Chapter 76

Seeing Chen Yu's surprise, Kunling's expression was cold. "Chen, be careful! The sect has issued a frontline mission. If there aren't enough participants, we may forcefully send some disciples to support … "

Frontline mission?

The deep meaning and coldness in Kunling's eyes gave Chen Yu a bad premonition.

If he was unlucky and was sent to the frontline to support, the danger was not small.

In the battlefield against the Bone Demon Sect, even those at the Organs Refinement stage did not have the confidence to survive. Those below the Organs Refinement stage were practically cannon fodder.

"Chen, don't be scared by him."

Qiu Xin 'er covered her mouth and laughed lightly. She was so beautiful that Kunling was dazed.

"It's like this. For new disciples like us, even if we are unlucky, we will at most be sent to carry out some logistics or guard missions. It's unlikely that we will go to the frontline to fight. Unless, the situation has reached a critical point! "

Qiu Xin 'er explained with a smile.

Chen Yu heard this and heaved a sigh of relief.

These disciples who were not over 70 years old were all of the new generation.

Usually, those who went to the frontline were mostly members of the older generation.

The new generation was a batch of seedlings that the Sect was nurturing. They would usually not be sent to carry out dangerous missions. Especially the elite disciples that were being nurtured.

"Oh right."

Before leaving, Qiu Xin 'er looked back and smiled. "Chen should be participating in the' Hidden Lake Gathering 'in ten days, right? I heard from Yue 'er that you're worth quite a lot now. "

"Hidden Lake Gathering? I should be participating. "

Chen Yu nodded.

He had heard of the 'Hidden Lake Gathering' when he was still an outer sect disciple.

The Hidden Lake Gathering was a neutral faction in the Chu Country that specialized in dealing with the cultivation world of the Sect. It also provided a stable and fair trading venue.

This Hidden Lake Gathering would hold an auction every month.

At the same time. There would be another large auction every six months.

Coincidentally at this time.

The Hidden Lake Gathering's semi-annual large auction was about to begin.

In Chen Yu's hands was a large sum of primeval stones, eighty year old Blood Lingzhi, and precious Qi Accumulation Pills.

"It just so happens that I want to use the third body tempering formula. I need even more precious resources."

Chen Yu made a decision.

Of the prescriptions provided in the 《Bronze Statue Skill》, the first was a prescription for commoners, and the second was a prescription for the Bull's Marrow.

The first two prescriptions were basically ineffective for Chen Yu.

Right now.

He decided to use the third body tempering formula. The materials it required were several times more precious than the second!

"Chen Yu."

After leaving Qiu Xin 'er's garden, the purple-robed Kun Ling suddenly blocked Chen Yu's path.

"Senior Brother Kun, what is the meaning of this?"

Chen Yu felt a surging pressure. It was not only because of the other party's tyrannical inner breath, but also because of a kind of mental pressure.

His heart was certain that the other party was at least in the late stage of the Viscera Refinement Realm. He was even stronger than Yi Yunfei and Chang Xuan.

"As for the 'Ice Heart Tear' in your hand, I will give you a semi-precious weapon, two thousand substandard primordial stones, and three kilograms of spirit ores that are as valuable as meteoric iron."

Kunling went straight to the point.

His eyes were burning as he stared at the crystal pendant that Chen Yu was wearing.

Kunling knew that Qiu Xin 'er loved this pendant very much. She only traded it to Chen Yu because she was in urgent need of meteoric iron.

Now.

Kunling planned to redeem the 'Ice Heart Tear'.

"No."

Without hesitation, Chen Yu rejected the offer.

The Ice Heart Tear was a form of protection on his body. It was very rare.

Because he practiced the 《Cloud Fiend Fist》, his killing intent was extremely strong. The dangerous nature of this martial art could easily cause his mind to be blinded by the killing intent and go berserk.

Moreover, the Ice Heart Tear could also defend against unpredictable mental attacks. This was a field that Chen Yu was unfamiliar with.

