Chapter 1222 Verification
"Is it really that amazing?" Lu Xiaolu asked curiously.

She knew that Chu Zhiyuan wouldn't give her ordinary secret techniques.

It must be far superior to ordinary secret techniques, and even superior to the kind of secret techniques found in the Moon Palace.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Senior Sister can try practicing this. It can be used to conceal one's aura and launch surprise attacks, especially when combined with your lightness skill."

Lu Xiaolu immediately burst into laughter and said with a charming smile, "Is it really that amazing?"

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Senior Sister will know as soon as she practices."

After Lu Xiaolu finished flipping through the book, she closed her bright eyes and began to regulate her breathing.

She is a prodigy, a top-tier figure even among the disciples of the Guanghan Palace, who have extremely high requirements for qualifications.

This secret technique for concealing one's aura is not difficult; after a short while, her aura changed.

After a while, his breathing became even more restrained.

As the secret technique was practiced and refined with repeated practice, its effects became increasingly powerful.

Half an hour later, as night fell completely and the moon rose higher, she vanished into the darkness.

Although the body was standing still, the breath had completely blended into the night.

She is the night, and the night is her; they are indistinguishable.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled.

He truly deserves to be called a prodigy; he mastered this secret technique in no time and became proficient in it.

It has now entered the inner sanctum and can be used extremely well.

"How is it?" Lu Xiaolu opened her bright eyes and asked softly.

She immediately noticed the abnormality in her voice.

Her voice became low and quiet, as if it came from a distant place.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded with a smile.

"I'll give it a try." She said with great interest, and floated away lightly.

Chu Zhiyuan watched her leave, but did not follow. He paced back and forth with his hands behind his back.

He was pondering news about Zhenxieyuan.

It seems the strange creature beneath the Zhenxie Abyss is indestructible; even my help is useless.

But why do Kwan Ching-ying and Wu Kai-yuen need my help?

Being in the Abyss of Suppressing Evil, they couldn't possibly be unaware of the power of this strange object; they should know that it was unkillable.

They need your help, or the strange object has changed and there's hope of killing it, or they've already figured out a way to kill it.

He felt a surge of eagerness and couldn't wait to give it a try.

What exactly is this strange object?
The wonders of this world are beyond imagination. I originally thought it was somewhere between the Lesser Heaven and the Outer Heaven, without any caves or secret realms, and nothing to explore.

But now it seems that's not the case.

……

He spun around a few times, and suddenly a white shadow flashed before his eyes.

He vanished from his spot in a flash, and reappeared behind Lu Xiaolu the next moment.

Lu Xiaolu sneaked up to him and reached out her delicate hand to pat his shoulder.

But it suddenly disappeared. She quickly shrank back and moved to the side, while turning around at the same time.

Chu Zhiyuan was standing behind her, reaching out to pat her shoulder.

Lu Xiaolu laughed and said, "You were able to spot me?"

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "I feel it's more accurate."

“This secret technique is really good. It can not only fool my senior sisters,” Lu Xiaolu said, “but also the experts of the city guards and the Exorcism Division, and even the experts of your Heavenly Sword Academy.”

She discovered that she wasn't discovered whether she went behind the city guard's office, behind the Guanghan Palace villa, or into the Tianjian villa.

This was something that couldn't be done before.

Such an ability to conceal one's aura, combined with one's lightness skill and swordsmanship, makes for an absolutely astonishingly powerful attack.

Thinking of this, she excitedly said, "Junior brother, let's go out for a walk."

"Kill demons?" Chu Zhiyuan asked.

Lu Xiaolu said excitedly, "I'll try out the power of this secret technique."

"Let's go then," Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile.

The two floated out of the small courtyard and returned to the detached courtyard of Guanghan Palace. They entered silently without alerting the experts in the detached courtyard of Guanghan Palace.

She changed into a green robe, and together with Chu Zhiyuan, they flew over the towering city wall.

The city walls are not only towering and majestic, but also possess the power to ward off evil, and consume a great deal of true energy.

It would be almost impossible for a master to scale this city wall.

The two silently scaled the city wall and landed outside the south gate.

Chu Zhiyuan pointed southeast.

Lu Xiaolu's eyes lit up as she sped off, her graceful figure blending into the night.

