One side of the main hall.
The pupils in Chen Kun's eyes shrank tightly, with a look of disbelief and horror on his face.
He stared at the disciple at the bottom of the pit, then turned to Zhou Qi, who was breathing calmly, and felt huge waves in his heart!
Nascent Soul Fifth Layer?
Such speed, such explosive power, such crushing terrifying combat power, what is Nascent Soul Fifth Layer!
Even ordinary Spirit Transformation Early Stage monks may not be able to reach this level of speed and strength!
It has only been a year since he entered the peak, and he has grown from the Golden Core Realm level to such a terrifying level. This kid's talent is simply terrifying!
After the shock, a sense of fear enveloped Chen Kun's heart.
His growth rate is too frightening, his temperament is decisive and murderous, and he has deep grudges against himself.
If he is allowed to rise today, he will become a serious problem in the future!
This child must not be kept!
But now, the deal is done, the outcome has been decided, and he has no reason to refute or block it anymore!
Zhou Qi looked indifferent, patted his sleeves lightly, turned to look at Chen Kun, whose face was extremely gloomy, bowed slightly, was polite, and said with a slight smile:
"Disciple Zhou Qi, thank you Elder Chen for your support."
After that, he said no more, turned around, flicked his sleeves, and walked out of the hall step by step.
Inside the main hall, there was dead silence.
Chen Kun stood there, the gloominess in his eyes not diminishing at all.
The time set by the Four Directions Secret Realm was to open after one month, but only halfway through, Zhou Qi received a message from the sect, ordering all the selected disciples to gather in front of the Primordial Immortal Sect mountain gate in the early morning of the next day, and set off to the secret realm in a unified manner.
The reason for setting off half a month in advance is that the location of the secret realm is too remote and has long been beyond the territory of the Primordial Immortal Sect. Strictly speaking, it is located within the realm of Myriad Ages Divine Court.
Primordial Immortal Sect and Myriad Ages Divine Court already have a feud, and there has been constant friction for thousands of years.
Because of this, there are many dangers along the way, so this time the sect specially arranged for top experts to lead the escort team.
The leader of the team this time is Black Crane, who ranks second among the three powers of the Primordial Immortal Sect. His cultivation has reached Body Integration Realm perfection. He is only one step away from the Half-Step Great Vehicle Realm, and his strength is sky-high.
With the speed and knowledge of Black Crane, leading a team across the Myriad Ages Divine Court Dao Domain, they can reach the secret base in half a month. This is more than enough time to minimize the risks along the way.
The next morning, the sky was bright.
Zhou Qi opened the door and walked out, wearing a simple gray shirt.
This trip to the secret realm, the round trip and the trial, will take at least several months.
He glanced at the small courtyard, raised his hand, pinched a ban and hit it in the sky above the small courtyard.
After finishing everything, Zhou Qi took one more look, then turned into a gray light in the air and rushed towards the Primordial Immortal Sect mountain gate.
When passing by the Heavenly Sword Peak gate square, Hui Yaya stood on the square with several people, and all the remaining nineteen disciples who were selected to the secret realm gathered here.
Chen Kun stood in front of the crowd, explaining matters to the nineteen Heavenly Sword Peak disciples.
Zhou Qi glanced lightly, showing no intention of stopping to join forces. Instead, he increased his speed, swept across the square, and flew towards the Zongmen Mountain Gate in the distance.
Chen Kun on the square had already noticed the moment Zhou Qi appeared, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he snorted heavily.
He suppressed the anger in his heart, turned to look at the disciples in front of him, and spoke loudly, "This Four Directions Secret Realm is the perfect fortuitous opportunity for you to break through the shackles and set foot on Spirit Transformation. It is hard-won once every ten years! But the murderous intent in the secret realm is full of dangers and dangers. If you are not careful, you will die!"
"Chang Qing!"
A young disciple with starry eyebrows and sword eyes and a calm temperament came out in response. He had a very strong and arrogant aura. He was the chief disciple of Chen Kun. He had been with Nascent Soul Perfection for more than 20 years.
I had entered the secret realm three times before. Although I failed to retrieve Profound Heart Violet Orchid and obtained Calamity-Crossing Pill, my experience in the secret realm three times was stronger than anyone present.
"Disciple is here!" Chang Qing bowed and saluted with a respectful attitude.
Chen Kun's eyes were heavy and he said solemnly, "You have entered the secret realm three times and have the most experience. This time, you will lead the team to protect your fellow disciples. As my chief disciple, you should bear the brunt and protect my Heavenly Sword Peak disciple Zhouquan!"
