"Young Master, this is?"
Although Xiong Quan could vaguely guess what it was, he could not help but ask for confirmation.
"This is a grade eight Spirit Cleansing Pill, and it's the same as the grade nine Spirit Cleansing Pill from before. Consume it three times … After three months, your cultivation will recover by another third, and you ought to be able to recover to the Void Prying Stage."
Duan Lingtian said with a smile.
Xiong Quan's breathing became hurried when he heard this. His cultivation could finally recover to the Void Prying Stage!
These days, he had been very sullen …
He was originally an existence at the sixth level of the Void Prying Stage, yet because of the Origin Restriction Gu, his cultivation had suffered an extremely great restriction.
If he was able to recover to the Void Prying Stage, then even if he was only at the first level of the Void Prying Stage, it would far surpass his current state!
After all, he had many formidable abilities that could only be executed by relying on the strength of the Void Prying Stage.
"Also, this is your antidote for the past six months."
Subsequently, Duan Ling Tian spent half an hour in front of Xiong Quan to refine a simple and unadorned medicinal pill before he passed it to Xiong Quan.
Back then, when he gave Xiong Quan the Grade 9 Spirit Cleansing Pill, he mixed it with a special poison. That kind of poison was something that even the Spirit Cleansing Pill couldn't do anything about.
Every six months, Xiong Quan had to take the antidote.
Otherwise, he would definitely die!
This was also his method of controlling Xiong Quan.
"Thank you, young master."
Xiong Quan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly took it and swallowed it.
After sending Xiong Quan away, Duan Lingtian went to the backyard.
Only now did he notice that the two little girls had smoothly broken through to the Origin Core Stage.
After accompanying the two girls for a while, Duan Lingtian returned to his room.
Duan Lingtian took out another drop of Monkey King Wine and drank it. Then, he began to cultivate.
This time, Duan Lingtian discovered that the medicinal effects of the Monkey King Wine had weakened by half compared to the last time …
He began to circulate the Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique's Flood Python Transformation.
In the end, Duan Lingtian barely broke through to the second level of the Origin Core Stage.
"Looks like the Monkey King Wine is the same as the Monkey Wine. The effect is better the first time, and the effect will be reduced by half every time after that … The second time is half the effect of the first time, the third time is half the effect of the second time … and so on. In the end, the effect is equivalent to nothing. "
Duan Lingtian thought in his heart. He also realized that unless he stepped into the Half-step Void Stage in the future and used the Monkey King Wine to break through.
Otherwise, no matter how much Monkey King Wine he drank, it would be a waste.
However, now that his cultivation had broken through to the second level of the Origin Core Stage, it allowed Duan Lingtian to possess the strength of 41 ancient mammoths.
Compared to an ordinary second level Origin Core Stage martial artist, he possessed the strength of 11 ancient mammoths more!
Compared to an ordinary third level Origin Core Stage martial artist, he possessed the strength of an extra ancient mammoth!
"That Xue Yun is a Specter Guard …"
Duan Lingtian took out Xue Yun's storage ring and used a drop of blood to bind it to him. He glanced inside and his eyes narrowed. "There's actually only a little over a million taels of silver … this Xue Yun, he's doing too badly, right? In any case, he's still an existence at the Half-step Void Stage. "
Duan Lingtian had a look of disdain on his face as he spoke.
At the entrance of the Fifth Prince's mansion.
"Li 'er, when I have the time, I will go to Pingyang County to visit you."
The Fifth Prince looked at Tong Li and lightly smiled as he spoke.
"Cousin …"
Tong Li's eyes were hazy with tears, and her face contained slight unwillingness. "Could it be that we're really unable to do anything to that Duan Lingtian?"
After she found out about Duan Lingtian's current strength, Tong Li's heart was filled with unwillingness and resentment.
"Li 'er, don't worry. Once I ascend the throne, I'll surely capture that Duan Lingtian and send him before you, allowing you to deal with him as you please. "
The Fifth Prince made a promise.
Tong Li's expression eased up slightly when she heard this, and she fiercely nodded as her gaze was vicious. "Good. At that time, I'll slice off his flesh piece by piece and watch him bleed to the last drop of blood … "
Subsequently, Tong Li brought along the old woman beside her and left the Fifth Prince's mansion.
They returned to Pingyang County.
Only when Tong Li's carriage vanished before his eyes did the Fifth Prince bring along the white-browed old man and turn around to return to the mansion.
"Li 'er, don't worry. That old fellow won't be able to live for long … "
On the way back, the Fifth Prince muttered to himself.
Ever since he killed Xue Yun, Duan Lingtian's life had gradually calmed down.
The Third Prince and Fifth Prince seemed to have vanished from his world as well.
The Prime Minister, Gu You Ting, seemed to have gone completely silent as well.
Now, besides occasionally going to Paladin Academy, he would usually stay at home to accompany the two little girls and accompany his mother, Li Rou.
Occasionally, he would go to the Embroidered Uniform Guards' lodgings to investigate who actually poisoned the Emperor.
Now, as time passed, more and more clues appeared.
Duan Lingtian believed that it wouldn't be long before he would be able to find out the truth and find the culprit.
Meanwhile, Duan Lingtian had turned 19 and stepped into the ranks of 'youths,' and the childishness on his face had completely faded away.
He had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, extraordinarily handsome and elegant.
In the blink of an eye, three months passed.
Within a spacious room.
Whoosh!
A violet clothed youth abruptly opened his eyes, and above him, 51 ancient mammoth silhouettes condensed into form …
"I've finally broken through! Luckily, the Monkey Wine doesn't conflict with the Monkey King Wine. "
Duan Lingtian's face revealed a smile.
