"You need a Forbidden Technique that can severely injure Peak Sovereign Emperors. Naturally, the inheritance hall has it. However, have you really thought it through?"
The Senior Dragon Spirit asked as it looked at Xiao Chen.
"I already thought about it before coming. Senior Dragon Spirit, please grant me my wish."
"Alright."
The Dragon Spirit handed a jade strip to Xiao Chen. After some thought, it said, "The situation is special, so I'll make an exception this time. Take this jade strip properly."
Xiao Chen received the jade strip and placed it on his forehead. Ancient divine characters immediately appeared in his mind.
Xiao Chen did not recognize the divine characters. However, when they appeared in his mind, he naturally understood their meaning.
"Nine Heavens God Demon Body Unsealing Technique!"
Xiao Chen looked at the Senior Dragon Spirit in confusion. Then, he said, "This does not seem to be a Forbidden Technique unique to the Dragon Race."
"This is a Forbidden Technique that has existed since the Great Desolate Eon. Now, in the Martial Epoch, only the Dragon Race grasps it, probably the only one. The stronger the bloodline, the stronger the might of this Forbidden Technique. If you execute it with your Blue Dragon bloodline, you can trace it back to its origin, allowing an ancient Blue Dragon to undergo a Blood Rebirth. If you are strong enough, it might even be possible to transform into a Great Desolate Eon Ancestor Dragon. "
This revelation startled Xiao Chen. He asked, "What's the price?"
"Once executed, one's Divine Energy and Soul Energy will burn, unstoppable until they burn out. If one is not careful, one will exhaust their Qi and blood and die. One needs extremely strong willpower to control it. "
The Dragon Spirit sighed softly, "Hence, I hesitated for a long time before giving it to you. No one has cultivated this Forbidden Technique for many years already. The price to pay is a small matter. However, many people do not have strong willpower and cannot endure it. After returning to their ancestral roots, they are unable to reverse it and tire themselves to death.
"Many of the seniors who executed this Nine Heavens God Demon Body Unsealing Technique were prepared to perish together."
"I'll take note."
Xiao Chen showed a grave expression as he realized how terrifying this Nine Heavens God Demon Body Unsealing Technique was.
"This is for you. A Primal Essence Heavenly Replenishing Pill, a Rank 8 Heavenly Pill. After using a forbidden technique, if one didn't have a good supplement, it would leave behind a hidden injury, and one would regret it for the rest of their life. You must remember, if you do not have a Tier 8 Heavenly Pill or above, you must not use this forbidden technique. Otherwise, even if you injure your opponent, you'll still be crippled. "
The dragon spirit said to Xiao Chen with a grave expression, "Now, not counting the juniors of the Kunlun Realm's Dragon's Gate, you are the only one left of the Blue Dragon bloodline. I do not wish for you to die like this."
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't die."
After leaving the land of the blood moon, Xiao Chen returned to the Misty Rain Pavilion and continued his seclusion.
The Nine Heavens God Demon Body Unsealing Technique was much more profound than he had imagined. When he studied it carefully, he found it to be boundlessly profound.
It wasn't just a Forbidden Art. It was that simple.
According to the records, this martial skill wasn't a forbidden technique during the primordial era. As long as he could find the complete remains of a Divine Dragon or an Ancestral Dragon, he would be able to execute this technique without any damage. He could even refine the Ancestral Dragon True Body or the inferior Divine Dragon True Body into his avatar.
He could freely switch between his true body and an Ancestral Dragon clone.
However, the remains of Ancestral Dragons and Divine Dragons were everywhere during the Great Desolate Eon, so they were easy to find. Now, many epochs had passed. However, Ancestral Dragon remains, Divine Dragon remains, and even True Dragon remains were hard to find.
At best, one could find some broken limbs. If one wanted to find complete remains, one would have to target mixed-blood dragons.
"Let's not care about this for now. I'll study it thoroughly first. When necessary, I can protect myself and the people around me."
After making a trip to the Blue Dragon's ancient land, Xiao Chen received a Divine Source Infusion and advanced to 2-Vein Sovereign Emperor. Obtaining the second layer of the Ten Thousand Dragons Art was a significant harvest.
After thinking about it carefully, Xiao Chen was somewhat surprised to discover that the Nine Heavens God Demon Body Unsealing Technique and the Ten Thousand Dragons Art seemed to achieve the same result through different means.
The Ten Thousand Dragons Art had five layers. After advancing each layer, it would eventually evolve into the Ancestor Dragon Art.
