Chapter 535 Swordsman Ke Haoran, Testing
Although Chen Xuan is not a cultivator from Zhongzhou.
He also did a lot of homework when he came to Zhongzhou.
I also know some famous things about Zhongzhou.
The Haoran Zhengqi Jue in front of him is a well-known martial art in Zhongzhou.
There was nothing Chen Xuan didn't understand.
"It is said that in those days, the swordsman Haoran defeated all the heroes with his flying sword. After reaching the initial stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm, he broke through the void and left."
"Could this Haoran Zhengqi Jue be the main cultivation method that Ke Haoran practices?"
Chen Xuan's heart was pounding wildly at this moment.
A generation of swordsman!
What a domineering and legendary figure!
Chen Xuan never thought that after coming to Zhongzhou, he would find Ke Haoran's main practice method so quickly.
"Haha, Master Xuan Chen has a keen eye. Although this Haoran Zhengqi Jue was also created by Ke Haoran, it is not his main practice method, but a cultivation method."
"Moreover, the Haoran Zhengqi Jue in my hand is just a fragment of a scroll."
Zhu Jinghui smiled calmly and explained seriously.
When Chen Xuan heard this, he was suddenly disappointed.
But he didn't say much.
After spending a whole meal and roughly reading the contents of Haoran Zhengqi Jue, I felt much better instantly.
"Although this Haoran Zhengqi Jue is only a secret technique, it is very useful for cultivating one's own flying sword."
"Also, it has the miraculous effect of increasing the spiritual power of my natal flying sword."
"If you practice for a long time, you can make your flying sword spirituality reach a higher level."
"This secret technique does not conflict with the Soul Controlling Technique that I am practicing."
“As for the Haoran Zhengqi Jue, it is of course still effective in removing the evil spirit of the sky.”
Thinking of this, Chen Xuan still did not agree to Zhu Jinghui's conditions.
With a faint smile, he directly gave the jade slip of Haoran Zhengqi Jue to Zhu Jinghui.
"My Lord City Lord, if it is the complete Haoran Zhengqi Jue, I will naturally not refuse it. But this is only a fragment. For me, the effect is discounted."
Zhu Jinghui could clearly understand what Chen Xuan meant.
He immediately said with a smile: "Master Xuan Chen, the Haoran Zhengqi Jue in my hand is only a fragment. But it is also a very rare Taoist authentic practice method. I'm afraid you don't know that in Zhongzhou, any inheritance cannot be passed on to outsiders. Even some small families are like this."
"It is already very difficult for me to produce the fragments of the Haoran Zhengqi Jue."
When he saw Zhu Jinghui, he had no intention of raising the price at all.
However, Chen Xuan stood up without any hesitation.
"Lord City Lord, I remember that I still have a few furnaces of elixirs that I haven't refined yet. I have bothered you for so long today, so I naturally dare not stay for long..."
"Fellow Taoist, wait!"
Before Chen Xuan stood up, Zhu Jinghui immediately tried to persuade him to stay.
When Chen Xuan came in, he had been secretly watching Chen Xuan's every move.
The realm that Chen Xuan is currently displaying is only the initial stage of Jindan.
But the sense of oppression he brought to Zhu Jinghui was no weaker than that of any powerful late Jindan stage expert.
Zhu Jinghui asked himself, Chen Xuan is naturally the best candidate to represent Linbian City and attend the Hundred Cities Conference.
If Chen Xuan rejected him and wanted him to find other suitable candidates at the Linbian Dharma Assembly to represent Linbian City in the Hundred Cities Conference, it would be a bit difficult.
"We in Linbian City are holding the Linbian Dharma Assembly at all costs in order to expand Linbian City's influence among the Jindan-stage cultivators. We want those powerful independent cultivators to come to our Linbian City."
"Unfortunately, over the years, the number of Jindan-stage experts who have come to our Linbian City is still very limited."
“Even if Daoist Xuan Chen is unwilling to represent Linbian City in the Hundred Cities Conference, I should not be hostile to him.”
