From the experience of another Supre Heavenly Demon, Lu Yongnian, no great battle involving Supre Heavenly Demons was found.
He died from a misstep in cultivation.
However, Lu Yongnian was not the Supre Heavenly Demon from thirty thousand years ago.
Thinking about this, he shook his head, his gaze continuing to fall on the Black Box.
This Black Box is quite mysterious, especially its patterns, which vaguely resemble the Divine Language.
But it is not the Divine Language.
It is very likely a pattern derived from the Divine Language.
He sealed with both palms.
In an instant, a sheet of clear light appeared in the Void, suddenly falling like a bowl, covering the Black Box.
The light inside the Black Box flashed, attempting to burst out, but was jolted back as if electrified, retreating swiftly back into the Black Box.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and continued to catalyze the Great Demon Suppressing Seal to refine.
The clear light grew thicker, increasingly bright.
The Black Box seed to slowly sink into the clear lake water.
Sunlight shimred on the water while the Black Box sank deeper.
Sinking straight to the depths, almost invisible.
An hour later, the clear light gradually dimd.
Even as Chu Zhiyuan continued to catalyze the Great Demon Suppressing Seal, he could no longer gather more clear light, instead dispersing it.
Until the clear light completely dissipated, and the Black Box returned to calm.
He flicked his sleeve.
The Black Box imdiately opened, revealing a palm within, as crystalline as jade.
Above the palm, a cluster of seven-colored light swayed, floating uncertainly.
The palm-sized seven-colored light slowly shot towards him, eventually drilling into his glabella.
Chu Zhiyuan imdiately closed his eyes.
A quarter-hour later, when he opened his eyes again, his gaze shot out like a cold sword.
In his glances, a chilling murderous intent seed to annihilate all living things.
Monts later, the sharpness in his eyes gradually receded, returning to normal.
He let out a long breath, revealing a smile.
A mory of a thousand years, so long it seed he might forget who he was.
Fortunately, with the existence of Super Sense and Golden Ghost Flower and Dragon Thought, he was not overwheld by the mories of the Supre Heavenly Demon.
Only influenced by its will, but not disturbed by anything else.
He flicked his fingers.
"Chit!"
"Chit chit chit chit!"
A streak of finger force shot into the air, suddenly splitting into four beams shooting in all directions, its power strengthened.
This Startled Swan Divine Finger is indeed miraculous, the fusion of Heart and Spirit with True Yuan having a touch of the Glazed Blade Scripture’s wonder.
This kind of finger technique, not only powerful but unexpectedly defensive, is truly wondrous.
More importantly, he has mastered the Lao Gong Acupoint, his True Yuan vast and grand, far beyond the True Yuan of ordinary martial artists.
The power of this technique far exceeds that of its original owner, Cui Zhengyang.
He strides forward, returning to the interior of the Da ng Palace.
...
An hour later, he appears at a teahouse not far from the palace.
The setting sun dyes Tianjing City red.
Li Hongzhao, wrapped in a red robe, gracefully appears in front of him, a veil covering her beautiful face, revealing only water-like eyes.
Chu Zhiyuan puts down the tea cup, glancing at her, smiling and gesturing.
The eyes of nearby tea patrons are also drawn to her.
Though her face isn’t visible, her graceful figure and mysterious aura assure them she is a rare beauty.
Li Hongzhao approaches his table and sits elegantly, glancing around.
Her sparkling eyes sweep across, causing an odd sense of unease among the surrounding tea patrons, inexplicably averting their gaze.
Chu Zhiyuan looks up.
His gaze penetrates the teahouse roof, observing the Emperor’s Sword hovering in the Void, its patterns dense and crystal clear.
It’s evident Li Hongzhao has fully earned the Emperor’s Sword’s recognition, allowing her to maximize its power.
No wonder she wishes to ascend.
At this level, she can ascend and leave.
Ascension requires borrowing the Emperor’s Sword’s power, ensuring its master can sustain it during ascension without falling.
Cultivation must reach a certain level, and Li Hongzhao is likely sufficient now.
He fills the already empty tea cup and pushes it over: "So early?"
Li Hongzhao looks around: "Early or late, no big difference, haven’t seen these for a while."
Chu Zhiyuan smiles: "Doesn’t the mundane world feel more intimate?"
Li Hongzhao nods: "Always in the palace, cold and lifeless, nothing like this bustling and interesting place... where shall we go?"
"Let’s go to the Evil Sect’s base," Chu Zhiyuan said, "Let’s see if the Evil Sect will revive."
"Very well." Li Hongzhao said, "But even with the Evil Sect gone, the world is still not at peace."
Through the Court’s channels, she had a more in-depth and detailed understanding of the situation of the Martial Arts in Da ng.
The Evil Sect was gone, yet the fighting in the Martial Arts world continued, hardly any better than before the Evil Sect.
