System: After the fortune telling, my cultivation level skyrocketed.

Dark clouds filled the sky, and figures rapidly grew larger like black dots. In the blink of an eye, rows of God-Slaying Guards clad in Taoist armor appeared before everyone's eyes.

They were menacing, like a golden steel wall, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression when you looked up at them.

Faced with the imposing and imposing army of the God-Slaying Guards, clad in fine Taoist armor, even Chen Xuan couldn't help but feel an invisible pressure.

Based on Chen Xuan's understanding of the God-Slaying Guards, such a large army, at the same level, would inevitably be able to instantly form a powerful Daoist army formation, which, once activated, would possess earth-shattering power.

In mid-air, Chen Xuan and his group were surrounded by ninety-nine Myriad Manifestation Realm God-Slaying Guards. These God-Slaying Guards had cold expressions, and their eyes revealed a chilling aura of someone who had been through many battles.

They held weapons and stood ready, as if they would launch an attack without hesitation at the captain's command.

The commander of the Imperial Guards, who was leading the way, made his appearance last. He was an extremely handsome young man, wearing Taoist armor that was clearly superior to that of the other Imperial Guards.

The armor was covered with intricate patterns, shimmering with a cold metallic luster under the sunlight, as if telling a story of its extraordinary nature.

The handsome young man first glanced down at the black-robed old man on the ground, whose head had been pierced and who was already dead, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes, before glancing at Chen Xuan and the other man with a touch of arrogance.

"Who goes there? State your name at once!"

Seeing this, Chen Xuan nodded slightly, clasped his hands in a salute to the young man, and said, "We are disciples of the Nine Heavens Profound Purity Palace. We came here to participate in the assessment and join the God-Slaying Guard. However, we did not expect to be attacked before we even entered the Azure Dragon Mountain Range."

"This person is a Nascent Soul Daoist, yet he ambushed and attacked us without cause. We had no choice but to rely on the protective treasures bestowed upon us by our master to kill him in return."

“Yes, yes, yes.” Wang Kaixuan also realized what was happening and quickly chimed in, “My fellow disciple and I originally planned to land and walk to the edge of the God-Slaying Guard’s camp. Who could have predicted that we would be ambushed by evil cultivators near the Azure Dragon Mountains? In order to protect ourselves, we had no choice but to use the treasures bestowed upon us by our master to fight back.”

"What? This dead old man was actually a Nascent Soul cultivator?"

"A disciple of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Purity Palace?"

"The only ones capable of producing a powerful treasure that can instantly kill a Nascent Soul cultivator are probably those monstrous Nascent Soul cultivators from Xuanqing Palace."

"Just as the rumors said, it's best not to provoke the disciples of the Nine Heavens Profound Purity Palace in the wild."

As Chen Xuan and his companion revealed their original positions, the ninety-nine sword-armored soldiers around them began to whisper among themselves, and many of them even looked at Chen Xuan and his companion with a hint of apprehension.

These words even made the captain of the God-Slaying Guard squad take a serious look, and he re-examined Chen Xuan and his companion. Despite killing a Nascent Soul Daoist, the two remained calm...

"Hmph, this person is truly despicable. In recent days, there have been rumors that someone has been impersonating a high-ranking member of the God-Slaying Guard near our Azure Dragon Mountains, extorting and robbing treasures by trickery and force. At first, we didn't believe it, that someone would dare to provoke us, but it turns out it's true?"

Chen Xuan keenly noticed the change in the junior commander's expression and immediately understood what was going on.

He knew that to say that the junior commander knew nothing about this would be to treat him like a fool.

However, since the other party had already come up with an excuse, and the perpetrator had already been killed by him, he decided to pretend he knew nothing about it.

"Hahaha, I never thought that the evil cultivators who have been giving us so much trouble would actually fall into the hands of the two of you."

However, I need to report this matter. I would appreciate it if you two could hand over the evil cultivator's storage magic item and the magic items he used, so that I can have an explanation to give to my superiors.
