Chapter 2152 Emerging from Seclusion, Secret Mission

Wow!

Chen Xuan's divine sense rapidly spread outwards.

They were shocked to discover that the essence and blood within these surviving iron-tailed scorpions were significantly different from what they had seen before.

Previously, the mutated essence blood in their bodies only accounted for one-tenth.

But now, the mutated essence blood in their bodies has reached one-third.

In fact, some Irontail Scorpions even have a mutated blood essence that accounts for an astonishing half of their bodies.

"If one-third of the mutated blood essence within a demonic beast reaches a certain level, it has a chance to undergo a secondary mutation!"

"If I'm not mistaken, these Irontail Scorpions have already had a chance to mutate a second time."

"Doesn't this mean that these Irontail Scorpions now have a chance to break free from their own limitations!"

"From then on, did you go even further on the path of cultivation?"

Thinking of this, Chen Xuan became incredibly excited.

Irontail Scorpion!

Although it was a famous and powerful monster from ancient times.

However, their bloodlines are quite ordinary.

If you want to go further on the path of cultivation, mutation is the only way out.

But now, all of these iron-tailed scorpions have mutated.

This means that from this moment on, Chen Xuan possessed a large group of Irontail Scorpions with secondary mutations.

With proper training, these Irontail Scorpions will achieve extraordinary things.

"Haha, although there are fewer Irontail Scorpions this time, their overall strength has greatly improved."

"Furthermore, these Iron-tailed Scorpions are all second-stage mutated demonic beasts. They only need to cultivate step by step, and their achievements will definitely be extremely high!"

Chen Xuan smiled happily.

However, this did not stop the Irontail Scorpion swarm from fighting.

A moment later, Chen Xuan quietly left.

When he appeared again, Chen Xuan was already in the golden mimicry space.

What frustrated Chen Xuan was that the Gold-Eating Insects living here had also devoured the Ancient Immortal Spirit Pill.

However, the cultivation effect was not very good.

It could even be described as showing absolutely no improvement.

"Could it be that the Ancient Immortal Spirit Pill has absolutely no effect on the Gold-Eating Insects?"

Chen Xuan frowned slightly.

A solemn look also emerged on his face.

The Gold-Eating Insect is different from other spirit insects.

It was a notorious and ferocious insect from ancient times.

Even after so many years, it remains famous.

However, the Iron-tailed Scorpion is not a spirit insect.

It was an ancient monster.

Compared to the ancient ferocious insects, it is naturally inferior.

However, after pondering for a while, Chen Xuan still couldn't find the reason why the Gold-Eating Insect Swarm's cultivation level couldn't be improved, so he had no choice but to give up.

"Forget it, there are other ways to improve the cultivation level of the Gold-Eating Insect Swarm. I'd better get busy with other things now!"

Chen Xuan muttered softly,

Soon, he left the Immortal Beast Tower space.

When he reappeared, he was already outside his secluded retreat room.

During this period, Chen Xuan remained in seclusion.

The powerful members of the Longevity Immortal Sect stationed in Qingcaojian also engaged in countless fierce battles with the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Emperor Immortal Sect.

Due to the failure of the first sneak attack and the heavy losses suffered.

The joint attack by the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Emperor Immortal Sect ultimately ended in failure.

Thus, the large-scale battle in Qingcaojian has come to a complete end.

Only small-scale conflicts between experts at the Celestial Immortal level continue.

However, compared to the previous state of constant readiness, the entire Qingcaojian camp was filled with an unprecedented sense of relaxation.

Almost every powerful member of the Longevity Immortal Sect wore a broad smile.

As Chen Xuan walked, he silently wrote down these things.

He planned to find an opportunity to report directly to Wang Qinghua.

There was no conversation for a moment. When Chen Xuan arrived at Fei Yun and Nangong Wanrong's secret chamber, which was not far from his own, he found that Fei Yun was still in seclusion.

However, the protective array outside Nangong Wanrong's secret room had been fully activated.

Before long, Nangong Wanrong's surprised voice rang out from the secret room.

"Junior Brother Chen? You've emerged from seclusion?"

"Yes, Senior Sister, I've been in seclusion for a long time this time. I haven't come out yet. I came to see you after I came out. I didn't expect that you had also come out of seclusion!"

Chen Xuan smiled slightly.

Soon, outside the secret room, they saw Nangong Wanrong.

At this moment, Nangong Wanrong still exuded the aura of an early-stage Celestial Immortal.

However, Chen Xuan could clearly sense that Nangong Wanrong's cultivation level had improved considerably compared to before.

He's not far from reaching the mid-stage of the Celestial Immortal realm.

"Oh? Congratulations, Senior Sister! You'll probably be advancing to the mid-stage of the Celestial Immortal realm soon!"

Chen Xuan offered his congratulations with delight.

Nangong Wanrong smiled sweetly.

"Junior Brother Chen, please don't speak ill of me. Although your cultivation level hasn't improved much this time, I can still feel the immense pressure you exert on me!"

"If I'm not mistaken, Junior Brother Chen, you must have cultivated some kind of powerful secret technique, right?"

Nangong Wanrong and Chen Xuan had a close relationship.

Chen Xuan was naturally not angry when she said that.

"Senior Sister Nangong, I did indeed have some other opportunities during my seclusion this time," Chen Xuan said with a smile.

"Junior Brother Chen, there are too many people and too many eyes around here. Let's go inside and talk."

"Thank you, senior sister."

Chen Xuan nodded.

He immediately entered the secret chamber where Nangong Wanrong was in seclusion.

The secret chambers of the Longevity Immortal Sect in Qingcaojian were all built in a uniform manner.

The layout inside is exactly the same.

