Qin Shujian didn't feel anything as he sat in the carriage.
Until today …
He was no longer a novice and had a certain understanding of the various True Dominion.
The Blue River True Dominion was close to the Liang Mountain True Dominion.
If he hadn't broken the shackles and become a Dominion Lord, the Starry Brilliance Ordinary Dominion would have been merged into the Blue River True Dominion and become a part of it.
It could be said that …
His advancement had actually cut off the interests of the various sects in the Blue River True Dominion.
The carriage moved forward slowly.
Qin Shujian felt as if something had been removed from his body, causing his Quintessential Essence to weaken significantly.
This sudden feeling …
It made one feel weak for a moment.
But it was very fast …
The surging Quintessential Essence of the seventh-stage True Martial Realm immediately expelled this weakness.
When he looked at his attributes again …
The enhancement of the Liang Mountain True Dominion had been removed.
Only the seventh-stage True Martial Realm was left.
"Blue River True Dominion!"
Qin Shujian lifted the curtain slightly and looked at the scenery outside.
To be honest …
This was his first time leaving the Liang Mountain True Dominion.
However, when he entered the Blue River True Dominion, Qin Shujian realized that he hadn't received any notifications.
Under normal circumstances …
Anyone who stepped into the sphere of influence of others would most likely receive a warning.
He hadn't received any notifications yet.
Either he had triggered that extremely small probability.
Or the Blue River True Dominion wasn't unified and the area he was in didn't belong to the sphere of influence of any sect in the Blue River True Dominion.
Not long after …
Qin Shujian sensed several auras gathering in front of him.
Probably …
They were at the True Martial Realm but definitely not at the Physical Aura Realm.
As expected …
The caravan moved forward for a few minutes before suddenly stopping.
Outside …
A few people wearing the Gold Sun Sect's uniform appeared in front of the Carrier Trading Company.
Li Chongshi stepped forward and cupped his hands. "I'm Li Chongwen, Deacon of the Carrier Trading Company. Are you a friend of the Gold Sun Sect?"
"Yes!"
The leader of the Golden-sun Sect, a middle-aged man, handed a token to the other party.
After checking it carefully, Li Chongshi returned the token and said with a smile, "Elder Ding Ziqiu from the Gold Sun Sect. I apologize for my rudeness. May I know how to address the rest of you?"
"Deacon Li, you're too polite." Ding Ziqiu chuckled, then pointed to the others and introduced, "This is my sect's Successor Disciples, Du Yu, Cai Yun, and Zhao Xiuzhi."
Li Chongshi was shocked, and then he said enthusiastically, "You are the successor disciple of the Golden-sun Sect. You are indeed a dragon among men. I admire you."
"Deacon Li, you flatter me."
Du Yu, the successor disciple of the Gold Sun Sect, politely returned the greeting.
As for the other two, their attitudes were more or less the same.
However, unlike Du Yu and Cai Yun, Zhao Xiuzhi was a delicate and pretty girl.
Li Chongshi also took a few more glances before shifting his gaze away.
Subsequently.
He then invited them into the group.
Ding Ziqiu frowned when he saw the traces of weapons in the caravan. He said in a low voice, "Deacon Li, your journey here has not been smooth. Someone even dares to intercept the goods of the Carrier Trading Company!"
"Wealth moves the heart!" Li Chongshi shook his head.
"I wonder who did it."
"I'm not sure. Five unfamiliar Inner Energy Stage experts. I still need to go back and investigate their backgrounds."
"Five Inner Energy Stage experts!"
Ding Ziqiu's pupils constricted, and he was shocked.
Even he would not be able to match up to such strength.
Although the Golden-sun Sect had sent four True Martial Realm experts this time, other than him, the other three were only at the first level of the True Martial Realm. This escort mission was more of a training exercise.
If there were really five Inner Energy Stage experts attacking, he would have to take his men and leave first.
Immediately.
Ding Ziqiu cupped his hands solemnly. "May I know which Outer Energy Stage expert is from your trading company? Why don't I pay a visit?"
Only a Outer Energy Stage expert could defeat five Inner Energy Stage experts.
As for Outer Energy Stage experts …
They were rare experts in the True Dominion.
Even the Golden-sun Sect only had a few Outer Energy Stage experts.
Ding Ziqiu was not the only one.
Even Du Yu and the others had grave expressions on their faces.
"There are no Outer Energy Stage experts following the caravan. Please get on the carriage first. If you have any questions on the road, I will answer them!"
Hearing this.
Ding Ziqiu and the others could only suppress their doubts.
Then, they saw the Golden-sun Sect logo hanging beside the banner of the Carrier Trading Company.
As for Qin Shujian …
When the people from the Golden-sun Sect arrived, he did not come out of the carriage to meet them.
As for Li Chongshi, he did not dare disturb them rashly.
After all, it was impossible for a Outer Energy Stage expert not to know what was going on outside. Since the other party did not appear, it was obvious that he did not want to show himself.
If he acted on his own accord, it might backfire.
Needless to say …
The Golden-sun Sect was indeed the top sect of the Blue River True Dominion. Anyone who wanted to rob the caravan could not help but retreat when they saw the logo of the Golden-sun Sect.
In the carriage …
Ding Ziqiu and Li Chongshi sat facing each other.
Although the space was not very spacious, it was more than enough to accommodate the two of them.
Li Chongshi poured a cup of tea for the other party. Then, he extended his hand and said politely, "Elder Ding, please have some tea."
"Thank you."
Ding Ziqiu picked up the teacup and thanked him.
