Chapter 179 -179

Chapter 179: Chapter179 Among the twelve inspectors of the Qitian Sect, there is a mark of the Young Master of Qitian in their divine consciousness. The mark can issue commands at any time and can also appear in the form of a phantom of the Young Master of Qitian. Even in a territory thousands of miles away, the mark in the divine consciousness cannot escape the control of the Young Master of Qitian. After Zhou Peng burst out with divine techniques and the law of aura, the Young Master of Qitian secretly made a decision. As for what the decision is, probably only he himself knows. The appearance of the mark also made Zi Yue, the city lord of Demon City, frown secretly. No matter how powerful the Young Master of Qitian is, he is only at the breaking space realm. How can he escape the perception of Zi Yue at the Qiankun realm? However, after thinking about it several times in her heart, Zi Yue still didn't tell Zhou Peng about the matter. Instead, she left a mark deep in Zhou Peng's divine consciousness. A mark that can save his life at a critical moment. After dealing with Wind, Cloud, Lightning, and Thunder, Zhou Peng embarked on his journey back. Along the way, he was also secretly thinking about why Gu Zang had run away. After thinking about it over and over again, he couldn't find an answer. Finally, in frustration, he didn't bother to think about it anymore. On the way, Hei Yan parted ways with them. Hei Yan understood in his heart that he was a disciple of the Liuyun Sect. Yao Qing was dead. The Liuyun Sect would definitely investigate. It wouldn't be long before it would be traced to him. In order not to cause any more trouble for Zhou Peng, he decided to go far away. Zhou Peng didn't try to persuade him to stay. He just told him to come to the Thousand Machines Sect to find him if there was anything. In just a few months. Hei Yan's personality had also recovered. Although the trauma in his heart was still there, he was now optimistic and upward. Zhou Peng was also secretly relieved. Nothing was said along the way. When Zhou Peng and Meng Fanyi returned to the Thousand Machines Sect and appeared in the Merit Hall of the inner sect, it immediately caused a stir. On the black stone, the information about the task of searching for the "Nether Sea Strange Fire" disappeared. The Merit Hall was in an uproar. "Someone actually completed it." "Who is it? This is a task with a danger coefficient ranking in the top three." "Could it be a disciple at the reincarnation realm who completed it?" "No. In the past few months, only one person has accepted this task." "Who?" Almost half of the disciples in the Merit Hall were pricking up their ears. They wanted to know who was so powerful. Who could actually complete such a difficult task? This was a task personally issued by Palace Lord Lie Yang. If it was really completed, there would definitely be many benefits. Perhaps even a personal summons from Palace Lord Lie Yang. If one became a disciple of the Lie Yang Palace, then one would definitely be prosperous in the future. Among the eight palaces of the Thousand Machines Sect, in terms of strength, the Lie Yang Palace is the weakest one. The strength of Palace Lord Shen Yan is also the weakest among the eight palace lords. She is only at the first level of breaking space and hasn't broken through in nearly two hundred years. But if there is a real fight. Among the eight palace lords, it is estimated that only Palace Lord Jian Wang Wu Yue of the Nanyang Palace can defeat her. But in terms of influence, the Lie Yang Palace is definitely the greatest. Artificers. There are not many in the entire Tianyuan Continent. Master artificers are even more scarce. Almost half of the disciples in the Thousand Machines Sect have weapons made by the Lie Yang Palace. And the weapons personally crafted by Palace Lord Shen Yan of the Lie Yang Palace contain extremely astonishing power. Anything made by her is definitely extraordinary. Some people outside jokingly say that they would rather fight Wu Yue at the peak of the breaking space realm than fight Shen Yan at the first level of breaking space. Just using magic treasures can crush you to death. In the Thousand Machines Sect, the Lie Yang Palace has the greatest influence. It is also the most difficult to enter. Many people try every means to enter the Lie Yang Palace but always fail. The selection of disciples by the Lie Yang Palace is extremely strict. Each time, it is personally selected by Shen Yan. The people she chooses. Even if they are the people chosen by the sect master, they must give way. One can see how great the influence is? "It's that kid who was at the sixth level of refining gang last time. What's his name?" "Zhou Peng?" "Yes, it's him. Zhou Peng who was almost killed by Wang Ye." "It was him who completed the task of the Nether Sea Strange Fire? Can someone at the sixth level of refining gang complete it? I don't believe it even if I'm beaten to death..." ... There was a lot of noise in the Merit Hall. But Zhou Peng and Meng Fanyi were drinking good tea that only inner sect elders could drink on the top floor of the Merit Hall. Leisurely and comfortable yet secretly nervous. "Boss, this time we're really in the limelight." Meng Fanyi grinned excitedly. Just now as they walked all the way, all the disciples cast envious glances. That feeling was so great. Meng Fanyi returned fully loaded from the trip to the Nether Sea. Not only did he break through to the virtual realm but also obtained the immortal-level cultivation technique, the sword technique of the Liuyun Sect. Comprehended