Thinking of this, Zhu Jinghui said with an apologetic look on his face: "Fellow Daoist Xuan Chen, please don't be angry. What I said just now was not meant to be an exaggeration."
"Since you know about the swordsman Ke Haoran, you should know how difficult it is for us to get the fragment of Haoran Zhengqi Jue in Linbian Town."
"Although this Haoran Zhengqi Jue is incomplete, it is still valuable. However, I am willing to give it to Master Xuan Chen."
"As for whether Master Xuan Chen is willing to agree to represent our Linbian City in the Hundred Cities Conference, we will talk about it later."
Zhu Jinghui said this at the end with a sincere look on his face.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan couldn't refuse.
Firstly, even if this Haoran Zhengqi Jue cannot completely eliminate the evil spirit in his body, it can effectively suppress the evil spirit's outbreak. The benefits to him are self-evident.
Secondly, the complexity of the Zhongzhou cultivation world was far beyond his expectations. A mid-stage Jindan strongman like Taoist Tianyun could only become a guest elder in a small town.
With Chen Xuan's current level of cultivation, it would be extremely difficult for him to obtain the Taoist or Buddhist secret techniques.
It would be better to get the remaining scroll of Haoran Zhengqi Jue first.
"This……"
Chen Xuan hesitated slightly.
He glanced at the Lord of Linbian City and said with a smile, "I naturally cannot refuse the Lord's kindness. However, this Haoran Zhengqi Jue is indeed useful to me, but I can't take it for nothing."
"I think the city lord is not far from the Nascent Soul stage now, right? I wonder how confident you are in reaching the Nascent Soul stage?"
Nascent Soul stage!
It has an indescribable attraction for any immortal cultivator in the Jindan stage.
Zhu Jinghui is naturally no exception.
"It is so difficult to reach the Nascent Soul stage. Although I am determined to become a Nascent Soul stage expert, my chances are not very high."
When Zhu Jinghui said this, his expression became very solemn.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan flipped his hand and took out a jade bottle.
"My Lord City Lord, this is a top-grade Nascent Soul Pill. It will also be of some help to you in condensing your Nascent Soul. My Lord City Lord, please do not refuse it." Chen Xuan said with a smile.
A bright light flashed in Zhu Jinghui's eyes.
Top-grade infant-nourishing elixir!
This is not something an ordinary alchemist can produce.
Even though Chen Xuan was an alchemist who could refine top-grade elixirs, the fact that he could produce a top-grade infant-nourishing pill was enough to show that his strength and alchemy level were far beyond that of ordinary cultivators.
But, at the moment, Zhu Jinghui really couldn't refuse.
"Haha, thank you, Fellow Daoist Xuan Chen. I will not refuse this."
Zhu Jinghui laughed loudly and quickly put away the Peiying Pill.
Chen Xuan didn't hesitate and directly put away the remaining scroll of Haoran Zhengqi Jue.
After chatting with Zhu Jinghui for a while, Chen Xuan said goodbye and left.
Zhu Jinghui personally escorted Chen Xuan out of the City Lord's Mansion before returning to the reception hall.
At this moment, Zhu Xun'er was already waiting in the reception room.
Seeing Zhu Jinghui coming in, Zhu Xun'er said angrily: "This Taoist Xuan Chen is so arrogant. As the Lord of Linbian City, you personally recruited him, but he didn't even give you face. He really doesn't know how to appreciate your kindness."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Jinghui frowned.
His serious gaze quickly turned to Zhu Xun'er.
"Xun'er! Don't ever say such things again. Look, what is this thing."
Zhu Jinghui flipped his hand and took out a jade bottle.
What was inside was the top-grade infant-nourishing elixir that Chen Xuan had given him.
"Is this... a baby-cultivating pill? Or a top-grade one?"
