"You're still young, so you don't understand the importance of fate. If a person really has great fate, just like you and Ye Qingtian, he won't have to worry about death no matter how great the danger is. This time, you two people with great fate encountered each other. You won slightly, but Ye Qingtian also escaped with the help of a fairy weapon. Moreover, this time he escaped into the hollow. Maybe he will have some adventures and opportunities, and his strength will be enhanced again to make up for the loss of the Sky-measuring Star Ruler, a Pure Yang Celestial Device!" At this point, Green Spirit paused and looked at Zhou Bao with a complicated expression. "So, in this world, the most troublesome thing is to meet people with strong fate like you, especially when your fate is at its peak. Generally, you will end badly, but —!"
Speaking of this, Green Spirit paused and glanced at Zhou Bao. "Fate is something that cannot be seen or touched. No one knows when it will come or go. So, even if your fate is strong now, don't be too arrogant, lest you make too many enemies in the future. If you lose your fate, you'll be in big trouble!"
"I know what you mean. You want me to cherish my fortune, right?" Zhou Bao smiled and said, "But you also know that although the things that happened these days were big, I didn't start any of them. It's not that I have to do these things, but that things have forced me to do them step by step!"
"I understand that. I just want to remind you that this time, I need to use the star force in your Sky-measuring Star Ruler to comprehend the Great Way of Stars and condense my Dharma Body. So, I won't bother you for a while. I'm afraid that you'll get carried away and use up all your fate when I'm not here!"
"No, I know what I'm doing!" Zhou Bao smiled and said, "Don't worry about condensing your Dharma Body. I wish you success soon!"
"Then I'll count on your blessings!" Green Spirit chuckled and went into Zhou Bao's Space of Segmented Realms.
"This long-winded guy finally left!"
Green Spirit's departure made Zhou Bao twitch his mouth slightly. Of course, he would not believe in fate, which was something that could not be seen or touched. He only believed in strength. If there was an opportunity to improve his strength, he would not miss it.
This time, the battle with Ye Qingtian was very difficult. In the end, he was almost injured by a fairy weapon, which showed that his strength was not enough to sweep away everything. Ye Qingtian was just like him. His combat capability was far beyond Level Nine, but he had not reached the Mysterious Realm. His Star River Essential Gang and the star force that filled the sky could not be compared with the Real Essence. It was just like Zhou Bao's original Internal Qi, which was close to the Real Essence in quality.
But now, after absorbing the power of Yan Yunfei's Sacred Roots through dual cultivation, he could clearly feel the wonderful power contained in the Sacred Roots, which Green Spirit called Divine Qi.
Immortal Qi!
This was a unique kind of energy in the body of a woman with a Celestial Root. However, they couldn't use it themselves and could only be absorbed by others through a certain method. This method was called Dual Cultivation.
To put it bluntly, a woman with a Celestial Root was equivalent to the container of this Divine Qi.
As for why this happened, no one could explain it clearly. Even those powerful necromancers in antiquity times could not figure it out.
The Celestial Root only appeared in the body of a woman and could only be absorbed through the Dual Cultivation method. Therefore, even in antiquity times, a woman with a Celestial Root was the most sought after candidate for Dual Cultivation. In fact, in antiquity times, there was a special way to find and identify this kind of woman. All such women were gathered into the harem by the emperors. It was impossible for ordinary practitioners to have a Dual Cultivation partner with them. If Yan Yunfei had been born in antiquity times, she would naturally be a candidate for those emperors' concubines. How could Zhou Bao take advantage of her?
What was the Divine Qi?
Green Spirit's explanation was very vague. He just said that the full name of the Divine Qi was Primordial Immortal Qi. It was a powerful pneuma that could only be found at the beginning of the Primordial Time. As for how powerful it was, he did not know. However, all fairy weapons contained Divine Qi. Whether it was a Taihao Fairy Weapon, a Heavenly Fairy Weapon, or even a legendary Supreme Fairy Weapon, they needed to be enlightened by the Divine Qi to become a fairy weapon.
