Sequoia Island.

Watch the fairy city of sea.

The main hall of the coalition headquarters of the West Defense Zone.

A light flew towards the hall.

The person who came was a middle-aged monk wearing armor. The monk was burly and with this spiritual armor, he did not look like a monk, but rather a natural army man.

Push the door and enter.

Lei Zhen saw a Taoist in the hall wearing a blue Taoist robe, a jade crown, and a back facing away from his hands.

This person is his immediate boss, Chen Daoxuan.

"Lei Zhen recruited troops in 957 of the Qianyuan calendar and returned to Yunmeng Pass, the front line of Izumo Kingdom. In the fifth year, he retired."

Chen Daoxuan turned around, looked at Lei Zhen who was standing up to him, and smiled and said, "General Lei, why did he stay well on the front line of Izumo Kingdom and choose to return to the stagnant land of Guang'an Prefecture."

Hearing words.

Lei Zhen remained silent.

After a long time, he bowed and said, "Reported to the commander, most of the troops in Yunmeng Pass are from Jingzhou. I, a cultivator in Cangzhou, were excluded there. I sued several times, and the Shangguan was partial and unhappy, so I came back."

Chen Daoxuan could hear that this should be Lei Zhen’s heartfelt words.

Since the fall of Zhennan Pass, Cangzhou monks went to the front line to serve and had to go to Xiancheng Xiong Pass, which was stationed in other provinces.

Moreover, since the Cangzhou monks lost Zhennan Pass and spread, other states have despised Cangzhou monks.

You can imagine the bullying you will be in the army when you go to other people's territory.

In addition, Lei Zhen's personality is not very charming and is more susceptible to exclusion.

Hearing this.

Chen Daoxuan was also in a heavy mood.

The loss of Zhennan Pass was a pain in the hearts of all monks in Cangzhou, and this pain did not heal with the passage of time.

On the contrary, due to the subsequent reputation of Cangzhou monks and a series of losses in interests, it became increasingly serious.

He stepped forward a few steps, patted Lei Zhen on the shoulder, and said, "General Lei, don't worry, I, the Cangzhou monk, will definitely take back the immortal city of Zhennan Pass!"

"Um."

Lei Zhen seemed to remember some bad memories, and nodded with red eyes.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little solemn, Chen Daoxuan took Lei Zhen's hand and sat with his guest and said, "General Lei, don't talk about these unhappy things anymore."

Calculate the day, it has been nearly a year since you came to the coalition forces of my West Defense Zone?"

Lei Zhen thought for a while and said, "Eleventh month and seven days."

"General Lei has a good memory,"

Chen Daoxuan smiled and said quietly, "The current tide of corpses on the Lotus Island is slight, and the coalition forces in the West Defense Zone will not always exist. I don't know what General Lei's plans will be in the future."

Hearing this.

Lei Zhen opened his mouth reluctantly, not knowing how to answer.

After a while.

He shook his head bitterly and said, "Maybe, continue to go back to my island to instruct mortals to farm.

Apart from practicing, I don’t know much about alchemy and weapon refining. It seems that there is no other good way out except to cultivate food for the big clan in exchange for a little spiritual stone."

Chen Daoxuan was surprised now.

"With General Lei's cultivation, isn't there any family in Guang'an Mansion who invites you to be a guest monk?"

“Yes, of course, there are,”

Lei Zhen nodded, then smiled bitterly, "But the guest said it's just a nice thing, but in fact he is just a lackey of the big family. Although Lei Zhen is in a down-and-out position, he is not going to be a lackey of the big family."

Hearing words.

Chen Daoxuan tapped the seat lightly, making a clattering sound.

Lei Zhen appeared honest and honest, but in fact he was very smart. Before Chen Daoxuan could speak out, Lei Zhen blocked his next words.

He Lei Zhen is not willing to be a lackey in the big family, but how can he be a lackey in the Chen family?

After all, although the Chen family was also recognized by the Guang'an Prefecture clan, there was still a gap between them in terms of strength and background.

