Nine Yang Sword God

3Chen Chang He had been attacked by a Spirit Spell in his previous life, which was why he had given Hong Ji the chance to ambush him, and vowed that he would find a way to defend against the Spirit Spell.    

    

Because of Fu Yunzhi, Chen Chang Ku had some clues about how to defend against the mental attacks, but they were still unable to truly defend against the mental attacks. If he offended the Palace Lord, not to mention that his cultivation was not as good as her, just with her spirit attack technique, Chen Chang He would definitely lose.    

    

At the same time, Chen Chang He's heart became excited.    

    

The secret technique of the mind was the most mysterious and rarest of all secret skills. In fact, it was only second to the sacred inscription symbol in terms of rarity. One had to know that there were only nine different kinds of holy symbols in the entire world.    

    

Chen Chang Chen thought to himself: If... If I can obtain the Spirit Attack Secret Technique from the hall master, wouldn't my ability to cross borders increase to an exceptionally terrifying level?    

    

"Of course."    

    

Mei Er continued, "Sky Water Palace is not really that strong. There is still an extremely mysterious power in the city that even Sky Water Palace doesn't dare to provoke."    

    

"Oh?"    

    

Chen Chang Ku was curious.    

    

There were four great powers in the Forbidden City. The Wan Shou Clan, Zhongyi Hall, and Shangguan Family were not as powerful as the Heavenly Water Palace. How could there be another power that even the Heavenly Water Palace did not dare to provoke?    

    

If that was the case, why was it that there were not five major forces, but four? Isn't that a little strange?    

    

Seemingly having seen through Chen Chang He's thoughts, Mei Er said: "The Exorcist City is said to have four big powers, and not just five. It is because the mysterious power did not set up in the Exorcist City, but built his base outside the city. There was a Black Cloud Mountain outside the city. On top of the Black Cloud Mountain, there was a mysterious and powerful Black Cloud Stronghold. All the forces that dared to provoke them would be destroyed within a night's time. However, the real reason why Black Cloud Village became famous in one battle is because of the Spirit Stone mine battle three years ago. "    

    

Chen Chang Xiao became interested: "Spirit stone mining war?"    

    

Mei Er nodded and said, "Three years ago, there was news that said that the Black Cloud Stronghold's people established their location at Black Cloud Mountain because of a large spirit stone vein. More importantly, all of the spirit stones that they mined were mid-grade spirit stones. Medium-grade spirit stones were already considered precious, so how could a middle-grade spirit stone vein be considered valuable? At that time, other than the loyal hall who had a good relationship with the Black Cloud Stronghold, there was no other movement. The other three powers were all envious and wanted to fight a big battle with the Black Cloud Stronghold. However, due to Black Cloud Stronghold's previous fame, the Shangguan Family cleverly chose to hold back until they knew more about this force. As for the Heavenly Water Palace, they were also observing the flames from the other side of the river, and only the Ten Thousand Beast Gang's men were aggressive as they led their troops to attack Black Cloud Stronghold. That battle was the famous fight that happened three years ago for the Spirit Stone lode. "    

    

Chen Changyu asked expectantly, "What are the results?"    

    

The old ancestor of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect left behind a total of three Demon Beast Legions when he was alive, but in his battle with the Black Cloud Stronghold, one of the three Demon Beast Legions actually lost an entire army, while the other two also suffered heavy casualties. Other than that, one Spirit Emperor level expert also died, severely injuring two Spirit Emperor experts, and the Black Cloud Stronghold's side only lost thirty percent of their forces. More importantly, the Black Cloud Stronghold is known as the Black Cloud Stronghold did not even use all of their power! "    

    

"He's that strong without using his full strength?"    

    

Chen Chang He glared and said: "Doesn't that mean that the Black Cloud Stronghold is very likely to be higher than the Heavenly Water Palace?"    

    

Mei Er said: "There are rumors saying that if the Heavenly Water Palace Master does not have a mental attack method, Black Cloud Village has a 90% chance of destroying the Heavenly Water Palace. Even if the Heavenly Water Palace Master does have a mental attack technique, the Black Cloud Camp would at least have a 50% chance of winning if they were to fight against the Heavenly Water Palace. As such, even though the people from Zhuan Zhuan City were jealous, they did not dare to challenge Black Cloud Mountain anymore. Even the Sky Water Palace immediately gave up and obediently retreated back into their own territory. The Black Cloud Stronghold had become a living legend of the city. Moreover, after that battle, the Wan Shou Gang, who was originally ranked second among the four great forces, was now second only to the Heavenly Water Palace.    

    

"So terrifying."    

    

Chen Chang Zai smacked his lips, firmly remembering the name Black Cloud Stronghold.    

    

So it turned out that outside of the Heavenly Water Palace, there was another existence that should not be trifled with.    

    

Mei Er asked, "Do you have anything else you want to ask?"    

    

Chen Chang Zai thought for a moment and said: "Are these factions recruiting or not?"    

    

Mei Er was stunned at first, but then she said, "You want to join these big powers?"    

    

Chen Chang Zai said: "That's right, setting free the city is too dangerous, if I am to become famous here as a rogue cultivator, it is very likely that I will attract a fatal disaster. If I want to become famous in the city and protect myself, I must obtain the protection of a large force."    

    

"Good idea."    

    

Sister Mei Er nodded in agreement. "When I came to the City of Exorcist, I found that many of the weaker women were very pitiful, so I wanted to set up a Merry Forest. I wanted to help a bunch of poor women who would definitely be killed by their enemies if they left the city. Although the Merry Forest has gradually become one of the most famous powers in the city, the protective umbrella of the Merry Forest is just some personal and personal connections that I have worked hard to gain. It's not easy to protect those pitiful girls, so naturally, I have no way to protect a young man whose voice could shake the entire city … Joining the four great forces is also your best way out. "    

    

Chen Chang Xiao laughed, "That's why I need Mei Er to help me analyze this. Which power should I join, and what position do these powers have that suits me?"    

    

However, very few people are able to join Black Cloud Stronghold now, so it is impossible for us to join, so we can only choose one of the four forces to join. Although Tian Shui Hall is the head of the four great powers, I do not recommend you join them, because Tian Shui Hall is worried that one day they will fight against Black Cloud Stronghold, so it is best to prevent any unforeseen situations. In the last three years, they have been accepting people without restraint, and there are many good and bad ones in their sect. As for the Ten Thousand Beast Gang, since you've offended them, you can't join them either. Between the Loyalty Hall and the Shangguan Family, I suggest you choose the Shangguan Family. "    

    

Chen Chang Chen asked, "Why?"    

    

In order to fight steadily and stably, each member is a brother to life that the hall master can trust. If you join them, even if you perform very well, it would be difficult for you to garner the appreciation and respect of the important figures within a short period of time. However, the Shangguan Family is different. The Shangguan Family was the most powerful family with the longest history. The atmosphere in the family was harmonious, it did not seem like the power in the city, but more like some respectable and upright families. More importantly, I have some connections with the Shangguan Family that are relatively easy to use. I can arrange for you to enter within a short period of time, and it's very easy to get in touch with the Shangguan Family's core members! "As long as you have the ability, it's not a problem to get the appreciation of the Shangguan Family's big shots."