For example, the Sky-measuring Star Ruler that Zhou Bao obtained this time had been purified in the Constellation Sea for so many years. Its power was not inferior to that of an ordinary Taihao Fairy Weapon. However, it was still a Pure Yang Celestial Device because it lacked the enlightenment of the Divine Qi. If the Sky-measuring Star Ruler was enlightened by the Divine Qi, it would immediately become a Taihao Fairy Weapon.
It was a pity that Zhou Bao only had a wife who had a Fairy Root. The Divine Qi that he obtained through double cultivation was enough for himself. How could he use it on a Pure Yang Celestial Device?
The Divine Qi could enlighten a Pure Yang Celestial Device and turn it into a fairy weapon. It was also very useful for the human body. However, it did not mean that one would be invincible after absorbing the Divine Qi. It could infinitely increase the intelligence of Internal Qi.
The intelligence of Zhou Bao's Internal Qi was very high. However, he never thought that it was because he had a good aptitude. It was because he had drunk the water in Jin Yan's cup. It was because his Internal Qi originally had a strong intelligence that he could easily evolve two of the Nine Forms of the Real Dragon when he practiced the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique. In the final analysis, it was because of the water in Jin Yan's cup, not because he really had a good aptitude.
However, the Divine Qi could do much better than the water in Jin Yan's cup. It could directly evolve Internal Qi into Dharma power!
What was Dharma power?
After reaching the Mysterious Realm, the Internal Qi would be transformed into the Real Essence. The difference between the Internal Qi and the Real Essence lay in the quality and the density of the energy. This was a qualitative change. The Real Essence Seed contained in the Internal Qi, and then the Real Essence Seed evolved into the Real Essence. This was a process from quantitative change to qualitative change. After the Internal Qi was transformed into the Real Essence, after a series of qualitative changes, the Real Essence Seed would have certain characteristics of Dharma power in the process of containing it.
The most important characteristic of Real Essence was that it had some characteristics of Dharma power. This was also the reason why people who had reached the Mysterious Realm were called Individual Immortals. Dharma power was the essence of immortals. Only those who had Dharma power could be called immortals.
However, an Individual Immortal was just an Individual Immortal. Reaching the Mysterious Realm was just breaking through the Three Small Realms and was still in the Three Big Realms. The real immortals were out of the Three Realms and not in the Five Elements. Therefore, only those who broke through the Mysterious Realm and were purified by the Thunder Tribulation could be called Immortals, Genuine Immortals!
Between heaven and earth, only the thunderbolts of the Ninth Heaven contained a wisp of Divine Qi. This was also why people who reached the peak of the Marrow-cleansing Realm had to undergo the Thunder Tribulation. They used thunderbolts to purify their bodies and Real Essence, and tried to be contaminated with the Divine Qi in the thunderbolts. However, the amount of Divine Qi was not large. Generally speaking, the Divine Qi in the Heavenly Thunder could only be used to enlighten. After the enlightenment, the Real Essence needed to be nourished slowly to achieve the effect of transforming the Real Essence into Dharma power. This process often took decades or even hundreds of years.
Besides the Ninth Heaven Thunder, the other place to obtain Divine Qi was the Sacred Roots.
It was the Sacred Roots that Yan Yunfei had.
By this time, Zhou Bao had somewhat understood the anger of the Third Prince of the Li Dynasty. If it were him, he would definitely be very angry.
The spy of the Li Dynasty in the Jin was the Third Prince's man. He accidentally found that Yan Yunfei had the Sacred Roots, so he secretly reported it to the Third Prince. Of course, the Third Prince would not spread such a thing, so he had been planning to marry Yan Yunfei. After many years of planning, this matter even had some progress. He was sure that he could marry Yan Yunfei without any suspicion. In fact, he was only one step away from the formal proposal. Unexpectedly, he was stuck here and Zhou Bao intercepted him!
Moreover, it was a swift and decisive move that did not give him any time or opportunity to counterattack. By the time he wanted to counterattack, the rice was already cooked. How could he not be angry?
In this world where power was respected, Zhou Bao not only robbed him of the hope of having Dharma power, but also took away the wife he had originally planned to marry. It seemed that the Third Prince of the Li Dynasty, who had never met Zhou Bao, had already hated Zhou Bao to the extreme.
