A small casual cultivator!

After a while, all the insect eggs entered its stomach, and then it dragged its bloated body and crawled back into the cocoon little by little, finally sticking out its tongue to close the opening.

"receive!"

Seeing that it had finished eating, Lu Luan opened his hands and collected the pupa.

Next, he sat cross-legged at the table, took out the insights given by his senior brother, and began to comprehend them quietly.

And so, another five days passed.

……

"Ok?"

The token on his waist suddenly flashed. Lu Luan sensed something strange and slowly opened his eyes.

He picked up the inner disciple's badge and placed it between his eyebrows, and a stream of information poured in.

After a while, Lu Luan frowned and said, "All inner disciples, go to the inner gate hall to gather. There is such a big commotion, what happened?"

After muttering to himself, he stood up and walked out, flying towards the inner gate hall.

As soon as he was in the air, he saw figures flying around him. It seemed that they were also rushing to the Inner Gate Hall after receiving the news.

The scene was quite spectacular, like a swarm of carp crossing the river.

Soon, he arrived outside the inner gate hall.

At this time, there were already quite a few people standing around the inner gate hall, and Lu Luan found a wide place to land.

Wait quietly.

The disciples around were all very confused and were discussing what had happened.

Half a minute later, seeing that most people had arrived, an old man with white hair and a youthful face came out.

After seeing him appear, everyone fell silent and bowed respectfully, saying, "Greetings, Great Elder!"

This old man is the great elder of the inner sect, and his cultivation is unfathomable.

"The Great Elder is here as well. It looks like something big is happening." Lu Luan said silently in his heart. The Great Elder has been in seclusion for many years, and this is the first time he has seen him. He followed them in the crowd and saluted.

The old man glanced at everyone and said in a loud voice:

"Since the demonic forces outside the sect have become increasingly rampant recently, some disciples and even elders have been secretly colluding with the demonic cultivators to harm the people of Zhengyang Sect. Therefore, in order to ensure the safety of the disciples and to find those traitors, the headmaster has stipulated that when the Soul Tower is opened, all disciples in the sect, including the elders, must light up the soul lamps at the same time."

"What, a soul-lighting lamp!"

All the disciples below began to get restless.

"Light up the soul lamp?"

Lu Luan also frowned. He knew that as long as he lit his soul lamp in the Zhengyang Gate Soul Tower, his life would be connected to the lamp. When he died, the lamp would go out. If he committed a crime, he could also punish the offending disciple through the lamp, or even... behead him!

"Are we going to go back to the old rules?"

Lu Luan whispered that, in fact, decades ago, every disciple of Zhengyang Sect would light up the soul lamp in the soul tower after becoming the sect leader. But for some reason, it was said that this rule was cancelled because of a few supreme elders.

After all, no one wants their life to be controlled by others. Once it is abolished, it will not be easy to restore it. First of all, the elders will definitely be the first to disagree.

But now it seems that they should have agreed, otherwise it would not be the disciple's turn.

"Elder, why are you suddenly going to restore the rules?"

Some disciples raised questions.

Lu Luan looked over and saw that the man had a strong aura. Although he was also at the seventh level of Qi Refining, he felt that he was no match for him. He thought that he must be the offspring of an elder and must have a strong foundation, otherwise he would not dare to stand up.

"Are you scared? Are you afraid? Are you hiding something?"

The other elder glared at him coldly.

The great elder spoke again: "Since the abolition of the Soul Tower rule, our Zhengyang Sect has been on a downward spiral for seventy years. Now, the other three sects have produced numerous geniuses, but what about us? How many can we produce? If this continues, in a hundred years, there will be no Zhengyang Sect in the world."

The other three sects have never abolished the rules.

This time, from the perspective of the sect's righteousness, everyone was speechless.

"let's start."

After talking for a while, the great elder opened his hands, and a small tower flashing with fluorescence appeared.

Then rays of light shot out from it and landed in front of each disciple.

“Is this the soul lamp?”

Lu Luan muttered to himself as he looked at the small white jade lamp with two wicks in front of him.

Seeing that everyone around him was starting to "light fires", he hesitated for a moment, then bit his finger and dripped a drop of blood into it.

As the blood spread, the two rushes suddenly lit up, flickering with cold light.

The next moment, one of the wicks flew out and sank into his forehead.

In an instant, Lu Luan felt that he was connected to some mysterious power.

In fact, he didn't resist too much. After all, as long as he behaved himself and didn't do anything to harm the sect, the soul lamp would be useless. And whether there was this thing or not, as long as you committed a crime, the sect would have a way to find you. The soul tower would just be more convenient.

After sensing that all the disciples had finished dripping blood, the elder used his power and the soul lamps flew back on their own.

After giving some instructions and calming them down for a while, everyone went their separate ways.

……

"It's good that the soul lamp has been lit. At least no disciple dares to collude with the evil cultivators anymore."

In the air, Lu Luan spoke softly. He thought of Zhou Yu. After all, many methods of magic cultivation were of great benefit to improving cultivation, but not every disciple could resist the temptation.

He was really scared after the last experience and he will never forget it.

Next, while thinking, he returned to Qianzhu Peak.

After landing, he looked at the empty storage bag and said silently: "It's time to earn some spirit stones."

He always felt uneasy because he had no property.

And so it went on for another five days.

……

"Huh... another one was made."

Under the bamboo forest, Lu Luan looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction. Through constant practice, he was finally able to skillfully complete the five-array spirit gathering array. Then, with a thought, he put it away.

He frowned and said, "We have run out of the magic tools and array plates used as the center of the array. Let's go buy some."

After saying that, he flew towards the market town.

The array plate is refined with a special magic weapon. Although the magic weapon can also be used as the eye of the array, it is too big and is a waste of talent.

Soon, he arrived.

Without looking around, he walked straight towards a shop.

"Junior brother, have you finished the formation again?"

A young man in the store saw him and immediately walked over with a smile.

"Senior brother."

Lu Luan bowed.

The young man in front of him was from Qingyun Peak just like him, specializing in selling array plates, magical instruments and the like in the sect. He usually sold the finished array plates to him, and could also buy the raw materials for refining the array plates at a low price from him, which was a mutually beneficial deal.

"No need to be so polite."

The young man smiled and looked at him expectantly.

Lu Luan understood, opened his hands, and took out three formation plates.

"Ok?"

When the young man saw it for the first time, his brows relaxed and he said with a smile: "It seems that Junior Brother's ability to make array plates has improved a bit."

Lu Luan handed it over and said, "Brother, let's take a look at the price."

The young man held the formation plate in his hand and activated it immediately. After looking at it for a while, he nodded and said, "The five-array spirit gathering formation is not bad, not bad." Then he looked at Lu Luan and said:

"Junior brother, this array is pretty good. It costs twenty-two spirit stones. How about it?"

"Okay, I'll do as you say, brother."

After thinking for a while, Lu Luan agreed. The price was a little higher than he expected.

"Brother, do you need some more ingredients?"

"Of course." Lu Luan said.

……

After a while, Lu Luan walked out of the shop with a bitter face. More than forty spirit stones were gone before he could even touch them.

Excluding the cost of raw materials, he can now earn about five spirit stones for making a formation plate, and he can make one per day. If he works hard, he can earn more than a hundred spirit stones in a month.

Of course, refining the array plate is extremely time-consuming and cannot be done all the time.

After returning to Qianzhu Peak, Lu Luan took out five small swords and said silently: "Let's get started."

He was going to start making the formation again.
