Chapter 341 Secretly Promoted
On the tenth day when Xu Xian was pursuing his head in studying control-type Taoism, he found that he had entered a bottleneck period again.
He has learned a lot of control-type Taoism, and he has the understanding of the "control" Taoism. It is very easy to get started with some simple Taoisms, and then he can reach the master level through experience.
However, the actual effect of these control-type Taoist techniques that Xu Xian learned is not much stronger than that of "Kui Shui Cold Thunder", and is not even stronger than pure soul locking.
Xu Xian understood that this is because the level of this kind of Taoist technique itself is not enough, and it can show such power, which is entirely due to the blessing of his own Tao.
These simple Taoist techniques did not bring much benefit to Xu Xian. At most, they had a deeper understanding of "control", but they basically belonged to the basic part.
After a period of practice, Xu Xian’s Great Dao scale did not improve much.
"As a matter of fact, it is still necessary to have a deeper understanding of the Tao... These simple Taoist techniques are difficult to play a role in a more in-depth understanding of the Tao."
Xu Xian was mentally prepared, and he already had the goal of practicing Taoism, but he just used these to lay a solid foundation first.
After all, even a "Nine-Turn Yin-Yang Divine Thunder" has to be polished for a long time. Xu Xian didn't think that one would require high merits to be exchanged. How easy it would be to practice Taoism that is close to the level of the soul.
This is destined to be a huge project.
Xu Xian was not in a hurry. Anyway, he had some time left before his journey to Xuanzong Realm, so he could slowly get started and stay at home to practice.
However, on this day, the spiritual servant came to report to him that a strange guest was visiting.
The other party did not tell him the name, but only said that he was Xu Xian's neighbor.
Xu Xian couldn't help but be stunned, and quickly thought about the neighbors who might come to visit. If Lian Yuan and the other two were there, there was no need to make it so complicated, just report it to a famous name.
So he soon thought of another person, Hu Yuerong, a tycoon alchemist who is cautious by nature.
...
A moment later, in the living room of Xu Xian's house, Xu Xian sat opposite Hu Yuerong, who had taken off her hood to reveal her true face.
Xu Xian looked at the other party with some curiosity. He was not very familiar with Hu Yuerong. Except for having a contact when he first came to the Red Maple Realm, he rarely had any contact since then.
Xu Xian has always been an extremely realistic person. When he can't use the other person, he never thinks about contacting his relationship unless the other person comes to him, just like now.
But if we really want to talk about it, Hu Yuerong has helped Xu Xian quite a lot. It was not only because of "borrowing" money, but also because of his cooperation with Hu Yuerong that Xu Xian learned about the Xiaoshan Tree World.
The experience in the Xiaoshan Tree World allowed Xu Xian to quickly complete his original accumulation, which was also the basis for his real leap period of strength.
So Xu Xian has a good impression of Hu Yuerong. If the other party comes to ask for help for something, Xu Xian doesn't mind helping him - anyway, this person is very rich.
But Xu Xian was wrong. Hu Yuerong did not simply find help when she encountered difficulties, but because of a somewhat complicated reason.
"A big thing happened in the Taoist sect recently. Do you know?" Hu Yuerong thought for a while and opened with this sentence.
"A big deal?" Xu Xian frowned for no clarity. He had not heard anything, and the public inside the Taoist sect was also quite calm.
Of course, Xu Xian understood that major events may not necessarily make everyone known. Many events that have a profound impact on the future begin, develop and end quietly.
Seeing that he didn't know and had no intention of keeping him in hiding, Hu Yuerong took the initiative to say, "Just two days ago, one was promoted."
She said it a little obscurely, but Xu Xian immediately understood what she meant... There was a Yuanshen True Lord who had just completed the promotion!
This can indeed be called a earth-shaking event. There are only a few dozen souls in the Taoist sect. Each extra one is equivalent to a huge improvement in strategic power.
However, the Taoist sect obviously did not announce the news immediately, which seemed unusual.
At this important time when the two worlds are fighting, such news can undoubtedly greatly boost the morale of the front line, and there seems to be no need to hide it.
After all, it is still early to fight with the fourth-level strongman. It seems that it is too long to hide his trump card, and news may be leaked during this period.
It was as if Hu Yuerong in front of her knew this, and obviously it wouldn't be the reason.
In this way, Xu Xian could only guess that the soul was unwilling to speak out, or that it was some other secret and unknowable reason.
Sure enough, Hu Yuerong continued: "This soul's situation is quite special. He has been promoted successfully, but he has a deep hatred with a demon king of the demon clan, so he is unwilling to disclose the news..."
"You mean he wants to attack secretly while he is unprepared?" Xu Xian said with some confusion, "How did you know?"
It is really incredible that Hu Yuerong, a folk alchemist who has no background and only has some connections, can actually know about this kind of concealment.
Besides, if even she knew, what's the point of this soul trying to hide herself? I'm afraid that his enemy in the demon clan would have known it long ago.
Hu Yuerong just shook her head and said, "Some people don't want that person to take revenge. After all, it's the time for the war between the two worlds... The news spread like this, and there are many people who know it now."
Xu Xian couldn't help but chuckled. Even the powerful True Lord of the Yuanshen had to face such a thing, and there would always be someone who "prioritizes the overall situation".
Of course, no one will openly ask that soul not to take revenge, which does not conform to the consistent principles of Taoism.
If that person can come to the door to kill the demon king publicly, I believe there will be no objection within the Taoist sect, but obviously he can't do it.
Since that's the case, don't blame someone inside the Taoist sect for dragging him down and expose the news in advance.
The True Lord of the Yuanshen may not be a solid piece, but there are few death revenge.
Xu Xian quickly figured out the dirty things, then looked at Hu Yuerong and said, "What about you? Why are you here to find me?"
Hu Yuerong was slightly silent before saying, "I want to exchange some information with you... confirm the true identity of that soul."
Xu Xian couldn't help but be happy: "You even know that one has a grudge against the demon clan, but you don't know his identity yet? Besides, I don't have many connections in the Taoist sect, so you may have found the wrong person in this matter."
Not being knocked down by Xu Xian's words, Hu Yuerong continued: "I know you have joined the Hall of Chengdao through a friend... but she refused to help me, so I'll come to you."
This made Xu Xian frown slightly. He knew that he had joined the Chengdao Hall. All the members of the Chengdao Hall would know about it, and he also knew their identities.
The identity of the members of the Hall of Chengdao is shared, and through this, there is indeed a chance to confirm the identity of the soul.
