At Xiao Chen's request, Qin Jianwen still arranged a table.

In Xiao Chen's words, with their current strength, even if the Emperor finds out, so what? If the Emperor dares to come, he will be beaten directly!

However, having said that, the location they chose is still very secretive, and it is also related to Yamazaki Mori.

Xiao Chen had no intention of exposing Xue Chunqiu and Lei Gong. He was going to use them to trick Emperor Tian.

Presumably, the Emperor would never have imagined that in addition to the Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai, they also had Xue Chunqiu and Lei Gong on their side.

Xiao Chen treated Xiao Dao's injuries. He had internal injuries, but they were not serious.

Xiaodao didn't care at all. In his words, even if the injury was serious, let alone a minor one, it would be a big win if he could get a master back.

Xiao Chen thought about it and it made sense. From now on, Xiaodao would have a foundation and a backer in the ancient martial arts world, and a big backer at that.

Who dares to provoke the disciple of Sword God Xue Chunqiu?

Few people dare to provoke!

Xiao Chen was also very happy. Today, he not only dealt with Lei Gong, but also Xue Chunqiu.

What made him even happier was that he understood more about the innate and became more proficient in using the power of heaven and earth.

"Why did you admit defeat?"

In a place where no one was around, the Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai looked at Xue Chunqiu and asked lightly.

"I was defeated in the first place. That boy was too evil..."

Xue Chunqiu said slowly.

"Besides, I also want to see how far he can go... maybe he will really reach the Xiantian realm."

Hearing Xue Chunqiu's words, the Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai chuckled.

"Old monk, don't you think the same way?"

Xue Chunqiu looked at the Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai and asked.

"Yes and no, he saved my life..."

Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai shook his head and said.

"Life-saving grace? How do you say that?"

Xue Chunqiu was surprised. Is there such a powerful existence in the island country?

"That day, the old monk was chased by the Emperor and many other powerful beings. When I was fleeing, I met Xiao Xiaoyou..."

The ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai smiled.

"So, this is also the reason why I didn't take the Xuanyuan Sword."

"The Emperor... I fought him briefly, he is indeed very strong."

Xue Chunqiu nodded slowly.

"However, why did Xiao Chen's strength improve so rapidly? Could it be that he obtained the Xuanyuan inheritance?"

"No, Xuanyuan Sword has no inheritance."

Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai shook his head.

"The power of heaven and earth... I'm really surprised that he can use the power of heaven and earth."

Xue Chunqiu narrowed his eyes.

"Being able to use the power of heaven and earth means he is half a step ahead of the innate... So, he can be considered half a step ahead of the innate."

"His true realm is only at the peak of the early stage of Hua Jin... This boy is indeed too evil."

The ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai smiled.

"The old monk is also looking forward to it... It seems that he has gained a lot from fighting with you today."

Before Xue Chunqiu could speak, Xiao Chen came over: "Haha, Master, Senior Xue, what are you talking about?"

"Talking about you."

The ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai smiled.

"They said you were too evil..."

"Haha, if you say so, I admit it... Let's go, let's get ready for dinner. We can talk about it over the table."

Xiao Chen said with a smile.

"Master, Senior Xue, please come in."

"Um."

The two nodded and entered the private room.

After everyone sat down, it began.

Xiao Chen poured the wine and looked at everyone: "Come, let me toast to the seniors first, Master, Senior Xue, Senior Lei Gong, and... Senior Zhao."

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Zhao Lao Mo felt a little better. If Xiao Chen dared to call him "Lao Zhao", he would be angry.

Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai also drinks. Come to think of it, he even kills people, let alone these rules.

After Xiao Chen finished drinking, Xiao Dao held the cup and came to the Sword God Xue Chunqiu alone.

Xiao Chen also said that tonight can be considered as a banquet for paying homage to his teacher.

"Today, in the presence of all the seniors and brothers, I, Xiaodao, take the Sword God as my master... Master, please drink."

Xiaodao said this, kneeling on the ground with the wine glass raised above his head.

Xue Chunqiu nodded, took the wine glass, and drank it down.

"When we get back to China, you will come with me."

"this……"

Xiaodao hesitated.

"What's this and that? With your fighting ability, you are just a drag. Hurry up and practice swordsmanship with Senior Xue. Get stronger and come back when I need you."

Xiao Chen knew why Xiao Dao hesitated and said to him.

"good."

Xiaodao nodded.

After a few drinks, the atmosphere at the table became better.

"Senior Xue, there is something I want to do with you..."

Xiao Chen looked at Xue Chunqiu, ready to talk about his important matter.

After hearing Xiao Chen's words, everyone looked over, wondering how Xue Chunqiu would react.

"I'm going to rob the royal treasure room..."

Xiao Chen talked a lot and then catered to his interest by mentioning that there must be many precious swords in the treasure room.

"Senior Xue, are you interested?"

"What time?"

Xue Chunqiu asked, still looking calm.

"Senior Xue, just for your attitude, I have to toast you."

Xiao Chen was convinced. Look at Xue Chunqiu, he is indeed the God of Sword. He just asked what time it was and he was not afraid at all!

Unlike Zhao Lao Mo and his ilk, who were terrified when they heard that he was going to rob the royal treasure room...

