A Forced Move, Borrowing Treasures for a Battle

After a long while.

Huanglong Zhenren returned, back to the edge of the East Sea.

This time, however, he wasn't alone; he had brought Chijingzi with him.

Returning to the site of their battle, Huanglong Zhenren immediately looked around, extending his divine sense, trying to find something.

But he was soon disappointed.

Nothing, nothing at all.

"Damn it, he didn't even leave me the corpses of the Yin Yang Twin Flood Dragons!"

Huanglong Zhenren cursed in frustration.

"Those Yin Yang Twin Flood Dragons had already achieved Primordial Unity Golden Immortal status. Their corpses would naturally be a great treasure. How could he possibly leave them behind?"

Beside him, Chijingzi was taking out one talisman after another from his sleeve.

"But I was the one who killed the Yin Yang Twin Flood Dragons!"

Huanglong Zhenren roared.

"You couldn't even defeat a Heavenly Immortal. What more is there to say?"

Chijingzi replied.

"He's not a Heavenly Immortal. He's already broken through to Mysterious Immortal!"

Huanglong Zhenren's face flushed red as he defended himself.

"So what? To a Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, what difference is there between a Heavenly Immortal and a Mysterious Immortal?"

Chijingzi waved his right hand, and the talismans scattered around them.

"You..."

"If he hadn't been wielding two Xiantian Lingbao, how could he have possibly been my opponent!"

"Did you find out who that person is yet?"

Huanglong Zhenren asked anxiously.

After escaping earlier, he had gone straight to Yunxiao Cave to find Chijingzi.

After all, the more closely related the target was to the diviner, the higher the success rate of Chijingzi's deductions.

Deducing from the site of the recent battle would surely reveal Lu Changsheng's identity.

Furthermore, what if Lu Changsheng hadn't left by the time he and Chijingzi arrived?

Although the possibility was extremely low, it wasn't impossible.

Now, that extremely low possibility had been completely extinguished, and he could only place his hopes on Chijingzi finding out the other party's identity.

"Don't rush me. I'm already doing it."

Chijingzi said, gathering spiritual power at his fingertips and pointing at several talismans in the sky.

One by one, the talismans ignited, and streams of golden light enveloped the surroundings.

Chijingzi also looked expectant.

He didn't actually care about Huanglong Zhenren. What he cared about were the Magic Treasures.

Those were two Xiantian Lingbao!

As long as he found out the person's identity, he would obtain two Xiantian Lingbao!

He could even sense the residual spiritual power fluctuations in the sky above.

This time, he would definitely find out the person's identity!

But as time went by, Huanglong Zhenren grew more and more impatient.

"Still no result?"

"Be quiet!"

Chijingzi roared.

Huanglong Zhenren was anxious, but wasn't he?

More than half of the deduction was complete, yet there was still no result.

This shouldn't be happening.

According to Huanglong Zhenren, the person had left this place no more than an hour ago.

With such a short time interval, how could he, a Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, not deduce any clues about a Mysterious Immortal?

Did that make any sense?

Seeing that the talismans were about to burn out, Chijingzi steeled himself.

He directly cut his finger and used his vital blood for the deduction.

Instantly, a touch of blood appeared on all the talismans.

But sometimes, you don't get what you give.

Just like Chijingzi's deduction, no matter the price he paid, he couldn't have found Lu Changsheng, who was protected by the System.

Finally, the talismans burned out, and a trace of blood appeared at the corner of Chijingzi's mouth.

"How is it?"

Huanglong Zhenren quickly asked.

"Still no result."

"Where exactly did you offend this person? Why is he targeting you like this?"

Chijingzi's question stumped Huanglong Zhenren.

Had he offended Lu Changsheng?

They had only met twice.

Last time at Lingganhu, he had indeed used Lu Changsheng, but in the end, Lu Changsheng still took the Xuanling Fruit.

As Huanglong Zhenren pondered, he saw Chijingzi turn to leave.

"Where are you going?"

"To Kunlun Mountain, to tell Master about this, and have Master investigate this person's identity."

"Absolutely not!"

Huanglong Zhenren quickly stopped Chijingzi.

Putting aside the matter of the Xuanling Fruit last time, let's talk about this time.

