Wrath of the Immortal

"Brother, tell me the truth. Did the Iron Rooster do it?"

Xiao Chen woke up quietly and found himself lying on the bed with gauze tied all over his body.

Wang Shun stood in front of him and said with worry on his face.

"I didn't think it over, I just accidentally fell off the mountain!"

Xiao Chen explained briefly, but just as he was about to move, heart-rending pain shot through his body.

"Don't move. You have broken bones all over your body. You won't be able to get out of bed for half a year."

Wang Shun told Xiao Chen that he didn't find the fire crystal, so he wanted to come back and rest.

On the way, I happened to see Xiao Chen rolling down the mountain, so I and several fellow apprentices carried him back.

"Iron Rooster is so cruel, I knew this guy had no good intentions!"

Wang Shun mistakenly thought that Deng Yongfei attacked Xiao Chen from behind and pushed Xiao Chen down from the mountain.

"Brother, I really accidentally rolled down the mountain..."

Xiao Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he could only explain it forcefully.

However, the more Xiao Chen explained, the more Wang Shun didn't believe it.

"Don't lie to me, Zhang Xue said that you discovered the fire crystal stone together."

"Iron Rooster wants to take it all for himself, so tell Zhang Xue and ask her to tell us where the treasure is!"

"You are so loyal, all the brothers obey you!"

"As long as you say a word, I will take my brothers to the mountain to find the elder and accuse him of murdering my fellow disciples!"

"..."

Wang Shun kept talking and said four sentences in one breath.

In his eyes, Xiao Chen has long become the embodiment of justice and must be supported.

"Forget it, just rest for a while!"

Although Xiao Chen didn't like Deng Yongfei, he would not accuse others unfairly and waved his hand.

"How can we forget it? I know him too well. Even if you don't make trouble for him, he won't let you go!"

Wang Shun gritted his teeth and said.

At this time, there was a creak and the door opened.

Deng Yongfei walked in and saw Xiao Chen lying on the bed with a sneer on his lips.

"Xiao Chen, you should know the rules of peripheral disciples better than me! If you don't complete the task, you won't have food to eat!"

Deng Yongfei came over and said proudly.

"Iron Rooster, you have hurt him like this, how dare you say that?"

Wang Shun was very loyal and roared at Deng Yongfei.

"What did you say? Did I do it? Ha! I heard that he slipped under his feet and rolled down the mountain!"

Deng Yongfei said angrily.

"You're talking nonsense, you were clearly the one who pushed me down!"

Wang Shun clenched his fists and said fiercely.

If the disparity in strength wasn't so great, he would have wanted to slap the other person to death.

"Shut up and accuse me if you have evidence. If you don't, then stop barking incompetently!"

Deng Yongfei glared at Wang Shun, threw up his sleeves and left.

"Senior Brother Wang, calm down."

Wang Shun was furious and was about to chase him out when Xiao Chen called out to him.

"Calm down? How do you want me to calm down?"

Wang Shun said very unhappy.

"When we become official disciples, it won't be too late to cause trouble for him!"

Xiao Chen advised.

In the world of immortality, the weak eat the strong, and strength speaks for itself.

If he comes forward now, not only will he not be able to cure Deng Yongfei, but he will also cause a lot of trouble.

Deng Yongfei is a registered disciple with a first-level cultivation level at the Qi Refining stage.

If there was a grudge and the other party wanted to kill them, it couldn't be easier.

This revenge is not unavenged, the time has not come yet.

Xiao Chen knew how to be patient, and with his persuasion, Wang Shun slowly calmed down.

"Brother, you are right. When we become official disciples, we must destroy him!"

Wang Shun clenched his fists and said.

Immediately afterwards, he took out a yellowed note from his arms.

"This is?"

Xiao Chen asked as he looked at the note.

"Didn't I say that I would give you a great blessing? Open it and take a look!"

Wang Shun smiled slyly and signaled Xiao Chen to quickly open the note and take a look.

Xiao Chen was not a pretentious person. He opened the note and took a look and was stunned.

The words written on the note turned out to be all cultivation techniques.

Although it is only at the first level of Qi Refining Stage, this item is still worth thousands of gold among peripheral disciples.

"Brother, you don't know how to read, do you?"

Wang Shun looked embarrassed when he saw Xiao Chen's reaction.

"Where did you get this?"

Xiao Chen calmed down and asked.

"I'm telling you, you must never tell anyone else."

When Wang Shun saw Xiao Chen nodding, he lowered his voice and spoke.

"If you want to become a formal disciple, you don't have to stay here for three years. There is an easier way."

Wang Shun changed the topic and said mysteriously.

"An easier way? How did you get the cultivation method?"

Xiao Chen asked again.

He couldn't tell Wang Shun his secret and could only pretend to know nothing.

"There is nothing in this world that money cannot buy. I bought this thing from a named disciple."

Wang Shun chuckled and said proudly.

He was originally a disciple of a wealthy family, and his family was well-off. He brought a lot of money with him when he came here.

In the eyes of formal disciples, banknotes are mundane things.

But it is different in the eyes of the registered disciples. Although they are qualified to cultivate immortals, they have not cut off the mortal world.

He often sneaks down the mountain, drinks wine and eats meat, and even goes to romantic occasions to be cool.

That's why they need money and will find ways to exchange for it.

Without adventure, peripheral disciples will never become official disciples.

Only by first becoming a registered disciple of a certain elder and performing well can one have the possibility of becoming a formal disciple.

Wang Shun's biggest dream was to become a registered disciple, so he secretly bought the cultivation techniques.

As long as you cultivate a bit of spiritual power and get close to the elders, it is not difficult to become a registered disciple.

"Can I buy this too?"

Xiao Chen's eyes widened and he pretended to be surprised.

"It's not easy to get this thing. The magic formula for cultivating immortals can only be sold to peripheral disciples. If it is sold to the mortal world, it will be a death penalty."

Seeing Xiao Chen's disbelief, Wang Shun became a little anxious and explained in detail.

Xiao Chen suddenly realized that many of these peripheral disciples were only children in their families.

Although the sect provides some pensions, the money is barely enough for food and clothing.

Many of the registered disciples wanted to get some money to send home.

This formed an unwritten rule. As long as you could afford the money, you could buy the cultivation techniques.

"After the sect found out about this, wouldn't you pursue it?"

Xiao Chen asked subconsciously.

"As long as the cultivation methods are not spread, who will ask about it?"

"The spiritual roots of us peripheral disciples are too weak. Even if we get the cultivation method, we still can't figure it out."

"Besides, many elders secretly support this matter..."

Wang Shun didn't hide anything from Xiao Chen and told everything he knew in one breath.

"Are you secretly supporting such a shady thing?"

Xiao Chen was slightly startled and said in surprise.

"The elders will come to inspect every three years. As long as the cultivation reaches the first level of Qi Refining Stage, they will be accepted as registered disciples."

Wang Shuntai wanted to become a registered disciple. When he said this, longing flashed in his eyes.

For others, after listening to these words, they will gain some insights at most.

For Xiao Chen, it was a huge surprise.

This is an opportunity that you must seize and become a registered disciple as soon as possible!

"I have eighteen spiritual roots. It's too difficult to cultivate spiritual power!"

Wang Shun sighed, feeling unspeakably depressed.

He knew in his heart that it was almost impossible to cultivate spiritual power with more than ten spiritual roots.

"By the way, Xiao Chen, how many spiritual roots do you have? Are you better than me?"

Wang Shun changed the subject and looked at Xiao Chen.
