Chapter 19 Lilly

After the explosion, silence returned to the third floor.

There were heavy footsteps on the stairs, and someone was coming up.

Everyone was in shock and doubt, staring at the stairs.

The next moment, Zhang Chengbin walked up.

Everyone let out a long sigh, Zhang Chengbin won!

Even if Lu Chen can't come up, everyone's face is finally saved!

"Zhang Chengbin, you really did not disappoint us."

Zhou Ruoxue's smile was as bright as a dimple, and she was extremely happy.

"No, I let everyone down."

Zhang Chengbin shook his head and stepped aside, "I lost."

"What?"

Everyone was stunned.

"With your strength, how could you lose? What level is Lu Chen in? Is it possible that he is higher than you?"

Zhou Ruoxue felt unbelievable.

"I traded moves with him, and it was almost a draw."

Zhang Chengbin spoke slowly, with no expression on his face, "But in terms of realm, I lost. He is only at the eighth level of the Body Refining Realm. I, Zhang Chengbin, want to lose face, so I can't fight him again."

The eighth level of the body refining realm!

These five words were like thunder, exploding in everyone's hearts.

There are many people on the fourth floor who are at the eighth level of the Body Refining Realm, but their strength is not so abnormal.

Zhou Ruoxue said nothing, but her face looked a little ugly.

"interesting."

Jiang Yao nodded thoughtfully.

Then, footsteps came from the stairs, neither fast nor slow, but like thunder striking a mountain, shocking people's hearts.

After a while, Lu Chen appeared in front of everyone.

At this time, Lu Chen's aura was surging, and he was at the eighth level of the body refining realm.

"As expected, he is at the eighth level of the Body Refining Realm. It's really unbelievable."

"He actually tied with the second level of the True Yuan Realm. What a monster."

"Fortunately, I didn't take action just now, otherwise today would be my death anniversary next year."

"To be honest, I kind of admire Lu Chen."

Everyone whispered to each other, and many people looked at Lu Chen with a little more awe.

"Lilly!"

Lu Chen paid no attention to the crowd, but extended his hand to Zhou Ruoxue.

If it weren't for the fifty low-grade spiritual energy pills, he wouldn't have come here to attend this Hongmen Banquet.

In order to become stronger and cultivate resources, he would do anything.

The enemy is so strong, and if he doesn't get stronger, he will die!

"What gift?"

Everyone around me looked at me and I looked at you, but none of them knew.

Lu Chen waved his hand, and an invitation flew to everyone.

Everyone opened it and suddenly realized that it was no wonder Lu Chen came to the banquet. It turned out to be for the spiritual energy pill.

But the next moment, everyone was extremely envious. Fifty low-grade spiritual energy pills were an absolutely precious resource.

Normally they couldn't get even one if they asked for it, but Lu Chen could just go to the Hongmen Banquet, so why didn't he ask them to come?

"Take it."

Zhou Ruoxue's face was gloomy, she took a brocade box and threw it to Lu Chen.

Lu Chen took it, opened it and counted it. The number was just right, so he put away the brocade box and turned around to leave under the envious eyes of everyone.

"Since you're here, why don't you have something to eat before leaving?"

Zhou Ruoxue suddenly opened her beautiful hand and reached for Lu Chen's wrist, as if she was trying to pull Lu Chen to stay.

"I'm very busy and won't eat."

Lu Chen pointed out, tapped on the jade hand, and then moved the jade hand away.

"Nothing more than that!"

Zhou Ruoxue raised her eyebrows lightly and showed a disdainful smile.

"Each other!"

Lu Chen didn't express much, just smiled lightly.

"You have a good talent. When you grow up, you will be amazing!"

Jiang Yao, who had always kept a low profile, came closer and spoke to Lu Chen.

"A disciple of Ziyun Sect?"

Lu Chen was slightly surprised. Jiang Yao was wearing Ziyun robe, which was the unique Taoist robe of Ziyun sect. He could tell where Jiang Yao came from at a glance.

"Senior Brother Jiang Yaojiang is the true disciple of Ziyun Sect!"

Zhou Ruoxue corrected herself and put her arm around Jiang Yao's arm, with a look of extreme pride on her face. She was clearly telling everyone that only such a person was worthy of her, not Lu Chen.

Hearing this, everyone suddenly exclaimed.

They knew that Jiang Yao was a disciple of Ziyun Sect, but they didn't know that Jiang Yao was a true disciple.