Chu Zhiyuan followed closely behind.

After traveling about thirty miles, Lu Xiaolu suddenly slowed down and silently slid into a grove of trees.

Inside the woods, a group of men sat around a roaring campfire.

A row of game meat sat on the bonfire, its fat sizzling and dripping, making the flames leap and burn brighter, filling the air with a delicious aroma. They held meat in one hand and wine jars in the other, taking frequent, hearty sips.

"Damn it, this is infuriating!" A young man wiped the wine stains from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve. "The Myriad Manifestations Sect and the Flying Spirit Sect are not worthy of their names, they are all empty boasts!"

Another young man sighed, "They really shouldn't have lost so badly."

These people witnessed firsthand how the two masters suffered a crushing defeat.

Hundreds of experts were utterly routed by the city guards, with less than one in ten surviving.

This is a rare and devastating defeat in recent years.

Evil sect masters rarely go out in large groups; they usually move out in small groups or launch surprise attacks by themselves.

It is truly rare for the Wanxiang Sect and the Feiling Sect to gather on such a large scale and launch such a fierce attack.

But once deployed, it often has remarkable effects and is incredibly powerful.

This time, however, the city guards seemed to have been prepared, having mobilized a large number of elite experts to strike back at the two groups of masters.

"Actually, it can't be said that the Wanxiang Sect and the Feiling Sect are cowards or don't live up to their reputations," a middle-aged man said in a deep voice. "There are experts from the Exorcism Division mixed in with the city guards. I recognized a few of them!"

Someone asked, "Aren't the Exorcism Division and the City Guard at odds?!"

"They really don't get along, are you sure you're not mistaken?"

"I couldn't be mistaken, they are indeed experts from the Exorcism Division!"

"They actually cooperated?"

"This is a bit troublesome. They were able to make things go so smoothly and put the city guards under immense pressure because they were not on good terms with each other before."

"I don't believe they can cooperate forever! ... After this great victory, they'll definitely fight for credit and start causing trouble again!"

"Yes, they have a deep-seated grudge and can't cooperate forever. They'll definitely go their separate ways, so we still have a chance!"

"Can we really break into the city?"

"can!"

……

Chu Zhiyuan glanced at Lu Xiaolu.

Lu Xiaolu frowned slightly, a cold glint flashing in her bright eyes, and turned to look at him.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

He bent down, picked up a stone, and threw it toward the campfire.

"boom!"

The campfire suddenly exploded, shooting in all directions towards the surrounding demons.

"who!"

Amidst the shouts, the demons attacked, using palm strikes, knives, and swords to block the fire.

However, the aura contained within Mars was extraordinary, and they discovered that they couldn't stop it.

"what!"

"Who?!"

"Sneak attack!"

"damn it!"

……

Shouts, roars, and screams filled the air, creating utter chaos.

The campfire had gone out, and the dense woods blocked out the moonlight.

In the darkness, people fell down from time to time.

Chu Zhiyuan and Lu Xiaolu moved swiftly, and wherever they went, one evil spirit after another fell.

After a cup of tea, all the demons that tried to escape the forest collapsed to the ground, none of them escaping.

Chu Zhiyuan and Lu Xiaolu stood by the original campfire. The ground was still steaming hot, and the aroma of roasted meat lingered.

The demons lay dead on the ground, yet there was no foul smell; their wounds were frozen, and no blood flowed.

Chu Zhiyuan asked, "Senior Sister, shall we continue?"

"Anything else?" Lu Xiaolu's bright eyes shone with excitement.

Lurking in the darkness, striking suddenly, and killing with a single blow—that feeling is incredibly thrilling.

“There’s more.” Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

“Then let’s continue!” Lu Xiaolu said hurriedly.

"Let's go." Chu Zhiyuan led the way, and the two began their sweep once again.

……

The two of them appeared outside the south gate early the next morning.

When Ding Huanchun saw him, he quickly went up to him with a big smile.

Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand: "Brother Ding, you're too tired. Let's talk another day."

After slaying demons all night, Lu Xiaolu finally had her fill.

Ding Huanchun looked at Lu Xiaolu with curiosity.

Lu Xiaolu, dressed in a green robe, looked radiant and showed no signs of Chu Zhiyuan's fatigue.