"Chen Yu, this is a chance I'm giving you. If you don't have the confidence … "

Kunling's face was handsome and cold, and the corner of his mouth curled into a cold smile.

Baffling!

Chen Yu ignored this person and went to Zongwu Hall.

He had come here to collect the rare medicinal ingredients required for the third prescription.

In the end.

After searching for a while and spending some contribution points and primeval stones, he only managed to buy two or three supplementary materials.

The third body tempering prescription had two "main materials".

They were: Fierce Snake King's Gallbladder, Hundred Year Earth Spirit Ginseng.

[Fierce Snake King's Gallbladder]: At least comparable to the Blood Python and Fierce Bird King's gallbladder that day in the Cloud Abyss Mountain Range!

[Earth Spirit Ginseng]: A rare earth attribute spirit ginseng that needs to be at least a hundred years old. The older it is, the better the medicinal effect.

"As for your other materials, it shouldn't be too difficult to buy them here. Only the hundred year old [Earth Spirit Ginseng] is too rare and abnormally precious. Go to the Hidden Lake and try your luck. "

A grey-robed deacon suggested.

"Thank you."

Chen Yu nodded his head.

The other main material [Fierce Snake King's Gallbladder], according to the Zongwu Hall deacon, if he was lucky, he might be able to find it after a period of time.

In the Sect.

It wasn't too difficult for some strong Viscera Refinement elite disciples and direct disciples to join hands and kill the Fierce Snake King.

"Fierce Snake King's Gallbladder. Three thousand contribution points and two thousand subgrade primeval stones each. "

Chen Yu gave a suitable purchase price.

Of course.

Zongwu Hall would also take five percent of the primeval stones and contribution points from it.

Chen Yu placed a total of ten thousand contribution points and seven thousand subgrade primeval stones here to temporarily buy three 'Fierce Snake King's Gallbladders' and other supplementary materials.

After leaving Zongwu Hall.

Chen Yu returned to the outer sect encampment and went to Tong Yuling's residence.

Tong Yuling wasn't there. According to the maidservant in the courtyard, she seemed to have returned to her family for an urgent matter.

"Tong Yuling, why is she looking for me?"

Chen Yu returned with a puzzled expression.

In the following days, Chen Yu began to cultivate his cultivation method and martial techniques.

At the same time.

He was secretly paying attention to the latest situation of the 'Bone Demon Palace's invasion'. After all, this was a major event in the Chu Sect. It might affect his safety and fate.

However.

The news from the frontlines was extremely unfavorable.

The three sects' alliance had only managed to slow down the speed of the Bone Demon Palace's invasion. Moreover, they had suffered repeated defeats and suffered heavy losses.

No one could be certain that the Bone Demon Palace would not attack the three sects and the Yunyue Gate.

Recently.

Many of the new disciples had been transferred to some of the Sect's strategic locations to provide support and defense.

"Do you know? Our Yunyue Gate's two or three subordinate families were ambushed by the Bone Demon Palace a few days ago and suffered heavy casualties. "

"Shh! Be quiet. I heard that some of the Bone Demon Palace's disciples have infiltrated the secular forces near our sect. "

"Say, what if the Bone Demon Palace attacks here? Or we'll be transferred to the frontlines … "

There was no lack of private discussions in the inner sect encampment.

A tense and oppressive atmosphere pervaded the Yunyue Gate.

The frontlines were unfavorable.

It brought a lot of pressure to the disciples of the Yunyue School. Later on, many disciples were rejected when they applied for leave to return home.

"The Sect is investigating the mole. Any disciple who leaves the sect without permission will be killed without mercy!"

The Yunyue Gate practically announced a semi-lockdown.

Some disciples would be strictly interrogated when they went out, even if they were carrying out normal missions.

…

Several days later.

Two black-robed enforcers arrived at Chen Yu's courtyard.

"Is Chen Yu around?"

"Enforcer Senior Brothers, what can I do for you?"

