Imperial Cultivation-Chapter 949 - 945: Observing in Silence
"Sigh..." Xu Yuhuo shook her head repeatedly.
A middle-aged man said solemnly, "Senior sister, isn’t this Prince Consort looking down on us too much?"
Xu Yuhuo turned to look at him, "Junior Brother Meng, if you were the Twelfth Prince Consort, why should you regard us highly?"
"We are the Four Great Sects."
"He is the Twelfth Prince Consort."
"Just a Prince Consort."
"The Twelfth Princess has a very close relationship with him; she is the Twelfth Princess."
"The Twelfth Princess is now just a princess, not the world’s number one."
"Destined to be the world’s number one." Xu Yuhuo shook her head, "If I were this Prince Consort, I’d be arrogant and domineering by now."
"Senior Sister, you wouldn’t."
"Humph, if it were you, you definitely would!" Xu Yuhuo gave him a sidelong glance, "Look at that Miss Fu, and you’ll know the prowess of the Prince Consort. With such skill, why be cautious?"
"We are the Four Great Sects!"
"He is not the Seventh Prince Consort, be careful around this Prince Consort!"
"...Yes!"
Chu Zhiyuan overheard this conversation and shook his head, smiling; this Elder Xu is indeed interesting.
Fu Zheng shouted against the roaring wind, "Your Highness, can we catch up?"
Chu Zhiyuan nodded.
Li Yuzhen said, "He should be taking another route, right?"
Chu Zhiyuan said, "To enter the Outer Realm Battlefield, one must pass through a gorge. Let’s wait there."
Li Yuzhen said, "That Golden Silk Gorge? If he has high Qinggong, he might not go through the gorge, right?"
Chu Zhiyuan smiled, "Let’s wait and see, if nothing happens in two days, we’ll move on."
"Is this Demon Artifact really important?" Li Yuzhen asked.
Chu Zhiyuan slowly nodded.
What kind of Demon Artifact could appear in the Human World? And this time, it’s too secretive.
No news came out initially, but as soon as it did, it was immediately taken away.
It feels like a carefully planned tactic.
It’s likely the work of the Great Heavenly Demon Palace.
Such an important Demon Artifact to the Great Heavenly Demon Palace is certainly not ordinary, how could we let it go?
It satisfies curiosity and weakens the Demon Clan.
Fu Zheng laughed, "Snatching something from the Demon Clan is thrilling!"
Li Yuzhen glanced at her sideways, shaking her head, "These Demon Clan also have top experts, don’t get shipwrecked in a ditch."
Fu Zheng said, "Don’t worry, Sister Li, I’ll be careful."
Their speed increased once again.
Fu Zheng sighed, "I thought I was fast enough, but I’m still far behind Your Highness."
The Moon Soul Sword Scripture greatly boosts speed, incredibly fast.
But compared to Chu Zhiyuan’s current speed, it’s still far behind.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled.
The First Form of the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record, he persisted in practicing without interruption, progress was slow but continued.
Combined with the aid of the Swift Light Sword, it has already surpassed the realm of Qinggong.
As he shrinks the ground into inches, he illuminates the surrounding hundred-mile radius.
He sprinted over two hundred miles, suddenly shifted, changing direction.
Fu Zheng and Li Yuzhen felt invigorated.
"Your Highness, did you find something?" Fu Zheng quickly asked.
She gently smoothed her disheveled hair and scanned the surroundings.
Chu Zhiyuan nodded.
Arriving at the edge of a cliff and stopping.
Below is a bottomless abyss, the bottom cannot be seen, only a dark scene is visible.
Chu Zhiyuan looked thoughtfully downwards.
Fu Zheng and Li Yuzhen stood by his sides, a breeze blew, their robes fluttered like two fairies descending to the human world.
"Your Highness, is the little demon hiding here?" Fu Zheng probed as she leaned forward.
A gust of vigorous wind suddenly blew up, and when it reached her face, it split instantly, passing by.
Chu Zhiyuan slowly said, "Below hides a Demon Clan expert, holding a strange item."
Near the bottom of the abyss, there is a cave, inside a handsome young man sits cross-legged, with a solemn expression.
Super Sense could not identify what this item was; even if it hadn’t recently grown stronger, it wouldn’t have been discovered.
