His aura was so strong that it was like an arrow leaving the bow. It pierced through the air and blew up the dust on the ground a few meters away.
His eyes shone brightly as a smile appeared on his face.
"Peak of the Ninth Transformation Stage!" Chen Zong said in a low voice.
It could be said that his current cultivation had reached a limit, but he could still continue to improve because the Origin Shattering Force had not reached the sixth stage.
"Peak of the Qi Training Stage …" Chen Zong muttered to himself.
…
"If you have any requests, just tell me. As long as I can do it, I will not refuse." Second Prince Yuwen Yi said sincerely.
"I want the method to break through to the peak of the Qi Training Stage." Chen Zong said directly. Second Prince Yuwen Yi's expression suddenly changed, and then he smiled bitterly.
The second prince, Yuwen Yi, personally came to visit Chen Zong, hoping that Chen Zong could lend him a hand. The trip to the Chillywind Valley was mostly about obtaining something from the Chillywind Valley. This was a competition between the three princes.
"Chen Zong, you are a Kingdom Scholar of the dynasty. If Second Prince needs your help, you should help. How dare you ask for a reward." A genius who came with Second Prince glared at him and scolded him without holding back.
This person was called Wang Ke. Because he was over 24 years old, he was not listed on the Jiao Dragon List. However, his battle power had reached the peak of the four-star level.
Chen Zong only glanced at Wang Ke and ignored him. Instead, he stared at Second Prince Yuwen Yi.
Peak of the Qi Training Stage was very important.
"Wang Ke, you can leave now." The second prince, Yuwen Yi, said. Chen Zong was different from Wang Ke. Wang Ke had pledged allegiance to him a long time ago and was equivalent to being his subordinate. However, Chen Zong was not. His talent and potential were astonishing, but he had not pledged allegiance to him yet.
Wang Ke glared at Chen Zong and had to leave.
"Brother Chen, in the dynasty, there is no detailed method to break through to the peak of the Qi Training Stage. There are only some scattered records." The Second Prince Yuwen Yi said seriously, "Since ancient times, every martial artist who could break through to the Great Perfection stage had their own fortuitous encounters. There is no specific pattern to follow."
Upon hearing Yuwen Yi's words, Chen Zong did not think that the other party was trying to trick him. After all, when he had broken through to the great perfection of the Vitality realm, he had been in a perilous situation. It was either success or death, and it was something that could not be replicated.
Chen Zong thought for a moment and said, "Then, Your Highness, please give me all the records regarding the Peak of Training State."
"Sure." Yuwen Yi answered straightforwardly. Even though it was a secret, it wasn't a top secret.
"When are we leaving?" Chen Zong asked again.
"Three days later, I will send someone to inform you, Brother Chen." Yuwen Yi said as he stood up to leave. "Today, I will have someone send over the records of the great circle of Qi Training to Brother Chen."
"Thank you, Your Highness." Chen Zong cupped his hands.
The Second Prince, Yuwen Yi, was very efficient. In just a few hours, someone had already sent over a handwritten letter.
The handwritten letter looked very old. It was made of animal skin, and it had become somewhat rough due to frequent flipping through. On the cover of the handwritten letter was written, "The great circle of Qi Training State." It made Chen Zong's eyes light up.
After taking a deep breath and calming his excited heart, Chen Zong flipped open the handwritten letter and read it carefully.
"People only think that there are nine transformations in the Qi Training State. Actually, above the nine transformations, there is a tenth transformation, known as the great circle of perfection."
"The great circle of perfection means complete fusion."
… …
"Strength flows through the entire body, reaching the top of the sky, reaching the bottom of the abyss …"
There was not much content in the handwritten letter. It was only a few pages, and there were only about a hundred words in total.
These hundred words took Chen Zong a while to finish reading them. It was not that he could not understand them, but as he read, he carefully pondered over them. Every sentence seemed to contain a deep meaning.
Unfortunately, there was no way to break through to the great circle of Qi Training State in these hundred words.
Closing the handwritten letter, Chen Zong closed his eyes and began to think carefully.
"Strength flows through the entire body …"
"Reaching the top of the sky, reaching the bottom of the abyss …"
He repeated the words silently. There seemed to be a flash of inspiration, but it was as if there was not enough opportunity for it to be complete.
After a long time, Chen Zong exhaled and opened his eyes. He felt a little regretful.
He still felt that something was missing. He could not truly comprehend the method to break through to the great circle of Qi Training State.
"No rush, there will always be a way," Chen Zong said to himself.
For three days in a row, Chen Zong had been cultivating. He had been cultivating martial arts, swordsmanship, and the Lonely Mountain Visualization Technique. Other than that, he had been comprehending the contents of the handwritten letter. His schedule was packed to the brim.
"Chen Zong, His Royal Highness the Second Prince is about to depart. Follow me to meet him now," Wang Ke said coldly as he walked in front of Chen Zong. He had an inexplicable hostility towards Chen Zong.
"Lead the way." Chen Zong said without any trace of politeness. His attitude made Wang Ke hate him, but he did not dare to do anything. He could only snort coldly, turn around, and stomp hard on the ground, as if he wanted to crush the hard ground.
Chen Zong did not care. His time and energy were very precious. He would not waste it on this kind of meaningless battle. If he was an enemy, he would kill him with the sword in his hand.
"I'm late, Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, please forgive me." Chen Zong smiled and cupped his hands. At the same time, he glanced over.
"You're not late." Seeing Chen Zong, Yuwen Yi smiled and was immediately surprised. "Brother Chen, besides being proficient in swordsmanship, you're also proficient in archery?"
