Tang Zheng continued to cultivate in seclusion, sitting cross-legged on the cold ground alone. The thick walls blocked all the noise in the capital. The imperial city was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Only the slow breathing of the Five-clawed Golden Dragon could be heard occasionally.
Xiao Bai squatted beside him, looking at him with bright eyes.
Tang Zheng held a crystal stone in his hand. The crystal stone had already lost its luster, and most of the spiritual energy had been absorbed by it.
Tang Zheng felt that there was enough spiritual energy in his meridians. He carefully guided it into the Golden Core.
The Golden Core shone brightly, illuminating his Dantian.
Crack!
Suddenly, with a crisp sound, the Spirit Stone broke into pieces and turned into powder, which flowed out from the gaps between his fingers.
He took a deep breath. The air in the secret room seemed to have been sucked dry by him, and his muscles and bones made crackling sounds.
Boom!
A thunderous sound came from his organs. This was the effect of the resonance between the True Qi and his body. The True Qi surged and involuntarily accelerated in his meridians, like a torrential river.
Tang Zheng watched as the Golden Core expanded from the size of a ping pong ball to the size of a duck egg, flowing with golden light.
Sixth-grade Golden Core!
No!
Seventh-grade Golden Core!
Tang Zheng found that he had broken through two realms in a row. This was not only due to the powerful spiritual energy in the crystal, but also because of this trip to the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
The harvest this time could be said to be very rich. Moreover, Chi You and the Inner Demons would occasionally bicker and unconsciously reveal some information, which benefited him a lot.
Especially a few days ago, the two of them actually sat down and discussed Dao, talking about many things in cultivation and their understanding of cultivation.
These two were super powerhouses, and their understanding of cultivation was naturally not something that ordinary people could have.
After listening to them, Tang Zheng was enlightened, so he was able to raise his cultivation by two levels with the help of the crystal.
A seventh-grade Golden Core was not far from the Yuanying Realm. He was full of confidence and could not help but roar.
He looked at the crystal powder on the ground and couldn't help but feel regretful. This was a good thing. The King of Sweden had only given him one, and the other was given to Tian Chanzi. He had already given it to Tian Chanzi.
He still remembered the scene when Tian Chanzi saw the crystal. He was so surprised that he almost jumped up in joy.
Tian Chanzi's cultivation had reached Level Nine of Yuanying. He was only one step away from the Dacheng Realm. It was time for him to consolidate his cultivation.
With the help of the crystal stones, his cultivation would be as stable as a rock, and there was hope for him to advance to the next level. This was indeed something that he should be happy about.
Tian Chanzi told Tang Zheng that even in the former Cultivation World, this kind of crystal stone was extremely rare. Spirit stones were already considered good treasures for cultivation. Only some heads of famous sects had one or two crystal stones.
It was said that the crystal stones were stones from the outside world. They could only be found by chance and not by searching for them. Spirit stones were not like spirit stones. Spirit stones were born by the world itself.
Once the world's Spiritual Qi was abundant, the earth would be nourished by the Spiritual Qi. Some stones would gather Spiritual Qi, and over time, they would form spirit stones.
However, now that the world's Spiritual Qi was exhausted, there were naturally very few spirit stones. They only found one in Ordinary Balance's grave, but it had already been used up by their cultivation.
However, Tian Chanzi asserted that once the Tree of Life completely transformed the world's Spiritual Qi, it would once again produce spirit stones in the future.
After Tian Chanzi received the spirit stones, he eagerly went to guide Anne for a long time, which could be considered as returning the kindness of giving the crystal stones.
This behavior made Tang Zheng despise him for a long time. He said that he was greedy for money. Without the crystal stones, he almost forgot about his apprentice.
The Five Clawed Golden Dragon stared at Tang Zheng with wide eyes and said happily: "You have to work hard on your cultivation. Don't be distracted by other things. It won't be long before you can save me."
Tang Zheng smiled faintly: "Okay."
"Ai, that Empyrean Fairy is too arrogant. When I regain my freedom in the future, let's see how she can be arrogant in front of me." The Five Clawed Golden Dragon was still brooding over the Empyrean Fairy's refusal to save him. When he thought about it, his anger was still not small.
Tang Zheng asked curiously: "You said that you are imprisoned in this array and your strength is greatly reduced. When you regain your freedom, how powerful will you be?"
The Five Clawed Golden Dragon smiled mysteriously: "You will naturally know when the time comes."
"What are your plans after regaining your freedom?" Tang Zheng had never asked this question before. Now that the Five Clawed Golden Dragon's freedom was getting closer and closer, he had no choice but to ask.
The Five Clawed Golden Dragon was silent for a while and said: "The people who imprisoned me are already dead. Even the dynasty has been destroyed. It is already impossible to find the culprit. Humph, but after imprisoning me for so many years, I will not give up just like that."
The Five Clawed Golden Dragon's anger was not small. Tang Zheng was nervous and said: "Could it be that you want to find someone to take revenge?"
"Of course!"
"But aren't those people already dead?"
"But the humans are still here."
"Could it be that you want to deal with the humans?" Tang Zheng asked cautiously.
The Five Clawed Golden Dragon looked at Tang Zheng: "You want to stop me?"
"I am also a human."
"Haha, you are a Celestial. Moreover, you have also cultivated the Dragon God Arts. You are completely different from a human." The Five Clawed Golden Dragon retorted.
