It wasn't forced; that was the attitude she conveyed.

This also relieved Chen Yuan. If he couldn't complete the trial and become a formal member, he would seriously consider whether to join.

What he valued most about Dao Shen Palace was the equality and freedom that Su Ziyue had mentioned before.

"It seems the Ascending Immortal Fruit is very useful to someone in Dao Shen Palace..." Chen Yuan said softly.

Su Ziyue didn't deny it, "That's right, the Ascending Immortal Fruit is very useful to one of the members of Dao Shen Palace, but the conditions offered by Martial Emperor City are too heavy. Dao Shen Palace must pay a huge price to fulfill them."

This was the first time she revealed some of the secrets of Dao Shen Palace to Chen Yuan.

Dao Shen Palace's current high regard for Chen Yuan was partly due to this reason.

"What if I still can't get the Ascending Immortal Fruit?" Chen Yuan couldn't help but ask.

"What do you think?" Su Ziyue asked in return.

"I understand," Chen Yuan nodded.

"Just do your best..." Su Ziyue couldn't help but say.

She had seen many geniuses like him, and most of them had a common characteristic: arrogance. The arrogance radiated from their bones. Pushing them too hard would only breed resentment.

What they sought was equality.

Although Chen Yuan wasn't yet a formal member, he had a high chance of becoming one. Otherwise, other reserve members wouldn't be qualified for her to explain anything.

"Earlier, Miss Su said that I would have two opportunities to have a formal member of Dao Shen Palace protect me. How do I contact them? In a life-or-death situation, even if the powerhouse of Dao Shen Palace wanted to rescue me, it would be too late, right?"

He asked indirectly.

Su Ziyue glanced at Chen Yuan with a smile, knowing the meaning behind his words, and avoided the main point, saying:

"Only formal members can possess a sound transmission device. I will give you two talismans. As long as you are within a thousand *li*, the powerhouse of Dao Shen Palace will know and come to find you."

Chen Yuan was silent for a moment. Was that what he meant?

He just wanted to know who the other members of Dao Shen Palace were. According to Su Ziyue, a powerhouse seemed to be within Qing Province.

If possible, Chen Yuan wanted to know his identity even more.

However, Su Ziyue had said before that only formal members could know each other's identities. It would seem a bit abrupt if he asked.

After saying that, a flash of light appeared in Su Ziyue's hand, and two talismans appeared, with slightly different styles. One was cyan, and the other was black.

No, they had one thing in common: each talisman had a sword drawn on it.

Su Ziyue picked up a cyan talisman and said, "This talisman is a sound transmission and positioning talisman. As long as you burn it, the powerhouse of Dao Shen Palace will receive the message."

"As for this one..." Su Ziyue placed the black talisman in front of Chen Yuan with a solemn expression:

"It contains a sealed sword *qi*. Anyone below the Dan Realm will definitely die, and for Dan Realm experts, it depends on the opponent's strength. They might be seriously injured, or lightly injured."

She didn't say anything about being unharmed. Perhaps in her opinion, no Dan Realm expert in Qing Province could be unscathed under that sword *qi*.

Chen Yuan's heart trembled. This was a true method of protection, a foolproof life-saving method. He felt that this talisman containing the sealed sword *qi* alone was worth at least ten thousand gold!

Dao Shen Palace really valued him.

Seeing the fleeting look of shock in Chen Yuan's eyes, the corners of Su Ziyue's mouth slightly curved. Few people could treat such treasures casually, and it was normal for the steady Chen Yuan to be surprised.

"Thank you."

Chen Yuan cupped his hands very solemnly.

Although this thing was free, he would have to repay this favor in the future, and it was definitely an extraordinary thing. After all, no one knew if they could live to reach the Dan Realm.

The other party was also making a risk investment.

"No need to be so polite. This is Dao Shen Palace's high regard for you. As long as it can protect your Dao path, what are a few talismans?" Su Ziyue waved her hand.

This was Dao Shen Palace's consistent style: strong individuals helping weak individuals they valued. Of course, they wouldn't be infinitely tolerant, or they wouldn't be able to stimulate the other party's potential.

"Now you know that Dao Shen Palace is not inferior to any force, right? I'm not afraid to tell you that even disciples of the top sects in the world are mostly only given equivalent things by their sects. You now... are not inferior to the core disciples of any top sect in the world."

Chen Yuan's expression had already shown her that he was a little shaken. Perhaps he was confident in his talent and had some doubts about Dao Shen Palace, or perhaps other forces had contacted him.

His gaze lingered on the two types of talismans for a moment, Chen Yuan suddenly narrowed his eyes and said softly:

"It seems that the formal member of Dao Shen Palace in Qing Province should be a powerhouse who uses a sword?"

Su Ziyue wasn't surprised. This was obvious. Seeing Chen Yuan's very curious appearance, her eyes flashed and she said:

"You want to know his identity?"

"If I can know, that would be the best." When he saw the two sword talismans, he already had a guess in his mind. There were only a few powerhouses in Qing Province who used swords.

As long as he could make contact, he felt he should be able to determine it.

