Imperial Cultivation

Chapter 715: Chapter 711: Retrieving the Blades

He looked helpless.

Still no success.

The Light Ode had power emerging because the nature of Divine Language is the pivot of Heaven and Earth, capable of harnessing and controlling Heaven and Earth’s power.

But simultaneously, the manifestation of Divine Language also requires the support of power.

Despite not inheriting the Divine Language and not understanding it, Chu Family Ancestor Chu Chunhan had gleaned some insights into the essence of light through it.

Even so, using the Light Ode to evolve still requires tremendous power support.

Wanting to write the two characters of light from the Divine Language now, the obstruction is as strong as tenfold.

Far beyond what he can withstand now.

Thinking of this, he sighed again.

Lacking power is not just Cultivation; it’s also the physical body and the soul.

Compared to humans, the Divine Race completely crushes them in all aspects—Essence Qi, Spiritual, all are crushed.

To reach the level of the Divine Race, there’s probably only one path, which is the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record.

He has been cultivating it during this time with rapid progress, constantly advancing.

He feels the rapid progress is probably due to the inadequacy in his physical quality.

If it were the Divine Race, progress wouldn’t be this fast.

Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record...

He looked up towards the Void, shaking his head in helplessness.

Even with the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record, it likely won’t reach the Divine Race’s standard in a short time.

The First Form of it is still uncertain when it will reach Perfection.

Is there a quicker way to carve out Divine Language?

He searched through his memories.

In the original master’s memory, there are similar secret techniques that inspire potential, and also the Jade and Stone Burning Method.

But none of these secret techniques and Secret Techniques are as good as the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique.

Utilizing the uniqueness of the heavenly demon to squeeze the body’s potential to its limit, causing the body to rapidly collapse.

Before the body’s collapse, power reaches an unimaginable extreme, and then the Demon Soul exits the body to seek a host.

Of course, both Demon Clan and humans have similar Jade and Stone Burning secret techniques, though not as powerful as the Demon Clan.

Nor able to escape.

The strength of the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique lies in the physical strength of the heavenly demons.

The Essence Qi of the Demon Clan far surpasses humans, though its soul does not; the Essence Qi, Spiritual, everything of the Demon Clan far surpasses humans.

”Aunt, summon Li Yuzhen,” he called loudly.

”Yes,” You Lan answered from outside.

Li Yuzhen stood gracefully in front of him, calmly looking at him.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”She has already set off for the Outer Realm Battlefield, hasn’t she?”

”Your Highness still needs a few days to handle affairs inside and outside the Inner Mansion before setting off.”

Chu Zhiyuan took out a plain sheet from his sleeve and handed it to her: ”Go back once and take two Flying Knives from here for her.”

His right hand appeared with an Autumn Water Divine Blade, which he presented to Li Yuzhen: ”Exactly like this blade.”

Li Yuzhen looked at him puzzledly, then at the Autumn Water Divine Blade.

Chu Zhiyuan asked, ”Can you do it?”

”This...” Li Yuzhen showed difficulty.

This Flying Knife obviously is not ordinary; it is a lethal weapon.

But Your Highness is not versed in the Flying Knife Skill and has no use for it.

Why give a Flying Knife to Your Highness, is it an engagement token?

But tokens have already been exchanged; there’s no need for another.

Chu Zhiyuan snorted: ”No success?”

Li Yuzhen opened the plain sheet, looking at the map drawn on it.

It was a winding, somewhat baffling map, leaving her at a loss.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”This is a map within the Imperial City of the Phoenix Dynasty.”

”Inside the Imperial City?” Li Yuzhen suddenly realized, looking over, finally recognizing the marked places, exclaimed: ”At the Wangfu Bridge beside the Yuqing River?”

Chu Zhiyuan nodded with a smile: ”Wangfu Bridge? It does seem like a bridge.”

Li Yuzhen showed a puzzled expression.

She was very curious about the origin of this map, more curious why those two Flying Knives were there.

And how they got there.

