Chapter 163 The Opportunity Has Arrived
In the Hulong Villa, a figure suddenly appeared in the study room which was originally empty.

The person who came was none other than Zhang Chu. His spiritual consciousness directly enveloped the entire Huolong Villa. Under his spiritual consciousness, nothing in the villa could escape his gaze.

As soon as the thought came to his mind, a younger version of Zhu Wusi appeared on the armchair behind the desk.

Zhang Chu was not in a hurry to wake him up. According to the time calculation, Zhu Wusi would wake up on his own in about a quarter of an hour.

He sat upright in a chair next to the desk, wondering in his heart how Zhu Wusi would feel when he woke up.

Should we capture Zhang Chu directly, or find a way to imprison Zhang Chu?

It was truly astonishing. In just five days, Zhu Wusi had become nearly twenty years younger!
There is no need to spread it out. Zhu Wushi alone can't even pass it, so he has to take it on his own.

This is rejuvenation!

Even if it is not immortality, but being able to live another ten or twenty years, how great is the temptation for people with great power?

While Zhang Chu was thinking, Zhu Wusi suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Zhang Chu sitting there, and without hesitation, pounced towards Zhang Chu.

His memory is still when Zhang Chu attacked him!

Looking at Zhu Wusi who was rushing towards him, Zhang Chu suddenly raised his head, and an extremely powerful pressure directly enveloped him.

Under the endless pressure, even though Zhu Wusi had superb martial arts skills, he was forced to stop.

It’s not that he wanted to stop, but he felt like he was stuck in quicksand and couldn’t move at all!
"What does Taoist priest mean?"

Zhu Wusi glared at him angrily, and was even unwilling to call him "military advisor".

"What do you mean?"

Zhang Chu also snorted coldly, "Feel it for yourself and see how much benefit you get!"

"benefit?"

Looking at Zhang Chu's serious expression, Zhu Wusi immediately began to feel the energy coming from himself silently.

As the internal force circulated in his body, he felt the long-lost vitality, as if he had returned to twenty years ago.

Although his body returned to twenty years ago, his skills did not decrease but increased, and became more refined.

With the repairing fluid from the biochemical world, all the hidden injuries in his body were repaired. He must have felt refreshed all over, and his skills were greatly enhanced, which was also inevitable.

The power-absorbing technique sounds quite powerful, but he has absorbed the internal energy of so many people that his own internal energy has long been impure.

Normally, only about 70% of the internal energy can be mobilized. If it is more, the internal energy will rebel.

How much damage did so much alien internal force cause to his body?

It can be said with absolute certainty that Zhu Wusi's body was already covered with scars!
Even though his internal strength was extremely high, he had too many hidden injuries on his body, so it was basically impossible for him to live a long life.

It’s different now. The hidden injuries have been repaired, and even, to a certain extent, the composition of his internal strength has been adjusted.

It basically solved his internal conflict.

He could naturally feel that his power had greatly increased!

"Let's see!"

Looking at Zhu Wusi's shocked expression, a bronze mirror appeared in Zhang Chu's hand, a smooth and direct bronze mirror.

Looking at people, there is no problem at all!
The image in the bronze mirror can even clearly see the hair on Zhu Wusi's temples.

"How is this possible?"

Zhu Wusi was already shocked by the fact that his body had regained its youthful vitality. Now, seeing his appearance nearly twenty years ago in the bronze mirror, he was speechless for a moment!

He has regained his youth!

However, although Zhu Wusi cannot be considered a hero, he is also very cunning!
Soon, his wildly fluctuating emotions calmed down, "Military Advisor, I was too reckless!"

"hehe!"

Zhang Chu shook his head slightly, not dwelling on the matter any further, "You'd better not be too happy too soon!"

"Rejuvenation!"

"Who in the world can resist such temptation?"

Hearing Zhang Chu's words, Zhu Wusi's expression suddenly changed.

As a powerful figure in the court, he naturally has a clearer grasp of the thoughts of those who hold power.

If he suddenly regained his youth, it would be a disaster rather than a blessing.

As for capturing Zhang Chu and handing him over?
Not to mention that he doesn't want to, even if he wants to, he can't do it!

Zhang Chu had just given him a warning. Even though his strength had greatly increased, he was no different from a child when facing Zhang Chu.

