I'm A Late Bloomer And I'm Immortal.

Chapter 180 218: Chen Baimao’s trick! New longevity order

A month of practice goes by in a blink of an eye.

Under the spotlight, the longevity sect's candidates for this session were finally announced.

The six Gold Core elders, because they are all figures from the previous generation or even the previous generation, have already participated in the election of longevity species.

Therefore, among the longevity candidates this time, no Gold Core monks were selected.

Of the twenty-six fake elixir overhaulers, five were listed as candidates.

Chen Dengming is among them.

This ratio is not very high.

The other four people selected are all senior in the longevity sect, with excellent strength and qualifications. They have performed outstandingly in many tasks. They can be said to be the strongest among the strongest, and are excellent in all aspects. Outstanding.

In terms of seniority, Chen Dengming had only just joined the sect a few years ago and was completely inferior to these four people.

In terms of qualifications, he has the highest qualifications of High Grade.

But after all, they have two spiritual roots that are incompatible with each other, so they don't have any advantage.

In terms of merit, although he has made several astonishing achievements since joining the sect, the killing of the Gold Core demon cultivator Blazing Blood Demon alone is worth the efforts of others to complete more than a dozen duties.

But after all, he still lacks some accumulation in this area.

Zeng's total contribution to the sect, even including the joint efforts with Qiao Zhaoxian and others to kill the Niutou General, had only performed three missions in total.

Among the five longevity candidates, in terms of merit, they are still only at the lower end.

Only in terms of hard power, Chen Dengming, a junior who has just joined the sect, maintains an absolute advantage. No one can match the power of reverse-cutting Gold Core.

"So, junior brother, the last time you participated in the mission, you destroyed the magic circle and also killed the mighty general. This is very important."

In Cave Mansion, He Yingyu and Chen Dengming were communicating.

Chen Dengming smiled and said, "I think so. If it hadn't been for my last duty performance, maybe my merits would not have been able to be selected as a candidate for the longevity species. After all, the accumulation of qualifications and merits is too shallow."

"Junior brother, you don't have to belittle yourself."

Nana, with her temples covered with jade and slender hair, came with tea, water, melons and fruits, and said with a smile, "Your last mission was also deliberately arranged by the sect. The purpose was to use you, the sect's geniuses, as our sect's geniuses." Bait, fishing out a few big fish from the demon cultivator camp.

That mission was concluded a month ago.

There is a traitor among the sects in our Eastern Domain, and the traitor has already been suspected by the alliance's senior officials.

Therefore, we will use the trick to betray your duty performance information through traitors, attracting the Gold Core Late Stage protector of the Demon Kingdom.

You also said that after that mission, the sect determined that you were not only responsible for destroying the magic circle and removing the mighty general, but also indirectly assisted in severely damaging the Gold Core Late Stage magic cultivator and picking out the traitors of the alliance."

"Not bad." Chen Dengming took the tea and nodded slightly.

The last mission was indeed a tortuous one.

Afterwards, when he returned to the clan to claim his credit, he learned the real story.

It turns out that the reason why he was given more than a dozen mission options and two mission routes were decided was because he knew there was a traitor, and it was out of protection for him.

As a result, the traitor in the alliance was indeed Divine Ability, and he was still able to determine the mission he chose and leak the information.

Fortunately, Qiu Feng and others from the sect had already been waiting for the cicadas, and the oriole was behind them, so they had already prepared backup plans.

Therefore, it seems that he has simply completed a task of destroying the formation, but in fact he has also exceeded other tasks, and the accumulated credit is not small.

"So, junior brother, since the sect has deliberately formulated these tasks for you, it is very likely that it also really wants to develop you in the direction of longevity. Does this count as giving you credit? Just so that you can get enough. Qualified as a candidate for longevity species."

He Yingyu sat down next to Chen Dengming and said with a smile and a wink.

Chen Dengming was startled, then smiled and shook his head, "Sister, your idea is too me-centered. If you are me-centered, I can still accept it. You said that all the senior leaders of the sect are me-centered, so what? Possibly? It just happens to happen."

He Yingyu blew the tea leaves and said helplessly, "You are just too humble.

In fact, if you don't have the ability, even if the sect's senior officials want to push you up, you won't be able to. "

"Okay. There is no need to discuss these. Now that the number of candidates has been determined, the next step is to start all aspects of the actual campaign. What will be the final result is unknown."

"I have confidence in you. I heard from Junior Brother Sang that you have a high reputation in the sect now. Many disciples, including the deacon, support your election as a longevity seed."