Feeling that the whole matter was inexplicably peculiar inside and out.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”These two Flying Knives are my Strange Treasures, to be sent to the Outer Realm Battlefield to absorb Spiritual Energy, thereby increasing their power.”

Li Yuzhen suddenly realized.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Will your highness agree?”

Li Yuzhen breathed a sigh of relief, gently nodding: ”If it’s this way, Your Highness should agree.”

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Then go quickly, don’t miss the opportunity.”

”And should Your Highness bring them back?”

”Have her throw these two blades at the closest point to the Demon Clan to absorb some Demonic Qi, ... whether they can be brought back, don’t force it; if encountered, bring them back, if not, it doesn’t matter.”

”...Okay.” Li Yuzhen said: ”I will take out the Flying Knife, explain to Your Highness, but ultimately how Your Highness decides, I can only follow orders.”

Chu Zhiyuan nodded: ”Understood, understood, much obliged.”

”No need for courtesy, Prince Consort, I take my leave.” Li Yuzhen left gracefully.

Chu Zhiyuan watched her disappearing back, pondered for a moment, and shook his head.

Currently, he is just an isolated Ninth Prince, lacking talent under him.

Orders couldn’t leave the Prince Mansion, nor anyone to ally and act, hands bound and feet tied.

Another way to send the two Flying Knives into the Outer Realm Battlefield is to ask Chu Honglin for help.

But Chu Honglin knows the depths of the Autumn Water Divine Blade and would be more curious.

This involves the secret of his Avatar; even with Chu Honglin, caution is needed.

The best choice instead becomes the Twelfth Princess.

Xiao Ruoling presently resides within the Grotto Heaven, moreover with very low status and Cultivation, unlikely to help send them into the Outer Realm Battlefield.

Profound Yin Palace

Xiao Ruoling and Shen Hanyue were drinking tea in the small courtyard, looking leisurely.

The two lounge chairs swayed gently, tea plates and tea cups placed on the table between.

Shen Hanyue lazily squinted her eyes, looking at the azure sky, sighing: ”Senior Sister, the harvest this time is enormous.”

Xiao Ruoling smiled.

Shen Hanyue said, ”Who would have thought we could snatch the quota? Hehe, such a huge harvest, but unfortunately it can’t directly belong to us.”

The rules of Profound Yin Palace’s Grotto Heaven differ from those of Yujing Dynasty’s Grotto Heaven.

Their Grotto Heaven allows personal acquisition after entering.

Whereas Profound Yin Palace’s rules, half the harvest belongs to the Sect, while the other half is personal.

Their Grotto Heaven disperses upon entry, unable to gather unless with Strange Treasures like the Spiritual Rhinoceros Pearl, you can reunite.

Profound Yin Palace tends to form teams.

Almost never solo.

Xiao Ruoling and Shen Hanyue were naturally isolated, only two of them.

The other eight formed two teams, each with four people.

Four people a team, still with higher cultivation and previous Grotto Heaven experience.

Their two teams’ harvest combined was only half of Xiao Ruoling and Shen Hanyue’s.

The sheer amount of their harvest stunned even the Sect Elder responsible for counting.

This harvest has been the greatest in the Sect’s history by disciples.

Directly amazed all disciples of Profound Yin Palace, including True Disciples.

Their good fortune spread throughout Profound Yin Palace.

Their situation improved severalfold.

Xiao Ruoling laughed: ”Even if to us in whole, we couldn’t swallow it, this half is enough.”

”We can exchange for other Spirit Pills and Treasures,” Shen Hanyue excitedly said: ”This wave is enough for us to Cultivate to the Transformation Realm.”

Xiao Ruoling nodded lightly.

More than enough, with plenty to spare.

”Senior Sister, they think we are lucky.” Shen Hanyue leaned close, lowering her voice: ”Actually...”

”It’s luck,” Xiao Ruoling interrupted her, looking at her deeply.

Shen Hanyue giggled: ”Yes, it’s good luck!”