"Hate me all you want. Anyway, I've already taken advantage of you. Hating me will only make you lose your sense of propriety." Zhou Bao thought to himself.
The amount of Divine Qi absorbed from the Sacred Roots was comparable to that of a Genuine Immortal who had gone through nine Thunder Tribulations. However, if you said that you could become a Nine-tribulation True Immortal or even reach the Human Immortal Karma Rank through double cultivation, it was pure bullshit.
How could there be so many good things in the world?
The Divine Qi itself was a special kind of pneuma. It did not have great power and did not have high requirements for bearing capacity. Even an ordinary person's tendons and meridians could bear this mysterious pneuma. However, once the Divine Qi came into contact with the Internal Qi or the Real Essence, it could nourish the Internal Qi and the Real Essence and turn them into Dharma power. To put it bluntly, the Divine Qi was actually nutrition and a great tonic.
Once the Real Essence and the Internal Qi turned into Dharma power, the requirements for the strength of the body would be immediately different. Zhou Bao's current body strength was very difficult to bear the Real Essence, let alone the Dharma power, which was a level higher than the Real Essence.
Therefore, what Zhou Bao could do was to absorb the Divine Qi from Yan Yunfei's Sacred Roots into his body and then store it, slowly nourishing his Internal Qi instead of merging it with his Internal Qi at once. If that happened, Zhou Bao would definitely explode into a mass of flesh and blood in the shortest time.
However, even if he only used a little Divine Qi to nourish his Internal Qi, the effect was still very obvious.
His Internal Qi had almost completely transformed into the mysterious Demonic Fire of the Primitive Dragon Chimera. Now, after being nourished by the Divine Qi, it immediately changed from an arrogant flame to a smoky and jade-like state. It was no longer arrogant and domineering as before. Instead, it was like a blazing sun descending to the world. It was less worldly and more mysterious.
Not only did the form change, but the third form of his Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique, the two forms of the Nine Forms of the Real Dragon, also disappeared. Not only did the two forms of the Real Dragon were devoured, but the forms of the nine Fire Dragons were also devoured. What appeared in his Internal Qi was the shadow of the Primitive Dragon Chimera. This Primitive Dragon Chimera was very similar to the one Zhou Bao had seen. However, compared with the one he had seen before, its scales were denser and it looked more ferocious. In its ferocity, there was a vague Fierce Qi from primitive times.
Yes, Fierce Qi!
This was a kind of Qi Power that could not be expressed in words. It was a monstrous Fierce Qi.
Based on this monstrous Fierce Qi, Zhou Bao was sure that when facing a master below Level Seven, there was no need for him to do anything. This powerful Fierce Qi alone was enough to frighten him and make him retreat.
"The Nine Forms of the Real Dragon is gone, but now my Internal Qi can be controlled like an arm. I can change into the form I want!" Zhou Bao was thinking about the gains and losses in his mind. With a slight movement of his mind, a dozen black fireballs appeared in front of him and flew forward with a whooshing sound. Without any sound, they melted the wall in front of him into a pile of molten lava. Then, the black Internal Qi formed a long black whip, which was extremely flexible as if it had a life of its own. As it waved, it cut the wall behind Zhou Bao into pieces without any sound. The place where it was cut had been completely melted by the high temperature.
"The functions of two forms of the Nine Forms of the Real Dragon have been absorbed by the Dragon Chimera. It's a pity that I can't figure out more forms of the Real Dragon. Otherwise, if the Dragon Chimera swallowed them, wouldn't its strength increase greatly?" Zhou Bao thought to himself. Looking at the indistinct phantom of the Dragon Chimera in his Internal Qi, a myriad of thoughts ran through his mind.
As for his Gang Qi, the Nine Dragons Heavenly Kylin Gang, it also changed along with the change of his Internal Qi. Its color completely changed from the original golden to black. The nine black dragons in the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Shield that was materialized by the Gang Qi had disappeared and were replaced by nine wisps of black smoke. These nine wisps of black smoke formed a translucent black shield. Its power was more than ten times stronger than that of the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Shield.
It could be said that after the initial nourishment of the Divine Qi, Zhou Bao's strength had begun to step into a new level. He was no longer inferior to an Individual Immortal in the Mysterious Realm.
