Chen Luoyang came to the central hall of the Dragon Palace.
He was not in a hurry to walk in.
The Western Qin Emperor seemed to be at his lowest point, but a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. No one could be sure how much power he had left.
In such an important place, the Qin Emperor might have specially prepared special defensive restrictions to protect his movements and prevent others from disturbing him.
Therefore, Chen Luoyang did not directly step into the hall.
After thinking for a while, he turned his palm and a black shadow appeared.
The black shadow was indeed a rope that was rolled up.
With a thought from Chen Luoyang, golden runes emerged on the surface of the black rope, and at the same time, blue light flashed.
This Treasure Gathering Rope was the treasure that Elder Cheng He of the Xian Tian Palace used to plot against him in the Divine Land in the Mortal World.
The name Treasure Gathering Rope sounded polite, but in fact, it was very domineering and had a very unique spiritual power.
It was not good at binding people, but it was good at binding other treasures, and it could also suppress the connection between the target treasure and its original owner.
When Chen Luoyang was shrouded by this rope, he felt that the connection with his treasures was greatly weakened, and it was almost impossible to control these treasures.
Speaking of which, the real owner of this Treasure Gathering Rope was Cheng Yingtian of the Southern Chu Dynasty, who was also in Zhengyang City.
It was he who secretly lent the Treasure Gathering Rope to Cheng He of the Xian Tian Palace.
Chen Luoyang now recalled that when Cheng He came to the Mortal World and the Divine Land for the "Life" Heavenly Book, it was not necessarily for the Xian Tian Palace.
According to the description of Cheng He's life experience provided by the white jade bottle, he had a close relationship with Cheng Yingtian and subconsciously submitted to him.
Cheng Yingtian and the Southern Chu Dynasty behind him were the real objects of Cheng He's loyalty.
However, with Cheng Yingtian's awkward identity, it was still a question whether he was on the same side with the Southern Chu Dynasty.
After Chen Luoyang snatched the Treasure-gathering Rope from Cheng He and Cheng Yingtian, on his way back to the headquarters of the Ancient God in the secular world, and on his way from the headquarters of the Ancient God to Zhengyang City, the capital of the Western Qin, he had been secretly studying the treasure.
However, if he wanted to erase the traces left behind by Cheng Yingtian, it would not be possible in a short period of time.
Patriarch Blood River, Emperor Chu, and the others didn't dare to be disrespectful towards the gifts they gave to the 'Demon Lord'. The items they sent over were completely blank. Even if there were any marks on them, they would be intentionally erased before they were sent out.
However, the nature of this Treasure Gathering Rope was different. Cheng He was able to use this treasure with the help of its true owner, Cheng Yingtian.
Chen Luoyang's current cultivation realm was slightly lower than Cheng Yingtian's.
However, he had his own ways.
Ever since the black pot transformed into the white jade bottle, as long as Chen Luoyang was free, he would ponder over this thing.
Although it was still a little rushed, he had already gained a lot.
It was just that before he came to Zhengyang City, the dark golden nectar in the white jade bottle was almost empty.
As the saying goes, even the cleverest housewife can't cook a meal without rice. Chen Luoyang couldn't further verify his discoveries and conjectures.
Now, due to the great battle in Zhengyang City, he had accumulated quite a lot of dark golden nectar. Chen Luoyang could put some of his conjectures into practice and try them out.
As he concentrated, the dark golden splendor in his eyes grew denser and gradually condensed into a solid substance.
His seemingly solid gaze fell on the Treasure Gathering Rope.
Then, a nectar that seemed real and not illusory appeared out of thin air and appeared on the Treasure Gathering Rope.
Then, under Chen Luoyang's control, the dark golden nectar purified and erased the intent left behind by the former owner of the Treasure Gathering Rope, Cheng Yingtian.
Once he started, the dark golden nectar flowed away at a rapid pace.
Chen Luoyang didn't feel heartache. Instead, he felt astonished.
The first intent that was purified was only the golden radiance.
This was the cultivation of the Southern Chu imperial family's supreme skill, the Glory Chart.
Although Cheng Yingtian was a side family disciple, he was allowed to cultivate the Glory Chart and had outstanding attainments in it.
But after the Radiance was purified by the dark golden nectar, the martial intent in the Treasure Gathering Rope turned into an Eight Trigrams.
Chen Luoyang examined it and found that it was the [Innate Eight Trigrams], produced by the Xian Tian Palace's direct martial arts.
It seemed that apart from the Southern Chu's Glory Chart, Cheng Yingtian had also cultivated the Xian Tian Palace's supreme skill. Moreover, it was a legitimate direct martial art.
But this wasn't the end.
The reason the dark golden nectar consumed so much was because the Treasure Gathering Rope's previous owner's imprints were endless.
After the [Innate Eight Trigrams] faded away, traces of blood appeared again.
The tainted blood quickly converged into a torrential river of blood that flowed endlessly and billowed into the sky.
The dark golden nectar still purified it.
Chen Luoyang was rather surprised.
After carefully examining the intent contained in the Radiance, [Innate Eight Trigrams], and the blood river, he was sure that they were all the work of the same person.
It wasn't three different people who each left their mark in the Treasure Gathering Rope.
This Cheng Yingtian had the expertise of three schools, and he wasn't just dabbling in them, he had profound attainments in all of them.
Chen Luoyang had fought with the Southern Chu, Xian Tian Palace, and Blood River Clan's direct martial artists.
But he faintly felt that Cheng Yingtian would be the most outstanding no matter which one he chose.
