"How could he discover us in advance?" The old man from the Imperial Observatory was puzzled.

The middle-aged man from the Blood Dragon Terrace had a gloomy look in his eyes: "This boy is not simple, we need to be careful."

The woman in palace dress from the Wei royal family frowned, obviously the variables of this operation were beyond her expectations.

Fang Yue rushed out of the courtyard, his figure as fast as lightning, and quickly disappeared into the night.

He did sense the abnormal fluctuations in the surrounding vital energy and knew that there were powerful enemies around him, so he chose to escape without hesitation.

Upon seeing this, the elite troops of the three forces immediately launched a pursuit, but Fang Yue was so fast and under the cover of night, they found it difficult to catch up for a while.

"Separate and chase him, and make sure to catch him!" the old man from the Imperial Observatory ordered.

The middle-aged man from the Blood Dragon Terrace and the woman in palace dress from the Wei royal family also led their men and chased in different directions.

However, Fang Yue seemed to have disappeared into the night, and no matter how they searched, they could not find any trace of him.

In fact, Fang Yue used his familiarity with the terrain and superb concealment skills to successfully evade pursuit by the three forces.

He found a secret hiding place and made sure that there was no one around before he dared to take a rest.

Fang Yue knew that he was lucky to escape this time.

He also knew that the three forces would never give up, so he had to be more careful next time.

The night was as dark as ink. Fang Yue hid in a dark corner, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.

In his hand, he tightly grasped an ancient talisman - the Zhentian Talisman, which was the national treasure of the Wei royal family, and it was also the reason why the three forces joined forces to hunt him down tonight.

This Heaven-shaking Talisman is said to contain earth-shaking power that can mobilize the vital energy of heaven and earth and exert the power to destroy the world.

Fang Yue also got it by chance, but he didn't expect it would cause such a big trouble.

"The Imperial Astronomical Bureau, the Blood Dragon Platform, and the Wei royal family, for this Heaven-shaking Talisman, they actually joined forces to deal with me."

Fang Yue smiled bitterly and shook his head, but his heart was full of vigilance.

He knew that his current situation was extremely dangerous and if he was not careful, he might end up in an irretrievable situation.

However, Fang Yue is not an easy person to deal with.

"Since they want this Heaven-shaking Talisman, I will not let them succeed." A hint of determination and resoluteness flashed in Fang Yue's eyes.

He decided to take the initiative and defeat them one by one!

"Since they want this Heaven-shaking Talisman," Fang Yue thought to himself, "then I will use this talisman to lure them into the game, and then defeat them one by one."

He took a deep breath, mobilized the vital energy in his body, and stimulated the power of the Heaven-shaking Talisman.

Suddenly, a powerful wave emanated from the talisman and rushed straight into the sky.

Although this force was short-lived, it was enough to attract the attention of the three forces.

Soon, Fang Yue sensed several powerful auras approaching rapidly.

A sneer appeared on his lips, and his figure flashed and disappeared into the night.

The old man from the Imperial Observatory, the middle-aged man from the Blood Dragon Terrace, and the palace-dressed woman from the Wei royal family gathered again. The faces of the three of them all looked quite solemn. They thought that with the joint efforts of the three parties, they could easily capture Fang Yue, but they did not expect that he would escape and lose a lot of their men.

"We three parties have miscalculated in this operation." The old man from the Sitianjian said in a deep voice, "Fang Yue is not only extremely powerful, but also extremely cunning. He was able to use the power of the Zhentian Talisman to escape our pursuit."

The middle-aged man from the Blood Dragon Terrace had a gloomy look in his eyes and said, "This boy is indeed not simple. We have underestimated him before. Next, we must make a new plan and make sure to bring him to justice."

The woman in palace dress from the Wei royal family also nodded in agreement: "The Heaven Shocking Talisman is our country's national treasure, and it must not fall into the hands of outsiders. We must retrieve it as soon as possible to avoid any more trouble."

The three of them discussed it and decided to change their strategy.

They no longer acted separately, but gathered the elite forces of the three parties to jointly capture Fang Yue.

