You Zhen had actually been ready to make his move earlier, but he was stopped by Yu Ziqing.
In this place, if You Zhen were to strike, it was likely he couldn't kill Li Liangqiu of the Jinyi Wei.
He was just a leg of the old Emperor Zhen, sealed for so many years, and afterward turned Devilic and then recovered. This leg's power was significant enough for a close-range ambush, easily killing other cultivators even if they had relatively strong defense magical treasures.
His strength could directly shake a Qi Refinent or Refining God cultivator to death inside their magical treasures without breaking them.
But against an Eighth Tier Body Cultivation, as a body cultivator himself, he knew he probably couldn't kill the opponent instantly.
As long as he couldn't kill instantly, he couldn't stop the opponent.
Moreover, his presence here ant exposure.
Yu Ziqing simply sent him a transmission, summarizing briefly, then took a risky move.
Yu Ziqing didn't want You Zhen to be exposed here, and at the sa ti, didn't want that Li Liangqiu of the Jinyi Wei to survive.
Previously, he had heard, there was a fierce internal conflict within the Daqian lately, where the Crown Prince and several Princes, along with their supporters, launched attacks on each other, resulting in nurous deaths below.
Unexpectedly, the Daqian still had the capacity to pay attention to this side of things, and even sent an Eighth Tier Jinyi Wei Commander himself.
This surprised Yu Ziqing a little.
King Xiang causing trouble in the Hengduan Mountains already drew the attention of many, and the fight King Xiang had with people, yet this Jinyi Wei Commander was still so cautious and sharp.
"Better go over and have a look, I won't feel at ease unless I'm certain he's completely dead."
Yu Ziqing insisted.
Old Yang and You Zhen were montarily speechless, a bit worried too, as indeed, if such a Fourth Grade official died here, the Daqian Divine Dynasty would surely know imdiately.
As soon as the soul lamp extinguished, it would be obvious.
You Zhen continued to hide, as it was unsuitable for him to reveal too much presence.
Yu Ziqing took out a filth bucket and a Demonic Qi bucket, collecting all the filth and Demonic Qi perating the area.
"The Daqian won't have a way, to trace back to here, to trace back to us, right? I heard there's a very strong dynasty magic treasure in Dali's Shadow Departnt, called the Shadow Great Mirror. Surely the Daqian has similar things, don't they?"
Old Yang watched as the filth was recollected, shaking his head.
"Don't worry, dynasty system magic treasures have many unreasonable abilities, but their limitations are even greater.
Do you know why a forbidden land is called a forbidden land?
It's because such places, with all sorts of chaotic and mysterious auras, both violent and pure, are impossible to backtrack, even with the Shadow Great Mirror of the Shadow Departnt.
Plus, the filth and Demonic Qi you just released, even if the Shadow Supre ca personally, he couldn't trace back anything useful."
Old Yang kept wondering if Yu Ziqing was cautious or bold.
The more he thought, the more he felt Yu Ziqing was both bold and cowardly.
Old Yang led the way, following Yu Ziqing, circling back silently, arriving on the peaks near the Silver Lake, looking around.
The lakeside was completely calm, with no unusual sign and no trace of Li Liangqiu's presence.
His Blood Sea was shattered, his spine was broken. If he had escaped from the bottom of the lake, it was impossible not to leave any trace.
The place Yu Ziqing broke the tiles and opened a bridge to charge was right beneath the Silver Lake's surface, and as Li Liangqiu charged at full strength, his retreat point must be even deeper than where the Sealed Items were.
"Within the Silver Lake, a single drop of water weighs a hundred jins, and the pressure ten ters below the surface is equivalent to the pressure at the bottom of a ten-thousand-ter sea.
Previously, those Sealed Items, I estimated, lie about a hundred ters below. The point where he forced his way in could only be deeper. Given his state, there is absolutely no chance of survival.
Moreover, in such a place, with constant erosion, it's hard even for a corpse to remain..."
A hint of pity unconsciously surfaced in Old Yang's eyes.
A Body Cultivator who had just advanced to the Eighth Tier should have been in the pri of his life.
Barring accidents, Li Liangqiu could have been promoted again to Commander in the future.
If his ability were also sufficient, he would have a decent chance to succeed as Commander once the current one stepped down.
In the Daqian, low-tier body cultivators and high-tier body cultivators were naturally regarded as two types of cultivators, much like the distinction between Qi Refinent and Body Refinent.
Unfortunately, this guy, in the end, died like this.
Dying beneath the Silver Lake, he couldn't even send out a last thought.
Unless, like Yu Ziqing, he harnessed the power here, shared the sa origin, and mastered the Golden Water Yin Escape with a Grade of Seventh Tier or above. Otherwise, an Eighth Tier body cultivator entering a hundred ters deep unhard wouldn't last long.
As for the Ninth Tier, ha, those Ninth Tiers didn't dare casually approach Silver Lake at all.
The reason a forbidden land is called a forbidden land, the primary factor, was its extre danger.
Strictly speaking, the Silver Lake is the real Silver Lake Forbidden Land.
Anyone from the outskirts, any vagrant, could actually co here for a stroll if they were careful enough.
After strolling around twice and waiting for a couple of two-hour periods, confirming that there wasn't any trace or clue left, Yu Ziqing and Old Yang circled out of the western side of the Silver Lake Forbidden Land.
No matter if Li Liangqiu miraculously operated at the scene or suddenly allied with the living beings in Silver Lake, surviving for a couple of hours deep within Silver Lake was impossible.
Yu Ziqing and Old Yang exited from the west side and then took a massive detour, traveling purely with bodily strength in order to conceal their presence, taking about seven or eight days, circling to the north of the Jinlan Mountain Forbidden Land.
