"A Real Martial Arts Realm attack?"
Qin Shujian was also a little surprised.
With the reputation of the Carrier Trading Company, anyone who dared to go against them had to consider whether they could withstand their anger.
However, the other party dared to do so.
Either the goods this time were very profitable.
Or they had a grudge against the Trading Company.
However, to Qin Shujian, it didn't matter what the reason was as long as the other party didn't do anything in the Real Domain of Mount Liang. After all, he had to keep his promise.
"Sect Master Qin, please wait a moment. I'll ask Guest Elder Gan to come out."
After entering the caravan, Li Chongshi went to Gan Zhongming's carriage, lifted a corner of the curtain, and whispered something.
Qin Shujian didn't listen carefully, nor did he have the habit of eavesdropping.
Then.
An old man came down from the carriage, accompanied by Li Chongshi, and came to Qin Shujian. He cupped his hands and said politely, "I'm Gan Zhongming. Greetings to Sect Master Qin and Elders of the Yuan Sect!"
"I've heard a lot about you!"
Qin Shujian replied politely.
Zeng Hong and the others also cupped their hands slightly in return.
In the face of a True Martial Realm expert, he still had to give him face.
After Gan Zhongming finished speaking, he glanced at the four of them unnoticeably.
With his experienced eyes, as long as the difference in their realms wasn't too big, he could tell at a glance how strong they were.
Just as Li Chongshi had said.
In his eyes, Zeng Hong and the other elders of the Yuan Sect were probably at the first level of the Real Martial Arts Realm.
Only Sect Master Qin in front of him.
He couldn't see the bottom of him.
It was as if there was a layer of fog, or as if there was a bottomless abyss behind the fog. He couldn't guess the depth at all.
Seeing this.
Gan Zhongming was shocked again.
The person who could do this either had amazing concealment skills or was far stronger than him.
However, he thought of the other party's status as a Territorial Lord.
He was more inclined to the latter.
Li Chongshi interrupted, "It's dusty outside. Sect Master Qin and the others, please enter the carriage to rest!"
While speaking.
He had already signaled with his eyes to lift the curtain of one of the carriages.
Qin Shujian didn't refuse. After saying politely, he entered the carriage directly.
After entering the carriage.
Only then did he realize that although the carriage was not big and could only accommodate three or four people, the facilities inside were complete.
A short, square tea table was placed in the middle of the room. A kettle was placed on top of it, and steam was still coming out of it. Other than that, there were teacups, tea sets, and so on.
Even fruits and snacks were prepared.
Not long after Qin Shujian entered the carriage, he closed his eyes and rested.
This time, he was following the caravan to the Mystic Void True Domain.
If he encountered any trouble, he would not sit back and do nothing due to his relationship with the Cheng Yun Trading Company.
However, he didn't encounter any trouble.
Qin Shujian didn't want to waste too much time dealing with them.
The recent him.
He felt like he was addicted to cultivation.
Regardless of whether it was the Raging Flame Technique or the Ocean Origin Returning Technique, both of them had been cultivated to the 10th stage of the Basic Martial Realm. After that would be the True Martial Chapter.
According to Qin Shujian's hunch.
In about ten days to half a month, he should be able to break through.
If he cultivated diligently, he might be able to break through earlier.
As for his main cultivation of the Origin Classic, it had already been deduced to the 17th stage. Because this cultivation technique could only rely on the source of life to pave the way forward, there was no longer any value in cultivating it.
As for the 17th stage of the Origin Classic, it had also brought about huge changes.
The 17th stage of the Origin Classic (High-grade True Level): Level 19 Longevity Extension, Level 15 Indestructible Body, Level 2 Astral-Penetrating Quintessential Essence, Level 1 Physical Invulnerability
The words "Internal Invulnerability" had already been replaced by "Physical Invulnerability".
However, Qin Shujian realized that.
This didn't mean that the effect of Internal Invulnerability had completely disappeared. Instead, as long as he wanted to, he could convert Physical Invulnerability to Internal Invulnerability at any time.
The conversion between the two was already very easy for an expert at the seventh stage of the True Martial Realm.
Furthermore …
Physical Invulnerability was even more powerful than Internal Invulnerability.
According to Qin Shujian's own estimation.
Even if he walked out of the True Martial Realm of the Liang Mountain True Domain, he could still be considered an expert in other True Martial Realm.
The caravan moved forward slowly.
With Qin Shujian, the Protectorate Lord, holding the fort this time, Li Chongshi and Gan Zhongming felt much more at ease.
It wouldn't be easy to attack a Protectorate Lord of their own True Domain.
The Protectorate Lords of all time.
They were almost invincible in their own True Domains.
Even if they weren't 100% invincible.
This also proved how powerful a Protectorate Lord was.
As for the other guards in the caravan, although they didn't know Qin Shujian's identity, they calmed down when they learned that four True Martial Realm experts had joined the caravan.
In a secluded mountain forest …
More than 100 people were wearing black face masks that only revealed their eyes and had long sabers at their waists.
Their leader.
A few of them had white, red, yellow, black, and green faces.
"This is the True Domain of the Liang Mountain. The Origin Sect has a good relationship with the Carrier Fortune Trading Company. We have to end this quickly. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if we attract the attention of the Protectorate Lord."
