He didn't expect that because of his guilt, he would give a trace of spirit force to Duan Xiaolou, but it would help him instead. With this trace of spirit force, he could actually help him open his profound lattice. It could be considered a blessing in disguise.
At this moment, Yi Tian was also relieved. The Great Dao he cultivated was originally free and unfettered. If he felt guilty because of some karma, it would be very detrimental to his future cultivation.
Great Immortal Guagua had absorbed 10% of his providence, and he had helped him break through his profound lattice. They were even now. He glanced at Duan Xiaolou and saw that he didn't notice this at all. He thought it was because of the breakthrough this time.
After a while, Yi Tian said, "Prince, now is not the time to celebrate. Although I have subdued this' Asura Blood Vine ', it is only temporary. We still need to think of a complete plan."
Duan Xiaolou restrained the smile on his face and said, "Brother Yi is right. The spirit plant in front of us has been subdued. I have a wonderful technique to get rid of it once and for all. Please wait for a moment."
After that, Duan Xiaolou slowly walked forward to the roots of the 'Asura Blood Vine' and took out a spirit sword. After the golden light flashed, he split the root of the main stem and took out two blood-colored roots, one big and one small.
The blood-colored root was emitting a rich spiritual Qi, as if the essence of the past 10,000 years had been stored here. Duan Xiaolou took out two storage bags and put them in. After that, he gently handed over the big one and said, "This is a small gift. Brother Yi, please don't refuse."
"Prince, what do you mean?" Yi Tian was puzzled.
"This item is called the Bloodwood Spirit Marrow. It is a special product of the 'Asura Blood Vine'. It is a good tonic whether it is used as medicine or consumed directly," Duan Xiaolou explained.
"In that case, this Bloodwood Spirit Marrow must have a special effect on Ashura cultivators. Your generosity makes me feel ashamed. I am not from the Ashura Tribe and naturally do not need so much. I will only take a small portion," Yi Tian declined.
Duan Xiaolou didn't stop when he heard that. He directly handed the storage bag containing the large portion to Yi Tian and said, "Brother Yi, you don't have to be so polite. After you accept it, I have something to say. Please don't be surprised."
Looking at his serious face, he must have something to say. Yi Tian was startled. He couldn't have discovered his identity, could he? However, when he thought about how cautious he had been along the way, he did not reveal any traces of the Asura Tribe's cultivation method.
Could it be that Mi Baiji had revealed his identity to him? The thought flashed through his mind, but he immediately rejected it.
Although he didn't have a deep understanding of Mi Baiji, he didn't think he was such a person. Since Mi Baiji had recognized his true identity, he naturally wouldn't ruin his plans for the sake of a small loss.
After a while, Duan Xiaolou slowly formed a seal, and the appearance of the Asura Dharma Body appeared on his body. He stared at himself in the blink of an eye. His six eyes flashed with a faint blue light and his six arms formed a hand seal, drawing a foot-long rune in the air.
Yi Tian only felt that his body inadvertently had a reaction to this rune, and the shadow of the Asura Dharma Body actually faintly appeared behind him.
He had never encountered such a situation before. When Duan Xiaolou's gaze swept past the image, he revealed a trace of surprise. However, when he discovered that the image didn't reveal the imperial imprint, his expression only changed slightly before returning to normal.
This action naturally couldn't be hidden from Yi Tian's eyes. After the runes in front of him dissipated, he said, "In the dynasty, I'm responsible for inspecting the cultivation of the clansmen. That rune is ineffective against ordinary cultivators, but it can easily detect the depth of any clansmen's cultivation method."
"I see. It seems that you've already sensed my Dharma Body," Yi Tian said.
"Brother Yi, as a consecrator of the Asura Sect, it doesn't make sense if you haven't cultivated our tribe's movement technique," Duan Xiaolou replied, "I think the Asura Sect's leader is cautious. At the very least, he wouldn't let an outsider do something as important as escorting the sect members to the imperial city."
"Oh, it seems that you've investigated my background," Yi Tian said faintly.
"Although it's not very comprehensive, combining the information obtained from Supremacy Yun and Luo Yao, as well as my observations during this period of time, I can determine that you're a friend and not an enemy. In addition to the fact that you helped me escape today, it naturally proves that you're a cultivator of our tribe," Duan Xiaolou analyzed.
He didn't expect Duan Xiaolou to have made sufficient preparations and conducted a detailed investigation of his situation. However, this was also good. Duan Xiaolou only revealed superficial information from his words, and those were things that he had intentionally or unintentionally shown to others.
Currently, only three people knew his true identity, and it seemed that Duan Xiaolou hadn't seen through him yet. This made it easier for him to pass himself off as a fish eyes. After thinking about it, he cupped his hands and said, "I have no intention of getting involved in the internal disputes of the imperial family. I can't help it if Supremacy Yun forces me to do something beyond my ability."
Duan Xiaolou sighed and replied, "I also know that this isn't up to you. I'm also deeply involved in it."
"Could it be that you're the person recommended by Lord Xun?" Yi Tian changed the topic and asked.
Nodding, Duan Xiaolou replied helplessly, "I didn't want to get involved in this dispute of the imperial family, but Supremacy Yun's candidate isn't strong enough. If he openly confronts Prince Wei's side, he'll definitely lose. You should know where the problem lies now."
"It seems that I've been involved in the battle for the position of the emperor's son-in-law. I think Yunling must have dragged Lord Xun's side into the water and deliberately stirred up the situation to benefit from it," Yi Tian probed. "But I heard that Lord Xun and Prince Wei have formed an alliance to cover the sky with one hand in the imperial court."
"That's because you're far away from the imperial court." Duan Xiaolou continued, "In fact, Prince Wei has been stirring up trouble from the beginning to the end. However, Supremacy Yun is a woman and has the responsibility of nurturing the Empress, so she has no time to spare. That's why she allowed Prince Wei to gain the upper hand by a show of strength."
"I heard that Prince Wei's regent is well-organized, but Luo Ziyan will soon advance to the Unification Stage. When that time comes, it'll be necessary for her to return to the imperial court. That's why Prince Wei frequently intervenes," Yi Tian continued to ask.
"Fellow Daoist Yi, if you call the Empress by her name, I'm afraid you'll be charged with disrespect by the Imperial Censors. However, you're half right. It's not that easy for the Empress to advance to the Combination Stage, so I don't think she'll take that step easily." Duan Xiaolou continued, "In the future, my trip to the Fire Domain's Secret Realm will just be a formality. The key is still how the two of you deal with each other. My father only wants to maintain the stability of the court, so he's temporarily joining forces with Prince Wei. However, this disloyal cooperation will soon be broken with the rise of the Empress."
