Godly Dragon Guard

Outside the main hall of the alliance headquarters, there were many patrolling monks from the alliance walking back and forth, and some spiritual beasts and birds were hovering in the sky, which was heavily guarded.

Shen Lang lowered his escape light and arrived outside the main hall.

"Is this senior here to participate in the casual cultivator conference? Please show your voucher to enter." The two foundation-building monks guarding the door stopped Shen Lang and said respectfully.

Shen Lang took out a jade plaque and showed it to the two gatekeeper monks.

The jade card is the certificate for obtaining a place in the arena.

"Excuse me, senior, please come in!" The two gatekeeper monks glanced at the jade plaque with their spiritual consciousness, bent down and bowed, then turned sideways and gave way to the palace door.

Shen Lang strode towards the main hall.

There is a white light curtain on the door of the hall, which is a kind of sound insulation and a restriction to prevent the detection of spiritual consciousness. The method is quite clever, but it is not offensive.

Walking into the main hall, the interior is very empty, with about a thousand square meters of space.

The interior furnishings are very simple. Apart from the carpet on the floor, there is only a purple jade bench directly above the main hall.

There were no tables or chairs around, everyone was standing.

There are already more than a dozen people in the main hall, all of them are casual cultivators in the alchemy stage, basically all of them are in the middle or late stage of alchemy.

As soon as Shen Lang walked in, more than a dozen sharp eyes in the hall swept over him.

Seeing that Shen Lang was only at the early stage of pill formation, the casual cultivators couldn't help showing surprise on their faces.

You must know that those who emerge from the arena battle are basically loose cultivators with strong combat power in the middle and late stages of pill formation. It is quite rare for a monk in the early stage of pill formation to get a place in the arena.

The casual cultivators were only surprised for a moment, and quickly looked away.

Shen Lang's expression did not move. There was still an hour before the meeting started, so he stood silently waiting.

Half an hour passed, and a large number of casual cultivators entered the hall one after another. Everyone basically remained silent, and the hall was surprisingly quiet.

Not long after, another person walked in outside the gate, this time it was a female nun.

This female nun wears a veil and has long hair hanging down her shoulders. She has a tall figure, tall breasts, a plain waist, and slender legs.

She was wearing a gorgeous red dress, but her clothes were more conservative. Only her neck showed white skin, with icy muscles and jade bones. Unfortunately, his face was covered by a veil and his appearance could not be seen clearly.

The woman in the red dress strode into the hall, exuding a cold and cold temperament, giving people the feeling that strangers were not allowed to enter.

"Hua Ziling?"

Shen Lang glanced at the woman in the red dress and couldn't help being surprised.

As if aware of Shen Lang's gaze, the woman in the red dress also looked towards him. She was startled for a moment, then returned to normal and stood in the corner aside.

Shen Lang immediately walked towards Hua Ziling and said through a message: "Hua Ziling, am I right? Is it really you?"

"Fellow Taoist, your approach to pick up a conversation is a bit too vulgar. This little girl doesn't know you." The woman in the red dress replied via voice transmission, with a hint of resentment in her beautiful eyes hidden under the veil.

"Okay, stop pretending, I know it's you. You can hide it from others, but you can't hide it from me." Shen Lang said seriously.

"Haha, my surname is Shen. I haven't seen each other for more than ten years. I thought you had forgotten me. This beauty is no worse than you now, so don't get too close to me!" Hua Ziling raised her eyebrows, looking slightly satisfied. said.

Shen Lang was a little speechless. They hadn't seen each other for more than ten years. This girl actually practiced from the early stage of nirvana to the early stage of pill formation. It was really unbelievable.

It turns out that I am not the only one who is awesome.

"Yes, yes, you are amazing. We are friends after all, so we don't have to be so heartless, right?" Shen Lang touched his nose.

"Huh!" Hua Ziling snorted softly and glanced around the hall.