After Chen Xuan and Nangong Wanrong were seated, Chen Xuan said directly, "Senior Sister, when I came out of seclusion just now, I found that our Longevity Immortal Sect's camp was much more relaxed than before. Could it be that during my seclusion, the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect has become afraid to launch an attack?"

"Hehe, junior brother, what you see is just the surface."

Nangong Wanrong smiled and shook her head.

Seeing Chen Xuan's puzzled expression.

Nangong Wanrong then explained with a smile, "Junior Brother Chen, to be honest, our Changsheng Immortal Sect's camp in Qingcaojian does indeed look much more disorganized than before. This is because our two senior uncles felt it necessary to make the Tianjian Immortal Sect and Tianhuang Immortal Sect mistakenly believe that our Changsheng Immortal Sect is about to collapse, thus creating an opportunity for them to launch a surprise attack on our camp!"

"I see!"

Chen Xuan suddenly understood.

After all, Wang Qinghua and Cui Yuntian were stationed at Qingcaojian.

If the powerful figures of the Longevity Immortal Sect here dare to relax their guard, they will face the wrath of the Golden Immortal realm experts.

After hearing Nangong Wanrong's explanation, Chen Xuan realized that he had misunderstood.

"Senior sister, I wonder if there were any battles between our Longevity Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect during our seclusion?" Chen Xuan asked curiously.

“Junior brother, while you were in seclusion, I also entered seclusion. However, I emerged from seclusion a while earlier than you and heard quite a few things from my fellow disciples!”

Nangong Wanrong explained softly.

As she finished speaking, Nangong Wanrong frowned slightly.

“Junior Brother Chen, you may not know this. During our seclusion, the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Emperor Immortal Sect joined forces and launched several battles in Green Grass Ravine.”

"As a result, they were utterly defeated by our Longevity Immortal Sect! They suffered heavy losses!"

"But the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Emperor Immortal Sect showed no intention of retreating."

"In fact, every five or six days or so, they would send out strong scouts to harass us."

"This has forced our Longevity Immortal Sect to send out powerful experts to fight!"

"That's why we've lost quite a few Celestial Immortal level experts during this period!"

"Even Senior Brother Cai Lin was injured."

Nangong Wanrong's words made Chen Xuan's face turn extremely ugly.

Cai Lin is a late-stage Celestial Immortal.

He is definitely one of the top fighters in the Immortal Sect.

Unexpectedly, even Cai Lin was seriously injured.

This means that the Heavenly Immortal realm expert who came out of the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect is definitely not ordinary.

"I never imagined that so many things would happen during my secluded cultivation. Thank you for informing me, Senior Sister!"

Chen Xuan thanked him.

He quickly flipped his hand and took out two bottles of healing pills and two bottles of cultivation-enhancing pills, handing them to Nangong Wanrong.

"Senior Sister, please accept these four bottles of pills. Consider them a gift to congratulate you on advancing to the mid-stage of the Celestial Immortal realm!"

"How is this possible?"

Nangong Wanrong's expression brightened, but she did not accept the gift.

Upon seeing this, Chen Xuan immediately laughed and said, "Senior Sister, as you know, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay in Green Grass Stream any longer. Perhaps, we won't see each other again for who knows how long. If Senior Sister advances to the mid-stage of Celestial Immortal and I have no gift to give her, wouldn't that make me seem impolite?"

"Hehe, Junior Brother Chen, you really know how to talk. In that case, I won't refuse. But you should be careful. If it's a mission the sect sends out recently, it's best to avoid it if you can!"

"Thank you for the reminder, senior sister. I understand. Goodbye!"

After thanking him, Chen Xuan immediately took his leave.

Next, Chen Xuan visited many of the powerful figures from the Longevity Immortal Sect who were familiar with him.

He also took the opportunity to ask these people for recipes for elixirs and other magical medicines.

As a result, Chen Xuan was extremely disappointed.

The elixirs and pill formulas in the hands of his fellow disciples were quite good for many alchemists.

But it still didn't meet Chen Xuan's requirements.

Helpless, Chen Xuan had no choice but to refuse.

However, during his visits to fellow disciples, Chen Xuan realized that the battle between the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect and the Longevity Immortal Sect was not yet over.

There was no sign of it ending; however, the form of the battle had shifted from large-scale head-on clashes to small-scale duels between strong individuals.

However, Chen Xuan was very clear that if these small-scale battles continued, they could definitely destroy the foundation of a sect.

After all, the proportion of low-level True Immortals in the sect is too large.

Even if some losses are incurred, it will still have no impact.

However, the fall of a high-level True Immortal is an indescribable catastrophe for the rise and fall of a sect.

Back in his secluded room, Chen Xuan's expression became extremely solemn.

"It seems that things aren't peaceful in Green Grass Ravine these days. No wonder Senior Sister Nangong advised me to avoid carrying out sect missions if possible. Her words were certainly not unfounded!"

Chen Xuan smiled bitterly.

He was well aware that, given his strength and talent, even if Wang Qinghua and Cui Yuntian intentionally concealed him, the enemy still had many ways to force him to take action.

When Chen Xuan appears on the battlefield, there will definitely be a lot of trouble.

Just as Chen Xuan was at his wit's end, a streak of light suddenly shot out from the distant horizon.

They quickly landed outside Chen Xuan's secret room.

Upon seeing this, Chen Xuan, who was outside the secret room, quickly went out.

"Meet Uncle Qinghua!"

Chen Xuan's expression was extremely respectful.

Wang Qinghua's gaze swept over Chen Xuan, and she immediately smiled and said, "Junior Nephew Chen, I didn't expect that your strength would improve so much after so long in seclusion. It seems that I really made the right choice in sending you on this secret mission!"