Then, the two of them did not speak. Instead, they took a sip of tea and fell into silence.
After a while …
When he saw that Ding Ziqiu was gradually unable to restrain himself, Li Chongshi smiled faintly and said, "Elder Ding, you must be very curious as to why the caravan remained intact after being attacked by five Inner Energy Stage experts."
"Since Deacon Li already knows, why are you deliberately mystifying things?"
"It's very simple. The person from the Yuan Sect made a move."
"Yuan Sect?"
Ding Ziqiu was puzzled at first, but he quickly reacted. The hand holding the teacup tightened as he stared at Li Chongshi. "You are talking about the Liang Mountain Protectorate Lord!"
"That's right."
"No wonder." Ding Ziqiu suppressed the shock in his heart and felt that it was natural.
If he had encountered an expert who was comparable to a Outer Energy Stage expert or even a peak True Martial Stage expert in his own True Dominion …
Such an existence …
Dealing with a few Inner Energy Stage experts would not be a big problem.
After a long time, Ding Ziqiu sighed and said, "That Protectorate Lord Qin is really lucky. No one has broken the shackles for so many years. I did not expect …"
However, he did not finish his sentence.
Li Chongshi's expression changed drastically as he hurriedly shouted in a low voice, "Elder Ding, be careful with your words!"
When he saw the puzzled expression on Ding Ziqiu's face, he immediately lowered his voice and said, "Sect Master Qin is currently traveling with the caravan and resting in another carriage."
This was a simple reply.
Ding Ziqiu's expression changed.
It was a taboo to talk about an expert behind his back.
Soon, he came back to his senses and his expression gradually returned to normal.
A Protectorate Lord was indeed powerful.
However, that was because he had cultivated for a long time or because he was in the True Dominion.
The former was because every Protectorate Lord was an extremely talented individual who would definitely reach the peak of the True Dominion after a long time.
The latter was needless to say.
However, Ding Ziqiu did not forget that this was not the Liang Mountain True Dominion.
In the Blue River True Dominion, a Protectorate Lord of another True Dominion was merely a slightly more powerful True Martial Realm expert.
Furthermore, he had only become a Protectorate Lord a few days ago.
No matter how talented he was …
Ding Ziqiu did not believe that he could go very far in the True Martial Realm.
Li Chongshi dipped his hand into the tea and wrote two faint words on the coffee table.
Physical Invulnerability!
Ding Ziqiu, who had already returned to normal, suddenly changed his expression again.
He knew very well.
What did the two words Li Chongshi had written mean? Who was he referring to?
However, he could not figure it out.
How could a person who had only been in the True Martial Realm for about two months become a Physical Invulnerability Realm expert?
One had to know.
One had to be at least at the seventh stage of the True Martial Realm to cultivate to the Physical Invulnerability Realm.
Ding Ziqiu looked at Li Chongshi's expression. He did not seem to be boasting and there was no need for him to lie about this.
Instantly.
His expression changed a few more times.
Until now.
Ding Ziqiu finally understood why Li Chongshi had interrupted him just now.
The perception of a Physical Invulnerability Realm expert had already reached an extremely profound level.
Their conversation in the carriage might not have been able to escape the other party's ears.
After a long while.
Ding Ziqiu took a deep breath and said, "I would like to meet Sect Master Qin. I wonder if Deacon Li could introduce me to him."
"I can pass the message on your behalf. However, whether Sect Master Qin is willing to meet is not up to me."
"I understand."
Ding Ziqiu nodded.
More than half a day passed.
The caravan was resting in the wilderness. Ding Ziqiu and Li Chongshi left the carriage. Finally, Li Chongshi came to Qin Shujian's carriage. He leaned close to the curtain and whispered, "Is Sect Master Qin here?"
"Deacon Li, feel free to speak your mind."
"Elder Ding Ziqiu of the Golden-sun Sect heard that Sect Master Qin was here. I would like to pay you a visit. I wonder if Sect Master would be willing to meet me?"
"I'm currently practicing my cultivation method and can't get away for the time being. Let's talk about it later."
"Then, I won't disturb Sect Master Qin any longer."
Li Chongshi's expression froze. However, he soon returned to normal. He cupped his hands at the curtain and turned to leave.
Seeing this, Ding Ziqiu's expression darkened a little.
In the carriage.
Qin Shujian was tasting tea.
There was a lot of clear water stored in it. With his profound cultivation, it was not difficult for him to boil water with his True Essence.
As for the cultivation he mentioned, it was just an excuse to fool Li Chongshi.
Just as Ding Ziqiu had thought.
A physical invulnerability expert could hear the sound of mosquitoes and flies within three miles.
Their conversation in the carriage could not escape Qin Shujian's ears.
Let's not talk about Ding Ziqiu's slip of the tongue.
If an ordinary Elder of the Golden-sun Sect like him could meet the Domain Lord of Mount Liang whenever he wanted to, then the Domain Lord of the Golden-sun Sect would be too worthless.
Therefore.
Qin Shujian directly sent Li Chongshi away, indirectly rejecting the other party's request.
An hour of rest passed.
The caravan continued to move forward.
Qin Shujian also put down the teacup in his hand. He closed his eyes and began to cultivate.
Both the Roaring Flame Art and the Ocean Returning Art had reached the tenth tier of the Basic Realm. What he needed to do now was to break through to the Zhenwu Chapter.
As for the source of life.
It had been increasing over the past few days.
However, it still needed some time to reach the eighteenth tier of the Origin Canon.