Chen Yu walked out of the pavilion and saw the two enforcers exuding a murderous aura. His heart trembled as he realized something.

"In half a month. You will be part of the third batch of reinforcements and head to the Northern Mountain Spirit Garden. Strengthen the defenses of the spirit garden and prevent the Bone Demon Palace from ambushing us. "

One of the enforcers announced.

The announcement of the mission made Chen Yu's head thump.

Although this was not a massacre at the frontlines, it was still a batch of disciples who were unlucky to be transferred.

Inexplicably.

Chen Yu recalled the profound and abnormal look in Kunling's eyes a few days ago.

Could it be …

Kunling had long expected the transfer of the mission. Or perhaps he knew something in advance.

Chen Yu realized.

Someone might have interfered with his transfer of the mission!

However …

To think that someone interfered with the mission and mobilized inner sect disciples, the person who did it in the dark definitely had a deep foundation in the Yunyue Gate.

After the two enforcers left.

Chen Yu held a token in his hand. His expression was uncertain.

He had treasured weapons and Qi Accumulation Pills on him. He was quite valuable, but he was only at the Illuminating Pulse stage. His position in the inner sect was not stable.

"The Sect's transfer of the mission cannot be disobeyed. Otherwise, you will face severe punishment. Your cultivation might be crippled!"

Chen Yu took a deep breath.

The invasion of the Bone Demon Palace not only brought crisis and pressure to the three sects.

As a disciple of the Sect, Chen Yu would also face a series of risks and challenges in this storm.

Of course, this could also be an opportunity.

The mandatory mission itself would have generous rewards. Killing the enemy would also have rewards, and the spoils of war would belong to him.

The transfer of the mission would take place in half a month.

In the final moments, Chen Yu could still increase his strength!

"Hidden Lake Meeting … there are still a few days left."

Chen Yu was looking forward to the Hidden Lake Meeting that would take place in a few days.

As long as he gathered the Snake Gall Spirit Ginseng recipe, Chen Yu's Bronze Statue Technique could advance to the Copper Bone level.

At that time.

He would be able to put up a fight even if he faced a mid-stage Viscera Refinement expert. It would greatly increase his ability to protect himself.

…

Late at night.

Yunyue Gate. In a remote, dilapidated house.

"Hall Master Lin. Are you sure you really sent Chen Yu outside to participate in the support mission? "

A flattering voice was heard.

The person who spoke was a youth in green clothes. He was currently bowing and groveling.

If Chen Yu was here, he would definitely recognize that this was his former nemesis, Wang Lingyun.

In a dark house.

Vaguely, a tall and burly middle-aged man could be seen in front of him. His body emitted an aura that was as thick as a mountain. In a layer of pale yellow mist, it seemed rather blurry.

That aura pressured Wang Lingyun to the point that it was difficult to breathe.

"Regarding the abnormality on Chen Yu's body and the mysterious opportunity since the descent of the meteoric metal, did you tell anyone else in the Sect?"

The blurry silhouette of "Hall Master Lin" spoke in a low and slow voice.

"No! Other than you and the Seven Princes, I didn't tell anyone else. "

Wang Lingyun hurriedly replied.

A hint of viciousness flashed in his eyes. "Chen Yu, you have an opportunity and your value is not low. This time, you have attracted the attention of the Sect's bigwigs. Let's see how long you can be arrogant."

"Yes, you have made a great contribution. You can leave with peace of mind. "

Hall Master Lin nodded.

"Thank you, Hall Master! Hmm … I can leave with peace of mind? "

Wang Lingyun was grateful at first, but he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Boom!

A mass of yellow energy that was as heavy as a mountain instantly annihilated and penetrated Wang Lingyun's body.

"You …"

Wang Lingyun's body stiffened. The inner breath that he subconsciously circulated was extinguished like an oil lamp.

Then.

His body, as if it was crushed by a ten-thousand-pound boulder, turned into a pile of red and white human-shaped meat paste.
