Chapter 176 Preparations Before Taking Action

"What the heck?"

"A formation?"

"Ideally, a formation that can explode?"

Peak formation.

Tu Qiang looked at Su Wuchen with a strange expression. Heaven knows how this guy suddenly came to the formation peak and found him to remove such a strange requirement.

Does he think those formations are just common, mass-produced items?

Could he easily produce a whole bunch of them and throw them out like explosives?

"As the chief disciple of the Formation Peak, preparing some formations shouldn't be too difficult for you, right?"

Tu Qiang scratched his head. "Holy Son, it's not difficult for me to give you some array base plates or something, but you have to make the array explode—"

"Then you should go to Danfeng. They mostly research strange and unusual explosive pills there, which are much better than my formation."

"Understood, I'll be there in a bit."

"————?"

Tu Qiang raised an eyebrow, somewhat puzzled.

What is this guy trying to do, wanting both formations and explosive pills?

"Um, Holy Son, do you need these things for..."

"Of course, we're going to do something big."

Su Wuchen said with a smile, "You just need to help take care of these things."

Tuqiang nodded thoughtfully.

Su Wuchen is the Holy Son, so naturally he has to cooperate fully.

Especially recently, Su Wuchen's overwhelming power had already earned him the approval of many elders within the sect.

"Wait for me a moment, I'll go make some arrangements."

"Thank you for your help, senior brother."

"polite."

Tu Qiang turned and left.

Su Wuchen picked up his teacup and waited with a contented expression.

With the basic array formation and the pills from Danfeng, even if Wuqi has thousands of troops under his command, they can still attempt a decapitation strike.

Tu Qiang acted quickly, bringing back two storage bags in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

"Holy Son, these two storage bags are filled with various array base plates. Once the array base plates are activated, arrays can be quickly formed."

With that, Tu Qiang handed the two storage bags to Su Wuchen.

After opening and examining it, Su Wuchen nodded in satisfaction. There were many trapping and killing formations inside, which would definitely be a great help in dealing with the demons under his command.

Even if they can't trap and kill the monsters under the household's command, they can at least buy them time.

"Thank you for your trouble, senior brother."

"You're too kind, Your Majesty."

Tu Qiang smiled and said, "I am rather curious as to what the Holy Son intends to do with these things. If it is inconvenient, there is no need to say."

Su Wuchen shook his head. "It's nothing major, I just want to kill a second-grade demon."

"————?"

Tu Qiang looked stunned.

Kill a second-rank demon?

No.

"Holy Son, are you serious?"

He's only at the third rank, yet he's going to kill a second-rank demon?!

That's a near-top-tier existence within the forbidden area.

Once he gets close, not to mention whether he will be killed on the spot, the demons under his command alone would be enough to wear Su Wuchen down.

No wonder he was looking for these formations.

"hehe----"

Su Wuchen smiled. "Senior Brother Tu, I have other matters to attend to, so I won't bother you any longer. Farewell."

Take care.

Watching Su Wuchen leave, Tu Qiang couldn't help but pat his head.

The world feels somewhat unfamiliar.

He's going to hunt down second-grade demons!

rough!

"Seclusion!"

"If anyone comes, tell them I'm in seclusion!!"

After wandering around several mountain peaks, Su Wuchen successfully obtained many useful weapons for his own protection.

but.

The news that he wanted to kill the second-grade demon also spread within the sect.

The mad elder and the sect leader found him immediately.

"Are you crazy?"

The mad elder couldn't understand why someone would abandon a perfectly good holy son to serve a second-grade demon.

Su Wuchen: "I'm not crazy, I'm perfectly fine."

Sect Master: "Second-grade demons are even harder to kill than Venerables. Even if you brought some weapons from the various peaks, you might not be able to take it down!"

"I suggest you—"

hum.

Su Wuchen released his aura, causing the sect leader and the mad elder to widen their eyes in surprise.

Early stage of Rank 2!

No!

How did his cultivation level improve so quickly?

"When did you break through to the second rank?"

The sect leader was shocked, but his face was filled with ecstasy.

Su Wuchen: "I encountered some demonic beasts a while ago and sparred with them."

metropolitan:

"————?"

Is this a serious exchange?

Just a friendly spar, and he broke through to the second rank?