the sword intent and found the sword path that truly belonged to him. All this was thanks to Zhou Peng. In his heart, as long as he followed Zhou Peng, good luck would keep coming. Zhou Peng put down his teacup and gave a faint smile. Said, "Being famous is not always a good thing." According to his understanding, the forces within the Thousand Machines Sect are also intertwined. Coupled with the mysterious disappearance of the previous sect master, Zang Tianji. Long Xiaotian took the opportunity to ascend to the position, causing dissatisfaction from all sides. Although Long Xiaotian becoming the sect master was a unanimous decision of the supreme elders, there are still some people who have objections. Especially the former direct forces of Zang Tianji. So currently, the forces within the Thousand Machines Sect are very complex. On the surface, it is calm. But secretly, there are undercurrents. For Zhou Peng, the more chaotic it is, the better. The more chaotic it is, the greater his chances are. However, being famous at this time is indeed a bit bad. Completing a task with a danger coefficient in the top three at the sixth level of refining gang. Whether it's due to good luck or outstanding strength, it will definitely attract attention from all sides. Zhou Peng just wants to keep a low profile. "Boss, who do you think Elder Xiao asked us to wait for here? Could it be Palace Lord Lie Yang?" Meng Fanyi was shocked. Slightly trembled. Then he looked at Zhou Peng. His brows were filled with joy. Said, "Boss, if it's really to see Palace Lord Lie Yang, you must seize the opportunity. I heard that there are everywhere immortal-level weapons in the Lie Yang Palace. The disciples of the Lie Yang Palace are too lazy to pick them up. Later, if you ask to enter the Lie Yang Palace, I believe the palace lord will agree." "After all, this is the Nether Sea Strange Fire. A strange fire from outside the Tianyuan Continent. It's definitely not that simple." Zhou Peng smiled. Didn't answer. The ranking competition for the top one hundred disciples is coming soon. He'd better find a backer before that. If possible, the Lie Yang Palace is a good choice. As long as Palace Lord Lie Yang comes forward, he believes that the Young Master of Qitian wouldn't dare to do anything to him. Let alone Yang Han. But everything is unknown. He hasn't met Palace Lord Lie Yang yet. He can't judge what kind of person she is at all. Rumors say that she is a very kind person. But how exactly is she? Only he can verify it himself. Xiao Feng smiled with narrowed eyes. Walked out. Said, "Sorry to keep you waiting." Zhou Peng immediately got up and saluted. Gave a faint smile. Last time in the Merit Hall when he encountered Wang Ye. If it wasn't for his help, he might have already died under Wang Ye's palm. So, Zhou Peng was grateful to Xiao Feng and showed extra respect. Xiao Feng took a look at Zhou Peng. His eyes moved. He felt good about this young fellow Zhou Peng in his heart. At least he wouldn't be arrogant and conceited because he completed a super task. Looking down on others. Although he is an elder of the Merit Hall of the inner sect, he doesn't have much real power. Many favored disciples don't give him face. That day in the Merit Hall, it was also because he couldn't stand Wang Ye's arrogance that he helped. Now it seems that he didn't save the wrong person. "You wait a little longer. Palace Lord Lie Yang will be here soon." Xiao Feng said with a faint smile. Looking at Zhou Peng. Secretly thinking, "There are really not many things that can attract the attention of Palace Lord Lie Yang." "Boss, I said Palace Lord Lie Yang would come in person. Haha..." Meng Fanyi was so excited that he almost jumped up. As soon as the words fell, there was suddenly one more person in the room. A woman. Looking only in her thirties. Wearing simple clothes. She seemed very approachable without any airs. Xiao Feng immediately got up and respectfully said, "Greet Palace Lord." Immediately. Meng Fanyi and Zhou Peng also got up at the same time. Bowed and said, "Greet Palace Lord." "There are no outsiders here. Don't be so formal." The woman gently lifted Xiao Feng's hand. Said faintly. Xiao Feng was extremely flattered. Stepped aside. Zhou Peng was secretly shocked. Among the eight palaces of the Thousand Machines Sect, how powerful are they? As the number one leader, there is not even a bit of airs. How is that possible? Shen Yan had an ordinary appearance. Her aura was calm. Her momentum was plain and had no aggression. Her eyes always had a kind look. Gentle and elegant. There was no sign of a superior person at all. "No desires. A heart like still water?" Zhou Peng thought secretly. Could there really be such a person in the world? "Elder Xiao, you can leave first." Shen Yan said softly. Her words were full of gentleness. Without any commanding tone. Xiao Feng immediately saluted and left the room. Shen Yan walked up to Zhou Peng. Said, "Did you complete the task?" Zhou Peng was extremely respectful. Then he took out a prepared space ring and handed it up. Said, "There are ten drops of Nether Sea Strange Fire inside. I hope it can help you refine a peerless divine weapon." Shen Yan's hand trembled slightly. She showed extreme calmness. Took the space ring. Her eyes widened. Controlled it with her consciousness. Then her brows slightly raised. Showing a barely noticeable joy. Said calmly, "Yes. It's the Nether Sea Strange Fire." The subtle movement didn't escape Zhou Peng's eyes. Out of inner precaution, Zhou Peng didn't trust anyone. Especially when it came to some people in the