Longevity starts with learning

The hall was empty and not as majestic as Chu Mu had expected. It was just a few rows of tables and chairs, just like an ordinary meeting place in the secular world. Except that it was much emptyer, there was not much difference.

Wherever you look, there is only one person standing in front of the window on the cliff side of the main hall.

When the Nine Meridians Conference was held in Changshengtian, he had personally seen dozens of Nascent Soul masters from the Changsheng Sect, so it was not difficult to recognize who the person standing in front of the window was.

"Disciple has met the sect master."

Chu Mu quickly stepped forward and bowed.

The leader of the Changsheng Sect turned around and looked at it. With just one glance, Chu Mu's scalp tightened subconsciously. He felt that under this gaze, there was no secret left in his body!

"Such an injury has already hurt the root, right?"

Fortunately, the gaze only lasted for a moment, and then disappeared without a trace, and then a voice sounded.

"The sect master has a sharp eye. This disciple experienced a great disaster and fought for his life before he managed to escape by chance."

"It's hard for you."

The leader of the Changsheng Sect nodded, with a faint look in his eyes: "This time when the sect went to the outer sea, tens of thousands of disciples set out in large numbers, but only a few came back alive."

"Even the leader of your Zizhen lineage came back with severe injuries and has been in seclusion for many years now."

Hearing this, Chu Mu couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat. He thought back to the scene when the major demon clan alliance came, but it seemed a little natural.

Four powerful Nascent Souls and thousands of immortal disciples were defended by a fourth-level immortal flying boat, but they could not resist for too long. One can imagine how terrifying the overwhelming force was.

Immediately, the leader of the Changsheng Sect changed the topic: "There are two reasons for calling you here."

"First, during this trip to the sea, our sect lost tens of thousands of disciples. As a rule, all returning disciples must be examined to prevent any disciples from being controlled by the demon clan and sneaking into our sect."

"You are the true successor, and you are no exception."

"Second..."

Having said this, the leader of the Changsheng Sect paused for a moment, then looked at Chu Mu again and said, "Several fellow Taoists from the Tianji lineage have praised you a lot, saying that your level of formation is superb, and that you are no weaker than them."

"Is this statement... true or false?"

Chu Mu was slightly startled, and subconsciously recalled the several formation disks he had specially refined when Zhenjie Pavilion was first established in Beidou Seven Cities.

After arriving in Northern Xinjiang, it seemed that this was the only time he showed his level of formation.

It's just...what does the Changsheng Sect Master mean by this question?

"This disciple has also dabbled in Zhanfa..."

Chu Mu said in a deep voice: "If the sect needs it, this disciple will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

"There's no need for you to go through fire and water."

The leader of the Changsheng Sect chuckled lightly. He raised his hand, and a stream of light disappeared into Chu Mu's sea of ​​consciousness with lightning speed.

At the same time, a sentence also rang in Chu Mu’s ears.

"What's your opinion on this formation pattern?"

Chu Mu frowned slightly, and his consciousness flowed back to the formation pattern in the sea of ​​consciousness.

The formation patterns are incomplete and still vaguely visible, as if they were copied from a piece of stone with a piece of white paper.

After a while, Chu Mu slowly said:

"This array pattern should be a product of ancient times. If nothing else, it should be part of some kind of divine soul."

"But it is incomplete. If it is just this incomplete formation pattern, what can be seen is extremely limited..."

"It is probably certain that this array pattern should be used to control the soul, or even manipulate people's thoughts..."

The Changsheng Sect Master's eyes moved slightly and he said with a smile: "It seems that those Taoist friends from the Tianji lineage still have reservations."

"The level of your formation is not only not weaker than theirs, I'm afraid it's much better than them..."

"On your conclusion, they have been observing and studying it for several days!"

"Maybe it's because the seniors are good at different things."

"This disciple happens to know a lot about the Divine Forbidden Path..."

"Hahaha……"

"There are many rumors from the outside world that you, the ninth true successor, are a little too humble. It seems that this is not false."