"If our disciples suffer heavy casualties this time, I will definitely punish you for dereliction of duty after you return!"
Chang Qing looked solemn, clasped his fists and responded in a deep voice, "I will follow the teachings of my master! I will definitely do my best to protect the safety of all my Heavenly Sword Peak disciples!"
Chen Kun nodded slightly, stopped talking, and waved his hand. "You go ahead and gather at the mountain gate. Chang Qing, you stay."
All the disciples did not dare to hesitate, they clasped their fists and saluted, and all of them jumped into the air and flew towards the mountain gate.
In an instant, only the master and the apprentice were left in the square.
Chang Qing stepped forward quickly, arched his body slightly, and said in a humble manner, "Master, what are your instructions?"
Chen Kun raised his hand and patted his shoulder lightly. His voice was lowered and his solemnity faded away. "You have entered the secret realm three times, and you have a clear understanding of the rules and danger distribution of the secret realm. You should be fully confident in going there this time."
Chang Qing still bowed his head and waited quietly for the next words.
"Those words just now were just words for others to listen to." Chen Kun said in a cold tone, with a hint of indifference, "The first priority for this trip to the secret realm is to protect yourself. Don't worry too much about the life and death of the other disciples."
Chang Qing's eyes flickered, his expression remained unchanged, and he responded respectfully, "Disciple knows."
Chen Kun's eyes turned cold, his murderous intent quietly revealed, and he continued in a deep voice, "Your junior brothers Liu Ying and Lin Mo all died inexplicably while on missions with Zhou Qi."
"This matter is strange and has nothing to do with Zhou Qi."
"This trip to the secret realm, I want you to keep an eye on Zhou Qi throughout the entire journey and keep an eye on his every move."
While speaking, Chen Kun raised his hand and took out a simple talisman with complicated patterns from his arms. With a flick of his fingertips, the talisman floated in front of Chang Qing.
"This is Energy-Storage Killing Talisman. I spent a lot of money to buy this rare material. I also spent half a month refining it day and night, integrating all my 50% cultivation power of killing Dao Yun throughout my life into it."
Chen Kun's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and his tone was fierce. "Once this talisman is released, it can explode with 50% of my peak attack power. The lethality is extremely terrifying. Even if monk Spirit Transformation takes it head-on, he will be seriously injured!"
"I want you to find the perfect opportunity in the secret realm, secretly use this talisman on Zhou Qi, and kill it with one strike!"
"Afterwards, all traces of the killings were erased, and all blame was placed on the monks of Myriad Ages Divine Court, creating the illusion of cross-border fighting and accidental death!"
He stared at Chang Qing, and his tone suddenly worsened, with irresistible pressure. "Can you do this?!"
Chang Qing bowed his head, his head slightly lowered, his eyes had already stirred up a stormy sea, and his mind was shocked.
Chen Kun wants to kill Zhou Qi!
Heavenly Sword Peak Elder wants to kill Peak Master Fu Linyuan's direct disciple!
Once this matter is exposed, it will be a huge disaster, enough to overturn the Heavenly Sword Peak pattern and implicate countless people!
But he has followed Chen Kun for many years and knows very well that his master has a ruthless nature.
At this time, I have already told myself in such a vague way that if I don't agree, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out of this Heavenly Sword Peak.
After a brief moment of shock, Chang Qing took a deep breath, suppressed all the waves in his heart, raised his head and raised his hand, solemnly took the Energy-Storage Killing Talisman floating in front of him, put it firmly into his palm, bowed and said in a deep voice, "Disciple, you will definitely complete the mission!"
When Chen Kun saw this, a smile finally appeared on his tight lips, he patted his shoulder again, and his tone slowed down. "Go, be careful in everything, and protect yourself first."
"Disciple, please remember Master's instructions!"
Chang Qing bowed and saluted, took a step back, said no more, turned into a stream of light, and quickly chased towards the Primordial Mountain door.
At this moment, in front of the mountain gate, all the selected disciples from each peak have gathered.
Six Paths Peak geniuses gather together, and those who can participate are all Nascent Soul who are the top ones among the Primordial Immortal Sect's peers.
Zhou Qi stood on the outside of the crowd, looking indifferent and out of tune with the lively atmosphere around him.
He has already seen the strength of the hundreds of people participating.
There are twenty-three people with the strongest strength, reaching the Nascent Soul Perfection level, including two old acquaintances.
Liu Yang and Rewards and Punishments Hall Yang Gu.
There are seven or eight weaker Nascent Soul Early Stages, most of whom are related households like Li Han.
Most of the rest are at the level of Nascent Soul Middle-to-Late Stage.
