I can gather experience beads

Shengzhou.

Haiyue Xiuxian Market.

Xu Yao sat at the desk, holding a number of official documents from the market town in his hands, but his mind was not here. His brows were slightly furrowed, and a hint of worry was revealed in his eyes.

"What is the origin of the Loose Cultivator Alliance?"

He whispered to himself, his mind full of doubts.

"Now that the natural moat divides the state, how powerful a force must be to be able to cross it?"

Thinking of this, Xu Yao's mood became heavier and he felt an invisible pressure looming over his heart.

He couldn't help but think of the man named Zhang Heng who had been imprisoned in the market town before, and his heart began to feel conflicted.

Otherwise, how about releasing this person directly? If we do this, we will be afraid of being held accountable by the sect later.

Among the five Jindan cultivators of the Blue Moon Sect, he was the only one with the most ordinary background, and was also excluded from the sect's real power.

Just as he was lost in thought, he suddenly felt the powerful aura of a Jindan-stage cultivator rapidly approaching the market headquarters from a distance.

Xu Yao's heart trembled. He immediately stood up and flashed out of the room.

He looked up at the sky, and saw a beam of light flying rapidly from the horizon, which stopped above Haiyuefang City in the blink of an eye.

After discovering Xu Yao, he quickly landed in front of Xu Yao.

The man's eyes were sharp and his consciousness was firmly fixed on Xu Yao.

"Xu Yao, where are the members of the Loose Cultivator Alliance? Release them immediately!" The man spoke in a stern tone with unquestionable majesty.

Xu Yao recognized the man's identity at a glance. It was the Black Mountain monk Zhao Chen. And Zhao Chen had another special identity. He was the grandson of the Nascent Soul monk Black Mountain Patriarch!

This man is the second in command in Black Mountain, and has a Nascent Soul cultivator as his backer. Although they are both Golden Core cultivators, his status is vastly different from theirs!

Xu Yao's expression became extremely solemn.

Xu Yao took a deep breath, then bowed and asked in a serious tone: "Zhao Chen, what is your relationship with the Loose Cultivator Alliance? Why are you involved in this matter?"

He stared at Zhao Chen, trying to find the answer from his expression and words.

Zhao Chen snorted coldly, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, and he said loudly: "Humph, what does this have to do with you? If you don't let go, when my ancestor comes in person, I'm afraid it won't be that simple."

He knew Xu Yao's background very well, so he scolded him without any hesitation and showed no mercy to the other party.

Xu Yao was shocked when he heard this.

Zhao Chen's tough attitude made him realize that things might not be simple.

He wondered to himself what secret was hidden in this.

Seeing Xu Yao's doubtful expression, Zhao Chen continued, "To tell you the truth, I came here on the orders of our ancestor, the Black Mountain Patriarch, to lead the Loose Cultivator Alliance back to Black Mountain!"

Hearing the words "Black Mountain Ancestor", Xu Yao's face instantly became extremely ugly.

If it was Zhao Chen's own decision, he could still rely on the sect behind him to deal with it, but if it was the Black Mountain Patriarch...

He was well aware of how powerful the Black Mountain Patriarch was, and he also understood that this matter was beyond his control.

He gritted his teeth, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said, "Since this is what the ancestor wants, I will send someone to send the Loose Cultivator Alliance here."

Although he was unwilling, he had no choice but to compromise in the face of absolute strength.

Xu Yao did not dare to be negligent at all and immediately used his spiritual sense to transmit the message.

Not long after, Zhang Heng and all the elite members of the Loose Cultivator Alliance were brought here.

Zhao Chen walked up to Zhang Heng, his expression softened, and he said in a gentle tone: "You are Zhang Heng, right?"

Zhang Heng bowed slightly and said, "It is me! Thank you for your help, senior!"

"You're welcome. I'm following the orders of our ancestor, the Black Mountain Patriarch, to take you back to Black Mountain."

It turned out to be the Black Mountain Patriarch. Zhang Heng felt relieved.

Zhao Chen turned around and looked at Xu Yao, "I will settle accounts with your market for what happened today."