"If you know, even if you don't become a formal member, you can't withdraw halfway. Otherwise, you will definitely be hunted down by Dao Shen Palace with all its might."

"Miss Su is saying that as if I won't be hunted down if I withdraw now," Chen Yuan smiled. From the day he became a reserve member, he had this awareness.

"It's not the same. The extent to which you are hunted down if you withdraw now and the extent to which you are hunted down if you know the identity of a formal member are different."

"Rest assured."

"Okay, since you want to know so much..." Su Ziyue covered her mouth and chuckled, "Then I will satisfy you."

Then, another flash of light appeared in her hand, and a simple, mirror-like yellow jade stone appeared. She pointed her finger and leaned closer, whispering:

"Chen Yuan wants to know your true identity. I'm telling him in advance now. Do you have any objections?"

After about three breaths, a cold male voice came from the jade stone:

"Meddling."

Su Ziyue chuckled, put away the mirror, and looked at Chen Yuan's eyes and said: "Originally, he wanted to tell you his identity himself, but I just don't want to fulfill his wish. Now, I will tell you in advance."

Chen Yuan lowered his eyelids and didn't speak.

The Su Ziyue opposite him continued:

"That guy is your direct superior, the Qing Province Gold Envoy, Jiang He!"

"Boom!"

This sentence was like a fierce punch exploding in Chen Yuan's heart. The Qing Province Gold Envoy, Jiang He, was actually a member of Dao Shen Palace!

It was really unbelievable that the people of Dao Shen Palace had already infiltrated to this level.

In that case, what Su Ziyue said just now, that there was another powerhouse in Dao Shen Palace who competed for the Ascending Immortal Fruit before, but the person who ultimately failed should be him.

He had heard Ye Chenbai say before that Jiang He was ranked third on the Potential Dragon List more than ten years ago.

Moreover, he was revered as the Sword God.

These two talismans should have been made by Jiang He.

"Otherwise, why do you think you've been in Nanling Prefecture for so long and Qing Province City hasn't urged you? Isn't it because Jiang He already knew your identity through me?"

Su Ziyue glared at Chen Yuan, quite charmingly.

"So that's how it is."

Chen Yuan belatedly realized that what Tao Qingyuan said before, that the Qing Province Gold Envoy valued him, should also be because he was a reserve member of Dao Shen Palace.

"The power of Dao Shen Palace is far beyond your imagination. Jiang He is only one of them. There are other, even stronger existences. You will naturally know some of these when you become a formal member."

Following Chen Yuan's shock, Su Ziyue pointed out.

"With him here, I dare not say about other places, but in Qing Province, you don't need to fear any forces. In this way, you can also let go and meet all the talents in the world,

The Ascending Immortal Fruit is not impossible to seize!"

The reason why she took the liberty of revealing Jiang He's identity was mainly because they had discussed it before, and after obtaining Jiang He's consent, they decided to tell Chen Yuan to reassure him.

However, Jiang He's plan was to tell Chen Yuan himself and give him a surprise.

But Su Ziyue, because of something that happened before, just didn't want to fulfill his wishes in some small matters.

"I understand," Chen Yuan nodded.

Before, he deliberately kept a low profile. Besides not wanting to be high-profile and attract attention, it was also because he didn't have a strong backer behind him. He wasn't afraid of his peers,

But it would be disgusting if the little ones were beaten and the old ones came out.

But now that he had Jiang He to protect him, Chen Yuan really didn't need to fear these forces in Qing Province. Even if there were people stronger than Jiang He,

Didn't Jiang He still have Dao Shen Palace behind him?

Of course, Chen Yuan was still only a reserve member now, and it was impossible for him to be so arrogant and rampant. He just had confidence in his heart. Su Ziyue had said during their first meeting that Dao Shen Palace also had enemies.

His small body couldn't withstand being ravaged.

This trip was really the right one. Not only did he overdraft life-saving methods, but he also had a backer. Although he had to repay it in the future, he was still happy in his heart.

He didn't know much about other powerhouses in Qing Province, but he knew something about his direct superior, the Sword God Jiang He. He knew that he was at the peak of the Dan Realm.

His combat power was unparalleled, and he was ranked seventeenth on the Wind and Cloud List.

Even several Divine Envoys of the Patrol Tribunal were vying to win him over, which showed his strength and talent.

"It's good that you understand. Now you can go to Qing Province City with peace of mind, right?"

"I was originally going to set off in the next few days."

"Well, what I said just now, that Dao Shen Palace will also give you some inclined resources, refers to this thing. I also came to find you specifically for this thing."

"Otherwise, those talismans should have been given to you by Jiang He, and he would have revealed his identity to you."

As she said that, as if by magic, a flash of light appeared in Su Ziyue's hand, and a jade token appeared, with a simple style that seemed to have some origin.

However, the point that Chen Yuan was focusing on was Su Ziyue's changing methods. If he guessed correctly, Su Ziyue should have treasures like mustard seeds containing Sumeru.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for things to appear with a flash of light.

You know, in his eyes, Su Ziyue's clothes were quite revealing. Apart from her large lights, there was basically no place to hide things.
