In the imperial capital.
Chen Qingyu returned to the Qianyuan Hall, sat on the dragon throne, and reflected on the battle that had just taken place.
Powerful beings at the Divine Treasure Realm and above are protected by the power of the Divine Treasure, making them very difficult to deal with.
Those at the Divine Treasure Realm are manageable; their strength is far inferior to mine, and I can kill them with a few punches and kicks. They pose no threat.
However, if it is a being at the Zhoutian Realm, or even stronger, then in battle, they become an impregnable fortress.
Chen Qingyu fell into deep thought.
This time, the most important reason he was able to kill Zhou Qiren was his two supernatural abilities: [ Flying Body and Tracelessness ] and [ Seven Nailhead Arrows ].
[ Flying Body and Tracelessness ] allows him to ignore the barriers of Divine Treasure power, traverse space, and launch a surprise attack on the opponent;
The Seven Nailhead Arrows, with their element of surprise, caused Zhou Qiren a great loss, severely damaging his soul and rendering him unable to control the power of the Divine Treasure. Zhou Qiren took advantage of this weakness and used the Calamity of Annihilation to suppress the Divine Treasure.
Otherwise, defeating Zhou Qiren wouldn't be so easy for him.
My biggest disadvantage now is that I cannot control the mysteries of space.
Compared to the other Zhoutian Realm experts, I am not on the same level as them, which is quite troublesome.
The complete Divine Treasure power is equivalent to forming a world of its own, capable of isolating itself from external threats.
If Zhou Qiren's Divine Treasure power is intact, the effect of his Calamity of Annihilation will be greatly reduced; at most, it can only weaken his strength, but it will be difficult to completely suppress him.
Ultimately:
It wasn't that his methods were weak, but rather that his cultivation level was insufficient, preventing him from reaching the profound mysteries of space.
If he were also at the Divine Treasure Realm, then even if the Calamity of Annihilation were separated by layers of space and different worlds, he could still suppress it all at once!
Yes, mastering spatial mysteries is my weakness; I must find a way to do so as soon as possible.
With this thought in mind, Chen Qingyu made a decision.
Once the [ Standing Upright Without a Shadow ] transformation is complete, the next supernatural power to be developed using the Myriad Calamity Wheel Seal will be [ Flying Body and Tracelessness ]!
This supernatural ability played a significant role in his battle with Zhou Qiren and is well worth further strengthening.
Qingzhou.
Prince Cheng slowly awoke from his bed and saw the familiar bed curtains.
This is
A hint of confusion flashed in his eyes, then memories flooded back, reminding him of his previous experiences.
Vice Hall Master Zhou is dead!
He suddenly sat up, his face deathly pale.
Your Highness!
Your Highness is awake!
A flurry of excited shouts suddenly erupted beside the bed.
Prince Cheng turned his head and saw a large number of royal relatives, nobles and dignitaries, who all gathered around him with joy on their faces.
Brother! You've finally woken up!
A young man dressed in a bright yellow robe couldn't help but say:
We are all very worried about you. If something happens to you, there will be no one to make decisions.
After Prince Cheng fainted:
The remaining members of the royal family and nobles were immediately thrown into chaos. They could only hastily collect Zhou Qiren's body and rush back to the Qingzhou government office.
Logically speaking, with the internal strife within the royal family long-standing and Prince Cheng in a coma, this should have been a good opportunity to seize power.
However:
With even a powerful being from the Upper Realm's Zhoutian Realm and the Deputy Hall Master of the World Oversight Hall killed, everyone was filled with fear and anxiety, as if the end of the world was approaching. How could they possibly have any other thoughts?
Prince Cheng is alive, at least there's someone to take the blame. Anyone who tries to seize power and take his place at this time would be insane.
Um
Prince Cheng glanced at him, remaining silent, his heart heavy.
Looking back on everything that had happened not long ago, he still felt it was absurd and unbelievable.
Originally, he was prepared to follow Vice Hall Master Zhou on the expedition and kill the usurper in front of the world as a warning to others!
But to my utter surprise:
Before the army could even assemble, their trusted Vice Hall Master Zhou, was killed by the usurper!
Where is that traitor now?
Prince Cheng remained silent for a long while before slowly speaking, his voice somewhat hoarse.
Return to Your Highness.
An elderly man in purple robes spoke cautiously:
According to our intelligence, the man returned to the capital after killing Vice Hall Master Zhou.
Upon hearing this, Prince Cheng scoffed:
We are truly like ants, not even worthy of being glanced at by the other side.
Upon hearing this, the group exchanged glances but remained silent.
Faced with such a terrifying existence, they felt no resentment or anger; they wished the other party would treat them like ants and ignore them completely.
Things have come to this point:
They also fully understood that the usurper's goal was probably not the throne of the Zhongliang Kingdom, and that there was absolutely no hope for them to restore their country on their own.
call
Prince Cheng took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:
Help me up!
Imperial brother!
The young man in the yellow robe quickly stepped forward and helped Prince Cheng off the bed, whispering:
What does the Emperor intend to do?
Upon hearing this, all eyes in the room fixed on Prince Cheng, silently awaiting his reply. (Meow Meow said)
Things have come to this point; we have nowhere left to retreat!
Prince Cheng's gaze swept around the room, his tone low and somber:
I must ascend to the Temple of Heaven again to report the details of this matter and request the Upper Realm to take action!
Upon hearing this, the others nodded silently.
Given their situation, this was the only option.
The Upper World, within the Taicang Heavenly Capital.
A group of powerful individuals gathered in the World Oversight Hall, chatting idly while waiting for Zhou Qiren to return.
Brother Zhou has been gone for an hour, why hasn't he returned yet?
That's right. With his strength, he could kill that traitor and avenge Brother Zhao in less than half an hour, right?
Well, maybe he's thinking of making a big show of things, making an example of someone to warn others, and helping Brother Zhao's descendants?
That's quite possible. Brother Zhao has unfortunately passed away, and Brother Zhou will certainly want to take care of his descendants.
While everyone was chatting:
Clang! Clang!
The clear, crisp sound of bells echoed throughout the entire World Oversight Hall.
this
The many powerful figures looked at each other, some with surprise and uncertainty.
What's going on?
How could the Liyuan Bell have been rung?
Yes, could it be that one of the deputy hall masters suddenly passed away due to old age?
Within the Taicang Heavenly Capital, each important power institution is equipped with the Liyuan Bell. When this bell rings, it signifies the death of a high-ranking official.
What puzzled them was:
Although some of the seven or eight deputy hall masters of the World Oversight Hall are nearing the end of their Lifespan and are very old, they still have at least several decades Lifespan.
As for the World Oversight Hall, he was in his prime, a once-renowned genius of the Divine Kingdom, and still had Lifespan ahead of him.
Just then:
The many powerful figures present simultaneously received a message, and their expressions changed drastically, revealing disbelief.
Is this real?
A powerful being exclaimed in shock:
Brother Zhou's soul lamp suddenly went out? Has he already perished?!