The man with the white face spoke in a low voice.
The man with the black face replied, "What if the Protectorate Lord finds out?"
"Retreat. He is nothing if he leaves the True Domain of the Liang Mountain!"
Upon hearing this …
The scene suddenly quieted down.
No one objected to this statement.
The Protectorate Lord was indeed powerful. However, one had to know where and who the other party was.
A newly promoted Protectorate Lord was at most at the first or second stage of the True Martial Realm. It was impossible for him to even reach the second stage of the True Martial Realm. If he left the True Domain with such strength, he would die.
About half an hour later …
A masked man leaped over from afar and landed in front of them. He knelt down on one knee, cupped his fists, and said, "My lords, the Carrier Fortune Trading Company's team is less than five kilometers away from us."
"Return to the team!" The man with the white face waved his hand. The masked man stood up immediately and returned to the team.
Then …
The man with the white face said in a low voice, "Remember, don't leave anyone alive this time. Whoever obtains the item must leave the Liang Mountain Ordinary Domain immediately and gather at the designated location."
"Yes!"
"Let's go!"
The masked men, led by the man with the five-colored face, rushed out like a flood.
On the other side, the Carrier Fortune Trading Company's team was still moving forward.
In the carriage …
Qin Shujian exited his cultivation state and frowned. His eyes flickered as he looked at the water on the tea table, which was still emitting faint steam.
Just a moment ago …
He had sensed danger approaching.
When he thought about what had happened to the Carrier Fortune Trading Company, he had a rough idea of what was going on.
However …
Qin Shujian did not leave the carriage either.
It would be good if Ceng Hong, Gan Zhongming, and the others could deal with the intruders. If they could not, he would find another opportunity to strike.
As for leaving the Origin Sect …
Qin Shujian did not want to be too conspicuous.
"Stop!"
A low voice was heard in the carriage. The caravan stopped immediately.
Li Chongshi immediately came to the front of the carriage and asked, "Guest Elder Gan, what happened?"
"This old man has a feeling. I'm afraid that group of thieves is here again!"
"Understood!"
Li Chongshi was shocked. However, he did not show any signs of panic. He turned around and shouted, "Everyone, be alert! Be careful of the enemy!"
As soon as he finished speaking …
The caravan guards immediately gathered the goods and carriages together. Then, they drew their swords and sabers and formed a circle with their backs facing each other.
Ceng Hong and the others also walked out of the carriage.
Just as Li Chongshi was about to speak, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. Together with Ceng Hong and the others, his gaze fell on a certain direction.
Over there …
A powerful aura was approaching.
If Gan Zhongming was at the third level of the True Martial Realm and had a stronger sense of perception, then Li Chongshi, as the deacon of the caravan, was at the True Martial Realm.
Although he had just entered the True Martial Realm, he had already crossed the threshold.
Li Chongshi could sense it.
So could Ceng Hong and the others.
When they saw that there was no movement in the carriage where Qin Shujian was, they were reassured.
The Sect Master did not move.
This meant that the intruders were not strong enough.
In less than two to three minutes, a large number of masked men rushed over from all directions and attacked the caravan without hesitation.
Li Chongshi did not need to say anything.
Seeing that the masked men were coming, the caravan guards immediately went forward.
Saber light and sword shadows were unleashed in an instant.
Boom!
Five terrifying auras exploded. Five people flew over from afar. Before they arrived, their powerful attacks had already enveloped Li Chongshi and the others.
"How dare you!" A furious voice rang out from within the carriage. Then, Gan Zhongming shot out from within, heading straight for one of the figures.
Boom!
In an instant, the two of them had completely exchanged blows.
On the other side …
Li Chongshi, Ceng Hong, and the others did not hesitate. They immediately used their strongest techniques and attacked one of the masked men.
"He he … How dare you attack me when you're only at the first level of the True Martial Realm!" A cold voice came from behind the masked man. Then, black Quintessential Essence exploded and a palm flew toward Qiu Ping.
Qiu Ping was not afraid at all. A fiery-red Quintessential Essence condensed in his palm. A scorching aura instantly filled the air as he fought with the masked man.
It was a mortal-level superior-grade martial technique — Raging Fire Palm.
This was one of the two mortal-level superior-grade martial techniques that Qin Shujian had placed in the library.
As an Elder, Qiu Ping had the right to enter the library.
So, he took a liking to this martial technique at first glance.
After half a month of practice, he had almost reached the next level, although he had not mastered it yet.
Bang!
The two palms collided, and a fierce light burst.
While Qiu Ping was retreating, the masked man was still chasing him.
It was a chaotic battle.
It had completely unfolded.
Inside the carriage.
Qin Shujian tasted tea. Even without using his eyes, he only knew what was happening outside. The perception of someone at the seventh level of the True Martial Realm was extremely powerful.
But after a while, he shook his head, grabbed Qian Shanxue, and left the carriage.
Outside.
Li Chongshi and the others were retreating.
Although they were at the first level of the True Martial Realm, the enemy was obviously above the third level. The two sides were not at the same level at all.
The reason why they were not defeated yet …
It was because they were all at the same level of the True Martial Realm.
According to Qin Shujian's estimation …
Two or three more minutes had passed, and someone would have been defeated.