"Should we snatch it from him?" Fu Zheng was eager.
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head, "Let’s wait and see."
Fu Zheng was puzzled, "Dreams change over time, just snatch and discuss later."
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head, "Let them snatch it first."
He restrained his Super Sense, concentrated his senses, feeling the danger by intuition, detecting a trace of peril.
Li Yuzhen tugged at Fu Zheng.
Fu Zheng curiously asked, "Do we want them to fight among themselves?"
Chu Zhiyuan said, "See who comes to snatch it, and investigate their background."
If this Demon Artifact is truly important, the Great Heavenly Demon Palace will certainly have backup plans.
They might even send top experts to act secretly, ready to snatch it at any time.
Furthermore, it could be a trap.
So, the more anxious we are at this moment, the more we need to remain calm, observe silently, and watch the situation change.
These complex thoughts are troublesome to discuss, so he didn’t explain further.
Li Yuzhen seemed thoughtful.
Fu Zheng also tilted her head, contemplating, "Your Highness, shall I first go probe their situation?"
Chu Zhiyuan nodded.
Fu Zheng instantly vanished, diving into the shadows.
This abyss is inconvenient for others, but for her, it’s like a fish entering water.
Shadows are her source of power, an amplifier.
Being in them, her movement technique is unparalleled, silent and traceless.
Li Yuzhen couldn’t find her figure, only feeling her disappearance.
Li Yuzhen shook her head in admiration, "This Moon Soul Sword Scripture is indeed remarkable."
Chu Zhiyuan laughed, "Do you want to practice it too?"
Li Yuzhen hesitated.
Chu Zhiyuan chuckled, "You always think too much, too comprehensively."
Li Yuzhen said embarrassedly, "Can I really practice it?"
Chu Zhiyuan gestured with his hand.
Li Yuzhen stepped forward, looking at him with bright eyes like water.
Chu Zhiyuan pointed his left fingers like a sword, lightly touching her brow.
Li Yuzhen immediately closed her bright eyes, her heart and spirit falling into an illusion realm.
Her being transformed into a bright moon, illuminating the dark earth.
After a tea’s time, Chu Zhiyuan retracted his finger.
His fingertip still carried a delicate, smooth feeling.
Li Yuzhen slowly opened her bright eyes, shining brightly, lightly sighed, "Such a Moon Soul Sword Scripture."
Chu Zhiyuan laughed, "Now you know why Xiao Zheng is so warlike, don’t you?"
Li Yuzhen nodded.
Her heart also stirred, eager to dive into the abyss.
Being inside the abyss, her strength would be greatly enhanced.
There’s a sense of dominating others’ fate.
"Prince Consort, let me go down and take a look." She whispered.
Chu Zhiyuan laughed.
Li Yuzhen sheepishly said, "I’ll just test this Moon Soul Sword Scripture’s effect, won’t act rashly."
Chu Zhiyuan puckered his lips, "Go ahead."
Li Yuzhen activated the Moon Soul Sword Scripture.
As if she had practiced for a long time, her True Yuan flowed effortlessly. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
She floated silently down into the abyss like a feather, vanishing.
Chu Zhiyuan nodded in satisfaction.
Li Yuzhen’s foundation was even deeper; although just learned the Moon Soul Sword Scripture, it was extremely fitting.
Super Sensing Illumination watched over the two women.
Fu Zheng was searching, Li Yuzhen soon caught up with Fu Zheng, they gestured to each other, searching east and west.
Chu Zhiyuan watched them getting closer to the cave, then completely ignoring it, passing directly without pause.
Chu Zhiyuan raised his eyebrow.
The two women were deceived; the young man’s mental method did not hide his aura, but an Exotic Treasure rendered an illusion.
He had no intention of reminding them, curious if they could find it.
They carried ice jade to dispel illusions, keeping a clear mental state.
Yet still fell for it, showing the Exotic Treasure the handsome youth carried was extraordinary.
The two women climbed up and down along the stone walls on either side of the abyss within a two-hundred-meter range.
An hour passed, yet nothing yielded.
Chu Zhiyuan stood with hands behind, Super Sensing Illumination on the surroundings, shaking his head.
There were passing Demon Clan experts, but none heading this way.