When Chen Dengming heard this, he burst into laughter and said, "The votes of the disciples and deacons in the sect are of course important, but about 40% of the voting rights are still in the hands of the elders and heads of the sect.

Unless I can directly obtain the votes of all the disciples and deacons in the sect, it mainly depends on the opinions of the elders and the head."

Although every disciple in the sect has the right to vote, there are actually differences in the proportion.

A vote cast by a disciple in the Qi Refining stage carries much less weight than a vote cast by a disciple in the Foundation Building Stage.

Elder Gold Core needless to say.

There were seven Gold Cores in the longevity sect, and one of them died during the war between the east and west regions.

There are currently six Gold Core elders in the Changshou Sect, plus Qiu Feng, the leader of the Changchun Sect of the Immortal Gate, and Cheng Zhenwei, the leader of the Changqing Sect, both of whom are directly under the Longshou Sect, there are eight Gold Cores.

These eight Gold Cores all have voting rights.

The leader, Xing Huiguang, is the ninth Gold Core and has the final voting rights, which is crucial.

Qiu Feng will certainly support Chen Dengming.

But it's hard to say for the other seven.

Especially the leader of the Evergreen Sect, Cheng Zhenwei, is actually the uncle of one of the candidates, Hua Zhenyu.

This person's vote must be for Hua Zhenyu.

Chen Dengming didn't take it too seriously.

He joined the sect too late. Even if he wanted to temporarily recruit some disciples and deacons at this time, he might not be able to recruit them.

Instead of wasting his mind on canvassing votes, it would be better to continue practicing with peace of mind and continue to consolidate his advantage in strength.

Because even if the voting aspect fails, it does not mean that it is a complete failure.

The selection of longevity species is ultimately based on comprehensive consideration of all aspects of the situation.

But he didn't know that because of this sudden Buddhist attitude, he disrupted the arrangements of some competitors.

In a Cave Mansion of the longevity sect, the study room in the back is separated by a long hanging bamboo. In the light inside, I can vaguely see a figure sitting on the large desk facing south. He is frowning and listening to several close disciples. Report the situation, and then explain it in a confusing way.

"He didn't rush to win over the elders and other deacons in the sect? This is not in line with his usual gift-giving style. Could it be that he noticed something?"

A junior brother said, "It's impossible for him to notice, but maybe someone should have reminded him of something."

The person behind the bamboo curtain nodded slightly and said with a faint smile, "Forget it, it doesn't matter if he doesn't act. In this way, my advantage will be greater, and I don't need him to make mistakes. In the voting process, I have a natural advantage. "

"That's right. After all, Senior Brother Hua, you have been in the Changshou Sect for more than sixty years, and your qualifications and connections here are already deep-rooted."

A disciple with a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks smiled complimentally and stepped on each other, "For example, Chen Baimao had just entered the sect a few years ago, and he needed to use various means to win people's hearts, but he didn't know that this was a taboo."

Hua Zhenyu, who was sitting at the desk, smiled lightly.

This is indeed his advantage and a way to deal with Chen Dengming.

Canvassing votes can be done openly and openly.

But it won't work if you do small tricks.

For example, giving gifts to bribe the elders, having private drinks with some high-status fake elixir disciples and deacons, etc.

This kind of thing is very taboo when the election of longevity species is approaching.

But Chen Baimao has done all these things.

And according to what he investigated, the other party had done it many times, which was all evidence.

It's not like he, Hua Zhenyu, has never done similar things before, but that was all done by Chen Guzi so many years ago.

Since he broke through the fake elixir more than ten years ago, he has never done anything like this again, and he no longer needs to do these things with his own hands.

Therefore, the same thing, done by different people at different times, will lead to two results.

“The voting process will be carried out from the beginning to the end of the longevity race.

I estimate that there will be some elders waiting and watching, wavering, so even if Chen Dengming doesn't make any move, you must choose a suitable time to spread the news and expand our advantage.

As for Tan Siyan, don't worry about him for the time being."

Hua Zhenyu calmly ordered, "Remember, never expose me. You can expose me, but I can't."

"Yes! Brother Hua, don't worry."

"Even if we are exposed, we will cleverly blame it on Senior Brother Tan. Hehehe, this is called diverting trouble from the east and letting them bite the dog."

Hua Zhenyu showed a smile of approval on his face, waved his hand, and dismissed a few people.

After the quota of long-lived species candidates is determined.

The benefits Chen Dengming enjoyed within the sect were also temporarily upgraded.

At least until the real longevity species is selected, he can always enjoy the treatment of a longevity candidate.

