(Thanks to the other party for paying 11 and Hun Tiancheng for the reward! Today's first update is delivered!)

Xu Bo then twisted his beard lightly and said with a smile: "Although this spiritual vein is large in area and covers the entire mountain, its spiritual energy is very thin. Compared with the spiritual veins in other places, it is only about half the spiritual energy density in other places, so naturally no one chooses it. As for why the spiritual energy in the spiritual vein here is so thin? The Deacon Hall also sent someone to investigate, but it never found the reason. There are many spiritual veins in the mountains, and others have some choice places, so they didn't ask about it anymore. How about it? Do you still want to choose there?"

Jiang Chen thought for a moment and thought to himself that he had the secret of a bombshell like the Demon Order. He was worried in his heart, afraid that he would be discovered.

If you gather around the top of the Demon Soul Peak like other disciples, although the spiritual energy is stronger, it is common for the brothers to visit each other. If you don’t do it properly, you will easily be knocked out of your secrets. Moreover, there are many people and ears, so it is very likely that others will find any abnormal clues from it.

So, after thinking for a while, he said firmly: "Uncle Xu, I'd better choose the spiritual vein on the small mountain as the cave. I've been refining alchemy now, wanting to become an alchemist, and don't want to live in a crowded place to avoid being disturbed!"

After hearing this, Xu Bo touched the long beard under his jaw, but his eyes looked a little strange.

Jiang Chen often went to the alchemy room of Mohun Peak to refine elixirs, and he had known about it from Bu Zheng. However, if he wanted to refine elixirs, there was indeed such a need. Alchemists didn't like being disturbed by others who often knocked on the door.

Moreover, this person has such a high understanding of magic. If he has talent in alchemy, he will be blessed by his own sect and even the Demon Soul Peak. Thinking of this, he felt relieved.

Xu Bo nodded and said, "Okay! Then your cave is set on that small mountain! Although the spiritual energy there is thinner, the peak area is large. You can set up more spiritual fields and plant some plants such as spiritual valley spiritual herbs and medicines, which is also convenient for alchemy!"

Jiang Chen nodded. After completing the procedures for receiving the cave, Xu Bofang said, "You can postpone the matter of opening the cave. I will take you to the ancestor's place first and choose a magic spell!"

Speaking of this, he said with some envy: "Jiang Chen, there are many unique secret techniques in the ancestors, and they cannot be exchanged even in the sect's Sutra Gallery. I was only when I successfully built the foundation, but I was given a set of martial arts by the ancestor. You just became an outer disciple and enjoyed this kind of treatment. It is really a blessing!"

"Haha? That's because the ancestor fell in love with him... Then please take me with me!" Jiang Chen smiled embarrassedly.

He was actually a little curious about the magic secrets of the Demon Soul Ancestor. Now Jiang Chen also deeply felt that he was indeed lacking in magic. Although he had a thick-backed machete, he didn't even know how to cut the sword. Although he had two magic weapons for defense, he didn't even know how to defend. These were places where urgently needed to be strengthened.

******************************************************************

Just as Jiang Chen followed Xu Bo to the cave of the Demon Soul Ancestor, a horse-faced man in his forties and in his foundation-building stage was shouting at the young disciple in front of him: "Jiang Wei, do you see clearly? The disciple named Jiang Chen of the Demon Soul Peak is really my Ten Ghost Banner in my hand?"

This horse-faced man is named Gu Hao. He is one of the three deacon disciples of the Demonic Peak. Gu Zhiyong, who was killed by Jiang Chen and others, is his son.

"Report to Master, I can see clearly, absolutely correct!" The young monk named Jiang Wei was the disciple of the Demonic Sword Peak who was watching the battle while Jiang Chen and Wu Chuan were competing.

"Did you really see clearly? The Ten Ghost Banners in the sect were all refined by weapon refiners from Tianyou Peak. They all look similar in appearance. Just a gravure print, you can tell that it was Zhiyong's Ten Ghost Banners?" Gu Hao asked in confusion.

Jiang Wei smiled slightly, with a hint of haze in his eyes and said, "You can conclude that the Ten Ghost Banner is from Junior Brother Gu. In addition to the gravure printing, there are two other reasons!"

"Oh?" Gu Hao's eyes showed surprise, and then he said, "Then you continue talking!"

"The first reason: This disciple named Jiang Chen has only been in the school for less than three years, and is just a mixed spirit root. There is no background in the family. It is Xiao Jincheng, a deacon disciple of the Demon Soul Peak. In order to make up the number of people, he was brought into the sect like a strong man. How could he have a Ten Ghost Banner, a piece of disciple in the middle stage of Qi Refining Stage, be considered a very expensive magic weapon for disciples in such a short time. This is one of the doubts!" ​​Jiang Wei smiled and said.

