Peerless Prodigy Chen Yunxuan

In the royal chambers of the Great Zhou Kingdom, Chen Changan and Da Huang were crouched before a tea table, staring intently at something on top of it.

After a long silence, Da Huang asked, "You think this is it?"

"I don't think so. It's definitely not," Chen Changan replied with firm conviction.

"But I kinda feel like it is, it's just... a bit dark," Da Huang shook his head, disagreeing with Chen Changan.

"I want to kill someone," Chen Changan exuded a heavy aura of resentment.

"Kill who?"

"Everyone!"

"That's a bit much. You could start by digging up the grave of that descendant from your Chen Family, and then chop down the King of the Great Zhou Kingdom."

"If that doesn't satisfy you, you could annihilate his entire clan."

"Killing everyone is unnecessary. The others are innocent," Da Huang said gleefully from the side.

"Shut up."

"What's it to me? It's not like I did it," Da Huang retorted impatiently.

"What a sin!"

"What a sin!"

Chen Changan was on the verge of tears. He had considered many possibilities, but the worst one had happened.

The good news was that the Fetal Pearl had been found.

The bad news was that Chen Changan regretted finding it.

The Fetal Pearl was indeed in the hands of the royal family, and currently in the possession of the King of the Great Zhou Kingdom.

But this incredibly important item, instead of being researched or given away, was being played with in his hand every day?

The King had practically polished the Fetal Pearl until it was smooth!

The Fetal Pearl was dark and oily, making Chen Changan feel nauseous. How was he supposed to fuse with it? Just looking at it made him sick!

"You really don't want it?"

"This is very important to you. Besides, you're not going to eat it, so what are you afraid of?" Da Huang said dismissively.

As far as Da Huang was concerned, it wasn't meant to be eaten, so what if it was a little dirty?

"Do you know what 'disgusting' means?"

"Uh... no."

"Forget it. I can't talk to you. You're something that eats poop."

"Chen Changan, you can't slander me! When did I ever eat poop?"

"When you ate people, did you make sure to clean out their insides first?"

"This..."

"Still saying you haven't eaten poop?"

"It seems... there's some truth to that. So I have eaten poop!"

Da Huang began to recall carefully, as if trying to savor the taste of poop.

"Hmm... it digested too quickly. I don't seem to remember the taste," Da Huang said, even sticking out his tongue and licking his lips.

"Blech!"

"You're truly disgusting!"

Chen Changan couldn't stand it anymore. He took a deep breath, stopped bickering with Da Huang, and looked at the Fetal Pearl on the tea table.

"Damn it, I'll risk it."

From the moment Chen Changan saw the Fetal Pearl, his body had reacted strongly, urging him to fuse with it quickly.

If it weren't for the Fetal Pearl's current "refreshing" appearance, Chen Changan would have already picked it up and fused with it.

As he held the Fetal Pearl, it reacted, transforming into a dark and oily light. However, this time, it didn't enter Chen Changan's glabella.

Instead, it went into his heart.

"Hoo, I feel so comfortable. I can absorb spiritual energy again."

"It seems that to continue cultivating, I must find the remaining seven Fetal Pearls," Chen Changan said with a smile.

"Alright, let's go. If we delay any longer, that kid Chen Yunxuan won't be able to hold on," Da Huang urged from the side.

He had been helping Chen Changan find the Fetal Pearls and hadn't had a chance to witness the grand spectacle unfolding outside.

BANG!

Uncle Liu repelled Chen Yunxuan with another palm strike. The indifference in his eyes began to shift.

Was this kid truly fearless of death? Knowing he was outmatched, why did he keep charging forward?

"You're very good. Both your talent and your strength far surpass those of your peers."

"But what exactly is your goal in acting like this?"

"Knowing you can't win, why do you keep fighting?" Uncle Liu asked the question in his heart.

Chen Yunxuan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and suddenly laughed as he looked at Uncle Liu.

"So what if I can't win?"

"Running away is not my choice, and surrendering is even less so."

"Your strength is indeed greater than mine, but that doesn't mean I'll give up because of it."

"As long as I'm not dead, I will keep fighting!"

"I'll fight until my last breath!"

Chen Yunxuan's words earned him the admiration of many. Cultivators should be like this!

Without the determination to press forward, how could one carve out a place in this world?

"What a shame!"

Uncle Liu felt a pang of pity at this moment. Such a genius truly shouldn't perish here.

But he had orders from the young master, so he couldn't hold back.

"I hope you won't regret your decision today."

Before his words could even fall, Uncle Liu attacked again. This time, Uncle Liu held nothing back, intending to end the fight directly!

Seeing Uncle Liu attack, Chen Yunxuan suddenly closed his eyes.

At this sight, everyone was puzzled. Didn't he just say he wouldn't give up?

Then why is he doing this now? Is he powerless and waiting to die?

While others were confused, Uncle Liu also frowned, unsure of what Chen Yunxuan was doing.

Just as Uncle Liu's attack was imminent, a powerful aura suddenly erupted from Chen Yunxuan's body.

Sensing this powerful aura, Uncle Liu's expression changed, and he quickly switched from offense to defense.

Bang!

"How is this possible!"

"What did Chen Yunxuan do?"

"God, is he going against the heavens again? This person is in the Divine Ability Realm."

"Unbelievable, simply unbelievable!"

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Uncle Liu was actually repelled by the aura that erupted from Chen Yunxuan's body!

This once again shattered their understanding of Chen Yunxuan's strength, and they even began to question their own lives.

Is this still the Transcendent Realm?

"Enlightenment!"

"This kid actually achieved enlightenment?"

"Not only can he break through his cultivation in battle, but he can also achieve enlightenment?"

"He…"

Enlightenment, something so many people dream of, but it requires comprehension and opportunity.

Who ever heard of someone suddenly achieving enlightenment in the middle of a fight?

Just how high is this kid's comprehension?

The reason Uncle Liu was repelled earlier was because Chen Yunxuan had just entered a state of enlightenment, and the energy that erupted from his body was too powerful.

But this power wouldn't last forever, meaning that Chen Yunxuan, in his current state of enlightenment, was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

"What a shame, achieving enlightenment is not easy."

"But in this environment, it's no different from seeking death," Uncle Liu sighed helplessly.

His sigh contained a hint of envy; throughout his life, he had never experienced enlightenment.

"Young Master, observing during a moment of enlightenment can also be beneficial for your cultivation."

"Why don't you…"

Uncle Liu's intention was clear: if Cheng Yushu could carefully observe this situation, it might benefit his cultivation path, and he also didn't want to take advantage of someone's misfortune.

Hearing Uncle Liu's words, Cheng Yushu frowned. After a brief moment of hesitation, he decided to cut the Gordian knot to avoid future complications.

"Uncle Liu, this Chen Yunxuan is too monstrous. We cannot give him any chances!"

"Kill him!" Cheng Yushu said in a deep voice.

Cheng Yushu's words made many people breathe a sigh of relief. They were afraid Cheng Yushu would agree, and then Chen Yunxuan would make a comeback after his enlightenment!

"This… I understand."

Uncle Liu nodded helplessly, his gaze towards Chen Yunxuan filled with complexity.

"What a shame."

"How many years does it take for the Northern Region to produce such a monstrous talent? I never expected he would die by my hand today."

"You are not qualified to kill him yet."

The sudden voice startled everyone. The next moment, Chen Changan, with Da Huang, appeared in front of Chen Yunxuan, blocking Uncle Liu from attacking!

"Who... who is this?"

"Is he also from the Chen Family?"
