Chapter 178

"Martial Nephew Chen, as a true disciple of our sect, you must be mindful of your status. You must draw a clear line between yourself and traitors like Chen Ying 'er."

Sect Master Yunyue reminded him meaningfully.

"Don't worry, Sect Master. When we meet on the battlefield in the future, I will not show mercy. "

Chen Yu said expressionlessly.

Sect Master Yunyue nodded. Of course, he did not believe that Chen Yu would take the initiative to kill this woman.

However.

Chen Yu had Lu Tiezu's mental sword imprint on him. If he tried to defect to Demon Bone Palace, there was no need for Yunyue Gate to deal with him.

"Chen Ying 'er's luck is good. She signed a life-and-death contract with Zi Hu. She is valuable to Shuiyue Sect and even Demon Bone Palace …"

Chen Yu thought to himself.

Demon Bone Palace was currently on the verge of unifying the Chu Sect world. It would be much more comfortable to defect to them than to Yunyue Gate.

In comparison.

Chen Yu's situation was ten times worse than Chen Ying 'er's.

Thinking of this.

He no longer worried about Chen Ying 'er. He focused on his own situation.

Now.

Chen Yu was most worried about one question: Could Yunyue Gate and Ironsword Gate last for two months?

According to Elder He Mao's plan.

Chen Yu would use the ancient transportation array under the Serene Moon Ancient Well on the night of the full moon two months later.

"If Demon Bone Palace destroys Ironsword Gate and Yunyue Gate within two months, or occupies the area where the Serene Moon Ancient Well is located …"

Chen Yu frowned slightly.

If that was the case, it would be very dangerous for him to enter the Serene Moon Ancient Well and use the transportation array.

"No need to panic, everyone."

Sect Master Yunyue spoke with a smile.

"Although Shuiyue Sect has betrayed the three sects, our remaining two sects will welcome a strong ally."

"Strong ally? Could it be … "

"That's right. The Qi Nation's Skysword Sect!"

Sect Master Yunyue was calm.

"Skysword Sect!"

As soon as these three words were spoken, the tense and oppressive atmosphere in the hall was instantly dispersed by a wave of pleasant surprise.

Everyone knew.

Among the three nearby states of Qi, Chu, and Yan, Qi was the strongest.

As for the High Sword Sect, it was the number one sect in the Qi Nation. Its strength was above that of the Bone Devil Palace.

Fifty years ago.

The Bone Devil Palace was on the verge of unifying the Chu Nation's Sect world. It was mainly because of the Soaring Sword Sect's overbearing interference that the Bone Devil Palace's efforts fell short of success.

"Of course, although the Towering Sword Sect is stronger than the Bone Devil Palace, the situation in the Qi Nation is not stable either."

Sect Master Yunyue paused.

Seeing that the morale of the crowd had recovered somewhat, he heaved a sigh of relief.

"Then the High Sword Sect can only send out a portion of the assistance. If our Yunyue Gate wants to survive this calamity, we have to rely on our own unity to fight."

Sect Leader Yunyue scanned the crowd.

He exchanged a look with Elder Mao and started to deploy the troops.

Not long after.

More than half of the middle and upper echelons in the hall, and even the true disciples, had been assigned relevant tasks.

Most of the members were sent to the battlefield as reinforcements.

A portion of the members were sent to the periphery of the Yunyue Gate to guard some important resources nearby.

Soon, it was Chen Yu's turn.

"Martial Nephew Chen, your strength is comparable to an ordinary Qi Transformation Postnatal cultivator. You will lead a small team to guard the Iron Ridge Mine … "

Sect Leader Yunyue instructed.

"Thank you, Sect Leader."

Chen Yu hurriedly agreed. He was not surprised at all.

This mission was originally part of his and Elder Mao's plan.

The Iron Ridge Mine was relatively close to the Nether Moon Ancient Well. It was only a hundred miles away.

