Although there are many caves on Qingluan Peak, half of them are taken up by the many protectors and elders, and the remaining caves are simply not enough for the disciples.

Only direct disciples and some outstanding disciples are eligible to live in the cave.

The other disciples all live together in the Qingluan Palace at the top of the mountain.

Ji Chen's ability to occupy a cave with his foundation building cultivation naturally made him stand out. Xu Ling was not the first person to covet Ji Chen's cave.

Ji Chen didn't care about such a trivial matter at all, and comforted Junior Sister Xiaorou with a few words. He said a little strangely: "Xu Ling, a disciple of Zai Dao Peak, what does he want from my cave in Qingluan Peak?"

Junior Sister Xiaorou thought for a while and said: "Senior Brother, you don't know yet, Xu Ling has recently been pursuing Senior Sister Qin Dongdong from Qingluan Peak. He probably wants this cave to please Senior Sister Qin."

The little girl has already labeled Xu Ling as a "bad guy" in her heart, so she no longer calls Xu Ling her senior brother.

"Qin Dongdong?" Ji Chen tried his best to recall, and an image of a good-looking woman appeared in his mind, which he seemed to have met once in a sect competition.

"Yes, Senior Sister Qin is very beautiful." Junior Sister Xiaorou said.

"I think Xiaorou is more beautiful." Ji Chen said seriously.

He just told the truth, but Xiaorou blushed with embarrassment and was secretly happy in her heart, but she still said: "No way, Senior Sister Qin is from the Qin family, and there are many people pursuing her."

"Is it the Qin family, one of the eight major families?"

Junior sister Xiaorou nodded.

Ji Chen understood.

Although the eight major families in the world of cultivation are not as powerful as the five major holy lands, they are still a force that cannot be ignored. Xu Ling pursues Qin Dongdong, presumably because he is interested in the resources of the Qin family behind her.

But these have nothing to do with Ji Chen. If he wants to use his cave to show his courtesy, Xu Ling is probably overthinking.

Although the barrier at the entrance of the cave was just casually placed by Ji Chen, it is not that easy to break.

While Ji Chen and junior sister Xiaorou were drinking tea and chatting, Xu Ling returned to Zaidao Peak and found his father Xu Delong.

"Dad, take a look at this formation." Xu Ling handed over the formation plate.

Xu Delong took the array plate, glanced at it, then exclaimed, and began to observe it carefully.

As a sixth-grade formation master, his vision was naturally unparalleled by Xu Ling's. He could immediately tell that this seemingly ordinary second-grade formation actually had something more mysterious to it.

"Wonderful, wonderful!" After deducing for a moment, Xu Delong couldn't help but clapped his hands and praised, "It is indeed just a second-level formation, but it is made up of countless second-level formations, interlocking and extremely exquisite.

There is no way to break the formation."

"Dad, can you break this formation?"

Xu Delong pondered for a moment and nodded: "It can be broken if it is broken."

Xu Ling looked happy.

However, Xu Delong's next words poured cold water on him: "It just takes time to try and make mistakes. If you are lucky, it will take decades. If you are not lucky, it may take hundreds of years."

"Dad, you are a sixth-grade formation mage! This is just a second-grade formation..." Xu Ling couldn't believe it.

Xu Delong shook his head and sighed: "This formation is more like the work of a top formation master to show off his skills, or a game. People who can create such formations are fully capable of arranging seventh-grade or even eighth-grade formations."

I am not as good as him in Pin Da Zhen."

"By the way, Ling'er, where did you see this formation?"

Xu Ling didn't hide anything and explained the cause and effect of the incident.

"Ji Chen?" Xu Delong was stunned for a moment when he heard Ji Chen's name, and sighed, "It's been three hundred years, is he still stuck in the foundation building stage?"

"Dad, do you know him?"

"Not only do we know him, I even called him senior brother!"

Xu Delong entered the school only a few months later than Ji Chen. He was also considered the first batch of disciples after the expansion of the Zidao Immortal Sect. When he met Ji Chen, he really wanted to call him senior brother.

Unexpectedly, three hundred years have passed and he has become an elder of Zaidao Peak, while Ji Chen is still an ordinary foundation building disciple.

Xu Ling was stunned. He didn't expect that Ji Chen was not only his senior brother, but also his father's senior brother. Speaking of which, shouldn't he be called senior uncle?

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt that calling Ji Chen senior brother was not a loss of status.

"It's all in the past." Xu Delong waved his hand, "I think he probably learned this formation somewhere. Although this formation is complex, in the final analysis it is still a second-grade formation.

The level of formation skills is not high, as long as you know how to set up the formation, you can still arrange it with a little more effort."

Xu Ling nodded: "My child thinks so too."

Even if they were beaten to death, they would not dare to think that Ji Chen in the foundation-building stage might be a seventh- or even eighth-level formation master.

Seeing that his father could not break this formation, Xu Ling was a little disappointed, but then he changed his mind and came up with the idea of ​​this formation again.

A second-grade formation has a protective ability comparable to that of a seventh- or eighth-grade formation. The value of this formation method is absolutely beyond imagination, and it is more precious than ordinary seventh- and eighth-grade formations.

Even if you know how to set up a formation at level 7 or 8, you won't be able to set it up without the level of a formation master.

But this second-grade formation can be arranged by a monk who has some basic knowledge of formations and spends some effort.

As a disciple of Zai Dao Peak, Xu Ling's attraction to precious formations was far greater than those treasures such as magic pills and pills.

When a disciple of Zaidaofeng sees an exquisite formation, it is like an old man visiting a brothel. He must study the inside and outside thoroughly.

"The value of this formation is far greater than that of the cave." Xu Ling thought secretly, how to get the formation formation method from Ji Chen.

As a major righteous sect, the Purple Dao Immortal Sect has strict sect rules. Taking it by force is definitely not feasible, so the only way left is to trade.

What treasures can be used to exchange for this formation method?

If you want to make a deal, you must do what you want. Originally, Xu Ling thought that Ji Chen's most urgent task was to break through the realm and form a golden elixir. However, he exchanged Ji Chen's cave for the Yuan Ning Dan, which could increase the probability of forming a elixir.

A gray nose.

"What other hobbies does Ji Chen have? Women? Spiritual stones?" Xu Ling decided to take a closer look.

…

Two days passed in a flash.

That evening, Ji Chen, who had nothing to do, took Wangcai for a walk on Qingluan Peak.

Wangcai is a dog and needs to be walked, but in most cases, Ji Chen is not in the mood, so Wangcai can only walk himself.

It was rare that Ji Chen was in the mood to walk his dog today, and Wangcai was very excited, spinning around his feet.

Ji Chen gently raised his hand and threw the ball far away. Wangcai ran very fast with his short legs and rushed towards the direction where the ball fell.

"Senior Brother Ji, what a coincidence."

I met a man and said hello, it was Xu Ling.

Coincidence?

Ji Chen raised his head and glanced at Xu Ling. This guy had been squatting at the door of his cave for two days. What did he want to do? To assassinate him?

"Is something wrong?" Ji Chen said calmly.

"Ah, it's okay, I just happened to meet up and chat with my senior brother." Xu Ling's attitude was much more warm and friendly than last time.

At this time, Wangcai ran back with the ball in his mouth and returned the ball to Ji Chen.

"Senior Brother Ji also has pets?" Xu Ling's eyes lit up.
