Chapter 1240 Secrets of Tongtian Palace

"Is the Palace Master so old? Isn't she over 200 years old like that old witch Jin Lianhua, but the Palace Master looks much younger than Jin Lianhua, does Tongtian Palace have any secrets of immortality and beauty? "I asked curiously.

And Zhao Guizhen snorted coldly and said: "It is true, but this secret technique is only known to the masters of Tongtian Palace. Since the founder of Tongtian Palace, Master Tongtian, there have been only three palace masters. You Zhenren have lived for three or four hundred years."

"Live for so long? Could it be that some kind of sorcery was used?" I asked in amazement.

"I don't know, but I suspect it has something to do with your Guizimen. Changsheng, I remember that the hall masters of the Xuanzi generation in your Guizimen have lived for a long time, right? Normally, all the members of your Guizi clan live He's only 36 years old, but the ages of your hall masters are all 80, [-] or even older." Zhao Guizhen said.

"But our Ghost Clan's lifespan is extended because of the Heaven-Defying Fate-Changing Pill. It's not a sorcery. Moreover, only members of our Ghost Clan can take this Heaven-Defying Fate-Changing Pill. Outsiders will die suddenly if they take it." I explained.

But Zhao Guizhen said: "Tongtian Palace and Guizimen come from the same sect, so it is easy to improve the side effects of this heaven-defying life-changing pill. This alchemy is not a sorcery, but if you need to use living people's medicine to refine the elixir Life, this is magic..."

"Using living people to make alchemy? Second uncle, you... why do you say that? Have you found anything through your investigation?" I asked hastily.

"Although I don't know how your Ghost Clan refined the Heaven-Defying Fate Changing Pill, our Palace Master seems to be..."

"You mean the palace master uses living people to make alchemy?" I cried out in surprise.

"I'm not sure yet, Changsheng, did you find anything while tapping under the Tongtian Pavilion?" Zhao Guizhen asked back.

"I seem to feel a cloud of yin, and I feel some abnormal movement. I also felt some tremors on the ground above the Tongtian Pavilion. I suspect that there is a secret room in the Tongtian Pavilion!" I said.

Zhao Guizhen's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and he asked again in a deep voice: "Changsheng, do you know why I hate the Palace Master and Tongtian Palace so much?"

"Why...why?" I asked puzzled, I was curious before, even if the master of Tongtian Pavilion used living people to make alchemy, it wouldn't cause Zhao Guizhen so much resentment. Yan also just abolished his cultivation base according to the rules and expelled him from the school.

However, Zhao Guizhen's eyes gradually burst into anger, and he said with a sullen face: "This is because the master of my elder brother and I, that is, the previous Elder Baili of the Daoist School was killed by the Palace Master! My eldest brother and I were in a desperate situation, but it was Master who saved us, brought us up and taught us unique skills, and he treated us like a father."

"What? Was it killed by the palace lord? Why?" I asked in surprise.

"Brother and I both suspect that it was Master who found out about the fact that the Palace Master used living people to make alchemy, or discovered the conspiracy between the Palace Master and the Guizimen, and then he was killed." Zhao Guizhen said.

"Why is it involved with our Ghost Clan again? Then... what is this secret?" I asked curiously, but now I am extremely unwilling to hear someone speak ill of the Ghost Clan.

Zhao Guizhen shook his head slightly and said: "I haven't investigated this secret until now, I'm afraid the only way to find out is to sneak into Lord Tongtian's secret room."

"Then second uncle, why do you and my father think that the palace lord killed Elder Baili?" I asked.

Zhao Guizhen said: "Twenty years ago, Master suddenly disappeared from the world one day. The palace owner claimed that Master was eager for success and died after entering the nine-turn killing formation after the Despair Waterfall. But in fact, Master is a very cautious person. , he often taught us to practice gradually, and it is impossible to break into the waterfall of despair..."

"Wait, what's going on with this Despair Waterfall?" I suddenly interrupted him and asked curiously.

"It is rumored that successfully crossing the Despair Waterfall can change people's lives against the sky. I will tell you more about this rumor when I go back." Zhao Guizhen briefly explained, and then continued the topic just now: "Master has disappeared mysteriously. Afterwards, my elder brother and I investigated secretly for a long time, but unfortunately, we couldn't find the cause of Master's death or even the bones..."

"Then... haven't you found it until now?" I asked again.

Zhao Guizhen shook his head and said: "No, later on, with the help of the power of the Eye of Heaven, while helping that great man to do a fortune-telling, he also forgot the cause of Master's death..."