Although it was not far from the frontlines, it was more conducive to the plan.

If he was at the frontlines …

There would be people supervising the battle on the battlefield. It would be quite troublesome to leave at any time and go to the Nether Moon Ancient Well.

This time, Elder Mao's seniority in the Sect allowed him to easily transfer Chen Yu to a suitable position.

An hour later, in front of the Heavenly Cloud Hall.

"Senior and junior brothers, I will be the leader of this mission to the Iron Ridge Mine. I hope you will cooperate …"

Chen Yu stood in front of a group of people.

There were only a dozen people in this group, including Chen Yu. There were Viscera Refinement and Meridian Illuminating cultivators.

Among the new disciples, there were familiar faces like Fang Haofei and Li Dakui.

The overall formation was slightly weaker than the one in the Northern Mountain Spirit Garden.

Other than Chen Yu, there was also a deputy leader. He was a peak Viscera Refinement cultivator with a long face. He was about thirty years old.

The long-faced youth sized up Chen Yu, the leader, with a slightly doubtful gaze.

In terms of cultivation and experience, he was better than Chen Yu.

Not only him.

There were also two senior Viscera Refinement cultivators who were not convinced by Chen Yu.

"Senior Brother Chang, this kid got lucky in the Blood Burial Garden and became a true disciple. Does that mean he can suppress you?"

"That's right. As a leader, not only do you need strength, but you also need experience. "

The two senior disciples stood in front of the long-faced youth and said.

The youth surnamed Chang shrugged and said.

"Since it's the sect master's arrangement, we can only obey. However, I doubt the rumor that this person is comparable to a Qi Transformation Postnatal cultivator. "

...

Two hours later.

At this time, Chen Yu led a group of people to assemble at the mountain's entrance.

After a long time.

Senior Brother Chang and the other two senior Viscera Refinement cultivators arrived late.

Some junior Meridian Illuminating cultivators were angry, but they didn't dare to say anything.

"What's wrong with the three of you? You're almost two hours late."

Li Dakui said unhappily.

Since Chen Yu was the leader of the team, as his Senior Brother, he naturally had to support him.

"Chen, this is only the first day of the mission, and Senior Brother Chang and the other two are already not giving you face. I think we have to show them who's boss. "

Fang Haofei said in a low voice.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Senior Brother Chang walked over expressionlessly. He didn't look embarrassed at all.

Immediately.

The atmosphere on the field was a little tense.

"Oh, before we left, we forgot to prepare medicinal pills for recovery and healing."

An old Viscera Refinement cultivator beside Senior Brother Chang laughed to ease the tense atmosphere.

"Just this once."

Chen Yu frowned slightly and waved his hand to let the three enter the formation.

He didn't listen to Fang Haofei's suggestion and immediately showed them who's boss.

After all.

Chen Yu originally wanted to go to the Serene Moon Ancient Well through this mission, and didn't want to be overbearing and harsh.

"Hmph! Why are you acting like a leader, you're just a little late. "

Another wily old fox in the middle stage of the Viscera Refinement Realm muttered.

Then.

In the next two days of the journey, Chen Yu was a little regretful.

On the way.

Senior Brother Chang and the other two had a lot of things to do, dragging their feet. After a while, they had to pee, and after a while, they had to hunt for wild animals.

Chen Yu naturally wouldn't satisfy the three of them.

However, the three of them were very experienced, and it was not good to use such a small matter to attack them.

"When I reach the Iron Mountain Range, I won't look at it. The supplementary materials for the fourth body tempering formula of the Bronze Statue Skill have also been gathered... "

Chen Yu really couldn't be bothered to compete with the three of them.

...

On this day.

The team led by Chen Yu arrived at the Iron Mountain Range.

The Iron Mountain Range originally had a Houtian Realm expert guarding it.

However.

Now that the Yunyue Gate was facing a life and death crisis, this Houtian Realm expert was transferred to the front line and replaced by Chen Yu.