"No matter what you think, I always think of myself as a human. Although I promised to let you go, but if you really insist on going against innocent humans, then I will not sit idly by." Tang Zheng's tone was firm. He did not care at all about the Five Clawed Golden Dragon's raging eyes.
The Five Clawed Golden Dragon's nostrils exhaled a hot breath.
Tang Zheng was not afraid. He raised his head and stared at the Five Clawed Golden Dragon: "Killing innocent people is not the style of your dragon race. If you want to deal with the culprit who imprisoned you, then I will not stop you. But if you want to deal with other innocent people, then I will not sit idly by. If you really do not change your mind, then perhaps you can only stay in this dark place forever. "
"Impudent! You dare to threaten me? "The Five Clawed Golden Dragon was furious. He opened his mouth and a gust of wind almost blew Tang Zheng down.
"I am not threatening you. I am just warning you in advance." Tang Zheng said calmly.
Seeing Tang Zheng's firm attitude, the Five Clawed Golden Dragon angrily turned his head and did not talk to him anymore.
Tang Zheng could not see through his thoughts. Since he did not agree with him, he did not continue to talk. In any case, he could not go out for the time being.
"Xiao Bai, let's go." Tang Zheng called Xiao Bai and left the Imperial City.
The Five Clawed Golden Dragon turned his head after a long time. He looked at the empty corridor and muttered to himself: "He is really stubborn. But now my freedom is in his hands. If I don't agree, he will not let me go."
He was not a stupid dragon. He could still judge the situation.
"However, he dares to threaten me. He really has guts … Well, Celestials have always had guts."
After Tang Zheng left the Imperial City, the Inner Demons exclaimed loudly.
"You actually have a connection with a dragon. Haha, this is really interesting. Chi You, you were also a Celestial in the past, but you did not catch a dragon, right?"
Chi You coldly snorted: "Dragons are creatures from the outer space. Do you think it is so easy to catch them?"
"You see, didn't he just imprison a dragon?" The Inner Demons retorted.
"I did not imprison it." Tang Zheng defended himself.
"But now, his freedom is in your hands, which is equivalent to you imprisoning him. Hehe, to imprison a dragon while I'm still alive, how interesting. If I can take him under my wing and use him for my own purposes, I'll definitely be able to take him under my wing. Chi You, this dragon is much more powerful than those monsters under your command. "The Inner Demons did not let go of the opportunity to provoke Chi You.
Chi You simply chose to remain silent.
When Tang Zheng heard the words' creatures from the outer space ', he became even more interested in the dragon race. In the past, there was no one to answer his questions. Now that there was Chi You and the Inner Demons, he could not miss this opportunity to ask for guidance.
"Chi You, you said that the dragon race is creatures from the outer space. Which world do they come from?" Tang Zheng curiously asked.
"The dragon race has a long history. It is said that not long after our world was created, the dragon race entered our world from another world. Since then, the dragon race has appeared from time to time. Because the dragon race is very mysterious and powerful, the people of this world worship the dragon race. Thus, the dragon race is regarded as a spiritual totem. As for which world the dragon race came from, I do not know. "
Tang Zheng suddenly understood. So that was how the dragon race came to be. However, even Chi You did not know the origin of the dragon race. That could only mean that the dragon race was much more mysterious and powerful than Tang Zheng thought.
Perhaps only the dragon race themselves could answer this question.
Suddenly, a bright light flashed in his heart. He cultivated the Dragon God Secret Art and even cultivated the Dragon Seal. Would he know this secret in the future?
He could not help but look forward to it. However, there was no progress in the Dragon God Secret Art for the time being. He also did not have a way to test the possibility of this idea.
"Young man, why do you care about this? If you take this dragon under your command, it will certainly be very beneficial to you in the future." The Inner Demons enticed.
"Oh, if I really subdue it, then my strength will be even stronger. Heh, this won't do you any good, right?" Tang Zheng said meaningfully.
The Inner Demons was suddenly startled. They seemed to realize that Tang Zheng's words were reasonable. For a moment, they were speechless. After a long time, they resentfully said: "This shows that I really care about you. I am not like Chi You, feigning civility and secretly spying on you."
"Inner Demons, you are talking nonsense again."
"How am I talking nonsense? I am clearly speaking the truth …."
The two of them quarreled again. Tang Zheng gradually got used to this kind of thing. He simply ignored it and returned home.
At dawn, the group of people ate breakfast and went to work or school.
Fang Shishi spent every day in the library because the final exams were approaching. As the transfer to Yenching University for the first semester, she wanted to hand in a perfect answer sheet.
Lan Yu also dragged Wu to buy groceries early in the morning. During this period of time, she changed every day to make delicious food for Tang Zheng. The others also followed along to enjoy the good food.
The Mysterious Nine Heavens Maiden also brought Nannan to do morning exercises, saying that she was in contact with nature. This was one of Nannan's favorite activities, but the only regret was that Brother Tang Zheng could not come along.
When the Empyrean Fairy guided Nanna in cultivation, no one was allowed to disturb them. Even Tang Zheng did not have the qualifications, so he did not join in the fun.
In the end, he was left alone at home. Looking at the empty house, he could not help but shake his head and smile bitterly. The others envied him for living in a country of women. In fact, because there were too many people, he could not get close to them.
