In the bamboo forest.

Lu Chen looked at the monks who had returned and immediately asked, How is it? Are there any towns around here?

Hong Hua from Juling Sect stepped forward and said with a serious face: Yes, there is a small town called Yuzhu Town not far away from the bamboo forest.

But because we remembered that you said not to contact people from this world easily, so I came back after seeing the town from a distance.

Lu Chen nodded, then looked at the other group of people.

Seeing Lu Chen looking at him, a gangster from the Hundred Refining Sect said: Friend Lu, you are right. Not far from the residence of Immortal Gu Yue, some monsters slowly began to move.

After hearing these two pieces of information, Lu Chen nodded, as if he already knew what he wanted.

Ordinary monks might not understand what Lu Chen was doing.

But the seven gangsters present at Juling Sect, Wuxiang Valley, and Jiuxuan Sect knew very well what Lu Chen's purpose was.

After all, to people in this world, those who participated in the True Immortal Trial are, in a sense, a group of extraterrestrial demons.

Even if their appearance is similar to the people here in Daluo Dongtian.

But neither side regards themselves as their own.

After all, they just came to participate in a trial and left directly after the trial.

Whether the world is good or bad, whether their actions will have a huge impact on the world.

The vast majority of trialists actually don't care.

At this point, Gang Ni, who came from the ancient world to the world of cultivating immortals, is actually in the same situation as Lu Chen and others who came to this world.

No one can say how people in this world will treat them.

Lu Chen, who was accustomed to preparing for the worst in everything, would never rashly come into contact with a group of beings he didn't understand.

Now that he understood that there were indeed human beings living in Daluo Cave, Lu Chen immediately thought of a countermeasure.

He looked at everyone and warned: The situation is unclear at the moment. You should first set up some formations around the courtyard of Gu Yue Immortal, and then see if anyone enters the bamboo forest.

Once someone enters the bamboo forest, control them temporarily.

Without knowing the specific situation of the cave here, we'd better not act rashly to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.

After hearing what Lu Chen said, the seven gangsters from Juling Sect, Wuxiang Valley, and Jiuxuan Sect, as well as the people from Yuxu Mountain and Qingyun Sect, did not object.

But some disciples from other sects don’t think so.

After all, they already know that there is more than one wine bug.

But only the first person to bring the wine bug to True Immortal Gu Yue can get the reward.

So time is the most important thing for them now.

A true disciple of Bailian Valley couldn't help but said: Fellow Daoist Lu, are you being too cautious?

While we are here, what if someone else finds the wine bug first and gets there first?

In this regard, before Lu Chen could say anything, Hong Hua from the Giant Spirit Sect mocked: Idiot, you think this is your sect, can you come and go at will?

When the disciple from Bailian Valley heard this, his face instantly darkened.

If these words were said by Lu Chen or a true disciple of the other ten sects, even if he was dissatisfied, he would not say anything more.

But when these words came from the mouth of Hong Hua, a disciple of the Giant Spirit Sect, he couldn't bear it anymore.

When did a mere barbarian from Eastern China become so arrogant towards the disciples of a major sect in Zhongzhou?

So the disciple from Bailian Valley said directly and coldly: Fellow Daoist Hong, be careful that trouble comes from your mouth.

Facing the threat from the disciples of Bailian Valley, Hong Hua didn't care at all.

That scoundrel looks like a piece of meat that is not afraid of being burned.

Such an attitude naturally made the disciple of Bailian Valley even more angry.

Fortunately, someone came out to smooth things over at this time.

Stop arguing, that boy from Bailian Valley, didn't your parents tell you that whenever you go to an unknown cave, you must be as vigilant as possible?

What even I know, can the true disciples of the Bailian Valley know? Don't be confused by the true immortal inheritance, otherwise you may have the heart to inherit the inheritance, but you will not have the destiny to inherit it.

If you have any dissatisfaction with my junior brother's arrangements, it's very simple. You can go out on your own. No one will stop you here.

After being punished by King Meow Meow like this, Ye Guangze of Bailian Valley finally calmed down.

Because everything was just as King Meow Meow said, it was really best for them to be careful at the moment.

Just when a few people wanted to say something, another group of monks who went out to explore came back.

Only this time they came back with a seriously injured and dying monk in their hands.