His Internal Qi was no longer an ordinary Internal Qi. Its quality was already above the ordinary Real Essence. It could not be called the Real Essence, let alone the Dharma power. However, it had many characteristics of the Dharma power, so it could only be called the pseudo Dharma power.
His body had also been forcibly improved by the Divine Qi. It was no less than that of an ordinary expert in the Mysterious Realm. However, Zhou Bao knew that no matter how strong his Internal Qi was after being transformed into the pseudo Dharma power by the Divine Qi, it had not reached the level of the Real Essence.
Once his Internal Qi was successfully transformed into the Real Essence and the Real Essence Source evolved completely, his strength would inevitably soar. It could be said that once he entered the Mysterious Realm, his strength would immediately reach the peak of the Marrow-cleansing Realm and even have the strength to pass the Thunder Tribulation to become a Genuine Immortal.
Because the practice process of the practitioners in the Mysterious Realm was to temper their Real Essence, sense the changes of the pneuma between heaven and earth, understand the characteristics of the Dharma power of their Real Essence, and slowly transform it into Dharma power. However, Zhou Bao had the transformation of the Divine Qi. He did not need to patiently cultivate the Real Essence. He could directly transform his Real Essence into Dharma power. However, the premise was that his body must be strong enough.
In other words, the most important thing for Zhou Bao in the future was to enhance his physical strength step by step and polish his body so that it could adapt to his soaring Real Essence and Dharma power in the future. This was not an easy task. "It seems that I still have to suppress my cultivation and spend more time looking for those strange medicinal herbs to refine the Pulse Setting Pill, the Blood Changing Pill, and the Marrow-Cleansing Pill. However, the medicinal herbs for these elixirs are certainly not available in the present world.
"It seems that I still have to suppress my cultivation and spend more time looking for those strange herbs to refine the Pulse Setting Pill, the Blood Exchanging Pill, and the Marrow-Cleansing Pill. However, the herbs needed to refine these elixirs are definitely not available in the present world. The Azure Secret Area is a good choice, but I have carefully checked it last time. Although there are some precious herbs at the entrance, there are not many that can match the three elixirs. Even if all of them are collected, I can only refine one furnace of Pulse Setting Pill and half a furnace of Blood Exchanging Pill at most. As for the materials for the Marrow-Cleansing Pill, there are only a few. Although it is just a small island, even if there are other places in the Azure Secret Area, it will take time and a lot of energy to find them. There are so many powerful evil beasts in the Azure Spirit Sea that it is not easy to get through. However, if I really have the opportunity to go to Taiyuan Heaven this time, I should pay attention to it and bring back more herbs. Now that I have two Pure Yang Celestial Devices and a fairy weapon, these external things are not important. The most important thing is the herbs. With the herbs, I can refine the elixirs to strengthen my body and greatly improve my strength!" Thinking of this, Zhou Bao clenched his fists tightly and made up his mind that no matter what, he must find a way to enter Taiyuan Heaven.
After making up his mind, he practiced in the secret chamber for a few more days. When he had nothing to do and was about to take Yan Yunfei out to relax, Jiang Xiao suddenly came to report that Princess Heyang, Yan Yunyan, had come.
Hearing that Yan Yunyan had come, Zhou Bao was slightly surprised. As far as he knew, the relationship between Princess Heyang, Yan Yunyan, and Princess Qingyang, Yan Yunfei, was not very close. In fact, they were not like sisters at all. Yan Yunyan was a troublemaker and had a close relationship with several princes who had the power to fight for the throne. Her own background was also very profound. Otherwise, she would not be accompanied by Shui Hongyan. However, Yan Yunfei was different. As the legitimate daughter of the Empress, her status was much higher than that of Yan Yunyan, who was born of a concubine. Moreover, she was the only daughter of the Empress, who had been taking care of her since she was a child. Her brothers also cared about this little sister very much. No one had ever dared to offend her, nor had they dared to use conspiracies and tricks on her. Therefore, she was much simpler than Yan Yunyan. This was also the reason why Zhou Bao refused to marry Yan Yunyan but had to find Yan Yunfei.
