The Duan Family possessed a Top Grade Magic Tool, which was not unexpected.
Although Top Grade Magic Tools were precious and seldom seen by ordinary cultivators.
But the Duan Family was a reputable Tool Casting Family, and Duan Qiankun himself was a Foundation Establishment True Cultivator, having one or two Top Grade Magic Tools was not surprising.
However, a Magic Item… especially a highly valuable Defence Magic Item, that was enough to make one wary beyond words.
A thought crossed Luo Chen’s mind as he recalled something Miao Wen had casually mentioned.
Among the five Foundation Establishment Cultivators who had besieged Mi Shuhua, Nangong Jin, Li Yixian, and Wang Haichao did not have any magic items.
In other words, the only ones with magic items were Elder Zhou of the Yun Merchant Alliance and Duan Qiankun.
Now, when correlating this with what Duan Feng had said, there were indeed no discrepancies.
“Ze Guo Kui Map?”
“What is the grade of this treasure, and what are its strengths and weaknesses?”
“Is there any way to restrain it?”
One after another, questions were asked.
Even Duan Feng, who was well-versed in the Duan Family’s affairs, found it strenuous.
He bitterly smiled and said: “How would I know the restraining method?” “As for strengths and weaknesses, I remember my mother once said, this treasure hardly has any weaknesses. Any attack would be absorbed and devoured by the Gui Water True Essence contained in this map.” “That powerful?” Sima Huiniang could not help but marvel.
Duan Feng sighed: “Of course, it’s powerful. This treasure is modeled after the Ze Guo War Map, one of the six Ascendant Grade Mysterious Magic Tools in Tian Fan City.”
“However, the Ze Guo War Map requires the accomodation of seven miraculous waters such as Mysterious Element Heavy Water, Ren Water, Heavenly One True Water, etc. to be crafted.”
“While this imitation of the Ze Guo Kui Map merely contains the Gui Water True Essence, and hence, is reluctantly classified as a Lower Grade.” After hearing the origin of this magic item, everyone exchanged uneasy glances.
Even if it were a lower-grade magic item, it was not something they could easily resist!
Their morale seemed to have taken a hit.
Ahem!
A soft cough sounded, everyone turned to look at Luo Chen.
“As for Duan Qiankun, I have a plan for him, so no need for excessive worries.” Everyone could not help but be amazed.
The President was this confident?
Wang Yuan glanced at Luo Chen, contemplatively.
Luo Chen glossed over the topic and said somberly: “Apart from these, two other aspects require attention.”
Under everyone’s gaze, Luo Chen slowly said: “One is Duan Rui. Although the outer world deems him incompetent, he’s achieved the realm of Qi Refinement Finalization and should not be underestimated.”
Everyone nodded, acknowledging this matter of course.
“The other is that the Duan Family has a puppet whose combat power can match that of a cultivator at the Qi Refinement Finalization.”
Upon hearing this, Duan Feng was taken aback.
“When did this happen?”
When did it happen?
That was already last year’s news.
Luo Chen glanced at Duan Feng, and could only say that Duan Qiankun had done too much, prepared too much for his clan’s future.
Even Duan Feng, who was eager for revenge and closely monitoring all the time, could not be fully aware of everything.
“In any case, the attack on the Duan Family is set in stone. This matter is of urgency, but it is not to be rushed.”
“We must plan one by one to minimize the losses to the greatest extent possible!”
“Do you have confidence in dealing with Duan Qiankun?”
In the stone house, two people sat face to face.
In response to Wang Yuan’s question, Luo Chen laughed and said: “I’m counting on you, Brother Wang. So why would you ask me?”
Wang Yuan said seriously: “Without the Defence Magic Item, I can fight against him. The odds of victory would be 30% to 70%, with me having the lesser possibility.”
“That high?” Luo Chen raised his eyebrows in surprise.
It’s important to remember that when Wang Yuan returned to Luo Tian Creed last year, he had no confidence in dealing with Foundation Establishment Cultivators yet.
He still remembered that phrase “Do you really think the Foundation Establishment Sword is not sharp!”
Unexpectedly, only such a short time had passed, and the other party was already this confident.
Wang Yuan helplessly said: “At that time, the only thing I lacked was a method, not the realm.”
Having said that, Luo Chen finally understood.
The majority of methods relied on external items.
As far as Luo Chen knew, Wang Yuan had participated in the Zhenlong Black Market and had consequently acquired many valuable items.
Such as the Top Grade Glove Magic Tool, the Mysterious Magic Tool Hejiang Iron Lock, and so on.
Later, he himself helped Wang Yuan buy that copy of “Sky Roc Transformation,” which filled in some of his physical cultivation attacking methods.
Considering this, he really should have this confidence.
“Furthermore, Duan Qiankun is not the same as a regular Foundation Establishment Cultivator. I have a natural advantage over him.”
“What do you mean?”
“He’s old and weak, with declining vitality. This is precisely where I excel!” Wang Yuan expressed great confidence in this aspect. “It’s nothing more than using my strength to attack the enemy’s weakness.”
But after the confidence came the distress.
“But if there is a Defence Magic Item, many things would become problematic.”
Seeing the distressed Wang Yuan, Luo Chen gave a slight smile.
“This is nothing to worry about. In dealing with Duan Qiankun, I will not fight an uncertain battle.”
“Magic Items…are coveted by many people!”
He said the last sentence with a tone full of lament.
Vaguely, he could still remember Mi Shuhua purchasing the Sky Moon Purple Gold Wheel at the Yu Ding auction, regardless of the cost.
The uncontrollable ecstasy, the echoing laughter, everything was still fresh in his memory.
Seeing Luo Chen’s confidence, Wang Yuan didn’t say anything more.
He knew that Luo Chen would never plot against him.
After Wang Yuan left, Luo Chen remained alone in the stone house, pondering over any missed details.
After a long time, he finally laughed lightly.
“Nangong Jin, I hope you won’t disappoint me!”
Atop Xiao Huan Mountain.
The ice and snow were gradually melting, and the dead branches and leaves trembled in the steep, cold wind.
The mountaintop was the Duan Family’s Forbidden Area.
Non-direct descendants were not allowed to enter.
Only Clan Chief Duan Qiankun and the highly anticipated Duan Rui could freely come and go.
At this moment, Duan Qiankun stood outside a thatched cottage, his old face devoid of any emotion..
