Chapter 771: Maintaining the True Form and Gathering the Spirit
Chen Chuan returned to the dense forest and walked towards the crack that had been opened just now. Some of his things, including the Xuejun Sword, were still on the opposite side and needed to be retrieved.
In fact, the world on the other side is full of dangers and many inexplicable things. If it weren't for the light of the lost objects shining there, he would not have left his things there with confidence.
When he came over, he saw Chao Ming standing on the bag. He had cleverly taken out all the things inside after Chao Ming came out of the crack. Now seeing Chao Ming coming back, he raised his head and let out a chirp.
Chen Chuan smiled. With Chao Ming around, he no longer had to worry about many things. He went up to it and touched its head, then picked up the Xuejun Sword that was next to his bag.
He wasn't sure if the Xuejun Sword could withstand the kind of battle just now, so he didn't use this weapon.
But he saw that Yao Zhiyi, Wan Yunshan, Wei Guochan and others all had their own weapons, and Wan Yunshan tried to disarm his opponent at the first moment. This undoubtedly showed that weapons could still play a certain role at this stage. So he had to find a way to improve them after returning.
Well, thinking of this, he still had one important thing to do.
He packed up his things, locked his bag, and walked out of the dense forest. He saw Yao Zhiyi standing on one side, and Wan Yunshan squatting there, holding Wei Guochan's head and chattering something to him.
He turned his gaze and looked into the distance. Wan Yunshan noticed his movements and asked enthusiastically, "Junior, what are you looking for?"
Chen Chuan said, "I'm looking for Wei Guochan's spear."
Wan Yunshan said, "Then you've found the right person." He pointed toward a ditch in the distance and said, "Look, it's buried there, right down there."
Chen Chuan took a look and walked over quickly. He saw that most of the spear was covered by loose dust, with only a small part exposed. He reached out and took it out, shook it first, then brushed it with his hand to remove the dust on it, and finally blew on the white necklace to restore its original color.
You can leave the other things behind, but you must take this loot back with you.
Wan Yunshan looked at him like this, blinked, and seemed to understand something.
Could the oath this student made when he broke through his limit be related to his opponent's weapon? Does defeating an opponent require him to confiscate their weapon?
This is rare, or is it just for collection?
He couldn't understand it for a moment, but he didn't think about it too much. This was a private matter. Some people didn't care if others knew about it, but some people would try every means to cover it up.
However, he thought that since this junior brother was so powerful in combat, the oath he made must be unusual. There might be some big flaws that could be exploited, so it would be better not to ask too much.
Chen Chuan took out a piece of cloth, wiped the spear again, and walked back with it.
Yao Zhiyi said, "Have you taken care of it? Then why not take my airship and leave together?"
Chen Chuan said, "Principal, I'm here to help my colleagues who are searching for lost items ahead. Now that the search is over, they're still outside. There are still many troops from the old imperial family around here, so it might be difficult for them to turn back. I was wondering if I could take them with me before I go back."
Upon hearing this, Yao Zhiyi said solemnly, "Of course. Those who can come here to seize the lost items must be our Dashun elite soldiers! Do you know where they are now?"
Chen Chuanshuo said, "I've made an agreement with them, and I can roughly guess their current location. They also carry radio transmitters and receivers, so it shouldn't be difficult to find them."
"That's fine. I have a radio on my airship. Let's get on it first."
At this time, the airship had flown over the heads of the three of them. After a while, three towing ropes were lowered from it. After the three of them grabbed them, they were carried upwards. Finally, with a slight push, they each landed on the large terrace in front of the boat.
Just as they came up, a voice came from not far away: "Start the music!"
The military band that had been waiting on the deck immediately began to play music. The drums and trumpets sounded cheerfully, and they played a passionate piece of music. The melody sounded like thousands of horses galloping, fighting on the battlefield, returning from a hundred battles, and the general winning.
Wan Yunshan's expression was a little subtle for a moment.
Yao Zhiyi's face was flushed.
Chen Chuan smiled and said, "Principal Yao, this song is very uplifting."
Yao Zhiyi laughed heartily and said, "Isn't that right? When we get together, how can we not have music to liven up our lives?" After listening for a moment, his expression straightened up, "Let's get down to business first."
He took Chen Chuan to the telegraph room on the boat, where several telegraph operators were responsible for exchanging information. He told one of them, "Send a message to the rear immediately and have them start according to the plan."
"yes!"
Another telegraph operator learned what Chen Chuan needed and began to send messages. Not long after, he received a signal. After translating it, he confirmed that it was a reply from Captain Hai and others, informing them that they had reunited with Xu Chan, were safe and sound, and were trying to return.
Chen Chuan asked the telegraph operator to ask about their current location. After receiving the report, he compared the location with the map and found that Xu Chan and his group were about half an hour away from them. So after asking Yao Zhiyi for instructions, the airship immediately turned and moved towards there.
