Yin Boqing steadied his true form and looked up to see Lu Chen proudly riding on the back of the Treasure Guardian Beast, resembling a general on his steed, exuding great majesty.
"Well, my good disciple, to think you would use a sneak attack against me, you truly have some skill."
Yin Boqing steadied his body and emotions, speaking to Lu Chen with a tone full of sarcasm, enunciating each word clearly.
The combination of Lu Chen and the Treasure Guardian Beast had indeed caused Yin Boqing some injury through cunning schemes, but for Yin Boqing, it was hardly significant.
"Master, I apologize, but no one can stop my progress; this is fate. I am merely following the path of fate," Lu Chen said calmly from atop the Treasure Guardian Beast.
Just moments ago, he had been directly blasted out by Yin Boqing into the Cosmic Starry Sky. When he hesitated and felt hopeless, he unexpectedly encountered the Treasure Guardian Beast.
"Haha, speaking of fate and destiny as if you are truly the son of destiny is quite laughable," Yin Boqing remarked while standing tall, his tone dripping with mockery, likely ridiculing Lu Chen as a false idealist and a pretender of justice.
"Lu Chen follows the true path, while you obstruct him; you are acting against it. Although you are already a Void Immortal, advancing further will surely be exceedingly difficult," the Treasure Guardian Beast said as it landed on the ground, glaring at Yin Boqing with its wide eyes.
"Hmph, no need for more words. No one will leave here today. You all flaunt your false ideals and deceive others; you will all perish," Yin Boqing declared with a wave of his sleeve, preparing to strike.
Suddenly, Yin Boqing's expression froze as he turned to look towards the direction of the Five Element Sect, listening intently for any movements from that side. It seemed something had occurred at the Five Element Sect.
"Don't waste time talking to him; let's attack together!" someone shouted after being knocked down by Yin Boqing. The crowd quickly got up and charged at Yin Boqing.
Yin Boqing snorted coldly as a beam of light shot out from his body and sped towards the Five Element Sect. It was clear that something was indeed amiss there, forcing Yin Boqing to leave.
However, while one Yin Boqing departed, another remained in place, identical to the real Yin Boqing in every way. This scene left everyone stunned.
"Dual Incarnation," the Treasure Guardian Beast murmured. It had thought Yin Boqing was merely a Void Immortal, but it now appeared that reality was far more complex than that.
To achieve Yin Immortal, there are a total of fifteen realms. The first four are Disembodiment, Spirit Travel, Dharmakaya, and Void Immortal, which are the four major realms. After Void Immortal, there are still ten more realms to reach Yin Immortal.
At this moment, Yin Boqing is at the second realm after Void Immortal, called Dual Aspect Yin Spirit, which is akin to having an avatar of his own.
Due to unexpected changes in the Five Element Sect, Yin Boqing had to leave, but he only manifested a clone to return and suppress the situation while the other half of his clone remained here to deal with Lu Chen and the others.
"With the Dual Aspect Yin Spirit separated, his strength must be diminished. Let's all attack together," said the Treasure Guardian Beast as it carried Lu Chen.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone responded immediately. They raised their weapons and charged toward the stationary Yin Boqing.
Yin Boqing's flesh did not move, but he released Immortal Aura from within himself to suppress everyone.
However, at this moment, everyone was too focused on the attack. Under the leadership of the Treasure Guardian Beast, a Void Immortal, they all rushed forward.
In an instant, twenty or thirty people surrounded Yin Boqing, each exerting their full strength. Yet Yin Boqing seemed unfazed by their combined assault; he stood still while rapidly swinging his arms to unleash waves of thick Yin Yuan Power.
At that moment, the Treasure Guardian Beast suddenly leaped out and opened its mouth wide, projecting a massive fiery red inner dan toward Yin Boqing.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Yin Boqing's expression changed as he was caught off guard and was sent flying by the inner dan from the Treasure Guardian Beast.
"Quickly retreat!"
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Chen shouted at everyone. They exchanged glances and began to back away quickly toward Yushan Kingdom.
Lu Chen rode on the back of the Treasure Guardian Beast. Once it retracted its inner dan, he also turned to flee from the scene.
Feeling the pressure lessen suddenly, Yin Boqing regained his composure and saw that Lu Chen had already ridden away on the Treasure Guardian Beast, leaving behind a dozen corpses.
Yin Boqing waved his sleeve and coldly snorted. Normally, he would not let Lu Chen and the others leave so easily.
However, today there were some matters within the Five Element Sect that required his attention as the Vice Master Supreme, so he could only watch Lu Chen and the others depart.
After Lu Chen and the others disappeared, Yin Boqing did not rush to pursue them but stood quietly in place, gazing into the distance with a deep light flickering in his eyes, shining brighter than a mirror.
