Chapter 710 Secret

After the man with the shrill voice finished speaking, he walked out of the side hall.

He didn't care that this was the imperial palace, and he directly performed the "Cloud Soaring Technique" and flew away on a white cloud.

It was indeed a Jindan.

Presumably --

it was the more than 300-year-old Zhenren of the Baihua Dynasty.

This situation surprised Qin Shaochen a little.

He really didn't expect that the Jindan Zhenren of the Baihua Dynasty would appear in the palace of the Great Chu Kingdom.

Are the two families so close?

While he was thinking, the two great spiritualists who came to report the news also walked out of the side hall, crossed the square directly, and left by the original route.

Qin Shaochen didn't hesitate, turned around, and prepared to evacuate.

At this moment, he heard the old voice in the side hall again:

"Since the Taoist friend under the osmanthus tree is here, why don't you come in and see him."

Qin Shaochen was slightly stunned when he heard this.

Damn, he was discovered!

Old Jindan, it's true that there are some tricks.

"Don't be suspicious, fellow Daoist!"

"I have no ill intentions in inviting you to meet me."

"In fact, I have already noticed that you have just entered the palace."

"If I wanted to deal with you, I would have done it long ago."

"I wouldn't have waited until now."

Qin Shaochen couldn't help rubbing his nose.

After a moment of hesitation, he still removed the reaction runes around him.

He took a step and walked towards the side hall.

"I didn't expect that you are so young!"

"You are so young, you can cultivate to the level of earth-level soul master, it's amazing, the Puppet Sect is really amazing! There are so many talents, it's admirable."

The man in the side hall didn't forget to praise Qin Shaochen.

But he didn't know that he guessed wrong from the beginning.

Qin Shaochen certainly wouldn't explain anything.

At the same time, he also understood.

How did the other party find him.

As soon as he put away the reaction rune, the other party immediately "saw" his appearance.

Of course, it was because the other party's consciousness had been around.

It just didn't scan back and forth.

It seems that the Jindan Zhenren in the side hall has been keeping his consciousness open.

No wonder that person said that he was noticed as soon as he entered the palace.

However, although Jindan Zhenren is powerful, it is also very mentally exhausting to keep his consciousness open.

Under normal circumstances, no Zhenren would do that.

Qin Shaochen couldn't help shaking his head.

He walked straight to the door of the side hall.

He looked inside.

The scene in the side hall surprised him a little.

In the middle of the house, the most eye-catching thing was a big bed.

A skinny old man was lying on the bed.

The old man was wearing a dragon robe, but he didn't wear a crown.

He looked like he was sick.

There were more than a dozen eunuchs and palace maids in the hall.

They all knelt on both sides of the bed, bowed their heads, and said nothing.

"You must be surprised, right?"

The old man looked at Qin Shaochen with a pair of triangular eyes, and a slightly miserable smile appeared on his face.

"I have been practicing for 946 years, and I have condensed the golden elixir when I was over 400 years old."

"But I didn't expect that no matter how I practiced for hundreds of years, I could not break through."

"After wasting five hundred years, I still couldn't escape death in the end!"

"After nine hundred years of glory, I ended up like this!"

The old man said as he sat up on the bed.

But just doing such a simple action caused a series of coughs.

He coughed dozens of times before gradually stopping.

His originally sallow face had turned dark red.

"And what makes me most unwilling is not that I am about to die."

"But before I die, I have to be coerced all the time."

"I have to keep my spiritual consciousness open. In order to avoid being attacked by others and end up with a bad end."

"Now, it has become a luxury for me to die peacefully."

Seeing the scene in the side hall and listening to the old man's words, Qin Shaochen couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"So, the Jindan Zhenren just now is not your friend."

"Senior has been opening his spiritual sense to prevent him from killing you!"

"That bastard is certainly not my friend."

The old man smiled bitterly.

"On the contrary, he can be regarded as my enemy."

"I know his mind very well."

"He deliberately stayed by my side under the pretext of visiting me, just to find an opportunity to sneak attack me and send me to the underworld as soon as possible."

"That's why I have to open my spiritual sense and dare not relax for a moment."

"As long as he dares to make a move, I will self-destruct my Jindan!"

"Even if I can't kill that bastard, I can make his cultivation level regress and he will be seriously injured for hundreds of years!"

After speaking, he glanced at Qin Shaochen and squeezed out an ugly smile on his dry face.

"But don't worry, I have a clear distinction between gratitude and resentment."

"I will do whatever it takes to deal with my enemies, but I will naturally not use that kind of means to deal with my friends."

Qin Shaochen laughed dryly.

Still standing at the entrance of the side hall, not approaching.

He had also experienced the self-explosion of Jindan Zhenren once.

It was indeed powerful and had to be guarded against.

"Senior, how do you know that I am a friend, not an enemy."

"Hehe!"

The old man forced a smile.

"I am old and dying, but I am not confused!"

"If I am not mistaken, you must be the national teacher sent by the Puppet Sect."

Qin Shaochen just smiled faintly, neither admitting nor denying.

The old man was refreshed, and his eyes flashed with a gleam of light.

"I am lingering on, pretending to be friendly with that bastard, just waiting for you to show up."

"Wait for me to show up, why?"

"Before I die, I want to make a deal with you."

"Deal?"

Qin Shaochen didn't expect that sneaking into the palace to spy on the enemy's strengths and weaknesses would lead to such a thing.

"I would like to hear more about it!"

"Good!"

The old man nodded with satisfaction.

Suddenly, with a finger raised, more than a dozen golden blades shot out from his hand.

But they were not shot at Qin Shaochen.

Instead, they were shot at the group of eunuchs and palace maids kneeling in the side hall.

More than a dozen people didn't react at all, and fell to the ground in an instant.

Everyone's chest was torn open with a big hole.

At the same time,

they died!

Qin Shaochen was shocked.

He couldn't help but frowned.

"Most of these spineless slaves have been bought by that bastard!"

"Besides, even if no one has been bought, I will not let them live in this world."

"Because the secret I want to tell must not be known to a third person!"

Qin Shaochen snorted in dissatisfaction.

But he did not speak.

The old man smiled bitterly.

"Don't blame me for being too cruel!"

"It's really that the secret I want to tell is too important."

"If you reveal it, the deal between you and me will not be reached."

"What secret!"

Qin Shaochen also saw that the things the old man did were to raise the value of that "secret".

"If you want to know the secret, it's also very simple!"

The old man saw that Qin Shaochen was finally moved, and he couldn't help showing a satisfied smile on his dry face.

"Just make a deal with me."

"Exchange one of your oaths for my secret."

"That is to say, as long as you make an oath to the Heavenly Dao, I will tell you the extremely important secret in its entirety!"

"Humph!"

Qin Shaochen was even more dissatisfied.

"Old man, do you think that by cruelly killing a dozen people, you can make me believe that your secret is extraordinary!"

"You can deceive this young master and make a Taoist oath in a muddle!"

"Senior, do you think I am the kind of person who is easily deceived?"

The old man shook his head.

"How could a genius disciple of the Puppet Sect be easily deceived!"

"I have no intention of deceiving you at all."

"The secret that I am trading is indeed extraordinary!"

"That secret,"

Speaking of this, the old man suddenly lowered his voice.

A strange smile appeared on his face!

"It's related to a very, very, very rare treasure!"

"It can be regarded as the rarest treasure in the world!"

Seeing the old man's exaggeration, Qin Shaochen finally became interested.

"What treasure?"

The old man took a deep breath, stared at Qin Shaochen for a long time with a pair of rather vicious triangular eyes, and then slowly said four words:

"The bones of the dragon!"
