mountain peak!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An old man clad in a yellow Daoist robe was wielding his treasure sword, moving in a mystical posture to channel his magic power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless magic powers were unleashed, drawn into the void by a black-and-red glowing talisman pattern, spewing forth across this realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A life talisman flickered within it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The life talisman was He Pingsheng’s life talisman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old Daoist was naturally Yu De.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The method of using bloodline to locate one’s physical body was an ancient secret technique, rarely used in the cultivation world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because it was generally unnecessary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This secret technique could pinpoint the location of the body within a two-thousand-li radius.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu De performed this spell here because he wanted to see whether He Pingsheng was inside the secret realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he was, the two-thousand-li coverage would be sufficient to detect him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But unfortunately, he detected no trace of He Pingsheng at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That meant He Pingsheng was not inside the secret realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then when had he left?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu De frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment his granddaughter died, he had flown straight to the secret realm’s entrance and confirmed repeatedly with others that no cultivator had teleported out during that time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That meant He Pingsheng had remained inside the secret realm all along—yet now he was gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, he had left with another sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disguise?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Makeup?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, Yu De’s mind flashed with countless methods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He closed his eyes, methodically sorting through them, speculating, recalling each one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet he found not a single clue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good boy…” Yu De drew a deep breath, his eyes revealing a hint of seriousness: “So cautious in his actions—could he have deceived me right under my nose?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good, good, good!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s see where you can hide now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu De waved his hand, snatched up the jade talisman again, and shot skyward with a whoosh, riding a flying sword as he headed south along the path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no specific destination—only a slow search throughout the entire Daoxuan Alliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as He Pingsheng appeared within his two-thousand-li range, he would find him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, if the bastard had escaped the Daoxuan Alliance’s territory, there would be no hope of finding him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But a pleasing event came to Yu De soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the fourth afternoon of his relentless search, the jade tablet in his hand finally flickered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had locked onto He Pingsheng’s location.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hahaha… I’ve finally found you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He Pingsheng…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m coming!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flying sword speed was swift—less than half an hour later, Yu De landed on his flying sword not far from the cave entrance where He Pingsheng was in seclusion!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not strike immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he was a Foundation Establishment cultivator, while He Pingsheng was merely a Qi Refining seventh-layer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What Yu De intended was to first ask He Pingsheng what had happened, then slowly torture him to death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slapping him dead outright would be too kind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cultivation nephew He Pingsheng, I am Yu De!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come out and speak!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu De’s voice was not loud, but it carried clearly into the cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng, who was practicing the [Mystic Gate Stillness True Scripture], froze in shock: Dammit… how did this old bastard find me here?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I give you ten breaths!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“After ten breaths, I will obliterate this cave completely!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng leapt to his feet and cautiously stepped out of the cave mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sun had set; the sky was dim, and the dark valley was nearly as black as night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside stood an old man in a yellow Daoist robe—Yu De.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside Yu De stood a giant golden serpent, its entire body gleaming gold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The serpent reared up half its body, nearly matching Yu De’s height, while the rest lay coiled on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Chii… chii… sssss…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The serpent opened its mouth and hissed cold air toward He Pingsheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“After the secret realm ended, you didn’t return to the sect—why are you skulking in this valley?” Seeing He Pingsheng, Yu De somehow felt his anger vanish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His tone now was utterly calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng was calmer still.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said: “Then why are you sneaking here to find me, Master Uncle?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu De asked: “Did you kill Linglong?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng did not answer, but countered: “Did you kill my parents?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu De’s brows furrowed slightly, his gaze narrowing on He Pingsheng: “Good boy—you dare speak to me like this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Enough, enough…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Since it’s like this, I won’t ask anymore!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Today, I’ll show you how I kill!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go…” Yu De slammed his palm hard against the golden giant serpent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The golden serpent shuddered slightly, then slithered toward He Pingsheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its vertical pupils glowed with two points of light in the darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bright, eerie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just one look sent chills down the spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The giant serpent did not attack immediately—it merely circled He Pingsheng slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng no longer hid, for the serpent could strike at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Open…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He whispered sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A green Dao talisman flew out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In less than a breath, the green jade talisman shattered—hundreds of emerald sword lights coalesced above He Pingsheng’s head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each sword light aimed at the golden serpent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hundreds of them!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten Thousand Swords Dao Talisman!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could a Dao talisman kill a Foundation Establishment cultivator?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unknown!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only one chance remains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it kills, it kills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it doesn’t, I die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today is the end—whether I escape or not depends on fate alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This… is a Dao talisman?” Yu De’s face instantly twisted with shock: “Even a top-grade Dao talisman?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How… how do you have something like this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu De was afraid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He understood Dao talismans far better than He Pingsheng did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not even a mid-grade Dao talisman could be resisted by a Foundation Establishment cultivator—it inflicted grave injury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Impossible to block.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A top-grade one? Even less so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cultivation nephew, let’s talk calmly!” Yu De’s expression changed instantly: “Your parents’ death involved many misunderstandings!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I can’t explain it all now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Think—how could an inner sect Foundation Establishment cultivator like me have any interest conflict with your parents, mere outer sect disciples?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So I wouldn’t kill them without reason!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s all a misunderstanding!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng drew a deep breath and said: “Is it truly a misunderstanding?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng took a deep breath and said, “Is it really a misunderstanding?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Yu De saw He Pingsheng asking, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly spoke in a soft, soothing tone: “It’s all a misunderstanding, nephew—stop your technique, and I promise you…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could finish, He Pingsheng said: “Master, why are you here too?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng’s words came suddenly; Yu De barely thought before instinctively turning his head to look behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, hundreds of sword lights above He Pingsheng’s head erupted downward toward Yu De.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn… he tricked me…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu De roared in fury!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless emerald sword lights blotted out the sky above Yu De like a sea of green clouds!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Yu De had two choices.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, run!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second, defend!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he ran, he would abandon all defense—any single sword light striking him would bring unimaginable consequences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he defended!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could he defend?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no time to activate the seals on his magic treasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because everything happened too fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if he could activate it, Yu De knew he couldn’t stop it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Severe injury was now inevitable.\u003C\u002Fp>",1226,"2026-06-21T04:08:57.694Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","4b5e8784de0f30285a073dd5cb660f692b979cfa21bca4fcd22ced8ff02a4ec4","the-treasure-immortal-basin-chapter-101","the-treasure-immortal-basin-chapter-99",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-treasure-immortal-basin-cover.jpg"]
