Sanqing Palace. Inside a side hall.

"Have you found out the origin and background of that person?" A handsome man looked about thirty years old, but his expression was particularly calm. The majestic man stood at the door of the side hall, looked into the distance, and asked faintly.

A man bent slightly and replied in a respectful tone: "Report to the palace master, according to the situation found by his subordinates, the man had participated in the "Qianlong and Chicken Phoenix List" competition this year with another name. The name he used at that time was "Chen Kai", not "Chen Jing", and his subordinates could not determine which one of his real names were."

"In addition, there was a 24 or 25-year-old woman who participated in the 'Qianlong and Chicken Phoenix List' competition with him at that time. The two of them claimed to be husband and wife. According to the inn where they had lived, they did live in the same room."

"In addition, my subordinates also found that they had a conflict with a personal disciple of the Xuanshui Sect when they participated in the Qianlong and Chicken Phoenix List Competition in Jiangdu City. The "Chen Jing" took action to kill the personal disciple of the Xuanshui Sect and a deacon."

"Later, the 'Chen Jing' escaped with his wife and was chased by Zhao Wugui, the elder of the 'Xuanshui Sect'. After that, how did he escape from Zhao Wugui's pursuit? The subordinates did not ask Zhao Wugui, so they didn't know. However, according to what Elder Lan said, it was probably because he mastered a very powerful secret escape technique and forced himself to activate his life. He was able to escape, but because of the loss of energy, he fainted in the wilderness until he was rescued by the young palace master's frame..."

Hearing the man's report, the majestic man couldn't help but ask: "Why did that 'Chen Jing' conflict with the disciples of 'Xuanshui Sect'?"

"According to the subordinates' understanding, it seems that the disciple of the 'Xuanshui Sect' intends to occupy the woman beside Chen Jing. It was because the two of them had a conflict. In the end, Chen Jing sacrificed a bronze bell magic weapon to kill the disciple of the Xuanshui Sect and a deacon of the Xuanshui Sect together."

"In addition, my subordinates also learned that the woman next to Chen Jing showed that she seemed to have a water spirit body when she was conducting the talent test of the Hidden Dragon and Chicken Phoenix List Competition. I think this should be the reason why the disciple of Xuanshui Sect wanted to invade that woman..."

"Um..." the man nodded slightly and then asked again: "What about that woman? Was she captured by Zhao Wugui, or killed or escaped?"

"This... my subordinates don't know. At that time, when the elder of the 'Xuanshui Sect', Zhao Wugui, went to chase and kill them, no one else saw it. He could only ask Zhao Wugui to know this." The man replied.

"Yes." The man responded lightly and continued to ask: "So, has the background of this 'Chen Jing' been clearly found? It is probably difficult for ordinary people to cultivate such disciples at the age of just twenty."

"Report to the palace master, my subordinates have investigated this matter, but they can only find out that the two of them were the first to appear outside the Sangyuan City in Cangyuan Prefecture. The earliest people who had contact with them were the disciples of Feishuang Sect and Qiansha Sect. At that time, the young master of Qiansha Sect coveted the beauty of the daughter of the head of Feishuang Sect, so he had a ill intention and was encountered by the two of them. He rescued several disciples of Feishuang Sect."

"According to the disciples of Qianshamen who were present at that time, the two of them were dressed in unusual clothes when they appeared, and they were wearing strange costumes."

"Oh? What a strange costume?" the man asked curiously in surprise.

"This subordinate asked the disciples of Qiansha Sect and Feishuang Sect who had seen Chen Jing at that time to draw down all their clothes when they first met them..."

As he said that, the man took out a few rolled papers from his arms, then spread them in his hands, and held them in front of the man.

The man turned his head and looked at the paper portraits spread out in front of him. His eyes immediately showed a look of surprise. He couldn't help but reach out to grab the portraits and looked at each one.

Although the portraits are slightly different, the clothes are generally the same. Judging from the appearance of the man in the portrait, he is indeed the "Chen Jing".

After watching for a while, the man said lightly: "It's true that he is a strange costume. It seems that the origin of these two people should not be simple."

"I also think so. Except for the disciples of Feishuang Sect and Qiansha Sect, I have never found out that anyone else had seen these two people before. It seems that these two people appeared out of thin air..."

"Um..." The man narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the portraits in his hand, pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Sangyuan City seems to be not far from the 'Mi Tian Ran Forest'?"

The man next to him was stunned when he heard this, as if he didn't quite understand why the man suddenly asked this question, but he immediately came to his senses and replied: "Sangyuan City is indeed not far from the 'Mi Tianqi Forest', about a hundred miles."

After a pause, the man added: "The Feishuang Sect and Qiansha Sect mentioned by me just now are only a few dozen miles away from the 'Mitian Ran Forest'."

"But, does this have anything to do with those two?"

