Chapter 1933: Planning and Preparation of the Intelligence Hall

After pondering for a long time, Chen Xuan took a deep breath.

"Palace Master, I am willing to participate in this trial!"

Chen Xuan looked serious.

Cui Yuntian looked at Chen Xuan and smiled with satisfaction.

"You little fellow, you are indeed just as your uncle Qinghua said. Although we True Immortals have reached the same age as the heavens, as long as we don't perish in the major or minor thunder tribulations, or the three declines of the gods and humans, we have a chance to live forever!"

"But strength is the basis for everything."

"Your strength is undoubtedly unquestionable among fellow cultivators. However, you are only superior among your peers!"

"Compared to us old guys, there's still a big gap!"

"It's already quite rare for you, little fellow, to not be complacent. Most importantly, you're able to assess the situation and not miss any opportunity to improve your cultivation. This is even rarer."

"Haha, actually, ever since you returned from Luoxian City last time, we in the Intelligence Hall have been keeping an eye on your every move."

"After so many years of observation, we have a relatively good understanding of you."

Having said that, Cui Yuntian smiled gently.

This left Chen Xuan confused.

After thinking about it carefully, Chen Xuan suddenly realized.

I am a disciple of the Intelligence Hall.

As the hall master Cui Yuntian and the deputy hall master Wang Qinghua, they will definitely examine him strictly.

If they found anything wrong, they would not trust Chen Xuan so much.

After all, if the Intelligence Hall was infiltrated, it would mean that the entire Changsheng Xianzong would be without eyes and ears.

The extermination of the clan is only a matter of time.

"It's different from ordinary outer disciples being promoted to inner disciples. Disciples of us in the Intelligence Hall only need to complete specific tasks to be promoted from outer disciples to inner disciples!"

"Of course, as an inner disciple of the Intelligence Hall, you will enjoy the same treatment as ordinary inner disciples!"

"The only difference is that as an inner disciple of the Intelligence Hall, you are strictly prohibited from leaving the sect at will except when carrying out missions. Otherwise, you can enter and leave the sect freely."

"And these old guys in our Intelligence Hall will also regularly explain the great way of heaven and earth to the inner disciples to help them improve their strength."

"This is not something that ordinary inner disciples can enjoy."

After hearing this, Chen Xuan knew very well that Cui Yuntian was throwing bait for him.

Trying to make him stay steadfast as a member of the Intelligence Hall.

After all, Chen Xuan's current strength is much stronger than that of ordinary inner disciples.

Especially last time, his performance in the ancient True Immortal Realm ruins was remarkable.

Better than Zhang Zhen, the inner sect genius who leads the team.

It was actually not surprising that Chen Xuan became an inner disciple.

But the Intelligence Hall is different from other places.

If you want to become an inner disciple, you must pass the strict assessment of the Intelligence Hall.

This time, the outer disciple trial that Chen Xuan was carrying out was a necessary assessment by the Intelligence Hall to see whether Chen Xuan could become an inner disciple.

"Junior Brother Chen, there are not many opportunities like this, so you should seize them!" Cui Yuntian said meaningfully.

"Yes, Hall Master!"

Chen Xuan agreed and left immediately.

However, not long after he left, Wang Qinghua walked out of the hall.

Her beautiful eyes looked in the direction where Chen Xuan left, and a faint smile suddenly appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"Brother Cui, I didn't expect you to care so much about Junior-Nephew Chen!"

Cui Yuntian was not embarrassed at all, but smiled frankly.

"Junior sister, Junior Brother Chen has great talent and perseverance. Which sect would not like this little guy? It is my duty to take care of him." Cui Yuntian said with a smile.

Wang Qinghua nodded in agreement.

"Junior Brother Chen's cultivation and abilities are indeed top-tier among these younger generations. However, this is only relative to the outer and inner disciples. If compared to the core and true disciples of our Changsheng Xianzong, there is still some gap!"

"After all, the core disciples of our Changsheng Xianzong are not only formidable in combat, but also possess remarkable cultivation. I heard that one of our core disciples advanced to the early stage of the Celestial Immortal last month."

"Junior Sister, you're talking about Junior Brother Gou, right? He did advance to the early stage of Celestial Immortal last month. Haha, Junior Brother Gou was also a disciple from our Intelligence Hall back then. Have you forgotten?"

"Humph! How could I forget this person? A traitor!"

"Junior sister!"

Cui Yuntian's tone became a little heavier.

Soon, he looked at Wang Qinghua and shook his head, saying, "It's difficult to raise a dragon in shallow water. Everyone has their own ambitions. Although we in the Intelligence Hall have given him the status of an inner disciple, it was ultimately Brother Gou who relied on his own efforts to become one of the ten core disciples. From now on, you and I should be more polite when we meet Brother Gou. With Brother Gou's talent and strength, his future is limitless!"

Wang Qinghua snorted indignantly, but said nothing.

When Cui Yuntian saw this, he sighed softly.

Soon, he smiled again and said, "Alright, let's not talk about these trivial matters. How are you doing with the news I asked you to spread?"

"Brother, don't worry. I've already taken care of this matter. I'm afraid everyone in the Tianmeng Mountains knows that your injuries are getting worse."

"Very good. The bait has been spread. Now it depends on when these guys hiding in the dark will take the bait."

Cui Yuntian nodded.

Deep in his eyes, there was a fleeting cold light.

Cui Yuntian smiled again soon, "Junior Brother Chen's alchemy skills are truly remarkable. This time, he refined some Bone Tempering Immortal Spirit Pills for me. After I practice in seclusion for a while, my body will surely be much stronger than before!"