Zhao Chen waved his sleeves, and a huge Black Mountain spirit boat grew bigger with the wind. "Everyone, please get on board. We are returning to Black Mountain!" Zhang Heng and others boarded the spirit boat, and the spirit boat quickly flew towards the direction of Black Mountain.

Xu Yao, who stayed where he was, had a changing expression on his face, and finally he sighed helplessly.

In the end, he chose to keep the matter secret instead of reporting it to the three major sects.

However, the Loose Cultivator Alliance is destined to expand in Shengzhou. In the future, the old matter will be brought up again, involving the conflict of interests over the Lingyin Jade Pendant. It remains to be seen whether Xu Yao, a Jindan cultivator, will eventually be sacrificed by the three major sects...

the other side.

Zhang Heng and others were personally picked up by Zhao Chen and soon arrived at the Heishan Market.

And he gave the most central attic in the market town to the Loose Cultivators Alliance as its headquarters.

After a few days, Tianji baby and Zhang Mo also rushed to Heishan.

The Loose Cultivator Alliance and the Lingyin Jade Pendant began to spread slowly in Shengzhou with Black Mountain as the center point.

......

Hongzhou.

The light on the teleportation point flickered.

When he appeared again, Cao Rui was already in the Jinzhou Desert.

There was another person beside him, and that was Lingxiao Sword Master.

At the request of Lingxiao Sword Master, Cao Rui had no choice but to bring him to Jinzhou and go to Yaowang Sect to set up a teleportation point.

Ling Xiao Sword Ancestor opened his mouth, spit out a magic sword, and took Cao Rui on the sword, heading towards the direction of Yao Wang Sect.

With the speed of Lingxiao Sword Ancestor.

Soon, the two arrived outside the gate of Yaowang Sect.

"Is this the Medicine King Sect? It's a pretty good place." Ling Xiao Sword Ancestor said as he looked at the Medicine King Sect's mountain gate.

"Let's go in."

Cao Rui took out his guest elder token and entered the Yaowang Sect with Lingxiao Sword Master.

Prior to this, Cao Rui had confessed Chen Fugui's identity to Wan Changchun, so they agreed that Cao Rui would go to the sect on his own to look for Wan Changchun.

After entering the mountain gate, Lingxiao Sword Ancestor expanded his spiritual sense, which quickly covered the entire Yaowang Sect like an invisible net.

Soon, his spiritual sense detected the shocking number of alchemists inside the mountain gate.

This discovery made a faint smile appear on his face involuntarily.

If all these alchemists could work for the Demon-Slaying Alliance, the alliance's combat effectiveness and endurance would be greatly enhanced.

Thinking of this, Lingxiao Sword Master was secretly happy, it seemed that he had come to the right place this time.

He has made a definite friend of Wan Changchun!

While thinking about this, Lingxiao Sword Master and Cao Rui quickly walked into the courtyard where Wan Changchun was.

At this moment, Wan Changchun was already waiting in front of the door, leaning on a cane that glowed with introverted aura.

Seeing the two people coming, Wan Changchun smiled and said, "Here they are, Sword Master, and Grandmaster Cao!"

His gaze first fell on Lingxiao Sword Ancestor, and he paused slightly.

Before in the Pure World Space, they met each other through energy clones, so they did not feel the true strength of Lingxiao Sword Ancestor.

But at this moment, when he saw Lingxiao Sword Master with his own eyes, Wan Changchun truly felt the powerful oppressive force emanating from him.

Wan Changchun secretly estimated that even if he lifted the seal and attacked with all his strength, he would probably not be able to withstand Lingxiao Sword Master's attack for too long.

Cao Rui cupped his hands and said, "Master Wan, please tell me the location of the teleportation point."

"Okay, thank you, Grandmaster Cao. Please follow me."

"I will prepare a medicinal banquet for you two later. Please do me a favor."

The medicinal banquet is a reception banquet that the Medicine King Sect will only arrange on important occasions.

"Of course it's possible." Cao Rui and the other two responded.

Following Wan Changchun into a secret room shrouded by a magic array, Cao Rui began to set up a teleportation point.