Then he suddenly understood.
"Yes, yes. I heard that brother Chen used a strong bow to intimidate Hua Xie Ma Qian Li, and even saved Yuwen Ran and another person." The Second Prince Yuwen Yi smiled and said.
Besides the Second Prince Yuwen Yi, there were four other people. Two of them were geniuses recruited by the Second Prince. One of them was a genius on the Jiao Dragon List, with the fighting strength of an early five-star warrior. The other one was slightly older, over twenty-four years old, but his fighting strength was also extraordinary, reaching the peak of four-star, the same as Wang Ke.
The last two were middle-aged men, wearing light armor, with a long blade at their waist. Their appearance was very ordinary, but they looked very similar. They should be blood brothers. Their eyes were filled with a sharp light, and their bodies were surrounded by tyrannical aura fluctuations. They were True Martial Realm martial artists, but it was unknown what level of True Martial Realm they were.
As for Yuwen Yi, his fighting strength was not weak either. He had also reached the mid-stage of five-star.
There were a total of five important people who were going to the Chillywind Valley. Three of them had reached the five-star level, and two of them had reached the peak of the four-star level. This kind of lineup was unparalleled in other counties, and could only be gathered in the Kingdom.
As for the two warriors of the True Martial Realm, they were actually the Second Prince Yuwen Yi's bodyguards. They had reached the ninth level of the True Martial Realm, and their fighting strength was even more powerful.
The Chillywind Valley was located in a mountain to the west of the capital. The seven of them rode on the Red Scaled Dragon Horse. Chen Zong had two swords at his waist, and the Fierce Dragon Bow on his back. This was a gift from the Marquis Zheng Yuan.
The Fierce Dragon Bow was very powerful, and Chen Zong liked it very much.
Besides the Fierce Dragon Bow, there were also three Water Splitting Arrows and nine arrows made of godly iron.
After the Red Scaled Dragon Horse left the capital, it started to gallop, and quickly left the capital.
When it was tired, it would rest. When it was done, it would continue its journey. After seven days, they finally arrived outside the Chillywind Valley.
"Dong Ming, you stay here and guard the Red Scaled Dragon Horse." The Second Prince Yuwen Yi ordered, "Dong Wei, follow me into the Chillywind Valley."
"Yes." The two warriors of the True Martial Realm had three purposes. One was to protect the Second Prince on the journey. Two was to guard and feed the seven Red Scaled Dragon Horses. Three was to follow them into the Chillywind Valley to protect the Second Prince.
According to the rules of the Royal Family, the Princes' assessment missions had various restrictions. Depending on the assessment mission, the level of assistance would naturally be different.
Currently, the assistance could only be from the Training Realm. Warriors of the True Martial Realm were not allowed to help.
However, if there were warriors of the True Martial Realm accompanying them, they could protect their lives. However, during the assessment mission, the warriors of the True Martial Realm were not allowed to help. In short, the only purpose of the warriors of the True Martial Realm was to protect the Second Prince's life. That was all.
The six of them quickly walked forward, towards the entrance of the Chillywind Valley.
Whining sounds came from the Chillywind Valley and entered everyone's ears. It sounded like weeping and complaining, like the crying of ghosts. The timid people would be so scared that their hands and feet would tremble.
"Your Royal Highness, what are we going to do in the Chillywind Valley?" Chen Zong asked.
In the beginning, the Second Prince had only invited him to the Chillywind Valley to complete the assessment mission for the Princes. However, he did not specify what the mission was.
"We can talk about it now. This time, what we are going to do is to find the Chillywind Pearl in the Chillywind Valley." The Second Prince said seriously, "Legend has it that a long time ago, a great battle broke out here. Countless lives were lost and countless lives were lost. The collision of extraordinary forces split open a valley. Because too many people died in the valley, and because the ley lines were broken, Yin Qi permeated the valley. Over time, the Chillywind Valley was formed, and many Chillywind Corpses were born."
"There are strong and weak Chillywind Corpses. The weak ones are comparable to the late stage of the Training Realm. The strong Chillywind Corpses are said to have the strength of the True Martial Realm. They are very powerful."
"As for the Chillywind Pearl, it often appears in places with dense Yin Qi. It is also often guarded by strong Chillywind Corpses."
"Remember, do not be scratched or bitten by the Chillywind Corpses. Otherwise, you will be invaded by the corpse poison. If you are lucky, you will fall into a coma. If you are unlucky, you will be assimilated by the corpse poison and become a monster like the Chillywind Corpses." The Second Prince Yuwen Yi said seriously, "In addition, we are not the only ones entering the Chillywind Valley to find the Chillywind Pearl. There will be others. Our goal is to complete the mission. If we can avoid conflict, we will. However, if anyone dares to offend us, you do not have to be merciful."
The Second Prince had come to carry out the assessment mission. Of course, he would keep it a secret and not reveal his identity. If he encountered opponents of the Training Realm, Dong Wei would ignore them and let them deal with them. However, if he encountered opponents of the True Martial Realm, Dong Wei would not be a decoration.
It should be known that Dong Wei was a warrior of the Royal Family at the peak of the Lv 9 True Martial Realm. He practiced advanced cultivation methods and martial arts. His strength was many times stronger than that of an ordinary warrior at the peak of the Lv 9 True Martial Realm.
As they approached, the whining sound became clearer. Soon, they saw the entrance of the Chillywind Valley. It seemed to have been ruthlessly cut open by a giant knife. It could accommodate about three people at the same time.
