C454 The Undercurrent Surged
As for the men that Escort Chief Sun brought, they were all from the Golden Lion Escort Agency. The Five Dog Escort Agency didn't want to fight the Golden Lion Escort Agency to the death yet, so they just took their storage bags and let them go.
"Hmph, a bastard who refuses to accept a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit!" In the City Lord's Mansion, a middle-aged man in a yellow robe waved his palm. A few beautiful maids in front of him were instantly turned into a bloody mist.
"And that old man, Escort Sun, he also died without regrets. He was unable to accomplish anything, but he was able to ruin my great matter!" The middle-aged man roared angrily, "Su Han and that Ji Chen, you all deserve to die!"
"City Lord, actually, this matter is not unsolvable." A Martial Sovereign Stage expert said, "The major figures of Sun Holy Land said that they want our Lion Tiger City to offer treasures, but they didn't ask the Five Dog Escort Agency to do so!"
"That's why we can be tough and exert pressure on them. At the critical moment, we can kill them!" The Martial Venerable said, "And there are still many ways to obtain the raw gemstone."
"Mm, then you can go and make the arrangements." The Lion Tiger City Lord temporarily calmed his emotions. "I will give you some more time. If you still can't succeed, Su Han, it will be you forcing me to kill you."
"The grand meeting of the Sun Holy Land. Which one of you can participate in it? Which one of you isn't a super power? Which one of you isn't a big shot? If you can witness the elegance of these people and obtain rewards from the Sacred Land, then my Divine Knife Escort Office will be famous throughout the Eastern Victory Divine Continent!"
In the Divine Knife Escort Office, the head of the escort was a middle-aged man with a long beard. "Being able to receive the rewards from the Sacred Land is a golden signboard!"
"Even a Martial Progenitor wouldn't dare to provoke them, because that would be slapping the face of the Sun Holy Land. No one would dare to take such a risk!"
"At that time, my Divine Saber Escort Agency will soar into the sky! That's why I have to get that ore! For this, I can pay any price and use any means! "
It was night. The banquet of Five Dog Escort Agency had finally ended. Ji Chen entered a secret chamber under the lead of Su Han and Su Mei. This secret chamber was in a large hall. Strangely, there were no guards outside the door.
"Young Master Ji, that raw gemstone is in the secret chamber."
Su Han opened the door and led Ji Chen to the secret chamber without hiding anything. "The journey this time is long. We might need to rely on Young Master Ji's ability to escort the raw stone to Sun Holy Land."
Ji Chen walked into the secret chamber and saw the raw stone in front of him. It was a raw stone the size of a cow. It was wrapped in a layer of ancient stone skin, which could isolate a person's mind from probing.
In the five large continents, many strong people, high-ranking officials, and genius goddesses liked to bet on stones, because there was a small chance that many precious things could be found in the stones wrapped in the stone skin.
Just like the raw stone in front of him. Maybe there was really something good inside, or maybe there was nothing inside, but it was this unknown stimulation that drove people crazy and made people rush for it.
"Young Master Ji's background is extraordinary, and his means are superb. I wonder if he can see what is hidden inside." Su Han asked casually.
"This stone gambling event has its own path. It involves geomancy, metaphysics, divination, and spirit arts. It's unfathomable, and it's difficult for ordinary people to understand even the slightest bit of it." Ji Chen shook his head. "I have never majored in this. I shouldn't be able to see through it."
"But I have two friends. One of them has mastered geomancy profound studies, and the other has mastered divination. If they are here, I'm afraid they will be able to see a thing or two."
Ji Chen had investigated as soon as he arrived, but he could not find any clues even after using all his skills.
Ji Chen knew that the biggest reason was because his cultivation base was too weak. A Celestial Stage couldn't see through the cover of this stone.
However, something that could attract the attention of a great figure in a holy land must have some hidden secrets. Through his Super Physique, he was able to confirm that there was indeed something inside, and it was something extraordinary.
"En?" Ji Chen suddenly frowned. A ray of light shot out from the vertical eye between his brows. A thin thread suddenly appeared in the empty hall in front of him.
These silk threads carried a strong blade light, but they were very hidden. Water and fire were wrapped around them. They were extremely sharp and could kill people without being noticed.
"Young Master Ji is really knowledgeable. I didn't expect that his observation ability would be so strong. My formation hasn't even been activated yet, but Young Master has already found it." Su Han's expression changed at first, then he burst into laughter.
Ji Chen understood in his heart. "Is this what Senior Su used to protect the raw stone? To be able to make Senior feel so at ease, it can be seen that this formation is very strong."
Su Mei said with a little pride, "That's of course. This is the strongest formation in our Five Dog Escort Agency. It was accidentally obtained by our family's old ancestor!"
"It has always been our trump card! If it wasn't for this critical moment, we wouldn't be willing to use it!"
"This formation is called the Waterflame Saber Net Formation. There are a total of 108,000 saber silks here, densely covering the entire secret chamber! Anyone who dares to barge in recklessly will suffer the consequences of being dismembered! "
"So that's how it is." Ji Chen smiled slightly. "Due to the reputation of the Sacred Land, those experts will not take the risk to get this unknown raw stone. As for those bandits in the pugilistic world, I'm afraid they will pay the price for their greed!"
