"Ninth Elder, this is an injustice!" Xu Dong's face changed drastically and he knelt down quickly.

The person in front of him was Liu Xinghai, the ninth elder of the Tiger Immortal Sect. He had immense fighting power and could take his life with just a flick of his finger.

"Stand up and tell me what happened. If you can't give me a satisfactory answer, you will be punished in Wuhu Cave for three years." Liu Xinghai raised the teacup again, took a sip of the scarlet tea, and his lips and teeth turned red.

When Xu Dong heard the three words "Wuhu Cave", his whole body trembled and fear flashed in his eyes.

The black fox is an ancient ferocious beast. It is black all over and not big in size, only as tall as a human calf. However, it is extremely ferocious and likes to eat human soul power. Once the soul power is dissipated, the person will die.

With his level of cultivation, if he went to the Black Fox Cave, he wouldn't be able to survive for three days, let alone three years, before his soul would be sucked away and he would die.

Did Liu Xinghai intend to kill him?

They are just a few pathfinders, why would Liu Xinghai take them so seriously!

What kind of treasure is hidden in the dangerous place that Liu Xinghai attaches so much importance to?

Life and death were at stake, so Xu Dong didn't dare to delay and immediately told everything about Xiao Chen in detail. As for Qian Wandai, who was also at the seventh level of the general realm, he simply said a few words to him and told him that he had accepted bribes and let him in through the back door.

"The spiritual mirror is burning, scorching like the moon?" Liu Xinghai suddenly put down the teacup and stood up abruptly. The tea in the cup splashed everywhere, staining the green wooden tea table with a hint of blood.

The white mirror that Xu Dong had used to test Xiao Chen's combat power was called the Sky-Seeing Mirror. It was an ancient artifact that could see through illusions, steal the secrets of heaven, and had unfathomable power.

Of course, the Tiger Immortal Sect uses imitations, which have less than one millionth of the power of the real thing and can only be used to test combat power. In order to make the white mirror glow, it must have at least the power to collapse a mountain.

With one punch, a mountain a hundred feet high can be shattered, emitting a tiny light as small as a grain of rice, which becomes the power of a hundred mountains.

And possessing the power of two hundred mountains can make the Sky-Viewing Mirror emit a candle-like glow.

If you want to make the white mirror burn completely and fiercely, you need the power of at least five hundred mountains.

An eighteen-year-old boy possesses such great power and talent, which can be considered outstanding even in the outside world.

"How dare a disciple deceive the Ninth Elder!" Xu Dong was full of confidence.

"Bring the Sky-Viewing Mirror used to test that young man."

Xu Dong stood up, took out the snow-white Sky-Viewing Mirror and handed it to Liu Xinghai.

Liu Xinghai did not take it. His eyes were filled with blood and his pupils turned a strange red.

He was performing a terrifying eye technique that could briefly trace back events in the past.

Liu Xinghai did not spend too much time on pupil techniques. He only practiced them to the point of entry and then put them aside. The time he spent on them could not be traced back to a long time.

Fortunately, the test had only recently occurred and was therefore within his reach.

Liu Xinghai stared at the Sky-Viewing Mirror for a while. After a few breaths, the bloodshot in his eyes disappeared and a trace of horror appeared.

Burning like fire!

It's so hot!

There are such seedlings in the secular world!

"This boy is extraordinary!" After a long time, Liu Xinghai sat back on the jade chair and uttered these four words softly.

Xu Dong was stunned and completely shocked.

The Ninth Elder has always been a strict person, and there are few people in the younger generation of the Tiger Immortal Sect whom he can praise.

And now he actually gave such a high evaluation to a mortal boy.

"Ninth Elder, this boy couldn't even catch a finger from Junior Brother Liu Hua!"

"You are hiding your shortcomings! He is extremely talented and knows how to be patient. Chen Xiao has good qualifications and character. He is a promising talent! Although he is not a tiger seedling, he is worth cultivating." Liu Xinghai said with a smile.

"Should we remove him from the list of gray disciples?" Xu Dong asked carefully.

Although he knew that Xiao Chen was extraordinary, he did not expect that he was so outstanding that he could receive such a high evaluation from the Ninth Elder.

"Under normal circumstances, I would definitely recruit such a genius and train him well, but this time, it is about investigating the murderer and seizing the treasure, which is extremely important! If we can have such a genius to lead the way, the chance of success will be much higher! But, I can't bear to see such a promising talent die like this!" Liu Xinghai, who has always been decisive in killing and whose words can decide the life and death of millions of people, frowned slightly and was a little undecided for a moment.

"Ninth Elder, what exactly is that treasure? Why do you value it so much?" Xu Dong couldn't help but ask.

"It's related to an immortal." Liu Xinghai said without revealing too much.

This dangerous place was discovered by his men by accident, and dozens of young geniuses died before they brought back the news.

The few survivors died within three days after they came back. Their bodies were black and covered with terrifying runes, which was extremely strange.

That dangerous land was shrouded in an extremely powerful law. Only those below the King Realm could enter, and those above the King Realm would be blocked from entering. Many of his geniuses died in the attempt to investigate the danger, and for this reason, the strong men of his lineage were very dissatisfied.

Many of those who died were the descendants of those people. They would never agree to send anyone else to investigate the murder, so Liu Xinghai risked the world's condemnation and went to the secular world to look for Hui Tu.

Going to the secular world to find disciples and letting them die for the outside world is too cruel. Many years ago, it was jointly resisted by some major sects in the outside world.

If the matter were to be exposed, even Liu Xinghai would be in trouble.

"Then...what should we do with Chen Xiao?" Xu Dong asked.

"Let me think about it. It's a pity to waste such a good seedling!" Liu Xinghai said to himself, and then waved his hand, indicating that Xu Dong could go back.

Xu Dong bowed again and then turned and left.

"Grandpa, what's a pity for a country boy?" After Xu Dong left, Liu Hua walked out from the dark corner of the palace.

"Isn't it enough to be able to make the Sky-Peeking Realm as fierce as fire? If such a person grows up, he will be a fierce general! Except for you, our lineage has not produced any good seedlings for a long time!" Liu Xinghai smiled, restraining his arrogance and revealing a kind look.

"So what is Grandpa going to do?"

"Train him well and use him for your own purposes!" Liu Xinghai said. He had told Xu Dong before that he still needed to think about it, but he had already made a rough decision in his mind.

Liu Hua walked up to Liu Xinghai and whispered a few words to him.

Liu Xinghai's expression changed slightly: "Are you serious?"

Liu Hua nodded.

"I understand. You go down and practice first." Liu Xinghai's face darkened slightly.

the other side.

Xu Dong walked out of the palace and headed towards the courtyard where Xiao Chen and others were.

"What does the Ninth Elder mean? Do you want to send Chen Xiao to death, or give him a chance to rise to the top? How should I treat Chen Xiao?" Xu Dong frowned and muttered to himself.

Finally, he made a decision.

Arriving at the low courtyard complex, Xu Dong pushed the door open and walked in. Looking at Zi Zhan who was strolling in the courtyard, he asked, "Where's Chen Xiao?"

"In that room." Zi Zhan pointed to a dilapidated tiled house in the east.

"Call everyone out, I have something to say."

Shortly after.

A group of secular geniuses gathered and stood in the courtyard, waiting for Xu Dong to speak.

"Didn't you ask on the way what a Gray Disciple is? Now I'll tell you."
