"Indeed, this person who can lurk next to me without showing his face is really a genius..."

"Hmph! No matter how talented you are, there will be times when your flaws show up. The old man has some ideas now, but they are immature and need to be considered...

Think about it yourself, is there anyone who has done something different from the beginning to now?"

Liu Shiba was startled when he heard this, and carefully sorted out his group from beginning to end in his mind...

Then, Liu Shiba stood up slowly, took a solemn look at the resting place where the other eight people were resting, and whispered softly:

"Could it be..."

Cao Xiong said with a strange smile:

"Since you know what's going on, let's keep it secret and see what the hell is going on..."

Liu Shiba nodded silently...

Then, Liu Shiba looked back at Cao Xiong curiously, pulled him ten meters away into the darkness, found a place to sit down, and asked softly: "Why did Yamamoto Ryugi reach the seventh level of martial arts?

This is simply incredible.”

"Hey! It's time for you to know some ancient secrets about the advancement of the ten cultivations."

Cao Xiong sighed.

"Secret news?"

Liu Shiba's eyes widened.

"What state are you in now?"

Cao Xiong asked rhetorically.

"Six thieves are at the second level, warriors are at the fourth level, merit masters are at the first level, and Feng Shui masters... are probably only at the first or second level.

According to my understanding, if you have mastered four of the ten disciplines in the world, you should be a fourth-grade gold-touching captain, right?"

Liu Shiba gritted his teeth and said softly.

Cao Xiong nodded, looked around, then looked at Lao Hei and the Blue-Eyed Rat King who were following him, and then said cautiously:

"Do you know what conditions are required to advance to the fifth rank of Golden Colonel?"

"I know, let's learn another skill among the ten cultivations in the world."

Liu Shiba replied disapprovingly.

"Wrong! It's not like that!"

Cao Xiong shook his head cautiously.

Then, Cao Xiong explained:

"You have to be like your grandfather and practice all the skills of the other four professions you have learned to the fourth level before you can advance the Gold-touching Captain to the fifth level.

By analogy, the next time you advance to the sixth level of Touching Gold, you will not only have to advance all these skills to the fifth level, but you will also have to learn one more skill.

And this newly learned skill must also reach the fifth level, so that it can be upgraded to the sixth level to touch gold captain..."

When Liu Shiba heard this, he instantly understood the meaning. That is, all the books he has mastered must reach a critical point before he can reach the next level?

Thinking of this, Liu Shiba couldn't help but curiously said:

"According to what you said, how did Yamamoto reach the seventh level of martial arts?"

Cao Xiong smiled strangely and said:

"Have you forgotten what I told you before? Among the ten cultivations, only the cultivation of Captain Jin is the most difficult. You need to combine the strengths of all the masters to achieve success.

However, the other professions among the ten cultivations are not required, because he can practice one alone.

It is definitely much easier to specialize in one subject and reach the pinnacle than to upgrade and advance through the Golden Captain..."

Liu Shiba nodded heavily when he heard this and said with a sullen face:

"How strong is a seventh-grade warrior?"

A trace of ferocity appeared on Cao Xiong's face and he said:

"It's very strong. When Yamamoto Ryugi's identity was exposed and he betrayed Liujiatun, so many people didn't keep him. It's conceivable!"

"What state is Yamamoto Ryugi in now? Does he have any other abilities?"

Liu Shiba asked strangely.

"Yes! Yamamoto is not only a warrior, but also a low-level gold-touching captain. He has learned at least half of your grandfather's skills.

According to my prediction, Yamamoto has now reached at least the fifth level of Qi Seeking Technique and is a strong master of the seventh level of martial arts.

At the same time, he also has the ability of a fourth-level gold-touching captain, a third-level proficient in Feng Shui, a second-level six robbers, and a fifth-level official.

Not only that, this guy is also proficient in Japanese karate and ninjutsu..."

Cao Xiong's gloomy words outlined an extremely powerful man: Yanagi Yamamoto...

"How old is this guy?"

Liu Shiba was confused.

"About the same as Li Laifu, over eighty years old!"

Cao Xiong smiled strangely and added:

"Nothing goes wrong, he doesn't have many years left to live, unless he has Tai Sui in human form..."

"Humanoid Tai Sui?"

Speaking of this, Liu Shiba and Cao Xiong stood up at the same time and thought of something, with a trace of panic and shock in their eyes.

Liu Shiba and Cao Xiong thought of something that had been ignored at the same time...

Maybe Yamamoto Ryugi's target is not the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang at all, nor is it a virus, but the humanoid Tai Sui in Liu Jinling's dimensional space?

Or maybe it’s the legendary elixir in Qin Shihuang’s mausoleum...

And all the illusions in the upper base, the battle with the Japanese task force, and the total annihilation are all just a show?

Yamamoto Ryugi’s purpose is to use external factors to divert the attention of his group?

And then successfully create an opportunity for this mysterious spy lurking among his group?

And the ultimate goal of this spy is to either seize the humanoid Tai Sui from Liu Shiba's body, or to seize the legendary elixir of immortality in Qin Shihuang's mausoleum?

"Huh! Lao Cao, it seems it's okay. We need to chat more. As we chatted, we discovered many details that are usually ignored."

Liu Shiba sighed with lingering fear, with a hint of bitterness in his eyes.

"Hehe! It should be so. I am your grandfather's disciple after all, and also your elder. It is my duty as a disciple to protect you."

Cao Xiong chuckled triumphantly.

"Woo!"

Lao Hei and Bi Yan suddenly stood up at the same time, looking towards the station with their golden eyes...

"Ah...Luo Zhan? Luo Zhan, what's wrong with you?"

Immediately afterwards, a scream came from the place where everyone was resting not far away. From the sound, it belonged to the old man Tian Mingjian...

Liu Shiba and Cao Xiong looked at each other in shock, then ran back...

Not far away, Liu Shiba saw Tian Mingjian hugging Luo Zhan and crying bitterly...

Luo Zhan's body was dripping with bright red blood...

"Old Tian, ​​what's wrong?"

From a distance, Cao Xiong asked in fear.

Tian Mingjian's white hair was messy, and he said angrily and in despair:

"Luo Zhan died. He was killed, killed! His throat was cut by some beast..."

Liu Shiba paused when he heard this, then turned pale and stumbled to sit on the ground.

What was supposed to come, came anyway...

The killing hidden in the darkness fell on Liu Shiba and his group in a way that no one expected and with such lightning speed!

Luo Zhan is dead...
