After taking a trip to the ancient swamp, and returning to Peidu, Luoshui Palace has since added a resident monk.
This person looks very old, and it is said that he is Jin Qiao's cousin Jin Jian in Luoshui Palace. Knowing that his brother has become Pei Huang's mentor's capable subordinate, he came here to join him.
Luoshui Palace has always been strictly guarded, and the news that there was an extra person in the palace was only known to a few people, so naturally no one paid attention to it.
In contrast, the changes in the Yuchao Chen clan were even more concerning. Almost on the day Gu Chen came back, Liu Yan, Tang Xuance, Ye Mi and even several elders from the Yinlong clan came here one after another.
After finally dismissing a few people, the Taohua layman who was in the Yu Dynasty sent news again, tentatively asking Gu Chen about what happened to the Chen family.
Patriarch Chen died, and now Chen Qinghe, who is close to the shepherds and has a bad relationship with Gu Chen, is in charge of the Chen clan. With the intelligence network of the rebel army, it is not difficult for Layman Taohua to know this.
However, he made insinuations, probably because of the instruction of the high-level rebel army.
The rebel army and himself are considered allies, and the Chen family is also his allies. In other words, the rebel army and the Chen family are also potential allies.
The thinking of the rebel army is probably like this, so if something happens to the Chen family, they naturally hope to find out the situation.
Gu Chen wrote back to Jushi Taohua, asking him to build an intelligence network in Yuchao according to the original plan. Now that the power of Yuchao has been cleaned up, and all forces are in urgent need of fresh blood, it will be much easier to arrange spies inside them.
Gu Chen deliberately named the Chen family, so that the spies of Wuwang Pavilion should try their best to infiltrate the Chen family. Although he didn't answer Taohua Layman directly, it actually showed one thing: his influence on the Chen family was already great. Not as good as before.
As for how Jushi Taohua will report to the high-level rebel army after reaching this judgment, that is not what Gu Chen cares about.
Although Taohua Layman's intelligence network construction is useful, Gu Chen's focus has actually begun to shift slowly. After a while, he will slowly mobilize Ren Yin and other Yinlong clan members to take full power over the formation of intelligence networks in Yu Dynasty and even all over the world. Give it to Peach Blossom Lay.
Layman Peach Blossom is the best at what he can do. It doesn't matter if his results are limited, because he already has a better source of information...
After returning to Luoshui Palace for a few days, Gu Chen has been waiting, even in a state of restlessness.
He was waiting for the Great Prophet. The Great Prophet was invited away by Mu Zu. Now that the affairs of the Chen clan have come to an end, if all goes well, he should be released.
And if he regains his personal freedom, the first thing he should do is to find himself.
It took some time to go to the ancient great swamp to help Patriarch Chen cross the tribulation. Gu Chen reckoned that he should be able to see the Great Prophet soon after returning to Peidu.
However, the Great Prophet did not appear, and there was no new news from Luomen, so he was somewhat worried.
He has great trust in the wisdom of the Great Prophet, but Mu Zu is not an idle person after all, and his strength is overwhelming. If he intends to target him, it may be difficult for the Great Prophet to escape.
And once the Great Prophet is finished, he will inevitably be implicated. This is a matter that affects the whole body, so he can't help being nervous!
After returning to Peidu for half a month, the Great Prophet finally appeared in Luoshui Palace without incident, which completely relieved Gu Chen.
"What's going on?"
When Gu Chen met, he asked, even though he had already escaped a catastrophe, he still didn't know why the ancestor Mu would suddenly target the Chen family, and there were so many Taoist ancestors who also paid attention.
When the two talked, the Patriarch Chen Wenfeng, who had changed his name to Jin Jian, was beside him. Gu Chen intentionally asked him to participate in order to enhance the trust between the two parties.
He had done a lot of things behind the backs of Patriarch Chen before, and Patriarch Chen was very wronged because he was forced to fake his death.
Now it takes time and sincerity to mend the relationship between the two.
"Congratulations to Patriarch Chen for breaking through and becoming a saint."
The Great Prophet was not in a hurry to answer Gu Chen's question, and when he saw Chen Wenfeng disguised, he recognized his true identity.
"It's just a lucky breakthrough, the Great Prophet is still talking about business."
Chen Wenfeng shook his head, he didn't seem to care, but there was still a bit of joy on his brow.
When he learned that Dingkong Mountain was being targeted by Ancestor Mu, he almost thought that there was no hope of becoming a saint.