In terms of the Glory Chart, Cheng Qiyuan and Cheng Huyuan were far from Cheng Yingtian.
This was something known to the world, so there was no problem.
But in terms of the Xian Tian Palace's [Innate Eight Trigrams], even Cheng He, the Xian Tian Palace's elder, couldn't compare to Cheng Yingtian.
And in terms of the Blood River Clan's foundation, the Blood Gu Village's Limitless Blood Sea was not comparable. But the Blood River Swordsman he first met in the Divine Land, his Blood River Sword Intent seemed to be inferior to the Blood River Sword Intent contained in the Treasure Gathering Rope.
This Cheng Yingtian was indeed worthy of his position as Southern Chu's number one among the new generation.
Just the tip of the iceberg had helped him secure a place among the Mortal Ten Greats.
But this guy hid so deeply, how could the others not find a trace?
Chen Luoyang murmured in his heart.
… I'm afraid it's really not easy to find.
I was able to uncover his secrets layer by layer because the dark golden nectar in the white jade bottle was truly marvelous.
Otherwise, although I could remove the mark left by the other, the result might be that when the outermost layer of Radiant Brilliance faded, the double mark of the [Heaven Eight Trigrams] and the Blood River would automatically burn away, and there would be no chance for it to be exposed in front of others.
The more Chen Luoyang studied, the more he could feel the subtlety of it.
The outermost layer of Radiant Brilliance and the innermost layer of the Blood River vaguely formed a balance of Yin and Yang, stabilized by the Eight Trigrams.
With the slightest disturbance, the balance would be destroyed, and everyone would be wiped out.
If not for the miraculous dark golden nectar, it was likely that even those with a higher cultivation than Cheng Yingtian would not be able to uncover the deeper secrets of the Treasure Gathering Rope.
The more fragile the balance was, the more stable Cheng Yingtian's cultivation was. The three great inheritances were interconnected and integrated.
Chen Luoyang vaguely captured a bit of inspiration in his mind.
Some of the information revealed by this secret might be useful to me …
The thought flashed by, and Chen Luoyang suppressed it.
First of all, he had to deal with the Heavenly Book of "Soul" in front of him.
After purifying the Treasure Gathering Rope, Chen Luoyang decisively took action.
The jet-black rope turned into a giant net flashing with blue light and flew into the hall, aiming at the Heavenly Book of "Soul" above Leng Ji's head!
It could be seen that the Great Emperor of Western Qin was currently possessing the General surnamed Leng.
One of the keys was that page of the Heavenly Book of "Soul".
At present, Chen Luoyang was not sure what the page of the Heavenly Book would do, but if he could seize the Heavenly Book of "Soul", the Great Emperor of Western Qin's possession would not only fail, but also greatly reduce the expected result.
The black net flashed and suddenly covered the Heavenly Book of "Soul".
Sure enough, Leng Ji's whole body shook.
He opened his eyes and looked at Chen Luoyang, who was outside the hall, with a gaze like lightning.
Meeting that gaze, Chen Luoyang knew that it might not be Leng Ji, but the Great Emperor of Western Qin, Li Ce.
However, he was looking for the other party's weakest moment.
Although facing the enemy's attack, "Leng Ji" was frozen in place at the moment, his body trembling.
The process of the five black dragons rushing into his body was temporarily stopped, and five thick black beams of light kept swinging on "Leng Ji's" chest.
The connection with the Heavenly Book of "Soul" seemed to be cut off.
The remnant page of the Heavenly Book was even swept out of the hall by the flashing blue net.
"Leng Ji" s eyes were cold. Slowly, he raised his hand and pointed outside the hall.
Chen Luoyang immediately felt that the well water, which was as thick and heavy as mercury, surrounding him, began to crazily press with him as the center.
Not to mention a Martial Emperor, even a Martial Sage would be crushed to death by that horrifying pressure, unable to resist at all.
Fortunately, Chen Luoyang was prepared.
The gift that the Sky River Sword Immortal gave to him, the "Demon Lord", was working at this time.
Rays of light seemed to outline a huge transparent crystal, protecting him in it, isolating him from the pressure of the well water.
However, the well water was really terrifying. The transparent crystal creaked under the pressure, as if it could shatter at any time.
But Chen Luoyang seized the time, controlled the treasure gathering rope, and forcibly dragged the page of the Heavenly Book of "Soul" over.
"Leng Ji", who was opposite, suddenly trembled all over again.
The awe-inspiring brilliance in his eyes gradually dissipated and was replaced by confusion.
He groaned, and his body tilted to one side.
In his eyes, the light kept flickering, and sometimes it disappeared, faintly discernible. The majestic momentum and the inexplicable confusion alternated.
Finally, he looked up to the sky and shouted.
The shout seemed to be full of unwillingness and resentment.
The five black dragons that were about to enter his body began to reverse and rush out.
There seemed to be a faint shadow among those who rushed out together, as if it was a ghost.
The young Western Qin general looked weak, and his eyes were full of confusion. His mind seemed to be in a mess, and he could not figure out what had just happened.
"Leng Ji" became "Leng Ji" again.
And that faint shadow, combined with the five black dragons, kept swaying in the air, as if trying to condense into one.
But the shadow could not stabilize into a human shape no matter how hard it swayed.
Finally, the shadow suddenly stopped for a moment.
Chen Luoyang immediately became vigilant.
Sure enough, the next moment, the shadow exploded and fell into pieces.
The entire hall collapsed, and the five black dragons scattered, completely tearing the underwater Dragon Palace.
