Chapter 3878

"This …" Xu Chuanping and Chen Zhuo's faces were slightly awkward, but they immediately smiled and said, "To tell you the truth, we also feel that it's a bit strange. However, this is a matter of a scholarly family. We don't have much information, so it's hard to guess.

Anyway, we only want to look for opportunities. If possible … it's best to form a good relationship with the Chu family. If we have any difficulties in the future, we can ask them for help.

As for the strangeness of the matter, we really didn't think much about it. "

"That's true …" Xiao Hua smiled, "This has nothing to do with us Daoism cultivators. Why should we care about it?

Even if the Chu family occupies the Immortal Palace, it has nothing to do with us! "

"Yes, yes …" Xu Chuanping and Chen Zhuo hurriedly nodded, "If that's the case, we Daoism cultivators might even be able to benefit from it."

Fu Zhiwen, who was waiting in front of the carriage, heard Xiao Hua's words and was moved. He hurriedly transmitted his voice, "Master, disciple faintly heard that the nine provinces of the Hidden Immortal Continent are respectively controlled by a hundred scholarly families. Jing Province and Gun Province … could it be that they're controlled by a scholarly family?"

"That's right!"

Fu Zhiwen's reminder immediately woke Xiao Hua up, and he transmitted his voice, "There are vague records in scholarly books.

However, Jing Province and Gun Province aren't controlled by a scholarly family. Jing Province belongs to the school of Legalism, while Gun Province belongs to the school of Military.

If I'm not mistaken, the Chu family belongs to the school of Legalism, while Gun Province should be controlled by the school of Military of the Immortal Palace. For the Chu family to extend their hands to the Godfiend Blood Pool of Military, I'm afraid … there's something fishy that others don't know about! "

"Could it be …" Fu Zhiwen was shocked, "The school of Legalism wants to take advantage of the war between immortals and Buddhas to invade the Immortal Palace's power on the Hidden Immortal Continent?"

"How can a fourth-rate family be so daring?" Xiao Hua sneered, "There must be other scholarly families behind the Chu family!"

"Four great families!" Fu Zhiwen blurted out, "Dongfang, Ximen, Nangong, and Beiming!"

"It seems that Zhu Cheng was right!"

Xiao Hua nodded, "Maybe Zhu Cheng already saw through the secret, but he was afraid that I wouldn't be able to put my face down, so he sent me to the Godfiend Blood Pool. If I can make contact with the four great families, they'll definitely protect me, I won't have to be afraid of the Immortal Palace.

But from another perspective, I've also become a pawn of the four great clans!

The four great clans, are you planning to use the Confucian cultivators and Daoist cultivators of the Hidden Immortal Continent as chess pieces? "

Seeing that Xiao Hua had his head lowered in thought, Chen Zhuo thought for a moment and hurriedly said, "Junior received a piece of news before. I don't know if it has anything to do with the Chu family's actions in the Blood Pool of Gods and Devils."

"Oh?

Fellow Daoist, please speak. "Xiao Hua raised his head and asked.

"Actually, this isn't the first time the Chu clan has done something like this.

When I was still a Foundation Establishment cultivator, I saw a Nascent Soul cultivator receive a command talisman from the Chu Clan. The command talisman said that the Chu Clan wanted this Senior to go to a certain place to help. At that time, it wasn't as grand as it is now, but many Daoist cultivators knew about it.

But for some reason, there was no news from that time. I don't know if this is related to the last time! "

"Command talisman?" Xiao Hua calmed down and smiled. "Have you seen that command talisman before?"

"I have!" Chen Zhuo nodded and replied, "It's somewhat similar to the tiger talisman used by the secular world!"

"Is it this?" Xiao Hua took out the token Chu Muhuan gave him back then and asked.

Chen Zhuo glanced at it and smiled. "Senior Xiao really received an invitation from the Jing province's Chu Clan. This item is exactly the same as the one I saw."

"En!"

Xiao Hua replied thoughtfully. "This token wasn't obtained by this old man recently. It was given to me by a Chu clan disciple a long time ago.

Speaking of which, this old man owes him a favor.

Actually, if Fellow Daoist hadn't mentioned it, this old man wouldn't have thought that the token from that time had anything to do with this. "

"With this token, we can meet the Chu clan's patriarch!

This trip won't be in vain. "

Chen Zhuo and Xu Chuanping glanced at each other and hurriedly stood up and cupped their hands. "Senior Xiao, please … introduce us to you."

Xiao Hua waved his hand and gestured for the two to sit down. "It's fate that brought us together. Follow this old man to the Fiendgod Blood Pool. As for whether you can get anything good, it'll depend on your luck."

"Master, the thunderstorm ahead has stopped. Should we continue?" At this moment, Fu Zhiwen asked from the front.

Xiao Hua smiled. "Of course we should. Although I don't know what the Chu clan has planned, the earlier we go, the more benefits we can get!"

"Hehe, Senior is right!" Chen Zhuo and Xu Chuanping smiled. Fu Zhiwen urged the flying carriage to fly into the thunderstorm.

However, Chen Zhuo suddenly realized something. He looked at Fu Zhiwen and asked in a low voice, "Senior Xiao, is this your … disciple?"

Xiao Hua understood Chen Zhuo's misgivings and smiled. "This old man has been conquered by the immortal palace. Who cares about their bullshit rules?"

"Yes, yes!" Chen Zhuo smiled and said. "This junior knows.

