After Lin Chen washed his body, he felt refreshed and indescribably comfortable.

After putting on his clothes, he was about to practice his sword skills when suddenly there was a slight sound of footsteps. The footsteps were very small and obviously a certain distance away from Lin Chen. The distance was far and the sound was small. If it were different

Other Tiangang realm warriors will definitely not be able to notice this.

But Lin Chen was different. At this moment, his soul power had greatly increased, and his senses were much sharper than before. He felt the footsteps as soon as they appeared.

Shaking his head slightly, a smile appeared on Lin Chen's lips. There is no doubt that the benefits of the surge in soul power will not only make Lin Chen's senses sharper, but his comprehension will also skyrocket.

Without thinking much, Lin Chen made a clang and pulled out the Cold Iron Sword.

But before Lin Chen could display his martial arts skills, the footsteps in his ears became louder and clearer. It was obvious that the person coming was quickly closing the distance with Lin Chen.

Seeing this situation, Lin Chen's heart moved, and a huge amount of soul power was immediately released, instantly covering a kilometer-wide area centered on him.

At the same time, all the scenes within a kilometer around him appeared in his mind.

Then he saw a middle-aged man wearing the attire of a deacon of the Tianji Sect walking quickly towards Lin Chen's courtyard. Seeing this middle-aged man, Lin Chen couldn't help but be startled.

"Deacon of the Tianji Sect?" Lin Chen's heart moved. The seventh elder had said before that the sect would send them a message soon. Presumably this Tianji Sect deacon was here to send Lin Chen the message.

Thinking of this, Lin Chen's face straightened up, and he was about to take back his soul power, when suddenly a voice came: "Who! Come out!"

Lin Chen was startled. This voice was made by the deacon of Tianji Sect.

The middle-aged man stopped in place, squinting his eyes and looking around, with a look of caution on his face.

"What a powerful sense." Lin Chen also narrowed his eyes, his soul power was vague, the middle-aged man could sense that someone was spying on him, and his senses were obviously extremely sensitive.

His heart moved, and all the soul power covering a kilometer around him was immediately withdrawn.

Obviously feeling this, the middle-aged man frowned and looked around with a somewhat confused look. After seeing that there was nothing unusual, he continued to move forward.

Sure enough, just as Lin Chen thought, this middle-aged man came to give Lin Chen orders.

The middle-aged man walked straight to the door of Lin Chen's courtyard, raised his hand and pressed it gently.

But before his hand fell, the courtyard door opened with a click. Lin Chen's figure appeared in front of the middle-aged man. When the latter saw this, he was slightly startled, and a strange color flashed in his eyes. He had just walked over.

, Lin Chen opened the door, as if aware of his arrival.

The situation was urgent now, and the middle-aged man didn't think much about it. He looked at Lin Chen and said: "Lin Chen, I am Wang Peng, the deacon of Tianji Sect. If the sect leader wants to ask something, you come with me."

Lin Chen remained calm and nodded: "Okay!"

Immediately, Lin Chen walked out of the courtyard, closed the courtyard door, and headed towards the Tianji Palace with Wang Peng.

at the same time.

In the small house where Ao Xin was staying, a middle-aged man wearing the uniform of a deacon of the Tianji Sect walked quickly outside Ao Xin's small courtyard...

As for Chen Feng, he was also taken to the Tianji Hall by the deacon of Tianji Sect at the same time.

Chen Feng was seriously injured. As soon as he returned to the sect, he was taken for treatment by the deacon of the Tianji Sect. One day later, his injuries were already stable, but it would take a long time to fully recover.

Tianji Sect, Tianji Hall.

This is a huge, extremely splendid palace. There are several Tianji Sect deacons guarding the entrance of the hall. Each deacon's cultivation is at the peak of Tiangang Realm and is extremely powerful.

When Lin Chen entered the main hall, Ao Xin and Chen Feng were already standing inside. Compared to Lin Chen, Ao Xin lived much closer to the Tianji Hall, so naturally he arrived at the Tianji Hall before Lin Chen, while Chen Feng was the one who arrived before

He was taken away for treatment by the deacon of Tianji Sect, so it was much faster.

When Ao Xin saw Lin Chen, she nodded slightly, a look of gratitude flashed across her face.

At that time, the four of them were chased by Ju Lingmang. If Lin Chen hadn't resisted desperately, all four of them would have died at the hands of Ju Lingmang. Yang Yifan is the best proof!

"Meet the sect master!"

"Meet the sect master!"

…

Lin Chen, Ao Xin and Chen Feng said respectfully.

The name of the leader of the Tianji Sect is Xue Yunlong. He looks to be about sixty years old, and his aura is extremely strong. Just sitting there, he exudes a majesty that makes people want to worship him.

"Yes." Xue Yunlong nodded lightly, a smile flashed across his face. Lin Chen and the other three encountered the giant spirit Mang in the Molian Mountains, and the seventh elder had already told him about it.

And you must know that being able to withstand the attack of the giant spirit mang with the cultivation level of the late Tiangang realm is already very remarkable. Anyone who can do this is definitely a genius! But compared to Ao Xin and Chen Feng, Lin Chen is just

At the early stage of Tiangang Realm cultivation, he was able to withstand most of Ju Lingmang's attacks. His strength and talent are definitely stronger than Ao Xin and Chen Feng.