On the other side, after escaping from the battlefield, Lu Chen rode on the Treasure Guardian Beast and fled without looking back.
"Lu Chen, I know you truly wouldn't capture me. Your intentions were good, and I only understood that now. Thank you for saving me."
The Treasure Guardian Beast carried Lu Chen swiftly, its limbs moving gracefully in the sky, surprisingly fast.
"I'm glad you understand. By the way, why did you go into the Cosmic Starry Sky and then come back?" Lu Chen asked the Treasure Guardian Beast.
The Treasure Guardian Beast replied, "The Void Starry Sky is too lonely, filled with cold and endless darkness. I couldn't find a suitable place for my cultivation there, so I returned. I stayed outside for a while and unexpectedly ran into you."
Lu Chen and the Treasure Guardian Beast met by chance, and it was only now that the Treasure Guardian Beast expressed its thoughts.
Due to its low intelligence, it took nearly half a month to see through a person's true nature. However, it now truly understood Lu Chen's intentions and realized that Lu Chen was not someone who genuinely wanted to harm it.
Upon hearing this from the Treasure Guardian Beast, Lu Chen immediately understood. The beast had returned because it felt too lonely in the Cosmic Starry Sky, which meant it would not leave again in the future.
"I see. In that case, I will do my best to find a suitable place for your cultivation so you can comprehend The Path of Yin Immortals," Lu Chen said sincerely to the Treasure Guardian Beast.
The man and beast flew quickly and soon caught up with Princess Zhulan and her entourage, who had left earlier.
Princess Zhulan and her group had been the first to escape from the battlefield and had run desperately for several dozen miles.
Lu Chen and the Treasure Guardian Beast landed near the convoy and noticed that everyone looked disheveled, and there seemed to be fewer people than before.
After a thorough count, the core personnel were unharmed and mostly intact, while two of the Qi Masters dispatched by Sun Zizhao had died.
Additionally, four Bear Demon Death Warriors were killed, and all of the Shark-Slaying Eight Guards perished.
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen closed his eyes in sorrow; personnel casualties were the last thing he wanted to see, especially when they were not even his own.
Meanwhile, Yue Shaoting stood frozen in place, her head bowed in silence.
Since the Yue Family had come out, she was now the only one left. Her closest subordinates, the Shark-Slaying Eight Guards, had all been wiped out here, completely destroyed, so her feelings at this moment were understandable.
At this time, the sky was exceptionally blue and clear, with no clouds in sight. Everyone was looking at Yue Shaoting but had nothing to say.
The Shark-Slaying Eight Guards did not die in vain; they sacrificed themselves to delay Yin Boqing's advance. The four Bear Demon Death Warriors also died honorably, showcasing their universal values.
However, the team still needed to continue on their journey. The treasure had not been delivered to Dama Town's Naval Base, which meant it could not be considered a success.
The long caravan passed in front of Heishuiguan, immediately attracting the attention of the Heishuiguan Commander and causing a stir among the soldiers.
However, upon seeing the enormous figure of the Treasure Guardian Beast leading the way, they all shrank back, and the Commander did not dare to come out and question them.
The caravan directly bypassed Heishuiguan and headed towards a nearby city.
This city was a port quietly standing beside the Blackwater River.
The caravan loaded with treasure went straight to the port, where Princess Zhulan arranged for ships to load large boxes onto them.
Two hundred steps of cargo ships were needed to fully load three vessels with all of the treasure.
For safety's sake, everyone did not linger in this city; after a brief supply stop, the three large ships set sail.
The Treasure Guardian Beast, due to its massive size, could not fit into the cabin and had to remain on the deck, lying quietly.
Of course, the others also did not enter the cabin; they moved all the tables and chairs onto the deck, leisurely basking in the sun while eating, drinking, and having fun.
Two ships carrying only treasure chests sailed at the front, while Lu Chen and his companions were on a ship at the back.
The Blackwater River was not wide, but the current was very swift, allowing the ships to move forward easily without needing to row, maintaining a steady pace.
After an hour or two, the river gradually widened, and the flow slowed down, indicating that they were approaching the Naval Base of Yushan Kingdom.
Since Princess Zhulan and her uncle Adolf had been corresponding regularly, it was only natural that the Blackwater River had been put under martial law in advance, prohibiting any vessels from passing through.
In the afternoon, Lu Chen and his companions successfully arrived, with a Navy official ship arriving early to escort them, guiding the treasure-laden vessels into the port of Dama Town.
This money was to be handed over to Naval Minister Adolf for allocation. Under his name, they would procure supplies at significant discounts, and various channels would be much smoother. Naturally, Lu Chen and his companions were more than happy about this.