After pausing, he continued, "This alone cannot explain the problem. But the day before Junior Brother Gu disappeared, his disciple heard him say, "It was difficult to collect the ghost of the ninth monk. It is really difficult to successfully sacrifice and refine the Ten Ghost Banners! It seems that I still have to go to the Crow Ridge Cemetery to see if there are any casual cultivators who come to the door. And after he went to the Crow Ridge Cemetery, he never came back..."

"The disciple went to the Deacon Hall on the main peak, and happened to meet a master uncle from our Deacon Peak on duty. I asked him to help check Jiang Chen's transaction records in the Deacon Hall, and found that he had never purchased the Ten Ghost Banners in the sect. On the morning of the second day after Junior Brother Gu disappeared, Jiang Chen handed over a batch of inferior ghosts to the Deacon Hall in exchange for records of spirit stones. The source of these ghosts was the Crow Ridge Cemetery! This shows that on the night when Junior Brother Gu disappeared, Jiang Chen went to the Crow Ridge Cemetery!" Jiang Wei said loudly.

When Gu Hao heard this, his eyes were already filled with evil light. There was a gravure mark on his son's Ten Ghost Banner, and Jiang Chen's Ten Ghost Banner also. His Ten Ghost Banner was not bought from the sect, so I don't know where he got it. Moreover, this person appeared in the place where his son had been during the time when his son disappeared. If it was all coincidence, it would be too coincidental.

Jiang Wei bowed slightly at this time and said, "So, even if this Ten Ghost Banner was not stolen from Junior Brother Gu, it would definitely not be related to him. From this point of view, we should be able to understand Junior Brother Gu's whereabouts!"

Gu Hao stared at Jiang Wei at this time, and Fang was somewhat grateful: "Jiang Wei, fortunately, I have a good apprentice like you. I am quick-witted and careful observation... Otherwise, Zhiyong's disappearance had been almost three years, and I still have no clue yet."

Speaking of this, he stood up and said, "Let's go! Let's go to Demon Soul Peak together, find Jiang Chen, and interrogate it carefully..."

The guard quickly nodded and said yes. Just as the two were about to go out, a disciple came into the door. When he saw Gu Hao, he quickly bowed and said, "Uncle Gu, the exams for several peaks have been over. Uncle Hong asked me to report to you the top three of the other seven peaks!"

"Oh, tell me!" Gu Hao stopped at this time.

The disciple started to recite the mountain peaks one by one. When he reached the Demon Soul Peak, Gu Hao immediately shouted: "What? Is the winner of the small test on the Demon Soul Peak Jiang Chen?"

"Yes! This person only has the fourth level of Qi Refining Stage, and it only takes three years to get started. He can win the championship, which is beyond many people's expectations. He is the biggest dark horse in the sect's sect's test this time. I heard that the Demon Soul Ancestor also summoned him to his cave and said that he would give him a magic secret book alone!" The disciple reported.

Gu Hao's eyes flashed immediately, obviously in the nuclear trick to go to the Demon Soul Peak.

If Jiang Chen was just an ordinary registered disciple, it would be fine. I guess the people from the Demon Soul Peak Deacon Hall would also sell him this favor. But Jiang Chen is now the champion of the Demon Soul Peak's test and is appreciated by the Demon Soul Ancestor. Most of the people from the Demon Soul Hall would ask for the Demon Soul Ancestor.

But the Demon Soul Ancestor is very clear about the temper of this Demon Soul Ancestor. Although his cultivation is not as good as the Demon Soul Ancestor, he has a strong temper and is the most protective of his shortcomings. Unless he can take out the real evidence of Jiang Chen's killing and robbing treasures, he will never hand over the person to find him based on speculation.

Jiang Wei was his proud disciple and a very scheming person. After checking his face and looking at his face, he naturally understood what Gu Hao was hesitating about.

He then bowed and said, "Master, according to the temperament of the Demon Soul Ancestor, even if our ancestor wants someone, he will not agree to hand it over. Unless the ancestor goes to the sect leader or the elder to come forward... But such a thing will go to the sect leader..."

Jiang Wei did not finish his words, but Gu Hao also understood that Gu Zhiyong's affairs were a big deal for him, but for the sect leader, he did not care about the life or death of a disciple of the third level of Qi Refining Stage. For this small matter, the Demon Ancestor went to find the sect leader. It would be strange if the sect leader didn't scold his ancestor for being so bloody.

Thinking of this, Gu Hao said viciously: "I don't believe that Jiang Chen has been hiding in the sect and not going out. Let him be free for a few days! After a while, the sect will let the newly promoted outer disciples go out to perform missions. I want to see how many people will the Demon Soul Ancestor send to protect him?"

After saying that, he turned around and said to Jiang Wei: "Jiang Wei, after he was sent out, you can find another suitable opportunity, take a few brothers and take him down together, and ask him carefully, and ask him clearly how Zhiyong's Ten Ghost Banner got into his hands? With his strength as the first level of the Qi Refining Stage three years ago, he would definitely not be able to kill Zhiyong! There must be another accomplice!"