With the Evil Sect gone, there were still evildoers, and in the vast Martial Arts world, there were always disputes and grudges, with constant fighting.
And those with low martial arts skills or who were unskilled often suffered.
Chu Zhiyuan sighed, "This must rely on the Court to restrict the Martial Arts world. Da ng is too lenient with them."
"The resistance is too great." Li Hongzhao shook her head, "I know this too, wanting to constrain the Martial Arts, but the resistance is imnse, and issuing orders cannot be t with re facade."
"If t with facade, then heavy punishnt."
"Even heavy punishnt is useless." Li Hongzhao said, "As an Emperor, I cannot just do whatever I wish."
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Your Da ng Court is too enshed with the Martial Arts world, it’s deeply entangled, hard to reverse."
"It’s been so many years, how could these ties be severed instantly?" Li Hongzhao shook her head, "Besides, there’s no need to sever them."
The deep entanglent has its drawbacks, but it also has advantages.
One can’t just think about the advantages without considering the drawbacks; nothing is that perfect in the world.
Chu Zhiyuan pondered.
"Have you thought of a solution?" Li Hongzhao asked.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Shall I help you sort it out?"
Li Hongzhao chuckled, "Are you so kind-hearted? ...Is it for vying for the people’s hearts and the ascension of the Emperor’s Sword?"
She imdiately understood Chu Zhiyuan’s intention.
The people’s hearts are the source of the Emperor’s Sword’s strength, and with enough people’s support, the Emperor’s Sword easily acknowledges its master, directly aiding in ascension.
Chu Zhiyuan nodded slowly.
It was for the Emperor’s Sword, but more importantly for Faith Power, to enhance Faith Power and thus open the ancestral acupoint.
Li Hongzhao said, "Alright, I’ll have soone send over ssages, and together we’ll clear a batch. You can take the opportunity to gain fa."
As she spoke, she made a gesture.
Not far away, an old eunuch quietly left.
Chu Zhiyuan did not look over.
Even for a simple incognito visit, it requires soone to support and attend to.
It’s hard to go from luxury to frugality; Li Hongzhao was already accustod to having soone serve, unable to suddenly let go.
Moreover, she trusted this old eunuch.
After a while, a young girl in white lightly stepped over, handing over a scroll with both hands, then turned gracefully and left.
Li Hongzhao accepted it and flipped through it, then handed it to Chu Zhiyuan.
Chu Zhiyuan quickly skimd through it, speaking while flipping, "So many scoundrels?"
"I didn’t expect there to be so many either." Li Hongzhao sighed, "Previously, they were hidden by the Evil Sect, many pretending to be of the Evil Sect."
Chu Zhiyuan’s expression was indifferent as he slowly said, "Pretending to be of the Evil Sect, harming the innocent, such cris deserve death."
Li Hongzhao said, "So of these people are shielded by powerful forces, even though they commit nurous evils, the world avoids them, dare not kill them for fear of extermination."
Chu Zhiyuan said calmly, "Then let’s extinguish them this ti."
Li Hongzhao said, "Acting this way is indeed refreshing; sotis being an Emperor is really frustrating."
If these troubles were addressed at the Court level, the solution would be very troubleso, with layers of obstacles and difficulties.
But if addressed at the Martial Arts level, it’s simple, just need strong martial arts skills.
Especially soone like Chu Zhiyuan, who can transcend secular limitations.
"Let’s go." Chu Zhiyuan said, "I can’t wait."
Li Hongzhao said, "Let’s go, first look at the Evil Sect, and clear away so troubles on the way."
The two left the teahouse, weaving through the bustling crowd, quickly leaving the city.
Chu Zhiyuan wrapped his arm around her slim waist, stepped forward, and the next step was already under a mountain peak.
He was familiar with the paths between Tianjing and various Evil Sect locations, instantly thinking of the location at the ntion of a na, stepping across in one stride.
Li Hongzhao looked around in surprise.
She discovered a building looming midway up the mountain where she stood.
"This is the Guiyan Sect."
"That Guiyan Sect Elder Zhou Kangcheng?"
"Let’s kill him first." Chu Zhiyuan said, "Do you feel the Emperor’s Sword?"
Li Hongzhao chuckled, "It’s gone."
Chu Zhiyuan said, "After getting rid of a few, once word spreads, it will naturally co looking."
This way of traveling is fast, but those intending to target Li Hongzhao might not be able to catch up.
Li Hongzhao said, "Doing it this way, we won’t take more than ten days."
If it doesn’t work, it won’t ascend in Tianjing City, thus avoiding those threats causing unrest.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Don’t worry, I’ll ensure nothing goes wrong with your ascension."
Li Hongzhao smiled sweetly, "That’s wonderful."
She trusted Chu Zhiyuan’s assurance.
Chu Zhiyuan also had keen intuition for danger, often taking the initiative to eliminate it.
This ti would be no different.