After looking at the raw gemstone, Ji Chen went back to his room and laid on the bed with his eyes closed. The Black Monarch was lying beside him, and its eyes were as bright as cold stars. "Young Master, the security bureau is very lively. It's so noisy that the Lun family can't sleep."
After the night, the Five Dog Escort Agency was really lively. Although the guards were very strict, there were still quite a number of people sneaking in. However, these people did it very cleverly, and they still couldn't hide it from Ji Chen and the Black Monarch.
As for what these people wanted to do, it was the lice on the baldy's head. It was obvious that they were trying to steal the raw stones. Apart from this great cause, they couldn't think of any other reason.
"The technical level of these people is too low. They are so noisy that they don't even have the slightest awareness of being porters." Ji Chen was so noisy that he immediately jumped up. "Silly dog, if you can't sleep, then go out and take a look at them."
The man and dog left the room and quietly arrived outside the secret chamber where the raw stones were stored. The spatial energy was surging and completely wrapped around the man and dog. Even Martial Venerables would find it hard to find them.
A figure walked over on tiptoes. After leaping over the layers of restrictions, he walked straight into the secret chamber. The face and expression of this person was covered by a mask, and it was hard to see his face and facial expression. Only his eyes were burning with passion.
"The raw stones!"
When he walked into the secret chamber, he saw the huge Origin stone. The greed in his heart made him lose his rationality for a moment. He walked forward and then his body was divided into dozens of pieces.
A faint thread appeared in the air, and drops of blood dripped onto the thread. The blade was cold, and the water and fire were merciless. A thief who had snuck in died, and the corpse on the ground was burnt to ashes in the blink of an eye.
The moment the formation was activated, Su Han was alarmed. He walked over in secret and looked at everything coldly, but he did not notice Ji Chen, who was very close to him.
This was only the first unlucky person. More and more people had arrived. They had entered the secret room. The blade light flashed, and blood splashed. The screams were very shrill and short, and they stopped abruptly when they were heard.
In just two hours, over a hundred late Deva Realm experts had died in the secret chamber. They couldn't break through the formation at all.
"Senior Su Han, this blade formation of yours is pretty good." Ji Chen's sudden appearance gave Su Han a fright. He almost rolled down from the roof. When he saw that it was Ji Chen, he heaved a sigh of relief.
After Su Han was shocked, he couldn't help but praise, "Young Master Ji's concealment technique is really incredible. It's so amazing that I can't even notice it when it's so close to me. It's really admirable."
"It's just so-so. Actually, this is all thanks to my dog." Ji Chen didn't care about these things. Instead, he looked at the secret room in front of him with great interest. "I'm afraid there are more guests coming tonight. It's really lively."
"Humph, a bunch of idiots. Do they really think that this raw stone is so easy to steal? However, Su Han, even if you were prepared, you are still too confident. You have underestimated our means! "
Someone walked out from the darkness. This person's methods were quite strange. He actually turned into a wisp of smoke and sneaked into the house along with the wind.
"The smoke is shapeless, and it doesn't seem like a body of flesh and blood that can be killed. This guy has some tricks up his sleeve." Ji Chen said with a smile, "Senior Su Han, can this saber formation work?"
"Don't worry, Young Master Ji. Let's just wait and see what happens." Su Han didn't panic at all. He crossed his arms and stood at a high place, watching the show. At this time, Su Mei also came over. Three men and a dog were watching the show.
In just a few breaths of time, a panicked voice came from the secret chamber. The smoke drifted along the wind and suddenly turned into hundreds of pieces in the air.
0
Continuing forward, the hundreds of pieces turned into thousands of pieces. Thousands of pieces of smoke were wriggling crazily. They tried their best to gather into a ball, but they were powerless and couldn't do it.
The power of the blade was too terrifying. It directly broke through the surface and hit the source. The source of this special cultivator was cut off. Even the smoke was useless. It completely shattered and dissipated into thin air. Only some blood was left on the ground.
"There is a formation in the hall. Then why don't I go in? Look, my hand is empty! "Someone appeared outside the hall. He formed a seal with his hands and reached out. A faint light appeared and pulled the stones in the hall.
"This is the White Hair Pirate!" Su Han looked down and saw everything clearly. "It is said that he was killed by the City Lord five thousand years ago. I didn't expect that he didn't die at all. Instead, he became the personal pet of the City Lord."
The white-haired thief saw that his scheme was about to succeed. A faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, but it only lasted for a moment before it froze.
Then, following the lines of his smile, his entire body split into thousands of pieces. Sparkling crystal threads flickered in the air, giving off the feeling of a powerful army.
Ji Chen's third eye could clearly see that just now, the formation in the hall had suddenly expanded. The blade threads had already reached the outside, giving the white-haired thief no chance to resist. This white-haired thief had already died without a burial ground.
"This formation is not bad, it can be said to be one of the best amongst the Martial Venerables." Ji Chen praised, "It seems like senior's ancestors have some tricks up their sleeves, to be able to obtain such a formation. Anyone below the Martial Venerable Realm will have to die if they come."
