The young man was about to report back to the Supreme Elder of the Yin Yang Gate, informing them about Lu Chen and the Supreme Emperor. How could Lu Chen agree to such a thing?
The young man put away the Peach Wood Sword and turned to leave.
Lu Chen snorted coldly, summoning the Nine-Five Dragon Cauldron from the Jun Bell. He first erased the Bone-less Sorcerer's imprint, then added his own. This way, the Nine-Five Dragon Cauldron would become his possession.
Lu Chen imitated the Bone-less Sorcerer, pouring Yin Yuan into the Nine-Five Dragon Cauldron before forcefully throwing it out.
He still felt somewhat unfamiliar with controlling the Nine-Five Dragon Cauldron, as he had never used it before. He was inspired to take it for himself after witnessing the Bone-less Sorcerer wielding this artifact and being amazed by its power.
The Nine-Five Dragon Cauldron flew out, arcing through the air before crashing into the young man.
Immediately, the Nine-Five Dragon Cauldron flew back, landing once again in Lu Chen's hands. With Yin Yuan enhancing it, he could manipulate it freely, which was quite marvelous.
The young man turned around and looked at the Nine-Five Dragon Cauldron in Lu Chen's hands. "The Nine-Five Dragon Cauldron used to suppress the Han Dynasty Court's palace was lost ten years ago. I never expected it to appear in your hands. You are becoming more and more astonishing."
Lu Chen remained silent, carefully recalling the Bone-less Sorcerer's actions. It seemed that there was a communication of Intentions between him and the Nine-Five Dragon Cauldron.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen threw the Nine-Five Dragon Cauldron out again and conveyed his Intentions through the Yin Yuan into the cauldron.
Then, to the young man's astonished gaze, a stream of Imperial Gold Energy shot out from the Nine-Five Dragon Cauldron, enveloping him.
Lu Chen continued casting spells, generating strands of Yin Yuan Power from his palms that flew out like threads, directly connecting with the Nine-Five Dragon Cauldron.
"You know too much!" Lu Chen said coldly as he controlled the Nine-Five Dragon Cauldron to suppress the young man.
Beams of Imperial Gold Energy poured down like droplets of water from an eaves, surrounding the young man.
As he was suppressed by the cauldron, the young man quickly waved his arm and cast a spell. A golden inner elixir flew out from his Yin Spirit to counter Lu Chen's Nine-Five Dragon Cauldron.
His Inner Dan was somewhat similar to the Inner Dan of the Treasure Guardian Beast; the principle was the same. It was cultivated from the Yin Spirit in the Upper Dantian, condensing an Inner Dan within it, much like an incarnation.
This was the Inner Alchemy Technique of the Yin Yang Gate, with a meaning akin to the Three Aspects of Yin Spirit found in the Void Immortal Secret Realm, though it was not the true Three Aspects of Yin Spirit.
According to legend, only the First Buddha of the Western Amitabha Sacred Land, Yenando Old Ancestor, had reached the secret realm of the Three Aspects of Yin Spirit.
All disciples of the Yin Yang Gate would master this Inner Alchemy Technique. When cultivated to its peak, it could directly replace their true body, making it incredibly powerful.
However, Lu Chen remained unfazed; he had seen such a scene before. With a movement, he summoned the Jun Bell and unleashed the Rending Void Technique, directly confiscating the Inner Dan of the Youth and drawing it into the Jun Bell.
The young man was momentarily stunned and then panicked, pointing at Lu Chen and shouting, "How dare you take my Inner Dan? You're asking for death!"
After a pause, he continued, "Very well, you are impressive. That treasure you just used is clearly from Yuanrong Immortal Island, a supreme treasure of King Jun. There are too many unsavory things about you; I will expose you when I return and ensure you have no place to be buried."
Without hesitation, the young man manifested his true form as a streak of light and quickly fled into the distance.
"Want to leave? It's not that easy!"
Lu Chen put away the Nine-Five Dragon Cauldron and Jun Bell. His true form flashed and transformed into a Thunderous Python, soaring through the sky at high speed.
In the next moment, as the young man flew beneath the clouds, preparing to escape, he suddenly saw lightning flashing in the clouds ahead. Lu Chen raised his Iron Treasure Sword and struck down fiercely.
Instantly, Lu Chen's face twisted in ferocity as his long sword cleaved from above the young man's head down to his feet, slicing him in half.
The young man's Yin Spirit was split in two; however, he would not die. As long as a trace of his Yin Spirit could escape, he could return to the Yin Yang Gate to report.
Lu Chen opened his mouth and let out a roar reminiscent of an Ancient Giant Elephant that resonated through the skies. The deep sound waves spread outwards, shattering all nearby Yin Spirit bubbles belonging to the young man into nothingness.
The sky gradually cleared as if nothing had happened. In Lu Chen's hand, besides the Iron Sword, he also held a wooden sword—the Peach Wood Sword left behind by that young man from the Yin Yang Gate.
The Peach Wood Sword is not much different from an ordinary sword; it is quite heavy and solid, indicating that it is a valuable item capable of cutting through iron like mud, worthy of being stored away.
This sword is indeed made of peach wood, but the raw material is extraordinary, crafted from ancient peach wood that has lived for thousands of years, and it has even been struck by lightning, making it incredibly hard.
