Chapter 415: Chapter 415: Fourth Elder Situ Qingchen!

"Disciple Lu Chen, pays respects to the Fourth Elder!"

Lu Chen remembered him but had never expected that Fourth Elder Situ Qingchen would be waiting for him at the base of Zhaixing Peak!

Moreover, when they were gathered around the stove boiling tea earlier, Situ Qingchen wasn’t there!

So, apart from those few elders, there were others keeping an eye on Lu Chen!

They...

What did they want?

"Lu Chen, you’re not cultivating inside Zhaixing Peak, where are you heading to this time?"

Situ Qingchen said with a smile, appearing extremely amiable.

"Replying to the Fourth Elder," Lu Chen feigned respect, "This disciple was indeed planning to go to Ninefold Peak for cultivation!"

"Oh?"

Situ Qingchen raised an eyebrow and asked, "What’s the matter, is Nine... Seventh Junior Brother not allowing you to cultivate at Zhaixing Peak?"

"It’s like this," Lu Chen pretended, and answered, "The disciple accidentally damaged Eighth Elder’s tea seat, and the master said to craft an item as compensation for him, fearing that this disciple would cause more trouble here, so he sent this disciple to cultivate. But this disciple feels that cultivating by the Earth Fire cave hole yields better results, thus plans to go to Ninefold Peak."

Having said this, he was carefully watching for any change in Situ Qingchen’s expression.

As expected, he caught a glimpse of a peculiar look!

But whether that peculiarity was due to his faster cultivation by the cave hole, or because of the tea seat, was unknown!

Zhu Chongjiu had said that he took him as a disciple because of his five elements Spirit Root and the inherent fire power. He also truly found a reason previously that involved swallowing fire natured Spiritual Medicine.

Furthermore, Danyang Zi placed such high importance on him, it could have also attracted the attention of a group of elders, it was all uncertain.

But the purpose of it all...

Perhaps tomorrow’s visit to Ning Changzhong’s Eighth Peak will reveal some answers.

"Rare for you to return to Ninefold Peak," Situ Qingchen quickly put away that peculiar look and said with a smile toward Lu Chen, "It’s a long journey, let this elder take you there!"

The peaks seemed close when viewed from the summit, but if one were to walk, they’d have to cross several Nameless Mountain Peaks, which would take an entire hour.

Situ Qingchen responded with a smile, waved his hand to summon a streak of spiritual power, and flew up with Lu Chen.

In just the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, Lu Chen had already landed in the valley of Ninefold Peak.

"This disciple thanks the Fourth Elder heartily."

Lu Chen bowed, sensing the friendly gesture from Situ Qingchen.

"Never mind," Situ Qingchen took out a wooden amulet from his chest and said, "If you find the cultivation at Ninefold Peak unsatisfactory, feel free to come to this elder’s peak."

Another wooden amulet obtained, Lu Chen didn’t stand on ceremony and took it directly into his bosom, "This disciple thanks the Fourth Elder in advance!"

"Hahaha," Situ Qingchen laughed heartily, stepping into the air, leaving behind a phrase, "We’re all disciples of the sect, just come whenever you wish!"

After a short while, the valley of Ninefold Peak returned to its peaceful state.

Only then did Lu Chen enter the cave dwelling.

Now, only the Second and Third Elders had not shown goodwill.

The First Elder, Li Haorong, had directly given him the wooden amulet from the start...

"What is it for exactly? Could it be that the Spiritual Fire within me has been discovered?"

Lu Chen was puzzled.

Shaking his head, he entered into the cave dwelling.

He didn’t know how to trigger the protections, but figured since he wasn’t there to consume Fire Essence, simply sitting there to refine Qi didn’t matter if someone came or not.

Thus, he headed straight for the cave hole, and at a glance, he saw the magma flowing in the fire veins, filled with an endless aura of fire power. Lu Chen slowly sat down and started running the Heaven-Breaking Spiritual Method!

This pure fire power didn’t require any refinement at all, it simply entered his body directly into the nine meridians and ultimately flowed into the Dantian in his lower abdomen!

The Spiritual Fire hidden beneath the Dao platform also instantly became jubilant.

"My Fire Spiritual Power is transformed from the Five Elements Spiritual Power, and is also the purest Fire Spiritual Power! Could it be that this Fire Spiritual Power is still not comparable to the fire power of these fire veins?"

Through the reaction of the Spiritual Fire, Lu Chen immediately noticed the difference in spiritual power!