This person is none other than Sui Shaobao from Donghaimen.

Seeing this scene, Lu Chen immediately frowned, wondering what he had discovered.

Where did you find him?

He was already unconscious when we found him on the edge of a bamboo forest near that town.

Put him down first.

When the five monks who discovered Sui Shaobao heard this, they subconsciously placed the unconscious Sui Shaobao on the ground.

Then Lu Chen walked up to the five people, and suddenly a blood-red sword appeared in his hand.

Looking at the strange vertical eyes on the blood-red sword, the five monks suddenly felt like they were being targeted by some ancient evil creature.

Almost out of instinct, a monk couldn't help but say: Fellow Daoist Lu, what are you...

Before he could finish his words, a large amount of red mist was released from the blood-red sword.

After the red mist covered the five monks and Sui Shaobao on the ground, they immediately made a sizzling sound.

It was as if something had been swallowed up.

Not only that, the red mist also entered the bodies of the five monks.

Under the influence of the red mist, the five monks noticed the situation inside their bodies.

They were actually unknowingly invaded by some tiny poisonous insects.

And these Gu insects seem to be naturally able to block the perception of monks' spiritual power.

So much so that they didn't notice it along the way.

Lu Chen's gluttonous soldiers finished devouring the poisonous insects in these five monks.

He turned to look at Sui Shaobao on the ground.

[Name: Sui Shaobao (True Disciple of Donghai Sect)]

[Cultivation: The foundation building period is complete]

[Quality of foundation building: fifth-grade authentic immortal foundation]

[Status: Seriously injured/parasitized]

Junior brother, this guy is hopeless. Half of the spiritual roots in his body have been eaten by those insects. Even if he is rescued, he will still be a useless person.

King Meow Meow came to Sui Shaobao, and after some perception, he said with an ugly face.

Regarding this, Lu Chen thought for a moment and then said: Senior Brother Mingmiao, please step away first.

Hearing this, King Meow Meow immediately stepped back a distance.

In the surprised eyes of everyone, Lu Chen put away his original gluttonous ferocious soldiers.

It was replaced by a white spirit sword.

Lu Chen held the Jue Tian Sword and stabbed Sui Shaobao's Dantian fiercely.

The strange thing is that after the sword passed through Sui Shaobao's body, it did not cause any damage to his body.

But in everyone's perception, the Gu insects that were originally entrenched around Sui Shaobao's spiritual root were also dying in large pieces at this time.

But even if these are solved, Sui Shaobao's danger is still not eliminated.

Because those Gu insects can devour Sui Shaobao's spiritual roots, they can naturally devour his other body organs.

Although the blood mist that Lu Chen had just released had swallowed up most of the Gu worms in Sui Shaobao's body.

But there is no way to completely recover the organs that were eaten by the Gu worms.

Not to mention that Sui Shaobao's spiritual roots are still basically in a semi-disabled state.

But just because ordinary people couldn't do things, it didn't mean that Lu Chen couldn't do it.

Unless his soul is gone, Lu Chen can now bring Sui Shaobao back from the gate of hell.

And he must also bring Sui Shaobao back.

Because he needed the information from Sui Shaobao.

There is no doubt that the reason why Sui Shaobao ended up in such a situation must have something to do with the people in that small town.

And it can bring a true disciple of a large sect to almost half death.

The town is definitely not as simple as it seems.

Listen carefully...

Woof!

A picture scroll appeared behind Lu Chen.

Di Ting immediately jumped out of the scroll.

Brother, what do you want from me?

Lu Chen pointed to Sui Shaobao on the ground and said, Can he be rescued?

After looking at Sui Shaobao's condition, Di Ting frowned in a rare way and said, Brother, this matter is a bit difficult to handle...

As long as you have the breath.

That's easy!

Di Ting initially thought that Lu Chen wanted him to cure Sui Shaobao until he was in his prime. This was not impossible for Di Ting to do, but it would require a certain amount of original power.

But if it's just a tone, it's too simple.

Di Ting came to his side and immediately let a large amount of the Nine Innate Qi enter Sui Shaobao's body.

Under the nourishment of these nine innate qi, Sui Shaobao's organs, which had been in danger of being destroyed, gradually repaired.

Even his spiritual roots recovered a little in the process.