You should know that back then, the sect leader spent hundreds of years cultivating outside and only managed to break through from the third rank to the second rank. Su Wuchen, on the other hand, broke through to the second rank after just a period of sparring with others.

The mad elder couldn't help but sigh, "What a variable!"

The sect leader nodded slowly: "I didn't expect your strength to improve so quickly. It seems that you are determined to kill this second-grade demon."

"inevitable."

Su Wuchen nodded emphatically, "Fighting against the heavens is endlessly joyful, fighting against demons is endlessly joyful."

"I need a powerful opponent to improve my strength, so this second-grade demon is undoubtedly the best opponent."

The sect leader and the mad elder remained silent.

A second-rank Venerable is already among the world's top combatants.

Within any sect, he would wield immense influence.

That is precisely why it is very difficult to fight to the death with a second-rank Venerable, unless there is some insurmountable grudge.

Otherwise, everyone can turn hostility into friendship.

They were unwilling to watch their sect's second-rank Venerables fight to the death with others, needlessly diminishing their sect's strength.

Su Wuchen has already reached the second-grade Venerable realm. If he wants to quickly improve his cultivation, then finding a powerful opponent is undoubtedly the best way.

However, others may not necessarily fight him.

so----

The monsters within the forbidden area are the best opponents.

"Alright."

The sect leader nodded slowly, "If it is impossible, then we should try our best to retreat unscathed."

"clear!"

Su Wuchen nodded with a smile. "I'm leaving."

With a wave of his hand, Su Wuchen sat on the Heavenly Prison Beast and left the sect.

Watching Su Wuchen leave, the sect leader couldn't help but say, "You really found a good disciple."

"What are you saying?"

The mad elder said with a grin, "However, judging from the direction he went, why wasn't he heading to the Valley of Ten Thousand Cultivators, but rather to the forbidden area?"

"God knows."

"Are we heading into forbidden territory?"

"They killed Mantian back then, but they still kept his mount—"

Hehehe!

The Heavenly Prison Beast instantly understood Su Wuchen's meaning.

Not long after leaving the True Yang Sect, Zhu Kui followed. After understanding Su Wuchen's intentions, he entered the forbidden area without hesitation.

Under the overwhelming suppression of Su Wuchen and his companions, Mantian's mount had no chance to fight back and was killed by them.

After dealing with Mantian's mount, the monsters in this forbidden area were no longer enough to cause any trouble.

The group arrived in the Qin state.

Compared to before, the Qin state is now significantly more powerful.

The reason I say this is because after Su Wuchen and his group entered the royal city, they discovered a large number of fourth and fifth-grade cultivators! The number was ridiculously high!

You should know that back then, Zhao Qingluo only had a few fourth-rank cultivators protecting her, but now, fourth- and fifth-rank cultivators are as numerous as hairs on a cow in the royal city!

It is easy to imagine how terrifyingly powerful the Qin state had become under Zhao Qingluo's leadership over the years.

"Shall we just go in?"

"This is their royal palace, after all. Wouldn't it be disrespectful for us to just barge in?"

"~~1（△ ）"

The Heavenly Prison Beast scoffed, "That little empress has long been in love with you. Even if you ran right into her bed, let alone run straight in, she'd happily spread her legs—ah!"

Before the Heavenly Prison Beast could finish speaking, Su Wuchen slapped it on the head.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Am I telling the truth?!"

The Heavenly Prison Beast muttered, "Spring has arrived, it's the perfect time for animals to mate. Why don't you and her just hug each other like animals?"

Oh my god————

Su Wuchen pulled out the noodle, never expecting that the Heavenly Prison Beast's view on love would be so direct.

but.

For the Heavenly Prison Beast, there seemed to be nothing wrong with it.

Just as they were talking, Zhao Qingluo, dressed in a dragon robe, rushed out in a hurry with a group of guards.

Upon seeing Su Wuchen, he was immediately overjoyed.

"Fellow Daoist in a madness!"

"Greetings, Your Majesty."

"Are you laughing at me, fellow Daoist?"

Zhao Qingluo rolled her beautiful eyes at Su Wuchen, "Why are we being so distant? Why send someone to inform me?"

