Taihuang Star Seal

It turned out that when the Yuan father and son came to knock on the door, Ding Chen had just completed the fusion of the [Water Shadow Illusion Talisman].

【Water Shadow Illusionary Body Talisman】: A mid-grade Xuan-level talisman.

After activation, a water-type "phantom clone" that is exactly the same as the person who activated the talisman can be created.

Although it is just a clone, it is real enough to be indistinguishable from the real thing!

Even the aura is the same!

In addition, the clone created by the [Water Shadow Illusion Talisman] has about 10% of the strength of the real body.

The duration of the clone's existence is related to the spiritual state of the person who activates the talisman.

The higher the soul realm, the longer it lasts.

The shortest is three days and three nights, and the longest is ninety-nine eighty-one days.

According to Ding Chen's speculation, the water shadow clone he condensed would at least exist for ten to twenty days.

The total time it takes for the [Crossing Boundary Spaceship] to depart from the [Tianti Mountain Grand Canyon], fly over the Wuji Mountains, and reach the cultivation world is about seven days.

Ding Chen knew from the beginning that many people were jealous of him for earning a huge amount of spirit stones in the life-and-death battle.

In order to avoid becoming the target of public criticism after entering the world of cultivation.

The moment Ding Chen fused the [Water Shadow Illusion Talisman], he activated it directly and created a water shadow clone.

According to Ding Chen's original plan, he intended to let his clone self-destruct when he was in danger and unable to escape.

He pretended to be "forced into a desperate situation, so he simply detonated his dantian and fought to the death with the enemy."

The real Ding Chen can quietly escape when everyone's attention is attracted by the "clone".

perfect!

So, when he learned that the father and son of the Yuan family came to visit, he decisively activated the mysterious talisman, allowing that identical self to sit calmly at the table.

He also stuffed the two mystical skills that he was going to give to Yuan Ruhuo as a thank you for the "free ticket" into the hands of his clone.

Ding Chen himself took out the huge sword [Chongshan] and leaned against the corner.

Then, he activated a [Breath-Containing Talisman] and combined it with his own secret method of "Turtle Breathing to Calm the Qi", completely concealing his breath and hiding behind the huge sword...

He originally thought that after the other party took the gift of profound skills as a thank you, they would at most exchange a few pleasantries, express their intention to win him over, and then leave.

But he never expected that Yuan's father and son had already harbored murderous intentions towards Ding Chen!

As soon as he came in, he immediately attacked and destroyed Ding Chen's water shadow clone...

Fortunately, it was just a clone.

If it was Ding Chen's real body, he would be caught off guard and attacked.

Even if he can finally succeed in counterattacking, he will definitely pay a heavy price!

Wait until all the dust settles.

Ding Chen then slowly walked out from behind the giant sword leaning against the corner of the wall.

Compared to Ding Chen's calm steps, Yuan Ruhuo, who had collapsed to the ground and was dying, had a look of horror on his face: "You, you are not dead?!"

"How can this be……"

In fact, the water shadow clone only has 10% of Ding Chen's original strength, so the power of its self-detonation is very limited.

It was able to directly kill Yuan Long, who was at the peak of the first level of the Xuanhai Realm. One reason was that he did not use the protective Xuan Qi, and the other was that this thing was close enough.

The reason why Yuan Ruhuo was still alive was because he was relatively far away.

"How could you possibly return the latter?"

"Are you a human or a ghost?"

Faced with Yuan Ruhuo's shocked and terrified questioning, Ding Chen was too lazy to respond.

He casually struck out a palm print, which hit Yuan Ruhuo's chest directly.

With a muffled "bang" sound;

Yuan Ruhuo's heart was shattered by the force of the palm print that "hit the bull from across the mountain"!

Deaths like this one caused by internal injuries would not leave much blood at the scene.

And this is exactly the effect Ding Chen wanted to achieve.

After doing all this, he took off the two people's storage rings with ease.

After the cultivators die, the imprints of their souls left in their [storage rings] also dissipate.

Ding Chen only needs to perform a very simple operation to transfer the soul by dripping blood and take it for himself.

Then, he used a wisp of spiritual perception to probe into the ring space.

First is Yuan Ruhuo's ring——

"Hmm? [Thousand Fire Sect Inner Disciple Order]?"

Ding Chen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "I remember that Xue Xiangxing and Xue Xiangtian also had similar tokens in their storage rings."

"Xue Xiangxing's is the [Qianshui Sect Inner Disciple Order];"

"Xue Xiangtian's is the [Qianshui Sect Outer Disciple Order]."

"This is 'Thousand Waters' and 'Thousand Fires'..."

"Could it be that the sects behind the Four Heavenly Kings of the Tianti Mountain Grand Canyon have some connection with each other?"

In fact, Ding Chen guessed it right.

You know, the way for people in the secular world to go to the cultivation world is, apart from the major sects selecting disciples from various countries from time to time and bringing them back to the sect personally;

There is only one shortcut, the Tianti Mountain Grand Canyon.

Be it the ticket for the [crossing spaceship] or the profit from cutting leeks;

Or it could be the taxes generated by various transactions in Canyon City.

These endless streams of benefits are enough to make people excited even for those "experts" in the cultivation world!

How could someone who can steadily eat this piece of fat meat when surrounded by powerful opponents be just an ordinary person?

Even these benefits gained by the [Tianti Mountain Grand Canyon] are not of interest to those "superior sects" with superior status.

The rare "middle-grade sects" in the cultivation world are not highly regarded.

However, for those "lower-grade sects", the profits from the [Tianti Mountain Grand Canyon] are enough to make them salivate!

In this situation, a single low-grade sect would definitely not be able to live in peace.

After a long period of competition and fighting among many inferior sects;

Eventually, four sects working together monopolized the "transportation business" of the [Tianti Mountain Grand Canyon].

They are the [Qianshui Sect] that Xue Xiangxing relies on;

The Thousand Fire Sect behind Yuan Ruhuo;

The Thousand Thunder Sect behind the Lei family;

And the Qianmu Sect behind the Huo family.

These four sects will unite as one and jointly protect this hard-earned "cake".

But at the same time, there is competition in various aspects within the four major sects.

As time goes on, the conflicts within the sect will inevitably infiltrate the four families in the Tianti Mountain Grand Canyon.

As a result, Xue, Yuan, Lei, and Huo, the "Four Heavenly Kings", have been maintaining a "fighting but not breaking" situation for a long time...

at this time.

Ding Chen searched Yuan Ruhuo's storage ring thoroughly but couldn't find anything decent.

Apart from hundreds of low-grade spirit stones, there were only some middle and low-grade spirit pills and talismans that could be used.

Ding Chen then probed Yuan Long's storage ring with his spiritual perception, and said to himself: "You are a cultivator in the Xuanhai realm after all, there should be something decent in your storage ring, right?"

The next moment, Ding Chen's eyes suddenly focused: "Huh? This is... [Devil Charm Pill]?!"