"It has been five days since Shangguan Haitang led his men to leave Hulong Villa!"

Zhang Chu didn't care what Zhu Wusi was thinking, "Go after her!"

"If you can't catch up with her and she reports it to the court, you'll be in big trouble!"

"Thank you for the reminder, military advisor!"

Zhu Wusi bowed to Zhang Chu and said, "Military Advisor, please wait for a moment. I will go pack up and we will set off!"

"Go on your own!"

Zhang Chu simply waved his hand and said, "I have other things to do!"

"Also, I've given you the plans and everything, but if you still lose!"

"That means you really are not destined to rule the country!"

"Military Advisor, are you leaving?"

Zhu Wusi suddenly stopped and looked at Zhang Chu in confusion.

"That's right!"

Zhang Chu nodded slightly, "I have finished my work, so of course I have to leave!"

"maybe,"

At this point, Zhang Chu hesitated for a moment, "Wait for thirty or forty years, and we can meet again!"

"I just hope you won't let me down!"

"military adviser?"

Just when Zhu Wusi was trying to persuade him to stay, he could no longer see Zhang Chu. It seemed that Zhang Chu had disappeared directly into the study.

He walked out directly, but there was no trace of Zhang Chu in the entire Hulong Villa.

However, he did not look for it carefully. Now, the most important thing was to leave the capital first.

Only if you have your own base can you achieve great things!
The vitality of his body returned, and Zhu Wusi's ambition also returned!
After all, the older you get, the more you seek stability; only young people are more motivated.

Zhu Wusi went straight back to the study, and when he appeared again, he looked much older. Zhu Wusi, the Iron-hearted Divine Marquis, was one of the top masters in the martial arts world, and he had the Qi-absorbing technique, and he knew countless martial arts skills.

The mere art of disguise was still very simple for him.

Zhu Wusi looked at himself in the bronze mirror, who had aged a lot in an instant, and murmured to himself, "One day, I will restore my original appearance!"

Then, he looked outside again and said, "Military Advisor, who are you?"

"Could it be that you have really found the secret of immortality?"

After muttering a few words, Zhu Wusi walked out of the Hulong Villa directly.

With his martial arts skills, how could those people from the Hulong Villa possibly discover him?

"Is he really gone?"

About half an incense stick of time later, Zhu Wusi appeared in the study again, but there was still no sign of Zhang Chu.

It turned out that his departure just now was an illusion, just to see if Zhang Chu really disappeared.

He waited outside the Huolong Villa for half an incense stick of time, but didn't see Zhang Chu come out. He couldn't help it, so he came back.

However, the study was exactly the same as when he left. Zhang Chu really disappeared out of thin air.

Shaking his head slightly, Zhu Wusi left. He could not delay any longer and had to catch up with Shangguan Haitang as soon as possible.

After Zhu Wusi left, about an incense stick of time passed, and Zhang Chu's figure suddenly appeared.

"He is indeed a cunning old man!"

Zhang Chu shook his head slightly, "Fortunately, I still have some tricks up my sleeve!"

Just now, Zhang Chu directly used the invisibility technique and waited until Zhu Wusi came back before he showed up.

This was because the area where Zhu Wusi was outside the Huolong Villa was just covered by Zhang Chu's spiritual consciousness.

After looking towards the study, Zhang Chu's figure disappeared again.

Invisibility is so convenient.

Although Zhang Chu's invisibility technique is actually just a kind of sleight of hand, and currently cannot reach the level of ability to completely hide his body, it is still not something that Zhu Wusi can discover.

After leaving the Hulong Villa, Zhang Chu did not stop and went straight towards the capital.

Zhu Wusi has been captured, but doesn’t that still mean there’s Gu Santong?

Compared to Zhu Wusi, Gu Santong's talent is definitely better.

To be able to cultivate the Vajra Indestructible Art to the level of perfection, it is impossible for Gu Santong not to have great talent!

As for whether Gu Santong relied on his own efforts to cultivate the Vajra Indestructible Art to perfection?
Zhang Chu still expressed doubt.

He didn't believe that such a clever person like Gu Santong would give up the shortcut of absorbing energy and only practice the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art.

Only when the power-absorbing technique and the Vajra-indestructible magic skill are combined together, can one achieve true miraculous results.

Why do you say that?