If Master found out that he hadn't obtained the Yin Yang Jiao Dan and had used up two talismans.

And the result was defeat at the hands of a Mysterious Immortal.

The consequences were unimaginable!

It wasn't impossible for him to be expelled from the Chan Sect.

After all, if the Jade Void Twelve Immortals were no match for a Mysterious Immortal, and this news spread, the Chan Sect's reputation would be ruined!

"Huanglong, do you know we don't have much time?"

"Now that the person is a Mysterious Immortal, you and I might still have a chance."

"Once he breaks through to Golden Immortal, or even Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, even if we find out his identity, you and I won't be able to defeat him!"

Chijingzi said.

It was still the same problem as before.

Even if Master found out this person's identity, he would definitely not act personally.

At that time, this matter would still have to be handled by him and Huanglong Zhenren.

In that case, defeating this person would likely yield two Xiantian Lingbao.

If they delayed any longer, the Xiantian Lingbao would be irrelevant to him.

The only problem was that if Master knew about this, Huanglong Zhenren would definitely be punished.

But what did Huanglong Zhenren's punishment have to do with him, Chijingzi?

After speaking, Chijingzi was about to set off.

But Huanglong Zhenren had no intention of letting Chijingzi leave.

"No, at least not now!"

"After I defeat Xuan Jun, I will inform Master."

Huanglong Zhenren thought of a plan that would satisfy both parties.

As long as he could defeat Xuan Jun, Master would deal with him leniently when he found out about this.

Chijingzi frowned and was about to speak.

"I know what you're thinking."

"The reason that person was able to quickly achieve Mysterious Immortal was due to the effect of the Xuanling Fruit."

"There are only a few decades until my battle with Xuan Jun. In this time, that person absolutely cannot break through to Golden Immortal!"

Huanglong Zhenren analyzed.

Chijingzi looked thoughtful.

Although Huanglong Zhenren's reasoning was sound, the Golden Immortal realm was not as easy to break through as True Immortal and Mysterious Immortal.

But would a cultivator with two Xiantian Lingbao be that simple?

"Senior Brother, don't forget, you also knew about the Xuanling Fruit matter."

"If Master really finds out about this, you don't know if Master will blame you for knowing but not reporting."

"Right?"

Chijingzi's face sank.

"Fine, as you say."

"After you fight Xuan Jun, regardless of the outcome, you must investigate this matter thoroughly with Master!"

"I'm returning to Yunxiao Cave first."

With that, Chijingzi prepared to leave.

"Brother!"

"What is it now? I can't even go back to my own dojo instead of Kunlun Mountain?"

Chijingzi was getting angry.

Huanglong Zhenren smiled.

"Of course you can go back to your dojo."

"I wanted to borrow the Yin Yang Mirror from you."

He had no other options.

The Yin Yang Jiao Dan was not in hand, and the talismans were all used up.

If he didn't prepare some means, his chances of winning against Xuan Jun would not be high.

But he had to win this battle to slightly quell his Master's anger when he found out about this.

Therefore, he could only ask Chijingzi to temporarily lend him a magic treasure.

"My battle with Xuan Jun concerns the prestige of the Chan Sect, please help me, Brother!"

Huanglong Zhenren began to guilt-trip Chijingzi.

"You can borrow the Yin Yang Mirror."

"But you'll have to trade it for Master's cultivation resources for the next thousand years."

Chijingzi wasn't buying it.

What did the outcome of the battle with Xuan Jun have to do with him?

If he wanted to borrow a magic treasure, he had to show corresponding "sincerity."

Huanglong Zhenren's face turned ugly.

A thousand years of cultivation resources, wasn't Chijingzi taking advantage of his predicament?

"If you're unwilling, you can try borrowing from someone else."

Chijingzi didn't give Huanglong Zhenren any time to think and turned to leave.

"Fine, I promise you!"

Huanglong Zhenren could only agree.

No matter what, he had to win the battle against Xuan Jun first.

After leaving the Yin Yang Mirror, Chijingzi left directly.

Huanglong Zhenren looked at the Yin Yang Mirror in his hand, veins bulging on his face.

All of this was thanks to Lu Changsheng!

The next time he saw Lu Changsheng, he would make him pay it all back, no matter the cost!
