On the tenth floor of the Heavenly Path, Yi Tian used the identity of Viscount Hongshan, Chu An, to successfully pass the fifth stage from the path of Talisman Dao. Facing the attacks of a large number of Wasteland Demonic Wolves, he only needed to activate the eleven explosive talismans in his hand to wipe them all out.
After the smoke dissipated, the high-grade explosive talismans spread out in a radius of one and a half kilometers. Not a single living creature was left alive. And this was after Yi Tian deliberately held back. According to the strength of the fifth floor, only cultivators at the early Deity Transformation Stage could reach it.
It was a miracle that Viscount Hongshan could reach this level with his identity and cultivation. Fortunately, he started with the Dao of Talismans, so it made sense for him to leave this place. In the eyes of others, Chu An was relying on external help and not his true strength.
At the same time, this was the result that Yi Tian wanted. It would be best if he could pass himself off as the real deal.
After slowly withdrawing his hand, he discovered that he had escaped. After a flash of white light, he was back in the stone room. The voice in the air said, "Successful breakthrough with the talisman. You finished the battle in one go but didn't use your Asura Avatar. Your performance is rated as above average. After receiving your reward, you can choose to continue or leave. "
Yi Tian was stunned. He didn't think that there would be such a rating. It seemed that the next floor required him to use his Asura Avatar.
However, this wasn't surprising. He had originally taken the exclusive passage for the Asura Tribe. Before that, he had already muddled his way through without any obstructions along the way. It seemed that if he wanted to go deeper, he would have to use the Asura Tribe's cultivation method.
Chu An's strength had already exceeded his normal level. If he continued, he would definitely be targeted. After thinking about it, Yi Tian smiled slightly and reached out to take the reward in front of him. After that, he walked towards the light door.
After three breaths of time, Yi Tian passed by the stone tablet again. He looked up and saw the name 'Chu An' at the end of the sixth floor. On the right, there were the words' talisman 'and' one '.
After pondering for a moment, he walked over to Mi Baiji, who was waiting for him at the side. After a short delay, he got into the car and left in a hurry.
Inside the carriage, the soundproof barrier was activated. The two of them sat face to face. Yi Tian asked with a serious expression, "You've been to the sixth level. What's the situation like after that? Do we need to fight to pass?"
"That's more or less the case. For people like us who don't have any skills, we can only rely on our own strength to pass through. More than 90% of cultivators walk the path of 'Strength'. As for those who walk the path of 'Skill', they are all clearly marked on the stone steles, "Mi Baiji explained.
"The first four stages should be easy to pass. The fifth stage should coincide with the Path of Strength," Yi Tian said.
"That's more or less the case, but Your Majesty needs to be careful not to leave behind any flaws. I reckon that after today, Asura Dynasty's view of Viscount Hongshan will change greatly, "Mi Baiji said with a silly smile.
"It doesn't matter. However, I've never seen any of the people who left their names on the stone steles. It's best to find an opportunity to meet with Prince Wei's people and find out the truth," Yi Tian said after some thought.
"That won't be a problem. Prince Xun will return soon. After that, he will definitely invite Hao Ren and Qiao Yongjun to his residence. With his personality, he will naturally hold a private banquet to win over the various factions," Mi Baiji said.
"Will Shui Cangyue and Luo Yao be invited as well?" Yi Tian changed the topic.
"Shui Cangyue is an esteemed guest of Prince Xun's residence. As for Grand Commander Luo Yao, he probably won't abandon his military duties. After all, his character isn't suited for noble circles," Mi Baiji replied.
"If that's the case, then it's meaningless," Yi Tian said disdainfully.
"That's not entirely true. Qiao Yongjun is Prince Wei's nephew. How could he not have any experts by his side? Perhaps one of them will accompany him to the trial in the future." After Mi Baiji lightly pointed this out, he fell silent and quietly waited for his reply.
Yi Tian thought for a moment before saying, "That's good. I also want to meet these three candidates. However, I'm currently on Yun Lin's side. Duan Xiaolou and I are old friends, and we've supported each other in the past. I'm afraid that if he keeps showing his goodwill, Yun Lin will be unhappy. "
"That's also a troublesome matter. Why don't you participate as Viscount Hongshan? However, it will put His Majesty in last place. Please don't take offense, "Mi Baiji suggested after some thought.
"That's not a problem. My original intention was to scout for information. I never thought of exposing my identity. I'll use Viscount Hongshan's identity," Yi Tian decided.
After returning to Viscount Hongshan's residence and sending off Mi Baiji, Yi Tian disguised himself as Chu An and anxiously reprimanded all the servants in the residence. Then, he pretended to go into seclusion and arranged all the matters in the residence. He ordered that only people from the imperial court or the imperial censor were allowed to report to him. He did not want to see anyone else.
That night, Yi Tian used a concealment technique to sneak out of Viscount Hongshan's residence. Then, he hurriedly rushed back to the 'Billowing Cloud Residence'.
Fortunately, Yun Lin was not at home. No one in the residence could detect his whereabouts. Following his memory, Yi Tian secretly returned to his cave residence. Then, he laid down several restrictions and barriers in the cave. Afterward, he summoned Great Immortal Kua Qua and used the Thousand Faces Technique to transform into his own appearance. He then sat cross-legged in the cave residence to cultivate.
At the same time, he placed a trace of spirit energy on Great Immortal Kua Qua, allowing it to imitate his spirit pressure. In this way, as long as Yun Lin did not personally come, she would not be able to find out the truth.
After finishing all these preparations, Yi Tian once again sneaked out of the 'Billowing Cloud Residence'. With Great Immortal Kua Qua as his cover, he could freely operate outside.
By the time he returned to Viscount Hongshan's residence, it was already noon on the second day. After using the Thousand Faces Technique to transform his appearance into Chu An's, he walked around the residence. A servant reported that the heir of the Xun Prince had sent someone to deliver an invitation.
After receiving the invitation, Yi Tian opened it and glanced at it. On it was written that the banquet at the Xun Prince's residence was to be held in the evening three days later.
Yi Tian understood that this was the result of Mi Baiji's actions. Otherwise, with Viscount Hongshan's status, there was no reason for him to receive such an invitation.
After a while, the housekeeper mentioned, "Reporting to Master, Imperial Censor Lord Mi also sent someone to deliver an invitation. He said that he would bring Master to the banquet three days later."
A satisfied smile appeared on Yi Tian's face. Although Mi Baiji's strength was lacking, he was well versed in the ways of an official. His actions had solved the problem of how to go.
