Report

This was the first time Wang Chong had experienced the World Binding Force, or rather, the repulsive force. It felt as though he was not tolerated by the entire world.

In front of that majestic power, Wang Chong could deeply feel how insignificant he was, and his heart palpitated.

In reality, it was not just him. Wang Chong believed that any warrior would be as insignificant as an ant in front of this torrent of heaven and earth.

On the collapsed bed, Wang Chong sat on the ground, panting heavily, sweat pouring down his forehead like rain.

"So this is the price of reincarnating, to become the enemy of the entire world. If not for the Stone of Destiny, I would have been crushed into powder long ago. "

Wang Chong closed his eyes, thinking silently, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.

At this moment, Wang Chong suddenly understood what kind of predicament reincarnating would face in this universe. Right now, the Stone of Destiny was his only hope.

The torrent of heaven and earth was endless, as though a flood was crashing down on him. However, the faint light emitted by the Stone of Destiny was like a shelter in the midst of a storm, helping him escape this crisis.

"The 20 Destiny Energy should have been used up by now. This is only the first wave! "

This thought flashed through Wang Chong's mind, and the next moment, Wang Chong saw the Stone of Destiny in his mind.

【Warning!】

【Destiny Energy remaining: 5 points!】

【Duration of the next World Binding Force, 3 months!】

【Destiny Energy required: 30 points!】

...

Looking at this string of information, Wang Chong laughed bitterly in his heart. It was exactly as he had expected. However, the next time, the amount of Destiny Energy required to resist the World Binding Force was not 25 points, but 30 points.

After sitting on the ground for a while, as his stamina recovered, a strange feeling slowly spread throughout his body. A power that he had never felt before was suddenly released from his hair follicles, skin, and muscles all over his body.

Wang Chong felt that while his stamina was recovering, his strength was also increasing. Not only that, this energy seemed to have a very strong penetrative ability. It began to penetrate through his skin and muscles, seeping into his bones and marrow, and began to automatically strengthen Wang Chong's bones, meridians, and even muscles.

"Hmm? This is … "

Wang Chong's heart skipped a beat as he suddenly came to a realization. Wasn't this what the Stone of Fate had mentioned before? Every time he resisted the World Restriction, his body would be strengthened?

Thinking of this, Wang Chong was overjoyed. He jumped up from the ground and quickly executed the Astral Steps, practicing the Heavy Punch method. Bang, bang, bang! Strong winds blew in all directions in the room, and waves of air burst out like a tidal wave.

As expected! When Wang Chong practiced the Heavy Punch, the speed at which the dissipating energy permeated his body increased tremendously. Under the transformation of this energy, Wang Chong could feel the bones in his body absorbing nutrients from his blood, rapidly becoming denser.

"As expected, could this energy be the dissipating energy of the world?"

Wang Chong was delighted. Recalling the surging energy of the world, could it be that when the faint yellow barrier formed by the energy of destiny broke apart, it captured some of the dissipating energy of the world and sent it back to him?

"Now that I think about it, the World Restriction isn't that bad after all!"

Wang Chong chuckled. Becoming one with his mind, he hastened the cultivation of the Heavy Punch.

Time slowly passed, and it was hard to tell how many days had passed. Kacha! Wang Chong suddenly heard the crisp sound of his bones exploding. Somehow, he seemed to have broken through a bottleneck, and Wang Chong felt his strength rising by a large margin in an instant.

"Panther Bone 2-dan!"

Wang Chong was overjoyed. He felt refreshed. Not only had he recovered to his peak, he had also recovered from the internal injuries he suffered from the Eastern Islands female assassin's attack. Furthermore, his strength had also risen by a notch.

With the success of 'Panther Bone 2-dan', it was only a matter of time before he reached Origin Energy Tier 6!

Wang Chong was overjoyed, and he only fell into a deep sleep when it was nearing dawn.



"Mother, I'm back!"

The next day, just as he was having his meal, the sound of bouncing could be heard. Peng! The door was pushed open, and his little sister barged in. Her hair was tied into a ponytail, and she was munching on a fragrant chicken drumstick. It was hard to tell if she had brought it from her cousin's place.

"Brother, I heard that some baddies came to our house last night. Where are they? Where are they? Let me give them a good beating. "

As the Wang Family's little sister spoke, she looked around furiously. Then, she raised her fair and tender fists, as though flaunting her prowess.

"You spend all day at cousin's place, and you still have the time to come back? By the time you return, they would have already left! "

Wang Chong glanced at his little sister and said impatiently.

After not seeing her for a few days, his little sister seemed to have changed completely. She had a rattle-drum by her waist, a pair of embroidered shoes with silver bells on them, and a kite on her back.

— — It seemed like his little sister hadn't been slacking off when he gave her the hundred gold taels. She had taken the money and spent it 'freely' for a period of time.

Hearing Wang Chong's words, Wang Xiao Yao stuck out her tongue and hurriedly ran to her mother's side. Her eyes darted around the room, and soon, she picked up a pair of chopsticks, stabbed a roasted goose on the table, and began munching on it.