Even though Chen Daoxuan has successfully transferred to the "Qianyuan Sword Sutra", the power of the true essence has soared by 70%, and he can faintly touch the extreme true essence mentioned in the "Qianyuan Sword Sutra".

On strength.

If Chen Daoxuan meets the early stage zombie of the Purple Mansion again, it will no longer be evenly matched with it. Maybe there is no blood evil formation in the Ten Thousand Corpses to repair its injuries, and Chen Daoxuan will have the chance to kill it.

In other words.

Now Chen Daoxuan's strength is three points stronger than ordinary early stage cultivators of the Purple Mansion.

The Chen family's strength is naturally rising, but it is still worse than the Zhou family and the Yang family.

Since Lei Zhen can even refuse to recruit Zhou and Yang families, let alone the Chen family.

Knowing the difficulty of soliciting, Chen Daoxuan didn't care and said with a smile: "I'll ask, General Lei is Gui Geng this year?"

Hearing this.

Lei Zhen seemed a little unhappy, but he still clasped his fists and said, "Lei is 87 years old this year."

Eighty-seven years old, eighth floors of foundation building!

"Are you a cultivator of the Heavenly Spirit Root?"

Chen Daoxuan said seriously.

"yes."

Lei Zhen nodded, "But compared to you sword cultivators..."

Lei Zhen shook his head in disappointment.

So what about the cultivator of Tianling Root? Although one in a million people choose from the Tianling Root, there are at least hundreds of people with Tianling Root.

Looking at the entire Cangzhou, the Tianling Root Cultivator has increased ten times, dozens of times more than ten times.

There are nearly a hundred states in the entire Ten Thousand Star Sea. Although the Tianling Root Cultivator is also considered a genius, if he is a genius, it is still far from enough.

Only sword cultivators like Zhou Mubai and Chen Daoxuan can truly be called the genius among monks. They are not only invincible at the same level, but also can fight beyond the level, and they are suddenly not like humans.

Chen Daoxuan finally knew why Lei Zhen was so angry that he didn't want to be a guest minister of the great clan.

At the age of 87, you can reach the eighth level of foundation building. At most, it takes less than ten years to reach the nineth level of foundation building.

At that time, we will polish our true energy and prepare to break through the Purple Mansion.

At Lei Zhen's age, if he goes to the front line and accumulates resources, he may be really expected to be promoted to the Zifu Period.

After all, the lifespan of a foundation-building monk is as high as two hundred years.

Lei Zhen polished his true energy to a perfect state, probably less than 110 years old.

It's completely time to break through the Purple Mansion.

The only pity is that Lei Zhen is not a family monk, and he has to earn all the cultivation resources he needs on his own.

If the children of a large family had such talent, they would have been trained as core children long ago.

Just like Zhou Mubai and Yang Gongwan.

As for this, Chen Daoxuan no longer conceals it.

He bowed and said, "If my Chen family is willing to provide all the resources for General Lei to break through the Purple Mansion, I wonder if General Lei is willing to be my Chen family guest?"

"You mean, breaking through all the resources to the Zifu Period?"

In desperation, Lei Zhen even forgot about his respectful title.

"That's right!"

Chen Daoxuan nodded, "Not only that, in the future, my Chen family is willing to help General Lei develop a family of immortal cultivation and pass on the Taoist tradition from generation to generation."

Hearing this.

Lei Zhen immediately breathed rapidly and bowed, "Master Commander, no, Lord Chen is serious about this?"

"What's wrong with this? If General Lei doesn't believe it, what will I swear?"

"No, no!"

Lei Zhen waved his hands repeatedly, "I, Lei Zhen, can trust the promise of a sword cultivator!"

After saying that.

Lei Zhen immediately stood up from his seat and stood straight in front of Chen Daoxuan.

Immediately, he pushed Jinshan, turned over the jade pillar, and knelt down and said, "Lei is willing to drive the Chen family in the future and will not stop until his death!"