The leader of the Changsheng Sect smiled heartily, and then changed the topic suddenly: "Do you know where this formation pattern comes from?"

Chu Mu's mind was spinning, and a vague guess emerged in his mind. However, he did not make a guess. Instead, he bowed his hands and said, "Please tell me, sect master."

"Where did the trouble for your group outside the sea come from? That's where this formation pattern came from."

The master of the Changsheng Sect said in a faint voice: "The Master of the Peeping True Pulse has returned, and he has also brought back four divine souls."

"Two of the souls just emerged from the ban, and the souls destroyed themselves. The remaining two were banned in time and placed in a secret realm to isolate themselves from the world."

"But those two monster souls are quite strange. I have tried to search for them, but found nothing. It's like the souls are blank."

"After careful inspection, I noticed the existence of this formation pattern."

"All the memories of those two monster souls are sealed by this divine ban..."

"Over the years, several Taoist friends from the Tianji lineage have been trying to crack it, but until now, there has not been much progress."

Chu Mu frowned and subconsciously recalled the jade slip he had just obtained from Yan Qiuling.

When he returned from Waihai, he ordered Yan Qiuling to collect information on current immortal cultivators. To be precise, he was to collect information on the evolution of the situation after the changes in Waihai.

According to the records on the jade slip, since the calamity in the outer sea, the alliance of the three races has undoubtedly shocked the entire world of immortality.

The Changsheng Sect mobilized in large numbers, and dozens of Nascent Souls came to the outer sea, and the Vast Sea Alliance followed closely.

In the Demon-Suppressing Islands, they confronted the Alliance of Three Clans.

In this world, there is obviously no impenetrable wall.

With such a large-scale war, there is no doubt that it will not take long for the news of the Heavenly Palace ruins to spread to the entire Xiuxian world as the Changsheng Sect and the Alliance of Three Clans of the Demon Clan confront each other.

The dispute centered on the Demon-Suppressing Islands naturally intensified. After less than half a year of confrontation, a war started, which has not stopped until now.

The space portal surrounding the Heavenly Palace ruins, in the boundless sea, not only dyed the sea red, but also fed countless sea monsters with broken limbs.

The most important thing is that in such a long-lasting war, the Changsheng Sect did not hesitate at all and broke through the terrifying window paper early.

The news that the Alliance of Three Clans and the Holy Beast of Tianyan, or the suppressed Sand Tail Scorpion Mother, had colluded with each other, and it had spread throughout the Xiuxian world.

But the fact is that the spread of this news did not cause much waves.

After all, that catastrophe is too far away from now.

It is so long ago that most traces of the Sand Tailed Scorpion Mother catastrophe have been wiped out.

For most cultivators, the so-called catastrophe is basically unknown.

Even if they know a little, it is just a few rumors that are difficult to distinguish true from false.

Although the Changsheng Sect has vigorously promoted it, there is a fact that is undoubtedly unavoidable.

In this world of cultivation, the truth is always in the hands of the strong.

The strong are respected!

What the strong say is the truth.

The existence of the Changsheng Sect is a strong one in the Great Chu cultivation world.

But outside the Great Chu cultivation world, it is just a reputation.

The strength of the Three Clan Alliance is obviously not weaker than that of the Changsheng Sect, and it can even be said to be much stronger.

Not to mention, all these disputes are in the outer sea, in the lair of the demon clan.

These are just some rumors without actual evidence, and at most they have only attracted more people and demons to pay attention to the alliance of the three clans.

At least for now, no strong man or any force has mobilized troops to attack the giant behind the alliance of the three demon clans and become an enemy of such a giant just for this rumor spread by the Changsheng Sect.

All attention seems to be on the ruins of the heavenly palace.

Interests are attractive.

There are not a few who want to get a piece of the pie.

Judging from the information recorded in the jade slip, the situation in the outer sea, under this piece of corruption, can be said to have completely escaped the control of the Changsheng Sect...