The cultivation of the Vajra Indestructible Art requires enormous amounts of energy to temper the body to make it invulnerable to swords and spears, and even to change the body's shape.

And where does the energy come from?
Of course, it was Gu Santong who practiced the art of absorbing internal energy and used other people's internal energy as fuel to achieve his own Vajra Indestructible Divine Art.

As for why no news came out?
Think about it, this is a world of martial arts, and there are plenty of bandits and robbers!
And who can be a bandit or robber without some martial arts skills?
How could any news of his absorbing their inner strength and then killing them all get out?

Rather than saying that Gu Santong took the blame for Zhu Wusi for killing the disciples of the eight major sects and absorbing their internal energy, it would be better to say that both Gu Santong and Zhu Wusi absorbed the internal energy of those people, but the blame now fell on Gu Santong!
Think about it, back then, there were hundreds of masters from the eight major sects who died.

Even if he is a master, he only has thirty years of internal strength. With hundreds of people, how much internal strength does that have?
Zhu Wushi, can he eat it?
Only Gu Santong, who has practiced the Vajra Indestructible Magical Skill, can absorb those people's internal energy completely.

The energy required to practice the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art is simply too much, and Gu Santong cannot supply it at all!

Only in this way can he cultivate the Vajra Indestructible Art in a very short period of time.

This is the same principle as how Zhang Chu used the zombies' original corpse energy to cultivate his magic power.

Generally speaking, in a world where the Dharma Ending Period is approaching, even if one has an incredible opportunity, it is impossible to accomplish the foundation building in just one or two years.

And it was because Zhang Chu was able to absorb and refine the endless supply of black zombie's original corpse qi that he was able to complete the Condensation Realm in just two or three years, which takes other cultivators almost a lifetime to complete.

Hulong Villa is not close to the capital, but with Zhang Chu's full efforts, it didn't take him much time at all and he had already arrived at the city gate of the capital.

How could a mere city gate officer discover him when he was invisible?
Besides, the dynasty of this world is not a lucky dynasty, so the magic will not be ineffective.

Therefore, Zhang Chu had already entered the capital without anyone noticing.

He continued to advance along the capital, and it didn't take him long at all before he arrived in front of the Heavenly Prison again.

Looking at the three or four meter high wall, Zhang Chu jumped lightly and reached the inside of the prison.

The last time he came, with Zhu Wusi’s token, he basically didn’t see many patrols.

But now, the situation is different. The guards patrolling in the sky prison basically do not stop.

But what can we do about it?
Can they still find Zhang Chu?

Looking at the layers of prison doors, Zhang Chu took the opportunity to walk straight in while delivering food.

The Sky Prison seemed to be much quieter at this time. No matter whether they were the most vicious people or those who had truly been wronged, they all seemed to be very quiet.

The truth is, the last time, Zhang Chu's terrifying outburst of murderous aura hurt many people's minds, and they no longer had the energy to wail.

Zhang Chu continued to move forward along the path in the middle of the prison door. Before long, he arrived at the eighth level of the Heavenly Prison.

Looking at the dozens of people surrounded by evil spirits, Zhang Chu already had a plan in his mind. Once he solved the matter of Gu Santong, none of these people would be able to escape.

If we bring them to the biochemical world, they will all be excellent materials for refining iron-armored corpses.

Soon, he reached the ninth floor of the Heavenly Prison.

This place is extremely secluded. Apart from a few people guarding the prison door, there is basically no one here.

In addition, the jailers of Tianlao are basically passed down from generation to generation, so it is basically impossible for them to betray Tianlao.

No matter who is the supervisor of the prison, he is extremely confident in these people.

When he reached the front of the ninth floor, Zhang Chu's enormous spiritual power directly invaded the minds of those jailers.

Under Zhang Chu's strong spiritual awareness, these people suddenly became stunned. They walked forward, and with the cooperation of several people, they opened the prison door in a short while.

Zhang Chu walked straight in and heard the sound of chains as the prison door was locked again.

At this moment, the jailers were in a trance. They looked around as if they had seen a ghost.

How could they not be afraid of the sudden mental confusion?
Just looking at the intact prison door, they felt relieved.

They didn't believe that anyone could enter the Heavenly Prison quietly.

At this moment, Zhang Chu had already walked in front of Gu Santong and said softly, "The opportunity has arrived!"