At the same time, they also sent out spies to search for Fang Yue's whereabouts, and report immediately if they found anything.

~~~~~
Fang Yue was secretly observing the movements of the old man from the Sitianjian, the middle-aged man from the Xuelongtai, and the woman in palace dress from the Wei royal family.

He knew very well that if he wanted to escape successfully and protect the Heaven-shaking Talisman in his hand, he had to disperse the three forces and then defeat them one by one.

He came up with an idea and decided to use the special vibrations of the Heaven-shaking Talisman to create an illusion and mislead them.

Fang Yue once again mobilized his vital energy and stimulated a trace of the power of the Heaven-shaking Talisman, but this time he controlled the power more delicately, making it appear in three different directions.

Soon, the spies from the three forces all sensed the fluctuations of the Heaven-shaking Talisman.

The old man from the Astronomical Bureau sensed the fluctuations in the east and thought that Fang Yue was trying to escape;

The middle-aged man at the Blood Dragon Terrace sensed the fluctuations in the south and thought Fang Yue might be hiding there;

The ladies in palace dress from the Wei royal family noticed something unusual in the west and suspected that Fang Yue might have set a trap in that direction.

The three men each brought their elite men and chased in the direction they sensed.

Fang Yue was secretly delighted to see that his plan was successful.

He chose to follow the old man from the Imperial Observatory because the old man was slightly weaker than the other two forces, and he judged that the old man might make mistakes in his haste for success.

During the tracking process, Fang Yue deliberately left some subtle clues to make the old man more confident that the direction he was tracking was correct.

Finally, in a remote valley, the old man caught up with "Fang Yue" - in fact, it was just an illusion created by Fang Yue using his vital energy.

When the old man realized that he had been tricked and prepared to retreat, Fang Yue had already emerged from the darkness and launched a fierce attack.

Although the old man was experienced, he gradually fell into a passive position under Fang Yue's rapid attack.

Finally, in a duel, Fang Yue seized the old man's weakness and severely injured him with one blow.

After defeating the old man, Fang Yue quickly left the scene and hid his breath and whereabouts.

He knew that the other two forces would soon notice that something was wrong and return to look for him.

Therefore, he must recover his strength as soon as possible and prepare for the next battle.

As expected, after the middle-aged man from the Blood Dragon Terrace and the woman in palace dress from the Wei royal family failed to track him down, they realized the problem and began to return to look for Fang Yue.

But Fang Yue had made preparations in advance. He used the terrain and concealment skills to evade their search again.

In the next few days, Fang Yue adopted guerrilla tactics, using the power of the Zhentian Talisman to constantly create illusions and distract the attention of the three forces.

Then, he took the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on the middle-aged man in the Blood Dragon Terrace.

After a fierce battle, Fang Yue successfully defeated the middle-aged man and seized the treasure from him.

In the end, only the women in palace dress from the Wei royal family were left.

Fang Yue knew that this battle was coming to an end.

He decided to adopt the same strategy and use the vibrations of the Heaven-shaking Talisman to lure the woman in palace dress into his trap.

However, this time the woman in palace dress was obviously more cautious. She led her men to carefully approach Fang Yue's location.

Seeing this, Fang Yue smiled slightly and immediately appeared.

"Princess, you are the only one left. If you are smart, surrender quickly." Fang Yue's voice echoed in the night sky, with a hint of teasing and provocation. The princess of the Wei royal family, the woman in palace dress, stood not far away with a solemn expression.

Behind her was a group of loyal guards, but they all looked quite nervous.

After the previous battles, they already knew Fang Yue's strength and cunning.

"Fang Yue, do you think you won?"

The princess responded coldly, her voice revealing an unyielding determination, "People of the Wei royal family will never give up easily."

Fang Yue chuckled, and his figure flashed, instantly appearing not far in front of the eldest princess.

The Heaven-shaking Talisman in his hand flashed with a faint light, as if threatening the other party.

"Princess, I don't want to be your enemy," Fang Yue said slowly, "If you tell me the secret of this national treasure, I can let you live."

A trace of anger flashed in the eyes of the princess. She clenched her sword, pointed it at Fang Yue, and said sternly: "Fang Yue, forget it! The Heaven-shaking Talisman is our country's sacred weapon. How can I let my personal feelings affect the affairs of the country? Today, it's either you or me who will die!"

Before she finished her words, the princess swung her sword and rushed towards Fang Yue, the sword flashing and her attack fierce.

Her swordsmanship is not only sharp, but also contains a kind of majesty and dominance unique to the royal family.

Fang Yue was agile and dodged left and right. Facing the eldest princess's fierce attack, he was not in a hurry to counterattack, but looked for the opponent's flaws while dodging.

The two men, one attacking and one defending, fought fiercely in the night.

