Cultivation: I have an equipment slot

"Senior Brother Dongfang."

How could you say such a thing?

"With Senior Brother Li Yan absent, are you trying to seize command?"

Upon hearing this, Song Qizhen's face turned ugly, and she questioned loudly.

He was somewhat tempted.

However, this does not mean that Dongfang Feneng has forcibly seized command.

Zhang Yan's command was appointed by the master of the Divine Weapon Pavilion.

no matter what.

Since Zhang Yan did not agree, he could not act on his own.

Dongfang Fu's words were clearly intended to sow discord among the disciples.

"Junior Brother Song."

"Senior Brother Dongfang, it's also for the benefit of the Divine Weapon Pavilion."

As the saying goes, "When a general is in the field, he may disobey the emperor's orders."

"Even the sect leader, knowing the current situation, would probably support Senior Brother Dongfang."

"While the young master is indeed exceptionally talented, his understanding of the situation may not be as clear as that of Senior Brother Dongfang."

Song Qizhen supported Zhang Yan, while others chose to support Dongfang Fu.

"Makes sense!"

Upon hearing this, all the disciples from the previous generation chose to stand on Dongfang Fu's side.

The previous generation of disciples numbered one hundred.

There were fewer than twenty people at the Dharma Aspect Realm, and the remaining eighty-odd people all supported Dongfang Fu.

After all, the Earth Core Fire Essence is a real and tangible benefit.

Moreover, they understand Dongfang Fu.

Dongfang Fu is sensible in his actions and often takes care of his junior brothers.

It can be said that among the previous generation of disciples, besides Li Yan, Dongfang Fu was the most prestigious.

"I said that."

"You are not allowed to leave this basin."

Faced with criticism, Zhang Yan remained the same as before.

"Fellow junior brothers and sisters."

"This Earth Core Fire Essence is in the ocean trench."

"Are you really willing to let this opportunity slip by?"

Dongfang Fu then laid out the nine jade bottles again, enticing them.

"This……"

The disciples were in a very difficult position.

On one side is Young Master Zhang Yan, and on the other side is Senior Brother Faxiang.

Moreover, the Earth Core Fire Marrow is practically within easy reach.

"Young Master."

"The Pavilion Master has only given you command authority."

"It doesn't mean that you alone can control everything."

"I choose to follow Senior Brother Dongfang. At worst, I'll accept the punishment when we return to the pavilion!"

A disciple from the previous generation, who was at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, gritted his teeth and resolutely landed beside Dongfang Fu.

"it is good!"

"Hahaha!"

"Junior brother, here's a bottle of Earth Core Fire Essence as a reward!"

Dongfang Fu burst into laughter, and generously took out a jade bottle, which he then presented to the disciple.

"Thank you, senior brother!"

The disciple was overjoyed.

Seeing this scene, many disciples felt a longing to do the same.

“I am also willing to accept the punishment and follow Senior Brother Dongfang Fu.”

The second disciple appeared, crossed the sea, and landed behind Dongfang Fu.

Soon the third, the fourth...

One disciple after another landed behind Dongfang Fu.

Later disciples received no reward.

But they all hoped for a large amount of fiery marrow from the Earth's core in the trench.

And they've made it all very clear.

They would rather be punished than not follow Dongfang Fu; Zhang Yan simply couldn't control them.

However, it is gratifying that none of the disciples of this generation have made any changes.

finally.

Those who chose to follow Dongfang Fu were precisely the disciples of the previous generation.

"The other junior brothers and sisters."

"Isn't anyone interested in joining?"

Dongfang Fu's gaze swept over the crowd, and he continued to instigate them.

"Senior Brother Dongfang..."

On Zhang Yan's side, some people still couldn't hold back.

Following the sound, they saw Zhou Yuan, who was at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.

hum!
A flying sword, as bright as a star, pierced through the seawater and landed in front of Zhou Yuan.

An extremely powerful aura emanated continuously, even cutting off the seawater.

Zhou Yuan's voice abruptly stopped.

This sword can kill him instantly!

"Eastern Fu".

"Today's events."

"I will report it truthfully."

"And the punishment for disobeying orders will be doubled!"

Zhang Yan stopped Zhou Yuan and said coldly.

This statement came out.

The disciples behind Dongfang Fu immediately turned extremely ugly.

The punishment for disobeying orders is extremely severe.

Even at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, it's not easy to feel good.

Moreover, it will double.

They were so captivated by Dongfang Fu that they almost forgot.

Zhang Yan is still the young master of the Divine Weapon Pavilion!

He has the power to temporarily change the law.

"Young Master."

"I just shouted it out, that's all."

Zhou Yuan smiled broadly, quickly withdrew his foot, and said ingratiatingly.

What a joke.

If you anger Zhang Yan, will he still have a place to stay in the Divine Weapon Pavilion?

"Fellow junior brothers and sisters."

"If it were us, we would have obtained a resource area."

"Even if I return to the Divine Weapon Pavilion, I can atone for my sins."

"The sect leader is a reasonable person. Since you're here, your senior brother won't let you be punished!"

