Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

In the years following Lu Chen's breakthrough, she kept a close eye on the situation of the immortals of the Great Qin Immortal Dynasty. However, she soon discovered that the slight loss of fortune did not have a significant impact on those immortals.

This is mainly because the Great Qin Immortal Dynasty has abundant fortune. Although he absorbed the fortune of those immortals, their fortune, under the blessing of the Great Qin Dynasty's fortune, is similar to that of the immortals when they were not subjects of the Immortal Dynasty. In fact, some of their fortune is even more abundant than before, even after being absorbed by Lu Chen.

Seeing that absorbing the fortune had little impact on the immortals of the Great Qin Dynasty, Lu Chen felt relieved.

Of course, Lu Chen did not intend to absorb it a second time, because if he did, it would probably have an impact.

……

late at night.

The Great Qin Dynasty, its capital.

A ghostly figure appeared outside the palace. Soldiers of the Great Qin Dynasty passed by the figure without noticing its presence, as if they had never seen it at all.

The Evil Shadow Immortal King sensed the aura within the palace and felt somewhat confused. Why was there only the aura of an Immortal Lord in the palace?

Could it be true, as he inquired, that Lu Chen's cultivation level is at most only at the Immortal King realm, and that Lu Chen's Immortal King realm is not lasting?
Since entering the Great Qin Immortal Dynasty, the Evil Shadow Immortal King had been collecting information about Lu Chen, and soon he discovered that Lu Chen was not as formidable as he had thought.

According to the intelligence he had gathered, Lu Chen's strength had never seemed very strong; at most, he could only demonstrate the strength of a Celestial King, while his cultivation level was mostly below that of a Celestial Lord.

Even when he founded the Immortal Dynasty, his cultivation level was not very high.

Logically speaking, to establish a Celestial Dynasty, one must possess the essence of the Great Qin Celestial Dynasty; otherwise, the Great Qin Celestial Dynasty would not be able to gain the approval of the Heavenly Dao.

This made the Evil Shadow Immortal King suspect that Lu Chen's cultivation level was actually not very high, but that he knew some secret techniques that allowed him to raise his cultivation level to the Immortal King realm in a short time.

Or perhaps, after Lu Chen emerged from the Chaos Sea, his foundation was damaged, and he was unable to maintain his Immortal King cultivation most of the time. Only when he encountered danger could he unleash his Immortal King cultivation by burning his divine soul.
The intelligence he collected was almost entirely obtained through soul searching, so he had complete faith in the information he gathered.

However, he now has another question: if Lu Chen's main body is not very strong, then how did Lu Chen inscribe the Saint-level array patterns?

It is said that, apart from Lu Chen, no other Immortal Venerable has been able to inscribe the array patterns of that Saint-level array, which proves the power of Lu Chen's divine soul.

If Lu Chen's soul is really that powerful, then his main body's strength must have reached at least the Immortal Venerable realm. It's impossible that he has always been below the Immortal King realm. Could it be that he is deliberately hiding his cultivation level?
The news has spread throughout the entire Tianyan Immortal Realm. Immortal Venerables from various forces are saying that only Lu Chen can inscribe Saint-level array patterns, and each Immortal Venerable is thinking of inviting an avatar of Lu Chen to their forces. Therefore, the fact that Lu Chen can inscribe Saint-level array patterns should be true.

The Evil Shadow Immortal King was conflicted. On one hand, he wanted to make a name for himself, but if Lu Chen's main body was indeed not very strong, he wanted to take direct action against Lu Chen.

Lu Chen is the person Blood Ancestor wants. If he can capture Lu Chen's main body, he will definitely receive a reward from Blood Ancestor. Perhaps with Blood Ancestor's help, he can quickly break through to the Immortal Venerable realm.

The Evil Shadow Immortal King fell into deep thought and began to sort through the information he had obtained.

First of all, Lu Chen had no need to hide his strength. If he possessed the strength of a Celestial Venerable, revealing his power at the beginning would actually deter those who wanted to take advantage of him. Moreover, the stronger one's strength is when establishing a Celestial Dynasty, the more beneficial it is for the dynasty's expansion. No Celestial Dynasty ruler would hide their cultivation level when establishing a dynasty, so Lu Chen's cultivation level is very likely just below Celestial King.

As for why Lu Chen was able to inscribe the Saint-level array patterns that even Immortal Venerables couldn't, it's not impossible to explain. That Saint-level array was originally brought out by Lu Chen. Perhaps he didn't bring out the complete Saint-level array patterns, which is why no Immortal Venerable was able to inscribe them completely.

He didn't believe that among all the Immortal Venerables in the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Realm, only Lu Chen could inscribe the array patterns of that Saint-level formation.

Among so many Immortal Venerables, there must be some who specialize in studying formations. If even an Immortal Venerable who studies formations cannot decipher the Saint-level formation that Lu Chen took out, then it is very likely that there is a problem with the formation's patterns themselves.

Thinking of this possibility, the Evil Shadow Immortal King felt a surge of excitement. He felt as if he had seen through Lu Chen's little trick.

He now strongly suspects that Lu Chen deliberately gave the fake Saint-level formation to someone else, creating the illusion that only he could inscribe that Saint-level formation, so that his status in the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Realm would be infinitely elevated.

People will not only think that Lu Chen is very powerful, but also that he is so important that they will not dare to mess with him.

The more the Evil Shadow Immortal King thought about it, the more convinced he felt he had deduced the truth. At this moment, his heart was already restless. If he could really capture Lu Chen's main body and take it back, then the credit would be all his.

Thinking of this, the Evil Shadow Immortal King did not hesitate at all. He immediately transformed into a shadow and sneaked into the palace.

Inside the Qin Imperial Palace, the patrolling guards did not notice the presence of the Evil Shadow Immortal King. Before long, the Evil Shadow Immortal King sneaked up to the outside of the Imperial Study.

He could sense Lu Chen's presence in the Imperial Study by tomorrow morning.

At the same time, Lu Chen was looking through some intelligence about the wilderness that people had collected when he suddenly sensed a faint evil aura emanating from the air.

Lu Chen had cultivated the Divine Illumination Thousand Lamps Scripture, making him extremely sensitive to evil energy. Although the other party had concealed it well, Lu Chen still managed to sense this trace of evil energy.

Lu Chen frowned slightly. Had an evil immortal infiltrated the palace?
What kind of evil immortal has such audacity?
He seemed to have only dealt with the evil immortals when he was in the Southern Region. It shouldn't be an evil immortal from the Southern Region who came here, since he severely injured the Blood Eagle Palace by self-destructing during the defense of the Xuan Yue Palace. Even if the Blood Eagle Palace wanted to retaliate against him, they would have to consider their strength.

Since they weren't there for revenge, there's another possibility: they're probably after the opportunity they possess.

Righteous forces now consider him very important, and even if they covet the opportunities that might exist within him, they will not easily make a move against him. Only those evil immortals would not care about such things.

The evil immortals are inherently prone to creating chaos, and they probably don't care whether strange creatures invade the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Realm. Therefore, if they suspect that he has some kind of opportunity, they are very likely to take action against him.

Just as Lu Chen was speculating about what the evil immortal who had infiltrated the palace was doing, he clearly felt the evil aura growing stronger, which meant that the other party had already entered the imperial study.

However, aside from sensing the evil aura, Lu Chen did not discover the figure of the lurking person. (End of Chapter)