"Watch out, all of you. From now on, when you come here, there's no need to announce your arrival. Do you all understand?"

"As you command!"

"Fellow Daoist, please come in."

"please."

The two walked side by side, attracting the curiosity of many guards and ministers.

The empress, who was holding court, ran out of the palace after hearing the word "madness".

Just how capable is this person?

"Obsession————"

"What's wrong? You've heard about it?"

"I remember twenty years ago, when Your Majesty was still the eldest princess, you were almost harmed by others. It was the Holy Son of the Zhenyang Sect who helped Your Majesty ascend the throne."

"hiss!"

"Is that him?"

"It should be, otherwise why would His Majesty value this person so much?"

"Is he the Holy Son of the True Yang Sect?"

"Wasn't it said that the Holy Son of the True Yang Sect has been diligently cultivating in the Valley of Ten Thousand Cultivations?"

"Something must have happened."

Inside the palace.

Zhao Qingluo looked at Su Wuchen with a smile, and said with some resentment, "You've been gone for twenty years, always hiding in the Valley of Ten Thousand Cultivators to cultivate."

"If it weren't for the fact that the True Yang Sect has your soul tablet, I wouldn't even know if you died in the Valley of Ten Thousand Cultivators."

"Hey hey hey, am I really that short-lived?"

Su Wuchen smiled and got straight to the point, "As the saying goes, no one visits a temple without a reason. I've come to see you this time because I need your help with something."

"Please feel free to speak."

"I need a lot of bombs."

"bomb?"

Zhao Qingluo looked surprised. "Bombs might be effective against ordinary cultivators, but those with a cultivation level of seventh rank or higher can avoid them. What do you need these things for?"

"Of course I have my uses."

Danfeng's pill bombs are very effective at killing fourth and fifth-grade demons, but what about demons below fourth and fifth grade?

That would be more troublesome.

We can't waste our energy on these monsters, can we?

and.

Those are all experience points!

Therefore, Su Wuchen thought of Zhao Qingluo and the bomb that was powerful enough to kill any demon below the seventh rank.

"At your current level, these things should be useless to you—"

"it works."

Su Wuchen: "Very useful."

Zhao Qingluo rolled her eyes at Su Wuchen, making it seem as if she wouldn't agree.

"How much do you want?"

"The more the better."

"OK."

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhao Qingluo immediately summoned officials from the Ministry of War and ordered them to arrange the bombing.

After the official left, Zhao Qingluo smiled and said, "You're not going to turn around and leave again this time, are you?"

That was what Su Wuchen was thinking, but the Heavenly Prison Beast cheerfully said, "We'll stay for a few days."

"Um?"

Su Wuchen looked over, and the Heavenly Prison Beast gave him a wink.

Zhao Qingluo was immediately overjoyed and ordered a feast to be prepared.

"Then stay a few more days, and I'll treat you well."

"No need to entertain me, and no need to entertain him either—"

The Heavenly Prison Beast chuckled, got up, and beckoned Zhu Kui to leave, saying, "You just take good care of him. We won't disturb your time together."

Su Wuchen raised an eyebrow and glared at him, "Nonsense."

The Heavenly Prison Beast cackled, thrust its butt forward with a swagger, and left with Zhu Kui.

Damn it!

Su Wuchen's lips twitched speechlessly. How did this guy get so hot?

When she turned back to look at Zhao Qingluo, a slight blush appeared on her face.

"This guy has a fever."

"----And you?"

Su Wuchen stayed in the capital of Qin for a week. During this week, Zhao Qingluo treated him with the utmost hospitality, allowing Su Wuchen to fully experience the riches and luxuries of the world.

As soon as he opens his mouth, everything will be delivered to him instantly.

Even Zhao Qingluo was no exception.

"Why not stay in Qin?"

"Feel sorry."

Su Wuchen rejected Zhao Qingluo once again, saying, "My ambitions lie elsewhere."

Su Wuchen had absolutely no interest in online dating or anything like that.

Heaven knows what kind of burly man was behind Zhao Qingluo's stunningly beautiful face.

Stay in Qin, develop Qin, and live happily ever after?

joke.

He's aiming to complete the game in one life.

On the eighth day, Su Wuchen left the Qin Kingdom, accompanied by Zhao Qingluo.

then.
