Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting with brother's wife and young sister Chapter 1001 514: Hidden Kill! Ten Great Dangerous Lands!

"It's the Rule of Stars that I have integrated into my eyes, which is why it has such an effect."

"Like that Miss Yao Er of the Shadow Guard?"

"Her?"

The Hall Master burst into laughter, "You little rascal, you truly underestimate your elder!"

He shook his head in a vexed manner.

"Eh?"

Chen Xuan looked embarrassed, "Apologies, Hall Master. I spoke hastily without proper thought, please forgive my transgression."

"Forget it!"

The Hall Master gestured dismissively, not truly angered, and patiently elaborated, "That young lady had virtual reality rules integrated by the National Preceptor, but merely about one ten-thousandth of it."

"Even so, it's already remarkably impressive."

"However, my eyes contain the entirety of the Star Dao, and the Rule of Stars is a full tier superior to virtual reality."

"Do you understand now?"

Hiss—

Chen Xuan inhaled sharply. The complete Star Dao had been fused into his very eyes.

No wonder his gaze glittered like distant stars.

What a foolish question he had posed.

He felt a wave of mortification wash over him.

"By the way, is there a limit to merging such rules into parts of the body?"

Chen Xuan's knowledge of rules was exceedingly scant, and now, encountering the Hall Master, he resolved to seize the opportunity to inquire.

"There isn't a strict limit; it hinges entirely on one's capacity to bear it."

"If you cannot endure it, the consequence is a physical explosion. This has occurred numerous times, so you must comprehend: never be greedy!"

"Hmm! I understand!"

Chen Xuan nodded, recognizing the Hall Master's earnest guidance.

"Take this!"

The Hall Master then produced a key. "This grants access to the Star Hall Library Pavilion. You likely know very little about this subject; go and peruse the texts yourself. Should anything remain unclear, do not hesitate to seek me out."

The Star Hall Library Pavilion!

Chen Xuan accepted it with haste, uttering, "Thank you, esteemed Hall Master."

"Go forth. Once Xiaoqi awakens, I shall instruct him. It may require some time."

"Yes!"

Chen Xuan cast a final glance at Xiaoqi before departing.

After his exit, the Hall Master gestured, cloaking the entire main hall in an unseen barrier, yet his gaze remained fixed on the path Chen Xuan had taken. "Could it truly be him?"

...

Within the precincts of the Ritual Department.

"What? Did the Hall Master truly utter such words?"

"Nonsense! I would never jest about a matter of such gravity!"

Zhan Tian responded with palpable irritation.

"What course of action shall we take now?"

Faced with his inquiry, Liu Sheng lapsed into a contemplative silence.

"Speak your mind!"

Observing Liu Sheng's unhurried response, devoid of any apparent urgency, Zhan Tian's temper flared.

"Do you genuinely believe you possess the capacity to persuade His Majesty?"

Liu Sheng slightly elevated his gaze to meet Zhan Tian's.

"At the very least, we can attempt, can we not?"

Persuasion, after all, commences with the act of speaking, does it not?

"Rest assured, any course of action we might conceive has undoubtedly been pondered by His Majesty as well. Otherwise, the path to war would not be so readily forged. Simply wait!"

"You...!"

Witnessing the subtle shift in Zhan Tian's expression, Liu Sheng sensed an underlying disquiet, yet struggled to precisely articulate its nature.

"I suspect our Emperor intends to resolve all outstanding matters before taking that decisive final stride."

"Thus, his probability of success may be significantly elevated!"

Liu Sheng elucidated his thoughts gradually.

That day, he had found it peculiar; although Emperor Yu had solicited their counsel, it felt as though a decision had already been firmly made in his heart.

Reflecting upon it, it wasn't merely his own solitary suspicion.

"Are you suggesting that His Majesty harbored intentions of purging these perilous territories for a considerable time, and now, with the Stone Race weakened and Duke Yuan's proposal, he has merely seized the opportune moment?"

"Precisely!"

Liu Sheng nodded slowly, then cast his gaze outward. "The Emperor's heart is truly unfathomable!"

"Then... should we refrain from intervention?"

Despite his words, Zhan Tian remained deeply concerned. Nearly all the gold-clothed members of the Three Judicial Departments had been dispatched, along with half of the white-clothed contingent. Should they perish, the Three Judicial Departments would be left with scarcely a semblance of operational capacity.

"That is out of the question!"

Liu Sheng decisively shook his head. Preparations were indeed necessary. "Both of our avatars must venture forth, but whom shall we entrust as companions?"

This particular consideration presented him with a degree of quandary.

The mission demanded absolute discretion; it must be clandestine, acting only at the precipice of necessity.

In that exact moment!

Both individuals spoke in near unison, "That young man!"

...

"Damn it all!"

Within the ethereal confines of a space fissure, Chen Xuan expressed his profound displeasure. Being dispatched to the Stone Cave, he surveyed the array diagram clutched in his hand, wherein the hidden avatars of Liu Sheng and Zhan Tian resided.

He had been reveling in his perusal within the Star Hall Library Pavilion when an abrupt summons arrived from Liu Sheng, demanding his immediate presence at the Ritual Department.

Ultimately, they had relegated the arduous task to him.

He felt utterly swindled!

Were it any other individual, he would have remained indifferent.

However, with two venerable elders openly exerting their influence, refusal was simply not an option.

Both were deeply indebted to him.

"Alright, alright, I'll just be the errand boy!"

Chen Xuan let out a helpless sigh.

He was just a man of sentiment!

However, instead of heading directly to the Stone Cave, he decided to make a stop at the Bright Moon Mansion. Since the army's pace was rather slow, arriving early wouldn't achieve much. He instructed Lang Fei there, asking him to send a message once the army arrived at the Bright Moon Mansion. Afterward, he returned to the Primordial Realm.

With such a monumental undertaking by Great Yu, Hidden Kill, as its rival, inevitably received the news without delay.

At Tangyun Lake.

Yuan Qing approached Zhou, meticulously relaying the details of Great Yu's troop deployment towards the Stone Cave.

"Qin Yu intends to make a move against the Stone Cave?"

Zhou's brows furrowed slightly, a touch of confusion clouding his expression regarding Qin Yu's abrupt decision to act.

He possessed a more profound understanding of Great Yu's circumstances than anyone else.

Especially considering how the Ten Great Dangerous Lands had nearly plunged Great Yu into ruin.

It was precisely this vulnerability that allowed Hidden Kill to flourish with such impunity.

"Based on the intelligence, Liu Sheng initiated the action, resulting in the demise of two Stone Race patriarchs. The Stone Race is currently at its weakest point; perhaps this is the reason for their chosen timing!"