The first is that there is no need to participate in the performance of duties within five years.

This means that as long as the candidate for the longevity species has not been decided within five years, he can always practice peacefully in the sect without going anywhere.

Secondly, the monthly spiritual crystals and elixirs distributed through the door will be doubled.

You can enjoy a 20% discount when redeeming and learning the sect’s exercises, spells and Law Weapon Law Treasure.

Finally, and most importantly, longevity candidates can receive a longevity order.

Before the real longevity species is selected, this longevity order will not be taken back.

Chen Dengming has already tried the power of longevity order.

Although this thing may not be able to deal with Nascent Soul bosses, it is suitable for dealing with Gold Core Late Stage monks. It may also be able to deal with Gold Core Perfection monks.

This is a huge life-saving trump card.

Therefore, when Guan Chao personally handed the longevity order into his hands, Chen Dengming was very excited and didn't want to let go after he grabbed it.

"Haha, if you want to truly possess this longevity order, then wait until you choose the longevity seed."

Guan Chao saw the excitement in Chen Dengming's eyes and smiled, "Work hard, Uncle Guan is optimistic about you."

Chen Dengming nodded and was about to invite Guan Chao to stay for a casual meal, but was rejected by the other party.

"Now is the time when you are running for election. It is quite sensitive. Uncle Master, I came here to sit down and not eat as I was delivering the longevity order."

After saying this, Guan Chao stood up, took out a gift box from his storage bag, placed it on the table, and said with a smile.

"I remembered that I had drunk this Yanyutai Lingcha before, but it was not to my liking, so I decided not to try it.

When you grow up to be a longevity species, if you have good tea, don’t forget about your uncle. "

After saying this, Guan Chao looked at Chen Dengming thoughtfully and left with a smile.

Chen Dengming was stunned, not knowing what he meant, so he stood up immediately and sent the escort to the door of Cave Mansion.

Until Guan Chao left.

He carefully put away the longevity order, frowned deeply and returned to the Cave Mansion, concentrating on the spiritual tea on the table and thinking.

He Yingyu, who had avoided before, also walked out of the room at this time, looking at the spiritual tea on the table, her face changed slightly.

"Junior brother, what does Uncle Guan mean by this? Could it be that he has been offended somewhere? Does he not want to support you?"

"no."

Chen Dengming suddenly relaxed his brows, smiled, and shook his head with emotion.

"Uncle Guan Shi is reminding me to protect me. If I had offended him, he wouldn't have said those words just now.

It seems that someone has already caught my attention when I asked Heizi to give gifts to Uncle Master.

Otherwise, Uncle Guan would not have come to solve this trouble specifically by using the reason of sending the longevity order, and reminded me by the way. "

He Yingyu frowned, "Who could it be? Hua Zhenyu and the others are all possible."

Chen Dengming put his hands behind his back, walked to the chair and sat down, saying, "No matter who it is, there is no point in pursuing this now.

As soon as the longevity species campaign begins, these things will happen, which is already expected.

Compared with fighting with the same sect, this method is considered very gentle. "

He Yingyu sighed and walked behind Chen Dengming. She placed her slender hands on Chen Dengming's shoulders and massaged them slowly.

Her skills were so high that Chen Dengming couldn't help but close his eyes, his expression gradually relaxed and comfortable.

He Yingyu approached and said softly, "Junior brother, you never like to get involved in these troubles and struggles, but now you are involved again."

A smile appeared at the corner of Chen Dengming's mouth, and he closed his eyes and said calmly, "When you are in the world, you can't help yourself. I used to be used to it when I was in Nanxun, let alone in this Immortal Cultivation World?

In comparison, I already have many treasures that monks dream of, such as Taoism, and you, senior sister, what more can I ask for?

Let these disputes take their course. Now that they have happened, the more I do, the more mistakes I make. I can only wait and see what happens. "

"Yeah. I listen to you."

He Yingyu's dignified and bright face is blushing, and her heart is full of tenderness. She must step up her practice and follow Chen Dengming into the Gold Core, at least in the future.

as time flows.

Another two months have passed.

The five longevity candidates in the longevity sect have entered the voting process more than a month ago.

When many longevity sect disciples rushed back from all over the world, they would go to the House of Internal Affairs to vote in support of the longevity species in their minds.

After this month of voting statistics.

A total of more than 16,000 longevity sect disciples have participated in the voting, accounting for half of the total longevity sect disciples.

Among the five longevity candidates, Chen Dengming came from behind and ranked first with extremely high popularity.

The second-placed vote was Hua Zhenyu, who was more than a thousand votes behind Chen Dengming.