"No, just tell me a time. I'll take Xiaodao and leave first... If you want to die, don't drag him along."

Xue Chunqiu shook his head and said.

"Forehead……"

Xiao Chen was stunned, and his hand holding the wine glass trembled. Is this what you mean?

Everyone was stunned for a moment and wanted to laugh.

“Are there really a lot of knives in there?”

Xue Chunqiu looked at Xiao Chen and asked.

"Well, I think so...Senior Xue, you're not going?"

Xiao Chen looked down on me. I thought you were such a powerful and awesome swordsman.

"I was just teasing you. Of course you have to go for something like this."

Xue Chunqiu shook his head and said.

"Tease me?"

Xiao Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. You can also joke? How fucking strange!

"When will we start?"

Xue Chunqiu picked up the glass, took a sip of wine, and asked.

"That's just the idea for now, but the exact time frame hasn't been determined yet... The most important thing is that we haven't found the location of the treasure room."

Xiao Chen was also quite excited when he saw Xue Chunqiu agreed.

In his plan, with the Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai, the Sword God Xue Chunqiu and the Thunder God, plus himself, this thing could be accomplished.

Even if there really is a transformed being hidden in the Imperial Palace, so what!

Without bragging, Xiao Chen felt that he alone was enough to deal with the transformed one now... As for the Emperor, the Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai and the Sword God Xue Chunqiu could join forces to beat the old devil.

"Hurry up, the Emperor won't give us too much time. The island nation has been blocked for a while, and it's impossible to keep it blocked for a long time."

Xue Chunqiu said to Xiao Chen.

"Also... I was curious why the Emperor had to look for you. Now I understand."

"Why? Xuanyuan Sword?"

Xiao Chen was also curious about this and asked quickly.

"It's not the Xuanyuan Blade, but... your storage ring. The Emperor has set his eyes on this thing."

Xue Chunqiu looked at the bone ring on Xiao Chen's hand and said.

"What? Are you targeting my storage ring?"

Xiao Chen was stunned and looked down.

“He doesn’t know either.”

"Do you take the Emperor for a fool?"

Xue Chunqiu asked back.

Xiao Chen frowned, and thought about it again...it was really possible!

First they bombed Beihai, then they bombed the Chingkuo Shrine, including the Emperor...

Where did the weapons come from?

Presumably, the Emperor has already made his guess.

"And... the destruction of Aoyama-do was related to you, right? Aoyama-sama went to the Imperial Palace."

Xue Chunqiu thought of something and said.

"Aoyama Zuo? This old devil... he ran fast that night!"

When mentioning Qingshan Zuo, Xiao Chen gritted his teeth.

He ran very fast that night. If he had run a little slower, he would have been dead!

Thinking about it now, I still feel a lingering fear... The collapse of space is too terrible, and it is beyond human power to resist. Everything in the space will be reduced to ashes.

"Find it as soon as possible, take action as soon as possible, and then leave the island country..."

Xue Chunqiu has had enough of staying in the island country.

"good."

Xiao Chen nodded.

After some small talk, they mentioned that Xiao Chen had closed his eyes during the battle just now.

"At that time, I entered a mysterious state, and my awareness of everything around me became more acute. In addition to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, I also felt something else, which should be the power of heaven and earth."

Xiao Chen did not hide it and said.

"Can you clearly feel the power of heaven and earth?"

Xue Chunqiu was surprised that his sword strike...did not break the domain.

"right."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"Master, have you ever thought about this question? How do we communicate with the power of heaven and earth? In other words, how do we communicate with heaven and earth to use the power of heaven and earth?"

"It should be related to the soul... In fact, this time I came to the island country, I also want to do more research on the soul! The Yin-Yang Taoism of the island country has done more research on the soul than the Chinese side."

Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai thought for a moment and said.

"That's right, it's related to the strength of the soul... The stronger the soul, the easier it is to communicate with heaven and earth!"

Xiao Chen nodded and looked at Lei Gong.

"Because Senior Lei Gong is a superpower, his soul has supported him to use the element of lightning, so he cannot sense the power of heaven and earth."

"So that's how it is. I have a vague feeling like that too..."

Lei Gong suddenly realized and nodded.

"Why do most of the gods in the island nation's shrines have the strength of half a step to the innate once they transform? What is a 'god'? In fact, it is the soul... Some souls have independent consciousness, that is, spiritual imprints, while some souls do not and are driven by people... But no matter what they are, their strength is very strong, just like half a step to the innate! Why is this? This is because... since they can transform, their souls are very strong, so... they can communicate with heaven and earth and borrow the power of heaven and earth without too many obstacles!"

Xiao Chen asked and answered his own questions, and expressed his guesses.

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai and others were all shocked.

Is this the reason?

Soul?

The power of the soul?

They felt like they had suddenly been enlightened!

"Use your soul to sense the heaven and earth, and communicate with the heaven and earth..."

Xue Chunqiu muttered to himself, then looked at the Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai.

“Do you Buddhists have such a saying?”

“The Buddhist tradition has also been broken, but there are stories about the power of the soul.”

Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai said slowly.

"Perhaps... we have really gone astray."