Dongfang Fu's smile vanished, and he loudly assured him.

But Zhang Yan said these words.

The remaining disciples dared not speak rashly again.

"Everyone."

"Let's go!"

With a wave of his sleeve, Dongfang Fu put away the jade bottle and led his fellow disciples to the deep sea.

"Zhang Yan".

"I'd rather make a mistake than do nothing!"

In the dark sea, only Dongfang Fu's words remained.

The remaining three hundred people stood still.

Watching them leave.

Huang Yun'er and Xiao Wanyi stood beside Zhang Yan, looking at his profile, hesitant to speak.

Logically speaking, it's worth a try.

If necessary, I will definitely stay here.

"You all think so too."

Did I do something wrong?

Zhang Yan, with his hands behind his back, asked calmly.

"No."

Huang Yun'er and Xiao Wanyi lowered their heads, feeling that Zhang Yan seemed somewhat unfamiliar today.

"Ugh!"

"It's normal for you to have your own ideas."

"I was indeed being overly cautious."

"But everything I do is to ensure your safety."

"I can do nothing, but I must never make a mistake."

Zhang Yan sighed and said softly.

Huang Yun'er and Xiao Wanyi exchanged a glance and remained silent.

Given the current situation, even those of them who are close to Zhang Yan can't say much.

"Senior brother."

"I'm going back to seclusion."

Song Qizhen was the first to take his leave and return to the basin.

"Elder brother..."

The other disciples left one after another.

Finally, Huang Yun'er and Xiao Wanyi also went back to seclusion.

Above the basin.

Only Zhang Yan and Zhou Yuan, who was caught in a dilemma, remained.

"I knew it earlier."

"They won't show themselves anymore."

Looking at Zhang Yan's figure, Zhou Yuan felt a chill run down his spine and felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.

"Young Master, I..."

Zhou Yuan braced himself and tried to probe Zhang Yan's intentions.

"I'm giving you a task."

Zhang Yan glanced at him and suddenly spoke.

"Wh...what mission?"

Zhou Yuan's face turned pale, and his voice trembled.

Could it be.

Is Zhang Yan going to make things difficult for him now?

"Go and follow Dongfang Fu and the others."

Zhang Yan raised his hand and pointed to the deep sea.

"Young...Master."

"I was wrong, I will never do it again."

"Please spare me, I promise I'll cultivate honestly. If you tell me to go east, I'll never go west."

Zhou Yuan trembled and quickly assured him.

If he follows suit, wouldn't he become the only disciple of this generation who doesn't obey orders?
He can't afford double the punishment!
"That was not what I meant."

"I sent you to follow them."

"If the journey is peaceful, you will follow them into the trench to cultivate."

"If anything goes wrong, follow me from a distance and come back to tell me immediately."

Zhang Yan glanced at Zhou Yuan and explained the mission details.

"It's that simple?"

Zhou Yuan looked suspicious.

If Zhang Yan wasn't lying to him, this would be a huge benefit.

No matter what, he won't suffer a loss.

"I guarantee this as the young master of the pavilion."

"If it weren't for your high cultivation level, I wouldn't want you to go."

Zhang Yan said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yuan's doubts were largely dispelled.

Although he and Zhang Yan had a conflict before.

But he still trusted Zhang Yan's character.

"I've accepted the mission!"

Zhou Yuan gritted his teeth and agreed.

talking.

He then channeled his magical powers and headed towards the deep sea.

It's sizzling!

But he hadn't gone far when a terrifying bolt of lightning struck from behind, startling him into a cold sweat.

"too slow."

"We simply can't catch up like this."

Zhang Yan's voice followed.

really.

The lightning struck, but it transformed into a lightning shuttle, enveloping Zhou Yuan and increasing his speed by more than four times!
"They actually offered to see me off?"

Zhou Yuan stood inside the lightning shuttle, looking at Zhang Yan behind him, and muttered to himself.

He suddenly realized.

He could no longer understand Zhang Yan, his former rival.

"Resource-rich areas cannot be escaped."

"Wait until I break through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm."

"Then I can sweep through the Sea of ​​Demon Burial!"

Lightning flashed in Zhang Yan's eyes, and his magical power seemed to tangible, radiating a dazzling glow.

After leaving the Divine Weapon Pavilion.

He had already made up his mind that it would be best to bring all his fellow disciples back with him.

But he couldn't forcefully stop the changes that had just occurred.

So he changed his plans.

He must bring back at least three hundred disciples of this generation intact.

The current concession.

It's all for the final explosion.

Zhang Yan returned to the basin, with two demon souls at the Dharma Aspect Realm in his hands, and his powerful cultivation was steadily increasing.

……

In the deep sea.

They relied on Zhang Yan's help.

Zhou Yuan followed at a distance behind Dongfang Fu and his group.

Dongfang Fu and the others knew of his existence, but they did not wait for him.

Zhou Yuan did not pursue them.

And so, the group continued their journey toward the trench.

Because it wasn't just Dongfang Fu alone, their speed slowed down considerably.

It took three whole days to reach the top of the trench.

"right here."

