Chapter 1184 Crack
Chu Zhiyuan said, "This is probably the first time they've used this jade pendant."

"But it doesn't necessarily mean it's the first time using it," Ding Huanchun said.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded slowly.

I can't be sure if this is the first time.

It may have been used before.

Ding Huanchun examined the jade pendant in his hand, gritted his teeth, and said, "This matter cannot be kept secret; it must be reported."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded: "The sooner the better, let's go now."

Ding Huanchun clasped his hands in a fist salute, turned around and left in a hurry, his expression heavy.

Chu Zhiyuan watched him leave with a solemn expression, then took out the jade pendant from his pocket.

Close your eyes and begin to concentrate and sense.

The extrasensory senses expanded outwards.

Three middle-aged men, ten miles away, were standing on a mountaintop, looking down at this place.

The mountain peak stood majestically, half of it obscured by white clouds and mist, making it difficult to see clearly.

They stood amidst the clouds and mist, their eyes, eerie like those of wolves, observing this side.

Clearly, their eyes could penetrate the white mist and see what was happening here.

Chu Zhiyuan narrowed his eyes, observing the three men, and knew that they were the masterminds.

The three middle-aged men looked solemn and their gazes were cold and stern. They remained silent for a long time.

After Ding Huanchun left, they finally broke their silence.

"Who is this?" The middle-aged man in the center was tall and robust, with a handsome face and a calm and composed demeanor. He slowly said, "He has ruined our plans!"

"I don't know." The other two shook their heads.

"I haven't seen this person before."

"Judging from how this person interacts with Ding Huanchun, they are no different from acquaintances."

"A highly skilled retainer of the city guards?"

"That's possible."

We have to find a way to get rid of him!

"..."

All three fell silent.

They figured that if they were in their shoes, they would not have been able to handle the attack of more than sixty experts so easily.

The only option is to run for your life.

There were more than sixty experts, all of whom were at the Venerable Realm. There were differences in their minor realms, such as the first, sixth, and eighth stages of cultivation, and there was even one at the ninth stage.

With so many Venerable Realm experts attacking simultaneously, even a Ninth Rank expert would find it difficult to withstand.

Moreover, they possess extraordinary abilities, which could lead to mutual destruction.

This person killed all sixty-odd experts in just a dozen breaths; his strength was terrifying.

“What you say is right, senior brother. We must find a way to get rid of him!” A lean and strong middle-aged man said in a deep voice, “But senior brother, this boy is probably very difficult to deal with.”

"We have to deal with him, even if he's difficult!" the burly middle-aged man said. "If we don't get rid of him, our plan will be hard to carry out... He must have seen through the wonders of the Tears of No Dust, right?"

"It seems they've realized something's wrong."

"...This man has ruined our plans!" the burly, tall middle-aged man said coldly. "He must not be allowed to live!"

"Senior brother, how do we kill him?" The third of the three, who was ugly and had always been taciturn, couldn't help but shake his head and say, "It seems impossible to kill him."

"...We have no choice but to use the power of the Evil Lord!" the tall, middle-aged man said slowly, his voice hoarse.

The other two people's expressions changed slightly.

"Senior brother, please reconsider!" the ugly middle-aged man said in a deep voice.

Another lean, wiry middle-aged man shook his head and said, "It's not the right time yet."

Using the power of the Evil Lord comes at a huge price—an expensive and unbearable price.

The tall, middle-aged man said in a deep voice, "Can our elders handle him?"

The two middle-aged men shook their heads.

"Then how do we kill him?" the tall, middle-aged man said coldly. "Are we just going to let him roam free and continue to ruin our plans?"

"I heard that the imperial court has offered a reward for the Longevity Pill, and the Exorcism Division and the Demon Exorcism Division are vying for it." The ugly middle-aged man said slowly, "This person should not be from the Exorcism Division or the Demon Exorcism Division."

The other two nodded.

The Exorcising Department understands the Evil Sect, and the Evil Sect also understands the Exorcising Department.

Such a skilled person, and so young, could never remain unknown.

"Why not use someone else to do the dirty work?" the ugly middle-aged man said in a deep voice. "The Myriad Manifestations Sect or the Thousand Leaves Sect are also planning to break into the Imperial City recently. And the Giant Spirit Sect is said to be sending out their divine son."

The tall, middle-aged man asked, "Is the Divine Child of the Giant Spirit Sect real or fake?"

"Senior brother, it is said that this divine child has come down from the mountain and has appeared this time as well."

The tall, middle-aged man said in a deep voice, "The Giant Spirit Sect has extremely high ambitions!"

