Chapter 150 Loyal Heroic Tablet, Incense Fire Divine Sect
Uncle Master...
The Ci Yun Temple indeed has many Taoists who wander outside, but coming back at this critical juncture, I'm afraid it's greatly connected to the "Immortal Elixir" and the "Incense Burner," and it's quite possible that they are the masterminds behind everything.
If we wait for them to return, grabbing the incense burner will become an extra hassle, and it's not impossible that the incense burner could be taken away directly.
We can't delay any longer.
We must take this opportunity while Ci Yun Temple is unattended.
"Thousand Captain Li is right,"
Chen Sansi didn't forget to respond, "I've also been there twice, the old Taoist only spoke of grand but empty things."
"Exactly, that's what I said."
Li Qianzong continued to talk about other recent events.
For example, the Witch God Sect is causing a stir, with various sects becoming increasingly agitated and beginning to organize search teams privately to look for hiding spots of the sect followers. They even curse the Liangzhou Army as useless and the like.
Among them, Manor Master Wen Zhi of Moon Splitting Mountain Villa lost two of his beloved disciples and has been patrolling all over the place like a madman, swearing to the heavens that he will expose the Witch God Sect Followers no matter what.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore."
Chen Sansi said his goodbyes, "I still have some matters to attend to."
"Go ahead."
Li Qianzong joked, "General Chen, your military achievements this time are impressive. It's hard to say about your merit, but at the very least you should be promoted from Fifth Rank and at the very least become an Assistant General in the army. The next time I see you, I'll have to address you as Vice General Chen."
"I hope so, auspicious words from Thousand Captain Li."
Chen Sansi said with a fist salute, "Let's gather the brothers we know sometime soon, I'll treat everyone at the Immortal Crane Tower."
"Great, we'll definitely take the chance to feast at your expense then!"
"See you then! See you then!"
After dealing with the military affairs, it was nearing midnight.
When Chen Sansi returned to his bedroom, he saw Sister Lan breastfeeding the child, and there seemed to be no room for him on the bed because Yunxi was also sleeping in this room, apparently because Sister Lan was worried she would get scared.
"Daddy."
Chen Yunxi called out.
It's over a month's journey from Ming State to Liangzhou.
Having spent a month together, they had grown quite familiar with each other.
"Alright, then Yunxi can stay here and accompany your mother and brother,"
Chen Sansi said, "You can go back to your own room after a while. I'll be staying in the backyard for the time being."
It was convenient for him to do some things.
"Okay."
Chen Yunxi nodded emphatically.
Once in the backyard, Chen Sansi took a bath with the help of Si Qin, changed into clean clothes, then lay on the bed to rest while taking out the "Bead."
This object could produce an unknown "Mystical Energy" that could enhance formations, so he temporarily named it "Xuanzhu."
On the journey there were always too many people and too much attention.
Only now did Chen Sansi have the opportunity to study it in detail.
It's worth mentioning that since the Xuanzhu came into his possession, the Mystical Energy contained within began to increase continuously, from a weak stream at first to a small clump of white smoke now, which seemed to be still increasing gradually. He did not know the reason behind this.
Chen Sansi held the Xuanzhu in his hand, closed his eyes, and tried to sense in the same state as when he was cultivating the Sword Qi Skill. Before long, he established a special connection with the Xuanzhu, and could then manipulate the "Energy" inside to enhance himself. However, it seemed to be of no use as it did not enhance combat power for a single person. He also tried to use the Xuanzhu's energy to cultivate the Sword Qi Skill, but that too failed. It seemed it could only be useful for army formations.
Even so, it was absolutely a treasure!
Or rather, it might be useless for a mere Martial Artist, but it was a supreme treasure for a commander.
The strongest battle of the Red Eyebrow Army was won thanks to the Xuanzhu, which broke through the Enemy Army. It was said that the combat power demonstrated even surpassed that of the Eight Camps. It's worth noting the Red Eyebrow Army was established for less than a year, and even most of the High Realm Martial Artists were gathered from various sects.
Furthermore, for some unknown reason, the energy stored in the Xuanzhu began to decrease, leading to a substantial weakening of the Red Eyebrow Army's combat effectiveness. Even so, his troop still struggled outside Meishan Prefecture. If he could accumulate enough Mystical Energy and then use it in one battle, he couldn't imagine the fighting power it would unleash.
"Just don't know how to accumulate it..."@@novelbin@@
"It seems that the types of Mystical Energy are plentiful between heaven and earth, and we still know too little of it."
"Well, no need to use it for now, since it's slowly increasing. It's better to save it."
"As for the Heavenly Book..."
Chen Sansi planned to hand it over to Mr. Hou in a couple of days, to avoid being questioned again, which was annoying enough.
With these thoughts, he began to meditate, waiting until after everyone had fallen into a deep sleep before getting up quietly, armed himself and headed straight for Ci Yun Temple.
There was no time to lose!
The benefits of the Sword Qi Skill were too significant.
This was still only entry-level; if he achieved even minor mastery, there should be no fear even when facing High Realm experts.
Spirit Mist Mountain was silent as death.
There were no patrolling disciples in Ci Yun Temple at night either.
Chen Sansi had long ago rehearsed the infiltration route in his mind countless times, and he encountered no obstacles. With the help of Concealing Breath and Hiding and Sword Qi Skill, he was confident he wasn't exposed and smoothly made his way inside the main hall.
Looking at the incense burner shrouded in Purple Energy.
Once again, he checked to make sure no one was following, then he slowly approached.
Initially planning to simply pick it up and run, he noticed as he neared that there was a trace of red glow at the bottom of the incense burner—this was... blood!
Chen Sansi became alert.

This blood glow was in a very peculiar position, surely the work of someone with intent. And it seemed very likely to be some sort of tracking mechanism, to prevent the object from being stolen.
What do you think?