Actually … what this junior wants to ask is, why did Senior accept a Confucian disciple? "

"Oh, so Fellow Daoist is asking about this!"

Xiao Hua suddenly realized something and replied. "This old man also knows a little about the cultivation method of Confucian cultivators. This old man taught this disciple the cultivation method of Confucian cultivators."

"Ah?

Senior Xiao … "Chen Zhuo was surprised and his eyes flashed with envy. Xu Chuanping said with a bit of jealousy," No wonder Senior was able to get the Chu clan's token. With Senior's identity as a dual Confucian cultivator, not to mention a fourth-rank aristocratic family, even a second-rank aristocratic family would welcome you. "

"That's Senior Xiao!"

Chen Zhuo said flatteringly. "This one has been cultivating for so long, but I have never heard of a Daoist cultivator on the Hidden Immortal Continent who is proficient in both Confucian and Taoist cultivation!"

After saying this, Chen Zhuo and Xu Chuanping saw that Xiao Hua was really amiable and approachable, so they hurriedly took this opportunity to ask him about the difficulties they faced in their cultivation. Xiao Hua just listened for a bit and knew that they had made mistakes in their cultivation. He then gave them pointers in their cultivation according to what the two said.

Just as the two were immersed in listening, a few days passed in the blink of an eye. They saw a red haze in the distance, like a huge steamer, with red steam rising from the ground all the way to the sky. The area it covered was so large that even Xiao Hua's soulsense couldn't see the end of it!

"Master …" Fu Zhiwen stopped the flying carriage. He frowned and said in a low voice, "The Demonic God Blood Pool is in front of us.

However, it seems a bit different from when this disciple first came here. "

Xiao Hua heard the explanation and withdrew his soulsense. He asked in a low voice, "What's the difference?"

"When this disciple first came to the Gun Province, his cultivation wasn't very high, so he could only watch from afar. The Demonic God Blood Pool didn't have so much blood mist above it. Even birds can't fly over it. The main reason is that there is no place to rest in the blood pool. Ordinary birds can't fly over it without rest.

But now … the blood mist has covered an area of ten thousand miles. Even birds can't enter. "

Fu Zhiwen looked into the distance and said carefully, "Also, this place is still some distance away from the blood pool, but the air is filled with a kind of evil aura. It smells like a sharp sword that can hurt people. Not only is it very sharp, but it also gives people the urge to kill."

"Young friend Fu is right!"

Chen Zhuo and Xu Chuanping had stood up long ago. Chen Zhuo said, "This Demonic God Blood Pool has changed greatly. The area of the blood pool seems to have increased a bit. When I came here earlier, the edge of the blood pool seemed to still be inside."

Xu Chuanping nodded. "It's probably the changes in the Demonic God Blood Pool that attracted the attention of the Jing Province's Chu Clan. That's why they came here from so far away!"

Xiao Hua narrowed his eyes and looked at the steam-like blood mist. His soulsense couldn't see the entirety of the Demonic God Blood Pool, nor could it penetrate into the blood mist. There seemed to be a strange restriction in the blood mist. This restriction seemed to have a life of its own. As it slowly changed, it also devoured Xiao Hua's soulsense. Xiao Hua didn't dare act rashly.

Moreover, after arriving here, Xiao Hua had the same feeling as when he heard about the Blood Pool of Gods and Devils from Fu Zhiwen. Xiao Hua's heart really did give birth to a faint feeling. This feeling was very familiar to Xiao Hua, but when he thought about it carefully, it was also unfamiliar. It seemed to be a kind of summoning, but also a kind of vigilance. It was really difficult to grasp.

In particular, Xiao Hua was still some distance away from the Fiendgod Blood Pool. He could smell the scent of the Netherworld Blood Sea.

"Things … are getting more and more interesting!" Xiao Hua couldn't help but think to himself.

"Who is it?

Who dares to come to my Chu Clan's forbidden area? "

Just when Xiao Hua wanted to order Fu Zhiwen to fly down, a divine sense swept over. Then, several Clear Eyes Technique swept over at the same time. An arrogant voice immediately sounded in everyone's ears.

Xiao Hua raised his head and looked at the source of the voice. Several sword lights streaked across the sky. Several third grade essence energy Confucian scholars wearing tight clothes flew over from the distance. The one in front had a long and narrow face like a red date. He was standing on a fiery red flying sword.

"Fellow immortal …" Chen Zhuo and Xu Chuanping naturally couldn't let Xiao Hua go out to answer. The two flew out of the flying car and bowed. "I am Chen Zhuo of Yangzhou's Sipeng Mountain, Xu Chuanping of Huiyou Villa. Behind I is Xiao Hua, Daoist Xiao and his disciple. The four of us heard that the Chu Clan was spreading the hero's invitation in the Hidden Immortal Continent. We came here to help the Chu Clan."

"Hmph …" The person in front stopped. The several Confucian scholars behind him also stopped their sword lights. The red-faced Confucian scholar coldly snorted and said, "My Chu Clan is spreading the hero's invitation in the Hidden Immortal Continent.

We naturally welcome capable heroes. However, we may not welcome crooked melons and split dates who want to take advantage of the situation. "

Chen Zhuo and Xu Chuanping's faces instantly turned red. The two of them only had a cultivation of Gold Core. They weren't much stronger than these people. However, looking at these third grade essence energy Confucian scholars patrolling back and forth, even if the two of them could enter the God Devil Blood Pool, what kind of advantage could they take?

This Confucian scholar's words couldn't be considered wrong.
