Luo Zhen's Growing Momentum

The entrance to the core formation of the Cloud Heaven Holy Land has been opened.

Huang Yunya led the way, with the other elders and disciples following behind, standing to the side of the core formation.

There are many different situations when it comes to welcoming someone.

If a line of soldiers greets someone from a great distance, it usually indicates an imbalance of power between the two sides, with the weaker side welcoming the stronger one.

Although the Sword Immortal is powerful, his status as a member of a sacred land is also considerable.

This is enough for now.

Below, countless disciples looked up at this scene:

"The Holy Lord and many top elders are waiting; has something major happened?"

"They must be waiting for that flying ship. Who are the people on that flying ship that would make the Holy Lord appear in person?"

"We'll see. The people on the airship will definitely come down, and then... Hmm, could they be our own people? They've passed the defensive array, why haven't they put the airship away yet?"

"Not outsiders? They flew directly into the core area right in front of the Holy Lord and the others. What are they doing standing here? Aren't they welcoming them? Are they protecting them?"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, all that was expected was to be in vain.

The flying boat entered the core area of Cloud Heaven Holy Land directly.

You can't see who's up there at all.

However, judging from the Holy Lord and the elders, they didn't seem to have much of a reaction to this.

Based on experience, it's likely that some important figure from the Holy Land has returned.

In fact, Huang Yunya and others did react.

It was rather impolite of Feizhou to just barge in like that.

You should know that they were all waiting on the sidelines.

But since it has already happened, it's impossible to blame anyone for it.

It's quite normal for sword cultivators to have somewhat eccentric personalities.

After closing the entrance, Huang Yunya led his men toward the flying boat.

Behind them, in the void, the two from the Shadow Hall stopped moving.

A light flickered in their eyes as they watched the scene unfold before them, memorizing it and storing it in the memory stone.

There are Saint within the Yuntai Sacred Land, and with the addition of a defensive array, they cannot enter.

But the information we have now is sufficient.

The flying boat returned and headed straight for the core area, where the Holy Lord and other elders personally appeared, demonstrating the importance attached to it.

Furthermore, given that the other party possessed the skills of even the spear Saint from the Cloud Heaven Holy Land, it's clear that their identity is extraordinary.

At this point, the authenticity of this news can be confirmed.

"I've been riding for too long, I've gotten a little lazy."

On the flying boat, Lu Changzhi slowly stood up and spoke.

Upon hearing this, Huang Yunya laughed and said:

"You're too kind, senior. A banquet has been prepared in the hall. Would you like to come along?"

With a flash of light, the flying boat was put away, and Lu Changzhi nodded slightly.

Then, everyone walked into the hall.

"So it was only the Holy Lord himself who came out?"

After taking his seat, Lu Changzhi felt a slight stirring in his heart.

It was somewhat surprising that Huang Yunya's father didn't show up.

It seems that the Cloud Heaven Holy Land doesn't place too much importance on Sword Immortal.

In fact, it's not about whether it's important or not.

The incident with Ge Duantian made Huang Qianzhou realize that there was something wrong with his mindset.

He is currently in seclusion, trying to resolve this problem.

Otherwise, if this causes problems with one's state of mind, it will have a fatal impact on subsequent spiritual practice.

Without giving it much thought, Lu Changzhi took the initiative to ask:

Has the matter of the Blood Devil ever occurred again?

Upon hearing this, Huang Yunya spoke up:

"Since the last time it was dealt with, the Blood Devil has not been seen again."

As he spoke, he raised his wine glass and said:

"I haven't had a chance to properly thank you for what happened last time, senior. On behalf of the Holy Land, I offer you a toast."

Lu Changzhi nodded, gave a soft "hmm," and picked up his wine glass.

The other elders and disciples also raised their wine cups.

"If it weren't for your earlier lending of my sword, senior, the situation that day would have been dire."

Fang Ling also raised his wine glass, his expression solemn.

Lu Changzhi nodded in agreement.

He saw through it but didn't say anything; however, Fang Ling's aura did catch Lu Changzhi's attention.

After finishing his drink, Lu Changzhi spoke up and asked:

Judging from your aura, are you injured?

This is quite obvious, and the injury must be quite serious.

Fang Ling nodded, shook his head with a wry smile, and said:

"There were some unexpected incidents earlier, but fortunately, none of them were life-threatening."

This unexpected event was none other than the unforeseen turn of events from the previous Lightning Tribulation.

Just then, a spatial rift appeared where he was standing.

And its location is quite dangerous.

It faces diagonally upwards towards the dantian (lower abdomen), and to the left towards the man's most intimate area.

It appears diagonally from back to front.

You could say it was luck, but instead, this kind of misfortune befell you.

To say it was just bad luck...

Hey.

In such a high-risk area, they managed to squeeze in almost every available space.

Furthermore, he handled the danger very well thanks to his calm and collected demeanor.

If you move it horizontally from its original position.

Leaning to one side could very likely result in a broken leg.

If it goes to the other side, it's very likely that both legs will be broken.

If it's angled, even if you dodge backward, you'll likely lose half of the accessory.

Given this situation, coupled with the intense pain and the possibility of further danger from all sides, [the individual's condition is particularly precarious].

Most people will likely have to pay some price for it.

But he handled it well.

Slanting forward, nothing that shouldn't be missing was missing.

However, the injury was deep, which inevitably affected his breathing.

And, because of the wound.

I'm starting to feel a bit restless these days.

Lu Changzhi nodded, saying nothing.

However, his gaze was drawn to Luo Zhen, who was sitting next to Fang Ling.

Upon seeing Luo Zhen, Lu Changzhi was slightly startled.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't shocked.

The last time I saw Luo Zhen was when the Cloud Heaven Holy Land was preparing to take the Five Symbols Sect as an affiliated force.

That time, because of his deliberate provocation, Luo Zhen gained the "Nine Deaths and One Life" talent and became a gardener himself.

How long has it been?

The [Qualification] section has changed from the previous High-Grade Spirit Rank to Low-Grade Saint Rank.

That's an exaggeration.

This rate of improvement is even faster than consuming the Marrow Cleansing Fruit.

The level of understanding has also improved considerably.

"It feels like the aftereffects are getting stronger."

Lu Changzhi thought to himself softly.

Fang Ling's injuries were most likely inflicted by Luo Zhen.

"But."

Lu Changzhi thought of something and asked the system:

"Shouldn't Nine Deaths and One Life? He seems perfectly fine to me."

If he remembered correctly, he also received something from Luo Zhen when the Cloud Heaven Holy Land suffered a calamity.

In his current state, it doesn't seem like he's gone through anything that could have resulted in Nine Deaths and One Life.

"Reporting to Master."

System audio channels:

The time is not yet right.

Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi was surprised.

Could this thing possibly be saved up and made into a big one?!

Lu Changzhi's attention fell on Luo Zhen, and Luo Zhen sensed it.

Huang Yunya and Fang Ling, among others, clearly had their own guesses, and their expressions shifted slightly.

At this moment, Qin Jiuxiao suddenly spoke up, picked up his wine glass, and said with a smile:

"Jiuxiao toasts to Senior, thanking you for saving my life."

With a single sentence, he drew everyone's attention.

Luo Zhen, who was just thinking about how to start the conversation, visibly darkened his eyes upon hearing these words.

Qin Jiuxiao actually stole his thunder!

He immediately raised his arm and reached for the wine glass.