I found that many casual cultivators were looking towards me and Shen Lang, and they probably knew that the two were communicating through sound transmission. The sound transmission between monks is not airtight and can be eavesdropped using magic.

Hua Ziling took out two emerald green beads from the storage ring, put one on his neck, threw the other to Shen Lang, and said through the message: "This is the spiritual sound bead, a magic weapon for communication. . You tie this bead around your neck, and the two of us communicate through sound transmission, so outsiders can’t overhear.”

"good!"

Shen Lang immediately put the beads around his neck and injected spiritual power into it. He instantly felt a connection between himself and Hua Ziling.

"Hua Ziling, are you also interested in Penglai Mountain?" Shen Lang asked curiously.

"Only you are allowed to be interested, but I can't be interested?" Hua Ziling raised her eyebrows and then hummed: "You want to enter Penglai Mountain, isn't it also for the treasure?"

Shen Lang frowned and said: "The treasure is secondary, I want to find something. Hua Ziling, let me remind you first, the alliance is definitely not so kind. There will probably be a certain price or danger for us to enter Penglai Mountain."

"Why do you think so?" Hua Ziling frowned.

"I don't know the specific situation yet. Anyway, I always feel that there is a conspiracy inside. It just so happens that we can act together this time and be careful." Shen Lang said in a deep voice.

"Hmph, it seems like no one is willing to follow you." Hua Ziling curled her lips.

Saying this, Hua Ziling actually seemed to be in a good mood.

The two chatted without a word, chatting a little about each other's experiences, and the time passed quickly.

There were more and more monks in the hall, and in half an hour, all the one hundred casual cultivators had arrived.

Not long after, an old man walked out of the main hall, dressed in brocade clothes and robes, with a sallow complexion and sharp eyes. The aura is huge, giving people a feeling that they cannot help but look at.

"Nascent Soul Stage Monk!" Shen Lang's heart trembled. The spiritual pressure on the approaching old man was astonishing. Just one look could make people tremble with fear.

The casual cultivators in the main hall consciously moved out of the way, and the old man in golden clothes walked to the seat directly in front of the main hall and sat down.

"My Taoist name is Lianshan, and I am the elder of Xinggong. I will preside over today's casual cultivator meeting!" the old man said calmly.

The voice was not loud, but it carried a vague coercion that no one could question.

Shen Lang, the name of Master Lian Shan, has also been heard, and he is indeed an early Yuanying monk from Xing Palace.

There was silence in the main hall, and Master Lian Shan spoke again: "No more nonsense, this conference is to explain to you and other casual cultivators about entering Penglai Mountain."

As soon as these words came out, there was a commotion in the hall.

"This time, Penglai Mountain is divided into east and west sides. Alliance monks and demon cultivators enter from the east, and you and other loose cultivators enter from the west. This is the jade slip map of the west route. Please pick it up."

After saying that, Master Lianshan waved his sleeves, and hundreds of jade slips flew out from his sleeves, flying like raindrops towards San Xiu around the hall.

Everyone immediately reached out and took the jade slip.

Shen Lang checked the contents of the jade slip, and it turned out to be a map, a map to the west of Penglai Mountain!

There is only a simple route marked on the map, and the rest is blank.

"The hundreds of casual cultivators entering from the west will be led by me. After entering Penglai Mountain, they will follow the route on this map to a large altar. There is a formation around the altar. The alliance requires you, the hundreds of casual cultivators, to work together to open up and activate that place. Formation. After the formation is activated, you will be able to move freely in Penglai Mountain without any restrictions." Master Lian Shan said calmly.

The alliance was able to obtain the map of Penglai Mountain, which surprised Shen Lang.

This is not the point. The point is that the alliance allowed hundreds of casual cultivators to enter Penglai Mountain just to activate a large formation in the mountain!

If that's the case, isn't it too simple?

Shen Lang always felt a little weird. (To be continued)
