The armor plates given to Yang Cheng by the Heavenly Emperor allowed Yang Cheng to sense the location of the True Lord of the Pure Source Dao.
However, this world seems to be too big, so this perception is not very sensitive.
It was only at this moment that Yang Cheng realized that the inheritance of Qingyuan Daomiao Zhenjun was actually in Xianyang.
According to the conventions of the Void Realm, the inheritance would definitely not be in some corner of Xianyang, but rather within the Qin King's Palace.
In this world of immortals and mortals, power is distorted, and history is also distorted. Yang Cheng doesn't know what he will have to go through if he wants to infiltrate the Qin King's palace.
The Twelve Golden Men Formation, composed of the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons, had killed hundreds of cultivators; he himself didn't know if he could withstand it.
Therefore, the safest approach is to proceed step by step, following Zhang Liang and other resistance forces to storm the Qin palace before searching for the inheritance.
Anyway, there's no time limit in the virtual world; you just need to complete the task.
Zhang Liang, on the other hand, was beaming with joy.
He had witnessed Yang Cheng's strength firsthand; it was astonishingly powerful.
With such a person joining the ranks of those resisting the tyrannical Qin, our side's strength will surely increase significantly.
"Brother Zhang, are you alone now, or have you joined forces with another faction?"
In normal historical accounts, Zhang Liang would have already been working with Liu Bang at this time.
However, in this parallel world, the Qin state still reigns supreme, and most of the nobles of the six states have been slaughtered. Therefore, the main force resisting the Qin state consists of the various schools of thought and the cultivators of those sects.
Liu Bang might be here, but he should still be honestly serving as a village headman, not engaging in rebellion.
Zhang Liang said, "Back then, when I was young and impetuous, I went with Tie Nu to assassinate the First Emperor without much preparation."
In the end, all he got was a car that was smashed, and he was hunted down for so many years.
Over the years, I have tried to find a powerful ally, but most of these guys are mediocre. They only use the name of resisting the tyrannical Qin Dynasty to make their own profits, and the despicable things they do are even worse than those of the tyrannical Qin Dynasty.
So later I got too lazy to look for anyone to rely on, and directly recruited a group of hermits and sect cultivators to secretly resist the tyrannical Qin and rescue some of the poor people oppressed by the tyrannical Qin.
Of course, the number was not large, only about five hundred people.
Compared to uprisings like those of Chen Sheng and Zhao Xie, which rallied hundreds of thousands with a single call to arms, Zhang Liang's five hundred men were like a joke.
Perhaps fearing that Yang Cheng might underestimate him, Zhang Liang quickly said, "Brother Yang, don't underestimate me just because I only have five hundred men. These five hundred men are all cultivators with cultivation, unlike ordinary civilian soldiers."
Although Liang had some reputation, his cultivation level was low, and the number of people he could recruit was limited.
But now, with Brother Yang joining us, our power will surely grow even stronger!
Zhang Liang had recruited many people before, but he didn't treat Yang Cheng as a subordinate; he intended to make him a partner.
Among the various leaders of the uprisings against the tyrannical Qin Dynasty, Zhang Liang was not particularly powerful; he was merely somewhat famous.
After all, he dared to assassinate the First Emperor when he was young; he was incredibly reckless, more like an assassin than a sorcerer.
Zhang Liang became famous throughout the world after that battle, but he was also hunted down by the Qin state for many years.
He himself had limited strength, was constantly being hunted down, and had no support from the nobles of the six kingdoms or the various sects, so he had always relied on himself to develop.
Even some of the things he did were not about conquering cities and seizing territories, but simply about rescuing some people from the oppression of the Qin Dynasty's corvée labor, which was almost equivalent to the nature of a bandit.
If he hadn't been caught off guard by Yang Xiong, what he did wouldn't have had a significant impact on the Qin state, and almost no one would have gone out of their way to eliminate him.
Now, with the support of the powerful Yang Cheng, Zhang Liang is confident that his forces will be even stronger.
Yang Cheng said, "It's not that I dislike Brother Zhang for having too few men. What if you have a lot of men? Even if you sweep up hundreds of thousands of people, if they are all a rabble, they will still be defeated in one blow."
Fewer people actually make us more flexible and allow us to utilize more resources.
Hearing Yang Cheng say this, Zhang Liang was relieved.
"Brother Yang, then come back to the village with me."
Actually, I was just unlucky this time because I had few men under my command and didn't dare to attack cities and seize territory. I just set up a stockade in the mountains and forests.
I originally intended to go to the county town to buy some grain to take back, but I unexpectedly ran into that scoundrel Yang Xiong on patrol, and he chased after me with his Black Dragon Riders.
Yang Cheng looked at Zhang Liang in surprise: "So what about your grain? You didn't manage to buy it?"
Zhang Liang patted the bamboo slips in his hand and said, "They're all in here. My sect has a supernatural ability called the Minor Cave Heaven Technique, which can store supplies."
Although it can't hold a huge amount of cargo, it's enough to provide provisions for thousands of people for several months.
Yang Cheng followed Zhang Liang through the forest for half a day, and the forest became more and more secluded.
When Zhang Liang saw the hoofprints on the ground, his expression changed immediately.
"Oh no! Someone's been here!"
Zhang Liang's hand brushed across the bamboo slips, and a gentle breeze immediately enveloped everyone.
In an instant, Yang Cheng felt light as a feather. It wasn't that his speed had increased, but rather that he had become lighter. Even running at high speed now felt like flying.
At this moment, inside Zhang Liang's mountain stronghold, hundreds of Black Dragon Riders were attacking the stronghold.
Although the people in the stronghold were not weak, once the Black Dragon Riders gathered together and their baleful aura solidified, they were like a sharp arrow, crisscrossing and invincible.
It's very difficult to kill a single Black Dragon Rider. Only by killing all of them in one go, like Yang Cheng did before, can the Black Dragon Rider's evil aura be broken.