After a moment, Sui Shaobao opened his eyes.

He looked at Lu Chen and others who appeared around him, and his original despair was quickly replaced by a sense of survival after a disaster.

Thinking of the Gu cultivators in the Luo family in the small town, Sui Shaobao said in a hoarse voice: Don't get close to that town, otherwise you will only end up like me...

After hearing Sui Shaobao's words, the expressions of the people around him became serious.

Lu Chen looked at him and said calmly: Tell me what you encountered.

After Sui Shaobao's explanation, Lu Chen and others finally understood what happened to them.

I also understand their current situation.

After all, when Sui Shaobao first arrived at the Luo family, the other party still answered all questions at the beginning in order to make them relax their vigilance.

Through this process, Sui Shaobao also learned a lot of basic information about the Daying Dynasty.

And some information about Gu cultivators.

As the name suggests, Gu cultivators are a group of special monks who use 'Gu insects' to practice.

All their strength comes from the Gu worms in their bodies.

Whether a Gu cultivator is strong or not depends on the state of the Gu worm in his body, and the other is the quality of the Gu worm.

In Gu cultivation, the realm of Gu insects is divided into four realms, which correspond in turn to the monk's Qi training period, foundation building, golden elixir, and Nascent Soul.

The quality of Gu insects is divided into four types, namely 'Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang'.

Among them, the 'Heaven-level Gu Insects' are not only unique, but their strength is often terrifying.

He was born with strength comparable to that of a second-level Gu cultivator.

When you reach adulthood, you must have the strength to complete the four realms and be able to soar through the air.

That's right, in the current Daluo Cave Heaven, the cultivation level can only reach the Nascent Soul stage at most.

However, Lu Chen speculated that the Nascent Soul stage of this world would not take action easily.

After all, the purpose of True Immortal Gu Yue is to refine Gu, and right now they are the so-called Gu insects.

If they were to encounter a Gu cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage, then this would not be refining Gu, but a massacre.

Therefore, Lu Chen speculated that the Yuanying stage Gu cultivators in this world might exist independently from the Daying Dynasty.

It should play a role similar to that of a ‘referee’.

As long as both parties in the game do not violate the rules, the referee will not intervene.

At this point, Lu Chen had almost figured out the current situation of the True Immortal Trial.

Now only the minutiae remain.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Chen said to Sui Shaobao, Did you just say that when you entered Yuzhu Town, you once felt like you were being watched?

Sui Shaobao nodded.

Do you know who is spying on you?

Sui Shaobao shook his head and said he didn't know.

At first Sui Shaobao thought that the person peeping at him might be someone from the Luo family.

But looking back now, Sui Shaobao realized that he didn't feel that feeling after arriving at Luo's house.

And he didn't think the Luo family and others had this ability.

The reason why their three brothers ended up dead, one seriously injured, and one escaped.

The core reason is that they did not know the methods of Gu cultivators before, so they were beaten by calculations without intention.

If they had known this in advance, Sui Shaobao would have been confident that he could defeat them all with just two Level 2 Gu cultivators in the Luo family.

However, he was poisoned in advance, and his strength was completely reduced, which is why he ended up in this situation.

After Lu Chen thought for a moment, he speculated: Insects in nature have certain methods to distinguish between similar species. If you are right, then Gu cultivators may be able to sense that there are no Gu insects in their bodies. Otherwise, how can they Did you assume from the beginning that you are not monks from the Daying Immortal Dynasty?

So if we want to deceive those Gu cultivators, we must either find a Gu worm and plant it into our bodies like the Gu cultivators.

Another way is to keep a Gu worm close by.

But the second method should only be able to deceive ordinary Gu cultivators, and it should not be effective for Gu cultivators above the third level.

So if we want to leave the bamboo forest and sneak into the Daying Dynasty, the best way is to first find some Gu insects to disguise ourselves.

But before that, let's entertain those distinguished guests who have come from afar.

As he spoke, Lu Chen raised his head and looked in a certain direction outside the bamboo forest.

Seeing Lu Chen's actions, King Meow Meow and others beside him also stood up.

Because they sensed that a lot of people seemed to have gathered outside the bamboo forest.

And these are following the 'message' left by Sui Shaobao, heading all the way to the depths of the bamboo forest...