"I remember five years ago, when you went to Liuyun City to attend the auction, a low-grade infant-cultivating pill appeared in Liuyun City. In the end, it was fiercely bid for by countless Jindan-stage cultivators. In the end, the powerful cultivator in the late Jindan stage who auctioned the low-grade infant-cultivating pill was killed on the street just after he left the auction site. The low-grade infant-cultivating pill in his hand also disappeared. Could it be that... this infant-cultivating pill was given to you by Daoist Xuan Chen?"
Seeing Zhu Jinghui nodded, Zhu Xun'er's face was full of surprise.
Chen Xuan could give away something like the Peiying Pill whenever he wanted, which shows how wealthy Chen Xuan is.
What's more, when Chen Xuan gave out the Peiying Pill, he didn't show the slightest sign of worry.
This is enough to show that he didn't take Linbian City seriously at all.
Faced with such a talented and powerful person, Zhu Xun'er, even as the daughter of the lord of Linbian City, had to treat him with caution.
"I didn't expect this Daoist Xuan Chen to be so powerful. No wonder he is not interested in my father's recruitment."
Zhu Xun'er looked disappointed.
Seeing this, Zhu Jinghui smiled and said, "Xun'er, don't worry. If Daoist Xuan Chen didn't take the Haoran Zhengqi Jue, I naturally wouldn't dare to expect him to agree to let us attend the Hundred Cities Conference in Linbian City. Since he took the Haoran Zhengqi Jue, I am 80% sure that he will agree to represent us in Linbian City and attend the Hundred Cities Conference."
"This……"
Zhu Xun'er looked puzzled.
Zhu Jinghui, however, looked mysterious.
……
Near the border town, there is a small detached building where Chen Xuan stayed.
hum!
Chen Xuan waved his hand, and the protective formation in the small building was fully activated.
Soon, Fox appeared in front of Chen Xuan.
"Hello, master!" said the fox.
Chen Xuan nodded and casually threw the incomplete scroll of Haoran Zhengqi Jue that he had just obtained to Hu'er.
"Please check for me to see if this jade slip has been tampered with." Chen Xuan said.
Chen Xuan frowned slightly.
He was not a rookie who had just embarked on the path of cultivation, so he naturally knew Zhu Jinghui's thoughts very well.
At first, Zhu Jinghui wanted to use the Haoran Zhengqi Jue as a condition to let Chen Xuan represent Linbian City to attend the Hundred Cities Conference.
After seeing Chen Xuan's refusal, he decisively gave the Haoran Zhengqi Jue to Chen Xuan.
This kind of transformation cannot be achieved simply by having courage.
Although Chen Xuan did not say anything when he was in the City Lord's Mansion, he had actually long suspected that Zhu Jinghui had tampered with the Haoran Zhengqi Jue jade slip.
After a long time, Fox returned the jade slip to Chen Xuan.
"Master, Fox doesn't see anything wrong." Fox said.
"That's strange. If that's the case, why did Zhu Jinghui generously give me the Haoran Zhengqi Jue?"
Chen Xuan frowned slightly.
However, Chen Xuan was not too worried.
After all, he didn't get the Haoran Zhengqi Jue for nothing.
The top-grade infant-cultivating pill he gave to Zhu Jinghui, if we only talk about its value, is far superior to the Haoran Zhengqi Jue for Zhu Jinghui.
The meaning of giving the Peiying Pill to Zhu Jinghui is to trade the Peiying Pill for the Haoran Zhengqi Jue.
"Continue to protect me!"
Chen Xuan gave an order to Fox, and with a thought he went directly into the Beast Taming Tower.
Wow!
In the Beast Taming Tower, rich spiritual energy from heaven and earth was rapidly attacking Chen Xuan.
After Chen Xuan found a place to sit cross-legged, he took out the Haoran Zhengqi Jue and began to comprehend it word by word.
After waiting in the Beast Taming Tower for a full year, Chen Xuan, who was comprehending the Haoran Zhengqi Jue, suddenly opened his eyes.
A strange look flashed across his eyes.
"No wonder Zhu Jinghui readily gave me the Haoran Zhengqi Jue. So this is what he was planning?"