"By then, my cultivation will be able to reach the late stage of Heavenly Immortal and reach the state of great perfection."

"Haha, by that time, even that old fellow Qin Feng might not be my opponent!"

Hearing this, there was a hint of surprise in Wang Qinghua's beautiful eyes.

"Brother, are you saying that not only have your injuries completely healed, but your cultivation has also improved a bit?"

Cui Yuntian smiled and nodded.

"Yes, over the years, although my internal injuries have not been able to heal, I have not neglected my cultivation. Last time, the Purple Source Rong Shen Pill that you asked Junior Brother Chen to refine was of very good quality. After I refined two of the top-grade Earth-level Purple Source Rong Shen Pills, my damaged soul was completely restored. As a result, my cultivation level has also improved significantly."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't be so confident."

Wang Qinghua cried with joy.

Soon, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and a hint of coldness flashed in her beautiful eyes.

"Brother, now that your injuries have healed, we must carefully plan how to wipe out all the pests in our Changsheng Xianzong."

"Haha, don't worry about this matter. I have prepared many methods. Letting nephew Chen participate in the outer disciple trial is one of them!"

"Why...why?"

"Not long ago, I accidentally discovered that a certain elder in our Changsheng Xianzong was secretly investigating the whereabouts of Junior-nephew Chen. That person's cultivation level was actually in the late Earthly Immortal Realm. Junior-nephew, do you think such a coincidence can happen in this world?"

"Brother, are you saying that the late Earth Immortal who fought against Junior-nephew Chen in the Nangong family last time is hiding in our Changsheng Immortal Sect?"

"That's probably the case! Therefore, I intend to let Junior Brother Chen be the bait as well."

When Cui Yuntian said this, he suddenly realized something and his expression changed slightly.

He quickly looked at Wang Qinghua and explained with a smile, "I know, Junior Sister, you've always been against me using our Intelligence Hall disciples as bait. But, Chen Xuan is quite powerful. In my opinion, even if that old fellow takes action, he might not be a match for Junior Brother Chen."

"Don't worry, I made a promise to Junior-Nephew Chen not long ago. As long as he passes this assessment, I will give him a place as an inner disciple!"

Wang Qinghua's stern face finally relaxed a little.

"That's more or less the case. Senior Brother, our Intelligence Hall can't be as rigid as the sect. We must train these exceptionally gifted disciples well. We must give them the full benefits they deserve! I don't want to train another ungrateful person!"

"Hey, about Junior-Martial-Nephew Gou... I'll tell you about it later!"

……

After leaving the Intelligence Hall and returning to his cave, Chen Xuan did not busy himself with meditation and cultivation.

Instead, he found a place to sit down and carefully recalled his conversation with Cui Yuntian.

"The Palace Master thinks highly of me. He even gave me a chance to take the inner sect disciple examination."

"If I can pass this assessment, I will definitely become an inner disciple of the Intelligence Hall!"

"By then, the treatment you enjoy will be much better than now!"

"But the Palace Master didn't tell me the specific content of my assessment this time. What does he mean by this?"

When Chen Xuan thought of this, he was suddenly confused.

But Chen Xuan is not the kind of person who likes to dwell on trivial matters.

After thinking for a while and still having no clue, he was too lazy to waste time on such things.

"No matter what, the blacksmith must be strong himself!"

"Before the outer disciples' trials begin, I will seize the opportunity to practice in seclusion for a while!"

"Right now, there's no need to improve my cultivation. Next, I need to think carefully about how to improve my combat effectiveness!"

When Chen Xuan thought of this, he disappeared from the spot in a flash.

When he appeared again, he was already on the first floor of the Immortal Beast Tower.

The next moment, Chen Xuan flipped his palm and took out two jade slips.

The two jade slips record the two low-grade immortal arts that Chen Xuan collected.

They are the gold-attribute attack magic Iron Tribulus Technique and the fire-attribute low-grade Skilled Fire Dragon Technique.

"I had already cultivated the Five Elements Basic Immortal Arts to the state of great perfection!"

"Next, I will also practice these two low-grade immortal arts carefully."

"The cultivation of immortal arts requires the proper environment to achieve twice the result with half the effort!"

"Iron Tribulus Technique is a gold-attribute immortal technique. I can practice it in a gold-attribute mimic space. As for Fire Dragon Technique, it can be practiced in a fire-attribute mimic space."

Thinking of this, Chen Xuan smiled happily.

Soon, his figure flashed and appeared in the fire-attributed mimicry space of the Fairy Beast Tower.

call!

The scorching heat rushed towards Chen Xuan.

Seeing this, Chen Xuan did not feel uncomfortable at all.

After releasing his spiritual thoughts and choosing a decent place, Chen Xuan took out the Fire Dragon Technique and began to comprehend it.

Although the Fire Dragon Technique is a low-grade immortal technique, it is very difficult to comprehend.

Especially the part involving the power of rules is extremely obscure and difficult to understand.

But Chen Xuan did not give up.

Comprehend it bit by bit and understand the difficult points bit by bit.

After more than ten years in the Immortal Beast Tower, Chen Xuan finally comprehended the Fire Dragon Technique thoroughly.

call!

Chen Xuan let out a long sigh.

There was a hint of smile in his eyes.

"It took me more than ten years to finally master the Fire Dragon Technique. It really wasn't easy."

"In that case, I should seriously practice Fire Dragon Technique."

As he spoke, Chen Xuan's mind moved and the magic gestures in his hands kept changing.

Soon, as the immortal power surged out, a fire dragon over ten feet in size and as thick as a bowl shot out rapidly into the distant void.