When Yao Zhiyi saw that the telegram had been sent, he took Chen Chuan and Wan Yunshan back to the main cabin. After they sat down, he asked his adjutant to take out the tea he had brought with him.
The adjutant couldn't help but look at Chen Chuan a few more times at this moment. He saw it clearly from above. Chen Chuan defeated Wei Guochan alone. He was clearly a powerful fighter, and he looked so young.
He knew very well that Yao Zhiyi and Wei Guochan were evenly matched, neither of them could defeat the other. If Chen Chuan could defeat Wei Guochan, then that meant...
He lowered his eyes and came forward to respectfully pour tea for the few people.
Yao Zhiyi then said, "Now, only Gai Shuhe is left among the old imperial family's troops in Jibei Road. Let's rush over and kill Gai Shuhe, and the matter will be over."
When Wan Yunshan heard this, his eyes lit up immediately, "Are we going now? Okay, okay..."
With the three of them, it would be easy to deal with Gai Shuhe. Now that the news of Wei Guochan's beheading has not spread, they will surely be able to catch him off guard. If Gai Shuhe is also dealt with, the rule of the old imperial family in this area where Jibei Road converges will collapse directly.
The central city of Jibei Road can directly take over this area, and every time the Dashun side occupies a territory, they will build an astonishing number of solid military fortresses on it. The siege is the weakness of the old imperial family. So far, there has been no example of Dashun being pushed back after taking it. Therefore, if it succeeds, then this place can almost be permanently incorporated into the territory of Dashun.
He said excitedly: "Principal, then we..."
Yao Zhiyi didn't wait for him to finish, he picked up the teacup on the table, handed it to him, and said, "Have some tea."
"Oh oh..." The old principal personally served the tea, so Wan Yunshan had to drink it. He quickly stood up from his seat, took it, and gulped down a few sips.
Chen Chuan's eyes moved at this moment. Gai Shuhe should be Chen Bitong's old rival. Chen Bitong faced this person and has no trace of him since then. He doesn't know what the outcome will be. If he can meet this person this time, he will try to find out.
Principal Yao said, "This time, we were able to successfully capture Wei Guochan, Director Chen, mainly thanks to you."
Chen Chuanshuo said, "I just took advantage of a loophole. If Zhao Zhenye hadn't intervened, the principal and the senior would have easily taken him down. And if the principal and the senior hadn't held Zhao Zhenye back, I wouldn't have been able to do this either."
Wan Yunshan took a sip of tea and quickly put down his teacup when he heard them talking. "Junior brother, you've just entered the fourth limit and you've already shown that kind of performance. I've never seen anyone like you before. Wow, you're really amazing! Originally, Principal Yao and I were responsible for this, but I didn't expect you to be the one to get the upper hand in the end.
Junior, you don't have to feel guilty. It's nothing. What's yours is yours. We won't take away your credit. You don't know, I..."
"Have some tea!"
Yao Zhiyi had an expressionless face as he handed the tea poured by his adjutant to Wan Yunshan, who quickly stood up and took it.
Yao Zhiyi turned to Chen Chuanshuo and said, "Wei Guochan follows the path of a godly general who protects the country. Those six arms are not for appearance, but to display different strengths. I didn't expect that he would still be defeated by you.
It can be seen that the strength you just used should be strong and vigorous, combined with horizontal training. This kind of pure and focused approach is indeed very restraining to Wei Guochan at this stage."
Wan Yunshan drank tea and nodded repeatedly.
He had just seen Chen Chuan and Wei Guochan's battles almost entirely head-on. Generally, those who adopted a forceful and aggressive style, because of their extremely pure minds, would inevitably unleash immense power in their spiritual fire. This was evident from the impact of the spiritual fire just now.
In fact, what Chen Chuan used just now was just the most basic free-hand strength. The problem was that he combined the strength of his second self to break through again, which even exceeded the limit that a perfect human body could achieve in theory.
This unprecedented foundation allowed him to possess extremely strong strength and speed as soon as he entered this realm. Even if he only made the most basic moves, the external effects would be extremely amazing.
As for the specific transformation of his strength, he needed to go back and sort it out. He thought for a moment and asked, "Principal Yao, you just said that Wei Guochan was following the path of a 'national guardian general'?"
Yao Zhiyi said, "This is an old saying. The old imperial family all said this, and it's a relatively accurate expression. I'll just say it like this." He finished his tea and immediately put the empty cup down and said, "Xiao Wan, pour the tea."
"Okay."
Wan Yunshan immediately went to the side to get the teapot and poured him tea.
Yao Zhiyi said: "Our state is often called 'carrying the mysterious secrets'. The most important thing about this state is nothing more than six words, which are 'maintaining the true form and gathering the spiritual appearance'!"
