"You can't find the poison master. There is only one possibility. He is somewhere underground in Yanjing, using the earth's qi to isolate his own aura!" Yan Chuan said solemnly.
"Yes!" King Dugu Jian stabilized his emotions and nodded.
"He wants to poison the whole city. He has set up a feng shui formation. While releasing the poison, he has also revealed a flaw!" Yan Chuan said solemnly.
"What are you going to do?"
"Set up a formation! You help me set up another formation again. Use formation against formation. Not only can it clean up all the toxins in the city, but it can also quickly find his location!" Yan Chuan said solemnly.
"I don't know feng shui formations!" King Dugu Jian shook his head.
"It's fine if I know!" Yan Chuan smiled.
"Oh? Alright, tell me, what should we do!" King Dugu Jian nodded and said.
"Since you cultivate with swords, naturally your swordsmanship is unique. Around Yanjing, there are four great earth dragon veins. Under our feet is the end of one of the dragon veins. Now, carve this mountain into the shape of a dragon head. The dragon head is facing Yanjing, in a state of roaring with an open mouth!" Yan Chuan said solemnly.
"Under our feet here?" King Dugu Jian frowned and looked at Yan Chuan.
"Hehe, I know what you are thinking. Don't worry. I didn't know you were following me before. I brought Yan Wudi here to overlook Yanjing. It was just a coincidence!" Yan Chuan shook his head.
"Um!" Only then did King Dugu Jian feel relieved.
"Let's go down the mountain first. You observe this rocky mountain and then start carving!" Yan Chuan said.
Liu Jin quickly packed up everything.
"Drive!"
A group of people quickly rode their horses down the mountain and soon reached several miles away.
At another small hilltop, everyone stopped. They all looked into the distance.
King Dugu Jian stared at the entire mountain, pondered for a while, and suddenly narrowed his eyes.
"Clang!"
The precious sword was unsheathed, and immediately a sword light cut off a corner of the mountain top.
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
...
A series of sword sounds rang out. Streams of sword lights crazily shot towards that mountain peak.
"Boom!"
A large number of gravel on the mountain top flew off, and dust soared into the sky. Thick dust rolled up and soon covered that mountain peak.
"Boom!"
King Dugu Jian didn't stop for a moment and kept cutting crazily.
"Your Highness, King Dugu Jian is acting so quickly. Will there be a mistake?" Liu Jin worried.
"Quick? For a sword cultivator, this speed is slow. He won't make a mistake. At his current realm, the sword and he have become one!" Yan Chuan shook his head.
"Yes!" Liu Jin nodded.
"Boom!"
With a final loud bang, the rumbling suddenly stopped.
"Whoosh!"
King Dugu Jian waved his hand, and a strong wind blew past. In an instant, all the dust around disappeared.
"Whoa!" Yan Wudi exclaimed in surprise.
The original mountain peak disappeared. In its place was a huge dragon head, a dragon head as tall as a mountain. With glaring eyes and majestic roaring, it was extremely imposing and directly facing Yanjing.
"So powerful!" Liu Jin exclaimed in surprise.
"Let's go!"
"Drive!"
A group of people came to the top of the dragon head again.
"Is it okay now?" King Dugu Jian flew over and asked.
Yan Chuan ignored him. Instead, he took out the Jade Emperor Sword and thrust it into the center of the dragon head's brow!
"Clang!"
The center of the dragon head's brow was pierced. Yan Chuan pulled out the Jade Emperor Sword and cut his finger. Immediately, he forced out some blood and dripped it into the gap pierced by the dragon head.
"Buzz!"
The dragon head mountain suddenly trembled slightly.
"What are you doing?" King Dugu Jian asked in confusion.
"Blood induction. I am not a feng shui master. So to manipulate a feng shui formation, I must use my blood as an inducement to activate it!" Yan Chuan said solemnly.
"Oh!" King Dugu Jian still didn't understand.
"Huo Guang, find a stone about one zhang in size from the rocks that were just cut off!"
"Yes!"
Soon, a large stone was brought forward.
Looking at this large stone, Yan Chuan flipped the Jade Emperor Sword in his hand.
"Clang clang clang clang clang!"
As the Jade Emperor Sword flipped, in an instant, this one-zhang stone was also carved into the shape of a dragon head.
The appearance was exactly the same as the mountain-shaped dragon head carved by King Dugu Jian.
"Good swordsmanship!" King Dugu Jian exclaimed in surprise.
Yan Chuan pressed his finger on the center of the small dragon head's brow, and blood stained the center of the dragon head's brow.
"Send this small dragon head to the military training ground in Yanjing. Have people guard it. No one is allowed to touch it!" Yan Chuan said to ten Brocade Guards.
"Yes!"
The ten Brocade Guards carefully carried the dragon head away.
"Alright, the first dragon head is done. There are still three left. King Dugu Jian, let's go!" Yan Chuan said.
"Good!" King Dugu Jian nodded.
...
At Xingluo Mountain Villa. In the valley within the valley.
An old man in white, Grand Tutor Yi Feng, was casually sleeping on the dock.
Several servants carefully attended to him. Yi Feng's grandson was also waiting among them.
"Ah!"
Yawning, Yi Feng woke up.
"Grandpa, you're awake!" The middle-aged man immediately came forward.
"How long have I been asleep?" Yi Feng asked.
"Four hours." The middle-aged man immediately said.
"Four hours? Oh, I'm getting old!" Yi Feng gave a slight bitter smile.
"Grandpa, breakfast has been prepared for you!"
"Well, I'll eat here!" Yi Feng said.
"Yes!"
Soon, a group of servants brought a large amount of delicious food.
