Infiltrate the imperial palace!

Beneath the imperial city walls.

Gazing at the densely packed guards on the city wall, Cao Wenbin's eyes nearly popped out of his head!

"Even the ordinary soldiers are at the King - Realm?"

"Fortunately, the people of the Qingling Dynasty can't leave this place. Otherwise, the structure of the Immortal Region would change in an instant!"

At this moment, Cao Wenbin was hiding within a cloud of smoke.

Yes, the reason why the ghosts on the city wall couldn't smell the life force on him was precisely because he had used the Smoke - Hiding Flask.

"Who would have thought that Die Ke, who was supposed to be the death of me, would actually have helped me!"

"Well, I'll put this debt on Die Yunyu's account. When I get back, I must repay her several times!"

With a curl of his lips, Cao Wenbin then seized an opportunity and swiftly crossed over the city wall.

Actually, with the density of the guards on the city wall, even if Cao Wenbin shrank to one - tenth of his size, he definitely wouldn't be able to get through.

But by a lucky coincidence, when he made his move, it happened to be during the shift change of two groups of troops, which gave him an opportunity.

"Perfect!"

"It seems that my luck is gradually improving!"

This wasn't narcissism but a fact.

After all, the light of fortune on Cao Wenbin at this moment had also reached a green level.

It was almost catching up with Wu Chengqian back then.

Of course, random thoughts aside, his pace wasn't slow at all.

Under the guidance of the Primordial Phoenix, he was rapidly approaching the Chaotic Golden Flame.

However, the further he advanced, the more tightly Cao Wenbin frowned.

Because he discovered that the deeper he went, the denser the malevolent qi around him was.

"No, the places where the Virtue - Prestige Holy Flame is located are extremely hot, and it's very difficult for ordinary people to get close."

"Logically speaking, as the higher - quality Chaotic Golden Flame, even if there isn't a thousand - li expanse of red - hot land around it, there should be no living beings either!"

"But now..."

This problem wasn't only on Cao Wenbin's mind. The Primordial Phoenix was also pondering it.

And the Primordial Phoenix, being a being who had lived for tens of thousands of years, quickly came up with an answer.

"I understand!"

"This is the principle of extreme prosperity leading to decline and things reaching an extreme and then reversing!"

"As the supreme among fires, the Chaotic Golden Flame has reached the extreme in the power it contains within itself."

"So what it emits is gloomy malevolent qi."

"And the reason why the ghosts in this Qingling Imperial City have been able to live for so long is precisely because of its benefit."

Logically speaking, after hearing this news, Cao Wenbin should be very excited.

After all, the stronger the Chaotic Golden Flame, the greater his harvest would be.

But in reality, Cao Wenbin's face was almost as long as the Changbai Mountain.

"Damn it. According to what you said, isn't the Chaotic Golden Flame the sacred object here?"

"Primordial Phoenix, let's just turn back!"

"I'll bring you to obtain this Chaotic Golden Flame when I break through to the Supreme Realm someday!"

Cao Wenbin had a clear understanding of himself.

He knew very well that at this moment, even if he used all his trump cards, he could at most deal with a saint.

But here...

Cao Wenbin was certain that there must be an emperor here.

As for a supreme being, there probably wasn't one.

Otherwise, the ruler here would definitely not be willing to stay in such a small place.

But even if there was only an emperor, it was enough to crush him!

So if not now, when?

But as soon as he showed signs of backing down, the Primordial Phoenix immediately objected.

I've already called you husband. How can you just leave like this?

"Can't you be a bit more ambitious?"

"Running away at the first sign of trouble. How can you take charge of the Cao family in the future?"

Without any hesitation, Cao Wenbin immediately retorted, "What does this have to do with being ambitious? It has nothing to do with it!"

"A Nirvana - Realm cultivator challenging an Emperor - Realm one? This isn't being ambitious. It's being stupid!"

The Primordial Phoenix fell silent.

Because she knew that Cao Wenbin was right.

But she also knew that she definitely couldn't let Cao Wenbin really leave.

So...

"Husband, please help me!"

"Being in a soul state is really uncomfortable!"

"Besides, in this state, I can't serve you either!"

"Don't you want to experience something that even your ancestor hasn't..."

Before, Cao Wenbin was very determined to leave.

But after these words, he hesitated.

Seeing that there was a chance, the Primordial Phoenix immediately intensified her efforts.

"After I'm resurrected, I won't be able to see my toes when I look down."

"As for why..."

"Hiss~"

Cao Wenbin's breathing immediately became rapid.

Then he gritted his teeth and said, "I'll trust you just this once!"

"But if I later find out that you're not as good as you described..."

With a shy smile, "If there's even a bit of falsehood, I'll let you do whatever you want with me."

This really got to Cao Wenbin.

"Women really are alluring! But..."

"I like it!"

With a grin, Cao Wenbin then started walking again.

But after just a few steps, he had to stop again.

Because...

"Stop!"

"Who are you?"

"Why are you using this strange fog to conceal your breath?"

Obviously, he had been discovered.

The other party must have seen him running wildly when passing by.

"Damn it. What bad luck!"

After muttering to himself, Cao Wenbin slowly turned his head.