The eldest princess's attacks became more and more fierce, but Fang Yue remained calm and composed.

Finally, in a fierce confrontation, Fang Yue seized a flaw in the eldest princess and hit her sword wrist with a palm.

The long sword in the eldest princess's hand flew out and stuck into the ground far away.

"Princess, you lost." Fang Yue slowly walked up to her and bent down to look at her.

The eldest princess gritted her teeth and glared at Fang Yue, but did not speak.

She knew she had lost, but her heart was filled with resentment and anger.

Fang Yue smiled slightly and reached out his hand to help the princess up, but she pushed him away.

"You don't have to pretend to be kind!" The princess shouted angrily, "Although I have been defeated, I will never surrender to you!"

Fang Yue shook his head and sighed, "Princess, why are you so stubborn? The Heaven-shaking Talisman is not something your royal family has ever owned. Why would you lose your life for it?"

The eldest princess stared at Fang Yue, her eyes full of defiance and anger.

As a member of the royal family, she is fully aware of her responsibilities and honor, and will never bow her head easily even in the face of failure.

"Fang Yue, stop talking nonsense!"

The princess said coldly, "The Heaven-shaking Talisman has been the national treasure of the Wei royal family since ancient times, protecting the peace and prosperity of the country. How can you, a thief, understand its true value?"

Fang Yue couldn't help but smile when he heard this.

He knew that the eldest princess's belief and obsession with the Zhentian Talisman was due to her greed or desire for power.

"Speak, or you will die!"

Fang Yue's tone suddenly became cold and resolute. He stared into the princess' eyes, as if he wanted to see through her heart:

"Tell me, or you will die! I am not a bloodthirsty person, but if you insist on not telling me, then I will have no choice but to be ruthless."

The eldest princess's expression changed slightly, and she felt the murderous intent from Fang Yue.

However, she did not show any fear, but just took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

"Fang Yue, you may be able to threaten me, but you cannot threaten the honor and faith of the Wei royal family."

The princess' voice was low but full of determination and strength. "The secret of the Heaven-shaking Talisman is not known to me alone. Even if you kill me, you won't get everything you want."

Fang Yue frowned slightly. He did not expect the eldest princess to be so determined.

However, he did not give up, but tried to convince her in another way.

"Princess, I don't want to destroy the glory of your royal family,"

Fang Yue's tone softened a little, "I just want to know the secret of this Heaven-shaking Talisman. Maybe we can find a way that both sides can accept."

The princess looked at Fang Yue with a hint of doubt in her eyes. She seemed to be wondering whether Fang Yue's words were credible.

However, she was well aware of her current situation. If she didn't speak up, she would probably die.

Moreover, she also understood that Fang Yue was not acting without purpose, he must have some purpose.

After weighing the pros and cons, the princess finally spoke: "The secret of the Heaven-shaking Talisman cannot be explained clearly with simple words.

The power and mystery it contains require specific methods and rituals to activate.

I can tell you some basic information, but you need to find out more details by yourself.”

Fang Yue nodded to show his acceptance: "Very good, as long as you are willing to tell me everything you know, I will let you go."

Then, the eldest princess began to explain in detail the origin, function and method of stimulating the power of the Zhentian Talisman.

Fang Yue listened with great interest and gained a deeper understanding of this mysterious talisman.

He gradually understood the true power and importance of the Heaven-shaking Talisman, and also realized how to use it better.

"The power of the Heaven-shaking Talisman comes from the vital energy between heaven and earth," the princess said slowly, "only those who truly know how to guide this vital energy can unleash its maximum power."

Fang Yue's heart moved, and he thought of the scene when he tried to stimulate the power of the Heaven-shaking Talisman before.

He felt like he had touched a threshold, but it was vague.

Now after listening to the eldest princess' explanation, the doubts in his heart gradually cleared up.

"Then, how can we better stimulate the power of the Heaven-shaking Talisman?" Fang Yue couldn't help but ask.

"I do not know either!"

"You don't know either?"

Fang Yue showed an expression of disbelief, "But you are a member of the royal family, you should know something about this national treasure."

The princess sighed softly: "Fang Yue, although I am a member of the royal family, the secret of the Heaven-shaking Talisman is only known by the emperors of all dynasties and a very small number of high-ranking royal family members.

Although I understand some of it, it is not comprehensive.

The real method and ritual of initiation are only known by certain inheritors in the royal family.”

She looked at Fang Yue, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes, "What I can tell you is that the power of the Heaven-shaking Talisman is closely related to the holder's state of mind, cultivation, and perception of the world.

Moreover, its power cannot be used at will, and must follow certain rules and rituals, otherwise it may lead to unpredictable consequences."

Fang Yue fell into deep thought after hearing this. (End of this chapter)
