm. Just him alone is someone that the Five Elements Trading Company cannot afford to offend.
I didn't expect this situation to happen.
"Please let them know that we are here to attend the auction on behalf of our master." Qin Xi took the initiative.
Neither of them wanted a conflict.
"Sorry, the company has an order..."
Suddenly, a voice came from behind the girl:
"Why waste time talking to them? We are working for the Shennong Sect. We are not the people listed on the invitation letter. How can any random person want to come in?!" (End of this chapter)
