She hadn't expected Jiang Li to agree to the investigation.
This was beyond her expectations.
The prestige of the Nine Palaces Eye Technique was far-reaching, and no matter what methods he used, they would be ineffective under its scrutiny.
This guy...
No matter, let's investigate first.
"Alright, thank you for your cooperation, Young Master Jiang. This investigation will be quick. If there are no issues, our Qilin clan will apologize to you!" Huo Lin'er continued.
"An apology alone isn't enough. I also want your Qilin clan's Nine Palaces Eye Technique!" Jiang Li stated, his gaze calm as he looked at Huo Lin'er.
As soon as Jiang Li spoke, Huo Lin'er's expression turned extremely grim.
This guy was asking for too much.
He demanded their top secret technique just for a simple investigation.
The Nine Palaces Eye Technique was a core secret technique of the Qilin clan; how could it be casually passed on to others?
Lu Yan, standing nearby, also had a dark expression, his aura surging within him.
This fellow dared to covet their core secret technique; he was tired of living.
"Think carefully. Do you agree to Young Master Jiang's terms, or do you want to clash with our Divine Silkworm clan!" Chu Xuan stepped forward and stood resolutely in front of Jiang Li.
With Chu Xuan's words, Lu Yan hesitated to act rashly.
The Divine Silkworm clan had been recuperating for years, not engaging in major conflicts.
No one knew the extent of their reserves.
If they were to clash with the Divine Silkworm clan because of this fellow, the Qilin clan would truly be in considerable danger.
Could it be that he was deliberately provoking me, trying to use this to avoid the investigation...
Huo Lin'er bit her lip slightly, her heart filled with hesitation.
Chu Xuan stood quietly by Jiang Li's side, also prepared to unleash her powerful trump cards and escape if anything went wrong.
"Fine, I agree!" Huo Lin'er took a deep breath, suppressing her thoughts.
This guy definitely has something to hide...
Lu Yan, seeing Huo Lin'er agree, didn't say much more.
In any case, Huo Lin'er was in charge now.
"Then I'll trouble Elder Yan. Please ensure you check thoroughly!" Huo Lin'er then said to Lu Yan beside her.
Lu Yan nodded. "Princess, leave it to me!"
Immediately, the surrounding Qilin clan members retreated, and Chu Xuan also moved to the side, leaving the space for Jiang Li and Lu Yan.
"Nine Palaces Eye Technique, open!!!"
Lu Yan shouted, his spiritual power surging violently within him, circulating madly. The entire area was engulfed in a fierce oppressive aura.
Jiang Li also felt a faint sense of pressure, his blood boiling within him.
Immediately, Lu Yan's eyes became incredibly deep, as if mysterious runes were swirling within them.
Under Lu Yan's gaze, the entire area flickered with the signs of collapse.
Jiang Li felt a tingling sensation on his skin.
He knew that was the power of the Nine Palaces Eye Technique probing his physical body.
As the eye technique unfolded, the jade pendant given by the Grand Elder of the Divine Silkworm clan lost its luster.
Jiang Li felt no fear. After being cleansed by the Primordial Qi.
The lingering bloodline imprint within him had already been completely washed away.
There were no flaws left.
"Princess, Young Master Jiang does not have the bloodline imprint of our Qilin clan!" After a long while, seeing that there were indeed no issues, Lu Yan retracted his eye technique and said to Huo Lin'er not far away.
Chu Xuan's heart relaxed. Although she didn't know how Jiang Li managed it,
As long as there were no problems, that was enough.
Huo Lin'er's brows were tightly furrowed. There really wasn't...
"Alright, I understand. Thank you for your hard work, Elder Yan!" Huo Lin'er said to Lu Yan, her eyes filled with exhaustion.
If this guy wasn't the one either, then who was the real culprit?
Huo Lin'er was completely lost.
Moreover, she had to give this fellow their Qilin clan's core secret technique.
"Alright, since your investigation found no issues, then my Nine Palaces Eye Technique..." Jiang Li smiled slightly and continued.
...
Central Continent.
Chaos Holy Land.
Haoyang Palace.
Within the halls of Haoyang Palace, surging spiritual energy filled the air.
Surrounding them were many spiritual plants brimming with potent spiritual energy.
The entire palace was resplendent with flowing light and filled with spiritual energy.
Above the palace stood a handsome young man, imposing and exuding an aura of chaos.
The young man held a Chaos Holy Crystal in each hand, continuously absorbing the power from them.
In a short while, both holy crystals were fully absorbed by the young man, and his aura fluctuated slightly.
"Divine Son, two days ago, several ancient demon clan elders perished in the Primordial Divine Mountain, and the Supreme Emperor artifact, the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron, completely broke free from control under Chen Daokou's secret technique and has now fallen into the Dark Abyss!"
A respectful voice sounded.
At the palace entrance, a disciple of the Chaos Holy Land dressed in a purple robe walked in slowly, his eyes filled with fervent devotion.
"Oh, the Supreme Emperor artifact is no longer in the Primordial Divine Mountain?" Xiao Yun, above the palace, slowly opened his eyes, a brilliant black glow within them.
"Reporting to Divine Son, that is correct. The Supreme Emperor artifact, the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron, is indeed in the abyss. Many forces have already caught wind of this and are preparing to move!" the purple-robed disciple continued.
Supreme Emperor artifact... Interesting.
Just in time, I'll use this opportunity to make my name known throughout the entire Ancient Wilderness Continent, Xiao Yun mused inwardly.
...
Primordial Divine Mountain.
In the cultivation chamber of the Divine Silkworm clan.
Jiang Li was comprehending a new divine-tier secret technique, the Nine Palaces Eye Technique, in the cultivation chamber.
After Lu Yan's inspection, despite her reluctance, Huo Lin'er still handed over the Nine Palaces Eye Technique to Jiang Li.
Afterward, Jiang Li and Chu Xuan left the Qilin clan and returned to the Divine Silkworm clan.
Jiang Li practiced this powerful eye technique according to the cultivation method within the secret technique.
The Nine Palaces Eye Technique was a divine-tier eye technique, possessing immense power and mysterious capabilities.
Although it was only divine-tier, eye techniques were already extremely rare secret techniques. The value of the peak-grade divine Nine Palaces Eye Technique was already comparable to an ordinary imperial-tier secret technique.
Of course, the difficulty of cultivating this secret technique was also very high, requiring exceptional comprehension.
With the aid of the Dao Comprehension Stone, Jiang Li quickly grasped a trace of its profundity.
Dazzling, captivating streams of light flowed within Jiang Li's eyes, as if possessing incredibly miraculous profundity.
Three days later.
Jiang Li finally achieved rudimentary mastery of the Nine Palaces Eye Technique and could use it preliminarily.
"Next, I should comprehend the power of laws!" Jiang Li murmured inwardly.
After achieving rudimentary mastery of the Nine Palaces Eye Technique, rapid proficiency would require the accumulation of time and could not be easily achieved.
