"The twelve golden papers, when combined, serve as a guide to locate the Immortal Martial Treasure Vault."

"This rumor had circulated for three hundred years, and back then, it caused a massive upheaval. Not only did martial arts experts at the Innate Realm participate, but there were also beings at the Enlightenment level of the Immortal Cultivation Method who got involved, resulting in countless deaths and injuries."

*Given their temperaments, knowing his quest for the golden papers, it was hard to guarantee they wouldn’t develop other intentions.*

Bai Ziyue quickly considered his options and replied, "This talisman is called the Nine Bends Thunder Talisman. In truth, it was acquired by chance by me, and I only managed to obtain about thirty pieces altogether.

After yesterday’s expenditure, not many are left."

With that, he sighed, displaying a somewhat regretful look.

"Did this opportunity come along with Fellow Daoist Bai’s Talisman-Making Skill?"

Pei Yuanwu’s eyes glinted as he asked.

He believed Bai Ziyue’s claim somewhat about acquiring the talisman by chance.

After all, he knew Bai Ziyue’s Immortal Technique Realm was only at the Fifth Layer of Qi Cultivation.

At such a level, crafting a Nine Bends Thunder Talisman with such powerful force, comparable to the full-strength strike of someone at the Seventh Layer of Qi Cultivation, was nearly impossible.

It was highly likely that it was crafted by a predecessor.

Bai Ziyue simply smiled without speaking.

*He vaguely sensed the deeper meaning within Pei Yuanwu’s words.*

*It seemed his performance yesterday had indeed caught the attention of someone as keen as Pei Yuanwu.*

"So, as long as Fellow Daoist Bai enhances his strength in the future and improves his talisman-making skills, he could continue to craft this Nine Bends Thunder Talisman?

Will Fellow Daoist Bai be willing to provide us each with one of the remaining talismans?

I’m willing to pay a high price."

Li Xun looked at Bai Ziyue with anticipation.

*He always knew his own strength was inadequate and naturally hoped he could have a powerful talisman like the Nine Bends Thunder Talisman by his side for protection.*

"I understand Fellow Daoist Li’s thoughts. However, by the time I can craft talismans myself, it might be ten or twenty years later. But, considering Fellow Daoist Li was willing to exchange the Purple Qi Divine Observation Technique with me back then, I’m naturally willing to give you a few."

Bai Ziyue chuckled lightly, not refusing.

...

Watching Li Xun and Pei Yuanwu leave, Bai Ziyue couldn’t help but frown slightly.

*From Pei Yuanwu’s words, he vaguely felt that the other had some alternative thoughts.*

"I hope I’m just overthinking. Otherwise, who is the eagle and who is the prey is still uncertain."

With his mind settled, Bai Ziyue turned and returned to his residence.

By the afternoon, there were significantly fewer people coming to deliver gifts and congratulations.

But it wasn’t none; most of them were acquaintances of Bai Ziyue like Water Hall Guardian Wang Peng, senior brother Tang Zhanfei, Pei Tugou, and some other familiar faces.

Among them, Wang Peng and Tang Zhanfei arrived together.

Both were injured in the previous battle with the Nine Seals Sect, one’s left hand and the other’s right, but fortunately, the injuries weren’t serious and didn’t greatly impact them.

The shared experience gave them a sense of camaraderie.

"By the way, I heard the Government Office, known as the most dangerous place in Wujiang County, is described as the Dragon’s Den and Tiger’s Lair. I’m curious about the reason behind this?"

In conversation, Bai Ziyue asked in a seemingly casual manner.

"I know a bit about that. Five years ago, a first-class expert, due to a personal vendetta, broke into the Government Office to assassinate the County Magistrate, Lord Chen, at the time.

The next day, the body of this first-class expert was hung in the Meridian Gate Plaza."

Tang Zhanfei laughed and explained.

"This person was simply too arrogant. The Government Office is a critical area always guarded by a first-class expert. This expert, named Yang Zhen, is said to be even stronger than our Sunburst Gang’s leader.

Not to mention, the Government Office is constantly guarded by soldiers.

Moreover, not far from the Government Office is the Immortal Ascension Pavilion. Within it live immortal cultivators, whose techniques are mysterious and powerful, making it nearly impossible to defend against.

That first-class expert entering such a stronghold was nothing short of a death wish, wasn’t it?"

Wang Peng immediately added.

"Is there an Innate warrior within the Government Office?"

Bai Ziyue asked with a serious expression.

"An Innate in martial arts is such an extraordinary existence. How could they be confined to a small place like our Wujiang County?

Let alone the Government Office, even within the entire Wujiang County, there’s probably not an Innate-level existence."

Wang Peng said as he looked at Bai Ziyue with some curiosity, and asked, "Why are you asking this?"

"Just purely out of curiosity."

Bai Ziyue gave an evasive answer, secretly relieved.

For him, this was actually good news.

