This item is shaped like a blanket. But this blanket is no ordinary blanket; it is a blanket with attack-absorbing properties.
This blanket will function according to one's cultivation level. If one's cultivation level is still low, such as Chen Long's current level 1 in the Body Purification Realm, then this blanket can only protect with the peak strength of the Body Purification Realm, which is level 10 of the Body Purification Realm.
Therefore, once Chen Long's cultivation reaches a realm above the Body Purification Realm, such as the Body Strengthening Realm, even if he is only at level 1 of the Body Strengthening Realm, this blanket will still be able to protect him up to the strength of level 10 of the Body Strengthening Realm.
This cloak is very useful for Chen Long to face formidable opponents, so he immediately activated it so that when needed, he could simply use it.
Like the formation earlier, this cloak seems to have not been used for thousands of years.
It seems that the Royal Family from a thousand years ago had many powerful cultivators, but their descendants no longer possessed extraordinary talent, so over time they even lost the ability to activate the extraordinary items left by their ancestors.
When a servant came to deliver the medicinal ingredients he needed, Chen Long immediately used the alchemist's cauldron he had found earlier to prepare the medicine.
With the cauldron and Chen Long's past ability to purify medicine, within just a few minutes, the fragrant scent of high-quality pills emanated from the cauldron.
"These are only low-quality pills, but they are more than enough to help me break through the barrier, advance to the second level of body purification, and I can also give these medicines to my older brother or the trustworthy soldiers with talent in this house so they can help me protect this place."
After that, Chen Long immediately swallowed the two pills he had just made.
A powerful explosion occurred as a result of the pills' power entering Chen Long's body.
In an instant, Chen Long ascended to the second level of the Body Purification Realm.
After solidifying his foundation, Chen Long immediately left his room and gave the pills to Chen Yiling, as well as several trusted soldiers under his father's command.
"Where did you get these pills?" Chen Yiling asked, staring at the object in Chen Long's hand.
"You didn't make them, did you?" Chen Yiling continued.
To avoid making Chen Yiling doubt the quality of the pills, Chen Long said, "I obtained these pills along with the Divine Pill I consumed. Although these pills aren't as high-quality as the Divine Pill I took, they're still quite good."
"This is also very good for you. The poison previously in your body can be neutralised, and even with the poison's strength combined with this pill, you can ascend four minor realms at once," Chen Long continued to Chen Yiling.
After hearing Chen Long's words and knowing Chen Long's incredible abilities, which had been surprising everyone lately, Chen Yiling and the other guards didn't hesitate. They immediately took the pills.
The pills immediately caused a huge stir.
Chen Yiling, who had previously been at the fourth level of the Body Purification Realm, suddenly experienced breakthrough after breakthrough.
She managed to achieve four consecutive breakthroughs, bringing her to the eighth level of the Body Purification Realm. In fact, she had reached the peak of the eighth level of the Body Purification Realm and was on the verge of breaking through to the ninth level.
Chen Yiling cheered with joy upon seeing this.
The head guards also cheered with joy because they all achieved breakthroughs. Some achieved breakthroughs up to one small realm, while others achieved two small realms.
Chen Yiling now looked at Chen Long. "We achieved high breakthroughs, but why are you still at the second level of the Body Purification Realm?"
"Don't worry, sis. I am indeed only at the second level of the Body Purification Realm, but my abilities are no less than yours. In fact, I can assure you that I am stronger than you. I can even challenge the experts in the Body Strengthening Realm."
"The palace experts are in the Body Strengthening Realm. Are you really able to fight them?" Chen Yiling asked her younger brother with a questioning look.
Chen Long puffed out his chest. "I'm sure I can defeat them. I also have some items. So, even if I'm at a disadvantage because of my low cultivation level, I still have some items to defeat them."
"What items are you talking about, son?" asked Mrs. Chen.
"Items like this..." Chen Long didn't answer immediately; instead, he led everyone to the front yard. Then he threw something towards the front yard, and a loud explosion occurred.
"What is that? What happened?" Mrs. Chen was very shocked by what had happened.
One of the head guards, who had extensive knowledge, immediately said, "It's a formation. This house has been sealed by a formation!" He looked panicked.
Chen Long smiled. "More accurately, it's not sealed off, but protected by the formation. This formation is one of my possessions that has the power to withstand great external forces, and I can assure you that those with only the strength of the Body Purification Realm or the lower levels of the Body Strengthening Realm will not be able to breach this formation. So you will all be safe here."
"Is there really such a thing?" Chen Yiling was deeply impressed. Then she tried to strike outward.
A loud explosion occurred. She felt as though her strike had hit an extremely thick wall, rendering her blow meaningless, so she couldn't break through to the outside.
Mrs. Chen's expression changed. "In that case, we'll stay here. No one is leaving. We'll take shelter in this house until Minister Chen arrives."
"This formation is to protect you. Meanwhile, I'll go fetch Father and Officer Cian," said Chen Long as he stepped toward the formation.
"Once I'm outside the formation, I'll activate it so no one can enter or exit this house again. I'll reactivate the exit when I return."
Chen Yiling immediately stepped forward. "Then I'll help you rescue Father and Officer Cian from captivity."
But Chen Long shook his head immediately. "No. You must stay in this house because the enemies I'll face are very powerful. You'll be a burden to me if I have to carry you, sis."
"But my cultivation is higher than yours. I don't believe I'd lose to you," Chen Yiling glared at Chen Long.
Chen Long smiled. Then he performed a pushing movement towards Chen Yiling.
Seeing that movement, Chen Yiling immediately unleashed all her new cultivation, which had reached the 8th level of the Body Purification Realm.
But her body had to retreat ten steps backward, indicating that she was completely unable to match Chen Long.
"Wait here, my brother. You're not strong enough to follow me yet." After saying that, Chen Long immediately exited the formation.
When he exited the formation, he was already facing a group of people.