Zhou Bao did not have a good impression of Yan Yunyan, but neither did he have a bad impression of her. He just felt that this woman was very annoying and liked to meddle in other people's business. Just like last time, the dispute between him and Kunlun Mountain could be solved by the two parties themselves. What did this woman, who had nothing to do with him, want to mediate? "Who are you? Do I know you?" "Why do you mediate?"
This was the main reason why Zhou Bao did not like this woman.
However, even though he didn't like her, she still wanted to see her sister. This was a matter of course, and it was also a very reasonable thing. Zhou Bao had no reason to stop her, not to mention that she was also a princess!
"Humph, you come to see your sister. I don't believe that your purpose of coming here is really so simple!" Zhou Bao sneered in his heart. He stood up from the chair with a sneer on his lips.
"Jiang Xiao, ask them to wait in the living room. I'm going to change clothes and go to see her with Madam!"
"Yes, Your Excellency!"
… …
… …
An hour later, Zhou Bao and Yan Yunfei appeared in the living room together. As soon as he stepped into the living room, he frowned slightly.
Because this time, besides Shui Hongyan, there was another person with Yan Yunyan, a eunuch.
This eunuch's spirit was obscure, as if his cultivation was only at Level Four or Five. However, he gave Zhou Bao a sense of extreme danger. In other words, at the first sight of this eunuch, Zhou Bao had a sense of crisis.
Seeing Zhou Bao and Jiang Xiao coming out, Yan Yunyan and the other two also stood up.
"Sister Yunfei, it's really been a long time!" With a smile on her face, Yan Yunyan walked to Yan Yunfei and held Yan Yunfei's hands with a happy look, as if they really had a deep sisterly love.
"Princess Heyang, it's been a long time!" Zhou Bao smiled and said, "You are a noble. You don't come to the temple for no reason. Today, what advice do you have for me?"
"Haha, my good brother-in-law, you're wrong. Isn't it natural for an elder sister to come to see her younger sister? We haven't seen each other for several years. Now that we've come to see each other, do you, as my brother-in-law, still want to stop us? "
Speaking of this, she looked Zhou Bao up and down, with a hint of indecipherable meaning flashing in her eyes.
Today, Zhou Bao's clothes were very simple, just an ordinary blue sleeve.
"I don't have that kind of courage. My wife is mine, and my sister is yours. Of course, you can come to see me whenever you want, but —!"
Before his voice died away, he suddenly felt his eyes began to become hot. At the same time, a huge greedy desire came from his eyes. Zhou Bao was shocked, and all his spiritual strength immediately locked on the old eunuch who came with Yan Yunyan.
"Eh?"
At this time, after locking on the old eunuch with his spiritual strength, Zhou Bao found that there was a faint strange fluctuation in the old eunuch's eyes. Zhou Bao had never felt this kind of fluctuation, but he was familiar with the feeling from his Fiery Eyes. It was very similar to the greedy desire when the Fiery Eyes wanted to devour the power of Zhu Ba's eyes.
"There's something wrong with this guy's eyes!" Zhou Bao's heart tightened, and his eyes became sharp. At the same time, the old eunuch seemed to find something. He looked up at Zhou Bao in horror.
"You, oh —!"
Zhou Bao did not give him any chance to speak. As soon as the word "you" came out, Zhou Bao raised his hand, and an invisible force lifted the eunuch's body.
"Zhou Bao, you —!"
Seeing Zhou Bao suddenly take action, Yan Yunfei, Yan Yunyan, and Shui Hongyan all changed their expressions. Shui Hongyan's figure flashed and flashed in front of the eunuch.
"You'd better not take action. Otherwise, I'll kill you too!" Zhou Bao raised his eyes and glanced at Shui Hongyan with an extremely cold look. An abundant Ferocious Qi broke out.
Although Shui Hongyan was also an expert, she could not help but shiver under Zhou Bao's ferocious Qi Power.
"This man is a spy from the Li Dynasty. It was he who led the assassins from the Li Dynasty. Today, I'll kill him and get rid of a scourge for the Jin Dynasty!" Zhou Bao said coldly. He exerted force in his hand, and with a crack, the eunuch's neck was broken.
… …
… …
"Zhou Bao, you're too presumptuous!"
