“If you want to integrate the power of multiple laws, the power of Chaos Black Lotus is indispensable. And twelve is the number of Zhou Tian. If the Chaos Black Lotus wants to reach maturity, it will probably need to produce twelve lotus flowers.” Huo Lingzi continued.
"If you want the Chaos Black Lotus to continue to grow, you need to absorb more innate energy. Magical weapons containing innate energy are so rare. Twelve lotuses, how easy is that?" Shen Luo sighed.
"Tsk, just because you don't have it doesn't mean that others don't have it either. The major sects have profound foundations, and now is the time when we need them." Huo Lingzi said with a "tsk".
After he finished speaking, he immediately regretted it. When he thought that a large number of high-level magic weapons would be destroyed by Shen Luo's hands, he became heartbroken again.
Shen Luo's eyes lit up, and he immediately stood up, left the Well of Gods and Demons, and went directly to the Chang'an government office to meet Yuan Tiangang.
The atmosphere in Chang'an City was solemn at this time. Martial law was imposed everywhere inside and outside the city, and there was no trace of the bustling atmosphere.
Arriving at the Chang'an government office, Shen Luo discovered that the defenses here were several times stricter than before. The official outside the gate who was responsible for checking the identities of people coming and going had been replaced by a True Immortal cultivator with two Mahayana cultivators.
Although the man knew Shen Luo, he still followed the routine and verified Shen Luo's identity before letting him in.
Halfway through, Shen Luo saw an official running towards him in a hurry.
"Master Shen, the Imperial Master and the others are already waiting for you in Sihai Hall." The clerk came up and said immediately.
"The Imperial Master knows that I'm coming?" Shen Luo asked in surprise.
"Before you arrived at the government office, the intelligence from the city had already been passed on. The current situation is special, and everyone in the city is on high alert and is under surveillance by spies." The clerk replied.
"Has there been any incidents in the city recently?" Shen Luo asked with a frown.
"The city patrol officers and government monks have discovered several demon spies, and several battles have broken out in the city. None of them were large in scale, but the impact was very bad. People in the city are now in a panic, and many want to flee." The clerk jogged over here just now, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said.
"There are not many places in this world safer than Chang'an." Shen Luo sighed and said quietly.
The clerk did not hear Shen Luo's words clearly, and continued: "Right now, the city is under strict defense, not only the demon clan spies, but also many monsters and even humans who have secretly wanted to defect to the demon clan and quietly sent news outside. However, two days ago, Duke Cheng ordered a large number of them to be killed, and the situation has improved a little."
"There are always people like this whenever there is a disaster. It's unavoidable." Shen Luo shook his head.
As he was speaking, he had already arrived at Sihaitang.
After the officials left, Shen Luo walked into the courtyard alone and came to the main hall, where he saw the Imperial Master Yuan Tiangang standing at the door waiting for him.
The Imperial Master's expression was the same as usual, without any sign of anxiety on his face, but the fact that he was waiting at the door explained a lot of things.
After entering the hall, Shen Luo looked around and saw several familiar figures.
In addition to the national teacher Yuan Tiangang, the immortal Zhenyuan of Wuzhuang Temple, the Bodhi ancestor of Fangcun Mountain, the Duke Cheng Yaojin, and the young master of Tianji City were all on the list.