Thousand Machines Sect, his defensive mentality was even stronger. For him, every step in the Thousand Machines Sect must not be wrong. If he took a wrong step. Perhaps all his efforts over the years would be in vain. The treasure left by Zang Tianji would be destroyed. You should know that there are treasures collected by Zang Tianji throughout his life inside. The quantity is astonishingly large. And according to Zhou Peng's observations over the years, he found that among the piles of treasures, there were also one or two divine weapons. Divine weapons. Something even great sages pursue. Its allure is no less than huge amounts of RMB in the previous life. For the divine weapons, Zhou Peng must be steady and solid. "I can fulfill one of your wishes. As long as it's within my power, I can help you achieve it." Shen Yan was very satisfied. Looking at Zhou Peng faintly. Meng Fanyi was excited. His body almost trembled. He knew that Palace Lord Lie Yang could refine semi-divine weapons. If he chose a weapon. Even someone at the peak of the virtual realm wouldn't be his opponent. Zhou Peng also knew these things. But choosing a magic treasure currently wasn't of much help to him. Seeing Zhou Peng hesitating, Shen Yan gave a faint smile. Said, "There are only a few days left until the ranking competition for the top one hundred disciples. Getting a good weapon at this time will be very helpful to you. If I were you, I would choose a good weapon." Then she said, "Even if you choose a semi-divine weapon, I can fulfill your wish." "Semi-divine level." Meng Fanyi exclaimed excitedly. His heart was in his throat. He wished he could answer for Zhou Peng. He kept winking at Zhou Peng. He was even more anxious than Zhou Peng. "Can I follow you? I want to become a great artificer master like you." Zhou Peng bowed and saluted. Bowed his head extremely respectfully. His tone was extremely sincere. Even Shen Yan who had seen many people probably couldn't see through his thoughts. The reason for bowing his head was to avoid Shen Yan's eyes. Although Zhou Peng believed that he had disguised himself well. But for the sake of insurance, he was fully prepared. No matter how well a person hides. The eyes cannot be hidden. "Are you crazy?" Meng Fanyi whispered urgently. "That's a semi-divine weapon. Even inner sect elders can't possess such a magic treasure. But you refused." This request from Zhou Peng really surprised Shen Yan. She didn't expect that Zhou Peng would actually ask to follow her and learn the art of artificing. On the way here, she had a little understanding of Zhou Peng. Offended the Young Master of Qitian who was in the limelight. Now thinking of Zhou Peng's action, she gave a faint smile. Said, "Are you looking for a backer?" Zhou Peng spoke frankly. "Do you think I will agree to you?" Shen Yan asked. Zhou Peng replied, "Yes." "Why are you so sure?" Shen Yan was a little curious. Just an inner sect disciple at the third level of the virtual realm. What makes him so confident? "You are clearer than me about the degree of danger of the Nether Sea Strange Fire task. A task that you couldn't complete. I completed it. I believe that you will need me in the future. And I am willing to serve you in exchange for your protection." Zhou Peng said frankly again. He believed that before Shen Yan issued this task, she had entered the Nether Sea territory. But she just couldn't complete it. Shen Yan was stunned. Gave a faint smile. Said, "You are very smart. Sometimes being too smart is not good. But I like smart people. I agree to you." "Thank you, Palace Lord." Zhou Peng's brows were filled with joy. Except for the first time when he concealed his false thoughts inside. Zhou Peng didn't deliberately hide anymore. He had a feeling that Shen Yan was very extraordinary. At least in terms of observation, she was not weaker than him. Being too clever on one's own will instead arouse. Then Shen Yan took out a fiery red token. Said, "From now on, you are a person of the Lie Yang Palace. As long as you are within the Thousand Machines Sect, the Young Master of Qitian wouldn't dare to do anything to you. Of course, outside the Thousand Machines Sect, I can't guarantee." Zhou Peng took the fiery red token. Immediately, a warm current came from his palm. It was like holding a ball of fire. It was warm and very comfortable. "Thank you, Master." Shen Yan smiled. Said, "From now on, the Lie Yang Sect is your home. Everything about you is protected by the Lie Yang Palace. You deal with some trivial matters. Then take the Flame Token and go to the Lie Yang Palace." Zhou Peng was extremely respectful. After Shen Yan finished speaking, her body turned into a fiery red stream of light and disappeared. "Boss, that's a semi-divine weapon." Meng Fanyi was still extremely regretful about Zhou Peng's choice just now. It was difficult to become a disciple of the Lie Yang Palace. But no matter how difficult it was, it wasn't as useful as getting a semi-divine magic treasure. Among the hundreds of thousands of disciples in the Thousand Machines Sect, how many people can possess semi-divine magic treasures? Very few. But Zhou Peng actually refused. Meng Fanyi was extremely distressed. "Don't worry. In the future, I will refine one for you." Zhou Peng gave a faint smile. Just a semi-divine weapon. As long as I can stand firm. Reach the breaking space realm. The Young Master of Qitian can't do anything to me. So what if it's a semi-divine weapon? What he needs now is not a divine weapon. But to stabilize his position and find a backer. Only when life is guaranteed can one move the world!!.