Ever since he drank the Monkey King Wine for the second time and noticed that the effects weren't great, he didn't waste the Monkey King Wine and instead drank the Monkey Wine.
In the end, he noticed that the medicinal strength of the Monkey Wine didn't weaken because he drank the Monkey King Wine.
Relying on the medicinal strength of the Monkey Wine and the assistance of the Origin Strengthening Pill, he smoothly broke through to the third level of the Origin Core Stage after three months.
The Origin Strengthening Pill was the upgraded version of the Origin Increasing Pill, and was also a medicinal pill used by Origin Core martial artists to cultivate. It was able to increase the cultivation speed of an Origin Core martial artist.
During these three months, Duan Lingtian had refined quite a few Origin Strengthening Pills with extremely high purity, and they were far from what the Origin Strengthening Pills sold outside could compare to.
The two little girls at home, Kerr and Li Fei, successively stepped into the second level of the Origin Core Stage as well after consuming the second drop of Monkey King Wine …
In the entire younger generation of the Crimson Sky Kingdom, only Duan Lingtian was able to steadily surpass their cultivations.
Of course, only Duan Lingtian knew of all this.
Outsiders were completely unaware.
Otherwise, who knew what sort of commotion it would cause.
After breaking through, Duan Lingtian, who was in an extremely good mood, came to Paladin Academy to have a meal with Xiao Yu, Xiao Xun, and Tian Hu.
Presently, Xiao Yu's group of three had already gotten used to Duan Lingtian's behavior of skipping class.
Presently, Duan Lingtian didn't make any difference whether he skipped class or not. To a certain extent, his current status in the Crimson Sky Kingdom could already be considered to be second only to one person and above everyone else.
Presently, in the Imperial City, perhaps some people didn't know who the Prime Minister was, but practically no one didn't know who the Embroidered Uniform Guard's Commander was.
The Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Duan Lingtian, was the spokesperson of the Crimson Sky Kingdom's Emperor, and in the eyes of the current Emperor, his status even surpassed the Prime Minister, Gu You Ting.
"Right, calculating the time, the new batch of students should have entered the academy, right? We should be considered to be year 2 students now, right? "
Duan Lingtian asked.
"Duan Lingtian, you're really slow. The new students entered the academy two days ago, and we've already advanced to year 2."
Tian Hu shook his head and smiled. Even if Duan Lingtian was now the Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, he still wasn't unfamiliar with him.
The friendship between him and Duan Lingtian wouldn't change because of the change in status of one of them.
"Duan Lingtian, do you have any plans?"
Xiao Xun looked at Duan Lingtian as he asked.
As far as he was concerned, Duan Lingtian was only 19 years old and had already obtained such accomplishments in the Crimson Sky Kingdom. In the Crimson Sky Kingdom, unless he wanted to rebel and seize the throne, it would be extremely difficult for him to stand higher.
In the Crimson Sky Kingdom, he practically stood at the peak.
Duan Lingtian lightly smiled. "Of course I have plans. However, everything has to wait until I finish some unfinished business. After I finish, maybe I'll leave the Crimson Sky Kingdom and head to the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom. "
According to what Duan Lingtian found out from Xiong Quan, some of the sects in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom were located in places with beautiful mountains and limpid waters. The Origin Energy there was abundant, and it was greatly beneficial to cultivation.
Compared to cultivating in an ordinary place, the speed was much faster.
Some places even had a cultivation speed that was twice as fast as ordinary places.
He could imagine that if he was able to cultivate in those places, coupled with the high purity Origin Strengthening Pill in his possession, his cultivation would surely advance by leaps and bounds …
So, he already planned to enter one of the top sects in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, only for the sake of the superb cultivation grounds within.
However, no matter if it was the Paladin Academy he was currently in, or the top sect of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom he wanted to enter in the future, they were all only a springboard for him.
His ambition wasn't in the Crimson Sky Kingdom, nor was it in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom!
"Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom …."
After hearing what Duan Lingtian said, Xiao Yu, Xiao Xun, and Tian Hu all had expressions of yearning.
After finishing his meal with the three of them, Duan Lingtian left Paladin Academy and brought Xiong Quan along to the Embroidered Uniform Guard's residence.
Presently, Xiong Quan's cultivation had recovered to the Void Prying Stage and had become a great help to him.
"Commander, we've found it!"
As soon as he entered, Duan Lingtian saw Zhang Qian and Zhao Gang greet him.
"You've found it?"
Duan Lingtian's gaze shone. "Who bought those medicinal materials?"
Zhang Qian took a few steps forward and closed the courtyard house's door before returning to Duan Lingtian's side and saying in a low voice, "Commander, it's someone from the Fifth Prince's estate."
"Fifth Prince's estate?"
Duan Lingtian's eyes squinted. "Are you sure? This isn't a joke. "
As the saying goes, even a vicious tiger wouldn't eat its cubs. This vicious tiger ought to not eat its father, right?
"Commander, we've caught the person that bought the medicinal materials and confirmed it …. Those medicinal materials were bought by the Fifth Prince's personal manager, White Brows."
Zhao Gang added.
"Looks like this matter is related to the Fifth Prince …. I want to make a trip to the Imperial Palace!"
Duan Lingtian nodded, and his heart slightly trembled.
The Fifth Prince is really ruthless and merciless, to even be so ruthless to his own father ….
Duan Lingtian brought Xiong Quan along as he hastily entered the Imperial Palace to see the Emperor.
"Commander Duan, for you to come in such a hurry, do you have any leads?"
The Emperor guessed the reason Duan Lingtian had come.
"Your Majesty, I really don't know how to start this matter …."
Duan Lingtian had a bitter smile on his face.
Could it be that he should directly tell the Emperor that his son wanted to kill him?
"Speak."
The Emperor's gaze was calm as he slowly spoke.