"The Giant Spirit Sect has released its Divine Child this time, so it should not be underestimated. Perhaps this Divine Child can kill this person!"

“This divine child will not listen to us.”

“We can pass on the message; this divine child must be arrogant.” “It might not work.” The tall, middle-aged man shook his head: “We still have to rely on ourselves.”

"Senior brother..."

Both middle-aged men looked like they wanted to dissuade them.

"This is something I really can't swallow!" The tall, middle-aged man took a deep breath.

All this painstaking planning, which was originally thought to be foolproof, was in vain in an instant.

This feeling of humiliation and frustration fueled an uncontrollable surge of murderous intent within him.

The ugly middle-aged man said, "Senior brother, with Wuchen Tears, we will eventually be able to break into the imperial city. We just can't be the first to break in."

The tall, middle-aged man said in a deep voice, "This fellow may have already seen the wonder of the Dustless Tear."

"So what?" the ugly young man laughed. "What difference does it make whether you know or not? Can it possibly break the Tear of Dust?"

"Impossible!" The tall, middle-aged man shook his head.

Even a lean and vigorous middle-aged man would shake his head.

The ugly middle-aged man frowned: "I feel something's not right. Maybe we should go back first."

The gaunt middle-aged man nodded hurriedly: "Let's hurry up and leave, lest he target us."

He had long intended to quit, but he was too embarrassed to show his fear, so he forced himself to keep going.

He had a vague feeling of unease.

That guy is too strange; who knows if he can sense the three of them watching him?

This guy can't be judged by common sense. What if he senses it and comes after us...?

"Let's go," the tall, middle-aged man said in a deep voice.

The three of them turned and leaped off the mountaintop, heading into the distance.

Just moments after he left, a portal of light appeared in the void. Leng Tieya stepped out of the portal and stood atop the mountain.

He glanced down at the spot where the three had been standing, then walked away gracefully.

The super-sensory aperture enveloped the three of them, slowly trailing behind them.

……

Chu Zhiyuan opened his eyes, but did not rush to leave the city gate. He continued to stand to the side with his hands behind his back.

The city guards felt much more at ease.

Having witnessed Chu Zhiyuan's slaughter and insight into evil, they felt awe and worship in their hearts.

With Chu Zhiyuan standing by their side, they felt completely safe and fearless.

The four people who used the Candle Demon Eye were especially reassured.

The previous two people had made them nervous and demoralized; if Chu Zhiyuan hadn't been standing by their side, they would have felt uneasy and guilty.

Seeing Chu Zhiyuan standing by, they felt reassured and unafraid of making mistakes.

Chu Zhiyuan took out the Wuchen Tears jade pendant, held it in his hand, and examined it closely.

Various auras entered the jade pendant, trying to figure out its interior.

The extrasensory perception was blocked, making it impossible to perceive its wonders.

Only the aura of the Demon-Subduing Divine Tree can stimulate it to behave abnormally.

The jade pendant shimmered with golden light.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the extrasensory perception revealed that the inside of the jade pendant was actually a ball of golden light.

Like a small sun.

It radiates golden light, yet it seems to be devouring the surrounding atmosphere, strange and contradictory.

Any other energy that entered was immediately swallowed up by this small sun.

As soon as the aura of the Demon-Subduing Divine Tree entered, the small sun not only did not devour it, but instead showed a sense of rejection, trying to expel it.

It shimmered with golden light, pushing the aura of the Demon-Subduing Divine Tree outwards, aiming to push it even further.

Chu Zhiyuan tried several times, injecting the aura of the Demon-Subduing Divine Tree in wave after wave, only to have it expelled time and time again.

Chu Zhiyuan was surprised.

This is the first time since obtaining the Demon-Subduing Divine Tree that I have had the power to expel its aura.

These dustless tears are truly wondrous.

However, there was little progress in trying to uncover its secrets.

He shook his head repeatedly, then suddenly turned to look.

Ding Huanchun arrived gracefully with two old men, Su Lingxuan and Zhou Chaoyang, whom he had met before, serving as retainers of the General's Mansion.

Chu Zhiyuan clasped his hands in greeting.

Su Lingxuan and Zhou Chaoyang smiled.

Su Lingxuan sighed, "Only Mr. Chu could discover something like this."

Chu Zhiyuan sighed, "Senior Su, have you discovered the wonder of this jade pendant?"

Su Lingxuan shook his head and said, "I've never seen this before. It's very troublesome. Let's see if we can find a way to counter it."

He took out a white bead from his bosom, which was as hazy as a ball of light: "This is the Myriad Manifestations Bead, which has the wonder of insight."