"It's great that you have been able to fight the giant for so long!"

Xue Yunlong nodded and said: "Let me ask you, what is the mysterious black fog that appears in the Molian Mountains?"

Lin Chen and the three looked at each other, and Ao Xin said: "Back to the sect master, the specific situation is as follows. Before departure, we accepted the task of exploring the Molian Mountains, and then we went to the Molian Mountains. Then we stayed in the Molian Mountains

For more than ten days, we could often hear the sounds of monsters. When we found nothing else, we followed the sounds and found this mysterious black mist."

"Yes, that's right. At that time, we found the black mist, and there were at least a hundred demonic beasts surrounding it. These demonic beasts hesitated outside the black mist, not daring to go in. Finally, dozens of them rushed in. As a result, all but five low-level demonic beasts...

The giant spirit mang was outside, and the rest all died inside." Hearing this, Chen Feng nodded quickly and said.

After listening to Ao Xin and Chen Feng's words, many elders in the hall pondered for a moment, each with their brows furrowed, obviously not understanding what the mysterious black mist was.

Xue Yunlong's face was thoughtful. He pondered for a moment, turned his gaze to Lin Chen, and said in a deep voice: "Lin Chen, what do you think?"

Lin Chen was able to accept a four-star mission at the early stage of Tiangang Realm. His strength was obviously extremely powerful, and during the battle with the giant spirit mang, Lin Chen fought for the longest time. Perhaps Lin Chen discovered nothing from it.

must.

"Back to the sect master, Senior Sister Ao and Senior Brother Chen have basically finished talking about what happened." Lin Chen's expression remained unchanged. He paused and continued: "However, I think that this mysterious black mist has something to do with the beast that happened in Jinyang City before.

It’s about the tide.”

As soon as he finished speaking, many elders in the hall turned their heads and looked at Lin Chen.

Is the mysterious black mist related to the beast tide that occurred in Jinyang City? What is the connection between the two? Could it be that the beast tide that occurred in Jinyang City, among which the sixth-level elementary six-armed black demon ape also entered the black mist area, this

Only advanced mutation?

Ao Xin and Chen Feng also looked at Lin Chen with surprised expressions. Although they had seen the mysterious black mist, they knew nothing except that the monsters entered and there was a certain chance that they would advance.

"Lin Chen, go on!" Xue Yunlong's expression changed and he said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Sect Master."

Lin Chen bowed slightly and said: "When the beast tide broke out in Jinyang City, I, Senior Sister Ao and many other senior brothers and sisters had just attended the auction. When we were about to return to the sect, we encountered the beast tide and were not allowed to return.

Jinyang City. After that, monsters attacked the city. Among the monsters at that time was a low-level six-armed black demon ape..."

Listening to Lin Chen's words, Xue Yunlong and many elders all nodded. They all knew what Lin Chen said. The sixth-level low-level monster, the six-armed black demon ape, was extremely powerful. Jinyang City dispatched many powerful people in the true Tao realm.

, and then killed it.

Lin Chen continued: "The aura of the six-armed black ape is so powerful that even if we are tens of thousands of meters away from it, we still feel pressure. At that time, I carefully observed the six-armed black ape, and there was also a faint aura on its body.

The black mist is very similar to the black mist on the giant spirit mang I encountered in the Molian Mountains."

In other words, the six-armed black demon ape also entered the mysterious black mist, and then advanced to become a sixth-level low-level monster!

After listening to Lin Chen's analysis, many elders looked moved.

Sure enough!

Xue Yunlong frowned. If it was true as Lin Chen said, then the black fog that appeared in the Molian Mountains would definitely be a disaster.

Think about it, in just over ten days, a top-level fifth-level monster was created, and the monsters invaded by the black mist have all opened up very high intelligence. If this continues for a long time...

The monsters in the Molian Mountains will come out in force and attack human warriors crazily!

Xue Yunlong waved his hand slightly and said with a faint smile on his face: "You have done a good job! Lin Chen, Ao Xin, Chen Feng, you can go to the mission hall to receive the rewards. As for Yang Yifan, he will be given the highest pension of the sect."

"Yes, Sect Master."

"Thank you, Sect Master!"

…

The three of them bowed and, led by the Tianji Sect's deacons, walked towards the outside of the Tianji Sect's hall.

After Lin Chen and the others left, the old man sitting first on the left side of the hall stood up and said, "Sect Master, do you need to tell other sects about this mysterious black mist?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the first elder on the right shook his head and said: "No need at all. What exactly is this mysterious black mist? Let's find out first before telling you."

Everyone else nodded when they heard this, obviously agreeing with the second person's words.

The mysterious black mist can make monsters advance, so there must be some unknown secret in it. What it is exactly needs to be investigated.

But there is no doubt that the contents will be of great use to them!

Xue Yunlong shook his head slightly and said in a deep voice: "It is strictly confidential and this matter cannot be made public. It will not be too late until we find out clearly."

After a slight pause, he continued: "In addition, Elder Yang, you will lead the investigation tomorrow."

"Yes, Sect Master!"

As soon as Xue Yunlong finished speaking, the elder on the right immediately spoke.

No one knows what the mysterious black mist is, but since it can make monsters advance to two levels in a row in just over ten days, there must be something extremely secret and important in it.
