The Fourth Financial Crisis

Tianshu City suffered a beast disaster and was in ruins waiting to be revitalized.

Fang Jiancai and Chen Ming were both the highest-level leaders in the cultivation world in Tianshu City, and they both had endless matters to deal with. After exchanging a few polite words, Fang Jiancai took the initiative to stand up and leave.

After there were no outsiders in the guest room, Chen Ming did not rush to get down to business. Instead, he aimed his face slightly, and saw that his face, which originally looked like a young man, had aged at a speed visible to the naked eye, and gradually turned into a beard-haired man. A kind old man who is all white.

As the head of the Mountain Eagle Sect, Chen Ming actually used the disguise spell to change his appearance in his own base camp!

After checking his new skin in the mirror and confirming that there were no flaws, the strongest Golden Core monk in the southeastern coastal area of ​​Zhongzhou had a faint sneer on his lips.

His figure blurred and disappeared instantly.

A moment later, the newly transformed leader of the Mountain Eagle Sect appeared in front of a small, lonely courtyard in the back mountain of the Mountain Eagle Sect. Because he used a very superb illusion of disguise, none of the passing disciples of the Mountain Eagle Sect could see him. Recognize this sect leader.

The simple courtyard like a thatched cottage in front of Chen Ming belonged to an ordinary Qi Refining Dzogchen disciple of the Mountain Eagle Sect, his name was Ye Chen.

This person has been a member of the Shanying Sect for less than ten years, but now he has reached the state of Qi Refining Perfection. In the Shanying Sect, a third-rate cultivation sect in Zhongzhou, he is definitely a rare cultivation genius.

Under normal circumstances, this kind of genius would definitely become famous.

However, this is not the case.

Since joining the Mountain Eagle Sect, this Ye Chen has been living in seclusion all year round. He rarely interacts with even his fellow disciples. It can be said that he does not even have a single familiar friend. The other disciples of the Mountain Eagle Sect only knew that he was an orphan without a father or a mother, and that he had an old adoptive father, but no other information was known.

You know, the Mountain Eagle Sect is not a nursing home.

Most disciples of the Mountain Eagle Sect also need to work for the sect in order to earn corresponding training resources.

Just for the Qi Gathering Powder needed to break through to the middle stage of Qi refining, the market price for one course of treatment is already as high as 3,200 yuan of spiritual stone coins. This is definitely not something that a grassroots cultivator with no background can afford easily, like Ye Chen, who has no cultivation family background. , but a monk who is able to break through in silence, no matter how reclusive he usually is, will inevitably arouse suspicion.

The most obvious question is:

Where does the money you usually use for cultivation come from?

The unknown source of huge wealth is not only a sensitive issue on Earth, but also attracts attention in the Kyushu cultivation world.

However, the weird thing is here. Anyone who tries to find out Ye Chen's origins will find nothing in the end.

Even if you check all the legal files of the Shanying Sect, you can't find out where Ye Chen was born or how he became a disciple of the Shanying Sect. It's as if Ye Chen emerged from the cracks in the stone. Even if It was during the foundation building period that the elders kept it secret.

Over time, ordinary Mountain Eagle Sect disciples lose their curiosity. After all, no matter how promising this person is, he never interacts with others and is of no use to himself!

It was obviously not the first time that Chen Ming came here.

He just touched the courtyard door lightly, and an extremely powerful wave of spiritual energy roared out from the courtyard, which must have triggered some special restriction. However, Chen Ming seemed to have expected this. He immediately formed a seal with his right hand and laid a powerful magic barrier around the courtyard.

The fluctuations of spiritual energy rushing out of the courtyard seemed to hit an invisible wall, causing ripples in the air, but they were not exposed at all.

Although the new restrictions imposed by Chen Ming are as stable as Mount Tai, the original restrictions in the courtyard have been completely destroyed.

As the whistling spiritual energy gradually calmed down, waves of low and hoarse roars came from the side room in the simple courtyard.

Chen Ming was not in a hurry to enter the room, but waited for the roar to gradually stop, then opened the door to the wing and walked in. In the wing, there was a young man with black hair and a resolute look and clear eyes, who was lying on the ground. The meditating futon was shaking in pain.

Seeing the young man's pain and struggle, Chen Ming did not say anything. Just stood aside quietly.

After the young man's expression calmed down slightly, Chen Ming said calmly: "Ye Chen, how are you doing these days?"

Ye Chen stood up with difficulty, bowed and saluted and said, "It doesn't matter whether it's good or bad. Thanks to Master, my progress in cultivation has gone smoothly!"

Chen Ming stretched out his right hand, and a mysterious golden whirlpool appeared in his palm: "This time I went to the headquarters of the Wuliang Sword Sect and found a brand new metallic treasure for you. With the help of this treasure, I believe your Gengjin transformation The physical skills can be improved to a higher level!"

"Thank you Master for your cultivation!"

The conversation between the two was very brief, but if it was accidentally spread, it would probably shock the entire Mountain Eagle Sect.

If Ye Chen was just Chen Ming's apprentice, this would be nothing.

What's more important is that Ye Chen actually practices a well-known forbidden technique in the Kyushu cultivation world - Gengjin Body Transformation Technique!

The reason why the Gengjin Body Transformation Technique is called a forbidden technique is because it is so insane that it is not mad at others, but mad at yourself. It requires cultivators of metallic spiritual roots to take the initiative to transform various metallic innate treasures into their bodies, forcibly improving their spiritual root qualifications, and achieving the effect of a counterattack against the waste of cultivation.

Innate treasures are crystals that can only be formed after being soaked in the power of earth veins for thousands of years. How painful it is to convert the Geng metal energy that the innate treasures have absorbed for thousands of years into the body...

To put it bluntly, that kind of pain is equivalent to ordinary people driving steel nails into their bodies. More than 80% of cultivators will even die of pain!

But if you pay, you will be rewarded. The Gengjin Body Transformation Technique is not only powerful, but also cannot be classified into any level of "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang" exercises, because it can change fate and improve cultivation qualifications, and can even make inferior products The spiritual root qualifications have reached a level comparable to that of the best spiritual root monks, exceeding the limits of all conventional cultivation techniques.

"call……"

After taking a long breath, Ye Chen nodded silently and carefully took the golden cyclone from Chen Ming's hand.

In the palm of his hand, the sharp aura emanating from the golden cyclone caused the skin of his palm to ache even through the body-protecting aura: "Next... I will activate the Gengjin Body Transformation Technique to directly transform it into the body. in vivo?"

"That's right, you should still practice your skills according to the old rules. If there is any danger, I will personally protect you!"

Although Chen Ming's tone remained calm, his brows frowned slightly subconsciously.

Chen Ming's strange expression was not so much the Master's sympathy for his disciples, but rather a bit like the physical discomfort that some people with sensitive hearing would instinctively feel when hearing someone scratch their fingernails across a blackboard.

After all, the pain caused by the Gengjin Body Transformation Technique is too cruel and inhumane, no matter how hard the cultivator's body is. But the inside of the body is always the most vulnerable part. Within the human body, let alone an innate treasure with destructive power. Just sneaking into something. It can make a strong person unable to survive or die.

Even though Chen Ming had protected Ye Chen many times, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

As a bystander, Chen Ming would still feel uncomfortable. As an actual practitioner of the Gengjin Body Transformation Technique, one can only imagine the severe pain Ye Chen is about to endure.