The most important aspect is that peach wood is spiritually connected; every peach tree houses a fairy, although the one in this case was killed when it was struck by lightning.
After being forged into a sword two years ago, it can now be used to communicate with Intentions, infused with the essence of its creator. Since it once housed a fairy, communication is relatively easy.
If an ordinary tree were used to make a sword, it would be very difficult to communicate with Intentions, as there are no fairies residing within ordinary trees.
At this moment, the Peach Wood Sword contains the The Heart's Blood Imprint of the Youth, allowing for remote control and use as a Flying Sword.
Lu Chen was just about to store it away, planning to take time to study it later when suddenly, the Peach Wood Sword trembled and unexpectedly flew out of his hand.
This sword is spiritually aware; although it cannot speak, following it will surely lead to the legendary Yin Yang Gate sacred site.
However, Lu Chen would not let it fly away. If it returned and the people from Yin Yang Gate pursued him, he would be exposed.
“Buzzing and banging”
At first, the Peach Wood Sword struggled fiercely, jumping up and down in a somewhat violent manner.
Seeing this, Lu Chen quickly flew out and used the Jun Bell to absorb the Peach Wood Sword, then controlled the Nine-Five Dragon Cauldron to suppress it, using the massive cauldron body to pin down the Peach Wood Sword, leaving it no chance to struggle.
After doing all this, Lu Chen dusted off his clothes and pretended nothing had happened as he flew down from the clouds.
In this battle, he killed that young man. The Yin Yang Gate already had few members; now with another fallen member, they would eventually find out.
That young man was a senior brother of King of Qi Huangfu Yi, holding a significant status within the Five Element Sect.
However, Lu Chen had completely dealt with the situation, directly defeating him to the point of annihilation, leaving no possibility for rebirth. Therefore, the Yin Yang Gate would not know about it in the short term.
Additionally, having obtained the young man's inner dan, this was the first time Lu Chen had acquired such a thing. He could use it to refine divine artifacts and create spirit weapons.
There was also the Peach Wood Sword, which was one of the best treasures, a rare gem in the world, worth its weight in gold.
When Lu Chen returned to the Caravan, everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing him safely back.
After a brief conversation, Lu Chen explained his assessment of the situation to the core members, including the matter of Qi Kingdom moving troops towards Haining County City.
Subsequently, the team continued their journey along the official road, heading northeast.
Along the way, they passed through several large provinces, traversing the entire Lu Prefecture. Finally, after seven days, the Caravan entered Haining County City's territory.
Haining County City was located in the northeast of Central Plains and belonged to Qi Kingdom. It was also the last city before heading north from Central Plains, making its geographical position quite important.
As Lu Chen and his group arrived at the county city, they could see from a distance that standards were waving atop the city walls. Soldiers clad in Brilliant Armor stood ready with long knives drawn, dressed in fine clothes and on spirited horses, prepared for battle.
Seeing this formation, Lu Chen realized that this challenge had finally arrived; it was indeed the biggest obstacle on their quest for treasure.
Qi Kingdom had finally revealed its true face; they did not want to give up on the treasure but had laid a trap to wait for Lu Chen to fall into it.
Faced with such a situation, Lu Chen had no choice but to halt his team. Although their journey had been smooth so far, it was merely an illusion. Qi Kingdom had been waiting for this moment to annihilate him here.
Qi Kingdom had placed all their bets on this encounter. Their cunning plan began at Yan Nan Pass, leading Lu Chen step by step into their trap before tightening their grip to catch him like a fish in a barrel.
Princess Zhulan and others were somewhat panicked, standing frozen in place not knowing what to do.
The Qi Masters had long since drawn their swords, ready to charge at any moment.
However, charging forward at this moment would be tantamount to seeking death. The Qi Kingdom had long since set up the Great Formation, and their troops were all assembled, just waiting for Lu Chen and the others to deliver themselves to their doom.
"What should we do now, Lu Chen? It seems the Qi Kingdom has been waiting for us for a long time; this is a conspiracy," Princess Zhulan asked from the side, her delicate face slightly changing color as she sensed something was amiss.
Lu Chen remained silent, shaking his head as he looked at the distant Haining County City. The killing intent within was palpable, and the intense Yang Qi Flame surged like a large pot, with masculine energy shooting straight into the sky.
At this moment, Haining County City was filled with at least a hundred thousand mercenaries, completely occupying the city, and there were also troops stationed outside. Not even an ant could sneak past here.
Additionally, at another exit leading into Haining County City, some military forces were advancing inside. The Mingqi Kingdom and reinforcements were rushing in from other locations; the enemy's power resembled a growing Cypress Tree, instilling fear.
"Haining County is deep within the Qi Kingdom. Even if I return to Yushan Kingdom now to mobilize troops, it would be too late. Distant water cannot quench present thirst, and even if they arrive, they probably won't be able to confront the Qi Kingdom head-on."
A look of difficulty appeared on Princess Zhulan's face.
Mobilizing reinforcements from Yushan Kingdom was not far away—only a couple of hundred miles from the border—but Princess Zhulan had very few personal guards in her country. The only one she could rely on was Naval Minister Adolf from Dama Town, who was her uncle.