In other words.

After Chen Yu arrived at the mine, he was the local tyrant.

He had the highest position.

"Leader Chen, this way please..."

On the side of the mine, there was an old deacon, a bearded old man, who was also at the peak of the Viscera Refinement Realm.

This old deacon was much more tactful and gentle. He didn't look down on Chen Yu, this new leader, and at least maintained a superficial obedience.

Under the old deacon's lead.

Chen Yu took a quick stroll around the Iron Ridge Mine.

He didn't care about the Spirit Mine here, but the surrounding terrain for his future plans.

In the Iron Mountain Range, apart from some low-grade Spirit Ores, there was a special product called "Iron Xiang Wood".

This "Iron Xiang Wood" was a supplementary material for forging various artifacts, and it could also be used to forge some semi-artifact rod type weapons.

Seeing that Chen Yu didn't care about the number of ores and Iron Xiang Wood, the old deacon let out a sigh of relief.

The smile on his face became brighter as he enthusiastically accompanied Chen Yu.

"Senior Brother Chang, this Chen Yu is too slow. If I were the leader, I would definitely hit this old man's bamboo pole. "

"Managing this important place with resources, even a little bit of money is enough for us to work for half a year."

The two old men next to Senior Brother Chang had a pained look on their faces.

On the same night.

Meanwhile, Chen Yu's team had arranged accommodation for them at the Iron Ridge Mine.

In the end.

When arranging the accommodation, Senior Brother Chang and the other two were very domineering. They took the three best individual courtyards.

Chen Yu was too slow to react, and he ended up staying in a separate stone house.

Li Dakui and Fang Haofei were even worse. They lived in simple wooden houses.

"Junior Brother Chen, you're too patient. If you don't want to fight, let us do it. "

Li Dakui and Fang Haofei couldn't hold back.

"Senior Brothers, if you have a 655% chance of winning, I won't stop you. But don't let me catch you fighting. "

Chen Yu said indifferently.

Senior Brother Chang and the other two were experienced, so it wasn't against anything for them to take the best living environment.

This wasn't enough to start a fight.

"Fine."

Fang Haofei sighed and could only give up for now.

The two of them didn't have a 655% chance of winning against Senior Brother Chang and the other two.

In the Blood Burial Garden.

Fang Haofei had obtained a Nether Water Ink Lotus from Chen Yu and had successfully broken through to the late-stage Viscera Refinement Realm.

However.

Senior Brother Chang had been at the peak Viscera Refinement Realm for many years and was only half a step away from the Qi Transformation Realm.

On the first day of the Iron Mountain Range.

Chen Yu hastily arranged everyone's tasks and fell asleep immediately after feeling exhausted.

The next morning.

Chen Yu organized the materials in his hands.

He had almost gathered all the materials for the fourth Body Tempering Technique.

The only thing he lacked was the Ice Lotus.

It was one of the three main ingredients, "Snow Lotus". There were two stalks of 605 years old.

The main material had to be two 755-year-old.

Chen Yu planned to use two 605-year-old Ice Snow Lotuses to barely replace one 755-year-old one.

In this way.

Hence, Chen Yu had no choice but to concoct the fourth prescription.

He didn't lack the Moon Spirit Ore and the 755-year-old Fire Spirit Ginseng, but he lacked the Ice Snow Lotus.

In the morning.

Chen Yu then concocted a brand new bottle of Body Tempering Solution.

Just when Chen Yu was about to drink a mouthful of Body Tempering Liquid and try to break through to the higher level of the Copper Statue Body.

"Leader Chen, something bad has happened!"

"Senior Brother Chang and the other two are fighting with Senior Brother Fang and Senior Brother Li."

Two Meridian Enlightening Realm disciples rushed over.

"Fang Haofei and Li Dakui are really fighting with Senior Brother Chang and the others?"

Chen Yu was stunned.

At this moment, the sound of fighting and shouting came from outside.
