I Pick Up A Bunch Of Attributes

Chapter 48: Traitors

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Going back to three days ago.

Following the imperial court’s order, experts from the Five Elements Sect and the other sects of Mount Canglan came out almost in full force. Using the Five Elements Sky-Sealing Formation as the foundation, they completely locked down the huge Thousand Autumn Valley.

After that, three Dao Platform Realm cultivators among them were instantly killed by the old Sword King of the Thousand Autumn Valley!

This tragic reality was like a large basin of cold water that poured down on their heads, causing these aggressive experts to finally take a step back.

At this moment, they remembered one of the contingency plans set up by the imperial court—the Dragon Vein Resonance Technique.

As soon as they activated the Dragon Vein Resonance Technique, they would be able to connect with their allies who had mastered this secret technique and they would then be able to find out everything that was happening in the Thousand Autumn Valley!

However, although this secret technique seemed very powerful, it was not completely without its restrictions.

Firstly, the Dragon Vein Resonance Technique was a secret technique in the royal family’s Nine Dragons Sacred Heart Technique. Under normal circumstances, it was almost impossible for ordinary people to master the complete version of the technique.

Secondly, if one wanted to master the technique, one had to fulfill several conditions.

In order to fulfill any one of these conditions, one would have to indirectly become a member of the imperial court!

They were all leaders of their sects and factions, and were at the pinnacle of their success. Even if they had no choice but to bow down to Xuanwu Kingdom, it did not mean that they were willing to be completely submissive.

If it was possible, they naturally wanted to overthrow the rule of Xuanwu Kingdom. Unfortunately… Xuanwu Kingdom was just too powerful.

In the face of not being able to defeat their opponent, they could only become a part of their opponent.

“This kid’s cultivation is still too weak. He has just opened a Mystical Wheel and can only connect to one person at a time. After that, his cultivation will be completely exhausted and he will need a full day to recover.”

Looking at the back view of the thin young man, the Tianjue Sect Master chuckled and said, “Therefore, we must first contact one of the hidden spies and find out more about the true situation of the Thousand Autumn Valley as soon as possible. Then…”

He raised his hand and made a throat-slitting gesture.

Hearing what the Tianjue Sect Master said, the rest of the experts started laughing.

“It’s fine as long as we can get a connection. It’s not a flaw to have a low cultivation level. Moreover, with all the fellow practitioners here, how difficult is it for all of us to assist in the restoration of a mere first level Inception Realm cultivator?”

The fat middle-aged man rubbed his palms together and said with a smile, “When this kid’s cultivation is exhausted, we will take turns to feed him with energy. It will be enough for him to recover his strength quickly.”

“Very well, let’s do that.” The Tianjue Sect Master smiled and nodded.

Every Dao Platform Realm cultivator there looked at one another, but none of them mentioned anything.

Feeding energy using martial arts could indeed quickly restore a person’s cultivation.

However, this method was extremely harmful to the body and its meridians. It was fine if it was done once, but if it was done too often, no matter how strong one’s cultivation talent was, one would probably become a cripple!

At this moment, the thin young man suddenly opened his eyes.

“Found it!”

“Oh, you found someone so quickly? What’s the person’s name and status in the Thousand Autumn Valley?”

The Tianjue Sect Master was overjoyed and yelled out.

The numerous pairs of eyes in the surrounding instantly swept over and focused on the young man.

If it was an ordinary youth sitting here, facing so many Dao Platform Realm cultivators, he would most likely be on the verge of collapse. However, they only saw the young man’s body shake once and then there was no more abnormality.

“What a pity. Such a good candidate for sword cultivation is crippled just like that.”?Someone thought as he secretly shook his head, but he did not say anything.

The way everyone saw it, the young man’s parents had failed to assassinate the Tianjue Sect Master, so the son had to pay his father’s debt. The young man could only manage to survive until now because the Tianjue Sect Master had already shown mercy to him.

“Please let me ask…”

The young man nodded and closed his eyes.

After a while, he finally opened his eyes again and replied expressionlessly.

“He says his name is Mo Yin. He used to be a member of the imperial guards, but he was ordered to sneak into the Thousand Autumn Valley. Now, he is already a senior official there.”

“Good!”

Hearing this, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.

The Tianjue Sect Master smiled happily. “So it’s this Mo Yin, I’ve heard of this name before. He was a valiant general of the imperial guards, but then he disappeared mysteriously. So he went to the Thousand Autumn Valley!”

“To be able to contact Mo Yin on the first contact means that our luck is quite good.” The Tianjue Sect Master’s smile grew wider as he spoke, “Shuang’er, ask Mo Yin where the other hidden spies are. Also, ask him to find out the true situation about the old Sword King!”

The thin young man nodded. He closed his eyes again and focused on activating the Dragon Vein Resonance Technique.

The young man’s cultivation depleted slowly and when he had used up about 70% to 80%, he opened his eyes again. “Mo Yin said that other than him, there are a total of 17 hidden spies in the valley. Two of them are unknown, and the remaining 15 are…”

He reported a list of names and identities.

Everyone was pleasantly surprised to hear that.

Even if they put the two unknown people aside, just Mo Yin and the remaining 15 people were enough to completely bury the Thousand Autumn Valley!

“Then how about the old Sword King?”

A Dao Platform Realm Champion shouted out.

Hearing this, the others perked up.

In fact, this was what they were most concerned about!

“If the old Sword King’s lifespan is not up yet, we can only leave it to that person to resolve. If he’s at the stage where he’s just trying to hold on, then we don’t have to worry too much…”

“The old Sword King…”

The thin young man pondered for a moment. Suddenly, his body shook slightly and he almost fell to the ground. His cultivation was almost completely exhausted.

Fortunately for them, he used all his strength and recited word by word in a deep voice.

“The old Sword King… He’s comprehended the mysteries of Yin and Yang and life and death… He looks set to break through the Dao Platform Realm to the next level… at any time!”

Plop!

With that, the young man exhausted all his strength and fell limply to the ground, becoming unconscious.

“He has comprehended the mysteries of Yin and Yang and life and death and looks set to break through at any time?”

The Tianjue Sect Master let the young man fall over without any intention of helping him up. He exchanged glances with the others as looks of glee gradually appeared in their eyes.

“If he looks set to break through at any time, then it means that he hasn’t broken through yet!”

“As long as the old Sword King hasn’t broken through, he’s still in the Dao Platform Realm, and… still a Dao Platform Realm cultivator who’s about to die of old age!”

“As long as we make preparations in advance and draw him into a protracted battle, then we drag it out… we can exhaust him to his death!”

“Who the hell is this?!”

In the Thousand Autumn Valley.

Recalling the voice that had suddenly sounded in his mind, Feng Xia’s expression became even stranger.

“Who is Mo Yin? And who are these other 15 people? Are they all spies of the imperial court?”

“I was so worried that I wouldn’t be able to find them. Who’s so kind as to send the name list to me? Then again, this guy also seems to know the secret of breaking through to the Primal Core Realm?”

“And why is he telling me all this?!”
