The furious roar of Zhan Tian reverberated across the majestic hall.
Momentarily, the two elders locked glares, yet neither uttered another word.
"This..."
Chen Xuan rose, positioned himself between the two elders, and intercepted them, "Gentlemen, no need for such matters!"
Even though Zhan Tian had threatened to notify Emperor Yu, Chen Xuan realized it came from care for Liu Sheng, not wanting him to meet his end in the Stone Cave.
Only he fully grasped the perils lurking within the Stone Cave.
Liu Sheng, however, was ready to brave the danger for his sake, aiding the complete refinement of his jade bones.
A profound gratitude stirred in Chen Xuan's heart, both for his own benefit and others'.
"Hmph!"
The two elders harrumphed coldly, twisting their heads aside to evade each other's stares.
"Heh heh!"
Chen Xuan chuckled lightly; at times, these elders acted just like petulant kids.
"What are you laughing about?!"
Zhan Tian shot him a fierce glare.
"Elder Zhan, calm down, let me speak!"
Chen Xuan stayed composed; he truly couldn't afford to lose his temper.
"The Chief Eunuch is advancing in years, and I won't let him risk it, so I'll head there myself."
"You!"
Liu Sheng grew alarmed; even for him, venturing there meant a chance of death, let alone for Chen Xuan!
"Chief Eunuch, stay calm!"
Chen Xuan remained steady, reassuring him, then pressed on, "I possess some confidence; this isn't mere boasting, please hold on, sirs!"
He glanced toward the entrance and called out, "Enter!"
Moments later, the White-clothed Chief Constable stepped inside, bowing deeply, "Elder Zhan!"
"Brother, I need a drop of your blood essence!"
"What?"
The White-clothed Chief Constable paused in surprise. Requesting his blood essence? Wasn't he aware of its immense value?
He then eyed Zhan Tian for approval.
"Hand it over!"
Zhan Tian commanded, curious about Chen Xuan's plan.
"Yes!"
With Zhan Tian's order, no matter its worth, the blood essence had to be given.
Quickly, a vivid crimson drop of blood essence emerged from his mouth, "Take it!"
Chen Xuan reached out, and the blood essence hovered over his hand.
"Many thanks!"
"This vial of pills serves as your reward."
Chen Xuan tossed him a porcelain bottle; it held top-grade elixirs crafted by Tang Gu.
Upon receiving it, the White-clothed Chief Constable gave a subtle nod.
Chen Xuan pivoted and declared, "Observe closely, gentlemen."
In the next instant, his innate concealment technique activated.
The blood essence atop his palm gradually faded, and as it fully vanished, Chen Xuan's form transformed completely as well.
A short while later!
"Take a good look, sirs!"
He flung his arms wide, even spinning around.
The White-clothed Chief Constable, watching him rotate, stood frozen in shock.
Perfectly identical!
Not only the looks, but the aura matched without the tiniest discrepancy.
Clad in the same attire, even he himself might not distinguish them.
Now, Zhan Tian narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing both the White-clothed Chief Constable and Chen Xuan, probing intently.
But instantly, his heart jolted!
Not even he could differentiate the pair.
Features, presence, and the subtle ripples of their cultivation techniques—all seamlessly alike.
"Can you discern it?"
Zhan Tian queried Liu Sheng.
"Whew——"
Liu Sheng exhaled deeply, quelling the shock within.
Then he shook his head, "I can't tell."
Chen Xuan eyed them, a flicker of smugness in his gaze; he'd showcased this ability before Zhan Tian and Liu Sheng on purpose, testing if they could pierce the disguise.
If they couldn't, his venture into the Stone Cave would be far safer.
Their reactions now... filled him with satisfaction.
"Leave now and seal your lips!"
"Yes... yes, Elder Zhan!"
The White-clothed Chief Constable recovered, responding swiftly before hurrying from the hall.
"What sort of cultivation technique is that?"
"Heaven-defying!"
By now, the two elders in the hall were regaining their poise.
"I never imagined you'd conceal such a technique; no surprise you claimed assurance!"
Zhan Tian sighed.
He'd sensed something peculiar about this youth earlier, transforming via blood essence into its owner's exact likeness, leaving no flaw for him to detect.
"This young man harbors many mysteries!"
His look toward Chen Xuan deepened with intrigue.
"Your thoughts?"
Liu Sheng turned to Zhan Tian and inquired; Zhan Tian's senses outshone his own, and he knew the Stone Cave best.
"It's worth attempting!"
Zhan Tian mulled it over for a second before delivering his response.
Yet Liu Sheng knitted his brows, obviously displeased by the reply.
That's the Stone Cave! Among Great Yu's top three deadliest zones! Chen Xuan's strength means he could perish there without extreme caution.
"Do you have any assurance?"
"What the hell kind of assurance? Did I open the Stone Cave myself?"
Zhan Tian rolled his eyes in annoyance.
Moreover, after so much time elapsed, he remained uncertain about the Stone Cave's current condition too.
"But I sense this kid would be safer venturing in than you."
At those words, Liu Sheng grew quiet.
He weighed carefully if Chen Xuan should enter the Stone Cave or if he should go himself.
"Quit dithering, let him go in. Besides... a master at Peak Eighth Layer Dao Realm—not only entering the Stone Cave, but if the news spreads, it might ignite a war!"
A mighty powerhouse launching a sudden assault would put the Stone Race on edge.
That scenario could readily spark hostilities between the factions.
Hence, Liu Sheng couldn't approach perilous sites without Emperor Yu's consent.
"Nonsense!"
"Do you think I'm an idiot? Go openly?"
Liu Sheng eyed him like a complete moron.
He must accompany him; even staying outside the Stone Cave, he could offer aid if Chen Xuan encountered peril.