The man glanced at the man, but did not answer his words, but said lightly: "You should ask more about the chaos in the world."

The man couldn't help but feel nervous when he heard this. He hurriedly said, "Yes, my subordinates have violated the situation."

"Yes." The man responded dispensable, and then said: "You go to the 'Xuanshui Sect' to ask Zhao Wugui again, and find out whether the woman was killed, arrested, or escaped."

"If he is killed, there is no need to say anything. If he is caught, then you will bring the woman back to me. If Zhao Wugui doesn't catch the woman, you will try your best to find it. If you find the woman, you will bring it back to me..."

The man ordered.

Upon hearing this, the man quickly agreed: "Yes! Then I will go to the 'Xuanshui Sect' to ask?"

"Well, go!" The man waved his hand gently. After the man left, he looked down at the portraits in his hand and said to himself: "Such strange clothes and clothing obviously don't look like they were from the 'Kunlun Continent'. Could it be... they really came in the legendary 'secular world'?"

"But, wasn't the entrance and exit between the 'Kunlun Continent' and the secular world sealed by the brutal Ying Zulong with a large formation more than two thousand years ago? How could they come in from the outside world? And... the 'Mi Tian Da Formation' of Mi Tian Lu Form completely blocked the entrance and exit. Even if they really came from the outside world, how did they come through the 'Mi Tian Lu Formation'?"

The man had many questions in his heart. Looking at Chen Kai in the portrait, he gradually became more curious in his eyes.

He already knew it since Xuan Ling saved Chen Kai back to the practice cave heaven of the "Yuqing Palace". Especially when he learned that Xuan Ling had stayed Chen Kai for a long time, and even begged Elder Gu to let Chen Kai enter the "Yuquan Cave Heaven" with her to go to the "Yuquan Cave Heaven" for seclusion, he ordered someone to investigate all the information about Chen Kai.

The investigation now obviously surprised him. However, as Xuan Ling's father, as long as Chen Kai has no malice and will not have any bad effects on Xuan Ling, then under Xuan Ling's own wishes, he does not want to interfere too much.

Xuan Ling really needs someone who is similar to her to speak. Although there are many disciples who are similar to Xuan Ling in the Yuqing Palace, those people obviously can't talk to Xuan Ling. The most important thing is that Xuan Ling's identity makes those disciples too respectful to her and dare not speak a little bit of usurpation, and they dare not say a lot in front of Xuan Ling.

"It seems that I'm going to go to the 'Yuquan Cave Heaven' and see him in person. If... he really came in from the outside world, he should ask clearly how he could come in." Fu Yan murmured himself, his eyes fell on the portraits of Chen Kai and Luo Shuang in his hands again...

Yuquan Cave Heaven.

Chen Kai and Xuan Ling entered the process again to go into seclusion and practice. The rich spiritual energy quickly increased the true energy in Chen Kai's body, and the cultivation effect of a day was comparable to four or five days outside.

Thanks to the "Stars and Ten Thousand Transformations Art" practiced by Chen Kai is a top-level cultivation technique. Otherwise, even if the spiritual energy in the cave is more than ten times richer than outside, it will be difficult for ordinary people to practice here to achieve four or five times the effect outside.

It would be good if the general exercises can have two or three times the effect. After all, the speed of a person's cultivation is not only related to the richness of the outside world's spiritual energy, but also has a lot to do with the skills he practices.

No matter what kind of exercises it is, it has the ultimate efficiency of refining spiritual energy and reaches its limit. Then, no matter how rich the spiritual energy around it is, the cultivation speed will not be improved any further.

In fact, the "Stars and Ten Thousand Transformations Art" practiced by Chen Kai is certainly a top-level cultivation technique, but because this technique requires the refining of spiritual energy and star power at the same time, Chen Kai's cultivation effect in this cave with a spiritual energy of more than ten times that of the outside world cannot be compared with other top-level cultivation techniques of the same level.

If Luo Shuang practiced the Nine Heavens Xuan Water Art here, her cultivation speed would definitely increase by greater than Chen Kai, and at least it could achieve more than six or seven times the effect outside the cave.

This is where the "Stars and Ten Thousand Transformations" have both advantages and disadvantages.

Of course, for Chen Kai, it is very rare to be able to achieve four or five times the cultivation speed outside. His cultivation speed is already fast, and it will rise sharply like a rocket, and the true energy in the dantian Qi sea also slowly increases at a clear and perceptible speed.

According to his current cultivation progress, I believe that after leaving the seclusion this time, after three months, his true energy will inevitably be able to rise to the peak of the Yuan Hua period.

At that time, he only needs to repeatedly refine the true energy, slowly make the true energy reach a level that is sufficient to transform and crystallize, and condense the dragon and tiger golden elixir, and then he can naturally try to impact the Golden Pill Avenue. (To be continued)