"Gluttonous and playful! You haven't changed at all! "

Wang Chong shook his head. Looking at his little sister, he felt helpless.

Given his little sister's talent, if she had spent some time on cultivation, how could she have reached such a low cultivation realm? There probably wouldn't be many people in the capital who could match her.

However, his little sister was only ten years old, and she was a gluttonous and playful person. Wang Chong couldn't change that.

His little sister didn't return alone. Together with her were a few experts sent over by Cousin Wang Zhu Yan. They were the true experts of his big uncle's residence.

Wang Chong arranged for them to stay near his mother's residence and guarded her day and night.

"Right, little brother!"

After the meal, his little sister suddenly beamed with joy. Tilting her head, she fawned:

"I heard from Shen Hai and Meng Long that you earned 600,000 gold taels. Let me take a look, let me take a look …"

As she spoke, she shook Wang Chong's arm with a pleading look on her face.

"I knew that you would do this."

Wang Chong chuckled, but he didn't reject her. Instead, a doting look appeared on his face:

"Let's go, I'll bring you to take a look."

In the Wang Family's storehouse, Wang Xiao Yao's eyes were filled with stars upon seeing the mountain of gold.

"Waa, little brother, we're rich!"

The Wang Family's little sister pounced over excitedly and started rolling on the pile of gold. As she rolled, she exclaimed excitedly:

"So much gold, so much gold … How much delicious food can we buy with this!"

Everything was fine at the start, but at the end, it was all about food!

… …

Just as the matter of the Wang Clan being assaulted was causing a huge commotion, a shocking matter occurred in the royal court:

The Consort Tai Zhen Incident!

The Son of Heaven, the Holy Emperor, was determined to bring Consort Tai Zhen into the royal palace. In the royal court, the King of Song, King Qi, the Yao Clan, the Wang Clan, the Duke of Su, the Duke of Wei, the Duke of Zhao … All of the civil and military officials were embroiled in the matter.

This included Wang Chong's big uncle, Wang Gen.

The entire royal court was torn into two. Half supported the matter while the other half opposed it! This became the most sensational matter in the past few decades of the Tang dynasty.

Regardless of whether they supported the matter or opposed it, their emotions were extremely intense.

As a result, the atmosphere in the royal court became extremely tense. In fact, there were even two physicians who fought in the royal court, resulting in them bleeding profusely. In the end, both of them were imprisoned in the imperial prison of the Court of Judicial Review.

At the same time, the entire Central Plains was in a state of turmoil. Everyone's gaze was drawn to the royal court.

Wang Chong received the news while he was cultivating at home. Upon hearing the news from the royal court, Wang Chong fell silent for a very long time.

"To think that such a matter would still happen!"

Wang Chong raised his head. The sky was overcast, and there was an indescribable pressure in it.

Looking at the gloomy sky, a hint of worry flashed across Wang Chong's eyes.

There were many things in this world that were different from what he remembered. But regardless of which time-space continuum he was in, the death of Consort Wu in 740, and the wise and formidable Holy Emperor in the history of the Tang dynasty ordered Consort Shou to become a nun, as well as the 'Consort Tai Zhen Incident' that brought her into the royal palace, all of this had a significant impact on the world.

No one could understand why the wise and valiant Sage Emperor, who had spent the first half of his life forging ahead, the greatest person in Great Tang, even the Central Plains, would have such a drastic change in his personality, going against the principles of morality and bringing Consort Taizhen into the palace.

Thinking about it carefully, even now, Wang Chong still couldn't understand why. This was definitely not the actions of a Holy Emperor, but the impact and consequences of this incident were extremely far-reaching.

The Wang Clan's backer, His Highness the King of Song, who wielded immense authority and influence in the royal court, had displeased the Holy Emperor due to his vehement opposition to this matter. As a result, he fell out of favor and was expelled from the royal court.

Losing the backing of the King of Song was a heavy blow to the Wang Clan. What was even worse was that the Wang Clan had also chosen the wrong side in this political storm.

Everyone had underestimated the Holy Emperor's determination in this matter!

And the price of the Wang Clan's underestimation was that they had suffered a huge blow in this matter. Since then, they had never recovered. Be it in terms of power, status, or influence, they had all been greatly weakened, and they had been completely eliminated from the first echelon of the Tang dynasty.

In a political battle, one wrong step and one wrong side would have such a cruel price to pay!

For the Wang Clan, this was a huge crisis.

However, in the entire Wang Clan, apart from Wang Chong, no one knew the future direction of the Wang Clan!

Although he understood, Wang Chong knew that there was nothing he could do now.

The impact of this storm in the royal court was unprecedented, and it was not something that a fifteen-year-old child like him could decide.

"I can only wait until grandpa's birthday. At that time, the King of Song will definitely go to grandpa and ask for his support."

In the royal court of the Tang dynasty, Old Master Yao of the Yao Clan and his own grandfather were two obstacles that could not be avoided. In any major event in the royal court, their opinions had a decisive effect.

Wang Chong knew that the King of Song would definitely ask for his grandfather's opinion during the birthday celebration.

Suppressing his thoughts, Wang Chong continued to practice.