Dongfang Fu stood above the trench and spoke to his fellow disciples.

At this moment, they were able to sense the rich spiritual energy and pure fire elemental power emanating from the trench.

"Senior Brother Dongfang is truly amazing. He followed that Spirit-Devouring Sea Leech and found such a treasure land."

"With this resource-rich area, our cultivation speed is much faster than in the previous basin."

"Once we return to the Divine Weapon Pavilion and report the news, it will surely be a great achievement!"

...

The disciples looked delighted and praised Dongfang Fu.

"Fellow disciples, follow me into the trench."

With a smug look on his face, Dongfang Fu took the lead and fell into the trench.

……

Deep in the ocean trench.

Beside a pit filled with fiery marrow from the earth's core, a man in a red robe opened his eyes.

"There's a human presence here!"

The man spoke, revealing his aura as a Dharma Aspect Realm expert.

"quick!"

"Conceal your presence first, then catch them off guard!"

Another young man quickly gave the order.

This person is none other than Chen Xiao, the leader of the eight phoenix chicks of Divine Phoenix Valley.

More than two days ago.

They discovered two Soul-Devouring Leeches at the early stage of the Dharma Aspect Realm.

Following the trail, we found this trench.

Most of the disciples of Divine Phoenix Valley are fire-element cultivators.

This trench is important to them.

It is a sacred place for cultivation.

So they occupied this trench.

However, there is another problem: the trench has attracted many Spirit Devouring Leeches at the Dharma Aspect Realm.

They found eight of them.

They came here and spent more than a day exploring the trench.

They are still dealing with those early-stage Dharma Aspect Realm Devouring Sea Leeches.

The exploration of the ditch is only halfway complete.

Five of the soul-devouring leeches remain in the trench.

Now they are preparing to deal with the remaining Soul-Devouring Leeches.

But then other forces appeared.

In the Sea of ​​Burial Demons, anyone who is not from the same sect is an enemy.

Therefore, the people from Divine Phoenix Valley immediately concealed their presence.

Once that force gets close, we can use our advantage to inflict a heavy blow!

"Fortunately."

"Let's go first."

"I just don't know which faction they belong to."

Chen Xiao concealed his thoughts and spoke in a low voice.

"Senior brother."

"As long as they're not from the Imperial Sword Sect."

"Having been ambushed by us, which force could possibly stand against us?"

Yue Ping leaned closer to him and said.

"Sword Control Sect".

"They are almost across the sea from us."

"How could it possibly be here?"

Chen Xiao sneered.

With the Sword Control Sect eliminated, the Divine Phoenix Valley has a huge advantage.

Now we just wait for the people from outside the trench to come in.

Within this trench, the power of fire element is abundant, amplifying their abilities and concealing their presence.

It was an absolutely perfect ambush site.

Wow! Wow!
While the people of Shenhuang Valley were waiting, several water lines suddenly appeared in the trench.

"Senior brother."

"Isn't that... a Soul-Devouring Leech?"

"The remaining five seem to have all appeared, and they're heading in the same direction as those people."

Yue Ping said in surprise.

"Isn't this a good thing?"

"These soul-devouring leeches are the vanguard."

"Once they've both been weakened, we can reap the benefits!"

A look of joy appeared in Chen Xiao's eyes.

They were also planning to kill the remaining five Devouring Spirit Leeches, all of which were at the early stage of the Dharma Aspect Realm.

Now, not only is it unnecessary.

These soul-devouring leeches can also become their final helpers.

At that time, they can take advantage of the chaos to launch a surprise attack, thus minimizing their losses.

After arriving at this trench...

It was a perfect storm of favorable circumstances, with everything in his favor.

boom!
A moment later, the aftershocks of the collision between the Dharma Aspect Realm beings were indeed heard above the trench.

The five-headed, early-stage Dharma Aspect Realm Devouring Sea Leech has already clashed with the newcomer.

"How could there be five Spirit-Devouring Leeches at the Dharma Aspect Realm level?"

A furious roar rang out.

The people from Divine Phoenix Valley almost burst out laughing.

"It's not just the Soul-Eating Leech."

"My Divine Phoenix Valley is still waiting for you."

Chen Xiao concealed his aura and waited quietly.

However, at this time, thanks to the special nature of this place.

The three Dharma Aspect Realm experts from Divine Phoenix Valley had already sensed the strength and identity of the newcomer through the aftershocks of the collision.

"Junior Brother Chen."

"It has already been identified."

"Among the newcomers, there is only one at the early stage of the Dharma Aspect Realm."

"And I happen to know him; he's Dongfang Fu from the Divine Weapon Pavilion."

The red-robed Dharma Image Realm transmitted a message to Chen Xiao.

"Divine Weapon Pavilion!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiao and Yue Ping exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with excitement.

It’s not a waste of time to break through the iron shoes.

The person who arrived was none other than the Divine Weapon Pavilion, which they had always kept in mind.

"Senior brother."

"Once we kill Zhang Yan, I want his Vermilion Bird Spirit Blood!"

Yue Ping's face flushed red, and he gritted his teeth as he spoke. (End of Chapter)