As Yi Feng ate breakfast, he asked, "Has he made a move?"
"Yes!"
"Oh? Which move?" Yi Feng's expression perked up.
"Grandpa, eat first. After you finish eating, we can..."
"Hahaha, which move? Tell me. His move is the best delicacy!" Yi Feng laughed.
"It's flat eight six!"
"Flat eight six? Pressing step by step!" Yi Feng's expression suddenly became solemn, and the dish on his chopsticks also stopped.
"Grandpa, you'd better not think about it. After eating, let's go look at the chessboard. You can play against the board and soon you will win him!"
"No, blind chess is blind chess! I am already on my last legs. It's not easy to meet a worthy opponent. How can I waste it? Hahaha!" Yi Feng said freely.
In the outer valley.
There were fewer and fewer people watching the chess. At this moment, all the chess masters were no longer able to watch.
At this moment, all the chess masters could only smile bitterly. Watching chess until spitting blood? What a joke. But that's the truth. Unless you don't watch carefully. As long as you focus on experiencing it, your mind will immediately be immersed in it until you collapse.
However, all the chess masters noticed that there were one woman and five men who had been staring at the chessboard all this time.
It was Meng Rongrong and Changqing and the other five.
At this moment, there was no new move. The six people sat in a corner.
"Miss, I can't do it anymore. Looking at the chessboard makes me dizzy!" One of them said with a bitter smile.
"This game has exceeded your realm by a lot. You'd better not look at it anymore!" Meng Rongrong shook her head.
"Yes!" That person said with a bitter smile.
Changqing also showed a hint of strangeness and said, "Miss, I really didn't expect that Yi Feng and Yan Chuan's chess skills would be so strong. So strong that only those great scholars in the academy can compare!"
"Yes. The realm of these two people is extremely rare in the world of cultivating immortals! And..." Meng Rongrong frowned.
"And what?" Changqing asked curiously.
"That Yi Feng is actually playing blind chess!" Meng Rongrong said solemnly.
"Blind chess? Impossible!" Changqing exclaimed in surprise.
Blind chess means playing without looking at the chessboard. Remembering every move. It's fine if there are few moves. Now, Yan Chuan and Yi Feng have already made hundreds of moves.
"It is indeed blind chess! When I left earlier, I went to investigate." Meng Rongrong shook her head.
"Ah?" Everyone was speechless.
"Can such a monstrous talent appear among mortals?" Changqing said speechlessly.
"With such talent, not introducing him to the academy is a pity!" Meng Rongrong suddenly said.
"Miss? His natural aptitude is extremely poor. Moreover, he is already ninety-two years old and already very old. Even if you give him enough resources, ten times or a hundred times more resources, he still can't overcome the tribulation. A single bolt of heavenly thunder can shatter him. It's useless!" Changqing said.
"Useless? Not necessarily. As long as I want it!" Meng Rongrong shook her head.
"Pills? Chongjing Pills? But these pills are extremely precious. The spiritual stone resources that can be exchanged for one Chongjing Pill can create two powerful cultivators at the divine realm. Using it on him, wouldn't it be..." Changqing frowned.
"Wasteful? It's not wasteful. This person is worthy!" Meng Rongrong shook her head.
"But...alright!" The five people were envious.
"After this game of chess is over, I will go see him and try my best to lead him into my Julu Academy!" Meng Rongrong said solemnly.
"Miss, don't worry. Yi Feng has spent his whole life seeking longevity but couldn't obtain it. Now that he is favored by Miss, it is his good fortune. If he can enter the academy to cultivate, he will definitely be grateful. This is his honor!" Changqing affirmed.
"Um!" Meng Rongrong nodded.
...
At Yanjing's military training ground.
The bloodstains left from the massacre a few days ago have been cleaned up.
According to Yan Chuan's request, a hundred Brocade Guards placed the four dragon heads in four different directions on the military training ground. The dragon heads faced each other, with glaring eyes and majestic appearances.
Yan Chuan, Yan Wudi, and King Dugu Jian stood in the center where the four dragon heads were facing.
"What is this?" King Dugu Jian asked curiously.
"This is called the 'Four-Dragon Matrix'! These four small dragon heads correspond to four dragon veins and are tainted with the dragon qi of the four dragon veins. When I activate the Four-Dragon Matrix, the four dragon veins will simultaneously spout dragon qi and pour it into Yanjing, forcing all the feng shui poisons to this place. The feng shui poison cannot spread and will necessarily flow back in reverse and flow towards the poison master. At that time, you can follow the feng shui poison and find the poison master!" Yan Chuan said solemnly.
"Good, good, good. Start now!" King Dugu Jian said excitedly.
"Not now. Let me wait for a few days!" Yan Chuan shook his head.
"Wait for a few days? Why? Why not now?"
King Dugu Jian didn't want to wait for a moment. The sooner the poison master was killed, the better. He was impatient and couldn't wait to see the poison master immediately.
"In one or two days at the least, and five or six days at the most. You have waited for so many days. Don't you care about these few days?" Yan Chuan refused.
King Dugu Jian stared at Yan Chuan and fell silent in frustration.
"Alright!"
Needing Yan Chuan's help, King Dugu Jian had to nod in the end.
After seeing off King Dugu Jian, Liu Jin asked in confusion, "Your Highness, why do we have to wait for a few days?"
Yan Chuan looked up at the sky and took a deep breath. "It's almost here. It's almost here!"
"Ah?" Liu Jin was at a loss.
"Go to the palace and move all daily necessities here. In these few days, I will live at this military training ground!" Yan Chuan said solemnly.
"Yes!" Although Liu Jin didn't understand, he still obeyed.