The Nine Heavens God Demon Body Unsealing Technique used blood to revert to ancestry. In the end, it also sought to become a Great Desolate Eon Ancestor Dragon.
However, the two were very different. One was a Cultivation Technique, and the other was a Martial Technique. One focused on gradual progress, while the other focused on rapid progress.
The two also had different directions. The Ten Thousand Dragons Art was mainly used to cultivate and temper the body. However, the Nine Heavens God Demon Body Unsealing Technique was mainly used to injure the enemy.
More importantly, the Nine Heavens God Demon Body Unsealing Technique was not created by the Dragon Race. Anyone with a Great Desolate Eon bloodline could also cultivate it.
Perhaps there was some connection between the two.
However, this was not the time for Xiao Chen to consider. Right now, he only wanted to focus on studying this Forbidden Art in case he needed it.
The most important thing now was to cultivate the Ten Thousand Dragons Art's second layer.
He had already delayed the first layer for a long time. Now that he obtained the Cultivation Technique, he naturally had to do his best to make up for it.
Time passed. The outside world was in chaos. The imperial capital Yan City continued its glory and prosperity day and night.
However, time seemed to stop in the courtyard behind the Misty Rain Pavilion.
Xiao Chen practiced his saber during the day, trying to master the final move, Merciless Killing.
At night, he worked on the Ten Thousand Dragons Art's second layer. With the aid of the two Divine Veins, his Ten Thousand Dragons Art improved rapidly.
The Ten Thousand Dragons Picture with the Blue Dragon in the center of Xiao Chen's Divine Energy Sea already completely materialized.
In the blink of an eye, more than thirty days passed.
There were less than ten days left to the First Prince Wang Fei's wedding. The entire imperial capital Yan City started to brim with a festive atmosphere.
The First Prince Wang Fei used all his strength to maximize the influence of this wedding.
In the past few days, feudal lords from various places headed to the imperial capital Yan City.
Naturally, the feudal lords belonging to the First Prince's camp arrived early.
Some of the neutral feudal lords and Noble Clans saw that the First Prince and the Smiling Daughter Pavilion formed an alliance behind this wedding.
These feudal lords started to waver in their stance, wondering if they should stand on the First Prince's side.
Soon after, they rushed to the imperial capital Yan City to congratulate the First Prince.
Wang Fei was the eldest son in the first place. Furthermore, he had the support of the imperial ancestral temple's patriarchs. Now, he also had the support of the Pleasure Quarter Alliance.
Now, he had another trump card in the succession race.
This wedding caused Wang Fei's influence to soar, surpassing that of the Eighth Prince, who had the support of a sect, and the Yan Emperor's favorite Thirteenth Prince.
This did not seem to have any tangible effect. However, Luck was something that was hard to predict.
When one side's Luck increased, the other side's would definitely decrease.
Before the wedding took place, the First Prince already gained the initiative in the succession race.
Xiao Chen did not overthink. He remained in closed-door cultivation by the mirror lake, not bothering about right or wrong. He left everything to Su Ye and Mo Chen.
However, today, the peaceful days were broken by the arrival of one person.
The Heavenly Book Scholar came to seek an audience.
"Right now, the imperial capital Yan City is extraordinarily bustling. Various factions gather here. Feudal lords come every day. It is not peaceful for even a moment. This place of yours is unexpectedly quiet. It really surprises me. "
This is truly surprising, "the Heavenly Book Scholar said with a soft smile as he fanned himself with his folding fan when he saw Xiao Chen.
The Heavenly Book Scholar's expression remained the same, his bones delicate, and his spirit carefree.
Xiao Chen retorted indifferently, "What else? What did you think I would be like?"
A brilliant light flashed in the Heavenly Book Scholar's eyes. He smiled and said, "I thought that you would at least join in the excitement. On the surface, it looks like a wedding. However, behind it is the succession race. As long as one is ambitious, they will be recruiting soldiers and buying horses, making their final preparations. This is because everyone knows that this wedding has already changed the situation of the succession race. After the wedding, the succession race will start immediately. "
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "I've disappointed you. Let's not talk about this for now. One does not come to the temple for no reason. Why are you looking for me? Just tell me directly. "
The Heavenly Book Scholar smiled and said, "I am not the one looking for you. The one who wants to meet you this time is someone else."
"Who?"
"He has been waiting for a long time in the mirror lake. If you are willing, you can come with me."
Xiao Chen knew who was waiting for him. He said softly, "Lead the way."
