Only I can unseal these acupoints. Though I don’t wish to play the villain, I advise you to cooperate willingly—otherwise, I can’t guarantee I won’t do something strange.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, his eyes scanned her up and down, but then, as if remembering something, he suddenly withdrew his gaze with disinterest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Cang Yinyue’s clear eyes flashed a sliver of killing intent, her voice icy as she asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Have you seen my face?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Muxian paused, then sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah, you caught me—but I didn’t mean any disrespect.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The killing intent in Cang Yinyue’s eyes intensified, almost tangible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In her view, Li Muxian claimed no prejudice, yet his earlier reaction betrayed his true thoughts!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t look at me like that—it’s terrifying.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Muxian spun the six-sided wooden box like a basketball, then fixed her with a serious gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I only feel sorry—you clearly have the makings of a beauty, yet someone branded you with the character ‘base’—it’s cruel beyond measure.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Yinyue stared at Li Muxian, silent for several breaths, then closed her eyes and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Take the box. If you still want to go to Shangyang City, release me. If not, kill me now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not necessary, not necessary.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Muxian shook his head vigorously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No point in giving up halfway—I still think I can compete for the title of Seventh Imperial Prince.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Cang Yinyue snorted, snapped open her eyes, and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then unseal my acupoints right now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No problem—but first, tell me about this box.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Muxian suddenly pinched the spinning box between his fingers, halting it before Cang Yinyue’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Yinyue narrowed her eyes, stared at the box in silence, then suddenly asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you know what the ‘Heavenly Revelation Secret Vault’ is?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s that? Sounds impressive, though.” Li Muxian looked puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Heavenly Revelation Secret Vault is a hidden treasury left behind by Emperor Tianqi, founder of the Great Qi Dynasty. Some say it contains the divine martial arts and peerless pills with which Emperor Tianqi reached the pinnacle of martial cultivation; others claim it holds treasures rivaling a nation’s wealth; still others say it contains everything—possessing it means possessing the entire world.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Yinyue spoke slowly, her gaze fixed on Li Muxian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yet for a thousand years, no one has ever known what lies inside.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Li Muxian rubbed his chin, lost in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He naturally knew of the Great Qi Dynasty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was an exceptionally rare golden age, its imperial line enduring over a thousand years—in his former world, he had never seen a feudal dynasty so long-lived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Great Qi had been destroyed a century ago; its vast territories were divided among today’s Five Imperial Dynasties, one of which was Da Li, where he now resided.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Emperor Tianqi, he was even more extraordinary—called the Emperor of a Thousand Ages, his achievements shook antiquity and surpassed all before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most importantly, he expelled the Man and Huang tribes, ending millennia of enslavement and invasion by these two races.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, Emperor Tianqi was a martial genius of unparalleled talent; his cultivation reached peerless heights, and in his era, the entire martial world could only look up to him…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Li Muxian pondered, his eyes suddenly brightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emperor Tianqi was a true pinnacle of martial cultivation—perhaps he had even touched the realm of transcendence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately stood up excitedly, flicked his finger, and unsealed Cang Yinyue’s acupoints, then grabbed her hand and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Forget Shangyang City—take me to the Heavenly Revelation Secret Vault. I’m far more interested in this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Yinyue, suddenly freed, froze for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But quickly, a sharp gleam flashed in her phoenix-like eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Martial qi surged instantly through her meridians, gathering in her palm, and with the speed of thunder, she struck without hesitation at the back of Li Muxian’s neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the next instant, she found she could not move again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The situation was identical to before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Miss Cang, why are you attacking again? Lucky I reacted fast.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Muxian shook her hand, still holding it, while Cang Yinyue, clearly furious, remained silent for a long while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Li Muxian began earnestly persuading her to take him to find the Heavenly Revelation Secret Vault.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Yinyue, worn out by his persistence, doused him with cold water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you think a wooden box of uncertain authenticity is enough to open the Heavenly Revelation Secret Vault?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Muxian froze. “Could this box be fake?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Yinyue glanced at the six-sided box and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m not sure. The information from the Seven Scoundrels of Zha River is unreliable—they killed many people for this item, only finding it today at Yu’s Martial Hall.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Also, according to what I know, seven keys are needed to open the Heavenly Revelation Secret Vault—only when all seven are gathered can it be unlocked.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Li Muxian’s heart sank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This plot felt familiar—collect seven Dragon Balls to summon the Dragon God?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He silently mocked himself, his earlier excitement fading; after a moment’s thought, he sat back down by the fire, idly turning the wooden box in his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I have a question—if this vault was left by Emperor Tianqi, and over a thousand years have passed, hasn’t someone already opened it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Cang Yinyue glanced at Li Muxian and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No one has yet obtained the Heavenly Revelation Secret Vault. As far as I know, the closest attempt was a century ago—by the last emperor of Great Qi, who gathered all seven keys.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1132,"2026-06-20T01:43:38.503Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","6c6387f5851eb43f307bdfa72ada2f15dfd2e578f92ce62d5c52ac8f524d63a2","after-fifteen-years-of-secret-cultivation-i-star-chapter-10","after-fifteen-years-of-secret-cultivation-i-star-chapter-8",259,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fafter-fifteen-years-of-secret-cultivation-i-star-cover.jpg"]