A martial arts disciple has four levels: outer sect, inner sect, core and true disciple.

Even the outer disciples are the envy of everyone, let alone the highest-status true disciples?

"low profile."

Jiang Yao glanced at Zhou Ruoxue with a smile, and then moved his gaze to Lu Chen, "I heard that you have certain attainments in the alchemy path. I wonder if you are interested in joining Ziyun Sect?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Ruoxue's expression changed on the spot.

However, Jiang Yao pinched her gently and signaled her not to speak, so she endured it.

"Can you let me enter Ziyunmen?"

Lu Chen was greatly surprised. The true disciple's status in Wumen was very high, but he was not high enough to appoint a disciple candidate.

"Not the martial arts disciples, but I can have the final say as to the alchemy disciples."

Jiang Yao nodded and said with a smile, "Ziyunmen has a Ziyun Alchemy Academy, which specializes in cultivating alchemy disciples. As long as you are willing to join the alchemy academy, I will take you directly to get started and recommend it to the elders of the alchemy academy."

It turned out that this was the main reason why Jiang Yao wanted to meet Lu Chen!

In fact, every martial arts sect has its own alchemy disciples, and Ziyun Sect is no exception.

As the saying goes, martial arts cultivators are easy to find, but alchemy cultivators are difficult to find.

There are only a few alchemy cultivators, and most of those with some talent have defected to the alchemy pavilion of the authentic alchemy sect. As a result, there are very few alchemy cultivators in major martial arts schools, and they are in desperate need of talents.

Before Jiang Yao went out, he was entrusted by the elder of the Alchemy Academy. When he met a talented alchemy cultivator, he brought him directly to the Alchemy Academy regardless of the rules.

The Alchemy Academy is a very important institution of Ziyun Sect, and the elder of the Alchemy Academy has great power.

If he can bring back a good alchemy cultivator, the elder of the alchemy dean will definitely reward him, and his cultivation resources will at least double in the future.

He heard that Lu Chen defeated Zhou Hong in an alchemy battle in the alchemy hall, and refined the second-level elixir Zhenyuan Dan, a batch of nine elixirs, all of which were top-grade.

At that time, he became obsessed with Lu Chen. Even though Zhou Ruoxue had a grudge with Lu Chen, he was still thinking about how to poach Lu Chen.

As for Zhou Hong, he couldn't even refine a top-grade True Yuan Dan, so he was not qualified to enter the Ziyun Dan Academy.

At this time, Zhou Ruoxue's complexion cleared up and her smile blossomed.

Since ancient times, it has been difficult to practice alchemy with others. Once Lu Chen left alchemy, martial arts would be basically useless.

In alchemy cultivation, most of the time and energy are spent on alchemy, and progress in martial arts must be very slow.

Zhou Hong is an example. He is almost thirty years old. If he were to practice martial arts, he would definitely be not only at the ninth level of body refining, but perhaps at the second level of true essence.

Therefore, if Jiang Yao wanted to take Lu Chen to the Alchemy Academy and take the route of alchemy cultivation, Zhou Ruoxue would naturally not object.

"Lu Chen, you are lucky, why don't you thank Senior Brother Jiang?"

Zhou Ruoxue shouted.

Everyone also looked at Lu Chen with envy.

Being able to enter Ziyun Sect, regardless of alchemy or martial arts cultivation, has a bright future.

The next moment, Lu Chen's response made everyone pause.

"I'm sorry, I'm not interested in Ziyundan Academy, I'm interested in the admissions ceremony!"

Lu Chen said coldly and walked up the stairs.

"Lu Chen, I hope you will consider it. This is a rare opportunity."

Jiang Yao's smile froze and his face darkened a little, but he still wanted to make a final save.

"Zhou Ruoxue, let's settle our grudges at the admissions ceremony."

Lu Chen ignored Jiang Yao and pointed his finger at Zhou Ruoxue.

"You actually refused Senior Brother Jiang's support and insisted on dying at the hands of this young lady. You are really a bitch."

Zhou Ruoxue's face changed and she said disdainfully.

"Your martial arts talent is pretty good. The eighth level of the Body Refining Realm and the second level of the True Yuan Realm are really shocking."

Jiang Yao's face was already ugly, and his words were much more sinister, "But you are too weak, can you grow up?"

The threat is self-evident!

Lu Chen snorted coldly, turned around and went down the stairs, and disappeared.