After abandoning plans to start with Li Xun and Pei Yuanwu to seize the twelfth golden paper, his options became limited.

His first thought was of robbery.

However, the Government Office, known as the Dragon’s Den and Tiger’s Lair, had a reputation that any strong person who broke in would hardly come out unscathed.

Bai Ziyue, upon first hearing this, had also been uneasy.

*With trepidation in his heart, he had the previous inquiry.* ƒreewebɳovel.com

*Upon learning that there was no one at the Innate level within the Government Office, he let out a long sigh of relief.*

...

The night was deep, and the already dim half-moon was obscured by clouds, making the sky even darker.

Bai Ziyue, clad in black, silently leaped from his room, disappearing in a few bounds.

The cool night, coupled with the recent effects of the war between the Sunburst Gang and the Nine Seals Sect, had made Wujiang County, once bustling, seem rather cold and desolate.

Bai Ziyue lightly trod on air, his figure graceful and agile, moving effortlessly as if a mighty eagle soaring through the sky.

One step, two steps, three steps...

With almost every step he took, his figure shot out, quickly crossing three to four zhang distances.

In a blink, after taking a hundred steps, Bai Ziyue finally descended from the air, lightly touching a rooftop and leapt again...

"The Hundred-Step Wave-Treading Skill at the Perfection Level was indeed astounding in Speed, making me feel like I’m riding the wind."

*Bai Ziyue thought to himself, but he had already determined the direction, and gracefully landed under the shadow of a large tree.*

Not far away was the Government Office.

With a flip of his hand, a golden paper appeared in his grasp.

After a slight sensation, confirming the twelfth golden paper was indeed deep within the office, a flash of determination crossed his eyes.

There was only one golden paper left out of the twelve.

*Naturally, he was unwilling to give up.*

*Even if the Government Office was nothing short of a dragon’s den, and even if there were boundless risks, he still had to give it a try.*

However, before advancing, a thought passed through Bai Ziyue’s mind.

In an instant, a cloth banner appeared in his hand.

It was the Soul-Gathering Banner!

He reached out and lightly tapped on the Soul-Gathering Banner.

In that instant, the surrounding Yin Qi became dense, and ghastly and terrifying Yin Souls emanated around him one after another.

"Go."

Bai Ziyue hesitated not, giving a command.

In a flash, a Main Soul transformed into a stream of light and shot into the Government Office.

Buzz!

Suddenly, a faint purple light burst forth.

The Main Soul hadn’t even leaped in before it rapidly returned.

"Indeed, it’s not that simple.

Within the Government Office, a warning array has been specifically set up.

Anything that crosses in would alert those inside.

No wonder a first-class expert was swiftly ambushed upon entry, unable to even flee."

*Bai Ziyue sighed inwardly, though his face remained calm.*

Inside Elder Kunyuan’s storage bag, Bai Ziyue had acquired a Jade Scroll Eye detailing the Array Dao True Understanding.

Within it was the description of this warning array, naturally including ways to break it.

"To infiltrate this warning array unnoticed, one’s aura must be completely concealed, or control Spiritual Power to broadly contact the surface of the array.

Eventually, one can seamlessly blend with it, creating an entry point."

*Array Dao True Understanding knowledge flashed through Bai Ziyue’s mind.*

He was quite confident in concealing his own aura, but to avoid any mishap, he opted for the other method.

He reached out and tapped the Soul-Gathering Banner once more.

In an instant, an endless flow of Yin Qi surged again.

He controlled it, slowly yet steadily dissipating it into the warning array.

Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!

The faint purple light floated in the air above the Government.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths...

Just after five breaths.

As if breaking through a thin membrane, the Yin Qi entered the Government.

Seeing this, a smile flashed in Bai Ziyue’s eyes, and he pulled on a mask to completely cover his face. He then lightly leapt up, seemingly weightless, soaring over three zhang high as he smoothly entered the Government Office.

Close behind him were more than ten Yin Souls.

Together, they transformed into beams of dark light, disappearing into the office.

"Go ahead, stay well hidden."

Bai Ziyue lightly gestured to the Yin Souls.

Immediately, these Yin Souls dispersed, scattering in all directions.

But Bai Ziyue’s goal was very clear, using the Hundred-Step Wave-Treading Skill once more, light as a swallow, he leapt towards a courtyard deep within.

Whish, whish...

The sound of wind whistled, as a group of guards just happened to walk along a corridor.

Bai Ziyue flew over their heads, and someone seemed to sense it, lifting their head involuntarily.

But even though he opened his eyes wide, he couldn’t make any discovery.

"What is it?"

Someone next to him asked.

"I don’t know why, but it felt like something flew overhead."

The person replied.

"Probably some kind of bird. Although our Government Office has a warning array, it has no effect on those with low power and weak Qi and Blood."

Nodding, the person didn’t think much of it and soon continued patrolling elsewhere with his companion.

"Somewhat alert."

Bai Ziyue muttered a bit, then his expression changed.
