Chapter 222 Liu Zhen's Actions
He has an ordinary appearance and ordinary aptitude. He has three spiritual roots, earth, wood and fire, and the value of each of them is not too high. To be honest, a person with this aptitude is most suitable to be an mediocre alchemist who can only make low-level pills.
But these are all external appearances.
What was different about him when he came out of the secret realm this time was his temperament and the improvement of his cultivation.
Temperament is sometimes not determined by what you wear, but by a person's vision and experience.
Everyone was thrown out of the secret realm, and he was no exception. The person who caught him was an elder from one of the five inner sect peaks. However, after the elder caught him, he saw that he was an outer sect disciple he had never seen before, so he threw him aside and went on to pick up the next disciple.
Liu Zhen has long been accustomed to being looked down upon.
Which of these high and mighty elders of the sect can look upon the status and position of outer disciples?
After standing still, Liu Zhen calmly tidied up his messy clothes and sleeves, and finally touched a storage bag on his body. With a smile on his face, he walked towards Elder Yifeng.
Suddenly, he felt something hard on the sole of his shoe. He looked down and saw it was a small stone. It had rained a few days ago and the ground was soft. He stepped on the stone and it had sunk into the mud.
At first, Liu Zhen felt it was a little strange. This place was the entrance to the Twin Secret Realm, and the ground directly below had already been cleaned by their sect disciples. It was very flat. Even though it had just rained, it was mostly mud, and there were no stones to be seen. This small stone was embedded in the mud. Although it was easy to overlook it if you didn't pay attention, it would seem a bit abrupt if you looked carefully.
However, in the current situation, there were too many people around and as a disciple who wanted to make progress, he was afraid that he would be criticized if he suddenly bent down to pick up stones from the mud. So he suppressed his curiosity, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that Elder Yifeng's eyes had already begun searching among the crowd.
Opportunities are fleeting and once lost, they will never come back. Of course, you must seize the opportunities that you create.
The seal of the storage in his hand seemed to be full of things, and some of them could not be tightened, so he held it loosely in his hand.
"Outer sect disciple Liu Zhen greets Elder Liu."
Liu Zhen held the storage bag and bowed deeply to the elder of the First Peak.
"No gift."
As one of the chief elders of a peak, he had seen many treasures and various grand scenes in the world, but he was still extremely surprised when he saw what this disciple had in his hand.
"I have heard that the elder's alchemy skills are unmatched in this world, and I admire you very much. After entering the secret realm this time, I have encountered many opportunities and collected a lot of spiritual plants. These spiritual plants are rare and old. Although I am also an alchemist, I am only an outer disciple after all. My alchemy skills are not advanced enough, and I must not waste these top-quality spiritual plants. At this time, I thought of you in my heart. Only you can make the most of these rare and old spiritual plants. Therefore, I am willing to present these beautiful things to the elder, and I hope the elder can accept them."
A very straightforward and sincere gift.
A mere outer disciple actually dared to give such a big gift to the chief elder of a peak. What does he want to do?
Some people couldn't help but sneer quietly.
Who is this person? He is so bold. Not only is he bold, but his train of thought is also very strange. An outer disciple got a treasure and wanted to present it to the inner elders to ask for the status of an inner disciple. Many outer disciples would do this, so it is not worth making a fuss about.
What is surprising is that when other outer disciples want to seek inner sect status, most of them have an idea in their minds and will naturally exclude the top four peaks when seeking.
After all, what does the first four peaks of the sect mean? It means that they are the original four peaks of the sect. No matter how big and powerful the sect will be in the future, the status of the people of these four peaks will always be ahead of other disciples! The fact that a mere outer sect disciple can be assigned to the outer sect shows how poor their qualifications are. Such people have to weigh their own weight if they want to get the status of the inner sect.
This is great. Liu Zhen from the outer sect actually played a big trick in public just when the secret realm was closed.
He brought the treasure and went before the elder in charge of the peak.
It was too funny. Some people were trying hard to hold back their laughter, and some even broke down on the spot. The faint and hidden sneers were particularly clear in the silent place.
But Liu Zhen's expression didn't change at all.
He had rehearsed today's plan countless times. He had certainly taken the sneers from others into account. He had imagined the scenario countless times, and now it was actually happening before his eyes. However, he had long been numb to it. How could he get angry and look for the source of the sneers?
"There seems to be the scent of Pure Heart Lotus here?"
This little disciple paid no attention to those rumors. As the head elder of a peak, he was naturally able to keep his composure.
"To reply to the elder's words, that's right."
Liu Zhen lowered his head and answered very respectfully.
"Yes, you have some courage. This thing grows in a forbidden area. You can go there to pick it and come back safely. I think you must have some skills."
Elder Liu from the First Peak was generous in his praise, and it was obvious that he liked Liu Zhen very much.
"By the way, I heard your last name is Liu?"
"Replying to the elder, my disciple's surname is indeed Liu."
"So, this is fate. You and I are both alchemists, and we happen to have the same surname. Plus, you were able to pick the Pure Heart Lotus, which is enough to prove your ability. A disciple like you, who has courage and ability, would be buried if he was always assigned to the outer sect. So, I will accept these spiritual plants of yours, and you, also want to come to our peak and become an inner sect disciple. How do you think?"
The words of the chief elder of Yifeng almost made everyone drop their jaws.
What is that little outer disciple trying to achieve?
With those few spiritual plants he picked in the secret realm, the spiritual plants that almost everyone has, he actually became the chief elder of a peak?
Oh my God, why didn’t they have such a good thing happen to them!
If they had known that the elder of Yifeng actually liked the spiritual plants produced in the secret realm to this extent, the first thing they would have done when they came out would not have been to give all the spiritual plants to their own teacher, but to find ways to send them to this elder and see if they could... get a spot as Yifeng's inner disciple!
Unlike everyone else's amazement, Liu Zhen, the person involved, was not surprised at all, but on the surface, she had to pretend to be grateful.