When he was crossing the tribulation in the ancient great swamp, the momentum of the thunder tribulation also made him waver for a while, doubting whether he could survive it.
Being able to become a saint is really a fluke, and it is thanks to the physical transformation brought about by the Dayuanli Technique.
The Great Prophet nodded, stroked his beard and sighed, "The reason why Ancestor Mu will focus on the Chen family this time is related to the vision that occurred in the Demon Mine in the early days."
"The Primordial Demon Mine?"
Gu Chen's eyes flashed brightly when he heard the words, it was the second time he had heard of the name of the Primordial Demon Mine from the Great Prophet.
This place is a well-known life forbidden zone in the Taoist world, and the reason why it is so dangerous is said to be related to a certain Yaogu Hegemony in the history of the Hegemony Clan!
"What is the relationship between the phenomenon in the Primordial Demon Mine and my Chen Clan?" Chen Wenfeng was at a loss when he heard it.
"It is rumored that Chen Sheng did not disappear back then, but was persecuted by Taoist ancestors, and fled into the Demon Mine of Absolute Beginning in desperation."
The Great Prophet casually uttered an astonishing secret, and he didn't know if he had calculated it or heard it from somewhere.
"What? The ancestor is in the Demon Mine of Absolute Beginning?" Chen Wenfeng's face was immediately moved.
"It's just a rumor, and the old man can't be sure. But not long ago, an astonishing phenomenon of heaven and earth suddenly appeared in the Demon Mine of Absolute Beginning. It is said that such a phenomenon will only appear when a Taoist ancestor is born."
"After that, Ancestor Mu suddenly targeted the Chen clan. Judging from the two things, the rumor that Chen Sheng escaped into the magic mine in the early days may not be true."
The Great Prophet came one by one, Gu Chen finally understood the ins and outs of the whole matter, Chen Wenfeng was also excited.
"So, the ancestor may still be alive, and he has entered the realm of Taoist ancestors?"
After searching for the ancestor for so many years, this is the best news Chen Wenfeng has ever heard!
"If Chen Sheng is still alive and has stepped into the realm of Taoist ancestors, how can he sit back and watch the second saint of the Chen clan fall?"
Gu Chen understood the thinking of the Taoist ancestors, and sighed, these words poured cold water on Chen Wenfeng.
"That's right, Chen Sheng didn't show up when the Chen family was in danger, so it's unlikely that the phenomenon of heaven and earth that appeared in the Demon Mine of Absolute Beginning was related to him. Of course, the Demon Mine of Absolute Beginning didn't even dare to enter easily, so no one knew It cannot be concluded that the specific internal situation must have nothing to do with Chen Sheng."
The Great Prophet said nothing, Gu Chen frowned and stared at him.
The old guy had previously revealed to him that Chen Sheng might still be alive, but now he looked ambiguous again, and he didn't know if it was because of Chen Wenfeng's presence.
"In any case, news is better than no news."
Chen Wenfeng finally adjusted his mentality, regained confidence from disappointment, and said with a smile.
I have been searching for so many years, and what I am most afraid of is that there is no news of my ancestor. Now that I finally know his whereabouts back then, and I have also broken through and become a saint, I should be happy.
Chen Wenfeng suddenly had the idea of going to the Demon Mine of Absolute Beginning to investigate. Now that he is no longer the patriarch, he doesn't have so many scruples.
If you are lucky enough to find your ancestor back, then death is worth it!
"If Patriarch Chen wants to go to the Demon Mine of Absolute Beginning, I would like to advise you, it's best to take it easy for now."
The Great Prophet seemed to have seen through Chen Wenfeng's thoughts and reminded him.
"Why?"
"Although the magic mine in the early days was a forbidden area for life, there was a vision of Dao ancestors. Why didn't news of such a big thing come out? Have you ever thought about it?"
The Great Prophet's words made Chen Wenfeng's face change slightly, and Gu Chen's pupils shrank slightly.
"Have you two figured it out? The Demon Mine of Absolute Beginning has now been jointly blocked by the Taoist ancestors of all parties, and relevant information cannot be transmitted, let alone go there?"
"Especially because your identity is sensitive. Once you go there and get caught, the consequences will be disastrous."
The Great Prophet seemed to be speaking to Chen Wenfeng, and Chen Wenfeng also took his seat, but Gu Chen noticed that he glanced at him.
The Demon Mine of Absolute Beginning is related to the ancestors of the Overlord Clan. Gu Chenruo, who is a Yaogu Overlord, is more sensitive and dangerous than Chen Wenfeng going there at this time.