Tan Siyan came third in the vote, and the difference in votes between him and Hua Zhenyu was only a few hundred.

Huyan Shunbin, who ranked fourth in the other votes, and Rao Ling, who ranked fifth, both had a significant gap in votes compared to the previous three.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this generation of longevity will basically be born between Chen Dengming, Hua Zhenyu and Tan Siyan.

…

At this time, at the entrance of the House of Internal Affairs.

A group of longevity sect disciples who came to vote stood in two long lines and communicated in low voices.

"Junior Brother Ge, it's been a long time since I saw you back in the clan. Who are you going to vote for?"

"Of course I vote for Chen Baike, Master Chen Dengming.

Uncle Chen's deeds of killing two Gold Core demon cultivators have spread all over the country. I have often heard rumors about him outside. I have admired him for a long time. I came here all the time because I heard that he was running for longevity and needed votes. , I will do my best. "

"But didn't you always support Uncle Hua before?"

"Ah, this. This, I can only say that it is a pity. I support Master Uncle Hua because he has good qualifications, is old, and has made great contributions to the sect.

But after all, Master Hua did not lead our longevity sect to a new height. This time I will support Master Chen first. I will support Uncle Hua next time, for sure. "

"good."

A Qi Refining monk who deliberately dyed his hair on his temples white interrupted, "When we, the longevity sect disciples, were walking outside, we were always looked down upon by Heavenly Dao Sect disciples, saying that our longevity sect was like a nest of tortoises, we could only hide but not fight.

But now that Uncle Chen is born, those Heavenly Dao Sect bastards don't dare to talk nonsense anymore, do they? This is the new peak. "

“Now we can hold our heads high when we go out.”

Beside the mountain road outside the crowd, several Foundation Building monks listened to the discussions there, looked disapproving, and communicated quietly through the sound.

"People follow blindly. These bastards used to keep saying they supported Senior Brother Hua, but now it's better. They support whoever is in the limelight. They all support Chen Baimao."

"I can't help it. Chen Baimao is indeed very capable. Fortunately, he has relatively few qualifications and has not yet fully developed his connections. Otherwise, there would be no need to choose other candidates."

"Let's start, spread the news quietly, make it natural, don't be too intellectual, just enough to influence the subsequent votes of the elders."

"I got it, don't be nagging, we are not stupid. Let's work separately."

Several people quietly changed their appearance and clothing to use the breathing beads to calm their breathing.

Then they dispersed and blended into some corners of the crowd, revealing that Chen Dengming deliberately gave gifts to many elders, hosted many sect foundation buildings and fake elixirs to win over them, and deliberately slandered them.

At the same time, several audio and video beads that recorded real images were quietly sent to the Inspection Hall of the Changshou Sect.

In Chen Dengming's words, this can only be regarded as a relatively mild means.

But if small means are used well, they can indeed be used at the right time to solve big problems.

Dear readers, please don’t tie me to so and so all the time. I have already replied in a single chapter and in some comments. Lao Chen's breakthrough to Gold Core will be in the near future. Just ask. There is no need to embarrass me by saying that I suppressed the protagonist.

I was basically promoted as soon as I reached the point. I never suppressed it forcibly. I was often criticized for this, saying that I upgraded the protagonist too quickly. I became a Foundation Building in a few years. Shouldn't I be a loser? Therefore, some people abandoned the book. , then what should I do? All I can do is laugh.

Now here at Gold Core, based on the remaining proficiency calculation, it is six years (yesterday I wrote that it was eight years by mistake). It is impossible for me to count the proficiency as six years. If not, it is only three years, or it can be taken care of in one stroke. Six years later, the protagonist Gold Core, then these existing story lines in the middle will not be written? Cut them all off?

Or wait six years before choosing a longevity species. The protagonist can get six years of comfortable cultivation time for no reason, or get a certain adventure that suddenly shortens the six-year cultivation process. There are many logical irrationalities in this writing.

I can only give some reasonable arrangements (such as improving the state of mind and improving proficiency, or eating the meat of the Gold Core demon and improving proficiency), which are all within a reasonable range.

There is no need to tell others about Gold Core. I must have Gold Core.

According to the plot of the story, others have more than one million words. Do I have 900,000 words?

Just kidding, some books are still Foundation Building with more than 1.5 million words. Do I have to upgrade to match this word count? There is no need to force benchmarking, just separate the books.

Finally, thank you for your love! This reply is just a simple reply to explain, not a confrontation, not a quarrel with the readers, we are communicating in a friendly manner.
